심장 혈관 협착증 환자의 경우 수술후 재협착을 방지하기 위하여 혈관내 방사선 조사를 실시하여 혈관내벽의 세포증식을 억제하는 방법이 시도되고 있다. 이를 위해 여러 가지 방사성 동위원소가 사용되고 있지만 한국원자력연구소에서 생산되는 Ho-166 도 그 중의 하나의 원소이다. 따라서 이 Ho-166 을 이용하여 혈관내 방사선조사를 할 경우 선량분포를 측정해 보았다. 혈관 내벽을 방사선 조사하는 방법은 풍선 혈관 카테터를 혈관내에 위치시키고 풍선 안에 액체 상태인 Ho-l66 동위원소를 채우고 일정시간 머물게 함으로써 시행된다. 선량분포를 측정하기 위하여 Solid water phantom 과 방사선 흡수선량에 따라 현상기에 현상을 하지 않아도 바로 필름 흑화도 변화를 볼 수 있는 GafChromic Film 을 사용하였다. 필름 흑화도 측정은 Videodensitometer를 이용하였으며 Co-60 빔에 검교정된 GafChromic 필름의 흑화도로 부터 풍선 혈관 카테터 안에 있는 Ho-166 동위원소에 의한 선량분포플 측정하였다. 먼저 Co-60 빔을 이용한 GafChromic Film 의 calibration curve를 얻었다. 흡수선량 대 필름 흑화도 곡선 (H-D curve)은 직선을 이루지 않았으며 이는 densitometer에 쓰이는 광원으로 부터 짐작되는 결과이다. H-D 곡선을 이용하여 Ho-l66이 채워진 풍선 혈관 카테터로 부터의 거리에 따른 선량분포를 얻었으며 카테터 표면으로 부터 1 mm 떨어진 거리에서의 선량은 풍선 표면에서의 약 20% 정도 였으며 5mm 떨어진 거리에서는 풍선 표면 선량의 약 1% 정도로 급속히 떨어짐을 볼 수 있었다. 혈관내 방사선 조사시 중요한 것은 혈관 내 벽에는 원하는 만큼의 방사선량을 주어야 하지만 주변의 정상조직에는 최소한의 손상을 유지해야 하므로 선량분포가 동위원소로 부터 떨어졌을 때 급속히 감소해야 한다는 것이다 따라서 이와같은 이유 때문에 베타선 방출 핵종 들이 많이 시도되고 있으며 동위원소 Ho-l66 도 혈관내벽 방사선조사를 위한 하나의 좋은 핵종으로 이용할 수 있다.

Background and Objective: Atherosclerosis is a diffuse, systemic disease that affects the coronary, cerebral, and peripheral arterial trees. Clopidogrel is widely used antiplatelet agent and its efficacy has been proven in cardiac and extracardiac vascular diseases, but it has several side effects. Therefore we investigated whether Sopunghwalhyeoltang, which is widely used for treating the blood stasis syndrome in traditional medicine, could decrease the side effect of antiplatelets and have a synergic effect. Methods & Materials: Male $ApoE^{(-/-)}$ mice were randomly divided into three different experimental groups, non-treated group (Control group), clopidogrel-treated group (CP group) and clopidogrel with Sopunghwalhyeol-tang treated group (CPS group). The control group was fed with only an atherogenic diet, the CP group an atherogenic diet plus clopidogrel 25mg/kg and the CPS group an atherogenic diet plus clopidogrel 25mg/kg with Sopunghwalhyeol-tang 100 mg/kg. We investigated plasma lipids with liver function test, and performed a histological investigation of liver and abdominal aorta. Results: 1. Photomicrographs of liver and abdominal aorta tissue showed lower histological injury and lipid accumulation in the CP and CPS groups than those in the Control group. 2. In the CPS group, plasma triglyceride level was significantly lower than in the Control and CP groups. 3. In the CPS group, the plasma aspartate aminotransferase (AST) level was significantly lower than in the CP group. Conclusions: The above results shows that a combined treatment of Sopunghwalhyeol-tang and clopidogrel have a synergic effect through inhibiting vessel injury and decrease the side effects of clopidogrel alone.

