Background : The promotion and advertisement of pharmaceuticals should be based on evidence from clinical trials. We conducted this study to assess whether the pharmaceutical advertisement claims in Korean medical journals had relevant references, and whether the claims were supported by the references. Methods : We reviewed pharmaceutical advertisements in five Korean medical journals issued during the first half of 1999 and during the first half of 2004. Three investigators independently reviewed the advertisements to see whether the studies quoted to endorse the advertising messages supported the corresponding claims. Using multiple logistic regression analyses, we investigated which factors were associated with the quality of the advertisement claims. Results : From the 550 advertisements in the five journals, we identified 157 different advertisements and 475 different promotional claims. Only 149 claims had at least one reference, and 105 claims had references of published article. We could find supporting evidences in the 90 claims. The factors which were associated with the quality of advertisement claims were category of drugs, category of claims, and the manufacturer characteristics. Claims for cardiovascular and endocrine drugs, and claims on efficacy, and claims of multinational company were more evidence-based. Conclusion : Majority of the pharmaceutical advertisement claims in Korea did not have appropriate references. Drug category, claim category, and the manufacturer characteristics were associated with the quality of advertisement claims, and the manufacturer characteristics was the most important determinants.

Background: The Korea National Antimicrobial Use Analysis System (KONAS), a benchmarking system for antimicrobial use in hospitals, provides Korean Standardized Antimicrobial Administration Ratio (K-SAAR) for benchmarking. This article describes K-SAAR predictive models to enhance the understanding of K-SAAR, an important benchmarking strategy for antimicrobial usage in KONAS. Methods: We obtained medical insurance claims data for all hospitalized patients aged ≥ 28 days in all secondary and tertiary care hospitals in South Korea (n = 347) from January 2019 to December 2019 from the Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service. Modeling was performed to derive a prediction value for antimicrobial use in each institution, which corresponded to the denominator value for calculating K-SAAR. The prediction values of antimicrobial use were modeled separately for each category, for all inpatients and adult patients (aged ≥ 15 years), using stepwise negative binomial regression. Results: The final models for each antimicrobial category were adjusted for different significant risk factors. In the K-SAAR models of all aged patients as well as adult patients, most antimicrobial categories included the number of hospital beds and the number of operations as significant factors, while some antimicrobial categories included mean age for inpatients, hospital type, and the number of patients transferred from other hospitals as significant factors. Conclusion: We developed a model to predict antimicrobial use rates in Korean hospitals, and the model was used as the denominator of the K-SAAR.

Background: To date, there has been no data on the detailed analyses for the incidences of major cardiovascular events in large-scale, Asian population-based cohort. Therefore, in this study, we approached these issues using the Korean Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service (HIRA) database. Methods: We analyzed eligible 30279 [22892 hemodialysis (HD) patients and 7387 peritoneal dialysis (HD) patients] incident chronic dialysis patients who were defi ned as starting dialysis therapy and remaining on that modality at least 3 months. The events were assessed by “major adverse cardiac (MACE) and cerebrovascular events” (“MACCE”). To estimate and to compare the incidence rate of each event, Poisson regression models and Cox proportional hazards models with the propensity score matching were used. Results: During median follow-up of 24.5 months, crude incidence rates of MACCE, MACE, all-cause mortality, non-fatal AMI, TVR, and non-fatal stroke were 182 (95% CI, 178-185), 138 (95% CI, 135-141), 116 (95% CI, 113-118), 18 (95% CI, 17-19), 17 (95% CI, 16-18), and 60 (95% CI, 58-62) per 1000 patient-years, respectively. When comparing all baseline covariate-adjusted relative risks of each end point between HD and PD patients, MACCE, MACE, all-cause mortality, non-fatal AMI, and TVR occurred signifi cantly more frequently in the patients on PD than in those on HD, whereas hemorrhagic subtype of non-fatal stroke was more frequent in the patients on HD than in those on PD. Conclusions: The results suggest that HD is overall superior to PD in terms of MACCE, as a composite end point, but analyzed by the separate end points, the comparison results are rather complex. The results of our study can help to give some basis for risk stratifi cation and customized care for major cardiovascular events in ESRD patients.

Henöch-Schönlein purpura nephritis (HSPN) is considered a systemic form of immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN). Although these are different pictures of a single disease, there are no studies directly comparing long-term outcomes of these two clinical entities. To clarify this, we studied 120 patients with biopsy-proven HSPN and 1070 patients with IgAN. The primary outcome was the composite of a doubling of baseline serum creatinine, end-stage renal disease, or death. Secondary outcomes included the individual renal outcomes or the rate of decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate. In the unmatched cohort, patients with HSPN had more vasculitic symptoms, more favorable histologic features, and were more commonly treated with steroids than patients with IgAN. The risk of reaching the primary outcome was significantly lower in HSPN patients than patients with IgAN (hazard ratio, 0.67). The 1:2 propensity score matching gave matched pairs of 89 patients with HSPN and 178 patients with IgAN, resulting in no differences in baseline conditions. In this matched cohort, there were no significant differences in reaching the primary and secondary outcomes between the two groups. Thus, after adjustment by propensity score matching, clinical outcomes did not differ between HSPN and IgAN, suggesting the two forms of the same disease have a similar prognosis.

OBJECTIVES: To estimate the prevalence of edentulism according to the socio-demographic variables of Korean adults between 2007 and 2018 and to analyze the trends. METHODS: This study was conducted using raw data from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) from 2007 to 2018. Edentulism was defined as the absence of upper and lower teeth or the retained root of the missing teeth. To obtain the prevalence of edentulism, complex sample frequency analysis and regression analysis were performed according to the socio-demographic variables to represent the national population. The Korean population structure in 2005 was exploited as a standard population to calculate age-standardized edentulism. RESULTS: The prevalence of edentulism in 2016-2018 was 9.7% in the Korean elderly, and the change of age-standardized edentulism steadily declined over time from 2007, 12.8%. In particular, it decreased by approximately 20% in the period between 2016 and 2018 compared to that in 2007 for those in their 80s. The trend of the prevalence according to gender decreased significantly in women. According to the level of education, the greatest decrease was seen in the group with the lowest education, although the prevalence itself was higher than that seen in those who were more educated. CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of edentulism among the older Korean population has decreased over time. However, the concern is on those with lower education and men as these groups are still at higher risk for edentulism.
