목적 : 호중구감소성 발열 환자에게 경험적으로 teicoplanin을 투여할 때의 효과를 알아보고자 전향적 연구를 시행하였다. 방법 : 2003년 7월부터 12월까지 가톨릭조혈모세포이식센터에 입원하여 항암치료 혹은 조혈모세포이식을 시행하고 호중구감소성 발열이 있는 환자 중 초기 항균요법에 반응이 없어 경험적 teicoplanin 투여가 필요한 49명을 대상으로 A, B 제조회사에서 제공한 teicoplanin을 무작위로 어느 한 쪽 치료군에 배정하여 투여하였다. 용량은 첫날 400㎎ 부하용량을 정맥내 bolus로 투여하고 매 24시간마다 200㎎ 유지용량을 투여하였다. 결과 : A군 27명, B군 22명이 연구에 참여하였고 대부분의 환자가 신독성이 있는 약제를 병용하고 있었다. A군 8명, B군 7명에서 그람양성균이 동정되었고, teicoplanin에 대한 내성률은 A군 22.2%, B군 28.6%로 유의한 차이는 없었다(P=1.00; 0.61<95%CI<1.95). 미생물학적 확인 감염이 있었던 환자 중 평균 53.3%에서 완치 혹은 개선의 반응이 있었고 양 군간 유의한 차이는 없었다(A군 4명 [50.0%], B군 4명 [57.1%], P=1.00; 0.29<95%CI<2.60). 미생물학적 제거율은 평균 62.5% (A군 55.6%, B군 71.4%)이었고 그 외 미생물학적 효과는 A군에서 제거 후 재발 2명(22.2%), 내성 2명(22.2%)이었고 B군에서 각각 0명(0.0%), 2명(28.6%)이었으며 양 군간 유의한 차이는 없었다(P=0.28). 발열기간(P=0.89), teicoplanin 사용기간(P=0.47) 및 전체적인 사망률(P=1.00; 0.78<95%CI<1.24)도 양 군간 유의한 차이는 없었다. 이상반응 중 신독성은 16.3% (A군 18.5%, B군 13.6%)에서 나타났고 양 군에 차이는 없었으며(P=0.72; 0.39<95%CI<3.51), 신기능 이상과 관련있는 약제를 적어도 2개 이상 병용하고 있었다. 피부발진은 A군에서 1명, B군에서 3명 발생하였다(P=0.31; 0.93<95%CI<1.34). 결론 : 호중구감소성 발열환자에게 teicoplanin을 투여하였을 때 임상적 반응률은 평균 53.3%(A군 50.5%, B군 57.1%), 미생물학적 제거율은 평균 62.5%(A군 55.6%, B군 71.4%)이었고 두 제조회사간 차이가 없었고 이상반응도 양 군간 차이가 없었다. 앞으로 국내 호중구감소증 환자에서의 teicoplanin의 적정 용량, 용법 등을 알기 위한 집단 약동학 등의 연구를 시행할 예정이다. Background : This study was done to elucidate the efficacy of teicoplanin as the empirical treatment for febrile neutropenia. Methods : Patients were randomized to two groups according to pharmaceutical company (company A or B). Total of 49 patients (A, 27; B, 22) with neutropenic fever were studied prospectively for 6 months (Jul. 2003-Dec. 2003). Patients received 400 mg i.v. once, then 200 mg i.v. once daily. Results : Groups were matched for all demographic variables. Most of the patients were concurrently receiving nephrotoxic drugs. Gram positive microorganisms were isolated in 8 patients for A and 7 patients for B. Resistance rate against teicoplanin was 22.2% in A and 28.6% in B (P=1.0; 0.61 < 95% confidence interval [Cl] < 1.95). Among the patients with microbiologically documented infection, clinical cure or improvement was seen in 4 (50%) of 8 patients for A and 4 (57.1%) of 7 patients for B (P=1.00; 0.29 <95%CI <2.60). Bacteriologic efficacy was assessed as follows; elimination in 5 (55.6%), elimination with relapse in 2 (22.2%), resistance in 2 (22.2%) out of 9 gram-positive bacteria for A and 5 (51.4%), 0 (0.0%), 2 (28.6%) out of 7 bacteria for B, respectively (P=Q.28). There were no significant differences in duration of fever, duration of use of teicoplanin, and overall mortality. The incidence of nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity was not significant. Conclusion : For using teicoplanin as the empirical therapy for febrile neutropenia, the rate of clinical, microbiological response, and nephrotoxicity was 53.3%, 62.5%, and 16.3% respectively with no significant differences between the 2 preparations of teicoplanin. Supplementary evaluation on the adequate dose and duration of teicoplanin may be required.

