Background: Recently there has been evidences that serum Lp(a), an independent risk factor to atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases, were increased in proteinuric disorders such as nephrotic syndrome and diabetic nephropathy. Methods: We intended to search of altered concentrations of Lp(a) in proteinuric disorder measuring serum Lp(a) concentrations with ELISA in 44 glomerulonephritic patients(25 nephrotic syndrome(NS), 19 non-nephrotic range proteinuric glomerulonephritis(GN), 25 diabetic nephropathy patients(DN), and 31 healthy controls(HC). Also, we compared Lp(a) concentration between glomerulonephritis patients and diabetic nephropathy patients with proteinuria of similar degree. Results: 1) There were significantly increased levels of total choesterol, triglyceride, and LDL-cholesterol in Ns compared to GN, DN, HC. 2) There were significantly increased concentrations of serum Lp(a) in NS compared to HC, but no signiicant difference in serum Lp(a) among NS, GN, and DN. 3) There was no significant difference in serum Lp(a) concentrations between NS & DN with 24 hour urine protein greater than 3.0g. 4) There was no significant difference in serum Lp(a) concentration between GN with 24 hour urine protein greater than 0.5g and less than 1.5g and DN with proteinuria of simial degree. 5) In glomerulonephritis patients, there was negative correlation between serum Lp(a) concentration and serum albumin level but correlation with 24 hour urinary protein, total cholesterol, Ldl-cholesterol, and HDL-cholesterol was not shown. In diabetic nephropathy, there was no significant correlation among serum Lp(a) concentration and all parameters including serum albumin, 24 hour urinary protein, and other lipid profiles. Conclusion: The present study confirmed that patients with nephrotic syndrome of diverse etiologies have makedly increased plasma level of Lp(a), in conjunction with other lipid abnormalities. However, this study shows no difference in Lp(a) concentrations between diabetic nephropathy and glomerulonephritis with similar degree of proteinuria.

Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura is a disease characterized by thrombocytopenia in peripheral blood with positive anti-platelet antibody titer, no splenomegaly, the presence of megakarocyte. The causes of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura were usually related to autoimmune disease, infection and drugs. A 46-years-old man was admitted for evaluation of abdominal mass. He has many cafe-au-lait spots and nodules in almost skin for 30 years. Several years ago, he palpated mass in Lt. inguinal area. hIe has known the abdominal mass after checking abdomen CT in local clinic and visited our hospital for evaluation of abdominal mass. At admission, laboratory tests showed hemoglobin 12.5 g/dL, hematocrit 38.4 %, WBC 5,460 /㎣ (neutrophil 64.5%, lymphocyte 21.7%, monocyte 4.1%, eosinophil 5.4%), reticulocyte 0.7%, Platelet 52,000 /㎣, total protein 6.51 g/dL, albumin 3.80 g/dL, alkaline pohsphatase 161 IU/L, AST 110.7 IU/L, ALT 64.9 IU/L, total bilirubin 0.44 ㎎/dL, BUN 18.4 ㎎/dL, creatinine 0.79 ㎎/dL. Peripheral blood smear showed normocytic normochromic anemia, thrombocytopenia. Bone marrow aspiration smear showed normoplastic myeloid and erythroid precursor. The bone marrow biopsy section shows normocellular marrow (35%) for his age and mildly increasing myeloid cell lineage. We have experienced a case of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura in a patient being in neurofibromatosis and therefore reporting it with documentary records. 저자들은 신경섬유종증 환자에서 특별한 원인을 발견할 수 없었음에도 특발성 혈소판 감소증이 발생한 1예를 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

Stomata1 distribution in relation to the height of Pinus parviflora and Pinus koraiensis was studied 1. Stomata1 bands per needle of P parviflora and P koraiensis were 8.60±0.62 - 11.47±0.74, 14.07±1.03 - 16.60±0.99 and the number of stomata per band were 382.0±8.80 404.27±26.16, 1,326. 67±87.78 - 2,286.58±214.57, respectively 2. The number of stomatal band was significantly different between 3, 4m and 5, 6m in P parviflora and between 5, 6m and 7m in P. koraiensis Consequently, it is suggested that stomatal frequency gradient associated with increasing height above the ground is correlated with the greater degree of exposure to light.

