Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women, and lymphedema is one of the most common postoperative complications of breast surgery. Exercises are usually prescribed to prevent this occurrence. On the other hand, conflicting results regarding the effects and timing of such exercises have been reported. This study reviewed systematically the contemporary literature, peer-reviewed publications, and web sites of professional organizations that examined exercise for lymphedema prevention or therapy to determine the effects of exercise on lymphedema providing the best evidence for the treatment of patients. Exercise or training groups have strategies that appear to reduce the development of secondary lymphedema and altering its progression compared to the control group. Advances in cancer treatment, cancer and exercise research, and lymphedema management require physicians to have a basic understanding of the current evidence to provide the appropriate patient education and specialist referral.

The purpose of this study is to identify factors influencing suicidal ideation for the elderly living alone. Utilizing the identified factors as the base data, the study aims to develop community programs for suicide prevention. This research is a secondary analysis of the 2017 national survey, 'Survey on the Elderly,' conducting logistics regression analysis on the data collected on 10,299 elderly aged 65 or older living in 17 general residential facilities as of 2017. The analysis reveals that 10.5% of the elderly living alone have contemplated suicide. The frequency of suicidal ideation was attributed to such factors as gender, age, chronic disease, depression and experiences of abuse and discrimination. To prevent suicide among the elderly, therefore, active management from both public and private sectors are needed for early detection of chronic diseases and depression.

This study was a secondary analysis research using data from the Seventh Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES VII-2), 2017 to identify the relationships between obesity and physical activities and prevalence of osteoarthritis in menopause women. The subjects were 1,516 menopause women aged over 19 years who participated in the KNHANES VII-2, 2017. Data were downloaded from the KNHANES website and analysed through complex sampling design data analysis using IBM SPSS 21.0 program. Prevalence of osteoarthritis is 1.88 times higher in women with body mass index (BMI) above pre-obesity and non-abdominal obesity and 1.98 times higher in women with BMI above pre-obesity and abdominal obesity than in women with BMI normal or low weight and non-abdominal obesity. These results indicate that obesity prevention and management should be provided to prevention of osteoarthritis for menopause women and obesity should be considered body mass index and abdominal obesity.

Median raphe cyst is known as congenital lesion of the perineum and genitalia, but its etiology is unclear. Most investigators believe that the median raphe cyst represent defects in the embryologic developement of the male genitalia. Simple surgical excision is effective in most cases. We report our experience with two cases of median raphe cyst without specific symptoms. Even though median raphe cyst is asymptomatic, surgical therapy is worth applicable because it relieve a patient from cosmetic and psychotic problem.

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO) provides stable oxygenation to prevent elevation of pulmonary vascular resistance and bypasses a significant part of cardiac output to the pulmonary vascular bed to reduce pulmonary perfusion pressure. In addition, ECMO prevents right heart failure and low cardiac output by means of ventricular assist and reduction in volume load to right ventricle. As a result, ECMO can be used for the treatment of pulmonary hypertensive crisis after surgery for congenital heart disease, especially when it is refractory to conventional measures. We report a case of postoperative pulmonary hypertensive crisis, developed in a 37-year-old male with patent ductus arteriosus with secondary pulmonary hypertension, which was successfully managed including ECMO.

Purpose: The purpose of this secondary data analysis was to identify factors influencing a relapse among patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods: Of 250 participants enrolled in the original study 75 were selected as there was no relapse for more than one year following the initial treatment and 54 were selected because there was a relapse. Data were analyzed using ${\chi}^2$ test, t-test or F test to determine if there were any significant differences in the study variables relative to the status of relapse. Predictors were calculated by logistic regression. Results: Autonomy supported by healthcare providers was the significant predictor for relapse in patients with CAD. Patients with low autonomy supported by healthcare providers was 3.91 times more likely to relapse than patients with high autonomy supported. Patients with diabetes were at greater risk of recurrence. Conclusion: Secondary prevention of CAD is a major task for patients with CAD. Behavioral strategies for cardiovascular risk reduction are essential and autonomy supported by healthcare providers should be included in their strategies.
