Just as hyperbetalipoproteinemia is the most common kind of familiar hyperlipoproteinemia, hyperprebetalipoproteinemia or increased very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) and its associated hypertriglyceridemia is an abnormality frequently found in association with several metabolic and nutritional disorders. This VLDL abnormality is demonstrable in high percentage of insulin dependent diabetic children before they receive treatment. It is also observed in many older, overweight, insulin resistant diabetic, with poor control of diabetes. An elevation of VLDL was also observed after ethanol intake. A mild to moderate degree of VLDL elevation is the most frequently observed from of clinical hyperlipidemia. Many investigators reported that hyperprebetalipoproteinemia (hypertriglyceridemia) is associated with an increasing incidence of coronary artery disease. As opposed to hyperbetalipoproteinemia, hyperprebetalipoproteinemia is prone to influence on the development of atherosclerosis in the middle and older aged persons which indicates the importance of triglyceride determination in these aged groups. There has been relatively rare study reported on the triglyceride metabolism in patients with congestive heart failure, essential hypertension and liver disease in Korea. This study was designed to determine serum triglyceride, free fatty acid and glycerol in the disease mentioned in Busan University Hospital between jan. 1975 and December 1976 and analized the change of lipid profile in each different condition. The results were as follows; 1. The mean of serum FFA, triglyceride and glycerol in the 37 normal were as follows 502.32+/-146.54microEq/L, 111.84+/-40.53mg% and 432.00+/-212.13microM/ml. 2. 23 patients with congestive heart failure showed a significant reduction in serum triglycerides (91.96+/-27.80mg%) and a significant increase in serum free fatty acid (576.77+/-129.67microEqL) and glycerol (432.50+/-212.13microM/ml). 3. In 15 patients with essential hypertension a significant elevation of serum triglycerides (149.38+/-42.28mg%) was noted. 4. In 13 patients with liver cirrhosis, a reduction in serum triglycerides (80.50+/-34.27mg%) was noted.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the usefulness of Gd-DTPA enhanced MR imaging in determining the metastatic lymph nodes in uterine cervical carcinoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Sixty nine patients with histologically proven cervical carcinoma underwent Gd-DTPA enhanced MR imaging. One hundred and thirty-eight pelvic regions(69 right,69 left) in 69 patients were analyzed for lymph node metastases. Pelvic lymph nodes were considered to be abnormal if they were greater than lcm in diameter and were enhanced on postcontrast T1 weighted images. RESULTS: Metastatic lymph nodes were found in 22 pelvic regions by surgicopathologic examinations. On MR imaging there were 14 true positives, 106 true negatives, 10 false positives and 8 false negatives. Gd-DTPA enhanced MR image had an accuracy of 86.9%, a sensitivity of 58.3%, a specificity of 91.4%, a positive predictive value of 58.3% and negative predictive value of 92.9% in evaluation of pelvic lymph node metastases. CONCLUSION: MR imaging with contrast enhancement may be useful in the evaluation of pelvic lymph node metastases in patients with uterine cervical carcinoma.

Conjunctival bacterial cultures for 113 neonates who were delivered by cesarean section or vaginal delivery were performed within 30 minutes after birth. These neonates were in the condition of no eye drops applied. The 43 newborns were delivered by cesarean section(CS group) and the 70 newborns were delivered vaginally(VD group). The 10 newborns(P1) (14 eyes(P2)) in the CS group and the 29 newborns(41 eyes) in the VD group showed culture positivity. These differences between two groups were statistically significant(p1, p2<0.05). The CS group had significantly fewer species and colony forming units cultured per subject (0.395 +/- 0.821(p3), 5.116 +/- 27.095(p4) than the VD group(0.971 +/- 1.393, 25.843 +/- 62.285) (p3,p4<0.05). Coagulase negative staphylococci were predominantly isolated in the CS group and coagulase negative staphylococci, gram positive bacilli, E. coli, nonfermenting bacilli, and S. aureus in the VD group. Therefore it was found that the conjunctiva of the newborns delivered by cesarean section bore significantly fewer bacteria and need less prophylactic measures than that of newborns delivered vaginally.

PURPOSE: Citrate is a well recognized inhibitor of the formation of urinary calcium stones, and hypocitraturia plays an important role in the recurrent calcium urolithiasis. We evaluated the biochemical effects of dietary natural fruit juice in calcium stone formers with hypocitraturia in an attempt to decrease or eliminate the need for pharmacological therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This prospective study included 26 women and 34 men (mean age 42.5 years) with documented calcium urolithiasis. Among 60 patients, hypocitraturia(<320mg/24-hour urine) was detected in 40. Forty patients with hypocitraturia were divided into each 20 patient groups, one for orange juice and the other for grape juice. Twenty patients without hypocitraturia were also divided into each 10 patient groups for the controls. Each bottle of orange and grape juice measures 180ml in volume, which contains citrate of 1.22gm and 0.65gm, respectively. All 60 patients consumed juices at regular intervals, 4 bottles a day for 14 days. Blood and 24-hour urine sample were obtained for biochemical analysis after 7 and 14 days of juice therapy and compared to the baseline values of pre-juice therapy. RESULTS: The administration of natural fruit juice, either orange or grape, did not result in any significant change in serum biochemical study in all 60 patients(p>0.05). But, levels of urinary citrate were significantly increased in 29(97%) patients in orange juice group(n=30) and were normalized in 19(95%) patients with hypocitraturia. In grape juice group(n=30), levels of urinary citrate were significantly increased in 28(93%) patients and were normalized in 18(90%) patients with hypocitraturia. But, in hypocitraturic patients taking orange juice, urinary oxalate increased in 12(60%) patients. The natural juice therapy was well tolerated. Some G-I trouble occured(11%) but did not require cessation of therapy. Cirtate supplementation with natural fruit juice increased urinary citrate more than 1.5-2 times, but increased urinary oxalate value in orange juice group with hypocitraturia. CONCLUSIONS: Natural fruit juices, orange and grape, are well tolerated dietary source of citrate, and may be useful as adjunctive treatment for patients with hypocitraturic calcium urolithiasis.
