The survey on branchial anomalies was conducted by Korean Association of Pediatric Surgeons. A total of 173 cases were reported, which were managed by 36 members and cooperators during the three years from January 1, 1993 through December 31, 1995. The following results were obtained by retrospective analysis of the 173 cases of branchial anomalies. The presenting symptoms were cervical mass in 101 cases, pit with or without discharge in 71, cervical abscess in 47 and respiratory difficulty in 3. The average age of the patients with cervical abscess was 52 months. Seventy(79%) of 89 patients with branchial anomalies and a cystic mass had their first clinical manifestations by 1 year of age, while 40(51%) of 78 patients with only a branchial cyst had their first clinical manifestation in first year of life. Radiologic studies were carried out in 77 patients (43%). The preferred diagnostic modalities were ultrasonography(47 patients), simple neck radiogram(19) and CT scan(17). Preoperative diagnosis was correctly made in 156(91%) of 173 patients. Seventeen patients were incorrectly diagnosed as thyroglossal duct cyst in 5 patients, cystic hygroma in 4, dermoid cyst in 3, and lymphadenopathy in 3. There were no remarkable difference in sex and laterality of presentation but bilateral lesions were found in 9(5%) patients and unusual locations of the anomalies were the manubrium, left subclavicular area, median cervial area, preauricular and parotid area. There were 78(45%) patients with cyst, 52(30%) patients with sinus, 35(20%) patients with fistula and 8(5%) patient with skin tag. Embryological classification was possible in only 64(37%) patients. The 2nd branchial anomaly was present in 50(78%), the 1st branchial anomaly in 10(18%), and the 3rd or 4th branchial anomaly in 4(6%). Histopathological study of the lining epithelium(N=134) is recorded that 45% were lined with squamous epithelium, 17% with respiratory epithelium, 6% with. squamous and respiratory epithelium, 14% with inflammatory change. Lymphoid tissue was common(62%) in the wall of the lesions. Twelve(7%) of 158 patients had postoperative complications including wound complication, recurrence and facial nerve palsy.

The gracilis that is frequently used as a donor of free muscle trasfer is appropriate in the muscular shape and vascular position. This muscle is belonged to the second type of muscle group by the classification of the pattern of muscular nutrient vessel. The adductor branch or first perforating branch of deep femoral artery which supplies the proximal 1/3 of this muscle is a dominant one and this is used for the microscopic anastomosis of muscle or musculocutaneous flap. The minor vascular pedicles which enter the distal 1/3 of this of this muscle are branches of the superficial femoral artery and it is 0.5mm in diameter, 2cm in length with two venae comitantes. These minor pedicles supplies distal half of the gracilis muscle. This island musculocutaneous flap using distal vascular pedicle can be used to cover the defect of soft tissue around the distal femoral supra-condylar area, knee joint and proximal tibial condyle area which cause limitation of motion of knee joint, or in the cases that usual skin graft is impossible. The important operative procedure is as follows; The dissection is carried proximally and distally and the entire gracilis muscle including proximal and distal pedicle is completely dissected. After temporary blocking of the proximal vascular pedicle, the adequate muscle perfusion by the distal pedicle is identified and it is rotated to the recipient site around knee joint. The advantages of this procedure are simple, no need of microscopic vascular anastomoses and no significant functional loss of donor site. Especially in the cases of poor condition of the recipient vessel, this procedure can be used effectively. From 1991 to 1996, we performed 4 cases; complete survival of flap in 3 cases and partial survival of flap with partial necrosis in 1 case. This procedure is though to be useful in the small sized soft tissue defect of distal femoral supra-condylar area, knee joint and proximal tibial condylar area, especially in the defect of anterior aspect which expected to cause limitation of motion of knee joint due to scar contracture. But the problems of this procedure are the diameter of distal vascular pedicle is small and the location of distal vascular pedicle is not constant. To reduce the failure rate, identify the muscular perfusion of distal vascular pedicle after blocking the proximal pedicle, or strategic delay will be helpful.

