This study was aimed (1) to evaluate osteoporotic vertehral fracture using normal morphometric dimensions in the Korean women (2) to test the relative importance of vertebral morphometry and fracture characteristics in predicting lumbar spine hone mineral density (3) to study clinical significance of the patients of 2 standard deviation to 3 standard deviation morphometric value. Normal morphometric data was ohtained from 60 heolthy women and 100 women with osteoporotic vertebral fracture defined by normal morphometry were evaluated. Fracture identification by 3SD cut off value was almost similar with that of qualitative method. Fracture identification by 2SD cut off value showed an increased number of fractures on the mid thoracic and thoracolumbar junction. Distrihution of the osteoporotic vertehral fracture showed double peaks on mid thoracic and thoracolumbar junction. Bone mineral density of third lumhar spine (LSBMD) in the multiple fracture group was significantly decreased from that of the single tracture group(p<0.05). LSBMD in the disperse fracture group was not different from that of the cluster fracture group(P>0.05). Comparing LSBMD of 3SD, 2SD-3SD fracture group and controls, the 3SD fracture group showed lowest value (P<0.01). But LSBMD of 2SD-3SD fracture group showed no difference with that of controls. Fracture threshold was 0.847gm/cm2 in 90th percentile. The correlation of LSBMD with the sum of normalized height of vertebral bodies, the sum of the deformity ratio of the vertebral body and spinal deformity index were all statistically insignificant.

BACKGROUND: Some research viewed that effective dietary therapy was enough to control proper blood glucose level, but in the most patient, dietary therapy was not practiced and the most difficult part of managing their diabetes. The purpose of this research study was to investigate dietary practice adherence and perceived barriers among the elderly diabetes. METHODS: The survey was mailed to 852 persons with diabetes member via diabetic educator of 156 hospitals or clinics and 24 health centers. Questionnaire had background information of patients, meal regularity, food intake as a dietary practice adherence, barriers of 36 items which have 3 areas such as motive/attitude, knowledge, authority/resource. We asked the person with diabetes to rate barrier to dietary practice adherence. 432 questionnaire were returned the response. we selected 69 persons who were over 65 year old. RESULTS: 1) meal regularity was more satisfactory than food intake. 2) deficit of meal regularity were evening snack and resonable spacing between evening meal and evening snack. 3) deficit of food intake was serving of milk. 4) main barrier to dietary practice adherence was that of knowledge. CONCLUSION: For practice effectively dietary therapy to elderly diabetes, individual consultation or small group education must be pursued and more easily educational skills should be required.

Despite a recent trend toward increased screening and public awareness for colorectal cancer, 30% of patients present with incurable disease. This study was designed to identify objective criteria that might help surgeons decide which patients with incurable colorectal cancer will benefit from palliative resection. Among 33 patients considered incurable colorectal cancer, twenty one patients underwent palliative resection and twelve patients had bypass surgery. Incidence of postoperative complication after palliative resection was 61.9%(13 cases), and after bypass surgery was 58.3%(7 cases). Among patients treated by palliative resection, one patient required reoperation for postoperative bleeding. The operative mortality after palliative resection was 19%(4 cases), and after bypass surgery was 25%(3 cases). The median survival was 11.4 months for patients treated by palliative resection, and was 9.7 months for patients treated by bypass surgery. These results show that palliative resection can be done safely and effectively in patients with incurable colorectal cancer. We believe this approach improved the quality of the remaining life in these patients.
