Background: Cancer incidence rates are increasing particularly in developing countries. It is crucial for policy makers to know basic cancer epidemiology in each region to design comprehensive prevention plans. There have hitherto been no population-based data available for cancer in Khuzestan province. The present report is a first from the regional population-based cancer registry for the period of 2002-2009. Materials and Methods: Data were collected retrospectively reviewing all new cancer patients whom were registered in Khuzestan province cancer registry during an 8-year period (2002-2009). All cases were coded based on the ICD-O-3 coding system and collected data were computerized using SPSS (Chicago, IL) software, version 11.5. The age standardized incidence rates (ASRs) per 100,000 person-year for all cancers were computed using the indirect method of standardization to the world population. Results: During the 8-year study period, 16,801 new cancer cases were registered. Based on the computed ASRs, the five most frequent malignancies in females were breast (26.4 per 100,000), skin (13.6), colorectal (5.72), stomach (4.31) and bladder(4.07) and in males, the five most frequent were skin (16.0 per 100,000), bladder (10.7),prostate (7.64), stomach (7.17), and colorectal (6.32).The ASR for all malignancies in women was 92.5 per 100,000, and that for men was 87.4. Conclusions: The observed patterns from the analysis of Khuzestan cancer registry data will lead to better understanding of the epidemiology of various malignancies in this part ofthe country and consequently provide a useful guide for authorities to make efficacious decisions and policies about a cancer control program for south-west Iran.

Purpose : Skin Resistance Variability(SRV) is a kind of biofunctional signal, and it can show the function of autonomic nervous system, especially in the sympathetic nerve. The objective of this study is to find out the differences of SRV of reproductive women with aging. Method : We measured SRV(by CP-6000A) of 151 women who visited Gynecologic Clinic. And the results were classified according to age, by five groups. After detection of SRV, we performed correlation analysis and ANOVA by SPSS 12.0. Results : 1. The SRV was measured twice. It resulted in seven areas. In 1, 2, 3 areas, the second results were higher than first results in every groups. In 4, 5, 6, 7 areas, the first results were higher than second results in every groups. 2. The SRV of lower part (4, 5, 6, 7 area) on the body was higher than that of higher part (1, 2, 3 area). 3. The SRV in the youngest group was higher than the oldest group in 1, 2, 3 area of second trial. Conclusion : With relations to the standardization and objectification of oriental medicine, we expect that these results contribute to gynecologic clinic in the department of diagnosis of functional abnormality of hypothalamus-hypophysis-ovarian axis (H-P-O axis).

Pulse diagnosis is a central diagnosis method used in traditional Oriental medicine. To standardize and modernize the pulse diagnosis method, it is essential to develop an instrument-based reinterpretation of the clinically used pulse images in terms of the physical quantities such as the strength, period, width, length, and depth of the pulse. As a step towards such standardization, we conducted a clinical study on the floating/sinking pulses based on an automated palpation instrument (3D-MAC, Daeyo Medi, Korea) for 213 female subjects in their 20s and 174 female subjects in their 60s. The floating/sinking pulses are the two representative pulse images depending only on the depth of the pulse, and can be conveniently scaled by the coefficient of the floating-sinking pulse ($C_{fs}{\in}(0,1)$), which represents how strong one should apply the hold-down pressure to obtain the maximal pulse strength. As a result, primarily we found that it tends to appear more floating-like pulse ($C_{fs}{\rightarrow}0$) at Gwan and more sinking-like pulse ($C_{fs}{\rightarrow}1$) at Cheek, at both age groups and at both wrists. This result is consistent with a previous study on the geometrical structure of the blood vessel by an ultrasonograph. Second, the pulse tends to be more sinking-like in the age group of 60s than 20s. Finally, the pulses at the right palpation positions were found to be more sinking-like than the left, at both age groups.

