모바일 기기를 활용한 홀터 모니터링으로 환자의 개인별 심전도 신호의 장주기 수집이 가능해졌다. 하지만 이에 따른 의사 결정 지원 도구 및 응용에 대한 연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 장주기로 수집된 심전도 신호의 대표패턴을 추출하기 위한 축약 알고리즘을 제안한다. 그리고 추출된 대표패턴을 이용하여 유사한 환자의 목록을 제공하는 검색기를 소개한다. 사례분석을 통해 제안한 유사환자 검색기가 대표패턴을 통해 전문가의 임상활동을 간소화 하며, 유사한 환자의 목록을 제공하여 축적 데이터의 높은 활용 가능성을 제고함을 보였다. 또한, MIT-BIH 부정맥 데이터베이스를 이용한 평가에서, 축약 알고리즘이 64%의 레코드에 대해 단순화된 대표패턴을 제공하며, 부정맥 분류 결과를 평균 98% 축소함을 보였다.

Background: Diaphragmatic injuries following blunt or penetrating thoraco-abdominal trauma are rare, but can be life-threatening. Rib fractures are the most common associated injury in patients with a traumatic diaphragmatic injury (TDI). We hypothesized that the pattern of rib fracture injuries could dictate the likelihood of acute TDIs. Methods: A retrospective study was carried out between April 2014 and October 2018 to analyze patients with TDIs and rib fractures at a major trauma center in London, United Kingdom. Results: Over the study period, 1,560 patients had rib fractures, of whom 14 had associated diaphragmatic injuries. Left-sided diaphragmatic injuries were found in 8 patients (57%). A significant proportion of the rib fractures were located posterolaterally (44.9%). The highest frequency of fractures was found in ribs 5-10, which accounted for 74% of all the fractures. Ten patients underwent surgery, of whom 7 were diagnosed with a diaphragmatic injury intraoperatively after video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery assessment of the pleural cavity. Two patients died due to severe injuries of other organs and the remaining 2 patients were managed conservatively. Conclusion: Our series of patients demonstrates a relationship between significant rib fractures and diaphragmatic injuries in trauma patients, and the diagnostic difficulties in identifying the condition. We found that the location of the rib fractures and the pattern of injury in patients with TDIs were much lower and posterolateral in the chest wall without a preference for laterality. We suggest using a thoracoscope in patients undergoing chest wall surgery post-trauma to aid in diagnosing this condition.

Objective: The aim of this study was 1) to investigate the prevalence and pattern of dental anomalies (DAs), 2) to compare DAs according to the type of malocclusion, and 3) to investigate the correlation between tooth impaction and other DAs in the Korean orthodontic population. Methods: A total of 3,240 orthodontic patients were classified as Class I, Class II, or Class III malocclusion groups. The presence and location of common DAs, including impaction, microdontia, agenesis, supernumerary tooth, transposition, and fusion, were identified by examining diagnostic records. Furthermore, samples were classified as Group 1 without impaction or Group 2 with impaction. The prevalence of other DAs concurrent with impaction was investigated and compared to Group 1. Results: Impaction was the most prevalent DA, followed by microdontia, agenesis, and supernumerary. Class I and Class III groups showed the same order of prevalence, but agenesis was more frequent than microdontia in the Class II group. The prevalence of the four DAs was lowest in the Class III group. Overall, 8.6% of patients were classified into Group 2. The incidence of DAs other than impaction and the prevalence of multiple concurrent DAs were significantly higher in Group 2. Impaction showed a significant relationship with supernumerary tooth, transposition, and fusion. Conclusions: The prevalence and pattern of DAs varied depending on the type of malocclusion. As there was a higher risk of other DAs in patients with impacted teeth, early detection of the impacted tooth and a detailed diagnosis of other possible DAs may be essential.

