| 1 | Diagnostic value of PIVKA-Ⅱ and alpha-fetoprotein in hepatitis B virus-associated hepatocellular carcinoma显示文摘AIM: To determine the cutoff values and to compare the diagnostic role of alpha-fetoprotein(AFP) and prothrombin induced by vitamin K absence-Ⅱ(PIVKA-Ⅱ) in chronic hepatitis B(CHB).METHODS: A total of 1255 patients with CHB, including 157 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC), 879 with non-cirrhotic CHB and 219 with cirrhosis without HCC, were retrospectively enrolled. The areas under the receiver operating characteristic(AUROC) curves of PIVKA-Ⅱ, AFP and their combination were calculated and compared.RESULTS: The optimal cutoff values for PIVKA-Ⅱ and AFP were 40 m AU/m L and 10 ng/m L, respectively, for the differentiation of HCC from nonmalignant CHB. The sensitivity and specificity were 73.9% and 89.7%, respectively, for PIVKA-Ⅱ and 67.5% and 90.3% for AFP, respectively. The AUROC curves of both PIVKA-Ⅱ and AFP were not significantly different(0.854 vs 0.853, P = 0.965) for the differentiation of HCC from nonmalignant CHB, whereas the AUROC of PIVKA-Ⅱ was significantly better than that of AFP in patients with cirrhosis(0.870 vs 0.812, P = 0.042). When PIVKA-Ⅱ and AFP were combined, the diagnostic power improved significantly compared to either AFP or PIVKA-Ⅱ alone for the differentiation of HCC from nonmalignant CHB(P < 0.05), especially when cirrhosis was present(P < 0.05).CONCLUSION: Serum PIVKA-Ⅱ might be a better tumor marker than AFP, and its combination with AFP may enhance the early detection of HCC in patients with CHB. | Seung In Seo Hyoung Su Kim Won Jin Kim Woon Geon Shin Doo Jin Kim Kyung Ho Kim Myoung Kuk Jang Jin Heon Lee Joo Seop Kim Hak Yang Kim Dong Joon Kim Myung Seok Lee Choong Kee Park | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,13: | 60 |
| 2 | Management of entecavir-resistant chronic hepatitis B with adefovir-based combination therapies显示文摘AIM: To evaluate the long-term efficacy adefovir(ADV)-based combination therapies in entecavir(ETV)-resistant chronic hepatitis B(CHB) patients. METHODS: F i fty CHB pat ient s wi t h genotypic resistance to ETV at 13 medical centers in South Korea were included for the analysis. All the patients received rescue therapy with the combination of ADV plus ETV(ADV/ETV,n = 23) or ADV plus lamivudine(LMV)(ADV/LMV,n = 27) for more than 12 mo. Patients were monitored at least every 3-4 mo during ADV-based combination therapy by clinical examination as well as biochemical and virological assessments. Hepatitis B virus(HBV) DNA levels were measured by realtime PCR and logarithmically transformed for analysis. Cumulative rates of virologic response(VR; HBV DNA < 20 IU/m L) were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method,and the difference was determined by a logrank test. Multivariate logistic regression and Cox proportional hazards models were used to identify independent risk factors significantly associated with short-term and long-term VR,respectively.RESULTS: Baseline median HBV DNA levels were 5.53(2.81-7.63) log10 IU/m L. The most commonly observed ETV genotypic mutation sites were rt184 and rt202. Patients were treated for a median of 27(12-45) mo. Overall,cumulative VR rates at 6,12,24,and 36 mo were 26%,36%,45%,and 68%,respectively. Patients treated with the ADV/ETV combination showed higher cumulative VR rates(35%,43%,65%,and 76%,respectively) than those with the ADV/LAM combination(18%,30%,30%,and 62%,respectively; P = 0.048). In the multivariate analysis,low baseline HBV DNA levels(< 5.2 log10 IU/m L) and initial virologic response at 3 mo(IVR-3; HBV DNA < 3.3 log10 IU/m L after 3 mo) were independent predictive factors for VR. Patients with favorable predictors achieved cumulative VR rates up to 90% at 36 mo. During the same period,the cumulative incidence of virologic breakthrough was as low as 6% in patients with the both favorable predictors.CONCLUSION: If tenofovir is not available,ADV/ETV combination could be considered in ETV-resistant patients with low HBV DNA titers,and may becontinued if IVR-3 is achieved. | Hyoung Su Kim Hyung Joon Yim Myoung Kuk Jang Ji Won Park Sang Jun Suh Yeon Seok Seo Ji Hoon Kim Bo Hyun Kim Sang Jong Park Sae Hwan Lee Sang Gyune Kim Young Seok Kim Jung Il Lee Jin-Woo Lee In Hee Kim Tae Yeob Kim Jin-Wook Kim Sook-Hyang Jeong Young Kul Jung Hana Park Seong Gyu Hwang | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,38: | 13 |
