바지락 (Ruditapes philippinarum) 은 모래와 진흙이 많은 연안에 주로 분포하지만 드물게 울산의 태화강처럼 하천의 중류나 하류에서도 분포한다. 울산 태화강에서는 예전부터 바지락이 서식해 왔으며 인근 어민들의 전통적인 소득원으로서 주요 수산자원의 대상이 되어 왔다. 본 연구는 2009년 6월부터 2010년 6월까지 바지락의 현장조사를 통하여 자원생태학적 특성, 자원량 및 적정어획량 등의 자원평가를 실시하고 지속가능한 자원관리의 방안 제시 및 어업정책 수립을 위한 기초자료를 확보하고자 하였다. 태화강 바지락의 수명은 6세로 추정되었고 von Bertalanffy growth function에 의하여 성장계수 K 및 $L_{\infty}$은 0.341 및 46.64 cm로 구해졌다. Pauly 방법에 의한 순간전사망계수 (Z) 및 어획개시연령 ($t_c$) 은 1.171/년과 1.37년으로 구해졌고 현재의 순간어획사망계수는 0.626/년으로 계산되었다. 바지락의 자원량은 총 서식면적 $1.46\;km^2$과 평균 면적당 생체량 1,005.3 g/$m^2$으로 1,483톤으로 추정되었다. 조사해역 바지락의 순간어획사망계수 (F) 에 대한 가입당생산량 (Y/R) 과 어획개시연령 ($t_c$) 과의 관계는 현재의 어획개시연령인 1.37세, 현재의 순간어획사망계수 F 에서 가입당생산량이 1.38 g임을 나타내고 있으며 적정어획사망계수 ($F_{0.1}$)에 의한 연간 생물학적 허용어획량 (ABC) 은 512톤으로 산정되었다.

최근 줄기세포를 이용한 재생의학분야의 세포치료 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있으나 상대적으로 복잡한 구조를 갖는 신장에서는 난치성 질환인 급성신부전에 대한 줄기세포 치료의 효과는 아직도 논란의 여지가 많다. 이는 연구자마다 다양한 동물모델을 사용하는 것이 한 원인으로 지적되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 줄기세포의 치료효과 분석을 위한 최적의 동물모델 조건을 확립하고자 한다. 쥐를 사용하여 세 종류의 급성신장손상모델을 다음과 같이 다양한 농도와 조건에서 분석하였다: glycerol (대조군, 8 ml/kg, 10 ml/kg), cisplatin (대조군, 5 mg/kg, 10 mg/kg)과 허혈/재관류 (대조군, 35 분 허혈, 45 분 허혈). 줄기세포의 재생능력 평가를 위한 모델의 적합성 정도를 신장손상과 회복의 형태적, 기능적 패턴과 생존률 분석을 통하여 실시하였다. 독성모델인 glycerol과 cisplatin은 각각 10 ml/kg과 7.5 mg/kg 농도에서, 그리고 허혈모델은 45 분 모델에서 대조군 및 다른 비교모델에 비해 장기간의 관찰 기간 동안 신기능의 유의적 차이를 보였다. 또한 45 분 허혈 모델에서 50%의 사망률을 보인 것을 제외하고는 모든 군에서 관찰기간 동안 100% 생존율을 보였다. 조직소견에서 허혈과 glycerol 모델에서는 2일째, cisplatin 모델에서는 5일째 각각 유의적인 조직변화가 관찰되었다. 따라서, 관찰기간 동안 급격한 생존율 감소 없이 안전하고, 조직학적 평가와 신기능에서 대조군과 유의적인 차이를 보이는 cisplatin 7.5 mg/kg, glycerol 10 ml/kg, 35 분 허혈 모델이 치료효과를 평가하기에 적합한 모델로 사료되며, 줄기세포의 세포치료효과 분석에 적합한 급성신장손상 모델로 추천된다.

