Background: Ginseng (Panax ginseng Meyer) is an important medicinal herbs in Asia. However, ginsengvarieties are less developed. Method: To developed ginseng varieties, a pure line selection method was applied in this study. Results: Gumpoong was testing of 4-yr-old specimens in 2002, the proportions of the below-groundroots that were rusty colored for Gumpoong was 1.29 in Daejeon and 1.45 in Eumseong, whereas theproportions for its yellow berry variant were 2.60 and 2.45 in the two regions, respectively. Thus theGumpoong was resistant to root rust. Sunpoong has a high yielding property. Its average root weight is70.6 g for 6-yr-old roots. Its yield is 2.9 kg/1.62m2 and the rate of heaven- and earth-grade product is20.9%, which is very high compared to 9.4% for Yunpoong. Sunone is resistance to root rot and thesurvival rate of 4-yr-old roots was 44.4% in 1997, whereas that of the violet-stem variant landrace was21.7%. Sunhyang has content of arginyl-fructosyl-glucose (AFG), which produces the unique scent of redginseng, is 95.1 mmol/g and greater than the 30.8 mmol/g of Chunpoong in 6-yr-old plants. Sunun andCheongsun are being nurtured to protect genetic resources. Conclusion: Developed ginsneg varieties will be used as the basis for the protection of genetic resourcesand breeding. Jang-Ho Lee

There are two self-recognitions in George Herbert's consciousness, the first one is religious self-recognition that man has to stand in awe of God and praise to the Lord God in heaven. The other one is worldly self-recognition realized in his early academic achievements, social position and his earthly temptations. When he was seventeen he declared that he dropped the secular petrarchan style of poetry and wrote only religious poems intentionally. At this time of declaration, his religious self-recognition had been fastened upon his mind. But when he was a Public Orator at University and a member of parliament in his home town. the worldly self-recognition had been set up in his consciousness gradually. He layed the position down daringly to be a priest that he got more religious self-recognition than worldly self-recognition at that time. When he was in the church, worldly temptation and desire afflicted him continuously. But I think that it was God's providence to solidify his religious self-recognition more than ever. Even though he was discontented about his tied life to God and the conflict between worldly and spiritual recognitions, the religious self-recognition always won in his consciousness since the root of his belief was so deep. His conflict had been resolved to see Christ's salvation and then he could dedicated his mind and soul to the Lord God in heaven. There are several steps of belief in Herbert's poetry, the first step is in making a covenant to praise and pray to God. And the second step is fulfillment of the covenant. In the fulfillment, there is some kind of impact between worldly temptation and religious duty in the third step. In the last step, however, the conflict caused by afflictions changed him to become obedient influenced by his religious self-recognition, then he could enter the road of God's salvation.

변박장,문충배,이인수 順川鄕病院 1976 順天鄕醫報 Vol.1 No.2

Case 1 is a boy of 5 7-ears, sustained craniocerebral injury and the emergency operation revealed subdural hematoma of ca 100 cc in the left frontal region with diffuse cerebral contusion, the hematoma was removed, and the craniectomy remained a skull defect of ca 7 cm in diameter on the left frontal region. The patient had been in a coma vigil state for two months there-after. When cranioplasty was made 7 months later, we found a large porencephaly in the left frontoparietal region which communicated broardly with the underlying left lateral ventricle. Case 2 is a boy of 3 months, sustained craniocerebral injury to make a linear fracture on the left parietal region and subdural hematoma of ca 60 co on the right frontoparietal region with diffuse cerebra1 contusion. The emergency operation was done to remove the hematoma, and left a skull defect of ca 4 cm in diameter on the right frontoparietal region. There-after the patient had remained in chronic coma like state and the skull had not grown any more. The head circumference had been in 41 cm till the age of 1 year and 5 months. Craniosrnostosis had occurred. At age of 11 months, in 8 months after the emergency operation we had performed the second operation to correct the craniosynostosis, while we found a large porencephaly in the right frontoparietal region which communicated broardly with the underlying right lateral ventricle. And also we ascertained that the development of the brain was ceased to make the secondary microcephaly with the craniosynos tosis. These two children gave rise to the large porencephaly in the frontoparietal area of one cerebral hemisphere as the later complication of the craniocerebral injury like a congenital porencephalic cyst.