| 3 | Retrospective analysis of extra-gastrointestinal stromal tumors显示文摘AIM:To investigate the clinicopathologic features of patients with extra-gastrointestinal stromal tumors(EGISTs)in South Korea.METHODS:A total of 51 patients with an EGIST were identified.The clinicopathologic features,including sex,age,location,tumor size,histology,mitotic rate,immunohistochemical features,genetic status and survival data,were analyzed.RESULTS:The median age was 55 years(range:29-80years),and male:female ratio was 1:1.04.The most common site was in the mesentery(n=15)followed by the retroperitoneum(n=13)and omentum(n=8).The median tumor size was 9.0 cm(range:2.6-30.0cm)and the median mitotic rate was 5.0/50HPF.(1/50-185/50).KIT was analyzed in 16,which revealed 10cases with wild-type KIT and 6 cases with an exon 11mutation.Among 51 patients,31 patients had undergone surgery,and 10 had unresectable disease and had taken palliative imatinib,which resulted in 22.7 mo of progression-free survival.Of the patients who had undergone surgery,18 did not take adjuvant imatinib,and 8 of these were categorized as'high risk'according to the risk criteria.However,the relapse-free survival was not different(P=0.157)between two groups.CONCLUSION:Because the biologic behaviors of GISTs differ according to the location of the tumor,a more stratified strategy is required for managing EGISTs including incorporation of molecular features. | Jun Ho Yi Byeong-Bae Park Jung Hun Kang In Gyu Hwang Dong Bok Shin Sun Jin Sym Hee Kyung Ahn Soon Il Lee Do Hyoung Lim Keon Woo Park Young-Woong Won Sung Hee Lim Se Hoon Park | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,6: | 9 |
| 4 | Propulsive Velocity Optimization of 3-Joint Fish Robot Using Genetic-Hill Climbing Algorithm显示文摘Underwater robot is a new research field which is emerging quickly in recent years.Previous researches in this field focuson Remotely Operated Vehicles(ROVs),Autonomous Underwater Vehicles(AUVs),underwater manipulators,etc.Fish robot,which is a new type of underwater biomimetic robot,has attracted great attention because of its silence in moving and energyefficiency compared to conventional propeller-oriented propulsive mechanism.However,most of researches on fish robots have been carried out via empirical or experimental approaches,not based ondynamic optimality.In this paper,we proposed an analytical optimization approach which can guarantee the maximum propulsivevelocity of fish robot in the given parametric conditions.First,a dynamic model of 3-joint(4 links)carangiform fishrobot is derived,using which the influences of parameters of input torque functions,such as amplitude,frequency and phasedifference,on its velocity are investigated by simulation.Second,the maximum velocity of the fish robot is optimized bycombining Genetic Algorithm(GA)and Hill Climbing Algorithm(HCA).GA is used to generate the initial optimal parametersof the input functions of the system.Then,the parameters are optimized again by HCA to ensure that the final set of parametersis the'near'global optimization.Finally,both simulations and primitive experiments are carried out to prove the feasibility ofthe proposed method. | Tuong Quan Vo Hyoung Seok Kim Byung Ryong Lee | 2009 | Journal of Bionic Engineering2009,6,4: | 6 |