배경 : 기관지 소매 절제술은 종양이 기관지 근위부를 침범한 경우 전폐 절제술 후 폐기능의 감소가 커서 시행할 수 없는 경우에 폐실질을 보존함으로써 폐기능을 유지 할 수 있는 술식이다. 하지만 수술 수기의 난해함과 술 후 위험한 합병증 때문에 전폐절제술의 대 안으로만 여겨져 왔으나, 최근 많은 보고들은 다른 절제술에 비해 낮은 사망률과 낮은 morbidity를 보이고 있어 하나의 표준치료로 인식되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 기관지 소매 절제술을 시행받은 환자의 술 후 합병증의 발생률과 생존율을 분석하여 폐암 환자에 대한 기관지 소매 절제술의 타당성 여부를 조사하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 1989년부터 1998년 까지 서울 대학교 병원 흉부외과에서 기관지 소매 절제술을 시행받은 원발성 폐암 환자 45명을 대상으로 후향적으로 연구하였다. 남녀의 비는 40 : 5이었고 평균 연령은 57.4$\pm$9.7(23 ~72) 세였다. 수술 후 조직검사상 세포형태는 편평상피암이 35명, 선암이 7명, 선편평상피암이 1명이었으며 기타 2명이었다. 수술부위는 우상엽이 24명, 좌상엽이 11명, 좌하엽이 3명, 우하엽이 1명, 우중엽과 우하엽이 3명, 우중엽과 우상엽이 2명, 좌 전엽이 1명이었다. 수술 후 병기는 stage Ib가 11례, stage IIa가 3례, IIb가 16례, stage IIIa가 13례, IIIb 2례였다. 결과 : 조기 합병증으로 무기폐의 소견을 보인 경우가 9례, 7일 이상의 공기유출이 있었던 경우가 7례, 14일 이상의 늑막 삼출이 7례, 폐렴이 2례, 유미흉이 1례, 문합부 파열이 1례에서 있었다. hospital mortality는 3례 있었으며 후기 합병증의 대부분은 문합부위 협착에 의한 폐 허탈이었으며, 총15명에서 외래에서 기관지 내시경을 시행하였고, 이 중 7례에서 문합부위에 섬유화, granuloma, 허혈등에 의한 폐쇄가 관찰되었고 1례에서는 내시경으로 치료를 시행하였고 1례에서는 조직검사상 재발이 확인되어 방사선치료를 시행받았다 외래 추적 중 사망한 환자는 21례였으며, 흉곽내 국소 재발(동측 폐, 동측 종격동 임파선 전이)이 9례, 원격전이가 12례 있었다. 장기생존환자 42명의 평균 추적관찰기간은 35.5$\pm$29 개월이며 병기별로는 I 기 환자 11명은 모두 생존 중이며, II기 환자 19명의 3년 생존율은 63% 환자 13명의 3년생존율은 21%였으며 N stage에 따른 3년 생존율은 N0는100%, Nl은 63%, N2는 28%였다. 각 병기별 median survival time은 II기 59개월, IIIa기 16개월, Nl, N2는 각각 55개월, 22개월이었다. 결론 : 기관지 소매 절제술은 사망률이나 합병증의 발생률이 다른 술식보다 더 높지 않으며, 기능적인 면에서도 우수하여 폐기능이 나빠 전폐절제술을 견딜수 없는 일부 국한된 환자에서만 시행하는 것이 아니라, 기관지 근위부에 위치한 폐암에서 적극적으로 시행될 것으로 본다.

Oxidative stress and its consequent lipid peroxidation exert harmful effects, which have been currently involved in the generation of carbon tetrachloride (CCl₄)-induced fibrosis(cirrhosis). In this study, it was investigated whether dried extract of 田螺(Concha Cipangopaludinae; CC) has liver functional improvement, antioxidative and antifibrotic effect in rats those were induced liver fibrosis by CCl₄ administration. The female Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 3 groups(Normal, AC, AC-CC) and were observed in 6 weeks. Except for normal group, liver fibrosis(cirrhosis) in rats were developed by CCl₄ administration(0.8 ㎖/rat/week). And the rats were treated with prepared CC(p. o. 2 ㎖/day/rat). At the time of sacrifice, the liver, kidney and spleen were weighed and the ratio of organ weight/body weight was calculated. The MDA, hyp and biochemical parameters(AST, ALT, ALP, t-bili) were measured in sera and liver tissue of rats. The strong yellow color of urine was observed in all CCl₄-treated group compared with normal group, but jaundice didn't appear in CCl₄-treated group. The mortality of CCl₄-treated group is very low(<13%) during 6 weeks of observation time. The ratio of liver/body as well as the weight of liver in CCl₄-treated rats significantly increased compared with that in normal group(p<0.001). The level of clinical parameters in sera of all liver fibrosis(cirrhosis) developed rats were significantly higher than that of normal group(p<0.001-0.05). Especially the value of BUN, ALP, t-bilirubin in AC-CC group showed 20.9%, 19.6%, 47.9% lower than that in AC group. The content of hyp in CCl₄-treated rats was significantly higher than normal group(p<0.001～<0.05), and showed 12.2% lower value in the AC-CC group than AC group(p<0.05). The production of lipid peroxidation(MDA) in sera and liver tissue significantly increased under the fibrotic(cirrhotic) condition(p<0.001～<0.05). Especially the MDA value of AC-CC group in sera significantly 46.5% decreased compared with that of AC group(p<0.05), and the MDA value of AC-CC in liver tissue showed 21.4% lower than that of AC group. Concha Cipangopaludinae can be improved hepatic function, and maybe have effect of liver protection, antioxidation and antifibrosis.

