1.Hypersensitivity pneumonitis induced by oyster mushroom spores.
Journal of Asthma, Allergy and Clinical Immunology 1998;18(1):84-89
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis due to the inhalation of oyster mushroom(pleurotos ostreatus) was demonstrated in a 44-year-old man who had cultiviated for 4 years. He had suffered from dyspnea, cough, myalgia and fever in the evening after working at first. After them he has experienced dyspnea aggravated. He showed not only positive reaction to the intradermal test but also to the bronchial challenge test such as 6 hr after inhalation falling down of FVC, FEV p, and DLCO in pulmonary function test and leukocytosis with fever upto 38.2C with antigenic extract of oyster mushroom spore. The size of spore was approximately 3.5 when measured by transmission electron microscopy.

6.Sleep Apnea in Older Adults.
Sleep Medicine and Psychophysiology 2007;14(1):13-19
Sleep disordered breathing is highly prevalent in the elderly and affects older men and women similarly. Nocturia, cardiovascular diseases, cognitive impairment, traffic accidents and repeated falls are common manifestations of sleep apnea in the elderly and sleep study may be indicated in these patients. When a sleep study is planned, reliable markers of respiratory efforts and a tibial EMG should be included because central sleep apneas and periodic leg movements are common in the elderly patients. Although cardiovascular morbidity and mortality seem to be lower in the elderly than in middle-aged adults, these may not be as low as commonly believed. Excessive daytime sleepiness, cognitive dysfunction and nocturia can be improved by effective treatment with continuous positive airway pressure and a therapeutic trial should be recommended to all symptomatic patients. It is still unclear whether sleep apnea in older adults is a specific entity or the same disease as in younger adults. Further clinical research is warranted.

We described here a case of hyperkeratosis of the nipple and areola. A 23-year- old woman had a verrucous thickening and brownish discoloration on her right nipple and areola that had been present for 4 yeare. The only symptom was an intermittent mild itching sensation. The patient had no other additioa.al hyperkeratotic conditians. She was not married and had never had a pregnancy. Riopsy spccimen showed papillomatous elongation of the epidermis and edema, of the underlying papillary eonnective tissue. The epidermis was parakeratotic and hyperpigmented, and showed focal intercellular and intracellular edema. The present case seems to be the nevoid form by the Levy-Franckel classification. The world literature was briefly reviewed.