약물용출 스텐트를 이용한 관상동맥중재술 후 재협착의 독립적 예측인자에 관한 연구

김인수(In-Soo Kim)한재복(Jae-Bok Han),장성주(Seong-Joo Jang),장영일(Young-Ill Jang) 대한방사선과학회(구 대한방사선기술학회) 2010 방사선기술과학 Vol.33 No.1

본 연구에서는 약물용출성 스텐트 삽입 후 재협착에 관한 독립적 인자를 확인하고 MDCT로 측정된 calcium score가 재협착 발생의 예측인자로써 가능성을 알아보고자 하였다. 2006년 5월부터 2009년 5월까지 전남대학교병원에서 MDCT상 관상동맥 협착이 발견되어 약물 용출 스텐트를 삽입 받은 환자 1,131명 중 추적검사로 관상동맥조영술을 시행되었던 178명(남자 159명, 여자 19명, 평균 연령 61.7, 연령분포 51~71세), 190개소 병변을 대상으로 하였으며 재협착 여부에 따라 두 군(비협착군 133병변, 재협착군 57병변)으로 나누어 비교 ․ 분석하였다. 그 결과 임상진단명은 진구성 심근경색이 비협착군 3예(2.3%), 재협착군 5예(8.8%)로 유의한 차이가 있었으며(p = 0.040), 급성 심근경색증, 불안정 협심증, 안정 협심증의 유병률은 차이가 없었다. 관상동맥 조영술 소견에서 병변 혈관의 위치는 재협착군에서 좌주간지 병변이 더 많았다(0.8% vs. 5.3%, p = 0.047). 스텐트 직경은 재협착군에서 유의하게 작았으며(3.3±0.4 mm vs. 3.1±0.3 mm, p = 0.004), 스텐트 길이는 양군 간에 차이가 없었다. 관상동맥 조영술 상 혈관의 초기 협착 정도는 재협착군에서 더 심했으며(86.1±11.4% vs. 91.5±9.2%, p = 0.001), 복잡 병변(B2/C형)은 양 군간에 차이가 없었다. 연령은 재협착군에서 더 높았고(60.2±9.9세 vs. 65.8±9.0세, p = 0.0001), 흡연력과 고지혈증은 비협착군에서(42.1% vs. 19.3%, p = 0.003, 23.3% vs. 8.8%, p = 0.019), 그리고 당뇨병은 재협착군에서 많았다(21.8% vs. 52.6%, p = 0.0001). 심초음파로 측정한 좌심실 구혈률은 양 군 간에 유의한 차이는 없었다. 전체 MDCT coronary artery calcium scoring는 비협착군 371.2±500.8, 재협착군 389.3±458.3로 차이가 없었고, 목표혈관과 좌주간지, 좌전하행지, 좌회선지 및 우관상동맥 각각의 calcium score 역시 양군 간 차이가 없었다. 다 변량 로지스틱 회귀분석에서 좌주간지병변(OR = 168.0, 95% CI = 7.83-3,604.3, p = 0.001), 남성(OR = 36.5, 95% CI = 5.89-2,226.9, p = 0.0001), 당뇨병의 존재(OR = 2.62, 95% CI = 1.071~6.450, p = 0.035)가 약물용출성 스텐트 삽입 후 재협착 발생에 대한 독립적인 예측인자이었다. 따라서 관상동맥 협착에 대해 약물용출 스텐트를 삽입 받은 환자에서 스텐트 내 재협착의 발생은 좌주간지병변, 남성, 당뇨병의 존재와 관련이 있었으나, MDCT로 측정된 calcium score는 재협착 발생에 대한 독립적인 예측인자로써 기능은 없었다. We sought to confirm an independent factor about in-stent restenosis (ISR) in the patients who underwent drug-eluting stent (DES) and know a possibility as a predictor of measured coronary artery calcium score by MDCT. A total of 178 patients (159 men, 61.7±10.0 years of age) with 190 coronary artery lesions were included in this study out of 1,131 patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with DES implantation for significant stenosis on MDCT at Chonnam National University Hospital between May 2006 and May 2009. All lesions were divided into two groups with the presence of ISR : group I (re ISR, N = 57) and group II (no ISR, N = 133). Compared to group II, group I was more likely to be older (65.8±9.0 vs. 60.2±9.9 years, p = 0.0001), diabetic (21.8% vs. 52.6%, p = 0.0001), have old myocardial infarction (8.8% vs. 2.3%, p = 0.040), left main stem disease (5.3% vs. 0.8%, p = 0.047), and smaller stent size (3.1±0.3 mm vs. 3.3±0.4 mm, p = 0.004). Group II was more likely to be smokers (19.3% vs. 42.1%, p = 0.003), have dyslipidemia (8.8% vs. 23.3%, p = 0.019). Left ventricular ejection fraction, lesion complexity, and stent length were not different between the two groups. Total CAC score was 389.3±458.3 in group I and 371.2±500.8 in group II (p = 0.185). No statistical difference was observed between the groups in CAC score in the culprit vessel, left main stem, left anterior descending artery, left circumflex artery, and right coronary artery. On multivariate logistic regression analysis, left main stem disease (OR = 168.0, 95% CI = 7.83-3,604.3, p = 0.001), male sex (OR = 36.5, 95% CI = 5.89-2,226.9, p = 0.0001), and the presence of diabetes (OR = 2.62, 95% CI = 1.071-6.450, p = 0.035) were independent predictors of ISR after DES implantation. In patients who underwent DES implantation for significant coronary stenosis on MDCT, ISR was associated with left main stem disease, male sex, and the presence of diabetes. However, CAC score by MDCT was not a predictor of ISR in this study population.

