Two cases of hyperlipoproteinemia is reported, Hyperlipoproteinemia is characterized by various kinds of cutaneous xanthomatosis associated with or without arteriosclerotic changes due to increasing lipoprotein fraction of the serum. Case I . 37-year old housewife had multiple, pea to nut sized, various shaped, cutaneous and subcutaneous nodular masses has been developed last 3 years. Some of her family member have similar symptoms. Serum cholesterol level was 790 mg% and serum triglyceride level was 270 mg% after 14 hour fasting. Case II. 52-year old housewife was suffered from pea sized, multiple, subcutaneous nodular and cutaneous eruptions last 2 years. There was no family histories. Serum cholesterol level was 895 mg% and serum triglyceride level was 350 mg% after 14 hour fasting. Typical Touton giant cells were found in biopsy specimens taken from cutaneous lesons. ECG, X-ray, glucose toleranc test and other laboratory examinations showed within normal limits. Tne agarose electrophoresis pattern of serum lipoprotein fractions are very similiar with that of hyperlipoproteinemia type II. These two patients were treated with nicotinic and 1. 0 gm and clofibrate 2.0 gm daily by mouth and restricted animal fatty foods. Total serum cholesterol level was markedly decreasea 2 months after treatment in case I.

In parentage testing DNA profiles are used to link the alleged father with paternity by matching their patterns. The probative value of a match is often calculated by multiplying together the estimated frequencies with which each particular VNTR or STR pattern occurs in a reference population. When this calculating method applies to the motherless case of paternity disputes, a calculation must usually be based on types determined for the child and the alleged father. In such case, the first consideration is to exclude a man from paternity of a child when the man did not have the child's paternal allele at some loci, or if the paternal allele cannot be determined, when the man had neither of the child s alleles. The second is to evaluate the DNA evidence when a man is not excluded by the paternal allele. This work is to provide theories of paternity analysis with three approach methods for the motherless case, and to evaluate their efficiency compared to the trio case when the man tested is not excluded. Consequently, the motherless case offers lower probability exclusion and questionable cumulative paternity index than those of the trio case as being typed with 14 STR loci(CSF1PO, TH01, TPDX, vWA, D5S818, D13S317, D7S820, D16S539, FGA, D21S11, FES/FPS, F13A1, D18S80, D17S5). Since the motherless case in paternity disputes is less efficient for paternity exclusion of the child, the use of genetic maker systems with the higher value of mean exclusion chance(MEC) and exact levels of the relative probability of paternity must be of importance considered in the analysis of such deficiency cases.

BACKGROUND: Adult with congenital heart disease represents a new category of specialized cardiovascular interest that requires the cooperation of a number of medical and surgical disciplines, and also requires the interactions among traditional departmental jurisdiction. Uninterrupted, long-term continuity care is essential if the concerns inherent in this new and increasing patient population are to be addressed. The purpose of this study was to analyze the clinical characteristics of congenital heart disease in adolescents and adults. METHODS: Between October 1994 and July 1996, retrospective follow-up records and registry chart of 229 consecutive patients with congenital heart disease for over 16 years in GUCH (grown-up congenital heart) clinic were reviewed by a physician and a nurse specialist. RESULTS: There were 126 female and 103 male GUCH patients with the mean age of 34+/-14.6 years old. Among the 229 patients, there were 179 natural survivors, those without cardiac repair, and 50 postoperative survivors. Congenital heart defects were 167 shunt legions, 17 obstructive and valvular legions, 14 tetralogy of Fallot, 15 complex congenital heart anomalies and 16 others. Among the 179 natural survivors; 122 (68%) required heart surgery or continuous medical surveillance, and among the 50 surgically repaired survivors; 37 (74%) required reoperation for residual heart defects, constant medical treatment or consultation from other medical divisions. The reasons for the hospital vistis were:cardiac operation or cardiac diagnosis in 128 (56%) patients, symptomatic heart conditions in 43 (19%), routine heart examinations since childhood in 31 (14%) and others in 27 (11%). Also, the patient compliances were higher in the GUCH clinic than the traditional departmental jurisdiction (p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: To achieve continuing care for the patients with congenital heart disease in adolescents and adults, it is important to develope a specialized clinic addressing the specific needs of the congenital heart disease in adolescents and adults.

Aspergillosis is a rare disease of fungal infection produced by the genus Aspergillus in immunocompromised patients. It mainly involves the lung and may disseminate by invasion of biood vessels into the gastrointestinal tract. Brain and kidney. We report a case of the disseminated aspergillosis in malignant lymphoma affecting the lung. Brain and thyroid gland.
