N/A The MAG3 is a tubular excreting radiopharmaceutical for renal image. We synthe-sized benzoyl MAG3 (Bz-MAG3) and made a kit for labeling with Tc-99m. We checked the labeling effeciency of Tc-99m labeled MAG3 and biodistribution. Labeling efficiency was checked by TLC- SG (acetonitrile/H2O=2/1). After injecting of 1 mCi of Tc-99M-MAG3 to ICR-mice, Tmax(min), T1/2(min) were obtained in the renogram. Sequencial images (30sec, 2min, 5min, 10min, 15min, 20min) of TC-99m-MAG3 were compared with those of commercial Tc-99m-DTPA (Du Pont Merck Pharmaceutical Co.) kit. 1) The Rf value of synthesized Tc-99m-MAG3 was 0.78 and labeling efficiency was 97.5±1.9% (n=10). 2) The dynamic images of the Tc-99m-MAG3 were better than those of the Tc-99m-DTPA. 3) The Tmax(min.) and T1/2(min.) of Tc-99m-MAG3 (n=10) were 1.5±0.5 (left), 1.4±0.4(right), and 4.3±1.4 (left), 4.8±2.0 (right), respectivel. The Tmax(min.) and T1/2(min.) of Tc-99m-DTPA (n=7) were 2.7±1.6 (left), 2.7±1.6 right), and 3.8±1.7 (left), 4.5±2.7 (right), respectively. The quaility of image and labeling efficiency of the synthesized Bz-MAG3 kit were excellent, that it was supposed to be used in routine clinical work.

Park, Dong-Seok,Kim, Ji-Hoon,Min, Byung-Il,Oh, Soo-Myung 경희대학교 동서의학연구소 1999 INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON EAST-WEST MEDICINE Vol.1999 No.1

Dong-Seok Park¹, Ji-Hoon Kim¹ and Byung-Il Min, Soo-Myung Oh,³¹Department of Acupuncture and Moxibustion, College of Medicine, ²Department of Physiology, College of Medicine, And ³East-West Medical Research Institute, Kyung Hee University,Seoul, Korea. Analgesic Effect of Manual Acupuncture and Electroacupuncture combined with Twirling Method. Proceeding of International Symposium on East-West Medicine Seoul. 187-200, 1999.-Twirling the needle (TN) is one of several needing methods frequently used for acupuncture in the oriental medicine. The present study was conducted to see if TN enhanced the antinociceptive effect produced by plain-or electroacupuncture in the rat tail flick test. Rats (Sprague-Dawley, 200-300g)lightly anesthetized with thiopental sodium(40mg/kg, i.p.) were used in the tail-flick test. The basal reaction time for tail-flick was 2 sec. For "plain" acupuncture(PA), a needle was inserted for 20 min into a Chock-samni (ST36) acupuncture point which (is located at the anterior tibial muscle and about 10mm below the knee joint). For electroacupuncture(EA), train-pulses(3 Hz,0.3-ms pulse width, 0.2-0.3mA) were applied to the inserted needle for the period of insertion. For combining TN with either PA or EA, TN was performed during the each acupuncture period. Two methods for TN were used; twirling 3 times for 1 second persisted for 1 min in every 5 mins(long-duration and long-interval;LDLI) and twirling 3 times for 1 second persisted for 10 sec in every 1 min(short-duration and short-interval;SDSI). PA and EA produced an increase in tail flick latency (TFL); peak increases were 21.3±5.1% and 42.1±17.3% of the pre-acupunture control, respectively, and occurred immediately after cessation of 20min-acupuncture. Performing TN combined with PA increased TFL more than PA itself by showing a greater peak increase in TFL when performed with a SDSI-TN than with a LDLI-TN(60.6±12.5% and 42.7±22.7% of the pre-acupuncture control, respectively). Performing TN combined with EA also increased TFL more than EA itself and a greater peak increase in TFL was observed with a SDSI-TN as compared to a LDLI-TN(77.5±13.8% and 67.3±14.0% of the pre-acupuncture control, respectively). These results indicate that TN enhances both PA-and EA-produced antinociception where an greater enhanced antinociception than a LDLI-TN. It is suggested that performing a SDSI-TN combined with EA seems to be one of the most effective ways to produce analgesia.