약물방출 스텐트 (drug-eluting stents, DES)는 일반금속 스텐트에 비하여 재협착을 현저하게 줄었지만, DES의 구조적인 특성으로 인한 스텐트 혈전증 (stent thrombosis, ST)이 증가한다고 알려져 있다. 혈전증 유형의 정의는 Early ST ; (EST)은 30일 이내, Late ST ; (LST)은 31일 이상에서 1년 이내 그리고 Very late ST ; (VLST)은 1년 이상으로 분류 하였다. 스텐트 세대별 (시장 출시와 스텐트 디자인, Polymer 향상에 따른) ST발생빈도, 임상 양상 및 예후를 알아보았다. 2003년 6월부터 2013년 6월까지의 전남대학교병원 심혈관센터에서 경피적 관상동맥 중재술을 시행 받은 10,273명 중 ST 발생은 134명(1.30%) 이었다. 세대별 발생빈도는 1세대에서 81명 (0.79%)으로 높았으며, 세대별 ST 유형은 1세대에서는 VLST의 발생률이 높았고 (p=0.002), 2세대에서는 EST와 LST의 발생률이 높았지만 (p=0.025), 3세대에서는 유의한 차이가 없었다(p=0.278). ST로 인하여 사망한 14명은 EST 10명 (18.2%), LST 2명(8.3%), VLST 2명 (3.6%)로서 EST에서 사망률이 높았다 (p=0.042). DES 시술 후 발생하는 ST는 1.3%이였고, VLST는 1세대 스텐트에서 많았으며, 입원 중 사망률은 EST에서 높았다. Stent thrombosis after successful drug-eluting stent(DES) implantation has been reported in around 1% of patients in clinical trials. However, the increased risk of ST associated with DES remains a matter of concern. From 1 June 2003 to 30 June 2013, we investigated clinical characteristics, in-hospital outcomes in 10,273 patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention in the Heart Center of CNUH. Overall incidence of ST was 1.30% (134 patients). The incidence of ST according to the stent generations and the timing of ST (n= total, early vs. late vs. very late) were 0.79% (n =81, 26 vs. 12 vs. 43) in first-generation, 0.38% (n=39, 21 vs. 9 vs. 9) in second-generation and 0.14% (n=14, 8 vs 3 vs. 3) in third-generation, (p=0.70). The mortality from ST was significantly higher in early ST group compared to the late and very late ST groups (18.2% vs. 8.3% vs. 3.6%, p=0.042). Overall incidence of ST after DES implantation was 1.30% (134 patients). The in-hospital mortality was significantly higher in early ST group compared to the late and very late ST groups.

