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.

Biodegradable retinal fixation devices obtain mechnical fixation of the retina with desirable chorioretinal scarring and with the potential for local, sustained release of antimetabolites and steroids to inhibit proliferative vitreoretinopathy. We manufactured a biodegradable retinal tack with barb that was designed in order to prevent intrusion from implantation of retinal tacks. This study was carried to evaluate the efficacy for retinal fixation and the capability for sustained release of drugs with a newly designed biodegradable retinal tack Biodegradable retinal tacks were made of polymers of glycolic acids and were designed with barbs in a shape to prevent the disinsertion. Biodegradale retinal tacks are divided into 3 parts, a conical portion that is inserted into the sclera, a cylinder portion that remains in the vitreous, and a neck portion between the pin and the cylinder. The tapered conical end was manufactured to allow easy insertion through the retina and choroid into the sclera. A cylinder portion was manufactured with a tapered angle that fixes firmly into the orifice of 19 gauge spinal needle. A neck portion, 0.4 mm in diameter, was designed to prevent disinsertion from following implantation of retinal tack. The applicator was a 19 gauge spinal needle and its orifice was prepared to 15°angle to accept the tapered cylinder portion of the retinal tack. The retinal tacks, secured in the needles, were passed through the formed vitreous and inserted into the retina, choroid, and sclera and were released by pushing the internal needle, usually within 2-3mm of the medullary ray of the posterior rabbit retina A retinal tack was placed in each of 8 pigmented rabbit eyes. Slit-lamp biomicroscopy, indirect ophthalmoscopy and fundus photography were performed periodically from 1 day to 8 weeks after surgery. Eight eyes were enucleated and studied by light microscopy at 8 weeks. Biomicroscopic evaluation of the animals revealed edemas adjacent to the retinal surfaces immediately after insertion of the biodegradable retinal tacks in all the animals. These edemas disappeared after 1 week. The first noticeable change in the size of retinal tacks was shown after 2weeks. The size of the retinal tacks gradually got smaller, decreasing to about one-half at 4 weeks and about one-third at 8 weeks. All retinal tacks remained in inserted places without any movement for an 8 week period. On light microscopy, epiretinal proliferations were seen to extend into the vitreous cavity. Cellular capsules that lined the inner aspect of the scleral defect caused by tack insertion were found. However the adjacent retina had a normal cytologic appearance and architecture in all specimens. We manufactured a biodegradable retinal tack that is designed to prevent intrusion from implantation of retinal tacks. All biodegradable retinal tacks reduce in size with time, but no retinal tacks extruded from the inserted place. The newly designed biodegradable retinal tack can be used for retinal fixation and may be used as a vehicle for the introduction of pharmacologic agents to prevent the cellular events that promote proliferative vitreoretinopathy.

The incidence of aseptic meningitis infection is ensuing and threatening the health of children. Enteroviruses are the major agents of aseptic meningitis and identification of virus has been a clue to diagnosis and epidemiology. The outbreak of aseptic meningitis occurred in Pusan, 1998. Patients were concentrated from April through November. Children were more susceptible than adults. Among 306 cases of specimens from stool, throat swab tested, only 7.2% were positive on virus isolation, 12 cases from stool and 10 from throat, respectively. All isolated 7 serotypes of viruses represented cytopathic effect on cultured cells. Three types of echovirus 6, 25, 30 and coxsackievirus B2, B3, B4, B6 were identified by neutralizing anti body test. Isolated coxsackievirus and echovirus were observed by an electron microscope with negative staining.

<P>Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with increased mortality rate in patients but clinically available biomarkers for disease detection are currently not available. Recently, a new biomarker, selenium-binding protein 1 (SBP1), was identified for detection of nephrotoxicity using proteomic analysis. The aim of this study was to assess the sensitivity of urinary SBP1 levels as an early detection of AKI using animal models such as cisplatin or ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). Sprague-Dawley rats were injected with cisplatin (6 mg/kg, once i.p.) and sacrificed at 1, 3, or 5 days after treatment. Ischemia was achieved by bilaterally occluding both kidneys with a microvascular clamp for 45 min and verified visually by a change in tissue color. After post-reperfusion, urine samples were collected at 9, 24, and 48 hr intervals. Urinary excretion of protein-based biomarkers was measured by Western blot analysis. In cisplatin-treated rats, mild histopathologic alterations were noted at day 1 which became severe at day 3. Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine (SCr) levels were significantly increased at day 3. Levels of urinary excretion of SBP1, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), and a tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) were markedly elevated at day 3 and 5 following drug treatment. In the vehicle-treated I/R group, serum levels of BUN and SCr and AST activity were significantly increased compared to sham. Urinary excretion of SBP1 and NGAL rose markedly following I/R. The urinary levels of SBP1, NGAL, TIMP-1, and KIM-1 proteins excreted by AKI patients and normal subjects were compared. Among these proteins, a marked rise in SBP1 was observed in urine of patients with AKI compared to normal subjects. Based upon receiver-operator curves (ROC), SBP1 displayed a higher area under the curve (AUC) scores than levels of SCr, BUN, total protein, and glucose. In particular, SBP1 protein was readily detected in small amounts of urine without purification. Data thus indicate that urinary excretion of SBP1 may be useful as a reliable biomarker for early diagnosis of AKI in patients.</P>