본 연구는 국내에서 재배중인 '개량머루', '거봉', '홍이슬' 품종의 anthocyanin 조성을 UPLC-ESI-MS/MS를 이용하여 조사하였다. '개량머루'는 착색에 불량하게 작용하는 기상 조건에서도 착색이 우수한 흑포도 품종이고, '거봉'과 '홍이슬'은 교잡종 포도로 각각 검정색과 분홍색 과피를 갖고 있다. 과피에서 추출된 anthocyanin의 조성은 UPLC-ESI-MS/MS를 이용하여 분석하였다. 각 품종에서 검출된 anthocyanin은 '개량머루'와 '거봉'에서는 각각 25가지, '홍이슬'에서는 21가지였고, 각 품종에서 검출량이 많았던 anthocyanin은 8(개량머루), 15(거봉), 5(홍이슬)가지였다. 세 품종 모두 mono-glucoside가 di-glucoside보다 많았으며, '개량머루'와 '거봉'은 malvidin이 많았던 반면, '홍이슬'은 cyanidin이 가장 많았다. '개량머루'는 acylated anthocyanin(2.0%)은 거의 존재하지 않았고 '거봉'과 '홍이슬'에서는 p-coumaric acid의 acylation이 가장 많았다. Cyanidin feruloyl glucoside가 '홍이슬'에서만 검출되어 품종 지표로 활용이 가능하였다. 결론적으로 anthocyanin의 조성을 anthocyanidin, 결합된 당의 개수, acylation 및 특정 anthocyanin을 기준으로 분류하여 품종의 특징이 확인되었다. 이러한 품종별 anthocyanin 특성을 이용하여 '개량머루'가 Vitis amurensis 혹은 그 교잡종의 가능성과 '홍이슬'에서 품종 구별의 기준으로 활용 가능성이 확인되었다.

Background: Pilomatrixoma is a benign tumor that originates from the hair follicle matrix. It usually presents as a hard, slow growing, solitary mass that can be easily misdiagnosed as other skin masses. The aim of this study was to clinically analyze a case series of pilomatrixoma in pediatric patients from Korea. Methods: A total of 165 pediatric patients from 2011 to 2018 with a histological diagnosis of pilomatrixoma were included. A retrospective review was performed using the electronic medical records, including patient demographics, number and location of the mass, clinical and imaging presentation, and postoperative outcomes. Results: There were 61 male and 104 female patients with 152 solitary and 13 multiple pilomatrixomas. Among solitary pilomatrixomas, the lesion commonly occurred in the head and neck (84.2%), followed by upper limbs (11.2%), lower limbs (3.3%), and trunk (1.3%). The pilomatrixoma lesion presented as the following types based on our clinical classification: mass (56.02%), pigmentation (25.31%), mixed (12.65%), ulceration (4.82%), and keloid-like (1.2%). Ultrasonography showed a high positive predictive value (95.56%). There were no specific complications observed except for two cases of recurrence. Conclusion: Pilomatrixoma has various clinical feature presentations and commonly occurs in the head and neck. Ultrasonography is a helpful diagnostic tool. Surgical removal of the lesion is the main treatment method with a low recurrence rate.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between the blood pressure level and their sexual maturity and physical growth in the children at puberty. For this purpose, we estimated the blood pressure, physical growth and sexual maturity of the boys of 335 and girls of 373 who are in the middle schools which are located in Kangwha County, Kyungki-Do. Both systolic and diastolic pressure were measured twice. Such physical growth as height, body weight, skin fold thickness, waist circumference, hip circumference and arm circumference were measured. The sexual maturity was estimated according to the classification of Tanner's 5-phase-sexual-maturity : in boys, their pubic hair development phase : in girls, their pubic hair and breast development phase and the menstrual experience. In the phase of the pubic hair development, the boy's sexual maturity was distributed into this; the 1 st 56.4%, the 2nd 29.3%, the 3rd 9.9%, the 4th 4.1% and the 5th 0.3%. While the girls sexual maturity was distributed into this the 1st 20.5%, the 2nd 34.9%, the 3rd 30.6% the 4th 12.6% and the 5th 1.3% in the phase of the pubic hair development, and the 1st 0.8%, the 2nd 13.7%, the 3rd 36.2%, the 4th 18.8% and the 5th 30.5% in the phase of the breast development. This indicated that the girls sexual maturity was higher than those of the boys. The girls menstrual experience rate accounted