In patients with locally advanced head and neck cancers who do not respond to induction chemotherapy and who have locoregional recurrence after local treatment subsequent radiotherapy alone does not have any additative effect. The theoretical rationale and promising clinical response of concurrent chemoradiotherapy in patients with the head and neck cancers have been recently conducted Ten patients(9 stage IV, q stage III) were treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy(radiotherapy start from day 1 of chemotherapy; cisplatin $100mg/m^2$ intravenously every 3 weeks for $3{\sim}4$ cycles on day 1.22 and 43..). Four patients achieved complete response(CR) and overall response rate was 80% (8/10). The major toxicities we re leukopenia (90%), nausea/vomiting(80%), stomatitis(80%) and peripheral neuropathy(30%). Most of these side effects were mild to moderate and reversible.

Purpose: A survey was done on knowledge of pain and pain interventions by clinical nurses in Deagu city and Kyoungbuk province. Method: The participants in this study were 209 nurses who worked in Daegu city, and 190 nurses who worked in Kyoungbuk province. The data were collected from August 5, to September 15, 2002. The data were analyzed with SPSS WIN 10.0 program using numbers, percentages, averages and standard deviation with t-test and ANOVA. Result: Out of a total of 30 points on general knowledge of pain, the clinical nurses had a high score of 28, and a low of 10. The average was 18.6 (SD=3.14). Of the participants, 57.9% reported not having had any pain education and 67.9% agreed that education is a necessity. Of pharmacological interventions, Tylenol had the highest score at 3.44 out of a possible 4 points. The most frequent route for giving medication was intramuscular injection (42.6%) and for 62.7%, there was a decision by the physician for routine medication or prn. On reactions after medication, moderate relief had the highest frequency (41.9%), and for side effects after the medication, feeling of nausea was most frequent (70.4%). Of the nonpharmacological approaches to pain relief, ice bag had the highest score with 2.95 out of a possible 4. Judgement to give medication was made by the nurse for 50.1% of the participants and 647% reported a little relief from pain. Conclusion: Based upon the results, continuing education and developing a better education programs (including pain mechanism, pain assessment, pharmacological interventions and nonpharmacological interventions) are needed for systematic pain management. Nurses need a high level of knowledge of pain, to be active in pharmacological interventions and nonpharmacological interventions.

가상 환경 속의 참여자는 가상 객체와의 상호작용을 통해 실제와는 다른 몰입감과 인지적 경험을 하게 된다. 최근에는 누구나 쉽고 저렴하게 가상 환경을 경험할 수 있는 스마트폰 기반의 머리 착용형 디스플레이(HMD)들과 광시야각의 고품질 HMD들도 폭넓게 상용화되고 있다. 하지만, HMD의 근본적 수렴-초점조절 불일치 구조와 현실 세계에서 학습된 인지 차이로 인한 어지러움, 메스꺼움 등의 부작용은 여전히 극복해야 할 문제로 남아 있다. 본 연구는 여러 인지 차이 요인 중 가상 객체와의 상호작용에 중요한 일관된 크기 인지에 초점을 두고 있다. 실제 환경에서 물체의 크기 인지에 영향을 주는 시각도가 가상 환경에서도 주된 요인인지 검증하고, 그 시각도와 가상 객체 크기 인지에 도움을 주는 환경 구성 요소인 그림자와 격자 표현과의 관계를 분석한다. 회귀 분석 결과 시야각이 작은 HMD 환경에서 시각도는 크기 인지에 영향을 미치며, 그림자와 격자 표현도 크기 인지와 유의미한 결과를 얻었다.

