  • Objective:This study introduced the status of studies and the projects related with agricultural accident prevention carried out by the Rural Development Administration. This study was conducted to promote Korean farmers' agricultural safety activation by analyzing study trends on farmers' agricultural work safety. Background: Agriculture is one of the dangerous industries, and the agricultural accident rate is on the rise, due to recent serious aging and increased female work force. Such a phenomenon emerges as a serious problem from the social perspective, and therefore measures for farmers' healthy and safe agricultural activities and accident prevention are required. Method: This study conducted literature review related with domestic and international agricultural safety and health. This study also examined the hazard factors of agricultural labor and injuries, agricultural safety and health system and policy, support and education for farmers' safety practice, and the status of convenience tools and protection equipment, based on major study activities performed by the Rural Development Administration for recent four to five years. Results: Through the study results, the status of Korea's agricultural safety system, compensation support policy, safety education of farmers for actual practice, and diverse channels including media were confirmed. This study also presented the R&D implementation status on convenience equipment and protective gear to prevent agricultural diseases and safety accidents. Conclusion: This study found out that continuous monitoring and efforts are required to prevent accidents for the Korea's agricultural labor environment and agricultural safety, and that social bond of sympathy formation is demanded through effect analysis on the implemented projects including education and support projects. Furthermore, it can be understood that agricultural accident prevention should be carried out through shift from current government-led top down approach to bottom-up approach from itself. Application: The results of this study can be utilized as useful data for farmers' safety and health.

  • The purpose of this paper is to derive the features of cold damage clinical medicine during the early days of the Chosun(朝鮮) period by analyzing discussions on cold damage published in the official medical book of the Chosun period, Compendium of Prescription from the Countryside(鄕藥集成方, CPC). Cold damage was one of the typical diseases in East Asia where there was constant seeking of the utilization of prescriptions, ways of preparations, and awareness regarding cold damage as shown in Zhang, Zhongjing(張仲景)'s Treatise on Cold Damage Disease(傷寒論, TCDD) below. Traditional Korean medicine which possessed the medical universality of East Asia also was no exception and through an analysis of the part on cold damage in CPC, it is expected that medical features of cold damage in Korea passed down from the Koryo(高麗) Dynasty to the early Chosun period will be revealed. For this, first there needs to be an organization of past discussions on cold damage surrounding the existence of infection and after checking the issues, exploring which of the writings related to TCDD and editions are being utilized through an analysis on citing literature of Cold Damage Disease Literature(傷寒門) and Heat Pathogen Disease Literature(熱病門) which have developed discussions on cold damage in CPC. In addition, by comparing Peaceful Holy Benevolent Prescription(太平聖惠方, PHBP) and Complete Record of Sacred Benevolence(聖濟總錄, CRSB), known to have greatly influenced CPC and Cold Damage Literature and Heat Pathogen Disease Literature, features of form and content used by CPC were analyzed. Features of form were examined through pattern of organization and number of citing literature were examined and for features of content, cold damage infection, classification, syndrome differentiation method, and utilization of materia medica among prescriptions were examined. Discussions on cold damage as being uninfectious as stated in Treatise on the Pathogenesis and Manifestations of All Diseases(諸病源候論) unlike pestilence, epidemic pathogen(時氣), warm pathogen disease(溫病), and heat pathogen disease were excluded in PHBP. PHBP opened the possibility of cold damage infection and later writings, CRSB and CPC also follow this. As a result of analyzing citing literature of the part on cold damage in CPC, it is uncertain which edition of TCDD is being utilized; however, the most distinctive feature was that Classified Emergency Materia Medica(證類本草) and not writings specializing in cold damage are in use. In general, although CPC in terms of form is similar to CRSB, content creation predominantly depended on PHBP. More specifically; first, in terms of the existence of cold damage infection, arguments of PHBP and CRSB are maintained. Second, in terms of cold damage classification, although CRSB is followed, heat pathogen disease is classified separately developing PHBP as is. Third, in terms of method, as Book of Keep Healthy(南陽活人書) and CRSB compiled in later times are cited, it is deemed that arguments were raised to a certain extent regarding six-meridian syndrome differentiation(六經辨證). Fourth, although the majority of utilized materia medica among cold damage prescriptions utilize Materia Medica from the Countryside(鄕藥本草) in CPC and materia medica from Korean Peninsula, this is due to the desire for the compilation performance of CPC to be propagated to ordinary citizens and not the ruling class. CPC as the official medical book compiled in the early days of the Chosun period was greatly influenced by the Song(宋) Dynasty's medical books, PHBP and CRSB shows that cold damage medicine in the early Chosun Period indeed possesses the medical universality of East Asia. Furthermore, the features of published medical theory and prescriptions reveal the existence of the cold damage medical tradition of the Chosun period serving as clues for cold damage research tradition among Korea's medical history.

