Objective: To investigate skeletal and dental changes after application of a mandibular setback surgery-first orthodontic treatment approach in cases of skeletal Class III malocclusion. Methods: A retrospective study of 34 patients (23 men, 11 women; mean age, 26.2 ± 6.6 years) with skeletal Class III deformities, who underwent surgery-first orthodontic treatment, was conducted. Skeletal landmarks in the maxilla and mandible at three time points, pre-treatment (T0), immediate-postoperative (T1), and post-treatment (T2), were analyzed using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT)-generated half-cephalograms. Results: The significant T0 to T1 mandibular changes occurred ?9.24 ± 3.97 mm horizontally. From T1 to T2, the mandible tended to move forward 1.22 ± 2.02 mm, while the condylar position (Cd to Po-perpendicular plane) shifted backward, and the coronoid process (Cp to FH plane) moved vertically. Between T1 and T2, the vertical dimension changed significantly (p < 0.05). Changes in the vertical dimension were significantly correlated to T1 to T2 changes in the Cd to Po-perpendicular plane (r = ?0.671, p = 0.034), and in the Cp to FH plane (r = 0.733, p = 0.016), as well as to T0 to T1 changes in the Cp to Poperpendicular plane (r = 0.758, p = 0.011). Conclusions: Greater alterations in the vertical dimension caused larger post-treatment (T2) stage skeletal changes. Studying the mandibular position in relation to the post-surgical vertical dimension emphasized the integral importance of vertical dimension control and proximal segment management to the success of surgery-first orthodontic treatment.

Preventive and Antioxidative Effects of Crude Drug Preparation(E-kong-san) on Cisplatin Induced Nephrotoxicity. Proceedings of International Symposium on East-West Medicine, Seoul. 201-211, 1999. -Nephroprotective effects of a crude drug-prearation (E-kong-san) were determined from cisplatin on rabbit kidney proximal tubule and human renal cortical cells by MTT assays and sustained glucose consumption on ciplatin-induced human renal cortical tissue. Levels of creatinine and blood ure nitrogen(BUN) in serum after administration of cisplatin(0.75mg/kg,i.p.) to E-kong-san(0.75g/kg/day,p.o.)-pretreated rats were markedly lower compared to those of cisplatin-treated rats. Moreover, the administration of E-kong-san significantly inhibited the loss of body weight of cisplatin injected rts. These findings suggest that E-kong-san on the cisplatin induced nephrotoxicity led us to investigate whether the effect of this water extract was a result of anti-oxidation. E-kong-san showed strong free radical scavenger activities on 1,1-dipheny1-2picrylhydrazil(DPPH) radical and xanthine/xanthine oxidase(XOD) generated superoxide anion radical(O2-). We further studied the effects of E-kong-san on lipid peroxidation in rat liver microsomes induced by enzymatic and nonenzymatic methods. E-kong-san exhibited significant inhibition on both ascorbic acid/Fe2+and ADP/NADPH/Fe3+ induced lipid peroxidation in rat liver microsomes. Based on these results, we suggest that-E-kong-san attenuate the cisplatin induced cytotoxicity and its mechanism can be eplained by antioxidant.

The purpose of this study is to assess the adherence to dietary intervention for prevention of coronary heart disease (CHD) in postmenopausal women by observing changes of antioxidant vitamins and fatty acid composition in dietary intake and seam level. The subjects with hypercholesterolemia (TC≥240mg/dl) were treated with one of hormone replacement therapy (HRT group), dietary intervention (DIET group) or combination of hormone replacement therapy and dietary intervention (HRT+DIET group) for 12 weeks. The results were as followed. Mean daily nutrient intakes were not significantly changed in the HRT group, but were significantly changed in the DIET group and the HRT+DIET group. Especially, dietary vitamin A and E intakes were increased from less than 75% to more than 90% of RDA for Korean in the two groups. With changes of dietary intakes, serum vitamin A and E levels were also significantly increased in the DIET group and tended to increase in the HRT+DIET group. Dietary fatty acid composition was also not significantly changed in the HRT group, but was significantly chanced in the DIET group and the HRT+DIET group. With changes of dietary fatty acid composition, serum phospholipid fatty acid composition was significantly changed in the DIET group and the HRT+DIET group although there was tendency of returning to initial value after 12 weeks. Judging from changes in serum phospholipid fatty acid composition, subjects' adherence to dietary intervention tended to decrease after 12 weeks. However, the changes of antioxidant vitamins and fatty acid composition in dietary intake were compatible with the changes of those in serum level, and we can conclude that dietary intervention was adhered quite well by subjects.

