  • 1984년 11월에 쩐남 장홍군 장흥읍에서 구입한 은어에서 자연감염된 요꼬가와흠충의 피낭유충을 분리하여 개 2마리에 실험감염시키고, 감염후 4주일 및 8주일에 도살하여 성충을 얻었다. 그 과정중에서 감염 제8주에 도살한 개의 회장에서 인eterephyepsis continua로 동정한 충체 3마죄를 요꼬가와흡충과 함께 얻었다. 이들 충체는 은어에서 분리하여 감염시킨 괴낭유충 140,000개중에 섞여 있었던 것에서 유래 하였다고 판단하였다. 따라서 은어를 노. continua의 제이중간숙주로 추가하는 것이 타당하다고 생각한다. 은어가 강 하구 반염수대에서 겨울철을 넘기거나 어린시절을 보내므로 그때에 적게나마 감염되는 것으로 생각하였다. Heterephyepsis continua(Onji et Nishio, 1916)의 우리 말 이름을 "긴이형휸충"으로 할 것을 제의한다.

  • During 8 April 1983 to 9 April 1985, a total of 181 domestic cats (Felis catus domestica Linnaeus) of unknown localities in Korea were purchased at Seoul Chung-ang market, and the internal organs were dissected for helminth infections. In the results, three kinds of trematodes of family Heterophyidae (Ohdner, 1914) were obtained from small intestine of domestic cats and identified as follows; five adult worms of Heterophyopsis continua (Onji et Nishio, 1916) from three hosts, two hundreds and twenty three adult worms of Pygidiopsis summa Onji et Nishio, 1916 from seven hosts and twenty six adult worms of Heterophyes heterophyes nocens (Onji et Nishio, 1916) from three hosts. Among them, Heterophyopsis continua and Pygidiopsis summa had not been proved as natural infections of cats in Korea.

  • Two cases of natural human infection by Heterophyopsis continua (Heterophyidae) were identified by collection of adult worms in 1983 in Korea. And in order to know the source of infection a study on fish intermediate hosts was performed along the southwestern coastal areas. The cases were 21 and 50 year old males residing in southern coastal areas. They had the clinical complaints of non-specific gastrointestinal symptoms such as epigastric pain and one of them also complained the discharge of tapeworm segments. Praziquantel in single dose of 10~15mg/kg was given followed by purgation with magnesium salt and 2 and 46 specimens of H. continua were collected from the diarrheal stools. They said to have eaten raw ilesh of several kinds of brackish water fishes. The results of fish examination for metacercarial infection were as follows: I. Seventeen (663.0%) out of 27 perches (Lateolabrax japonicus) and 10 (29.4%) out of 34 gobies (Acantkogobius flavimanus) harboured the metacercariae but none of 42 mullets (Mugil cepkalus) were found to harbour them. 2. The average metacercarial density in perches was 55.1 and 18.7 per fish respectively. And the majority of the metacercariae were collected from the muscle of body portions in these fishes. 3. After the metaeercariae were experimentally fed to two rats and one young dog. two adult worms were recovered from the dog while none from the rats. These worms were also identified as H. continua. From the results it was concluded that the brackish water flshes which the human cases said to have eaten were the source of infection.

  • The growth and developmental pattern of H. continua was observed after experimental infection of their metacercariae to chicks. The recovery rate of worms from the chicks at 1 to 28 days post-infection(PI) was 12.8% in average. The rate remained fairly high for early 4 days of infection but decreased thereafter rapidly till 28 days PI. Most of the nukes, 91.9%, were recovered from the ileum of the chicks. In metacercariae, genital organs such as the ovary, testes, seminal vesicle, seminal receptacle and genital sucker were recognizable. At one day PI Mehlis'gland appeared, and at 2 days follicular vitellaria were observed. At 3 days PI, eggs were formed in the uterine tubule and increased in number as the worm grew old. The worms reached $2,990{\;}{\mu\textrm{m}}$ in length and $525{\;}{\mu\textrm{m}}$ in width at 28 days PI. Genital organs developed rapidly in early stages of infection but slowly thereafter to 28 days Pl, whereas non-genital organs developed steadily through the infection period. It was proved by this experiment that chicks should be a moderately suitable final host of H. continua.

