    Abstract This study aims to provide a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying the relationship between the experiences of compassion and job performance. Specifically, we test if positive emotion and job crafting could help explain the experience of the compassion-job performance link. Using a sample of 312 employees in large-sized domestic companies located in South Korea, we found that the experience of compassion was positively related to job performance. In addition, we adopted the motivational approach to demonstrate that the positive relationship between the experience of compassion and job performance was sequentially mediated by positive emotion and job crafting. Our study advances the literature on workplace compassion by introducing job crafting as a novel driver in explaining the positive effects of compassion and contributes novel insights into the mechanisms underlying the relationship between compassion and job performance. Our findings also suggest that to enhance employees' job performance and facilitate employees' proactive behaviors (i.e., job crafting), organizations must foster a compassionate work environment by placing high importance on compassion.

    Abstract Transcriptional dysregulation is a prominent contributor to the pathogenesis of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. Lakhia et al. identified an enhancer landscape associated with disease genes and its pathologic role in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease to understand cyst formation. This commentary discusses these findings reported by Lakhia et al. in the broader contexts of transcriptional programming and the identification of potential autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease therapeutic targets.

    Abstract This article proposes a new discrete collision handling method (DCH method) that can be used for resolving tanglements in clothing simulation, based on the existing continuous collision handling methods (CCH methods). The proposed method performs intersection analysis of the clothing mesh at every time step, and stores the result in the form of coloring the vertices, edges, and triangles. Referring to the coloring, the method resolves the tanglements in the out-to-in manner by applying the proposed operations, the triangle shrinkage and vertex pull, to the triangles and vertices around the intersection path. We take note of the CCH methods that use some small tolerance value to defend the round-off errors for the purpose of preventing false negatives. This work gives a second thought to that tolerance value, and proposes a new DCH method which uses the tolerance value for the resolution purpose. Under certain conditions, the method turns out to guarantee resolution of the tanglements in a finite number of time steps.

    Abstract The current incidence of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing, which plays a crucial role in detecting prostate cancer (PCa) in an aged population, is low in Korea. Reflecting these epidemiologic characteristics, we estimated the short- and long-term incidences of PCa. A regression equation model was extracted based on two critical pieces of information: (1) the distribution of newly detected PCa cases in each age group of the 50s, 60s, 70s, and over 80s from a recent period (2006-2020), and (2) the PSA testing rate (PSAr) from the previous decade (2006-2016) for each age subgroup. The incidence increased fourfold (4533 in 2006 to 16,815 in 2020), with each age subgroup accounting for 7.9% (50s), 31.4% (60s), 43.0% (70s), and 17.1% (over 80s) of cases in 2020. PSAr increased by an average of 1.08% annually. If these trends are maintained, 28,822 new cases will be diagnosed in 2030 (expected PSAr: 14.4%) and 40,478 cases in 2040 (expected PSAr: 26.4%). If a public PSA screening were implemented for men only in their 60s (assuming a PSAr of 60% in the 60s) and 70s (assuming a PSAr of 80% in the 70s) in 2030, 37,503 cases in 2030 (expected PSAr: 23.1%) and 43,719 cases in 2040 (expected PSAr: 29.9%) would be estimated. According to the projection, the incidence of PCa will increase twofold by 2034 compared to 2020. If national screening were only conducted in the 60s and 70s, a higher detection of almost threefold would be expected by 2040.

