  • 많은 사람들이 에이즈의 첫 증상하면 붉은 반점을 흔하게 떠올리게 된다. 사실 이것은 에이즈 전구 증상이 아니고 사람면역결핍바이러스(HIV)에 감염되고 8-10년간의 무증상기를 거친 후에 인체의 면역기능이 바닥까지 망가졌을 때에 생기는 카포시 육종이라는 질병이다. HIV에 감염된 후에 면역기능이 파괴되면 본래 정상인에게 병을 일으키지 않는 미생물에 의해서 감염증이 생기고(이를 기회감염이라고 함)암도 발생하게 된다. 이와 같이 HIV 감염인에게 기회감염 혹은 암 등이 발생한 상태를 에이즈라고 한다. 어떤 사람들은 HIV에 감염된 후에 에이즈가 발병하기 전까지 아무런 증상을 느끼지 못하지만 일부는 에이즈 발병 전에 여러 가지 증상들(에이즈 전구 증상)을 겪게 된다. 오늘은 HIV에 감염된 후 에이즈가 발병하기 전에 발생할 수 있는 전구 증상들에 대해 알아보고자 한다.

  • Zoster-associated pain (ZAP) in patients with herpes zoster (HZ) may persist for a long time, occurring even years after the rash has healed. In this case, the patient is diagnosed as having postherpetic neuralgia (PHN). Prodromal symptoms can present with constant or intermittent pain, and are often accompanied by other symptoms, resulting in misdiagnosis and/or inappropriate treatment. The aim of this study is to investigate the characteristics of the prodromal symptoms of ZAP through a multicenter study in Korea.

  • Objectives : This study was designed to compare the demographic data, clinical characteristics, developmental delay, and psychological tests between childhood-onset and adolescent-onset schizophrenic in-patients. Methods Medical records of the 17 childhood-onset (very early onset) Schizophrenia and 16 adolescent-onset (early onset) Schizophrenia in-patients were reviewed. Sex, age, psychiatric past history, prodromal symptoms and period, subtype, co-morbid disease, developmental delay, prescribed drug and dosage, treatment response, intelligence quotient (IQ), and Rorschach test were evaluated. Results : The mean admission age of childhood-onset (very early onset) group and adolescent-onset (early onset) group were 12.69$({\pm}2.34)$ and 15.13$({\pm}1.04)$ years. The mean onset age of childhood-onset(very early onset) group and adolescent-onset (early onset) group were 10.79$({\pm}1.95)$ and 14.46$({\pm}0.82)$ years. The mean prodromal period of childhood-onset (very early onset) group and adolescent-onset (early onset) group were 15.94$({\pm}12.33)$ and 8.06$({\pm}6.10)$ month. The time to remission period of childhood-onset (very early onset) group and adolescent-onset (early onset) group were 50.58$({\pm}24.67)$ and 30.06$({\pm}18.04)$ days. Longer time to remission period in childhood-osnet (very early onset) group was associated with earlier age of onset. The mean of total IQ, performance IQ, verbal IQ were at an average level. Discussion : Childhood-onset (very early onset) group and adolescent-onset (early onset) group Schizophrenia had different clinical and psychological features including prodromal period, and IQ subtests.

  • This study was performed to evaluate the prevalence and risk factors of colonic polyps which is an established premalignant lesion and to provide basic data for the management of colon cancer in asymptomatic adults. The subjects of this study were 995 persons who underwent screening colonoscopy between January to December 2010 in health promotion center of an University Hospital located in Busan, and structured questionnaire, medical questionnaire, medical records were reviewed retrospectively. The data were analyzed by SPSS 18.0 program. Colonic polyps were found in 63.2% of the subjects. The prevalence rate of colonic polyps was significantly higher in males and it increased with age. Age, sex and exercise were found to be related independently to colonic polyps. Early detection of colonic polyps by colonoscopy is important for adults over 40 years, and it is necessary to advise such subjects to correct a wrong life-style in order to primarily prevent the development of colonic polyps.

  • Objectives:The primary purpose of this study is to understand the psychopathology of the victims of school violence in terms of early psychosis. By doing this, the early detection of psychosis among the victims is possible, and early detection may lead to early intervention. Methods:Two-thousand and nine-hundred seventy two students from 16 middle schools in Seoul were asked to fill out questionnaire comprised of popularity and intellectual and school status of Piers-Harris Children's Self Concept Inventory, Symptom Check List-90-Revised, and Ostracism Scale. The subjects whose scores upon Ostracism Scale were higher than average by two standard deviation were labeled as ‘Repelled and Isolated group', and subjects whose scores on popularity were significantly lower than average and whose scores on psychoticism of SCL-90-R were higher than average were defined as 'tentative early psychosis group'. Odds ratios were calculated from the numbers of subjects with and without high psychoticism scores and high ostracism scores. On the subjects of 'tentative early psychotic group', we examined every clinical characteristic and conducted correlation analysis and regression analysis in order to find out the risk factors and to construct theoretical model that explains the psychoticism scores. Results:The results were as follows:1) Total 157(5.3%) subjects were rated significantly higher on ostracism scale, and among them, 47 subjects(29.9%) were rated significantly higher than average on psychoticism scale, while only 50 subjects among 2,135 students who were rated within normal range showed significantly higher score on psychoticism scale. Odds ratio for psychotic group of isolated group were 17.82 and it was statistically significant. 2) Forty-seven subjects(31 boys, 16 girls) who were rated as they were unpopular and rejected from peers had significantly higher psychoticism scores. They were not significantly different from simply high psychoticism subjects in anxiety, social anhedonia scale, magical thinking, obsessivecompulsive symptoms, phobic anxiety, psychoticism, somatization, but showed higher ostracism scores and paranoid tendencies. Among school violence victims, who rated themselves unpopular and showed higher psychoticism scores, the psychoticism scores were mainly explained by anxiety, depression, hostility, interpersonal sensitivity, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, paranoid tendency, somatization scales($r^2=0.93$). Conclusion:Thus, it can be concluded that the subjects with higher ostracism score have the substantially high risk for psychosis development. By these results, we propose that school violence victims with anxiety, depression, hostility, interpersonal sensitivity, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, paranoid tendency, somatization should be tested individually considering school adjustment, attentional deficit, concept formation problems.

