A study was conducted to investigate the effect of cooling hands of feet on human thermoregulation in the cold. Eight young (22$\pm$1 yr) and eight aged (69$\pm$4 yr) men volun-teered as subjects They stayed at 1$0^{\circ}C$ in the supine posture during the experiment which included hands or feet exposure to the air for 20 minutes. Hand Exposure (HE) and Foot Exposure (FE) were conducted in radomized order and the baseline was kept before HE and FE. Core temperatures, limb skin temperatures adn thermal sensations were measured. Obtained data were analyze using t-test and correlation. Rectal and esophageal tem-peratures increased in the young (YG) and in aged (AG). Change rate of esophageal temperature (Tes) was maintained higher during FE than HE while rectal temperature showed no differences between YG and AG, and between HE and FE. Hand and foot skintemperature in YG and AG decreased similarly during HE and Fe. Forearm skin temperature during HE decreased while leg skin temperature during FE showed no change HE and Fe. It was concluded that the lower cooling. Furthermore, the increase of Tes was greater in young men than aged men. It is also suggested that the wearing behavior can be differently modified between young and aged men.

Purpose: Blue toe syndrome consists of blue or purplish toes in the absence of a history of obvious trauma, serious cold exposure, or disorders producing generalized cyanosis. It is a life-threatening and still underrecognized disease. It can be commonly occurred by vascular surgery, invasive cutaneous procedures or anticoagulant therapy. Our case is presented of blue toe syndrome related to atheromatous embolization that was presumably triggered by angio CT. Methods: A 69-year-old man presented with the suddenly developed pain, cyanosis and livedo reticularis of the toes in right foot. Dorsalis pedis pulses were palpable. He had been performed a diagnostic angio CT 1 month earlier. Angio CT revealed diffuse aortic atheromatous plaque in lower abdominal aorta and both common iliac artery. One month after angio CT, he visited our clinic. There was no visible distal first dorsal metatarsal artery and digital artery of right first toe in lower extremity arteriography. A diagnosis was established of blue toe syndrome. Because his symptom was aggravated, we performed the exploration of the right foot. After exposure of first dorsal metatarsal artery, microsurgical atheroembolectomy was done. Results: There were no postoperative complications. After three months the patient had no clinically demonstrable problems. Conclusion: Patient with blue toe syndrome is at high risk of limb loss and mortality despite treatment. Blue toe syndrome produces painful, cyanosed toes with preserved pedal pulses. It needs to be aware of blue toe syndrome. Careful history should reveal the diagnosis. Treatment is controversial, however, most believe that anticoagulation therapy should be avoided.

인체골 4 시편(specimen)과 돼지 경골 25쌍을 이용하여, 생체골의 열전도성 측정과 열처리후 열처리온도와 시간에 따른 골의 염전력을 실험한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 인체골에 있어서 골수강을 제거하지 않고 $60^{\circ}C$의 항온식염수에서 열처리하면, 골심부의 온도가 $20^{\circ}C$에서 $58^{\circ}C$에 도달하는데 소요된 시간은 경골근위부가 32분 50초, 대퇴골 원위부가 30.분, $80^{\circ}C$ 항온조에서는 경골근위부가 12분 50초, 대퇴골 원위부가 11분 10초 소요되었다. 돼지 경골간부의 피질골내부(endosteum)에 열전대를 부착하고 뼈 양끝을 밀봉하여 같은 실험을 행한 결과 $50^{\circ}C$까지는 시간에 비례해서 일정한 비율로 온도상승이 이루어 졌으며, $20^{\circ}C$에서 $58^{\circ}C$에 이르는 시간이 $60^{\circ}C$ 항온조에서는 7분, $70^{\circ}C$에서는 3분 30초, $80^{\circ}C$에서는 2분이었다. 따라서 임상에서 골수강을 제거 후 장골의 간부(shaft) 만을 항온조에 달굴때는 골구강내에도 데워진 심염수로 가득차게 되므로 상기 시간의 절반이 못되는 짧은 시간내에 피질골의 내부가 $58^{\circ}C$에 이르리라고 판단되었다. 골수강을 소파하지 않은 돼지 경골을 각각 4쌍씩 우측만을 $60^{\circ}C$ 35분, $80^{\circ}C$ 15분 열처리한 후 실험군의 최대염전력은 대조군과 비교할 때 +7.0%, -5.1%, -3.2%, -4.2%의 변화가 있었고, $80^{\circ}C$ 15분 열처리후는 -4.3%, -3.8%, -1.4%(1예는 실험 오류로 제외됨)의 변화가 있었다. 골수강을 완전 제거한 되재 경골을 각각 4쌍씩 우측만을 $60^{\circ}C$, $70^{\circ}C$, $80^{\circ}C$에서 15분 열처리 후 실험군의 최대염전력은 대조군과 비교할 때 -3.4%, -4.2%, -0.7%, +2.7%의 변화가 있었고, $70^{\circ}C$ 15분 열처리후는 -2.8%, -3.9%, -2.1%(1예는 실험 오류로 제외됨)의 변화가 있었으며, $80^{\circ}C$ 15분 열처리후는 +5.2%, -4.4%, -2.9%, -0.3%의 염전력 변화가 있었다. 그러므로 골수강을 제거하지 않고 $80^{\circ}C$ 35분, $60^{\circ}C$ 15분 열처리 하거나, 골수강을 완전소파 후 $60^{\circ}C$ 15분, $70^{\circ}C$ 15분, $80^{\circ}C$ 15분 열처리해서는 각군사이에 염전력의 유의한 차이는없었다. 이상의 결과로 돼지 경골의 경우 $60^{\circ}C$ 항온에서는 35분까지, $80^{\circ}C$이하의 항온에서는 15분까지 열처리하여도 골강도에는 거의 영향이 없는 것으로 나타났다.