본 연구의 목적은 흰쥐 상악 대구치를 발거하여 자기장 저속 냉동보관법을 이용하여 냉동 시 치주인대세포의 환성도 및 세포 사멸도를 MTT 검색법과 TUNEL 검사를 이용하여 측정하고자 하였다. 4주령의 암컷 Sprague-Dawley계 흰쥐의 상악 좌우 제1,2대 구치를 발거하여 각 군 당 12개의 쥐 치아를 MTT검색에 이용하였고 6개의 치아를 TUNEL 검사에 이용하였다. 실험군은 5개군으로 대조군은 즉시 발치군이며 4$^{\circ}C$ 냉장고에서 1주일간 보관한 냉장군, 발치 후 동해방지제 처리과정을 거쳐 -196$^{\circ}C$의 액화질소에 넣어 급속 냉동한 액화질소군, 217 mA, 60 Hz, 1 G의 자기장을 이용하여 -0.3$^{\circ}C$/min 의 속도로 -20$^{\circ}C$까지 냉동 후 -196$^{\circ}C$로 급속 냉동한 자기장군, -0.3$^{\circ}C$/min의 속도로 -20$^{\circ}C$까지 냉동 후 -196$^{\circ}C$에 급속 냉동한 저속 냉동군으로 나누었다. 보존액은 F medium을 사용했으며 동해방지제로 10% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)를 사용하였다. 치근면을 단위면적으로 표준화하기 위해 MTT 측정값을 Eosin 염색 후 530 nm에서 측정 한 흡광도 값으로 나누었다. TUNEL 검사 시 각 조직슬라이드에서 400배 크기의 현미경 시야에서 임의로 세 부분을 지정하여 정상 세포수와 양성 세포수를 세어 그 비율을 계산하여 각 실험군 당 평균치를 구하였다. 통계 분석을 위해 one way ANOVA를 시행하였으며 사후검정으로 Scheffe와 Tukey HSD방법을 썼으며 결과는 다음과 같다. MTT검색에 의한 흡광도를 Eosin염색 후 측정한 흡광도로 나눈 값에서는 자기장군은 즉시 발치군보다 낮은 세포활성을 보였고 (p < 0.05) 액화질소군, 저속 냉동군과는 통계적으로 유의성 있는 차이를 보이지 않았다. 그러나 자기장군은 액화질소군, 저속 냉동군과 함께 냉장군보다는 높은 세포 활성도를 보였다 (p < 0.05) TUNEL 검사 결과도 자기장군은 즉시 발치군보다 치주인대의 세포사멸도가 높았으나 (p < 0.05) 저속 냉동군과 액화 질소군과는 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 자기장군은 냉장군보다 세포사멸도가 낮았으며 냉장군은 모든 군 중에서 세포 사멸도가 가장 높았다 (p < 0.05).

Background: The HER-2/neu gene is altered in 15-20% of breast cancer patients. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) is considered to be the most cost-effective method for HER-2 detection in many countries. Approximately 8,000 new cases of breast cancer are observed annually in Iran. The aims of this study were to conduct a systematic review of the literature on the rate of HER-2-positive breast cancer diagnosed by IHC in Iran. Methods: A systematic search of the medical literature using the Medline/PubMed, ISI and SID databases revealed articles published in the English and Persian languages evaluating HER-2-positive breast cancer in Iran. Results: From 22 studies, 3,033 patients were evaluated, of whom 1,350 were diagnosed as HER-2-positive by IHC HER-2 testing. The mean percentage of HER-2-positive patients was 44.5%, which is higher than that recorded in international statistics. Results of this meta-analysis showed a significant heterogeneity between ratios. There was a statistically significant difference between the results of pre- and post implementation of 2007 American Society of Clinical Oncology/College of American Pathologists (ASCO/CAP) guideline. IHC HER-2 testing has been performed in Iran for over 10 years. Similar to many other countries, before establishment of an infrastructure for IHC diagnostic tests, HER-2 testing was routinely performed in Iran. Our study showed that the statistics reported from Iran varied widely; for instance, the rate of HER-2-positive cases varied from 23.3% to 81.0%. Conclusions: Our results demonstrate that the lack of standardization and harmonization of this test have led to marked variations in breast cancer diagnosis in Iran.

