Background: There are clinical studies demonstrating the positive effect of electrical stimuli on hair regrowth. However, the underlying mechanism and optimal parameter settings are not clarified. Objectives: To investigate the effects of different parameter settings of electrical stimuli on hair growth by examining changes in human dermal papilla cells (hDPCs) in vitro and by observing molecular changes in animal tissue. Methods: In vitro, cultured hDPCs were electrically stimulated with different parameter settings. Cell proliferation was measured by MTT assay. The Ki67 expression was measured by immunofluorescence. Hair growth-related gene expressions were measured by RT-PCR. In animal model, different parameter settings were applied to the shaved dorsal skin of rabbit for 8 weeks. Expression of hair-related genes in the skin of rabbit was examined by RT-PCR.Results: At low voltage power (3.5V) and low frequency (1MHz or 2MHz) alterating current, in vitro proliferation of hDPCs was successfully induced. A significant increase in Wnt/モ-catenin, Ki67, p-ERK and p-AKT expression was observed. In animal model, hair regrowth was observed in the entire stimulated areas and expression of hair-related genes in the skin significantly increased. Conclusion: There are optimal conditions for electric stimulated hair growth and they might be different in the cells, animal, and human tissue. Electric stimuli induces mechanisms such as activation of Wnt/モ-catenin and MAPK pathway in hair follicles.

Background: Frequency electrical stimulation is clinically being used in variable skin therapeutic conditions such as skin rejuvenation and hair disorder. There have been several clinical studies demonstrating the positive effect of electrical stimuli on hair regrowth. However, its exact mechanism is yet to be clarified. Objectives: The objective of this study is to investigate effects of different electrical parameter settings on hair growth by revealing the changes of dermal papilla cell in vitro and at microscopic level in animal tissue. Methods: Cultured dermal papilla cells (DPCs) and dorsal skin of rabbit were electrically stimulated with different parameter settings at alternating-current to find the optimal condition for hair growth. Cell viability and proliferation were measured by MTT. In addition, Ki67, proliferation marker, expression was measured by immunofluorescence. Hair growth-related gene expression in DPCs and the skin of rabbit were measured by RT-PCR. Results: At certain electrical settings, DPCs responded well and their proliferation was successfully induced. Wnt/β -catenin, Ki67, p-ERK and p-AKT expressions in DPCs increased at certain frequency settings. Dermal thickness and hair related genes (PDGF, VEGF, SOX9 and KGF) expressions in the skin of rabbit also significantly increased. Conclusion: These data suggest that electrical stimulations at certain electrical settings, may give more effective therapeutic outcomes for hair growth.

연구목적 : 본 시험의 목적은 임상시험 시작전에 연구자들을 대상으로 PANSS Workshop을 통하여 PANSS, ESRS에 대한 국내에서의 표준화 작업을 구축하고 새로운 정신병 치료제인 리스페리돈의 효과와 안정성을 재확인하여 리스페리돈 사용에 대한 적정화를 이루는데 있다. 연구방법 : 1996년 4월부터 1996년 9월까지 국내 39개 대학병원 정신과에 입원중인 혹은 증상이 악화되어 입원하는 정신분열병 환자 377명을 대상으로 다시설 개방 연구를 시행하였다. 1주일간의 약물 배설기간을 가진후, 리스페리돈을 8주간 투여하였고, 기준점, 1주, 2주, 4주, 그리고 8주후에 평가되었다. 용량은 제1일에는 리스페리돈 1mg씩 1일 2회, 제2일에는 2mg씩 1일 2회, 제3∼7일에는 3mg씩 1일 2회 투여하였다. 이후 환자의 임상상태에 따라 임의로 증량할 수 있으며, 최대 일일 16mg을 초과하지 않도록 하였다. 추체외로 증상을 조절하기 위한 투약을 허용하였다. 임상증상 및 부작용의 평가는 PANSS(Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale), CGI(Clinical Global Impression) 그리고 ESRS(Extrapyramidal Symptom Rating Scale)을 사용하였다. 연구결과 : 377명중 343명(91%)이 8주간의 연구를 완결하였다. 치료 종결시점인 8주후 PANSS 총점수가 20% 이상 호전된 경우를 약물 반응군으로 정의할때, 약물반응군은 81.3%였다. 리스페리돈에 반응하는 예측인자로는 발병연령, 이전의 입원 횟수, 유병기간이 관련 있었다. 리스페리돈은 1주후부터 PANSS양성, 음성, 및 일반정신병리 점수상에 유의한 호전을 보여 효과가 빨랐다. CGI의 경우도 기준점에 비해 1주후부터 유의한 감소를 나타내었다. ESRS의 경우, 파킨슨 평가점수는 기준점과 비교해 투여 1주, 2주, 4주후 유의하게 증가되었다가 8주후 기준점과 차이가 없었다. Dystonia 평가점수는 1주후만 유의한 증가를 보였으며, dyskinesia 평가점수는 유의한 차이가 없었다. 혈압, 맥박수의 생명징후 및 일반 혈액학 검사, 생화학적 검사, 심전도 검사에서 유의한 변화는 없었다. 결 론 : 이상의 다시설 개방 임상 연구를 통해 리스페리돈은 정신분열병 환자에서 양성증상뿐만 아니라 음성증상 및 전반적인 증상에도 효과적인 것으로 사료된다. 보다 명확한 평가를 위해서는 다른 항정신병약물과의 이중맹검 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각되며, 또한 장기적 치료에 대한 평가도 함께 이루어져야 하겠다. Objective : The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of risperidone in the treatment of Korean schizophrenic patients. Method : This multicenter open study included 377 schizophrenic patients drawn from 39 university hospitals. After a wash-out period of 1 week, the schizophrenic patients were treated with risperidone for 8 weeks and evaluated at 5 points ; at baseline, and 1, 2, 4 and 8 weeks of treatment. The dose was increased from 2mg/day(1mg twice daily) to 6mg/day(3mg twice daily) during the first week and adjusted to a maximum of 16mg/day over the next 7 weeks according to the patient's clinical response. Medication to control extrapyramidal symptoms was permitted. The psychiatric and neurological status of the patients was assessed by PANSS, CGI, and ESRS scales. Results : 343(91%) of 377 patients completed the 8-week trial period. Clinical improvement, as defined by a 20% or more reduction in total PANSS score at end point, was shown by 81.3% of patients. The predictors of response to risperidone were associated older age, shorter duration of illness, fewer previous hospitalization. Risperidone had rapid onset of action ; a significant decrease of the total PANSS and three PANSS factor(positive, negative, general), and CGI was already noticed at the end of first week. For the ESRS, parkinsonism rating scores were significantly increased until week 4 comparing with baseline. Dystonia rating scores were significantly increased until week 1, and dyskinesia rating scores were not significantly changed during the study. Laboratory parameters including vital sign, EKG, hematological, and biochemical values showed no significant changes during the trial. Conclusions : This study suggests that risperidone is generally safe and effective against both the positive and negative symptoms in our group of patients.

