Leiomyoma is a benign solitary tumor which is originated from a smooth muscle cell and grows slowly. It is most commonly found in the uterus and can develop anywhere that smooth muscle is present, including esophagus, lower extremity, stroma of GI tract, and pleura. However, the occurrence of leiomyoma in the hand is so uncommon. We present one case of solid type leiomyoma found in the right 4th finger of a young woman.

BACKGROUND: The acute effect, of ethanol (EOH) include lowered blood pressure through peripheral vasodilation and decreased circulating blood volume. This study was aimed at examing the effects of EOH on the hemodynamic response to up and down head tilts. METHODS: Ten 21 to 23 year old male adults served as subjects. Each subject participated in both control and EOH experiments. In the EOH experiment, 3 mls of 25% EOH per liter of total body water was administered orally, 35 min were allowed for the blood EOH level to reach maximum before the tilt protocol was initiated. The tilt protocol consisted of 5 stages, each stage was 3-min in duration : supine (0 degrees)-head down tilt (HDT, 15 degrees)-supine (0 degrees)-head up tilt (HUT, 25 degrees)-supine (0 degrees). Hemodynamic parameters were measured with an impedance cardiograph (NCCOM3-R7, BoMed) with two electrodes placed around the neck and two around the thorax. Blood pressure (BP) was measured with an automatic sphygmomanometer (DATEX). Data was collected during every second half-minute throughout the duration of the protocol. RESULTS: In the control, HDT produced an increase in the end-diastolic index (EDI), the stroke index (SI), the cardiac index (CI), and the peak flow index (PFI) ; there were no significant changes in heart rate (HR), the systemic vascular resistance index (SVRI), and BP. In contrast, HUT resulted in a decrease in EDI, SI, EF, CI, and PFI and an increase in HR, SVRI, and BP ; the latter changes sugges a sympathetic overactivation. In the EOH experiment, the basal EDI, SI, and systolic BP were lower and HR was higher than in control. HDT and HUT caused similar changes as in control experiments. CONCLUSIONS: There results indicate that EOH cause volume depletion to result in reduced central blood volume and compensatory tachycardia. These EOH-induced changes were not altered by 15 degreeshead-down and 25 degreeshead-up tilts.

5.Sleep Problems in Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Sleep Medicine and Psychophysiology 2013;20(2):53-58
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is characterized by persistent deficits in social communication and restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior and interest. Sleep problems are not uncommon in children with autism spectrum disorders. Symptoms of insomnia are the most frequent sleep problems in individuals with ASD. Sleep problems can cause significant difficulties in the daily life of children with ASD and their families. Genetic factor, deregulations of melatonin synthesis, extraneous environmental stimuli and psychiatric and medical conditions may cause sleep problems. The first line treatment of sleep problems in ASD includes managements for potential contributing factors and parent education about sleep hygiene care for child and behavioral therapy. Supplementation with melatonin may be effective before considering other medications, such as risperidone, clonidine, and mirtazapine.

Flap survival is critical to the success in reconstructive surgery, there have been many investigations to increase the blood supply to the flaps such as surgical delay and pharmacologic delay. Prostaglandin(PG) is released from various tissues including blood vessel in response to physical stimulus. Among the Prostaglandins, PGE1 has been proven to be a vasodilatation property and many authors have demonstrated its effect to increase blood supply after random cutaneous flap surgery. Clinically, however, muscle flap or musculocutaneous flap is more significantly used in reconstructive surgery and hemodynamic effects of PGE1 of this type of flap are still not documented. The authors designed the random muscle flap to study the hemodynamic effects of PGE1 of the muscle flap. Superior based rectus muscle flap was elevated from rats and the superior epigastric artery, its major vascular pedicle, was ligated to create the random-type muscle flap. Twenty two rats were divided into two experimental groups and each group had 11 rats; Group I: No drugs Group II: PGE1 injection group for 7 postoperative days intraperitoneally The average muscle flap survival rate of group I was 46+/-3.0 precent and it had a higher survival rate than the control group(23+/-4.3%). The muscle flap survival rates showed significant differences between the two groups (p< 0.005) This study shows that the administration of the PGE1, in clinical usage of the rare random muscle flap with a pedicle injury or musculocutaneous flap with the risk of distal cutaneous flap necrosis, such as TRAM flap, which might be much safer and popular.

Basta(R) is one of the Phospho-amino acid group herbicide. It consist of glufosinate ammonium (18.5%), alkylether sulfate as surfactant (30%) and some solvents. Although it's WHO classification is Bade III, the intoxicated patient appears an serious clinical findings and have a 20% mortality rate. Nowadays, in Korea the ingestion of herbicidal agents for suicidal attempts is Sequent. The literature for intoxication of bipyridilium (Gramoxon(R)) as herbicide is varied, but the information for Basta(R) is poor even though the use of it tends to increase. Recently, We experienced six cases of Basta(R) intoxication and found that the patient expressed a gradually progressed depression of mentation, recent memory disturbances, convulsions, hypotension, or bradycardia because of CNS or cardiovascular effects of Basta(R) We report these cases with literature review.

The purpose of this study w-s to predict the respose to the chincap therapy from the initial cephalometric measurements and to obtain the indication of chincap therapy. 40 patients selected for this study were classified into two groups by the occlusal stability after completion of permanent dentition and the iiu4n ovement of facial profile, after chincap therapy. One was g response group which consisted of 25 children and the other was poor response group with 15 patients. Various measurements of the craniofacial structure in the initial lateral cephalogram were calculated and analyzed by t-test and discriminant analysis. The results were, as follows 1. Good response group had more horizontal growth pattern in initial stage of treatment, and the contributing measurements were Bjork sum, anterior-posterior facial height ratio, gonial angle, lower gonial angle and occlusal plane to AB plane angle. 2. The critical points and predictive values of the influential skeletal measurements were calculated. 3. The discriminant function was obtained from three. major influential measurements; Bjork sum, gonial angle and occliml plane to AB plane angle, and this function could discreminate correctly in 85% of this samples.