Purpose: Pulmonary toxicities, including infectious pneumonia (IP) and idiopathic pneumonia syndrome (IPS), are serious side effects of total body irradiation (TBI) used for myeloablative conditioning. This study aimed to evaluate clinical factors associated with IP and IPS following TBI. Materials and Methods: Fifty-eight patients with hematologic malignancies who underwent TBI before allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation between 2005 and 2014 were reviewed. Most patients (91%) received 12 Gy in 1.5 Gy fractions twice a day. Pulmonary toxicities were diagnosed based on either radiographic evidence or reduced pulmonary function, and were subdivided into IP and IPS based on the presence or absence of concurrent infection. Results: Pulmonary toxicities developed in 36 patients (62%); 16 (28%) had IP and 20 (34%) had IPS. IP was significantly associated with increased treatment-related mortality (p = 0.028) and decreased survival (p = 0.039). Multivariate analysis revealed that the risk of developing IPS was significantly higher in patients who received stem cells from a matched unrelated donor than from a matched sibling donor (p = 0.021; hazard ratio [HR] = 12.67; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.46-110.30). Combining other conditioning agents with cyclophosphamide produced a higher tendency to develop IP (p = 0.064; HR = 6.19; 95% CI, 0.90-42.56). Conclusion: IP and IPS involve different risk factors and distinct pathogeneses that should be considered when planning treatments before and after TBI.

Myasthenia gravis is a neuromuscular transmission function disorder characterized by fatigue and weakness of voluntary muscles. This muscular weakness is intensified by activity and stress, and improved by the use of anticholinesterase compounds. It was initially described by Erb in 1879 and later named myasthenia gravis by Jolly in 1895. Although the pathogenesis is Known to be an autoimmune related reduction in the number of available acetylcholine receptors at neuromuscular junctions, the role of thymus in myasthenia gravis is still unclear and under investigation. Thymectomy in the management of myasthenia gravis has become increasingly important since Dr. Blalock observed in 1939 that some patients with thymic tumors and myasthenia gravis improved following thymectomy. A clinical study of 102 cases of myasthenia gravis was performed at Yonsei University College of Medicine. Seoul, Korea from Jan. 1976 to Jun. 1986. In order to determine which factors are of prognostic significance, attention is focused upon pre-operative patient evaluation, problems in operative and post-operative care, and long-term follow-up observations. The results were as follows: 1. The sex distribution was 67 females and 35 males, the mean age of onset was 28.95*1.69 years, and the maximal incidence occurred between 21 and 40 years of age [56 cases: 54.9%]. 2. Clinical manifestations of ocular symptoms were seen to 70 patients [68.6%] extremities weakness in 33 [32.3%], bulbar weakness in 29 [28.4%], and dyspnea in 13 [12.7%]. 3. Study cases more than two thirds were classified as mild types [MG 1 and MG 11A] and 6 cases as grave [MG 1V] based on the modified Osserman`s classification system, 4. Thymectomy was performed in 19 cases which presented in severe myasthenia symptoms and showed no improvement with cholinergic drugs. Histologic examination of the excised thymus glands revealed no abnormalities in 4 cases, thymic hyperplasia in 5, benign thymoma in 5, and malignant thymoma in 5. 5. Immediate post-operative complications included 2 cases of pneumothorax which were treated by tube thoracostomies, there was no operative mortality. 6. The response to cholinergic drugs in 36 cases younger than 20 years old and in 27 cases older than 40 years was relatively poor, while that in 35 cases between the ages of 21 and 40 years old was good. 7. Thirty of 39 cases in groups IIB, III & IV improved markedly with medical or surgical management while only 16 of 59 cases in the mild groups [I and IIA] improved, almost all surgical cases improved in all categories. 8. There were 5 deaths. occurring between 7 months and 3 years 3 months of treatment of myasthenia gravis. The causes of death were myasthenic crisis in 2 cases, respiratory failure due to candidiasis & radiation pneumonitis in one case, cerebral hemorrhage due to high blood pressure in two case.

