In order to elucidate the characterization of receptors involved in inestinal motility of Israeli carp, spontaneously contracting Israeli carp intestinal preperations were prepared and mounted in the organ chambers for contraction traicings using a polygraph. Various contractile agonists were treated and their dose-response curves were constructed. $EC_{50}$ values$(pD_2)$ of each agonist on specific receptors, $pA_2$ values of competitive antagonists against some agonists, and $K_1$, values of noncompetitive antagonists against some agonists were analyzed for characterization of receptors related with the intestinal contraction. Results obtained through the experiments were summarized as follows: 1. Acetylcholine(ACh) exhibited biphasic dose-response curves: initial ACh-induced dose dependent contractions were observed in pM levels but followed by decreased response in in-between concentration levels. Dose dependent contractions reappeared in ${\mu}M$ level. The peaks in pM and ${\mu}M$ levels appeared in $10^{-13}M$ and $3{\times}10^{-5}M$, respectvely. 2. Carbachol(CaCh) exhibited dose dependent contractions from $10^{-9}M$ to $10^{-5}M$, and its $pD_2$ values were higher than those of ACh($5.60{\pm}0.11$). ACh and CaCh exhibited equiactive contractions. Nicotine had no effects on contractile responses of Israeli carp intestine. 3. ACh-induced responses were inhibited by atropine($K_1:7{\times}10^{-8}M$), a muscarinic antagonist, in a non-competitive manner. But CaCh-induced responses were inhibited by both antimuscarinic atropine($pA_2:9.52{\pm}0.14$) and selective $M_2$ antagonistic 4-DAMP($pA_2:8.16{\pm}0.09$), in competitive manners. Nicotine receptor antagonistic decamethonium and hexamethonium had no effects on ACh-and CaCh-induced contractions. Therefore, the cholinergic receptor related to intestinal motility of Israeli carp was assumed as $M_2$ type. 4. In Israeli carp intestine, 5-HT (serotonin) exhibited dose dependent contractions in concentration range from $10^{-8}M$ to $10^{-5}M$. The maximal responses, however, were corresponded to about 50% of those of ACh or CaCh. 5-HT induced contractions were inhibited by $5-HT_2$ antagonistic ketanserin ($K_1: 7.8{\times}10^{-4}M$) in a non-competitive manner, but not by both of anti $5-HT_1$, spiperone and anti $5-HT_3$, MDL-72222. Hence, $5-HT_2$ receptors are suggested to be existed in Isreli carp intestine.

Proceedings of International Symposium on East-West Medicine, Seoul. 244-254, 1999.-Obesity can be defined as a metabolic disease due to an increased state of fat tissues caused by an imbalance of calorie intake and use. Recently, in Korea by improvement and westernization of food intake, along with decrease in exercise activities, the prevalence of obesity has increased greatly. Our objectives were to study stability and effects of decrease in body fat by administering red ginseng compound preparation (known to have body fat decreasing effects in laboratory animals) to obesity patients on low calorie diets. Changes in weight and body fat were measured while carrying out calorie-restricted diets on patients for 4 weeks, then administering red ginseng compound preparation for another 4 weeks. The patients were 20 people whose BMI were 25kg/㎡ or over and whose percent body fat was also 30% or over when tested by bioelectrical conductivity. 1. Changes in weight were from 70.04kg(base line) to 67.43kg(after taking red ginseng compound preparation). 2. In similar sense, BMI decreased from 27.12kg/㎡(base line) to 26.56kg/㎡(after dieting), and further to 26.01kg/㎡ (after taking red ginseng compound preparation). The BMI seemed to decrease significantly compared to the baseline after the use of red ginseng compound. 3. Waist hip ratio was changed from 0.8858(base line) to 0.8728, but it was statistically insignificant. 4. The percent body fat was 35,16%(base line), 33.87%(after dieting), and 31.68%(after taking red ginseng compound preparation). 5. Complete blood cell count and blood chemisrty remained unaffected by the administration. 6. In concern to endocrinologic studies, T3 decreased from 118.7 to 98.2ng/dL, and T4 increased from 8.8 to 9.2㎕/ dL. Epinephrine showed a tendency to decreased from 0.27 to 0.25 ng/mL, and norepinephrine increased from 0.39 to 0.44ng/mL. 7. Leptin was not changed. 8. Some patients complained adverse effects; constipation(5 patients, may be due to diet therapy), fatigue (2 patients), pruritus(2 patients), flushing(s patients), dizziness(3 patients) and epigastric discomfort(2 patients). However their symptoms were mild, so medication did not stopped. In conclusion, loss of weight without significant side effects was observed during low calorie diet and red ginseng compound preparation administration. This is thought to be in relation to sympathetic nerve system rather than adrenal gland. Also, further long0term studies should be required, since the observed results were based on short-term changes in weight.

