2.Autoradiographic studies on the uptake and distribution of C(14)-glucose by Paragonimus westermani.
The Korean Journal of Parasitology 1971;9(1):9-16
Autoradiographic study was performed in order to know the distribution of exogenous C(14)-glucose by lung fluke, Paragonimus westermani, incubated in Tyrode medium containing 10 uCi/ml of labeled substance. After 1 hour incubation at 37C, microautoradiographs of this fluke showed that black grains derived from radioactive carbon were accumulated mainly in the parenchyme and subcuticular musculature. The muscular tissues such as oral sucker, pharynx and ventral sucker revaled considerable density of fine grains. Slight radioactivity was also observed in the regions of ovary, testes, vitelline follicles, eggs in uterus, intestinal ceca, and even in excretory bladder. Structures showing the least activity included the cuticle and uterine tubules of this fluke.

Throughout medical science today there is increasing emphasis upon understanding the familial and associated genetic interplay in various disease processes. We observed a case of Legg-Calve-Perthes disease developed in monozygotic male twins. They have some mirror image of each other, for example hair whorl and involved hip. This report of the disease which is present in mirror fashion in idenitical twins illustrates enen more vividly the genetic interaction in the disease. Therefore, those who are aware that Legg-Calve- Perthes disease has appeared in a family should keep in mind the probability of the disease developing in another member.

8.Three Cases of Acneiform Demodicidosis due to Long - Term Application of Corticosteroid Ointment.
Korean Journal of Dermatology 1978;16(1):59-63
Demodicidosis is caused by the enormous infestation of 400 micron sized demodex folliculorum which normally exist, though in small number, in pilosebaceous unit. Its characteristic clinical feature is erythema and erythematous indurated papulopustular eruptions combined with itching and buming sensation. Microscopic examination of indurated pustule always reveals demodex folliculorum. Many authors have reported that demodicidosis aggravated by avoidance of using soap, long-term use of cosmetic cream, especially cold cream, topical or systemic use of corticosteroid. Our patiednts were housewives of 46,39, and 42 years old and presented characteristic clinical featurss and skin lesions by topical application of corsicosteroid for 1~2 years and were diagnosed as steroid acne. But simple microscopic examination reveled demodex folliculorum. We treated them with 5% sulfur lintment and soap and water cleansing of face with remarkable clinical improvement.

9.Clinical Observation of Epidermolysis Bullosa Dystrophica.
Korean Journal of Dermatology 1977;15(3):313-319
Epidermolysis bullosa Dystrophica is rare, chronic non-mflammatory mechanobullous disease of hereditary trait, which easily produces bulIa by minor trauma or spontaneousIy. The lesions usually appears from birth or in infant involving especially lower leg, hand, foot and lea,ds to erosive, hemorrhagic bulla, secondary infection, pruritus and scar formation and sometimes deformity of nails and cicatrical alopecia. It sometimes involves oral mucosa, esophagus, eye, tooth, bone, respiratory system, anus and vagina. This disease has rare tendency for carcinogenesis from cicatrical Iesions. These manifestations are more severe in recessive type than in dominant type. We had observed 5 cases of EBD at Ewha Womans University Hospital from Sept. 1975. to Jul. 1976. Among 5 cases, 4 cases occurred from birth, 1 case occurred at age l. Skin lesivns were hand, foot, knee area in all 5 cases. Head, face were involved in 2 cases. Arm, leg, trunk, buttock were involved in 3 cases. In skin manifestations, bulla, erosive bulla, secondary infection, scar formation, pruritus, nail deformity, positive Nikolsky sign were observed in all 5 cases. Hemorrhagic bulla, miliaria. were presented, in 1 case, alopecia in 2 cases. Aggrevated season were summer in 4 cases, spring in 1 case, HistologicalIy, microscopic observation, after H@-E stain, revealed hyperkeratosis in 3 cases, acanthosis in 2 cases, partial atrophy in 1 case, partial ulcer in 1 case, snbepidermal bulla in 5 cases, chronic nonspecific inflamma- tory cell infiltration of upper dermis in 3 cases, fibrosis of lower dermis in 1 case.

10.The Relationship between Noise Exposure Level in Worksite and Workers' Stress symptoms.
Korean Journal of Preventive Medicine 1996;29(2):239-254
Health services on industrial noisy environment have been provided only for noise-induced hearing loss management until now. But gradually, modern diseases and death have come to be related to stress and mental health deeply, therefore noise-induced mental disorder, like a stress became very important. In this point, the purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between noise exposure level in worksite and workers' stress symptoms. This study included a survey of 786 manual workers selected from 89 worksites in 21 factories in Puchon. The results were as follows: 1. For demographic characteristics, most of the workers were males(80.8%), the 20~29 years old were 34.5% and those who graduated from high school were 65.3%. The workers whose monthly income ranged from 500,000 to 800,000 won were 37.5% and who have a religion were 47.9%. 2. For occupational characteristics, workers who had worked 1~5 years in the factories were 33.0%. Those who felt much for them workload were 43.9% and who worked more than 8 hours a day were 73.9 %. Those who were dissatisfied with their job and pay were 31.9% and 50.6%. The workers who responded ventilation condition of their worksites were bad were 51.9% and the dissatisfied with working environment of their wofksites were 45.9%. 3. Workers who were suffering from tinnitus were 53.3% and those who perceived hearing loss were 50.l%. Persons who reported they always wore earplugs at work were 35.4%. Those who felt earplugs bigger than their ears were 30.6% and those who experienced eardiseases caused by earplugs were 25.6%. 4. For the noise exposure level in worksite, workers who were exposed to 80-90dB were 30.3%, 90-100dB were 26.4% and 50~70dB were 19.2%. 5. workers' stress symptoms were significantly related to marital status and their monthly income p< 0.05). Workers who were single and had lower monthly income showed higher PSl (Psychiatric symptom Index) scores than those who were married and had higher monthly income. Higher PSl scores were also significantly related to l~2 days night-work per week, much for them workload, dissatisfaction with their job, and bad relationship with their bosses and coworkers. 6. Higher PSl scores were significantly related to severe tinnitus and perceived hearing loss p<0.001). Workers who felt the earplugs they use did not fit their ears showed significantly higher PSl scores(p<0.01). Workers who reported that they did not feel they need earplugs showed significantly higher PSl scores(p<0.05). Increased experience of eardisease caused by earplugs that did not fit were also significantly related to higher PSl scores(p<0.001). 7. The higher noise exposure level in worksite from 80dB was, the more severe stress symptoms including PSl subparts were reported; Anxiety, Anger, Depression, and cognitive disorder(p<0.001). 8. According to the results of stepwise multiple regression analysis, factors affecting workers' PSl scores were perceived hearing loss(R2=0.160), noise exposure level jn worksite(R2=0.110), relationship with coworkers, amount of workload, monthly income and relationship with bosses orderly and the total R2 of this 6 factors was 0.371. 9. The most significant factors that have impact on manual workers' stress symptoms were perceived hearing loss and noise exposure level in worksite, especially noise exposure level in the worksite was the most affective factor on the depression symptom.
