Torticollis is a deformity of the neck that shows tilting of the head toward the affected side and rotation of the chin toward the opposite side. In many cases with this condition, unilateral tightness of the sternocleidomastoid muscle is found frequently with fibrous tumor. The analysis of 43 cases of congenital muscular torticollis and result of their physical therapy are reported. The research was from Jan. 1, 1990 to Dec. 31, 1995 at Ulsan Dong Kang Hospital. The results obtained were as follows. 1. There were 30 males(69.8%) and 13 females(30.2%). Age distribution of patients showed below 2 month 20 cases(46.5%), above 1 year 7 cases(16.3%), 5~6/11~12 months 4 cases(9.3%), and 7~8 month 2 cases(4.6%). 2. 25 cases(58.1%) were on the right and 18 cases(41.9%) on the left side. Torticollis was mild to moderately severe in mild 22 cases(51.1%), moderate 18 cases (41.9%) and severe 3 cases(7%). 3. There were normal spontaneous delivery in 36 cases(83.7%), Cesaean section in 4 cases(9.3%) and breech presentation in 3 cases(7%). Sequence of birth, the 1st born babys were 30 cases(69.8%) and the 2nd born babys were 13 cases(30.2%). 4. Above fair result of physiotherapy were 36 cases(83.7%). 5. Of the 43 cases with fellow up, above fair 32 cases(74,4%) and poor 11 cases(25.6%) showed. As conclusion, passive stretch exercise of sternocleidomastoid muscle with early torticollis diagnosis seems more successful in recovery than no exercise.

숙전(熟田)에서 알팔파 재배시(裁培時) 질소(窒素)를 무시용(無施用)과 8kg/10a시용(施用) 두 조건으로 하고 근류균(根瘤菌) R. meliloti를 무접종(無接種)과 파종시(播種時)의 1회접종(回接種), 그리고 초지조성후(草地造成後) 매년접종법(每年接種法)으로 처리하였을 때 토양내 R. meliloti밀도(密度)와 건초수량(乾草收量) 변화를 3년간 조사한 결과(結果)는 다음과 같았다. 1. R. meliloti의 밀도(密度)는 질소무시용조건(窒素無施用條件)에서 시험 1년차에 크게 증가하여 시험 2년차까지 질소(窒素) 8kg/10a시용조건(施用條件)보다 높았으나(접종구(接種區) 평균(平均) 1년차:33%, 2년차:17%) 3년차에는 반대로 질소시용조건(窒素施用條件)에서 더 (접종구(接種區) 평균(平均) 3%) 높았다. 근류균(根瘤菌)의 접종(接種) 방법별(方法別)로는 매년접종법(每年接種法)(최고(最高) $2.0{\times}10^4cell/g.soil$)이 우수하였고, 계절에 따라서는 월동(越冬)으로 균주밀도(菌株密度)가 감소되었으나 하절기(夏節期) 이후 회복되는 경향을 보였다. 2. 알팔파 수량(收量)은 질소(窒素) 8kg/10시용효과(施用效果) 보다는 근류균(根瘤菌) 밀도(密度)의 영향을 많이 받으면서 처리별(處理別) 근류균(根瘤菌)의 밀도(密度)와 고도(高度)의 유의적(有意的)인 상관관계(相關關係)(Y=0.36+0.287X, $r^2=0.58^{**}$)를 보였다. 그리고 시험기간 근류균(根瘤菌) 접종(接種)에 의한 수량증가(收量增加)는 질소무시용(窒素無施用)과 시용조건(施用條件)에서 각각 접종잔효구(接種殘效區)의 경우 1년차 66, 10% : 2년차 13, 20% : 3년차 19, 13%였고 매년접중구(每年接種區)는 1년차 66, 10% : 2년차 30, 20% : 3년차 35, 36%였다. 3. 숙전(熟田)에서 알팔파 근류균(根瘤菌) 접종효과(接種效果)는 파종시(播種時) 1회접종(回接種)으로도 3년이상 증수(增收)되나 절대수량(絶對收量)을 높이기 위해서는 매년(每年) 접종(接種)하는 것이 더 바람직하였다.

Objective: To measure inter-reader agreement and identify associated factors in interpreting complete response (CR) on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) following chemoradiotherapy (CRT) for rectal cancer. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study involved 10 readers from seven hospitals with experience of 80-10210 cases, and 149 patients who underwent surgery after CRT for rectal cancer. Using MRI-based tumor regression grading (mrTRG) and methods employed in daily practice, the readers independently assessed mrTRG, CR on T2-weighted images (T2WI) denoted as mrCR_T2W, and CR on all images including diffusion-weighted images (DWI) denoted as mrCR_overall. The readers described their interpretation patterns and how they utilized DWI. Inter-reader agreement was measured using multi-rater kappa, and associated factors were analyzed using multivariable regression. Correlation between sensitivity and specificity of each reader was analyzed using Spearman coefficient. Results: The mrCR_T2W and mrCR_overall rates varied widely among the readers, ranging 18.8%-40.3% and 18.1%-34.9%, respectively. Nine readers used DWI as a supplement sequence, which modified interpretations on T2WI in 2.7% of cases (36/1341 [149 patients × 9 readers]) and mostly (33/36) changed mrCR_T2W to non-mrCR_overall. The kappa values for mrTRG, mrCR_T2W, and mrCR_overall were 0.56 (95% confidence interval: 0.49, 0.62), 0.55 (0.52, 0.57), and 0.54 (0.51, 0.57), respectively. No use of rectal gel, larger initial tumor size, and higher initial cT stage exhibited significant association with a higher interreader agreement for assessing mrCR_overall (P ≤ 0.042). Strong negative correlations were observed between the sensitivity and specificity of individual readers (coefficient, -0.718 to -0.963; P ≤ 0.019). Conclusion: Inter-reader agreement was moderate for assessing CR on post-CRT MRI. Readers' varying standards on MRI interpretation (i.e., threshold effect), along with the use of rectal gel, initial tumor size, and initial cT stage, were significant factors associated with inter-reader agreement.
