Article Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the association between domain-specific physical activity (PA) and diabetes in Korean adults. We analyzed 26,653 men and women (aged > 18 years) from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2014-2018). PA was measured using a validated Global PA Questionnaire. Multivariable logistic regression was used to estimate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) after adjustment for various confounders. Transport PA accounted for the majority of total PA (46%, men; 58%, women), followed by leisure-time PA (30%; 22%) and work PA (24%; 20%). In men, ORs (95% CI) of diabetes comparing ≥ 600 metabolic task of equivalent (MET)-min/week vs. no activity were 0.82 (0.71-0.95) for leisure-time PA, 0.85 (0.75-0.96) for transport PA, and 0.88 (0.78-0.99) for leisure-time + transport PA. In women, ORs (95% CI) of diabetes comparing the same groups were 0.73 (0.60-0.89) for leisure-time PA, 0.97 (0.85-1.10) for transport PA, and 0.88 (0.78-1.00) for leisure-time + transport PA. However, work PA showed no association with diabetes. In conclusion, leisure-time PA was inversely associated with diabetes in both men and women, while transport PA was inversely associated only in men. But work PA was not associated with diabetes in Korean adults.

Evidence of Overlapping Roles Between Clinics and Hospitals in Primary Care.

Department of Preventive Medicine, Asan Medical Center, University of Ulsan College of Medicine, Seoul, Korea.
Background: Clinics and hospitals in South Korea are often perceived as competitors to each other. This study examines the overlapping roles in providing primary care provision between clinics and hospitals by analyzing the healthcare facility type where patients first receive diagnoses of hypertension (HTN) or diabetes mellitus (DM). We also explore the characteristics of patients that influence their choice of healthcare facility and compare healthcare utilization patterns in the first year post-diagnosis by facility type.

Division of Cardiology, Asan Medical Center, University of Ulsan College of Medicine, Seoul, Republic of Korea.
Objective: To compare the clinical outcomes of double-valve replacement (DVR) using bovine pericardial and porcine bioprostheses, using a nationwide administrative claims database.
Methods: Adult patients (age ≥40 years) who underwent bioprosthetic DVR between 2003 and 2018 were identified from the Korean National Health Insurance Service database. The outcomes of interest were all-cause mortality, cardiac mortality, and valve-related events, including the incidences of reoperation, endocarditis, systemic thromboembolism, and major bleeding.

Background: Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by severe multisystem comorbidities and increased mortality. Although growth hormone therapy (GHT) is widely used as standard care, population-based evidence on its long-term safety, particularly in relation to mortality and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), remains limited. We aimed to investigate the associations between GHT duration, mortality, and T2DM incidence in PWS.

Background: This study aimed to investigate the association between adiponectin levels and the incidence of metabolic dysfunction- associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and to explore the predictive value of adiponectin in the onset of these conditions.
Methods: A 17-year follow-up of 35,026 individuals from the Korean Cancer Prevention Study-II biobank cohort (2004-2021) was conducted. Adiponectin levels were categorized into quintiles.
