A 23-year-old medical student showed a positive reaction on a skin test for Paragonimus westermani, and two Tarsonemus floricolus mites were subsequently found by sputum examination and identified morphologically. Our report is the first human case of Tarsonemus floricolus in Korea.

The non-surgical treatment for the fresh humeral shaft fracture would appeared to be not sufficient in respect of immobilization and maintenance of the contact surface of the fracture ends, which have had stimulated surgeons to perform internal fixation. This might be one of the reasons to produce non-union of humeral shaft fracture, supplemented by increasing incidence of fractures due to car and machinary accident. Authors have experienced 18 cases of non-union of humeral shaft fracture and accomplished solid union in all cases by osteosynthesis accompanied by autogenous bone graft. In detail: 1. Non-union was prevalent in the agr group of 20 to 40 and mostly in male. Site of non-union was found mostly at the lower 2/3. 2. The cause of the fracture was mainly due to the car and machinary accident. Initial treatments were surgical in 14 out of 18 cases, and 12 cases of this surgically treated group were treated within 2 days after the injury. 3. On retrospective analysis of medical records and X-ray films, probable cause of the non-union were supposed to be too early performed inadequate internal fixation and post-operative infection in the operated cases, whereas distraction of fracture ends due to poor external fixation and infection in the cases treated conservatively. 4. 16 cases of established non-union were treated by authors with rigid internal fixation and additional bone graft, and 1 case with bone graft only. 5. Authors have utilized shoulder spica or long arm cast post-operatively for 1 to 4 months. 6. Union was obtained in all cases. Developed transient radial nerve palsy in 4 cases; and neighbouring joints contracture in 2 cases, which required considerable time of physical therapy.

Contrast arteriography and phlebography remain the standard diagnostic techniques for evaluation of peripheral arterial and venous diseases. However, invasive angiographic techniques involve expense, time, discomfort, and potential risks to the patient which preclude their use as routine screening and followup procedures. In order to obtain accurate, objective information to complement the clinical diagnosis of peripheral vascular diseases, many noninvasive diagnostic techniques have recently become available to the clinican. Among these techniques, photoplethysmograph (PPG), strain gauge plethysmograph (SPG), and doppler ultrasound were adopted for our study. Fourty young volunteers were studied as a control group, and twenty peripheral vascular disease patients were studied as a patient group. We obtained average values of PPGa, blood flow, maximum PRT venous reflux folw (MVRF), maximum venous outflow (MVOF), pulse reappearance time (PRT), PRT/2 and pulsatility idex(PI) for control group. Results for patient group were analysed and compared with those of control group. 1. Normal PPGa wave has a steep upslope, a relatively narrow peak, and a dicrotic wave on the downslope which is concave toward the baseline. PPGa reflected skin blood flow sensitively than any other technique. 2. Average forearm blood flow by means of SPG was 5.7±2.0, and that of calf was 3.7±1.4ml/min/100cc tissue. MVOF of forearm was 32.9±10.4, and that of calf was 18.0±7.0ml/min/100cc tissue. Blood flow measurement was not useful for detection of arterial occlusive disease, but MV OF was useful for diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis. 3. PRT, PRT/2, over shooting reaction time by means of SPG have low diagnostic value and PI by means of doppler ultrasound was useful for localization of arterial narrowing or obstruction. 4. Noninvasive diagnostic techniques including PPG, SPG and doppler ultrasound are useful for screening and follow-up procedures in diagnosis of peripheral vascular disease. They are also valuable to supplement angiographic or physical findings.

The association between blood lead children and Intelligent Quotient(IQ) was investigated in a sample of l00 boys and girls aged 6-8 years from one primary school within an industrial area of Pusan. The trained undergraduates in school of public health administered an I.Q. test one by one. Parents answered a questionnaire on demographic, perinatal and socioeconomic variables. Atomic Absorbtion spectrophotometer was used to determine blood lead levels. The geometric mean of blood lead value was 7.99 microgram/dl. In total children, there was no significant relationship between blood lead level and I.Q. But in the children who were born of gestational age of less than 38 weeks, children with higher levels of blood lead performed more poorly on I.Q. test with correlation coefficient from -0.68 to -0.71. But, the children who were born of gestational age of 38 weeks and more were same as total children. These results suggest that exposure to low levels of lead in the children who were born premature probably may result in impaired intelligent development. But, we think that more profound study should be performed with sufficient numbers of subjects.

The occurrence of the small intestinal adenocarcinoma is infrequent and the primary adenocarcinoma of the jejunum is rare. The survival of adenocarcinoma of the small bowel does not improve over the past three decades. Although symptoms appeared to be of long duration, most patients were diagnosed with advanced disease. All reports agree that these tumors are difficult to achieve good examination of the small bowel by both clinician and radiologist, so it cause a significant delay in diagnosis. The survival of these tumors appear to correlate with stage at presentation, and therefore early and aggressive diagnostic intervention seems to improve the outlook. We report a case of primary jejunal adenocarcinoma assoeiated with iron deficiency anemia with literatures review.