Effects of Indium Composition Ratio on Electrical Stability of Top-gate Self-aligned Coplanar IGZO TFTs under Self-heating Stress Conditions

Yeong-Gil Kim,Chae-Eun Oh,Ye-Lim Han,Dong-Ho Lee,Joon-Young Lee,Kyoung-Seok Son,Jun Hyung Lim,Ick-Joon Park,Sang-Hun Song,Hyuck-In Kwon 대한전자공학회 2024 Journal of semiconductor technology and science Vol.24 No.4

We demonstrated that the indium composition ratio in the channel layer significantly affects the electrical stability of top-gate self-aligned (TG SA) coplanar structure indium-gallium-zinc oxide (IGZO) thin-film transistors (TFTs) under self-heating stress (SHS) conditions. The transfer curves of the In-poor IGZO TFT continuously shifted in the positive direction with extended stress time, without a significant change in the subthreshold swing (SS) and field-effect mobility (μFE) values during SHS application. In contrast, the transfer curve of the In-rich IGZO TFT shifted in the negative direction until the SHS time reaches 1200 s, after which it shifted in the positive direction with extended stress time. Besides, SS and μFE values continuously increased as the SHS time increased in the In-rich IGZO TFTs. The unusual behavior of the TG SA coplanar In-rich IGZO TFT during SHS is mainly attributed to the more pronounced diffusion of hydrogen (H) atoms from the n+-IGZO source/drain extension region to the IGZO channel region in the In-rich IGZO than in the In-poor IGZO. The H atoms diffused into the IGZO channel layer act as either shallow donors or deep acceptors, depending on their concentration and environmental conditions, thus causing the abnormal behavior of IGZO TFTs during SHS.

The purpose of soft tissue defect reconstruction is minimal scar with aesthetic and functional good results. Reconstruction of head and neck, upper extremity, chest, and lower extremity defects has been reported with standard available tissue expansions. Various surgical methods have been used in an attempt to achieve a normallooking skin color, texture, sensation, thickness and same skin adenexa. Therefore, in accordance with defect size and location, the operative method was considered so we select adequate method. Authors achieved good results from 48 cases of tissue expansion, 18 cases of ISLE (intraoperative sustained limited expansion), and 35 cases of presuturing technique. 1)The most common cause of reconstruction for soft tissue defect was post grafted scar 51cases(51%), next was tattoo 20 cases(19.6%), traumatic soft tissue defect 16cases(15.7% ) and nevus 8 cases(7.8%)in order. 2)Males(55.9%)were affected more often than females(44.1%)in the ratio 1, 3 : 1 and the most frequently affected group was the age of 20 to 30 years as 36% . 3)The distribution of incidence and location were as follow : face(39.2%), upper extremity(25.5%), scalp(17.6%), lower extremity(9.8%) and trunk(7.8%). 4)The cause and distribution were scalp in 20 cases(39.2%), face in 40 cases(29.4%) in the post grafted scar, upper extremity 18 cases(90.0%) in the tattoo, upper extremity 4 cases(50.0%), face 2 cases(25.0%) in the nevus and even distribution in the traumatic soft tissue defects. 5)The presuturing technique was best recommended method for soft tissue defect in 4cm diameter lesion on extremity, but ISLE method was used in the open traumatic soft tissue defect. Over 9cm wide scar was resurfaced by expanded skin using tissue expander.

