  • 목 적: 간에 발생한 절제 불가능한 원발성 및 전이성 종양에서 토모테라피를 이용한 정위적 방사선치료를 시행하기 위해 사용된 복부압박장치의 유용성을 평가하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2011년 11월부터 2012년 3월까지 토모테라피(Hi-Art Tomotherapy, USA)를 시행받기 위해 본원에 내원한 간암환자 중 복부압박장치(diaphragm control, elekta, sweden)를 사용하였을 때 움직임이 1 cm 이상 줄어든 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 4D CT (somatom sensation, siemens, germany)를 통해 치료계획영상과 4차원 단층촬영영상을 촬영하고, 육안적으로 보이는 종양과 종양의 움직임을 고려하여 육안적 종양체적(gross tumor volume, GTV)으로 설정하였고, GTV 주변으로 균일하게 5~7 mm의 여유를 주어 치료계획용 종양체적(planning target volume, PTV)으로 설정하였다. 손상위험장기(organs at risk) 중 십이지장, 위, 대장의 거리가 종양으로부터 최소 1 cm 이상인 환자들을 1군($d{\geq}1$)으로, 1 cm 미만인 환자들을 2군(d<1)으로 분류하고 각각 4~5회의 정위적 방사선치료와 20회의 방사선치료를 계획하였다. Mega-voltage computed tomograpy (MVCT)와 kilo-voltage computed tomograpy (KVCT)를 일차적으로 골격구조셋팅(bone-technique)으로 융합(fusion)한 뒤, 이차적으로 간을 보며 영상을 재조정 하였다. 치료 후 얻은 MVCT 영상을 영상변형이 가능한 Mim_vista (Mimsoftware, ver. 5.4 USA)로 보내고, 간을 비교하여 다시 묘사(delineate)하고, 손상위험장기 중 십이지장, 위, 소장, 대장을 합쳐서 대장장기(bowel_organ)로 정의하여 다시 묘사하였다. 보정방사선 치료계획시스템을 통하여 보정영상의 치료계획 선량과 보정된 선량의 차이를 평가하였다. 첫 번째, 치료 시작일부터 각각 1군($d{\geq}1$)은 4회, 2군(d<1)은 10회까지의 MVCT와 KVCT간의 영상 융합을 통한 셋업오차를 분석하였다. 두 번째, 보정영상에서 종양 즉, GTV, PTV의 치료계획선량과 보정선량의 3%의 선량차이를 나타내는 체적($V_{diff3%}$)과 5%의 선량차이를 나타내는 체적($V_{diff3%}$)을 비교하였고, 손상위험장기 중 대장장기의 최대선량의 차이율을 비교하였다. 결 과: MVCT를 통해 분석한 평균 셋업오차는 $-0.66{\pm}1.53$ mm (좌-우), $0.39{\pm}4.17$ mm (상-하), $0.71{\pm}1.74$ mm (전-후), $-0.18{\pm}0.30$ degrees (roll)였다. 1군($d{\geq}1$)과 2군(d<1)의 셋업오차는 유사하였다. 1군($d{\geq}1$)에서 보정방사선 치료계획을 통한 $V_{diff3%}$ 중 GTV는 $0.78{\pm}0.05%$, PTV는 $9.97{\pm}3.62%$, $V_{diff5%}$ 중 GTV는 0.0%, PTV는 $2.9{\pm}0.95%$, 대장장기의 최대선량의 차이율은 $-6.85{\pm}1.11%$였다. 2군(d<1)에서 $V_{diff3%}$ 중 GTV는 $1.62{\pm}0.55%$, PTV는 $8.61{\pm}2.01%$, $V_{diff5%}$ 중 GTV는 0.0%, PTV는 $5.33{\pm}2.32%$, 대장장기의 최대선량의 차이율은 $28.33{\pm}24.41%$였다. 결 론: 복부압박장치를 통한 간암의 방사선치료시 MVCT를 통한 환자 셋업오차는 평균 ${\pm}5$ mm 이하였고, 복부 압박장치를 사용하고 투시영상을 통해 확인한 횡경막의 움직임이 최소 5 mm 이상이라는 것을 감안하면, 환자 셋업오차는 그 안에 있음을 알 수 있었다. 1군($d{\geq}1$)과 2군(d<1)에서 GTV, PTV의 선량차이율은 오차범위 안에 있었고, 1군($d{\geq}1$)과 2군(d<1)의 대장장기 최대선량의 차이율은 최대 35% 이상의 차이를 보였고, 1군($d{\geq}1$)이 2군(d<1)보다 오차범위가 작았다. 따라서 간내 종양과 손상위험장기의 거리가 최소 1 cm 이상 유지된다면 정위적 방사선치료를 진행함에 복부압박장치가 도움이 될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

