Correlation Study Between TV Viewing Variables and Cognitive Level, Depression Level, and Activities of Daily Living in Older Individuals Living Alone.

Although there are studies on TV viewing and the health status of elderly, they do not present direct associations with specific variables. The aim of this study was to determine correlations between TV viewing variables and elderly health variables in older adults living alone. Data were collected from 50 elderly individuals with an average age of 82.

A multicenter micro-costing analysis of flexible cystoscopic procedures in Korea.

Purpose: This study aims to develop and implement an economic evaluation using a micro-costing approach to provide a precise and transparent analysis of the direct costs of cystoscopic procedures in Korean hospitals. The study seeks to identify key cost components and evaluate whether current reimbursement rates accurately reflect these direct costs.

Materials And Methods: Significant variations in cost items were identified across different studies.

Understanding the Measurement of Pressure Within the Spinal Cord to Optimize Spinal Cord Perfusion Pressure Using a Porcine Model of Spinal Cord Injury.

Recent studies have reported that monitoring spinal cord perfusion pressure (SCPP) using a pressure probe to measure "intraspinal pressure" (ISP) within the subdural space at the injury site may improve the hemodynamic management of acute spinal cord injury (SCI) patients. This study aimed to investigate, within a pig model of SCI, the relationship between the ISP measured within the subdural space and the "spinal cord pressure" (SCP) measured within the spinal cord itself. Specifically, we sought to characterize the changes to ISP and SCP over time, both rostral and caudal to the injury epicenter, and in relation to native spinal cord morphometry.

Treatment Outcomes in Children With Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia: A Single Institutional Experience.

Background And Objectives: Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is a life-threatening inherited arrhythmogenic disorder. Recently, , the major CPVT-causative gene, was associated with neuropsychiatric manifestations. We aimed to analyze the clinical presentations, neuropsychiatric manifestations, and treatment outcomes of children with CPVT.
