<P>PURPOSE: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of single-session OK-432 sclerotherapy for the treatment of renal cysts. MATERIALS AND METHODS: From October 2005 to November 2006, 48 patients (61 simple renal cysts) were included in the study. Indications were determined as flank discomfort (n = 37) or patient reassurance due to increasing size (n = 11). The simple renal cysts were aspirated under ultrasonography (US), at which point OK-432 was injected into the cyst. Follow-up was performed with US or computed tomography scan every 3 months until 1 year. Complete regression of the renal cyst or more than 70% reduction in size with no symptoms indicated a successful treatment. RESULTS: Among 61 renal cysts of 48 patients, the overall success rate was 98.4%. Complete regression occurred in 46 cysts (75.4%), and more than 90% reduction in size occurred in 6 cysts (9.8%). A size reduction of 80% to 90% and 70% to 80% occurred in five (8.2%) and three cysts (4.9%), respectively. A size reduction less than 70% occurred in only one cyst (1.6%). The success of cyst regression was correlated with cyst volume. Clinical symptoms resolved in 100% of patients with symptomatic cysts, and there was no enlargement of the aspirated cysts at the 1-year follow-up. After the procedure, there were only some minor complications, such as mild fever, flank pain, and leukocytosis, which subsided with the conservative treatment. CONCLUSIONS: Percutaneous OK-432 sclerotherapy is simple, safe, and effective, and it can be an alternative first-line therapy for simple renal cysts.</P>

Objective : This study was performed to investigate the relationship between social support and quality of life among cancer patients receiving radiation therapy. Matehals and Methods : The data were collected from 98 patients, who were receiving radiation therapy at two university hospitals located in GwangUJu, used by structured questionnaire. For statistical analyses of the association between quality of life and various characteristics, data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, Pearson 's correlation, and multiple regression analysis. Results: 1. There were 56(57.1%) males and 42(42.9%) females. Age ranged from 21 to 82 years. The primary sites of cancer were gastrointestinal tract (24.5%), lung (23.5%), breast (21.4%), and head and neck (11.2%) in order. 2. The mean scores of social, family, and medical support were 4.30 0.58, 4.49 0.78, 4.11 0.65, respectively. The score of quality of life was 5.83 1.63 (range: 1.95 ~ 9.05). 3. An analysis of the association between several factors of patients and quality of life showed that the statistically significant factors were age, the presence of distant metastasis, family support, medical support and social support. 4. As a result of the multiple regression analysis, only social support was significant (β=0.932, P=0.02) with quality of life, but age and presence of distant metastasis were not significant. Conclusion : This suggests that quality of life in cancer patients could be improved by strengthening the social support which consists of family and medical support. Further study would be necessary to evaluate separately several aspects of quality of life among cancer patients.

악성코드에 대한 보다 바람직한 예방은 클라이언트측이 아닌 서버측에서 이루어지는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 새로운 개념 의 서버용 안티바이러스 엔진인 SAVE 1.0을 설계 구현하여 제시한다. SAVE는 기본적으로 1개의 AV모니터와 다수의 AV에이전트로 구성되어 있는데 다중 CPU를 장착한 병렬처리서버의 특징을 직접 활용하기 위하여 관리자가 다중쓰레드 기법을 직접 지정할 수 있도록 하고 있다 악성코드를 5가지 부류로 구분하여 바이러스 시그너쳐 DB를 구축 제공함으로써 부류별 진단을 지정할 수 있도록 하고 있으며 실시간 네트워크 패킷 검사를 통한 악성코드 유입 점검 기능도 제공한다. 웹 기반의 관리자 인터페이스는 뛰어난 사용자 편의성을 제공하고 있다. 성능실험결과 악성코드 검색율은 국내외 상용제품과 비교해서 매우 우수한 것으로 나타났으며 검색속도에 있어서도 서버의 CPU 수 증가에 거의 선형 비례하여 향상되는 특징을 보이고 있다. It is more desirable to prevent and detect the malicious codes in server system rather than in client PCs. In this paper, we suggest a new anti-virus engine, SAVE 1.0, which is executed on a parallel processing server. SAVE consists of 1 AV monitor and several AV agents. A system administrator can control the degree of multi-thread directly in order to enhance the utilization of parallel processing servers. Virus signature DBs in SAVE are classified into 5 categories, which support system administrator's options to use the classifier or not. By real-time checking of network packets, the influx of malicious codes can be prevented. Web-based GUI is one of the convenient functions provided in SAVE. In performance tests, we have confirmed that SAVE has higher virus detection ratio than any other AV engine, and SAVE has a desirable feature as an software of parallel processing servers since the performance of SAVE is improved almost linearly as the CPUs in a parallel processing server increases.

