본 연구는 miniplate(Titanium C-tube, Martin Co., Germany)를 교정적 고정원으로 사용하여 교정력 및 악정형력을 즉시 가했을 때 miniplate의 안정성 및 주위 조직 반응을 관찰하여 고정원으로서의 유용성을 밝히고자 시행되었다. 네 마리의 비글 성견을 대상으로 하악의 좌우 협측 제3소구치와 제4소구치 사이에 두개의 titanium miniscrew(직경 2.0mm, 길이 7.0mm)에 의해 고정되는 miniplate를 식립하여 15주 동안 200-250gm의 힘을 가한 교정력 적용군과 8주 동안 400-450gm의 힘을 가한 악정형력 적용군으로 분류하였고 대조군은 제4소구치와 제1대구치사이에 식립하고 힘을 가하지 않았다. 동요도는 식립 직후와 희생 직전에 측정하여 비교하였고 희생 후 제작된 조직 절편을 방사선적으로 검사하여 주위 골의 흡수 여부를 관찰하였다. 실험 동물은 관류 고정하고 조직 절편은 레진 포매하여 비탈회 경조직 표본을 제작하였다 miniplate 제거 후의 조직의 치유와 연조직의 관찰을 위해 일부 조직편은 탈회 표본으로 제작하였다. 표본은 H&E 염색 후 광학 현미경하에서 검경하였고 위의 실험내용을 통해 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 교정력과 악정형력을 적용한 두 그룹 모두 miniscrew와 골간의 계면에는 직접적인 골유착이 일어났다. 힘의 크기에 따른 차이는 관찰되지 않았고, 힘의 적용기간이 증가함에 따라 골침착이 증가되었으며, 하중이 가해지지 않은 대조군이 실험군에 비해 골조직이 덜 침착되었다. 2. Miruplate와 miniscrew를 피개하고 있는 연조직은 염증소견 없이 모두 치유가 잘 일어났다. 3. 모든 실험군에서 동요도는 발생되지 않았고, 하중이 가해지지 않은 대조군의 경우 경미한 동요도를 보였으며, 교합력이 직접 가해진 대조군에서 고정원이 탈락될 정도의 동요도를 보였다. 4. Miniscrew 제거 후의 연조직 및 경조직은 정상조직의 형태와 구조로 치유되었다. 이상의 결과로 miniplate(Titanium C-tube, Martin Co., Germany)는 식립 즉시 악정형력 정도의 힘까지 수용할 수 있고, 인접 조직에 자극이 적은 골내 고정원으로서 충분한 가치가 있다고 판단되어 진다.

목 적: 열성경련을 증명하기 위해 반드시 뇌척수액 검사를 시행하여야 하는지, 또한 뇌척수액 검사를 유보한다면 유보할 수 있는 조건은 무엇인지 알기 위해 추적조사를 시행하였다. 방 법 : 1996년 1월부터 1999년 12월까지 만 4년간 열을 동반한 경련을 처음 경험하여 마산삼성병원 응급실로 내원한 생후 1개월 이상 5세 이하 환아 197명을 조사 대상으로 하였고 최초 관찰된 경련양상은 단순 열성경련 및 복합 열성경련으로 구분하였으며 각각의 경련형태에 따른 뇌수막염의 진단율을 조사했으며 또한 연령별, 계절별, 동반된 임상증세별, 그리고 혈액검사의 결과 등에 따른 뇌수막염의 빈도를 조사하였고 얻어진 자료는 chi-square test로 검정하였다. 결 과 : 총 197명의 열이 동반된 경련이 있었던 환아 중 7.6%에서 뇌수막염으로 진단되었고, 이 중 세균성 뇌수막염은 1례에 불과했으며, 단순 열성경련과 복합 열성경련에서 뇌수막염의 선택성은 없었고, 6개월 이하의 영아에서 뇌수막염의 발생률이 12.5 %로 비교적 높았고 남아에서 뇌수막염 빈도가 높았으며 뇌수막염의 빈도는 여름과 가을에 높았다. 