This paper details the development and implementation of Yonsei Medical E-Learning System 3.0 (YES 3.0), a new learning management system (LMS) for Yonsei University College of Medicine. Driven by the need to adapt to a rapidly changing medical education landscape, YES 3.0 addresses the previous system’s limitations and incorporates advanced features designed to improve learning experiences and educational outcomes. The development process involved extensive collaboration among faculty, students, staff, and the system developer, ensuring the system's alignment with the unique needs of the medical education environment. YES 3.0 features real-time monitoring of learning progress, comprehensive evaluation and grade management, personalized learning path recommendations, effective learner history management, and interview/guidance management functionalities. The system also supports the newly revised CDP2023 (Curriculum Development Project 2023) curriculum, with integrated learning across all courses and a strengthened scholarly advanced course. By automating and streamlining various educational processes, YES 3.0 enables maximized learning efficiency, promotes learner-centered education, and supports the cultivation of future medical professionals equipped to navigate the evolving healthcare environment. Implementing the system is expected to have positive impacts on both educational and economic aspects, contributing to the advancement of medical education at Yonsei University College of Medicine. This study also aims to offer insights and expected outcomes that can serve as a reference for other medical schools in adopting and operating LMS, ultimately providing useful information to educators considering establishing a digital learning environment.

Purpose: Pancreas transplantation (PT) is a definitive treatment for diabetes mellitus (DM), restoring endogenous insulin secretion and improving glycemic control. Despite its efficacy, PT is less common in South Korea compared to Western nations. This study aims to report the clinical outcomes of PT over 2 decades at a single center, focusing on surgical techniques, complications, and graft survival. Methods: A retrospective analysis of 69 PT recipients at Seoul National University Hospital between January 2002 and December 2023 was conducted. Data on recipient and donor demographics, surgical details, immunosuppressive regimens, and graft outcomes were collected. Graft survival was evaluated using Kaplan-Meier analysis, with subgroup comparisons using the log-rank test. Graft failure was defined as graft removal, PT re-registration, insulin dependence exceeding 0.5 units/kg/day for more than 90 days, or patient death. Results: Among the 69 recipients, 50 (72.5%) had type 1 DM, and 18 (26.1%) had type 2 DM. Simultaneous pancreaskidney (SPK) transplantations comprised 84.1% (n = 58), and pancreas-after-kidney (PAK) transplantations accounted for 10.1%. The 1-year and 5-year death-censored pancreas graft survival rates were 92.7% and 89.6%, respectively, with no significant difference between SPK and PAK (P = 0.330). Graft failure occurred in 10 patients, primarily due to pancreatitis and rejection. Donor-related factors, particularly anoxic brain injury, were significantly associated with lower graft survival (P = 0.045). Conclusion PT outcomes in this cohort align with international standards, emphasizing the importance of donor selection and tailored immunosuppression. Expanding PT indications to include selective type 2 DM patients could benefit South Korea’s PT programs with adequate resource allocation.
