  • The purpose of this retrospective study was to provide additional data on the use of toceranib in a wide variety of tumor types in small breed dogs, especially < 8 kg (except 5 dogs). This was a retrospective study of 31 dogs with malignant tumors treated with a 2.5 mg/kg median dose of toceranib (Palladia; Zoetis, USA) on a Monday-Wednesday-Friday schedule. Clinical benefit was observed in 13 of 15 dogs (86.7%, 3 with complete response, 4 with partial response, 6 with stable disease) with gross disease. Distant metastasis, response to treatment, and treatment setting were significantly associated with survival time. Negative prognostic factors were multiple chemotherapy and distant metastasis (affecting progression-free survival [PFS]), surgery, regional enlarged lymph nodes, underlying disease, and toxicity (affecting median survival time [MST]). Positive prognostic factors were epithelial and round cell tumor (affecting PFS), epithelial tumor, microscopic disease, no evidence of disease response, and stable disease (MST). In conclusion, a clinical benefit from toceranib treatment was noted in most of the dogs with gross disease in our study. This study suggested that the toceranib is probably selective treatment to various tumor types in small breed dogs.

  • 최근의 목록 환경에서 전거데이터의 기능이 특히 중요해지고 있다. 이에 따라 국내에서는 2019년부터 국가전거데이터의 공개와 공동 활용을 위한 시범사업을 추진하면서 국가전거를 활용한 단위 도서관의 전거데이터 소급 구축 방안을 모색하고 있다. 이 연구에서는 지난 2019년 국립중앙도서관과 KERIS에서 공동으로 추진했던 전거데이터 소급 구축을 위한 시범사업의 방식과 결과를 분석하고, 이 과정에서 나타난 방법론적 한계와 문제점을 분석한 후 보다 많은 도서관들이 국가전거를 활용하여 전거데이터의 소급 구축을 효율적으로 추진할 수 있도록 정책적 제언을 도출하는데 목적을 두었다. 이를 위해 시범사업에 참여한 A대학도서관을 사례로 하여, 전거데이터의 자동 생성률과 정확률, 그리고 자동 생성 과정에서 나타난 오류와 누락의 사례와 원인을 분석하였다. 연구결과, 국가전거를 이용한 전거데이터의 자동생성률은 20% 남짓에 불과했고, 전거형의 형식에 따라 편차가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 낮은 생성률과 오류, 누락은 종합목록이나 단위 도서관의 서지레코드 품질에서 비롯된 것이었고, 이에 따라 기존 데이터에 대한 보다 세밀한 검토와 함께 정교한 알고리즘을 개발, 적용할 필요가 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • The purpose of this study is to inquire into present conditions and problems of current performance test and to try to come up with a fundamental alternative of it. Eventually, the studies of performance test so far can be labelled 'prescription' as a prospective approach. On the contrary, the fundamental alternative can be labelled 'understanding' as a retrospective approach. It can be seen that these 'prescription' and 'understanding' do not separate but represent both extreme ends of problem-solving.'Prescription' exists for 'understanding' and the latter can be acquired through the former. Just under this assumption, it can be accepted that 'prescription' as a prospective approach of performance test is an inevitable measure to achieve the purpose of it. However, the ultimate purpose of 'prescription' should proceed to 'understanding' as a retrospective approach.

  • 두 집단간을 비교하는 다양한 임상연구에서 수집된 데이터를 분석할 때 질환에 미치는 영향을 알아보는 방법으로는 현 시점에서 어떤 특정 질환을 일으킬 수 있는 위험요인포함 우, 무에 띠라 연구대상자를 나누어, 추적 관찰하는 전향적 임상연구에서의 분석과 현 시점에서 질환 유, 무에 따라 위험요인을 과거의 연구대상자의 관찰기록을 바탕으로 확인하는 후향적 임상연구에서의 분석이 있다. 접근 방법과 연구 설계는 다르지만 두 가지 연구의 목적은 두 집단 간 명확한 차이를 확인하는데 있으며, 나아가 두집단의 분류에 영향을 주는 변수가 무엇인지를 알아보는 방법이다. 특히 임상연구에서 두 집단을 비교할 때 성별과 나이와 같은 기본적 특성변수의 영향을 통제한 상태에서 임상적 변수들의 집단 간 차이와 영향을 살펴보아야 한다. 하지만 후향적 연구에서는 과거의 관찰기록을 바탕으로 분석이 진행되는 연구이므로 연구대상자를 두 집단으로 무작위 할당하지 못했기 때문에 기본적인 특성변수들이 차이가 나는 경우가 빈번하게 발생할 수 있다. 이를 해결하기 위하여 임상자료를 분석하는 방법으로 공변량을 사용한다. 대표적으로 공변량을 사용하는 분석방법으로는 공분산분석, 수정회귀모형, propensity score matching 방법 등이 있다. 본 연구는 후향적 임상연구에서 공변량을 이용한 자료 분석 방법 및 propensity score matching 방법을 소개하고, 실제 위암 환자들의 재발관련 자료에 적용하여, 그 필요성을 확인한다.