임채성,권경술,장호선,정태안,오창근 대한의진균학회 1997 대한의진균학회지 Vol.2 No.1

Background: The clinical types of sporotrichosis are generally classified into four group: lymphocutaneous, fixed cutaneous, and cutaneous disseminated, and hematogenous. Of these, the lymphocutaneous variety is the most frequently encountered pattern, constituting 80% of sporotrichosis patients and the fixed cutaneous sporotrichosis is the next. Potassium iodide (KI) was the most commonly used drug for the treatment of sporotrichosis. Many studies about these clinical findings of sporotrichosis have been reported, but comparative study on the changes in clinical findings has not been reported. Objective: The purpose of this study is to clarify the changes of the clinical findings in sporotrichosis in Korea. Methods: A total of 58 patients with sporotrichosis who had visited the Department of Dermatology, Pusan National University were divided into 2 groups according to the period and then the clinical findings of sporotrichosis were compared. Results: The results of study are summarized as follows: 1. During this period, there were 58 cases of sporotrichosis. In the past period (1967~1979) there were 35 cases of sporotrichosis, and there were 23 cases in the recent period (1980~1997) 2. In the past period, most cases (71.4%) were lymphocutaneous type, however in the recent period, most cases (69.2%) were fixed cutaneous type. 3. The most commonly affected site was right upper extremity in the past period, but face fright upper extremity were the most commonly affected sites in the recent period. 4. In the past period, 2nd and 3rd decades were prevalent age group, but 5th to 7th decades were prevalent age group in the recent period. 5. In the treatment of sporotrichosis, potassium iodide (KI) was the choice of treatment in the past period, however itraconazole is gradually used in the recent period. Conclusion: According to this study, many changes in clinical findings of sporotrichosis were noted, especially in the clinical type. We found that clnical type of sporotrichosis changed from lymphocutaneous type to the fixed cutaneous type with time. And we suggest that further observation would be necessary to define the meaning of these changes.

Depiartment of General Surgery, Cdlege of Medicine, Chung-AstB University With advancement of endoscopical instruments and technique, gallstone diseases can be managed with laparoscopic cholacystectomy which had rapidly and radically changed the surgicl treatment of gallstone diseases. The ideas of laparoacopic surgery was introduced 11y Germany gynecologist Serum, in 1967 and was first performed by French surgeon Mouret, Dtbois in 1987. Although many reports of early laparoscopic cholec,stectomy were excellent, many surgeons want to know the surgical results of laparoscopie cholcystectomy are enough good to perform comparing with the conventional cholecystectomy, especially in early complications and late complications. To know about above problems, we had clinical analysis of 300 patients with laparoscopic cholecystectomy who were admitted to the Departme$gt;tt of Surgery, Yong San Hospital, Chung Ang University from September 1990 to December 1991. The authors intentionally divided the observation periods into 3 groups. The first group including from 1st case to 100 cases, the second group f#om IOlth to 200th cases, the third group from 201th cases to 300th cases and observed periodical change of early and late complications fo laparoscopic cholecystectomy with accumulations kf surgical experience and improvement of surgical techniques. It's results were as follows. 1) The most prevalent age group was 4th decades arid the male to female ratio was 1 : 1.5 and had no periodical change. 2) Coexistent diseases were obesity of 30 cases(35%), hypertension of 20 cases(24%), pulmonary tuberculosis of 16 cases(19% ) in order. 3) The number of previous abdominal operations were appendectomy of 29 cases(38%), TAH of 18 cases(24%), C-section of 14 cases(l8%) in order. 4) The average operation time was 42.5 minutes and decreased compared with the past period. 5) The average postoperative hospitalization was 6 days. 6) The most predominant type in pathalogical clasfication was chronic cholecystitis(79%) and next common type was cholesterolosis(12%) 7) The most common postoperative complications mere bleeding of 3 cases(1%). bile leakage of 3 cases(1%) in order and had no periodical change. 8) The number of p41c),ts that needed Parentral'narcotics were as follows: Postoperative day: 163 casest54%)$gt; Pf.1D I: 154 cas(5L.3%), Pt7D 2: 96 cases(32.0%) and had no periodical change. 9) The frequency of parenteral narcotics were as follow: Postoperative day: 1.8, POD 1: 1.6, POD 2: 1.4 and had no periodical change. 10) According to oral cholecystogram, opacification correlated with operation time of laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Causes and Predictive Factors Associated with "Diagnosis Changed" Outcomes in Patients Notified as Tuberculosis Cases in a Private Tertiary Hospital

