Objectives : Risperidone is a new antipsychotic drug developed to overcome the therapeutic limitation of conventional antipsychotics. It responses to negative as well as positive symptoms by blocking both dopaminergic and serotonergic receptors, causing no significant side effects such as agranulocytosis and seizure. It is, however, not known whether it induces any serious cardiovascular side effects as evoked by other conventional antipsychotic drugs. The aims of this study were to evaluate the effect of risperidone on cardiovascular function, and to discuss the factors affecting the cardiovascular function. Methods : For 42 patients(22 males and 20 females) diagnosed as schizophrenia, schizophreniform disorder or schizoaffective disorder according to the DSM-IV classification, the cardiovascular fuctions such as heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, PR interval, QRS interval and QT interval were successively checked before and after 2 weeks and 4 weeks risperidone administration. Furthermore, variables such as body weight, Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale(BPRS), Clinical Global Impression(CGI), Extrapyramidal Symptom Rating Scale(ESRS), Anticholinergic Rating Scale(ARS), serum cholesterol level, serum triglyceride level, serum high-density-lipoprotein level, serum WBC, serum Hb, serum platelet level, prothrombin time and partial thromboplastin time were also analyzed before and after 2 weeks and 4 weeks risperidone administration. Results : 1) Risperidone treatment resulted in a significantly decreased heart rate and increased QT interval after 4 weeks administration(p<0.005 respectively). 2) The scores of BPRS and CGI were significantly decreased after 2 weeks and 4 weeks risperidone administration as compared with baseline(p<0.001 respectively). The scores of ESRS and ASRS were significantly increased after 2 weeks and 4 weeks risperidone administration as compared with baseline(p<0.001 respectively). 3) There were positive correlations between heart rate after 4 weeks and total dose(P<0.05). Blood pressure was significantly(p<0.05) correlated with sex(higher in male) and significantly(p<0.05) positive correlated with body weight. QT interval was significantly(p<0.05) correlated with sex(longer in female) and smoking history(shorter in smokers). Conclusions : Risperidone could induce significant change in heart rate and Q-T interval. Therefore, the cardiovascular safety for risperidone should be reconsidered according to the duration and dosage increase.

목 적 : 소아 신증후군에서 스테로이드 장기투여에 따른 대사성 골질환은 흔한 합병증 중의 하나이다. 저자들은 성인에서의 스테로이드 유발성 골다공증 치료에 유효한 bisphosphonate(alendronate)를 투여하여 소아 신증후군에서 스테로이드 유발 대사성 골질환에 대한 치료효과에 대해 전향적으로 평가하고자 하였다. 방 법 : 신증후군 이환 기간이 2년된 5-8세의 환자 58명에게 DEXA로 골밀도를 측정하여 요추 골밀도가 Z-score -1 이하인 환아 30명(51.7%)을 대상으로 선정한 후 이들을 alendronate 주 1회 투여군, calcitriol 투여군, 약제 비투여군등의 세 군으로 분류하여 1년간 연구하였다. 치료 6개월, 1년에 요추 L1-L4 골밀도를 측정하였고 치료 전과 치료 1년 후 생화학적 검사를 측정하였다. 각 군간 평균 연령, 기저 요추 골밀도, 스테로이드 축적량, 골밀도% 변화율, 요추 골밀도 Z-score를 측정 분석하였다. 결 과 : 총 30명 환자에서 기본 요추 골밀도 측정시 환아의 나이는 $7.4{\pm}1.7$세였고 신증후군 이환기간은 $2.2{\pm}1.2$년이었다. Z-score로 진단된 골밀도 감소증은 23명(76.7%), 골다공증은 7명(23.3%)이었다. 각 생화학적 변수들은 치료 전후로 차이가 없었으며, 군 간에도 유의한 차이가 없었다(P>0.05). 빈번 재발형 신증후군과 스테로이드 의존형 신증후군은 22명(73.3%)으로 드문 재발형 신증후군 8명(26.6%)에 비해 대사성 골질환의 빈도가 높았다. 골밀도 변화율은 alendronate 군에서 치료 1년에 8.56%였고, calcitriol군은 5.79% 증가를 보였으며, 비투여군은 1.9%증가를 보였다. Z-socre 변화는 alendronate 군과 calcitriol 군에서만 호전되었고, 비투여군에서는 감소하였다. 골밀도 증가율은 각 군간 유의한 차이를 보였지만(P=0.0002), alendronate 군과 비투여군, calcitriol 군과 비투여군 간에 있었고(P<0.05), alendronate 군과 calcitriol 군간에는 유의한 차이가 없었다. Alendronate 투여시 약복용을 중단할 만큼의 심각한 부작용은 발현되지 않았다. 결 론 : 소아 신증후군 환자에서 고용량의 스테로이드를 투여해야 하는 경우 대사성 골질환의 발생 위험이 높기 때문에 정기적인 골밀도 측정이 필요하며, 그 평가 도구로는 요추 골밀도 Z-score가 유용함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 신증후군 환아의 스테로이드 유발 대사성 골질환에서 alendronate 주 1회 경구투여는 요추 골밀도를 증가시키는 효과적인 치료법이었다.

