Effects of disability-related limitations in daily living on unmet needs
Limitations in daily life due to disability increase the risk of having unmet needs, an effect that is significantly more pronounced in men. These unmet needs differ depending on an individual's sex, disability type, limited body parts, and other specific causes. Efforts are required to reduce the unmet needs of people with disabilities by considering the type of disability, impaired body parts, and causes of unmet needs in daily life

The impact of entering poverty on the unmet medical needs of Korean adults
Entering poverty had the potential to adversely affect unmet medical needs. Men, rural dwellers, and NHI beneficiaries were vulnerable to unmet medical needs after entering poverty. Rigid definitions of poverty and inaccessibility to health care and information increase the likelihood of unmet medical needs and poverty. Society must alleviate unmet medical needs due to the increase in the population entering poverty
Association between years with incidence of communicable diseases focused on Covid-19 and hand hygiene among adults in South Korea
There was a strong tendency toward frequent handwashing over the years; the trend was even greater in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic. Given that communicable diseases and handwashing are closely related, it is necessary to promote hand hygiene for prevention
Spatial, temporal, and demographic patterns in prevalence of smoking tobacco use and attributable disease burden in 204 countries and territories, 1990–2019
BACKGROUND: Ending the global tobacco epidemic is a defining challenge in global health. Timely and comprehensive estimates of the prevalence of smoking tobacco use and attributable disease burden are needed to guide tobacco control efforts nationally and globally. METHODS: We estimated the prevalence of smoking tobacco use and attributable disease burden for 204 countries and territories, by age and sex, from 1990 to 2019 as part of the Global B…
Global, regional, and national burden of stroke and its risk factors, 1990–2019
BACKGROUND: Regularly updated data on stroke and its pathological types, including data on their incidence, prevalence, mortality, disability, risk factors, and epidemiological trends, are important for evidence-based stroke care planning and resource allocation. The Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) aims to provide a standardised and comprehensive measurement of these metrics at global, regional, and national leve…
Comparison of Patient Satisfaction in Inpatient Care Provided by Hospitalists and Nonhospitalists in South Korea
Hospitalists' patients showed higher satisfaction during the hospital stay. Our study discovered that hospitalists could provide high-quality care as they provide onsite care continuously from admission to discharge
Association of Alcohol Drinking Patterns with Metabolic Syndrome and Its Components in Korean Adults
This study examined the association of alcohol drinking patterns with metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its components in a nationally representative sample of South Korean adults. The cross-sectional study included 12,830 current drinkers (6438 men and 6392 women) who were at least 20 years old. Measures of alcohol drinking patterns included average drinking frequency, usual quantity, and binge drinking frequency over the past year. Multivariate log…
Improved Inpatient Care through Greater Patient–Doctor Contact under the Hospitalist Management Approach
This study found that hospitalists devoted more time to having frequent encounters with patients. Therefore, inpatient care by a hospitalist who manages inpatient care from admission to discharge could improve the care quality
Changes in child abuse experience associated to sleep quality
Child abuse remains a traumatic experience that influences the quality of sleep and hinders the child's proper psychological development. We suggest approaching this issue at both the community and national levels to protect the victims
The effect of depression status change on daily cigarette smoking amount according to sex
We found that a change from depressed to non-depressed and non-depressed to depressed status is associated with decreasing and increasing DCA among men, respectively. Also, for smokers who began smoking before 19 years of age, the subgroup that went from depressed to non-depressed had much a lower DCA than general smokers. Thus, when treating people participating in smoking cessation programs, counsellors should check for depression symptoms and …
Association between sedentary time and sleep quality based on the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index among South Korean adults
Regardless of sex, the longer the sedentary time, the stronger the association with poor sleep quality. Nationwide efforts are required to recommend standards for sedentary time and develop evidenced-based healthy behavior guidelines
The Association of Maternal Accompaniment at Family Dinners and Depressive Symptoms of Korean Adolescents
This study aims to investigate the association between family dinners involving the participation of both mother and her adolescent child and depressive symptoms within the adolescents. Data from 2183 mother-child pairs obtained from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey IV-VI (2010-2013, and 2015) were employed in the analysis.

Methods: We used the South Korean National Health Insurance Service claims cohort data to select 149,663 patients without dementia aged ≥60 years. We calculated adjusted hazard rat…
Synergistic Effects and Sex Differences in Anthropometric Measures of Obesity and Elevated High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein Levels
Background: It remains unclear which anthropometric measure best predicts elevated high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels. This study investigated the association and synergistic interaction of two obesity indices with elevated hs-CRP levels in a national sample of Korean adults, stratified by sex. Methods: The present cross-sectional study used data from the 2015-2018 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey of 18,610 …
The Association Between the Changes in General, Family, and Financial Aspects of Quality of Life and Their Effects on Cognitive Function in an Elderly Population