동맥혈 채혈후 시간 경과 및 온도 변화가 가스분압 및 PH 에 미치는 영향에 관한 연구

김동수,이승환,김건식,강화자,신광일,여민구 대한마취과학회 1989 Korean Journal of Anesthesiology Vol.22 No.6

Blood gas samples are highly susceptible to preanalytic error due to improper methods of obtaining or handling the sample prior to delivery to the laboratory. The errors in the measurement of blood gas analysis are currently derived from the exposure of sample to atmosphere, effects of anticoagulant itself, temperature difference between the measuring electrode and drawn blood and the delay in running the sample. To study the effects of the delay in measuring the sample and the temperature difference between the measuring electrode and drawn blood on values of blood gases and pH, we analyzed the arterial sampling from the 24 patients who were taking elective surgery or on his/her recovery period with indwelling arterial catheter. The plastic sampling syringes were kept at 4。C (refrigerator) or 22。-24。C (room temperature) and analyzed at regular intervals (1, 10, 30, 60,120 min) for 120 minutes. The following results were obtained: 1) When the arterial blood drawn from the anesthetized patients were stored 4。C, partial pressure of oxygen (PaO₂) decreased significantly after 20 min, whereas those stored at room temperature decreased significantly after 10 min. 2) When the arterial blood drawn from the recovery patients were stored at 4。C, PaO₂ did not decrease significantly through the experimental period of 120 min. Although those stored at room temperature did not decrease significantly through the period of 120 min. 3) Partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the arterial blood (PaCO₂,) drawn from the anesthetized patients increased significantly by 120 min. at 4。C, whereas those at room temperature increased significantly after 20 min. 4) PaCO₂, of the recovery patients increased signigicantly by 120 min. at 4。C, whereas those at room temperature increased significantly after 30 min. 5) pH of the arterial blood drawn from either anesthetized or recovery patients decreased significantly by 120 min. at 4。C, whereas those at room temperature decreased significantly after 60 min. 6) No significant changes al oxygen saturation (SaO₂) and content (CaO₂) were noted in either anesthetized or recovery. patients in accordance with time elapsed at 4。C or room temperature. In summary, as the changes of PO₂ in particular higher than physiologic PO₂ and PCO₂ in the arterial blood stored at room temperature are significant in accordance with the delay in measuring, it would be advisable to analyze the sample in a short period of time or to store it in a cool place when the measuring will be delayed.

Background: Use of antispasmodic medication prior to colonoscopy is controversial but someone believes antispasmodic may improve visualization of colonic mucosa and ease colonoscope insertion. So, we designed a study to assess the effect of premedication with the antispasmodic, hyoscine-N-butyl bromide(Buscopan') on the performance of colonoscopy. Methods: This study was prospective, double blinded, randomized, controlled study, One hundred three consecutive patients were randomized to receive intravenous buscopan lml(n=52) or placebo(n=51) combined with our standard initial medication(me- peridine 50 mg and midazolam 2 mg). Insertion of colonoscopy was timed, and 100 mm visual analogue scales (VAS) were used for asscssing difficulty of procedure, colonic motility, frequency of positional change, frequency of external compression, difficulty of assistance and degree of discomfort experienced by the patients. Results: There were no significant differences of intubation time between buscopan group(mean time, 7.23 min., range 2~15) and placebo group(7.07 min., range 3-25), (p=0.83) and withdrawal time between buscopan group (6.46 min., range 2-22) and placebo group(6.76 min., range 2 25), (p=0.69). Also, there was no significant differences in intubation time between males and females(buscopan; males 7.00 min., females 7.60 min., p=0.34, placebo; males 7.0~5 min., females 7.08 min., p 0.44). The VAS scores checked by endoscopist(p=0.29), assistant(p=0.32) and patient (p=0.15) were not significantly different in both groups. There were no significant differences in intubation time, VAS scores nf endoscopist, assistant, and patients. Conclusion: Premedication with intravenous bu.opan has no advantage on colonoscopy procedure. Use of antispasmodic medication prior to colonoscopy was not considered as recommendable agent.

