Hyun Ae Lee, Hye-Kyung Jung, Tae Oh Kim, Ju-Ran Byeon, Eui-Sun Jeong, Hyun-Ji Cho, Chung Hyun Tae, Chang Mo Moon, Seong-Eun Kim, Ki-Nam Shim, Sung-Ae Jung
Korean J Intern Med. 2022;37(6):1176-1185. Published online November 1, 2022
Background/Aims: Acute upper gastrointestinal (UGI) bleeding is a significant emergency situation with a mortality rate of 2% to 10%. Therefore, initial risk stratification is important for proper management. We aimed to evaluate the role of contrast-enhanced multidetector computed tomography (MDCT)..

Tae-Min Rhee, Hack-Lyoung Kim, Sohee Oh, Woo-Hyun Lim, Jae-Bin Seo, Woo-Young Chung, Sang-Hyun Kim, Myung-A Kim, Joo-Hee Zo
Korean J Intern Med. 2019;34(3):539-548. Published online March 16, 2018
Background/Aims: Although brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) has been validated as a novel method to predict the cardiovascular risk in general population, the relevance of baPWV to the traditional risk scores has not been clearly revealed. This study investigated the relationship between b..
