Journal ArticleDOI
Histological improvement following administration of autologous bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells for alcoholic cirrhosis: a pilot study
Yoon Ok Jang,Young Ju Kim,Soon Koo Baik,Moon Young Kim,Young Woo Eom,Mee Yon Cho,Hong Jun Park,So Yeon Park,Bo Ra Kim,Jae Woo Kim,Hyun Soo Kim,Sang Ok Kwon,Eunhee Choi,Yong Man Kim +13 more
TL;DR: In experimental models, bone marrow‐derived mesenchymal stem cells have the capacity to differentiate into hepatocytes and exhibit antifibrotic effects, but there have been no studies in humans with alcoholic cirrhosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Histological subclassification of cirrhosis using the Laennec fibrosis scoring system correlates with clinical stage and grade of portal hypertension.
Moon Young Kim,Mee Yon Cho,Soon Koo Baik,Hong Jun Park,Hyo Keun Jeon,Chong Kun Im,Chan Sik Won,Jae Woo Kim,Hyun Soo Kim,Sang Ok Kwon,Min Seob Eom,Seung Hwan Cha,Young Ju Kim,Sei Jin Chang,Samuel S. Lee +14 more
TL;DR: Histological subclassification of cirrhosis by the Laennec fibrosis scoring system is tightly correlated with both the clinical stage of cir rhosis and grade of portal hypertension, suggesting that Cirrhosis should be subclassified into different stages according to its histological severity.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of endoscopic retrograde pancreatography in the treatment of traumatic pancreatic duct injury.
Hyun Soo Kim,Dong Ki Lee,Il Kim,Soon Koo Baik,Sang Ok Kwon,Joong Wha Park,Nam Cheon Cho,Byung Seon Rhoe +7 more
TL;DR: Early ERP is one of the most useful methods for demonstrating MPD injury and assists with treatment planning based on the degree of pancreatic duct injury, according to patients who underwent ERP earlier.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acute hemodynamic effects of octreotide and terlipressin in patients with cirrhosis: a randomized comparison
Soon Koo Baik,Phil Ho Jeong,Sang Won Ji,Byung Su Yoo,Hyun Soo Kim,Dong Ki Lee,Sang Ok Kwon,Young Ju Kim,Joong Wha Park,Sei Jin Chang,Samuel S. Lee +10 more
TL;DR: Results suggest that terlipressin may have more sustained hemodynamic effects in patients with bleeding varices, compared with octreotide, which only transiently reduced portal pressure and flow, whereas the effects of ter Lipressin were sustained.
Risk factors for cholecystitis after metal stent placement in malignant biliary obstruction{A figure is presented}
Ki Tae Suk,Hyun Soo Kim,Jae Woo Kim,Soon Koo Baik,Sang Ok Kwon,Ho Gak Kim,Don Haeng Lee,Byung Moo Yoo,Jin Hong Kim,Young Soo Moon,Dong Ki Lee +10 more
TL;DR: It was demonstrated that an obstruction across the cystic duct orifice by tumor and the presence of gallbladder stone were risk factors for the development of cholecystitis after metal stent placement.
