Bowens disease is generally regarded as a premalignant dermatosis. If untreated, 3% to 5% of patients may develop squamous cell carcinoma. However, sebaciou carcinoma arising from Bowens disease is very rare. We presented a case of quarnous cell carcinoma and sebaceous circ s disease in a 68 year-old male. He had multiple bowenoid skin lesi nsties. A bean-sized nodule as developed on the bowenoid lesion of the he had a large yellow crust.ed exudative tumor on the Rt. thigh. We took a biopsy specimen of these three discrete lesions. The nu lipid stain of frozen section revealed Bowens disease, squarnous concllnoma arising from Bowen on the trunk and extremi Rt. lower abdomen. Almost of routine histology and carcinoma, and sebaceous carcinoma, respectively.

Holter ECG monitoring is a continuous tape recording of a patient's electrocardiogram during ordinary activities and picks up hidden abnormalities in rate, rhythm or conduction. The authors delineated the types and incidence rates of arrhythmia in 32 normal Koreans by utilizing medical personnels and patients without evident heart diseases or symptoms, or significant systemic illness. Tracings and analysis were performed using 24 hour Holter monitoring processor(SCM 240, Fukuda, japan), auto-analyser (SCM-25), casette recorder(SM 24) and chrome tape. Results are as follows: 1) Portable 24 houre Holter ECG monitoring was performed in 32 persons(age range of 21 to 35) without cardiovascular disease, as defined by normal clinical and noninvasive cardiovascular examination. 2) During exercise, maximal heart rates ranged from 125.0+/-12.1/min and minimal rates from 96.7+/-5.8/min. During normal activity period, maximal and minimal heart rates were, respectively, 95.4+/-16.2/min and 62.6+/-6.3/min. Maximal sleep rates were 90.3+/-26.6/min and minimal sleep rates 57.4+/-12.4/min. 3) P-R interval decreased as heart rate increased. Transient first degree AV block was noted in 3 subjects(9.4%) and Wenckebach type second degree AV block in 2 subjects(6.3%). 4) Sinus tachycardia and bradycardia were observed in all subjects and sinus arrhythmia was more frequently noted during waking periods. Three subjects had episodes of sinus pause with maximum duration of 3.24 seconds. 5) In 13 persons(40.6%) having supraventricular premature beats, the frequency was 50.01+/-49.36/hr and in 14 persons having(44%) ventricular premature beats the frequency 26.33+/-18.83/hr. Transient ventricular tachycardia of 3 seconds' duration was observed in one subject under the extreme stressful environment. 6) ST segment elevation over 1mm was noted in 5 subjects(15.6%), of whom one had a nocturnal chest pain and ST segment depression over 1mm in 2 subjects. T wave inversion was also found during exercise(3.1%) and during sleep(9.4%).

This experiment was aimed to investigate the contractile responses of the fermoral artery to the electrical stimulation and the inhibitory effects of verapamil and papaverine on the electrical stimulation of the fermoral artery in the control (n=46) and the diabetic rabbits(n=40). Diabetic rabbits were made by and administration of alloxan (100 mg/kg) intravenously and sacrified 8 weeks later. Femoral arterial rings 3 mm in length were taken and mounted on the force-displacement transducer for the measurements of isometric tension. All experiments were done in the aerated (95% O2 with 5% CO2)biological chamber filled with Kreb's solution and the initial tension of 1.5g was applied to the rings. After 1 hour of equilibrium of the rings, the contractile responses of the electrical stimulation on the femoral arterial rings were taken without vasoactive drugs and then, under verapamil and papaverine solution. And we compared the morphologic findings of the vessels in the two groups in relation to the functional changes by transmission electron miroscopy. The results are as follows: 1. The contractile responses in the presence of verapamil or papaverine solutions to the electrical stimulation were lowed significantly in the fermoral arterial rings of the diabetic rabbits compared with that of the control rabbits (verapamil; 10M~10M: p<0.01, papaverine; 10M & 10M: p<0.01). 2. Transmission electron microphotographs showed many morphological differences of the femoral arteries between the control and the diabetic rabbits. These were irregularities of the internal elastic lamina and the hypertrophy of the cytoplasms of the smooth muscle cells. And also, there were many vacuoles in the cytoplasm of the endothelial cells, lateral to the internal elastic laminaes, and between the smooth muscle cells in the diabetic rabbit femoral artery. By this study, we found that the contractile responses of the femoral arterial rings to the electrical stimulation were decreased in the diabetic rabbits, and the vasodiatory effects of verapamil and papaverine on the electrically stimulated femoral arterial rings were also lowered in the diabetic rabbits compared with the control rabbits. These changes of the vasular responses of the diabetic vessel may be associated with morphological changes manifested by transmission electron microscopy or any other functional derangement of the vessels.

Dental restorative materials must have the physical properties to withstand wear and corrosion. Base metal alloys possess better mechanical properties and lower price than the gold alloys. For these reason such alloys have largely replaced the precious metal alloys. One aspect to consider is the release of metal substances to oral environment. The release of elements from dental alloys is a continuing concern because the elements may have the potentially harmful biological effects on local tissue. The purpose of this study was to minimize metal release on the nonprecious metal surfaces by ion bea assisted deposition(IBAD) of titanium nitride (TiN). Ni-Cr-Be alloys with and without TiN coatings were secured in an wear test machine opposing ruby ball to determine their relative resistance to wear with 100m, 200m, 300m and 400m sliding distance. And the corrosion behavior of the Ni-Cr-Be alloys with and without TiN coating and 3 dental noble alloys have been studied. Potentiodynamic curves were used to analyse the corrosion characteristics of the alloys. The measurement of the released Ni and Ci ions was conducted by analysis of the electrolyte solution with atomic absorption spectroscopy. The results were as follows : 1. The critical sliding distance that wore down TiN coating of 2.5micrometer thickness in this study condition was 300m. 2. Ion beam assisted deposition of TiN showed a good surface modification with respect to the properties of wear and corrosion resistance. 3. X-ray diffraction showed that the strongest peak of TiN(111) in the coatings. 4. The release of Ni and Cr ions from alloys measured by means of atomic absorption spectroscopy was reduced by ion beam assisted deposition of TiN.

Normal C3H/HeN strain mice exposed to low-dose ultraviolet radiation(4 * 400 J/m) demonstrated a reduction in contact sensitization potential which locaiized to the skin area of direct UVR exposure(local suppression), where high-dose exposure of UVR(1*30.000 J/m) caused systemic suppression of CH induction, regardless of the application site of 2,4-dinitro-l-fluorobenzene(DNFB). There seemed to be two different mechanisms that are responsible for CH reaction induced by UVR. One of them, local suppression of low-dose UVR resulted from blocking the afferent phase of immune response by the functiona] inactivation of the epidermal Langerhans cells ; it was associated with lack of CH effector cells in the peripheral lymph nodes, an enhanced splenic suppressor cell acitvity, and could not be reversed by indomethacin treatment. The other, systemic suppression of high-dose UVR was mediated by enhancement of prostaglandin E(PGE); it was associated with prevention of the egress of effector cells within the regional lymph node which was caused by blocking the efferent lymphatics, and elevated plasma level of PGE. And depressed CH response was reversed when treated by indomethacin.