To assess lead exposure in Korean lead workers, 2047 male lead workers in 17 lead using industries were studied. Study population were divided into 4 occupation categories such as storage battery industry(type 1), secondary smelting and litharge making industries(type 2), PVC stabilizer making industries(type 3) and primary smelting and related industries (type 4). Blood lead and zinc protoporphyrin in whole blood (ZPP) were selected as an index of lead exposure. Hemoglobin and hematocrit were also checked. Fifteen questionnaires of lead related symptoms were provided to all lead workers and filled up by themselves and confirmed by medical doctors. Personal variables such as age, work duration, smoking and drinking habits were also collected. the results were as follows. 1) The mean blood lead, ZPP and hemoglobin of all lead workers were 29.7+12.6㎍/100㎖, 56.5+38.6㎍/100㎖ and 14.6+1.3 gm/100㎖ respectively. 2) While the mean blood lead of lead workers in type 1, 2, 3 and 4 were 28.6+11.6㎍/100㎖, 46.2+15.3 ㎍/100㎖, 46.8+12.1 ㎍/100㎖ and 26.2+10.2 ㎍/100㎖, the mean value of blood ZPP of those workers were 53.6+32.6 ㎍/100㎖, 108.1+87.1 ㎍/100㎖, 98.9 +54.9 ㎍/100㎖ and 45.8+19.5 ㎍/100㎖ respectively. 3) The percents of lead workers whose blood lead were 40-59.9 ㎍/100㎖ and over 60.0 ㎍/100㎖ were 17.6% and 2.1% respectively. Those whose blood lead were 40-59.9 ㎍/100㎖ and over 60.0 ㎍/100㎖ were 15.18% and 0.96% for type 1, 43.59% and 21.79% for type 2, 58.89% and 12.22% for type 3 and 11.82% and 0% for type 4 respectively. 4) The percents of lead workers whose blood ZPP were 100-149 ㎍/100㎖ and over 150 ㎍/100㎖ were 5.17% and 3.17% respectively. Those whose blood ZPP were 100-149 ㎍/100㎖ and over 150 ㎍/100㎖ were 4.66% and 2.04% for type 1, 10.26% and 25.64% for type 2, 23.33 and 13.33% for type 3 and 1.28% and 0.32% for type 4 respectively. 5) The prevalence rate of smoking and drinking of male lead workers in all lead industries were 70.8% and 71.0% respectively. While the mean blood lead of smoker, non-smoker, drinker and non-drinker were 30.24+12.58 ㎍/100㎖, 28.35+12.7 ㎍/100㎖, 30.24 ㎍/100㎖ and 28.74 ㎍/100㎖ respectively, the mean blood ZPP of those were 55.7+37.1 ㎍/100㎖, 58.4+41.9 ㎍/100㎖, 55.7+36.5 ㎍/100㎖ and 58.4+43.3 ㎍/100㎖ respectively. 6) While the correlation of hematocrit corrected blood lead with other lead exposure variables were higher than non-corrected blood lead, the correlation of log-transformed ZPP with other lead exposure variables were higher than non-corrected blood ZPP. 7) The most frequent symptom among 15 lead related symptom questionnaires was 'general fatigue' and the next one was 'feeling irritated with disturbance' and least one was 'acute abdominal pain around the umbilicus' in all lead workers. The overall prevalence of lead workers in storage battery industry and primary lead smelting industry were higher than secondary lead smelting and PVC stabilizer making industries. 8) The prevalence of lead related symptoms was a little higher in 13 symptoms in smokers than non-smokers and in 14 symptoms in drinker than non-drinkers, but they were not statistically significant. 9) Stepwise multiple regression analysis, using overall symptom prevalence as a dependent variable blood lead, blood ZPP, hemoglobin, age, work duration, drinking and smoking habits as independent variables, indicated that smoking habit, drinking habit and age were significantly contributed to the dependent variable. 10) The slopes of simple linear regression of blood lead (independent variable) with blood ZPP and log-transformed ZPP as dependent variable were different among 4 types of lead industries. The slope of lead industries with low mean blood lead were less steeper than those with high mean blood lead.