  • The nutritional status is important for the physical and mental development of children. Children should have sufficient nutrient intake, specially for the developmentally disabled children. In spite of the importance not much research has been done for their food habit and nutritional status. In this study, nutritional status of the disabled children were examined, the number of children studied is 50 children in Seoul between 5 to 6 years old, of whom 11 were austism, 5 were mentally retarded children and 8 were down\\`s syndrome. In order to get the data questionnaires about the food habit and other related factors, and two days food records were used. Their mean height was 108.8$\pm$21.0cm and their average weight was 19.5$\pm$4.6kg. The proportion of study subject with problems of the food habits was 36%, without keeping the regular meal time was 16%, and having snacks 2-4 time daily was 56%. They chose confectionery and fruits as their favorite snacks. The proportion of study subject with the sensitivity to the food colors and smells when they ate was 54%, unskilled using spoon and fork was 58%, and having medications was 20%. When we asked them whether their parents used the food as compensation means or not, 32% of them said that they did it often or sometimes. For the nutrient intake, energy was 1,703 $\pm$ 511kcal, carbohydrate was 242.5 $\pm$ 69.3g, protein was 61.3 $\pm$ 17.5g, lipid was 50.0 $\pm$ 24.4g. As the nutrient intake, it was compared with RDA. The intake of vitamin A and calcium were below RDA. Intake of protein was more than 150% of RDA. The proportion of subject with more than 125% of RDA was 72% for the phosphorus, 62% for the protein, 60% for the Vitamin A and calcium were below 0.75 and that of the others was above 0.75. The mean adequacy ratio(MAR) was 0.88. As we sum up the results of the research, the developmentally disabled children were shorter and lighter than the reference, were having medications, had excessive appetites, and had unbalanced diets. Also they had the bad food habit. As for the nutritional intake, vitamin A and calcium intake were a little less than RDA, and protein and phosphorus intake were too much. With the results of the above research for the disabled children, we can conclude that there are need to take some necessary measures for those children. To establish some programs measures for their better food environment, it is thought that much more research should be done in the future. (Korean J Nutrition 34(2) : 188-197, 2001)