연구배경 : 혈전현상을 특징으로 하는 질환에서는 Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) 이 높은 활성도를 보이는데, PAI-1 치는 당뇨병, 심근경색증, 비만 등에서 높다고 밝혀진 바 있다. 또한 당뇨병 환자들의 합병증의 주요한 병인은 죽상경화증으로 혈전현상이 특징인 질환에서 증가하는 PAI-1이 당뇨병 환자에서 높다. 목적 : 정상인에서의 PAI-1 유전자 촉진자의 유전자형의 분포 및 혈액농도를 관찰하고, 당뇨병 및 뇌혈관 질환 환자군에서의 PAI-1 유전자 촉진자 유전자형의 분포 및 혈액농도를 측정하여 정상인과 차이점을 알아본다. 당뇨병 환자군에서의 혈장 PAI-1 치와 인슐린 저항성, 전구 인슐린 등과의 상관관계를 살펴보고, 인슐린저항성과 대혈관질환의 지표로 사용될 수 있는지 알아보았다. 방법 : 대상으로는 정상인 76명, 제2형 당뇨병 환자 56명, 뇌혈관질환이 동반된 제2형 당뇨병 환자 48명, 뇌혈관질환 환자 51명을 선택하여, 환자의 혈액에서 인슐린, 공복시 혈당, 전구인슐린, 중성지방, 총콜레스테롤 및 기타 생화학 검사 및 이학적 검사를 시행하였다. 환자의 DNA를 채취하여 전사개시 -675bp를 포함하는 대립형질 특이 시발체를 사용하여 중합효소 연쇄 반응을 실시하여, 그 유전자형을 판독하였다. 결과 : 정상 대조군 76명 (46.4±11.1세), 2형 당뇨병 환자 56명 (58.3±12.6세), 뇌경색증 환자 51명 (63.1±13.2세) 대상으로 하였다. PAI-1 촉진자 유전자형의 (4G/4G, 4G/5G, 5G/5G)빈도는 정상 대조군이 각각 23.7%, 75.0%, 1.3%, 뇌경색 환자군이 19.6%, 66.7%, 13.7%, 뇌경색이 동반된 당뇨병 환자군이 33.3%, 58.3%, 8.3% 였다. (X2=12.6, p=0.05). 이러한 사실은 서구인에 비해 4G/4G, 5G/5G 동형 유전자형이 낮은 결과였다. 각 군별 혈장 PAI-1 농도는 정상 대조군 13.4, 1.8 ~ 65.2 ng/mL (중앙값 , 범위 ) 2형 당뇨병 환자군 14.4, 2.9 ~ 47.8 ng/mL, 뇌경색 환자군 21.9, 6.2 ~ 154.7 ng/mL , 뇌경색이 동반된 2형 당뇨병 환자군 28.8, 3.2 ~ 139.3 ng/mL 로 차이를 보였다 (p=0.000). 전체 대상에서 PAI-1 촉진자 부위의 유전자형에 따른 PAI-1 활성도와 항원 농도는 차이를 보이지 않았다. 그러나 PAI-1 활성도는 혈중 중성지방, 전구인슐린, 체질량지수와 독립적인 상관관계를 보였다 (p=0.000, p=0.000 and p=0.005). 결론 : 결론적으로 PAI-1 촉진자 부위의 유전자형은 뇌경색증의 지표는 아니며, PAI-1 활성도를 결정짓는 인자는 유전적 요인보다는 혈중 중성지방, 전구 인슐린, 체질량지수와 같은 대사적 요인으로 생각된다. Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is known be related to insulin resistance and several components of the large vascular disease. Notably, the high frequencies of diseases such as coronary heart disease or stroke are related to type 2 diabetes complications. We studied to find out whether the PAI-1 promother genotype could be a marker for cerebral infarction in type 2 patients. Subject patients were; 56 type 2 diabetics (age 58.3±12.6), 51 patients with cerebral infarction (age 63.1±13.2), 48 type 2 diabetics with cerebral infarction (age 64.8±9.3) , and 76 healthy control (age 46.4±11.1). The 4G/5G genotype of PAI-1 promoter was evaluated by polymerase chain reaction and endonuclease digestion. PAI-1 promoter genotype frequency (4G/4G, 4G/5G, 5G/5G) was 23.7%, 75.0% and 1.3% in healthy control, 17.9%, 67.9% and 14.3% in type 2 diabetes patients, 19.6%, 66.7% and 13.7% in cerebral infarction patients, 33.3%, 58.3% and 8.3% in type 2 diabetics with cerebral infarction (X^2=12.6, p=0.05). This finding is lower in frequency of 5G/5G homozygote than that reported in Caucasians. The plasma PAI-1 concentrations according to the disease were 13.4, 1.8 ~ 65.2 ng/mL (median, range) for healthy control, 14.4, 2.9 ~ 47.8 ng/mL for type 2 diabetes, 21.9 6.2 ~ 154.7 ng/mL for cerebral infarction , and 28.8, 3.2 ~ 139.3 ng/mL, for cerebral infarction with type 2 diabetes (p=0.000). In the all subjects, PAI-1 concentration and activity of PAI-1 promoter genotype did not show any significant difference. However, the PAI-1 activity was independently associated with serum triglyceride level, plasma proinsulin and BMI (p=0.000, p=0.000 and p=0.005 respectively). We concluded that PAI-1 genotype is not a marker for the cerebral infarction ; however, the genotype is related to PAI-1 concentration , and therefore it seems to be that metabolic factors such as triglyceride level or plasma proinsulin or BMI are more in relations with determining the PAI-1 concentration than the genotype.