  • 본 연구는 일부 지역 치위생과 학생을 대상으로 IBS와 수면의 질의 관련성을 파악하기 위하여 수행하였다. 연구대상은 전북지역 4개 대학 치위생과 344명을 대상으로 구조화된 설문지를 이용하여 2013년 5월부터 9월까지 수행하였으며 결과는 다음과 같다. 대상자의 IBS의 배변양상유형은 혼합형이 57.6%로 가장 많았고, 변비형 10.5%, 미분류형 7.1%, 설사형 6.1%로 나타났다. 대상자의 일반적 특성에 따른 수면의 질은 3학년 11.45점, 2학년 10.90점, 1학년 9.53점으로 학년이 높을수록 수면의 질이 통계적으로 유의하게 낮았으며, IBS일 경우에서도 수면의 질이 낮아 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 나타냈다. IBS 유무에 따른 수면의 질 차이는 습관적 수면효율성, 수면제 복용, 낮 시간 기능장애가 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 나타내 대조군에 비해 수면의 질이 낮았다. IBS 배변양상유형에 따른 수면의 질 차이는 수면방해에서 혼합형이 6.86점으로 가장 높았고, 습관적 수면효율성은 변비형이 1.00점, 주관적 수면의 질은 변비형이 1.42점, 수면제 복용은 미분류형이 0.15점으로 가장 높았으나 통계적으로 유의하지는 않았지만, 낮 시간 기능장애에서는 변비형이 2.61점으로 가장 높아 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(p=0.012). 수면의 질 하위요인간의 상관관계는 양의 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 연구결과를 바탕으로 IBS의 경우와 학년이 높을수록 수면의 질이 낮다는 것을 알 수 있었고, IBS의 경우 낮은 수면의 질로 인하여 낮 시간 동안의 기능장애가 있는 것으로 나타나, 과민성장증후군의 증상에 대해 교육하고 증상을 완화시킬 수 있는 적절한 스트레스 관리법과 올바른 식습관에 관한 교육 및 예방프로그램 개발을 통해 수면의 질을 높일 수 있도록 해야 할 것이다.

  • The authors report a case of Currarino triad which had a congenital anorectal stenosis associated with a sacral defect and a presacral mass. A 1-year-old female presented with constipation since birth. Neurological deficits were not found on admission. She had had a diverting colostomy due to anorectal stenosis at another hospital before admission. Lumbar X-ray films showed bony defect caudal to the third sacral vertebra. Magnetic resonance image demonstrated a round cystic pelvic mass which was connected with a dural sac via anterior sacral defect. Posterior approach with Intradural removal of the presacral cystic mass was performed and followed by anoplasty by a pediatric surgeon. The cystic mass was verified histologically as mature teratoma with cystic change. Postoperatively, the urinary function and bowel movement remained intact. Currarino triad should be suspected and evaluated physically and radiographically in a case of congenital anorectal stenosis. Prompt recognition and close cooperation between pediatric surgeons and neurosurgeons is advisable to ensure adequate surgical treatment.