Radial forearm free flap (RFFF) has been established itself as a versatile and widely used method for reconstruction of the head and neck, although it is still criticized for high mortality of donor site. Delayed wound healing, cosmetic deformity, vascular compromise and potentially reduced wrist function have many plastic surgeons hesitate to adapt it as a first choice in micro-reconstruction. To overcome these drawbacks, some techniques for donor-site repair such as V-Y advancement with full thickness skin graft (FTSG), application of artificial dermis ($Terudermis^{(R)}$) or acellular dermal matrix ($AlloDerm^{(R)}$), and double-opposing rhomboid transposition flap have been reported. Authors performed 4 cases of RFFF in old-aged patients of the head and neck cancer from April 2005 to February 2006. We compared the outcomes of donor site of RFFF which were resurfaced with split thickness skin graft (STSG) only and STSG overlying an $AlloDerm^{(R)}$. Patients were all males ranging from 59 to 74 years old (mean, 67.5). Three of them had tongue cancers, and the other showed hypopharyngeal cancer. All cases were pathologically confirmed as squamous cell carcinomas. We included the deep fascia into the flap, so called subfascially elevated RFFF in three cases, and in the other one, we dissected the RFFF suprafascially leaving the fascia intact. The donor site of the suprafascially elevated RFFF was resurfaced with STSG only. Among three of subfascially elevated RFFFs, donor-sites were covered with thin STSG only in one case, and STSG overlying $AlloDerm^{(R)}$ in two cases. All RFFFs were survived completely without any complication. The donor site of the suprafascially elevated RFFF was taken well with STSG only. But, the partial graft loss exposing brachioradialis and flexor carpi radialis muscle was unavoidable in all the subfascially elevated RFFFs irregardless of $AlloDerm^{(R)}$ application. Considering that many patients of the head and neck cancer are in old ages, we believe the RFFF is still a useful and versatile choice for resurfacing the head and neck region after cancer ablation. Its reliability and functional characteristics could override its criticism for donor site in old-aged cancer patients.

Sabaiksan has been prescribed to treat various allergic diseases in herbal medicine which were induced by various vasoactive amine released from the mast cells. The constituents of Sabaiksan are Mori Cortex Radices(MCR), Lycii Cortex Radicis(LCR) and Glycyrrhizae Radix(GR). Recently, simple models of compound 48/80 induced anaphylactic shock and cutaneous reaction in vivo were developed to test various agents employed in the field of allergy and toxicology research. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of Sabaiksan on compound 48/80 induced anaphylactic stock, cutaneous reaction and mesenteric mast cell degranulation rate in ICR mice, and on compound 48/80 induced peritoneal mast cell degranulation and histamine release in vitro. Groups of ICR mice were intraperitoneally pretreated with $100{\mu}{\ell}$ of saline, $MCR(2g/m{\ell}),\;LCR(2g/m{\ell}),\;GR(g/m{\ell})$ or Sabaiksan itself(MCR+LCR+GR) at 24, 12 and 1 hour before compound 48/80 solution ($10{\mu}{\ell}/gm$ B. W) were peritoneally given into them, and then mortality within 72 hours after the compound 48/80 injection, and mesenteric mast cell degranulation rate at 15 minutes after compound 48/80 injection were calculated. In vitro experiment, $400{\mu}{\ell}$ of rat peritoneal mast cell suspension$(10^6cell/m{\ell})$ were pretreated with $50{\mu}{\ell}$ of saline, $MCR(2g/m{\ell}),\;LCR(2g/m{\ell}),\;GR(g/m{\ell})$ or Sabaiksan itself at room temperature for 30 minutes, and then $50{\mu}{\ell}$ of compound 48/80 solution $(100{\mu}g/m{\ell})$ were added into it. 30 minutes after the addition of compound 48/80 solution, histamine release assay in the supernatant of peritoneal mast cell suspension were performed employing radioisotope enzymatic assay and morphologic changes of mast cells in each regular time point were photographed. Compared with controls, compound 48/80 induced anaphylactic shock was significantly inhibited by MCR and GR pretreatment into the ICR mice. Significant inhibition of compound 48/80 induced cutaneous reaction, mesenteric mast cell degranulation rate in vivo and histamine release from the rat peritoneal mast cells in vitro was observed only in MCR pretreated group. From the above results, it is suggested that MCR component of Sabaiksan may playa key role to suppress mast cell function since it has been applied to various allergic diseases.