관상동맥 약물 방출 스텐트 삽입 후 스텐트 골절에 대한 임상결과 및 예후

김인수(In Soo Kim),한재복(Jae Bok Han),장성주(Seong Joo Jang) 대한방사선과학회(구 대한방사선기술학회) 2014 방사선기술과학 Vol.37 No.2

본 연구에서는 관상동맥 중재술로 관상동맥 약물방출 스텐트(drug-eluting stent, DES) 삽입 후 스텐트 골절에 대한 임상적 특성, 결과 및 예후에 대하여 연구하였다. 약물방출 스텐트 시술을 받고 추적 관상동맥조영술을 실시한 4,701명 환자에서 스텐트 골절이 발생한 환자는 32명(남:여=19:13, 평균연령 62.44±9.8세, 0.68%)이었다. DES의 종류별 스텐트 골절의 빈도는 SES(sirolimus- eluting stents) 19(59.4%), PES(paclitaxel-eluting stents) 9명(28.1%), BES(biolimus A9-eluting stents) 2명(6.3%), EES(everolimus-eluting stents) 1명(3.1%), EPC(endothelial progenitor cell capture stent) 1명(3.1%), ZES(zotarolimus-eluting stents) 0명(0%) 이었다. 표적 병변은 우관상동맥 13명(40.6%) 좌전하행지 16명(50.0%), 좌회선지 3명(9.4%)이었다. 각 혈관의 병변 형태는 복잡병변인 B2, C형이 25명(69.4%)이었다. 스텐트 골절 환자 중 스텐트 내 협착은 17명(53.1%)이었으며, 스텐트 골절 병변에 대한 치료는 내과적 관찰 16명(50.0%), 동종의 관상동맥 DES 시술 3명(9.4%), 이종의 관상동맥 DES 시술 10명(31.3%), 관상동맥 풍선 확장술 3명(9.4%)이었다. 추적검사에서는 32.9±12.4개월 동안 스텐트 골절로 인한 사망을 포함한 심장사는 발생하지 않았다. 결론적으로 관상동맥 중재술로 관상동맥 DES를 시술받은 추적관찰 대상 환자에서 3.7년 추적관찰 기간동안 스텐트 골절 발생률은 0.68%로 나타났으며, PES보다 SES에서 많은 발생 빈도를 보였다. 좌전하행지와 복잡병변에 대한 시술 후 스텐트 골절이 많이 발생하였다. 또한 스텐트 골절 정도와 협착 병변이 중대한 경우에만 관상동맥 중재술을 실시하였으며, 추적관찰 기간 중 스텐트 골절이 있는 환자는 병용 항혈소판 요법을 지속적으로 투여하였다. 특히 사망을 포함한 주요 심장사건에 관련하여 스텐트 골절과 연관된 심장사의 발생률은 매우 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해서 스텐트가 가지고 있는 특성 스텐트 디자인이 폐쇄형(closed cell) 디자인 SES에서 발생 빈도가 높음을 제시함으로써 스텐트 개발에 도움이 될 거라 판단된다. Many studies have suggested that in the era of Drug-Eluting Stents(DES) are one of the causes of In-Stent Restenosis(ISR) of Stent Fracture(SF). The present study sought to evaluate clinical characteristics of patients with stent fracture after successful DES implantation. The 4,701 patients were selected for analysis who underwent a follow-up coronary angiography irre-spective of ischemic symptoms. The overall incidence of SF was 32 patients(male:female=19:13, Av. age 62.44±9.8year, 0.68%). Fractures of Sirolimus-Eluting Stents(SES), Paclitaxel-Eluting Stents(PES), Biolimus A9-Eluting Stents(BES), Everolimus-Eluting Etents(EES), Endothelial Progenitor Cell Capture Stent(EPC) and Zotarolimus-Eluting Stents(ZES) are accounted for 19(59.4%), 9(28.1%),2(6.3%),1(3.1%),1(3.1%)and 0(0%) respectively. SF developed in the left Anterior Dscending(LAD) artery in 16 patients(50%) and in complex(type B2, C) lesions in 25 patients(69.4%). Ten patients were treated with heterogenous DES, the rest being treated with either homogenous DES(3 patients), plain old balloon angioplasty(3 patients), or conservative medical treatment(17 patients). None of the patients with SF suffered from cardiac death dur-ing a follow-up period of 32.9±12.4 months. The overall rate of DES fracture over up to 3.7 years of follow-up was 0.68% with higher incidence in SES than in PES. SF frequently occurred in the LAD artery and in complex lesions. Of the patients with SF, coronary intervention was performed only when the binary restenosis lesion was significant. During the follow-up, patients with SF have continued on combination antiplatelet therapy. There is a very low rate of major adverse cardiac events(post-detection of SF), especially cardiac death associated with SF.

