Kikuchi's disease is a self-limiting lymphadenitis, predomin;intly of young women who present with cervical lymphadenopathy. We present a case of Kikuchis disease in a 18-year-old female, representing multiple tender subcutaneous mass on her neck, left eyelid and posteriarcuricle. Histopathologically, the biopsied mass was a lymph node showing architectural effacement by necrotic focicomposed of nucear karyorrhexis and mononucl ar cell proliferation.

Background:
Prevention of chronic diseases such as hypertension and diabetes is important, but few studies have identified barriers to healthy lifestyle practices among adults in their 30-50s. Therefore, this study is intended to be used as basic data for establishing a prevention and control strategy for chronic diseases.
Methods:
This study is a qualitative content analysis study using the focus group interview methodology. According to the inductive content analysis method, data were analyzed through the steps of ‘making sense of the data and whole’, ‘open coding’, ‘grouping’, ‘categorization’, and ‘abstraction’.
Results:
The categories of barriers to healthy lifestyle practice were derived as follows. ‘Low interest in health care’ in the intrapersonal domain, ‘absence of an assistant’ in the interpersonal domain, ‘organizational environment in which it is difficult to a healthy lifestyle practice’ in the organizational domain, ‘lack of infrastructure’ and ‘restrictions on use of public health centers’ in the community domain.
Conclusions
For the prevention and management of chronic diseases, adults in their 30-50s should be encouraged to take an interest in healthy lifestyle practices and increase their will. For healthy lifestyle practice, it is necessary to allow family members and friends to participate as helpers. In addition, at work, employers should pay attention to workers' health management, adjust working hours, and reduce the burden of company dinner to create an organizational environment for healthy lifestyle practice. Lastly, infrastructure such as public sports facilities should be additionally expanded, and the contents of public health centers' programs should be promoted.

PURPOSE: This study was carried out to accumulate basic data for nursing intervention development by evaluating the stress and emotional status of patients and their families after receiving hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), illucidating and analysing related factors in order to decrease the negative effects of HSCT on their emotion. METHODS: Data were collected using a questionnaire to 53 HSCT patients and 50 families, who were older than 18 at tertiary-care institutions in Seoul, from January, 2000 to August, 2003. RESULTS: There was a significant score difference in stress (t=-2.302, p<0.05). Correlation between stress and emotional status was statistically significant (r=0.486, p<0.01; r=0, p<0.05). Economical burden of cost had significant effects on stress of patients (F=4.194, p<0.05). The series of emotional status of patients without jobs were higher (T=-2.583, p<0.05). The emotional status of families were influenced by monthly income (F=4.036, p<0.05) and patients' diagnosis (F=3.088, p<0.05). CONCLUSION: These results suggest that the cares for families should be considered with great concern as well as the ones for patients. In addition, such factors as economical burden by medical cost, monthly income and job status should not be excluded in transplantation nursing plans.

BACKGROUND: For atopic dermatitis (AD), the causal relationship between food and exacerbation is relatively weak in adults compared to children. However, many adult patients report food-related aggravation of AD, and some may have histamine intolerance. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of ingested histamine and investigate the effect of a histamine-free diet in adult patients with AD. METHODS: Adult patients with AD and healthy controls were enrolled. Patients were prohibited from eating foods with high amounts of histamine for 4 weeks. There were no diet restrictions for the controls. The eczema area and severity index (EASI) and degree of pruritus using the visual analogue scale (VAS) were evaluated. Plasma histamine levels and diamine oxidase (DAO) activity were determined, and compared with those of the control group. RESULTS: Seventeen adult patients were recruited and of these, 12 completed the 4-week histamine-free diet. There was no significant difference in the basal plasma histamine levels between the patients and controls. Basal DAO activity was significantly higher in patients compared to the controls. There was no significant difference in plasma histamine levels after the histamine free-diet and DAO activity was not altered. Moreover, EASI and VAS were similar before and after the histamine-free diet. CONCLUSION: Ingested histamine might be unrelated with AD severity and a histamine-free diet is unhelpful for adult patients with AD.

We report a case of multicystic mesothelioma in the visceral peritoneum anterior of the ascending colon. A 39-year-old female patient visited hospital with a palpabel tender mass in the right flank. An ultrasonogram showed multiple cystic mass lesions in the right flank and CT scan showed a multicystic rative mass with enhancing wall and septum in front of the ascending colon. The patient underwent explolaparotomy and the mass. which inpathology turned out to be a benign multicystic masothelioma, was removed.
