Korean Journal of Preventive Medicine 1977;10(1):155-159
A study on the status of death in rural area was conducted during the period from July '75 to August '75. 1,225 families and 8,067 population (4,124 male, 3,943 female) had been lived and 149 events of death since 5 years before study were occurred in survey area, Nammyon, Hwasoongun, chonnam, The summarized results were as follows : 1. Quinquennial death rate was 3.7 (5.2 for male, 2.1 for female). 2. In respect of age group, the highest group was over 70 years old group (age at death, 30.8% of total death). High age groups (over 50 years old) occupied 71.1% of total death and death rate in these groups were higher in male than female. Child death (0-4 years old) occupied 7.4% of total death and infant death rate was higher in female than male. 3. Duration of sickness before die was highest in 1 to 12 months (39.6%). 4. The most frequent cause of death was disease of digestive system (12.1%). Other important causes were disease of circulatory system (10.7%), disease of respiratory system (9.4%) and infectious and parasitic disease (4.7%). Diseases of digestive system was not the most frequent cause of death in male (14.0%) and disease of respiratory system was the most frequent cause in female (9.5%).

PURPOSE: This study examined the value and indications of repeated MRI in degenerative lumbar diseases under conservative management by comparing the primary MR and repeated MR images with respect to the symptomatic and radiological changes. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Seventy patients with degenerative lumbar disease under conservative management underwent repeat MRI. Five MRI findings, including disc, foramen, facet joint, nerve root, and ligamentum flavum, were used to examine the difference between the initial and repeat MRI. The severity was graded using a four-point scale for each item. The patients were divided into 3 groups in order to compare the radiological changes and symptomatic changes, as follows; Group I no change from the initial symptoms (38 cases), Group II aggravation of the initial pain (18 cases), and Group III aggravation of the initial neurology or the development of a new neurology (14 cases). RESULTS: The mean scores of each item the disc, foramen, facet joint, nerve root and ligamentum flavum increased from 1.76, 1.31-1.79, 1.71, and 1.47, respectively, to 1.90, 1.47, 1.80, 1.79, and 1.53, respectively. Group III showed the greatest proportion of cases with an increasing grading score (78%, 11 cases) only the disc was significant. CONCLUSION: Repeat MRI in degenerative lumbar disease under conservative management was found to be valuable only in cases with aggravated neurological symptoms, and was not relevant in cases with persistent symptoms or aggravated pain alone.

STUDY DESIGN: A review of all presentations at the Korean Society of Spine Surgery(KSSS) congress from 2001 to 2005. OBJECTIVES: To determine the presentation to publication rate in peer-reviewed journals of abstracts presented at the KSSS congress and evaluate the consistency between the presented abstract and published full-text counterpart. SUMMARY OF LITERATURE REVIEW: The rate of publication for presentation at international meetings has been determined but there has been no study for the KSSS. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This study reviewed all podium presentations of the past KSSS Spring and Fall meetings from 2001 to 2005. A computer search for each abstract was performed. The final published journal, time to publication and publication rate were evaluated according to subspecialty. The published full-text article was compared with the original abstract and evaluated for consistency with respect to the author, material and method, and result. RESULTS: A total of 288 free-papers were identified, of which 167 of them were published as full-text articles. The mean time to publication was 12.15 months. The publication rates according to the subspecialty were basic 67%, lumbar 68%, cervical 64%, deformity 50%, trauma 53%, minimal 14% and others 51%, respectively. CONCLUSION: The presentation to publication rate of the Korean society of spine surgery podium presentations was lower than other international meetings but the articles showed a high consistency rate.
