To evaluate the relationship between arteriolosclerosis and diabetic retinopathy, we graded the levels of diabetic retinopathy and arteriolosclerosis and compared each other in 255 patients with non-insulin dependent diabetes. And we also measured serum lipid levels and checked other risk fac-tors for diabetic retinopathy. SPSS was used for statistical analysis. Patients with advanced arteriolosclerosis were at higher risk of severe diabetic retinopathy. And patients with elevated plasma total cholesterol, LDL-C, TG had more severe levels of diabetic retinopathy than whose lipid levels were normal. These results suggested that advanced arteriolosclerosis and elevated serum lipid levels are associated with severe diabetic retinopathy. For preventing visual threatening complications of diabetic retinopathy, the degree of arteriolosclerosis and serum lipid levels should be carefully monitored in the evaluation of diabetic retinopathy.

Subcorneal pustular dermatosis is a chronic, benign, relapsing pustular eruptions characterized histologically by subcorneal pustules which contain abundant neutrophils. We report a case of subcorneal pustular dermatosis occured in a 71-year-old male with typical climcal lesions. Biopsy of a pustule showed a subcorneal cavity with numerous neutrophils, which were also scattered throughout the Malpighian layer below. The result of imrnunofluorescent studies was negative. His eruption is controlled by DDS (25-100mg daily) but the eruptions recur quickly on sessation of the drug.

To determine the types of metabolic a cidosis using anion gap in acute infantile diarrhea and to correlate it with clinical outcome, we examined 103 infants admitted with acute diarrhea. The serum electrolytes (sodium, potassium, chloride, phosphorus), creatinine, CO2 content and anion gap were measued on first admission day. They were classified group A with normal anion gap (8~16mEq/L) and group B with increased anion gap (>16mEq/L). The results were as follows. 1) The number of group A with normal anion gap (11.6+/-3.3mEq/L) was 62 and the number of group B with incresed anion gap(21.1+/-5.5mEq/L) was 38. 2) The duration of diarrhea was significantly prolonged in group B (9.0+/-2.5 days), compared with group A (5.9+/-1.1 days)(p<0.001). 3) The duration of admission was significantly prolonged in group B(5.6+/-2.2 days), compared with group A (4.+/-01.4days)(p<0.001). 4) Infants in group B, compared with group A, were significantly more severe dehydrated (p.
