Abstract
Background: In response to the coronavirus disease-19 pandemic, audio-based telehealth services for consultation and medication prescription were temporarily introduced in Korea. This study investigated the impact of telehealth services on patterns of health care utilization and medication prescription in patients with hypertension or diabetes. Methods: The 2019 to 2021 Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service claims data were used. The difference-in-difference approach was used to investigate the effect of telehealth services between the case and control group before and after the intervention period. The pre-intervention period was from February 24, 2019, to February 23, 2020, and the post-intervention period from February 24, 2020, to February 23, 2021. The control group included individuals who used in-person outpatient services and the case group those who utilized both telehealth and in-person services. Results: A total of 250,640 patients with hypertension and 154,212 patients with diabetes were included. The use of telehealth services was associated with an increase in outpatient visits in those with hypertension (0.07, p = 0.0027) and diabetes (0.32, p < 0.0001). A decrease in hospitalizations (-0.2%, p = 0.0007) and emergency department visits (-0.11%, p = 0.0016) was found in individuals with hypertension. Policy implementation also resulted in an increase in medication possession ratio (MPR) and the proportion of appropriate prescription in patients with hypertension (MPR: 3.0%, p < 0.0001, prescription: 3.1%, p < 0.0001) and diabetes (MPR: 3.4%, p < 0.0001, prescription: 1.7%, p < 0.0001). Conclusions: The findings confirm a relationship between implementing telehealth services and improved patterns of health care utilization and medication prescription, suggesting the potential benefit of telehealth in managing chronic diseases.

Abstract
This study investigated the association between area deprivation level and performance of handwashing behavior during the COVID-19 pandemic in Korean adults. This study used data from the 2015 Population and Housing Census data to measure area deprivation level. The 2020 Korea Community Health Survey was used for all other variables, including hand hygiene behavior (August through November 2020). The association between area deprivation level and practice of handwashing behavior was examined using multilevel logistic regression analysis. The study population comprised 215,676 adults aged 19 years or above. Compared to the least area deprived group, the most deprived group was more likely to not wash hands after using the restroom (OR 1.43, 95% CI 1.13-1.82), after coming home (OR 1.85, 95% CI 1.43-2.39), and using soap (OR 1.55, 95% CI 1.29-1.84). The findings suggest the importance of considering area deprivation in implementing policies that promote handwashing, particularly during a pandemic.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Changes in the local population are intricately linked to healthcare infrastructure, which subsequently impacts the healthcare sector. A decreasing local population can result in lagging health infrastructure, potentially leading to adverse health outcomes as patients may be at risk of not receiving optimal care and treatment. While some studies have explored the relationship between chronic diseases and local population decline, evidence regarding cancer is insufficient. In this study, we focused on how deteriorating management of chronic diseases such as dyslipidemia could influence the risk of cancer. We investigated the relationship between changes in the local population and cancer incidence among patients with dyslipidemia. METHODS This cohort study was conducted using claims data. Data from adult patients with dyslipidemia from the National Health Insurance Service-National Sample Cohort conducted between 2002 and 2015 were included. Population changes in each region were obtained from the Korean Statistical Information Service and were used to link each individual's regional code. Cancer risk was the dependent variable, and Cox proportional hazards regression was used to estimate the target associations. RESULTS Data from 336,883 patients with dyslipidemia were analyzed. Individuals who resided in areas with a decreasing population had a higher risk of cancer than those living in areas with an increasing population (decrease: hazard ratio (HR) = 1.06, 95% CI = 1.03-1.10; normal: HR = 1.05, 95% CI = 1.02-1.09). Participants living in regions with a low number of hospitals had a higher risk of cancer than those in regions with a higher number of hospitals (HR = 1.20, 95% CI = 1.12-1.29). CONCLUSION Patients in regions where the population has declined are at a higher risk of cancer, highlighting the importance of managing medical problems caused by regional extinction. This could provide evidence for and useful insights into official policies on population decline and cancer risk.

Abstract
PURPOSE Elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) may have a higher risk of physical disability. This study investigated the incidence of gastric cancer according to physical disability status in elderly patients with T2DM. METHODS The National Health Insurance Service claims data were used. A total of 76,162 participants aged 60 years or above, diagnosed with T2DM, were included. The association between physical disability status and gastric cancer incidence was evaluated using the Cox regression analysis. Additionally, subgroup analysis was performed according to region. RESULTS A total of 9,154 (12.0%) individuals had physical disability. Gastric cancer incidence was more common in participants with physical disability (3.3%) than those without (2.4%). A higher risk of gastric cancer incidence was found in elderly T2DM patients with physical disability (Hazard Ratio (HR) 1.18, 95% Confidence Interval (95% CI) 1.04-1.34). Such tendencies were maintained regardless of region, although the effect of physical disability status on gastric cancer incidence was particularly significant in individuals residing in non-metropolitan areas (HR: 1.19, 95% CI: 1.01-1.40). CONCLUSION Elderly patients with T2DM who had physical disability showed a higher risk of gastric cancer incidence. The findings suggest a need to monitor elderly T2DM patients with disability as they may be susceptible to difficulties in accessing cancer-related healthcare.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a chronic multifactorial disease characterized by a combination of insulin resistance and impaired glucose regulation. The alleviative effects of probiotics on T2D have been widely studied. However, studies on the effects of postbiotics, known as inactivated probiotics, on dairy products are limited. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of postbiotic Lactiplantibacillus plantarum LRCC5314 in milk powder (MP-LRCC5314) in a stress-T2D mouse model. Compared with probiotic MP-LRCC5314, postbiotic MP-LRCC5314 significantly influenced stress-T2D-related factors. The administration of heat-killed MP-LRCC5314 reduced corticosterone levels, increased short-chain fatty acid production by modulating gut microbiota, and regulated immune response, glucose metabolism, stress-T2D-related biomarkers in the brain, gut, and adipose tissues, as well as glucose and insulin sensitivity. Additionally, heat-killed MP-LRCC5314 treatment led to a decrease in pro-inflammatory cytokine levels and an increase in anti-inflammatory cytokine levels. Overall, these findings suggest that adding postbiotic MP-LRCC5314 to milk powder could serve as a potential supplement for stress-T2D mitigation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Investigating the factors associated with unmet medical needs is important since it can reflect access to healthcare. This study examined the relationship between the unmet medical needs of patients with hypertension and their satisfaction with the healthcare services available in their neighborhoods. METHODS Data were from the 2021 Korean Community Health Survey. The sample included individuals aged 19 years who were diagnosed with hypertension. The main outcome measure was unmet medical need. The relationship between the outcome measure and independent variables were analyzed using multivariate logistic regressions, along with a subgroup analysis based on whether patients were currently receiving treatment for hypertension. RESULTS Unmet medical needs were found in 4.3% of the study participants. A higher likelihood of unmet medical needs was found in individuals not satisfied with the healthcare services at proximity (adjusted OR = 1.69, 95% CI: 1.49-1.92) compared to those satisfied with services nearby. Similar tendencies were found regardless of whether individuals were currently receiving treatment for hypertension, although larger differences were found between groups in participants who were currently not receiving treatment. CONCLUSIONS The findings infer the need to consider patient satisfaction with nearby healthcare services in implementing public health policies that address unmet medical need in patients with hypertension.

