Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesA Comparative Analysis of TSH Levels between Patients with Normal Sinus Rhythm and those with Atrial FibrillationJi Yeon Chang, Jae Kyung Kim, Seung Hee HongAtrial Fibrillation (AF) is the most prevalent persistent cardiac arrhythmia observed within the general population and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Despite the rising global prevalence of AF, the majority of existing studies have primarily focused on white populations. For that reason, we have used a Korean hospital patient's blood test results to examine the link between AF … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 3 · 30 Jul 2024 · 4,482 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesPrevalence of Diarrhea-Causing Pathogens in South Korea Analyzed Using Molecular Diagnostic MethodsYonghee Lee, Jae Kyung KimGastrointestinal inflammation remains a prevalent global health concern. Prompt and accurate diagnosis of the condition is required to mitigate health risks in immunocompromised individuals and alleviate the economic burden linked to treatment and pathogen isolation. Challenges posed by traditional culture tests, such as long detection time and inability to isolate low-abundance organisms, can be overcome using molecular diagnostic methods, which … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 25 Jul 2024 · 5,012 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesTrends in the Causes of Meningitis/Encephalitis Analyzed Using the BioFire FilmArray PanelYoung Jun Hong, Bo Kyeung Jung, Jae Kyung KimCerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) infections can be caused by various pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Therefore, accurate and timely detection of infectious agents is critical for the effective treatment of CSF infections. The FilmArray Meningitis/Encephalitis (M/E) panel is a potential complementary diagnostic tool for detecting CSF pathogens. The aim of this study was to identify trends in the causes of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 3 · 25 Jul 2024 · 4,887 accessesView PDFCite