동국대학병원 재활의학과 근전도실의 전기진단학적 검사 분석

권용욱,안재홍 동국대학교 경주대학 1996 東國論集 Vol.15 No.-

1995년 12월부터 1996년 8월까지 신경근육계질환이 의심되어 동국대학교 경주병원 재활의학과 근전도실에서 근전도검사를 시행한 482례를 대상으로, 환자 분포 및 검사전 의뢰 진단과 전기진단학적 결과를 비교 분석하였다. 환자의 연령은 1개월에서 80세까지로, 평균 43세였고, 남자는 60%로 여자환자에 비해 약간 많은 것으로 나타났다. 의뢰 건수에서는 정형외과가 근전도를 가장 많이 의뢰한 것으로 나타났고 재활의학과, 신경외과 순이었다. 의뢰 진단은 radiculopathy가 가장 많았고, 의뢰 당시 의심하는 진단을 밝히지 않은 경우가 7례였다. 검사전 의뢰 진단과 검사 시행후 전기진단학적 진단의 일치율은 46.5%로 나타났고, 가장 일치율이 낮은 것은 radiculopathy였다. 근전도 검사에 대한 깊은 이해와 관심이 검사의 활용도를 높일 수 있으리라 사료된다. The electrodiagnostic findings and pre-test diagnosis of 482 patients with neuromuscular disorder, who were referred to our EMG laboratory from Dec. 1995 to Aug. 1996, were analyzed. Of 482 cases, 290(60%) were male, and the mean age was 43years old. Frequent referring departments orthopedic surgery, rehabillitation medicine, and neurosurgery in order. The most common referring diagnosis was radiculopathy. The case without climical information were 7 cases. The concordance rate of pre-test diagnosis and electrodiagnostic findings was 46.5%. Radiculopathy had the lowest concordance rate. The understanding of electrodiagnosis was needed for increasing utility of electrodiagnosis.

권성일,박기룡,김현영,신채희,임영찬,최영식,박요한,이강대,장희경,이재화,염하용 대한내분비학회 2002 Endocrinology and metabolism Vol.17 No.4

