Viral Hemorrhagic Septicemia Virus (VHSV)는 유럽과 북미지역의 담수 무지개송어에 심각한 바이러스성 질병을 야기하는 원인체였으나 담수어류 뿐만 아니라 해산어류에서도 심각한 질병을 유발하며 최근 일본과 우리나라 양식 넙치에서 VHSV에 의한 대량 폐사 발생이 보고되고 있다. 본 연구는 VHS에 대한 예방학적 접근의 일환으로서 자연산 어류로부터의 VHSV 검출 및 지리적 분포, 보균 어종에 대한 유전학적인 조사를 목적으로 2003년과, 2005년도에 동중국해역 3지점, 서해안 5지점 그리고 남해안 5지점에서 어류를 채집하였다. RT-PCR을 이용한 연구결과 자연산 해산어류 160마리 중 12종 17마리에서 VHSV가 검출되어 검출율 10.6%를 보였으며 조사된 12종의 어류 중 특히 상어목에서 가장 높은 검출율을 보였다. VHSV G gene을 이용한 계통분류학적 분석결과 염기서열 분석에서 양식산어류의 분리주 (KVHS01-1)와 98.4%～99%, 아미노산 분석에서 97～99% 유사성을 나타내어 본 연구에서 조사되어진 자연산 어류에서 분리된 VHSV는 GenogroupⅠ에 속하였다.

목 적: Acinetobacter baumannii는 숙주 저항력이 저하된 고위험군에서 주요 원내 감염균으로 잘 알려져 있으나 A. baumannii 이외의 Acinetobacter species의 경우 드물게 감염과 연관된 것으로 받아들여지는 등 임상적 중요성과 원내 감염원으로써의 역학에 대해 알려진 바가 적다. 저자들은 신생아 집중치료실에서 A. baumannii가 아닌 것으로 확인된 Acinetobacter species에 의해 집단 발생한 패혈증 11례를 경험하였기에 이에 대한 임상적, 역학적 특징을 알고자 본 연구를 실시하였다. 방 법: 2004년 2월 4일부터 24일까지 일신기독병원 신생아 집중치료실에서 감염되었던 환아의 혈액에서 Acinetobacter species가 배양된 11례를 대상으로 임상적 특징을 조사하였고, 집단 발생의 역학을 조사하기 위해 두 차례에 걸쳐 의료진 및 환경 검체에 대한 배양을 실시하였으며, 항생제 감수성 검사를 통해 환아에서 배양된 균주가 동일 균주인지를 알고자 하였다. 결 과: 임상 양상은 발열, 수유 부진, 복부 팽만, 설사, 혈변, 구토, 빈호흡, 무호흡 등 다양하였으나 다른 원인에 의한 감염증과 비슷하였다. 집중 치료를 요하는 중증 경과를 보인 경우가 없었고 항생제 치료에 즉각적인 반응을 보이며 회복되어 A. baumannii 감염증에서 흔히 보이는 중증의 임상 증상과 높은 사망률(11-57%)과 비교하여 경한 경과를 보였다. 도관 관련 균혈증 2례, 도관 관련 균혈증 의증 9례로 말초 정맥 도관이 중요 유발 인자로 고려되었다. 감염의 역학을 알고자 두 차례에 걸쳐 의료진의 손과 환경 검체에 대한 배양 검사를 실시하였으나 동일 균주를 분리하는데는 실패하였다. 결 론: 우리의 연구를 통해 A. baumannii 이외의 Acinetobacter species의 경우 상대적으로 비병원성으로 여겨졌으나 임상 증상이 동반되면서 환자에서 배양되면 감염의 원인균임을 알 수 있었다.

Vibrio vulnificus is a halophilic bacterium frequently involved in human infection of seafood-associated primary septicemia and primary wound infection, mostly in men with over 40-years of age with underlying liver disease. The primary septicemia, which is the most common form of V. vulnificus infection in Korea, is defined as a systemic illness presenting fever or hypotension with recovery of V. vulnificus from blood or tissue without the apparent primary focus of infection. V. vulnificus typically do not produce acid from sucrose, but a case of primary septisemia was found in a patient at Chonnam K hospital in 1993 from whose blood a sucrose-fermenting strain was isolated. The patient was a 62-year-old man, heavy drinker, with underlying liver disease. He consumed a raw seafood dish two days before onset of the present illness. His symptoms were tenderness and swelling on the right foot. He rapidly developed septicemia, resulting in sudden death. V. vulnificus was isolated from the venous blood culture of the patient. On subculture, the isolate formed yellow colonies on TCBS and produced acid from sucrose. Because of these characteristics, species identification was not achieved by the API 20E and was delayed. Other characteristics of the isolate were identical to those of typical V. vulnificus. The isolate was common serotype O4A and possession of V. vulnificus-specific cytolysin gene was detected by PCR. The isolate was susceptible to all the antimicrobial agents tested including tetracycline, but was intermediate to colistin. In conclusion, it is important that microbiologists be aware of the presence of sucrose-positive V. vulnificus when he or she identifies gram-negative bacilli, which is isolated from the blood of patients with a recent history of raw seafood dish consumption.

