Background : In recent years, gonorrhea has been panedemic and remains one of the most commom STDs in the world, especially in developing countries. Objective & Methods: For the detection of a more effective therapeutic regimen and assessing the prevalence of PPNG, we have been trying to study the patients who have visited the VD Clinic of Choong-Ku Public Health Center in Seoul since 1980 by means of the chromogenic cephalosporin method. Results: In 1996, 139 strains of N. gonorrhoeae were isolated, among which 53(39.0%) were PPNG. Conclusion: Our results suggests that after a peak of 74.3% in 1993, the prevalence of PPNG in Seoul is gradually declining.

Hyun Soo Kim, Jong Woon Cheon, Min Su Kim, Chang Kil Jung, Kyung Rok Kim, Jae Won Choi, Dong Woo Kang and Sun Young Kim1 Departments of Internal Medicine and Pathology1, DongKang Medical Center, Ulsan, Korea Actinomycosis is a chronic suppurative disease and caused by Actinomycosis species, principally Actinomyces israelii, which are part of the normal inhabitant on the mucous membrane of the oropharynx, gastrointestinal tract, and urogenital tract. It usually affects cervicofacial, thoracic and abdominal tissue. Cervicofacial type has the highest percentage of occurrence with 50%. Actinomycosis frequently occurs following dental extraction, jaw surgery, chronic infection or poor oral hygiene. It may also be considered as an opportunistic infection in immunocompromised patients such as malignancy, human immunodeficiency virus infection, diabetes mellitus, steroid usage or alcoholism. But, actinomycosis rarely occurs in adults with normal immunity and rare in the esophagus. We report an unusual case of esophageal actinomycosis which was developed in a patient with normal immunity and improved by therapy with intravenous penicillin G followed oral amoxicillin, and we also reviewed the associated literature.

Background and Purposes: Over the past three decades, numerous studies performed in Korea have reported that job stress is a determinant risk factor for chronic diseases and work disability. Every society has its own culture and occupational climate particular to their organizations, and hence experiences different occupational stress. An occupational stress measurement tool therefore needs to be developed to estimate it objectively. The purpose of this study is to develop and standardize the Korean Occupational Stress Scale (KOSS) which is considered to be unique and specific occupational stressors in Korean employees. Subjects and Methods: Data were obtained from the National Study for Development and Standardization of Occupational Stress (NSDSOS Project: 2002-2004). A total of 12,631 employees from a nationwide sample proportional to the Korean Standard Industrial Classification and the Korean Standard Occupational Classification were administered. The KOSS was developed for 2 years (2002-2004). In the first year, we collected 255 items from the most popular job stress measurement tools such as JCQ, ERI, NIOSH and OSI, and 44 items derived from the a qualitative study (depth interview). Forty-three items of KOSS, in the second year, were retained for use in the final version of the KOSS by using Delphi and factor analysis. Items were scored using conventional 1-2-3-4 Likert scores for the response categories. Results: We developed eight subscales by using factor analysis and validation process: physical environment (3 items), job demand (8 items), insufficient job control (5 items), interpersonal conflict (4 items), job insecurity (6 items), organizational system (7 items), lack of reward (6 items), and occupational climate (4 items). Together they explained 50.0% of total variance. Internal consistency alpha scores were ranged from 0.51 to 0.82. Twenty-four items of the short form of the KOSS (KOSS-SF) were also developed to estimate job stress in the work setting. Because the levels of the subscales of occupational stress were gender dependent, gender-specific standard norms for both the 43-item full version and the 24-item short form using a quartile for the subscales of KOSS were presented. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that KOSS might be an appropriate measurement scale to estimate occupational stress of Korean employees. Further and more detailed study needs to be conducted to improve the validity of this scale.

We introduced mechanical stimuli and micro patterned substrate with micro fibers to investigate the effects of those on neurite outgrowth along with nerve growth factor (NGF) in vitro. Micro fiber substrates were fabricated using an electros pinning process. And PC-12 cells cultured on substrates were simulated with newer growth factor and laminar flow shear stress in a fluid flow system. The results suggest that micro fiber substrates and fluid-induced shear stress are promising for simulating neuronal regeneration in a desired direction.

