Congenital stapes fixation may develop alone or with other systemic anomalis. Acquired stapes fixation is found in otosclerosis or in chronic otitis media. It is our intent to review 4 cases (5ears) of congenital stapedial fixation and 2 cases (2 ears) of acquired stapedial fixation following chronic otitis media, treated by stapedectomy.

Meta-analysis methods are becoming a central part of research integration in behavioral and medical science studies. The main goal of the meta-analysis is combining the quantitative findings from several studies which address the same research problem and is sharing conclusions in a published report. The purpose of this research is to develop meta-analysis approach to evaluate effectiveness of instructional program design to improve school-age children's knowledge and understanding of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). To achieve this purpose, meta-analysis is applied to analyze and synthesize findings for AIDS instructional programs from several prior studies.

Generally, DEM (Digital Elevation Model) is generated by stereo-images acquired same conditions, sensor type, viewing angle, capturing elevation and etc. It is difficult to generate DEM with stereo images acquired different satellite. This study intends that it is DEM generation using pair-images with other sensor systems.

Thirty-five cases of heart disease were operated on with cardiopulmonary bypass between November, 1980 and September, 1981. 1. There were 8 cases of congenital anomaly and 17 cases of acquired heart diseases. 2. There were 7 male and ] 8 female patients, with a mean age of 21 .9 years [range 7 to 42 years]. 3. There were 2 cases of valve replacement cases with operative mortality of 8.3%. 4. Operative mortality for congenital anomaly was ~ 6.7% and 5.9% for acquired heart diseases. 5. Over all operative mortality was 11.4%.

Congenital or acquired esophagotracheobronchial fistula are rare. The chief causes of the acquired form are malignancy developing on the esophagus or tracheobronchial system and infection, and trauma. The pathognomonic symptom is a paroxysmal cough occurring several seconds after ingestion of liquids. This report reviews a case of bronchoesophageal fistula of unknown origin accompanying bronchiectasis. The patient is 32 years old woman with excellent result by surgical intervention. But the fistula is accidently found in the operation field. The surgical procedures consissts of fistulectomy with Right lower lobectomy.

Acquired esophagobronchial fistula is relatively rare disease. Its causes are malignancy of esophagus or bronchus, infection, trauma, and diverticulum of esophagus. Malignant esophagobronchial fistula is more frequent than benign origin. The patient was 21-year-old female and had typical Onos sign. On esophagogram, fistulous tract was identified between esophagus and left lower lobe bronchus. The cause was nonspecific inflammation of mediastinum. The fistulous tract was resected and reinforced by mediastinal pleura. Postoperative course was uneventful.

This phenomenological study aims at exploring the role of family in promoting, maintaining, and developing job activities of women with acquired physical disabilities. As a result of in-depth interviews with 8 women with physical disabilities, 6 theme clusters and 14 sub-themes have appeared. Participants have vividly revealed their experiences with regard to the various support and help of their family. They were provided physical, emotional and financial supports which helped at great extent to overcome the anger and loss resulted from the acquired disabilities. Although most of the participants have experienced failure in job finding several times, they have at last succeeded in it by the consistent help of their family. In particular, the support and help given from the family were substantial and specific which promoted maintaining and developing their career. Therefore the participants could obtain more confidence in themselves and this made the participants to speak for themselves. Although the family roles for the job finding and maintaining of the participants are played in various ways which is positive, effective and specific, there remains some significant problems and limitations. Participants expressed their uncomfortableness in opening their most in-depth thinking and emotions to their family. They have also experienced a great deal of difficulties in maintaining job because of the housework load and child bearing work which is mainly regarded by the family members as the woman's(participant's)duties. In addition to this, sexual needs and sexual identity of the participants are neither recognized nor dealt with seriously in family, The participants also mentioned about the inequal relationships and their self-consciousness among family member as well as the lack of career guidance role of the family. Based on these research findings, we have made a number of suggestions to promote the positive roles and overcome the limited roles of the family.

Over the past 4 decades after World War II a great deal of data and clinical experiences have been accumulated relating to the diagnosis and surgical treatment of congenital and acquired cardiovascular diseases in Korea. Clinical data on cardiovascular surgical cases performed in all 22 hospitals for open heart surgery in Korea was collected from it`s starting up to December 1984. The first recorded open heart surgery for a young adult atrial septal defect was performed by Young Kyoon Lee, M.D. on August 7, 1959, Seoul National University Hospital, Korea. And, some scattered reports on cardiovascular surgical cases in it`s early period have changed recently the number of hospitals for open heart surgery and clinical cases enormously in total amount of 13, 100 cardiovascular operations performed on 12, 990 cases up to December 1984. Of the total 13, 100 cardiovascular operations, congenital cardiovascular anomaly occupied 70%. Of the congenital cases, 6, 580 operations for acyanotic group [operative mortality 4.5%], and 2, 489 operations for cyanotic group [operative mortality 20%]. The incidence of congenital cardiovascular anomaly in order of frequency was ventricular septal defect [29%], patent ductus arteriosus [26%], Tetralogy of Fallot [22%], atrial septal defect [8, 6%], pulmonary valve stenosis [3.0%], and endocardial cushion defect [1.1%]. Of the 3, 412 valvular heart disease cases, which occupied 85% of total 4, 031 acquired cardiovascular disease, individual incidence was in mitral 2, 565 [63.5%], double valve 451 [11.1%], and simple aortic valve 351 [8.7%]. Total number of valve replaced, mechanical and tissue, was 2, 795, and 1, 884 for mitral, 808 for aortic, and 103 for tricuspid in position. Operative mortality for prosthetic valve replacement in total was 9.8%. Remained acquired cardiovascular cases chronic constrictive pericarditis [7.9%], cardiac tumor [1.9%], coronary artery bypass [1.8%], cardiac trauma [1.2%] and less than 1% of thoracic aortic aneurysm. Overall operative mortality for open and non-open cardiovascular surgical operation was 7.7% [congenital acyanotic group 3.2%, congenital cyanotic group 19.4%, and acquired group 7.8%]. In conclusion, present status of cardiovascular surgery in Korea is stabilized with accumulation of clinical cases and experiences, and the future in the field of cardiovascular surgery is promising, especially in the infant cardiac surgery and aortocoronary bypass surgery, with abrupt increase of specialized cardiac centers, trained specialists, and expanding social health insurance.