Kang, Byung Ju,Jo, Kyung-Wook,Park, Tai Sun,Yoo, Jung-Wan,Lee, Sei Won,Choi, Chang-Min,Oh, Yeon-Mok,Lee, Sang-Do,Kim, Woo Sung,Kim, Dong Soon,Shim, Tae Sun The Korean Academy of Tuberculosis and Respiratory 2013 Tuberculosis and Respiratory Diseases Vol.75 No.6

Background: The aim of our study was to evaluate the "diagnosis changed" rate in patients notified as tuberculosis (TB) on the Korean TB surveillance system (KTBS). Methods: A total of 1,273 patients notified as TB cases on the KTBS in one private tertiary hospital in 2011 were enrolled in the present study. Patients were classified into three groups: "diagnosis maintained", "diagnosis changed" (initially notified as TB, but ultimately diagnosed as non-TB), and "administrative error" (notified as TB due to administrative errors). Results: Excluding 17 patients in the "administrative error" group, the "diagnosis maintained" and "diagnosis changed" groups included 1,097 (87.3%) and 159 patients (12.7%), respectively. Common causes of "diagnosis changed" were nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) disease (51.7%, 61/118), and pneumonia (17.8%) in cases notified as pulmonary TB, and meningitis (19.5%, 8/41) and Crohn's disease (12.2%) in cases notified as extrapulmonary TB. Being older than 35 years of age (odds ratio [OR], 2.18) and a positive acid-fast bacilli stain (OR, 1.58) were positive predictors and a TB-related radiological finding (OR, 0.42) was a negative predictor for a "diagnosis changed" result via multivariate logistic regression analysis in pulmonary TB cases. Conclusion: Because of a high "diagnosis changed" rate in TB notifications to the KTBS, the TB incidence rate measured by the KTBS may be overestimated. Considering the worldwide trend toward increased NTM disease, the "diagnosis changed" rate may increase over time. Thus, when reporting the annual TB notification rate in Korea, the exclusion of "diagnosis changed" cases is desirable.

To study the regulation of amniotic fluid volume and electrolyte concentration by the Membranes surrounding the amniotic fluid, the rate of Li⁺ disappearance from amniotic sac of expired fetuses were examined while increasing the amniotic volume and osmolarity in rabbits. After intraamniotic injection of 1 ml isosmotic saline (about 20% of the amniotic fluid volume) containing 15 mM LiCl and 0.5 g/L Censored, the time courses of Li⁺ and Censored disappearance were determined. From there the Li⁺ clearance through the extrafetal routes was estimated and compared with that obtained from living fetuses. The volume, Na⁺ concentration and osmolarity of amniotic fluid were measured and their relationships with Li⁺ disappearance were evaluated. The fellowing results were obtained: 1. The rate of disappearance from amniotic fluid of living fetuses during the first 30 minutes was strikingly higher for Li⁺ than for Censored, suggesting that extrafetal routes exist. At 60 and 90 minutes, however, the disappearance rate of Li⁺ was less than that of Censored, suggesting the possibility of Li⁺ reentry through fetal urination. 2. The disappearance of Li⁺ from the amniotic fluid of the expired fetus was substantial, although lower than that of living fetuses, throughout the experimental period. 3. The Na⁺ concentration and the osmolarity of the amniotic fluid of expired fetus measured 30 minutes after an intraamniotic injection of isoosmotic saline showed wide variation, but thereafter they changed gradually towards the normal extracellular fluid level. 4. When the amniotic fluid was iso- or hyposmolar, the rate of Li⁺ disappearance from the amniotic fluid of the expired fetuses showed little variation. However, when the amniotic fluid was hyperosmolar, the rate at 30 minutes was markedly lower than those of isosmotic or hyposmotic amniotic fluid. At 90 minutes, the rate of Li⁺ disappearance in hyperosmolar fluid reached a similar level to the rate in isosmolar fluid. 5. The intraamniotic injection of 400 mOsm/L saline solution decreased the disappearance rate of Li⁺ from expired fetuses, while the injection of mannitol into the maternal vein induced no significant change. From these results it is concluded that: 1) a significant amount of Li⁺ may leave the amniotic fluid via filtration through the membranes surrounding the amniotic fluid, 2) during hyperosmolar challenge to amniotic fluid, osmotic bulk flow might counteract the filterable loss, and 3) Li⁺ disappearance might continue even after the volume and osmolarity of the amniotic fluid have recovered to control values.
