  • 사람들이 모기를 싫어하는 이유는 많다. 모기는 사람과 가축에 각종 병원체를 옮기며, 또한 많은 스트레스를 주고, 이로 인한 정신적인 피해가 크기 때문이다. 가축에서는 가축이 수면을 제대로 취하지 못하게 하고, 질병을 일으켜서 경제적인 피해를 입히기도 한다. 모기로 인해 육계는 성장이 늦어지고, 산란계에서는 산란율이 떨어진다. 사람이 모기에 물리게 되면 간지럽고, 빨갛게 붓는 피부 알러지가 생기고, 잠잘 때 윙윙 소리를 내어 수면을 방해한다는 점, 그로 인한 불쾌감, 정신적 스트레스 등의 피해를 입는다. 그러나 무엇보다도 모기가 주는 가장 큰 피해는 각종 질병을 옮기고 다닌다는 것이다. 모기로 인해 옮겨지는 병으로는 뇌염(encephalitis), 마랄리아(malaria), 상피병(filaria), 황열병(yellow fever), 뎅기열(dengue fever) 등을 들 수 있다. 그 중에서도 국내에서 발병하는 병은 일본뇌염(Japanese encephalitis), 말라리아, 상피병 등이 알려져 있다. 가축에서 오는 모기 매개 질병은 소의 아까바네병, 유행열, 이바라기병 및 츄잔병, 아이노바이러스 감염증 등이 있고, 돼지에서는 사람에게 뇌염을 일으킬 수 있는 돼지일본뇌염이 있고 닭에서는 닭류코사이토준병이 있다.

  • Multiple studies have established that mild encephalitis/encephalopathy with a reversible splenial lesion (MERS) exhibits reversible diffusion restriction in the white matter, including the splenium. There have been a few previous reports of the change in fractional anisotropy (FA) of MERS cases. Herein, we report the longitudinal changes in axial and radial diffusivity (AD and RD), and FA in a 15-year-old boy patient with MERS. Our case demonstrated that a MERS lesion had a significant drop of AD in the early period and gradual recovery. On the contrary, RD did not show any significant change.

  • Two dead and two terminally sick badgers with signs of lacrimation and nasal discharge were submitted to the Pathology Division of the National Veterinary Research Institute for necropsy. The major gross findings included chronic dermatitis and pneumonia. histologically intracytoplasmic and intranuclear acidophilic inclusion bodies consistent with Canine Distemper (CD) virus particles in lung kidney urinary bladder skin foot pad stomach and small intestine. Additionally there were diffuse bronchointerstitial pneumonia hyperkeratosis of foot pads and focal non-suppurative encephalitis. Canine distemper infection in these badgers was further confirmed by immuofluorescent technique which demonstrated CD virus-specific antigens in lung and kidney sections.

  • The site of the synthesis of Japanese encephalitis virus(JEV) in the actinomycin-treated and infecter PS Y15 cells(a porcine kidney stable cell line) was observed by the immunofluorescent antibody technique, acridine orange staining, and the autoradiographic analysis. In the parallel studies by immunofluorescent technique and acridine orange staining it the infected cells, Viral protein(as an antigen) and viral RNA were detected at the same site of cytoplasm. In the autoradiographic analysis, the cytoplasmic labeling of $^3H$-uridine was due to the synthesis of JEV-RNA, while the nucleolus and nucleus were not involved. In the autoradiographic studies on the secton of infected cells, the $^3H$-uridine was frequently incorporated around the cytoplasmic vacuoles. This localization of labeling agreed with the site of acridine orange positive granules. The results suggest that the syntheses of the viral RNA and viral protein occurred in the similar site of cytoplasm of the infected cells, and also the virus particles seem to be assembled in the sites of the viral RNA and protein syntheses.

  • A Shih Tzu Puppy had clinical onset of anotexia crying and progression of neurological sings when enlargement of the cranial vault at 1 month old and died after showing clinical signs during 2 months period. Radiological and pathological examinations were performed. Radiological findings were homogeneous appearance of the calvaria with cortical thinning, loss of the normal convolutional skull markings and persistent fontanelles. Grossly enlargement of the cranial vault thinning of the bone and defective closure of the fontanelles were also observed. The entire subcortical area of the cerebral hemispheres with severe, dilatation of ventricles and cerebrospinal fluid(CSF) wits absent. There was parenchyma atrophy affecting chiefly in the white mater and the cerebral cortices, axon degeneration and necrosis and gitter cell infiltration in the whiter matter and the subependymal area. Mononuclear perivacular cuffing in the cerebrum and the pons was shown. Based on the radiological, gross and histopathological findings, this case was believed to have congenital hydrocephalus with nonsuppurative encephahitis. Possible etiology on the case is also discussed.

  • Neurological complications attributed to coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) infection have been reported including acute disseminated encephalomyelitis, Guillain-Barré syndrome, and so on. Herein, we report a 49-year-old woman presented with acute encephalopathy and paraplegia simultaneously after COVID-19 infection. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed symmetric hyperintense basal ganglia lesions on T2-weighted imaging. Cerebrospinal fluid pleocytosis, motor axonal neuropathy and enhancement of conus medullaris nerve roots on spine MRI were observed. We treated her with high-dose corticosteroid and intravenous immunoglobulin.