Abstract
Background Owing to the aging population, the prevalence of dementia is increasing worldwide and has become an important public health problem. In 2018, Korea implemented the National Dementia Care Policy to strengthen the management of dementia and reduce its related burden on medical expenses. This study investigated the effect this policy on total and out-of-pocket costs in elderly patients with dementia. Methods Data were from the National Health Insurance System. The study population included 10,549,863 individuals aged 65 years or older, recorded between January 1, 2015, and December 31, 2020. The treatment group comprised of dementia patients and the control group those diagnosed with the five most common diseases found in individuals aged 65 years or above. The difference-in-difference was used to explore changes in total and out-of-pocket healthcare costs per diagnosed case between the treatment and control group before and after the intervention period. Findings Policy implementation was associated with a significant decrease in patient out-of-pocket cost. In the covariate-controlled model, no statistically significant changes were found for total mean healthcare cost. However, patient out-of-pocket cost decreased by 0.05 per diagnosed case. Interpretation The National Dementia Care Policy led to a reduction in patient out-of-pocket cost in elderly patients with dementia. National policies need to be monitored to reduce the economic burden of patients with dementia while maintaining the financial sustainability of the healthcare system. Funding This research was financially supported by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy (MOTIE) and Korea Planning & Evaluation Institute of Industrial Technology (Project No. 20024263).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Many municipal districts in Korea face population decline owing to overall population decreases and aging. We investigated the association between geographic rurality and likelihood of receiving diabetes management education and diabetic retinopathy and diabetes-related kidney disease screenings among adults with diabetes. METHODS Patient data were obtained from the 2021 Korea Community Health Survey (27,391 individuals; aged ≥19 years and physician-diagnosed with diabetes mellitus). Geographic rurality was categorized based on population decline as follows: with, at risk of, or without population decline. The association between geographic rurality and likelihood of receiving diabetes management education and diabetic retinopathy and diabetes-related kidney disease screenings was examined using multilevel logistic regression analyses. RESULTS Among 27,391 patients with diabetes, 31.1% received diabetes education; 40.0% and 46.4% were screened for diabetic retinopathy and diabetes-related kidney disease, respectively. Individuals residing in regions with population decline were less likely to receive diabetes education (odds ratio [OR] 0.62, 95% CI 0.50-0.75) and diabetic retinopathy (OR 0.79, 95% CI 0.70-0.90) and diabetes-related kidney disease (OR 0.64, 95% CI 0.55-0.75) screenings, as compared with their counterparts. CONCLUSIONS Our findings highlight the importance of increased monitoring and providing diabetes education and screenings for patients with diabetes living in rural areas.

Abstract
The primary objective of this study was to investigate the factors contributing to hyperglycemic adverse events (AEs) associated with the administration of remdesivir in hospitalized patients diagnosed with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Furthermore, the study aimed to develop a risk score model employing various machine learning approaches. A total of 1262 patients were enrolled in this investigation. The relationship between covariates and hyperglycemic AEs was assessed through logistic regression analysis. Diverse machine learning algorithms were employed for the purpose of forecasting hyperglycemia-related complications. After adjusting for covariates, individuals with a body mass index ≥23 kg/m2 , those using proton pump inhibitors, cholinergic medications, or individuals with cardiovascular diseases exhibited approximately 2.41-, 2.73-, 2.65-, and 1.97-fold higher risks of experiencing hyperglycemic AEs (95% CI 1.271-4.577, 1.223-6.081, 1.168-5.989, and 1.119-3.472, respectively). Multivariate logistic regression, elastic net, and random forest models displayed area under the receiver operating characteristic curve values of 0.65, 0.66, and 0.60, respectively (95% CI 0.572-0.719, 0.640-0.671, and 0.583-0.611, respectively). This study comprehensively explored factors associated with hyperglycemic complications arising from remdesivir administration and, concurrently, leveraged a range of machine learning methodologies to construct a risk scoring model, thereby facilitating the tailoring of individualized remdesivir treatment regimens for patients with COVID-19.

