도공지 제조 시 적절한 표면특성을 지닌 원지를 사용하는 것은 최종 도공지 품질향상은 물론 조업성 개선에도 필수적인 요소이다. 이러한 목적을 달성하기 위해 도공원지의 표면 사이징이 실시되고 있다. 도공원지의 표면 사이정 시 양성전분을 이용할 경우 서로 반대로 하전된 전분 과 섬유 사이에 발현되는 정전기적 인력에 의해서 표면 사이정 전분의 원지로의 전분 침투가 억제되어 도공원지의 불투명도, 광택도 인쇄적성 둥의 물성 향상을 꾀할 수 있다. 또 이러한 원지를 이용하여 도공을 할 경우 음전하를 띤 도공액 구성성분과 양전하를 띤 원지 표면의 정 전기적 작용에 의해 도공액의 부동화가 촉진될 수 있으므로 도공액의 표면 잔류성이 향상되 며, 도공층 공극 구조 개선에 따른 광학적인 성질의 개선도 기대할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 본 연구에서는 양성전분으로 표면 사이정 된 원지를 사용한 도공지와 기존의 산화전분을 이용하여 표면 사이정한 원지를 이용하여 제조된 도공지의 특성을 비교하였다. 또 양성전분에 의한 표면 사이징 효과를 보다 극대화하고 도공안료와 원지 표면과의 반응성을 증가시키기 위 해 양이온성 폴리머를 표면 사이정 시 첨가하여 표면 사이칭을 하는 방법을 평가하였다. 아울 러 양성전분과 도공안료와의 반응에 따라 도공층의 부동화가 촉진될 수 있다는 근거를 구명하 기 위해 레올로지적인 접근을 시도하였으며, 도공층의 공극 특성 관찰, 광산란 및 광홉수 계수 측정 등을 통해 양성전분으로 표면 사이정된 도공층의 구조적 특성을 분석하였다. 그 결과 산화전분에 비해 양성전분으로 표면 사이징한 원지의 경우 도공지의 불투명도가 높게 나타났다. 이는 양성전분으로 표면 사이정한 원지를 사용한 경우 도공층의 구조가 광 산란계수를 향상시킬 수 있도록 변화되었기 때문임을 확인하였다. 표면 사이징시 양이온성 폴리머를 첨가할 경우 불투명도 개선에 상당한 효과가 있었으며, 전분 대비 1% 이하의 첨 가량에서도 어느 정도의 개선이 가능하였다. 양성전분에 의한 도공액의 조기 부동화가 발현 된다는 것을 구명하기 위해서 도공액의 점탄성적 평가를 실시한 결과 산화전분에 비해 양성 전분 상에서 도공액의 storage modulus가 높고 critical strain point 역시 높은 값을 나타낸 다는 것을 확인하였다. 이는 양성전분과 도공액, 특히 클레이와의 정전기적 인력에 의한 반 응 결과로 생각된다. 양성전분을 이용한 도공원지의 표면 사이정 기술은 특히 평량이 낮은 도공지의 경우 수분 의 침투를 억제함으로써 도공공정에서의 지절을 감소시킬 뿐 아니라 불투명도 등 광학적 성질 을 개선시키고, 표면 커버리지를 향상시키는 효과를 나타낼 것으로 기대된다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess the diagnostic value of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT) for detecting the lymph node (LN) metastasis of gastric cancer. Materials and Methods: 119 patients (M : F=89 : 30; mean age: 64) with gastric cancer were referred for preoperative FDG-PET/CT scanning and spiral enhanced abdominal pelvic CT from June 2006 to July 2008, and these were the subjects of our study. All the patients underwent curative radical gastrectomy and lymph node dissection. A final diagnosis was made for all the patients by the histology of the surgical specimens. Results: Both PET/CT and enhanced CT showed similar sensitivity for detecting regional lymph node metastasis (32.6% vs 39.5%, respectively). PET/CT was more accurate than enhanced CT for detecting regional lymph node metastasis (67.2% vs 63.0%, respectively), and PET/CT showed better specificity (86.8% vs 76.3, respectively) and a better positive predictive value (PPV) (58.3% vs 48.6%, respectively). PET/CT showed better specificity (98.0% vs 88.2%, respectively) and accuracy (79.4% vs 73.9%, respectively) than enhanced CT for detecting early gastric cancer. PET/CT showed better specificity (64.0% vs 52.0%, respectively), a better PPV (60.9% vs 57.1%), a better negative predictive value (NPV) (48.5% vs 46.4%, respectively) and better accuracy (53.6% vs 51.8%, respectively) than enhanced CT for detecting advanced gastric cancer. Conclusion: FDG-PET/CT is more usefulness than enhanced CT for making the preoperative diagnosis of regional LN metastases from gastric cancers.

