A retrospective comparative study of MRI and CT in 24 patients with diffuse axonal injury (DIA) was undertaken. Three-quaters of the lesions were non-hemorrhagic, and the sites of involvement were lobar white matter (96%), corpus callosum (70%), and rostral brainstem (42%), in descending order. MRI was singnificantly more sensitive than CT in detecting DAI lesions. The average number of DAI lesions was higher with increasing clinical stage of the injury. MRI is more valuable than CT for staging the full magnitude of the injury and in predicting the neurologic prognosis of DAI lesions.

BACKGROUND: Glycolic acid has become an important and popular agent for chemical peel. Even though many clinicians perform superficial chemical peel to treat facial acne with glycolic acid, as yet there has been no well-controlled clinical trinls for the comparison of this new peeling agent and Jessner's solution. OBJECTIVE: To compare these two chemical peelI agents, our study was focused on three aspects : 1) treatment effects (acne improvement), 2) side effects (erythema, exfoliation), 3) patients preferences of the treatments. METHOD: Sixteen patients with facial acne vulgaris were treated with 70% glycolic acid and Jessner's solution on each side of the face simultaneously. Treatments were repeated biweekly with acne grading. Patient's subjective preferences were asked after the treatment.

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study is to evaluate effects of patients' age, amenorrhea duration, motivation, purpose, regimen, side effects on compliance to hormone replacement therapy(HRT) Methods: Compliance to HRT was assessed in 258 postmenopausal women who began HRT in the Menopause Clinic of Hangang Sacred Heart Hospital, Hallym university. One hundred sixty nine women who had intact uterus received continuous combined therapy with 0.625 mg of conjugated equine estrogen (CEE) and 100 mg of micronized progesterone. Eighty nine women who were hysterectomized received only 0.625 mg of CEE. RESULTS: A total of 103 women (39.9%) reported that they continued HRT at least for one year. Continuation of HRT was significantly more common among women who started HRT becuase of recommendation by gynecologist after hysterectomy in our department (p< 0.05). A greater percentage of women who received only CEE without uterus continued HRT than women who received continuous combined therapy (p< 0.05). Duration of amenorrhea, reasons for taking HRT and side effects such as irregular bleeding or breast tenderness were not related to the continuation of HRT. CONCLUSION: Education of menopausal women about the benefit/risk and side effects of HRT may be critical in improving compliance.

The antihypertensive effect of trimazosin was studied in 24 cases of essential hypertension, which include 9 cases with pretreatment diastolic pressure of 114mmHg or more, for a period of 4 weeks. The average pretreatment systolic and diastolic blood pressures were approximately 175mmHg and 114mmHg, respectively. The treatment was started with 100mg of trimazosin daily in 2 divided doses and and the drug was titrated upward at weekly interval by 100mg up to 400mg/day depending on the response of the blood pressures. Routine blood counts, urinalyses, liver and kidney function tests, electrolyte balance, total serum cholesterol and triglyceride were determined before and at the end of treatment. The diastolic blood pressure fell 10mmHg or more in 20 out of 24 cases(83.3%), and in 12 cases out of 20 favorable responders it fell to 90mmHg or below. The pretreatment diastolic blood pressure in 4 nonresponders was all 115mmHg or more. The antihypertensive effect appeared during the first week of therapy and progressively increased until the end of treatment week without causing postural hypotension. Unpleasant symptoms appeared in 12 cases during treatment, which include dizziness, headache, numbness in the extremities and tinnitus in the decreasing order of frequency. However, these symptoms were mild and transient in all cases disappearing spontaneously despite continued medication. No significant biochemical changes in the blood were recorded after treatment. We conclude that trimzosin seems to be a safe and effective antihypertensive drug particularly useful for the treatment of mild to moderate hypertension.

A case of clear cell adenocarcinoma arising in the female urinary bladder, which is accompanied by endometriosis of the urinary bladder and the uterus, is reported. The carcinoma protruded into the vesical lumen as a fungating mass, and had a tubulocyotic pattern. The tumor cell had intracytoplasmic glycogen and electron microscopically short microvilli on their surface, resembling clear cell acenocarcinoma of the female genital tract including ovary. This is the fourth case report of clear cell adenocarcinoma complicating vesical endometriosis, and may support the view that clear cell carcinome arises from endometriosis which, in turn, from the Mullerian remnant.
