기정맥계는 후방 흉부의 중요한 부속 정맥이며 측부순환으로서 중대한 역할을 한다. 그러나, 그 중요성에도 불구하고 임상적 혹은 영상의학적으로 종종 간과된다. 본 임상화보에서는, 기정맥계의 정상 해부학에 대해 알아보고, 기정맥계에서 볼 수 있는 다양한 선천 변이와 후천적 질환에 따른 구조 변화의 CT 소견에 대하여 검토하고자 한다.

The essence of meridian collateral and acupoints is an overall physiologic unction with the level of multiple unctional states. However it is a pity that until present, so in this paper described about some experimental results of physical reactions of meridian and acupoints. In order to verify meridian pathway and channel theory of energy in body. It is suppose that substance of meridian is pathway channel of the meridian materials. In basic examination, It was analyzed spectrum of reflection waves after beat or continuos vibrate to meridian point and non-meridian point meridian line and non-meridian line. The characteristics of reflection waves similar to flow channel in hydrodynamic. So it be able to suggest that the meridian is pathway and channel in body.

Objectives: This study was carried out to analyse the skin of the Hand lesser yang in human. Methods: The Hand lesser yang meridian was labeled with latex in the body surface of the cadaver, subsequently dissecting a body among superficial fascia and muscular layer in order to observe internal structures. Results: This study has come to the conclusion that a depth of the skin has encompassed a common integument and a immediately below superficial fascia, and this study established the skin boundary with adjacent structures such as relative muscle, tendon as compass. The skin area of the Hand lesser yang in human is as follows: The skin close to the ulnar root angle of 4th finger nail, above between 4th and 5th metacarpal bone, between extensor digit. minimi tendon(t.) and extensor digit. t., extensor digit. m(muscle). at 2, 4, 7 cun above dorsal carpal striation, triceps brachii m. t., deltoid m., trapezius m., just around the ear, upper orbicularis oculi m. Conclusions: The skin area of the Hand lesser yang from anatomical viewpoint seems to be the skin area outside the superficial fascia or the muscle involved in the pathway of the Hand lesser yang meridian, the collateral meridian, the meridian muscle, with the condition that we consider adjacent skins.

Notch signaling is a key regulator of neuronal fate during embryonic development, but its function in the adult brain is still largely unknown. Mind bomb-2 (Mib2) is an essential positive regulator of the Notch pathway, which acts in the Notch signal-sending cells. Therefore, genetic deletion of Mib2 in the mouse brain might help understand Notch signaling-mediated cell-cell interactions between neurons and their physiological function. Here we show that deletion of Mib2 in the mouse brain results in impaired hippocampal spatial memory and contextual fear memory. Accordingly, we found impaired hippocampal synaptic plasticity in Mib2 knock-out (KO) mice; however, basal synaptic transmission did not change at the Schaffer collateral-CA1 synapses. Using western blot analysis, we found that the level of cleaved Notch1 was lower in Mib2 KO mice than in wild type (WT) littermates after mild foot shock. Taken together, these data suggest that Mib2 plays a critical role in synaptic plasticity and spatial memory through the Notch signaling pathway.

Objectives: This study was carried out to concrete the concept of Hand Gworeum Skin referred in Suwen of Huangdi Neijing. Methods: The Hand Gworeum Meridian was labeled with latex in the body surface of the cadaver, subsequently dissecting a superficial fascia and muscular layer in order to observe internal structures. Results: Skin histologically encompasses a common integument and a immediately below superficial fascia, this study established the skin boundary with adjacent structures such as relative muscle, tendon as its compass. The realm of the Hand Gworeum Skin is as follows: The skin close to the nipple on the 4th intercostal space, the interceps of biceps brachii muscle, the cubital surface at ulnad of bicipital aponeurosis, the anterior surface of the forearm, between flexor carpi radialis and palmaris longus(from wrist crease to 5chon above), the palm between the 3rd and 4th metacarpals on the cross part with the palm crease, the radiod from the middle finger nail(or the end of middle finger). The realm of the Hand Gworeum Skin is situated on between Hand Taeeum Skin and Hand Soeum Skin in front of arm. Conclusion: The realm of Hand Gworeum Skin from the anatomical viewpoint seems to be the skin area outside the superficial fascia or the muscle involved in the pathway of the Hand Gworeum Meridian vessel, Collateral Meridian vessel, and Meridian muscle, being considered adjacent vessels or nerves at the same time.

