3.A Study of Anctiviy with CAstsnea Crenata Flos.
Korean Journal of Dermatology 1976;14(2):91-95
There are many herbs used in the treatment of dermatophytosis as home medicine and Castanea crenata Flos (C.C.F.) is one of that used in Kyung gi-do district. With that regard we tried to examine in vitro antifungal activity of the C.C.F. with its water extract and alcohol extract as the test materials. Until now many authors have studied the antifungal activity with several plant extracts, as like the alcohol extracts of Zanthoxylum piperatum Fructus and Berberis Korea palibin or Fennel oil, and reported that these plant extrscts or essential oiI have good antifungal activities in vitro and in vivo. On that they said that the principal fractions those have strong fungistatic activity were all alikely the fatty acids chemically similar with the well known undecylenic acid. At this in vitro experiment the extracts of C.C.F. were diluted. serially in the Sabourauds dextrose agar and certain portions of fungi (the strains of Trichophyton (Tr.) mentagrophytes and Tr. rubrum) were transplanted into each medium containing different concentrations of test materials then observed its growth for 2 weeks at room temperature. After that we measured the sizes of colony grown in various conditions and compired with that of the normal medium to determine the fungistatic effectiveness. As the result, in the view of the colony sizes, Tr. mentagrophytes and Tr. rubrum equally revealed marked inhibition of its growth only in the media with water extract over the concentration of 10mg/ml in the mediurn, and the critical fungistatic dilution was 20 mg/ml. We could not identified the principal fraction in the water extract of C.C.F.which exhibited antifungal activity. In the comparison of the critical fungistatic dilution with the alcohol extract of Zanthoxylum piperaturn Fructus and Fennel oil, water extract of C.C.F. required tenfold higher concentration for the same effect. However in regarding the utilizing habits of C.C.F. in horne medicine, as topical wet dressing with water boiled solution, we might expect its effect practically. iVow there are problems to be investigated about the chemical natures and physical properties of the C.C.F. and for the antifungal fractions of it, in addition further in vivo study we thought would be interesting.

It is obvious that the examination of nerve conduction as a diagnostic tool is a relatively new field of interest with a state of still undergoing evaluation and improvement. Problems of technique and interpretation notwithstanding, determination of nerve conduction has progressed to a level where it is now used routinely as a part of the electrodiagnostic examination. The present study has been undertaken to determine the normal range of the motor nerve conduction velocity, distal motor latency, amplitude of the muscle action potentials, sensory nerve conduction velocity, distal sensory latency, amplitude and duration of the sensory nerve action potentials of median and ulnar nerves in healthy Korean. One hundred twenty healthy subjects (sixty male and sixty female) were examined. Their ages ranged from 5 to 69 in years and the subjects were arranged in three age groups of 5–9 years, 10–49 years and 50–69 years. The results obtained were as follows: l. In median nerve, mean values for motor nerve conduction velocity, distal motor latency, and amplitude of the muscle action potantials were 56.57± 4.55 (45.2–69.4) m/sec, 3.02±0.48 (1.6–4.5) msec, and 14.2±5.0 (4–28) mV, respectively. 2. In ulnar nerve, mean values for motor nerve conduction velocity, distal motor latency, and amplitude of the muscle action potentials were 58.60±5.06 (43.5–71.4) m/sec, 2.35±0.50 (1.3–4.1) msec, and 11.7±3.7(4–22) mV, respectively. 3. In median nerve, mean values for sensory nerve conduction velocity, distal sensory latency, amplitude and duration of the sensory nerve action potentials were 63.50±5.63 (53.1–75.9) m/sec, 2.37±0.38 (1.0–3.4) msec, 45.5±16.9 (13–120)u V, and 1.68±0.29 (0.9–2.5) msec, respectively. 4. In ulner nerve, mean values for sensory nerve conduction velocity, distal sensory latency, amplitude and duration of the sensory nerve action potentials were 65.34±5.16 (50.6–78.1) m/sec, 2.09±0.38 (1.3–3.2) msec, 45.6±17.5 (12–118) uV, and 1.54±0.32 (0.8–2.5) msec, respectively. In comparison of the obtained values of two nerves. 5. A significant difference was observed between motor nerve conduction studies of the median and ulnar nerves. 6. A significant difference was observed between sensory nerve conduction studies of the median and ulnar nerves except amplitude of the sensory nerve action potentials. 7. Nerve conduction velocity was significantly faster in sensory nerve than in motor nerve. In comparison of conduction velocities among 3 age groups. 8. Motor nerve conduction velocity of the median and ulnar nerves was slow in age groups of 5–9 years and 50–69 years as compared with that of age group of 10–49 years. 9. Sensory nerve conduction velocity of median nerve was slow in age groups of 5–9 years and 50–69 years as compared with that of age group of 10–49 years, and sensory nerve conduction velocity of ulnar nerve was slow in age group of 50–69 years as compared with that of age groups of 5–9 years and 10–49 years.

A fracture of the femoral neck in a young adult differs from the same fracture in an older patient in the following respects; 1. A relatively uncommon injury. 2. A significant difference in the severity of trauma. 3. A less satisfactory result. At the point of view, we studied the femoral neck fcartures in 15, 20- to 50-year-old patients. The aims were to analyze why these fractures occur in young adults, and what results can be expected after internal fixation. The results were as follows; 1. Common in men (3:1). 2. 80% (12/15 cases) of the fractures were caused by severe trauma. 3. The 3 cases (20%) were associated with the other fractures. 4. The factors infuencing the clinical results and complications in our study; a. Severity of trauma. b. Degree of displacement. c. Existence of posterior comminution. d. Time interval between accident and operation. 5. The multiple pinning got the more rigid fixation and diminished the rate of fixation failure. 6. All cases were achieved good to acceptable reduction. 7. Satisfactory functional results were achieved in 93.3%. 8. The rate of avascular necrosis was 15.4% (2/13 cases). It is concluded that the most of femoral neck fractures in younger patients occur because of the significant trauma. In our study, the incidence of avascular necrosis was not greater than in order patients. Therefore, to get as good a result as possible it seems important to perform the anatomical tion and rigid internal fixation with or without bone graft.

Gastric bezoars are large masses or concretions, composed with plant fiber, hair and miscellaneous foreign bodies, found in the stomach and occur usually as sequele of gastric surgery. We experienced 2 cases of fat bezoars which developed after drinking of melted beef fst. They had postprandial epigastric fullness and pain, those were relieved on supine and left recumbent position. Upper gastrointestinal series showed a large movable mass in the stomach in hoth cases. On gastrofibercopic examination, a large egg sized white bezoar was cordirmed in both cases and a gastrie ulcer at antrum associated in one case. In attempt to removal of the bezoars, we tried to break them, but failed because of its character. The patients were treated with pancreatic lipase containg digestives, Pancreon-F and Azintal. From one day after this treatment, symptoms were completely relieved. Five days later, we confirmed disappearance of bezoars by gastrofiberscopy. and upper gastrointestinal barium
