6.Rate of persistent eosinophilia which incidentally founded after a follow up of 2 years in middle aged man.
Journal of the Korean Academy of Family Medicine 2001;22(8):1255-1261
BACKGROUND: Eosinophilia is associated with distinctive disease processes that include helminthic parasitic infections, allergic diseases and a diversity of diseases of ill defined etiology. But the rate of persistent eosinophilia is not known in incidental eosinophilia without definite diseases such as parasite or allergic diseases. METHODS: This study included 242 middle aged man who found eosinophilia incidentally in health check up at a general hospital and followed up after 2 years. The man who didn't know eosinophilia and never treated nor worked up for eosinophilia included. We study the persistent rate of eosinophilia after a follow up of 2 years. RESULTS: In 78% of incidental eosinophilia, the number of eosinophils was less than 1000/mm3. The rate of persistent eosinophilia which incidentally founded after a follow up of 2 years is 29.8%. Higher numbers of eosinophilia, higher rate of persistent eosinophilia. Eosinophil number less than 1000/mm3 showed 23.8% persistent eosinophilia, 1000 1499/mm3 46.3%, 1500 1999/mm3 57.1%, more than 2000/mm3 80% persistent eosinophilia respectively. (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Incidental eosinophilia less than 1000/mm3 usually normalized without intervention, so simple observation is recommended.

Intracompartmental pressure of leg was measured by the slit catheter technique in one hundred fifty compartments of one hundred cases; fifty were from healthy young male adults, the others were from tibial fractured patients during three years from March 1983 to Fobruary 1986. The results were as follows; 1. Slit-catheter technique was found as a accurate method for continuous pressure monitoring. 2. The range of normal pressure was from zero to six millimeters of mercury(1.45mmHg±0.85). 3. Tissue pressure was 0–15mmHg(4.03mmHg±1.83) in unaffected side of fractured patients, 4–35mmHg(14.65mmHg±2.05) in affected side of fractured patients.

10.Prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection in patients of peptic ulcer among Korean people.
Journal of the Korean Academy of Family Medicine 1999;20(9):1084-1090
BACKGROUND: Helicobacter pylori infection is thought to be an important factor in the pathogenesis af gastric and duodenal ulcer. But in Korea, there are few studies on the prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection in peptic ulcer patients and their relationship between the location of ulcers and Helicobacter pylori infection. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence af Helicobacter pylori infection of gastric and duodenal ulcer patients in Korea and the relationship between the location of ulcers and Helicobacter pylori infection. METHODS: We studied 476 consecutive patients with duodenal ulcers or benign gastric ulcer which were diagnased by gastrofiberscopy in Family Medicine of Hanil Hospital from January 1995 to December 1998. Helicobacter pylori infection was evaluated with rapid urease test ( CLO test) in 72.7% patients. RESULTS: The test rate of CLO test was not significantly different by sex, age and site of gastric ulcer lesions, but test rate in the gastric ulcer was significantly lower than in the duodenal ulcer. The prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection diagnosed with CLO test was 90.1%. The prevalence cf Helicobacter pylori infection was not significantly different between rnales and females. Also it was also not significantly different according to age. 90.8% of those with gastric ulcer patients and 88.9% of the duodenal ulcer had Helicobacter pylori infection, but the difference was not significant. 94.6% of gastric ulcers located in only one area had Helicobacter pylori infection, compared to 83.6% of gastric ulcers which was located in multiple areas. The prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection was significantly lower in patients who had lesions located in multiple areas. CONCLUSIONS: We condude that the majurity of peptic ulcer patients in Korea have Helicobacter pylori infection. Gastric uker located in multiple areas had significantly lower prevalence af Helicobacter pylori infection, which may suggest that gastric ulcers in multiple areas have other etiologic factors.
