3.Dermatological Signs of Systemic Diseases.
Journal of the Korean Medical Association 2002;45(3):309-322
The skin is the most visible and easily accessible organ of the body. Therefore, as a readily available indicator, it can give a clue to many underlying systemic diseases ; it has great diagnostic implications, serving as a window to the diseases affecting the internal organs. Recognition of dermatological manifestations of systemic diseases is practically important for all practicing clinicians. In many instances, the recognition of the skin signs of systemic diseases should minimize the cost of diagnostic testing. Generally, skin symptoms are quite commonly associated with systemic disease. Various skin manifestations have been observed in patients with either benign of malignant systemic diseases, and they often give a clue to or confirm the underlying diseases. This lecture summarizes the cutaneous manifestations and specific skin signs that help to differential diagnoses of systemic diseases.

4.Ultrastructure of the integument of adult Clonorchis sinensis.
The Korean Journal of Parasitology 1968;6(3):111-122
Ultrastructural studies on the integument of digenetic trematodes were investigated by several workers (Senft et al., 1961; Bjorkman and Thorsell, 1964; Burton, l966; Erasmus, l968; Morris and Threadgold, 1967, l968). Clonorchis sinensis is a common parasite of human beings in the Far East. But as far little has been written on ultrastructure of the integument of this parasite. This study was carried out systematically to elucidate the ultrastructure of the integument of adult C. sinensis, and the results are summarized as follows: The integument of C. sinensis was organized in two parts; the epidermis and the muscular layer. The apical surface and basal surface of the epidermis were covered with typical plasma membrane and irregularly invaginated from the surface. Plasma membrane at perisuckers was extremely folded and appeared as if the epidermis might be divided with the layer. The syncytial epidermis contained mitochondria and numerous secretory bodies, and which was connected by cytoplasmic processes to nucleated epidermal cells lying in the parenchyma. The mitochondriae, the secretory bodies, the granular endoplasmic reticulum, the Golgi bodies and the free ribosomes were present in the perinuclear cytoplasm of epidermal cells, but no organelle was observed in processes of epidermal cell except some secretory bodies. The fibrous layer consists of argentophile fiber and collagenous fiber, in which the circular muscle bundles and longitudinal muscle bundles were embedded. Bundles of muscle fiber are weIl developed at the perisucker, and mitochondriae in this portion contain many cristae as compared with any other parts of C. sinensis.

7.Bioequivalence Test and Its Significance.
Journal of the Korean Medical Association 2002;45(1):65-72
Bioequivalence is defined as the absence of a significant difference in the rate and extent to which the active ingredient or active moiety in pharmaceutical equivalents or pharmaceutical alternatives becomes available at the site of drug action when administered at the same molar dose under similar experimental conditions in either a single dose or multiple doses in an appropriately designed study. If a drug is to be bioequivalent to the reference drug, the confidence interval for both pharmacokinetic parameters, AUC(area under the plasma concentration-time curve) and Cmax(maximal plasma concentration), must be entirely within the 80% to 125% of those of the reference drug. Underlying the concept of bioequivalence is the thesis that, if a drug product contains a drug substance that is chemically identical and is delivered to the site of action at the same rate and extent as another drug product, then it is equivalent and can be substituted for that drug product. The primary concern from the regulatory point of view is the protection of the patient against approval of products that are not bioequivalent. In this paper the general concept and the practical significance of the bioequivalence is described. The recently revised Korean guideline for bioequivalence test is also discussed.
