Effect of atrial fibrillation in Asian patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention with drug-eluting stents for stable coronary artery disease: Results from a Korean nationwide study
Although the prevalence of atrial fibrillation (AF) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are increasing in Asia, there is a paucity of data concerning the effect of AF in Asian patients undergoing PCI with drug-eluting stents (DESs). Furthermore, the majority of previous studies investigating the effect of AF on prognosis following PCI have exclusively evaluated patients with myocardial infarction (MI). We aimed to evaluate the effect of AF on clinical outcomes of Asian patients undergoing PCI with DES for coronary artery disease (CAD) excluding acute MI. From national health insurance claims data in South Korea, ...

Association between volume of surgery for acute hemorrhagic stroke and mortality
This study aimed to investigate the association between volume of surgery and mortality in relation to interventions for acute hemorrhagic stroke, namely craniotomy and trephination. We obtained data on acute hemorrhagic stroke patients for a 5-year period (2009–2013) from the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service. Hospitals were classified into 3 categories according to volume of surgery (low, medium, high). To avoid intentionally setting a cutoff, we placed the hospitals in order from those with high volume of surgery to those with low volume of surgery and divided them into 3 groups (tertile) according to th...