Objective : The therapeutic impact of tumor resection in glioblastomas is poorly defined and still questionable. Therefore, we conducted the current study to verify the role of tumor resection in the treatment of these highly malignant tumors. Methods : A retrospective study was performed(1990-1999) to compare the treatment results of surgical resection plus radiotherapy(130 patients) with those of stereotactic biopsy plus radiotherapy(19 patients) in glioblastomas. Only adult patients with supratentorial, de novo glioblastoma located in one lobe were included. Survival time/rate was analysed with Kaplan-Meier method, and prognostic variables were obtained from the univariate log-rank test and the multivariate Cox's proportional hazards model. Results : The resection group and the biopsy group did not differ in terms of age, gender, duration of symptoms, presenting symptoms, tumor location, tumor side, tumor size, and the frequency of midline shift. Patients in the biopsy group more often were found to have worse preoperative Karnofsky performance status(KPS)(p=0.001). On univariate analysis, age, KPS, and tumor side were associated with survival(p=0.0053, 0.0001, and 0.0331 respectively). Median survival time and 1-year survival rate were also statistically improved by tumor resection ; resection group - 13 months and 61.2%, and biopsy group - 8 months and 19.7%, respectively(p=0.0001). In patients with midline shift of the tumor, resection was highly effective comparing to biopsy(p=0.0001), but in patients without midline shift, external beam radiation alone was as effective as tumor resection(p=0.0605). Other prognostic variables did not affect survival. On multivariate analysis after variable selection, survival was independently associated with KPS(p=0.001), but not the surgical resection(p=0.2837). Even in biopsy group with midline shift of the tumor, survival rate was not different from that seen after tumor resection(p=0.3505). Conclusions : Radiotherapy alone was as effective as tumor resection plus radiotherapy in patients without midline shift of the tumor. Although there was not statistically significant, tumor resection looked like effective in patients with midline shift. For supratentorial, lobar glioblastoma patients without mass effect of the tumor, biopsy with radiotherapy is one of rational treatment strategies. We consider that tumor resection should be performed in patients with pretreatment midline shift.

The chemical formula of indapamide is 3-(aminosulfonyl)-4-chloro-N-(2,3-dihydro-2-methyl-1H-indol-l-yl)-benzamide, Indapamide is an oral antipertensive diuretic agent indicated for the treatment of hypertensive and edema. Indapamide inhibits carbonic anhydrase enzyme. Transdermal drug delivery systems, as compared to their corresponding classical oral or injectable dosage form counterparts, offer many advantages. The most important advantages are improved systemic bioavailability of the pharmaceutical active ingredients (PAI), because the first-pass metabolism by the liver and digestive system are avoided; and the controlled, constant drug delivery profile (that is, controlled zero-order absorption). Also of importance is the reduced dose frequency compared to the conventional oral dosage forms (that is, once-a-day, twice-a-week or once-a-week). Other benefits include longer duration of therapeutic action from a single application, and reversible action. For example, patches can be removed to reverse any adverse effects that may be caused by overdosing. In order to evaluate the effects of vehicles and penetration enhancers on skin permeation of Indapamide, the skin permeation rates of Indapamide from vehicles of different composition were determined using Franz cells fitted with excised hairless skins. Solubility of Indapamide in various solvents was investigated to select a vehicle suitable for the percutaneous absorption of Indapamide, The solvents used were Tween80, Tween20, Labrasol, Lauroglycol90 (LG90) and Peceol. Lauroglycol90 increase the permeability of indapamide approximately 3.75-fold compared with the control. Tween80, Tween20, Labrasol, Lauroglycol90 (LG90) and Peceol showed flux of $0.06ug/cm^2/hr,\;0.4ug/cm^2/hr,\;0.21ug/cm^2/hr,\;0.72ug/cm^2/hr,\;0.29ug/cm^2/hr$, respectively.