to the 58.2%. In order to see the relationship between the children's sexual maturity and blood pressure level, we regress blood pressure level on physical growth (i.e., height, BMI) and sexual maturity. Sexual maturity in treates as dummy variables. As the resulf of this analysis, the boys' sexual maturity has nothing to do with the blood pressure either systolic or diastolic. But the girl's systolic pressure was statistically significant ; the 9% of the physical growth, the 5% of the pubic hair development and the 4% of the breast development in sexual maturity was explained. In the girls' diastolic pressure, only their pubic hair development was statistically significant ; the 7% of the physical growth and the 7% of the pubic hair development in the diastolic was explained and the 5% of the physical growth in the diastolic Korotokoff phase IV and the 2% of the pubic hair development in the diastic Korotokoff phase was explained, especially, the girls exprienced menstruation, their systolic and diastolic pressure were significantly high (P<0.01). Conclusively, in the first grade children attending middle schools who are in the early process of the sexual development, the sexual maturity was not related to blood pressure level, on the other hand, the blood pressure level of the girls who are more sexual development than those of the boys' have something to do with sexual maturity and physical growth.

The usage of appropriate disinfectants is essential for infection control in dental hospitals, dental clinics. Inadequate use of disinfectants is the cause of human or environmental toxicity and is a waste of cost. This study was aimed to assess the level of knowledge on the disinfection and chemical disinfectants among dental workers in dental hospitals, dental clinics. It's ultimately intended to serve as a basis for the preparation of more effective, appropriate educational programs on the disinfection and manuals on the use of disinfectants for dental workers. This study enforced a questionnaire with 184 dental workers employed in dental hospitals, dental clinics from 15 Aug. to 15 Sep. 2007, in the area of Daejeon. The obtained result were as follows; 1. The population sociological feature of dental hospital and dental clinic showed that significant differences of dental service career(pM0.039). Dental service career of dental workers shows; below 3 years 42.9%, 4~6 years 34.7%, more than 7 years 22.4% in dental hospitals, below 3 years 30.4%, 4~6 years 26.7%, more than 7 years 43.0% in dental clinics(pM0.039). 2. The average score of dental workers knowledge in 'Critical item soaks in high-level disinfectants for 20minutes was 2.73V0.49 point, got from knowledge of dental instrument is appropriate to immerse before sterilization in the dental device disinfection(pM0.002). 3. In the general disinfection which it follows in education experience of chemical disinfectants direction for use, 'Direction for use by Spaulding process classification' responded that the correct answer was the education experience dental workers 60.0%, the education non-experience dental workers 39.5%(p=0.026). 4. In the dental device disinfection which it follows in education experience of chemical disinfectants direction for use. 'High level disinfection is not applied for the non-critical items and equipment' responded that the education experience dental workers 49.2%, the education non-experience dental workers 31.9%(pM0.045), 'Semi-critical items is applied same method in presence of the infection disease which it acts responded that the education experience dental workers 44.6% answer back, the education non-experience dental workers 24.4%(pM0.017). 5.