Jeong, Dong Won,Kim, Young Hoon,Kim, Hui Hyun,Ji, Hye Young,Yoo, Sun Dong,Choi, Won Rack,Lee, Soo Min,Han, Chang-Kyun,Lee, Hye Suk WILEY PUBLISHERS 2007 BIOPHARMACEUTICS AND DRUG DISPOSITION Vol.28 No.2

<P>The pharmacokinetics of oleanolic acid was evaluated in vitro and in vivo. From Caco-2 cell permeation studies, oleanolic acid was a low permeability compound with no directional effects, suggesting a low in vivo absorption mediated by a passive diffusion. Oleanolic acid was metabolically unstable following incubation with rat liver microsomes in the presence of NADPH. After intravenous injection at doses of 0.5, 1 and 2 mg/kg doses, oleanolic acid showed dose-linear pharmacokinetics as evidenced by unaltered CL (28.6–33.0 ml/min/kg), V<SUB>ss</SUB> (437–583 ml/kg), dose-normalized AUC (16.0–17.9 µg min/ml based on 1 mg/kg) and t<SUB>1/2</SUB> (41.9–52.7 min). Following oral administration of oleanolic acid at doses of 10, 25 and 50 mg/kg, T<SUB>max</SUB>, t<SUB>1/2</SUB>, dose-normalized C<SUB>max</SUB> (66–74 ng/ml based on 25 mg/kg) and dose-normalized AUC (5.4–5.9 µg min/ml based on 25 mg/kg) were comparable between 25 and 50 mg/kg dose, but the plasma concentrations at 10 mg/kg dose were not measurable as they were below the limit of quantitation (2 ng/ml). The absolute oral bioavailability was 0.7% for oral doses of 25 and 50 mg/kg. The extent of urinary excretion was minimal for both i.v. and oral doses. The very low oral bioavailability of oleanolic acid could be due to a poor absorption and extensive metabolic clearance. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.</P>

채수안(Soo Ahn Chae),박용민(Yong Min Park),유병훈(Byoung Hoon Yoo),김동욱(Dong Wook Kim) 대한소아신경학회 2002 대한소아신경학회지 Vol.10 No.2

