Abstract
An injured posterior talofibular ligament (PTFL) is one of the reasons for chronic lateral ankle instability (CLAI). Previous researches have demonstrated that the PTFL thickness (PTFLT) is associated with chronic ligament injuries. However, ligament hypertrophy is different from ligament thickness. Thus, we created the PTFL cross-sectional area (PTFLCSA) as a diagnostic image parameter to assess the hypertrophy of the whole PTFL. We assumed that the PTFLCSA is a key morphological diagnostic parameter in CLAI. PTFL data were obtained from 15 subjects with CLAI and from 16 normal individuals. The T1-weighted axial ankle-MR (A-MR) images were acquired at the level of PTFL. We measured the PTFLT and PTFLCSA at the posterior aspect of the ankle using our imaging analysis program. The PTFLT was measured as the thickness between point of anterior and posterior fiber of PTFL. The PTFLCSA was calculated as the whole cross-sectional PTFL area. The average PTFLT was 3.43 ± 0.52 mm in the healthy group and 4.89 ± 0.80 mm in the CLAI group. The mean PTFLCSA was 41.06 ± 12.18 mm 2 in the healthy group and 80.41 ± 19.14 mm 2 in the CLAI group. CLAI patients had significantly greater PTFLT ( P < .001) and PTFLCSA ( P < .001) than the healthy group. A receiver operating characteristic curve analysis demonstrated that the optimal cutoff score of the PTFLT was 4.19 mm, with 93.3% sensitivity, 93.7% specificity, and an area under the curve of 0.97. The most suitable cutoff value of the PTFLCSA was 61.15 mm 2 , with 93.3% sensitivity, 100% specificity, and area under the curve of 0.99. Even though the PTFLT and PTFLCSA were both significantly associated with CLAI, the PTFLCSA was a more exact morphological measurement parameter.

Abstract
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is correlated with increased intracarpal canal pressure (ICP). The effect of palmaris longus tendon (PLT) loading on ICP is documented in previous researches. PLT loading induces the greatest absolute increase in ICP. Therefore, to analyze the connection between the PLT and CTS, we newly made the measurement of the PLT cross-sectional area (PLTCSA). We assumed that PLTCSA is a reliable diagnostic parameter in the CTS. PLTCSA measurement data were acquired from 21 patients with CTS, and from 21 normal subjects who underwent wrist magnetic resonance imaging (W-MRI). We measured the PLTCSA at the level of pisiform on W-MRI. The PLTCSA was measured on the outlining of PLT. The two different cutoff values in the analysis were determined using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. The mean PLTCSA was 2.34 ± 0.82 mm2 in the normal group and 3.97 ± 1.18 mm2 in the CTS group. ROC curve analysis concluded that the best cutoff point for the PLTCSA was 2.81 mm2, with 76.2% sensitivity, 71.4% specificity, and area under the curve of 0.88 (95% CI, 0.78-0.98). PLTCSA is a sensitive, new, objective morphological parameter for evaluating CTS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) space narrowing has been considered to be an important diagnostic image parameter of ACJ osteoarthritis (ACJO). However, the morphology of the ACJ space is irregular because of osteophyte formation, subchondral irregularity, capsular distention, sclerosis, and erosion. Therefore, we created the ACJ cross-sectional area (ACJCSA) as a new diagnostic image parameter to assess the irregular morphologic changes of the ACJ.
AIM To hypothesize that the ACJCSA is a new diagnostic image parameter for ACJO.
METHODS ACJ samples were obtained from 35 patients with ACJO and 30 healthy individuals who underwent shoulder magnetic resonance (S-MR) imaging that revealed no evidence of ACJO. Oblique coronal, T2-weighted, fat-suppressed S-MR images were acquired at the ACJ level from the two groups. We measured the ACJCSA and the ACJ space width (ACJSW) at the ACJ on the S-MR images using our imaging analysis program. The ACJCSA was measured as the cross-sectional area of the ACJ. The ACJSW was measured as the narrowest point between the acromion and the clavicle.