Objectives : This study was conducted to reveal the relationship between multiple factors of traditional Korean Medicine diagnosis and consider the further probabilities of treating people with physical and mental problems not defined as diseases, which is called 'Mibyeong' in traditional Korean Medicine. Methods : 40 healthy participants were included in the observational clinical trial. The participants were asked to complete health questionnaires (e.g. State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Stress Response Inventory) and they went through a traditional diagnosis process, including four stages of diagnosis (looking, listening/smelling, inquiring, and pulse taking), by a Korean Medicine doctor. Both the Korean Medicine doctor and an artery tonometry device performed the pulse diagnosis. Results : Although all participants were healthy people with no history of disease, more than half of participants had a problem related with severe level of fatigue (n=19), sleep disturbance (n=26) and stress (n=27) status according to the related questionnaires. Participants diagnosed with phlegm syndrome by the Korean Medicine doctor showed significantly greater score in phlegm pattern questionnaires than participants who were not. However, there was little agreement between the doctor's pulse diagnosis and radial artery tonometry results. Conclusions : We conducted a pulse diagnosis and measured health-related information along with the traditional Korean Medicine diagnose procedure, including four stages of diagnosis, and we found a linkage between diagnosis of phlegm and the phlegm pattern questionnaire score. The results suggest that a number of healthy participants, with no disease diagnosed, have Mibyoung symptoms which need further clinical management. Thus, we suggest that Mibyoung management programs based on qualified diagnosis tools and traditional Korean medicine diagnosis procedures be developed, and that future research using various diagnostic tools be carried out on a large population.

Objectives: The formation of new bone by periosteum due to an insult is called periosteal bone reaction (PBR). This study assessed the cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) patterns of periosteal bone reactions associated with periapical inflammatory lesion (apical periodontitis/periapical rarefying osteitis). Materials and Methods: Twenty-two small field of view CBCT images of patients with PBR were selected from a database of a private practice limited to endodontics. The volume of the periapical inflammatory lesion, the presence of cortical fenestration, the distance of the root apices to the affected cortex, and the location, pattern, and longest diameter of the periosteal reaction were recorded. Statistical analysis was performed using Wilcoxon Ranksum, Fischer's exact, Spearman Correlation Coefficient, and paired t-test. Results: In all cases, periosteal bone reaction manifested as either parallel (90.9%) or irregular (9.1%). No correlation was found between periapical inflammatory lesion volume and the periosteal reaction's longest diameter (p > 0.05). Cortical fenestration was noted in 72.7% of the cases. In addition, the findings showed that periosteal reactions were located mostly on the buccal and were present 53.8% and 100% of the time in the mandible and maxilla, respectively. Conclusions: The periosteal reactions of endodontic origin had a nonaggressive form (i.e., parallel or irregular), and none of the lesions resulted in a periosteal reaction with an ominous Codman's triangle or spicule pattern.