  • In this paper, with the utilization of a three-dimensional version of Leibniz’s rule, the procedure of deriving the time rate of change of an energy functional for axially moving continua is investigated. It will be shown that the method in [14], which describes the way of getting the time rate of change of an energy functional in Eulerian description, and subsequent results in [10, 11] are not complete. The key point is that the time derivatives at boundaries in the Eulerian description of axially moving continua should take into account the velocity of the moving material itself. A noble way of deriving the time rate of change of the energy functional is proposed. The correctness of the proposed method has been confirmed by other approaches. Two examples, one-dimensional axially moving string and beam equations, are provided for the purpose of demonstration. The results following the procedure proposed and the results in [14] are compared.

  • In the course of study of dendroids, Czuba [3] introduced a notion of $R^{i}$ -continua which is a generalization of R-arc [1]. He showed a new class of non-contractible dendroids, namely of dendroids which contain an $R^{i}$ -continuum. Subsecequently Charatonik [2] attempted to extend the notion into hyperspace C(X) of metric continuum X. In so doing, there were some oversights in extending some of the results relating $R^{i}$ -continua of dendroids for metric continua. In fact, Proposition 1 in [2] is false (see example C below) and his proof of Theorem 6 in [2] is not correct (Take Example 4 in [4] with K = [e,e'] as an $R^{1}$-continuum of X and work it out. Then one seens that K not .mem. K as he claimed otherwise.). The aims of this paper are to introduce a notion of w-regular convergence which is weaker than 0-regular convergence and to prove that the w-regular convergence of a sequence {Xn}$^{\infty}$$_{n=1}$ to $X_{0}$ of subcontinua of a metric continuum X is a necessary and sufficient for the sequence {C( $X_{n}$)}$^{\infty}$$_{n=1}$ to converge to C( $X_{0}$ ), and also to prove that if a metric continuum X contains an $R^{i}$ -continuum with w-regular convergence, then the hyperspace C(X) of X contains $R^{i}$ -continuum.inuum.uum.

  • The third human case of natural infection by Heterophvopsis continuo in Korea was found in Chinju, Kyongsangnam-do. The case was a 53-year-old mn. He used to eat raw brackish and fresh water fish. After praziquantel treatment and purgation, H. continua were collected from the diarrheal stool together with Metononimw vokognwai, Heterophves nocens and Echinostona hokense. His clinical complaints were indigestion, epigastric discomport, poor appetite and fatigue. The complaints were considered rather due to heavy M. Wokoscwci infection.

  • Fishborne zoonotic metacercariae have not been reported from brackish water and marine fish from Vietnam waters although these parasites are common in the country's freshwater fish. Both wild-caught and cultured grouper (Epinephelus coioides and Epinephelus bleekeri), and mullet (Mugil cephalus) from brackish and marine waters located in Khanh Hoa province in central coastal Vietnam were examined, and found positive for zoonotic trematode metacercariae. From grouper, Heterophyopsis continua and Procerovum varium were recovered. The prevalence of H. continua ranged from 2.0 to 6.0% and that for P. varium ranged from 11.6 to 15.8%. Mullet were infected with Pygidiopsis summa and H. continua; both of these species are new records for Vietnam. The prevalence of P. summa in mullet was generally high, ranging from 17.6 to 75.5%, and was significantly higher than the prevalence of H. continua (2.5 to 32.4%). There were no significant differences in the prevalence of metacercariae between grouper from natural or cultured habitats, indicating that the highest risk of infection occurs in the wild-caught state prior to their placement in culture. Further, there was no difference in metacercarial prevalence between the 2 species of grouper. Infected wild-caught seed were only observed from January to October. Monthly variation in prevalence suggests seasonal variation in mullet infections occurs in this region with the highest transmission taking place from October to December. Basic investigations on the ecology and epidemiology of these intestinal flukes need to be carried out to determine their significance as a public health problem and the aspects of their biology that may be vulnerable to control interventions.

  • With increasing chronic patients due to population aging, many needs for pro-active health and medical treatment services are rising and desire for health care service is also rising due to national standard of living Especially population aging of Korea is faster than America, France and many other advanced nations, and a study states that arrival time of elderly population rates; 14%(aged society) to 20%(transcendental aged society)l only takes 8 years. In these reasons, health care industry for the next engine industry is reinforced. Many health care terminals are coming out and Continua Health Alliance is founded and working steadily based on Philips in 2006. In this paper, we suggest Gateway interface system for Continua accreditation to control vary communication by designing intelligent health care interface suitable for Continua international accreditation because there are many types of terminals and communication protocols.
