Objective : We assessed the surgical results of bipolar release in 31 adult patients with uncorrected congenital muscular torticollis (CMT) and more than 12 months of follow-up. Methods : Thirty-one patients underwent a bipolar release of the sternocleidomastoid muscle (SCM) and were retrospectively analyzed. The mean follow-up period was 14.9 months (range, 12-30). The mean age at time of surgery was 30.3 years (range, 20-54). Patients were evaluated with a modified Lee's scoring system, cervicomandibular angle (CMA) measurement, and a global satisfaction rating scale using patient self-reporting. Results : The modified Lee's scoring system indicated excellent results in 4 (12.9%) patients, good in 18 (58.1%), and fair in 9 (29.0%) at the last follow-up after surgery. The improvements in neck movement and head tilt were statistically significant (p<0.05). The preoperative mean CMA was $15.4^{\circ}$ (range, 5.4-29.0), which was reduced to a mean of CMA of $6.3^{\circ}$ (range, 0-25) after surgery (p<0.05). The global satisfaction rating scale was 93.7% (range, 90-100). A transient sensory deficit on the ipsilateral lower ear lobe was noted in three cases. No significant permanent complications occurred. Conclusion : Bipolar release of the SCM is a safe and reliable technique for the treatment of CMT in adults.

Background : Arterial blood gas analysis is the most comon exam in intensive care unit. In this study, the frequency of blood gas analysis and the amount of blood loss after Blood Gas Analysis in Intensive Care Unit were observed. Methods : From November 1999 to February 2000, 115 patients admitted to intensive care unit at Soonchunhyang university Kumi hospital were studied prospectively for the frequency of blood gas analysis and the amount of blood loss after blood gas analysis in Intensive Care Unit. Results : The mean value of frequency of blood gas analysis was 6.41±6.49 and the mean value of amount of blood loss after blood gas analysis was 0.78ml. This was lower than that of other foreign reports. The patients with ventilator therapy above 24 hours showed higher frequency of blood gas analysis than that of not applied ventilator patients. Pulse oxymetry was applied to all patients and the frequency of blood gas analysis was decreased due to the use of strict pulse oxymetry. Conclusion : Doctors and nurses in intensive care unit keep in mind that adequate blood sampling is needed for the decrease of blood loss. Education and protocol for the decrease of blood loss after arterial blood gas analysis may be necessary.

Lee, Jeong-Suk. 1999. A Study of the Relationship between Syntactic Complexity and Readability. Linguistics, 7-1, 361-378. Primarily this paper aims at describing how the rules of English language produce complex syntax and finding out what kinds of rules make English reading difficult. To study the relationships between syntactic complexity readability, this study is based upon the following two hypotheses: (1) How much is the understanding ability of syntax which has a strong influence reading comprehension? (2) What operations of grammar transformation make readability low or high? The testing methods are understanding ability test, memory test, and paper test. These readability research, even if there are imperfections, makes us realize in part the students' reading ability in syntactic complexity and their problems in grammar transformation.

