It is recognized not only by the health experts but also by the public that venereal diseases are remarkably increasing in these days. Therefore, every available measure for declining of the diseases are planned and implemented through case-finding, diagnosis, treatment, education and research. The author intended to compare and analyse infection rates of venereal diseases between reporting from the Ministry of Health and author's private V.D. clinic during 1961-1971. The following results are obtained through the study: 1. According to the report of the Ministry of Health, 45.0% of total examinees were sick with gonorrhea and 6.5% with syphilis, in one hand, on the other hand 78.7% with gonorrhea and 16.3% with syphilis at the author's clinic. 2. By both the report of the ministry and author, highest infection rates were found in 196601968, and this fact was considered by the higher infection rate of G.I. in same years. 3. Contrarily, the lowest infection rates were found out in 1970-1971 through both reports.

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study in intrauterine growth retardation(IUGR) is to assess the relationship between the Doppler flow velocimetry and pregnancy outcome. STUDY DESIGN: 356 normal and 159 growth retarded fetuses between 21 and 42 gestati- onal weeks were investigated retrospectively. All IUGR fetuses were divided into four gro- ups according to the results obtained by Doppler flow velocities as follows. 1) Group 1(n= 89) : patients had normal umbilical artery resistance index ( Rlu ) and normal middle cerebral artery resistance index ( Rlmca ) 2 ) Group 2 ( n= 9 ) : patients had normal Rlu and abnormal Rlmca 3 ) Group 3 ( n=25 ) : patients had abnormal Rlu and normal Rlmca 4) Group 4 ( n=36 ) : patients had abnormal Rlu and abnormal Rlmca. RESULTS: We obtained normal values of RIu and RImca in oriental. Abnormal cardiotoc- ography(CTG) findings and operative delivery for fetal distress were significantly increased in group 2(p < 0.05) and markedly increased in group 3 and 4 ( p < 0.01 ) compared with group 1. Adverse neonatal outcome was significantly increased in group 3 and 4 compared with group 1. There is significant increase of adverse neonatal outcome in group 4 compared with group 3 ( p < 0.05 ). CONCLUSIONS: We obtained the normal values of Rlu, Rlmca and cerebroplacental ratio ( CPR ) in oriental. Adverse neonatal outcome was significantly increased in group 2, 3 and 4 compared with group 1. There is significant increase of adverse neonatal outcome in gr- oup 4 compared with group 3. We also found a strong correlation between the CPR and adverse neonatal outcome in IUGR. In IUGR, centralization of the fetal circulation turned out to exist, resulting in a preferential shunting of blood flow to the fetal brain. Brain-sp- aring effect with Doppler flow velocimetry could be demonstrated by this result.

While studying Bombyx mori "Zipnuae" inoculated with an entomopathogenic fungus, Paecilomyces tenuipes, a mycoparasitic hymenoascomycete with a long neck was isolated from the silkworm rearing room. The fungus was identified as Syspastospora parasitica which has been recognized as a hyperparasite on various moniliaceous hyphomycetes. A descriptive illustration is presented in this study.

It is clearly defined through a number of authoritative studies that the age of menarche influenced by the various combined factors such as nutrition status, physical status, physical growth and development status, socio-economic status, locality, culture, education level, climate, rece heredity etc. In order to obtain statistical data regarding the menarche of Korean school girls, anthors investigated on 4207 middle school girls and 703 woman college students in Seoul and Taegu during the period of September 10 to 30, 1973 and the result are summarized as followings; 1. The rates of menses experience by years were 18.2% in the age group of 12 years girls, 31.9% in 13 years, 64.6% in 14 years, 89.8% in 15 years, 98.1% in 16 years respectively. 2. The average age of menarche for the 2504 school girls who were born during the year of 1957-1961 is 13.4 years with the rang of 9 years to 16 years. And the most frequent age of menarche is 13 years. 3. The average age of menarche for the 703 woman college students who were born during the year of 1950-1954 is 14.3 years with the rang of 9 years to 18 years. And the most frequent age of menarche is 13 years. 4. The apparence of menarche is most common in August (20.7%) for the group who were born during the year of 1957-1961 and most rear in November (4.2%). And it is also most common in August (19.9%) for the group who were born puring the year of 1950-1954 but most rear in June (3.4%).

This is descripitive study conducted to identify educational needs of mothers of nephrotic syndrome patients. The study subjects were composed of 74 mothers of nephrotic syndrome patients whose children were hospitalized in 2 Pediatric wards of University Hospital in Seoul and 1 in Pusan from June to september in 1996. A questionnaire for this study was item Kikert type 5 point scale, developed on the basis of previous literature and researcher's clinical experience and the reliability of the used instruments was alpha=.97. t-test, and ANOVA were used to determine the effect of general characteristics of subjects on their educational needs. Pearson correlation was done to measure relations between general characteristics of subjects and their educational needs and Stepwise Multiple Regression was done to test a variable affecting educational needs. The results were as follows. 1. Mean score of the educational needs of the subjects was 137.06(Maximum 176). The educational needs of home care was the highest score, but the question numbers are smaller than other categories. So, the educational need of the diagnosis and treatment was regarded as the highest in contents. 2. The number of subject's children, except for patient revealed significant negative correlation to educational need. 3. The number of subject's children, except for patient(R2=.215289 P=.0006) and the age of patient(R2=.23770 P=.0001) were emerged as important variables affecting the degree of mothers' educational need. Suggestion are as follows on the basis of these results. 1. It is proposed that nurses use these results of the study activity for the educational program for Nephrotic Syndrome patients and their mothers. 2. It is identified that the educational needs of the mothers of nephrotic syndrome is high, So, it is suggested to identify and analysis the degree of the nurse's educational performance perceived by mother 3. It is suggested to make a comparative study of the degree of nurse's understanding of the importance on educational items with the instruments of this study.
