2.Study on the Attitude to Home Attendants System and Home Nursing Education of the Housewives in the City.
Korean Journal of Preventive Medicine 1988;21(2):380-389
This study was conducted in order to find out the attitude of housewives toward the home attendants system, the type of institute managing home attendants, the education for home attendants, the basic requisites for home attendants, and home nursing education, and identify the factors influencing on the housewives's attitude. The data were collected through questionnaires obtained from 401 housewives from March 1 to March 31, 1988. The results summarized were as follows; 1) 90.2 percent of total housewives favored the home attendants system, and housewives who had have their family member with health problem especially showed favorable response. 2) The favored types of institution managing home attendants appeared to be private social work agency(33.0%), half-private and half-public agency(32.2%), government agency(19.9%) and profit agency(2.2%). In particular, housewives who had experienced nursing favored half-private and half-public agency(37.6%). 3) As the basic requisites for home attendants, housewives wanted service attitude(37.2%), nursing education(34.4%) and nursing experience(28.4%). But, housewives with nursing experience favored nursing education rather than service attitude. 4) 91.1% of total housewives favored the home nursing education. In particular, housewives of high education level and nursing experience showed more favorable response to the home nursing education.

Two cases of congenital multiple joint laxity are reported here. One was a 18-year-old boy, in whom the hypermobility of the joints was striking that 4 criterias (Carter & Wilkinson, 1964) could be observed. The other was a 18-year-old male who showed positive findings in three of the five diagnostic criterias. In both no familiar occurrence was noted.

We present two cases of lymphangioma circumscriptum according to the clinical pattern and histopathological findings, one with lesions on the tongue and the other with lesions of the oral mucous membrane. The first case was a 5 year-old boy with a plaque of grouped transluscent vesicles resembling frog's spawn on ventral surface of the tongue of three years duration. The second case, also a 5 year-old boy, had a lymphangioma circumscriptum lesion in the right buccal mucous membrane which developed several months after birth and eventually produeed swelling of the right cheek. The histopathological findings of both cases showed variable-sized dilated lymphatic channels lined by one layer of normal endothelial cells, extending to the deep dermis, subcutaneous tissue and muscle layer and resembling the spongy type variant of classical lymphangoima circumscriptum using the classification of lymphangioma of Peacheyet al.

Cutis naarmorata telangiectatica congenita(CMTC) was first lesribed by Van Lohuizen in 1992. Cases of CMTC were reported later under various names, includir gan Lohuizens syndrome, congenital generalized phlebectasia. congential phlebectasia and reticulatever scular nevus. It is charaterized by persistent livedo reticularis, telangiectasia and phlectnsia from birch hand atrophy and superficial ulceration of the overlying skin are uncornmonly encountered. They have a steady improvement with time, however various congenital abnormalties, such as varicosities, hen ariomas, hypoplasia or hypertrophy of soft tissue and bones, rarely generalized congenital fibrornatos ectal and genital anomaliies may be associated in approxirnately 50 percent of patients. In case 1, the patient was 45-day-old female infant with reticulated mottling and atrophy of the skin on the right leg. In case 2, the patient was 30-day-old male infant who depressed, bluish, and reticulated patches on the both upprarms, right side trunk, buttock and loen leg. Decreased circumferences of the affected extremities vas observed in case 2. No other assotated anomalies were found in physical and X-ray examinatiorwlin both cases. The skin biiopsy of bothed similar findings, which revealed mild dilatation and proliferation of capillaries, mild inflammatoryel infiltration and extravasated red blood cells in the dermis. The clinical follow-up, alneast all of th lisions disappeared spont.anously in 1 year at case 1, and some of lesions also disappeared in 3 month, 11 case 2. In addition, we reviewed and summerized the reported cases in Korea.

Eccrine carcinoma does not have a characteristic clinical appreranc, but does have a high incidence of metastatic spread. It may arise anywhere in the skin. The microscopic patterns that of an adenocarcinoma, which may be confused with metastatic adenocarcinoma. In the classical type the histologic features varies from fairy well-differentiated tubular structures in some areaslo anaplastic carcinoma in other areas. The patient was a 51-year-old man who showed a painful, tender, right red-calored, 4 x 5crn-sized tumor mass on the right angle of the lower lip for ten years. In the diological examinations multiple metastatic foci were seen on both lung fields, Histopathologic findings of the skin and lung biopsy specimens revealed that of the classic type of eccrine carcinoma like the bove descriptions. Immunocytochemical studies showed a positive reactivity to anti-cytokeratin anti-ibody, anti-CEA antibody, and anti-S-100 protein on the skin and lung biopsy specimens and no he reactivity to anti-S-100 protein on the lung mass. Electronrnicroscopic findings revealed eccrine glaidlar structures such as nunierous mitochondria and dense core granules in the cytoplasm of neoplastic cells. We report a case of eccririe carcinoma with lung metastases baed on the clinical, radiological and histologic findings.

BACKGROUND: Several studies have demonstrated that quantitation of hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA in sera of HBsAg-positive patients is more useful test for the assessment of infectivity and for the evaluation of disease status than previously utilized numerous serological markers and qualitative polymerase chain reaction for the detection of HBV DNA. We tried to measure serum HBV DNA using a branched DNA (bDNA) signal amplification assay, which is recently introduced and known to be a simple and nonradioisotopic method. METHODS: Total forty patients with HBsAg were randomly selected and serum HBV DNA was measured with duplication using bDNA signal amplification assay (QUANTIPLEXTM HBV DNA ASSAY, Chiron, USA). Quantitation was determined from a standard curve and expressed as HBV DNA equivalents/mL (Eq/mL; 1 Eq = 1 molecule of the primary HBV DNA standard). Serum HBeAg, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) , and soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R) were compared with HBV DNA. RESULTS: Serum HBV DNA was quantitated in 13 patients (32.5%) (range 6.4x106-7.4x109 Eq/mL, mean 1.8x109 Eq/mL, CV 8.1%). All eleven patients (100%) with both HBsAg and HBeAg an4 2 of 29 patients (6.9%) with HBsAg but not with HBeAg showed measurable HBV DNA (p < 0.001). In addition, serum levels of AST, ALT, and sIL-2R were significantly higher in HBV DNA measured patients compared with those of unmeasured patients. CONCLUSIONS: Above results show that more than half the HBsAg-positive patients do not have enough HBV DNA which is measurable with boNA signal amplification assay but all of HBeAg-positive patients and some of HBeAg-negative patients do. In addition, HBV DNA quantitation might be correlated with the disease activity in HBsAg-positive patients because serum levels of AST, ALT, and sIL-2R are higher in patients measured with HBV DNA than unmeasured.