| 6 | Differentiation of acute and chronic hepatitis B in IgM antiHBc positive patients显示文摘AIM: To identify the factors that differentiate acute hepatitis B(AHB) from chronic hepatitis B with acute exacerbation(CHB-AE).METHODS: From 2004 to 2013, a total of 82 patients(male n = 52, 63.4%; female n = 30, 36.6%) with clinical features of acute hepatitis with immunoglobulin M antibodies to the hepatitis B core antigen(Ig M antiHBc) were retrospectively enrolled and divided into two groups; AHB(n = 53) and CHB-AE(n = 29). The AHB group was defined as patients without a history of hepatitis B virus(HBV) infection before the episode and with loss of hepatitis B surface antigen within 6 mo after onset of acute hepatitis. Biochemical and virological profiles and the sample/cutoff(S/CO) ratio of Ig M anti-HBc were compared to determine the differential diagnostic factors.RESULTS: The multivariate analysis demonstrated that, the S/CO ratio of Ig M anti-HBc and HBV DNA levels were meaningful factors. The S/CO ratio of Ig M anti-HBc was significantly higher in the AHB group, while the HBV DNA level was significantly higher in the CHB-AE group. The optimal cutoff values of Ig M anti-HBc and HBV DNA levels for differentiating the two conditions were 8 S/CO ratio and 5.5 log10 IU/m L, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity were 96.2% and 89.7% for the S/CO ratio of Ig M anti-HBc and 81.1% and 72.4% for HBV DNA levels, respectively. The area under receiver operating characteristic curves of both the S/CO ratio of Ig M anti-HBc and HBV DNA levels were not significantly different(0.933 vs 0.844, P = 0.105). When combining Ig M anti-HBc and HBV DNA, the diagnostic power significantly improved compared to HBV DNA alone(P = 0.0056). The combination of these factors yielded a sensitivity and specificity of 98.1% and 86.2%, respectively.CONCLUSION: The combination of the S/CO ratio of Ig M anti-HBc and HBV DNA levels was a useful tool for differentiating AHB from CHB-AE in patients with positive Ig M anti-HBc. | Ji Won Park Kyeong Min Kwak Sung Eun Kim Myoung Kuk Jang Dong Joon Kim Myung Seok Lee Hyoung Su Kim Choong Kee Park | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,13: | 4 |
| 7 | Clinical course of ulcerative colitis patients who develop acute pancreatitis显示文摘AIM To investigate the clinical course of ulcerative colitis(UC)patients who develop acute pancreatitis.METHODS We analyzed 3307 UC patients from the inflammatory bowel disease registry at Asan Medical Center from June 1989 to May 2015.The clinical course of UC patients who developed acute pancreatitis was compared with that of non-pancreatitis UC patients.RESULTS Among 51 patients who developed acute pancreatitis,13(0.40%)had autoimmune,10(0.30%)had aminosalicylate-induced,and 13(1.73%)had thiopurineinduced pancreatitis.All 13 patients with autoimmune pancreatitis(AIP)had type 2 AIP.Two(15.4%)patients had pre-existing AIP,and three(23.1%)patients developed AIP and UC simultaneously.Compared to non-pancreatitis patients,AIP patients had UC diagnosed at a significantly younger age(median,22.9 years vs 36.4 years;P=0.001).AIP and aminosalicylate-induced pancreatitis patients had more extensive UC compared to non-pancreatitis patients.All patients with pancreatitis recovered uneventfully,and there were no recurrences.Biologics were used more frequently in aminosalicylate-and thiopurine-induced pancreatitis patients compared to non-pancreatitis patients[adjusted OR(95%CI),5.16(1.42-18.67)and6.90(1.83-25.98),respectively].Biologic utilization rate was similar among AIP and non-pancreatitis patients[OR(95%CI),0.84(0.11-6.66)].Colectomy rates for autoimmune,aminosalicylate-induced,and thiopurineinduced pancreatitis,and for non-pancreatitis patients were 15.4%(2/13),20%(2/10),15.4%(2/13),and7.3%(239/3256),respectively;the rates were not significantly different after adjusting for baseline disease extent.CONCLUSION Pancreatitis patients show a non-significant increase in colectomy,after adjusting for baseline disease extent. | Jong Wook Kim Sung Wook Hwang Sang Hyoung Park Tae Jun Song Myung-Hwan Kim Ho-Su Lee Byong Duk Ye Dong-Hoon Yang Kyung-Jo Kim Jeong-Sik Byeon Seung-Jae Myung Suk-Kyun Yang | 2017 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2017,23,19: | 3 |
