Most patients with heart failure (HF) have multiple comorbidities, which impact their quality of life, aggravate HF, and increase mortality. Cardiovascular comorbidities include systemic and pulmonary hypertension, ischemic and valvular heart diseases, and atrial fibrillation. Non-cardiovascular comorbidities include diabetes mellitus (DM), chronic kidney and pulmonary diseases, iron deficiency and anemia, and sleep apnea. In patients with HF with hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy, renin-angiotensin system inhibitors combined with calcium channel blockers and/or diuretics is an effective treatment regimen. Measurement of pulmonary vascular resistance via right heart catheterization is recommended for patients with HF considered suitable for implantation of mechanical circulatory support devices or as heart transplantation candidates. Coronary angiography remains the gold standard for the diagnosis and reperfusion in patients with HF and angina pectoris refractory to antianginal medications. In patients with HF and atrial fibrillation, longterm anticoagulants are recommended according to the CHA₂DS₂-VASc scores. Valvular heart diseases should be treated medically and/or surgically. In patients with HF and DM, metformin is relatively safer; thiazolidinediones cause fluid retention and should be avoided in patients with HF and dyspnea. In renal insufficiency, both volume status and cardiac performance are important for therapy guidance. In patients with HF and pulmonary disease, beta-blockers are underused, which may be related to increased mortality. In patients with HF and anemia, iron supplementation can help improve symptoms. In obstructive sleep apnea, continuous positive airway pressure therapy helps avoid severe nocturnal hypoxia. Appropriate management of comorbidities is important for improving clinical outcomes in patients with HF.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was identified about oral health status and oral health needs of elderly. Moreover this study would be based further research of development of oral health in elderly. Methods : This study was undertaken to determine the oral health status and the need of oral management of over 65years elderly who were with dental prosthesis in elderly welfare center and Kyung Ro Dong in Kyung Bok and Kyung Nam. The results were as follows. Results : The sample was 200 participants. The demographical characteristic were that 74.0% of participant was female, 29.0% of participant was 75~79 years old, 42.5% of participant was under elementary, and 45.5% of participant was living alone. 43.7% of participant was pain from muscle-skeletal disease, 37.1% of participant was cardiac-vascular disease, and 31.1% of participant was ophthalmic disease. In oral health status, 54.5% of participant was partly artificial tooth and 45% of participant was whole artificial tooth. 78.0% of participant used under 10 years with partly artificial tooth and only 27.4% were satisfaction with artificial tooth. 83.5% of participant used under 10 years with whole artificial tooth and only 26.4% were satisfaction with artificial tooth. In the oral health status of partly artificial tooth, the average of toothbrush was 2 times, 42.2%. The majority method of toothbrush was 'their own freely' 55.0%. The time of toothbrush was 'after meal' 81.8%. The study result showed that majority participant didn't experience of tongue brush, regular examination, scaling, and oral health education. In the need of oral management with the whole artificial tooth, the participant who used longer artificial tooth was significantly higher about artificial irrigation and the method of management(p<.05). The need of participant who answered 'don't gum massage', was higher of xerostomia treatment(p<.01) and halitosis treatment(p<.05). In the need of oral management with the partly artificial tooth, the participant who used longer artificial tooth was significantly higher about regular examination(p<.01), oral cavity massage(p<.05), scaling(p<.05), dental caries treatment(p<.01). The need of participant who answered 'don't satisfaction with artificial tooth' was higher of regular examination and scaling(p<.05). Conclusions : Oral management needs of elderly who kept artificial tooth or denture required were regular dental examination, xerostomia management, management of artificial tooth and irrigation, and management of bad breath. This results meaned the oral health intervention program for elderly was developed regularly.