  • In patients having long-standing ulcerative colitis (UC), the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) increased compared with general population. Dysplasia is a precancerous lesion of colitic patients, and traditionally total proctocolectomy was considered as a standard therapy to prevent colorectal cancer in UC patients. However, even with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA), patients who underwent total proctocolectomy may experience early and late postoperative complications, such as ileus, bleeding, pouchitis, and so on. In addition, the bowel movement after proctocolectomy with IPAA reaches a median of seven times per day, and a considerable proportion of patients require daytime and nighttime pads. Change in the strategy for managing dysplasia started from two early studies, which suggested polypectomy for polypoid dysplasia to prevent CRC in colitic patients. After that, many studies supported that polypectomy should be the first option for the management of polypoid dysplasia. Moreover, recent studies suggested the feasibility of endoscopic submucosal dissection as a therapeutic option for non-polypoid dysplasia, although long term, large studies should be followed.

  • Purpose: Rome criteria are considered the gold standard for diagnosing functional constipation. The modified Bristol stool form scale (m-BSFS) was validated to measure stool form in children. However, neither the potential use of the m-BSFS as a tool to facilitate the diagnosis of potential constipation, nor the agreement between m-BSFS and stool consistency by Rome has been studied. Our objective is to determine if m-BSFS is a reliable tool to facilitate detection of constipation; and the agreement between stool form by m-BSFS and hard stool criteria in Rome. Methods: A survey tool with the Rome III criteria and the m-BSFS was developed. A Likert-scale addressed frequency of each stool form on the m-BSFS. Responses to Rome III and m-BSFS were compared. Results: The sensitivity and specificity of the m-BSFS was 79.2% and 66.0% respectively; and in children <4 years. improved to 81.2% and 75.0% respectively. There was poor agreement between hard stools by m-BSFS and the painful or hard bowel movement question of Rome Criteria. Conclusion: The potential utility of m-BSFS as a reasonably good tool to facilitate the diagnosis of potential constipation in children is shown. The poor agreement between painful or hard stool question in Rome III, and ratings for hard stool on the m-BSFS illustrates that one's perception may differ between a question and a picture. A useful pictorial tool to appraise stool form may, thus, be a favorable complement in the process of enquiry about bowel habits in well-child care.

  • 직장암의 방사선치료는 정지된 영상을 이용하였다. 하지만 방사선치료 시 환자의 움직임이 발생된다. 이에 직장암 환자 14명을 대상으로 치료시간과 체형에 따른 기법별 자세오차를 비교하고자 하였다. 또한 평균오차에 대한 기법별 선량학적 변화량을 비교하였다. 비교를 통해 치료기법 선택의 기준을 마련하고자 하였다. 측정결과 3DCRT와 VMAT은 치료시간 및 자세오차가 비슷하였다. 이에 비해 IMRT는 치료시간이 약 2배, 자세오차는 약 4배 증가하였다. 체형에서는 비만형일수록 모든 치료기법에서 자세오차가 증가하였다. 선량평가에서는 소장측면에서는 동일한 오차에 대해 IMRT와 VMAT이 3DCRT에 비해 큰 폭의 선량증가를 보였다. 따라서 비만형인 직장암 환자의 경우 치료시간이 짧은 3DCRT를 적용하여야 한다. 소장의 피폭이 많을 경우에는 IMRT보다는 VMAT을 선택하여야 한다.

