Our study was performed to evaluate the efficacy of anthralin-UVB therapy on patients with psoriasis. We studied twenty two patients suffering from plaque-type psoriasis of varying degrees of severity. The results can be summarized as follows. l. 2p patients(90.9%) out of the total 22 patients showed grade 4 improvement. The rernaining 2 patients failed to respond to treatment, 2. Arnong the improved 2Q patients, 2 patients who were treated more than 3p times for grade 4 improvement were excluded, so cleared patients were 18(81.8%). 3. Arnong the 18 cleared patients, the mean nurnber of therapy wasg. 6 for grade 3 and 12. 5 for grade 4 in the cases of trunk lesiona, and 13. 2 for grade 3 and 17. 8 for grade 4 in the cases of extrernities lesions. With above results, anth-ralin-UVB therapy was rnore effective in lesions of the trunk than in those of extremi.ties. 4. Notable side effects were pruritus in 6 patients(27.3pg), staining in 4 patients (18,2%), and 1ITltatioB in 2 patients(9.1%)

We performed anthralin comparative study(0.01% vs 0.1%) to assess the effectiveness of low-strengh anthralin therapy in 34 psoriatic patients and the resu1ts can be summarized as follows. 1. In the case of 13 patients using Burdick UVB larnp, in 1 patient the effect of 0.1% anthralin was superior to that of 0.01% anthralin from the start to the end of treatment, in 5 patients(38.5%) initially the effect of 0.1% anthralin was superior but in time became equal to that of 0.01% anthralin, and in 7 patients (53.8%) the effect of either side was same throughout the courae of the treatment. In the case of 21 patients using Waldmann UVB cabinet, there were 2(9.5 %), 3(14.3%) and 16 patients(76.2%) in the order named above. 2. The side effect of 0.1% anthralin was more severe than or at least the same as that of 0.01% anthralin in every patient who complained about side effects. So low-strengh anthalin-UVB phototherapy was thought to be the effective and alternative method of treatment particularly for the purpose of lessening the side effects.

Korean Journal of Dermatology 1986;24(3):345-353
Our study was performed to evaluate the efficacy of anthralin-UVB therapy for psoriasis by simplifying the conventional Ingram regimen, 34 patients(21 admitted, and 13 OPD patients) were included in our study and the resulti can be summarized as follows. 1. There were no cases of treatment failure. 16 patients(76. 2%) out of the 2l admitted patients and 7 patients(53.8%) out of the 13 OPD patients showed clearing. 2. In the case of the admitted patients, the mean numbers of therapy(days) of the improved patients reaching grade 4 were 12. 0(18. 1 days) in the trunk lesions and 15. 5 (22. 0 days) in the extremity lesions' and those of the cleared patients reaching grade 4 were 11. 2(16. 0 days) in the trunk lesions, and 13. 4(lg. 5 days) in the extremity lesions, but the difference was not significant statistically(pp o.ps). The difference between the therapeutic effects of the admitted and the OPD patients was significant statistically(p<0. 05). 3. There were some notable side effects such as staining, pruritus, and erythema, but there were no cases of therapy termination.

The status of DNA synthesis and the effect of UV radiation on the DNA synthesis were studied in mouse skin by microautoradiography. Mice exposed to 100mJ/cm of UVB were injected intradermally with tritiated thymidine, 5 minutes, 2, 6 and 24 hours after irradiation and biopsies were processed for light microscopic autoradiography, A total of 25 ICR female albino haired mice were used as subjects. We compared heavily labeled cells(>10 grains/nucleus) and sparsely labeled cells (3-10 grains/nucleus) in UVL irradiated skin with nonirradiated control skin. 1. Within 5 minutes after UVL exposure an apparent depression in the number of heavily labeled cells occurred. This reduction was statistically significant and remained so for at least six hours post,irradiation. By 24 hours after UVL exposure, the reduction was recovered to nearly control level. 2. By five minutes after UVL exposure, sparsely labeled cells were observed in basal cell layer and differentiated cell layer. The nurriber of sparsely labeled cells appeared highest at five minutes after UVL exposure and then tended to fall to nearly control level at 24 hours. This aberrant type of TdR H incorporation is thought to represent unscheduled DNA synthesis to repair pyrimidine dimers formed in UVL injured DNA molecules,

This study was designed to validate the usefulness of the near point of convergence(NPC)test in determination of dominant & non-domnant eyes in intermittent exotropia patients. We performed NPC test in 36 intermittent exotrpic patients, and then, determined the non-dominant eye which deviated outward beyond the NPC. The dominant eyes determined by the NPC were compared to those that were determined by amblyopia, sensory fusion and photophobia. Best corrected visual acuity was used to divide patients into two groups : 26 patients without amblyopia, and 10 with amblyopia. Among the amblyopia group, if the eyes with better visual acuity were taken as dominant eyes, then eight(80%)cases were identical with the NPC test and two(20%)cases were different. Ten patients had sensory anomaly, and among then, nine(90%)cases were identical with the NPC test and one(10%)case was different. Twenty six(64%)patients had photophobia in one eye and all(100%)cases were identical with the NPC test. In intermittent exotropia, determination of dominant eye by the NPC test showed high coincidence with other tests. Therefore, we suggest that the NPC test is an easy and accurate method in determining either the dominant or non-dominant eye for surgery.