해열된 후 외양적으로 양호한 전신상태인 경우에도 불구하고, 6.5%에서 뇌수막염이 나타났다. 오심과 구토증세가 있었던 경우 11%이었고 이 중 뇌수막염은 9.1%로 나왔으나 통계적 의미는 없었다. 그러나 첫 경련후 간헐적인 추가적 경련이 있었던 경우 33.3%에서 뇌수막염으로 진단되어 통계적 의의가 있었고 더구나 세균성 뇌수막염으로 진단된 1례의 경우 총 5차례의 추가적 경련과 빈번한 구역과 구토가 있었다. 결 론 : 열이 동반된 경련을 하는 환자에게서 뇌척수액 검사의 궁극적인 목적은 세균성 뇌수막염을 배제하는 것일 것이다. 그러나 세균성 뇌수막염이 열이 동반된 경련의 원인이 되는 경우는 극히 드물다는 것은 여러 연구에서도 언급되었고 본 조사에서도 이를 잘 입증하고 있다. 뇌척수액 검사의 목적이 세균성 뇌수막염을 밝히는데 있다고 한다면 몇몇 임상증세를 감안하여 소아과 전문의와 숙련된 간호사의 세심한 관찰만으로 뇌척수액 검사를 유보 할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

I. 서 론 : 변비(便秘)는 우리가 임상에서 흔히 접하는 위장관의 증상으로서, 사람들은 배변의 횟수가 너무 적거나, 대변을 힘들게 보는 경우, 대변이 너무 딱딱하거나 양이 적은 경우 혹은 배변이 너무 고통스럽거나 불완전한 배변감이 있는 경우 등과 같이 다양한 형태로서 변비라고 생각하여 병원을 찾게 된다. 그러나 변비는 식이와 사회 및 의료 환경 등의 요인에 의해 많은 영향을 받기 때문에 변비 환자의 진단 및 치료적 접근에 앞서 이러한 다양한 인자 등을 감안하여 객관적인 표준화된 정의를 설정하는데 있어 방사선학적 진단이 유용하고 이에 관한 진단적 접근방법에 대해 알아보고자 한다. II. 본 론 : 대장의 운동기능을 평가하는 검사법 가운데 가장 기본이 되는 검사가 대장통과시간(Colon transit time, CTT) 검사이다. 대장통과시간은 만성 변비증 환자의 병태생리에 따른 유형 분류와 치료 계획의 설정에 커다란 도움을 주고 있다. 방사선 비투과성 표지자(Radiopaque marker)를 이용하는 방법, 다수 표지자 사용법(Multiple marker technique), 신티그라피 측정법(Scintigraphic measurement)이 있다. 배변조영술은 항문 직장의 해부학적 정보뿐만 아니라 배변 시 항문, 직장의 변화와 골반저의 운동상태를 파악할 수 있는 기능적 방사선학 검사이다. 배변 시 항문 직장의 역동적 관찰은 배변이상 환자의 진단 및 치료방침 결정 그리고 추적검사에 도움을 준다. 마지막으로 병력에서 빠뜨려서는 안되는 것이 행동 장애나 정서 장애와 같은 정신심리학적 요인이 동반되어 있는지를 세심하게 판단하는 것이다. 이런 경우에는 이러한 정신과적 문제와 관련된 약물 복용의 유무와 종류에 대해서도 파악을 하여야 한다. III. 결 론 : 변비의 흔한 원인에는 섬유질 섭취가 충분하지 못한 경우, 수분 섭취가 충분하지 못한 경우가 많으며, 변비환자에서의 이러한 검사의 목적은 변비의 기질적 병인을 확인하기 위함으로서, 통상 이러한 방사학적 검사를 통해 결장과 항문직장의 기능에 대한 정보를 얻을 수 있는 것은 아니다. 변비 환자의 병태생리에 따른 유형을 구분하여 향후 검사 및 치료방침을 설정하는 데 중요한 정보를 제공하고 환자의 예후를 예측하는데도 도움이 될 것으로 생각된다.

