Suh, Hye Rim,Lee, Su-Young korean Academy of Physical Therapy Rehabilitation 2018 Physical therapy rehabilitation science Vol.7 No.3

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of foam roller (FR) stretching, kinesiotaping (KT), and dynamic stretching (DS) on gait parameters after inducing muscle fatigue in the ankle joint. Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: The subjects were thirty healthy young adults between the ages of 20 and 31 years at Baekseok University who voluntarily participated in this study. The participants were randomly assigned to either the FR group, KT group, or the DS group after inducing muscle fatigue of the ankle joint. Fatigue induction of the ankle joint muscles was performed by alternating a heel up and down exercise with the standing posture on the ground. The speed was maintained at 40 beats/minute using a metronome. Subsequently, the respective intervention was applied to each group. Gait parameters were measured before and after ankle muscle fatigue induction, and after intervention using the GAITRite system. One-way ANOVA was used to compare gait parameters among groups, while repeated measures ANOVA was used to compare gait parameters within each intervention group. Results: The FR group increased significantly in velocity, step length, and stride length except for cadence after intervention compared to after ankle muscle fatigue induction (p<0.01). Furthermore, the KT group showed significant increases in velocity, cadence, step length, and stride length after intervention, especially in cadence group (p<0.05). All intervention groups showed significant increases in stride length after intervention, especially the DS group (p<0.05). Conclusions: Therefore, we suggest that KT, FR, and DS can be an effective intervention on gait parameters when the ankle joint is unstable and injured.

Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate the intra and interrater reliability of static and dynamic postures in the transverse abdominal muscles (TrA) using manual testing and velcro strap of the transducer in Bmode ultrasonography (US). Methods Twentythree healthy participants were evaluated using two different measurement methods by two raters within one day and on three different days. They were implemented with abdominal drawingin maneuver (ADIM) with lying, ballsitting, and handonknee positions using manual testing or Velcro strap of the transducer. Results There were statistically significant differences in TrA between ADIM with lying and handonknee positions (p<0.05). Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) values of the transducer with Velcro strap for interrater and intrarater reliability were higher on ADIM with lying (0.94 and 0.96), ballsitting (0.87 and 0.88), and handonknee (0.86 and 0.91) positions compared to manual testing. Conclusion Our results suggest that handonknee exercise affects TrA contraction and has higher reliability using the transducer with a velcro strap.

Suh, Hye Rim,Hwang, Jin-Hee,Lee, Su-Young korean Academy of Physical Therapy Rehabilitation 2017 Physical therapy rehabilitation science Vol.6 No.3

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of visual block with ankle joint fatigue on gait and dynamic balance ability. Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: Thirty healthy young adults (men=15, women=15) between 22 to 25 years of age voluntarily participated in this study. All subjects performed the gait and dynamic balance test successively in two conditions: the visual block and the open eyes condition. Before the gait and dynamic balance test, muscle fatigue on the ankle joint was induced to all subjects by doing ankle dorsiflexion and plantarflexion alternately, and then gait parameters (step length, stride length, cadence, velocity, single limb support, and double limb support) were assessed by walking on the GAITRite system (CIR Systems Inc., USA). Subjects also performed the functional reach test (FRT) for assessment of dynamic balance. This study examined gait parameters and FRT scores in each visual block and open eyes condition. Results: The results showed that FRT scores with the visual block condition significantly decreased compared to without visual blocking (p<0.01). Step length, stride length, cadence, and velocity of gait parameters decreased significantly in the visual block condition (p<0.01) while there was no significant difference for single limb support. However, double limb support increased significantly in the visual block system (p<0.01). Conclusions: Therefore, blocking of visual information with muscle fatigue of the ankle joint can affect gait and balance ability of young adults and increase the risk of falls.

The effects of <i>Chamaecyparis obtusa</i> essential oil on pain-related behavior and expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines in carrageenan-induced arthritis in rats

Suh, Hye Rim,Chung, Hyun Joo,Park, Eui Ho,Moon, Sun Wook,Park, Su Jin,Park, Chan Woo,Kim, Yang In,Han, Hee Chul Informa UK (TaylorFrancis) 2016 Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry Vol.80 No.1

