Background/Aims: Recent epidemiologic studies have shown a continued increase in colorectal cancer incidence among younger adults. Little is known about the factors that contribute to the development of young-onset colorectal neoplasia (CRN). Methods: A cross-sectional analysis was performed for individuals younger than 40 years who underwent colonoscopy in Seoul St. Mary’s Hospital and its affiliated health screening center. High-risk CRN was defined as adenoma or sessile serrated lesion ≥ 10 mm, with three or more adenomas, villous histology, high grade dysplasia, or carcinoma. Results: Of these 13,621 included participants, 2,023 (14.9%) had one and more CRN. Young patients with CRN tended to be elderly, male, obese, smoker, having a habit of drinking, and having comorbidities such as hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes, and chronic kidney disease. In a multivariate analysis adjusted for age, sex, obesity, smoking status, and alcohol intake, old age (odds ratio [OR], 1.086; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.054 to 1.119), male sex (OR, 1.748; 95% CI, 1.247 to 2.451), obesity (OR, 1.439; 95% CI, 1.133 to 1.828), and smoking (OR, 1.654; 95% CI, 1.287 to 2.127) were independent risk factors for overall CRN. Obesity and smoking as two modifiable factors increased the risk for high-risk CRN even more than for overall CRN (OR, 1.734; 95% CI, 1.168 to 2.575 and OR, 1.797; 95% CI, 1.172 to 2.753, respectively). Conclusions: Obesity and smoking were modifiable risk factors for CRN in young adults. They increased the risk for highrisk CRN even more than for overall CRN. A colonoscopy might be beneficial for young individuals with these factors.

Hyun Soo Kim, Jong Woon Cheon, Min Su Kim, Chang Kil Jung, Kyung Rok Kim, Jae Won Choi, Dong Woo Kang and Sun Young Kim1 Departments of Internal Medicine and Pathology1, DongKang Medical Center, Ulsan, Korea Actinomycosis is a chronic suppurative disease and caused by Actinomycosis species, principally Actinomyces israelii, which are part of the normal inhabitant on the mucous membrane of the oropharynx, gastrointestinal tract, and urogenital tract. It usually affects cervicofacial, thoracic and abdominal tissue. Cervicofacial type has the highest percentage of occurrence with 50%. Actinomycosis frequently occurs following dental extraction, jaw surgery, chronic infection or poor oral hygiene. It may also be considered as an opportunistic infection in immunocompromised patients such as malignancy, human immunodeficiency virus infection, diabetes mellitus, steroid usage or alcoholism. But, actinomycosis rarely occurs in adults with normal immunity and rare in the esophagus. We report an unusual case of esophageal actinomycosis which was developed in a patient with normal immunity and improved by therapy with intravenous penicillin G followed oral amoxicillin, and we also reviewed the associated literature.