The purpose of this study was to identify the effect of recreation program applied to the mentally retarded children on their social skill and problem behavior. The subjects of the study were the mentally retarded children who were attending at J middle school for special education in Andong-city, Kyungpook Province and the children were divided into two groups; experimental and comparative groups. Research design was as follows; the input of recreation activities was designated as independent variables, male and female mentally retarded children group was determined as object variables, and social skill and problem behavior was subject variables. After the pre-tests on the scales of the sampling children's social skill and problem behavior were carried out, experimental group was applied to the recreation program and comparative group was taught as a usual time and then the post-tests was performed. t Examination was used to identify the differences according to the results from post-tests and the data were processed by SPSS 10.0(Statistical Package for the Science) statistics program. The results from the above research were as follows; First, the mentally retarded children applied to the recreation program had a positive effect on their social skill. Second, the application of the program also had a positive effect on their problem behavior. From the results of this study, my suggestions were First, the follow-up research should be provided to identify the effect of recreation program on the children being various levels. Second, the range of research should be expanded, so the consistent research on children of kindergarten or after-elementary school should be followed. Third, the succeeding research on the long-term transfer of the program's effect should be continued. Forth, other programs(or strategies) could attribute to the promotion of the mentally children's social skill and the improvement of their problem behavior. Fifth, the research capable of inducing their activities after understanding the students' traits, interest degree on the subjects and so on should be made. Finally, each agencies or schools should develop and apply more systematic recreation program and also try to develop a system which could be classified and applied to recreation fields suitable for the individuals' traits.

Because the facial nerve innervates the muscles of facial expression, injury to this nerve may cause social, psychological, and functional disability. For this reason, a transected facial nerve must be restored appropriately by any one of a variety of approaches. The choice of anastomosis should be based upon the cause, location of transection and the length of time since paralysis was first noted. Although there are numerous methods of anastomosis, none will result in complete recovery. And thus, the method must be carefully selected and tailored to suit each patient. During the 20 months between July 1988 and February 1990. We have been operated (immediate end to were epineurial repair) in 20 patients. 15 of 20 aged 23 to 60. There were 13 males and 2 females. The nerve injury was unilateral in all cases. One of 15 received a nerve graft harvested from the greater auricular nerve. 12 of 15 Stensen's duct injuries were associated with served zygomatic branch and/or buccal branch. So an end to end anastomosis of the duct was performed simultaneously with anastomosis of the nerve. Failure to repair the duct resulted in a salivary fistula in two cases. To show the success of the procedure, EMG(electromyogram) and NCV(nerve conduction velocity) were done at least 6 months following surgery. The findings have been considered good to excellent and the reinnervated muscles have showed symmetric movements in all cases.

