This study aims to investigate the recent clinical and mycological trends of dermatophytoses in Pusan area. The number of patients with dermatophytoses diagnosed by KOH examination and culture at Maryknoll Hospital was 1, 213 during past 2 years from November 1982 to October 1984. The incidence rate of dermatopbytoses was 9. 8% out of 12,377 cases of out patients in total. Tinea pedis (33 .7%,) was the most frequent diagnosis, followed by tinea cruris, tinea unguium, tinea corporis, tinea faciale, tinea manus and tinea capitis, in the order of decreasing frequency. The majority of cases were found in the age group from 20 to 39 4, The over all ratio of male to female patients was ] 2: 1 5 The positive rate in KOH examination was 96. 2A, and it was especially low in the areas of scalp, face and toe webs. The positive culture rate was 55, 9g, and it was higher in the covered area than in the exposed area. 6 678 strains out of the 1, 213 patients were isolated and identified. The species isolated were, in the order of decreasing frequency, Trichophyton rubrum (558 strains, 82.3% of total organisms isolated), Tn'chophyton mentagrophytes (55,8, 1 Microsporum canis (48, 7. 1g) Epidermophyton floccosum (12, 1 8g) and Microsporum gypseum (5, 0. 7gp) Trichophyton rubrum was the major causative organism in all the types of dermatophytoses except tinea capitis and tinea faciale. In tinea capitis, Microsporum canis was the main causative organism, and Trichophyton ferrugineum was not isolated, at all, which was a specific point, compared with the past tendency. In tinea faciale, zoophilic organisms were mainly isolated.

The spondylolysis is a defective ossification in the pars interarticularis of the neural arches without displacement of the vertebral body. The authors analysed 810 lumbar spines of adult Korean laborers on the basis examined to determine the anatomic characteristics of spondylolysis. The following results were obtained. 1. The overall incidence in laborer was 6.8%. 2. The most frequent site of the involvement was the fifth lumbar vertebra. of radiologic study and 3. Spina bifida in spodylolysis was approximately 1.7 times as frequent as is normally expected. 4. Lumbarization in spondylolysis was approximately 5.8 times as frequent as is normally expected. 5. Sacralization was not found in 55 cases of spondylolysis.

The current study was performed to investigate the influence of acidosis on focal cerebral ischemia in view of morphometric assay and neuropathological examination. The acidosis was induced by increment of halothane concentration and by decreasing respiratory rate. The mean pH were 7.423+/-0.012 in control group and 7.184+/-0.038 in acidosis group. Twenty-four hours after MCA occlusion(MCAO), neutral red staining and perfusion fixation was performed. The ischemic area was measured and morphometric analysis was undertaken. In acidosis group, the infarct area was 25.23+/-4.78% of the total cerebral area;in control group, the infarct area was 27.69+/-4.05%. The histopathological findings were examined under light microscopy, in which the field scanning was carried out from the midline by 0.5mm interval at cortical and basal ganglia levels. These results indicated that although there was no satistically significant difference in infarct area between acidosis and control group, increased acidosis aggravated the extent of histopathologic ischemic neuronal damage.

Notch stenosis had been thought to be related with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the possible relationship between notch stenosis and ACL injury. We measured the notch seen on the axial section in MRI at popliteal groove. We have retrospectively analyzed 116 cases of knee MRI. All cases were divided into three groups ; Group I were fifty six normal knee. Group II were thirty knee with contact ACL injuries. Group III were thirty knee with non contact ACL injuries. The result were as follows; 1. Statistically significant difference was found in the notch width index (NWI) between group I and group III but no significant differences was found in the NWI between group I and group II. 2. Statistically significant correlation to non-contact ACL injuries was found in the NWI at both anterior and posterior outlet of the notch. 3. An unique shape of the notch was found in the majority of group III.There seemed to be an obvious relationship between notch stenosis and non-contact ACL injuries.

Serum thyroxine(T4), effective thyroxine index(ETI) and thyroid stimulating hormone(TSH) were measured in 60 albino rats following laminectomy and cord injury produced by weight drop method. Thyroid hormones were measured at one and 100 minutes and, at 1, 3 and 7 days after injury by radioimmunoassay method. At 1 and 100 minutes, T4 was significantly reduced in both laminectomy and cord injured groups. TSH at 1 and 100 minutes were also elevated significantly. Gradual normalization of T4 and TSH showed at 7 days. It appeared likely that the opimal time to the administration of exogenous thyroid hormone would be before the 7th day of cord injury.
