This study estimates the total burden of HIV infection in Korea for the first time using an internationally recognized HIV modeling tool. Claims data can be used to estimate the number of undiagnosed cases by identifying the total number of PLHIV and AIDS patients visiting health facilities.

Abstract Background A substantial portion of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) cases occur in communities, and community-onset CDI (CO-CDI) can lead to serious complications including mortality. This study aimed to identify the risk factors for a poor outcome in CO-CDI. Methods We performed a retrospective review of all inpatients with CDI, in a 1300-bed tertiary-care hospital in Korea, from 2008 through 2015. CO-CDI was defined as CDI occurring within 48 h of admission. Poor outcome was def

본 연구의 목적은 플립 러닝형 프로젝트 기반 학습을 체계적으로 설계하고 실행하기 위한 안내 지침이 되는 교수설계 전략과 모형을 개발하는 것이다. 프로젝트 기반 학습에서 학습자가 학습 과제를 해결하기 위해서는 다양한 분야의 지식이 유기적으로 통합되어야 하는데, 이를 위해 교실 밖의 사전학습을 통해 기본 지식을 습득하고, 현장에서는 데이터를 수집하며, 공동으로 산출물을 제작하는 형태의 플립 러닝 방식이 유용하게 활용될 수 있다. 본 연구는 형성연구 방법론에 따라 선행 문헌을 고찰하여 플립 러닝형 프로젝트 기반 학습을 위한 초기 교수설계 전략과 모형을 개발하고 두 차례의 전문가 타당화를 토대로 전략과 모형을 개선하였다. 이후 개선한 전략과 모형을 반영한 교육 프로그램을 실행하고 교수자와 학습자의 반응을 확인하였다. 최종 교수설계 모형은 ‘목표 설정 및 확인’, ‘분석 및 설계’, ‘개발 및 선정’, ‘실행’, ‘수정 및 보완’, ‘최종 평가’ 등 총 6개의 단계와 17개의 요소로 구성되었

Condomless sex is not totally discouraged after achieving undetectable human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) load, but the prevalence of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) in the group is unknown. This study was retrospective in nature, using the claims database of the National Health Insurance system from 2008 to 2016. The clinical characteristics of people living with HIV with or without syphilis coinfection were analyzed. People with HIV and syphilis coinfection were divided into two groups ac

해수면온도는 기후변화에 대한 핵심적 역할을 하는 해양-대기 변수이다. 해양 수온의 시간적, 공간적 변화를 인지하는 것은 교수-학습 과정에서 매우 중요하다. 2015 개정 교육과정에 기반한 중등학교 교과서에서는 우리나라 주변 바다의 계절별 수온 분포 특성에 대한 탐구활동을 다루고 있고, 주로 2월(겨울)과 8월(여름)의 해수면온도 자료 삽화를 대표로 제시하고 있다. 한반도 주변해에서의 해수면온도는 복잡하게 변화하기 때문에 학생들이 원하는 해역과 시간의 해수면온도 분포를 파악할 수 있는 교육 도구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 교수-학습 활동에서 간단한 조작을 통하여 해수면온도의 분포를 이해할 수 있도록, 인공위성 빅데이터를 기반으로 하는 그래픽 사용자 인터페이스 (GUI) 프로그램을 교육 도구로 개발하였다. 2007년 1월부터 2021년 12월까지 최근 15년간의 Operational Sea Surface Temperature and Sea Ice Analysis (OSTIA) 인공위성

Nirmatrelvir/ritonavir against the omicron was safe and resulted in negative viral culture conversion after Day 5 of treatment with better symptomatic resolution.

An elachistacean epiphyte, Neoleptonema yongpilii E.-Y. Lee & I.K. Lee, gen. et sp. nov., is reported from Korean coasts. The plants are distinguished by having unbranched assimilatory filaments with intercalary plurilocular sporangia as well as lateral plurilocular sporangia from the cortex. The new genus differs from the genera Leptonematella P. Silva and Halothrix Reinke by having pod-shaped plurilocular sporangia on the medulla, and from Elachista Duby and Proselachista Y.P. Lee & Ga

The study aimed to elucidate simple and effective risk factors for scabies infection in the medical environment for early detection and prevention of exposure to other patients and medical staff. We conducted a case-control study of patients who were diagnosed with scabies among hospitalized patients between 2008 and 2019 in an acute-care teaching hospital. Each case was matched according to sex and age with two randomly selected controls without scabies during hospitalization. Clinical characte

BACKGROUND: Zoster vaccination is recommended for people with a history of herpes zoster (HZ), but the most effective timing of vaccine administration after zoster illness is unresolved. This prospective observational study compared the immunogenicity and safety of administering HZ vaccine at 6-12 months and 1-5 years after zoster illness. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Blood samples were collected before the administration of live zoster vaccine and 6 weeks after vaccination. Varicella-zoster virus (VZ

The epidemiological characteristics of women living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection have gained little attention as the numbers are small compared with men living with HIV in the Republic of Korea. However, these data are important to achieve effective HIV infection control and to consider the influence of socioeconomic status on HIV transmission. This study utilized the claims database of the Korean National Health Insurance system to analyze women with a newly diagnosed HIV i

AIM: Delirium during acute infection is associated with poor outcomes, although research is limited due to the heterogenous nature of affected populations. Identifying risk factors for delirium can help differentiate high-risk patients. METHODS: This retrospective study was carried out at a single COVID-19 designated hospital in Korea between February 2020 and May 2022. It analyzed the clinical and laboratory characteristics of COVID-19 patients aged ≥75 years. COVID-19, ranging from mild to sev

This study underscores the importance of age at HIV diagnosis, socioeconomic status, and AIDS status as determinants of the risk of incident dementia among people living with HIV.
