Usefulness of nasal cavity evaluation before high-resolution esophageal manometry in high-risk patients
Hyun Jin Min, Jae Yong Park
Korean J Intern Med. 2024;39(1):86-94. Published online November 30, 2023
Background/Aims: A catheter is inserted through the nasal cavity during high-resolution esophageal manometry (HRM), which may cause adverse events such as pain or epistaxis. Despite these possible safety considerations, studies on this subject are very limited. We aimed to investigate the usefulness..

Laboratory and radiological discrimination between tuberculous and malignant pleural effusions with high adenosine deaminase levels
Jaehee Lee, Ji Eun Park, Sun Ha Choi, Hyewon Seo, Sang Yub Lee, Jae Kwang Lim, Seung Soo Yoo, Shin Yup Lee, Seung Ick Cha, Jae Yong Park, Chang Ho Kim
Korean J Intern Med. 2022;37(1):137-145. Published online July 15, 2021
Background/Aims: Pleural fluid adenosine deaminase (ADA) levels are useful in discriminating tuberculous pleural effusions (TPEs) from malignant pleural effusions (MPEs). However, some patients with MPE exhibit high-ADA levels, which may mimic TPEs. There is limited data regarding the differential d..
