폐암을 집단 검진으로 조기 진단하려는 노력은 현재까지 뚜렷한 성과를 얻지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 미국의 국립암연구소에서 실시한 흉부엑스선 촬영과 객담세포진 검사를 이용한 폐암의 집단 검진 결과는 검진군에서 대조군보다 유의하게 진단율이 높았으며 절제율도 더 높았고 5년 생존율도 향상시킬 수 있었다. 그러나 폐암을 조기 진단하기 위한 집단 검진의 궁극적인 목표인 사망률을 감소시키지는 못하였다. 최근에는 미국 국립암 연구기관에서 실시했던 결과에 대한 해석이 다양하여 아직까지도 폐암 조기 진단에 있어서 흉부액스선촬영과 객담세포진검사의 의의에 관한 결론에 대해서는 논란이 되고 있다. 1993년부터 새로운 집단 검진에 관한 연구가 진행중에 있어서 그 결과가 나올 때까지는 흉부엑스선촬영과 객담세포진검사를 이용한 집단 검진의 의의에 대한 결과는 기다려 보아야 할 것이다. 분자생물학적으로 폐암을 조기 검진하기 위한 검체로는 혈액보다는 객담이 훨씬 적절하고 합리적인 검체이다. 폐암의 발생은 가장 먼저 기관지 상피 세포에서 일어나서 암화 과정의 여러 단계에서 다양한 종양 표지자가 객담에 섞여 나오기 때문에 이 표지자를 객담에서 측정하는 것이 훨씬 합리적인 조기 진단법이 될 수 있다. 동시에 폐암을 집단 검진으로 조기 진단하기 위해서는 종양 표지자를 대량으로 측정하기 위한 자동측정법도 개발되어야 할 것이다. 암을 예방하기 위하여는 여러면에서 방안이 연구되어야 한다. 즉 암발생의 가능성이 높은 대상을 선태하여야 하며 초기에 집단 검진으로 진단을 할 수 있어야 하고, 이러한 검진으로 추적 검사가 가능하여야 하며 마지막으로 결과를 판정할 수 있어야 한다. 이 가운데 현재까지 유일하게 실시할 수 없는 것은 조기 진단으로 사용할 수 있는 뚜렷한 종양 표지자가 없는 것이다. 이와 같이 현재까지는 폐암을 조기 진단하기 위한 특이한 표지자는 없으나 앞으로 폐암 발생 기전의 여러 단계가 체계적으로 밝혀진다면 그 과정에서 중요한 표지자들이 밝혀질 것이다. 그리고 이들을 간단하게 검사할 수 있는 검사법도 밝혀져 폐암 조기 진단의 궁극적 목적인 폐암으로 인한 사망률을 감소시킬 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Purpose: Lymph node metastasis is an important factor in determining prognosis and therapeutic options for early gastric cancer (EGC) patients. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-C and D are known as lymphangiogenic factors, and cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 is thought to play a role in lymph node metastasis in gastric carcinoma. This study was designed to determine whether the expression of VEGF-C, VEGF-D, and COX-2 is associated with clinicopathologic factors, especially lymph node metastasis in EGCs invading the submucosa. Materials and Methods: Tissue samples were obtained from 85 Patients undergoing standard gastrectomy with lymph node dissection between 1991 and 2007 in the Department of Surgery of Daejeon St. Mary's Hospital in Daejeon, Korea. All patients were diagnosed with gastric cancers and submucosal invasion. We examined the expression of VEGF-C, VEGF-D, and COX-2 using immunohistochemical methods. Results: Of the 85 patients, 16 (18.8%) had lymph node metastasis. VEGF-C, VEGF-D, and COX-2 were positively expressed in 34.1% (29/85), 22.3% (19/85), and 37.6% (32/85) of the patients. VEGF-C and COX-2 expression was significantly correlated with lymph node metastasis (P<0.05). A positive correlation existed between VEGF-C and COX-2 expression (P< 0.001). Conclusion: VEGF-C and COX-2 expression is associated with lymph node metastasis in gastric cancer with submucosal invasion. VEGF-C and COX-2 may thus be predictive markers for lymph node metastasis in EGC patients with submucosal invasion.

Renal artery injury is a rare complication in blunt trauma, but can cause devascularization of the kidney, leading to renal failure. It requires early diagnosis and management. The treatment of renal artery injury still remains controversial, but recent studies have reported the successful treatment outcome with endovascular stent placement. Nevertheless, there is no standard treatment strategy in cases of pediatric patients. We report a case of a 16-year-old girl with right renal artery occlusion associated with a grade IV liver laceration. She was treated with only balloon angioplasty, and the kidney showed marked improvement of parenchymal perfusion with normalized renal function. Treatment with only balloon angioplasty can be a treatment option in pediatric patients with renal artery injury.

