118 Cases of open tibia fractures treated in Chosun university Hospital were survayed and evaluated. Results: 1. The cases are predominantly male(80%) and most often in their 4th decade. 2. They were very often comminuted(44%) 3. Treatments consists of debridement with or without initial internal(plate and screws) or external (Hoffmann's device) fixations. The end results seems to be better in cases with initial fixations of bone(internal or external)than those treated with initial debridement and plaster cast immobilization only and osteosynthesis later.

Thirty-three cases of the fracture of the femur and tibia on the same limb were treated at the Orthopedic Department of the Chosun University Hospital during the period from January 1977 to December 1983. The following results were obtained. 1. The incidence of trauma was high in the young man, most frequent in the third decade (45.4%). 2. The most common cause of the fracture was traffic accident (81;8%). 3. The most common shape of the fracture was comminuted in both femur and tibia. 4. The common fracture site were middle one-third in both femur and tibia. 5. Eight patients were treated by conservative means on both femxr and tibia. The patients were treated by internal fixation on femur and by conservative means on tibia. Internal fixation was .done in ten patients on both femur and tibia. Two patients were treated by inteinal fixation on tibia and by conservative means on femur. Three patients were amputated. 6. Average healing time of fracture was 21 weeks in femur and 24.2 weeks in tibia. 7. Functional end results were assessed and rated with satisfactory results in rigid internal fixation of the femur and tibia.

In order to elucidate the biological effects of pulsating magnetic field in in vitro culture system we designed a pulsating magnetic apparatus using 120 Hertz, 24 Volt direct current. It can generate 63~225 Gauss in the experimental area of 90 mm petri dish, and has little thermal effect on the culture media in 37.5oC, 5% CO2. Human osteogenic sarcoma (HOS) cells were cultured in the pulsating magnetic field and the nuclear changes of cultured cells were observed routinely by hematoxylin staining, and apoptotic change was detected by ApopTag staining using both peroxidase and fluorescein labelings. Compared to the control group which formed well organized whorling pattern of HOS cell line in 3 days culture, the HOS cells cultured in the pulsating magnetic field for 12 hours or 24 hours grew irregularly and showed increased number of apoptotic cells. When the flow of pulsating magnetic field was interrupted by insertion of strong permanent magnetic bar (1000 Gauss, 5530 mm) beneath the petri dish during in vitro culture, the area of sparse pulsating magnetic field showed active proliferation and aggregation of HOS cells even in 24 hour exposure group. These data suggest that the pulsating magnetic field may play a role in inducing growth retardation and apoptosis of HOS cells. Furthermore, the hazardous effects of pulsating magnetic field can be lessened or nullified by the interruption of pulsating magnetic field with a strong permanent magnetic bar.

From January 1979 to December 1983, eighty-five patients who had forearm bone fracture were treated by four different methods at the Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Chosun University Hospital. The results were as follows: 1. Among 85 patients, 12 patients were radius fractures, 19 patients were ulna fractures, 54 patients were both forearm bone fractures. 2. Closed fractures were 70 patients and the open fractures were 15 patients. 3. The mst common fracture site was middle third of the both radius and ulna. 4. The treatments were closed reduction with cast immobilization, intramedullary nailing or plate and screw fixation. 5. The time required for radiological bone union were shorter in compression plate fixation gmup, than those treated with other fixation device. 6. Functional result was claasified according to the rating system of Smith and Sage. The open reduction and internal fixation group had better results than the conservatively treated group.

Osteogenesis imperfecta is a hereditary condition characterized by fragility of bone, deafness, blue sclera, laxity of joints and a tendency to improvement with age. Authors experienced osteogenesis imperfecta that develped over 3 generations in one pedigree. A 28 years old female exhibited severe anterior bowing deformity of left tibia. She has a past history of many times of bone fractures. She was treated with corrective osteotomy, plate fixation for correction of bowing deformity of left tibia and medullary nailing with fibular graft for paeudarthrosis of Rt. forearm bone.

In vivo 31P NMR spectroscopic study of forearm wrist flexor muscles was performed in two groups of volunteers composed respectively of 6 sedentaries and 6 canoe athletes. A continuous isometric contraction of endurance exercises was adopted in oder to assess the endurance capacity and recovery potential of skeletal muscles. Differences in high energy phosphorus metabolism between the sedentaries and athletes were evaluated with and emphasis on the intracellular pH and Pi/PCr ratio as indicators of high energy phosphorus metabolism. There were no differences of baseline pH and Pi/PCr ratio between the two groups. The athletes sustained the exercise at more acidic intracellular pH and at a higher Pi/PCr ratio of intracellular conditions for an all-out than did the sedentaries. The recovery rate of pH showed no difference between the two groups. There was a tendency of faster recovery of Pi/PCr in athletes showing half recovery time(T1/2) of 39.0±3.0 seconds as compared to that of sedentaries (55.7±7.5 seconds). The recovery rate of Pi/PCr as a function of Pi/PCr ratio at a given period of time was significantly faster in athletes than in sedentaries (P<0.001). The correlation coefficient of the recovery rate of Pi/PCr against the Pi/PCr ratio was 0.985 and 0.914 respectively for the athletes and sedentaries. The pH and the Pi/PCR ratio at an all-out state can be used as indicators of endurance capacity and the recovery rate of Pi/PCr, as a reovery potential of skeletal muscles.

Journal of the Korean Pediatric Society 1982;25(5):528-532
Authors observed two cases of Reye syndrome in 7 and 8 year old male patients who had begun to vomit after chickenpox. The interval between the onset of varicella rash and encephalopathy of Reye syndrome was 4 days in both these cases. The initial laboratory findings revealed increased serum transaminase and blood ammonia levels which returned to normal on 18 th and 11 th days, respectively, of hospital care. A brief review of literatures was presented.