Abstract
BACKGROUND South Korea introduced the National Lung Cancer Screening Program (NLCSP) in 2019. This study investigated the effect of the NLCSP on one-year mortality in individuals with a history of lung cancer. METHODS This study used the 2018-2020 National Health Insurance Service claims data. The difference-in-differences approach was used to investigate the effect of participating in the NLCSP between the case and control groups before and after the intervention period. The case group included individuals aged between 54 and 74 years with a smoking history of ≥ 30 pack-years and the control group those aged between 54 and 74 years with a history of smoking of <30 pack-years and non-smokers. The pre-intervention period was from January 2018 to June 2019 and the post-intervention period from July 2019 to December 2020. RESULTS The introduction of the NLCSP was related to an overall decrease in one-year mortality (-3.21 % points, 95 % Confidence Interval (CI) -4.84 to -1.58). Specifically, this reduction was significant for lung cancer related mortality (lung cancer: -2.69 % points, 95 % CI -4.24 to -1.13). Furthermore, stronger associations were found in individuals of older age, residing in non-metropolitan areas, and who visited healthcare institutions in non-metropolitan areas. CONCLUSION The findings confirm a relationship between implementation of the NLCSP and one-year mortality in eligible individuals with a history of lung cancer, which is noteworthy considering that Korea is one of the first countries to include lung cancer into the national cancer screening program.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a severe chronic inflammatory condition that affects joint synovium. Suppressor/enhancer of lin-12-like (SEL1L)-Synoviolin 1 (SYVN1)-mediated endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) is highly associated with RA development. Although targeting SEL1L-SYVN1-mediated ERAD can be beneficial, studies that evaluate the association between polymorphisms in their genes and remission from the disease in RA patients taking tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α inhibitors have yet to be carried out. Hence, the purpose of this study was to investigate the association between SYVN1 and SEL1L polymorphisms and TNF-α inhibitor response using various machine learning models. A total of 12 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), including 5 SNPs in SYVN1 and 7 SNPs of SEL1L were investigated. Logistic regression analysis was used to examine the relationship between genetic polymorphisms and response to treatment. Various machine learning methods were employed to evaluate factors associated with remission in patients receiving TNF-α inhibitors. After adjusting for covariates, we found that sulfasalazine and rs2025214 in SEL1L increase the remission rates by approximately 3.3 and 2.8 times, respectively (95% confidence intervals 1.126-9.695 and 1.074-7.358, respectively). Machine learning approaches showed acceptable prediction estimates for remission in RA patients receiving TNF-α inhibitors, with the area under the receiver-operating curve (AUROC) values ranging from 0.60 to 0.65. A polymorphism of the SEL1L gene (rs2025214) and sulfasalazine were found to be associated with treatment response in RA patients receiving TNF-α inhibitors. These preliminary data could be used to tailor treatment for RA patients using TNF-α inhibitors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) and BRCA alterations have poor outcomes. MAGNITUDE found patients with homologous recombination repair gene alterations (HRR+), particularly BRCA1/2, benefit from first-line therapy with niraparib plus abiraterone acetate and prednisone (AAP). Here we report longer follow-up from the second prespecified interim analysis (IA2). PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with mCRPC were prospectively identified as HRR+ with/without BRCA1/2 alterations and randomized 1 : 1 to niraparib (200 mg orally) plus AAP (1000 mg/10 mg orally) or placebo plus AAP. At IA2, secondary endpoints [time to symptomatic progression, time to initiation of cytotoxic chemotherapy, overall survival (OS)] were assessed. RESULTS Overall, 212 HRR+ patients received niraparib plus AAP (BRCA1/2 subgroup, n = 113). At IA2 with 24.8 months of median follow-up in the BRCA1/2 subgroup, niraparib plus AAP significantly prolonged radiographic progression-free survival {rPFS; blinded independent central review; median rPFS 19.5 versus 10.9 months; hazard ratio (HR) = 0.55 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.39-0.78]; nominal P = 0.0007} consistent with the first prespecified interim analysis. rPFS was also prolonged in the total HRR+ population [HR = 0.76 (95% CI 0.60-0.97); nominal P = 0.0280; median follow-up 26.8 months]. Improvements in time to symptomatic progression and time to initiation of cytotoxic chemotherapy were observed with niraparib plus AAP. In the BRCA1/2 subgroup, the analysis of OS with niraparib plus AAP demonstrated an HR of 0.88 (95% CI 0.58-1.34; nominal P = 0.5505); the prespecified inverse probability censoring weighting analysis of OS, accounting for imbalances in subsequent use of poly adenosine diphosphate-ribose polymerase inhibitors and other life-prolonging therapies, demonstrated an HR of 0.54 (95% CI 0.33-0.90; nominal P = 0.0181). No new safety signals were observed. CONCLUSIONS MAGNITUDE, enrolling the largest BRCA1/2 cohort in first-line mCRPC to date, demonstrated improved rPFS and other clinically relevant outcomes with niraparib plus AAP in patients with BRCA1/2-altered mCRPC, emphasizing the importance of identifying this molecular subset of patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE The prevalence of diabetes is higher in patients with colorectal cancer, which is important because diabetes is recognized as a risk factor for increased mortality. This study investigated the impact of incident diabetes-related complications on all-cause five-year mortality in older aged colorectal cancer patients with diabetes. METHODS The 2008 to 2019 National Health Insurance Service data on the elderly were used to identify patients with colorectal cancer aged 60 years or above diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The outcome measure was all-cause five-year mortality. The main independent variable was incident status of diabetes-related complications using the Diabetes Complications Severity Index (DCSI). Survival analyses were performed using the Cox proportional hazards model, in addition to the calculation of risk differences. Subgroup analysis was conducted based on the type of complication and DCSI scores. RESULTS Among 1,312 individuals, 319 (24.3%) died within five years after one year of a cancer diagnosis. The risk of mortality was higher in patients with diabetes and cancer having incident diabetes-related complications (Hazard Ratio 1.29, 95% Confidence Interval 1.03-1.63). These tendencies were generally maintained regardless of the type of complication and DCSI scores. CONCLUSION The incidence of diabetes-related complications after cancer diagnosis was associated with an increased risk of all-cause five-year mortality in older patients with colorectal cancer and preexisting diabetes.

Abstract
Adrenal insufficiency is a rare, yet life-threatening immune-related adverse event of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). This study aimed to establish a risk scoring system for adrenal insufficiency in patients receiving anti-programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) or anti-programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) agents. Moreover, several machine learning methods were utilized to predict such complications. This study included 209 ICI-treated patients from July 2015 to February 2021, excluding those with prior adrenal insufficiency, previous steroid therapy, or incomplete data to ensure data integrity. Patients were continuously followed up at Gyeongsang National University Hospital, with morning blood samples taken for basal cortisol level measurements, facilitating a comprehensive analysis of their adrenal insufficiency risk. Using a chi-squared test and logistic regression model, we derived the odds ratio and adjusted odds ratio (AOR) through univariate and multivariable analyses. This study utilized machine learning algorithms, such as decision trees, random forests, support vector machines (SVM), and logistic regression to predict adrenal insufficiency in patients treated with ICIs. The performance of each algorithm was evaluated using metrics like accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, precision, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC), ensuring rigorous assessment and reproducibility. A risk scoring system was developed from the multivariable and machine learning analyses. In a multivariable analysis, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) (AOR 4.5), and α-blockers (AOR 6.0) were significant risk factors for adrenal insufficiency after adjusting for confounders. Among the machine learning models, logistic regression and elastic net showed good predictions, with AUROC values of 0.75 (0.61-0.90) and 0.76 (0.64-0.89), respectively. Based on multivariable and machine learning analyses, females (1 point), age ≥ 65 (1 point), PPIs (1 point), α-blockers (2 points), and antipsychotics (3 points) were integrated into the risk scoring system. From the logistic regression curve, patients with 0, 1, 2, 4, 5, and 6 points showed approximately 1.1%, 2.8%, 7.3%, 17.6%, 36.8%, 61.3%, and 81.2% risk for adrenal insufficiency, respectively. The application of our scoring system could prove beneficial in patient assessment and clinical decision-making while administering PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors.

Abstract
The polarized cross-section ratio σ_{LT^{'}}/σ_{0} from hard exclusive π^{-}Δ^{++} electroproduction off an unpolarized hydrogen target has been extracted based on beam-spin asymmetry measurements using a 10.2 GeV/10.6 GeV incident electron beam and the CLAS12 spectrometer at Jefferson Lab. The study, which provides the first observation of this channel in the deep-inelastic regime, focuses on very forward-pion kinematics in the valence regime, and photon virtualities ranging from 1.5 GeV^{2} up to 7 GeV^{2}. The reaction provides a novel access to the d-quark content of the nucleon and to p→Δ^{++} transition generalized parton distributions. A comparison to existing results for hard exclusive π^{+}n and π^{0}p electroproduction is provided, which shows a clear impact of the excitation mechanism, encoded in transition generalized parton distributions, on the asymmetry.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study investigated the association between public perception of the appropriateness of management strategies implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic and the level of disturbances in daily activities reported by the general population. METHODS This cross-sectional study used Korea Community Health Survey conducted from August to November 2020. Public perception of COVID-19 management strategies included those implemented by the government (central, city or provincial, and administrative districts), the mass media, regional medical institutions, and neighbors. The subjective level of disturbances in daily activities was measured using a 0-100 numeric rating scale developed by Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency. Multivariable linear regression analysis was used. A subgroup analysis was conducted based on education level. RESULTS The present study analyzed 211,353 participants. Compared to individuals who perceived that the management strategies implemented during the pandemic was 'highly appropriate,' those who reported 'mediocre appropriateness' (β: -1.96, p-value: <0.001) or 'low appropriateness' (β: -3.60, p-value: 0.010) reported higher levels of subjective disturbances. The appropriateness of measures implemented by the mass media was associated with levels of subjective disturbances felt by individuals of lower education with statistical significance, whereas that applied by the mass media and the government were important in those with higher education. CONCLUSIONS The findings suggest the importance of public perception of management strategies when implementing containment policies and minimizing its disturbances on daily lives is essential.