| 8 | Temporal trends in the misdiagnosis rates between Crohn's disease and intestinal tuberculosis显示文摘AIM To investigate the temporal trends in the misdiagnosis rate between Crohn's disease(CD) and intestinal tuberculosis(ITB) in South Korea. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients managed for CD or ITB at Asan Medical Center, a tertiary referral hospital, Seoul, Korea between 1996 and 2014. The temporal trends in the misdiagnosis rates between the two diseases were analyzed. The demographic and clinical characteristics were compared between CD patients who were initially misdiagnosed as ITB(final CD group) and vice versa(final ITB group). Final diagnostic criteria for ITB and medication for CD before definite diagnosis of TB were also analyzed in final ITB group.RESULTS In total, 2760 patients were managed for CD and 772 patients for ITB between 1996 and 2014. As well, 494 of the 2760 CD patients(17.9%) were initially misdiagnosed as ITB and 83 of the 772 ITB patients(10.8%) as CD. The temporal trend in misdiagnosing CD as ITB showed a decrease(OR = 0.89, 95%CI: 0.87-0.91, P < 0.001), whereas the temporal trend in misdiagnosing ITB as CD showed an increase(OR = 1.06, 95%CI: 1.01-1.11, P = 0.013). Age at diagnosis, presenting symptoms, and proportion of patients with active/past perianal fistula and active/inactive pulmonary tuberculosis(TB) were significantly different between final CD group and final ITB group. Forty patients(48.2%) in final ITB group were diagnosed by favorable response to empirical anti-TB treatment. Seventeen patients(20.5%) in final ITB group had inappropriately received corticosteroids and/or thiopurines due to misdiagnosis as CD. However, there were no mortalities in both groups. CONCLUSION Cases of CD misdiagnosed as ITB have been decreasing, whereas cases of ITB misdiagnosed as CD have been increasing over the past two decades. | Hyungil Seo Seohyun Lee Hoonsub So Donghoi Kim Seon-Ok Kim Jae Seung Soh Jung Ho Bae Sun-Ho Lee Sung Wook Hwang Sang Hyoung Park Dong-Hoon Yang Kyung-Jo Kim Jeong-Sik Byeon Seung-Jae Myung Suk-Kyun Yang Byong Duk Ye | 2017 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2017,23,34: | 3 |
| 9 | The change of anterior segment parameters after cataract surgery in normal-tension glaucoma显示文摘AIM:To investigate the change of anterior chamber angle morphology and intraocular pressure(IOP) reduction after cataract surgery in patients with normal-tension glaucoma(NTG) using swept-source optical coherence tomography(SS-OCT).METHODS:This prospective,comparative,observational study recruited patients into two groups. Group 1 was the control group including normal subjects except those with cataracts(cataract group,n=67 eyes of 67 patients),and group 2 was NTG group including patients who were diagnosed with NTG and cataracts(n=43 eyes of 43 patients),which were treated with phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation. Before surgery,and at postoperative 1 and 6mo,anterior chamber angles were evaluated by SS-OCT under dark conditions using threedimensional angle analysis scan protocol. Angle opening distance(AOD),angle recess area(ARA),and trabeculariris surface area(TISA) at four quadrants(temporal,nasal,superior,and inferior) were calculated automatically by SS-OCT,after the observer marked scleral spurs.RESULTS: A total of 106 patients(54 males and 52 females) were enrolled in the study. Angle parameters,AOD,ARA,and TISA were increased after surgery in both groups. However,changes of angle parameters were only significant in group 2.In group 