The authors did clinical analysis for 37 cases, ranging from 5 to 13 year old of age and following result obtained. 1. In group I partial involved type had brightful prognosis even in the neglected the cases. 2. Ischeal brace did not give any help to group II & III but in group I, it gave some help to the prognosis. 3. In untreated cases of old age group developed early arthritic changes. 4. The inital radiological bony changes in early L-C-P. cases was the demineralization of the subchondral area and subsequently subohondral vaccum phenomena followed.

BACKGROUND: Elevated plasma homocysteine concentrations are an independent risk factor for vascular disease. The metabolism of homocysteine is closely related to vitamin B12 and folic acid. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the correlation between homocysteine and vitamin B12 as well as folic acid in patients with coronary artery disease. METHODS: Sixteen patients, in whom coronary angiography revealed more than 50% of stenosis at least in one coronary vessel, were enrolled as the patient group, and sixteen hypertensive subjects were selected as the control group. Blood was collected in the peripheral vein to measure the concentrations of homocysteine, vitamin B12, and folate. We evaluated the correlation between homocysteine, vitamin B12 and/or folate in both groups. RESULTS: Total plasma homocysteine concentrations were higher in the coronary artery disease group than in the control group. There were no significant differences in the folate and vitamin B12 levels between the coronary artery disease group and the control group. In the control group, the concentrations of homocysteine showed negative correlation with both vitamin B12 and folate concentrations, but similar trends were not observed in the coronary artery disease group.

Retroperitoneal hemorrhage from a ruptured suprarenal artery aneurysm is very rare. We report on a 34-year-old man who underwent selective angiography for diagnosis and treatment of retroperitoneal hemorrhage for suprarenal artery aneurysm. The patient made a full recovery with no evidence of further hemorrhage.

The physical conditions of the Koreans aged 10-30 were studied by obtaining physical and nutritional indices on a sample of 10,535 males and 7,175 females which were surveyed in 1986 National Anthropometric Survey for the purpose of grasping the state of arts of the physique and physical development of Korean. The summary results are as follows :1. Anthropometric measurements : 1) Compared with the results of 1979 survey, the stature and body weight in young ages increased markdly while the sitting height increased a little or rather decreased in the males aged above 16 and in the females aged above 14. The chest circumference shows similar or rather decreased values compared with that of the past. 2) Compared with the results of 1984 anthropometric survey in Japan, the stature and body weight of the Korean young males and females in ages up to 14 show larger values than those of the Japanese. But in ages above 15, those of the Korean show similar or rather smaller values than those of the Japanese. In chest circumference, the Korean turn out to be smaller than the Japanese up to age 16. 3) Compared with the results of 1977 anthropometric survey in U.S.A., difference in the stature, chest circumference and body weight between the Korean and the American start to appear around age 12, but in sitting height there is no big difference.2. Physical and nutritional indices by ages : 1) The relative body weit to stature increases linearly up to age 16 in the males and up to 14 in the females and is larger in the females than the males at ages between 11 to 13. Compared with the results of 1979, it decreased slightly, which indicates that the growth of stature was more prominent than that of body weight. 2) The relative sitting height to stature decreased by 2-3 points than in 1979 which means that the lower part of the body grows more, and the values in the males at age 14 and in the females at age 12 are smallest. Compared with the Japanese, it shows 2-3 points smaller value. 3) The relative chest circumference shows 1-3 points smaller value compared with that of 1979, but similar vaiue compared with that of the Japanese. 4) The R hrer indices, compared with the 1979 data, become smaller in the males at ages above 12 and larger in the females above 12. But the Korean shows similar R hrer index values compared with the Japanese. 5) The Pelidisi indices of the nutritional status turn out to be increasing with advancing ages and show 2-3 points larger values compared with the past. Compared with the Japanese, the pelidisi indices of the Korean males are similar but those of the Korean females are larger. 6) The surface areas of body increase lineally up to age 15 in the males and age 13 in the females which shows a similar tendency with the past.3. Estimation of mean body weight in the Korean : A equation for the estimation of body weight in the Korean by age, sex and stature is developed.
