羅東圭 대전대학교 韓醫學연구소 1999 한의학연구소 논문집 Vol.7 No.2

Over the period between January 1997 and December 1998, herbal medicine was more than three times administered to the patients coming to Na dong gyu's Oriental Medical Clinic on account of the symptom of growth deficiency. According to radiological opinions about the patients providing cooperation for measuring their height and weight as well as their bone age every three months, it was found that the growth plates were not closed. A research was conducted for 200 children randomly selected of patients in prepuberty they grew by less than 5cm a year before treatment at a age of 12years for female children and 14years for male children). As a result, the following conclusion was drawn: 1. The randomly selected subjects were made up of 116 male and 84 female children in terms of gender. The age direstribution was most 10 to 12 years in 86 children(34.00%), followed by 8-10 years(27.50%) and 12 to 14 years(19.50%). 2. Considering the distribution of sick children's parental height, the fathers of 141 children(70.50%) measured less than 170㎝ high, the subaverage height, while the mothers of 172 children(86%) measured less than 160cm high, the subaverage height. It was shown that sick childen's height was genetically influenced by their parents. 3. Children patients's weight at a time of birth was most 3.1-3.5㎏ for 85 children(44%) and less than 2.5㎏ which came under the range of growth dificiency for 19 children(9.5%). 4. The highest proportian of the children patients with growth dificiency(56.33%) had the symptom of digestive disorders, of which 77 children patients(18.78%) had anorexia, 16.59% of children patients had the high level of respiratory disorders. Both the digestive disorder and the respiratory disorder put together, they had the high rate of 72.92%. Therefore, this indicates that both the digestive disorder and the respiratory disorder have a great effect on children's growth dificiency. 10.74% of chilren patients were shown to have allergic disorders, which indicates that they also exert an effect on growth deficiency. Specifically, 7.07% of the children patients had the high level of obesity, which shows that an excessive uptake of nutrition may rather induce children to have growth dificiency though an appropriate amount of nutritional uptake is necessary. 5. Comparing their bone age and their chronological age, 58 children patients(29.00%) showed that they were the same at the highest percent. 79 children patients(39.50%) showed that thier bone age was lower than their chronological age. And 63 children patients (31.50%) showed that their bone age was higher than their chronological age. 6. As regards the prescription administered to children patients for treating their growth dificiency, Growth tang A related to the kidney, the congenital factor, of the causes for growth deficiency in traditional Oriental Medicine was administered to 108 children patients(54%), whereas the Growth tang B related to the spleen, the acquired factor, was administered to 92 children patients(46%). 7. 116 male children patients with growth dificiency had the average value of growth for one year before treatment, 4.39㎝, while 84 female children patients had the average value of growth for one year before treatment, 4.24㎝. A total of 200 children had the average value of growth for one year before treatment, 4.33㎝. The annual average value of growth in growth curve surveyed by the Korea Pediatrics Society was 5.79㎝. Compared to this value, the one year average value of growth for 108 male and female children patients taking Growth tang A was shown be 8.44㎝, which indicates a greater growth by 4.12㎝(95.37%) in comparison with the average value of growth before treatment, 4.32㎝, and a greater growth by 2.65㎝(45.77%) compared to 5.79㎝, the average value of growth in growth curve surveyed by the Korea Pediatrics Society. Also, the average value of growth before treatment for 92 male and female children patients taking Growth tang B was shown to be 8.47㎝, which indicates a greater increase by 4.15㎝(96.06%) compared to 4.32㎝, the average value of growth before treatment and a greater increase by 2.67㎝(46.29%) in comparison with 5.79㎝, the average value of growth in growth curve surveyed by the Korea Pediatrics Society. Considering the average value of growth for male and female children patients taking Growth tang A and B, it was shown to be 8.46㎝, which indicates a greater increase by 4.14㎝(95.81%) compared to 4.32㎝, the average value of growth before treatment, and a greater increase by 2.67㎝(46.11%) compared to 5.79㎝, the average value of growth in growth curve surveyed by the Korea Pediatrics Society.

