Squamous papilloma is a commom benign lesion of the oral mucosa, but rarely encountered in dermatologic practice. Usually, oral squamous papilloma is a solitary peduculated lesion with verrucous surface, and known to be associated with human papilloma virus (HPV). We experienced a histologically confirmed case of oral squamous papilloma which occured in a 54-year-old man.

BACKGROUND: Efforts to reduce the wastage of blood components are necessary because of the shortage of blood components. To find ways of reducing the blood component wastage, we monitored the trends and reasons for wastage and we analyzed this data. METHODS: We have investigated and analyzed the amount and reasons for wastage from 2003 to 2005 by reviewing the wastage statements, and the information on these wastage statements was classified according to several aspects. Ouestions about the reasons for wastage and the methods for reducing such wastage were created and these were widely distributed to the doctors and nurses working at Pusan University Hospital. The results of the survey were analyzed. RESULTS: The wastage rates of blood component from 2003 to 2005 had a tendency to slightly decline: 1.49% in 2003, 1.26% in 2004 and 1.23% in 2005. The most frequent reason for wastage was the improvement in the patient's condition and the second most frequent reason was death of the patient. The favorite answers for the question about the most likely reason for wastage were related to different aspects of medicine, and also to the improvement in the patient's condition (52.6%) and the death of patient (22.6%) for the aspect of blood management, the most frequent answers were overcharge (43.3%) and delay of blood returning (17.7%). The analysis of the pattern of wastage showed that only 5 departments were responsible for 71.5%~78.1% of the wastage. CONCLUSION: Systematic and active management of the transfusion process, along with intensive cooperation of clinicians, is needed to prevent a considerable amount of blood component wastage.

PURPOSE: This study was designed to explore what experiences nurses had while caring and providing emotional support for patients. METHODS: Participants were eight nurses working at hospitals for more than one year. Data were collected from June, 2006 to January, 2007 through in-depth interview by using tape-recordings. Data were analysed with the phenomenological method proposed by Colazzi(1978). RESULTS: From significant statements, 4 clustered themes, 7 themes and 23 sub-themes were extracted from the essential meaning of the emotional experience of hospital nurses. The 4 clustered themes were 'movement of mind', 'affection and service for patients', 'worthwhile and conflict' and 'control oneself'. The 7 themes were 'special feeling', 'rapport formation', 'consideration', 'human interaction', 'value discovery', 'loss of volition', and 'keep to balance'. CONCLUSION: Although nurses had tough experiences for providing care for patients' emotional support, they had also experienced spiritual maturity from its experience. The result of this study would contribute for nurses not only to care for patients who need emotional support but also to develop knowledge in nursing.

Human caspase-2, Ich-1 (Ice and Ced-3 homolog), has two different forms of mRNA species derived from alternative splicing, which encodes Ich-1 and Ich-1s. Ich-1v which induces apoptosis is antagonist of Ich-1s which suppresses Rat-1 cell death by serum deprivation. To investigate functions of Ich-1 and Ich-1s in T celi apoptosis, the fusion DNA constructs were made with the ecto and transmembrane of CDB and Ich-lv or Ich-1s and CDS-Ich-1 or CD8-Ich-1s chimeric protein was transiently expressed on Jurkat T cells. Tyrosine phosphorylation of intracellular proteins was induced in these transfectans when activated shortly by anti-CDB Ab. CDB-Ich-li transfectant in serum-rich condition and CDB-Ich-ls transfectant in serum-deprived condition underwent apoptosis when treated with anti-CDS Ab or incubated with NIH3T3 cells expressing stably Fas-L on their surface. We also made six antisense DNA constructs which could specifically inhibit the expression of Ich-1v, Ich- 1s, and then they were transiently transfected into Jurkat T cell. The overexpression of both of the antisese- Ich-1 against N-terminal 42 bp and against C-terminal 366 bp inhibited apoptosis through Fas signalling. But, when three different forms of antisense-Ich-1s were overexpressed in their transfectants, antisense-DNA against N-terminal 197 bp increased knd the one against C-terminal 66 bp inhibited apoptosis, instead the full size of antisense-DNA did not give any effects on apoptosis through Fas pathway.
