Effects and Safety of Grape Skin Enzyme Fermentation Extract for Eye Fatigue and Dry Eye Symptoms: An Exploratory Randomized Controlled Trial

Dry eye disease impairs visual function and quality of life. This trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of grape skin enzyme fermentation extract (KL-GEFE; Nunaezone, Kitto Life Co., Ltd., Pyeongtaek, Republic of Korea), a grape skin enzyme fermentation extract, in adults with...

Personalized deep learning for short-term forecasting of impending atrial fibrillation from continuous wearable ECG signals

Abstract Continuous wearable electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring is increasingly used for ambulatory arrhythmia surveillance, yet forecasting impending atrial fibrillation (AF) remains challenging because of inter-patient ECG variability. We investigated whether personalizing a gl...

Trajectories of health-related quality of life and associated factors after percutaneous coronary intervention

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a leading cause of morbidity worldwide. The first six months after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are a recovery period during which health-related quality of life (HRQoL) varies substantially across patients. We examined latent trajecto...

Machine Learning Model for Contemporary Dry Eye Disease Risk Factors: A Study on the Integrated Approach of Logistic Regression Model and Statistical Verification

Dry eye disease is rapidly spreading in modern society due to increased use of digital devices and environmental factors, and it is an important public health issue that can lead to corneal damage and permanent vision loss if not properly managed. As various factors such as lifes...

AI-Integrated Model for Addressing Blind Spots in Mental Health Services: Predicting Insomnia and Depression Comorbidity Using Logistic Regression

Chronic insomnia disorder and major depressive disorder exhibit a high rate of comorbidity. When these conditions co-occur, they are associated with poor treatment prognosis and exacerbated symptoms, highlighting the critical need for early screening. Existing clinical diagnostic...

Cone-Beam Computed Tomography-Based Evaluation of Immediate Maxillary Transverse Changes Following Invisalign Palatal Expander in Mixed-Dentition Patients: A Three-Case Series

Maxillary constriction in the mixed dentition is commonly associated with a narrow arch form, space deficiency, and impaired eruption guidance. Although the use of the Invisalign Palatal Expander has increased in growing patients, case-based evidence regarding its immediate skele...

Doxorubicin-Incorporated Nanoparticles Composed of Ce6-Conjugated Hyaluronic Acid-b-poly(ethylene glycol) Copolymer for Overcoming Doxorubicin Resistance of Breast Cancer Cells

Oxidative stress in the tumor microenvironment, which is its own intrinsic property, is frequently utilized to deal with the drug-targeting issue in the nanoparticle drug delivery system. For this purpose, reactive oxygen species (ROS)-sensitive nanoparticles encapsulating doxoru...