시험관내 심내막염 모델에서 Methicillin 내성 포도구균에 대한 Vancomycin, Arbekacin, Gentamicin 단독 혹은 병합효과

이동건,전혜선,임동석,최수미,최정현,유진홍,신완식,강문원 대한감염학회 2003 감염과 화학요법 Vol.35 No.3

목적 : Methicillin 내성 포도구균(methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus, MRSA)은 병원감염의 중요한 원인균으로 vancomycin이 선택약제이다. 그러나 심내막염 등의 중증감염에서는 vancomycin의 치료실패와 함께 최근 내성균도 증가하고 있어 vancomycin을 대체할 수 있는 항균제와 보다 효과적인 항균요법의 개발이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 사람의 환경과 유사한 시험관내 감염 모델을 적용하여 MRSA 치료를 위한 vancomycin, arbekacin, gentamicin의 단독 및 병합효과를 비교하였다. 방법 : 임상에서 분리된 MRSA 2균주(GRI 53, gentamicin 내성 : GS171, gentamicin 감수성)로 fibrin clot을 제작하여 시험관내 심내막염 모델을 만들어 vancomycin, arbekacin, gentamicin을 단독 혹은 병합주입하였다. 반감기와 최고 및 최저농도는 사람의 약동학을 기준으로 하였다. Vancomycin은 6, 12, 24시간마다 주입하거나 24시간 연속주입하였고 arbekacin은 12, 24시간마다, gentamicin은 8, 24시간마다 주입하였다. 병합주입의 경우 vancomycin은 12시간마다, gentamicin, arbekacin은 24시간마다 투여하였다. 각 투여군의 살균효과는 0, 8, 24, 32, 48, 72시간째의 fibrin clot내 집락수로 측정하였다. 결과 : GRI153에 gentamicin을 주입한 군 이외의 모든 실험군에서 대조군에 비해 의미있게 fibrin clot내 집락수가 감소하였다(P<0.001). Vancomycin과 arbekacin 단독주입군내서 8시간째의 집락수는 GRI153보다 GS171에서 의미있게 낮았고(P=0.02), GS171에 arbekacin 12시간마다 투여한 군의 집락수가 가장 낮았다(P=0.01). 72시간째 집락수는 균주의 종류나 vancomycin 혹은 arbekacin의 투여간격에 따른 차이가 없었다. GRI153에서 vancomycin과 arbekacin의 병합주입군은 24시간까지 상가작용이 있었으나 vancomycin과 gentamicin 병합주입에서는 무관작용이었고 GS171에서도 72시간 동안 무관작용을 보였다. 또한 전 실험기간 동안 내성균은 발현되지 않았다. 결론 : 시험관내 심내막염 모델에서 MRSA에 대한 arbekacin의 항균력은 vancomycin과 유사하여 단독주입이 가능함을 시사한다. Gentamicin 내성균주의 경우 두가지 항균제의 병합주입으로 24시간까지 상가작용을 보이고 있으나 임상에 적용하기 위해서는 추가연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다. Background : Glycopeptide has been used for the one-and-only treatment of choice in methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection, but its exclusive use for the MRSA infection has led to the increased risk of glycopeptide-resistance. To find an alternative (s), we employed an in vitro infective endocarditis model (IVIEM) to compare the efficacy of vancomycin (VCM). arbekacin (ABK), and gentamicin (GM) alone or in combination. Methods : Using two strains of clinically isolated MRSA, one GM susceptible (GS171) and the other GM resistant (GR153), fibrin clots were prepared and suspended in IVIEM. Antibiotics were added as a bolus to simulate human pharmacokinetics of regimens, including q 6 h, q 12 h, q 24 h, or continuous infusion with VCM, q 12h or q 24 h with ABK, and q 8 h or q 24 h with GM. In cases of combination, regimens were VCM q 12 h plus ABK q 24 h, and VCM q 12 h plus GM q 24 h. Fibrin clots were removed from each model at 0, 8, 24, 32, 48. and 72 h, and the bacterial densities (in CFU/g) were determined. Results : At 8 hour, the colony counts of GS171 were lower than those of GR153 (P=0.02), and the lowest with the ABK q12h against GS171 (P=0.01). At 72 hour, monotherapy with ABK or VCM produced same degree of bacterial reductions in IVIEM, regardless of dosing frequency or GM-resistance. In the case of GM-resistance, combination of VCM and ABK did show additive effect until 24 hours, although VCM and GM showed no indifference during all the experiments. Development of resistance during experiment was not observed with any regimens. Conclusions : Our data suggest that ABK monotherapy could be used as an alternative to VCM even in the treatment of GM-resistant staphylococcal endocarditis. Further studies will clinical trials are warranted to evaluate the additive effect of VCM and ABK.

본 조사상에 있어서는 외국인 유학생의 한국어 해득의 어려움으로 인한 난점은 물론, 그들을 관할하고 있는 공식기관이 거의 없었으므로 조사대상자 선정 및 질문지 배부와 회수에 있어서 어려운 점이 많았다. 응답태도에 있어서 일부 동양인의 무성의한 태도는 서양인과 눈에 띄게 대조적이었다. 260명의 외국인 유학생을 화교를 제외한 60명 가운데에서 23명을 조사대상자로 하였다. sample size가 소규모적이어서 조사결과를 가지고 통계적 처리를 한다거나, 일반화할 수는 없고, case-study적인 방법으로 조사하였으므로다만 일차적인 조사의 성격을 띠게 되었다.

