A nationwide survey on the prevalence of dementia and mild cognitive impairment in South Korea.
We investigated the prevalence of dementia and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and the factors associate with risk of dementia from a representative nationwide sample of Korean elders. 8,199 randomly-sampled Koreans aged 65 years or older were invited to participate in the Phase I screening assessment using Mini-Mental State Examination by door-to-door home… (More)
A non-self-intersecting adaptive deformable surface for complex boundary extraction from volumetric images
This paper proposes a non-self-intersecting multiscale deformable surface model with an adaptive remeshing capability. The model is specifically designed to extract the three-dimensional boundaries of topologically simple but geometrically complex anatomical structures, especially those with deep concavities such as the brain, from volumetric medical… (More)
Educational disparities in the metabolic syndrome in a rapidly changing society--the case of South Korea.
BACKGROUND Most of the evidence about socioeconomic inequalities in the metabolic syndrome comes from Western industrialized societies. The aim of this study is to examine how the inequalities appear and what could explain them in Korea, a rapidly changing society. METHODS We analysed the nationwide survey data of 1998 and 2001 with a sample of 4630 men… (More)
[Factors influencing quality of life in married immigrant women in Korea].
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to identify the factors influencing quality of life of married immigrant women in Korea. METHODS The participants included 508 married immigrant women who met the eligibility criteria and agreed to participate in the study. Participants were evaluated for subjective assessment of married immigrant-related constructs… (More)
[Health inequalities in Korea: current conditions and implications].
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study is to summarize the current conditions and implications of health inequalities in South Korea. METHODS Through a literature review of empirical studies and supplementary analysis of the data presented in the 1998, 2001, and 2005 KNHANEs, we evaluated the extent and trends of socioeconomic inequalities in both health risk… (More)
Adaptive surface-deformable model with shape-preserving spring
This paper presents a multi-resolutional surface deformable model with physical property adjustment scheme and shape-preserving springs to represent surface-deformable objects efficiently and robustly. In order to reduce the computational complexity while ensuring the same global volumetric behaviour for the deformable object, we introduce a… (More)
Cerebral perfusion abnormality in narcolepsy with cataplexy.
To investigate abnormal cerebral perfusion in narcoleptics with cataplexy, 25 narcoleptics with cataplexy and 25 normal controls were enrolled in this study. Cerebral perfusion was measured by brain single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) using 99mTc-ethylcysteinate dimer. Patients and normal controls had not received any medication prior to the… (More)
Perfusion abnormality of the caudate nucleus in patients with paroxysmal kinesigenic choreoathetosis.
PURPOSE Previous cerebral blood flow and glucose metabolism studies suggest that the basal ganglia or thalamus is involved in the pathogenesis of paroxysmal kinesigenic choreoathetosis (PKC). However, the underlying cerebral abnormalities in idiopathic PKC have not been elucidated. To localise cerebral perfusion abnormalities in PKC, we performed interictal… (More)
Cross-cultural adaptation and validation of the Korean version of the EQ-5D in patients with rheumatic diseases.
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to determine the cross-cultural adaptation and validation of the Korean version of the EQ-5D in rheumatic conditions. METHODS Translation, back-translation and cognitive debriefing were performed according to the EuroQol group's guidelines. For validity, 508 patients were recruited and administered the EQ-5D, Short-Form 36 and… (More)
Hypometabolism and interictal spikes during positron emission tomography scanning in temporal lobe epilepsy.
To study the influence of interictal spikes on (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET), EEG monitoring was performed during PET scanning in 21 patients with temporal lobe epilepsy. Asymmetry indices were calculated in the polar, mesial, anterior-lateral, mid-lateral and posterior-lateral temporal region of interests of FDG-PET… (More)
