2.Effect of a Rostral Basal Forebrain Lesion on Neuropeptide Containing Neurons in the Rat Cerebral Cortex.
Korean Journal of Anatomy 1997;30(1):79-86
The present study was designed to elucidate the effects of rostral basal forebrain lesions on neuropeptide containing neurons in the cerebral cortex. Nine male Sprague-Dawley rats[250-300gm] received bilateral injections of ibotenic acid into the basal forebrain[A : +0.7mm, L : 2.3mm, D : 8.6mm] and additional five served as sham operated animals. Brains were removed at 8-14 days after lesioning and frozen coronal sections of 40 micrometer thickness were made. Immunohistochemical staining was performed against the somatostatin[SOM], neuropeptide Y[NPY], and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide[VIP]. No differences were observed in the number of the SOM-immunoreactive[SOM-ir] or NPY-ir neurons between the lesioned and the control groups. Density of the NPY-ir fibers also did not show any significant difference between the two groups. In contrast, the number of VIP-ir neurons in the frontal cortex was significantly reduced following the basal forebrain lesioning. These results suggest the functional relationship between the basal forebrain and the cortical VIP-ir neurons.

4.A Case of Hemophilic Arthropathy due to A. H. G. Deficiency
The Journal of the Korean Orthopaedic Association 1970;5(3):115-119
One of the most important aspect of hemophilia is repeated bleeding into the joint. The frequency of such hemorrhages varies with the severity of the disease. In moderate or severe cases, repeated hemorrhages result in considerable impairment of joint structure and function: Contractures and gross deformity are frequent end result. This paper described a case of hemophilia A, 24-year-old male, who developed deformity of the shoulder, elbow, ankle and knee joint because of repeated hemoarthrosis. Author attempted to treat this patient by transfusion of fresh whole blood and traction, which resulted in some clinical improvement.

Journal of the Korean Geriatrics Society 2002;6(2):121-129
PURPOSE: This study performed to identify the association between various nutritional indices including biochemical, anthropometric variables and mortality in Korean elderly. METHODS: Among a total of 151,000 subjects over 40 years of living in Jung-up district, 1051 was selected using a random cluster sample method. Between Dec 1996 and Feb 1997, they underwent the blood tests and anthropometric measurements. Three years later, on Dec 2000, we investigated the mortality of the 340 subjects that had been over 65 years at the enroll time. RESULTS: Of the 1051 subjects(M:F=410:641), 340 were over 65 years at the enroll time, 34(10%) had died by 3 years follow up. After adjustment of age and sex, decreased Hb, Hct, serum protein, albumin, increased serum creatinine were significantly associated with an increased risk of mortality(p<0.05) among the variables. Especially serum albumin remained strong predictors of mortality after cont rolling for other significant variables(RR=0.15, 95% CI=0.03-0.63, p=0.01). CONCLUSION: We confirmed the strong independent association with serum albumin and mortality in the rural community dwelling ambulatory elderly Koreans.

Journal of the Korean Child Neurology Society 1998;6(1):133-137
The authors present a case of spontaneous discitis in a 1-year-old female who presented with fever and limping gait. The erythrocyte sediment rate was increased. The roentgenograms revealed normal appearnce, and radioactive bne scan showed increased uptake at the affected level. Discitis should be considered in any child with limping gait or leg pain, refusal to walk, or abdominal pain. Early recognition may avoid unnecessary diagnotic and treatment procedures.

Nodular pseudosarcornatous fasciitis is a benign, fibrohlastic proliferative disease. This case report is one of a hard nodule which a 35-year-old male suddenly discovered on his right forearm 10 days prior to being aeen. The nodule showed characteristic histological findings of nodular pseudosarcomatous fasciitis.

The introduction of the strong clover-leafed nail combined with the principle of reaming out the medullary canal and the development of image intensifiers has been extended the indications of the in tramedullary nailing. In this report, an attempt was made to introduce the method and to verify the indications and advantage of retrograde intramedullary nailing of humeral shaft fractures, as compared with the conventionally accepted methods.
