Background: Clefts in newborns are associated with severe morphological and functional impairment. Especially the lip is of importance as if the treatment result is unsatisfactory, it can lead to psychological changes in the patient. Different operative procedures have been developed over the last decades. The aim of the presented study was the comparison of the surgical techniques according to Millard and Pfeifer regarding the temporal development of the postoperative symmetry of the lip height and mouth width. Methods: Digitized photographs of patients from the department of oral and maxillofacial surgery at the University of Göttingen were evaluated from 1979 to 1996. With a video analysis program, the lip height and mouth width were analyzed regarding the symmetry. We demonstrated the symmetry values over a period of 8 years in order to show the influence of growth on postoperative results. Results: The development of the vertical symmetry of the Philtrum and the lip vermillion on the cleft side in comparison to the healthy side behaves differently depending on Pfeifer and Millard. The lip height of the cleft lip was shorter in both techniques than on the healthy side, but Pfeifer's difference was significantly more pronounced. The lip vermillion height on the cleft side was slightly shorter in the Millard group and markedly larger in the Pfeifer group. Both techniques can achieve good symmetry results for the vertical dimension of the lip. According to Pfeifer, the development of the horizontal dimension on the cleft side is bigger within the first 4 years than on the healthy side; according to the Millard technique, the horizontal development is smaller. These differences are greater within the first 6 years and approach between the 6th and 8th year. Conclusions: The Millard technique demonstrates better results concerning the philtrum and vermillion symmetry during growth within the first 6 years. Over the whole study period, growth corrects the philtrum and vermillion symmetry within the Pfeifer group.

감각장애는 뇌졸중에서 흔히 나타나며, 발에서 나오는 촉각의 감각정보는 균형을 위해 중추신경계에 중요한 정보를 제공한다. 본 연구의 목적은 뇌졸중 환자의 발바닥 감각역치와 균형의 상관관계를 연구하는 것이다. Semmes-Weinstein Monofilaments를 사용하여 발바닥의(엄지발가락과 뒤꿈치) 감각역치를 평가하였다. 균형은 버그균형척도와 MTD system을 이용하여 정적 선 자세와 앉은 자세에서 일어서기 동안의 마비쪽과 비마비쪽의 체중 분포 정도를 측정하였다. 정적 선 자세와 앉은 자세에서 일어서기 동안 체중 분포 정도는 비마비쪽보다 마비쪽에서 더 낮았다(P<0.05). 버그균형척도는 36.00±1.53이었다. 마비쪽의 엄지발가락 감각역치는 버그균형척도(r=-0.444, P<0.05), 정적 선 자세(r=-0.332, P<0.05), 앉은 자세에서 일어서기(r=-0.390, P<0.05)와 상관관계가 있었다. 마비쪽의 뒤꿈치 감각역치는 버그균형척도(r=-0.467, P<0.05), 정적 선 자세(r=-0.532, P<0.05), 앉은 자세에서 일어서기(r=-0.516, P<0.05)와 상관관계가 있었다. 이러한 결과는 발바닥의 높은 감각역치가 균형 능력 저하에 영향을 미칠 수 있음을 시사한다. 앞으로 뇌졸중 환자의 감각 역치에 대한 연구는 뇌졸중 환자의 재활과 감각 평가에 도움이 될 것이다.

본 연구는 강제유도운동치료와 인지-지각 훈련을 병행하여 환측의 손 기능 변화, 일상생활 과제 수행 시 환측 상지의 사용빈도 변화, 그리고 환측 상지의 움직임의 질적 변화를 알아보고자 하였다. 연구의 대상은 Taub 등 (1999)이 제시한 조건을 만족하고 뇌졸중 발병 후 3개월이 경과하였고 NCSE 또는 MVPT 결과 경도 손상을 보이는 환자 10명을 대상으로 하였다. 중재 방법은 CIMT군은 4주 동안 낮 시간동안에는 변형된 resting arm-splint를 착용하도록 하여 건측 상지의 사용을 제한시켰고, CIMT+CPT군은 CIMT군과 같은 조건에서 인지-지각 훈련을 병행하여 실시하였다. 대조군은 변형된 resting arm-splint를 착용하지 않고 일반적인 작업치료를 받도록 하였다. 그 결과, Jebsen-Taylor Hand Function Test의 먹는 흉내 내기, 크고 가벼운 깡통 옮기기, 그리고 크고 무거운 깡통 옮기기 항목에서 CIMT+CPT군이 가장 큰 변화량을 보였으며 CIMT군도 CTL군과 비교하여 더 많은 호전을 보였다. 각 집단 간의 Motor Activity Log의 환측 상지의 사용빈도에 대한 변화량은 통계학적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<.05). 집단 간의 환측 상지의 움직임의 질적 향상에 대한 변화량은 CIMT군과 CIMT+CPT군 모두 CTL군보다 통계학적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<.05). 따라서 인지 지각 능력의 경도 손상을 가지고 있는 뇌졸중 환자에게 실시한 강제유도운동치료는 환측의 손 기능 향상과 일상생활 과제 수행 시 환측 상지의 사용 빈도와 움직임의 질적 향상에 효과를 보였고, 강제유도운동치료와 인지-지각 훈련을 병행하였을 때 더 큰 시너지 효과를 보였다.

