The objective of this study is to select a simple and easy measurable food behavior checklist for the development of Nutrition Quotient (NQ) for children, which reflects children's diet quality, as well as to evaluate the validity of the items in the food behavior checklist. The first 36 items in the checklist were established by an expert review, modifying the preliminary 50 items in the checklist, which had been selected by a literature review and the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data. 341 children in 5th and 6th grades at an elementary school participated in a one-day dietary record survey, and later responded to 36 food behavior questions of the checklist. Pearson's correlation coefficients between the responses to the food behavior checklist items along with the mean nutrient intakes of the children were calculated. From the result, in which responses of food frequency and food behavior items showed certain association with the dietary record data, a second checklist with 22 items was selected. A survey was conducted by using the second checklist. 1,393 children in the 5th and 6th grades at 12 elementary schools in metropolitan cities, such as Seoul, Busan, Gwangju, Daegu, Daejeon, and Incheon, participated in the survey. Further, an exploratory factor analysis was performed. After the analysis, 19 items (10 items from food frequency and 9 items from food behavior) were finalized as the food behavior checklist items for the NQ. The final 19 food behavior checklist items were composed of 5 factors: 'Balance', 'Diversity', 'Moderation', 'Regularity', and 'Practice'. This study is a significant first trial to establish a comprehensive system for evaluating children's food habit and diet quality. This checklist might need continuous modification and revision reflecting the change of children's dietary life and the social environment.

In order to judge appropriately the suitability as the second intermediate host of Clonorchis sinensis, the present experiments were proposed to survey the metacercaria of C. sinensis in the fish host, Cuztriculus eigenmanni, in the 6eld, and to observe, by experimental infection of the fish with Clonorchis cercaria, the penetrating ability of the cercaria, maturity, the process of degeneration and extinction, and infectivity of the metacercaria. The following is a brie summary of the leading facts gained through the experiments. 1. All the ten fish (mean body weight $13.4{\pm}3.439$) which were caught in Ok-ku irrigation reservoir were in acted with the metacercariae and the average number of the metacercariae found in the fish body/gram was 4.55. 2. The Bish was easily subject to invasion of the cercaria, and the examination of the cercariae after having the fish infected disclosed that 5:l hours after the infection, all of the cercariae formed their cysts in muscle and the metacercariae kept growing, that 7 days later the metacercariae were found folding their bodies twice, and that in 15 days the characteristic structure of the metacercariae was complete and made a vigorous rotary movement intermittently. 3. In the case of control fish, Pseudorasbora parka, both penetrating ability of the cercariae and the infective degree of the metacercariae to control host were stronger as compared with the 5sh host because that the control fish had higher suceptibility to C. sinensis. 4. Afterwards, the metacercariae in the fish host came to a state of maturity and beyond this stage some metacercariae started the Process of degeneration and extinction in as early as 30 days, and as more days elapsed, mortality of the metacercariae was not uniformly increased but difference of mortality appeared to be according to the individual of Ssh host. That is, in 390, 540 and 586 days, all of the metacercariae in the fish hosts became dead, meanwhile almost all of those found in the fish host of 596 days after the infection survived (mortality; 8, 51%) , Percentage of orally administered metacercariae developing to maturity in rabbit is 10.465 in the last case. 5. As the days were progressed the shapes of the metacercariae in the fish host tended to change from ellipsoid to almost round shapes, the length became shorter while the width was wider. The results shown above revealed that C. eigenmanni was, though it could not be proper host than p. larva. suitable as the second intermediate host in addition to our previous observation results.

