As a part of series of "Studies on Inorganic Chinese Drugs in Korea" four arsenic mineral Chinese drugs were analyzed by emission spectrographic method, and also were studied crystallographically by X-ray diffraction method. The following results were revealed: 1) Tang-shin-suk was not a Native arsenic but a Arsenolite which containing 94% of $As_{2}O_{3}$, 2) Toh-shin-suk was Crade Aluminum silicate 3) Woong-whang was a Realgar $As_{2}S_{2}$, 4) Yeh-suk was a Ca-Al-Silicate which was mixed with .alpha.-quartz contaminated by Iron compound and trace amount of Arsenic. It was not verified that the presence of Arsenopyrite FeAsS which has been believed as a main component of Yeh-suk by a Japanese author Wakimizu, nor the presence of Arsenolite which was reported by Masutomi.

Purpose : The diagnosis of the causes of residual pain after ankle fractures and the treatment is not simple. The authors analyzed the clinical results of the patients with residual pain after ankle fracture fur whom ankle arthroscopy was undertaken, for the purpose of evaluating the efficacy of arthroscopic diagnosis and treatment. Materials and Methods : From January 1997 to June 1998, ankle arthroscopy was done for the seventeen patients suffering from residual ankle pain and limitation of motion after ankle fracture. Their symptoms were not improved despite conservative treatment. There were sixteen men and one woman, and their mean age was 37.4 years. Result : Radiological examination revealed loose bodies in two patients, and osteophytes at the anterior rim of the tibia in fourteen patients. By the classification of osteoarthritic change, three ankles were assigned to grade 0, eight to grade I, six to grade II, and none to grade III. On arthroscopic examination, soft tissue impingement was found In thirteen cases, loose bodies in five cases, and osteochondral lesions in four cases. For arthroscopic treatments, removal of soft tissue, abrasion of osteophytes, cartilage shaving and removal of loose bodies were done. Clinical results were evaluated using Evanski and Waugh score. Preoperative overall score of 58.7 points jumped to 74.6 points after the operation, and in fourteen patients$(82\%)$ the symptoms were improved. Conclusion : Ankle arthroscopy is considered to be a very useful diagnostic and treatment method fer the patients with residual complaints after ankle fracture.

Knowing about each student's reading motivation is important to school librarians in producing life-long readers in their students This research asks the questions. are there any significant differences of reading motivation between grade level gender and birth order? and what kinds of reading motivation can encourage students to read books? The questionnaire method composed of 25 items was used for 278 students. The sample consisted of 142 students in 2nd, 136 in 5th grade, 140 boys and 138 girls. and 119 first born and 159 other birth order students. Finding shows that significant differences were observed for the reading motivation in 2nd and 5th grade, no significant differences between boys and girls. and no significant differences between birth order students were observed. It concludes with recommendations of reading motivation to each student or group.

This study investigates influence of organic fiber reinforced materials, affecting crack reduction of cement mortar using low grade natural sand(LNS). According to the test, for the properties of fresh mortar, the mortar using natural sand(NS) exhibited that flow value increased until adding most of fiber less than 1$\%$, except for Polyvinly alchol fiber(PVA), and then it decreased. Meanwhile, the mortar mixed with LNS showed that increase of fiber content decrease flow value, regardless of fiber type. Air content increased in the mortar adding nylon fiber(NY) and polypropylene fiber(PP), while it maintained or decreased in the mortar adding cellulose fiber(CL) and PVA. Compressive strength of the mortar does not affect during early age, but mortar using NS and adding 0.1$\%$ of fiber content increased the value, except for PP, at 28 age days, while the mortar mixed with LNS decreased. For the properties of tensile strength, mortar, using NS and adding individually PP and PVA, exhibited higher value. Especially 0.1$\%$ of NY provided the highest value. In addition, the mortar mixed with LNS resulted in improved tensile value as fiber content increased. It is demonstrated that mortar using LNS led to higher length change ratio than natural sand.

Purpose : Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), which can result in renal failure in children, is expected to resolve spontaneously in mild cases, but severe cases require surgical correction, posing dilemma in deciding the right measures in some cases. Therefore, to delineate the factors affecting spontaneous resolution of VUR and to apply them in assessing the prognosis, we reviewed the patients with VUR who had been treated medically. Patients and Methods : 32 children (49 renal units) with reflux who had been admitted during the 5-year period from Jan '92 to Dec '96 were classified into 4 groups (Resolved, Improved, Unchanged, and Worsened) and analyzed. Results : 1) 25 were boys and 7 girls. The age at diagnosis ranged from 13 days to 9 years (mean $24.6{\pm}11.4$ mo) 2) Among 49 refluxing ureters, 4 were below 1 me of age,21 between 1 me to 1 yr, 16 between 1 yr to 6 yr, 8 beyond 6 yr. Two belonged to Grade I, 16 to Crade II, 17 to Grade III, 12 to Grade IV, and 2 to Grade V. 3) Spontaneous resolution rates of reflux were 100, 81, 47, 8, 0$\%$ for each Grade, respectively. Resolution plus improvement rates in Grade III and IV were 71 and $50\%$, each. 4) Resolution rates in relation to the age at diagnosis were $100\%$ for below 1 mo, $48\%$ between 1 mo to 1 yr, $56\%$ between 1 to 6 yr, and $13\%$ beyond 6 yr. 5) Of 15 unilateral refluxing ureters, 14 ($93\%$) resulted in resolution. Of 34 bilateral refluxing ureters, 11 ($32\%$) resolved spontaneously 6) Resolution occurred within 1 year in 20 units of 24 renal units in regular follow-up. Conclusion: The lower the initial grade and the younger the patient, the sooner the reflux resolved. Resolution was better when VUR was unilateral than bilateral. Long-term regular follow-up is essential because even the cases falling in Grades III and IV have high rates of spontaneous resolution and improvement with medical treatment.

Purpose : There is no specific treatment guidelines for Henoch-$Sch{\ddot{o}}nlein$(HS) nephritis. Therefore we performed this study to observe the effect of long term steroid therapy combined with azathioprine Methods : Treatment protocols; 1) Steroid pulse therapy: methylprednisolon 30 mg/kg/dose, maximum 1 gm, intravenolisly 6 times for alternate day. 2) Oral steroid was given 2 mg/kg/day for 1 month, 1 mg/kg/day for following 1 month and alternate day oral steroid combined with azathioprine 2 mg/kg/day for 2 years. Results : Time period from HSP to onset of HS nephritis was between 2 weeks to 5 months with mean $7.4{\pm}7.4$ weeks. Clinical remission were seen in 4 cases out of 5 ($80\%$). Mean time period with disappearance of proteinuria and microscopic hematuria were $5{\pm}2.4$ month and $13.3{\pm}2.9$ month respectively. On pathologic findings by ISKDC, 3 cases were grade IIIb, 2 cases were grade IV in first kidney biopsies and showed pathologic improvement in follow up tidneybiopsiesafterlyearstreatment. Conclusion : As there is no definitive treatment for HS nephritis so far, our study of long term oral steroid therapy with azathioprine was effective in clinical and histologic aspect. Therefore further study in HS nephritis with in a large group will be needed in the future.
