정근,Chung, Keun 한국응용곤충학회 2001 한국응용곤충학회지 Vol.40 No.1

강원도 인제군에 있는 점봉산의 한 소하천에서 신갈나무 낙엽이 분쇄되는 양상을 까치 박달과 비교하여 보았다. 신갈나무 낙엽의 하루당 분쇄율(-k . day$^{-1}$)은 0.00503으로서 까치박달 낙엽의 약 113이었다. 낙엽주머니에서는 총 45 분류군에 속한 대형무척추동물이 출현하였는데 까치 박달에서 39 분류군이, 신갈나무 낙엽 주머니에서 38분류군이 채집되었다. 강도래목에 속하는 Nemoura tau는 두 낙엽주머니에서 가장 흔한 분류군이었고 비포식성 Chironomidae는 두 번째로 흔한 분 류군이었다. 현존량은 Gammarus가 가장 높았고 그 다음으로 하루살이에 속한 Cincticostella castanea가 높았다 곤충 분류군의 대부분에서 4~6월 사이에 현존량이 큰 폭으로 감소하였으나 이 시기에 비 곤충류의 현존량은 오히려 증가하였다. 낙엽을 뜯어먹는 무리 중 낙엽분쇄에 가장 중요한 분류군은 Gammarus로서 이들은 까치박달낙엽을 선호하는 것으로 나타났다. Nemoura tau 는 가장 흔한 분류군 이었으나 이들이 1차하천에서 일어나는 낙엽분쇄에 미치는 영향은 크지 않은 것으로 보였다. 뜯어먹는 무리에 속한 다른 분류군은 이 둘에 비하여 개체수와 현존량이 매우 낮으므로 1차하천의 낙엽분쇄는 Gammarus의 섭식생태에 의하여 크게 결정될 것으로 판단되었다. Leaf Litter processing rate of Quercus mongolica was compared with that of Carpinus cordata in a first-order stream draining Mt. Jumbong in Inje-Gun, Kangwon Province. Daily processing rate (-k . day$^{-1}$ ) of Q. mongolica leaf litter in mesh bags was 0.00503, about one-third of that of C. cordata leaf litter. Forty five macroinvertebrate taxa were collected from litter bags; 39 taxi from C. cordate and 38 taxa from Q. mongolica litter bags. Nemoura tau, a precopteran shredder, was the most abundant taxon in both leaf species, and the second was the non-predatory chironomids. In terms of biomass, Gammarus, an amphipodan shredder, was the largest. and followed by Cincticostella castanea, an ephemeropteran gatherers. The biomass of most insect taxa decreased during April to June, while that of non-insect taxa greatly increased during the same time period. Gammarus was the most important shredder talon to the leaf litter breakdown in the experimental stream and appeared to prefer C. cordata to Q. nongolica leaf litter. N. tau, in spite of its abundance, seemed to have a limited effect on the leaf litter processing . Since other shredders were minor compared with these two taxa, leaf litter processing in this stream appeared to largely depend on the feeding ecology of Gammarus.

Neurilemmomas are benign nerve sheath tumors arising from peripheral Schwann cells. The tumor composed of Schwann cells and collagen fibers, can occur in any region of the body where there is a nerve that has a Schwann sheath. The incidence of the tumor in the head and neck is about 30% with many of these occurring on the vagus nerve. Neurilemmoma is characterized by solitary occurrence, with sharp demarcation and encapsulation. Multiple genesis is very rare. This article presents a rare case of multiple neurilemmomas located bilaterally in the cervical region.

Litter bags containing l0g of Carpinus cordata placed during mid-April in a 1st- and 4th-order streams draining the southeastern slope of Mt. Jumbong. Most leaf litter were processed by the late-June and leaf breakdown rates (-k ±95% CI) were -0.043±0.0100/day in the 1st-order stream and -0.039±0.0105/day in the 4th-order stream. The number of taxa colonizing litter bags was similar between streams. The number of individuals per bag was greater in the 1st-order stream, largely due to Copepoda. Among shredder functional feeding group, Gammarus, which appeared almost exclusively in the 1st-order stream, and Goerodes seemed to be the most important taxa in the 1st- and 4th-order streams, respectively.

