1.Clinical Study for drug Eruptions.
Korean Journal of Dermatology 1978;16(5):377-381
The series comprised 424 cutaneous reactions to drugs treated at the department of Dermatology, Medical college of Korea University, during the years 1969-1975. The whole series comprised 211 male(49. 8%) and 213 female(50. 2%) patients. Exanthernatous eruptions are the most frequent of all cutaneous manifestation of drug reactions. Antipyretic analgesics, antibiotics and antibacterial drugs were the three group inducing most drug reactions in the present study, following by herb drugs. Of the antipyretic anaIgesics, acetylsalicylic acid was the ones most of the involved, and sulfonamides were the most frequent cause of skin reactions induced by antibacterial drugs and penicillin and tetracycline were the frequent cause of skin reactions induced by antibiotics.

2.A Mycological Study on the Distribution of Candida Species in Normal Human Skin.
Korean Journal of Dermatology 1985;23(5):597-606
This study was done on 171 volunteers in order to investigate the present status of cutaneous normal flora of Candida species and the distribution of Candida species on the normal human skin in dermatologic clinic of Korea University Hospital from January, ]984 to December, 1984. Among the 171 volunteers, 115 strains of Candida species were identified by culture on the Sabouraud's dextrose agar media, germ tube test, sugar assimilation test, sugar fermentaion test and culture on corn meal with Tween 80 media, The results were summarized as follows: 1. The incidence of cutaneous normal flora of Candida species was 13, 5,5 (115 species among 855 sites) 2. Candida species were distributed in oral cavity(45 species), 4th interdigital toe web(39 species), groin(12 species), axilla(11 species) and 4th interdigital finger web(8 species) in order of frequency. 3, Of ll5 species, 45 species were cultured in summer, 27 species in autumn, 18 species in winter and 14 species in spring. 4 Of 115 Candida species, C. albicans(88 species), C. parapsilosis(12 species), C, tropicalis(8 species), C. guilliermondii(3 species) and C. stellatoidea(2 species) were identified. Two species could not be identified.

3.The Study of Changes in Arterial Blood Gas Finding with Time Interval.
Journal of the Korean Society of Emergency Medicine 2000;11(1):27-34
BACKGROUND: Arterial blood gas analysis are highly susceptible to preanalytic error due to improper method of obtaining or handling the blood sample before analysis. The error in measurement of blood gas analysis are loss of CO2 by exposure to atmospheric air, effect of anticoagulant itself, temperature difference between the experimental subject and the measuring electrode and metabolic change which occur between blood sampling and measurement. METHOD: To study the effect of the delay in estimation of blood gas and drawn blood on values of blood gas partial pressure and pH. Blood sample were divided into 2 groups according to the method of storage, group I stored at 24~25degrees C(room temperature) under anaerobic condition. ;group II stored at 0~4degrees C(refrigerator) under anaerobic condition. The samples were analyzed by time interval through 180 minutes in each group. RESULTS: The result were as follows: 1) PaO2 decreased significantly after 10 mins in group I, whereas it decreased significantly after 20 mins in group II. 2) PaO2 increased significantly after 20 mins in group I, whereas it increased significantly after 120 mins in group II. 3) pH decreased significantly after 60 mins in group I, whereas it decreased significantly after 120 mins in group II. 4) No significant changes of bicarbonate and SaO2 were noted in each group CONCLUSION: From above results, it would be advisable to analyze the sample in a short period of time or to store in a refrigerator when the measuring will be delayed. So we highly recommend that blood gas analysis should be performed as soon as possible after sampling, especially within 10 minutes.

4.Seridiagnosis of Syphilis.
Korean Journal of Dermatology 1981;19(1):87-92
The most frequently used serodiagnostic test for syphilis in Korea is VDRL test, which is one of several flocculation tests utilizing cardiolipin-lecithin as antigen. This test remains popular because it is easily performed, inexpensive, is standard for screening purposes, and is useful for following the serologic response to treatment. A common problem is weakly reactive (or 'rough' result) VDRL test or reactive VDRL in the absence of definite evidence of present or past syphilis; the diagnosis of syphilis in these cases should be confirmed by using the specific treponemal antigen tests. The Fluorescent Treponemal Antibody-Absorption (FTA-ARS) test is the result of continued attempts to improve the original FTA procedures. This test uses virulent T. pallidum (Nichols strain) as antigen and uses fluorescein-tagged antihuman globulin as reaction indicator. The FTA-ABS test is very sensitive in all stage of syphilis, especially in early syphilis. The FTA-ABS test was carried out on 448 persons with reactive and weakly reactive VDRL tests and divided the groups of routine physical check and out patients. (countinued..)

T.E,N. is characterized by large flaccid bullous eruption that has the appearance of the scalded lesion and has large sheets of the pilling off skin. This 49-year-old female patient was suffered from the erythematous skin lesions on the face and. upper chest since 8 hours after oral administration of sulfa drug for endametritis. These lesions spread to the about 80% of whole body surface, and changes to the characterastic flaccid bullous scalded lesion, within next 24 hours. This patient was treated with a massive systemic corticosteroid and antibiotics and etc,so complete recovery of the lesions were found in three case of T.E.N. due to sulfa drug is presented with brief review of literature.

Thrombosed capillary or vein is a dome-shaped or slightly lobulated moderately firm, blue black nodule arising either abruptly or gradually. There may be a rim of erythema or brownish pigmentation around it. Its clinical features are similar to a malignant melanoma. We report a case of thrombosed capillary or vein associated with angiokeratoma in 44-year old male patient who has a bean sized, dome-shaped, blue-black nodule and multiple hyperkeratotic pinhead sized dark red papules un scrotum.

A case of cutaneous sarcoidosis in the 66 year-old Korean female patient is presented. She shows typical skin manifestations of plaque type in the absence of other common objective evidence of systemic involvement. Diagnosis was confirmed by charcteristic histological findings and positive Kveim test with the support of other compatible clinical and biochemical findings. She had been followed up for 3 years since the first visiting. Recently chest X-ray, slit lamp examination and skin biopsies were taken again, but failed to reveal any significant interval changes.
