The purpose of the survey was to identify the degree and the relationship of sexual knowledge, sexual attitude. This information will provide useful data for a more systematic, desirable, and practical sex education. The data was collected from 187 first grade schoolchildren(95 boys and 92 girls) of two Junior high school in Chun-nam area. The data was gathered by questionnaire from Oct. 1 to 15, 1996. The questionnaire was modified by authors using the questionnaire developed by You-Jeong, Han(1996). Data was analyzed by using the statistical computer package, SAS to manipulate the data long with percentages, means, standard deviation, t-test, chi2-test, GLM, and Pearson correlation coeffiency. The results in this study were summarized as follows : 1. Sex related knowledge. - The mean score of sex related knowledges showed significant differences between boys and girls(boys ; 22.3, girls ; 21.0, p<0.025), and in the area of pregnancy & delivery(boy ; 9.4, girls ; 7.9, P<0.000) showed significant difference between boys and girls, but in the area of physical differences of the others sex(boys ; 12.9, girls ; 13.1, p<0.551) showed no significant difference between boys and girls. 2. Sex related attitudes. - The mean score of sex related attitudes showed significant difference between boys and girls(boys ; 56.7, girls : 60.5, p<0.002) and in the area of psychological difference the other sex(boys : 28.9, girls : 32.5, p<0.000), but in the areas of form of friendship with the other sex(boys : 11.5, girls : 11.2, p<0.335), sexual delinquency & its prevention(boys : 16.3, girls : 16.9, p<0.171) showed no significant difference between boys and girls. 3. The relationships between sex related knowledges and sex related attitudes. - Those who had higher sex related knowledges showed more positive attitudes towards sex, and showed no statistical significance(r=0.08, p<0.286). 4. Differences of the sex related knowledges according to general characteristics. - The students had disease experience, health interest and more school performance had higher knowledge scores about sex. 5. Differences of the sex related attitudes according to general characteristics. - Those who were in high school performance had higher attitude scores about sex as well.. From the result of the study, it is recommended to develop systematic sex education through formal school education according to age.

BACKGROUND: The fire victims are affected not only by bum and trauma but also carbon monoxide(CO) and hypoxia. It may be useful to triage mass casualties of fire field that preestimate the victim's injury sevrrities by experiments of measuring the concentration of CO and oxygen according to time progression. METHOD: We prepared one house of apartment as like usual residental environment. The mesuring of concentrations of CO and oxygen was started from firing. RESULT: 3.8 Min. after firing: CO concentration(0.007%) was reached to the level that can give rise to spontaneous headache. 5 Min.: The concentration of CO was incerased. At this level(0.012%), the victims of fire may be suffered severe headache inspite of mild movement. 5.5 Min.: At this time,0.02% of CO concentration that the victims can't escape by themselves was checked. 6 Min.; 0.08% was measured, almost patients may be unconscious and the symptoms will be more severe at this CO concentration because of hypoxia.6.4 Min.: It was absolutly impossible to be survival at this time due to incresing of CO concentration(0.195%) and decreasing of O2 concentration(5%). CONCLUSION: It is within 5.5 Min. that the patient can escape by themselves, and impossible to be survival more than 6.5 Min. in fire field. Rescuers and EMTs must consider time factor as well as sysmtoms of patients.

Tuberous sclerosis is a systemic disorder of hamartoma format on includes facial angiofibromas, subungal fibromas, hypomelanic maciles Shagreens patches. The earliest skin manifestation of tuberous sileiule, but it may appear later. We present a case of fibrous plaqu a recognized skin signs. Forehead plaque can be the earliest skin near in many organs. Skin involvement less forehead fibrous plaques, and vsis is usually hypornelanotic inacipearing before any of these more festation of tuberous sclerosis. Its presence may lead to early diagnosis and appropriate genetic couise hng hut may be a poor prognostic sign.

Oil granuloma is a foreignbody reaction which occurs after injection of lipid usually for cosmetic or therapeutic reasons. I present a case of eyelid oil granuloma caused by accidental high pressure injury in a 39-year-old man. The patient had a 2 x 0.5cm sized, firm, normardear subcutaneous nodule on the Rt. upper eyelid. Histopathologic examination showed a characteris swiss-cheese appearance. Eyelid oil granuloma caused by high pressure injury is very rare and my case is the first described in Korean medical literatures.

Xanthoma disseminatum (XD) is one of cutaneous nonhistiocytosis X, and characterized by multiple, widely distributed red, brown, yellowish papules and nodules that tend to coalesce. We present a case of XD with characteristic clinical findings and treated with the combination therapy of COz laser vaporization and high dose steroid.