연구배경:최근 당뇨병의 새로운 치료법으로 시도되고 있는 췌도이식은 충분한 췌도수의 확보와 췌도생존율을 높이기 위한 면역억제제 사용이 제한점이 되고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 이식 전 충분한 췌도 수의 확보를 위해 분리한 췌도를 냉동보존하는 방법을 확립하고 냉동보존한 백서 췌도세포의 시험관내 그리고 생체내 기능을 조사하였다. 방법:분리한 백서의 췌장소도를 48시간 배양한 후 한 시험관당 췌도세포 1000개씩 나누었다. 냉동보존은 6개의 시험관에 DMSO를 첨가한 후 초 냉각(supercooling), 핵화(nucleation)단계를 거친 후 99% isopropanol과 액체질소가 들어있는 dewer를 이용하여-0.25℃/분의 냉각속도로 -40℃까지 단계적으로 얼린후-70℃ 액체질소 탱크에 보관했다. 해동은 냉동시킨 vial들을 액체 질소 태으에서 꺼내 37℃ 항온조에 담가 급격히 해동시킨 후, 원심분리하여 상층액을 제거하고 각 vial에 0.75M sucrose 용액을 가한 후, 10% fetal calf serum이 함유된 RPMI 1640 media에서 배양하였다 각각 6개의 시험관에서 해동한 췌도들을 광학현미경 및 형광현미경하에서 췌도의 모양과 생존율에 대해 조사하고 인슐린 정적반응을 알아보았다. 또한 분리한 췌도를 냉동보존하지 않고 이식한 경우를 대조군(6마리)과 생체내 기능을 비교하였다. 결과:① 냉동보존후 획득한 췌도의 수와 생존율 해동후 획득한 췌도의 수는 해동시킨 당일날이 902±21, 24시간 배양 후에는 857±16, 72시간 후에는 817±18개로 점차 감소되었다. AO/PI 염색상 각 췌도의 생존율은 냉동 전을 100으로 하였을 때 해동당일, 24시간 후, 72시간 후가 각각 60±5, 80±5, 90±5%로 해동후 3일간 배양하였을 때 냉동전의 수준으로 회복하였다. ② 냉동보존후 췌도의 포도당에 대한 정적 인슐린 분비능:냉동직후 감소된 경향을 보였으나 해동후 3일간 배양한 췌도의 인슐린 분비는 냉동전과 통계적으로 의미있는 차이가 없이 냉동보존 전의 수준으로 회복되었다. ③ 냉동보존후 췌도의 포도당에 대한 동적 인슐린 분비능:냉동보존한 췌도를 해동후 3일째의 인슐린 동적 분비능은 냉동 전과 마찬가지로 자극 인슐린의 반응의 제1기와 2기가 잘 관찰되었다. ④ 냉동보존한 췌도세포 이식 후 혈당 변화:스트렙토조토신으로 유도된 당뇨병 쥐에 췌도이식 후 혈당은 냉동보존한 췌도이식군에서 대조군에 비해 혈당의 조절효과가 더 오래 지속되었다. 결론:소동물에서 단계적 온도 하강법을 이용한 췌도세포 냉동보존법을 확립하였으며 이는 기능, 구조 및 생존율에 큰 이상을 보이지 않았으므로 장차 사람의 췌도세포 동종이식시 부족한 췌도세포수를 극복하고 면역반응을 줄일 수 있는 매우 유용한 방법이 될 것으로 판단된다. Background : Although islet transplantation has been attempted to reverse the state of diabetes, achieving a critical number of islets and modulating the immune response limit the success of islet transplantation. Cryo-preservation of islets offers many important benefits for islet transplantation by collecting islets with a wide variety of HLA phenotypes and islet MHC expression. The aims of this study was to determine the optimal conditions for cryo-preservation by using a controlled cooling method and to evaluate in vitro and in vivo functional properties of the cryo-preserved islets. Methods : Collagenase-isolated, Ficoll-purified islets were cultured for 48 hours. They were aliquoted into freezing tubes (1000 islets per tube), equilibrated with 2M dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) in three steps, supercooled, nucleated, and controll-cooled at rate of 0.25℃/min to - 40℃ prior to storage at - 196℃. Rapid thawing and removal of DMSO with 0.75 M sucrose preceded 48 hour of culture and the morphology, viability, glucose-induced insulin secretion, and in vivo function of rats transplanted with cryopreserved islets was reexamined. Results : ① Recovery was 90.2±0.2%, 85.7±0.1% and 81.7±0.1% immendiately after, 24 hours and 72 hours after thawing respectively. The viability was 60±5%, 80±5%, 90±5% immediately after, 24 hours and 72 hours after thawing respectively. ② The glucose-stimulated-insulin secretion (GSIS) tended to decrease immediately after thawing, but GSIS increase to the level of pre-cryopreservation 72 hours after thawing. ③ The in dynamic GSIS, the first and the second phase of insulin secretion were well preserved in islets cultured for 72 hours after thawing. ④ The cryopreserved islets were cultured for 3 days and transplanted into renal sub-capsular space of streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic rats. The duration of normoglycemia in the STZ-induced diabetic rats transplanted with cryopreserved islets was significantly longer than of the fresh islets. Conclusion : The optimal condition of cryopreservation using the controlled cooling method was established in rat pancreatic islets. This cryopreservation method can be a feasible approach for human islet transplantation (J Kor Diabetes Asso 26:64~74, 2002).

