The larynx has three major functions such as protective reflex, respiration and phonation, and is richly innervated by sensory, sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves. The sensory innervation of the laryngeal mucosa, which is involved in the perception of pain, mechanical and chemical irritation, prtects the airway via various laryngeal reflexes. We studied the distribution of Substance P (SP) and Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (CGRP) sensory fibers in the rat's larynx using the immuno-histochemical methods. Many SP and CGRP immunoreactive fibers were found in all regions of the laryngeal mucosa except the vocal cords. SP immunoreactive fibers showed a very similar distribution to the CGRP fibers in the epithelium and submucosa. But SP immunoreactive fibers were sparser than CGRP immunoreactive fibers in distribution density. Both reactive fibers were denser in the supraglottic region than subglottic region. Especially, intraepithelial fibers displayed the densest innervation to the laryngeal surface of the epiglottis. h the subepithelium, SP and CGRP immunoreactive fibers were distributed along the wall of vessels and around the glands. The present results suggest that the regional distribution of SP and CGRP immunoreactivity may be responsible for the protective reflex function of the laryngeal inlet.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of intravenous drip with ketamine hydrochloride and its application for control depth and maintenance of anesthesia in dogs. Changes of blood pressure, vital signs, blood gas and anesthetic state were observed in this study. The obtained were summerized as follows ; 1. Changes of blood pressure and heart rate after intravenous drip anesthesia with ketamine hydrochloride were observed with significant increase in all group ; group II (0.135m81k9/min), group III (0.269mg/kg/min) and group IV(0.538mg/kg/min). These conditions were maintained unchangeably until 160 minutes after administration in all group. This may be indicated that there were no side effects on account of ketamine accumulation. 2. There were irregular respiration, pain reflex, Jaw tone reflex and vomition probability in the anesthetic conditions of group II The anesthetic conditions of group III were rarely shown as mentioned above. Awakening time and recovery time of group H were more prolonged 21 minutes and 27 minutes respectively than those of group III. These experimental data suggested that the optimal dosage of intravenous drip anesthesia of ketamine Hcl was 0.269mg/kg/min.

Changes in the cardiovascular and bispectral index score were evaluated in dogs subjected to constant rate infusion (CRI) with alfaxalone. Fifteen dogs were assigned to three groups of 5. Groups and doses of alfaxalone were as follows: group 1, 3 mg/kg for induction and 6 mg/kg/h for CRI; group 2, 3 mg/kg for induction and 8 mg/kg/h for CRI; and group 3, 3 mg/kg for induction and 10 mg/kg/h for CRI. CRI was maintained for 1 h. Respiratory rates and blood pressures showed minimal changes; however, mild tachycardia and mild hypoxemia occurred, especially in group 3. There were some disparities between bispectral index score, electromyography and pedal withdrawal reflex test when measuring anesthetic depth. Additional premedications and/or analgesic agents would be helpful to avoid adverse effects of alfaxalone and provide improved cardiopulmonary functions.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to investigate Acute and Subacute Toxicity, and Anti-cancer Effect of H Herbal-acupuncture on mice and rats. Methods : Balb/c mice were injected intraperitoneally with H Herbal-acupuncture for $LD_{50}$ and acute toxicity test. Sprague-Dawley rats were experimented in the same way for subacute toxicity test. H Herbal-acupuncture was injected into abdomen of mice having S-180 cancer cell line. Result : 1. During the test, $LD_{50}$ could not be counted since there was no expired subjects. 2. In an acute toxicity test, the loss of motility and reflex action was observed, but weight increased in the treatment group, compared with those in the normal group (P<0.05). 3. In an acute toxicity test of serum biochemical values of mice, glucose increased in the treatment group II while total cholesterol was increased in the all treatment groups (P<0.05). 4. In a subacute toxicity test, a little loss of motility and reflex action was observed in the treatment group. Weight of mice in the treatment group decreased on the 28th day. 5. In a subacute toxicity test, liver weight was decreased but lung weight of mice increased in the all treatment groups (P<0.05). 6. As a result of measuring Complete Blood Count test (CBC) of rat, HCT was decreased in treatments even though it was not significant, compared with the normal group (P<0.05). 7. In a serum biochemical value test of subacute toxicity, total protein and albumin decreased in the all treatment groups. Creatinine, glucose, GOT increased in the treatment group I compared with the control group. Alkaline phos-phatase decreased in treatment II group, compared with the control group (P<0.05). 8. Median survival time that was measured in the rats treated with sarcoma-180 cancer cell Median decreased in the treatment group, compared with the control group (P<0.05). 9. Natural killer cell activity showed significant reduction at 100:1 and 10:1 E/T ratio while it increased at 50:1 E/T ratio. It is inferred that there was an error in the experiment (P<0.05). 10. In an interleukin-2 productivity test, even though it decreased in lung cancer, and increased in abdomen cancer, but it was only a small difference (P<0.005). 11. After injecting B16F10 cell into a capillary vessel of C57BL/6 mice and generating metastasized lung cancer, the lung was examined with the naked eye. It was not possible to see metastasized cancer in the all groups on the seventh day but the cancer was viewed on the fourteenth day.