Background: Omega-3 long-chain (${\geq}C_{20}$) polyunsaturated fatty acids (${\omega}3$ LC-PUFA) confer important attributes to health-conscious meat consumers due to the significant role they play in brain development, prevention of coronary heart disease, obesity and hypertension. In this study, the ${\omega}3$ LC-PUFA content of raw and cooked Longissimus thoracis et lumborum (LTL) muscle from genetically divergent Australian prime lambs supplemented with dietary degummed crude canola oil (DCCO) was evaluated. Methods: Samples of LTL muscle were sourced from 24 first cross ewe and wether lambs sired by Dorset, White Suffolk and Merino rams joined to Merino dams that were assigned to supplemental regimes of degummed crude canola oil (DCCO): a control diet at 0 mL/kg DM of DCCO (DCCOC); 25 mL/kg DM of DCCO (DCCOM) and 50 mL/kg DCCO (DCCOH). Lambs were individually housed and offered 1 kg/day/head for 42 days before being slaughtered. Samples for cooked analysis were prepared to a core temperature of $70^{\circ}C$ using conductive dry-heat. Results: Within raw meats: DCCOH supplemented lambs had significantly (P < 0.05) higher concentrations of eicosapentaenoic (EPA, $20:5{\omega}3$) and EPA + docosahexaenoic (DHA, $22:6{\omega}3$) acids than those supplemented with DCCOM or DCCOC; Dorset sired lambs contained significantly (P < 0.05) more EPA and EPA + DHA than other sire breeds; diet and sire breed interactions were significant (P < 0.05) in affecting EPA and EPA + DHA concentrations. In cooked meat, ${\omega}3$ LC-PUFA concentrations in DCCOM (32 mg/100 g), DCCOH (38 mg/100 g), Dorset (36 mg/100 g), White Suffolk (32 mg/100 g), ewes (32 mg/100 g) and wethers (33 mg/100 g), all exceeded the minimum content of 30 mg/100 g of edible cooked portion of EPA + DHA for Australian defined 'source' level ${\omega}3$ LC-PUFA classification. Conclusion: These results present that combinations of dietary degummed crude canola oil, sheep genetics and culinary preparation method can be used as effective management tools to deliver nutritionally improved ${\omega}3$ LC-PUFA lamb to meat consumers.

For years, physicians and anatomists have been interested in the heart that has one functioning ventricle. Various terms have been suggested for this entity including single ventricle, common ventricle, double-inlet left ventricle, cor biatriatum triloculare, and primitive ventricle. In this report, the term "single ventricle" is utilized as suggested by Van Praagh, and is defined as that congenital cardiac anomaly in which a common or separate atrioventricular valves open into a ventricular chamber from which both great arterial trunks emerge. An outlet chamber, or infundibulum, may or may not be present and give rise to the origin of either of the great arteries. This definition excludes the entity of mitral and tricuspid atresia. An 11 year old cyanotic boy was admitted chief complaints of exertional dyspnea and frequent upper respiratory infection since 2 weeks after birth. He was diagnosed as inoperable cyanotic congenital heart disease, and remained without any corrective treatment up to his age of 11 year when he suffered from aggravation of symptoms and signs of congestive heart failure for 2 months before this admission. On 22nd of May 1979, he was admitted for total corrective operation under the impression of tricuspid atresia suggested by a pediatrician. Physical check revealed deep cyanosis with finger and toe clubbing, and grade V systolic ejection murmur with single second heart sound was audible at the left 3rd intercostal space. Development was moderate in height [135 cm] and weight[28Kg]. Routine lab findings were normal except increased hemoglobin [21.1gm%], hematocrit [64 %], and left axis deviation with left ventricular hypertrophy on EKG. Cardiac catheterization and angiography revealed 1-transposition of aorta, pulmonic valvular stenosis, double inlet of a single ventricle with d-loop, and normal atriovisceral relationship [Type III C solitus according to the classification of Van Praagh]. At operation, longitudinal incision at the outflow tract of right