This study has been designed to analyze longterm trend of home-ownership probability over the family life cycle. In this study, 633 female household heads were interviewed on their critical life event such as pregnancy, birth or death of households, marriage, and residential movement between 1987 and 1990 in Oxaca, Mexico. The raw data composed of 100,000 lines were transformed into yearly segmented observation data, proposed by Allison. The results are drawn as follws: 1) There is significant effect of marriage cohort on residential mobility and home ownership: couples who married in 1960s are likely to change their residence at early stage of family life than those who married in 1940s. They also have lower probability of home ownership for 10 years after marriage than the other cohorts. 2) Over all the cohorts, it is consistent tendency that probability of home ownership continuously increases over the entire family life cycle for 40 years. 3) Of the logistic regression analysis of home ownership on household socioeconomic variables, the homeownership was positively related with age of marriage and time since marriage, and was negatively related with education of female head. Over in this study, it is proven that home owenership is ultimate goal of most families, and it is a function of family event variables.

A 40-year-old G1 P0 L0 A1 woman was referred to our clinic with 6-year history of infertility. Before visiting the clinic, she had 3 cycles of In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF) procedures (2 cycles of Controlled Ovarian Stimulation-IVF and 1 cycle of frozen-thawed Embryo Transfer (ET)) at other clinic. She had medical history of abortion at early gestation following FET (frozen-thawed-ET). The patient had complete type of septate uterus, double cervix and longitudinal vaginal septum. Vaginal septotomy was done first and 1 month later, hysteroscopic septoplasty was followed using ballooning filled with dye. After septoplasty, we inserted ballooning and left for several days to compress septal endometrium on the septectomy area. All procedures were done in the ambulatory operating room without laparoscopy or admission. 3 months later, she had in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) and FET procedures in our clinic. She had successful pregnancy and now is at 22 weeks of gestation. New ambulatory septoplasty using dye-filled ballooning is easy, safe and minimally invasive surgery for treatment of complete septate uterus.

Purpose: The reproductive health of women in early adulthood can affect pregnancy, childbirth, and menopause in later life. Menstrual symptoms not only affect daily life, but are also a reflection of a woman's reproductive health. This study was conducted to explore the factors affecting menstrual symptoms among university students. Methods: The general characteristics, life style, menstrual characteristics, stress, and menstrual symptom of 177 female students were assessed through an online survey at one university. An independent sample t-test, one-way variance analysis, correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis were performed using the SPSS 22.0 program. Results: The menstrual symptom score was 91.68±32.11 points, and the score of 'mood change' was the highest. Stress (��=.38, p<.001), amount of menstruation (��=.20, p=.001), menarche age (��=-.18, p=.003), health problems (��=.16, p=.010), and age (��=.15, p=.016) were found to have a significant effect on menstrual symptom, and the explanatory power of the regression model was 40%. Conclusion: This study investigated the degree and influencing factors of menstrual symptom using the Korean Menstrual Symptom Scale (KMSS) developed for Korean university students. Among the factors influencing menstrual symptom, stress appeared to play a significant role. Stress management, observation of menstrual characteristics, and general health care are necessary to maintain a woman's reproductive health.

Imperforate anus is an anomaly caused by a defect in the development of the hindgut during early pregnancy. It is a relatively common congenital malformation and is more common in males. Although there are cases of a solitary imperforate anus, the condition is more commonly found as a part of a wider spectrum of other congenital anomalies. Although urgent reconstructive anorectal surgery is not necessary, immediate evaluation is important and urgent decompressive surgery may be required. Moreover, as there are often other anomalies that can affect management, prenatal diagnosis can help in optimizing perinatal care and prepare parents through prenatal counseling. In the past, imperforate anus was diagnosed by prenatal ultrasonography based on indirect signs such as bowel dilatation or intraluminal calcified meconium. Currently, it is diagnosed by directly checking the perineum with prenatal ultrasonography. Despite advances in ultrasound technology, accurate prenatal diagnosis is impossible in most cases and imperforate anus is detected after birth. Here, we present two cases of imperforate anus in female fetuses that were not diagnosed prenatally.