Purpose: A classic approach to abdominal stab wounds has been a routine laparotomy for the purpose of diagnosis or treatment. However, management protocols for abdominal stab wounds are still contentious in most trauma centers. We examined the relationship between the character of the stab wound and the injured intraabdominal organs by retrospectively analyzing the medical records of patients with abdominal stab wounds admitted to Gil hospital, and the findings for our patients are then confronted with a review of the literature. We aimed to propose proper management protocols to approach abdominal stab wounds. Methods: The medical records of all 80 patients sustaining abdominal stab wounds, admitted at the Department of Surgery, Gil Hospital, Gachon Medical School, from January 2004 to December 2008 were retrospectively reviewed. All the abdominal stab wounds were collated based on the site and the character of the injury, investigations performed on admission, results of investigations, operations performed and findings at the time of the operation. Results: The most prevalent age group was patients in their forties and the average age of the patients was 41 years for both genders. The stab wounds were most commonly located at the periumbilical area (16.9%), followed by the epigastric area (15.6%), and 18.2% of the patients had multiple wounds. The most commonly eviscerated organ was the omentum (9 out of 16 cases); 61.7% of non-eviscerated patients underwent a therapeutic laparotomy while 81.3% of eviscerated patients underwent a therapeutic laparotomy. The small bowel was the most commonly injured organ (22.7%, 17 out of 75 injuries). The review revealed a relatively common diaphragmatic injury in abdominal stab wound patients (8 cases, 10.5%). The average hospital stay was 11 days. Conclusion: This review revealed commonly eviscerated and injured intraabdominal organs in abdominal stab wound patients and their relationship with a therapeutic laparotomy. Although the management is still controversial, the authors suggest indications for an immediate laparotomy and a protocol for managing abdominal stab wounds. Hemodynamic instability and peritoneal irritation signs are definite indicators for an immediate laparotomy, but the review revealed intraabdominal organ evisceration alone not to be a statistically significant factor. In addition, the authors suggest that abnormal CT findings can be valuable for making a decision on management of hemodynamically stable stab wound patients. Further study may clarify a role for a more selective approach to operative intervention and for a more extensive use of selective observation.

배경: Transforming growth factor-beta 1 receptor II(TGF-${\beta}1RII$) 단백질의 과발현이 폐기포 조직의 형성에 관여할 수 있다는 연구 결과를 본 연구팀은 발표한 바 있다. 이와 관련하여 폐기포벽에서 발견되는 섬유화에 관계될 것으로 생각되는 Transforming growth factor-beta 1(TGF-${\beta}1$) ligand의 발현의 변화를 보기 위하여 자연기흉 환자에서 폐기포 절제슬로 획득한 폐 기포조직을 면역조직화학적 염색법으로 염색하여 관찰하려 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 36명의 자연기흉의 환자에서 비디오흉강경 폐기포절제술 시 획득된 폐기포조직을 획득하였다. 36명 환자 중 남자가 34명, 여자가 2명이었고 연령은 14세에서 38세였다. 획득된 폐기포조직을 면역조직화학적 염색방법으로 염색하였다. 결과: 36명 중 19예에서 TGF-${\beta}1$ 양성이었고 24예에서는 transforming growth factor-beta 1 receptor II(TGF-${\beta}1RII$)가 양성이었다. 19예의 TGF-${\beta}1$ 양성 예 중 15예에서 TGF-${\beta}1RII$에도 양성으로 관찰되었다. 이 같은 양성 변화는 폐기포조직과 정상 폐 조직과의 경계선에서 가장 강하게 관찰되었다. 결론: TGF-${\beta}1$의 과발현은 TGF-${\beta}1RII$ 발현의 변이 여부와 마찬가지로 폐기포벽의 섬유화를 초래하여 폐기포 형성에 영향을 미치는 것으로 생각되며 확실한 규명을 위하여 분자생물학적 및 기타 추가적인 연구가 더 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

Cellular proliferation is an intricately regulated process mediated by the coordinated interactions of critical growth control genes. Two of these factors in mammalian cells are the p53 and mdm-2 genes. A protein product of the mem-2 oncogene has been recently shown to associate with the protein encoded by the tumor suppressor gene p53. The p53 tumor suppressor protein is stabilized in response to DNA damage and other stress signals and causes the cell to undergo growth arrest or apoptosis, thus preventing the establishment of mutations in future cellular generations. Mutation or loss of p53 is a very common event in tumor progression. It occurs in about 50% of all tumors analysed including of colon, lung, breast and liver. The cellular mdm-2 gene, which has potential transforming activity that can be activated by overexpression, is amplified in a significant percentage of human sarcoma and in other mammalian tumors. Proteins encoded by the mdm-2 gene are able to bind to the p53 protein and, when overexpressed, can inhibit p53's transcriptional activation function, thus mdm-2 can act as a negative regulator of p53 function. Experimental study was performed to observe the relationship between p53 gene mutation and mdm-2 protein expression and apply the results to the clinical activity. 36 golden syrian hamster each weighing $60{\sim}80g$ were used and painted with 0.5% DMBA by 3 times weekly on the right buccal cheek(experimental side) for 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 and 16 weeks. Left buccal cheek(control side) was treated with mineral oil as the same manner to the right side. The hamsters were sacrificed on the 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 & 16 weeks. Normal and tumor tissues from paraffin block were examined for histology and immunohistochemistry observation, and were completely dissected by microdissection and DNA from both tissue were isolated by proteins K/phenol/chloroform extraction. Segments of the hamster p53 exons 5, 6, 7 and 8 were amplified by PCR using the oligonucleotide primers, and then confirmational change was observed by SSCP respectively. The results were as follows : 1. Dysplasia at 6 weeks, carcinoma in situ at 8 weeks and invasive carcinoma from 10 weeks could be observed in experimental groups. 2. p53 mutations were detected in 10 of the 36(28%) and the exons 6(6 of the 10 : 60%) was the most hot spot area among the highy conserved region(exons 5, 6, 7 & 8). 3. Immunohistochemical study confirmed 22 of the 36(61%) of p53 expression involving 10 of p53 mutations. 4. mdm-2 expression of was showed in 3 of the 36(8%) involving 1 of the 22 of p53 expression and 2 of the 14 of p53 non-expression. From the above results, mutation of p53 gene or expression of p53 protein may have the influence of the DMBA induced carcinoma of hamster buccal pouch but the expression of mdm-2 protein may not have relationship with tumorigenesis.