Abstract
Deeply virtual Compton scattering (DVCS) allows one to probe generalized parton distributions describing the 3D structure of the nucleon. We report the first measurement of the DVCS beam-spin asymmetry using the CLAS12 spectrometer with a 10.2 and 10.6 GeV electron beam scattering from unpolarized protons. The results greatly extend the Q^{2} and Bjorken-x phase space beyond the existing data in the valence region and provide 1600 new data points measured with unprecedented statistical uncertainty, setting new, tight constraints for future phenomenological studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The National Cancer Screening Program of South Korea for cervical cancer was expanded from women aged 30 years or above to women aged 20 years or above in 2016. This study investigated the effect of this policy on occurrence rates of cervical dysplasia, carcinoma in situ, and cervical cancer in women in their twenties. METHODS The National Health Information Database (NHID) for the years 2012 to 2019 were used. Outcome measures were monthly occurrence rates of cervical dysplasia, cervical carcinoma in situ, and cervical cancer. An interrupted time series analysis was performed to investigate whether the number of occurrences changed after policy implementation. RESULTS For cervical dysplasia, a pre-intervention decreasing trend of 0.3243 per month (p-value <0.0001) was found. The post-intervention trend did not differ significantly, although the slope increased at a rate of 0.4622 per month (p-value <0.0001). For carcinoma in situ, a trend of increase at 0.0128 per month (p-value= 0.0099) was seen before policy implementation. The post-intervention trend did not escalate but the slope showed an increasing trend of 0.0217 per month (p-value <0.0001). For cervical cancer, no significant trend was present before intervention. Occurrences of cervical cancer escalated at a rate of 0.0406 per month (p-value <0.0001) after policy implementation and the slope also showed an increasing trend at a rate of 0.0394 per month (p-value <0.0001). CONCLUSION Expanding the target population for cervical cancer screening increased detection rates for cervical cancer in women aged between 20 and 29 years.

Abstract
We report results of Λ hyperon production in semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering off deuterium, carbon, iron, and lead targets obtained with the CLAS detector and the Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility 5.014 GeV electron beam. These results represent the first measurements of the Λ multiplicity ratio and transverse momentum broadening as a function of the energy fraction (z) in the current and target fragmentation regions. The multiplicity ratio exhibits a strong suppression at high z and an enhancement at low z. The measured transverse momentum broadening is an order of magnitude greater than that seen for light mesons. This indicates that the propagating entity interacts very strongly with the nuclear medium, which suggests that propagation of diquark configurations in the nuclear medium takes place at least part of the time, even at high z. The trends of these results are qualitatively described by the Giessen Boltzmann-Uehling-Uhlenbeck transport model, particularly for the multiplicity ratios. These observations will potentially open a new era of studies of the structure of the nucleon as well as of strange baryons.

Abstract
AIM To determine the causes and diagnostic utility of musculoskeletal (MSK) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) recall examinations. MATERIALS AND METHODS An institutional review board-approved retrospective review was conducted of all MSK MRI examinations performed at a single academic institution over 10 years where radiologists requested the patient return for additional imaging. The reason for the recall was documented. Recalls were reviewed in consensus by two MSK radiologists to determine whether additional sequences resulted in a change in the final report. Recall causes were divided into four categories: (1) radiologist-related: incorrect field of view (FOV) or incorrect protocol; (2) technologist-related: incorrect FOV or incorrect/incomplete protocol performed, or technically poor-quality images; (3) patient-related motion artefact; (4) unexpected lesion discovered. Fisher's exact test was used to assess for statistical significance. RESULTS The recall rate was 0.25% (156/62,930). Of the total 129 recalls returning for imaging, 42 (33%) were radiologist-related, 45 (35%) were technologist-related, six (5%) were patient-related, and 36 (28%) had an unexpected lesion requiring additional sequences. For clinical utility, 42% resulted in a change from the initial report. Recalls due to radiologist error, incorrect FOV, or unexpected lesion caused a significant change in the final report; however, recalls due to technologist error, patient motion artefact, or incorrect protocol did not. CONCLUSION MRI MSK recalls are uncommon, and the most common reasons are incorrect FOV, incorrect protocol, and unexpected lesion. Radiologist-related errors in protocols and FOV led to a significant change in the final report and should be targeted as areas for improvement to reduce recall examinations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies have reported that the coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak led to reduced levels of physical activity, but this has been rarely studied in patients with hypertension. This study investigated the association between depressive symptoms and changes in physical activity of patients with hypertension during the COVID-19 outbreak. METHODS Data were from the Korea Community Health Survey (KCHS), conducted between August to November 2020. The KCHS is a nationwide cross-sectional survey that evaluates information on various sociodemographic, economic, and health related variables. Depressive symptoms were measured using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9. Physical activity was measured using a questionnaire inquiring whether participants experienced any changes in physical activity after the pandemic. The association between depressive symptoms and changes in physical activity level were analyzed using a multivariable logistic regression analysis. RESULTS Out of 55,203 patients, 39.6% responded that they had experienced lower levels of physical activity due to the pandemic and showed increased likelihoods of depressive symptoms (OR 1.33, 95% CI 1.14-1.54) than individuals who responded that they had performed similar levels of physical activity. This tendency was stronger in patients that did not receive treatment for hypertension (OR 2.07, 95% CI 1.02-4.23) than those who did receive treatment with marginal significance (p-value of interaction term: 0.1241). CONCLUSIONS Decreased levels of physical activity due to the outbreak was experienced by a noticeable proportion of patients with hypertension and was associated with increased likelihoods of depressive symptoms.

Abstract
PURPOSE Quality of life may be influenced by the presence of eating disorders. This study investigated the association between night eating syndrome (NES) and health-related quality of life in the general population. METHODS Data were from the 2019 Korea Community Health Survey. The presence of NES was determined using the Night Eating Questionnaire. Health-related quality of life was measured using the 3-level EuroQoL-5 Dimension Index. Multivariable linear regression analyses assessed the association between NES and health-related quality of life. Subgroup analyses were performed based on daily sleep duration. RESULTS A total of 34,434 individuals aged 19 years or older were included in the study population. Participants with NES (β = - 4.85, p < 0.001) reported poorer health-related quality of life scores than those without NES. Decreases in health-related quality of life scores among those with NES were greatest in those who slept over 8 h daily (β = - 12.03, p = 0.004), followed by those who slept less than 6 h (β = - 5.90, p = 0.006) and participants who slept between 6 and 8 h (β = - 3.40, p = 0.026) daily. CONCLUSION Individuals with NES were more likely to have a lower health-related quality of life than those without NES. These findings highlight the potential importance of considering NES in investigating the health-related quality of life. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, well-designed case-control analytic studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The COVID-19 pandemic and the associated containment policies have led to negative mental health consequences in the general population. AIMS This study investigated the association between perceived social support and depressive symptoms in Korea. METHODS Data from the Korea Community Health Survey conducted from August to November 2020 was used for this cross-sectional study. Depressive symptoms were measured using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and perceived social support was assessed based on the number of contacts that participants had identified as being available in case participants needed isolation due to COVID-19 exposure. This study included the general adult populations aged 19 years and older. The relationship between the perceived social support and depressive symptoms was analyzed using multivariable liner regression analysis. Subgroup analysis was conducted based on income. RESULTS Analysis of the data obtained from 225,453 participants indicated that PHQ-9 scores were highest in the group with 'no' perceived social support, followed by 'low', 'middle', and 'high' perceived levels of social support. Compared to individuals with 'high' perceived social support, those with 'middle' (β: .10, p-value <.001), 'low (β: .07, p-value .010), and 'no' (β: .34, p-value <.001) perceived levels of social support showed poorer depression scores. The magnitude of the relationship found was particularly strong in the low-income group. CONCLUSIONS During the COVID-19 pandemic, individuals' depression scores varied according to their perceived level of social support. Strategies that address the need of vulnerable individuals are required to reduce the potentially negative mental health consequences of the pandemic.