High fructose diet is associated with the global metabolic syndrome (MtS) pandemic. MtS develops in early life, depending on prenatal and postnatal nutritional status. We hypothesized that ovariectomy increases the chances of developing MtS in adult offspring following high fructose intake by the mother. Pregnant C57BL/6J mouse dams drank water with or without 20% fructose during pregnancy and lactation. After weaning, the pups were fed regular chow. The offspring were evaluated until they were 7 months of age after the mice in each group, both sexes, were gonadectomized at 4 weeks of age. The offspring (both sexes) of the dams who had high fructose intake developed MtS. In the offspring of dams who drank tap water, orchiectomy increased the body weight gain and body fat accumulation, while ovariectomy increased the body fat accumulation as compared to the sham controls. In the offspring of dams with high fructose intake, orchiectomy decreased the body weight gain, body fat accumulation, visceral adiposity, and glucose intolerance, while ovariectomy exacerbated all of them as compared to the sham operations. These data indicate that ovariectomy encourages the development of MtS in adult offspring after maternal high fructose intake, while orchiectomy prevents the development of MtS. The sex difference indicates that male and female sex hormones play contradictory roles in the development of MtS.

수태기간중 태아가 모체에 의해 면역학적으로 거부반응을 일으키지 않고 동종이식 상태로 유지되는 기작을 밝히는 연구의 일환으로 C3H/HeJ계의 암컷 생쥐와 DBA/2계의 수컷 생쥐를 교배하여 모체에서 발생되는 체계적인 면역기능 및 국소적 면역기능현상에 대하여 연구하고자 수태기 간별로 비 장 및 자궁으로 들어가는 림프절에서 T세포 및 B세포의 아형을 측정하였고 자연살해 세포의 활성도를 측정하였다. 또한 수태혈청 및 수태성 호르몬이 자연살해세포의 활성도에 미치는 영향을 알아보았다. 각 수태기간별로 비장세포에 있어서 T세포와 B세포의 아형을 관찰한 결과, Thy-1.2$^{+}$세포는 수태기간중 중기 이후에 감소하기 시작하여 수태 4기에는 대조군에 비하여 유의하게 감소하였으며 수태말기에는 회복하였다. L3T4$^{+}$세포도 Thy-1.2$^{+}$ 세포와 비교하여 비슷한 경향으로 감소 또는 증가하였다. Ly2$^{+}$세포는 수태중기 이후부터 대조군에 비하여 유의하게 증가하였으며 B세포는 수태중기 이후부터 수태말기까지 계속 증가하였다. 비장에 있어서 자연살해세포의 세포독성은 수태 5일에서 수태 8일 사이에 가장 증가하였으며 그 이후는 대조군 수준으로 감소하였다. 정상혈청 및 수태혈청의 자연살해세포의 세포독성에 대한 영향을 수태시기별로 조사한 결과, 정상혈청과 수태혈청 모두 자연살해세포의 세포독성을 유의하게 억제하였으며, Progesterone은 시험관내실험과 생체내 실험 모두 약리적인 농도이상에서 농도에 의존적으로 자연살해세포의 세포독성을 증가시켰으며, HCG는 5 unit/ml에서 5000 unit/ml까지 처리농도에 비례하여 자연살해세포의 세포독성을 억제하였다. 자궁으로 들어가는 림프절에서 T세포의 아형은 Thy-1.2$^{+}$세포는 수태 2기부터 증가하여 대조군에 보다 유의하게 증가하였으며, L3T4$^{+}$세포의 유의한 변화없이 Ly2$^{+}$세포가 수태 2기 이후부터 대조군에 비하여 유의하게 증가하였고 분만 직전에는 조금 감소하였다. 자궁으로 들어가는 림프절에서의 자연살해세포의 세포독성은 착상직후 대조군에 비하여 유의하게 증가하였으며, 수태중기와 수태후기에도 대조군에 비하여 세포독성이 증가하였으며, 같은 시기의 비장세포의 자연살해세포의 세포독성보다 높게 나타났다.