이지숙(Lee, Ji-suk),김정렬(Kim, Jeong-ryeol) 학습자중심교과교육학회 2021 학습자중심교과교육연구 Vol.21 No.7

본 연구의 목적은 국내에서 수행되어 온 초등 내용중심 통합 영어교수 연구 논문들의 시기별 동향 및 교수의 효과성을 살피는데 있다. 이를 위해 1991년부터 2020년 9월까지 출판이 이루어진 초등영어교육 관련 논문을 데이터베이스 검색을 통해 수집하였다. 연구 적격성 기준을 통해 141편을 최종 선별하였으며 이를 시기별로 연구의 양적변화, 연구방법, 통합 유형 등으로 나누어 연구의 동향을 분석하고자 하였다. 연구 결과, 연구의 양적 변화 면에서는 정부의 몰입교육 시행 발표 이후 연구의 수가 급격하게 증가하였으나, 몰입교육 시행이 무효화되면서 관련 연구수가 다시 감소하여 현재까지 그 영향이 이어지고 있었다. 연구의 대상학년의 경우 연구 대상이 5, 6학년에 많이 치중되어 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 연구의 방법은 실험연구의 비율이 꾸준히 높게 유지되는 가운데 최근에 들어서는 문헌연구의 비율이 감소하고 분석연구가 많이 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 통합의 방법 측면에서는 몰입 관련 연구가 가장 많이 발표되었고, 그 다음으로 교과통합, 이야기통합, 주제통합 순이었으며, 마지막으로, 통합 대상교과의 경우 과학교과를 대상으로 통합을 실시한 연구가 가장 많은 가운데, 과학, 수학, 사회 교과와의 통합으로 연구들이 많이 편중된 것으로 나타났다. This study is to synthesize researches on content-language integrated elementary English instruction in Korea. All studies related to content-language integrated elementary English instruction published until September 2020 were collected via the electronic means. As a result, 141 articles were selected according to the eligibility criteria. They were analyzed by being divided into three phases based on a ten-year cycle(first phase: 1991~2000, second phase: 2001~2010, third phase: 2011~2020.09). Firstly, the quantitative changes of articles, method, participants, types of integration by curricula period were examined. Based on the analysis, studies were conducted intermittently during first phase. In the second phase, after Lee Myung-bak administration announcing the implementation of immersion education, the number of published articles increased rapidly. However, with the retraction of the plan proposed by Lee’s administration, the number of the research started to decrease and continued to decrease in the third phrase. Concerning participants, there were more studies on fifth and sixth graders than studies on the lower graders. In terms of research method, experimental studies were conducted the most among surveyed studies of experimental, survey, developmental, observational, analytical, case studies, and literature studies. Another trend discovery is while the number of literature studies have decreased, analytical studies have increased recently. In terms of the integration method, the immersion studies outnumbered other method. In regards to the subject, researchers preferred science the most and a lot of researches were concentrated in science, math and social studies.

Background: To examine the influencing factors on patients' satisfaction in the emergency department(ED) for quality assurance. Methods: Patients who visited to the ED were prospectively investigated from November 1 to December 31, 1997. Authors developed questionnaire to investigate influencing factors on patients' satisfaction. A Chi-square test and LISREL 7.0 were applied for statistical analysis. Results: Patients' satisfaction was significantly related to physical environment variables, accessibility variables, kindness of hospital personnel variables, and patient's trust for doctors variables. In path analysis, willingness for revisit was influenced by patients' satisfation, accessibility, physical environment, patients' trust for doctors in order, and willingness for recommendation was influenced by accessibility, patients' satisfaction, and kindness of hospital personnel in order. Conclusions: The influencing factors on patients' satisfaction are physical environment, accessibility, kindness of hospital personnel, and patient's trust for doctors. Willingness for revisit and willingness for recommendation are influenced by patients' satisfation. In spite of some limitations, the results of this study can be used as a baseline information for exploring the influencing factors on patients' satisfaction. Further comprehensive research efforts should be made on the study of patients' satisfactoin in the ED.

To identify the effects of partial sleep deprivation on the sleep structure, the authors performed polysomnographic study for 9 healthy young adults. The subjects were college students, ranging in age from 20 to 25 years, without personal past or present histories of medical, neurological, or psychiatric illness and suffering from current sleep disturbance or parasomomnias. Sleep records were analyzed according to the criteria of Rechtschaffen and Kales' manual and tried paired t-test. The results were summarized as follows. 1. As for sleep parameters, total sleep time(TST), REM latency and REM duration were not changed significantly during deprivation period and recovery period compared with baseline. Sleep efficiency increased significantly during deprivation period and recovery period compaired with baseline, and sleep latency and WASO were shortened significantly during deprivation period and recovery period compared with baseline. 2. As for sleep structure, 1) The absolute value(minutes) of stage 1 decreased significantly during deprivation period and first recovery night compared with baseline, and the relative value(percentage) of stage 1 decreased significantly during deprivation period and recovery period compared with baseline. 2) The absolute value(minutes) of stage 2 decreased significantly during deprivation period compared with baseline, and the relative value(percentage) of stage 2 decreased significantly during deprivation period and first recovery night compared with baseline. 3) The absolute value(minutes) of slow wave sleep were not changed significantly during deprivation period and recovery period compared with baseline, and the relative value(percentage) of slow wave sleep increased significantly during recovery period compared with baseline. 4) The absolute value(minutes) of REM sleep decreased significantly during deprivation period compared with baseline, and the relative value(percentage) of REM sleep decreased significantly in the first deprivation night but, were not changed significantly during recovery period compared with baseline.