Background: Micafungin, a potent inhibitor of 1,3-β-D-glucan synthase, is a novel antifungal agent of the echinocandin class. In vitro study showed that micafungin was effective against Aspergillus species as well as Candida species, but clinical data on the prophylactic efficacy against invasive fungal infections (IFIs) other than candidiasis are still lacking. Materials and Methods: We identified 60 consecutive adult hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) recipients who received at least 3 doses of micafungin during neutropenic period. Micafungin was started as an alternative in patients who were intolerant or had adverse events (AEs) to primary prophylactic antifungal agents. We retrospectively reviewed the medical records and analyzed the efficacy and safety of micafungin for prophylaxis against IFIs. Results: The patients either had autologous (n=9) or allogeneic (n=51: 1 syngeneic, 24 sibling, 26 unrelated donor) HSCT. Itraconazole oral solution (n=58) was the most frequently used first line antifungal agent for prophylaxis and was administered for median 11 days. The most frequent cause of switch to micafungin was vomiting (n=42). The duration of neutropenia and micafungin administration was median 13 and 12 days, respectively. A successful outcome was achieved in 45 (75%) patients. Empirical antifungal therapy was initiated in 13 (22%) patients. There were 2 cases (3.3%) of breakthrough fungal infections which comprised a probable invasive pulmonary aspergillosis and a possible invasive fungal sinusitis. There was no case of invasive candidiasis. A total of 53 (88%) patients experienced at least one AE regardless of causality during micafungin administration. The most frequent AEs were hypokalemia, vomiting, diarrhea, and elevated serum aspartate aminotransferase or alanine aminotransferase. Among the aforementioned AEs, only 1 case of diarrhea could be classified as a probable relation with micafungin when causality was assessed. There was no AEs that caused discontinuation of micafungin. Conclusions: Micafungin seems to be a safe and effective agent for prophylaxis of IFIs including aspergillosis as well as candidiasis in HSCT recipients. However, further large, prospective, and randomized comparative studies are warranted for aspergillosis.

When large scales DG are connected to the distribution system of unidirectional power currents, bi-directional power currents are formed, making it impossible to use conventional overcurrent protection methods alone to detect and isolate fault sections for ground and short-circuit faults. To solve these problems, this study proposed the method of protection against single-line-ground fault of common neutral line multi-contact local power distribution system using distance relay and directional relay. The proposed protection method was applied to the common neutral multi-ground distribution system to validate the protection against single-line-ground fault through the PSCAD/EMTDC software package and efectively detect and isolate only the zone of single-line-ground fault without malfunctions.

Recent advances of neuroimaging and electrophysiological monitoring technique have contributed in improving the surgical outcome of frontal lobe epilepsy. The authors have analysed 36 consecutive cases of intractable frontal lobe epilepsy that were treated at our institute between September. 1992 and December, 1995 to determine the clinical, electrophysiological, and neuroimaging characteristics as well as to delineate the efficacy of surgical treatment in improving the seizure outcome. The patients consisted of 19 males and 17 females. The mean age of the seizure onset and the mean duration of epilepsy were 14.9 and 11.6 years, respectively. Magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) showed no lesion in 9 patients and pathological lesions in 27 patients. The types of the lesions observed included primary brain tumor, mostly low-grade glioma in 10 patients, cortical dysplasia in 4, posttraumatic scar in 4, neocortical gliosis in 3, cyst in 3, and postencephalitic atrophy in 3. Intracranial recordings were performed in 23 cases to determine the epileptogenic zone. The surgical outcome was graded according to Engle’s Classification as Class A in 20 patients. Class B in 2, Class C in 9, and Class D in 5. The surgical outcome was promising regardless of the presence or the absence of the lesion on MRI, invasive recording, age of seizure onset, and duration of epilepsy.

Most patients with aplastic anemia who do not respond to immunosuppressive treatment or are not candidates for bone marrow transplantation die of infection or bleeding. The neutropenia in acute leukemia, aplastic anemia, or occurring subsequently to chemotherapy and bone marrow transplantation increases susceptibility to infection. In general, the number of infectious episodes correlate with the degree and duration of neutropenia. Global immunosuppression produced by conditioning for bone marrow transplantation or graft-versus-host disease, is associated with unusual bacterial and fungal pathogens, or serious viral and protozoan infections. In addition, repeated treatment with broad-spectrum antibiotics is associated with the emergence of resistant organisms and fungal diseases because of the altered microbial microenvironment of the host. The incidence of invasive fungal infection caused by Saccharomycetes eerevisiae in immunosuppressed patients is very rare, compared with that of infection by candida or aspcrgillus species. Cases of Saccharomycetes cerevisiae fungemia occurring in the course of treatment with broad-spectrum antibiotics are reported in patients with extensive burn or with prosthetic valve endocarditis. We experienced a case of urinary tract infection by Saccharomycetes cerevisiae in a 27-year old female patient with severe aplastic anemia. We report the case with a review of relevant literatures.

