With the progress of farming and foresting, the demand of agricultural pesticide has been remarkably increased and accordingly, its intoxication has been widely publicized. Among the pesticides, organophosphorus chemicals has been believed to be almost nontoxic because they are not accumulative in the tissue. This study is attempted to examine the effects of DDVP which has been used most frequently on the kidney. And they were divided into normal and experimental groups. The results obtained from this experiment are as follows. 1) BUN, serum creatinine are increased in the group of DDVP administered while serum cholinesterase is suppresed significantly. 2) Microscopically, swelling and degeneration of tubular cells and hyaline casts in tubules. Ultrastructually swelling of mitochondria, partial fragmentation of cristae and electron dense bodies in the kidney are observed in the group of DDVP administered.

From 1960 through 1965, 39 cases with epileptic seizure caused by the Cystricercus cellulosae were experienced at Kaejong Mental Hospital, Okku-Gun, Chollapukdo province. The present study was carried on at the area of Chollapukdo province where Cysticercus cellulosae cases were frequently reported. Thrity-nine Cystricercus cellulosae cases(35 male and 4 female) with epileptic seizure visited Kaejong Mental Hospital . Okku-Gun, Chollapukdo during the years of 1960-1965 from various Gun(county): Okku-Gun 13, Kimje-Gun 7, and Soonchang-Gun 6. The high incidence was found at the age group of 20-49 years and the distribution of 214 subcutaneous nodules were as follows: Trunk 56.6 percent, upper extremities 26.6 percent, head and neck 9.3 percent, lower extremities 7.5 percent. According to the address of above 39 cases, taenia infestation of the inhabitants in the area was examined by questionaire form. Plain rural area (Maryong-Ri, Okku-Gun); Among 803 persons interviewed, 4.0 percent or 32 complained the output of Taenia segments. The male group showed higher incidence (6.4 percent) than the female(1.5 percent) . The highest incidence was observed at the age group of 30-39 years. Most of the inhabitants of the area had the eating habit of raw beef and pork. Mountainous rural area(Bok-Heung-Myun, Soonchang-Gun); Among 542 persons interviewed, 33 or 6.1 percent complained Taenia infection. The higher incidence was observed in the male group(8.7 percent) than in the female group(3.1 percent) , and also at the age group of 20-49 years. They had eating habit of raw beef and pork. The species of adult worm were identified by morphological examination. Totally 36 adult worms(Taenia saginata 21, T. solium 15) were obtained from 26 cases, and it was experienced that 5 T. solium were eliminated from one person.

PURPOSE: This study was performed to characterize the epidemiologic and clinical features of acute adenoviral lower respiratory tract infections. METHODS: Culture and indirect immunofluorescence for adenovirus was done with nasopharyngeal aspirates from patients with acute lower respiratory tract infections from April to September, 1996. Cultured virus was serotyped for type 3, 4, and 7a by neutralization test, and medical records were reviewed. RESULTS: Adenovirus was isolated from 29 of 187 (15.5%) patients. Monthly distribution from May to September, 1996 was 4, 17, 7, 0, and 1 case, respectively. Seventeen out of 18 cases serotyped (94.4%) were type 7. Male to female ratio was 21:8 and ranged in age from 1 month to 8 years with a mean of 22.6 +/- 22.5 months. Clinical diagnosis was pneumonia in 18, tracheobronchitis in 6, and bronchiolitis in 4 cases. The main clinical features were cough (100%), sputum (100%), fever (89%), pharyngeal injection (85%), increased ESR (76%) and CRP (64%), and leukocytosis (59%). Radiologic findings of chest, included consolidation (40.7%), parahilar peribronchial infiltration (22.2 %), pleural effusion (7.4%), and hyperaeration (3.7%). The mean duration of admission was 8.9 +/- 5.1 days and all the patients showed favorable clinical outcome without acute respiratory distress syndrome. CONCLUSION: There was a respiratory epidemic by adenovirus between May and July, 1996, and 17 out of 18 cases serotyped was type 7. All of the 29 patients with acute adenoviral lower respiratory tract infections improved without significant complication.