Abstract
We report the first measurements of deep inelastic scattering spin-dependent azimuthal asymmetries in back-to-back dihadron electroproduction in the deep inelastic scattering process. In this reaction, two hadrons are produced in opposite hemispheres along the z axis in the virtual photon-target nucleon center-of-mass frame, with the first hadron produced in the current-fragmentation region and the second in the target-fragmentation region. The data were taken with longitudinally polarized electron beams of 10.2 and 10.6 GeV incident on an unpolarized liquid-hydrogen target using the CLAS12 spectrometer at Jefferson Lab. Observed nonzero sinΔϕ modulations in ep→e^{'}pπ^{+}X events, where Δϕ is the difference of the azimuthal angles of the proton and pion in the virtual photon and target nucleon center-of-mass frame, indicate that correlations between the spin and transverse momenta of hadrons produced in the target- and current-fragmentation regions may be significant. The measured beam-spin asymmetries provide a first access in dihadron production to a previously unexplored leading-twist spin- and transverse-momentum-dependent fracture function. The fracture functions describe the hadronization of the target remnant after the hard scattering of a virtual photon off a quark in the target particle and provide a new avenue for studying nucleonic structure and hadronization.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Since adolescent with obesity is closely linked with the incidence of cardiovascular disease, it is important to identify the factors that increase the prevalence of adolescent with obesity and prevent it early. This study aimed to examine which of the demographic and lifestyle factors including sitting hours per week for purposes other than study had the greatest influence on Korean adolescents with obesity during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. METHODS We used the Korean Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey (KYRBWS) data. The primary outcome was the relationship between sitting hours and obesity during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed to examine which of the demographic and lifestyle factors including sitting hours per week for purposes other than study had the greatest influence on Korean adolescents' obesity status. RESULTS The prevalence of obesity was significantly higher during the COVID-19 than before the COVID-19 (OR, 1.268, CI:1.232-1.305). There was a significant increase in the OR for sitting hours per week for purposes other than study (OR, 1.021, 95% CI, 1.019-1.024). Compared to low household income, the OR decreased for middle (OR = 0.798, 95% CI:0.77, 0.826) and high-income household students (OR, 0.833, 95% CI: 0.803-0.865). DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION The results of this study confirmed the relationship between sit-ting hours and obesity in adolescents during the pandemic. To prevent adolescent with obesity, further studies are needed to focus on the importance of promoting health policy in adolescents to avoid the continuous rising of its prevalence and needed to understand whether the increase in obesity rates during the pandemic is a temporary trend.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION A nine-cent public taxi ride service was introduced to improve public transportation in the rural county of Seocheon, which has an ageing population. This study investigated the effect of this policy on the levels of healthcare utilization in individuals with diabetes aged 65 years or above. METHODS The Korea National Health Insurance System claims data from January 2006 to May 2013 (pre-intervention) and June 2013 to December 2014 (post-intervention) were used. The treatment group consisted of patients residing in Seocheon, and the control group consisted of patients residing in neighbouring areas with a similar demographic composition. The difference-in-difference approach was used to estimate differences in levels of healthcare utilization between the treatment and control groups before and after the intervention period. RESULTS The introduction of public taxi transportation service was associated with an increase in outpatient visits. Specifically, the number of outpatient visits to public health centres increased, whereas those to tertiary hospitals decreased. The number of inpatient visits to general hospitals also increased. CONCLUSION The results of this study confirm a relationship between the introduction of public taxi transportation services and increased healthcare utilization in older patients with diabetes in rural areas. These findings are noteworthy considering the importance of continuous care in managing chronic diseases.

Abstract
PURPOSE Chronic diseases and cardiovascular diseases (CVD) have been independently linked to poorer cancer outcomes. This study investigated whether gastric cancer patients with hypertension, diabetes, or dyslipidemia have higher mortality if diagnosed with CVD in the past year before cancer diagnosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data were obtained from the National Health Insurance database for 2002 to 2019. The study population consisted of gastric cancer patients with hypertension, diabetes, or dyslipidemia. The outcome measure was 5-year mortality in relation to incident status of CVD within 1 year before cancer diagnosis. A survival analysis was conducted using the Cox proportional hazards model. Subgroup analysis was conducted according to age, economic status, and type of hospital first visited for cancer treatment. RESULTS Of a total of 6458 individuals, 2123 (32.7%) were diagnosed with CVDs in the past year before cancer diagnosis. Compared to participants without a history of CVD, those who were diagnosed with CVD showed a higher risk of 5-year mortality (hazard ratio 1.259, 95% confidence interval 1.138-1.394). The extent to which the mortality risk differed between those with and without CVD was greater for individuals of low economic status and in those receiving their initial cancer treatment in a general hospital. CONCLUSION Patients with gastric cancer and hypertension, diabetes, or dyslipidemia diagnosed with CVD within 1 year before their cancer diagnosis had a higher mortality risk, emphasizing the importance of managing cancer patients with chronic disease and subsequent incidence of CVDs.

