The purpose of this study was to investigate effects of nutrition education program and pamphlet for the lower grades elementary students focused on individual daily needed food exchange units using Food Exchange System. Program consisted of four lessons (40 min/lesson), "5 major nutrients & function", "6 food group and sources", "daily needed food exchange units for normal body weight", and "smart snack choice and exercise". Pamphlet as activity book was developed for the program. The subjects were 3rd grade elementary students (educated group, 31 vs. non-educated group, 31). Educated group were lessoned as group and/or individual. We examined the differences in nutrition knowledge, dietary attitudes, dietary intakes and satisfaction of the program and pamphlet. In educated group, there were positive improvements on nutrition knowledge score "function and foods of 5 nutrients" and on dietary attitudes "type of breakfast and snacks". In the evaluation of dietary intakes according to KDRI, there were positive improvements on intakes level of riboflavin, vit. C, folate, Ca, P, Fe and Zn in educated group. In satisfaction with the program and pamphlet, contents, font size, visual, figure, difficulty and program curriculum were over 2.90/3.0. It showed that the developed nutrition education program and pamphlet focused on individual daily needed food exchange units using Food Exchange System improved nutrition knowledge, dietary attitudes and nutrients intake level in the lower grades elementary students.

BACKGROUND: Recently, low fluence collimated Q-switched (QS) Nd:YAG laser has drawn attention for the treatment of melasma. However, it needs a lot of treatment sessions for the substantial results and repetitive laser exposures may end up with unwanted depigmentation. OBJECTIVE: We evaluated the clinical effects and safety of the combinational treatment, using intense pulsed light (IPL) and low fluence QS Nd:YAG laser. METHODS: Retrospective case series of 20 female patients, with mixed type melasma, were analyzed using medical records. They were treated with IPL one time, and 4 times of weekly successive low fluence Nd:YAG laser treatments. At each visit, digital photographs were taken under the same condition. Melanin index (MI) and erythema index (EI) were measured on the highest point on the cheekbones. Modified melasma area and severity index (MASI) scores were calculated by two investigators using digital photographs. RESULTS: The mean values of MI and EI decreased significantly after treatments. The modified MASI score has decreased by 59.35%, on average. Sixty percents of the participants did not require any more treatments, and no clinical aggravations were observed during the follow-up period (mean 5.9 months). CONCLUSION: IPL and low fluence laser may elicit a clinical resolution in the mixed type melasma with long term benefits.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate effects of a nutrition education focused on Food Exchange System for the higher grades elementary children. Nutrition education lessons (40 min/lesson, 4 times), '5 major nutrients and functions', '6 food groups', 'daily needed energy and food exchange units', 'good choice of snacks and balanced exercise' were provided to elementary students (5th grade students). This research was based on the data from two groups of elementary school children in the 'education' group (n = 31) and 'non-education' group (n = 31). We assessed the changes in dietary attitude, food habit and nutrition knowledge using questionnaire and nutrient intake using 24hr recall method by nutrition education using the developed pamphlet. After education, there was a significant difference in the dietary attitude score only in attitude of 'balanced meal' (p < 0.001) in the education group compared to the non-education group. In food habit, there were significant positive changes in the type of breakfast and in the priority of choosing snack in the educated group. In nutrition knowledge, there were significant increases in scores of 'function of carbohydrate' (p < 0.05), 'function of fat' (p < 0.01), 'function of vitamin' (p < 0.01), 'foods of carbohydrate' (p < 0.01), and 'foods of vitamin' (p < 0.01) in the educated group. After education,carbohydrate: protein: fat (CPF) ratio was significantly different between the two groups (education group, 59 : 16 : 26 vs. non-education group, 63 : 15 : 23). In evaluation of nutrient intake by Dietary Reference Intakes for Koreans (KDRIs), there were significant positive effects in energy (p < 0.05), thiamin (p < 0.05), riboflavin (p < 0.05), vitamin C (p < 0.05), phosphorus (p < 0.01), Fe (p < 0.01) and zinc (p < 0.01) in the education group compared to the non-education group. In conclusion, the developed 4 times' nutritional education pamphlet focused on individual daily energy requirements and food exchange units using food exchange system for higher grades' elementary student may positively change nutrition knowledge and dietary intakes.