연구배경 : 급성 폐동맥색전증에서의 심폐기능 장애는 폐혈관계의 물리적 폐쇄와 신경체액성 반응에 의한 이차적인 기관지 및 혈관의 수축에 의하며, 혈소판에서 유리되는 serotonin이 체액성반응의 주 매개체인 것으로 알려져 있다. Positive End Expiratory Pressure(이하 PEEP 이라 칭함) 호흡요법은 성인성 호흡곤란증후군에서는 그 효과가 입증되어 널리 이용되고 있으나 폐동맥색전증에서의 역할은 아직 알려진 바 없다. 방법 : 연구자는 5-hydroxytryptamine 2 (이하 5-HT2라 칭함) 수용체의 선별 길항제인 ketanserin과 PEEP이 폐동맥색전증의 심폐기능 장애에 미치는 영향을 관찰하고 이들이 폐동맥색전증의 치료에 이용될 수 있을지를 검정해보기위해 한국산 잡견 13마리에 자가혈병을 이용하여 급성 폐동맥색전증을 일으킨후 대조군과 ketanserin 투여군, PEEP 적용군에서 환기 및 혈류역학의 제지표를 측정하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 결과: 1) 폐동맥색전증을 일으키는데 사용된 혈병은 체중 Kg당 0.30~0.89($0.63{\pm}0.16$)gm 이었고 세 군간에 유의한 차이가 없었으며 평균 폐동맥압은 11~18($14{\pm}2$)mmHg 에서 색전증 유발 직후 38~46($42{\pm}2$)mmHg 까지 상승하였다. 2) 혈병 투여 30분후의 변화 혈병 투여 30분후 평균 폐동맥압 및 폐혈관저항은 증가하였고 심박출량은 감소하였으며, 동맥혈 산소분압과 산소운반량 및 혼합정맥혈 산소분압은 감소하였고 생리적 단락과 동맥혈 이산화탄소분압은 증가하였으며(p<0.05) 세 군간에 유의한 차이는 없었다. 대조군은 이후 실험기간중 상기 지표에 유의한 변화가 없었다. 3) Ketanserin 투여후의 변화 Ketanserin 투여후 대조군에 비해 평균 폐동맥압과 폐혈관저항은 낮았으며 심박출량은 높았고 생리적단락은 낮았으며 동맥혈 산소분압과 산소운반량은 높았다(p<0.05). 동맥혈 이산화탄소분압은 ketanserin 투여 30분후 감소하였다(p<0.05). 평균 전신동맥압은 ketanserin 122mmHg 에서 101mmHg로 하강하였고 한시간 후에는 투여전 수준으로 상승하였으며 통계적 유의성은 없었다. 혼합정맥혈 산소분압은 대조군에 비해 높은 경향을 보였으며 통계적 유의성은 없었다. 4) PEEP 적용군에서의 변화 PEEP 적용후 동맥혈 산소분압과 폐혈관저항은 증가하였고 심박출량은 감소하였으며 생리적 단락은 감소한 반면 산소운반량은 감소하였다(p<0.05). 한편 동맥혈 이산화탄소분압은 증가하였다(p<0.05). PEEP 제거후 평균 폐동맥압과 폐혈관저항은 감소해 대조군에 비해 낮았으며, 산소운반량과 심박출량은 증가해 대조군에 비해 높았다(p<0.05). 생리적단락은 대조군에 비해 낮았고(p<0.05) 동맥혈 이산화탄소분압은 감소해 대조군과 유의한 차이는 없었다. 혼합정맥혈 산소분압은 대조군에 비해 높았다(p<0.05). 5) 혈병 투여 4시간후 혈소판은 감소하였고 백혈구는 증가하였다(p<0.05). 결론 : 이상의 결과로 5-HT2 수용체의 선별 길항제인 ketanserin은 폐동맥색전증의 치료에 유용할 것으로 생각된다. 한편 PEEP용 적용증에는 혈류역학적 제지표가 악화되었으나 제거후에는 오히려 대조군에 비해 유의하게 호전되었으므로, 폐동맥색전증의 초기에 혈류역학적 상태가 허용되면 조심스럽게 단기간 적용해볼 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

Purpose: Little is known about appropriate interval periods between the heparin flushing of implanted ports after completion of chemotherapy. The purpose of this study was to describe the current status of interval of heparin flushing for maintenance of an implanted port in solid tumor patients. Methods: We performed a retrospective review of all patients who had undergone implanted port removal in 2012 at the Seoul St. Mary's Hospital. The subjects were 90 patients who, after completion of chemotherapy, retained their ports for extended periods of time. Results: The mean number of flushes of heparin was 4. Compliance with visits for implanted port maintenance varied with the individual, and the mean accession times were in the range between 13 days and 243 days. The overall mean time between flushes was 66 days. One patient showed resistance during flushing. Conclusion: Our results demonstrate that extending the flushing interval to a maximum of 8 weeks remains medically safe. Less frequent heparin flushing of an implanted port decreases medical expenditure and the workload of medical professionals; it also improves the patient's satisfaction.

