To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the measurement of free thyroxine(FT4) by radioimmunoassay, we measured free T4 and T4, T3, T3RU, TSH and TBG serum levels by radioimmunoassay in 18 healthy persons and 52 patients with various thyroid diseases and 11 normal pregnant women. The results are as follows. 1) In 19 cases of overt hyperthyroidism, T3, free T4 and FTI, T4/TBG ratio reflect hyperfunction in all cases. T4 is increased in 94%(18/19) and TBG and TSH are decreased in 79%(15/19). 2) In 8 patients with overt hypothyroidism, TSH is increased in all cases and free T4 and FTI is decreased in all cases. T4 is decreased in 87.5%(7/8), T3 is decreased in 75%(6/8) and T4/TBG ratio is decreased in 62.5%(5/8). 3) In 5 patients who are clinically in euthyroid state after treatment of hyperthyroidism, T4 free T4, FTI and TSH are in the normal range in all cases and T3 is normal in 60%(3/5) and slightly increased in 40%(2/5). 4) In 10 patients who showed clinically borderline hypothyroidism after treatment of hyperthyroidism, TSH is increased in all cases and free T4 and FTI are decreased in all cases, but T4 and T3, T4/TBG ratio are in the normal limit in all cases. So after treatment of hyperthyroidism, TSH, free T4 or FTI are recommended as optimal function test. 5) In normal pregnancy, free T4, FTI and T4/TBG ratio reflect normal function, but the other parameters unreliable due to the influence of increased TBG. Also TBG and TSH level in pregnancy is increased significantly compared with normal healthy control group. 6) The coefficients of correlation between T4 and FTI were 0.862(p〈0.001) and 0.685(p〈0.001) between free T4 and T4/TBG ratio. In most patients, diagnostic value of free T4 was comparable and even superior to FTI, so free T4 measurement can be used routinely with thyrotropin assay in the diagnosis of hypothyrodism or with T3 for the diagnosis of hyperthyroidism.

This study was conducted to assess the effects of organic and inorganic copper on performance in growing pigs. A total of 100 pigs, average age 63 d and initial body weight 21.46${\pm}$1.13 kg, were assigned to five treatment groups. Dietary treatments included i) CON (basal diet, 0 ppm Cu), ii) T1 (basal diet with 67 ppm Cu as cupric sulfate, $CuSO_4$), iii) T2 (basal diet with 134 ppm Cu as $CuSO_4$), iv) T3 (basal diet with 67 ppm Cu as cupric methionate, CuMet) and v) T4 (basal diet with 134 ppm Cu as CuMet). Throughout the entire experimental period, ADG (average daily gain), ADFI (average daily feed intake) and G/F (gain: feed) ratios showed no significant differences. The dry matter digestibility was improved in the T1, T2, T3, and T4 treatments (p<0.05), as compared with CON. Nitrogen digestibility was improved in the T3 treatment group as compared with CON (p<0.05). As compared with the T1 treatment group, fecal pH values were improved in the CON, T3, and T4 treatment groups (p<0.05). Fecal Cu concentrations were significantly lower in the CON, T3, and T4 treatment groups than in T1 and T2 (p<0.05). The incidence of diarrhea was reduced when the pigs were fed on the T2, T3, and T4 diets as compared with CON. In conclusion, diets supplemented with 67 or 134 ppm Cu as CuMet may prove effective in improving nutrient digestibility and fecal pH value in growing pigs, and fecal Cu concentrations may be reduced by CuMet supplementation.