김병수,서재홍,최철원,김열홍,김준석,김정아,손상균,김재석,이경희,이제중,정익주,곽재용,안진석,이정애,박영석 대한조혈모세포이식학회 1999 대한조혈모세포이식학회지 Vol.4 No.1

연구배경: 조혈모세포이식후 신체 및 정신적 장애의 정도가 얼마나 환자의 '삶의 질(QOL)'에 영향을 미치는지에 대하여 외국에서는 연구들이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그러나 우리나라에서는 조혈모세포이식이 비교적 활발히 시술되고 있음에도 불구하고 이에 대한 연구가 미미한 실정이었다. 연구자 등은 우리 나라에서 조혈모세포이식을 받은 환자들의 QOL은 어떤지를 알아보고자 하는 목적으로 본 연구를 시행하였다. 방법: 본 연구에 참여한 각 기관에서 조혈모세포이식을 받고 주된 치료가 끝난 후 1999년 2월 시점에서 최소 3개월이 지나고 관해상태에서 일상생활을 영위하고 있는 재생불량성 빈혈과 급성 및 만성 백혈병 환자들을 각각 자가 및 동종 조혈모세포이식을 시행받은 조혈모세포이식군(1군)과 항림프구 글로불린, 공고요법 등으로 치료를 끝낸 화학요법군(2군)으로 분류하고 연구자 병원에 내원한 건강한 환자 보호자들로 이루어진 정상대조군(3군)을 선정하여 각각의 QOL을 비교, 분석하였다. QOL의 측정은 EORTC QLQ-C30 문항을 우리나라의 실정에 맞게 번역하여 사용하였다. 결과: 조혈모세포이식군(1군)은 53명, 화학요법군(2군)은 57명, 정상대조군(3군)은 55명 이었고, 성별, 나이, 질환별 분포, 검사시점 등에서의 유의한 차이는 없었다. 각 군간의 QLQ-C30 평균 점수를 비교한 결과, 전반적인 삶의 질에서는 1군이 73.5, 2군이 51.7, 3군이 79.3으로 2군이 1.3군보다 낮았고 역할 및 사회기능은 각각 1군이 64.3/68.9, 2군이 57.6/70.3, 3군이 85.2/85.5로 1,2군이 3군에 비하여 낮았다.(P<0.01). 또한, 오심/구토가 1군은 8.7, 2군은 4.5, 3군은 3.2로 1군이 2, 3군보다 높았으며 통증은 1군은 17.0, 2군은 19.2, 3군은 9.6으로 1,2군이 3군에 비하여 높았다(p〈0.01). 기타 신체, 감정, 인식기능 및 피로에서는 각군간에 유의한 차이를 발견할 수 없었다. 결론: 본 연구에 참여한 조혈모세포이식환자들의 전반적인 삶의 질은 화학요법을 받은 환자들보다 우월하면서 정상인들과 유사하였으나 역할기능 및 사회기증, 통증에서는 화학요법 환자들처럼 정상인들에 비하여 열악하였고 오심/구토는 화학요법 환자들 및 정상인에 비하여 심한 양상을 보였다. 그러므로 본 연구를 바탕으로 하여 국내 실정에 맞는 QOL 측정 방법을 개발하고 조혈모세포이식을 시행받는 환자들의 삶의 질에 관한 연구들이 향후 계속 진행되어야 하리라고 생각된다. Background: It is very important to endow patient with satisactory quality of life (QOL). However, little is known about QOL after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in Korea. In this study we tried to measure QOL in the patients treated with HSCT and compare QOL scores with those of patients treated with usual chemotherapy and normal populations. Methods: The QOL evaluation was performed with EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaires interpreted to Korean language. The study populations were consisted with 53 patients treated with HSCT (Group 1), 55 patients treated with usual chemotherapy (Group 2), and 55 normal populations (Group 3). The QLQ-30 scores of each group were evaluated and compaired with x² test. Results: Global quality of in group 1, 3 (score: 73.5, 79.3, respectively) were higher than that (score: 51.7) of group 2. Role and social function were lower in group 1, 2 (score: 64.3/68.9, 57.6/70.3, respectively) than those (score: 85.2/85.5) of group 3. The degree of nausea and vomiting was more severe in group 1 (score: 8.7) than those of group 2, 3 (score: 4.5, 3.2 respectively). Pain scores of group 1, 2 (score: 17.0, 19.2, respectively) were more higher than that of group 3 (score: 9.6) In other parameters of QLQ-C30, there was no significant difference between each groups. Conclusion: Our perliminary result may suggest that HSCT is not necessarily associated with deterioration of QOL. This underlines the necessity of undertaking perospective studies using reliable and well-validate methods for measuring QOL

