1.An Experimental Study on Comedogenic effect of Various Korean Cosmetocs.
Korean Journal of Dermatology 1978;16(4):273-279
Varioua articles have been reported that extemal contactants were the cause Acne venenata. The daily use of cosmetics are tbe cause of Acne minor in adult wamen. To distinguish this from other type of Acne venenata due to extemal contactants Kligman had coined the term Acne cosmetica, which is a low grade persistant acneiform eruption with occasional papulopustulea in adult women. The authors have tested a wide range of available cosmetics(Total twenty including four kinds of cold cream species, two of cleansing cream species, three of nutrient cream species, six of lotion species, three of foundation make up species and two of foreign cosmetics) using the rabbit ear assay recently popularized by Kligman in order to evaluate comedogenic effects of various Korean ccsmetics. The results a.re as follows. 1. Among these twenty facial cosmetics, We observed no comedogenccicy in two facial cosmetics, mildly comcdogenecity in twelve facial cosmetics, moderately comedo- genecity in four facial cosmetics and severe comedogenecity in two facial cosmetics. 2. Histologic gradings were paralleled the findings of tbe naked eye in up to 65% 3. There were significant differences on comedogenecity between Korean cosmetics and foreign cosmetics which used by Kligman. 4. There were no significant diffrences between cold cream species, cleansing cream species. nutrient, cream species, lotion species and foundation make up species. 5, There were various differences among twenty kinds of every cosmetic specie.

A case of multiple myeloma combined with stomach cancer and related literatures were reviewed. A 67 year-old male patient entered the hospital with dysphagia and weight loss for 3 months. Peripheral blood examination revealed anemia with rouleaux formation. Total protein of the serum was 9.9 g/dl with hyperglobulinemia (albumin 2.7 g/dl, globulin 7.2 g/dl, A/G ratio 0.375). On the electrophoresis and immunoelectrophoresis of the serum, the abnormal protein with the pattern of monoclonal gammopathy (IgG-K type) was shown. There were multiple variable sized osteolytic lesions on skull X-ray and abnormal hot uptakes of rips on bone scan and result of rib biopsy was plasmacytoma. Gastrofiberscopy was performed to search for the cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding, revealed stomach cancer, and the result of the gastric mucosal biopsy proved to be well-differentiated adenocarcinoma.

The giant cell tumor is a primary. neoplasm of bone characterized histollogically by a vascularized network of plumpish or ovoid stromal cells heavily interposed with multinucleated giant cells. The majority of cases occur in patients between 20 and 40 years old and in the long tubular bones, particuarly in proximity to the epiphysis. A rare case of giant cell tumor involving the patella was recently experienced by authors. Case summary with brief review of reference is presented.

The author obtained index of red cell volume distribution width(RDW) and other red cell indices in 210 patients of various hematoncologic conditions and 200 healthy control group using, an automated blood analyzer, Coulter Counter Model S-plus II. This study performed to classify various etiologic anemia based on the MCV and RDW, to evaluate availability to the differential diagnosis in korean anemic distoders somewhat different from etiologies of anemias in foreginers. In the most of cases, the increase or decrease of MCV were always combined the pararell changes of MCH and MCHC: But the values of MCV and RDW were not correlated in control group and patient group. So the terms of heterogenous of homogenous anemia were meaningful morphologic classification than hypochromic or normochromic anemia. The heterogenous microcytic anemia contained iron deficiency anemia. In heterogenous normocytic anemia, myelophthisic anemia, acute leukemia were contained. In heterogenous macrocytic anemia, megaloblastic anemia, hemolytic anemia were contained. The homogenous microcytic anemia was observed in anemia of chronic disorders. In homogenous normocytic anemia, acute blood loss, chronic leukemia, multiple myeloma were contained. The aplastic anemia was belonged to homogenous macrocytic anemia. The diagnostic significance of RDW in hemoglobinopathies is most importhant. But this study was not contained hemoglobinopathies. Instead RDW was very helpful to differential diagnosis of most common anemias, iron deficiency anemia and anemia due to chronic disorders in Korea.

In order to assess the epidermal glycogen in the epidermal hyperplastic disease, PAS(Periodic Acid Schiff) stain with or without diastase is used. Epidermal PAS positive reaction is significantly increased in psoriasis (90. 0%), verruca vulgaris (100%) and lichen simplex chronicus (100%) than control group (12, 5%) Epidermal PAS positive reaction is relatively increased in prurigo nodularis(66. 7 %) and chronic contact dermatitis (75%) Strong PAS positive reaction is noticed in 3 of 5 cases (60%) with verruca vulgaris, but none of 22 cases with psoriasis. It is suggested that epidermal glycogen epidermal hyperplasia and that the more glycogen accumulated. than control group (12. 5%) in 3 of 5 cases (60%) with verruca vulaccumulation is accompanied with the hyperplastic the epidermis is, the more glycogen accumulated.

BACKGROUND: Relative changes of astroglial volume constitute the major part of brain edema, which is related to delayed neuronal damage. Several factors including glutamate may contribute to astroglial swelling. Intravenous anesthetic, ketamine was known to restore neuronal damage by inhibiting NMDA receptor activity. Therefore, we decided to investigate the effect of ketamine on the astrocyte swelling by glutamate in the present study. METHODS: To analyze cell swelling in vitro, glial cell line, U1242MG was used. The effects of glutamate (1, 2, 3 mM), and glutamate with ketamine (1 mM) on the regulation of astrocyte volume were achieved by flow cytometry system. To eliminate the dead cells from experimental cell suspension and to assess cell viability, fluorescent dye propidium iodide was used. RESULTS: Glutamate addition (1, 2, 3mM) caused astroglial swelling both in calcium present and calcium absent buffer. The difference of cellular swelling dependent on glutamate concentration was only seen in calcium free buffer (p<0.05). Ketamine per se did not affect astroglial volume. However, when it was added to glutamate perfusion, 1 mM ketamine diminished cellular swelling by glutamate during first 10 minutes (p<0.05), and cellular shrinkage by glutamate after 1 hour incubation (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Ketamine (1 mM) is effective in the regulation of astroglial volume alterations induced by glutamate in both short time and long time perfusion.

One of the most difficult problems confronting the orthopedic surgeon today is what to do when faced with a large defect in a peripheral nerve. Recent advances in engineering and neurophysiology have improved our technical ability to understand the consequences of severing a nerve. We have treated a large traumatic ulnar nerve defect with microsurgical nerve graft technique. In a follow-up study of twehre monthes post surgery, the results were satisfactory.