위염 및 위암 등의 발생과 관련되어 있는 Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori)는 구강의 치태와 타액에서 주로 발견이 된다. 유년시절 동안 주로 감염되는 것으로 알려져 있지만 감염경로는 불분명하다. 구강이 H. pylori의 두 번째 서식지로서 전염경로 및 위장내 H. pylori의 제균 후 재감염에 중요한 영향을 끼칠 수 있는지는 논쟁이 되고 있다. 따라서 본 저자는 문헌고찰을 통하여 구강 내에 존재하는 H. pylori에 관하여 알아보고자 하였다. 위장에 존재하는 H. pylori는 위인두반사나 구토에 의해 구강 내 발현될 수도 있으나, 구강과 위의 감염은 서로 관련성이 없는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 진단방법으로는 혈청학적검사, 요소호기검사, 중합효소연쇄반응(polymerase chain reaction: PCR)방법, Urease검사, 조직검사 등이 있으나, 타액과 치태에서는 nested PCR 방법이 주로 추천되어 진다. 구강 내 감염율은 다양하게 나타나며, 치과질환과의 연관성은 없는 것으로 사료된다. 그러나 치주질환 환자의 구강 내에서 발현율은 높게 나타나므로, 주의가 요구되며 향균 구강세척제의 사용이 권유된다. 결과적으로 구강 내 H. pylori는 정상세균총으로 사료되며, 향후 구강내 H. pylori에 관한 추가적인 많은 연구가 필요하리라 사료된다.

Purpose: A limited number of studies have examined the link between F-wave abnormalities and clinical presentation in pediatric Guillain-$Barr{\acute{e}}$ syndrome (GBS). Therefore, this study examined the importance of F-wave abnormalities as a prognostic factor in pediatric GBS patients. Methods: The records and electrodiagnostic studies (EDS) of 70 GBS patients were retrospectively evaluated, and divided into 2 groups according to the results of EDS. Group A (n=33) presented with F-wave abnormalities, and group B (n=26) exhibited normal findings. We compared laboratory reports, clinical features, response to treatment, and prognosis between the 2 groups. Results: Motor weakness was the most frequently observed symptom for either group. Clinically, the incidence of fever and upper respiratory symptoms differed between the 2 groups, while the prevalence of abnormal deep tendon reflex (DTR) was significantly higher in group A than B (P<0.05). Patients diagnosed with GBS had received intravenous immunoglobulin treatment: 94% in group A and 58% in group B. Furthermore, significantly greater numbers of patients in group A showed H-reflex abnormalities and poor prognosis compared with group B (P<0.05). Conclusion: This study demonstrated that F-waves are a clinically important prognostic factor in GBS. F-wave abnormalities were associated with abnormal DTR and poor prognosis in patients. Limited studies have examined the link between F-wave abnormalities and clinical results; therefore, further randomized controlled studies are needed to confirm the clinical characteristics and efficacy of treatments.

The central nervous system depressant effect of xylazine and xylazine-ketamine was studied in chicken and mice. Intraperitoneal injection of xylazine(1~30 mg/kg) and xylazine(1~30 mg/kg)-ketamine(100 mg/kg) induced a loss of the righting reflex in chicken and mice, respectively. These effects of xylazine were dose-dependent. The results obtained were as follows; 1. The effect of xylazine-induced depression was antagonized by adrenergic antagonists having ${\alpha}_2$-blocking activity(yohimbine, tolazoline, piperoxan and phentolamine). 2. Yohimbine was most effective in the reduction of the CNS depression by xylazine. 3. Phenoxybenzamine and prazosin did not reduced CNS depression by xylazine in both species. 4. Labetalol (${\alpha}_1$, ${\beta}_1$-adrenergic antagonist) and propranolol(${\beta}$-adrenergic blocking agent) were not effective in reducing xylazine induced depression. 5. Cholinergic blocking agents (atropine and mecamylamine), a dopaminergic antagonist (Haloperidol), a histamine $H_1$-antagonist(chlorpheniramine), a histamine $H_2$-antagonist(cimetidine), a serotonergic-histamine $H_1$ antagonist(cyproheptadine) were not effective in reducing xylazine-induced depression. 6. Xylazine-induced depression is mediated by ${\alpha}_2$-adrenergic receptors and appears not to be involved in cholinergic, dopaminergic, serotonergic or histaminergic pathways.

본 연구는 키네시오 테이핑을 적용하는 방식에 따라 나타나는 척수운동신경원의 흥분성과 뇌파의 변화를 알아보기 위해 실시하였다. 건강한 성인 16명을 대상으로 비복근의 테이핑 적용 방식에 따라 실험군 I(n=8); 근육 주행방향, 실험군 II(n=8); 근육 횡 방향으로 구분하여 2주간 실시하였다. 척수운동신경원 흥분성 측정을 위해 경골신경에 자극을 주어 H 반사를 획득하였으며, 뇌파는 ${\beta}$-SMR를 측정하기 위해 C3, Cz, C4에 활성전극을 붙여 테이핑 적용 전, 즉시, 1주일 후, 2주일 후에 측정하였다. 연구 결과, 실험군I의 척수 운동신경원의 변화는 실험군 II보다 ${\alpha}$-운동신경원의 활성도가 감소하였고 지속 시간도 길었다(p<.05). 뇌파는 실험군I의 ${\beta}$-SMR 활성도가 실험군 II 보다 증가하고 지속시간도 길었다(p<.05). 근육 주행방향에 따른 적용 방식은 횡 방향 보다 ${\beta}$-SMR 뇌파를 더 활성화 시키며, 척수운동신경원의 활성도 감소를 지속적으로 유발함을 알 수 있었다.