정필두,김은정,엄민식,서정원,윤석중,김종석,이상철,김원재 충북대학교 의학연구소 2001 忠北醫大學術誌 Vol.11 No.2

연구목적: TNF-α는 일부 종양의 종양화 과정과 관련이 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구는 TNF-α 발현에 영향을 미치는 TNF-α 촉진자 -308 부위의 유전적 다형성이 방광암과 관련이 있는지 유무를 알고자 시행하였다. 대상 및 방법: 유전자 분석을 위하여 환자 113명 및 대조군 109명으로부터 혈액을 채취하여 genomic DNA를 분리한 후 PCR-RFLP 및 direct DNA sequencing을 통하여 TNF-α유전자의 다형성을 조사하여 방광암의 발생, 병기 및 분화도와 비교 검토하였다. 결과: TNF-α 촉진자 -308 부위의 유전형은 대조군에서는 GG형이 83.5%(90례 및 GA형이 16.5%(19례)로 관찰되었으며 AA형은 없었다. 환자군에서는 GG 형이 85.4%(97례), GA형 및 AA형은 각각 13.1%(15례)및 0.8%(1례)에서 관찰되었다. 두 군 모두에서 GG형이 가장 많이 나타났으며 다음으로 GA형을 보이고 AA형은 1례의 방광암 환자에서만 관찰되었다. -308부위의 경우도 두 군 사이에 유전자형의 차이는 없었다(p=0.259) 분화도별 분포를 보면 grade I이 20례, grade II가 49례, grade Ⅲ은 34례였고 병기별로 표재성인 경우가 90례였으며 침윤성은 14례였다. 분화도가 나빠질수록 GA형이 증가하였다(p=0.04). 그러나 병기와 TNF-α promoter -308부위의 유전자형 사이에는 유의한 상관 관계가 없었다(p=0.123). 결론: 방광암 환자의 혈액에서 GA genotype이 관찰되는 경우, 분화도가 나쁠 가능성이 매우 높기 때문에 좀 더 적극적인 치료와 세밀한 추적관찰을 함으로써 방광암으로 인한 사망과 암의 진행을 예방할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다. Purpose : Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) is involved in tumorigenesis of several cancers as an endogenous tumor promoter. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether genetic polymorphism of TNF-α promoter region (-308) was associated with human bladder tumor. Materials and Methods: The DNA from 113 and 109 respective blood samples of bladder tumor Patients and control group was analyzed by PCR-based restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and direct DNA sequencing methods to characterize the genetic polymorphism of -308 promoter region of the TNF-α gene in bladder tumor patients. We compared the association of bladder tumor with genetic Polymorphism of TNF-α promoter region(-308) in relation to the stage, grade, recurrence and progressio. Results : Eighty-six percents(97/113) of bladder tumor patients and 83.5% (90/109) of control group showed genotype GG at -308 region of TNF-α. Difference in genetic variations of TNF-α promoter (-308) did not exist between bladder tumor patients and control group(p=0.259). Tumor grade was significantly related to the GA genotype (p=0.04). The higher is the grade in bladder tumor, the more frequent was the GA genotype. Tumor stage, recurrence and progression were not significantly associated with genetic polymorphism of TNF-α promoter region (-308). Conclusion: The GA genotype of TNF-a promoter region (-308) had a significant impact on TNF-α production and was related to higher grade tumor compared to GG genotype. TNF-α serum levels in bladder tumor patients were significantly higher than controls. These data suggested that TNF-α might involve the tumorigenesis of the bladder rather than treatment or prevention of bladder tumor.