RESULTS The average ACJCSA was 39.88 ± 10.60 mm2 in the normal group and 18.80 ± 5.13 mm2 in the ACJO group. The mean ACJSW was 3.51 ± 0.58 mm in the normal group and 2.02 ± 0.48 mm in the ACJO group. ACJO individuals had significantly lower ACJCSA and ACJSW than the healthy individuals. Receiver operating characteristic curve analyses demonstrated that the most suitable ACJCSA cutoff score was 26.14 mm2, with 91.4% sensitivity and 90.0% specificity.
CONCLUSION The optimal ACJSW cutoff score was 2.37 mm, with 88.6% sensitivity and 96.7% specificity. Even though both the ACJCSA and ACJSW were significantly associated with ACJO, the ACJCSA was a more sensitive diagnostic image parameter.

Abstract
Background The study investigated virtual reality (VR) immersion in alleviating procedure-related pain in patients with chronic pain undergoing fluoroscopy-guided minimally-invasive intervention in a prone position at an outpatient clinic. Methods In this prospective randomized controlled study, 38 patients undergoing lumbar sympathetic ganglion block were randomized into either the VR or the control group. In the VR group, procedure-related pain was controlled via infiltration of local anesthetics while watching a 30-minute VR hypnotic program. In the control group, the skin infiltration alone was used, with the VR device switched off. The primary endpoint was an 11-point score on the numerical rating scale, indicating procedure-related pain. Patients’ satisfaction with pain control, anxiety levels, the need for additional local anesthetics during the procedure, hemodynamic stability, and any adverse events were assessed. Results Procedure-related pain was significantly lower in the VR group (3.7 ± 1.4) than in the control group (5.5 ± 1.7; P = 0.002). Post-procedural anxiety was lower in the VR group than in the control group (P = 0.025), with a significant reduction from pre-procedural anxiety (P < 0.001). Although patients’ satisfaction did not differ significantly (P = 0.158) between the groups, a higher number of patients required additional local anesthetics in the control group (n = 13) than in the VR group (n = 4; P = 0.001). No severe adverse events occurred in either group during the study. Conclusions VR immersion can be safely used as a novel adjunct to reduce procedural pain and anxiety during fluoroscopic pain intervention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Repetitive microtrauma can result in a hypertrophied ATFL. Previous studies have found that the anterior talofibular ligament thickness (ATFLT) is correlated with lateral ankle sprains, ligament injuries and chronic stroke in patients, and thickened anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) has been considered to be a major morphologic parameter of hypertrophied ATFL. However, hypertrophy is different from thickness. Thus, we devised the anterior talofibular ligament area (ATFLA) as a new morphological parameter to evaluate the hypertrophy of the whole ATFL. METHODS ATFL samples were collected from 53 patients with sprain group and from 50 control subjects who underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the ankle and revealed no evidence of lateral ankle injury. Axial T1-weighted MRI images were collected at the ankle level from all subjects. We measured the ATFLA and ATFLT at the anterior margin of the fibular malleolus to the talus bone on the MRI using a picture archiving and communications system. The ATFLA was measured as the whole cross-sectional ligament area of the ATFL that was most hypertrophied in the axial MR images. The ATFLT was measured as the thickest point between the lateral malleolus and the talus of the ankle. RESULTS The average ATFLA was 25.0 ± 6.0 mm2 in the control group and 47.1 ± 10.4 mm2 in the sprain group. The average ATFLT was 2.3 ± 0.6 mm in the control group and 3.8 ± 0.6 mm in the hypertrophied group. Patients in sprain group had significantly greater ATFLA (p < 0.001) and ATFLT (p < 0.001) than the control subjects. A Receiver Operator Characteristics curve analysis showed that the best cut-off point of the ATFLA was 34.8 mm2, with 94.3% sensitivity, 94.0% specificity, and an AUC of 0.97 (95% CI, 0.94-1.00). The optimal cut-off point of the ATFLT was 3.1 mm, with 86.8% sensitivity, 86.0% specificity, and AUC of 0.95 (95% CI, 0.92-0.99). CONCLUSION ATFLA is a new morphological parameter for evaluating chronic ankle sprain, and may even be more sensitive than ATFLT.