The sensory system is developed and optimized by experiences given in the early phase of life in association with other regions of the nervous system. To date, many studies have revealed that deprivation of specific sensory experiences can modify the structure and function of the central nervous system; however, the effects of sensory overload remains unclear. Here we studied the effect of overloading the taste sense in the early period of life on the synaptic plasticity of rat hippocampus and somatosensory cortex. We prepared male and female Sprague Dawley rats with ad libitum access to a 0.1% saccharin solution for 2 hrs per day for three weeks after weaning on postnatal day 22. Saccharin consumption was slightly increased in males compared with females; however, saccharin intake did not affect chow intake or weight gain either in male or in female rats. We examined the effect of saccharin-intake on long term potentiation (LTP) formation in hippocampal Schaffer collateral pathway and somatosensory cortex layer IV - II/III pathways in the 6-week old saccharin-fed rats. There was no significant difference in LTP formation in the hippocampus between the control group and saccharin-treated group in both male and female rats. Also in the somatosensory cortex, we did not see a significant difference in LTP among the groups. Therefore, we conclude that saccharin-intake during 3~6 weeks may not affect the development of physiological function of the cortical and hippocampal synapses in rats.

The basal ganglia network has been implicated in the control of adaptive behavior, possibly by integrating motor learning and motivational processes. Both positive and negative reinforcement appear to shape our behavioral adaptation by modulating the function of the basal ganglia. Here, we examined a transgenic mouse line (G2CT) in which synaptic transmissions onto the medium spiny neurons (MSNs) of the basal ganglia are depressed. We found that the level of collaterals from direct pathway MSNs in the external segment of the globus pallidus (GPe) ('bridging collaterals') was decreased in these mice, and this was accompanied by behavioral inhibition under stress. Furthermore, additional manipulations that could further decrease or restore the level of the bridging collaterals resulted in an increase in behavioral inhibition or active behavior in the G2CT mice, respectively. Collectively, our data indicate that the striatum of the basal ganglia network integrates negative emotions and controls appropriate coping responses in which the bridging collateral connections in the GPe play a critical regulatory role.

기능적 단심증에 대한 Fontan 술식은 수술 방법에 많은 변형을 거치면서 그 임상 성적 또한 향상되어 왔다. 그럼에도 불구하고 추적과정 중에 발생하는 치명적인 합병증은 장기 성적에 많은 영향을 미친다고 할수 있다. 따라서 이러한 합병증에 대한 수술적 치료가 필요하며 빈도 또한 증가하고 있다. 대상 및 방법: 1988년 4월부터 20n년 1월까지 Fontan 수술 후에 발생한 합병증에 대한 수술적 치료를 받은 16명의 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 재수술 당시 평균 연령은 8.8$\pm$5.5년이었다. Fontan수술에 적용된 술식은 심방-폐동맥 연결술 및 완전 체정맥-폐동맥 연결술이 각각 8예로 완전 체정맥-폐동맥 연결술 중 5예는 심장내 외측터널, 3예는 심장외 외측터널을 시행하였다. 이 중 천공을 추가한 경우가 5예 있었다. 재수술의 적응증은 잔존 우좌단락 6예, 폐정맥 협착 3예, 심방 조동 3예, 방실판막 폐쇄부전 2예, Fontan 유출로의 협착 1예, 단백상실성 장병증이 1예 있었다. 결과: 조기 및 만기 사망이 각각 3예 있었다. 잔존 단락이 있었던 환자에서는 2예에서 단락 부위를 일차 봉합하였고 2예에서는 체정맥과 폐정맥을 분리하기 위한 심방내 중격을 재형성하였으며 2명의 환자에서는 심장내 외측통로 및 부분 양심실 교정술로 전환하였다. 폐정맥이나 Fontan유출로의 협착이 있었던 4명의 환자에서는 3예에서 협착 부위 확장술을 시행하였고 1예에서는 좌폐 전절제술을 시행하였다. 심방 조동이 발생한 3예는 모두 심방-폐동맥 연결술에서 심장내 외측터널로 술식을 전환하였다. 2예의 방실판막 폐쇄부전 환자는 기계 판막 치환술을 시행받았으며 단백소실성 장병증이 발생한 1예는 개흉술을 통해 대동맥-폐동맥 측부 혈행을 폐쇄하였다. 4명의 환자에서 부정맥 치료의 추가적인 방법으로 냉동 절제술을 동시에 시행하였다. 결론: Fontan수술 후에 발생하는 합병증은 치료가 어렵고 상당한 유병율 및 사망률을 가지고 있다. 그러나 Fontan 생리에 대한 보다 깊은 이해와 수술 술기의 발전은 Fontan 수술 자체뿐 아니라 그 합병증의 치료 가능성을 증대시켰다. 비록 모든 환자에서 만족할 만한 결과를 얻지는 못하였으나 이러한 환자에 대한 적절한 외과적 치료로 생존환자에서 증상의 완화 및 기능적 분류의 호전을 볼 수 있었다.