연구목적 : 기관지폐포암은 다양한 임상적, 방사선적인 양상으로 나타나며 대표적인 방사선적인 양상으로 또는 종괴, 국소적 경화, 미만성 결절 또는 경화 등으로 나타난다. 고립성 결절 또는 국소적 경화 병변으로 나타난 기관지폐포암은 다발성 병변과는 달리 예후가 좋으므로 조기에 진단하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 그러나 고립성 결절로 나타나는 기관지폐포암은 비특이적 임상증상과 다양한 방사선 양상으로 폐렴, 폐결핵, 양성병변으로 오인되어 치료의 시기를 놓치는 경우가 있다. 이에 저자들은 고립성 폐결절로 나타난 기관지폐포암의 임상적, 방사선적 특성을 알아보기 위하여 다음과 같은 연구를 시행하였다. 방 법 : 1995년 1월부터 1996 년 8월까지 서울삼성병원에서 병리학적으로 기관지폐포암이 진단되고 방사선 소견에서 고립성 폐결절로 나타난 환자를 대상으로 임상적, 방사선적인 특성을 조사였다. 결 과 : 환자는 총 11명으로 남자는 6명, 여자 5명이었고 환자들의 연령은 37세에서 69세로 중앙 연령값은 60세이었다. 대부분의 환자는 증상이 없이 단순흉부촬영에서 우연히 이상소견이 발견되어 진단되었다. 단순흉부촬영상 대부분 경계가 불명확한 결절 또는 음영증가의 소견을 보였고 단순흉부촬영후 추측진단 양성병변이나 결핵성 폐병변으로 오인되었던 예가 6예였고 5예에서만 악성 결절로 추정되었다. 전산화단층촬영상 경화, 간유리 모양, 기관지 공기 조영, open bronchus sign, internal bubble-like lucencies, spiculated margin 또는 pleural tag등의 소견이 대부분의 환자에서 관찰되었다. FDG-PET 검사를 시행한 8예중 3예에서 악성을 의심하는 소견이 보였고 5예에서 위음성의 소견을 보였다. 병리학적인 진단은 경기관지폐생검과 경피적 폐생검을, 통해 진단된 예가 각각 1예, 2예이었고 8예에서는 비디오흉강경을 이용한 폐생검을 통해 이루어졌다. 환자는 모두 폐엽절제술을 시행받았고 수술후 병기는 $T_1N_0M_0$가 8예, $T_2N_0M_0$가 3예로 근치적 절제술이 가능하였다. 결 론 : 고립성 결절 양상의 기관지폐포암은 증상 없이 우연히 발견되는 경우가 대부분이며 단순흉부촬영상 주로 경계가 불명확한 결절 또는 음영증가의 소견으로 나타나 양성병변으로 오인되는 경우가 많았다. 만약, 이런 병변이 추적검사에서 계속 남아 있거나 커지는 경우는 흉부전산화단층촬영을 시행하여 경화, 간유리 모양, 기관지 공기조영, internal bubble-like lucencies, spiculated margin 또는 pleural tag등 소견을 보인다면 개흉술 등을 포함한 적극적인 진단적 접근이 필요하다고 생각된다.

Purpose : To acquire the useful diagnostic information through the analysis of the clinical and radiological characteristics of mandibular unicystic ameloblastoma. Materials and Methods : The researchers compared and analysed the clinical and radiological features of 79 cases of mandibular unicystic ameloblastoma confirmed by histopathlogic examination. Results : The results of our research showed that unicystic ameloblastomas occurred more frequently in males than in females and the incidence is the highest in the 2nd and 3rd decades. These lesions occurred most frequently in angle-ramus area, mandibular molar area, and anterior area in descending order respectively $68.4\%$, $24\%$, and $7.6\%$. These lesions had smooth ($54.4\%$) rather than undulating ($45.6\%$) borders. These lesions showed well- defined borders in $59.5\%$ among all the cases. Root resorption and loss of lamina dura were observed as $55.7\%$ and $58.5\%$ respectively. Displacement of mandibular canal was observed in $55.9\%$ among all the related cases. Internal pattern of lesional radiolucency was observed as even ($49.4\%$) or uneven ($50.6\%$). Conclusion : These results would be helpful in diagnosing of mandibular unicystic ameloblastoma.

We study on the significance and application of the whole body form diagnosis. The results were as follows; The general form diagnosis is the method to observe the individual physiology and pathology. The phase of thinking, the current and activity of KI, the pattern of general form diagnosis have organic relations with the symptoms. The general form diagnosis is made up the principle of the imaging phase, therefore it must make synthetic union the differentiation of syndromes. The general form diagnosis of NAE GYEONG shows the typical phases and it is divided with the sight of YIN YANG and Five-Element. The general form diagnosis of SEOP GAE is practiced the theory of constitution's demonstration before the understanding of symptoms. Then JANG NAM tried the type of constitution's demonstration. The general form diagnosis of DONG MU becomes the diagnostic root of constitution's demonstration in four type constitution theory.
