Trends in energy and macronutrient intake among Taiwanese older adults in 1999–2000, 2005–2008 and 2013–2016 periods
Our study provides important evidence on the dietary patterns, as well as their changes over time among Taiwanese older adults. Such information would be useful for health policy makers about the burden of unbalanced diet and for nutrition educators on planning nutrition promotion interventions about well-balanced dietary for the older persons
People Who Used Illicit Drugs Had Higher Rates of Road Traffic Accidents: A Population-Based Study in Taiwan, 2007–2016
Increased Incidence of Dysmenorrhea in Women Exposed to Higher Concentrations of NO, NO2, NOx, CO, and PM2.5: A Nationwide Population-Based Study
Background: Air pollution is speculated to affect the reproductive health of women. However, a longitudinal association between exposure to air pollution and dysmenorrhea has not been identified, which this study aimed to examine this point. Methods: Two nationwide databases, namely the Taiwan Air Quality Monitoring database and the Taiwan National Health Research Institutes database were linked. Women with a history of dysmenorrhea (Internationa…
Subclinical Atherosclerosis Markers of Carotid Intima-Media Thickness, Carotid Plaques, Carotid Stenosis, and Mortality in Community-Dwelling Adults
Carotid intima-media thickness (IMT), plaque, and stenosis are widely used as early surrogate markers of subclinical atherosclerosis and strong predictors of future deaths and cardiovascular events. Albuminuria is an indicator of generalized endothelial dysfunction that speeds up atherosclerosis. However, previous studies reporting these associations cannot rule out the confounding effect of albuminuria. We aimed to examine the independent and jo…
Association of Transfusion With Risks of Dementia or Alzheimer’s Disease: A Population-Based Cohort Study
Purpose: The association between neurodegenerative diseases and transfusion remains to be investigated. Methods: The study population comprised 63,813 patients who underwent a blood transfusion and 63,813 propensity score-matched controls between 2000 and 2010. Data were obtained from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database, which is maintained by the National Health Research Institutes. A Cox regression analysis was conducted to e…
Association of Exposure to Fine-Particulate Air Pollution and Acidic Gases with Incidence of Nephrotic Syndrome
Background : Air pollution has been associated with autoimmune diseases. Nephrotic syndrome is a clinical manifestation of immune-mediated glomerulopathy. However, the association between nephrotic syndrome and air pollution constituents remains unknown. We conducted this nationwide retrospective study to investigate the association between PM 2.5 and nephrotic syndrome. Methods : We used the Longitudinal Health Insurance Database (LHID) and the …
Evidence for an Association between Macular Degeneration and Thyroid Cancer in the Aged Population
Direct evidence of whether thyroid cancer patients have a higher risk of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) has yet to be investigated. Patients older than 50 years-old and newly diagnosed with thyroid cancer between 2000 and 2008 were identified from the national health insurance research database (NHIRD). We applied time-varying Cox proportional hazard models to assess the association between thyroid cancer and AMD. The multivariable models…
Redesigning a clinical mentoring program for improved outcomes in the clinical training of clerks
Our findings serve as an improved framework for the role of the institution and demonstrate how institutional policies, programs, and structures can shape a clinical mentoring program. We recommend the adoption of mentorship schemes for other cohorts of medical students and for different learning and training stages involved in becoming a physician
Successful aging defined by health-related quality of life and its determinants in community-dwelling elders
Successful aging was associated with age, frail status, chronic health-related problems and psychosocial support. However, whether or not these associations are causal requires further exploration
Time trend analysis of the prevalence and incidence of diagnosed type 2 diabetes among adults in Taiwan from 2000 to 2007: A population-based study
This study demonstrated the substantial increase in annual prevalence of diagnosed type 2 diabetes among adults in Taiwan from 2000 to 2007. The incidence fluctuated between 2000 and 2007
Quality of life predicts survival in patients with non-small cell lung cancer
HRQOL provides additional predictive information that supplements traditional clinical factors, and is a new prognostic indicator for survival of NSCLC patients under different treatments
Metabolic syndrome is associated with change in subclinical arterial stiffness - A community-based Taichung Community Health Study
MetS affects the subject's progression to arterial stiffness. Arterial stiffness increased as the number of MetS components increased. Management of MetS is important for preventing the progression to advanced arterial stiffness
The role of leader behaviors in hospital-based emergency departments' unit performance and employee work satisfaction
Sex difference in the association of metabolic syndrome with high sensitivity C-reactive protein in a Taiwanese population
Our data suggest that inflammatory processes may be of particular importance in the pathogenesis of metabolic syndrome in women
The relationship of high sensitivity C-reactive protein to percent body fat mass, body mass index, waist-to-hip ratio, and waist circumference in a Taiwanese population
Our study demonstrates that %FM is the only obesity indicator that is strongly associated with a high level of hs-CRP after adjusting for sociodemographic factors, lifestyle behaviors and components of metabolic syndrome in both genders in a Taiwanese population aged forty years and over. In men, %FM had the greatest ability to classify subjects with a high level of hs-CRP when only demographic and lifestyle behaviors were considered. Our study f…
The relation of metabolic syndrome according to five definitions to cardiovascular risk factors - a population-based study
The associations of these five definitions with cardiovascular risk factors were similar in women, and it was evident that the five definitions performed better in women than in men, with higher ORs observed in relation to arterial stiffness, elevated hs-CRP, and higher Framingham risk scores
Patient satisfaction evaluations in different clinic care models: Care stratification under a national demonstration project
Association between television viewing and the risk of metabolic syndrome in a community-based population
The findings suggest that TV viewing is an independent risk factor associated with metabolic syndrome in Taiwanese people
Metabolic syndrome in a Taiwanese metropolitan adult population
MetS was present in more than 30% of the Taiwan adult population aged 40 years and over in a metropolitan area; there were substantial variations by age and body mass index groups
Validation of the Chinese version of the diabetes impact measurement scales amongst people suffering from diabetes
The Impact of the Sars Outbreak on an Urban Emergency Department in Taiwan
OBJECTIVE: Emergency departments (ED) were on the front lines for possible cases of transmission during the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) epidemic. The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of the SARS catastrophe on an urban ED. METHODS: The patients' characteristics in an urban ED were collected from March to May 2003 during the SARS outbreak in Taiwan. The crisis period was divided into 2 periods: 30 days before (perio…