Purpose: Congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis(CIPA) is a rare form of autosomal recessive peripheral sensory neuropathy. Patients with CIPA show loss of pain sensation, which leads to corneal ulcers and opacities, self-mutilation of the tongue and fingertips, as well as fractures with subsequent joint deformities and chronic osteomyelitis. The purpose of this report is to highlight the fact that pressure sores also are a potential complication of CIPA. Methods: This case report describes a patient presenting with pressure sores resulting from CIPA. A 5-year-old boy was referred to our department for the treatment of a $5{\times}5cm$ sacral pressure sore as a result of a hip spica cast applied for the treatment of a left hip joint dislocation. He had a history suggesting CIPA such as multiple bony fractures, mental retardation, recurrent hyperpyrexia, anhidrosis, and clubbing fingers due to oral mutilation. A microscopic examination of the sural nerve showed mainly large myelinated fibers, a few small myelinated fibers and an almost complete loss of unmyelinated fibers. After wound preparation for two weeks, the exposed bone was covered with two local advancement flaps. Results: Two weeks later, complete wound healing was achieved. A 16-month follow-up showed no recurrence. However, the patient presented with a new pressure sore on the left knee due to orthosis for the treatment of the left hip joint dislocation. Conclusion: The early diagnosis of CIPA and special care of pressure sores are important for preventing and treating pressure sores resulting from CIPA.

Background: Chronic kidney disease is considered a risk factor for thyroid nodules as well as thyroid dysfunction such as hypothyroidism. Among patients on hemodialysis, we assessed the size of thyroid nodule and goiter at baseline and 1 year later with ultrasonography. Methods: We prospectively selected 47 patients with hemodialysis at January 2012 and reviewed their medical records. We checked goiter and thyroid nodules at January 2012 and December 2012. Results: In the hemodialysis patients (n=47), 24 patients (51.1%) had thyroid nodules and 33 patients (70.2%) had goiter at baseline. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) was higher in patients with thyroid nodules ($204.4{\pm}102.9$ vs. $129.9{\pm}93.6pg/mL$, p=0.01). Thyroid ultrasonography was conducted in 29 patients after 1 year. The thickness of the thyroid isthmus increased ($2.8{\pm}1.6$ vs. $3.2{\pm}1.9mm$, p=0.003), but the number of nodules did not change ($1.2{\pm}1.9$ vs. $1.4{\pm}2.0$, p=0.109). PTH was associated with the enlargement of thyroid nodules significantly through logistic regression analysis. Conclusion: Thyroid goiter and nodules in hemodialysis patients were more prevalent than in the general population. PTH influenced the production of thyroid nodules in hemodialysis patients. Regular examination with thyroid ultrasonography and thyroid function test should be considered in hemodialysis patients.

To get the information of sanitary develoment of beef and pork, we get the result of environmental specimens(slaughter house floors, sewage, etc) in laboratory. 1. After examination of bacterial infection on after-bleeding, after-dismemberment and final products at each stage of cattle slaughter process, we got log 3.80~7.48cfu/$\textrm{cm}^2$ of aerobic plate counts and log 2.60~5.23cfu/$\textrm{cm}^2$ of coliform counts or so from the carcasses after bleeding, but these count levels went down little bit after dismemberment but as we continued study to the final products, the count levels kept sililar in mumbers. 2. At the slaughter process of pigs, the aerobic plate counts and the coliform counts reached such high levels of log 5.59~8.80cfu/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and log 3.31~5.67cfu/$\textrm{cm}^2$, respectively, after bleeding, in general, these count diminished in a big way after scalding, but they increased just little bit from dismemberment to final products. And there were few differences in the contamination levels on the final products no matter what seasonal contaminations after bleeding. 3. Test revealed very low levels of cell counts both on the aerobic plate counts of washing water and in the coliform counts, the former was log 1.00~2.69cfu/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and the later was log 3.30~5.67cfu/$\textrm{cm}^2$, but the contamination levels on the beds of transfering vehicles for carcasses were very high as followes : the aerobic counts was log 4.23~7.20cfu/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and coliform counts was log 2.86~5.20cfu/$\textrm{cm}^2$. 4. Study showed the aeroboc plate counts and the coliform counts get to the highest levels in summer, the second highest one is in fall, the third in spring, lowest in winter. Resulting from the test results proven above we reached this kind of conclusion the bacterial contaminations on eatable carcasses were upto hygienic treatment of carcasses and cleaniness of transfering vehicles at the final stop of slaughter processes rather than upto at any stage of slaughter processes. Therefore we have got to establish alternatives immediately to develo sanitary quality of meat and pork.

