Background: Solar urticaria (SU) is an uncommon type of photodermatoses characterized by erythematous wheal with pruritus after sunlight exposure, which shows a female predominance. Only a few studies to analyze the clinical features of SU were reported in Asia. Objectives: We aimed to analyze the clinical and photobiological characteristics of SU in Korea. Methods: We retrospectively investigated the medical records of patients with SU who visited the department of dermatology, Konkuk university medical center from January 2005 to January 2020. Results: Of a total of 44 patients, 36 (81.8%) were male and 8 (18.2%) were female. The mean age at onset was 17.6 years (range, 5-47) and the mean threshold time was 19.7 minutes. Among 32 patients who underwent phototesting, the action spectrum most commonly implicated was ultraviolet (UV) A only in 12 (37.5%), and then visible light (415nm) only was responsible for SU in 8 (25.0%). Three patients (9.4%) were induced by both UVA and visible light (415nm). Even 4 patients (12.5%) were triggered by only natural sunlight. Serum immunoglobulin E levels were measured in 33 patients, and 17 (51.5%) showed values higher than normal. The treatment most widely used were oral antihistamine (43.2%), followed by phototherapy (13.6%). Conclusion: SU is a rare photodermatosis in Korea, which shows a male preponderance. In this study, UVA and visible light (415nm) were predominant action spectrum of SU.

In Korea, there has been an increasing concern on rickettsiosis as one of most prevailing acute febrile illness, since murine typhus and scrub typhus had not been reported for 2 decades until 1986 and thereafter a few studies were reported on these diseases. A microimmunofluorescence test was used to study antibodies to R. typhi and R. tsutsugamushi in urban and rural inhabitants students, and patiants suspected of leptospirosis or rickettsiosis from 1986 to 1987 in Kangwon-do Korea. 43% of inhabitatnts and 17% of students reacted to R. typhi. Only one inhabitant among inhabitants and students reacted to R. tsutsugamushi. Among 169 patients, 43(25%) reacted to R. typhi, 38(22%) to R. tsutsugamushi and 25(15%) to Leptospira interrogans. Sexual rate(male; female) in murine typhus was 1.7:1, that in scrub typhus was 1:2.2 and that in leptospirosis was 1.5;1. The age ditribution of patients with murine typhus was generally even over 20 years old. But 71% of patients with scrub typhus were over 40 years old. Scrub typhus was most prevailing in female over 40 years old. Murine typhus was relatively more prevailing in Choonchun city than rural area as compared with scrub typhus and leptospirosis. Most of scrub typhus occurred in rural area. Most of each disease occurred between September and November (murine typhus; 93%, scrub typhus; 95%, leptospirosis; 84%) with a peak in October. Scrub typhus considerably occurred not only October(58%) but also November(28%). All patients with scrub typhus were immediately diagnosed by antibody when they visited hospital. 53% of patients with murine typhus were diagnosed when they visited hospital within 7 days after onset of illness, and others were done by second sera obtained 8 days after. The patients in whom IgM was seronegative but antibodies of other class were seropsitive by 20 days after onset of illness, were 14% in murine typhus and 26% in scrub typhus. At least those patients were considered to be infected second. Murine typhus and scrub typhus were suggested to be endemic diseases in Kangwon-do as antibodies of inhabitants and characteristics of patients' sera were considered. By serologic finding of patients with scrub typhus in Kangwon-do, Gilliam was 59'% of etiologic strain of scrub typhus, Karp was 41q% and Kato was none. Most scrub typhus occurred in person to be related to agriculture, but murine typhus was not related to job and occurred more in small city than rural area. Rash was scarcely detected in murine typhus and scrub typhus, and eschar was in 50% of scrub typhus only. Serum transaminase elevated in many patients with scrub typhus and murine typhus. Leukocytosis and abnormal finding in chest X-ray were showed in some patients with scrub typhus but were scarcely in murine typhus.

The prestressed concrete girder bridges have been used widely at the domestic national road and highway because it is great in the functional and economical efficiency. It has also the advantage of convenience of design and construction due to using standard sections. However it could be easily verified that previous standard section of PSC girder is excessively designed, which has much more redundancy than is necessary against design loads. Therefore it would greatly influence on economic efficiency for domestic demands, if a section of PSC girder became more economical with satisfying all design criteria. Thus the optimum design for the section of PSC girder using an optimum design method has been performed to examine more effective and economic section than previous standard one.