GR-tree: 무선 센서 네트워크에서 에너지 효율적인 분산 공간색인기법

김민수,장인성,Kim, Min-Soo,Jang, In-Sung 한국공간정보학회 2011 한국공간정보학회지 Vol.19 No.5

최근 특정 공간영역 내에 포함되는 센서노드들만의 센싱정보를 에너지 효율적으로 수집하는 센서 네트워크 기반 공간질의처리에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 이러한 센서 네트워크 기반 공간질의처리의 가장 단순한 방법은 모든 센서노드의 위치와 센싱정보를 서버로 수집한 다음, 서버에서 공간질의를 처리하는 Centralized 방법이다. 이 방법은 간단하다는 장점은 있지만, 모든 센서노드를 접근하기 위하여 소요되는 높은 무선통신 비용으로 인하여 센서노드의 에너지 효율성이 크게 떨어지는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 Centralized 방법을 보완하기 위하여 센서노드에서 분산 공간 필터링을 수행하여 센서노드 간의 무선통신 횟수를 감소시키는 In-network 기반 분산 공간색인기법들이 제안되어 왔다. 그러나, 이러한 분산 공간색인기법들은 대부분 서버에서 이용되던 기존 공간색인기법들을 센서 네트워크에 단순히 적용하였기 때문에, In-network 환경에서 공간 필터링의 효과와 센서노드들 간의 무선 라우팅을 동시에 최적화하지 못하는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 In-network 환경에서 공간 필터링을 최적화하면서 동시에 센서노드들 간의 라우팅을 보장할 수 있는 GR-tree의 새로운 분산 공간색인기법을 제안하고자 한다. GR-tree 방법은 R-tree와 유사하게 MBR 기반의 트리를 구성하며, 센서노드들 간의 무선 라우팅 및 공간적인 인접성을 보장하면서 MBR들 간의 겹침을 최소화할 수 있는 특징을 가지고 있다. 끝으로, GR-tree와 기존 방법들의 다양한 성능 비교 실험을 통하여 제안된 방법의 효율성을 보여주고자 한다. Recently, there has been much interest in the spatial query which energy-efficiently acquires sensor readings from sensor nodes inside specified geographical area of interests. The centralized approach which performs the spatial query at a server after acquiring all sensor readings, though simple, it incurs high wireless transmission cost in accessing all sensor nodes. In order to remove the high wireless transmission cost, various in-network spatial indexing schemes have been proposed. They have focused on reducing the transmission cost by performing distributed spatial filtering on sensor nodes. However, these in-network spatial indexing schemes have a problem which cannot optimize both the spatial filtering and the wireless routing among sensor nodes, because these schemes have been developed by simply applying the existing spatial indexing schemes into the in-network environment. Therefore, we propose a new distributed spatial indexing scheme of the GR-tree. The GR-tree which form s a MBR-based tree structure, can reduce the wireless transmission cost by optimizing both the efficient spatial filtering and the wireless routing. Finally, we compare the existing spatial indexing scheme through extensive experiments and clarify our approach's distinguished features.

