Oligomeganephronia is a rare congenital form of bilateral renal hypoplasia histologically characterized by reduction in number and hypertrophy of nephrons. Clinically, this condition is presented in early infancy with vomiting, polyuria, polydipsia and dehydration. The problems are readily corrected, but slowly progressive renal failure follows accompanied by failure to thrive, short stature, and renal osteodystrophy. We experienced three cases of oligomeganephronia. Case 1. : A 3 2/12 years old female child was incidentally diagnosed as renal failure at age of 2 months when she was hospitalized due to pneumonia. She had open renal biopsy and was diagnosed as bilateral dysplastic kidney. On OPD follow-up, she progressed to end-stage renal failure (BUN/Cr 114/4.6 mg/dl) and had renal transplantation. The specimen was shrunk remarkably and light microscopy showed oligomeganephronia. Case 2. : A 14 8/12 years old female child with proteinuria was detected in an annual urine screening program for school children, she was diagnosed as renal failure (BUN/Cr 33.9/4.1 mg/dl), and had $5{\times}4{\times}3\;cm$ sized mass on abdominal CT scan. She had renal biopsy, and the specimen showed oligomeganephronia. She had hemodialysis for six months, and renal transplantation along with bilateral nephrectomy was performed. Case 3. : A 14 8/12 years old male child was diagnosed having chronic nephritis and chronic renal failure at 3 years old, progressed to end-stage renal failure (BUN/Cr 87/9.6 mg/dl) on OPD follow-up, and had a rephrectomy and renal transplantation. The biopsy specimen showed oligomeganephronic hypoplasia, secondary focal segmental glomerolosclerosis, and chronic interstitial nephritis. We report 3 cases of oligomeganephronia that progressed to end-stage renal failure and had successful renal transplantation with a brief review of related literatures.

200 patients admitted to the Chest Surgery Department of Jeonbug National University Hospital from January, 1974 to December, 1981 were analyzed clinically. The ratio of male to female was 7: 1, which showed male predominance. Distribution of patients according to age disclosed that over half [62%] of the patients was social age between 20 and 49 years. The most common cause of chest trauma was traffic accident [39%], and the next were stab wound, fall down [17.5%], and hit [8.5%] in decreasing order. Common lesions due to chest trauma were as follows; rib fracture [51%], hemopneumothorax, hemothorax, and pneumothorax in decreasing number. The most common cause of rib fracture was traffic accident [50%] and the associated organ injuries were long bone fracture, head injury, spine and pelvic bone fracture, spleen rupture, and liver laceration. Hemothorax, pneumothorax, and hemopneumothorax were treated with insertion of thoracic catheter in 90 cases, pure thoracentesis in 11 cases, and emergency thoracotomy in 11 cases. In flail chest, 6 patients were treated by intramedullary insertion of Kirschner`s wire and the results were good. The incidence of complication was 17%, including atelectasis [11 cases], pyothorax, fibrothorax, pneumonia, and acute respiratory failure. Four patients were died [2%], and the causes were acute respiratory failure in 2 cases, spinal cord injury in one case and head injury in one case.

KTX 차량은 수많은 기계, 전기 장치 및 부품들로 구성되어 있는 하나의 시스템으로 차량의 유지보수에는 상당히 많은 전문성과 유지보수 작업자들의 경험을 필요로 한다. 차량 고장발생 시 유지보수자의 지식과 경험에 따라 문제 해결의 시간과 작업의 질적 차이가 발생하며 그에 따른 차량의 가용율이 달라진다. 일반적으로 문제해결은 고장 매뉴얼을 기반으로 하지만 경험이 많고 능숙한 전문가의 경우는 이와 더불어 개인의 노하우를 접목하여 신속하게 진단하고 조치를 취한다. 이러한 지식은 암묵지 형태로 존재하기 때문에 후임자에게 완전히 전수되기 어려우며, 이를 위해 사례기반의 철도차량 전문가시스템을 개발하여 데이터화된 지식으로 바꾸려고 하는 연구들이 있어왔다. 하지만, 간선에 가장 많이 투입되고 있는 KTX 차량에 대한 연구나 텍스트의 특징을 추출하여 유사사례를 검색하는 시스템 개발은 아직 미비하다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 이러한 차량 유지보수 전문가들의 노하우를 통해 수행된 고장들에 대한 진단과 조치 이력을 문제 해결의 사례로 활용하여 새롭게 발생하는 고장에 대한 조치가이드를 제공하는 지능형 조치지원시스템을 제안하고자 한다. 이를 위하여, 2015년부터 2017년동안 생성된 차량고장 데이터를 수집하여 사례베이스를 구축하였고, 차원축소 기법인 비음수 행렬 인수분해(NMF), 잠재의미분석(LSA), Doc2Vec을 통해 고장의 특징을 추출하여 벡터 간의 코사인 거리를 측정하는 방식으로 유사 사례를 검색하였으며, 위의 알고리즘에 의해 제안된 조치내역들 간 성능을 비교하였다. 분석결과, 고장 내역의 키워드가 적은 경우의 유사 사례 검색과 조치 제안은 코사인 유사도를 직접 적용하는 경우에도 좋은 성능을 낸다는 것을 알 수 있었고 차원 축소 기법들의 성능 비교를 통해 문맥적 의미를 보존하는 차원 축소 방식 중 Doc2Vec을 적용하는 것이 가장 좋은 성능을 나타낸다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 텍스트 마이닝 기술은 여러 분야에서 활용을 위한 연구들이 이루어지고 있는 추세이나, 본 연구에서 활용하고자 하는 분야처럼 전문적인 용어들이 다수이고 데이터에 대한 접근이 제한적인 환경에서 이러한 텍스트 데이터를 활용한 연구는 아직 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구는 이러한 관점에서 키워드 기반의 사례 검색을 보완하고자 텍스트 마이닝 기법을 접목하여 고장의 특징을 추출하는 방식으로 사례를 검색해 조치를 제안하는 지능형 진단시스템을 제시하였다는 데에 의의가 있다. 이를 통해 현장에서 바로 사용 가능한 진단시스템을 단계적으로 개발하는데 기초자료로써 시사점을 제공할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