2003년부터 2008년까지 경북대학교병원 구강내과를 내원한 삼차신경통 환자 90명의 임상 소견 및 약물 치료에 대한 결과를 분석하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 삼차신경통 환자는 40대 이상이 94.4%를 차지하였고 남녀비가 1:2.1로 여성에서 거의 2배 정도 호발하였다. 2. 삼차신경의 상악분지에 단독으로 이환된 경우가 51.1%로 가장 많았고 좌우비가 1:2.9로 우측에 더 자주 발생하였다. 3. 85명(94.4%)의 환자가 경북대학교병원 구강내과에 내원하기 전 삼차신경통을 치료하기 위해 다른 의료기관을 내원한 경험이 있었다. 3. 40명(44.4%)의 환자가 현재 치료 중인 전신질환을 가지고 있었다. 4. Carbamazepine 단독 투여로 69명(76.7%)의 환자가 효과를 나타내었으며 이 때 사용된 Carbamazepine의 일일 용량은 평균 402.9mg이었다. 반면에 16명(17.8%)의 환자는 Carbamazepine과 다른 약물을 복합 투여하여 효과를 나타내었고 사용된 Carbamazepine 일일 용량은 평균 618.8mg이었으며 가장 많이 사용된 병용 약물은 Baclofen이었다. 나머지 5명(5.6%)의 환자는 Carbamazepine으로 효과를 얻지 못했다. 5. Carbamazepine 단독 투여에 효과가 있었던 69명 중 39명은 내원 기간 동안 지속적인 효과를 나타내었으나 30명은 Carbamazepine에 대한 효과가 감소하였거나 부작용으로 인해 복합 투약을 시행하였거나 다른 약물로 교체 또는 신경외과로 의뢰하였다. 6. 54명(60%)의 환자에서 Carbamazepine 투여 후 현기증, 졸음, 오심, 혈구 감소, 피부 발진 등의 부작용이 발생하였으나 대부분 그 정도가 미약하거나 일시적이었고 11명의 환자가 부작용으로 인해 Carbaamzepien 투약을 중단하였다.

연구배경: 1980년대 들어서 폐결핵의 치료는 INH, RFP, EMB(또는 SM)의 6개월 표준 단기 요법이 정착되었고 치료 성적 또한 괄목한 만한 향상을 보여왔으나 초치료 실패 및 재치료 실패 환자에서는 약제 내성 및 약제 부작용으로 인한 치료 중단이 큰 문제가 되었다. 1980년대 개발된 Quinolone 계통의 항생제인 OFX은 감영성 호흡기 질환 치료제로서의 역할을 할 뿐만 아니라, 최근에는 결핵 치료제로 사용되고 있다. 이에 따라 저자들은 PTA, CS, PAS, OFX을 사용하여 폐결핵 환자들의 재치료 또는 재재치료의 임상효과를 알아보았다. 방법: 1993년 3월부터 1995년 8월까지 국립 공주 결핵병원에 입원하였던 객담내 결핵균 양성 환자중 초치료및 재치료에 실패한 환자로 추척이 가능한 66명을 대상으로하여 후향적 조사를 하였다. 결과: 1) 객담내 균음전 객담 도말 양성 환자 66명 중 42 명(64%)이 15개월내에 객담내 균음전되었다. 2) 흉부 X-선상의 호전은 경증에서는 3명(75%), 중등중에서는 23명(64%), 중증은 12명(46%)이었고, 전체적으로는 38명(58%)에서 호전되었다. 4) 질병 기간에 따른 균 음전율은 각100%(병력이 1년미만), 88%(1-3년), 80%(3-5년) 그리고 52%(5년이상)이었다. 5) 부작용 PTA의 부작용은 위장판 장애(소화불량, 구역, 구토, 복통등)와 경한 간기능 장애를 보여주었고, CS은 정신상태 이상(주로 불면과 감정장애)이 8명(12%)에서 있었으며, 경련은 없었다. PAS에 의한 위장 장애는 오심, 구토, 복부 불쾌감과 같은 위장장애가 대부분으로 41명(62%)에서 관찰되었다(Table 5). 결론: 폐결핵 치료 역시 다른 모든 질환과 마찬가지로 환자의 병력이 젊을수록, 흉부 X-선상의 병변이 적을수록 좋은 성적을 보였으며, 38명(58%)의 경우에는 X-선상의 호전을 보였으나 일부에서는 매우 제한적이고 더 이상의 호전을 기대하기가 어려울 것으로 생각되는 예도 있었다. 부작용으로는 위장장애(소화장애, 오심, 구토, 변비, 설사)가 주가 되었으며, 위장장애는 대부분의 경우에서는 규칙적인 증상 치료로 많은 호전을 가져 왔다. 또한 무엇보다도 전문가에 의한 적절한 치료약제의 결정과 지속적인 항결핵제 복용을 위한 정기적인 의사와의 면담 및 추후검사가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