A 75-year old man with esophageal cancer presented with mental status change and seizures. He was under cisplatinand developed several times of generalized tonic-clonic seizures. The EEG (electroencephalography) showed triphasic waves and slowed background activity. He was diagnosed with status epilepticus and encephalopathy caused by cisplatin. He was treated with anticonvulsants and cisplatin was replaced by docetaxel. His mentality recovered completely and he had no more seizure. We conclude that physician using cisplatin should be aware of this rare complication.

BACKGROUND: We assessed the accuracy of staging in evaluation of bronchial invasion thus found the role of CT in patients who underwent resective surgery in primary lung cancer. Materials and METHODS: Authors retrospectively analized the preoperative CT scans of 156 patients receiving pneumonectomy(n=95) and lobectomy(n=61). Among lobectomy patients 7 patients subsequently performed pneumonectomy because of positive resection margin of bronchus in frozen biopsy. We also retrospect lively analized CT scans of non-operated 60 patients who Performed sufficient bronchoscopic biopsy. Bronchial wall thickness more than 3mm, irregular wall thickening find reduction of diameter by CT were defined as bronchial invasion. The pathologic examination of resection margin were positive in 20, stump recurrence occurred in 6 of the operated group, and the pathologic examination of biopsy of bronchial wall were positive in 34 of the non operated group, and these were all regarded as bronchial invasion. RESULTS: The CT assessment of bronchial invasion revealed low sensitivity (11.5%), low positive predictability(38%), but high specificity(96%) and relatively high accuracy (84%) in the operated group and higher sensitivity (62%), higher positive predictability(95%) in non-operated group. CONCLUSION: In lung cancer patients who underwent operation CT showed very low sensitivity and positive predictability In evaluation of bronchial invasion Because the usefulness of CT in evaluation of bronchial invasion is limited, therefore aggressive fiberoptic bronchoscopic biopsy is thought to be necessary before surgical attempt.

Purpose:
We evaluated changes in the tear film parameters of the corneal surface, and their correlations with Munk scores,based on corneal topographic scans of patients with nasolacrimal duct obstructions who underwent dacryocystorhinostomy(DCR). We explored whether tear parameters can serve as useful indicators of functional surgical success.
Methods:
We assessed 72 eyes of 45 patients diagnosed with nasolacrimal duct obstruction who underwent DCR. Tear film parameterswere measured via corneal topography (Keratograph® 5M) once before, and three times after surgery, and includedtear meniscus height (TMH), and the initial and average keratographic tear break-up time (NIKBUT-first and NIKBUT-average,respectively; measured noninvasively).
Results:
The three postoperative TMH values were 0.31 ± 0.20, 0.30 ± 0.22, and 0.29 ± 0.15 mm, all of which were significantlylower than the preoperative value of 0.48 ± 0.29 mm (all, p < 0.001). Three months after surgery, the NIKBUT-first (6.90 ± 3.39seconds) was significantly shorter than the preoperative value (8.39 ± 5.34 seconds; p = 0.030). The preoperative NIKBUT-averagedid not differ significantly from the values at the three postoperative timepoints (p = 0.756, p = 0.753, and p > 0.999).Changes in the Munk score after surgery correlated significantly with changes in the TMH (r = 0.46, p < 0.001). When functionalsuccess was defined as a Munk score ≤ 1, the area under the curve (AUC) value corresponding to the ability of TMH to definefunctional success of 0.995, was statistically significant (cut-off of 0.31 mm; p < 0.001).
Conclusions
The TMH DCR correlated significantly with the Munk score, which is a quantitative measure of clinical symptomseverity. The ability of TMH to define functional surgical success was excellent.