2,preoperative IOP was 13.2±2.9 mm Hg,and postoperative IOP at 1 and 6mo were 10.5±3.0 and 10.7±2.8 mm Hg,respectively. In group 1,preoperative IOP was 12.4±2.8 mm Hg,and postoperative IOP at 1 and 6mo were 11.6±2.5 and 12.0±2.8 mm Hg,respectively. After cataract surgery,angle parameters changed significantly while IOP significantly reduced and was maintained in group 2(P<0.001). The changes in angle parameters(ΔAOD500,ΔTISA500 at temporal; ΔAOD500,ΔARA500 at nasal) were linearly correlated with postoperative IOP changes.CONCLUSION: Cataract surgery may have improved anterior chamber angle parameters and decreased IOP in | Wonseok Lee Hyoung Won Bae Chart Yun Kim Gong Je Seong | 2017 | International Journal of Ophthalmology(English edition)2017,10,8: | 3 |
| 10 | Risk factors for postoperative recurrence after primary bowel resection in patients with Crohn's disease显示文摘AIM To evaluate the risk factors for postoperative recurrence after primary bowel resection in a cohort of Korean Crohn's disease(CD) patients.METHODS This study included 260 patients with no history of previous bowel surgery who underwent primary surgery for CD between January 2000 and December 2010 at Asan Medical Center(Seoul, South Korea). The median follow-up period was 101 mo.RESULTS During the follow-up period, 66 patients(25.4%) underwent a second operation for disease recurrence.At 1, 5 and 10 years after the first operation, the cumulative rate of surgical recurrence was 1.1%, 8.3% and 35.9% and clinical recurrence occurred in 1.2%, 23.6% and 68.1%, respectively. In multivariate analysis, undergoing an emergency operation was a significant risk factor for surgical recurrence-free survival(SRFS) [HR = 2.431, 95%CI: 1.394-4.240, P = 0.002], as were the presence of perianal disease after the first operation(HR = 1.715, 95%CI: 1.005-2.926, P = 0.048) and history of smoking(HR = 1.798, 95%CI: 1.088-2.969, P = 0.022). The postoperative use of antitumor necrosis factor(TNF) agents reduced SRFS risk(HR = 0.521, 95%CI: 0.300-0.904, P = 0.02).CONCLUSION History of smoking, postoperative perianal disease and undergoing an emergency operation were independent risk factors for surgical recurrence. Using anti-TNF agents may reduce surgical recurrence. | Kwan Mo Yang Chang Sik Yu Jong Lyul Lee Chan Wook Kim Yong Sik Yoon In Ja Park Seok-Byung Lim Sang Hyoung Park Byong Duk Ye Suk-Kyun Yang Jin Cheon Kim | 2017 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2017,23,38: | 3 |

| 12 | Atypical onset of bicalutamide-induced liver injury显示文摘Anti-androgen therapy is the leading treatment for advanced prostate cancer and is commonly used for neoadjuvant or adjuvant treatment. Bicalutamide is a non-steroidal anti-androgen, used during the initiation of androgen deprivation therapy along with a luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone agonist to reduce the symptoms of tumor-related flares in patients with advanced prostate cancer. As side effects, bicalutamide can cause fatigue, gynecomastia, and decreased libido through competitive androgen receptor blockade. Additionally, although not as common, drug-induced liver injury has also been reported. Herein, we report a case of hepatotoxicity secondary to bicalutamide use. Typically, bicalutamideinduced hepatotoxicity develops after a few days; however, in this case, hepatic injury occurred 5 mo after treatment initiation. Based on this rare case of delayed liver injury, we recommend careful monitoring of liver function throughout bicalutamide treatment for prostate cancer. | Gee Young Yun Seok Hyun Kim Seok Won Kim Jong Seok Joo Ju Seok Kim Eaum Seok Lee Byung Seok Lee Sun Hyoung Kang Hee Seok Moon Jae Kyu Sung Heon Young Lee Kyung Hee Kim | 2016 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2016,22,15: | 3 |