Backgrounds and Objectives: Vascular dementia is a group of dementing disoders arising from various stroke syndrome. Among these. subcortical ischemic vascular dementia (SIVD) is regarded as a relatively distinct clinical entity. However, MRI patterns of SIVD are not homogenous. In some patients, lacunes are dominant, and in others, subcortical white matter changes are. This study was designed to compare risk factor profiles between SIVD with and without multiple lacunes. Methods: We divided 47 subjects (22 males, mean age. 68 years) recruited from VADAPET (Multicenter Trial For Evaluation Of The Changes In the PET Images Of Subcortical Vascular Dementia Patient) study into two groups one with more than 5 lacunes in deep gray matter (lacune group) and the other with 5 or less(non-lacune group) Clinical characteristics and laboratory findings of two groups were compared. Results: Nineteen of 47 patients (40%) belonged to the lacune group. The lacune and non-lacune groups d d not differ in the following variables: age, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia heart disease, history of stroke or TIA, history of trauma or major surgery, family history of hypertension stroke, or dementia, age at diagnosis of dementia, body mass index, white blood cell count, ESR, CRP, fibrinogen, hemoglobin A1C, total cholesterol. LDL cholesterol creatinine, proteinuria, glucosuria, and microhematuria. However, male sex, smoking alcohol. hemoglobin, and HDL cholesterol were possibly associated more with lacune group SIVD than with non-lacune group (p<0 1) Multivariate analyses revealed that smoking, hemoglobin, and HDL cholesterol were independent predictors of SIVD with multiple lacunes Conclusion: Our study suggests that SIVD with multiple lacunes may be significantly different in smoking habits hemoglobin, and HDL cholesterol from SIVD without multiple lacunes.

CT Sign of Brain Swelling without Concomitant Parenchymal Hypoattenuation: Comparison with Diffusion- and Perfusion-weighted MR Imaging

Na, Dong Gyu,Kim, Eung Yeop,Ryoo, Jae Wook,Lee, Kwang Ho,Roh, Hong Gee,Kim, Sam Soo,Song, In Chan,Chang, Kee-Hyun Radiological Society of North America 2005 Radiology Vol.235 No.3

<P>PURPOSE: To retrospectively evaluate the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) on magnetic resonance (MR) images and the perfusion parameters of lesions that show brain swelling without concomitant parenchymal hypoattenuation on computed tomographic (CT) scans. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Review board approval was obtained, and informed consent was waived. A total of 14 patients (seven men and seven women; mean age, 64 years +/- 11) were retrospectively selected from the consecutive 172 patients with acute cerebral ischemia who underwent CT within 6 hours of symptom onset. All patients had brain swelling without parenchymal hypoattenuation, including loss of gray-white matter distinction on CT scans, and they underwent diffusion- and perfusion-weighted MR imaging shortly after CT. CT attenuation, ADC, and perfusion parameters of relative cerebral blood volume (CBV), time to peak (TTP), and relative cerebral blood flow (CBF) were calculated for gray and white matter of the lesion. The measured values were compared with those of the contralateral hemisphere by using the paired t test; comparison of values of perfusion parameters among three subgroups was performed with the Kruskal-Wallis test. Arterial occlusions were determined with MR angiography or conventional angiography. RESULTS: The mean interval between initial CT and MR imaging was 2.4 hours +/- 0.9 (range, 0.4-3.4 hours). The ADC of lesions was similar to that of contralateral normal tissue (mean ADC ratio for gray matter and white matter, 0.99 and 0.97, respectively) (P > .05). Lesions had an increased relative CBV (P < .001), a mild to moderate TTP delay (P < .001), and a variable but not statistically significant reduction of relative CBF. The mean relative CBF of gray matter was less in patients who had complete infarction (0.81 +/- 0.16) than that in patients with partial infarction (0.99 +/- 0.16) or those with a normal radiologic outcome (1.12 +/- 0.22), but this difference was not statistically significant (P > .05). Proximal cerebral artery occlusions were found in all patients. In five (36%) patients, the lesion did not progress to infarction at follow-up. CONCLUSION: The CT sign of brain swelling without concomitant parenchymal hypoattenuation in patients with acute cerebral ischemia does not represent severe ischemic damage and may suggest ischemic penumbral or oligemic tissue.</P>

Imaging-Based Management of Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients: Current Neuroradiological Perspectives

Na, Dong Gyu,Sohn, Chul-Ho,Kim, Eung Yeop The Korean Society of Radiology 2015 KOREAN JOURNAL OF RADIOLOGY Vol.16 No.2