Abstract
Background Anatomic changes in the acromion have been considered a main cause of shoulder impingement syndrome (SIS). To evaluate the relationship between SIS and the acromion process, we devised a new morphological parameter called the acromion process cross-sectional area (APA). We hypothesized that the APA could be an important morphologic diagnostic parameter in SIS. Methods We collected APA data from 95 patients with SIS and 126 control subjects who underwent shoulder magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Then we measured the maximal cross-sectional area of the bone margin of the acromion process on MRI scans. Results The mean of APAs were 136.50 ± 21.75 mm2 in the male control group and 202.91 ± 31.78 mm2 in the male SIS group; SIS patients had significantly greater APAs (P < 0.001). The average of APAs were 105.38 ± 19.07 mm2 in the female control group and 147.62 ± 22.90 mm2 in the female SIS group, and the SIS patients had significantly greater APAs (P < 0.001). The optimal APA cut-off in the male group was 165.14 mm2 with 90.2% sensitivity, 91.4% specificity, and an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.968. In the female group, the optimal cut-off was 122.50 mm2 with 85.2% sensitivity, 84.9% specificity, and an AUC of 0.928. Conclusions The newly devised APA is a sensitive parameter for assessing SIS; greater APA is associated with a higher possibility of SIS. We think that this result will be helpful for the diagnosis of SIS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nutraceuticals containing cis-9-cetylmyristoleate (CMO) are used to improve knee pain despite the lack of placebo-controlled studies in humans. The aim of the study was to explore the minimal effective dose of CMO for relieving knee joint pain. METHODS Twenty-eight subjects with mild degree arthritic knee joint pain were randomized into 4 groups; groups A, B, and C that contained 100%, 80%, and 62.4% of fatty acid component with 12.5% of CMO, and control group D (starch 100%). The pain intensity, functional disability, and the Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) were assessed for a 12-week ingestion period. RESULTS Compared to group D (n = 6), there were significant differences in pain score in group A (n = 7, P = 0.005) and group C (n = 7, P = 0.012), but not significant in group B (n = 6, P = 0.180). Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis (WOMAC) score decreased significantly in groups A and C. The PGIC was positive in the majority (>50%) in groups A, B, and C, whereas negative in 83.3% in group D (control). CONCLUSION CMO is effective in alleviating knee pain in persons with mild degree arthritis of the knee joint, at an effective dose of 62.4%.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study analyzed the spatiotemporal pattern and spatial diffusion of elderly suicide by age cohort, in Korea. STUDY DESIGN The research investigated the elderly suicide rates of the 232 municipal units in South Korea between 2001 and 2011. METHODS The Gi* score, which is a spatially weighted indicator of area attributes, was used to identify hot spots and the spatiotemporal pattern of elderly suicide in the nation during the last 10 years. The spatial Markov matrix and spatial dynamic panel data model were employed to identify and estimate the diffusion effect. RESULTS The suicide rate among elderly individuals 75 years and older was substantially higher than the rate for those between 65 and 74 years of age; however, the spatial patterns of the suicide clusters were similar between the two groups. From 2001 to 2011, the spatial distribution of elderly suicide hot spots differed each year. For both age cohorts, elderly suicide hot spots developed around the north area of South Korea in 2001 and moved to the mid-east area and the mid-western coastal area over 10 years. The spatial Markov matrix indicates that the change in the suicide rate of one area was affected by the suicide rates of neighbouring areas from the previous year, which suggests that suicide increase in one area inflates a neighbouring area's suicide rate over time. Using a spatial dynamic panel data model, elderly suicide diffusion effects were found to be statistically significant for both age cohorts even after economic and demographic indicators and a time variable are included. For individuals 75 years and older, the diffusion effect appeared to be larger. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates that elderly suicide can spread spatially over time in both age cohorts. Thus, it is necessary to design a place-based and age-differentiated intervention policy that precisely considers the spatial diffusion of elderly suicide.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the cervical spine, the ligamentum flavum (LF) is often incompletely fused at the midline. Therefore, accessing the epidural space (ES) using the loss of resistance (LOR) technique via the midline approach could be less reliable than the paramedian approach. Since the tactile sensation of LOR is due to abrupt loss of pressure upon entering the ES, we have compared pressure changes between the 2 different cervical epidural techniques. