Regional left ventricular dysfunction is common in patients with coronary artery disease and accurate analysis of regional dysfunction is of particular interest. For the quantitative assessment of regional dysfunction, we measured regional ejection fraction by radial sector division method in 19 patients with acute myocardial infarction and 13 normal controls who had multigated blood pool scan. And two independent observer analyzed regional wall motion using 5 point grading system in 18 patients undergoing radionuclide ventricular cineangiography. The results obtained were as follows : 1) Regional wall motion scores for the gated blood pool study agreed completely in 72 of 108 segments (66.7%) and agreed within 1 grade in 88 of 108 segments(81.5%) and agreement rate is lowest in the septal area. 2) Global left ventricular ejection fraction was 63.2+/-4.2% in normal controls, 36.6+/-6.8% in extensive anterior wall infarction group and 52.6+/-9.7% in inferior wall infarction group. The value of extensive anterior wall infarction group was significantly lower than that of inferior wall infarction group(p<0.005). 3) Regional left ventricular ejection fraction by radial sector division method in normal control group were as follows : area 1 ; 56.5+/-6.7%, area 2 : 77.9+/-4.8%, area 3 ;84.3+/-5.5%, area 4 : 76.8+/-6.6%, area 5 ; 84.7+/-7.6%, area 6 ; 85.9+/-11.2%, area 7 ; 75.5+/-12.3%, area 8 ; 74.9+/-14.0%, area 9 ; 75.5+/-8.8%, area 10 ; 54.2+/-11.0%, 11 ; 34.5+/-16.3, area 12 ; 37.1+/-18.0%. 4) Mean regional ejection fraction in 7 patients with anterior wall infarction showed significantly lower values in area 4 to area 8, and in area 2 to area 5 in case of inferior wall infarction group. 5) We thought that regional ejection fraction obtained by radial sector division method is valuable index for the management and evaluation of patients with coronary artery disease.

Nerve fiber bundle index(NFBI) is a new index which detects visual field depression in 21 nerve fiber bundle zones, reflecting the topographical arrangement of visual field defects. We applied this index to 39 eyes with normal visual field and 131 eyes with early glau-comatous field defect(mean defect

Retinal hemorrhages in the newborn infant were first described shortly after the invention of the ophthalmoscope(Jaeger. 1961). Frequency of the retinal hemorrhages in the newborn infant has been reported to be between 2.6 and 50%. We postulate that the retinal hemorrhages are caused by maternal factors and fetal factors. Maternal factors include delivery type, maternal age, duration of pregnancy, parity, duration of labor, and maternal blood pressure. Fetal factors include color of the amnionic fluid, body weight, and sex. We examined the fundus of 161 newborn infants and investigated the above factors that influenced the retinal hemorrhages. The results were as follows: 1. The overall incidence of the retinal hemorrhages were 35.4%. 2. According to the delivery types, retinal hemorrhages were found in 57.9% after vacuum extraction, in 41.7% after induction delivery, in 33.8% after spontaneous delivery, and in 13.5% after Cesarean section. 3. As the duration of pregnancy increased in complicated delivery, retinal hemorrhages also tendted to increase. 4. The incidence of hemorrhages were greater in the hypertensive mother and abnormal color of amnionic fluid in spontaneous delivery. 5. The incidence of retinal hemorrhages were greater in the high body weight, multipara, and normal duration of labor. 6. Retinal hemorrhages were not related the maternal age and fetal sex. 7. Retinal hemorrhages were absorbed within four weeks.

Malignant chondroid syringoma, previously called "mixed tumor of the skin of the salivary gland type"is a fairly uncommon type of sweat gland tumor. Malignant chondroid syringoma frequently arises from the trunk and extremities, whereas the benign tumor is common to the head region. The present case occurred in a female. The malignant nature of the tumor was evident from repeated recurrences after excision of the mass and histopathological study. Lack of response to radiotherapy and chemotherapy led to widespread metastasis. We report a case of malignant chondroid syringoma with lung metastasis in a 39-year-old female patient and response to chemotherapy. We also reviewed the literatures of malignant chondroid syringoma.

To create an experimental glaucoma model in rabbit and to study the effect of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) on rabbits ocular tissues, we treated trabecular meshwork of 7 adult pigmented rabbits with Q-switched Nd:YAG laser. And then we studied the IOP lowering effect of topical verapamil in experimental glaucoma model. The IOP and outflow facility were measured with an applanation pneumotonograph (Alcon, Texas). During sustained rap elevation, 50ul of 0.25% verapamil was instilled in one eye and normal saline in the fellow eye. The IOP was measured 1, 2, 4, 8 hours after instillation. The measurement was repeated twice at 2 weeks interval. After 5 weeks, the IOP increased from an average baseline IOP of 16.6mmHg to 25.51mmHg, an increase of 55.6%. The outflow facility was decreased from 0.21 microliter/min/mmHg to 0.09 microliter/min/mmHg. There were statistically significant reductions in IOP in both verapamil and placebo-treated eyes(p<0.05). The reduction was greater in verapamil-treated eyes than in placebo-treated eyes(p<0.05). Maximal reduction of IOP was observed 2 hours after single-drop of verapamil, with significant reduction of IOP up to 4 hours duration(p<0.05). During the observation period of this study, cupping of the optic nerve head developed. Histopathologic examination revealed extensive scarring of the anterior chamber angle structure. There are marked hyaline degeneration of retinal ganglion cells in temporal retina.
