ABSTRACT T hermal and other physicochemical properties of starch from 42 potato genotypes were studied to find those with unique properties for food use, and to analyze relationships between thermal and other physicochemical properties. Onset and peak transition temperatures and gelatinization enthalpy intercorrelated. Transition temperatures intercorrelated with pasting temperature using a Brabender Visco‐amylograph. Gelatinization entbalpy correlated with Brabender pasting temperature and peak

BACKGROUND: Delayed arrival at hospital is one of the major obstacles in enhancing the rate of thrombolysis therapy in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Our study aimed to investigate factors associated with prehospital delay after acute ischemic stroke in Korea. METHODS: A prospective, multicenter study was conducted at 14 tertiary hospitals in Korea from March 2009 to July 2009. We interviewed 500 consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke who arrived within 48 hours. Univariate and mu

Aberrant expression of membrane mucins MUC3 and MUC4 and of a mucin-associated carbohydrate tumor antigen Sialyl Le(x) in PanINs and adenocarcinoma further supports the progression model for pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

Human serum and hemoglobin-free erythrocyte membranes were found to contain a galactosyltransferase which catalyzes the transfer of galactose from UDP-galactose to specific large and small molecular weight acceptors. The requirements for enzyme activity were found to be similar for the enzymes from both sources. However, the membrane-bound enzyme depended on a detergent for maximal activity. Mn(++) was an absolute requirement for transfer and uridine nucleoside phosphates were inhibitors. The mo

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: To date, no large study has been conducted to investigate baseline stroke awareness within a nationally representative sample of the Korean population. METHODS: A total of 1000 residents were randomly sampled according to regional demographic characteristics and were interviewed in person by trained interviewers. Structured, open-ended and close-ended questions were asked to assess stroke awareness. RESULTS: Among the respondents, 62% reported at least 1 stroke symptom an

The involvement of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in ischemic-stroke-induced inflammatory response has recently been suggested; however, the relationship between MMPs and stroke progression has not been evaluated. We investigated the role of MMPs in neurological worsening of acute lacunar infarction. Forty-nine consecutive patients with an acute lacunar infarction (as defined by clinical and MRI criteria within 48 h after stroke onset) were evaluated. Clinical, biochemical, rheological, inflam

Glycemic variability (GV) is reportedly a predictor for poor outcome in various clinical conditions. We aimed to assess whether GV during hospital admission is associated with poor outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and diabetes. We prospectively enrolled consecutive patients with AIS from the registry of 6 tertiary hospitals between January 2013 and December 2014. For the GV index, we used a glucose level range that was divided into 4 quartiles. Multivariable binary and ordin

BACKGROUND: Clinical and radiological characteristics of middle cerebral artery (MCA) infarction may differ according to the location of occlusion. OBJECTIVES: We investigated the difference between proximal and distal symptomatic MCA occlusion (MCAO) in patients with ischemic stroke. The factors associated with the imaging characteristics were also analyzed. METHODS: Patients with ischemic stroke due to MCAO were consecutively enrolled. The location of MCAO was determined by the ratio of the le