  • In comparison to parenchymal hamartoma, endobronchial hamartoma is rare benign neoplasm of the lung. Most parenchymal hamariomas are asymptomatic and are found incidentally. However, endobronchial hamartomas are frequently discovered through respiratory symptoms as a result of bronchial irritation or obstruction. A 47-year-old male patient was admitted to our hospital due to dry cough f month prior to admission. On bronchoscopic examination, a polypoid mass was found completely obliterating the anterior segmental bronchus of the left upper lobe. We report a case of endobronchial chondroid hamartoma, which was resected by anterior segmentectomy of the left upper lobe.

  • Streptococcus pyogenes, which is classified to Group A streptococcus (GAS), is one of the most common bacterial pathogens of the childhood infection. This organism can cause acute bacterial pharyngitis, impetigo, peritonsilar abscess or scarlet fever. It can also cause severe invasive diseases such as toxic shock syndrome, sepsis, septic arthritis, necrotizing pneumonia or necrotizing fasciitis. Usually, invasive GAS infections are accompanied by systemic symptoms and signs. Necrotizing pneumonia presents with acute fever, pleuritic chest pain and cough. The progress of disease is usually rapid and typically, pleural effusion develops in the early course of disease. Necrotizing fasciitis is relatively rare but once it has developed, it may be life threatening and cause necrosis of adjacent soft tissues with rapid progress. Clinical manifestations of parapharyngeal abscess are fever, dysphagia or bulging of pharyngeal wall. We experienced three cases of GAS infections which were presented atypically.

  • Because most conventional systems of medical diagnosis focus on small subsets of classes of diseases of particular human organs, it is difficult to diagnosis when dealing with symptoms are related to many diseases. The author proposes an intelligent diagnosis system for diseases associated with acute abdominal pain based on fuzzy relational products (IDS-DAAP) to implement conventional system (DS-DAAP). Compared with DS-DAAP, new approach with IDS-DAAP shows that the system proposed here improves diagnosis rate and reduces diagnosis time.

  • Paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia (PKD), previously referred to as movement-provoked seizures, is a rare neurological condition that is characterized by short duration dystonic or choreoathetotic movements precipitated by sudden movement, a change in position or hyperventilation. It can be difficult to distinguish this syndrome from seizures. We reported on three brothers in one family all of whom developed abnormal involuntary dystonic or choreoathetotic movement with a tingling or stiffness sensory aura. Evaluations of the patients included general physical examinations, endoclinologic, metabolic studies, chromosomal analysis, video electroencephalograms and brain MRI imaging. All of these studies were normal except for an arachnoid cyst found in one patient. All symptoms showed excellent response to oxcarbamazepine ($Trileptal^{(R)}$) or carbamazepine. Use of the video electroencephalogram can help differentiate familial PKD from seizures.

  • 1. 현재 보편적으로 참고가 되는 간질 환자의 운전 면허 허용의 기준과 관련 법규등을 요약하면 표-5와 같다. 2. 아직 어떤 국가에서는 간질환자의 차량운전을 무경련 기간에 상관없이 금하고 있으나, 대다수의 국가에서는 일정한 기간의 무경련의 존재가 면허 허용의 중요한 기준으로 삼고 있으며, 대략 1년간의 기간을 요구하고 있다. 그러나 간질은 그 특징상 1년 혹은 2년의 무경련후에도 경련이 발생될 수 있어 1년간의 무경련으로 면허 발급을 허가는 제도는 더 연구하여 보완할 필요가 있다. 3. 수면시 간질, 전구증상이 있는 복합 부분 간질, 단순 운동성 간질, 특수한 여건이나 자극에서 생기는 경련환자에게 선택적으로 운전면허 허용은 장시간 운전, 고속 운전, 심리적 육체적 과로상태에서 운전을 하는 경우 기존 경련을 심하게 유발하거나, 평소와 다른 상황에서 경련이 생길 수 있어 이런 환자들에게 일괄적으로 면허를 허용하기 보다는 세밀하게 분석하여 개인별로 판별하여야 하는 것이 바람직하다. 4. 환자의 능동적이고 성실한 경련보고와 아울러 경련발생 가능성이 높아 의사의 운전중단 처방을 수용하고 따르는 협조적인 환자의 자세가 매우 중요한데, 현재까지 환자의 성실한 경련보고와 의사의 조치에 대한 환자의 적극적인 수용자세가 해결되지 않고 있다.