Serum TSH levels were measured by radioimmunoassay before and after intravenous administration of synthetic thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) to 15 normal subjects and 55 patients with primary thyroid disease (14 patients with euthyroidism, 24 patients with thyrotoxicosis and 17 patients with hypothyroidism) to evaluate pituitary TSH reserve and its diagnostic availability. The observed results were as follows. 1. In normal subjects, serum TSH responses to synthetic TRH were $3.2{\pm}1.0$ at 0min (baseline TSH level), $8.0{\pm}4.0$ at 10min, $11.7{\pm}5.0$ at 20min, $13.7{\pm}7.1$ at 30min, $9.7{\pm}5.0$ at 60min., $5.2{\pm}2.0$ at 120min. and $3.6{\pm}0.4{\mu}U/ml$ at 180 min. Serum TSH peaked at $20{\sim}30$ minutes and returned nearly to baseline at 180minutes. 2. In euthyroid group, serum TSH responses to synthetic TRH were $3.3{\pm}1.6$ at 0min, $8.6{\pm}8.0$ at 10min, $10.9{\pm}8.5$ at 20min, $12.5{\pm}8.4$ at 30min, $9.0{\pm}5.9$ at 60min, $5.6{\pm}2.6$ at 120min and $3.5{\pm}1.3{\mu}U/ml$ at 180min. No significant difference revealed between euthyroid group and normal subjects (p>0.05). 3. In hyperthyroid group, serum TSH responses to synthetic TRH were $1.5{\pm}0.6$ at 0min, $2.2{\pm}0.8$ at 10min., $2.3{\pm}1.0$ at 20min., $2.4{\pm}1.5$ at 30min., $2.1{\pm}1.1$ at 60min., $1.9{\pm}0.2$ at 120min. and $1.5{\pm}0.8{\mu}U/ml$ at 180min., No response to TRH showed. 4. In hypothyroid group, mean values of serum TSH response to synthetic TRH were 42.0 at 0min., 60.6 at 10min., 124.8 at 20min., 123.0 at 30min., 101.6 at 60min., 64.3 at 120min. and $15.5{\mu}U/ml$ at 180 min., Patients with primary hypothyroidism showed an exaggerated TSH response to synthetic TRH despite their high basal TSH. 5. Side effects attending synthetic TRH administration were transient nausea (59.0%), desire to micturate (59.0%), feeling of flushing(19.7%), dizziness (45.9%), metallic taste (9.8%) and headache (19.7%). Any side effect didn't show in 16.4%. These symptoms began almost immediately after TRH intravenous injection and lasted several minutes, and not related to dose or response in the person experiencing it.

Patient-Controlled Analgesia (PCA) has been widely used for postoperative pain relief. Meperidine is useful for PCA and has efficient analgesia, rapid onset, and low incidence of adverse effect. To compare the analgesic effect, total dose and hourly dose, side effect and neonatal status of breast feeding with meperidine via intravenous or epidural PCA for 48 hours after Cesarean Section, 40 parturient women undergoing elective Cesarean Section were randomly divided into two groups. Each respective group of 20 parturient women received meperidine via one of the intravenous PCA after general anesthesia with enflurane (IVPCA group) and the epidural PCA after general anesthesia with enflurane (IVPCA group) and the epidural PCA after epidural block with 2% lidocaine 20ml combined with general anesthesia with only $N_2O$ and $O_2$ (EpiPCA group) when they first complained of pain in recovery room. Following the administration of analgesic initial dose, parturient women of IVPCA group were allowed intravenous meperidine 10 mg every 8 minutes when they felt pain. The EpiPCA group received additional bolus dose of meperidine 2 mg and bupivacaine 0.7 mg were administered every 8 minutes as requested the patients with hourly continuous infusion of meperidine 4 mg and bupivacaine 1.4 mg. Data was collected during the 48 hours observation period including visual analog scale (VAS) pain scores, total meperidine dose, hourly dose during 48 hours and each time interval, incidence of adverse effect, satisfaction, and neonatal status with breast feeding. VAS pain scores of analgesic effect in EpiPCA group was significantly lower than in IVPCA group at 2 hours after the initial pain after Cesarean Section. Total dose and hourly dose of meperidine significantly reduced in EpiPCA group. Hourly dose of meperidine at each time interval significantly reduced during first 6 hours and from 12 hours to 24 hours in EpiPCA group. The side effects in IVPCA group were mainly sedation, nausea, and local irritation of skin. And EpiPCA group experienced numbness and itching. The degree of satisfaction of parturient women was 88.2 % in IVPCA group and 85.7 % in EpiPCA group. We did not observe any sedation, abnormal behavior, or seizure like activity in any neonates of breast feeding. From the above results we conclude that epidural PCA was more efficiently analgesic, less sedative, and consumptional, and safer for neonate than intravenous PCA, and could be an alternative method to intravenous PCA.