후두암은 유병율이 높지만 조기에 발견하면 90% 이상의 치유율과 발성기능의 보존이 가능하며 현재 음성분석을 이용한 진단법이 시도되고 있으나 정립된 선별검사법은 없는 실정이다. 성문전도검사(electroglottography, EGG)는 성대의 진동양상을 알 수 있는 비침습적 검사로서 발성과 음성합성의 연구에 많이 사용되고 있다. 본 연구는 EGG에서 관찰되는 파라미터들을 다층 퍼셉트론(multilayer perceptron)구조의 신경회로망(artificial neural network)으로 감별하는 기법을 이용하여 후두암 감별법에 대한 연구로서 부산대학교병원을 내원한 후두암 환자 10명과 양성후두질환 26명을 대상으로 새로 고안한 Electroglottograph(v1.0)를 이용하여 검사하고 이의 임상적 유용성을 평가하였다. EGG 파라미터인 closed quotient(CQ), speed quotient(SQ), speed index(SI), fundamental frequency(F0), Jitter, Shimmer 등은 MATLAB 6.5 (Mathwork, Inc.)로 작성한 분석 프로그램을 이용하여 추출하였다. 각 환자에서 추출된 EGG 파라미터들을 다층 퍼셉트론 구조의 신경회로망으로 감별하였다. CQ는 각 질환군 간에 유의한 차이가 없었지만 SQ, SI, Jitter, Shimmer 등은 성대질환의 특성에 따라 유의한 차이를 보였다. 신경회로망에서 감별한 결과 CQ를 제외한 SQ, SI, Jitter, Shimmer 등에서 71.3-90%의 후두암의 감별율을 보였다. 또한 SQ, SI, Jitter, Shimmer를 3개씩 조합한 실험에서는 SQ-Jitter-Shimmer와 SQ-SI-Shimmer의 후두암의 감별율이 93%로 가장 높았고, SQ-SI-Jitter 90.9%, SI-Jitter-Shimmer 88.6%로 전체적으로 85% 이상의 높은 감별율을 나타내었다. 이러한 결과는 EGG검사와 신경회로망을 이용한 양성과 악성 후두질환의 감별이 가능함을 시사한다. 향후 성대 질환의 병태생리를 대변할 수 있는 파라미터가 추가로 개발되고 분류 알고리듬이 개선된다면 EGG를 이용한 성대질환의 감별 진단이 보다 정확해질 것으로 사료되었다.

This study was performed from March to September 1997 on 95 healthy students to observe the effects of acupuncture at Hap-kok (LI4) according to the meridian and qi-xue(氣血) phenomenon of oriental medicine's theory. Skin temperature on the Hap-kok (LI4) and Chun-Choo (ST25) were measured by D. 1. T. I. (Digital Infrared Thermograph Imaging) before acupuncture stimulation and 1min, 10 min after acupuncture stimulation. 1. In healthy students, the left and right mean temperature of LI4 and ST25 was $29.04\;^{\circ}C,\;29.12\;^{\cir}C\;and\;30.29\;^{\circ}C,\;30.22\;^{\circ}C$ respectively. 2. In control group, the time dependent changes for 10 min of LI4 and ST25 were $-0.32\;^{\circ}C,\;-0.36\;^{\circ}C\;and\;-0.5\;^{\circ}C,\;-0.46\;^{\circ}C$ respectively, however, the thermal differences of both sides LI4 and ST25 were not changed for 10 min. 3. In acupuncture stimulation of both sides LI4, the time dependent changes of ST25 were $-0.13\;^{\circ}C,\;-0.06\;^{\circ}C$, and the thermal differences of both sides ST25 were reduced, but not changed significantly. In acupuncture stimulation of right side LI4, the time dependent changes of LI4 were $-0.1\;^{\circ}C,\;-0.32\;^{\circ}C$ respectively, and the thermal differences of both sides LI4 were increased more than control, but not significantly. Also, that of ST25 were changed by $-0.69\;^{\circ}C,\;-0.63\;^{\circ}C$ respectively, but not significantly. 4. In acupuncture stimulation group, it was classified following the thermal differences of both sides LI4 and ST25, and the effects of acupuncture were observed by changes of classification. The acupuncture of both sides LI4 results in temperature of the left side ST25 to be high after acupuncture. The acupuncture of right side LI4 results in increased ratio of the left side higher than right LI4. The above results indicates that D. I. T. I. was a useful method to observe follow-up the effects and changes by acupuncture stimulation on objective evaluation of phenomenon for the meridian system. Thus, acupuncture on LI4 affects to thermal changes of ST25 and LI4, but exact examination of thermal changes on ST25 will have to be.
