We observed the patients admitted to the department of pediatrics of Seoul Red Cross Hospital during the past twenty years form Jan. 1971 to Dec. 1990. The results were as follows: 1) The total number of pediatric inpatients during 20 years was 15,800, of which 9,683 were male, 6,117 were female and male to female ratio was 1.58:1. 2) On age distribution, neonates and infants less than 1 year of age were 6,224 cases (39.4%). 3) Monthly distribution of the inpatients showed the highest incidence in October. 4) Infectious and parasitic diseases were 4,759 cases (30.1%) and respiratory tract diseases, 3,556 cases (22.5%) and disease of these two group occupied more than one half of total admission. 5) Major 10 leading causes of hospitalization were diarrheal disease (14.2%), convulsion (7.0%), acute bronchiolitis (6.8%), pneumonia, tuberculosis, URI, neonatal hyperbilirubinemia, prematurity and low birth weight infant, acute glomerulonephritis and laryngitis in the order of frequency. 6) There was marked decrease in the number of the admitted patients with typhoid fever, bacillary dysentery, tuberculous meningitis, hepatitis, pyogenic meningitis, rheumatic fever, and acute glomerulonephritis. But the patients with URI, bronchial asthma, neonatal hyperbilirubinemia and Kawasaki disease have increased.

BACKGROUND: Using c-fos expression one of the immediate early gene, as a marker of altered neuronal response, we investigated the effect of superior cervical ganglion block (SCGB) exhibiting the same effect of SGB of human on the activity of several brain regions which are considered as located on autonomic neural pathway and neuroendocrine axis in rat. METHOD: The 48 Sprague-Dawley strain rats were divided into 4 groups, as saline/stress (control) group, SCGB/stress (tested) group, saline group, SCGB group. Superior cervical ganglion block was conducted in the SCGB/stress group and SCGB group while saline/stress and saline group were sham operated. After then restraint stress was imposed on the animals of SCGB/stress group and saline/stress group. And 2 hour after injection (saline, SCGB group) or restraint stress (saline/stress, SCGB/stress group), c-fos protein (Fos) was localized by immunocytochemistry. RESULTS: Much stronger Fos immunoreactivity was induced in the several brain region of control group rats compared to other three groups and the numbers of Fos positive cell count of tested group were significantly decreased in paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus (p<0.01), A5 (p<0.01), raphe pallidus (p<0.05), nucleus tractus solitaius (p<0.01) compared to control group. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrate that superior cervical ganglion block attenuates stress induced neuronal activities of paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus, A5, raphe pallidus, nucleus tractus solitarius.

Repeat cesarean section is one of the leading causes to make increasing a rate of cesarean section. Trial of labor TOL after cesarean section is attempt to reduce the rate of repeat cesarean section. Trial of labor has been well established as a safe alternative in carefully selected women with transverse scars in the lower uterine segment. This study was based on 104 cases of delivery with prior cesarean birth at the Chonbuk National University Hospital from January, 1991 to June, 1997. The results were as follows: 1) Among 1400 cases with previous cesarean delivery, trial of labor was done in 104 cases (7.4%). Among 104 cases, vaginal birth was successfully completed in 96 cases (92.3%). 2) Among 28 cases with PGE2, vaginal tablet, vaginal delivery was done in 23 cases (82.1%). 3) Among 22 cases with more than 4 of Bishop score, vaginal delivery was done in 21 cases (95.5%), and among 6 cases with less than 3 of Bishop score, vaginal delivery was done only 2 cases (33.3%). 4) There was no matemal death or uterine rupture in the cases of trial of labor, But in 2 cases, uterine dehiscence was observed in 4 cases and postpartal bleeding (more than 400ml) was developed. 5) In the cases of cesarean section, mean of hospital day was 7 days and medical fee was about 400,000 won. In the cases of vaginal birth after cesarean section, mean of hospital day was 2.6 days and medical fee was about 100,000 won. In condusion, vaginal birth after cesarean section is safe and effective alternative to elective repeat cesarean section and also the use of PGE, vaginal tablet is so effective to increase success rate of vaginal delivery. After all, positive these trials might decrease cesarean rate and increase maternal health and quality of medical care.

Urinary tract anomaly is the most common anomaly in childhood. We reviewed medical records of 45 patients who were confirmed urinary tract anomalies on radiologic studies as Chuncheon Sacred Hospital, from Dec. 1984 to Sep. 1992. We analyzed incidence and clinical characteristics of urinary tract anomalies. The results obtained were as follows: 1) The age distribution were: 1)7 cases (37.8%) under 3 years, 6 cases (13.3%) from 4 to 6 years, 10 cases (22.2%) from 7 to 9 years, 9 cases (20.0%) from 10 to 12 years and 3 cases (6.7%) from 13 to 15 years. 2) Main symptoms were fever, dysuria and hematuria. 3) 26 cases (59.8%) were combined with urinary tract infection, and main causative organism were E. coli and Staphylococcus. 4) The most common anomalies were hydronephrosis, duplication of urinary tract and renal agenesis in order of sequence. 5) 34 cases (75.6%) were simple anomaly and 11 cases (24.4%) were complex anomalies. 6) Operative correction was needed on 20 cases.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of frozen gauze with normal saline on thirst and the oral health of patients with nasal surgery. METHODS: A quasi-experimental, nonequivalent control group pretest-post test design was used. Participants (n=52) received either gauze frozen with normal saline (n=26), or wet gauze (n=26). The subjective thirst level and oral health of the participants were assessed before the intervention, 30 minutes after the first intervention, 30 minutes after the second intervention, and 30 minutes after the third intervention. RESULTS: After oral hygiene was provided twice, the thirst level was improved in patients receiving the gauze frozen with normal saline. After oral hygiene was provided a third time, the thirst level was improved in patients receiving the gauze frozen with normal saline. CONCLUSION: Gauze frozen with normal saline can be effective for oral hygiene in reducing the thirst level and improving the oral health in nasal surgery patients.

We measured corneal endothelial cell density of 100 normal eyes of 50 Korean volunteers on central, superior, inferior, nasal and temporal aspect, respectively. Non-contact specular microscopy were used for measurement. The data thus obteined were analyzed according to the following parameters: age, laterality, sex and location(central vs. peripheral). Corneal endothelial cell density showed gradual decrement with age, but no significant statistically differences with laterality and sex. The results showed a large difference in corneal endothelial cell density depending on the location, although they failed to show statistical significant(P>0.05).
