Abstract
BACKGROUND There are increasing reports of paradoxical psoriasiform diseases secondary to anti-tumour necrosis factor (TNF) agents. AIMS To determine the risks of paradoxical psoriasiform diseases secondary to anti-TNF agents in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). METHODS A nationwide population study was performed using the Korea National Health Insurance Claim Data. A total of 50 502 patients with IBD were identified between 2007 and 2016. We compared 5428 patients who were treated with any anti-TNF agent for more than 6 months (anti-TNF group) and 10 856 matched controls who had never taken anti-TNF agents (control group). RESULTS Incidence of psoriasis was significantly higher in the anti-TNF group (36.8 per 10 000 person-years) compared to the control group (14.5 per 10 000 person-years) (hazard ratio [HR] 2.357, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.668-3.331). Palmoplantar pustulosis (HR 9.355, 95% CI 2.754-31.780) and psoriatic arthritis (HR 2.926, 95% CI 1.640-5.218) also showed higher risks in the anti-TNF group. In subgroup analyses, HRs for psoriasis by IBD subtype were 2.549 (95% CI 1.658-3.920) in Crohn's disease and 2.105 (95% CI 1.155-3.836) in ulcerative colitis. Interestingly, men and younger (10-39 years) patients have significantly higher risks of palmoplantar pustulosis (HR 19.682 [95% CI 3.867-100.169] and HR 14.318 [95% CI 2.915-70.315], respectively), whereas women and older (≥40 years) patients showed similar rates between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS The risks of psoriasiform diseases are increased by anti-TNF agents in patients with IBD. Among psoriasiform diseases, the risk of palmoplantar pustulosis shows the biggest increase particularly in male and younger patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies on the association between depression and risk of tuberculosis (TB) are lacking. OBJECTIVE To determine the association between depression and risk of TB. METHODS From a nationwide database, patients with depression were identified to form the exposure cohort between 2003 and 2013. The control cohort comprised an equivalent number of subjects without any mood disorders, with each subject age- and sex-matched to a patient in the exposure cohort. The incidence of TB was identified in the exposure cohort and control cohort between 2003 and 2013. A multivariable Cox proportional hazards model was used to estimate the association between depression and the subsequent risk of TB. RESULTS A total of 32 372 patients with depression and the same number of controls were identified. The risk of TB in the depression cohort was 2.63-fold (95%CI 1.74-3.96) higher than in the control cohort. When the depression was classified as 'mild' and 'severe', the risk of TB was proportional to depression severity. CONCLUSIONS Patients with depression are at a higher risk for TB, and a dose-response relationship exists between depression and the subsequent risk of TB.

Abstract
AIMS Short-term intensive insulin therapy (IIT) and gastric bypass surgery are both interventions that can improve beta-cell function, reduce insulin resistance and induce remission of type 2 diabetes. Whereas gastric bypass yields an enhanced glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) response that may contribute to its metabolic benefits, the effect of short-term IIT on the incretin response is unclear. Thus, we sought to evaluate the impact of IIT on GLP-1 and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) secretion in early type 2 diabetes. METHODS In this study, 63 patients (age 59±8.3 years, baseline A1c 6.8±0.7%, diabetes duration 3.0±2.1 years) underwent 4 weeks of IIT (basal insulin detemir and pre-meal insulin aspart). GLP-1, GIP and glucagon responses were assessed by the area-under-the-curve (AUC) of these hormones on oral glucose tolerance tests at baseline and 1-day after the completion of therapy. Beta-cell function was assessed by Insulin Secretion-Sensitivity Index-2 (ISSI-2), with insulin resistance measured by Homeostasis Model Assessment (HOMA-IR). RESULTS As expected, comparing the post-therapy oral glucose tolerance test to that at baseline, IIT increased ISSI-2 (P=0.02), decreased HOMA-IR (P<0.001), and reduced AUCglucagon (P<0.001). Of note, however, IIT had no significant impact on AUCGLP-1 (P=0.24) and reduced AUCGIP (P=0.02). CONCLUSION Despite improving beta-cell function, insulin resistance and glucagonemia, short-term IIT does not change GLP-1 secretion and decreases the GIP response to an oral glucose challenge in early type 2 diabetes. Thus, the beneficial impact of this therapy on glucose homeostasis is not attributable to its effects on incretin secretion.

Abstract
SETTING Tuberculosis (TB) remains one of the main concerns in global health. One of the main threats to treatment success is patient non-adherence to anti-tuberculosis treatment. OBJECTIVE To identify the relation between social conditions and treatment adherence in a prospective cohort setting in an intermediate TB burden country. DESIGN To identify associations between poor adherence and social conditions, including educational level, type of residence and occupation, we constructed hierarchical logistic regression models. RESULTS A total of 551 participants were included in the study. Low educational levels, poor housing and occupations in the construction and manufacturing industries and service sectors were associated with poor adherence; this association was likely to be differentiated by previous history of anti-tuberculosis treatment. CONCLUSION Policy making should focus on improving the social conditions of patients by working towards better housing conditions and providing health promoting working conditions to enable treatment adherence.

