Objectives : This study is to report the effects of Bangkibokryeong-tang(Fanjifuling-tang(BBT)) on stroke patient with Urinary tract infection.(UTI) Methods : A stroke patient diagnosed as UTI was treated with BBT (防己茯笭湯) at one-month intervals. We observed body temperature, amount of urine and recorded photographs of any changes during the treatment period. Treatment efficacy was assessed using urinary analysis. Results : After the treatment, there was improvement in urine analysis. And the symptoms of UTI and her conditions got better. Conclusion : The report suggests that BBT is effective in controlling various symptoms related to UTI with antibiotic resistance on stroke patient.

Purpose: A few Korean studies have reported that low urine acidity and hyperuricemia are related to metabolic syndrome. Therefore, we evaluated the relationships between urine pH, serum Uric Acid (UA), and metabolic risk factors in university students. Methods: Data were obtained from student health examinations in one university. Participants were 3,412 male and 4,214 female students. Descriptive statistics, t-test, logistic regressions and multiple logistic regression using SPSS version 18.0 were performed. Results: No significant relationship was found between metabolic risk factors and urine pH. From the univariate analysis, serum UA was significantly higher in obese ($BMI{\geq}25$), elevated blood pressure ($SBP{\geq}130$ and $DBP{\geq}85$), and higher triglyceride (${\geq}150$) groups for males and in obese, higher triglyceride and fasting blood sugar (${\geq}100$), and lower HDL-cholesterol (<50) groups for females. From the results of multivariate analysis, age, BMI, and triglyceride were significantly related to serum UA in males, BMI and HDL-cholesterol were significantly related to serum UA in females. Conclusion: Although there was no significant relationship between urinary pH and metabolic risk factors, significant associations between some of the metabolic risk factors and serum UA were found in the young adult population. Further studies are required to know the exact pathway between serum UA and metabolic syndrome.

목적 근치적 방광적출 후 회장 신방광형성술을 시행 받은 방광암 환자는 수술 후 혈뇨를 보일 수 있는데, 이는 종양 재발에 대한 불안을 유발할 수 있다. 그러나 종양 재발뿐 아니라 호두까기 증후군이 수술 후 혈뇨의 원인이 될 수 있으며, 이는 빈번한 증후군일 수 있음을 증명하려고 한다. 대상과 방법 2011년부터 2016년까지 근치적방광적출 후 회장 신방광형성술을 시행 받은 255명의 방광암 환자를 대상으로 조영증강 복부골반 컴퓨터단층촬영과 소변검사 소견을 후향적으로 분석하였다. 컴퓨터단층촬영에서 호두까기 증후군 소견의 유무는 좌신정맥 흐름 패턴을 평가하여 판단하였다. 소변분석에서는 총 소변검사에서 혈뇨가 양성인 비율에 따라 환자를 분류하였다. 결과 컴퓨터단층촬영에서 호두까기 증후군 소견은 135명의 환자 중 31.9%에서 나타났다. 혈뇨 양성 그룹에서는 호두까기 증후군의 소견이 없는 환자보다 있는 환자가 26% 더 많았다. 결론 호두까기 증후군의 소견은 수술 후 방광암 환자에게 빈번하였으며, 호두까기 증후군 소견과 혈뇨 사이에는 유의미한 상관관계가 있었다. 또한 호두까기 증후군 소견의 유병률은 수술 후 요로의 종양 재발률보다 높았다.