이정헌,김종근,정병천,서강석,박정배,조용근,류재근,전재은,채성철,박의현 大韓應急醫學會 1999 대한응급의학회지 Vol.10 No.2

Background: Exact and early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is essential for the subsequent routine management of this frequent cardiovascular disease. Currently, AMI has been diagnosed using the combination of the history, electrocardiogram(ECG), and biochemical markers of myocardial necrosis. At present, many biochemical markers are used to diagnose AMI. In this study, the predictive values of serum myoglobin and creatine kinase-MB(CK-MB) were compared in the emergency department. Methods: Fifty-four consecutive patients who presented within 12 hours from onset of chest pain of presumed cardiac origin were enrolled into the study. Patients with trauma or renal failure were excluded. The serial serum myoglobin and CK-MB levels were obtained prospectively at admission and 2, 4, 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours after admission. We compare the levels of serum myoglobin and CK-MB within 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24, and 48 hours after symptom onset respectively. And we compare the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of myoglobin and CK-MB. Results: using World Health Organization criteria, 28 AMI patients were identified. Mean time from symptom onset to presentation was 4.1±1.3 hours. The predictive values of serum myoglobin were better than those of CK-MB within 6 hours after symptom onset. But, 6 hours after symptom onset, the predictive values of CK-MB were better than those of serum myoglobin. The false positive cases of serum myoglobin were 3-one was lung cancer with pleural effusion and the others were unstable angina. The false positive cases of CK-MB were 6-one case was viral myocarditis and the ohters were unstable angina. Conclusion: To compare the serum myoglobin and CK-MB in the diagnosis of AMI, serum myoglobin had better predictive values than CK-MB within 6 hours after symptom onset and useful in the early diagnosis of AMI. But, 6 hours after symptom onset, CK-MB had better predictive values than serum myoglobin and useful in following up.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of occlusion on the mechanical strength of periodontal fibers during retention periods after experimental tooth movement. In the Sprague-Dawley male rats weighing 200 g or more. The intraoral elastics was inserted into the interproximal space of upper the first and second molars. After 4th day of teeth movement, the left mandibular first, second, and third molars were extracted for differentiating the occlusal side from the non-occlusal side in the experimental groups. The intraoral elastics was removed and then light cured resin was placed in the interproximal space between the bilateral upper first and second molars following undercut was made for retention. From the day beginning retention, 7 rats were sacrified at 0, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 days respectively. For evaluating of degree on the mechanical strength of periodontal tissue, maximal shear load of the bilateral upper first molars were measured by use of Instron Universal Testing Machine. The results of this study were obtained as follows: 1. In the occlusal side from no retention group to 4-day, 8-day, 12-day, 16-day, and retention 20-day group as time was going maximal shear load was increased and there was statistically difference from retention 12-day group(p<0.05). 2. In the non-occlusal side from no retention group to 4-day, 8-day, 12-day, 16-day, and retention 20-day group as time was going maximal shear load was increased slightly but there was no statistically difference(p>0.05). 3. The result compared with maximal shear load between occlusal and non-occlusal side showed no statistically difference until retention 8-daygroup(p>0.05), and showed statistically difference from retention 12-day to 20-day group(p<0.05). These results show that the occlusion had an effect on mechanical strength of the periodontal fibers during retention periods after experimental tooth movement; therefore, it is suggested that consideration of occlusion is required for the type and length of retention at the time of retention planning.