<P>Advances in imaging-based management of acute ischemic stroke now provide crucial information such as infarct core, ischemic penumbra/degree of collaterals, vessel occlusion, and thrombus that helps in the selection of the best candidates for reperfusion therapy. It also predicts thrombolytic efficacy and benefit or potential hazards from therapy. Thus, radiologists should be familiar with various imaging studies for patients with acute ischemic stroke and the applicability to clinical trials. This helps radiologists to obtain optimal rapid imaging as well as its accurate interpretation. This review is focused on imaging studies for acute ischemic stroke, including their roles in recent clinical trials and some guidelines to optimal interpretation.</P>

나동규 ( Dong Gyu Na ),백정환 ( Jung Hwan Baek ) 대한갑상선학회 2018 International Journal of Thyroidology Vol.11 No.1

The Korean Society of Thyroid Radiology (KSThR) was founded as an affiliated subspecialty society of Korean Society of Radiology in 2010. The KSThR was originated from the thyroid radiology research committee which had started within the Korean Society of Neuroradiology in 2005. In the beginning, the research committee was organized to make a clinical guideline for ultrasonography (US) diagnosis and US-guided biopsy of thyroid nodules to cope with the rapidly increasing role of US imaging and the increasing burden of US-guided biopsy for thyroid nodules in the early 2000s. The KSThR proposed a subspecialty of thyroid radiology which is a medical subspecialty dealing with the imaging-based diagnosis and interventional treatment of thyroid disease. The KSThR has made an effort to make an advance in the research of thyroid imaging and intervention, which could provide scientific evidences for imaging-based management of nodular thyroid disease and thyroid cancers. The KSThR has published clinical guidelines of diagnostic imaging and interventional management of thyroid nodules, which included the US diagnosis and imaging-based management, fine-needle aspiration, core needle biopsy, and radiofrequency ablation therapy in thyroid nodules. The KSThR has a mission to play a leading role in the research and clinical practice of imaging-based management of thyroid disease, and the KSThR will make an advance in collaboration with Korean Thyroid Association.

갑상선암 환자에서 전이 림프절 진단의 최신지견: 영상의학적 진단

나동규 ( Dong Gyu Na ) 대한갑상선학회 2009 International Journal of Thyroidology Vol.2 No.1

The preoperative accurate diagnosis of metastatic lymph nodes is important for the optimal surgical management in patients with thyroid carcniomas. Ultrasonography (US) is an imaging modality of choice for the diagnosis of metastatic lymph nodes. Ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is a very useful technique with a high specificity for metastatic nodes. Combination of FNAC and thyroglobulin assessment in needle washout fluid provides higher sensitivity and accuracy for detection of metastatic lymph nodes from differentiated thyroid carcinomas compared to FNAC alone. Routine preoperative use of contrast enhanced CT or MRI is not recommend and the role of CT is controversial. CT may provide additional benefit for detecting metastatic nodes in some patients, and may has a complementary role for the diagnosis of metastatic nodes in patients with thyroid carcinomas.

Background: Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) is a rare borderline vascular tumor. Due to its rarity and protean behavior, the optimal treatment of hepatic EHE has not yet been standardized. This single-center study describes outcomes in patients with hepatic EHE who underwent living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). Methods: The medical records of patients who underwent LDLT for hepatic EHE from 2007 to 2016 were reviewed. Results: During 10-year period, four patients, one man and three women, of mean age 41.3±11.1 years, underwent LDLT for hepatic EHE. Based on imaging modalities, these patients were preoperatively diagnosed with EHE or hepatocellular carcinoma, with percutaneous liver biopsy confirming that all four had hepatic EHE. The tumors were multiple and scattered over entire liver, precluding liver resection. Blood tumor markers were not elevated, except that CA19-9 and des-γ-carboxy prothrombin was slightly elevated in one patient. Mean model for end-stage liver disease score was 10.8±5.7. All patients underwent LDLT using modified right liver grafts, with graft-recipient weight ratio of 1.11±0.19, and all recovered uneventfully after LDLT. One patient died due to tumor recurrence at 9 months, whereas the other three have done well without tumor recurrence, resulting in 5-year disease-free and overall patient survival rates of 75% each. The patient with tumor recurrence was classified as a high-risk patient based on the original and modified hepatic EHE-LT scoring systems. Conclusions: LDLT can be an effective treatment for patients with unresectable hepatic EHEs that are confined within the liver and absence of macrovascular invasion and lymph node metastasis.
