Predictors of High-grade Vesicoureteral Reflux in Children with Febrile Urinary Tract Infections
Choi, Eom Ji,Lee, Min Ju,Park, Sin-Ae,Lee, Oh-Kyung Korean Society of Pediatric Nephrology 2017 Childhood kidney diseases Vol.21 No.2
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate clinical and radiological factors that may predict high-grade vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) in patients with febrile urinary tract infection (UTI). Methods: We retrospectively analyzed medical records of 446 patients diagnosed with febrile UTI from March 2008 to February 2017. All patients underwent renal-bladder ultrasonography (RBUS), 99mTc dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) renal scan, and voiding cystourethrography (VCUG), and were divided in to 3 groups: a high-grade VUR group (n=53), a low-grade VUR group (n=28), and a group without VUR (n=365). Results: The recurrence and non-Escherichia coli infection rates in febrile UTI were significantly higher in the high-grade VUR group than in the other two groups (P<0.05). RBUS showed that hydronephrosis and ureter dilatation were more frequent in the high-grade VUR group than in the other groups (P<0.05). In the high-grade VUR group, a renal cortical defect was more likely to appear as multiple defects, and the difference in bilateral renal scan uptake between both kidneys was larger than in the other two groups (P<0.001). Conclusion: Recurrent UTI, non-E. coli UTI, abnormal findings on RBUS such as hydronephrosis and ureter dilatation, and abnormal findings in the DMSA renal scan such as multiple renal cortical defects and greater uptake difference were associated with high-grade VUR. VCUG should be selectively performed when RBUS and/or DMSA renal scan reveal significant abnormalities.

BACKGROUND: Long segmental tracheal repair is challenging in regenerative medicine due to low adhesion of stem cells to tracheal scaffolds. Optimal transplantation of stem cells for tracheal defects has not been established. We evaluated the role of hyaluronic acid (HA) coating of tracheal scaffolds in mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) adhesion and tracheal regeneration in a rabbit model. METHODS: A three-dimensionally printed tubular tracheal prosthesis was incubated with dopa-HA-fluorescein isothiocyanate in phosphate-buffered saline for 2 days. MSCs were incubated with an HA-coated scaffold, and their adhesion was evaluated by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay. HA coated scaffolds with or without MSC seeding were transplanted at the circumferential tracheal defect in rabbits, and survival, rigid bronchoscopy, radiologic findings, and histologic findings were compared between the two groups. RESULTS: HA-coated scaffolds showed better MSC adhesion than non-coated scaffolds. The HA-coated scaffolds with MSC group showed a wider airway and greater mucosal regeneration compared to the HA-coated scaffolds without MSC group. CONCLUSION: HA coating of scaffolds can promote MSC adhesion and tracheal regeneration.

To revise the dithiocarbamates residue analysis method and survey the residues in agricultural products that were treated with these fungicides in Korea, we purchased 20 types of foodstuffs (rice, potato, cabbage, apple etc.) from markets in five major cities. 236 samples of the purchased foodstuffs were then analyzed for the presence of dithiocarbamates by HPLC/UV and HPLC/APCI-MS. The R², LOD and LOQ in the range of 0.5-107.3 mg/L were as follows: DCC: y=174.34x+18.315, R²=0.9999, 0.01 mg/L, and 0.04 mg/L; EBDC: y=227.38x?14.715, R²=1.0000, 0.01mg/L and 0.02 mg/L; PBDC: y=38.46x?21.412, R²=0.9999, 0.04 mg/L, and 0.1 mg/L; ETU: y=52.752x?4.4819, R²=0.9?998, 0.02 mg/L and 0.03 mg/L; PTU: y=128.28x+4.4624, R²=0.9998, 0.02 mg/L, and 0.04 mg/L. The levels of DDC, EBDC, PBDC, ETU and PTU in 20 agricultural products fortified to 10.0-107.3 mg/L ranged from 61.7-117.5%, 65.3-110.1%, 61.5-109.6%, 69.3-116.3% and 70.2-97.2%, respectively. Overall, dithiocarbamates were detected in 100 samples and the detection ratio was 42.4%. Among these, only 3 samples (1.3%) of Lycii fructus had residue levels that were above the action limits, while the remaining samples (233 samples) contained levels of dithiocarbamates below the detection limit or below the Korea MRLs (Maximum Residue Limits).