The study investigated medical treatment features of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, their further complications, levels of diet therapy education and the status of dietary compliance. The subjects were patients who came to oriental medicine clinics in Daejon. The percentage of male was 37.5% and female was 62.7% in the subject group's sex distribution. The outbreak of the disease was most common in the age of 50's. Also 40% of the subjects had been suffering for more than 5 years. 35.7% of men and 53.7% of women had family history. All the subjects had further complications, among them hypertension was the most common. Kidney, hepatic, vascular heart diseases were followed. 85.3% of the subjects answered they already had educations about diet therapy. Those educations were given in the public health center, general and private hospitals. 32% of subjects were not practicing diet therapy. The difficulties with which patients can be faced when they take dietary education were exchange(?exchanging?) food and calculating calories. Most of the subjects tend to overlook the importance of dietary habits and show low understanding to diet therapy, which leads to low participation rate of diabetes patients. Based on these results, therefore, we can conclude that diet therapy education to the patients should be more organized and easily practicable for them. To develop educational methods which can draw patients' attention and also be more effective is the most important task.

Axillo-bifemoral (Ax-Fem) bypass are now well accepted for bilateral iliac artery occlusion as the second best option. This extra-anatomical (unnatural) bypasses, however, have various hemodynamic liabilities affecting the patency. Hemodynamic conditions of each different type of Ax-Fem bypass were assessed with computer simulation model to determine the hemodynamically more sound type. Simulation models of five different types of Ax-Fem bypass were constructed. Our investigation based on the computer simulation models have shown distinct differences between two most popular Lazy-S type and Inverted-C type on the distribution of flow volume, shear stress and recirculation zone, etc., though both types have shown similar clinical results. Lazy-S type has shown better hemodyanmic status than inverted-C type. The theoretical advantage of "Lazy-S" type has never been adequately proved for its superiority clinically over the inverted-C type. Inverted-C type is now in more favor with clinically better results in spite of many hemodynamic liabilities including retrograde flow to the branching graft. The improvement of over-all long-term patency rate of various extra-anatomical bypasses is still warranted through proper correction of the hemodynamic liability. Even though clinical outcome of the extra-anatomical bypass has been equal regardless of the type of crossover femoral graft configuration, there are distinct differences on the hemodynamic characteristics among various types of configuration. Further hemodynamic study in the pulsatile flow status is warranted to correct hemodynamic defects with proper modification of various hemodynamic factors of each model.

Glutathione S-transferase polymorphisms (GST) were examined in 98 cases with cerebrovascular disease (CVD) to test the hypothesis that GST polymorphisms confer a risk to an individual to develop CVD. Tobacco smoke is a major cause of both cancer and vascular disease. We therefore were stratified the subjects with CVD for smoking status, and then examined whether polymorphisms in this detoxification enzyme gene, GST, influence risk of CVD. Neither GSTM1 nor GSTT1 genotypes in the CVD group was significantly different from the control group (n=230), even in smokers. We attempted the combined analyses for GSTM1 and GSTT1 genotypes in CVD for smoking status. No significant association observed between the combined genotypes and CVD. We also classified the subjects and control group into four types according to Sasang Constitutional Medicine, Korean Traditional Oriental Medicine, and investigated the association among GST genotypes, CVD, and Sasang constitutional classification. Our observations do not confirm the effect of the GSTM1 and GSTT1 genotypes as a risk factor for CVD, even in smokers. Furthermore, we first attempted to evaluate the efficacy of Sasang Constitutional Medicine, and to find an association with CVD.
