Epiderniologic description of the tinea capitis of adults was made for the cases detected in Taegu city for 11 years from January 1978 to December 1988. 1. Totalnumber of adult patients(20 years or older) were 41(2.0%) out of 2,029 cases of all tiena capitis. Among 41 patients, 34 cases were detected between 1983 and 1988. 2. Clinically 24 patients were superficial tinea capitis and 17 patients were kerion celsi. 3. Age of the patients ranged from 21 to 85 years with an average of 58.5 years and mode interval of 61-70 years. Patients over 50 years of age accounted for 70.7% of all csses. 4. Sex distribution of the cases was 39 females(95.1%) and 2 males(4.9%). 5. Causative agents isolated from the patients were Microsporum canis in 36 cases, Trichophyton verrucosum in 2 cases, T. mentagrophytes, T. ferrugineum and T. rubrum in 1 case, respectively. 6. Solitary lesion was most common and alopecia was not prominent in most of the cases. The most frequent site of involvement was frontal and posterior scalp. At initial exarnination, 5 cases were misdiagnosed as seborreic dermatitis and 1 case as multiple folliculitis. 7. Sources of infection were presurned to be cat in ll cases, cattle in 2 cases and the rests were unidentified. Interfarnilial infection was observed in 5 cases.

This study investigated the stress of community residents in Kwang-Ju and Chonnam areas by using the General Health Questionnaire(GHQ-60) as a instrument of stress measurement. The number of subject were 445 residents who lived in three areas (large city, middle city, and rural area) and they were individually interviewed in March, 1994. The result of study showed that the degrees of stress measured by GHQ-60 were statistically significant in the residents' area, age. sex variables: (a) the residents in middle city among three area had the highest level of stress: (b) the resident who were more than 60 in age had the highest level of stress: (c) the female resident had more stress than male residents: (d) particularly, the residents who were more than 60 years old in the middle city had the highest level of stress. Further, the results of factor analysis showed that there were three factors of social dysfunction, depression and anxiety, and psychosomatic symptom. The social dysfunction factor was statistically significant in both age and resident area variables. The depression and anxiety factor was statistically significant in the residents' area, age. sex variables. The psychosomatic symptom factor was statistically significant in both age and sex variables. The study suggested that they should give a special attention to solve the old people's stress because stress was closely related to residents age.

Parencymal pulmonary endometriosis is a rare gynecologic problem, characterized by cyclic hemoptysis. Lung is the origin of hemoptysis. The diagnosis is based upon the clinical history and exclusion of other causes of recurrent hemoptysis, changes in the radiologic findings of chest lesion associated with menstrual cycle. We describe three women with recurrent hemoptysis during menstruation and localized lesion on computerized tomography (CT) scanning. The patients were treated with gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist or surgery. We represent three cases with a brief review of literature.