This study was conducted to investigate the physico-chemical characteristics of various bone extracts in Hanwoo cattle. The experimental materials are as follows; T1(Shank bone extract), T2(Tail extract), T3(Beef feet extract), and T4(The other bones extract). In the proximate composition, the T1 and T2 showed higher moisture and fat contents than those of T3 and T4(p<0.05), and the T3 had the highest protein content among the bone extracts(p<0.05). The quality properties including salinity, sugar content, turbidity and yellowness(b*) values were significantly higher in the T3 than the other bone extracts(p<0.05). However, the pH value of T3 was significantly lower than the other bone extracts. In the mineral contents, calcium contents of bone extracts were 36.33-48.57mg/kg, and the content of phosphorus was the lowest in T1(4.62mg/kg) and T2(19.88mg/kg) was the highest(p<0.05). Contents of sodium and potassium were the highest in T3(215.83mg/kg) and T2(54.59mg/kg), while the content of magnesium was the lowest in T3(12.28mg/kg). In conclusion, these results could be suggested to be the basis information for processed meat extract products industry in korea using Hanwoo bone extract.

김원배,정재훈,윤보현,이석인,김민선,오태근,조보연,이홍규,고창순 대한내분비학회 1994 Endocrinology and metabolism Vol.9 No.3

It is well known that normal pregnancy is accompanied by a rise in serum concentrations of thyroxine-binding globulin(TBG) and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). Alterations of biochemical parameters of thyroid function are recognized during gestation and sensitive tests to evaluate the alterations easily are required. Therefore, a cross-sectional study was undertaken in 140 healthy pregnant women to evaluate the efficacy of free T_4 measured by 2-step RIA compared to other thyroid function tests and to confirm the changes of thyroid function according to the stages of normal pregnancy. The sensitivities of free T_4 index, free T_4(by 2-step RIA), T_3 and TSH were realtively high(99.3%, 93.6%, 92.9%, 83.6%, respectively) compared to those of T_4 and T_3 bead upgake(49.3%, 21.4%) during all stages of pregnancy. There were positive correlations between free T_4 index and free T_4 or total T_4(r=0.68, r=0.72; p$lt;0.001). The values of free T_4 index sharply decreased from 3.22+-0.10(meam +-SEM) during 6th-12th week to an plateau after 16th-20th week of gestation(p$lt;0.01). The serum concentrations free T_4 and T_3 bead uptake also significantly decreased from 1.65+-0.05 ng/dl, 24.7+- 0.7% during 6th-12th week to an plateau after 16th-20th week of gestation, respectively(p$lt;0.001), No differences were found in the changes of serum concentrations of T_3, T_4 and TSH according to the stages of pregnancy. In conclusion, it is adequate to measure some tests including free T_4 index and free T_4 to evaluate thyroid function during pregnancy. The thyroid physiology and changes of thyroid function according to the stages of pregnancy should be considered in the interpretation of thyroid function status during pregnancy(J Kor Soc Endocrinol 9: 183-189, 1994).

Lee, G. H.,Choi, Y. M.,Kim, S. H.,Hong, M. A.,Oh, S. T.,Lim, Y. T.,Moon, S. Y. Oxford University Press 2008 Human reproduction Vol.23 No.4

<P>BACKGROUND: This study was performed to investigate whether specific haplotypes and several single nucleotide polymorphisms in the promoter region of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha gene are associated with the risk of advanced stage endometriosis in a Korean population. METHODS: This study comprised women with (n = 246) or without (n = 248) endometriosis. The TNF:g.[-1031T > C], TNF:g.[-863C > A] and TNF:g.[-857C > T] polymorphism in the TNF-alpha gene were assessed by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis, which utilized digestion by BbsI, HypCH4IV and HypCH4IV restriction enzymes, respectively. In silico haplotypes were deduced by using the Haploview version 3.32. RESULTS: The genotype distribution of TNF:g.[-1031T > C] was significantly different between total endometriosis patients and the controls (T/T of 56.9 versus 60.1%, T/C of 35.4 versus 37.5% and C/C of 7.7 versus 2.4%, respectively, P = 0.027). This difference at the TNF:g.[-1031T > C] tends to increase in Stage IV endometriosis (P = 0.01). However, there was no difference in the TNF:g.[-863C > A] and TNF:g.[-857C > T] site between the two groups. Even when the endometriosis cases were subdivided into American Society for Reproductive Medicine Stages III and IV, genotype differences were not found. The CC homozygote at TNF:g.-863 was more frequently found in the controls than Non-CC group (P = 0.04; odds ratio = 0.67; 95% confidence interval = 0.45-0.98). All haplotypes and diplotypes, deduced by in silico analysis, showed no association with subgroups or controls. CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that the genotype frequencies at the TNF:g.[-1031T > C] and the TNF:g.[-863C > A] sites may be associated with advanced stage endometriosis in the Korean population.</P>