클로미펜 시트레이트가 배란반응, 난자의 형태, 난소 스테로이드 생성 및 수정란 발육에 미치는 영향을 PMSG 처리한 랫드에서 조사하였다. 먼저 세가지 용량(0.05mg, 0.1mg 및 1.0mg)의 클로미펜 시트레이트 또는 부형제를 미성숙의 Sprague Dawley 암컷에 일령 25일부터 27일까지 3일간 투여하였다. 그후 28일령에 이들 모든 암쥐에게 4IU PMSG를, 30일령에는 1.0mg 클로미펜 시트레이트가 처치된 일부의 암쥐에게 10IU hCG를 추가로 투여하였고, 31일령에 모두 도살하였다. 한편 4IU PMSG와 더불어 0.1mg클로미펜 시트레이트 또는 부형제를 투여한 일부의 암쥐는 숫쥐와 교미시킨 다음 임신 2일부터 5일까지 매일 도살하였다. 클로미펜 시트레이트의 용량을 증가시킴에 따라 배란반응(배란율 및 평균 배란난자의 수)과 난소중량이 대조군에 비하여 현저히 감소하였고 반면 배란난자의 변성율(%)은 그 용량에 비례하여 증가하였다. 클로미펜 시트레이트에 의한 배란반응 및 난소중량의 억제적 반응은 10IU hCG 추가투여에 의하여 완전히 대조군 수준으로 회복되었다. 그리고 클로미펜 시트레이트의 투여용량의 증가는 프로제스테론과 안드로젠의 혈장치 감소와 더불어 에스트라디올의 혈장치를 현저하게 증가시켰다. hCG의 추가투여는 이러한 클로미펜 시트레이트 작용에 의해 증가된 에스트라디올치를 현저하게 감소시키고 감소된 프로제스테론치를 증가시키는데 효과적이었다. 0.1mg의 클로미펜 시트레이트를 투여한 임신 랫드로부터 회수한 수정란은 전기간에 걸쳐 그 변성율(%)의 현저한 증가와 아울러 특히 임신 3일부터 그 수가 유의성있게 감소하였다. 클로미펜 시트레이트 투여에 의한 수정란의 난분할 속도도 임신 3일부터 대조군에 비하여 현저하게 지연되었으며 아울러 회수된 수정란의 난분할율(%)도 전기간에 걸처 대조군보다 지속적으로 저하되었다. 위의 결과는 흰쥐에 있어서의 클로미펜 시트레이트 투여에 의한 배란억제반응과 아울러 그 작용기전에 성선자극호르몬의 분비억제 또는 차단작용이 포함됨을 증명하였고 이 약제의 투여에 의한 난자의 형태적 정상성과 수정란발육에 대한 유해효과는 수정이전 시기에 있어서의 난소스테로이드 생성 특히 에스트라디올의 증가에 기인함을 제시한다.