서 론 : 미세갑상선유두상암종 환자에서 불필요한 예방적 중앙 림프절절제술을 피하기 위해서 림프절 전이를 수술 전에 예측하는 수단이 필요하다. 림프관 생성 및 성장의 조절에 VEGF-C/D, VEGFR-3 pathway, podoplain이 관여된다는 사실이 밝혀져 있다. 림프관 생성 및 성장과 관련된 인자인 VEGF-C/D, podoplanin에 대한 면역조직화학염색과 반정량적 분석을 통해 미세갑상선유두상암종에서 림프절전이와의 관련성을 확인하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 2006년 9월부터 2008년 6월까지 본원에서 미세갑상선유두상암종으로 진단받고 1인 술자에 의해 갑상선 전 절제술 및 예방적 중앙 림프절절제술을 받은 104명의 환자 중 중앙 림프절 전이가 있었던 환자와 없었던 환자를 각각 25명씩 무작위로 선별하여 종양부위에 면역화학염색을 실시하여 림프관생성인자의 발현 정도를 비교하였다. 결 과 : 대상군 50예 중 VEGF-C/D는 50예(100%) 모두 발현이 되었고 podoplanin은 33예(66%)에서 발현이 되었다. 그 중 VEGF-C는 10예(20%)에서 약한 양성, 37예(74%)에서 중등도 양성, 3예(6%)에서 강한 양성소견을 보였고 VEGF-D는 9예(18%)에서 약한 양성, 37예(74%)에서 중등도 양성, 4예(8%)에서 강한 양성소견을 보였다. 중앙 림프절 전이 음성 환자 군과 양성 환자 군으로 분류하였을 때 VEGF-C/D의 발현율의 차이는 p-value가 각각 0.48, 1.00으로 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 50예 전체를 대상으로 하여 종양의 개수, 최대크기, 검출된 전체 림프절의 수, 양성 림프절의 수, 주변조직 침범여부에 따른 VEGF-C/D의 발현도 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. Podoplanin의 경우 염색 여부에 따라 양성군과 음성군으로 나누어 분석하였을 때 종양의 개수, 최대크기, 검출된 림프절의 수, 양성 림프절의 수, 주변조직 침범여부도 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 결 론 : VEGF-C/D는 대상군 전체(100%)에서 발현이 되었고 podoplanin은 66%에서 발현이 되었다. 림프관 생성인자로 알려진 VEGF-C/D및 podoplanin이 미세갑상선유두상암종에서 많이 발현이 되는 것으로 보아 위 인자들이 림프절 전이를 일으키는 인자 중 하나로 생각된다. 하지만 미세갑상선유두상암종에서 중앙 림프절 전이를 예측할 수 있는 인자로 부적합 한 것으로 생각되며 향후 더 많은 증례를 통해 관련성 여부에 대한 연구가 필요하고 또 다른 인자의 관련성에 대해서 연구가 필요하겠다.

Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) is bacterial infection, with more than half of the world population infected and oral cavity is considered second reservoir of H. pylori infection. The purpose of this study was to evaluate role of oral cavity in H. pylori infection by comparison of the mode H. pylori infection in oral cavity and stomach. We recruited 100 subjects without systemic disease including gastrointestinal disease. Samples in oral cavity taken on gingival sulcus fluid(GSF) of lower left central incisor and 1st molar, area of buccal mucosa, dorsum of the tongue, palatal and saliva. We analyzed by Nested polymerase chain reaction(PCR) for oral infection and Urea Breath Test(UBT) for gastric infection. The results were as follows : 1. Among these 100 subjects, 36(36%) were positive by Nested PCR and 33(33%) were positive by UBT(p>0.05). 2. In detection rate of H. pylori in sites taken sample, 11(11%), 8(8%), 9(9%), 3(3%), 9(9%), 7(7%) were positive on GSF of lower left central incisor and 1st molar, area of buccal mucosa, dorsum of the tongue, palatal and saliva, respectively. Statical significance was observed in samples of GSF of lower left central incisor and area of dorsum of the tongue(p<0.05). 3. In comparison of the mode of H. pylori infection in oral cavity and stomach by analytic method, positive in oral cavity and stomach was 10(10%), negative in oral cavity and positive in stomach was 23(23%), positive in oral cavity and negative in stomach was 26(26%) and negative in oral cavity and stomach was 41(41%)(p>0.05). Conclusively, we can guess that oral H. pylori is not associated with gastric H. pylori infection and normal flora.