Objectives: Minimal improvement in the long-term survival of head and neck cancer(HNC) patients has occurred despite a multitude of advances in the control of loco regional disease and a second primary malignancy(SPM) contribute to the continued poor prognosis for the HNC patients. This study was performed in order to identify the clinical characteristics of SPM in the HNC patients. Materials and Methods: The medical records of 354 patients of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma that were followed up after initial treatment during the period of 1987 through 1994 were reviewed. This study examines the medical records of 354 patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, of whom 26 subsequently developed a second neoplasm. Results: The actuarial SPM rate was 7.3%, and median time to presentation for the SPM was 26.8 months. The SPM were more likely to occur in male patients who had oral cavity index tumors. Patient whose index tumor was small at diagnosis had a greater chance of developing a second tumor as did those with no cervical lymph node metastases to the neck. Initial treatment modality was not associated with an increased risk of developing a second tumor. The commonest sites for the SPM were the lung and other head and neck area. The 3-year survival for patients who developed a secondary tumor from the time of its diagnosis was 27.8%. Conclusion: The SPM in the head and neck cancer patients are not uncommon and early detection of the SPM will contribute to increase the long-term survival of HNC patients.

논의 생물다양성에 관한 관심이 증가하면서 논 먹이망의 중요한 부분을 차지하고 있는 수서성 대형무척추동물을 정량적으로 평가하기 위한 효율적인 방법이 요구된다. 이를 위해, 강원도 춘천시와 충청남도 홍성군에 위치한 논에서 채집망과 방형구, 피이프형 채집기(core)로 얻어진 자료를 비교하여 적절한 채집기를 알아보았다. 채집망은 틀이 사각형이고, 바닥이 평평하기 때문에, 채집망의 조사 면적은 토양을 훑은 길이와 망의 넓이를 곱하여 측정되었다. 모든 채집물은 두 벼줄 사이에서 채집되었다. 대형무척추동물은 춘천과 홍성에서 24, 28분류군이 채집되었다. 춘천에서 분류군수는 세 가지 채집기에서 유사했지만(17-18분류군), 추정밀도는 그렇지 않았다(채집망, $1317/m^2$; 방형구, $1368/m^2$ core, $1810/m^2$). 홍성에서는 채집망에서 분류군 수가 가장 컸었지만(채집망 25분류군; 방형구, 21분류군 core, 16분류군), 추정밀도는 core에서 가장 높았다(채집망, $1586/m^2$; 방형구; $2595/m^2$; core $3704/m^2$). 각 채집기의 효율은 분류군에 따라 달랐는데, 채집망에는 주로 수서곤충류가 많았던 것에 비해 방형구에는 빈모류나 깔따구과 등 토양 속에 서식하는 종류에 대한 효율이 높았다. 논에 서식하는 수서곤충에 대한 정량자료와 희귀분류군에 대한 정성자료를 통시에 얻고자 하는 경우에는 채집망을 이용하여 논 가장자리와 논 내부에서 각 6회 정량채집하고, 논둑 근처와 논 가운데에서 정성채집을 수행되는 것이 시간 및 노동력 측면에서 가장 경제적 이라고 생각된다. With growing interest in biodiversity in rice paddies, efficient sampling methods for quantitative evaluation of aquatic macroinvertebrates are needed because of their important role in rice paddies' food webs. For this reason, we sought a proper sampling method through comparing data collected by using aquatic net, quadrat, and core in rice paddies located in Chuncheon-si, Kangwon-do, Hongseong-gun, and Chungcheongnam-do. Because the frame of the net was rectangular and had a flat bottom, the area, sampledwith the aquatic net, was calculated by multiplying the net width by the sweeping length, All samples were taken from the space between the rows of rice plants. Twenty four taxa of macro invertebrates were collected in Chuncheon and 28 taxa in Hongseong. In Chuncheon, the number of taxa was similar among three sampling methods (17-18 taxa), but the number of individuals was different (aquatic net, $1,317/m^2$; quadrat, $1,368/m^2$; core, $1,810/m^2$. In Hongseong, the number of taxa sampled by aquatic net was the highest (aquatic net, 25 taxa; quadrat, 21 taxa; core, 16 taxa), but the core was the highest in the number of individuals (aquatic net, $1,586/m^2$; quadrat, $2,595/m^2$; core, $3,704/m^2$. The efficiency of samplers differed among taxa. Most of aquatic insect taxa were more abundant in the aquatic net, while those living on or in the paddy substratum such as Oligochaeta and Chironomidae were collected more in the quadrat sampler. To collect quantitative data for aquatic insects as well as to produce inventory of rare taxa, we suggest, based on samplers used in this study, to take quantitative samples of 6 replications from each of the edge and inner zones of a rice paddy by using an aquatic net, and to take qualitative samples both from sides of levees and the inner zone of rice paddy by using an aquatic net.