  • Based on King's goal attainment theory, this research deals with applying nursing intervention of mutual goal settings to gastrectomy patients. It tests the effects of nursing intervention, according to the patients' health locus of control, suggested as external boundary criteria for the theory by employing a quasi-experimental design which consists of a pretest-posttest non-equivalent control and experimental groups. The subjects of this research were 62 gastrectomy patients hospitalized at Y medical center and the experimental and control groups consisted of 31 subjects. The experimental group received nursing intervention at the mutual goal setting of 5 times from the day before the surgery to the 5th day after the surgery, while the control group received only routine nursing care. Recovery indicators of both groups were measured and compared. Measurement variables included patients' characteristics, health locus of control, forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume in one second, peak expiratory flow, bowel movement recovery, mobility recovery, level of pain, patients' stress and patients' satisfaction. Data were analyzed using SPSS statistical package and the hypotheses were tested by ANOVA and ANCOVA. Results of the analyses are summarized as follows : 1) Internal health locus of control had higher effects of the nursing intervention of mutual goal setting than external health locus of control on pulmonary ventilatory functions of forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume in one second, and peak expiratory flow. 2) There was no statistically significant difference in the effects of nursing intervention of mutual goal setting on the bowel movement recovery between the internal and external health locus of control. 3) There was no statistically significant difference in the effects of nursing intervention of mutual goal setting on the mobility recovery between the internal and external health locus of control. 4) There was no statistically significant difference in the effects of nursing intervention of mutual goal setting on the level of pain between the internal and external health locus of control. 5) There was no statistically significant difference in the effects of nursing intervention of mutual goal setting on the level of stress between the internal and external health locus of control. 6) There was a statistically significant difference in the effects of nursing intervention of mutual goal setting on the level of satisfaction with provision of nursing information between the internal and external health locus of control, and there was no statistically significant difference in the effects of nursing intervention of mutual goal setting on the level of satisfaction with outcome of nursing between the internal and external locus of control. On the basis of the research results, the following are recommended : 1) Repeated research on responses to health locus of control is necessary. 2) Not only the effectiveness of nursing intervention in acute recovery periods, but also the long term effects are to be investigated. 3) The development of instruments is needed to accurately measure mutual goal setting regarding postoperative deep breath, coughing, early ambulation, etc. so that the relationship among the postoperative recovery indicators may be explored. 4) It is required that an instrument be developed to measure perception which facilitates goal attainment in the interactive setting between patients and nurses.

  • Objectives: The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of a Dachaihu decoction for hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis (HLAP) by systematic review and meta-analysis of Chinese clinical studies. Methods: China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) was utilized as the major search engine. The date of the literature search was March 7, 2020. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about using a Dachaihu decoction for HLAP were included in this study. Meta-analysis was performed by synthesizing outcome data, including total effective rate, abdomen pain relief time, first bowel movement time, blood amylase recovery time, and triglyceride (TG) levels (mmol/L). The selected literature was assessed using Cochrane's risk of bias (RoB). Results: Twelve of 44 RCTs met the inclusion criteria. Most studies were evaluated with RoB as having unclear risk. The total effective rate of herbal medicine treatment based on the Dachaihu decoction was significantly higher than that of symptomatic supportive treatment in 10 articles (risk ratio=1.15, 95% CI: 1.08 to 1.21, p<0.00001, I2=0%). Herbal medicine treatment based on a Dachaihu decoction was significantly more effective than symptomatic supportive treatment in terms of reducing abdomen pain relief time (in all articles; mean difference=-1.70, 95% CI: -1.91 to -1.41, p<0.00001, I2=45%), first bowel movement time (in 7 articles; mean difference=-1.46, 95% CI: -1.86 to -1.05, p<0.00001, I2=73%), blood amylase recovery time (in 8 articles; mean difference=-1.48, 95% CI: -2.04 to -0.92, p<0.00001, I2=90%), and TG levels (in 8 articles; mean difference=-1.59, 95% CI: -2.28to -0.91, p<0.00001, I2=90%). Only one article reported side effects of treatment among the intervention group and control group, citing pancreatic ulcer and pancreatic pseudocyst formation. Conclusions: This study suggests that herbal medicine treatment based on a Dachaihu decoction could yield higher efficacy for HLAP than symptomatic supportive treatment alone. However, the results might be somewhat biased because of the poor quality and small sample size of the included RCTs. Well-qualified clinical studies are needed to prove the effectiveness of Dachaihu decoction therapy for HLAP.
