2.Multiple Symmetric Lipomatosis (Cervical Lipomatosis): Two cases report.
Korean Journal of Pathology 1988;22(4):484-488
Multiple symmetric lipomatosis is a rare disease and affects almost exclusively middle aged man, usually with a background of excessive a alcohol intake. The disease is characterized by progressive growth of subcutaneous fat masses which are located symmetrically at neck, shoulders, chest, abdomen and groin, and which subsequently penetrate deeply into the surrounding spaces and structures with symptomatic compression of deep organs, such as trachea. A recent survey revealed a high incidence of sometic and autonomic neuropathy. The exact cause of the disease is not known, but a hyperplastic mechanism has been postulated, with in vitro studies demonstrating a defect in adrenergic-stimulated lipolysis of lipomatous tissue. We have experienced two cases of multiple symmetric lipomatosis. Case 1 was a 59-year-old male, complaining of slowly enlarging doughunt ring-shaped mass at his neck. He had a habit of excessive alcohol intake for many years. The subcutaneous mass at the neck was excised. The pathology report described the specimen as "normal adipose tissue". Case 2 was a 49-year-old male, complanining of slowly enlarging multiple symmetric masses at the neck, shoulders, chest, abdomen, flank and groin over a period of 6 years. He also complained of mild muscular weakness. He had a habit of excessive alcohol intake for many years. The subcutaneous mass in the neck was excised. The specimen had a tendency to form globular masses and microscopically indistinguishable from mature adipose tissue.

5.Studiedies on the Pollution Bacteria in the River Water of Baek Ma.
Korean Journal of Preventive Medicine 1974;7(1):175-176
The purpose of this study was to survey bacteria which was known as a fecal bacteria living in the human and animal gastro and intestinal tract. The colony density of the fecal coliform and fecal streptococci was 280 and 130 in 100ml sample amounts respectively. Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa which is usually exist in swimming pool and was known as indicator of the pool water contamination was detected.

A clinical observation in 8 cases of multiple laminectomies under the age of 16 years who had been followed for more than 3 years was carried out to analyze deformities and its results of treatment, and the following results were obtained. 1. Spinal deformities were developed in 5 cases-4 kyphosis and 1 lordosis. 2. The kyphosis was developed in 1 case at cervical spine, 1 at thoracic, 1 at thoracolumbar junction and 1 at lumbar, and the lordosis was developed in 1 case at lumbar spine. 3. Anterior interbody fusion was carried out on two cases of kyphosis who had severe pain and neurological symptoms and posterolateral spinal fusion was carried out on one case of lumbar lordosis, with satisfactory results in all cases. 4. Since the incidence of spinal deformities following multiple laminectomies in children is high, laminectomy should be performed only when it is definitely indicated, and when it is done, damage to the posterior complex should be minimized. 5. For the prevention and treatment of the spinal deformities, brace or close observation should be necessary postoperatively, and spinal fusion should be performed in increasing or severe deformities.

PURPOSE: This study was done to examine the relation of uncertainty, uncertainty appraisal, and self-management in patients undergoing hemodialysis, and to identify factors influencing self-management. METHODS: A convenience sample of 92 patients receiving hemodialysis was selected. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire and medical records. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlations and multiple regression analysis with the SPSS/WIN 20.0 program. RESULTS: The participants showed a moderate level of uncertainty with the highest score being for ambiguity among the four uncertainty subdomains. Scores for uncertainty danger or opportunity appraisals were under the mid points. The participants were found to perform a high level of self-management such as diet control, management of arteriovenous fistula, exercise, medication, physical management, measurements of body weight and blood pressure, and social activity. The self-management of participants undergoing hemodialysis showed a significant relationship with uncertainty and uncertainty appraisal. The significant factors influencing self-management were uncertainty, uncertainty opportunity appraisal, hemodialysis duration, and having a spouse. These variables explained 32.8% of the variance in self-management. CONCLUSION: The results suggest that intervention programs to reduce the level of uncertainty and to increase the level of uncertainty opportunity appraisal among patients would improve the self-management of hemodialysis patients.
