1) To become physicians who care for patients as human beings, medical students must know about child welfare. A serious problem in the fields of medicine and welfare is child abuse. Collaboration is needed to support children and families, but many challenges exist.
2) The goal of our Multidisciplinary Team Workshop, which started in 2006 and targets students in a wide range of fields, is to educate future practitioners about the necessity of multidisciplinary collaboration.
3) More than 80% of the participating students felt the workshop was useful, and the participation of medical students increased the significance of the workshop for students from other disciplines.

Twenty six adult patients who underwent prosthetic heart valve replacement and treated anti-thrombogenic therapy, were divided into 2 groups. One was administered Warfarin alone, another was administered Warfarin plus Aspirin (162mg/day) as antiplatelet therapy. Trapidil (300mg/day) was administered to all of the patients. Platelet aggregation, plasma level of TXB₂ (stable metabolite of thromboxane A₂), and 6-keto-PGF₁ (stable metabolite of PGI₂) were measured before and 1, 3, 6 months after Trapidil therapy. Platelet aggregability suppressed in both 2 groups. Plasma TXB₂ level, and TXB₂/6-keto-PGF₁ ratio showed a tendensy to decrease (p<0.05) 6 months after administration. In the Aspirin plus Trapidil group, platelet aggregability, serum TXB₂ level, and TXB₂/6-keto-PGF₁ ratio are significantly lower than that in the Trapidil only. These results suggest that Trapidil is clinically useful for antiplatelet agent, but the combined Aspirin plus Trapidil therapy is more efficacious than the Aspirin or Trapidil single therapy.

In order to obtain a reliable test result of the HLA detection of major histocompatibility antigen, it is very significant to get complete result by using excellent anti-sera. so far no standard sera for HLA type has been seen in Korean people. Because we have been unable to find Korean specific antigen in Korea, we have performed screening test on the 150 pregenancy women in order to find an excellent Korean anti-HLA anti-body sera. To get panel lympocyte reaction, 20 healthy Korean and 34 healthy japanese who were well aware of HLA type were given microlymphocyte toxicity test of Thrasaki method. The result showed the the 10percent of the 150 persons had anti HLA sera. Of 10 percent, 2 persons indicated having P 50. it is estimated that there are unknown A, B locus blank and antigen still seisted among many Koreans and we are ging to screen about 2,000 more persons in the future.