목적 : 대부분의 AME 효소 유전자는 transposon이나 plasmid 상태로 전달되며 staphylococcal chromosomal cassette mec (SCCmec) 내에도 삽입되어 있다. 최근 MRSA의 SCCmec 유형에 따라 다양한 내성유전자를 가지는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 따라서 1, 2차 의료기관에서 분리된 황색포도알균의 항생제 내성률을 조사하고 MRSA에서 SCCmec type에 따른 AME 효소 유전자의 분포를 확인하였다. 재료 및 방법 : 2004년 1, 2차 의료기관에서 분리된 황색포도알균 640주를 대상으로 methicillin의 내성유전자 mecA와 AME 효소 유전자 aac(6')-aph(2"), aph(3')-IIIa, ant(4')-Ia 등을 multiplex PCR 방법을 이용하여 확인하였다. 항생제 감수성 시험과 MIC 값은 한천배지 희석법으로 확인하였고 SCCmec type도 결정하였다. 결과 : 640주의 황색포도알균 중 MRSA을은 39.7%였으며 MRSA 분리주 모두 mecA 유전자가 검출되었다. Aminoglycoside 중 kanamycin, tobramycin에 대한 내성률은 98.1%이었고, gentamicin 68.7%, amikacin 30.8%, netilomicin 2.8%이었으며 vancomycm에는 모두 감수성이었다. Oxacillin MIC_50과 MIC_90은 각각 128 ug/mL, 256 ug/mL이었으며 254주의 MRSA 중 214주를 선별하여 AME 효소 유전자를 확인한 결과 aph(3')-IIIa 13.1%, aad(6')-aph(2") 77.1%, ant(4)-Ia 53.3%이었으며 SCCmec type에 따라서는 type II, type III, type IV가 각각 50.9%, 16.4%, 32.7%였다. SCCmec type에 따른 AME 효소 유전자의 분포는 SCCmec type II에서는 aac(6')-aph(2")와 aac(6')-aph(2")/ant(4')-Ia가 각각 49.5%, 36.7%에서 검출되었고 type III에서는 aph(3')-IIIa/aac(6')-aph(2")가 60%, aac(6')-aph(2")가 31.4%, type IV에서는 aac(6')-aph(2")/ant(4')-Ia와 ant(4')-Ia가 각각 41.4%, 50%로 나타났다. 결론 : 1, 2차 의료기관에서 분리한 황색포도알균 분리주의 메티실린 내성률은 39.7%이었다. MRSA 분리주 중 SCCmec type II와 III에서는 aac(6')-aph(2")가, SCCmec type IV에서는 ant(4')-Ia가 90% 이상 검출되어 SCCmec type과 AME 효소 유전자 분포와는 연관성이 있는 것으로 나타났다. Background : Many genes encoding aminoglycoside modifying enzymes (AMEs) on transposon or plasmid were transferred from one strain to another strain and inserted into a staphylococcal chromosomal cassette mec (SCCmec). There are very diverse subtypes in SCCmec type to the insertion of resistant genes. Therefore, we researched the resistance rates of antibiotics and distribution of AME genes according to SCCmec type in MRSA strains. Materials and Methods : We isolated 640 Staphylococcus aureus from non-tertiary hospitals in 2004, detected mecA, aac(6')-aph(2"), aph(3')-llla, and ant(4')-la using the multiplex PCR method, tested antibacterial susceptibility disk diffusion and minimal inhibitory concentration, and determined SCCmec type. Results : Of 640 S. aureus isolates, MRSA rate was 39.7% and all MRSA isolates carried mecA gene. Among 214 MRSA selected, aminoglycoside-resistant rates were 98.1% in kanamycin and tobramycin, 68.7% in gentamicin, 30.8% in amikacin, and 2.8% in netilmicin. The detection rates for aac(6')-aph(2"), aph(3')-llla, and ant(4')-la were 77.1%, 13.1%, and 53.3%, respectively. Also, SCCmec type was 50.9% in SCCmec type II, 16.4% in type Ill, and 32.7% in type IV. The genes encoding AMEs were distributed aac(6')-aph(2") (49.5%) and aac(6')-aph(2")/ant(4')-la (36.7%) in SCCmec type II, aph(3')-llla/aaac(6')-aph(2") (60%) and aac(6')-aph(2") (31.4%) in type III, and aac(6')-aph(2")/ant(4')-la (41.4%) and ant(4')-la (50%) in type IV. Conclusion : 39.7% of S. aureus isolated from non-tertiary hospitals was resistant to methicillin. More than 90% of MRSA isolates were detected aac(6')-aph(2") in SCCmec type II and Ill, and ant(4')-la in type IV. With these results, the genes encoding AMEs may be closed related to SCCmec type.
