Professor Sang Do Shin's research lab specializes in public health and emergency medicine, with a focus on injury epidemiology, cardiovascular disease mortality, and the impact of national health policies on health outcomes. The lab investigates the epidemiological patterns of poisoning and injury-related mortality in Korea, evaluates the effectiveness of public health interventions—such as pesticide bans—and explores the diagnostic accuracy of emergency medical technicians in prehospital settings. The research integrates population-level data with clinical and policy applications to inform evidence-based public health strategies.
Figures are computed from collected data and may differ slightly.
Serum total cholesterol and LDL-C level is associated with increased CVD mortality, but HDL-C level is inversely associated with CVD mortality.
We found substantial variation in 11 communities across the PAROS EMS systems. This study will provide the foundation for understanding subsequent studies arising from the PAROS effort.
The national implementation of the five UTIS programs was significantly associated with better OHCA outcomes in Korea.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the epidemiologic characteristics of the death by poisoning in Korea. We recoded the Death Certificates Database by injury based on the short version of the International Classification of External Causes of Injuries (ICECI). We evaluated the mortality rate by total injury and poisoning, and analyzed the mortality rate by age, gender, year and month, toxic agent, and intent. Adjusted odds ratios were calculated to evaluate the effects of socioeconomic
The national public health policy that banned paraquat resulted in a significant decrease in pesticide-associated mortality.
EMTs in Korea showed a high diagnostic performance that was comparable to that of surgeons and physicians when detecting peritoneal cavity free fluid in a Korean emergency department setting. The validity of FAST examinations in prehospital care situations should be investigated further.
