3.Clinical Recognition and Management of Patients Exposed to Biological Warfare Agents : Anthrax, Smallpox, Plague, and Botulism.
Journal of the Korean Medical Association 2002;45(5):575-588
The recent cases of anthrax due to bioterrorism in the United States have reminded us that our society is also vulnerable to biological attacks. Illnesses due to bioterrorism are not naturally occurring diseases, and therefore may show presentations not familiar to many doctors. The last case of smallpox was reported in 1960, and doctors aged less than 60 years have no experience of smallpox. Anthrax is a rare zoonosis, and no case of inhalation anthrax has been reported in Korea. American doctors might be on high alert to bioterrorism after September 11, 2001. However, it took more than 2 weeks from the symptom onset of the index case to the recognition that anthrax outbreak had occurred due to bioterrorism. This delay shows how difficult it is to recognize bioterrorism. This article describes clinical recognition and management of patients exposed to biological warfare agents, especially agents causing anthrax, smallpox, plague, and botulism.

10.HIV drug resistance in treatment-naive HIV patients.
Korean Journal of Medicine 2007;73(3):235-236
Antiretroviral therapy for treatment of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection has improved steadily since the introduction of combination therapy in 1996. With the advancement of antiretroviral therapy, the mortality of AIDS patients has markedly improved. However, drug resistance has been emerging as a major problem in HIV treatment. Several studies reported that the prevalence of transmitted resistant virus involving antiretroviral-naive people in developed countries was around 10%. Primary drug resistance is rare in HIV-1 infected patients in Korea. A cohort study is need to monitor resistant HIV-1 among newly infected individuals.
