PURPOSE: Asymptomatic urinary retention in the post-partum period is a relatively common problem. We investigated prospectively the incidence and the various risk factors associated with asymptomatic urinary retention in post-partum. MATERIALS AND METHODS: From Feb. 1999 to Apr. 1999, all pregnant women who visited our hospital for delivery were evaluated. Among them 103 women who had undergone vaginal delivery were evaluated, Exclusion criteria were cesarean section, incidental catheter indwelling during delivery, and symptomatic urinary retention. Residual urine volume was measured using BladderScanTM BVI 2500(Diagnostic Ultrasound co.) within 10 minutes after first voiding in immediate post-partum period. Asymptomatic urinary retention was defined as residual urine volume over 150ml. Pre-partal urinary symptoms and various obstetric parameters were evaluated in asymptomatic urinary retention group and normal group as control. Asymptomatic urinary retention group were followed up daily to monitor their post-void residual urine volume. RESULTS: The incidence of asymptomatic urinary retention after vaginal delivery was 13.6%. Factors associated with asymptomatic urinary retention included second stage of labor, episiotomy, and instrumental delivery. There was no relationship between pre-partal lower urinary tract symptoms and post-partal asymptomatic urinary retention. In patients with asymptomatic urinary retention, catheterization was done for removing residual urine and thus preventing progression of further distension. Post-void residual volume was normalized within 3 days in all patients. CONCLUSIONS: Asymptomatic post-partum urinary retention is a self-limiting phenomenon associated with various traumatic events during hard labor such as prolonged labor, episiotomy, instrumental delivery. Close observation of voiding patterns in patients with risk factors is needed to prevent myogenic failure associated with unrecognized asymptomatic post-partum urinary retention.

Calcific tendinitis of the shoulder joint is common disease causing acute pain, mainly involving the supraspinatus or infraspinatus muscle, and less frequently the teres minor or subscapularis muscle. This study reports on the satisfactory arthroscopic removal of calcium deposits as well as infraspinatus and supraspinatus muscle repair without relapse via minimal incision using suture anchors. This was a case of atypically extensive calcific tendinitis involving the infraspinatus muscle, with a bursal side partial rupture of the supraspinatus muscle in a 61-year-old female whose chief complaint was chronic pain of the right shoulder exacerbated by limited movement.

3.Ossification of the Coracoacromial Ligament in Subacromial Impingement Syndrome: A Case Report.

Here, a case of a 59-year-old man with rotator cuff tear and impingement syndrome caused by an ossified coracoacromial ligament is presented. Ossification of the coracoacromial ligaments can occur because of degenerative changes due to trauma or repeated stress, which can lead to impingement syndrome. Therefore, when coracoacromial ligament ossification is present, rotator cuff damage due to impingement syndrome should be considered. Here, we conducted arthroscopic subacromial decompression, removal of the ossified coracoacromial ligament, and supraspinatus and subscapularis tendon repairs. We achieved satisfactory surgical outcomes without relapse; therefore, we report this case with a literature review.

Choledochal cyst, or cystic dilatation of the common bile duct, is generally considered to be an uncommon indiopathic congenital condition that may produce symptoms in infancy but more of ten is discovered at some time during the first two decades of life. Female patients have outnumbered males 3 or 5 to1, and almost cases reported by many authors had more than two symptoms among the classic triad of abdominal mass, jaundice and upper abdominal pain. Authors would like to submit here with the brief review of the literature and report on 2 cases of idiopathic dilatation of the common bile duct that they had experiences among the Pediatric inpatient at Busan St. Benedict Hospital, and the diagnosis was established by clinical, laboratory, X-ray and surgical findings. Cases I in 14 year old girl was complained of severe abdominal distension, jaundice, pruritus and abdominal mass. On 7th admission day, exploratory laparatomy was done and choledochal cyst of 1722cm in size was confirmed and has been followed up for 1 year after Roux-en-Y choledochojejunsotomy without any complications. Cases II in 9 year old boy was complained of intermittent fever, jaundice, colicky abdominal pain and upper abdominal mass. On 6th admission day, exploratory laparatomy was done and choledochal cyst of 1015cm in size was confirmed and has been followed up for 1 year after choledochoduodenostomy with cholecystectomy without any complications.

10.2020 Korean Dietary Reference Intakes for Protein: Estimation of protein requirements and the status of dietary protein intake in the Korean population

This article evaluated levels of Estimated Average Requirements (EARs), Reference Nutrient Intakes (RNIs), and Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Ranges (AMDRs) of protein using the recently revised Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs) for Koreans (2020). Dietary protein requirements are based on amounts sufficient to satisfy physiological demands to accomplish nitrogen equilibrium. The same principle was applied to estimate EARs and RNIs, for adults in DRIs conducted in 2015 and 2020 in Koreans. EAR was estimated to be 0.73 g/kg body weight/day, according to data (0.66 g/kg body weight/day) obtained using the nitrogen balance method and adjusted by efficiency of protein use (90%). RNI was calculated as EAR increased by an amount equal to twice the standard deviation of an age group so as to cover 97.5% of the group and was found to be 0.91 g/kg body weight/day. For weaned infants, children, and adolescents, growth requirement was added to estimate EAR. In particular, growth requirement was adjusted by efficiency of protein use in the revised EAR, which led to higher EARs for weaned infants, children, and adolescents of both genders as compared with 2015 DRIs. The AMDR for protein was set at 7%–20% of energy intake, which was the same as 2015 DRIs. Current, average protein intake by the Korean population is almost twice times the EAR, which suggests it might be better to increase the minimal margin for AMDR.However, it was not adjusted in this revision due to lack of evidence.