Background and Objectives : In children with tracheal stenosis, operative management remains a challenging problem due to difficulties of operative techniques and postoperative care. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of tracheal resection with end to end anastomosis as operative management for tracheal stenosis in children. Materials and Methods : 6 children with severe tracheal stenosis underwent tracheal resection with end to end anastomosis. Causes of stenosis were trauma in 1 case and prolonged intubation or tracheotomy in 5 cases. The diagnoses were made by radiologic evaluation (plain X-ray, CT, 3-Dimensional CT) and confirmed by direct laryngoscopy and ventilating bronchoscopy under general anesthesia. Thyroplasty and unilateral arytenoidectomy were performed in 1 case. Suprahyoid release was done in 1 case with severe adhesion. Decanulation was achieved following postoperative endoscopic examination and pulmonary function test. Postoperative physical and radiologic examinations were given at regular intervals. Results : Stenosis were improved from grade III grade I in 4 cases and from grade II to grade I in 2 cases. Decanulation was achieved on average postoperative 6 months in 5 cases, and 10 years in 1 case due to exertional dyspnea. There were 1 each case of immediate postoperative subcutaneous emphysema, pneumothorax and wound infection. Postoperative granulomas at anastomosis site were treated with laser vaporization under suspension laryngoscope and bronchoscope in 3 cases. There was 1 each case of delayed postoperative vocal cord palsy, aspiration pneumonia and loss of cough reflex. Conclusion In tracheal stenosis of children, tracheal resection with end to end anastomosis has good result with preservation of normal airway. Preoperative evaluation of local factors such as swallowing, vocal cord movement and cough reflex and general condition was important for successful treatment. As the cases in adults, authors considered this operation to be a curable operative management for tracheal stenosis.

Malignant melanoma has a very poor prognosis compared to other cancers. There are no specific tumor markers other than clinical staging and depth of invasion to predict the prognosis of the malignant melanoma. The nm23 has been known to inhibit the metastasis of the malignant melanoma, some studies showed that it is highly expressed in the malignant melanoma cell line which has a relatively weak metastatic potential. In this study, we compared the expression of nm23 in mucosal type with that in cutaneous type of the malignant melanoma in the head and neck according to the stage and survival rate to identify the role of nm23 expression as a prognostic factor in mucosal melanoma of the head and neck. Six out of eight cases in mucosal type and seven out of 11 cases in cutaneous type expressed nm23, which showed no significant differences. Between the two groups there were no significant differences in expression of nm23 according to clinicopathologic staging or two year survival rate. However, in cases with low cliniopathological staging and those surviving more than two years the expression was significantly increased which suggests that expression of nm23 can be used as an aid in determining the prognosis of mucosal melanoma.

Aneurysm of extracranial carotid artery which usually originated from trauma, but it can be developed by atheroscrelosis, infection and congenital vascular disease, is defined as abnormal dilatation of intimal wall of carotid artery. The proper management should not be delayed due to occurrence of high neulorogic complication. Recently the authors experienced a case of nontraumatic extracranial internal carotid artery aneurysm, which was successfully resected using intraoperative EEG monitoring for the prevention of ischemic attack and was reconstructed with end to end anastomosis using nylon 9 - 0. On postoperative day #13, we could confirm well healed aneurysmal site and normal blood flow in the view of arteriography.

Distribution of biota and removal efficiency of organic matter in natural wetland systems were examined from June to October 1998. The aquatic macrophyte communities were consisted of 13 families and 22 species. The composition of occurrence species were as follows: Phragmites communis Trinius are 35%, Persicaria thunbergii Nakai are 19%, Typha angustifolia L. are 17%, Bidens tripartita L. are 16%, Echinochloa crus-galli(L.) Beauv. are 12% and others are 1%. The fauna collected from 5 sites consisted of total 6 classes of macroinvertebrates. The composition of occurrence classes were as follows: Insecta are 76%, Oligochaeta are 19%, Gastrapoda are 4% and others are 1%. These included 18 families, 7 orders of Insecta. The larve and mosquito and midges were found in wetlands. Preventive strategies are needed for the suppression of mosquito at the stage of wetland planning and design. In wetland, removal efficiency of dissolved organic carbon is low because of primary production and the background level of DOC in the wetland discharge seems to be 5 ㎎C/ℓ, but those of BOD was ca. 50%. Wetlands receiving water of low concentration can not work as purification field.[Biota, Organic matter removal, Wetland].