목적: hNIS는 갑상선 조직 외에 다른 조직들에서도 발현된다고 알려져 있다. 유방암 세포는 그런 조직들 중에 하나이며, 그에 의한 유방암의 방사성옥소치료의 가능성이 제시되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 유방암 조직에서 hNIS의 발현정도를 알아보고, ^99mTc-MIBI 유방스캔과 hNIS의 발현 정도와의 관계를 조사하여 보았다. 대상 및 방법: 본 연구에서는 유방암으로 수술을 시행했던 56명의 환자를 대상으로 하였다. hNIS의 발현은 면역조직화학염색에 의해서 평가되었으며, 그 결과를 ^99mTc-MIBI 유방스캔의 판정 결과와 비교하였다. 결과: 전체 56명의 환자에서 hNIS의 발현율은 41.1%였다. 병리학적 진단에 의해 침윤성관상피암종이었던 49명에서의 발현율은 42.9%, 관상피내암종이었던 7명에서의 발현율은 28.6%였다. ^99mTc-MIBI 유방스캔에서 국소섭취 소견이 관찰되었던 41명에서의 hNIS의 발현율은 31.7%였다. 비정상적인 섭취 소견이 관찰되지 않았던 15명의 환자에서의 hNIS의 발현율이 의미있게 높게 관찰되었다(66.7%, p>0.05). 결론: 유방암 환자에서의 hNIS의 발현율은 그다지 높지 않았다. ^99mTc-MIBI 유방스캔에서 섭취증가 소견이 없을 때 hNIS의 발현율이 더 높았다. Purpose: Human Na^+/I- symporter (hNIS) is known to be expressed in many tissues other than thyroid gland. The breast cancer cells are one of them and the possibility of radioiodine therapy in treatment of the breast cancer may be suggested. We investigated the expression rate of hNIS and the relationship between the expression of hNIS and the finding of 99mTc-MIBI scintimammography in the breast cancer. Materials and Methods: Surgically proved 56 patients with breast cancer were the subjects of this study. The expression of hNIS were evaluated by immunohistochemistry and the results were compared to the findings of 99mTc-MIBI scintimammography. Results: Overall expression rate of hNIS was 41.1% in 56 patients. According to the pathologic diagnosis, it was 42.9% in 49 patients with invasive ductal carcinoma and 28.6% in the 7 patients with ductal carcinoma in situ. The expression rate of hNIS in the 41 cases with a focal increased uptake at he breast lesion on 99mTc-MIBI scintimammogram was 31.7%. That in the 15 cases without any abnormal uptake on the scan was significantly higher(66.7%, p<0.05). Conclusion: The expression rate of hNIS in the patients with breast cancer was not so high. The rate was higher in the patients with no increased uptake at the breast lesion on 99mTc-MIBI scintimammography. (Korean J Nucl Med 2002;36;325-32)