Corticai Dysplasia(CD) is increasingly recognized as a cause of intractable epilepsy since it can be easily diagnosed with high resolution magnetic resonance imaging(MRI). We analyzed 24 consecutive cases with cortical dysplasia who underwent resective surgery at our institute between September. 1992 and December. 1995. MRI was demonstrated to be a decisive tool to identify CD in 16 cases(66.7%). However, the remaining 8 cases(93.9%) were confirmed to have CD based on histological examination. Location of the lesion included temporal(n=9), central(n=5), multilobar(n=5), and frontal(n=5). Intracranial EEG recording was performed to delineate the epileptogenic zons in 16 cases : subdural grid(10 cases) and depth electrode(6 cases). Resection was performed in temporal(n=9), frontal(n=7), central(n=5). parietal(n=1), and muitilobar(n=1). Complete resection was possible in 15(62.5%) and partial resection in 9(37.5%). Histological examination revealed dyslamination of cortical layers only(n=9), additional dysplastic neurons(n=7), and additional balloon cells(n=8). Surgical outcome was graded as seizure free(n=14 : 58.3%), rare seizures(n=3 : 12.5%). <50% reduction of seizure frequency(n=2 : 8%), and no change(n=5 : 20.8%) after mean follow-up of 12.7 months. The most influencing factor on the surgical outcome was the degree of completeness of resection(p<0.05). However. detectability of CD on MRI, severity of histological findings, age of seizure onset, and duration of seizure were not significantly related with the surgical outcome High suspicion is required to detect the CD among the patients with intractable epilepsy and surgical strategies should be well-planned to improve the surgical outcome in the patients with CD.

연구목적: 본 연구는 상아질 접착제의 잔류 용매가 접착 효율에 미치는 영향을 평가하고자 하였다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 본 연구에서는 5세대 2단계 산부식형 접착제와 7세대 단일과정 자가부식형 접착제를 사용하였다. 상아질 접착제의 증발률과 전환률, 적용 후 용매의 공기건조 방법에 따른 미세인장결합강도를 측정하였으며 접착 계면을 FE-SEM을 이용하여 관찰하였다. 결과: 1. 시간에 따라 접착제의 증발률은 증가하나 접착제의 종류에 따라 증가 양상이 서로 달랐다. 2. 대부분 전환률은 증발률에 비례하는 경향을 나타내었다. 3. 공기건조 방법에 따라 결합강도는 대부분 under군, control군, over군 순으로 증가하는 양상을 나타내었다. 4. FE-SEM에서 아세톤을 용매로 사용하는 접착제는 공기건조 방법에 따라 droplet이나 gap이 관찰되었다. 결론: 상아질 접착제의 잔류 용매는 접착 효율에 부정적인 영향을 미치기 때문에, 상아질 접착제의 선택과 사용 시 용매의 종류와 특징에 대한 적절한 이해가 필요할 것이다. Objectives: The purpose of this study is to evaluate bonding efficacy by means of measuring the effect of remained solvent on Degree of conversion(DC) and μTBS and FE-SEM examination. Materials and Methods: Two 2-step total etching adhesives and two single-step self etching adhesives were used in this study. First, volume weight loss of 4 dentin adhesives were measured using weighting machine in process of time in normal conditions and calculate degree of evaporation (DE). Reaction/reference intensity ratio were measured using micro-Raman spectroscopy and calculate DC according to DE. Then 2 experimental groups were prepared according to air-drying methods (under, over) and control group was prepared to manufacturer's instruction. Total 12 groups were evaluated by means of micro tensile bond strength and FE-SEM examination. Results: Degree of evaporation (DE) was increased as time elapsed but different features were observed according to the kind of solvents. Acetone based adhesive showed higher DE than ethanol and butanol based adhesive. Degree of conversion (DC) was increased according to DE except for S³ bond. In μTBS evaluation, bond strength was increased by additional air-drying. Large gaps and droplets were observed in acetone based adhesives by FE-SEM pictures. Conclusions: Additional air-drying is recommended for single-step self etching adhesive but careful consideration is required for 2-step total etching adhesive because of oxygen inhibition layer. Evaporation method is carefully chose and applied according to the solvent type.