To investigate the varietal differences of weed competitive functions under the three different seasons of transplanting, rice cultivars Milyang 23 and Sadominori were used with seven weeding methods, namely, weedy check, weed-free, once weeding at 3, 6, 9, 12 weeks after transplanting, and two times weeding at 3 and 9 weeks after transplanting, respectively. As a result, weeding stages and times for the proper weeding efficacies and reasonable rice productivities by respective weed group and total weed flora were estimated. Also, the constructive characteristics for yield formations under the different competitive conditions as affected by various cropping patterns were discussed.

Adenoid cystic carcinoma is an uncommon histologic variant of adenocarcinoma which usually arises from the salivary, lacrimal, or other exocrine glands. Characteristics of adenoid cystic carcinoma are its potential for extending long distance submucosally and for perineural invasion. It grows slowly and may have a prolonged course before diagnosis and after treatment. Recently, we have experienced 2 cases of adenoid cystic carcinoma arising from main bronchus and trachea. One case was 58 years old female patient. Her symptoms were productive cough with dyspnea. She has been history of shortness of breath, wheezing and cough during 4 years, which was initially diagnosed as bronchial asthma. The tumor was located on the left main stem bronchus which was obstructed the lumen nearly complete, by CT demonstration. Tissue diagnosis was confirmed as adenoid cystic carcinoma by bronchoscopic biopsy. The patient underwent radiation to relieve a bronchial stenosis caused by her tumor. The patient has remained well and is asymptomatic without evidence of clinical recurrence. The other case was 25 year old female. She complained shortness of breath and inspiratory difficulty during sleep. The tumor was located in upper trachea, which protruded from the posterior wall of the trachea and obstructed the lumen nearly complete, by CT demonstration. Tissue diagnosis was confirmed as adenocystic carcinoma by rigid bronchoscopic biopsy. The patient was underwent operation for removal of the mass and received radiotherapy. The patient has remained well are following up now.

Tsutsugamushi disease is an acute febrile disease caused by Rickettsia tsutsugamushi, and which has been reported with increasing frequency through the nation since 1986. We experienced 21 cases of Tsutsugamushi disease diagnosed with serologic test occuring in Taegu city and Kyungpook province during October-November, 1989. The results of survey are as follow. 1) Of 21 cases, 12(57%) were males and 9(43%) were females, and the peak incidence was the 4th decade. 2) The outbreak was in October to November and the peak incidence was in October. 3) The most frequent symptoms were fever and chill(100%), myalgia(95%), headache(90%). Eschar and rash were observed in 18 patients(86%) and the eschar was detected in all over the body, especially thorax(33%) and lower extremity(22%). 4) Laboratory features were SGOT elevation(83%), SGPT elevation(61%), LDH elevation(67%). leukocytosis (38%). 5) Indirect immunofluorescent antibody test was done m 18 patients and the antibody titer was above 1 : 320 in all patients. 6) The chloramphenicol, tetracycline or doxycycline regimens were very effective and mean duration of defervescence from iniation of therapy was 1.3 days. 7) The complication such as meningitis or shock, was not seen.

Bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacearum is a major disease that affects tomato plants widely. R. solanacearum is a soil born pathogen which limits the disease control measures. Therefore, breeding of resistant tomato variety to this disease is important. To identify the susceptible variety, degree of disease resistance has to be determined. In this study, micro sap flow sensor is used for accurate prediction of resistant degree. The sensor is designed to measure sap flow and water use in stems of plants. Using this sensor, the susceptibility to bacterial wilt disease can be identified two to three days prior to the onsite of symptoms after innoculation of R. solanacearum. Thus, this find of diagnosis approach can be utilized for the early detection of bacterial wilt disease.

Objectives: This study aimed to assess the status of Scrub typhus, Leptospirosis and HFRS(hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome) among farmers with febrile illness. Methods: We involved a total of 841 farmers who had febrile illness(508 and 333 village residents were, respectively, three and four district of Gyeongju city) selected during autumn of 2014 and 2015. Data were collected by survey questionnaires and blood sample examination. Results: Serum response rate for Scrub typhus and Leptospirosis was 1.5% each and 1.9% for HFRS. Serum response rate for Scrub typhus was significantly higher for tick-bite cases(38.5%), while Leptospirosis was significantly higher for those who were in fruit-planting work(23.1%). Similarly, serum response rate was significantly higher for HFRS who were working in venyl green house work(25.0%). Conclusions: Government authority should develop effective and efficient preventive strategies to create awareness of infectious diseases among farmers. Extending information, education and communication be reached to farmers that could change their perception and help early diagnosis and treatment and reduce the disease burden and its complication.