Abstract
We present the first measurement of dihadron angular correlations in electron-nucleus scattering. The data were taken with the CLAS detector and a 5.0 GeV electron beam incident on deuterium, carbon, iron, and lead targets. Relative to deuterium, the nuclear yields of charged-pion pairs show a strong suppression for azimuthally opposite pairs, no suppression for azimuthally nearby pairs, and an enhancement of pairs with large invariant mass. These effects grow with increased nuclear size. The data are qualitatively described by the gibuu model, which suggests that hadrons form near the nuclear surface and undergo multiple scattering in nuclei.These results show that angular correlation studies can open a new way to elucidate how hadrons form and interact inside nuclei.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although investigating patterns of cancer mortality is important in understanding the effect of cancer on population health, knowledge regarding mortality in cancer patients with disability is scarce. This study examined the association between disability status and all-cause mortality in older patients with colorectal cancer. METHODS Data were obtained from the 2008-2019 National Health Insurance Service claims data. The study population included patients with colorectal cancer aged 60 years or above. The outcome measure was all-cause 5-year and overall mortality. A survival analysis was performed using the Cox proportional hazards model to analyze the association between all-cause mortality and disability status. Subgroup analysis was conducted based on disability severity. RESULTS The study population consisted of 6340 patients, and disability was reported in 15.8% of the included individuals. Participants with disability had a higher risk of both all-cause 5-year (hazard ratio (HR) 1.21, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.07-1.37) and overall mortality (HR 1.15, 95% CI 1.03-1.28). These findings were particularly significant in individuals with severe rather than mild disability. CONCLUSION Older colorectal cancer patients with disabilities showed a higher risk of overall and 5-year all-cause mortality, which was evident in individuals with severe disabilities. The findings indicated disparities in mortality according to disability status. Further, we suggest that policies that can mediate such disparities must be strengthened.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Regurgitation following TAVR impacts all-cause mortality. So far, no quantitative comparison of regurgitation by the same core lab has been performed among the various commercially available transcatheter heart valves (THV) We aimed to compare quantitative angiographic aortic regurgitation (AR) of 11 different types of THVs.
Method
This is a multicentre retrospective corelab pooled analysis of aortograms from 2704 consecutive patients treated with 11 different THV devices. Analysis was done by quantitative videodensitometric aortography (LVOT-AR), which is an objective, accurate, and reproducible tool for assessment of AR following TAVR. This method relies on time density changes in contrast medium after injection in the ascending aorta and its regurgitation (and subsequent density increase) in the LVOT. The ratio between the areas under the two-time density curves of these regions quantifies the AR in absolute percentage. The valves evaluated include ACURATE neo2 (n=120), Lotus (n=546), Myval (n=108), VitaFlow (n=105), Evolut PRO (n=95), SAPIEN 3 (n=397), Evolut R (n=295), SAPIEN XT (n=239), ACURATE neo (n=120), Venus-A (n=113) and CoreValve (n=532). Stratification of continuous variable regurgitation into categorical variables was performed according to the following pre-determined threshold criteria: 1) none/trace regurgitation (LVOT-AR<6%); 2) mild (6%≤ LVOT-AR ≤17%); and 3) moderate or severe (LVOT-AR >17%).
Results
The addition of anti PVR sealing features to the new generations ACURATE neo2 THV proved to be effective in reduction the incidence of significant PVR In comparison with the first generation ACURATE neo.
Myval, VitaFlow and Venus-A THVs are showing promising results.
Although the incidence of moderate/severe AR has regressed over time with new generations of THVs, the incidence of mild AR is still prominent with all THVs still exhibiting mild AR with an incidence ranging between 30% and 50% with the exception of the Lotus valve that had an 19% incidence of mild AR
Conclusion
ACURATE neo2 had the lowest severe/moderate percentage of AR showing significant improvements in comparison to ACURATE neo. Myval, VitaFlow and Venus-A are promising options in the THV armamentarium. These results should be confirmed in prospective randomized, head-to-head comparisons between THVs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As the burdens related to dementia caregiving are vast, this study aimed to examine the relationship between life satisfaction and different types of burden reported by family caregivers of patients with dementia. METHODS Data from the 2019 Korea Community Health Survey were used. The association between life satisfaction and caregiving burden reported by family caregivers of patients with dementia was investigated using multivariable regression analysis. These burdens resulted from social prejudice and temporal, physical, psychological, or economic reasons. Life Satisfaction was measured using the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development Better Life Index. Subgroup analysis was performed based on the residing status of patients with dementia and the region of residence of the caregiver. RESULTS Data of 12,617 participants were analyzed. Compared to individuals with no burden, those who reported a burden due to temporal (β -0.23, p = 0.003), psychological (β -0.18, p <0.001), and economic (β -0.27, p <0.001) demands showed poorer levels of life satisfaction. These tendencies were maintained in caregivers residing with patients and those providing care for institutionalized patients. Regarding the region where the caregiver lived, for those living in rural regions, burdens related to social prejudice or economical demands were associated with poor life satisfaction. CONCLUSION Family caregivers reporting caregiving-related burdens for temporal, psychological, or economic reasons had lower life satisfaction. These findings suggest the importance of considering caregiver's different needs and conditions when implementing coping strategies when caring for individuals with dementia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A chronic disease management program was implemented in April 2012 to lower out-of-pocket costs for repeat visits to the same clinic. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between participating in this program and the onset of complications among patients with hypertension using whole-nation claims data. METHODS We used National Health Insurance Service data (2011-2018) and patients with newly detected hypertension from 2012 to 2014 were selected. Chronic disease management program reduces the out-of-pocket expenses of consultation fee from 30% to 20% when patients enroll in this program by agreeing to visit the same clinic for the treatment of hypertension or diabetes. As the dependent variable, acute myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, chronic kidney disease (CKD), and heart failure (HF) were selected. For analysis, cox proportional hazards model was used. RESULTS Total participants were 827,577, among which 102,831(12.6%) subjects participated in the chronic disease management. Participants of the chronic disease management program were more likely to show lower hazard ratios (HRs) than those of non-participants in terms of all complications (MI: HR, 0.75; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.68-0.82; stroke: HR, 0.75; 95% CI, 0.72-0.78; CKD: HR, 0.90; 95% CI, 0.85-0.96; HF: HR, 0.56; 95% CI, 0.52-0.61). CONCLUSION The results showed that participants of the chronic disease management program were less likely to have hypertension complications compared to non-participants. Enhancing the participation rate may be related to better outcomes and reducing medical expenses among patients with chronic diseases.

Abstract
This study was designed to investigate the effects of polymorphisms in RETN on remission in RA patients receiving TNF-α inhibitors. In addition, machine learning algorithms were trained to predict remission. Ten single-nucleotide polymorphisms were investigated. Univariate and multivariable analyses were performed to evaluate associations between genetic polymorphisms and the efficacy of TNF-α inhibitors. A random forest-based classification approach was used to assess the importance of different variables associated with the efficacy of TNF-α inhibitors. Various machine learning methods were used for finding vital factors and prediction of remission. The eight most significant features included in the multivariable analysis were sex, age, hypertension, sulfasalazine, rs1862513, rs3219178, rs3219177, and rs3745369. T-allele carriers of rs3219177 and males showed approximately 6.0- and 3.6-fold higher remission rates compared to those with the CC genotype and females, respectively. The elastic net algorithm was the best machine-learning method for predicting remission of patients with RA treated with TNF-α inhibitors. On the basis of the results of this study, it may be possible to design individually tailored treatment regimens to predict the efficacy of TNF-α inhibitors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Due to the increasing cost of cancer treatment, the demand for value-based healthcare is increasing. Although several value frameworks have been developed recently in the field of oncology, the nononcological benefits of minimally invasive surgery have not been addressed. This study aimed to estimate how patients value nononcological benefits in minimally invasive cancer surgery. METHODS The value that patients placed on various benefits of cancer surgery was termed throughout the study as patient value (PV). To quantize PVs for the benefits of cancer surgery, a one-tiered analytic hierarchy process model was constructed. The model includes 6 well-known surgical outcomes, including nononcological benefits. The study participants included 303 patients with cancer and family caregivers who participated in a questionnaire survey. RESULTS The PVs for "decreased operation time," "reduced length of hospital stay," and "improved cosmetic results" were 0.050, 0.044, and 0.045, respectively, whereas the PVs for "increased survival," "prevention of disease recurrence," and "avoidance of complications" were 0.366, 0.292, and 0.203, respectively. The PV placed on nononcological benefits from minimally invasive surgery was one-tenth (10.2%) of the total value. CONCLUSIONS Nononcological benefits arising from minimally invasive surgery were relatively small but nonnegligible. This value should be considered in the process of developing a value framework for cancer surgery and shared decision making.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Various subtypes of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 and variations among immune systems in different ethnicities need to be considered to understand the outcomes of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). This study aimed to provide evidence for the association between the use of antidepressants and the severity of COVID-19. METHODS We used the National Health Information Data-COVID database. Patients with one or more prescriptions of any antidepressant were selected as the exposure group. Detailed analyses were performed to determine the type of medication associated with the prognosis. RESULTS The use of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) was associated with a lower risk of severe outcomes of COVID-19, whereas the use of tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) increased the risk of poor prognosis of COVID-19. Detailed analyses showed that escitalopram was significantly associated with better clinical outcomes, and nortriptyline was linked to more severe COVID-19 outcomes. CONCLUSION This study revealed an association between antidepressants and COVID-19 prognosis. SSRIs were significantly associated with a lower risk of severe outcomes, whereas TCAs were related to the poor prognosis of COVID-19.