This study is for the great quantity use of fly-ash. For the producing of high volume concrete from the use of fly-ash, the method of replacement between bonding agents and fine aggregate by fly-ash at the slt was used that the adiabatic temperature rise of concrete about the mass member which bad been produced by the method that was mentioned before, and the hydration heat of the core test pieces in concrete was measured. Also the core test pieces which were replaced with fly-ash was studied by the compressive strength's comparison between standard care test pieces and core test pieces. In the case of mass test pieces, hydration heat and the time to reach the highest temperature were decreased by an increase in replaced fly-ash's amounts of concrete. In addition, among the test pieces having the same amounts of concrete, the test pieces having more replaced amounts of fly-ash's fine aggregate showed higher hydration heat and the increased time to reach the highest temperature. Compressive strength was also increased by hydration heat's decrease according to fly-ash replacement. Replacement of fly-ash was more effective in high temperature environment.

Aspergillosis of the maxillary sinus was rare disease, but it was increasing tendency with overuse antibiotics, streoid hormones, and anticanncerous agents. The clinical features and X-ray findings are similar to chronic suppurative paranasal sinusitis. Aspergillosis of the maxillary siuses may occur as a chronic diseae in an otherwise healthy person. This infection is usually confined to a single paranasal sinus, the maxillary antrum, though it can involve the orbit and may initiate with findings of proptosis and decreased vision. The disease is characterized by a wide range of initial symptoms, and should be considered as a possible diagnosis in sinusitis refractory to antibiotics and antral lavage. The choice of treatment of this disease is radical surgery and adjunctive systemic antifungal therapy. We experienced a case of right maxillary sinus aspergillosis in a 34 years old male who has dull pain on Rt. zygoma area, and a case of left maxillary sinus aspergillosis in a 30 years old male who had been suffered from nasal stiffness and frontal headache for 3-4 years. We reported two cases with review of literature.

본 연구는 도파민D5 수용체 유전자와 정신분열병 병인과의 상관성을 밝히기 위하여 한국인 정신분열병 환자군 100명과 정상대조군 100명에서 다형성의 분포를 중합효소연쇄반응을 이용하여 연합연구를 시행하였다. 도파민 D5 수용체 유전자의 대립유전자는(CT/GT/GA)n의 반복으로 구성된 154, 152, 150, 148, 146, 144, 142, 140, 138, 134염기 쌍을 가진 11가지 종류였고 환자군과 정상대조군사이에 대립유전자의 분포는 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다. 각각의 대립유전자 빈도는 환자군에서 대립유전자 A10이 유의하게 감소되어 있었다. 환자군과 정상대조군의 유전자형 분포는 두 군간에 유의한 차이는 없었다. 본 연구의 결과는 도파민 D5 수용체 유전자가 한국인 정신분열병 발생의 취약성에 기여할 가능성이 있다는 것을 제시하지만 본 연구의 결과만으로는 이 유전자부위를 정신분열병의 유전적 결정인자로 결론 내리기는 어려우며 앞으로 더 많은 연구대상을 이용하여 이 도파민 D5 수용체 유전자부위에 대해 본 연구결과를 확인하는 연구가 계속적으로 이루어져야 할 것으로 생각된다. Objective : This study was performed to define the genetic relationship between the microsatellite (CT/GT/GA)n polymorphism for the dopamine D5 receptor gene and schizophrenia. An association study in 100 schizophrenic patients and 100 normal controls of Korean was made by means of using polymerase chain reaction. Results : The microsatellite(D5(CT/GT/GA)n) had 11 alleles. These was a significant difference in the allele distribution between schizophrenic and normal controls(p〈0.05). In schizophrenic patients, the frequency of allele A10 was decreased. As to the genotype distribution, there was no difference in both groups. Conclusions : This finding suggests that dopamine D5 gene is likely to be related to the development of schizophrenia in Korea but with only this result, we cannot come to the conclusion that this genetic locus is the genetic determinant of schizophrenia. Further studies of dopamine D5 receptor genetic locus that can confirm this result should be made.
