Purpose: This study was aimed to identify the influencing factors on the quality of life among breast cancer survivors. Methods: The subjects were 159 female patients who visited out-patient department (OPD) after the mass removal surgery for breast cancer and had completed adjuvant treatments such as chemotherapy, radiation therapy at a university hospital and a general hospital. Data collection was conducted using the Ferrell QOL scale, the Mishel uncertainty scale, the Fitts & Osgoods body image scale revised by Jeon & Kim. the Rosenberg self-esteem scale, and the Kang family support scale. Results: The level of QOL in the participants was in the middle. There were a significant correlation between QOL, uncertainty, self-esteem, and family support. There were significant differences in QOL with the perceived health condition and the best support person. In a regression analysis, the most powerful predictor of QOL was body image (21.7%). Altogether uncertainty and perceived health condition explained 28.6% of the variance of QOL of the participants. Conclusion: Body image, uncertainty, and perceived health condition were important predictors of QOL. These results demonstrated the need for developing interventions to improve QOL of breast cancer survivors.

The fungal isolates of Mucorales, directly collected from Korean traditional raw materials of Nuruk (raw material for Korean rice wine) and Meju (raw material for Korean soysauces), were compared with those of Rhizopus oryzae purchased. The fungal isolates of Rhizopus, Mucor, and Absidia mostly identified as based on the morphological observations, were evaluated with the PCR-polymorphic bands. The PCR-polymorphic bands of the genomic DNA reacted with the primers of OPD series tenmer were various, but showed averaged 4 to 6 in the agarose-electrophoresis. The dissimilarity coefficient (DC) between two isolates were compared by the cluster analyses, dendrogams and polar ordinations. The isolates of R. oryzae known. showed several groupings within the lower value of DC and were divided to two groups of amylo-process and other fungi with other purposes. The isolates unidentified were identified by the DC made of this results. Taxonomy of these isolates made by the morphological observations were consistent with those resulted above in most case but not in all aspects. More works were needed with the isolates known for detail informations of Mucorales.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the quality of life and related factors of CVA surgery patients. Method: The subjects were 64 CVA surgery patients who had discharged and received follow up care at the OPD. Data were collected using William's SS-QOL instrument and IADL. And Data were analyzed with SPSS WIN program in which frequency, percentage, t-test, Pearson's correlation and stepwise regression were used to examine the quality of life and related factors. Result: General characteristics related to QOL were marital status and economical status. Depression was the most important factor with influence on QOL in CVA disease patients after surgery. There were further positive correlation between patient's IADL and QOL and between patient's social support and QOL. Meanwhile the patient's depression level was negatively correlated with QOL. Conclusion: Depression was the most important factor with influence on QOL in CVA patients after surgery. Therefore active nursing intervention to decrease depression and to improve patient's physical functional status in needed. And the patient's family should be included in all nursing intervention and patient education so that the patient's quality of life is prompted by the maintenance of optimal wellbeing.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the cognitive function in NIDDM patients. Method: The data were collected at MI OPD in C University hospital. with Digit Span Forward & Backward, Trail Making Test-A, Trail Making Test-B, and MMSE. Result: There were significant differences in DF, DB, TMT-A, and TMT-B according to gender, and in TMT-A according to living with spouse and comorbidity. There were significant differences in DF, DB, TMT-A, TMT-B, and MMSE according to monthly income, and in DF, TMT-A, and TMT-B according to hypertensive state. But, there was no difference in cognitive function score according to diabetes-related complication and diabetes treatment modality. There was a significant positive correlation between duration of NIDDM and TMT-A(r=.215, p=.025). The global cognition score was explained 42.1% of varient by age, duration of education, monthly income, and hypertensive state. Conclusion: As above results showed, among age, duration of education, monthly income, and hypertensive state, prevented and managed hypertensive state which is modifiable factor may reduce or delay cognitive function impairment in NIDDM patients. And DF & DB, TMT-A & B could be more utilized as useful cognitive function measurements because those tests reflected cognitive function in NIDDM patients better than MMSE.

We experienced 6 cases of primary cardiac tumor, all received operation for removal of tumor. Mean age was 43.8 years-old ranging from 17 years-old to 66 years-old. Five cases were female, one case was male. Five cases were benign, myxoma, all located within left atrium. One case was malignant, angiosarcoma within right atrium. All patient showed cardiac manifestations. One case was in NYHA functional class II, two were in III, three were in IV. Four patients showed constitutional symptoms, but no one showed evidence of embolic phenomenon. All case of myxoma showed cardiomegaly except one malignancy. Only one case was regular sinus rhythm, three were sinus tachycardia 8z two were atrial fibrillation. The most common site of tumor origin was fossa ovalis limbus[four of all]. Two of five myxomas received emergency operation, one patient died postoperatively. Lived four patients showed no evidence of recurrence[mean follow-up, 3,5 years], but one patient has Grade II /IV mitral regurgitation & in OPD follow-up now, One malignant case, 17 years-old cerebral palsy female, was angiosarcoma occupied most of right atrial chamber originated from anterior wall of right atrium, received emergency operation which was removal of mass & reconstruction of right atrium with artificial pericardial patch. This patient died on postoperative 36th day due to persistent LCOS[low cardiac output syndrome] with combined sepsis.

Twelve patients underwent surgical interventions for aortic aneurysms consecutively from September 1986 to September 1990 in the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Yeungnam University Hospital. They were all men ranging in age from 25 to 68 years with the mean age of 48 years. Five patients of them had aneurysms involving ascending aorta, one aneurysm involving both ascending and descending aorta, four aneurysms involving descending thoracic aorta, and the others had aneurysms involving abdominal aorta. According to morphological classification, six cases of them were in dissection and the others in fusiform aneurysms. All the cases were pathologically true aneurysms and four of them were in acute status. According to causal classification, seven patients of them had atherosclerosis, three cystic medial necrosis, and the others had syphilis and trauma respectively. Six patients with ascending aortic aneurysm had annuloaortic ectasia with aortic regurgitation and underwent ascending aortic graft and aortic valve replacement[Bentall`s operation]. The others with descending thoracic and abdominal aortic aneurysms underwent Dacron graft replacement. Both hemorrhage necessitating reopening of the chest and wound dehiscence were observed in three patients and hoarseness in one patient. Cerebrovascular accident occurred three and a quarter years postoperatively in one patient and he died two days later. The others were followed up via OPD and have been doing well postoperatively.

At Pt(111), Pt(100), Pt, and Rh interfaces, the Frumkin adsorption isotherm of underpotentially deposited hydrogen (UPD H) and related electrode kinetic data are determined using the standard Gibbs energy of adsorption. The Temkin adsorption isotherm of UPD H correlating with the Frumkin adsorption isotherm of UPD H is readily determined using the correlation constants between the Temkin and Frumkin or Langmuir adsorption isotherms. At the Pt(111), Pt(100), Pt, and Rh interfaces, the lateral repulsive interaction between the UPD H species is interpreted using the interaction parameter for the Frumkin adsorption isotherm. The lateral repulsive interaction between the UPD H species at the Pt(111), Pt(100), Pt, and Rh interfaces is significantly different from the lateral attractive interaction between the overpotentially deposited hydrogen (OPD H) species at Pt, Ir, and Pt-Ir alloy interfaces.