    Abstract Though prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most common cancer world widely, there exist substantial differences exist between Asia and the west. Genetic susceptibility and lifestyle may contribute to disproportionately lower incidences and mortalities of PCa in Asian countries, but the differences in diagnostic practices are also likely to contribute, and a large part of them may be explained by the lesser chance of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing. In the US, about half of men aged over 50 years had been exposed to the screening test in the early 2000s. The shifts in the risk stratification from the high-risk dominant disease in the late 1980s to the low-risk dominant disease in the early 2000s led to criticism regarding the unconditional nature of PSA-based screening. Based on the conflicting outcomes from the randomized clinical trials which investigated the benefit of PSA testing, US Preventive Study Task Force recommended ceasing mass screening in 2012. Accordingly, guidelines begin to emphasize shared decision-making on the PSA testing narrowing their scopes to men aged 55 to 69 years since 2013. Though most Asian countries have not begun to recognize PCa as a major agenda item until the 2010s, a clear trend of expanding incidence of it implies that the time to come to reconsider PSA testing as a higher priority in the public health sphere in the 2020s. Concerns regarding over-diagnosis and over-treatment of insignificant diseases are imperative. However, the distinctive epidemiologic characteristics of PCa in Asia areas, such as low exposure to the repetitive PSA testing, the recent increase in its incidence driven by the elderly and super-elderly, and racial differences should be considered when it comes to the establishment of screening policy utilizing PSA test.

    Abstract Background: Hip fractures require extended periods of recovery and rehabilitation, subjecting older adults to discontinuous care. Discharge transition is a critical point of heightened vulnerability for older adults.
    Aims: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a transitional care programme on the physical functions and quality of life (QOL) of older adults after hip fracture surgery.
    Methods: Seventy-five older adults were assessed from pre-discharge to 6 weeks after hip surgery, and their physical functions, including walking status and activities of daily living, were measured. The QOL was measured using the European Quality of life-5 Dimensions-5 Levels (EQ 5D 5L).
    Results: There was a significant strong effect of time (
    Conclusions: The discharge transitional care programme improved the EQ-VAS of older adults following hip fracture surgery 6 weeks post-surgery. However, there were no significant differences in physical functions and EQ-5D between the groups.

    Abstract Objective: This study aimed to investigate the association between paraspinal muscle measurements using chest computed tomography (CT) and the clinical outcomes of elderly patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP).
    Methods: This was a single-center, retrospective, observational study that included elderly (≥65 years) patients with CAP hospitalized through an emergency department between March 2020 and December 2022. We collected their baseline characteristics and laboratory data at the time of admission. Paraspinal muscle index and attenuation were calculated at the level of the 12th thoracic vertebra using chest CT taken within 48 hours before and after admission. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were conducted to evaluate the association between paraspinal muscle measurements and 28-day mortality. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and area under the curve (AUC) analyses were used to evaluate the prognostic predictive power.
    Results: Of 338 enrolled patients, 60 (17.8%) died within 28 days after admission. A high paraspinal muscle index was associated with a low 28-day mortality in elderly patients with CAP (adjusted odds ratio, 0.994; 95% confidence interval, 0.992-0.997). The area under the ROC curve for the muscle index was 0.75, which outperformed pneumonia severity index (PSI) and confusion, urea, respiratory rate, blood pressure, age ≥ 65 (CURB-65), both of which showed 0.64 in predicting mortality.
    Conclusion: A high paraspinal muscle index was associated with a low 28-day mortality in patients aged 65 years or older with CAP.

    Abstract Due to the advent of the expressions of data other than tabular formats, the topological compositions which make samples interrelated came into prominence. Analogically, those networks can be interpreted as social connections, dataflow maps, citation influence graphs, protein bindings, etc. However, in the case of social networks, it is highly crucial to evaluate the labels of discrete communities. The reason for such a study is the importance of analyzing graph networks to partition the vertices by only using the topological features of network graphs. For each interaction-based entity, a social graph, a mailing dataset, and two citation sets are selected as the testbench repositories. The research mainly focused on evaluating the significance of three artificial intelligence approaches on four different datasets consisting of vertices and edges. Overall, one of these methods so-called "harmonic functions", resulted in the best form to classify those constituents of graph-shaped datasets. This research not only accessed the most valuable method but also determined how graph neural networks work and the need to improve against non-neural network approaches which are faster and computationally cost-effective. Also in this paper, we will show that there is a limit to be accessed by prospective graph neural network variations by using the topological features of trialed networks.
