Authors: Kang Sunny , Ji Sangho , Kim Jiwoo , So Youngjo , Kim Cheol-Hyun , Lee Sangkwan
Published: June 2024

Introduction: Gullain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is a rapid, symmetric muscle weakness that often follows respiratory or gastrointestinal infections. Standard treatments include plasmapheresis and intravenous immunoglobulin, but outcomes can vary among patients. The integration of Korean medicine, notably unexplored in quantitative assessments of balance and walking, provides a novel approach to treatment.Case presentation: A 53-year-old male diagnosed with GBS presented to the hospital 8 days post-onset. He received treatments consisting of acupuncture, electroacupuncture, and rehabilitation over a period of approximately 4 weeks. Upon admission, the patient exhibited symptoms of both limb weakness and paresthesia, requiring the use of a wheelchair. Post-treatment, muscle strength and balance were significantly improved, leading to the restoration of independent ambulation, including running.Conclusions: This case illustrates the potential of integrated Korean and conventional medical treatments to accelerate recovery in GBS patients, overcoming typical prognosis timelines. The improvements in gait and balance were substantiated by quantitative assessments, suggesting a promising area for further research into the effects of combined therapeutic approaches to GBS recovery.

A 69-year-old female diagnosed with idiopathic Parkinson’s disease and treated with anti-Parkinsonian medications, including levodopa, for 7 years presented with complaints of wearing-off phenomenon and delayed onset of medication efficacy, resulting in postural instability and feeling of severe exhaustion. The patient underwent a 50-day course of treatment with Bonoesikpungjigyeong-tang formula. The effects of the treatment were evaluated by recording the average time to onset of medication efficacy, the average time to medication wearing-off, and discomfort due to wearing-off phenomenon. Postural instability was assessed using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). The patient’s overall quality of life was assessed using the EQ-5D-3L. After 50 days of treatment, the average time to onset of medication efficacy decreased, and the average time to medication wearing-off increased. Discomfort due to wearing-off phenomenon and postural instability decreased. This case suggests that Bonoesikpungjigyeong-tang might be an alternative for improving discomfort caused by long-term levodopa intake.

Published: June 2024

Background: Bronchiectasis is a chronic respiratory condition leading to recurrent respiratory infections. Despite the use of antibiotics and other standard treatments, managing bronchiectasis remains challenging due to the frequent recurrence of airway infections and concerns about antimicrobial resistance. Given these challenges, traditional Korean medicine (TKM) has gained attention due to its potential to reduce the frequency of respiratory infections, possibly minimizing the need for antibiotics.Case report: A 59-year-old female with bronchiectasis experienced recurrent pneumonia and was treated with antibiotics for over 2 weeks without any significant improvement in clinical symptoms. She received comprehensive Korean medicine treatment, including herbal medicine (Sikyungbanha-tang combined with Bigwabojungikki-tang-gami), acupuncture, and Chuna manual therapy, for pulmonary rehabilitation. Post-treatment, clinically meaningful improvements were observed in symptoms, serum C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, and bronchopneumonic lesions on chest X-rays.Conclusion: This case suggests that complex traditional Korean medicine treatments for recurrent chronic airway inflammation due to bronchiectasis can lead to clinically significant improvements in symptoms and help to prevent recurrence.

Published: June 2024

The aim of this research is to determine and analyze the arrangements for archival depreciation in order to improve the performance of local governments from a legislative perspective in Indonesia. This research uses normative juridical research methods. In this research, two research approaches were used, namely the statutory approach and the conceptual approach. The results of this research are Article 27 of Law Number 43 of 2009 concerning Archives and Article 12 of Government Regulation Number 28 of 2012 concerning Implementation of Law Number 43 of 2009 concerning Archives regulating procedures for depreciation of archives. However, there are differences between the two articles in terms of archive depreciation criteria. Article 27 of the Archives Law regulates that depreciation of archives is carried out based on the archive's use value. The use value of archives is the benefit obtained from archives for organizations or society. Meanwhile, Article 12 PP Archives regulates that archive depreciation is carried out based on the archive's use value and organizational needs. Organizational needs are the organization's need to use archives in carrying out its duties and functions. These differences in archive depreciation criteria can cause confusion and uncertainty for local governments in carrying out archive depreciation. Regional governments do not know which laws and regulations must be complied with in carrying out archive depreciation.