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the depth of cure using various curing light sources. XL 3000 for halogen light, Apollo 95E for plasma arc light and Easy cure for LED light source were used in this study. To measure the depth of cure, B1 and A3 shade of Composites (Esthet·X, Dentsply, U.S.A.) were used. The 1,2 and 3mm thick specimens were fabricated according to various curing times and light sources. Victor's hardness test was performed after 24hours storage in distilled water. The results were as follows : 1. In all light sources, as the curing times increased the hardness values were decreased(p<0.05). 2. In halogen curing groups, the Victor's hardness was decreased as the depth increase except between 1mm and 2mm. 3. In halogen-10 and 20second curing groups. the Victor's hardness of A3 shade were lower than Bl shade, but not in 40second-curing group. 4. There were significant differences in Victor's hardness between two shades in 2,3mm of Plasma arc and LED light source curing groups(p<0.05). but not in 1mm. 5. In Bl shade, mean 2mm bottom surface hardness value of halogen-40second curing group was 61.46 and it was lower than plasma arc-10second and LED-40second curing group, in A3 shade, 2mm bottom surface hardness value of halogen-40second curing group was 59.70 and it was lower than LED-40second curing group.

Background: Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PCP) is a fatal respiratory infection frequently associated with immunocompromised (IC) conditions. Although PCP has been reported in non-immunocompromised (non-IC) patients, however, few studies have been conducted. This study was aimed to compare the clinical characteristics and prognosis of PCP in IC and non-IC patients. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed patients who were suspected of having PCP with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test positive for Pneumocystis jirovecii from January 2013 to May 2019. IC group was classified into human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hematologic, solid organ tumor, rheumatologic and immunosuppressive agent group. Results: A total 192 PCP cases including 176 IC cases and 16 non-IC cases were analyzed. Patients were older in the non-IC group compared with the IC group (72.5 vs. 62.0, P=0.002). Hematologic malignancy was the most common (47.2%), followed by HIV (14.8%) in the IC group. The interval between test for PCP-PCR and PCP treatment was shorter in the IC group compared with non-IC group (0 [0-3] vs. 4.0 [2.2-7.7] days, P=0.001). In-hospital mortality was not significantly different between IC and non-IC groups (43.2% vs. 62.5%, P=0.189). Age (odds ratio [OR] 1.05; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.02-1.09; P=0.002) and PaO₂/FiO₂ (OR 0.99; 95% CI 0.98-1.00; P=0.039) were the prognostic factors for in-hospital mortality in the multivariate logistic regression analysis. There was no significant difference between IC and non-IC group in 6-month survival. However, HIV group had better 6-month survival compared with non- IC group in the subgroup analysis (Hazard ratio 0.16; 95% CI 0.05-0.53; P=0.003]. Conclusion: Patients with PCP in non-IC group were older than IC group, and had similar prognosis as other IC group except HIV group.

