5.Bowel perforation associated sunitinib therapy for recurred gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumor.

Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is the most common mesenchymal neoplasm of the gastrointestinal tract. Several recent findings that there are activating mutations in the KIT and PDGFRA (platelet-derived growth factor receptor-alpha) genes of GISTs provide the rationale for using targeted therapies such as imatinib or sunitinib. Sunitinib, an oral multitargeted receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor that inhibits kinases such as KIT, PDGFR (platelet-derived growth factor recepter), and VEGFR (vascular endothelial growth factor receptor), was recently approved for the treatment of imatinib-refractory GIST. Sunitinib is generally well tolerated and has an acceptable toxicity profile; an adverse event such as bowel perforation is rare. We present a patient with imatinib-refractory GIST who was successfully treated using sunitinib, but developed bowel perforation. The mechanism involved in bowel perforation associated with sunitinib is unknown. However, we presume that in our patient, the dramatic reduction in disseminated peritoneal metastases and bowel invasion of recurrent GIST during sunitinib treatment might have resulted in the bowel perforation.

7.Factors affecting patients decision-making for dental prosthetic treatment.
The Journal of Korean Academy of Prosthodontics 2008;46(6):610-619
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Factors affecting patients' decision-making for dental prosthetic treatment should be examined in terms of understanding improving patients' oral health. PURPOSE: The main purpose of this dissertation was to investigate patients' dental prosthetic treatment and factors affecting patients' decision-making for dental prosthesis treatment in Deagu and Gyungbook areas. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This study was based on the preliminary survey of dental patients conducted from July 1 to August 31 in 2006. A total of 700 questionnaires had been distributed and 640 were collected. 629 questionnaires were used for the statistical analysis. Descriptive and inferential statistics, such as frequencies, cross tabulation analysis, correlation analysis, logistic regression analysis, and multiple regression analysis were introduced. In the multiple regression analysis and logistic regression analysis, twenty-two independent variables were employed to explore the factors which have impacts on decision-making and satisfaction. RESULTS: The results of this dissertation are as follows: Logistic regression analysis turned out that monthly income, age, degree of expectation, marital status, and employer-insured policy of national insurance statistically increased the odds of decision-making of dental prosthesis treatment. But educational attainment decreased the odds ratio of the decision-making of dental prosthesis treatment. However, the rest independent variables do not have statistically significant impacts on the decision-making of dental prosthesis treatment CONCLUSION: Among independent variables, marital status had the most significant influence on the decision making of dental prosthesis treatment. Finally, suggestions for the future study and policy implications to improve satisfaction of the patients' dental prosthetic treatment were discussed.

BACKGROUND: The fast EMS helicopter was introduced to Korea in 1996 and from Dec. 1. 1997, it was used far transporting emergent patients. Authors, here upon, report the transporting experiences. METHODS: From Dec. 1, 1996 to Dec. 31,1997, Samsung Medical Centers EMS helicopter was used for air evacuation of critically ill patients. The patients data prospectively analyzed. RESULT: A total of 65 patients were transported. Male to female ratio was 1.95 : 1. The mean transport time was 64.1min(10-160 min). Majority of the evacuated patients was surgical patients (General Surgery'16, Orthopedic surgery : 10, Neurosurgery : 6, Infernal medicine 13, Pediatrics : 3, and others : 3). Twenty-one of the 65 patients transported were admitted to ICU and 31 did not require ICU care. During the air evacuation, one physician and one nurse trained for air evacuation amended The patients. No medical problems or deaths developed during the air evacuation period. CONCLUSION: The first EMS helicopter was introduced to Korea in 1996. From Dec. 1, 1996 to Dec. 31, 1997, Samsung Medical Center's EMS helicopter was used for air evacuation of critically ill patients. The patients data reported.

9.Factors Influencing the Fear of Falling in Elderly in Rural Communities.
Journal of Agricultural Medicine & Community Health 2011;36(4):251-263
OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to examine the factors associated with fear of falling among the elderly dwelling in rural communities. METHODS: From February 1, 2010 to March 31, 2010, a questionnaire-based survey was sent to 2,628 persons 65 years or older dwelling in 1 Myeon and 1 Eup of Gyeongsangnam-do. Among these participants, 735 (27.9%) had fallen more than once in 2009. For data analysis, descriptive statistics and hierarchical multiple regression were performed using SPSS version 12.0. RESULTS: Factors influencing the fear of falling in the elderly according to falls experienced were number of outpatient visits, number of falls, gender, admission, purchasing of health function foods, and activities of daily living. Overall, the study showed significant differences in the score of fear of falling according to gender, age, education, marital status, living arrangement, main means of mobilization, drinking, income, number of falls, admission, number of outpatient visits, experience with outpatient oriental medicine, purchasing of health function foods, medical assistance devices, season, fall location, fall cause, shoe type, injury type, limitation of activity, and activities of daily living. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study suggest that programs should be developed specifically for elderly people who have experienced more than one fall because of increased fear due to multiple falls.

The azygous anterior cerebral artery (ACA) is a rare type of ACA anomaly. In the conventional angiography, cognition of its realm is difficult without considerable reading. Clinically, misreading its nature causes confusion during the surgical approach to its associated cerebral aneurysm. We report this rare clinical experience with an angiographic and surgical review.
