研究室紹介
Professor Nangyo Lee's research lab focuses on neurological and psychiatric disorders, particularly in aging populations and high-stress populations such as medical students. The lab investigates the interplay between neurological conditions—like stroke, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and ADHD—and their impact on cognitive function, physical performance, and psychosocial outcomes. A key focus is on identifying biomarkers and risk factors for conditions such as accelerated brain aging, dementia-related caregiver violence, and stroke-related driving safety, with translational goals in clinical rehabilitation and public health policy.

5OBJECTIVES: To investigate: (i) the intra-rater, inter-rater and test-retest reliabilities of completion times and step counts on the Standardized Walking Obstacle Course test (SWOC); (ii) correlations between SWOC scores and stroke-specific impairments; (iii) the cut-off SWOC completion times and step counts for distinguishing differences in obstacle negotiation ability in people with chronic stroke and healthy older adults. DESIGN: Cross-sectional study. SETTING: University-based rehabilitatio
To define the causal relationship of ischemic cerebral infarction to automobile accidents in hospitalized patients a computerized hospital record search with ICD-9 diagnostic codes 433 and 434 for occlusive cerebrovascular disease, and E810 and E819 for motor vehicle traffic accidents was conducted over a three-year period. Inclusion criteria required patients be identified as the driver of the vehicle and demonstrate computed tomographic (CT) evidence of an evolving cerebral infarction on seria
Introduction: Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a persistent neurodevelopmental disorder that often continues into adulthood, with a global adult prevalence of approximately 3.1%. Among medical students, the condition may be particularly underdiagnosed and undertreated, despite the intense cognitive, emotional, and psychological demands of medical education. This systematic review aimed to examine the prevalence of ADHD in medical students across diverse settings. Methods: A com
Abstract Background Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a severe psychiatric condition affecting a substantial number of individuals worldwide, with a disproportionately higher prevalence among females. PTSD is characterized by dysregulation in both the brain and body and has been associated with accelerated biological aging. Previous studies have linked PTSD to markers of biological aging, such as telomere shortening and alterations in epigenetic clocks. However, its specific impact on bra
매년 우리나라 치매노인 간병살인사건은 연이어 발생하고 있으나 이를 위한 실태 파악과 대책 마련은 부족하다. 본 연구는 1995년 1월 1일부터 2024년 7월 31일까지 신문기사에 보도된 치매노인 간병살인 사례 현황을 파악하고, 간병살인 위험요인을 개인․경제․사회적 요인으로 구분해 살펴보았다. 이를 위해 국내 일간지에 보도된 129건의 사례를 분석한 결과, 첫째, 간병살인 피해 치매노인은 ‘80대 이상’, ‘노인 여성’ 사례 수가 많았으며, 투병 기간은 ‘1년 이상 ～3년 미만’이 많았다. 둘째, 간병살인 가해자는 ‘아들’이 가장 많았으며, 가해자의 연령은 ‘50대’가 많았다. 셋째, 간병살인 위험요인은 개인적 요인 증 ‘치매 증상(정신행동증상: Behavioral and Psychological Symptoms of Dementia)으로 인한 순간적 분노’, 경제적 요인 중‘오랜 간병으로 인한 생활고’, 사회적 요인 중 ‘자식이나 가족에게 부담이 될까 봐, 짐이 될까 봐’에 의한
