We present a case of pemphigus vulgaris developed during pregnancy. The clinical features of this patient were similar to those of hetpes gestationis. By immunofluorescence studies we found that the patient's serum contained autoantibodies to intercellular substance of epidermis. Direct immunofluorescence microscopy of a perilesional skin also demontrated immunoglobulin deposition in the intercellular areas. Additionally we did in vitro C3 staining for further confirmation of the diagnosis but it was negative in basement membrane zone. This patient was initially treated with corticosteroid and azathioprine. Several months later gold compound was given instead of azathioprine and corticosteroid with good therapeutic response.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the morphologic changes of the bile canaliculi and its associated structures of the liver induced by common bile duct ligation(CBDL) in the rat. The canalicular surface and lateral surface of the dry-fractured hepatocytes was studied with scanning electron microscopy at 1~6 weeks post ligation. The first week after CBDL, the bile canaliculi were dilated. The microvilli were increased in number and the lumens contained granular materials After 2 weeks or more, the bile canaliculi were dilated to a variable degree, and with irregularity, measuring from 1.5 to 5 micrometer in diameter, and in the advanced stage, the canaliculi showed blunting and the disappearance of microvilli. Some canaliculi had sprouting side branches. At 4~6 weeks post-ligation, the lateral surface of the hepatocytes also showed some irregularity and a tortuous appearance, and numerous small sized microvillous projections were formed. The tubular structures of the proliferated SER distributed adjacent to the lateral surface of the hepatocytes, and the direct connection of a tubular structure and the cytoplasmic membrane was observed. These results suggest that the deformity and loss of microvilli of bile canaliculi reflect the disturbance of bile secretion from the hepatocytes. And prolonged obstruction of bile flow may result in bile excretion via the lateral surface of hepatocytes.

PURPOSE: This study was to investigate difficulties in daily activities and tingling from patients having treatment of FOLFOX chemotherapy after colon resection. METHOD: This study included 103 patients hospitalized for FOLFOX chemotherapy in one of the university affiliated hospital from August 1, 2008 through September 30, 2009. Data were collected using the questionnaire comprised general symptoms, tingling, difficulties in daily activities and coping behavior. Using the SPSS 14.0 program, data analytic methods include Chi-Square test, ANOVA, Scheffe's test. RESULTS: The tingling sensation occurred in hands, feet, mouth, throat. Contacts with cold objects and the number of chemotherapy cycle worsen tingling sensation. Patients experienced difficulties in daily activities such as personal hygiene, kitchen work, eating cold food, sleeping cold, using fine motors like button up, writing, or using knife. The coping behavior included drinking warm water, sleeping warm, using gloves and socks, wearing comfortable shoes, massaging hands and getting help from supporters. CONCLUSION: An educational guideline for promoting coping behavior to relieve tingling sensation and difficulty in daily living in patients with FOLFOX chemotherapy is needed.

A 38-year-old man, with recurrent oral ulcers for 10 years, was admitted because of recent aggravation of odynophagia and sore throat. About 4 years earlier, he had been performed abdominal surgery for intestinal perforation. Gastrofiberscopic examination showed small round ulcers at hypiopharynx and 6cm sized longitudinal linear ulcer at mid esophagus. Biopsy specimens at mid-esophagus showed chronic inflammation. Besides oral ulcer, he had perianal ulcers and skin rashes. He was managed with steroid, colchicine and sulfasalazine under the diagnosis of esophageal involvement in Behcet's disease. After 3 months from discharge, esophagogram and gastrofiberscopic examination showed some improved appearance, but symptoms recurred for steroid tapering. He has been followed in much improved status for 8 months after discharge.

Serum CA 125 was measured during early chemotherapy in 34 patients from January, 1991 to December, 1994 with ovarian cancer to investigate if serial measurmemts of antigen level could be used as a prognostic parameter. Serum CA 125 was determined after the first, second, and third course of chemotherapy. There was significant correlation between high serum CA 125 levels(>35U/ml) after the third course of chemotherapy and advanced FIGO stage, large residual tumor volume after cytoreductive surgery, but there was no significant correlation with patient age, tumor differentiation, and hitologic type. And high serum level of CA 125 after the third course of chemotherapy was significantly correlate with poor response to chemotherapy(p<0.0001), but there was no significant correlation with the finding of second-look laparotomy. CA 125 was a significant parameter in all three courses of chemotherapy but its correlation with 5-year survival was improved with the number of courses of the chemotherapy. Patientswith high serum CA 125 level(>35U/ml) after the third course had a 0% 5-year survival. This should be compared with a 89.5% 5-year survival in patients who had serum CA 125 level of 35U/ml or less(p<0.0001). As a consequence of this study, chemotherapy of patients with high CA 125 levels after the third course may be discontinued and replaced by other chemotherapy or palliative therapy.

PURPOSE: This study was conducted to investigate the relations among gratitude, depression, and psychological well-being among clinical nurses. METHODS: The participants were 411 clinical nurses, working in U city. Data were collected during the four months, April to June, 2012. Data were analyzed using descriptive analysis, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients and multiple regression with the SPSS/WIN 20.0 program. RESULTS: The mean scores for gratitude and psychological well-being were above average. The mean score for depression presented a probable depression level. Psychological well-being in clinical nurses was significantly correlated with gratitude (r=.55, p<.001) and depression (r=-.62, p<.001). The significant predictors of psychological well-being for clinical nurses were depression (beta=-.47, p<.001) and gratitude (beta=.34, p<.001), which explained 48.0% of the variance in psychological well-being. CONCLUSION: The results indicate that it is necessary to develop depression reduction and gratitude enhancement programs to improve the psychological well-being of clinical nurses.

A case of Down's syndrome in which transient myeloproliferative disorder developed is described. In hematologic findings of peripheral blood, high blast cell count on 1st day of birth had been found and after serial follow-up for several weeks, decrease in WBC counts from 22.6x10(9)/L to 7.5x10(9)/L and blast cell counts from 31% to 2% occurred. The karyotype of his patient was 45,XY, der (13;14) (q10;q10), der(14;21) (q10;q10), +21. Karyotyping of his father revealed 45,XY, der(13;14) (q10;q10). Without specific chemotherapy, hematologic and clinical recovery was occurred within several weeks. We deport a case of transient myeloproliferative disorder in Robertsonian translocatlon type of Down's syndrome accompanying another Robertsonian translocation, der (13;14) (q10;q10), inherited from his father.