목 적 : 간질환자들은 고열 발생시 발작의 발현이 증가하는 경향이 있다. 이것은 간질상태의 뇌에서 고체온이 신경원의 과흥분성 및 손상과 관련이 있음을 시사하는 것이다. 따라서 본 저자들은 실험쥐 해마부위 조직배양을 이용하여 신경원의 발작 손상에 대한 발열의 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 방 법 : 실험쥐 해마부위 조직배양을 aCSF의 온도를 39℃까지 단순히 상승시킨 단순 발열군과 aCSF 온도의 상승 없이 36℃에서 조직을 유지시킨 단순 비발열군으로 분류하여 발열이 정상 신경원에 손상을 유발시키는지의 여부와 처음에 36℃에서 stimulus train을 가한 후 aCSF의 온도를 39℃까지 상승시킨 후 2번째 stimulus train을 가한 발열 발작군과 2번째 stimulus train을 가할 시에도 온도를 36℃로 유지시킨 비발열 발작군에서 발열중의 발작과 비발열중의 발작시 신경원 손상의 차이가 있는지를 알아보았다. 결 과 : 발열이 정상 신경원에 손상을 유발시키는지의 여부를 알아보기 위한 단순 발열군과 단순 비발열군 간의 신경원 손상정도 비교에서 해마의 CA1과 CA3 부위 모두에서 실험 24, 48, 72시간 경과 후 두 군간의 통계적으로 의미 있는 신경원 손상의 차이를 발견할 수 없었다. 발열증의 발작과 비발열증의 발작시 신경원 손상의 차이가 있는지를 알아보기 위한 발열 발작군과 비발열 발작군의 신경원 손상정도의 비교에서 해마의 CA1 부위이 션경원 손상정도는 AD 유발 후 24, 48, 72시간 경과 후 모두에서 발열 발작군이 비발열 발작군에 비하여 신경원 손상이 통계적으로 의미 있게 많았고, CA3 부위의 신경원 손상 정도는 AD 유발 후 24시간과 48시간 경과 후에서는 두 군간에 통계적으로 의미 있는 신경원 손상의 차이가 없었지만 72시간 경과 후에서는 발열 발작군이 비발열 발작군에 비하여 통계적으로 의미 있게 신경원 손상의 정도가 심하였다. 결 론 : 정상 뇌에서 단순 고체온은 신경원 손상을 유발시키지 않으나 간질상태의 뇌에서 고체온시의 발작은 정상체온에서의 발작시보다 신경원 손상을 심화시킬 수 있음을 시사하는 것이다. 이것은 간질 상태의 뇌에서는 발열이 발작으로 인한 뇌손상에 상승 효과를 유발시킬 수 있으므로 간질 환자에서 발열 발생 시 신속하고도 적절한 처치가 발열로 인한 발작으로 초래될 수 있는 뇌 손상을 예방하는데 중요할 것으로 생각된다. Purpose : Epileptic patients have a increasing tendency to develop seizure attack in high temperature. This finding suggests that high temperature may have an effect on neuronal hyperexcitability and injury of epileptic brain. Therefore, the influence of high temperature on normal and epileptic brain was studied in organotypic explant cultures of rat. Methods : Fourteen days-in-vitro cultures from 8 day-olf rat pups were perfused with standard aCSF bubbled with 95%/5% O/CO in a microchamber. Stimulus train(0.3 sec, 60 Hz) was applied to Schaffer collaterals in CA3 and extracellular field potential was recorded in the CA1 pyramidal layer. At 36℃ initially, AD was evoked. In high temperature(HT) group, the cultures were subjected to 39℃ for a period of 8 min before the second stimulus train was applied. They were then restored to 36℃ for 10 min. In normal temperature group, temperature was maintained at 36℃ for the second stimulus train. The cultures were returned to the incubator and observed serially for neuronal damage. Intensity of propidium iodide fluorescence indicative of neuronal injury was quantitated by digital image analysis. The cultures on the same insert that were not stimulated served as the unstimulated groups. Results : There was not a statistically significant difference in neuronal damage between the unstimulated high-temperature(HT) and normal-temperature(NT) group. In CA1 sector, % damage(mean±SEM) was 0.42±0.20 vs 0.27±0.05 at 24 hrs(HT vs NT)group, n=16 each, P>0.05, Student t-test); 1.81±0.79 vs 1.43±0.27 at 48 hrs(P>0.05); 3.50±1.32 vs 3.35±0.56 at 72 hrs(P<0.05). In CA3 sector, % damage was 0.34±0.10 vs 0.20±0.03 at 24 hra(P>0.05); 0.99±0.20 vs 0.83±0.23 at 48 hrs(P>0.05); 2.00±0.38% vs 2.26±0.35% at 72 hrs(P>0.05). Neuronal damage on AD induced cultures during febrile setting(n=16) was significantly higher than in nonfebrile setting(n=16). In CA1 sector, % damage was 6.63±2.56 vs 0.92±0.45 at 24 hrs(febrile setting vs nonfebrile setting, P=0.036); 26.37±7.44 vs 4.99±2.23 at 48 hrs(P=0.010); 38.59±9.63 vs 6.48±2.30 at 72 hrs (P=0.003). In CA3 sector, % damage was 1.23±0.48 vs 3.91±2.37 at 24 hrs(P=0.277); 13.09±5.75 vs 5.93±3.27 at 48 hrs(P=0.288); 27.86±8.68 vs 7.54±3.74 at 72 hrs(P=0.04). Conclusion : At high temperature, seizures in epileptic brain may be more injurious than seizures in normal temperature.