| 13 | Evidence from a familial case suggests maternal inheritance of primary biliary cholangitis显示文摘Primary biliary cholangitis(PBC) is an idiopathic autoimmune liver disease characterized by chronic cholestasis and destruction of the intrahepatic bile ducts. Similar to other autoimmune diseases, the pathogenesis of PBC is considered to be a complex etiologic phenomenon involving the interaction of genetic and environmental factors. Although a number of common variants associated with PBC have been reported from genome-wide association studies, a precise genetic mechanism underlying PBC has yet to be identified. Here, we describe a family with four sisters who were diagnosed with PBC. After the diagnosis of the index patient who was in an advanced stage of PBC, one sister presented with acute hepatitis, and two sisters were subsequently diagnosed with PBC. Notably, one half-sister with a different mother exhibited no evidence of PBC following clinical investigation. Our report suggests the possibility of a maternal inheritance of PBC susceptibility. Moreover, judging from the highpenetrance of the disease observed in this family, we inferred that a pathogenic genetic variant might be the cause of PBC development. We describe a family that exhibited diverse clinical presentations of PBC that included asymptomatic stages with mildly increased liver enzyme levels and symptomatic stages with acute hepatitis or advanced liver fibrosis. Additional studies are needed to investigate the role of genetic factors in the pathogenesis of this rare autoimmune disease. | Saeam Shin In Ho Moh Young Sik Woo Sung Won Jung Jin Bae Kim Ji Won Park Ki Tae Suk Hyoung Su Kim Mineui Hong Sang Hoon Park Myung Seok Lee | 2017 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2017,23,39: | 3 |

| 15 | Endoscopic submucosal dissection of a large colonic lipoma:Report of two cases显示文摘A colonic lipoma is a very rare benign tumor that is usually asymptomatic and is found incidentally by colonoscopy.Patients with a large colonic lipoma may present with symptoms such as abdominal pain,bleeding,and colonic obstruction or intussusceptions.We report two patients with large colonic lipomas and symptoms.Standard endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD) was performed to remove the lipomas instead of conventional surgical bowel resection.No complications were observed during or after the procedure.The tumors were resected en bloc,and the patients were discharged 2 d after ESD with a regular diet.The results indicate that ESD can be applied as safe and effective treatment for a large colonic lipoma. | Jae Min Lee Jeong Ho Kim Myungsung Kim Jun Hyoung Kim Young Bae Lee Jae Hyuk Lee Che Wan Lim | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,10: | 2 |
| 16 | Sectoral changes of the peripapillary choroidal thickness in patients with unilateral branch retinal vein occlusion显示文摘AIM: To investigate sectoral changes in the mean peripapillary choroidal thickness(PCT) in patients with unilateral branch retinal vein occlusion(BRVO). METHODS: This retrospective, interventional study included 41 patients with acute, unilateral BRVO without macular edema. All patients completed at least a 6-month follow-up period. The PCT was measured at eight locations(temporal, superotemporal, superior, superonasal, nasal, inferonasal, inferior, and inferotemporal). In addition to calculating the average of all locations, the peripapillary choroidal area was divided into four sectors: superior(average of superotemporal PCT, superior PCT, and superonasal PCT), temporal, inferior(average of inferotemporal PCT, inferior PCT, and inferonasal PCT), and nasal. RESULTS: In the BRVO-affected eyes, the mean PCT was 177.7±69.8 μm(range, 70.1-396.0 μm) at baseline and 127.8±54.8 μm(range, 56.4-312.1 μm) at 6 mo(P<0.001). In the non-affected contralateral eyes, the mean PCT was 192.5±60.6 μm(range, 61.4-365.0 μm) at baseline and 165.9±61.1 μm(range, 56.8-326.8 μm) at 6 mo(P<0.001). In sectoral