A 36 year old blindman, engineer was admitted with chief complaints of hemoptysis, recurrent sore throat, pyoderma in genital organ, uveitis and thrombophlebitis for 10 years. Above the chief complaints were remission or exacerbation during hospitalization. Physicalexamination showed that left radial, ulnar & brachial pulse was not palpable. No bruit or murmur was obtained over the mass. Neurologic examination revealed no significant finding.On admission, chest P-A showed hen egg sized round & oval compact hazy density on left upper lung field. Bronchogram revealed no pathological finding and Lt. tomogram showed well define large,ovoid mass density in the superior mediastinum. Fluoroscopy finding showed nonpulsatile on left upper lung field. Pre-op. aortography was not taken, under the impression of lung Ca. rule out .sortie aneurysm, exploratory operation was performed through the 2nd intercostal space, Lt. It was performed that the mass was ascending sortie aneurysm of saccular type. Direct aneurysmectomy with multiple figure of eight suture were done without any prosthetic graft. Post-op. control I.V.C graphy showed completely obstruction sign. Postopcontrol aortography revealed good surgical result. Final, histopathological answered non-specific sortie aneurysm, saccular type. Post-op. courses were uneventful except mild neurologic disturbance with subclavian steal syndrome and associated with both lower leg pitting edema due to inferior vena cava obstruction. After op, 3 month later, discharged to home, with big systemic problem. Behcet`s syndrome reviewed with related literatures. The coexistence of mouth and genital ulceration with hypopyon mentioned by hippocrates and described by various workers in the early part of this century was first defined as a syndrome by Behcet in 1937. In 1937 Behcet described a chronic relapsing triple symptom complex of oral ulceration, genital ulceration, and ocular inflammation. The place of the syndrome as part of a systemic disorder in now clearer, and the under lying pathology appears to be a vasculitis. The disease runs a- chronic course, blindness being the greatest disability and control nervous system involvement a cause of death. Thrombophlebitis is fairly frequent, france et al [1951] giving an incidence of 25% and Dowling [1961] 12%, superficial thrombophlebitis migrans and thrombosis of large veins, including venae cavae [Thomas, 1947: Boolukos 1960] are recorded. Little attention has been paid to arterial involvement. Mishima et al. [1961] described resection cf an aortic aneurysm in a 38 year old man with Behcet`s syndorme. Mounsey in a clinicopathological conference described a case [Brit, med. J., 1966] of ruptured aortic aneurysm in Bechcet`s syndrome treated by aorto-iliac graft. Also, Shikano and Oshima et al [1963] recorded two aneyrysm of smaller arteries. Unfrequently, aortic aneurysm was presumed to be secondary to osteomyelitis of the lumber spine, though the possible association between aortic aneurysm and Behcet`s syndrome was raised. A further case is reported here, in which ascending aortic aneurysm with Behcet`s Ds. appeared to form part of this generalized disease. This is a case report of surgical experience of Behcet`s Ds. with ascending aortic aneurysm which had nearly all the typical clinical features. Above mentioned and was reviewed with related literatures.

청소년기에는 두개악안면부위의 외상성 손상이 흔하다. 그러나 상아질, 백악질, 치수를 포함하는 치아파절로 정의 되는 치근파절을 비교적 드물다. 성장기 아동에 있어서 외상으로 인한 손상은 심리적인 위축감, 안모에 대한 열등감 등의 정서적인 문제와 치조골과 안모의 성장이나 치간 간격의 유지에 영향을 미치는 등의 지장을 초래하기 때문에 보존적인 치료가 요구된다. 첫 번째 증례는 9세의 남아로 상악 우측 중절치의 치수노출을 동반한 치관 파절과 치근단부위에 치근의 수평 파절이 관찰되어 치관부 파절편 치수만 제거하고 수산화칼슘을 이용하여 충전하였다. 6개월 후 방사선 사진에서 dentinal bridge의 형성을 확인할 수 있었고 치근단부는 병적 소견 없이 정상적으로 발육되고 있었다. 1년 3개월 후 방사선 사진에서 치근단부의 형성이 완료된 것을 확인하여 gutta percha를 이용하여 영구 충전을 시행하였다. 두 번째 증례는 7세의 여아로 상악 우측 중절치의 치수 노출을 동반한 치근의 수직 파절이 관찰되어 인위적 발거 후 레진 시멘트를 이용하여 파절편 부착 후 재식하였다. 술 후 8개월 동안의 관찰결과 특이한 임상적 증상은 나타나지 않았다. 이상의 증례에서 치근 파절이 발생한 치아에서 보존적 치료를 시행하였고 이에 양호한 결과를 얻었기에 보고하는 바이다.