연구배경: 갑상선암은 다른 조직에 발생한 암에 비해 비교적 천천히 자라므로 대부분 예후가 양호하지만, 일부에서는 주위 조직으로 침윤하거나 혹은 원격 전이로 인하여 치명적인 결과를 초래할 수 있다. 갑상선전절제술 및 131^I 제거술 후 경과 관찰시 갑상선암의 재발과 전이의 진단에 있어 131^I 스캔과 혈청 Tg의 측정이 현재 임상에서 가장 많이 이용되고 있으나 이 방법에는 여러 가지의 결점이 있다. 최근 Tg mRNA에 대한 RT-PCR법을 이용한 여러 연구결과는 131^I 스캔과 혈청 Tg 측정의 결점을 보완할 수 있는 좋은 보조적인 진단법으로 이용할 수 있을 가능성을 제시하였다. 이에 말초혈액에서 측정한 Tg mRNA에 대한 RT-PCR법이 갑상선 절제술 및 방사성요드 치료 후 갑상선암의 재발 및 전이 유무의 진단에 유용한가를 알아보고자 이 연구 시행하였다. 방법: 분화된 갑상선암으로 진단된 후 갑상선전절제술을 시행받고 방사성요드 치료를 받은 환자 중 현재까지 한차례에 이상 추적 방사성요드 전신 스캔을 시행하고 추적관찰이 가능했던 유두선암 35예, 여포선암 5예를 대상으로 연구를 시행하였다. 대상군은 131^I 스캔 소견상 음성인 군(Group Ⅰ), 잔여조직이 있는 군(Group Ⅱ), 국소전이가 있는 군(Group Ⅲ), 및 원격전이 군(Group Ⅳ)으로 구분하였다. 정상 대조군은 갑상선질환이 없는 10예의 건강인으로 하였다. 대상환자의 말초혈액을 이용한 Tg mRNA에 대해 특이적인 primer를 이용하여 RT-PCR 및 nested RT-PCR을 시행하였다. 결과: 본 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 1) 131^I 스캔 소견상 음성인 군 21예 중 1예에서 Tg가 양성소견을 보였다. Anti Tg Ab가 양성인 4예 모두 Tg가 음성을 보였다. 잔여조직이 있거나 국소전이 및 원격전이를 보인 군 19예 중 Tg가 양성인 경우는 4예였으나, Tg mRNA는 전예에서 양성이었다. 2) 131^I 스캔에서 국소 및 원격전이 소견을 보인 8예 중 4예에서 Tg가 음성으로 131^I 스캔과 혈청 Tg 사이에 불일치 소견을 보였다. 3) 말초혈액에서 특이적인 primer를 이용하여 RT-PCR 및 nested RT-PCR을 시행한 결과 대상군 40예 및 정상 대조군 10예 모두에서 Tg mRNA가 양성을 보였다. 결론: 본 연구에서 갑상선 절제술 및 방사성요드 치료 후 갑상선암의 재발 및 전이 유무를 평가함에 있어 역전사 중합효소 연쇄 반응법을 이용한 Tg mRNA 측정의 의의는 재평가되어야 한다고 생각된다. Background: Differentiated thyroid cancer is the most common endocrine malignancy. Despite advances in the treatment of thyroid cancer, disease recurrence and metastasis may occur in as many as 20% of patients, and so continues to pose major problems in its clinical management. Serum thyroglobulin (Tg) measurements, by immunoassay, are used to detect residual or recurrent thyroid cancer following thyriod ablation. However, the usefulness of immunoassay is limited by both the requirement for thyroid hormone withdrawal, to attain optimal test sensitivity, and interference by the antithyroglobulin antibody (Anti-Tg Ab). Recent studies have reported the clinical usefulness of reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) detection of Tg mRNA in the peripheral blood of patients with differentiated thyroid carcinomas. We performed this study to evaluated the usefulness RT-PCR of Tg mRNA in peripheral blood of patients with thyroid carcinoma following a total thyroidectomy and radioiodine ablation therapy. Methods: Forty cases that underwent a total thyroidectomy and radioiodine ablation therapy were included in this study. Of the 40 patients, 35 were papillary carcinomas and 5 were follicular carcinomas. Ten normal control subjects were also studied. Tg mRNA was extracted. Then RT-PCR and nested RT-PCR, were run with specific Tg primers. Concurrently, DNA sequencing of the isolates was carried out to prove the isolates were identical to the nucleotide sequence of the Tg. Results: The Tg was detected in 4 of 19 patients, with either a residual thyroid bed, or metastasis, on a 131^I whole body scan and in 1 of 21 patients with a negative radioiodine scan. Surprisingly, the Tg mRNA was detected in all the patients and normal controls. Conclusion: From our results we can not recommend Tg mRNA, detected by RT-PCR in peripheral blood, as a tumor marker superior to that of the Tg serum level. We consider an intensive re-evaluation of the method is required before considering its clinical applications (J Kor Soc Endocrinol 17:501∼513, 2002).

The initial metabolism of nitrate to nitrite can be readily demonstrated in vivo by incubating plant tissue in the presence of nitrate in the dark under aerobic condition. All wheat seedlings during germination were in a dark incubator, and eight days-old seedlings were used for these experiments. Few other dater on nitrate reductase inhibition by metal ions can be found and no detailed studies of some inhibition types have been reported. For this reason, the authors have carried out some experiments on the inhibition types of nitrate reductase by some metal ions. 1mM CuCl and ZnCl_2 have inhibited nitrate reductase activity to a range of great degree (20-40%), while 1mM MnCl_2 and CoCl_2 have acted as less potent nitrate reductase inhibitors under 10% decreased condition. Relatively, 1mM KCl, MgCl_2 and CaCl_2 have shown the result acting as an activator of nitrate reductase. On the other hand, nitrate reductase levels have shown a phenomenon of fluctuation in response to changes depending upon 0.001-0.1mM concentration of some chloride salts, and shown constant value to a high concentration(1mM) of inhibited chloride salts. Consequently, it is assumed that the results of inhibition are belong to mixed type among various inhibitions, especially with respect to the nitrate reductase activity of wheat seedlings treated with CuCl, ZnCl_2, MnCl_2 and CoCl_2.