A new device, muscle clamping system was developed to facilitate exact quatifying technique A strabismus surgery, and reduce the risk of complications. The device is composed of a lower fixing body with three jaws and an upper supporting body. They are used to clip an extraocular muscle and fix it to the sclera with a single bite. Superior rectus recession on 16 rabbit eyes were performed with this new device. Conjunctival injection, muscle adhesion strength, and light microscopic findings were examined at 1, 2, 4 and 8 weeks postoperatively. The Conjunctival injection were minimal, adhesion power ranged from 420 to 600 gram gravity, which is sufficient in withstand the normal pull of human extraocular muscle. In microscopic exam, some Inflammatory cells and fibrosis were found. The new device was technically easy, fast, and accurate, so it may be useful in stabismus surgery.

급성 백혈병 환자에서 감염증의 양상 및 예후인자에 관한 연구 : 1988년∼1995년까지

정희진,김병수,신상원,김열홍,김우주,김민자,김준석,박승철,김권범 대한감염학회 1998 감염 Vol.30 No.3

목적 : 급성 백혈병의 경우 골수기능이 억제되고 항암화학요법에 따른 골수기능 저하로 감염의 위험이 증가하며 감염의 치료가 환자의 생존에 큰 영향을 미치게 된다. 이에 저자들은 1988년부터 1995년까지 고대 구로병원에 급성 백혈병으로 입원했던 환자들 중 입원 기간 내 감염이 있었던 경우를 대상으로 하여 감염의 위험인자 및 감염증의 예후를 후향적으로 분석함으로써 향후 급성 백혈병환자의 감염의 치료에 대한 지침을 얻고자 하였다. 방법 : 급성 백혈병으로 확진된 환자들 중 감염병에 이환된 경우를 대상으로 하여 각각을 미생물학적 확인감염, 임상적 확인감염, 그리고 설명 불가열로 구분하였다. 각각의 경우에서 감염 당시의 호중구 수, 호중구 감소 기간, 항암화학요법과의 연관성, 감염 병소, 배양된 검체 및 원인균, 선택적 소화관 살균법의 사용여부 및 골수회복 여부 등을 조사한 후 환자의 예후와 어떤 관계가 있는 지 조사하였다. 결과 : 연구 대상은 총 113예로 남녀비는 46:67 이었고 평균연령은 34±13세, 진단은 급성 골수성 백혈병 (AML)이 84예, 급성 림프구성 백혈병(ALL)이 29예였으며, 감염시 평균 호중구수는 663±1678/㎣이었고, 호중구 감소 기간은 평균 18±13일이었다. 감염양상은 항암화학요법과 연관된 감염이 84예로 대부분이었고 미생물학적 확인 감염이 40예로서 35%였으며, 폐렴과 원발성 패혈증이 각각 20예와 19예로 가장 많았고, 카테터 연관 감염이 7예로 나타났다. 배양된 균주는 E. coli가 10예(25%)로서 가장 많았으며, 전체적으로 E. coli, P. aeruginosa, K. pneumoniae 등의 그람음성균이 63%로 대부분을 차지하였으나 최근 그람양성구군 및 진균의 분리율이 증가하는 양상을 보였다. 감염증의 예후를 분석한 결과 진균 감염인 경우나 호중구 감소 기간이 긴 경우 사망률이 높았으며 그 중에서도 골수 기능이 회복 여부가 환자들의 생존과 통계적으로 유의한 연관이 있었다.(P=0.01). 결론 : 급성 백혈병 환자들에서의 감염은 관해유도화학요법 후 초래되는 호중구 감소와 유의한 관계가 있으며, 폐렴 및 패혈증의 임상양상을 보이는 경우가 흔하고, 원인균별로는 그람 음성균이 주류를 이루나 최근 그람 양성균 감염이 증가하는 추세를 보였다. 감염의 예후 인자로는 진균 감염인 경우나 호중구 감소 기간이 긴 경우 사망률이 높았으나 골수 기능의 회복여부가 결정적인 역할을 하는 것으로 나타나, 향후 급성 백혈병 환자의 치료에 있어 감염 빈도의 감소와 감염에서의 조속한 회복을 위해서는 골수 기능의 회복에 중점을 두어야 할 것으로 사료된다. Background : Infection is one of the most important and fatal complications in patients with acute leukemia. The characteristics of infection in acute leukemic patients are different from those in other diseases by the lack of normal inflammatory responses or distinct clinical evidence except fever. To improve the outcome of acute leukemia, it is very important to recognize the risk factors, patterns and prognostic factors of acute leukemia. Methods : We analyzed retrospectively the patterns of infection from 113 febrile patients with acute leukemia from January, 1988 to December, 1995. To determine the prognostic factors and the outcome of infection, the following variables were analyzed: the presence of neutropenia, use of chemotherapeutic agents, type and site of infections, isolated organisms, gastrointestinal decontamination, duration of neutropenia, and bone marrow recovery. Results : Out of 113 febrile patients with acute leukemia, 84 infection episodes(74%) occurred after chemotherapy. The mean duration of neutropenia was 18±13 days. The incidence of microbiologically-documented infection(MDI) was 35%(40/113). Pneumonia was the most common infection(26%), followed by primary sepsis(24%), catheter-related infection(9%). In cases of MDI, 63% were caused by gram-negative bacteria, followed by gram-positive bacteria(28%), and fungi(10%). Escherichia coli(25%) was the most common isolated in MDI. Regarding the prognostic factors in cases with infections, the recovery of bone marrow function was the only statistically significant factor(P=0.01). Conclusion : Infection has been a major cause of morbidity and mortality in acute in acute leukemic patients. To prevent infection and thereby improve the prognosis of acute leukemia, restoration of bone marrow function at early stage is important.