Abstract
Platinum-based chemotherapy regimens have been proven to be effective in various cancers; however, considerable toxicities may develop and can even lead to treatment discontinuation. Diverse factors may influence adverse treatment events, with pharmacogenetic variations being one prime example. Polymorphisms within the glutathione S-transferase pi 1 (GSTP1) gene may especially alter enzyme activity and, consequently, various toxicities in patients receiving platinum-based chemotherapy. Due to a lack of consistency in the degree of elevated complication risk, we performed a systematic literature review and meta-analysis to determine the level of platinum-associated toxicity in patients with the GSTP1 rs1695 polymorphism. We conducted a systematic search for eligible studies published before January 2022 from PubMed, Web of Science, and EMBASE based on Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to evaluate the strength of the association between the rs1695 polymorphism and various toxicities. Ten eligible studies met the inclusion criteria. The pooled ORs for hematological toxicity and neutropenia in the patients with the variant (G) allele were 1.7- and 2.6-times higher than those with the AA genotype (95% CI 1.06–2.73 and 1.07–6.35), respectively. In contrast, the rs1695 polymorphism resulted in a 44% reduced gastrointestinal toxicity compared to wild-type homozygotes. Our study found that the GSTP1 rs1695 polymorphism was significantly correlated with platinum-induced toxicities. The study also revealed that rs1695 expression exhibited tissue-specific patterns and thus yielded opposite effects in different tissues. A personalized chemotherapy treatment based on these polymorphisms may be considered for cancer patients in the future.

Abstract
Background This study investigated the association between various types of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-related fear and the level of area deprivation in Korea. Methods Different types of COVID-19-related fear were examined, namely fear of infection, fear of dying from infection, fear of public criticism, fear of a family member getting infected and fear of economic loss. The level of area deprivation was measured based on the Area Deprivation Index, which was calculated based on population census data. The association between various types of COVID-19-related fear and the level of area deprivation was analyzed using multivariable logistic regression analysis. Results This study included 199 859 individuals from the 253 administrative divisions in South Korea. Findings indicated that fear was most common in individuals residing in the most deprived areas, followed by those in the mediocre and least deprived areas (fear of infection: odds ratio (OR) 1.05, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.01–1.09; fear of dying from infection: OR 1.23, 95% CI 1.19–1.28; fear of public criticism: OR 1.20, 95% CI 1.15–1.24; fear of a family member getting infected: OR 1.12, 95% CI 1.07–1.18). Conclusions The findings suggest the need to monitor and account for area deprivation in managing the psychological health effects of the COVID-19 crisis.

Abstract
Backgrounds A desire for better outcome influences cancer patients’ willingness to pay. Whilst cancer-related costs are known to have a u-shaped distribution, the actual level of healthcare utilized by patients may vary depending on income and ability to pay. This study examined patterns of healthcare expenditures in the last year of life in patients with gastric, colorectal, lung, and liver cancer and analyzed whether differences exist in the level of end-of-life costs for cancer care according to economic status. Methods This study is a retrospective cohort study which used data from the Korean National Elderly Sampled Cohort, 2002 to 2015. End-of-life was defined as 1 year before death. Economic status was classified into three categorical variables according to the level of insurance premium (quantiles). The relationship between the dependent and independent variables were analyzed using multiple gamma regression based on the generalized estimated equation (GEE) model. Results This study included 3083 cancer patients, in which total healthcare expenditure was highest in the high-income group. End-of-life costs increased the most in the last 3 months of life. Compared to individuals in the ‘middle’ economic status group, those in the ‘high’ economic status group (RR 1.095, 95% CI 1.044–1.149) were likely to spend higher amounts. The percentage of individuals visiting a general hospital was highest in the ‘high’ economic status group, followed by the ‘middle’ and ‘low’ economic status groups. Conclusion Healthcare costs for cancer care increased at end-of-life in Korea. Patients of higher economic status tended to spender higher amounts of end-of-life costs for cancer care. Further in-depth studies are needed considering that end-of-life medical costs constitute a large proportion of overall expenditures. This study offers insight by showing that expenditures for cancer care tend to increase noticeably in the last 3 months of life and that differences exist in the amount spent according economic status.

Abstract
A pH change can enable high-energy-density RFB (redox flow battery) in an aqueous medium. Nevertheless, a membrane to prevent the ion crossover is needed. This study adopted cerium and polysulfide in an acid-base combined electrolyte with an MFI-Zeolite membrane as a separator. The increased potential with pH change is described by the OCP (open circuit potential) difference, which varies by 0.8 V for the combination of acid-acid and acid-base electrolyte. A decrease of 350 mV at the redox peak potential of Ce3+/Ce4+ and a 10 mV negative potential shift for S42-/2S22- highlights the pH effect between the combination of acid-acid and acid-base electrolyte indicates the influence of pH leading in half-cell of anodic than the opposite cathodic side. The UV-visible spectral analysis for Ce3+ and S42- ions displacement shows that cerium and sulfur ions do not migrate to each other half-cell through an MFI-Zeolite membrane. As a result, the current efficiency of 94%, voltage, and energy efficiency of 40%-43% were attained at a current density of 10 mA cm-2. Moreover, the acid-base composition of the Ce/S system showed an energy density of 378.3 Wh l -1.