시상하부-뇌하수체질환의 기저질환에 따른 종합적 뇌하수체전엽 자극검사의 진단적 가치를 알아보고자 81례의 뇌하수체 기능부전증환자를 대상으로 시상하부질환군과 Sheehan증후군, 말단비대증과 프로랙틴종, 그리고 뇌하수체선종에서 시야장애가 동반된 군과 장애가 없는 군으로 나누고 기능검사의 결과를 비교하였다. 1. Sheehan증후군 15례 가운데 GH 및 cortisol결핍이 전례(각각 100%)에서 FSH, LH 및 TSH결핍이 11∼12례(73∼80%)에서 관찰되었고 13례(86%)에서는 TRH에 대한 PRL분비증가가 저하 또는 소실되었다. 두개인두종 10례를 포함한 시상하부질환 14례 가운데 12례(86%)는 PRL의 기저지가 비정상직으로 증가되어 있었으며 TRH자극에 대해 PRL분비 증가가 11례(79%)에서 둔화되어 있었다. GH분비능도 11례(79%)에서 저하되었으며 그 밖의 cortisol, LH, TSH, FSH의 순으로 분비능이 저하되어 있었으나 그 빈도는 Sheehan증후군에 비해 전반적으로 낮았다. 2. 말단비대증 18례 가운데 14례(78%)에서 GH기저치가 비정상적으로 증가되어 있었고 13례(72%)는 저혈당자극에 대해 정상적인 GH의 증가를 보였으며 8례(44%)에서 고프로랙틴 혈증이 동반되었다. 프로랙틴종 18례 가운데 전례(100%)에서 PRL기저치가 증가되었고 13례(72%)에서 TRH에 대한 PRL의 증가반응이 둔화되었다. LH, FSH, cortisol 및 TSH분비능의 장애는 말단비대증군에서 프로랙틴종에 비해 다소 높은 빈도를 보이는 경향이었다. 3. 뇌하수체선종 가운데 시야장애가 동반된 21례에서 시야장애가 없는 23례에 비해 GH, cortisol및 LH의 분비반응이 저하된 빈도가 다소 높은 경향이었다. 이상의 결과로 보아 종합적 뇌하수체전엽 기능검사는 시상하부-뇌하수체질환의 기저질환을 진단하는데 중요한 정보를 제공할 수 있다고 생각한다. The combined stimulation test using TRH, LHRH and insulin has allowed investigation of the reserve of all pituitary tropic hormones under physiological and pathological conditions. To evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of this test for differentiating the underlying causes of hypopituitarism, we analyzed retrospectively the results of these tests done in 81 patients with proven hypothalamo-pituitary disorders. 1. In 15 patients with Sheehan's syndrome as a typical type of primary hypopituitarism, responses of both GH and cortisol to insulin-induced hypoglycemia were decreased in 15 cases all (100% in both) and of FSH, LH and TSH in 11 to 12 cases(73-80%). Incremental response of prolactin(PRL) to TRH was diminished or absent in 13 cases(86%). In 14 patients with hypothalamic diseases, including 10 cases of craniopharyn-gioma, as a representative secondary hypopituitarism, the basal PRL levels were abnormally elevated in 12 cases (86%) and both responses of PRL to TRH and of GH to hypoglycemia were blunted in 11 cases (79% in both). The frequency of impaired cortisol secretion was 50%, followed by LH, TSH and FSH secretion : overall frequency much lower than in Sheehan's syndrome. 2. In 18 acromegalics with pituitary adenoma, basal GH levels were abnormally elevated in 14 cases(78%) and incremental responses of GH to hypoglycemia were found in 13(72%). Hyperprolactinemia was accompanied in 8 (44%). In 18 patients with prolactinoma, basal PRL levels were moderately to markedly elevated in all of them(100%) and responses of PRL to TRH were blunted in 13(72%). The frequency of impaired secretion of LH, FSH, cortisol and TSH was slightly higher in acromegalics than in patients with prolactinoma. 3. The frequency of impaired secretion of GH, cortisol and LH tended to be slightly higher in patients with pituitary adenoma associated with visual field defect than those without visual field defect. These results suggest that the combined pituitary stimulation test will give us some of reliable information for evaluating the underlying causes of hypopituitarism.