Background: A hyperosmolar nonketotic state has been known to have a high mortality, and even now, despite this high mortality, only a few studies of this disease have been performed. We studied the prognostic factors for the hyperosmolar nonketotic state. Methods: We retrospectively studied the cases of 40 patients who were in a hypersomolar nonketotic state when admitted to Sanggye Paik Hospital during the 6-year Period from 1995 through 2000. We divided the hyperosmolar nonketotic patients into two groups, the complete recovery group and the incomplete recovery group, and compared the clinical features, the laboratory findings, and the precipitating factors between two groups. Results: 1) A total of 40 patients were studied: 24 in the complete recovery group and 16 patients in the incomplete recovery group. The mortality rate was 32.5%. 2) No significant statistical difference existed among the clinical features of the two groups, except for the sex(p<0.01). 3) Among the laboratory findings of both groups, analysis revealed that the effective osmolarity was significantly higher among those in the incomplete recovery group(p<0.01). Serum sodium concentration was also significantly higher among those in the incomplete recovery group(p<0.01). Serum creatinine was also significantly higher among those in the incomplete recovery group(p<0.05). Serum bicarbonate concentration, on the other hand, was significantly lower among those in that group(p<0.05).4) Infection was identified as the most common precipitating factor(62.5%). Among the precipitating factors of the two groups, there were significant statistical difference in pneumonia, UTI, and inappropriate glucose control. 5) A significant statistical difference existed among the initial level of consciousness of both groups(p<0.05). 6) The only significant independent factor responsible for prognosis of nonketotic hyperosmolar state patients was the sex. Conclusion: The sex was only significant independent prognostic factor of nonketotic hyperosmolar state patients.

Objectives : We report an interim result of conformal radiotherapy in a patient with early stage cancer at the base of the tongue, which developed in a previously irradiated area. Materials and Methods : A 64-year-old male patient was diagnosed with T4NOMO supraglottic cancer. He received 72Gy of radiation therapy from 21 November 1988 to 24 February 1989. He had local failure and underwent a salvage total laryngectomy on 28 August 1989. Subsequently, he did well. In early 1999, he suffered from throat pain. He had a 2.5cm ulcerative mass at the base of his tongue, in the area that had been irradiated previously. Biopsy showed squamous cell carcinoma. After workup, he was diagnosed with base of tongue cancer with T2NOMO. Surgery was not feasible because the morbidity was not acceptable. Since it was difficult to re-irradiate the area with a curable dose using conventional 2D radiation therapy with an acceptable morbidity, we decided to try conformal radiotherapy. We used 7 static beam ports with field sizes from 7×6.4 to 8×8㎠, using 6 and 10MV photons. The fractionation regimen was 1.8Gy, 5 times per week. He received 64.8Gy in 36 fractions from 9 April 1999 to 1 June 1999. Results : In the 21 months since radiotherapy, the patient has not experienced any acute or chronic complications, such as xerostomia. He experienced relief of pain shortly after the start of radiotherapy, showed a complete response, and is still doing well. Conclusion : Conformal radiotherapy can be used to treat cancer that develops within a previously irradiated field, with curative intent.