The major goals of periodontal therapy are the functional regeneration of periodontal supporting structures already destructed by periodontal disease. There have been many efforts to develop materials and therapeutic methods to promote periodontal wound healing. With the development of non-resorbable membrane, GTR has proved to be the representive technique of periodontal regeneration. However, due to various clinical problems of non-resorbable membrane, resorbable membrane was developed and it showed to be clinically effective. The newly developed Para-Dioxanone membrane has a characteristic of non-woven fabric structures which is different from the generally used membranes with structure of mesh form. In addition, Chitosan membrane has been developed to apply its adventage maximally in GTR. Although a number of different types of membranes had been clinically used, researches on absorption rate of membranes were inadequate and limited to subjective opinions. However, since long term period of resorption and space maintenance are required in implant or ridge augmentation, accurate verification of resorption rate is clinically important. In this study, we had implanted Resolut(R), Biomesh(R), Para-Dioxanone membrane and Chitosan membrane (Size : 4mm ${\times}$ 4mm) on dorsal side of Sprague Dawley rat, and sacrified them after 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks respectively. Histologic observation was carried out, and the following results were obtained by calculating the objective resorption rate. 1. In case of Resolut(R), external resorption took place initially, followed by internal resorption. Surface area are 5.76${\pm}$2.37$mm^2$, 4.90${\pm}$l.06$mm^2$, 4.90${\pm}$0.98$mm^2$ at 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks respectively, and invasion rate of connective tissue to membrane are 31.6${\pm}$4.5%, 52.8${\pm}$9.4%, 56.4${\pm}$5.1% respectively. 2. Biomesh(R) showed a pattern of folding, relatively slow resorption rate with small size of membrane. Surface area are 3.62${\pm}$0.82$mm^2$, 3.63${\pm}$0.76$mm^2$, 4.07${\pm}$1.14$mm^2$ at 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks respectively, and invasion rate of connective tissue to membrane are 26.1${\pm}$5.8%, 30.9${\pm}$3.4%, 29.2${\pm}$3.6%, respectively. 3. Para-Dioxanone membrane was surrounded by fibrous conncetive tissue externally, and resorption took place internally and externally. Surface area are 5.96${\pm}$1.05$mm^2$, 4.77${\pm}$10.76$mm^2$, 3.86${\pm}$0.84$mm^2$ at 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks respectively, and invasion rate of connective tissue to membrane are 30.7${\pm}$5.1%, 53.3${\pm}$4.4%, 69.5${\pm}$3.1%, respectively. 4. Each fiber of Chitosan membrane was surrounded by connective tissue and showed external resorption pattern. It showed little invasion of inflammatory cells and excellent biocompatability. The resorption rate was relatively slow. Surface area are 6.01${\pm}$2.01$mm^2$, 5.49${\pm}$1.3$mm^2$, 5.06${\pm}$1.38$mm^2$ at 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks respectively, and invasion rate of connective tissue to membrane are 31.3${\pm}$3.6%, 38.4${\pm}$3.80%, 39.7${\pm}$5.6%, respectively. Consequently, Para-Dioxanone membrane and Chitosan membrane are found to be clinically effective for their excellent tissue reaction and biocompatibility. Futhermore, the advantage of bone regenerating ability as well as the relatively long resorption period of Chitosan membrane, it might be widely used in implant or ridge augmentation.
