Poor R-Wave Progression(PRWP) of precordial leads is frequently encountered electrocardiographic findings of uncertain significance and has simply been deemed as suggestion of anterior myocardial infarction without concrete ground. 217 cases with poor R-Wave Progression have been analyzed on clinical records and results are as follows. 1) PRWP was most frequently found in fifties and sixities, comprising 63.9% of the subjects. 2) Co-existent disease entities with PRWP were classified into three categories, cardiovascular diseases, chronic lung diseases and normal variants. 3) The cardiovascular diseases related with PRWP were mainly hypertensive diseases, comprising 59.8% of cardiovascular diseases, followed by ischemic heart disease, valvular heart disease and cardiomyopathies. 4) PRWP may be an early sign of acute myocardial infarction in a certain part of cases, which was endorsed by typical clinical symptoms and enzyme studies. 5) As the criterion of PRWP, V3R equal to or less than 3 mm was thought more adequate for higher specificity rather than 4 mm.

The traditional treatment for the femoral shaft fractures in children is closed reduction by continuous traction, usually for 2–3 weeks, until the fracture has achieved partial stability, followed by spica cast immobilization. Fifty three cases, from 3 to 10 years of age, has been treated with closed reduction and immediate application of hip spica csst; all of them were closed fractures of femoral shaft and were not associated with head, abdominal, or vascular injuries. Any angulations in excess of acceptable ranges were corrected with wedging the cast; any overridings in excess of acceptable ranges were corrected by skeletal traction for 1 week, followed by incorporation of the pin to the cast. The resultant overriding and angulation of fragments were within acceptable ranges, and complications were not significant.This method of treatment not only is likely easy in nursing care and comfortsble to the patients but also has some advantages of short stay in the hospital, better utilization of hospital beds, and costsaving. This immediate hip spica cast immobilization seems to be a good method of treatment for the femoral shaft fracture in children.

The goals of orthopaedic management of pelvic ring injuries are to achieve anatomical reduction and secure fixation of fragment and mobilize the patient as early as possible. Previously, pelvic ring injuries have been treated by a wide variety of conservative methods. Their application, however, necessitated a prolonged period of recumbency with associated likelyhood for many complications and did not facilitate accurate reduction and stabilization of most types, resulting in pelvic deformity, non-union and late sacroiliac joint instability. During the past decade, experience with techniques of external and internal fixation of the pelvis has grown and the goals of the methods include provision for sufficient pelvic stability in satisfactory position so that immediate postoperative bed-to-chair transfers can be undertaken and complications due to prolonged recumbency and pelvic deformity can be markedly reduced. We reviewed 47 cases of unstable pelvic ring injuries treated at the depatment of orthopaedic surgery, Dongkang Hospital from January 1984 to December 1987, and the results were as follows ;1. The highest incidence was in the 4th decade and sex ratio between male and female was 1.6:1 2. The most common cause of injury was traffic accident (68.2%) followed by falling down accident (19%) 3. Associated injuries occurred in 28 cases (60%): injuries of the extremities were most common (30%) followed by head injury (13%) and genitourinary tract injury (11%). 4. According to classification of Pennal et al, lateral compression injury was most common (51.1%). Bucholz Group II injury was 57% of all and Group III, 43%. 5. Operative methods, with which 21 cases were treated, were anterior external fixation with AO apparatus or symphyseal plating in Bucholz Group II injuries ; and external fixation, internal fixation (anterior and/or posterior) or both, in Group III injuries. 6. Advantages of operative treatment of unstable pelvic ring disruptions were, by giving stability, early mobilization; easy care of associated injuries, open wounds and nursing; prevention of possible complications of prolonged recumbent position; rapid reduction of pain; and prevention of late complications such as lumbosacral or pelvic pain and gait disturbance.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: The body composition changes in aging increased the risk of metabolic disorder. Recent dietary studies have increasingly focused on the correlations between dietary patterns and chronic diseases to overcome the limitations of traditional single-nutrient studies because nutrients in food have complex relations that interact. SUBJECTS/METHODS: This study was conducted to classify a dietary pattern among Korean elderly using cluster analysis and to explore the relationships between dietary patterns and body composition changes in Korean elderly aged 65 years or older. The study subjects (n = 1,435) were individuals who participated in the Korean National Health Examination and Nutrition Survey (KNHANES) in 2011. RESULTS: There were three dietary patterns derived by cluster analysis in this study: 'Traditional Korean' (37.49% of total population), 'Meat and Alcohol' (19.65%) and 'Westernized Korean' (42.86%). The (1) 'Traditional Korean' pattern was characterized by high consumptions of white rice and low protein, low fat, and low milk products, while (2) 'Westernized Korean' pattern ate a Korean-style diet base with various foods such as noodles, bread, eggs and milk, (3) 'Meat and Alcohol' pattern had high consumptions of meat and alcohol. In body composition changes, compared with the 'Traditional Korean' pattern, the 'Meat & alcohol' pattern was associated with a 50% increased risk of having elevated BMI (kg/m2), 'Westernized Korean' pattern was associated with a 74% increased abnormality of ASM/Wt (kg) by logistics analysis. Most of the Korean adult population continues to follow ether a traditional Korean having beneficial effects for successful aging. However, the 'Traditional Korean' pattern showed low protein intake (0.7 g/kg), calcium intake, and vitamin D intake as well as low of appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASM (kg)) among 3 groups. CONCLUSIONS: Considering the low ASM, consumption of protein, calcium and vitamin D should be increased for Korean elderly health body composition.