  • For years, physicians and anatomists have been interested in the heart that has one functioning ventricle. Various terms have been suggested for this entity including single ventricle, common ventricle, double-inlet left ventricle, cor biatriatum triloculare, and primitive ventricle. In this report, the term "single ventricle" is utilized as suggested by Van Praagh, and is defined as that congenital cardiac anomaly in which a common or separate atrioventricular valves open into a ventricular chamber from which both great arterial trunks emerge. An outlet chamber, or infundibulum, may or may not be present and give rise to the origin of either of the great arteries. This definition excludes the entity of mitral and tricuspid atresia. An 11 year old cyanotic boy was admitted chief complaints of exertional dyspnea and frequent upper respiratory infection since 2 weeks after birth. He was diagnosed as inoperable cyanotic congenital heart disease, and remained without any corrective treatment up to his age of 11 year when he suffered from aggravation of symptoms and signs of congestive heart failure for 2 months before this admission. On 22nd of May 1979, he was admitted for total corrective operation under the impression of tricuspid atresia suggested by a pediatrician. Physical check revealed deep cyanosis with finger and toe clubbing, and grade V systolic ejection murmur with single second heart sound was audible at the left 3rd intercostal space. Development was moderate in height [135 cm] and weight[28Kg]. Routine lab findings were normal except increased hemoglobin [21.1gm%], hematocrit [64 %], and left axis deviation with left ventricular hypertrophy on EKG. Cardiac catheterization and angiography revealed 1-transposition of aorta, pulmonic valvular stenosis, double inlet of a single ventricle with d-loop, and normal atriovisceral relationship [Type III C solitus according to the classification of Van Praagh]. At operation, longitudinal incision at the outflow tract of right ventricle in between the right coronary artery and its branch [LAD from RCA] revealed high far anterior aortic valve which had fibrous continuity with mitral annulus, and pulmonic valve was stenotic up to 4 mm in diameter positioned posterolaterally to the aorta. Ventricular septum was totally defective, and one markedly hypertrophied moderator band originated from crista supraventricularis was connected down to the imaginary septum of the ventricular cavity as a pseudoseptum of the ventricle. Size of the defect was 3X3 cm2 in total. Patch closure of the defect with a Teflon felt of 3.5 x 4 cm2 was done with interrupted multiple sutures after cut off of the moderator band, which was resutured to the