국내외에서 80여 종이 넘는 담수 및 해산어류를 감염시켜 대량폐사를 발생시키는 바이러스성 출혈성 패혈증 바이러스(VHSV) 진단검사를 위해 넙치의 여러 조직의 바이러스 발현량에 대한 정량적 데이터를 시간순서에 따라 분석하였다. 무작위 선별된 넙치에 3.0E+07 TCID₅₀ per 0.1mL per fish의 VHSV를 복강 주사하여 시간순서(0시간, 6시간, 12시간, 1일, 2일, 3일, 5일, 7일)에 따라 조직(아가미, 간, 신장, 비장, 근육)을 채취하였다. Real-time PCR 법을 통해 상대 정량한 결과 5일차 아가미, 간, 신장, 비장에서 바이러스의 발현량이 가장 높게 나타났다. 이번 연구를 통해 감염 초기단계에서 비장이 VHSV 확정진단을 위한 적정조직임을 입증하였으며, 국내 법정전염병 진단에 중요한 정보를 제공할 것이다.

Septicemic polyserositis and navel ill associated with Escherichia coli were reported in a 14-day-old male thoroughbred foal. The horse died after showing 12-day history of anorexia, lethargy, lameness and endophthalmus. Grossly, milky yellow abscesses were occupied in umbilicus, umbilical vein and artery. Large amounts of turbid pale yellow fluids were seen in pericardial sac, thoracic and abdominal cavity. Yellowish fibrinous materials were also presented in thoracic and abdominal cavity. Sticky pale yellow fluid and fibrinous materials were filled in stifle joint cavities of both hind limbs. Histologically, fibrino-purulent polyserositis and arthritis were observed. Severe omphalophlebitis with intra-lesional Gram negative bacterial colonies were noted in umbilical vein. Most of mesothelial cells in serosal cavities were severely hypertrophied. Pathogenic E. coli was purely isolated from ascites, thoracic and synovial fluids. Based on the results, the septicemic polyserositis may be originated from the umbilical cord infected with E. coli in this foal.

Viral haemorrhagic septicaemia virus (VHSV) is an epidemic virus in olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus farms in Korea, since the virus have first isolated in 2001. In the present study, partial glycoprotein (G) gene nucleotide sequences of seven Korean VHSV from cultured olive flounder and wild marine fishes in coastal areas of Korea were analyzed to evaluate their genetic relatedness to worldwide isolates. Phylogenetically, all Korean VHSV formed only one minor cluster including Japanese isolates, in genotype IVa, while the North America isolates formed a different minor cluster in genotype IVa. These results suggest that Korean VHSV could be an indigenous virus in Korean and Japanese coastal areas, but have not been introduced from North America.

RT-PCR method was applied to detect and clone the nucleocapsid protein (N) gene and glycoprotein (G) gene for sequencing 5 Korean VHSV isolates from cultured olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus. Phylogenetic analysis was performed to investigate their relationship with the VHSV strains described previously and isolated from different geographical area. Generally, VHSV strains were separated phylogenetically according to the major geographical area of isolation: Genogroup I (American type), Genogroup Il (British Isles) and Genogroup ill (European type). This study revealed that all 5 Korean VHSV isolates were belonged to Genogroup I and closely related to Japanese Obama25 type.

Objectives: There are many unknowns surrounding Jeong-Jo's death. To better understand Jeong-Jo's death, we closely inspected his medical records from the 20 days before his death in The Annals of the Chosun Dynasty (朝鮮王朝實錄) and Seungjeongwon Ilgi (承政院日記), Understanding medical treatment before death, we can correctly trace the cause of Jeong-Jo's death. Methods: According to The Annals of the Chosun Dynasty (朝鮮王朝實錄) and Seungjeongwon Ilgi (承政院日記), we examined his medical records between June 14 and June 28 of 1800, as to the change in chief complaint, cold and heat, thirst, syndrome differentiation, the opinions of Jeong-Jo, and the opinions of doctors, The original work, The Annals of the Chosun Dynasty and Seungjeongwon Ilgi were provided by NIKH (The National Institute of Korean History). The Korean translation of The Annals of the Chosun Dynasty was also provided by NIKH. Seungjeongwon Ilgi (original work written in Chinese characters) was directly translated into Korean by the study author. Results: 1. Jeong-Jo's is likely to have died of septicemia caused by an abscess on his back. 2. The cause of Jeong-Jo's death could be stroke due to hypertension, mental stress, and 'Wha (火) disease' Conclusions: The dominant view that Jeong-Jo was murdered by poison is not likely.