괴사된 미성숙 영구치의 치수치료에 있어서 치근단형성술의 대안으로 제안된 재생근관치료는 근관내 살균을 통해 치근단의 성장을 유도하여 치근상아질 두께를 증가시키고 치아의 치관-치근 비율을 유리하게 하여 치아의 파절 가능성을 낮추는 장점이 있다. 본 연구는 미성숙 영구치에 metronidazole, ciprofloxacin, cefaclor의 복합 항생제를 적용한 후에 방사선 사진상에서 나타난 치근 성장 양상을 치근 상아질의 면적 변화와 치근단공의 내측 폭경 변화의 측면에서 장기적으로 관찰하였고, 정상 소구치의 치근 성숙 양상과 비교 분석하고자 하였다. 치료군은 24개의 영구치를 대상으로 하였고 대조군은 27개의 소구치를 대상으로 하였다. 두 군간의 성장 속도 차이는 Mann-Whitney test로 검정하였다. 두 군은 첫 1개월 내, 1 -3개월 내, 3 - 6개월 내, 6 - 12개월 내에서는 치근단 폭경 감소 비율에 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다. 12개월 뒤 치료군에서 치근단공의 내측 폭경은 치료 시작 시기보다 50.59% 감소하여 대조군의 71.82%와 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 발생하였다. 치료군에서의 치근단 폭경 감소비율은 3개월, 6개월, 6개월 이후에서 모두 유의한 차이가 있었다. 치근 상아질의 면적 증가율은 모든 정기 검진 시기에서 치료군과 대조군간의 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다.

악골의 낭종은 크게 치성과 비치성으로 구분되며 치성낭은 치성기관이나 그 잔존 세포성분과 관련되어 주로 골내에서 발생한다. 비치성낭종은 과거에는 태아의 발육중 상피의 봉입이나 융합선을 따라 존재하는 상피잔사가 증식하여 낭성변형을 일으킨다는 설이 유력하였으나 현재에는 이러한 태아의 발육 동안상피의 봉입은 일어나지 않는 것으로 보고 있다. 함치성낭은 미맹출 치아와 관련되어 발생하고 상피의 전암 가능성이 있으므로 가능한 발리 제거하도록 하며 조대술이나 적출술이 이용될 수 있고 간혹 원인치의 발거가 추천된다. 비구개낭은 가장 일반적인 비치성낭으로 상악 중절치 사이에 경계가 명확한 방사선 투과상으로 나타난다. 적출술과 조대술로 치료할 수 있으며 전암 가능성이나 재발은 드물다. 본 증례에서는 전북대학교 병원 소아치과에 내원한 아동의 악골내 발생한 낭종을 외과적으로 제거한 후 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 함치성낭의 환아에서, 원인 치아를 보존하고 완전 적출술로 병소를 제거한 후 경과를 관찰한 바 영구치의 정상적인 맹출이 이루어졌다. 2. 비구개낭을 치료시, 인접치아의 생활력에 대한 정확한 진단과 그에 따른 치료법의 선택으로 불필요한 근관치료를 피할 수 있다. 3. 향후 비구개낭의 환아의 관련치에 대한 계속적인 관찰이 필요하리라 사료된다. 4. 악골내 방사선 투과성의 병소를 치료시, 정확한 감별진단과 적절한 치료법의 선택이 중요하다.