artificial septum after reconstruction of the ventricular septum. Pulmonic valvotomy was done from 4 mm to 11 mm in diameter thru another pulmonary arteriotomy incision, and right ventriculotomy wound was closed reconstructing the right ventricular outflow tract with pericardial autograft of 3 x 4 cm2. Atrial septal defect of 2 cm in diameter was closed with 3-0 Erdeck suture, and atrial wall was sutured also when rectal temperature reached from 24`C to 35.5`C. Complete A-V block was managed with temporary external pacemaker with a pacing rate of 110/min. thru myocardial wire, and arterial blood pressure of 80/50 mmHg was maintained with Isuprel or Dopamine dripping under the CVP of 25-cm saline. Consciousness was recovered one hour after the operation when his blood pressure reached 100 /70 mmHg, but vital signs were not stable, and bleeding from the pericardial drainage and complete anuria were persisted until his heart could not capture the pacemaker impulse, and patient died of low output syndrome 320 min after the operation.

  • 목 적: 소아에서 담석증은 성인에 비해 드문 질환이며, 여아에서 호발하고, 전형적인 증상은 드물 어서 나이가 어릴수록 무증상일 가능성이 높다. 원인으로 구상적혈구증, 복부 수술, 항생제(ceftriaxone), 감염 등에 의하여 유발되기도 하며, 유전 요인, 환경적 요인 등에 의해서도 영향을 받는 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나 현재 우리나라에서 소아의 담석증에 대한 연구 보고는 드물다. 이에 저자들은 연세의대 소아과에 내원하여 담석증으로 진단 받은 환아들을 대상으로 임상적 특성을 알아보고자 본 연구를 시행하였다. 방 법: 1999년 1월 1일부터 2005년 5월 31일까지 본 병원 소아과에 내원하여 담석증으로 진단 받은 15세 이하의 환아 총 18예를 대상으로 조사 분석하였다. 대상 환아는 복부 초음파 검사 또는 복부 CT 검사에서 담석증으로 확진된 경우만으로 하였고, 이러한 영상검사를 시행하지 않았거나 담낭잔사를 보인 환아는 대상에서 제외하였다. 결 과: 대상 환아는 남아 12예, 여아 6예로 남녀 비는 2:1이었고, 연령별 분포는 최소 4개월부터 최대 13년 3개월 된 환아까지 다양하였다. 전체 평균은 $6{\pm}4.3$세였고, 남아는 $6.1{\pm}3.9$세, 여아는 $5.8{\pm}5.6$세로 큰 차이는 없었다. 담석증에 의한 증상은 18예 중 3예(16.7%)에서 고열, 복통, 구토 등이 있었고, 나머지 15예(83.3%)에서는 증상이 없었다. 이러한 증상은 남녀간에 차이가 없었고, 연령이 많을수록 나타나는 경향을 보였다. 총 18예 중 15예(83.3%)에서 유발 요인이 있었는데, 항생제(ceftriaxone) 투여가 6예(33.3%), 감염이 4예(22.2%), 구상적혈구증이 3예(16.7%), Down 증후군과 복부 수술이 1예(5.6%)에서 각각 있었다. 담석의 크기는 17예 중 15예(88.2%)가 5 mm 이하의 담석으로 가장 많았고, 다음으로 5~10 mm가 2예(11.8%)였고, 10mm 이상은 없었다. 담석의 수는 단발(single)과 다발(multiple)이 각각 14예(77.8%), 4예(22.2%)로 단발성 담석이 많았다. 말초혈액도말 검사상 백혈구증다증, 고콜레스테롤 혈증, 고칼슘 혈증을 보인 환아는 없었으나, 2예에서 철결핍성 빈혈이 있었다. 혈청 AST 및 ALT는 7예(58.3%)에서 증가되었는데, 이 중 전염성 단핵구증에 감염된 환아는 2예로 이 중 1예는 혈청 빌리루빈치가 약간 상승되어 있었고, 마이코플라즈마에 감염된 1예는 급성 췌장염이 합병되어 혈청 amylase 및 lipase가 상승되어 있었으며, 1예는 캔디다 감염이 동반되어 있었다. 치료는 18예 중 17예(94.4%)에서 보존적 치료를 하였으며 주기적으로 복부 초음파를 시행하면서 추적 관찰하였다. 수술은 Meckel 게실이 동반되었던 1예에서 담낭 적출술을 시행하였다. 추적 관찰하였던 환아 17예 중 13예에서 복부 초음파상 담석이 소실되었고, 3예는 추적 관찰 중이며, 나머지 1예는 추적 관찰에서 탈락되었다. 탈락된 1예를 제외한 17예 모든 환아에서 재발이나 합병증은 없었다. 결 론: 본 연구 결과 소아 담석증은 남아에서 호발하고, 어릴수록 무증상이 많다. 유발요인이 있는 환아가 많았고, 크기가 작은 단일석이 대부분이었다. 치료는 대부분 보존적 치료를 하였다. 최근 영상진단의학이 발달함에 따라 소아에서도 담석증의 발견율이 높아지고 있다. 그러나 우리나라에서 소아 담석증에 대한 연구보고는 드물다. 따라서 소아 담석증 환아에서 성인과 다른 특성과 또한 유발 요인 등을 비롯한 외국 환아와의 임상적 차이점 등을 알아보기 위하여 이에 대한 연구가 더 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

