2.AVS(Audiovisual Stimulation)-Penogram.
Korean Journal of Urology 1988;29(3):459-469
In an effort to find more comprehensive and general diagnosis of erectile failure, we already have analysed 90 cases and reported the results. After that we added 199 more cases and performed a computer based analysis of total 289 cases in the dynamic changes of penile blood flow during natural physiologic erection after exposure to the audiovisual stimulation. The following results were obtained. 1. In normal volunteers, we were able to achieve uniform penogram findings in all cases with T.T.(Transit Time) ranging 1 to 3 minutes(mean 2.17 minutes), the EPT(Erection Persistent Time) over 30 minutes and no fluctuation phenomena after AVS. 2. Erectile failure group.(2.83 cases) (1) Group I.(108 cases; 38.2%). They demonstrated similar penogram features with the normal volunteers but EPT more than 5 minuets(mean 18.26 minutes) at least. most common causes were psychogenic origin(57 cases). (2) Group II.(175 cases ; 61.8%). Patients were showing abnormal penogram findings, and were divided into following 3 types. a) A type-Impossible type(10 cases ; 3.5%). They failed to show more than 2 fold increase in the maximal radioactivity after AVS when compared to the pre-stimuli level(mean 1.83 times). The underlying causes were identified to be arteriogenic and neurogenic. b) B type-Unstable type(124 cases ; 43.8%). They were unable to sustain erection due to fluctuation(mean 1.83 times). The underlying causes were psychogenic, vasculogenic and neurogenic origins. c) C type-Delayed type(41 cases ; 14.5%). They were showing T.T. more than 15 minutes(mean ; 23.71 minutes), and the underlying causes were arteriogenic, psychogenic and neurogenic origins. Based on these results, we have concluded that AVS-Penogram seems to the most appropriate diagnostic method for screening test and follow-up evaluation after vascular surgery. Through more clinical experience and investigation, and more comparison and analysis with other diagnostic methods, it will be a standard diagnostic approach in the future.

PURPOSE:To identify the main toxic gas released from salted radish in rice bran(Dan-Mu-Ji) and to introduce the radiological findings of the patient who was exposed to the gas. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Chest radiographs and CT scans of one survivor among three men who were exposed to the gas from Dan-Mu-Ji were reviewed. Gas obtained from the closed bottle containing Dan-Mu-Ji was analized by using the gas chromatography. RESULTS: The radiographic examinations of the survivor were suggestive of pulmonary edema with it's rapidly improving consolidations in both lung. The headspace gas within the bottle containing Dan-Mu-Ji was mainly composed with carbon dioxide, ethyl alcohol and hydrogen sulfide, of which hydrogen sulfide was considered the main toxic gas released. CONCLUSION: Under the anaerobic condition, Dan-Mu-Ji released toxic hydrogen sulfide. Inhalation of hydrogen sulfide might produce non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema.

Disodium cromoglycate(DSCG) has been widely used in the treatment of bronchial asthma and has become the prophylactic drug of choice in patients with mild-to-moderate asthma, because it has anti-allergic, anti-inflammatory and mast cell stabilizing properties. DSCG has been considered one of the safest medications among drugs for asthma treatment. The most common side effects are irritation of throat and dry mouth. Bronchospasm and chest tightness have been reported, but they were usually experienced by patients using spinhaler powdered capsules rather than metered dose inhalers (MDI). In this report, we presented a case of recurrent DSCG-induced bronchoconstriction with brief review of the literature. He had had an aspirin-induced asthma and had been well controlled with steroid inhalers and DSCG-MDI. After aspirin-bronchopro vocation test, he complained of chest discomfort and tightness immediately after inhaling DSCG-MDI. On serial monitoring of peak expiratory flow rate (PEER), there was a significant decline of PEER after two puffs inhalation of DSCG-MDI. Thus we performed DSCG-inhalation broncho provocation test with the nebulizer solution, which was pure DSCG without any addition of ingradients or propellants. This produced an early asthmatic reaction with more than 40% decline of FEV,. He was diagnosed as DSCG-induced bronchoconstriction and his clinical conditions were improved after avoidance of DSCG-MDI.

The determination of proliferative activity in the colorectal mucosa has been used for different purposes as the estimation of cancer risk and the assessment of disease activity in ulcerative colitis. But the prognostic significance of proliferative activity in colorectal carcinomas remains controversial. To investigate the prognostic significance of proliferative activity in colorectal carcinomas, the author estimated the proliferative activity immunohisto chemically using the monoclonal antibody PCNA and compared with clinicopathological data in 62 colorectal carcinomas. The results were as follows: 1) The reactivity of PCNA was more pronounced at the infiltrative margins of the tumors and tumor cells within the vascular or lymphatic channels. 2) The mean PCNA index of colorectal carcinomas was 40.5?0.4%. PCNA indices had positive correlations with lymph node invasion(p<0.05), liver, metastasis(p<0.05), Dukes' stage(p<0.01) and TNM classification(p<0.01), and didn't correlated with location of tumor, size of tumor, histological type and lymphtic or vascular invasion. 3) The patients with high PCNA index(more than 45%) represented higher recurrence or metastasis rate(37.5%) than those with low PCNA index (less than 45%)(19.3%) in Dukes B or C colorectal carcinomas during the follow-up periods, but not significant statistically. These results suggested that the reactivity of PCNA may be a useful prognostic factors in colorectal carcinomas.