<P>When crystalline ZnO films with a thickness of 30 nm and hydrophilic properties were deposited at room temperature onto a glass substrate via radio frequency sputtering, they exhibited antifingerprinting qualities following annealing treatment that was simple and accomplished at low temperature (100 degrees C). Hydrophobic properties were achieved using as-deposited ZnO films with hydrophilic properties via annealing treatment without the deposition of a protective layer with hydrophobic properties. The annealed 30 nm ZnO films showed a high transmittance (similar to 91.3%) comparable to that of a glass substrate at a wavelength of 550 nm. The annealed films showed strong antibacterial activity against E. coli and S. aureus bacteria. The ZnO films with a thickness of 30 nm showed predominant mechanical durability with strong antibacterial activity for smart-phone panel applications.</P>

An electro-plating technology on a cured isotropic conductive pattern with a hybrid Cu paste composed of resin matrix, copper, and solder powders has been developed. In a conventional technology, Ag paste was used to perform a conductive pattern on a PCB or silicon substrate. From previous research, the electrical conductive mechanism and principle of the hybrid Cu paste were concisely investigated. The isotropic conductive pattern on the PCB substrate was performed using screen-printing technology. The optimum electro-plating condition was experimentally determined by processing parameters such as the metal content of the hybrid Cu paste, applied current density, and time for the electroplating in the plating bath. The surfaces and cross-sections were observed using optical and SEM photographs. In conclusion, the optimized processing conditions for Cu electro-plating technology on the conductive pattern were a current density of $40mA/cm^2$ and a plating time of 20min on the hybrid Cu paste with a metal content of 44 vol.%. More details of the mechanical properties and processing conditions will be investigated in further research.
Butyltin contamination in industrialized bays associated with intensive marine activities in Korea.
Choi, Minkyu,Moon, Hyo-Bang,Yu, Jun,Eom, Ji-Yeong,Choi, Hee-Gu Springer-Verlag 2009 Archives of environmental contamination and toxico Vol.57 No.1
<P>Marine sediments and gastropod, Thais clavigera, were collected from industrialized areas and major harbors in Korea, to assess contamination sources and ecological risk to marine organisms by butyltin compounds such as tributyltin (TBT). TBT concentrations in sediments ranged from <LOD to 5372 ng Sn/g dry weight, and were comparable to or higher than concentrations in big harbors of other countries. The highest TBT concentrations were found in sediments close to shipyards in surveyed bays, suggesting that shipyard activities are a major contamination source of butyltins in Korean coastal waters. About half of the sediments showed potential risk of exceeding the guidelines and values proposed in in vivo studies. The occurrence of imposex in T. clavigera was 100% at all locations, indicating that the present levels of TBT contamination in industrialized bays in Korea are at concentrations reported to induce toxic effects on marine organisms, despite TBT's having been legally banned in Korea.</P>

A Gram-stain-positive, obligately anaerobic, non-motile, nonspore- forming, and rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated KGMB01110T, was isolated from a faecal sample of a healthy male in South Korea. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene showed that strain KGMB01110T belonged to Clostridium cluster XIVa and was most closely related to Mediterraneibacter glycyrrhizinilyticus KCTC 5760T (95.9% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity). The DNA G + C content of strain KGMB01110T based on its whole genome sequence was 44.1 mol%. The major cellular fatty acids (> 10%) of the isolate were C14:0 and C16:0. The strain KGMB01110T was positive for arginine dihydrolase, β-galactosidase-6-phosphatase, and alkaline phosphatase. The strain KGMB01110T also produced acid from D-glucose and D-rhamnose, and hydrolyzed gelatin and aesculin. Furthermore, HPLC analysis and UV-tests of culture supernatant revealed that the strain KGMB01110T produced butyrate as the major end product of glucose fermentation. Based on the phylogenetic and phenotypic characteristics, strain KGMB01110T represent a novel species of the genus Mediterraneibacter in the family Lachnospiraceae. The type strain is KGMB01110T (= KCTC 15684T = CCUG 72830T).