이번 실험의 목적은 이축 굴곡 강도 시험의 복합레진에서의 적용가능성을 위해 기존의 3점 굴곡 강도 시험과 이축 굴곡 강도 시험을 이용하여 치과용 광중합형 레진의 강도를 측정하고, 이를 Weibull modulus를 이용하여 상대적 신뢰도를 비교하는 것이다. 이번 실험에 사용된 재료는 $MICRONEW^{TM},\;RENEW^{(R)}$ (Bisco, Schaumburg, USA)의 두 가지 광중합형 수복 재료이다. 이축 굴곡 강도 측정에는 International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 6872 규정에 따라 piston-on-3-ball test를 사용하였으며 검사 시편은 직경이 각각 12 mm (지지원의 반지름 3.75 mm), 16 mm (지지원의 반지름 5 mm), 두께가 각각 0.5 mm, 1 mm, 2 mm인 여섯 개의 군으로 나누어 제작하였으며 각 군당 시편을 20개씩 제작하였다. $MICRONEW^{TM}$와 $RENEW^{(R)}$의 실험 결과, 이축 굴곡 강도가 3점 굴곡 강도보다 높은 평균값을 나타내었고 이축 굴곡 강도의 모든 군이 3점 굴곡 강도보다 높은 Weibull modulus 값을 보여, 이축 굴곡 강도 시험이 상대적으로 실험적 오차의 영향을 적게 받는 방법으로 신뢰 할 수 있었다. 또한 이축 굴곡 강도 시험에서 시편의 두께가 2 mm일 때 가장 높은 Weibull modulus를 나타내었으며 이축 굴곡 강도시험군 중, $MICRONEW^{TM}$의 두께 2 mm군에서는 지지원의 반지름에 따른 굴곡 강도의 통계학적 유의차이가 없었고 (p>0.05), 이를 제외한 모든 군에서 시편의 두께와 지지원의 반지름에 따른 굴곡 강도의 통계학적 유의차이가 있었다 (p<0.05). 위의 결과로 미루어 볼 때 두께 2 mm군에서 이축 굴곡 강도는 기존의 3점 굴곡 강도 시험보다 우수한 것으로 추천할 수 있는 방법이다.

율무 새싹 추출물의 riboflavin과 coixol의 원료표준화를 위한 동시분석 조건을 검증하고, 율무 새싹의 전초와 잎 추출물의 항산화 활성과 함량의 상관관계에 대해 조사하였다. 1. HPLC 분석을 위한 riboflavin과 coixol의 피크가 각각 분리되어 특이성을 확인하였고, 일내 및 일간 정확성은 모두 회수율이 100.28%에서 103.98% 사이이며 정밀성은 모두 1.93%이하를 나타내므로 본 실험의 분석조건은 높은 정확성과 정밀성을 가지고 있다. 2. Riboflavin과 coixol의 동시분석 조건의 검출한계(LOD) 및 정량한계(LOQ)를 조사한 결과 검출한계는 0.71 및 0.31 ㎍/mL, 정량한계는 2.71 및 0.94 ㎍/mL이므로 확립된 HPLC 분석조건은 riboflavin과 coixol의 동시분석하기에 무리가 없는 분석법으로 조사되었다. 3. 율무 새싹의 전초와 잎의 riboflavin과 coixol의 함량을 본 연구에서 얻어진 동시분석법을 적용하여 잎의 환류 추출물에서 가장 높은 함량이 나타났다. 4. 항산화 활성 측정 시, DPPH와 ABTS⁺ 소거능에서 모두 율무 새싹의 전초보다 잎에서, 상온 추출보다 환류 추출이 더 낮은 IC₅₀값을 나타내었다. 율무 새싹 추출물의 riboflavin과 coixol 및 항산화 활성과의 상관관계를 실시한 결과, coixol이 증가할수록 DPPH와 ABTS⁺ 소거능의 IC₅₀값이 유의적으로 감소하는 경향이 나타나므로 원료표준화 지표뿐만 아니라 기능성 지표로 활용이 가능할 것으로 판단되었다.
