Infectious disease consultation contributes to optimal antibiotic use as well as improved treatment outcomes in many infectious diseases, especially severe infections like bacteremia. However, communication and language matter in consultations between clinicians. Communication barriers are even more complex among professionals who speak Korean, since there are significant challenges for practicing medicine while relying on language translations. This review aims to address some of the components that should be included in infectious diseases consultations for Korean-speaking specialists.

A congenital salivary gland tumor, sialoblastoma, is extremely rare. A sialoblastoma of the parotid gland, occurring in a 28-week old fetus, is described. The histologic, immunohistochemical, and ultrastructural features of this tumor were studied. The tumor was characterized by solid nests or sheets of tumor cells intermingled with ductal structures lined by a columnar cells. Some of the tumor cells showed squamous differentiation. Immunohistochemically, these epidermoid cells reacted positively with anti-cytokeratin. But anti-S-100, anti- vimentin, anti-smooth muscle actin, anti-GFAP positive cells were not found. The ultrastructure was characterized by primitive epithelial cells. Although various names have been proposed, we favored the term "sialoblastoma". The histogenesis of this tumor is also discussed.

5.Epidermoid Cyst of the Testis Demonstrating Double Target Sign: A Case Report.
Korean Journal of Urology 2001;42(1):130-132
Epidermoid Cyst is a very rare benign neoplasm of the testis which represents about 1% of all testicular tumors. Ultrasonography findings of epidermoid cyst are so variable in reported cases that it is not eas y to diagnose preoperatively. The echogenecity of mixed echoic. it may show hyperechoic rim, and rarely shows target apperance. Target appearance may be a specific finding of epidermoid cyst, and it may be helpful to diagnose preoperatively. we describe a case of epidermoid cyst of the testis demonstrating double target sign on ultrasonography.

Nowadays administration of bone marrow transplantation is increasing state by developing society and high leukemia incidence. Decrease of relapse and infection rate result from chemo therapy drug development of treatment and strength. So we look for continuos development of treatment. But through before and after BMT, it takes several months by planing and HLA typing matching possibility of BMT. Also, it takes one or two month by duration of BMT and discharge. During BMT, patients experience emotional change-suggering, anxiety, depression and so on-due to changed body image and strictly isolation in special facility. After BMT, the patients also experience stress such as conditions self-care, support from family, concern of relapse risk and so far enlarge mental, economic and physical change surrounding them due to high cost. Accordingly nurses are required high quality of nursing attentive assesment, understanding of patient's environment and consideration, and teaching in administrative work. The study is attempted to establish nursing theory patients' experience in BMT treatment. Research method followed grounded theory methodology by strauss & Corbin. Subjects were 1 adolescent including highschool patient and 6 adults. This study continued from February 1996 through August 1996. All of these subjects were interviewed by this author. Interview were done by long interview technique and observation. Each interview took 1 hour to 2 hours Content of interview was recorded and transcribed later. The data thus collected were analyzed immediately after interviews and fed into the next round of interviews until the data collection reaches the saturation point. In the process of data analysis, "Terribleness" or "Miserableness" was found to be the core phenomenon. Results were composed to 103 concepts. These concepts were grouped into twenty four categories, and then to eleven categories. Categories include "physical burden", "economic burden", "mental distressing", "heartbreaking", "being gloomy", "horror", "being crushed", "feel oppressed", "being exhausted", "family dependent", "support", "previous data for procedure", "inclination", "exploding", "sharing", "mitigation", "bracing oneself", "becoming attached", "dependence", "thanks", "anxiety", and "abandonment". Patients with bone marrow transplantation were revealed to face "terribleness". Terribleness is found to be progressed through the cycle production-coping-solution. Fourteen hypotheses were derived from the integration of categories as follows ; (1) The stronger the term of suffering as perceived by the subjects, the stronger the "terribleness" will be. (2) The more excessive the degree of suffering as perceived by the subjects, the more excessive the "terribleness" will be. (3) If subjects have family dependent "terribleness" is expressed with abusement. (4) If subjects have no family dependent, "terribleness" will be expressed with exposure and suppressing. (5) The more abundant the sufficient support, "terribleness" will be expressed with exposure and suppressing. (6) The less abundant the sufficient support, "terribleness" will be expressed with abusement. (7) The more abundant the previous data, "terribleness" will be expressed with exposure and suppressing. (8) The less abundant the pervious data, "terribleness" will be expressed with abusement. (9) The more introvert the subject's inclination, "terribleness" will be expressed with exposure and suppressing. (10) The more extrovert the subject's inclination, "terribleness" will be expressed with abusement. (11) The more excessive the degree of "terribleness" will be expressed with abusement. (12) The less excessive the degree of "terribleness" it will be expressed with exposure and suppressing. (13) The more expressive the abusment, "terribleness" will be solved despair. (14) The more expressive the exposure and suppressing, "terribleness" will be solved with expectation. On the basis of the patterns that have the four these below were confirmed. 1. If patients felt large amount of terribleness because of severe suffering, they had family dependent. insufficient support, no previous data and their inclination was extrovert, "terribleness" is solved despair with abusement. 2. If patients felt large amount of terrible because of severe suffering family dependent, sufficient support, pervious data, and their inclination was introvert, "terribleness" is solved expectation with suppressing and exposure. 3. If patients felt small amount of terribleness because of little suffering, no family dependent, insufficient support, no previous data, and their inclination was extrovert, "terribleness" is solved despair with abusement. 4. If patients felt small amount of terribleness because of little suffering, no family dependent, sufficient support, previous data, and their inclination was introvert, "terribleness" is solved expectation with exposure and suppressing. On the basis of the above result, in orer to help nurses take good care of their patient, and understands patient's inclination and background, nursing assessment and intervention on life readjustment, and getting support should be required. It is expected that theoretical framework provided by this study, which shows how "terribleness" products, changes, increases and decrease. Therefore public relations, education, counseling emotional support, understanding inclination and exchange of information will have to be accomplished.