  • In this presented study, we established a method for diagnosis of porcine epidemic diarrhea(PED) by in situ hybridization(ISH), which made distinct progress in diagnostic pathology. We also carried out the retrospective diagnosis through ISH to assume the exact time of the first outbreak and incidence of PED in Korea. The outbreak of PED in Korea reported in 1992. However, since the end of 1980's, some researches of pig-industry have already suspected the outbreak of PED, not transmissible gastroenteritis(TGE). In this experiment, we performed the ISH using 80 formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded tissues of porcine intestine which were requests for pathological diagnosis from 63 farms whose primary sign was diarrhea from 1984 to 1991. We prepared biotinylated cDNA probe(492base pairs) for ISH by nick translation method and carried out the ISH, using $Microprobe^{TM}$ capillary action system(Fisher $Biotech^R$). We detected PED virus in intestinal mucosa of 2 cases in 1992, 1 case in 1988, and 1 case in 1987. As a result, we assume that the outbreak of PED in Korea have already started since 1987.

  • The purpose was to implement drug utilization review (DUR) for whom were diagnosed with chronic kidney disease (CKD) population using health insurance claim data. This study constructed drug utilization database using Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service (HIRA) database and selected contraindicated drugs with kidney based on previously developed drug utilization guide and reviewing other countries' examples. Main outcome measures were the proportion of prescription for 1 or more drugs of concern. The cohort included 115,948 subjects, who were diagnosed with chronic kidney disease. Inappropriate drugs with CKD patients was some used, and the most commonly prescribed classes were aluminum drugs. However it is difficult to find problems with inappropriate drug because claims data doesn't have laboratory data. Based on the result of retrospective drug utilization review study, more studies should be analysed drug utilization patterns and monitoring system should be developed.

  • Background Periareolar Augmentation Mastopexy is one of the most challenging operations in plastic surgery. Problems with scar quality, areolar widening, and distortion are frequent problems that interfere with a predictable result. Methods A retrospective review was performed on fifty consecutive patients who underwent a periareolar augmentation mastopexy with the interlocking approach. Of the 50 patients, 30 had both preoperative and postoperative photographs and were the basis of the study. Results The age of the patients ranged from 19 to 56 years with the average age being 39 years. The postoperative follow-up averaged 9.5 months and the implants averaged 316 mL. There were no deaths, pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis, or infected implants. Four patients had complications following surgery for an overall complication rate of 13%. Two patients developed an infected Gore-Tex suture. Two of these complications were treated with revision surgery. Five patients required reoperation for an overall reoperative rate of 16% (one patient was converted to a full mastopexy). Conclusions As a result of this retrospective study, we have found the interlocking approach to periareolar augmentation/mastopexy to be a safe and reliable operation.

  • Statement of problems: There are few studies which reported the survival rates of the specific dental implant systems in the Korean population with the follow-up periods longer than 5 years. Purpose: This retrospective clinical study was aimed to evaluate cumulative survival rate (CSR) of $Br{\aa}nemark$ implants followed for 10 years and to determine risk factors for implant failure. Material and methods: A total of 271 $Br{\aa}nemark$ implants in 83 patients were investigated with several identified risk factors. Life table analysis was undertaken to examine the CSR. Cox regression method was conducted to assess the association between potential risk factors and overall CSR. Results: Thirty implants failed. The 10-year implant CSR was 82.5%. Cox regression analysis demonstrated a significant predictive association between overall CSR and implant length (P<.05). Conclusion: An acceptable long-term result of $Br{\aa}nemark$ implant was achieved and implant length showed a significant association with the CSR.

  • Objectives The purpose of this study is to investigate the characteristics of inpatients who were admitted to Korean medicine hospital due to shoulder pain. Methods Characteristics of four hundred ten shoulder pain inpatients of single institution from 2011 to 2013 were retrospectively reviewed through medical charts. Results Patients showed different characteristics in sex, age, motives, interval between onset and admission day, first occurrence or not, related medical history before admission, usage of west medication, admission days, treatment results, radiological examinations by shoulder pain disease groups. Accordingly, Korean medical treatment such as acupuncture, moxibustion, external treatment, cupping therapy, physiotherapy, herb-medication varied with the characteristics of shoulder pain disease groups. Conclusions Through retrospective medical charts review, characteristics of 410 single institution shoulder pain inpatients showed distinctive features and versatile Korean medicine treatments by disease groups. It is expected that this study would accelerate multi-institutional and large scale characteristic review of shoulder pain patients, which would raise reconsideration and expand boundary of Korean medicine.