analysis, the mean PCT in each sector was significantly reduced in over 6 mo in the BRVO-affected eyes(all P<0.001). In the non-affected contralateral eyes, the mean PCT was not significantly changed in any sector over the 6-month follow-up period(superior sector, P=0.143; temporal sector, P=0.825; inferior sector, P=0.192; and nasal sector, P=0.599).CONCLUSION: Sectoral analysis shows that the mean PCTs in all sectors are reduced significantly over 6 mo in the BRVO-affected eyes, but not in the non-affected contralateral eyes. | Na Eun Lee Hae Min Kang Jeong Hoon Choi Hyoung Jun Koh Sung Chul Lee | 2019 | International Journal of Ophthalmology(English edition)2019,12,3: | 2 |
| 17 | Diffractive multifocal intraocular lens implantation in patients with monofocal intraocular lens in the contralateral eye显示文摘AIM:To evaluate clinical outcomes of unilateral implantation of a diffractive multifocal intraocular lens(IOL)in patients with contralateral monofocal IOL.METHODS:Twenty-two patients who already had implantation of a monofocal IOL in unilateral eye underwent implantation of a diffractive multifocal IOL in contralateral eye were enrolled.After 1,6,and 12 mo,uncorrected and distant corrected distant visual acuity(UCDVA and DCDVA),uncorrected and distant corrected intermediate-visual acuity(UCIVA and DCIVA),uncorrected and distant corrected near visual acuity(UCNVA and DCNVA),and contrast sensitivity were obtained.Halo/glare symptoms,spectacle dependence,and patient satisfaction were also evaluated.RESULTS:The mean age was 67.86±7.25 y and the average interval between two IOL implantations was 645.82±878.44 d.At 1 mo,binocular UCDVA was lower than 0.20 logMAR in 76%of patients(mean 0.12±0.13 logMAR),which increased to 90%by 6 and 12 mo.The binocular UCDVA was significantly better than the monocular results(P<0.05)at 1,6,and 12 mo.Additionally,UCNVA was lower than 0.40 logMAR in 82%of patients,increasing to 90%by 6 and 12 mo.Mean UCNVA in the multifocal IOL implanted eye was statistically significantly better than that in the monofocal IOL implanted eye(P<0.05)at 1,6,and 12 mo.About 5%of patients at 1 and 6 mo,reported'severe glare or halo'.Patient satisfaction rates were 95%and 91%at 6 and 12 mo,respectively.CONCLUSION:Unilateral implantation of multifocal IOL in patients with a contralateral,monofocal IOL implantation results in high patient satisfaction rate,with low severe glare or halo rate during follow-up.It can represent a good option for patients who have previously had a monofocal IOL implantation regardless of two year interval duration between two IOL implantations. | Jae Yong Kim Yunhan Lee Hun Jae Won Hyerin Jeong Jin Hyoung Park Myoung Joon Kim Hungwon Tchah | 2020 | International Journal of Ophthalmology(English edition)2020,13,5: | 2 |
| 18 | Insect community structures along elevation gradients on Mt.Seongak-san, South Korea显示文摘Insect communities along three elevation gradients on Mt. Seongak-san, South Korea, were investigated from May to September 2013 using traps in order to collect basic data for distributional monitoring of species in a forest ecosystem. A total of 2698 individuals of 309 moth species of 18 families were collected in bucket-light traps,along with 196 individuals of 26 ground-beetle species and11,276 individuals of 14 ant species in pit-fall traps. The insect community at each site was analyzed using analysis of variance and non-metric multidimensional scaling(NMS). The ground-beetle and ant abundances varied with elevation. The NMS showed distinct clusters of moths between the ground-beetle and ant distributions with elevation and month. The community-level responses of these insect groups to those gradients were analyzed. | Young-Min Shin Il-Kwon Kim Jong-Woo Nam Da-Som Kim Seung Jin Roh Jun Hyoung Jeon Jong Kyun Park Dong-Pyeo Lyu Bong-Woo Lee Bong-Kyu Byun | 2015 | Journal of Forestry Research2015,26,4: | 2 |