Abstract
High precision measurements of the polarized electron beam-spin asymmetry in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering (SIDIS) from the proton have been performed using a 10.6 GeV incident electron beam and the CLAS12 spectrometer at Jefferson Lab. We report here a high precision multidimensional study of single π^{+} SIDIS data over a large kinematic range in Bjorken x, fractional energy, and transverse momentum of the hadron as well as photon virtualities Q^{2} ranging from 1-7 GeV^{2}. In particular, the structure function ratio F_{LU}^{sinϕ}/F_{UU} has been determined, where F_{LU}^{sinϕ} is a twist-3 quantity that can reveal novel aspects of emergent hadron mass and quark-gluon correlations within the nucleon. The data's impact on the evolving understanding of the underlying reaction mechanisms and their kinematic variation is explored using theoretical models for the different contributing transverse momentum dependent parton distribution functions.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is an important end point to measure in cancer patients and survivors. This study investigated whether differences in HRQOL exist between cancer patients, cancer survivors, and the general population, in addition to how employment status interplays in this relationship. METHODS Data were from the 2019 Korea National Health & Nutrition Examination. HRQoL was measured using the HRQoL Instrument with 8 Items (HINT-8) index, which encompasses physical, mental, social, and health-related aspects. All variables were entered simultaneously into the fully adjusted model. Multiple regression analysis was used to evaluate the association between HRQoL in cancer patients and cancer survivors compared to the general population. An interaction analysis was conducted based on current employment status. RESULTS A total of 3805 cancer patients, 109 cancer survivors, and 3609 individuals of the general population were included in this study. The HRQoL scores of cancer patients (β: - 0.0221, p-value: 0.0218) were poorer compared to the general population with statistical significance. In contrast, the HRQoL scores of cancer survivors did not show statistically significant differences. The interaction term between cancer status and economic activity status was statistically significant for cancer patients * unemployed (β: - 0.0557, p-value: 0.0020). CONCLUSION Cancer patients had lower HRQoL than the general population. Additionally, the interaction analysis reveals that unemployed cancer patients have poorer HRQoL scores than the employed general population. The results reveal that cancer patients are vulnerable to decreases in HRQoL, in particular those who are currently unemployed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study investigated the association between ability to rest at home in times of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) symptom manifestation and depressive symptoms. METHODS The 2020 Korea Community Health Survey data were used. The presence of depressive symptoms was determined using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9. The relationship between depressive symptoms and ability to rest at home was examined using logistic regression analysis. Additional analysis was performed on the reasons for the inability to stay at home. RESULTS Depressive symptoms were more common in participants who could not rest at home if symptoms manifested (4.1%) than those who could rest at home (2.7%). Participants who could not rest at home (OR 1.53, 95% CI 1.34-1.74) were more likely to have depressive symptoms, particularly when they had to report to work (OR 1.50, 95% CI 1.30-1.74) or purchase daily necessities (OR 2.40, 95% CI 1.15-5.03). CONCLUSION Inability to rest at home in the case of COVID-19 symptom manifestation was associated with depressive symptoms. The findings suggest the need to address the identified vulnerable groups to mitigate the mental health consequences of the pandemic.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Research has suggested that a correlation may exist between depressive mood and episodes of night eating. This study aimed to examine whether having episodes of night eating was associated with increased levels of depression. METHOD This study used data from the 2019 Korea Community Health Survey and the study population consisted of adults aged ≥19 years. Depression levels were measured using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9. We investigated the patients' general characteristics using t-tests and analysis of variance. The association between depression levels and episodes of night eating was analyzed using a multivariable linear regression analysis. Subgroup analysis was conducted based on daily sleep duration. RESULTS We analyzed 34,358 individuals and found higher average depression scores (β: 4.99, p < .001) in those with episodes of night eating than those without. Large effect sizes were found for differences in depression scores between participants with and without episodes of night eating. The magnitude of this increase was particularly pronounced in individuals who reported 9 or more hours of sleep per day. DISCUSSION An association was found between levels of depression and episodes of night eating as individuals with episodes of night eating were more likely to have higher depression scores. Our findings suggest the potential need to consider night eating when addressing the mental health of the general population.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Several scoring systems predict mortality in alcohol-associated hepatitis (AH), including the Maddrey discriminant function (mDF) and model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) score developed in the United States, Glasgow alcoholic hepatitis score in the United Kingdom, and age, bilirubin, international normalized ratio, and creatinine score in Spain. To date, no global studies have examined the utility of these scores, nor has the MELD-sodium been evaluated for outcome prediction in AH. In this study, we assessed the accuracy of different scores to predict short-term mortality in AH and investigated additional factors to improve mortality prediction. METHODS Patients admitted to hospital with a definite or probable AH were recruited by 85 tertiary centers in 11 countries and across 3 continents. Baseline demographic and laboratory variables were obtained. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality at 28 and 90 days. RESULTS In total, 3,101 patients were eligible for inclusion. After exclusions (n = 520), 2,581 patients were enrolled (74.4% male, median age 48 years, interquartile range 40.9-55.0 years). The median MELD score was 23.5 (interquartile range 20.5-27.8). Mortality at 28 and 90 days was 20% and 30.9%, respectively. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for 28-day mortality ranged from 0.776 for MELD-sodium to 0.701 for mDF, and for 90-day mortality, it ranged from 0.773 for MELD to 0.709 for mDF. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for mDF to predict death was significantly lower than all other scores. Age added to MELD obtained only a small improvement of AUC. DISCUSSION These results suggest that the mDF score should no longer be used to assess AH's prognosis. The MELD score has the best performance in predicting short-term mortality.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Unexpected changes in daily routines caused by the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic may affect psychological health. This study investigated the association between various types of COVID-19-related fear and the subjective level of disturbance in daily activities experienced by individuals. METHODS This cross-sectional study used the Korea Community Health Survey conducted from August through November 2020. COVID-19-related fear included fear of infection, death, public criticism, family members getting infected, and economic loss. The subjective level of disruption in daily activities was measured using a 0-100 numeric rating scale developed by the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency. Multivariable linear regression was used to analyze the associations between the independent and dependent variables. A subgroup analysis was performed based on income level. RESULTS Participants who reported fear of infection (β=-3.37, p<0.001), death (β=-0.33, p=0.030), public criticism (β=-1.63, p<0.001), a family member getting infected (β=-1.03, p<0.001), and economic loss (β=-3.52, p<0.001) experienced more disturbances in daily activities. The magnitude of this association was most significant in the lowest-income group. CONCLUSIONS Individuals reporting COVID-19-related fear experienced higher levels of subjective disruption in daily activities.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Nuclear factor of activated T cells C2 (NFATC2) is known as a member of the transcription family and enhances tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) synthesis in human T cells at the gene transcription level. Although NFATC2 has a potential role in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) progression and treatment, no study has investigated the association between NFATC2 gene polymorphisms and response status in RA patients receiving TNF-α inhibitors. This study aimed to examine the effects of polymorphisms in NFATC2, a TNF-α transcription factor, on response to TNF-α inhibitors. METHODS This prospective observational study was performed in two centers. Seven single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were investigated. Good responders were defined as patients with disease activity score (DAS)28 ≤3.2 after 6 months of treatment. Logistic regression analyses were used to investigate the association between genetic polymorphisms and response to the treatment. To test the model's goodness of fit, a Hosmer-Lemeshow test was performed. RESULTS This study included 98 patients, among whom 46 showed favorable responses to the treatment. Patients with hypertension revealed an approximately three-fold lower response to TNF-α inhibitors compared to those without hypertension (23.5 vs. 76.5%; P = 0.049). After adjusting for covariates, C allele carriers of NFATC2 rs3787186 exhibited approximately three-fold lower rates of treatment response compared to those with TT genotype (P = 0.037). The Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed that the fitness of the multivariable analysis model was satisfactory (χ2 = 9.745; 8 degrees of freedom; P = 0.283). CONCLUSION This study suggested an association between the C allele of rs3787186 and treatment response in RA patients receiving TNF-α inhibitors.