In a trial involving 240pigs, the proximate composition, physico-chemical properites, color, amino acid composition and fatty acid composition of loin muscle were investigated in feeding various finished pig fees. The treatments included feeding control) the low-nutrient density diet(2,960㎈/㎏ ME, 12.25% CP, 0.41% lysine and 0.70% Ca), T1) the medium-nutrient density diet(3,220㎈/㎏ ME, 15.50% CP, 0.87% lysine and 0.90% Ca) and T2) the hight-nutrient density diet(3,350㎈/㎏ ME, 17.50% CP, 1.05% lysine and 0.90% Ca). The crude ash contents of T1 were significantly(p<0.05) higher than those of control and T2. The ?_(u) of T2 were significantly higher than those of control and T1, but cooking loss were significantly(p<0.05) lower than those of control. In compositions amino acid, aspartic acid, threonine, iso-leucine and histidine of T2 were higher than those of control, but proline and glycine were significantly(p<0.05) lower then those of control. The oleic acid(18:1) contents of control were significantly higher than those of T1 and T2, but the contents of linoleic acid(C18:2) and arachidonic(C20:4) acid were significantly(p<0.05) lower. Inconclusion, the results of the experiments suggest that the high-nutrient density diet for pigs tended to improve the postmortem ?_(u) and cooking loss.

Prediction of pathologic staging with magnetic resonance imaging after preoperative chemoradiotherapy in rectal cancer: Pooled analysis of KROG 10-01 and 11-02

Lee, J.H.,Jang, H.S.,Kim, J.G.,Lee, M.A.,Kim, D.Y.,Kim, T.H.,Oh, J.H.,Park, S.C.,Kim, S.Y.,Baek, J.Y.,Park, H.C.,Kim, H.C.,Nam, T.K.,Chie, E.K.,Jung, J.H.,Oh, S.T. Elsevier Science Publishers 2014 Radiotherapy and oncology Vol.113 No.1

Background and purpose: The reported overall accuracy of MRI in predicting the pathologic stage of nonirradiated rectal cancer is high. However, the role of MRI in restaging rectal tumors after neoadjuvant CRT is contentious. Thus, we evaluate the accuracy of restaging magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for rectal cancer patients who receive preoperative chemoradiotherapy (CRT). Methods and materials: We analyzed 150 patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (T3-4N0-2) who had received preoperative CRT. Pre-CRT MRI was performed for local tumor and nodal staging. All patients underwent restaging MRI followed by total mesorectal excision after the end of radiotherapy. The primary endpoint of the present study was to estimate the accuracy of post-CRT MRI as compared with pathologic staging. Results: Pathologic T classification matched the post-CRT MRI findings in 97 (64.7%) of 150 patients. 36 (24.0%) of 150 patients were overstaged in T classification, and the concordance degree was moderate (k=0.33, p<0.01). Pathologic N classification matched the post-CRI MRI findings in 85 (56.6%) of 150 patients. 54 (36.0%) of 150 patients were overstaged in N classification. 26 patients achieved downstaging (ycT0-2N0) on restaging MRI after CRT. 23 (88.5%) of 26 patients who had been downstaged on MRI after CRT were confirmed on the pathological staging, and the concordance degree was good (k=0.72, p<0.01). Conclusions: Restaging MRI has low accuracy for the prediction of the pathologic T and N classifications in rectal cancer patients who received preoperative CRT. The diagnostic accuracy of restaging MRI is relatively high in rectal cancer patients who achieved clinical downstaging after CRT.