Bypassing acrosome reaction and fusion process in intracytoplasmic sperm injection(ICSI), most of injected spermatozoa still contain intact acrosome contents and plasma membrane. It Is not known yet what acrosome contents and plasma membrane of spermatozoa have effect on the development of embryo. For further understanding of fertilization process after ICSI, we studied the time of pronucleus formation, disappearance and first cleavage in human zygote, and pregnancy rate in relation to acrosome reaction rate of spermatozoa after ICSI. Seventy cycles undergoing ICSI program were randomly selected. Sperm suspension from 38 cycles were treated 50% human follicular fluid(hFF) for 3 hours in order to induce acrosome reaction, others were not treated as control. Acrosome reaction in hFF treated and non-treated group was assessed by fluorescein isothiocyanate(FITC)-conjugated Arachis hypogea(PNA) and Pisum sativum agglutinin(PSA). Oocytes were classified into 'good' and 'poor' according to their morphology. After ICSI, fertilization of oocytes were assessed by detection of two pronuclei at 16 hours. The pronuclei disappearance and first cleavage of zygotes were observed at 24 hours, and then embryos were transferred to uterus after culture for 72 hours. The rate of acrosome reaction of spermatozoa in hFF treated group was significantly higher than that in control(p<0.01). Fertilization rates of good oocytes were not different both control and hFF treated group(81.3%(174/206) vs. 72.1%(102/130)). But, in poor oocytes, the fertilization rates in hFF treated group(72.1%(149/183)) were increased compared than those of control group (63.6%(98/140), p<0.01). In either good or poor oocytes, the rates of pronuclei disappearance in hFF treated-spermatozoa injected oocytes were higher than control (59.1%(103/174), 56.4%(84/149) vs. 32.4%(33/102), 37.8%(37/98), p<0.01). Also, the rates of thirst cleavage were increased in hFF treated group (31%(54/174), 24.1%(36/149)) compared than those of control group (10.8%(11/102), 13.2%(13/98), p<0.01). The pregnancy rates of hFF treated group (42.1%(16/38)) were slightly higher than control group (28.1%(9/32), p>0.05). But, the pregnancy rate of group which possessed more than one cleavaged zygote at 24 hours was higher than group which did not (45.2%(19/42) vs. 21.4%(6/28), p<0.05). From these results, the development of zygotes were faster in higher acrosome reacted sperm group than lower acrosome reacted sperm group after ICSI. Our results may be explained that acrosomal membrane and plasma membrane are easily detached from spermatozoa in acrosome reacted spermatozoa compared with acrosome intact sperm in the cytoplasm of oocyte during pronuclear formation. We conclude that the injection of acrosome reacted spermatozoa will increase the pregnancy rate as they can induce fast embryonic development in ICSI.

목 적: 난소 반응이 저하된 환자에서 GnRH agonist flare up protocol과 GnRH antagonist protocol의 효용성을 비교하고자 하였다. 연구방법: 2003년 1월부터 2005년 8월까지 체외수정시술을 받은 환자들 가운데 이전의 체외수정시술 주기에서 5개 이하의 난자가 채취되고 기저 FSH 농도가 12 mIU/ml 이상인 총 144명 가운데 73명은 GnRH agonist flare up요법을 사용하였고 71명은 GnRH antagonist 요법을 사용하였다. 양군간에 주기의 취소율, 채취된 난자수, 양질의 수정란의 수, 착상율, 임신율, 출산율을 비교하였다. 결 과: 각 군간에 나이는 평균 37.4세와 38.1세로 antagonist group에서 높았으나 통계학적 유의성은 없었다. 그 외에 기저 FSH 농도와 이전 주기의 취소율도 통계학적 유의성은 없었다. GnRH agonist flare up 주기와 GnRH antagonist 주기에서 취소율은 각각 30.1%, 53.5%로 GnRH antagonist protocol에서 유의 있게 높게 나타났다. 채취된 난자수도 각각 4.18개와 2.16개로 차이를 보였으며 난소 과자극 기간은 각각 10.5일과 9.2일로 antagonist protocol에서 약간 낮은 모습을 보였다. 최고 혈중 E$_2$의 농도와 good embryo 개수도 GnRH agonist flare up요법에서 유의 있게 높게 나타났다. 각 군에서의 착상율, 이식 주기당 임신율, 이식 주기당 출생율은 GnRH agonist flare up요법에서 약간 높은 경향을 보이기는 하였으나 통계학적인 유의성은 없었다. 결 론: 두 군간의 비교에서 GnRH agonist flare up 요법이 시작 주기당 임신율, 출산율에서 높은 경향을 보였으나 통계학적 의의는 없었다. 하지만 난소기능이 저하된 환자에서 난자의 채취 개수는 GnRH agonist flare up 요법이 GnRH antagonist를 사용한 주기보다 의의있게 높게 나타났다. 이러한 연구 결과로 볼 때 저 반응군에 있어서 GnRH antagonist flare up요법이 저 반응군에 있어 향상된 난소 반응을 기대할 가능성이 높을 것으로 생각된다.