목적: 초기 자궁내막암의 수술적치료 시 복강경유도하 질식 자궁절제술 및 골반림프절절제술군과 복식수술군의 수술결과 및 재발율에 대해 비교하고자하였다. 연구 방법: 2003년 3월부터 2005년 5월까지 초기 자궁내막암 환자를 인구학적 특성이 같은 63명을 선택하여 복강경유도하 질식 자궁절제술 및 골반림프절절제술군 26명, 복식수술군 37명으로 나누어 수술 전후 혈색소 차이, 평균수술시간, 취득한 골반림프절갯수, 평균재원일수, 추가치료율, 재발률을 비교하였다. 결과: 복강경유도하 질식 자궁절제술 및 골반림프절절제술을 시행한 군과 복식수술을 시행한 군과의 비교에서 수술 전후 혈색소 차이, 평균수술시간, 취득한 골반림프절 갯수, 평균재원일수, 재발률에 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다. 결론: 초기 자궁내막암의 수술 시 복강경유도하 질식자궁절제술 및 골반림프절절제술 방법이 복식방법에 비해 수술결과 및 재발률에 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없으며 그 대체 수술법으로 많은 활용이 기대되었다. Objective: To compare laparoscopic surgery with conventional abdominal surgery in patients with early stage endometrial cancer. Methods: A retrospective review of 63 patients with early stage endometrial cancer managed between March 2003 and May 2005. Two groups were defined whether they had been treated by laparoscopy (case group: n=26) or by laparotomy (control group: n=37). We compared age, body mass index (BMI), hemoglobin change, operation time, number of pelvic lymph nodes, hospital stay, case with adjuvant treatment and recurrence between two groups. Results: There was no statistical difference in characteristics (age, BMI, nulliparity, previous abdominal surgery, FIGO stage, histologic grade). between case and control group. In addition, there was no statistical difference in operation data and outcomes between two groups. Hemoglobin changes were 1.1 g/dL (case group) vs 1.7 g/dL (control group) (p=0.072). Operation time was 131 min vs. 115 min. The numbers of lymph nodes obtained were 8.7 vs 7.7 (right) 9.2 vs. 7.6 (left). Hospital stays were 8.4 vs. 9.2 days. Adjuvant treatment cases were 7 vs. 15. Recurrent case was one in each group. Two patients initially evaluated by laparoscopy were converted to laparotomy due to bleeding and adhesion. Conclusion: Laparoscopic surgery for treatment of early endometrial cancer is a safe and effective alternative to laparotomy . However, long-term survival and risk of recurrence have yet to be determined.

Coronary artery aneurysms are detected with increasing frequency because of the routine use of coronary angiography in the diagnosis and management of coronary artery disease. Although some coronary artery aneurysms are congenital or inflammatory, most are atherosclerotic. The prognosis of atherosclerotic coronary artery aneurysm may depend on the morphology of the aneurysm or the presence of coexisting obstructive disease. Coronary artery aneurysms have been also reported to occur after ballon angioplasty, directional athrectomy, laser angioplasty, and stent implantation with a frequency of 2% to 4%. The long-term outcome of post-intervention coronary artery aneurysm is unknown. We report two cases of the development of a coronary aneurysm 6 months after stent implantation as a treatment of severe obsructive coronary artery disease.

Han Soo Kim,Jin Seung Choi,Dong Won Kang,Hong Won Yeon,Mi Hyun Choi,Doo Hwan Ji,Byung Chan Min,Soon Cheol Chung,Gye Rae Tack 대한인간공학회 2011 대한인간공학회 학술대회논문집 Vol.2011 No.5

Objective: The aim of this study is to quantitatively evaluate the effects of the secondary task during simulated driving using the variable indicating control of vehicle. Background: There are so many researches for simulated driving and performance. For instance, some researches show that the effects of cell phone conversations on simulated driving. Cell phone conversations impaired explicit recognition memory. Method: Participants included 50s taxi drivers; 15 males and 15 females. All subjects were instructed to keep a distance (30m) from the car ahead and a constant speed (80km/hr or 100km/hr). Sending text message (STM) and Searching navigation (SN) were selected as the secondary task. Experiment consisted of rest for 3min., driving alone for 1min. and driving with secondary task for 1 min.. We were analyzed anterior-posterior coefficient of variation (APCV) and medial-lateral coefficient of variation (MLCV). Results: APCV was increased by 175.4% in STM and 223.8% in SN at 80km/hr. MLCV was increased by 242.3% in STM and 323.4% in SN at 100km/hr. There was no significant difference between genders. Conclusion: Consequently, performing secondary task during driving impaired the control of vehicle.