일반적으로 구조물은 외부의 정적 및 동적 하중과 외부환경으로 인하여 피로균열과 부식이 발생하며, 이것은 구조물의 변형을 유발하여 결국 파단으로 이어지기 때문에 균열과 부식의 검출 및 평가와 함께 구조물의 변형에 의한 진동, 변위 기울기와 같은 거동을 감시하는 것도 매우 중요하다. 이에 레이저 센서 시스템을 이용하여 이러한 거동을 측정하여 이상 유무를 모니터링할 수 있는 구조물 안전감시 시스템을 개발하였다. 본 시스템은 2차원으로 배열한 광전센서를 이용하여 구조물의 변형에 의해 유발된 광궤적의 변화를 감시하며 또한 데이터를 취득하고 신호처리 할 수 있는 운용 프로그램도 갖추고 있다. 본 연구에서는 개발한 안전 진단 시스템의 필드 적용에 앞서 실험실에서의 몇 가지 실험을 통하여 그 효용성을 검증하였다. A Safety Monitoring System using a laser and 2-D arrayed photo sensors is developed.

Polytetrafluoroethylene의 길이에 따른 신생내피의 조직학적 변화에 대한 실험적 연구

강기훈,이광석 고려대학교 의과대학 1998 고려대 의대 잡지 Vol.35 No.2

One of the most widely used synthetic grafts in vascular surgery is polytetrafluoroethylene(PTFE). PTFE offers major advantages compared with the other synthetic materials because of its highly electronegative and hydrophobic surface. Neoendothelialization of PTFE is still the most controversial issue and seems to prevent its reliable clinical use in microvascular grafting procedures. It is difficult to compare different studies because of variations in the physical characteristics of synthetic grafts and the investigation periods. The purpose of this study was to investigate the patency rates and the histologic findings of neoendothelialization according to the length of implanted PTFE in rabbit. Thirty New Zealand White rabbits, weighing 3.0 to 3.5kg, were used for this study. Under the operating microscope, all grafts were implanted in the right carotid arteries of rabbits by interrupted end-to-end microanastomosis. They were divided into two groups according to the length of implanted PTFE with an internal diameter of 3mm. Each group comprised fifteen rabbits. All implanted grafts were 25㎛ in fibril length and 0.39mm in wall thickness. The length of graft in group Ⅰ was 8mm and that of graft in group Ⅱ was 24mm. Three grafts per group were harvested at 1, 2, 4, 8, and 12 weeks after implantation respectively. All PTFE grafts were observed for patency rates and the histologic findings with light microscope and scanning electron microscope. The results obtained were as follows : 1. The patency rate was 96.7%(29/30) on the average: 93.3%(14/15) in group Ⅰ and 100%(15/15) in group Ⅱ. There was no difference in patency rates according to the length of implanted PTFE. 2. Light microscopically, the beginning of neointimal lining was noted in both groups at 1 week after implantation. At 8 weeks after implantation, the entire inner surface of implanted PTFE was lined completely by neointima in both groups. At 12 weeks after implantation, neointima and subintimal tissue were noted at the midportion of implanted PTFE in group Ⅰ. However, neointima of group Ⅱ in the midportion of implanted PTFE was composed of single layered neoendothelial cells without subintimal tissue. 3. Scanning electron microscopically. the inner surface of implanted PTFE was lined by amorphous fibrin layer at anastomosis site in both groups at 1 week after implantation. At 2 weeks after implantation, flat irregular layer like normal endothelium was noted at anastomosis site in both groups. At 8 weeks after implantation, the entire inner surface of implanted PTFE was lined by neointima in both groups. At 12 weeks after implantation, closely apposed endothelial-like cells were noted in the mid-portion of implanted PTFE in group Ⅰ, the long axis of neoendothelial cells was parallel to the direction of the blood flow, but the inner surface of implanted PTFE was still noted in group Ⅱ. In conclusion, there was no difference in patency rates according to the length of implanted PTFE, and at 1 week after implantation neoendothelium started to grow from both anastomosis sites toward the center of implanted PTFE in both groups; however, the formation of neointima and subintimal tissue was delayed and incomplete in longer implanted PTFE. In the future, further study must be performed to accelerate the neoendothelialization after implantation of PTFE for the clinical use in microvascular surgery.

두경부 악성 종양에 대한 방사선치료는 유용한 방법이다. 하지만 방사선치료의 부작용으로 다양한 구강내 합병증을 동반한다. 이 글에서 치열 발육 단계에 방사선치료를 받은 두 증례를 보고하는 바이다. 첫 번째 증례는 생후 19개월에 급성 골수성 백혈병으로 진단 받아 방사선치료를 받은 7세 여자 환아로 영구치 치배의 선천적 결손과 왜소치 소견을 보였다. 두 번째 증례에서는 생후 13개월에 양측성 망막아세포종으로 진단 받아 방사선치료를 받았고 영구치 치배의 선천적 결손, 왜소치, 치근의 저형성 그리고 법랑질 저형성증 소견을 보였다. Radiotherapy for head and neck tumors is a viable treatment modality. However, a wide range of potentially debilitating dental complications may be accompanied by this treatment. We report two cases of developmental disturbance of permanent tooth germs after radiotherapy. The one was that of a seven-year-old girl, who had congenitally missing teeth, and microdontia of permanent tooth germs. she had received radiotherapy for acute myelocytic leukemia at the age of 19 months. The other was that of a nine-year-old boy, in which congenitally missing teeth, microdontia, root hypoplasia, and enamel hypoplasia of permanent teeth were observed. He had undergone a course of radiotherapy for bilateral retinoblastoma at the age of 13 months.