Purpose; Dysregulation of gastric epithelial cell proliferation and apoptosis are important in development of ulcer, atrophy and neoplasia in Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of infection of H. pylori on gastric epithelial cell proliferation and apoptosis in children. Methods: Histological grading by updated Sydney system, PCNA immunostaining and TUNEL method were performed in H. pylori positive (N=58) and negative (N=40) gastric biopsy specimens. Results: In H. pylori positive children, there were significantly higher grade of polymorphonuclear neutrophil activity (P=0.000), chronic inflammation (P=0.000), epithelial damage (P=0.000) and lymphoid follicles (P=0.000) than in H. pylori negative children. Intestinal metaplasia was not seen in H. pylori positive children. PCNA index was significantly different between H. pylori positive children ($67.8{\pm}18.13$) and H. pylori negative children ($54.8{\pm}14.46$, P=0.000). There was positive correlation between PCNA index and H. pylori density (r=0.277, P=0.007), polymorphonuclear neutrophil activity (r=0.280, P=0.007) and chronic inflammation (r=0.284, P=0.006). Apoptosis index of H. pylori positive children ($0.44{\pm}0.447$) was significantly higher than of H. pylori negative children ($0.14{\pm}0.196$, P=0.000). There was positive correlation between apoptosis index and H. pylori density (r=0.472, P=0.000), polymorphonuclear neutrophil activity (r=0.370, P=0.001) and chronic inflammation (r=0.483, P=0.000). There was positive correlation between PCNA index and apoptosis index (r=0.353, P=0.003). Conclusion: The PCNA and apoptosis index in H. pylori positive children were significantly higher than in H. pylori negative children. This study suggested that gastric epithelial cell proliferation and apoptosis are important to pathogenesis of H. pylori infection in children.

Immunohistochemistry combined with electron microscopy was employed to investigate the distribution of substance P -immunoreactive(SP-IR) nerve fibers in the tracheal submucosal gland of cats. SP-IR nerve fibers were found to form network around the glands. Numerous varicosities were also detected within the basement membrane of the acini and secretory tubules. All the intraglandular varicosities showed close spatial contact with serous cells, mucous cells and myoepithelial cells. Our findings suggest that SP-induced mucus secretion from tracheal submucosal glands in cats may be caused not only by glandular contractile response of myoepithelial cells but also by direct stimulation to both serous and mucous cells.

Background : Differentiation of malignity and benignity is crucial for management of solitary pulmonary nodule(SPN). Clinical parameters such as patient's age, nodule size, smoking history, doubling time, typical calcification in X-ray and CT findings have been reported as helpful in this purpose. However, in most cases, these parameters are not conclusive. Glucose metabolism is increased in cancer tissues including lung cancer tissues. After uptake of 2-[F-18]-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose(FDG), the glucose analogue, by cancer cell, FDG is trapped in the cell without further metabolism after phosphorylation. Thus, hypermetabolic focus in FDG-positron emission tomography (PET) imaging suggest malignancy. We evaluated the diagnostic efficacy of FDG-PET imaging in distinguishing malignant and benign SPN. Methods : We evaluated 28 patients with SPN from Jan. 1995 to Jan. 1997. CT scan of chest and whole-body FDG-PET imaging were performed in all patients. Histologic diagnosis was confirmed by transthoracic fine needle aspiration and biopsy, bronchoscopic biopsy and open thoracotomy. Results : Of the 28 SPN's, 22 nodules were malignant and 6 nodules were benign. FDG-PET imaging diagnosed all malignant nodules correctly as positive, and diagnosed 4 of 6 benign nodules correctly as negative. One tuberculous granuloma and one aspergilloma showed hypennetabolic focus and were diagnosed falsely positve with FDG-PET imaging. In the diagnosis of SPN with FDG-PET, sensitivity and specificity were 100% and 66.7%, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 92% and 100%. Conclusion : FDG-PET imaging is highly useful noninvasive diagnostic tool in distinguishing between malignant SPN and benign SPN.
