In order to designate a status necessary for establishment of preventive measures and guidelines of health education against hepatitis B in the course of secondary school education, knowledge and practice toward hepatitis B virus infection was surveyed by a questionnaire method on total of 4,855 college entrants in the academic year of 1987 and analyzed the data collected using IBM PC(Trigem 88-II) with SAS package program. About two percent of college entrants had past history of HBV infections not showing any difference between both sexes and geographical regions. About one third(33.7%) of total students had tested hepatitis B surface antigen(HBsAg), only 4% had tested hepatitis B surface antibody(HBsAb) and vaccination rate amounted to 24.6%, one fourth of total subjects. Both serological tests and vaccination were most commonly performed during adolescence, showing higher rates in female students than in male students. The rates also seemed to be higher in those from urban cities than those from rural cities. Students who had acquired correct knowledge that hepatitis B was infected by virus were amounted to 78.5% of college entrants, and remaining 21.5% had misunderstood that rickettsia, bacteria, fungi or parasites were casual agents. Female students were better aware of the causal agents than male students but there was no difference between places of growth. As for mode of transmission of HBV, 51.5% of male students and 47.7% of female students had correct knowledge. A very few student had known that fact that HBV was transmitted by body fluids such as tear (6.9%), nasal discharge(10.1%) and semen or vaginal secretion(19.2%) and majority(75%) of students had misunderstood that hepatitis B virus would be transmitted per os through food ingestion. Approximately one half(48.9%) of college entrants had correctly whom to be vaccinated. Approximately one half of the students knew that hepatoma(57.8%) and liver cirrhosis(57.4%) might complicate with hepatitis B virus infection, whereas 12.0% of the students responded that bronchitis was one of the complications of hepatitis B infection. In summary of the above results, we highly recommend that health education program for eradication of hepatitis B virus infection should be introduced in curricula of secondary school education in this country.

From 1993 to 1996, we have used a new modular shoulder prosthesis for the treatment of acute complex fracture of the proximal humerus. The purpose of this study is to evaluate function, pain relief, and patient satisfaction after moduiar hemiarthroplasty for proximal humerus fractures. The stucly included 12 patients (J2 shoulders) with an average age of 68.5 years (range, 60 to 84 years). According to the Neer classification system, there were 3 four-part fracture-dislocations, 5 four-part fractures, 3 three-part fractures, and #I head splitting fracture. 'fhe hemiarthroplasty was pert'ormed at an average of 4 days (range, 3 to 10 days) following injury. Deltopectoral approach was used in all patients, and the prostheses were implanted with cement in ten cases. Follow-up evaluation, at an average of 32 months post-surgery, included clinical and radio- graphic examination. Active forward elevation averaged 120 degrees; external rotation, 35 degrees; and internal rotation, to the first lumbar vertebra. All of patients, except two who had poor results, were graded as good or excellent according to UCLA shoulder rating scale. Complications consisted of one tuberosity dispiacement, one peri-operative death and one loosening of uncemented humeral prosthesis. We concluded that Modular hemiarthroplasty for acute complex fracture of the proximal humerus especially in severely osteoporotic elderly patients facilitated the restoration of humeral length, anatomic repositioning of tuberosities, and precise soft tissue balance, thereby allowing earliermotion to prevent the developement of painful shoulder stiffness.

OBJECTIVE: To establish the standard values for proper antenatal weight gain, biweekly mean weight gains, standard deviations were calculated from the 5th to the 42nd gestational week and their percentiles were determined. And the influence of prepregnancy body mass index and/or parity on biweekly weight gain was investigated. METHODS: We analyzed the biweekly weight gain data from 910 women who had noncomplicated singleton term pregnancy. Data was categorized in three groups according to body mass index (BMI). RESULTS: The biweekly weight gain table has been determined and 'Sigmoid(S) shaped' weight gain curves were presented. Primipara and multipara have significantly less weight gain than nullipara beyond the 25th weeks. Biweekly weight gain was significantly different among prepregnancy BMI groups from the 13th week. CONCLUSION: More careful prenatal care according to the biweekly weight gain-gestational week tables is needed to prevent a lot of complications which may be associated with abnormal weight gain during pregnancy. To establish Korean standard value for antenatal weight gain, a nationwide multicenter study is needed.

OBJECTIVE: To establish the biweekly standard values of pregnancy weight gains for primiparas and multiparas, and to investigate the influence of prepregnancy body mass index on biweekly weight gain during pregnancy. METHODS: We analyzed the biweekly weight gain data from 536 primiparas and 114 multiparas who had noncomplicated singleton term pregnancy. Data was categorized according to parity and body mass index (BMI). RESULTS: Biweekly weight gain was significantly different among prepregnancy BMI groups from the 15th week but was not different between primiparas and multiparas. CONCLUSION: To prevent a lot of complications which may be associated with abnormal weight gain during pregnancy, more careful prenatal care according to the prepregnancy BMI groups is needed. To establish the Korean standard value for antenatal weight gain, a nationwide multicenter study is needed.

OBJECTIVE: To calculate monthly weight gains during pregnancy among 20s, early and late 30s, and to investigate the influence of age groups on monthly weight gains. METHODS: We analyzed the monthly weight gain data from 892 women who had visited before 20 weeks of gestation and had healthy singleton term pregnancy. Data was categorized in three groups according to age (20s, early and late 30s). RESULTS: The monthly weight gain tables among 20s, early and late 30s have been determined. Monthly weight gain was not significantly different among three age groups. CONCLUSION: Although statistically insignificant among three age groups, more cautious prenatal care according to the monthly weight gain-gestational month tables for each age group is needed to prevent complications which may be associated with abnormal weight gain during pregnancy.

Heterotopic pregnancy is the coexistence of intrauterine and extrauterine pregnancy. It is a rare obstetrical phenomenon with an incidence rate about 0.003%. The risk factors of heterotopic pregnancy are IUD, PID, endometriosis, tubal surgery, etc resulting in functional and anatomical injury to tubes. Recently, the wide use of ovulation induction and in vitro fertilization has increased the incidence rate. The clinical manifestation are low abdominal pain, adnexal mass, peritoneal irritation signs, vaginal bleeding, etc. Early detecion of heterotopic pregnancy is very difficult. However, recently, due to development of pelviscopy, ultrasonogram and other diagnostic procedures, the diagnostic rate has increased.Because of the high maternal morbidity and mortality resulted from intraabdominal bleeding after rupture of ectopic pregnacy, immediate termination of ectopic pregnancy is required usually by operative methods. We experienced a case of heterotopic pregnancy after tubal reanastomosis and report this case with a brief review of literatures.