Abstract
The use of chlorella as an immune stimulant to enhance nonspecific host defense mechanisms or as an antimicrobial to inhibit bacterial growth has been reported. Thus, the aim of the present study was to clarify the effect of recombinant chlorella supplementation on growth performance, meat quality, and the blood profile, excreta microflora, and nutrient digestibility in broilers. A total of 375 one-day-old ROSS 308 broilers (male and female) were allotted to 5 dietary treatments using 5 cages with 15 chicks per cage. Treatments were: 1) NC, basal diet supplemented with 1.0% E. coli fermented liquor (EFL); 2) PC1, 0.2% EFL with chlorella; 3) PC2, 1.0% EFL with chlorella; 4) T1, 0.2% EFL with chlorella (anti-viral); and 5) T2, 1.0% EFL with chlorella (anti-viral). The broilers in the T2 treatment groups showed higher body weight gain (BGW) by 2.55% (P < 0.01) and lower feed conversion ratio (FCR) by 2.75% (P < 0.05) compared with those fed the control NC treatment group. Moreover, the blood contents of blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine, and IgA in the broilers of the T2 treatment group were significantly increased by 28.12, 23.07, and 29.72%, respectively -more than those found in the broilers of the NC treatment group (P < 0.01). In contrast, the LDL/C in the blood from the animals in the T2 treatment group was significantly decreased by 23.23% - more than that in the blood from the NC broilers (P < 0.05). Based on these results, we suggest that the dietary supplementation of broilers with recombinant chlorella could improve their growth performance, increase the concentration of IgA and apparently metabolizable nitrogen in the blood, and decrease ammonia emissions. Therefore, our findings have important implications for the effect of recombinant chlorella supplementation through increasing the concentration of IgA and the level of metabolizable nitrogen.

Abstract
AIM To compare the risks of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and all-cause mortality associated with sulfonylurea (SU), dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor (DPP4i) and thiazolidinedione (TZD) as add-on medications to metformin (MET) therapy in people with Type 2 diabetes. METHODS We identified 40 263 individuals who used SU (n = 11 582), DPP4i (n = 26 623) or TZD (n = 2058) in addition to MET between January 2013 and June 2015 from the database of the Korean National Health Insurance, the single-payer healthcare system in South Korea. Cox proportional hazard models were used to estimate hazard ratios for major CVD event (coronary artery disease, heart failure, stroke or transient ischaemic attack) development and all-cause mortality by second-line anti-diabetes medication type. Age, sex, duration of MET monotherapy, calendar year and comorbid conditions were adjusted as potential confounders. RESULTS The observed numbers of CVD events (total observed person-time) were 485 (18 778 person-years) for MET + SU, 744 (40 374 person-years) for MET + DPP4i and 60 (3014 person-years) for MET + TZD users. Compared with MET + SU users, the fully adjusted hazard ratios for CVD events were 0.79 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.71-0.89] for MET + DPP4i users and 0.85 (95% CI: 0.65-1.11) for MET + TZD users. The corresponding hazard ratios for all-cause mortality were 0.84 (95% CI: 0.66-1.07) for MET + DPP4i users and 0.67 (95% CI: 0.35-1.28) for MET + TZD users. CONCLUSION Analysis of Korea National Health Insurance database showed that MET + DPP4i treatment for diabetes had a lower CVD risk than MET + SU treatment.

Abstract
The first systematic response evaluation criteria were established by WHO, based on the tumor size changes shortly after the computed tomography (CT) technique became available to the daily practice. RECIST, a simplified version of WHO criteria, and its newer version, RECIST1.1 are the currently available international response evaluation criteria in solid tumors and remains based on tumor size changes. While the introduction of molecularly targeted drugs has significantly improved the survival in patient with sarcomas, the evaluation of tumor response has become more complicated. Increasing number of studies have reported the lack of shrinkage in responding tumors and raised concerns of significant underestimation of responses using RECIST. The first such observation was made on gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) treated with imatinib. In GISTs responding to imatinib, the degree of contrast enhancement on CT typically decreases significantly compared with the baseline, and, regardless of whether tumors shrink, heterogeneous hyperattenuating tumors become homogeneous hypoattenuating tumors with a smaller enhancing solid component. In current oncology practice, CT is a widely accepted method of evaluating tumor response. CT images are relatively simple to acquire and can be reasonably reproduced with no significant technical obstacles. FDG-PET is highly sensitive and specific in identifying responding sarcomas. It has mostly been used as a problem solver and for those with marginally resectable GIST. More recently, the utility of whole body MRI is undergoing exploration. This article discusses the traditional size-based response evaluation criteria, and introduces new evidence based response evaluation based on changes in morphology in addition to changes in tumor size on CT images, and whole body imaging is introduced at the end.

Abstract
PURPOSE The objective of the study was to compare the psychiatric and behavioral side effect (PBSE) profiles of both older and newer antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) in children and adolescent patients with epilepsy. METHOD We used logistic regression analysis to test the correlation between 83 non-AED/patient related potential predictor variables and the rate of PBSE. We then compared for each AED the rate of PBSEs and the rate of PBSEs that led to intolerability (IPBSE) while controlling for non-AED predictors of PBSEs. RESULTS 922 patients (≤18 years old) were included in our study. PBSEs and IPBSEs occurred in 13.8% and 11.2% of patients, respectively. Overall, a history of psychiatric condition, absence seizures, intractable epilepsy, and frontal lobe epilepsy were significantly associated with increased PBSE rates. Levetiracetam (LEV) had the greatest PBSE rate (16.2%). This was significantly higher compared to other AEDs. LEV was also significantly associated with a high rate of IPBSEs (13.4%) and dose-decrease rates due to IPBSE (6.7%). Zonisamide (ZNS) was associated with significantly higher cessation rate due to IPBSE (9.1%) compared to other AEDs. CONCLUSION Patients with a history of psychiatric condition, absence seizures, intractable epilepsy, or frontal lobe epilepsy are more likely to develop PBSE. PBSEs appear to occur more frequently in adolescent and children patients taking LEV compared to other AEDs. LEV-attributed PBSEs are more likely to be associated with intolerability and subsequent decrease in dose. The rate of ZNS-attributed IPBSEs is more likely to be associated with complete cessation of AED.