강대영,송규상,최정목,노승무,정경수,오정연,김진향,양준묵,최선웅,이진호,조준식,민병무,김용백,김창식,박근성,김승영,김학용,인현빈 충남대학교 의과대학 지역사회의학연구소 1998 충남의대잡지 Vol.25 No.1

For more effective intraperitoneal chemotherapy, the authers made 5-fluorouracil-polyglycolic acid composite disks(FU-PGA disks) with 5-fluorouracil and polyglycolic acid, a biodegradable polymer. We inserted the FU-PGA disk into the peritoneal cavites of Sprague-Dawley male rats, the control and three experimental groups; one FU-PGA disk insert group(300mg/kg), two FU-PGA disk insert group(600mg/kg), and three FU-PGA disk insert group(900mg/kg). The control group received a similar number of PGA disk inserts. A pharmacokinetic study was performed to measure the 5-fluorouracil concentration in the peritoneal fluid, blood, and tissues(liver, kidney and heart) at 24 hours, 72hours and 168 hours after insertion of the FU-PGA disk. Light and electron microscopic studies were done. The results were as follows: 1) The number of white blood cells and platelets decreased after FU-PGA insertion. The degree was proportional to the duration and amounts inserted. The change in the number of red blood cells varied slightly. 2) Light microscopically, slight changes were noted at 168 hours in the 3 disk insert group (900mg/kg). Mild fatty change and hepatocyte degeneration around the central veins of the liver were noted, with vacuolar degeneration in the proximal convoluted tubules of the kidney. 3) Electron microscopically,the liver showed focal increases of lipid droplets in the hepatocytes, and irregular nuclear membrane with focal nucleolar segregation of the fibrillar and granular elements. Also the double membranous structure of the hepatocytes and Kupffer cells was widened with bleb formation. The kidney showed wide separation of the nuclear double membrane in the proximal convoluted tubular cells and mesangial cells, with vacuolation and myelin figure formation in the mitochondria of the proximal convoluted tubular cells, at 72 hours and 168 hours in the 2 to 3 FU-PGA insert groups. The heart showed focal loss of cristae,vacuolation and myelin figure formation in the mitochondria of the 2 to 3 FU-PGA insert groups. In conclusion, despite the large amont of FU-PGA inserted, the histopathological changes in the liver, kidney and heart were slight, and consonant with the very low amount of 5-fluorouracil concentrations detected in the liver, kidney and heart. The above results suggest that the FU-PGA composite can serve as a new device for releasing drugs in a controlled manner and easily targeted to intraperitoneal organs. This device can improve the efficacy of intraperitoneal chemotherapy for gastric cancer.

The diagnostic tools and treatment modalities for epilepsies are growing in recent years. Therefore many investigators are studying the relationship of ipilepsy and psychopathology. These efforts are not only for the understanding of and therapeutic approach to psychiatric disorder in epileptic patients but also seeking the etiological basis of psychopathologies. Method 45 patients who were diagnosed as temporal lobe epilepsy by brain MRI and EEG etc were investigated, and offered psychiatric diagnosis. Also we took detailed psychiatric histories and investigated the characteristic features of psychiatric disorders in temporal lobe epilepsy. We evaluated several variables, i.e., age, sex, duration of epilepsy, age at first seizure, age at onset of epilepsy, time between first seizure and onset of epilepsy, seizure frequency, history of febrile convulsions, history of clustering seizures, and laterality of focus of these 45 subjects. Futher investigations divided 45 subjects into a group without psychiatric disorder, a group with mood disorder and a group with psychotic disorder. And we compared those variables among these 3 groups. Among 45 subjects, nine were diagnosed as psychotic disorders, five were mood disorders, and two were anxiety disorders. Among 9 subjects with psychotic disorders, six were diagnosed as psychotic disorder NOS, and the other three were schizophrenia. And they manifested unique clinical features in relations to epileptic seizures. Among 5 subjects with mood disorders, 4 subjects were diagnosed as dysthymia with chronic depression and 1 subject were major depression. We compared all variables between the group without psychiatric disorder and the group with psychotic disorder however we can't find any statistically significant differences except one variable. In the group with psychotic disorder, all subjects had the history of clustering of seizures in the rate of 100% of cases, but 54.6% of cases of the group without psychiatric disorder. The statistical difference was significant(p=0.016). It is a preliminary study in this field in Korea. However this study will help to understand the various psychiatric symptoms of the patients with temporal lobe epilepsy and will help to promote further investigations in this field.