This study was perfromed to develop the assessment guideline and endpoints for clinical trial with anticancer herbal medicine. The botanical products used to humans for long time may be applied to phase 3 clinical trial after submitting the evidences for safety and efficacy of them or completion of basic requirement of phase 1 and phase 2 for safety confirmation and dose determination. Syndrome improvement was chiefly evaluated by Zubrod and karnofsky(%) methods. We suggest the general clinical trial assessment with botanical products, by following assessment points, that is, tumor size for 50 points, survival fate for 10 points, major syndromes for 40 points. It is recommendable that the each symptom of Qi deficiency syndrome, blood deficiency syndrome and Qi stagnation syndrome was allocated by assessment points, Similarly, the each symptom was given the assessment points according to the severity of symptom, for example, slight for 3 points, moderate for 2 points and severe for 1 point in hepatocelluar carcinoma and lung cancer. Then, the efficacy of botanical products was evaluated by the difference between pre-treatment and post-treatment. Asking the neoplastic patients of questionnaire on physical, emotional, cognitive, social and role subjects availability, three more syndromes (Fatigue, Pain and Nausea/Vomit), quality of life(QOL) will be evaluated by GLM statistics. In addition, in case of lung cancer, 13 questions will be asked by the EORTC QLQ-C13 forms. As the assessment of endpoints for efficacy to reduce side effects induced by chemotherapy and radiotherapy, the data of image scanning and hemato-urinalysis can be usefully applied on immune response, weight loss, indigestion, hemopoietic damage and injury of liver and kidney, while the changes of syndromes of side effect can be evaluated by differentiation methods of Qi and blood and five viscera. However, it is still necessary to determine the ratio between scientific analytical method and Oriental differentiation method as well as confirm the Oriental assessment endpoints by clinical trial. In addition, we suggest the continuous development of assessment endpoints on other carcinomas except of hepatocelluar carcinoma and lung cancer in future.

The quinolones are broad-spectrum antibiotics and enhanced antimicrobial activity has extended the use of the quinolones beyond the traditional indications for quinolone antibiotics in the treatment of urinary tract infections. The quinolones are effective in a wider variety of infectious diseases, including skin and respiratory infections. Because of their excellent safety and tolerability, they have become popular alternatives to penicillin and cephalosporin derivatives in the treatment of various infections. A retrospective study was performed to evaluate efficacy and safety of IV quinolones for inpatient use. Total 117 patients who administerd quinolones for longer than 3 continuous days at community hospital from October 1st, 2008 to December 31st, 2008 were reviewed. The criterias for drug evaluation were included the validation of indication, outcome, dosage and side effects. In the results, ciprofloxacin 13 (total 93), levofloxacin 3 (total 59) and moxifloxacin 2 (total 19) cases were not met the criterias based on the culture results. Major indications were pneumonia (ciprofloxacin 16.3%, levofloxacin 67.8%, moxifloxacin 84.2%), urinary tract infection (ciprofloxacin 44.1%), skin infection (ciprofloxacin 7.5%, levofloxacin 20.3%, moxifloxacin 10.5%), intra-abdominal infection (ciprofloxacin 10.8%, moxifloxacin 5.3%), etc.. In the results of quinolone monotherapy, the frequencies were each ciprofloxacin 74.2%, levofloxacin 50.8% and moxifloxacin 47.4%. In the results of dosage validation, the validities were each ciprofloxacin 54.8%, levofloxacin 94.9% and moxifloxacin 100.0%. In the results of duration validation, the validities were each ciprofloxacin 59.1%, levofloxacin 78.0% and moxifloxacin 89.5%. Adverse drug reactions were reported for total 49 cases and those were gastrointestinal tract effects including nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and central nervous system effects including headache, dizziness. In summary, the quinolones appropriately used for hospitalized patients based on this study. A focused approach emphasizing "correct use of quinolones" may reduce development of antimicrobial resistance and maximize class efficacy. Consequently, correct use of antibiotics will contribute to decrease medical expenses for person and community.