  • 연구배경 : 제21번 염색체가 3개(trisomy)인 다운 증후군(Down syndrome) 에서는 폐암을 포함한 고형종양의 빈도가 일반인에 비해 유의하게 낮다. 이와 같이 디운증후군에서 폐암 위험도가 낮은 것은 여분의 21번 염색체가 존재함에 따른 유전자-용량 효과(gene-dosage effect) 때문일 가능성이 있으며 이는 폐암의 발생과정에 관여하는 종양억제유전자가 21번 염색체에 있음을 의미한다. 저자들은 21번 염색체의 종양억제 유전자 발굴을 위한 선행연구로 21번 염색체 장암의 LOH 빈도와 LOH 유 무에 따른 임상상을 비교하였다. 방 법 : 근치적 절제술을 받은 비소세포폐암 39예를 대상으로 하였다. 동결된 폐암조직과 환자의 림프구에서 DNA를 추출한 후 21q의 5개의 현미부수체 표지자를 이용하여 PCR을 시행하고 6% polyacrylamide-8M urea gel에서 전기영동 한 후 silver 염색을 하였다. LOH는 암조직의 대립유전자 signal이 림프구의 50%이하로 감소된 경우로 판정하였으며 종양의 fractional allelic loss(FAL)는 informative 표지자 수에 대한 LOH가 발견된 표지자 수의 비로 계산하였다. 결 과 : 대상환자 39예 가운데 21예(53.8%)에서 한 개 이상의 표시자에서 LOH가 관찰되었다. LOH는 편평상피세포암의 경우 23예 가운데 15예(65.2%)에서, 선암의 경우는 16예 가운데 6예(37.5%)에서 관찰되어 편평상피세포암에서 LOH의 빈도가 높은 경향이 있었다. 편평상피세포암에서 LOH 빈도는 I 기 53.8%와 II-III기 80.0%로 진행된 병기에서 높은 경향이 있었으나 통계적 유의성은 없었다. 종양에서 대립 유전자 소실의 축적 정도를 반영하는 지표인 FAL치는 편평상피세포암의 경우 0.431(${\pm}0.375$)로 선암의 0.192(${\pm}0.276$)에 비해 통계적으로 유의하게 높았다. 편평상피세포암에서 FAL치는 I 기 0.391(${\pm}0.427$)인데 비해 II-III기는 0.484(${\pm}0.310$)로 통계적 유의성은 없었으나 진행된 병기에서 높은 경향을 보였다. 결 론 : 비소세포폐암에서 21q의 LOH가 흔히 관찰되었으며 이러한 결과는 비소세포폐암의 발암과정에 관여하는 종양억제유전자가 21q에 존재할 가능성을 강력히 시사한다. 21q에 존재하는 LOH의 역할을 규명하기 위해서는 향후 보다 많은 예를 대상으로 한 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

  • 질병과 밀접한 관계가 있는 hCGL 단백질의 경우 대량 배양 시 유도체를 사용하지 않아도 발현이 되는 점과 유전자 측면에서 조작이 쉬운 E.coli를 이용하여도 발현이 된다는 점에 있어서 중요한 이점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 배양되는 온도와 발현에 관련 있는 유도체의 농도, 600 nm에서의 균 성장 정도에 따른 유도체의 첨가 그리고 배지의 양을 조절하면서 유입되는 aeration의 조건으로 hCGL 단백질 발현의 최적의 조건 확립을 목적으로 하였다. 또 각 발생되는 inclusion body의 양을 측정하면서 보다 많은 가용성 단백질을 발현시키는 조건을 확립하고자 하였다. hCGL 단백질은 저온에서 보다 많은 양의 단백질이 발현되며 inhibitor의 억제를 담당하는 유도체의 농도와는 상관없이 발현이 되었다. 또한 균의 성장 정도에 따라 유도체의 첨가시기를 달리 하였을 때, 발현 비율에 차이는 있었으나 전체적인 단백질 양과 비교해 보면, 이는 hCGL 발현에 큰 영향을 미치지 않는다. 배지의 양을 달리하여 살펴본 aeration에 따른 hCGL 발현 정도는 배지의 부피가 15%일 때 높은 aeration으로 균의 양은 많았으나 목적 단백질인 hCGL의 발현은 aeration이 되지 않는 조건에서 더 잘되는 것을 확인하였다. 그리고 His-TEV-hCGL의 활성은 야생형 hCGL의 활성을 기준으로 하였을 때, L-cystathionine을 기질로 하였을 경우 76%, L-cysteine을 기질로 하였을 경우 88% 수준으로 유사한 활성을 나타내었고, 이는 손쉽게 정제 가능한 His-TEV-hCGL을 야생형을 대신하여 사용할 수 있음을 시사한다. 또한 His-TEV-hCGL이 야생형 hCGL과 같이, 427 nm에서 흡광을 가지는 것으로 보아 보효소PLP를 포함하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 이로써 homocysteine 대사연구에 필수적인 hCGL 효소를 다량 얻는 방법을 확립하고, 관련 연구에 기여하리라 사료된다.