SLE 환자들에서 인지기능의 장애가 있는지를 알아보기 위해서 신경정신과적 병력이 없는 내과 외래 SLE 환자 20명과 정상 대조군 20명을 대상으로 전산화 신경인지기능 검사인 Vienna test system을 시행하고 이를 인지기능에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 임상 변인들과의 연관성을 분석하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1) SLE 환자군과 정상 대조군의 신경인지기능 검사의 각 항목 비교 인식력 검사항목에서 SLE 환자군은 정상 대조군에 비해 정확하게 응답한 반응수가 적었으며 '예'와 '아니오' 중 '아니오'를 정확하게 반응한 수도 적었다. 또한 '예'와 '아니오'에 대해 각각 정확한 반응을 하는 평균 반응시간이 길었으며 검사소요 시간도 길었다. 주의력 검사항목에서는 SLE 환자군이 정상 대조군에 비해 정확하게 응답한 반응수가 적었고, 평균 반응시간이 길었다. 그러나, corsi단기 기억력 검사항목에서는 시각적 단기 기억력 범위와 정확하게 맞춘 총 응답수에서 두군 간에 유의한 차이가 없었다. 표준도형 지능검사항목에서 SLE 환자군은 정상 대조군에 비해 정확하게 응답한 반응수가 적었다. 신경행동학적 인지상태 검사중 기억력 항목에서 SLE 환자군은 정상 대조군에 비해 유의하게 낮은 점수를 보였다. 2) 신경인지기능의 각 항목과 환자군의 연령, 교육연한, SLE 질환 활성도(SLE Disease Activity Index), 우울 증상의 정도, 항 ds-DNA항체. 보체 C3/C4, 스테로이드의 용량 등의 임상 변인들과의 상관관계를 비교하였을 때 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다. 이상의 결과에서 질환 활성도가 낮은 SLE환자들은 과거 신경정신과적 증상의 병력이 없고 병의 이환 기간이 비교적 짧음에도 불구하고 인지기능의 장애를 나타내었다. 그리고 이는 기타 장기의 침범으로 인한 비특이적 영향이 아닌 중추신경계의 침범에 의한 것으로 보이며 우울정도나 스테로이드 용량에 영향을 받지 않는 것으로 생각된다.

Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) is a combination of signs and symptoms caused by the compression of the vital neurovascular structure at the thoracic outlet region. It may stem from a number of abnormalities, including degenerative or bony disorders, trauma to cervical spine, fibromuscular bands, vascular abnormalities and spasm of the anterior scalene muscle. CPT (current perception threshold) is defined as the minimum amount of current applied transcutaneously that an individual consciously perceives. It enables quantification of the hyperesthesia that precedes progressive nerve impairment, as well as hypoesthetic conditions. We experienced a case of thoracic outlet syndrome caused by fibrosis of anterior scalene muscle. The patient was a 30 years old woman with a 3 years history of numbness on the ulnar side, progressive weakness and coldness of both hand, tiredness in the left arm, nocturnal pain in the left forearm, and pain in the left elbow, shoulder and neck. Conservative treatment, stellate ganglion block, cervical epidural block, anterior scalene block and previous operation, including both carpal tunnel release, provided no remarkable relief to the patient. A left scalenectomy and first rib resection were performed by transaxillary approach and left cervical root neurolysis was done. After surgery, we measured CPT using neurometer and found conditions worsening in the opposite arm. We performed the same procedure on right side, and followed by CPT measurement. This case suggests that CPT is a useful measurement of recovery and progression of TOS.

Background For patients with neuropathy, vasculopathy, and impairment of wound healing, treatment of a diabetic foot ulcer poses many challenges. A large number of dermal analogues have been invented in an effort to overcome these challenges. Matriderm, a dermal analogue, is made from bovine collagen and elastin. This study was conducted in order to evaluate the effectiveness of Matriderm for treatment of diabetic foot ulcers, in comparison with skin grafting. Methods Sixty patients with diabetic foot ulcer were included in this prospective study. The average age of the patients, who had type II diabetes mellitus, was 58 years old. The patients were allocated to an experimental or control group with their consents. The patients were selected with their consent for inclusion in an experimental group and a control group. Patients in the experimental group received a Matriderm appliance and a split-thickness skin graft, while those in the control group received only a split-thickness skin graft. Results A shorter hospitalization period (7.52 weeks) was observed in the experimental group than in the control group (9.22 weeks), and a shorter period of time (8.61 weeks) was required for complete healing, compared with the control group (12.94 weeks), with statistical significance (P<0.05). A higher elasticity ratio of the affected side to the non-affected side was observed in the experimental group, compared with the control group (P<0.01). Conclusions Matriderm enables effective healing and improves elasticity in treatment of patients with diabetic foot ulcer.