In real-world application, the identification characteristic of face images has been widely explored, ranging from National ID card, International passport, driving license amongst others. In spite of the numerous investigation of person identification from face images, there exists only a limited amount of research on detecting and estimating the demographic information contained in face images such as age, gender, and ethnicity. This research aim at detecting the age/age range of individual based on the facial image. In this research, a generalized neuron (GN), which is a modification of the simple neuron, is used, to overcome some of the problems of artificial neural network (ANN) and improve its training and testing performance. The GN is trained with discrete wavelet transform (DWT) features obtained after the application of Canny edge detection algorithm on the face Image. Validating the technique on FGNET face images reveals that the frequency domain features obtained using the DWT captures the wrinkles on the face region, which represents a distinguishing factor on the face as humans grow older. The empirical results demonstrates that the GN outperforms the simple neuron, with detection rate of 93.5%, training time of 96.30secs, matching time of 14secs and root mean square error of 0.0523. The experimental results suggest that the GN model performs comparably and could be adopted for detecting human ages.

Education across the globe is under increasing pressure to prepare learners who are ready to address numerous problems and challenges facing humanity in the 21st century and beyond. One of the notable factors that has been advanced is the lack of adequate and competent teachers able to nurture critical thinking and innovation skills. This paper explores the importance of critical thinking and strategies to develop them from early years. The study discusses the role of constructivism as a theory advocating active participation of learners and assuring that learning is significant. This presentation addresses many possible features and forms of critical thinking and the pedagogies that support learners in acquiring new competencies and skills to tackle 21st century challenges. The study concludes that if the world is determined to meet 2030 goals, early years educators should ensure adequate caregiving, and schools are expected to offer adequate methodologies for the development of skills of creative thinking as early as possible.

The aim of the paper is to present the distributed system for the unwanted event detection regarding inmates in the closed penitentiary facilities. The system processes large number of data streams from IP cameras (up to 180) and performs the event detection using Deep Learning neural networks. Both audio and video streams are processed to produce the classification outcome. The application-specific data set has been prepared for training the neural models. For the particular event types 3DCNN and YOLO architectures have been used. The system was thoroughly tested both in the laboratory conditions and in the actual facility. Accuracy of the particular event detection is on the satisfactory level, though problems with the particular events have been reported and will be dealt with in the future.

Objective: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) has been previously linked to dementia. This study examines the association of MetS with neuroimaging and cognition in dementia-free adults, offering insight into the impact of MetS on brain health prior to dementia onset.

Research Design and Methods: We included 37,395 dementia-free adults from the UK Biobank. MetS was defined as ≥3 of the following components: elevated waist-circumference, triglycerides, blood-pressure, HbA1c, or reduced HDL-cholesterol. Multivariable-adjusted linear regression was used to assess associations of MetS with structural neuroimaging and cognitive domains.

Results: MetS was associated with lower total brain (Standardised Beta-coefficient (β): -0.06, 95%CI: -0.08, -0.04), grey matter (β: -0.10, 95%CI: -0.12, -0.08) and hippocampal volumes (Left-β: -0.03, 95%CI: -0.05, -0.01; Right-β: -0.04, 95%CI: -0.07, -0.02), and greater white matter hyperintensities (WMH) volume (β: 0.08, 95%CI: 0.06, 0.11). MetS participants performed poorer on cognitive tests of working memory (β: -0.10, 95%CI: -0.13, -0.07), verbal-declarative memory (β: -0.08, 95%CI: -0.11, -0.05), processing speed (β: -0.06, 95%CI: -0.09, -0.04), verbal and numerical reasoning (β: -0.07, 95%CI: -0.09, -0.04), non-verbal reasoning (β: -0.03, 95%CI: -0.05, -0.01), and on executive function, where higher scores indicated poorer performance (β: 0.05, 95%CI: 0.03, 0.08). An increasing number of MetS components were also associated with lower brain volumes, greater WMH, and poorer cognition across all domains.

Conclusions: MetS was associated poorer brain health in dementia-free adults, characterised by lower brain volumes, greater vascular pathology, and poorer cognition. Further research is necessary to understand whether reversal or improvement of MetS can improve brain health.
