Secondary peptic ulceration and gastritis have been known to be associated with stress, exogenous agents, drugs or infection. Salicylate (aspirin) ingestion has been known to be associated with increased incidence of gastric ulcer and more frequently as the cause of hemorrhagic gastric erosions and gastritis. Some medications such as tetracyclines and iron preparations have been associated with ulceration of the gastrointestinal tract. Chemotherapeutic agents including cytoxan and methotrexate also have been implicated in the development of mucosal and gastrointestinal ulcers. We have experienced two cases of hemorrhagic gastric ulcers due to creosote ingestion in a 13 month and a 5 year old boys. Creosote is a main component of one of the popular digestives, Jungrohwan in Japan and Korea.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the possiblity of Foodwaste and co-treatment with other waste for vermistabilization. The value of oxidation-reduction potential(Eh) of the dewaterized foodwaste by a plant of subatmospheric evaporation was a possitive(+) value indicating, but the values of pH, salinity was idicating an unfavorable condition for earthworm life. The paper mill mixing waste properties by ripening for 20days were changed into the favorable range for earthworm. The growth of earthworms in foodwaste and mixing waste of paper mill 30% was found to be 68%, 84% for the survival rate, 227%, 275% for the liveweight increasing rate, respectively. The ingestion rate of foodwaste and mixing waste of paper mill 30% indicate 0.72g/g·d, 0.81g/g·d, respectively. About 62∼75% of ingestion amount produce cast and characteristics of cast indicate pH 6.1∼6.5 organic component 34∼42%, salinity 0.35∼0.4, CEC 73∼94 me/100g, N, P, K concentration 0.8∼1.2%, 0.4∼1.6%, 0.43∼0.5% respectively. Therefore it can be evaluated that the casts are good soil condition and organic fertilizer.

The present study was conducted to investigate the effect of different levels of ethanol ingestion on 131ate metabolism and plasma homocysteine concentration in Sprague-Dawley male rats receiving 0, 10, 30% of their caloric intake as ethanol for S weeks. Diets containing 10% ethanol had no effect on plasma and red blood cell(rbc) 131a1e. However, in rats fed a 30% ethanol diet, rbc folate increased and plasma 131ate decreased significantly, In the rats maintained first on a 30% ethanol diet for S weeks and then on a control diet for 2 weeks, the levels of plasma and rbc f31ate were normalized by withdrawal of ethanol. Urinary fo1ate excretion increased markedly in rats fed 10% and 30% ethanol diets and decreased to 51% of controls by withdrawal of ethanol. Plasma homocysteine concentration increased significantly in rats fed a 30% ethanol diet. The results suggest that chronic ingestion of ethanol increased urinary 131ate excretion markedly, which may decrease plasma 131ate and deplete liver folate.

Amitraz is a formamidine-derived insecticide and acaricide which is commonly used throughout the world. Amitraz intoxication is mediated through ${\alpha}_2$ adrenergic receptor agonist effects, similar to those of the ${\alpha}_2$ agonist clonidine. We report a case of a patient who experienced coma and hypotension after amitraz ingestion. A 37-year-old woman visited the ER with symptoms of vomiting and altered mental state. She had ingested a mouthful of liquid amitraz concentrate (12.5%), which rapidly led to vomiting, hypotension, bradycardia, hyperglycemia, and mental stupor. Supportive treatment, including mechanical ventilation and administration of inotropics, resulted in full recovery within four days.

Because of the ready availability of aspirin, salicylate poisoning remains a common problem in many countries. Another potential source of salicylate poisoning is medicated oil containing methyl salicylate (oil of wintergreen). Methyl salicylate poses a much greater safety threat than aspirin tablets because of its liquid, concentrated form and high lipid solubility. Because of this danger, the toxic potential of medicated oil containing methyl salicylate should be fully appreciated both by physicians and by the general public. We encountered two cases of salicylate poisoning resulting from accidental ingestion of Chinese medicated oil. We report these cases along with a review of the literature.

Foreign body ingestion is a frequent event in the pediatric age group, but the incidence of foreign bodies in the appendix is very low. The authors report a case of ingested foreign body trapped in the appendix in a 7-year-old girl. The foreign body was successfully treated by laparoscopic appendectomy under fluoroscopic guidance.

육상 섭취 경로에 따른 내부 피폭선량 계산 모델 KFOOD의 파라메터 불착실성 및 민감도를 몬테칼로법을 사용하여 수치 분석하였다. 쌀을 통한 섭취 경로의 경우 KFOOD 코드에 의한 예측치는 아주 보수적인 값을 나타내었다 모델에서 민감도가 큰 입력변수는 방사능의 침적속도와 식물전이제수였다.

비록 크기가 크지 않고, 가장자리가 뾰족하거나 날카롭지 않지만, 1개 이상의 자석을 삼킨 경우나 혹은 자석과 금속류를 함께 삼킨 경우에는 장의궤양, 천공, 누공 등의 합병증을 일으킬 수 있으므로 신속한 제거가 필요할 것으로 생각되며, 저자들은 3개의 팔찌자석을 삼킨 후 동반된 위궤양 1례를 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

부식제에 의한 식도부식증은 한기의 적절한 치료로써 식도협착증의 발생을 방지할 수 있다. 그러나 부적절한 치료등으로 부득이 기되는 식도협착증의 치료방법으로는 경구적 카테테르법, 인도사법, 무단소식자법, 역행소식자법 등과 같이 각종 boogie를 사용하는 법과 수술적인 요법 등이 사용되고 있다. 저자들은 부식제에 의해 발생한 심한 협착증을 경구적 카테테르법으로 치료에 실패한 환자를 영양섭취를 위한 위루경형성술과 함께 무단소식자법에 의하여 치료에 성공한 2예를 보고하는 바이다.

A 36-year-old female was transferred to our emergency medical center with decreased mental status after a 6.0 g propafenone overdose because of domestic disturbance. She had no previous history of epilepsy, diabetes mellitus, hypertension or psychiatric illness. Before presenting to our center, gastrointestinal decontamination, charcoal administration, and endotracheal intubation due to bradycardia and generalized seizure had been performed. Soon after hospital arrival, at 5 h after ingestion, she collapsed into shock and fatal arrhythmia. We successfully resuscitated the patient with amiodarone, sodium bicarbonate, a large volume of normal saline, calcium, and ventilator care. At 23 h after ingestion, she was fully recovered and had no subjective signs or symptoms. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of intentional propafenone overdose in Korea, which we report with reviews of the previous literature.