<P>Chamaecyparis obtusa essential oil (COE) has been widely used to treat allergic diseases and was suggested to exert anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antimicrobial effects. This study evaluated the effects of COE on pain-related behavior and pro-inflammatory cytokines in rats with carrageenan (CGN)-induced arthritis. Reduced dynamic weight load on inflamed joint in voluntarily walking rats was used as the behavior test for arthritic pain; 10% COE-treated group was significantly attenuated pain (6-8h post-CGN injection) compared to VEH (mineral oil)-treated group. In addition, the protein levels of interleukin (IL)-1, tumor necrosis factor-, IL-6 (6-8h), and cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 (8h) within the synovial membrane, as well as IL-1, COX-2 (6-8h), and IL-6 (5-7h) within the meniscus, of 10% COE-treated group were significantly reduced. The current results implicate that COE has anti-inflammatory and anti-nociceptive effects on arthritis in rats.</P>

Hye Rim Na,Jong Hui Suh,Jiyun Lee 대한심장혈관흉부외과학회 2023 Journal of Chest Surgery (J Chest Surg) Vol.56 No.5

Perivascular epithelioid cell tumors (PEComas) are very rare mesenchymal neoplasms, composed of histologically and immunohistochemically distinctive cells that form a sheetlike appearance around vessel lumens. Although most are benign, a malignant subset does exist, complicating clinical diagnostic efforts. Proper evaluation and management are thus essential for long-term patient survival. Herein, we present a rare case of a benign pulmonary PEComa that was diagnosed postoperatively in a 45-year-old woman.

This study was a descriptive research study performed to identify the degree and correlation of variables and also explain the factors that influence self-efficacy of diabetes management. The participants were 150 diabetes patients who visited a primary medical institution in K city in Korea from September 17, 2015, to October 15, 2015. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-tests, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients, and multiple regression with SPSS 18.0. Significant differences in age and education were detected in self-efficacy of diabetes management according to general characteristics. The levels of self-management knowledge and diabetes management self-efficacy were shown to be positively correlated. The levels of diabetes management self-efficacy and distress as well as levels of self-management knowledge and distress were shown to be negatively correlated. The significant factors influencing diabetes management self-efficacy were distress and self-management knowledge. The results suggest that appropriate diabetes management self-efficacy programs should be provided in order to improve self-management knowledge and decrease distress in type 2 diabetes patients. This study provides basic data to promote the effective education and development of arbitration in order to enhance self-efficacy of diabetes management.

The purpose of this study was to examine the levels of HbA1c, self-efficacy and self-care activities depending on the duration of type 2 diabetes mellitus and to identify the correlations between them. The participants were 301 type 2 diabetic patients. The data was collected from July 15 to August 20, 2013. The data was analyzed by descriptive statistics, Chi-square test, ANOVA, ANCOVA and Pearsons correlation coefficient using IBM SPSS 19.0. As a result, a longer duration of diabetes was associated with higher levels of HbA1c(p <.001) and self-care activities(p =.003). Patients with a longer duration of diabetes showed a higher compliance of self-medication(p <.001) among subcategories of self-care activities. Duration of diabetes was positively correlated with HbA1c and self-care activities. It was shown that there was a positive correlation between self-efficacy and self-care activities while there was a negative correlation between self-efficacy and HbA1c. In conclusion, it is needed to develop self-efficacy enhancement methods and education contents for an effective self-management of the disease depending on the duration of diabetes.

Background: Several staging systems for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have been purposed but there is no worldwide consensus which staging system is best. We identifi ed the best staging system evaluating the predictive ability for outcome in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma in Korea. Methods: Between January 2004 and December 2009, total of 875 patients with HCC who were diagnosed and treated at the Korea University Guro hospital were enrolled. They were followed up till April 2014. All patients were classifi ed by modifi ed UICC, Barcelona-Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC), Cancer of the Liver Italian Program (CLIP), Chinese University Prognostic Index (CUPI), Japan Integrated Staging (JIS), Tokyo score. The demographic data, clinical variables, tumor characters, residual liver function and initial treatment modalities were reviewed. The discriminatory ability of staging system was quantifi ed using C-index. And the homogeneity and monotonicity of staging system was assessed using likelihood ratio χ2 test correlated with a Cox`s regression model neutralized by Akaike information criterion (AIC). Results: 654 (74. 7%) patients died and the median survival time was 25 months. The 5-years survival was 28. 1%. There were significant differences between all stage in modifi ed UICC, BCLC, CLIP, CUPI, JIS, Tokyo score. In the overall group of patients, CLIP stage had higher discrimination ability (C-index 0. 76) and the best monotonicity of gradient and homogeneity ability (LR χ2 test : 319. 541, P < 0. 008, AIC : 7789. 566). Also JIS system had higher discrimination ability (C-index 0. 75) and higher monotonicity of gradient and homogeneity ability (LR χ2 test : 320. 356, P<. 0001, AIC : 7792. 751). Conclusions: The CLIP and JIS stage systems showed the best prognostic stratifi cation in HCC patients of Korea.