김재곤,김영진,김영신,백병주 大韓小兒齒科學會 2001 大韓小兒齒科學會誌 Vol.28 No.4

교합면의 열구는 우식이 발생하기 쉬운 위치이며, 특히 초기우식병소는 건전해 보이는 법랑질 하방에서 진행되는 경우가 많고, 주위 건전 법랑질과 잘 구별되지 않아서 주기적인 검사에도 불구하고 우식의 치료 시기를 놓치는 경우가 종종 있다. 초기 우식을 조기에 진단할 경우 불소도포, 식이조절, 치태조절 능력개선 그리고 타액분비 촉진 등의 방법으로 그 병리적 과정을 차단하고, 조기에 치료할 수 있다는 관점에서 조기 진단은 중요시 되고 있다. 본 연구는 발거된 치아에서 교합면 우식을 검출하기 위해 두가지 전통적인 진단법인 시진, 방사선 검사법에 대하여 레이저 형광측정법을 이용한 새로운 우식진단기구인 Diagnodent (Biberach , Germany)의 민감도, 특이도 그리고 정확도를 비교함으로서 교합면 초기 우식 병소에 대한 가장 신뢰성 있는 진단 방법에 대하여 평가하고자 하였으며 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. Diagnodent는 건전치에서 7.8, 초기우식에서 25.4, 법랑질 우식에서는 30.5 그리고 상아질 우식에서는 53.8의 평균값을 나타냈다. 2. 염료를 이용한 치아조직표본검사와 스피어만과 피어슨 상관계수에서 Diagnodent(0.736, 0.619)와 시진(0.664, 0.666)에서 높은 상관성을 나타냈고 방사선 촬영검사(0.333, 0.335)에서 가장 낮은 상관성을 나타냈다(P<0.01, 전체). 3. 교합면 우식진단의 정확도는 Diagnodent의 민감도와 특이도가 가장 높았고 방사선 검사가 34%로 가장 낮았다. 4. 초기 우식의 경우, Diagnodent의 민감도와 특이도가 가장 높았고 법랑질 우식의 경우, 시신의 민감도가 가장 높았으며 Diagnodent의 특이도가 가장 높았다. 상아질 우식의 경우, Diagnodent의 민감도와 특이도가 가장 높았으며 시진의 민감도가 가장 낮았다. The aims of this study were to compare the accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of cnventional visual examination, radiography and a new laser fluorescence method, KaVo Diagnodent, for the detection of occlusal caries lesions. One hundred sound human premolars and molars which had no restorations or interproximal cavities were tested by three methods. Tooth lesions depth was assessed at histologic examination using Caries detector dye The following results were obtained. 1. Diagnodent show 7.8 in sound tooth, 25.4 in initial caries, 30.5 in enamel caries, and 53.8 in dentin caries with average score 2. Spearman and Pearson relation coefficient was high between tooth-specimen test with dye and Diagnodent(0.736, 0.619), visual examination(0.664, 0.666), and was low between tooth-specimen test with dye and radiographic examination(P<0.01, total) 3. Accuracy of occlusal caries was highest on Diagnodent(65%) and lowest on radiographic examination(35%) 4. In initial caries, the sensitivity and specificity of Diagnodent method was the highest. In enamel caries, the sensitivity of visual examination was the highest and specificity of Diagnodent method was the highest. In dentinal caries, the sensitivity and specificity of Diagnodent method was the highest and sensitivity of visual examination was the lowest.

Recently technology resulted in highly efficient and multiple-functional electric appliances considering environmental problems. One of the environmental problems is noise of a product in respect to its function. A vacuum cleaner is an essential electric appliance in our daily lives. However, severe noise resulted from high motor speed for improving the function of the appliance is a nuisance for the user. This noise is caused by vibration from various parts of the appliance and fluid noise during a series of intake and exhaust processes while rotating the impeller connected to the axle at a high speed of the fan motor inside the vacuum cleaner rotating around 30,000-35,000 rpm. Despite the fact that many researchers conducted studies on reducing the noise level of the fan motor in a vacuum cleaner, only few studies have been conducted considering both the theoretical and experimental aspects using fluid analysis by measuring vibration and noise. Moreover, there has not been a study that accurately compared major noise data obtained considering both of the aspects. In this study, both aspects were considered by considering the following experimental and theoretical methods to verify the major causes of noise from the fan motor in a vacuum cleaner.

김지혜,고선규,고효정,권영아,김성환,김재경,김태은,박재우,서민영,송영란,이인수,김도관 大韓神經精神醫學會 2003 신경정신의학 Vol.42 No.2

Objectives : We examined the effects of INM 176 (K-l107) compared with placebo on the cognitive functions of 92 old aged subjects with cognitive impairment. Methods : This was a prospective, 12 week, double-blind, Placebo-controlled clinical trial. The elderly who achieved a score of less than 25 points on the K-MMSE or showed a high risk of Alzheimer's disease from the 7-Minute Neurocognitive Screening Battery were considered to have objective impairment and were selected as subjects for this study. The subjects were randomized to placebo or INM 176 group. The outcome measures were from the Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-cognitive subscale (ADAS-Cog), the Instrumental Activities ofDaily Living (IADL) and the Korean Geriatric Depression Scale (KGDS) and two kinds of computerized priming tests. After setting the total error score in the Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive section (ADAS-cog) as the repeated measurement factor, an analysis of variance of the combined factor design was done between the placebo and INM 176 group. Results : The interaction effect of time (pre- and post-trial) and group (placebo and INM 176 group) was significant in the analysis of the ADAS-cog's total error score. The INM 176 group's total error score in the ADAS-cog decreased significantly (p<0.01), whereas the placebo group showed a slight increase. The mean changes in IADL and GDS from baseline scores favored in the INM 176 group than in the placebo group. Outcome changes ofADAS-cog, IADL, KGDS scores during the 12 week clinical trail ofINM 176 and placebo demonstrated favorable responses in the INM176 administered group. Conclusions : This is a preliminary clinical trial result of INM176 as a memory pill. Based on these results, INM176 may be a candidate molecule for the improvement of cognitive functions, including memory, Further clinical trial should demonstrate its efficacy.