Transcatheter arterial radioembolization (TARE) with Yttrium-90 (90Y)-labeled microspheres has an emerging role in treatment of patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma. Although complication of TARE can be minimized by aggressive pre-evaluation angiography and preventive coiling of aberrant vessels, radioembolization-induced gastroduodenal ulcer can be irreversible and can be life threatening. Treatment of radioembolization-induced gastric ulcer is challenging because there is a few reported cases and no consensus for management. We report a case of severe gastric ulceration with bleeding that eventually required surgery due to aberrant deposition of microspheres after TARE. (Clin Mol Hepatol 2014;20:300-305)

Role of Hepatitis B Surface Antigen (HBsAg) in Identifying True Inactive HBsAg Carriers Infected With Genotype C Hepatitis B Virus

BACKGROUND:: Inactive and active phases of hepatitis B e antigen-negative chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection are diagnosed by serum HBV DNA levels, with cutoff at 2000 IU/mL. However, it is difficult to distinguish inactive carriers at a single time point because HBV DNA levels can transiently decrease to <2000 IU/mL even in noninactive carriers. GOALS:: We aimed to establish the role of serum hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) in identifying “true inactive carriers” among treatment-naive genotype C HBV-infected patients with low viremia. STUDY:: A total of 133 hepatitis B e antigen-negative carriers with serum HBV DNA levels of <2000 IU/mL and normal alanine aminotransferase levels were enrolled and followed up for >12 months. RESULTS:: Forty patients (30.1%) were classified as noninactive carriers (HBV DNA ≥2000 IU/mL and/or alanine aminotransferase >40 IU/L) during 12 months from enrollment. No baseline serum HBV DNA levels could identify true inactive carriers with 100% specificity, whereas baseline serum HBsAg levels (50 IU/mL) identified true inactive carriers with 100% specificity and 29% detection rate. Detection rate increased when different cutoff levels were applied to different age groups according to median age (46 y). It was comparable in both younger and older groups (37.2% vs. 38%) even when HBsAg cutoff level was increased in the former (400 vs. 50 IU/mL). Furthermore, none reversed to noninactive phase during long-term follow-up when these cutoff levels were applied. CONCLUSIONS:: Baseline serum HBsAg levels at a single time point can identify persistently true inactive carriers, with different cutoff levels according to age.

Development of a Reduction Algorithm of GEO Satellite Optical Observation Data for Optical Wide Field Patrol (OWL)

Sun-youp Park,Jin Choi1,Jung Hyun Jo,Ju Young Son,Yung-Sik Park,Hong-Suh Yim,Hong-Suh Yim,Hong-Kyu Moon,Young-Ho Bae,Jang-Hyun Park 한국우주과학회 2015 Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences Vol.32 No.3

An algorithm to automatically extract coordinate and time information from optical observation data of geostationary orbit satellites (GEO satellites) or geosynchronous orbit satellites (GOS satellites) is developed. The optical wide-field patrol system is capable of automatic observation using a pre-arranged schedule. Therefore, if this type of automatic analysis algorithm is available, daily unmanned monitoring of GEO satellites can be possible. For data acquisition for development, the COMS1 satellite was observed with 1-s exposure time and 1-m interval. The images were grouped and processed in terms of “action”, and each action was composed of six or nine successive images. First, a reference image with the best quality in one action was selected. Next, the rest of the images in the action were geometrically transformed to fit in the horizontal coordinate system (expressed in azimuthal angle and elevation) of the reference image. Then, these images were median-combined to retain only the possible non-moving GEO candidates. By reverting the coordinate transformation of the positions of these GEO satellite candidates, the final coordinates could be calculated.

Background/Aims: Gastric cancer is the leading malignancy in Korea and early detection through the health screening seems to be important. The aims of this study were to investigate the features of gastric neoplasms detected during screening, and to figure out the risk factors of these lesions. Methods: From October 2003 to September 2005, subjects who visited Seoul National University Hospital Healthcare System Gangnam Center for health check-up were included in the study. The program included a questionnaire and tests including anti-Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) antibody, esophagogastroduodenoscopy or double contrast upper gastrointestinal study. To figure out the risk factors, an age and gender-matched, four-fold sized control group was selected from the subjects. Results: Of 25, 432 subjects, 122 cases of gastric neoplasms were detected including 61 adenocarcinoma (45 early gastric cancers), 53 adenoma, 7 mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma, and one metastatic cancer. There was no significant statistical difference in basal characteristics of the subjects between gastric adenocarcinoma and adenoma. When comparing with the control group those without gastric neoplasms, smoking history, family history of stomach cancer, and H. pylori seropositivity were found to be significant risk factors for gastric neoplasms. Metabolic syndrome was more prevalent in adenoma than in the control (p<0.05). Conclusions: The health screening may be beneficial in early detection of gastric cancer. In addition, metabolic syndrome might be related with gastric adenoma. (Gut and Liver 2007;1:33-39)