Background and Objectives : The Motor evoked potentials (MEP) study may be useful in the evaluation of the degree of impairment in the motor nervous system and in the determination of the prognosis. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the status of central nervous system in acute and subacute state of cerebral ischemia by comparing the changes of MEP in the initial and follow-up study. Methods : Twenty patients with hemiparesis caused by ischemic stroke were recruited for this study. We tested MEP within 7 days and followed-up after 14 days after symptom onset. The cerebral motor cortex area, cervical area for upper extremity and lumbar area for lower extremity were stimulated by transmagnetic stimulator. The central motor conduction time(CMCT) was measured with the difference in MEP caused by stimulating the vertical area and spinal area. The CMCT of hemiparetic patients were classified into three groups-normal, delayed, and no evoked MEP groups. Results : The CMCT in hemiparetic side of acute ischemic stroke patients were singnificantly delayed (P < 0.05) compared with the control group. The CMCT of hemiparetic side in the follow-up study showed no sinificantly difference in comparison to the control group. The prognosis of motor improvement was better in the groups of delayed MEP than the groups of no evoked MEP. Conclusion : The CMCT of hemiparetic and contralateral sides were delayed in acute ischemic stroke, compared with control group and were returned to normal boundaries in subacute state. But in the most cases with no MEP response in the initial study, also showed no MEP response in the follow-up study. The recovery occurred in the subacute state in cases with mild hemiparesis, whereas recovery did not occur in the subacute stage in case with severe hemiparesis.

Recently, epidural morphine has been administrated to decrease patients' systemic stress responses such as: suffers, endocrine responses and impairment of pulmonary function, etc. Epidural morphine provided excellent analgesic effect, but incomplete sensory blockade as compared to epidural local anesthetics, which has sympathetic blockade effect and tachyphylaxis. Therefore, the authors surmised that low dose bupivacaine on low dose epidural morphine improved postoperative pain with greater sensory analgesia than epidural morphine alone. The effect of low dose bupivacaine on epidural morphine analgesia for postoperative pain was evaluated in seventy patients. They were physical status I-III by ASA classification. Patients were randomly divided into 2 groups and they were administrated morphine 2.5 mg only (group I), morphine 2.5 mg plus 0.125% bupivacaine (group II) through epidural catheter 1 hour before the end of the operation. During postoperative second days, their analgesic effects were evaluated by visual analogue scale (0-10). Side effects were also evaluated. The results were as follows, 1) On the day of the operation, VAS score showed significant differences between two groups (morphine group $3.20{\pm}0.16$, morphine plus bupivacaine group $2.77{\pm}0.08$; p < 0.05). 2) On the postoperative and second day, there were no statistical differences between the groups according to VAS score. 3) The incidence of pruritus, nausea, and vomiting were no differences in both groups. 4) None of the patients showed objective sedation or a low respiratory rate (< 10 bpm). We concluded that epidural administration of low dose bupivacaine on the epidural morphine analgesia was an effective method to decrease postoperative pain with little change in frequencies of side effects compared to epidural morphine alone.

The purpose of this study was to investigate how COP displacement of a hemiplegic foot in stance phase during gait is related to clinical balance measures and the recovery stage in hemiplegic stroke patients. Twenty-eight functionally ambulant hemiplegic patients who had suffered from strokes and thirty age-matched healthy subjects participated in this study. COP parameters were calculated. Clinical balance was measured using the Functional Reach Test (FRT) and Timed Up and Go Test (TUGT). The recovery stage, proprioception, and clonus of the ankles or lower extremities were also measured for physical impairment status. The COPx max-displacement in the medial-lateral side of the stroke patients was significantly longer than that of the normal group (p=.038). The COPy max-displacement in the anterior-posterior side of the stroke patients was significantly shorter than that of normal group (p<.001). Significant differences in the COPx and COPy displacement asymmetry index were found between the two groups (p<.01). The FRT was correlated with the COPx displacement (r=.552) and COPy displacement (r=.765). The TUGT was correlated with the COPy displacement (r=-.588) only. The recovery stage of the lower extremities was correlated with COPy displacement (r=.438). The results of the study indicate that the characteristic of COP displacement in hemiplegic feet in stance phase during gait is related to balance ability and recovery in stroke patients. COP parameters acquired by the mapping of foot pressure in stance phase during gait will provide additional useful clinical information. This information can be used by clinicians to assess objectively the pathologic gait with other diseases and to evaluate the therapeutic effects on gait in stroke patients.