Quantitative comparison of mRNA expression of glucosyltransferase(GTF) between xylitol-resistant(X^(R)) and xylitol-sensitive(X^(s)) mutans streptococci

Kim, Chong-Chul,Lee, Mi-Na,Kim, Young-Jae,Lee, Sung-Hoon 大韓小兒齒科學會 2006 大韓小兒齒科學會誌 Vol.33 No.1

Since the long-term exposure of mutans streptococci to xylitol is known to select for xylitol-resistant(X^(R)) natural mutants, the occurrence and survival of such X^(R) strains were performed in batch culture methods. The aim of the study was to compare the differentiation and quantification of mRNA expression of the gtf genes of X^(R) and X^(S) mutans streptococci. Using a real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction, the expression of each gtf was determined. In X^(R) strains, the relative levels of transcription of gtfB and gtfC were decreased while that of gtfD was increased, suggesting the presence of independent promoters. It also suggested that mutation related to production of glucosyltransferase occurred under the exposure of xylitol could explain the caries-preventive mechanisms of xylitol. 자일리톨에 장기간 노출된 mutans streptococci는 자일리톨에 내성이 발현되어 자일리톨 내성균주가 생성된다고 알려져 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 mutans streptococci에서 자일리톨 내성균주와 감성균주의 gtf 유전자 발현량을 각각의 유전자별로 정량적으로 분석하고 비교하는 것이다. 실시간 역전사 중합효소연쇄반응법을 이용하여 각각의 gtf 발현을 조사한 결과 gtfD는 증가한 반면. gtfB와 gtfC는 감소하였는데 이는 각 유전자의 독립된 조절기전이 존재함을 보여주는 것이다. 또한 자일리톨에 노출된 mutans streptococci에서의 glucosyltransferase와 연관된 유전자변형이 자일리톨의 치아우식증 예방효과의 작용기전 중 하나임을 알 수 있었다.

Purpose: To show various MR spectroscopy and correlated pathologic images of retinoblastoma in nude mouse with a new human retinoblastom cell line (SNUOT-Rbl) which innoculated into intravitreous cavity. Materials and Methods: The established cell line was innoculated into mtravitreous cavity of 14 eyeballs of 7 mice and a transplanted retinoblastoma was examed for 1 month. Tl-weighted image (T1WI), T2-weihgted image (T2WI), and MR spectroscopy were obtained with 1.5 Tesla MRI (Magnetom Vision, Siemens, Erlangen, Germany) and 4.7 Tesla MRI (Bruker, Medizintechnik GmbH, Karlsruhe-Ettlingen, Germany). After scanning, eyeballs were extracted and hematoxylin & eosin stained specimens were examined with the microscope. We compared MR spectroscopy with pathologic findings and evaluated characters of tumors. Results: Innoculated cells into eyeball of mice grew retinoblastoma (8/14, 57%). Eyeball with retinoblastoma protruded externally and showed focal hemorrhage. Tumors showed low (n=3), iso (n=4), high (n=1) signal intensity on TIWI, low (n=5), iso (n=1), high (n=2) signal intensity on T2WI, and well enhancement (n=8) with contrast, Involvement of optic nerve was suspected by MRI and confirmed by pathology (n=1). Conclusion: We could demonstrate MR spectroscopy of transplanted retinoblastoma by new tumor cell line in vivo. This imaging technique facilitate molecular imaging investigation of retinoblastoma.