It has been over 20 years since successful operations of Cardiac valves at the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular surgery, college of medicine, Yonsei University. About six hundreds of patients with severely symptomatic valvular heart disease have had valve operations with complete loss or sharp decrease in their cardiac symptoms since 1956. As the number of cardiac patient increases, reoperation on valves assumes greater importance. To define the group of patients undergoing reoperations on valves and the factors influencing their survival, we have reviewed our experiences of the reoperation on valves at the Yonsei University, Severance Hospital. This is a report of 29 cases which was undergone secondary or more surgery for valvular heart disease from 1966 to 1983. The primary operations includes 159 cases of open heart surgery from 1966 to 1975 and 476 cases from 1976 to march, 1983. The secondary operations are classified into groups of secondary valvuloplasty or valvotomy [8 cases], prosthetic valve replacement following valvuloplasty or valvotomy [14 cases] and prosthetic valve rereplacement [2 case] for such as calcification, degeneration and perforation of the cusps and paravalvular leakage, of the bioprosthetic valves. The leading indication for reoperation of mitral valve was restenosis or stenoinsufficiency, The indications of aortic valve replacement was active bacterial endocarditis, medically uncontrollable prosthetic endocarditis or paravalvular leakage. Overall death rate of the reoperation was 17.4% [5 death among the 29 patients] and the leading causes of death were myocardial failure, arrhythmia, cerebral embolism, acute renal failure due to low output syndrome. And it was followed by sepsis associated with active prosthetic endocarditis. The death rate of reoperation was 4.3% in the elective cases except urgent cases and the death rate of overall cardiac valve except reoperation cases was 4.1% in the last two years. Although the general mortality of reoperation was high, both mortality rates were comparable except emergency cases due to urgent preoperative patient’s condition.

In recent days, family planning is not only a problem limitted to our country but an important problem for the while world to solve. Up to present, various methods of sterilization have been developed for population control. When a patient with a previous tubal sterilization by operative method develops any symptoms and signs of pregnancy, we strongly consider it ectopic pregnancy and intrauterine pregnancy. As the cause of sterilization failure, we think that the tubal loop sloughs away and tubal ends either unite and recanalization results or heal and failure of union results in fistula. This present study considered of the 34 cases of ectopic pregnancies and 2 cases of intrauterine pregnancies after tubal sterilization by laparoscopy and Pomeroy's method, at the Dept. of Gynecol. in Kyung Hee University Hospital, during 6 years from Jan. 1977 to Dec. 1982. Authors take result in this study retrospectively. 1. Mean age was 33.7 years for the laparoscopic tubal sterilization group, 31.5 years for the Pomeroy tubal sterilization group. 2. The number of mean gravida and parity at the sterilization was 4.9, 2.8 for the laparoscopic tubal sterilization group, 4.2, 2.2 for the Pomeroy tubal sterilization group, :respectively. 3. The number of mean artificial abortion at the sterilization was all 2.2 for the laparoscopic and Pomeroy tubal sterilization groups. 4. Mean intervals from the tubal surgery to the incidental pregnancy was 3.2 years for the laparoscopic tubal sterilization group, and 3.8 years for the Pomeroy tubal sterilization group. 5. 63.3% of the laparoscopic tubal sterilization group had problem of inadequate tubal ligation, in comparison to having no inadequate problem in the Pomeroy tubal sterilization group. 6. The previous tubal sterilized scar was found to be 6 cases (17.6%) of inner portion, 15 cases (44.4%) of midportion, 13 cases (38.2%) of outer portion at the time of operation. The tubal site of ectopic pregnancy was found to be 23 cases (67.6%) of ampullary portion,S cases ( 4.7%) of isthmic and fimbrial portion, respectively. 7. The causes of table sterilization failure were, in order of frequency, technical error (19 cases), fistula formation (6 cases) and recanalization (5 cases) for the laparoscopic tubal sterilization group and fistula formation (2 cases), technical error (l case), recanalization (l case) fo the Pomeroy tubal sterilization group. 8. As the new applicated contraceptive method in incidental pregnant patient, Authors used 2 gravigard insertion for the two intrauterine pregnancy and 34 Pomeroys' tubal ligation, 2 total abdominal hysterectomy (due to associated pelvic inflammatory disease) for the 36 tubal pregnancy.

A number of centers have recorded a significant incidence of primary tissue valve failure with the Ionescu-Shiley pericardial valve. Clinically, Endothelialization and host tissue ingrowth on the cloth and the leaflets at the edge of the frame greatly reduced the amounts of abrasion and the incidence of tissue failure. In most cases severe regurgitation was caused by leaflet tears adjacent to the edge of the cloth-covered stent. We report a case of spontaneous disruption of one cusp on the Ionescu-Shiley pericardial xenograft in mitral position at 6years and its successful management.
