A Remotely Delivered Exercise-Based Rehabilitation Program for Patients with Persistent Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (EX-CIPN): A Phase I Feasibility Trial

Background: Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) affects two-thirds of patients who receive neurotoxic chemotherapy. In almost half of these patients, CIPN is persistent, with limited treatment options. Exercise-based rehabilitation shows promising results in improvi...

Prioritizing Systemic Risk Factors of Substandard Construction in South Korean Apartment Projects Using a Modified Delphi and Risk-Matrix Approach

Recent large-scale collapses at South Korean apartment construction sites have highlighted the need to examine technical and systemic risk factors in an integrated manner. This study identifies and prioritizes expert-perceived systemic risk factors associated with substandard con...

Developing a knowledge management culture to stimulate organizational learning in digital environment: the effect of digital leadership and information technology

Purpose This study aims to explore how digital leadership (DL) and information technology (IT) influence knowledge management (KM) to the achievement of organizational learning (OL). In addition, it investigates the mediating effect of KM in the relationships between DL and OL, a...

Association of Estimated Arterial Stiffness with Collateral Status and Functional Outcome after Endovascular Thrombectomy: A Secondary Analysis of the OPTIMAL-BP Trial

PURPOSE: Estimated pulse wave velocity (ePWV) is a surrogate of arterial stiffness that may influence stroke outcomes and potentially affect collateral circulation. We examined the association of ePWV with collateral status and 3-month functional outcome after successful endovasc...

Claims-Based Diagnostic Registration Patterns and Clinical Burden of Selected Common Aneuploidies in Korean Children: A Nationwide HIRA Study (2009–2023)

Background: Selected common aneuploidies, including Down, Edwards, Patau, Turner, and Klinefelter syndromes, are important causes of congenital anomalies and diverse clinical morbidities. However, nationwide evidence regarding the recent diagnostic registration patterns, clinical...

A meta-analysis of the effects of job satisfaction on organizational outcomes: Evidence from the Korean National Police

This study conducted a meta-analysis to examine the associations between job satisfaction and key organizational outcome variables—organizational commitment, turnover intention, organizational citizenship behavior, and police performance—within the context of the Korean National...

Lipid Burden and Efficacy of Preventive PCI of Vulnerable Atherosclerotic Coronary Plaques: Post Hoc Analysis From the PREVENT Trial

BACKGROUND: Preventive percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of non–flow-limiting lesions (fractional flow reserve >0.80) that are high-risk plaques has emerged as a potential strategy to reduce cardiac events. However, identifying which lesions derive the greatest benefit fro...

Nighttime CO₂ Accumulation and the Limits of Satisfaction-based Screening in Energy-Vulnerable Older-Adult Dwellings During Summer

Abstract Under-ventilation and a mismatch between occupant perception and measured indoor air quality are documented in low-income housing, but evidence for hot-humid, cooling-constrained summers in energy-vulnerable older-adult dwellings is limited, and recent Korean measured ai...

Pathological calcium overload impairs skeletal muscle regeneration through sustained NFAT-dependent proliferative signaling

Abstract Skeletal muscle regeneration requires coordinated myoblast proliferation and differentiation. Calcium dysregulation is commonly observed in aging and disease-associated muscle weakness; however, its impact on myogenic progression remains unclear. In this study, we invest...

2025 Korean Guidelines for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation: Part 9. Neonatal resuscitation: a secondary publication

The 2025 Korean Guidelines for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation provide updated, evidence-based recommendations to optimize the transition from intrauterine to extrauterine life. While approximately 85% of term newborns initiate spontaneous breathing independently, timely interventi...

Machine learning prediction of periodontitis across age strata: using data from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examintaion Survey

Objectives: Most existing machine learning (ML) models are trained on mixed-age samples and rarely examine whether performance varies across life stages.We compared age-stratified ML models for predicting periodontitis in a nationally representative sample of Korean adult populat...

Simultaneous Quantification of Ketamine and Its Metabolites in Rat Plasma Using LC-MS/MS: Method Development, Validation, and Application

Ketamine (KE) is a clinically important anesthetic and toxicologically relevant compound that undergoes sequential metabolism to norketamine (NKE) and hydroxynorketamine (HNKE).Because parent-only measurements are insufficient to characterize KE disposition, the simultaneous quan...

Lignin-Assisted Dispersion and Iohexol Retention in Lead-Free Bi2O3/Iohexol-Loaded Waterborne Polyurethane Sheets for Diagnostic X-Ray Attenuation

Conventional lead-based protective materials used in diagnostic radiology involve some notable limitations in terms of high weight, toxicity, and environmental concerns associated with their disposal. Lead-free polymer shielding materials incorporating high-atomic-number fillers...

Image-guided programming improves motor control in chronic subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation in Parkinson's disease: A prospective study

Background Image-guided programming (IGP) enables optimization and personalization of deep brain stimulation (DBS) for patients with Parkinson's disease. Although its role in initial programming has been examined, evidence for its value in chronic stimulation remains limited. We...

Contrasting Prognostic Value of Discordance Between Resting Distal-to-Aortic Coronary Pressure Ratio and Fractional Flow Reserve in Coronary Artery Disease

BACKGROUND: Discordance between nonhyperemic pressure ratios and fractional flow reserve (FFR), observed in up to 20% of cases, complicates clinical decision-making for coronary revascularization and warrants further investigation of its clinical implications. This study aimed to...

Health Behavior Patterns Associated With Cardiovascular Risk in Korean College Students

BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular diseases are a leading cause of mortality, with a rising prevalence in younger populations. OBJECTIVE: In this study, we aimed to identify health behavior patterns among Korean college students using latent class analysis and examine associations with c...

Prognostic implications of the duration of continuous kidney replacement therapy in 3-month survivors of acute kidney injury: findings from the LINKA cohort

The duration of continuous kidney replacement therapy (CKRT) represents a complex clinical surrogate reflecting the severity of systemic illness, the rate of metabolic recovery, and clinical decision-making regarding treatment discontinuation. The effect of CKRT duration on long-...

Design and experimental evaluation of a multi-winding gas-spring gravity compensation mechanism for high-torque sit-to-stand assistance

Conventional gravity compensators capable of handling large loads are often bulky and require hardware modifications for different payload ranges. This study presents a multi-winding gas-spring gravity compensation mechanism (MW-GCM) for high-torque sit-to-stand assistance and ev...