ventricle in between the right coronary artery and its branch [LAD from RCA] revealed high far anterior aortic valve which had fibrous continuity with mitral annulus, and pulmonic valve was stenotic up to 4 mm in diameter positioned posterolaterally to the aorta. Ventricular septum was totally defective, and one markedly hypertrophied moderator band originated from crista supraventricularis was connected down to the imaginary septum of the ventricular cavity as a pseudoseptum of the ventricle. Size of the defect was 3X3 cm2 in total. Patch closure of the defect with a Teflon felt of 3.5 x 4 cm2 was done with interrupted multiple sutures after cut off of the moderator band, which was resutured to the artificial septum after reconstruction of the ventricular septum. Pulmonic valvotomy was done from 4 mm to 11 mm in diameter thru another pulmonary arteriotomy incision, and right ventriculotomy wound was closed reconstructing the right ventricular outflow tract with pericardial autograft of 3 x 4 cm2. Atrial septal defect of 2 cm in diameter was closed with 3-0 Erdeck suture, and atrial wall was sutured also when rectal temperature reached from 24`C to 35.5`C. Complete A-V block was managed with temporary external pacemaker with a pacing rate of 110/min. thru myocardial wire, and arterial blood pressure of 80/50 mmHg was maintained with Isuprel or Dopamine dripping under the CVP of 25-cm saline. Consciousness was recovered one hour after the operation when his blood pressure reached 100 /70 mmHg, but vital signs were not stable, and bleeding from the pericardial drainage and complete anuria were persisted until his heart could not capture the pacemaker impulse, and patient died of low output syndrome 320 min after the operation.

52 cases of ventricular septal defect [VSD] associated with aortic insufficiency [Al] were found among 1271 patients with simple VSD operated during 27-year period [1959, August-1987, June] at Seoul National University Hospital. Their preoperative data, intraoperative findings and postoperative short-term and long-term follow-up data were evaluated to find the proper timing and method of surgical treatment. The result of this survey shows as follows: 1. To obtain the proper surgical indication, cardiac catheterization and angiography, especially root aortography, was essential. 2. Of all 52 patients, the VSD were type I in 40 patients [77%], type II in 8 [15%] and combination of type I and II in 4 [3%]. Patch closure of VSD were performed in 46 patients and direct suture closure of small VSD in 6. Most common pathologic findings of Al were prolapse of right coronary cusp [40 cases, 77%]. Aortic valve reconstruction were performed in 19 patients, aortic valve replacement in 6 and VSD closure alone in 27. 3. There were 3 surgical deaths [mortality 5.8%], and the long-term follow-up shows that VSD closure alone might have been sufficient to arrest progression of Al in younger patients [less than 10-year old], particularly in those with mild insufficiency. Valve reconstructions, when necessary, were more effective when done at an early age [less than 15-year old]. In a conclusion, we could recommend followings: 1. If patient at any age having VSD with Al is diagnosed, prompt operation is recommended. As for the surgical method, VSD closure only may be fit for mild degree of Al when patient is less than 10-year old, but the management of valve itself may be needed for moderate to severe degree of Al, especially when patient is over 10 year old. The management of valve itself may be variable, but valve reconstruction should be considered as a first choice in less than 15-year old patient. If patient is diagnosed less than 5-year old without evidence of Al, close follow-up observation is recommended. But if Al evidences of clinical findings and/or echocardiography during follow-up examination are notified, corrective operation should be accomplished while the Al is mild. If cusp prolapse and/or even type I VSD of significant size is demonstrated on aortogram, without Al, it should be corrected as early as possible before the patient is about 5 years old.