OBJECTIVES: Outbreaks of pneumonia caused by Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) occur every 3-4 years in Korea, most recently in 2011. The aim of our study was to determine the optimal time to perform indirect particle agglutination antibody assays to improve early diagnosis of MP pneumonia in children. METHODS: A database of 206 pediatric patients treated for pneumonia at the Hanyang University Hospital from June to October 2011 was analyzed retrospectively for demographic characteristics and laboratory test results. RESULTS: Among the 206 patients treated for pneumonia during the study period, there were 160 children (mean age, 5.44 years) diagnosed with MP pneumonia, who were studied further. The mean age of these MP pneumonia patients was 5.44 years. Antibody titers increased with increasing time between symptom onset and the collection of serum collection: MP titers were <1:640 for sera collected after 5.44 days and titers > or =1:640 for those collected after 8.58 days; P<0.001). Antibody titers were considered positive when they reached > or =1:640. In 42 MP pneumonia patients in whom there was a four-fold or greater increase in titer between successive serum samples, the optimal cut-off time-point for distinguishing between the initial and second titer groups was 7.5 days after the onset of symptoms (sensitivity, 90.5%; specificity, 92.9%). CONCLUSIONS: Negative MP antibody titers earlier than 8 days after the onset of symptoms in children with pneumonia may require repeating to confirm the diagnosis. This finding could optimize diagnosis and result in better therapeutic outcomes of MP pneumonia in children.

Oral mucositis continues to be a major complaint of patients who have chemotherapy for the acute leukemia. An innovative and inexpensive remedy which produces favorable results for those afficted is not yet introduced. So we tried to develop two oral care protocols for reducing the level of oral mucositis during cytotoxic therapy through literature review and our clinical experience. The one is sodium bicarbonate-normal saline gargling, and the other consists of chlorhexidine gargling. This quasi-experimental study was performed to compare the efficacy of these two different oral care protocols. Twenty subjects were assigned to one of the two specific diagnosis of leukemia, aim of the chemotherapy. The Oral Assessment Guide(OAG), the Beck's perception of oral comfort, WHO Grading system fot mucositis and the discomfort of oral gargling solution were used to assess oral status and subject's oral discomfort during chemotherapy. Each subjects were observed daily from the start of the chemotherapy until Absolute Neutrophil Count(ANC) reached 1,000. It continued about 2-4 weeks. The data analyzed by Mann-Whittney U test and ANCOVA. The result was follows as: The patient who used sodium bicarbonate-normal saline gargling showed significantly higher mean score of the discomfort of oral gargling solution than chlorhexidine gargling. The other scores were not significantly different between two groups. However the subjects using the sodium bicarbonate-normal saline gargling showed a lower level of oral mucositis. We concluded that oral using sodium bicarbonate-normal saline gargling was between to reduce the level of oral mucositis during chemotherapy and nursing assessments of the oral cavity seemed to promote patient's compliance with the oral care regimen.