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to compare pressure changes during the pathway to the cervical ES between the 2 approaches. STUDY DESIGN A prospective, open-labeled, randomized, comparative study. SETTING An interventional pain management practice in a hospital, Republic of Korea. METHODS The 74 patients were randomly assigned to either a midline or paramedian group. The pressure changes were monitored and classified into 4 grades according to the following criteria: Grade I. The pressure waveform sequence consisted of 3 components in chronological order: 1) a high positive pressure just prior to entering the ES; 2) an abrupt pressure decrease at the moment of entering the ES; and 3) a negative peak pressure before cervical epidural pressure equilibration. Grade II. A high positive pressure followed by a precipitous pressure drop, without negative peak pressure upon entering the ES. Grade III. High positive pressure before entering the ES, followed by continuous pressure decrease without negative pressure. Grade IV. No pressure changes before or after entering the cervical ES. RESULTS An abrupt pressure decrease at the moment of exiting the LF or entering the ES was more frequently observed when using the paramedian approach (P < 0.05) with the odds ratio of 4.96 (95% CI, 1.63 - 15.12) as compared with the midline approach. LIMITATIONS A correlation between the abrupt pressure decrease and LOR tactile sensation has been assumed. CONCLUSION Under the assumption that the LOR sensation is due to an abrupt decrease in pressure the moment the needle enters the ES or exits the LF, this study claims that the accuracy of accessing the cervical ES can be improved significantly using the paramedian approach.

Abstract
Nutrient stress that produces quiescence and catabolism in normal cells is lethal to cancer cells, because oncogenic mutations constitutively drive anabolism. One driver of biosynthesis in cancer cells is the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) signaling complex. Activating mTORC1 by deleting its negative regulator tuberous sclerosis complex 2 (TSC2) leads to hypersensitivity to glucose deprivation. We have previously shown that ceramide kills cells in part by triggering nutrient transporter loss and restricting access to extracellular amino acids and glucose, suggesting that TSC2-deficient cells would be hypersensitive to ceramide. However, murine embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) lacking TSC2 were highly resistant to ceramide-induced death. Consistent with the observation that ceramide limits access to both amino acids and glucose, TSC2(-/-) MEFs also had a survival advantage when extracellular amino acids and glucose were both reduced. As TSC2(-/-) MEFs were resistant to nutrient stress despite sustained mTORC1 activity, we assessed whether mTORC1 signaling might be beneficial under these conditions. In low amino acid and glucose medium, and following ceramide-induced nutrient transporter loss, elevated mTORC1 activity significantly enhanced the adaptive upregulation of new transporter proteins for amino acids and glucose. Strikingly, the introduction of oncogenic Ras abrogated the survival advantage of TSC2(-/-) MEFs upon ceramide treatment most likely by increasing nutrient demand. These results suggest that, in the absence of oncogene-driven biosynthetic demand, mTORC1-dependent translation facilitates the adaptive cellular response to nutrient stress.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES A prospective, randomized, double-blind study using bispectral index values to objectively quantify the sedative effect of high spinal anaesthesia in patients stratified according to age, and to determine whether sedative drugs are associated with additional adverse respiratory and haemodynamic effects in older patients. METHODS Patients who were electively scheduled for lower limb or abdominal surgery were recruited and allocated into one of three groups according to their age and whether midazolam and fentanyl were used: younger (20-40 years); and older (61-80 years) with or without midazolam and fentanyl intravenous infusion. RESULTS The study recruited a total of 90 patients (n = 30 per group). Intraoperative bispectral index values were significantly lower than preoperative values in all groups. Patients in the older age group had significantly lower intraoperative bispectral index values than younger patients. Older patients were significantly more likely to experience respiratory depression (arterial oxyhaemoglobin saturation <90%) than younger patients. CONCLUSIONS The sedative effect of high spinal anaesthesia is greater in older patients than in younger patients, with an increase in respiratory instability.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study compared the risk of clinically significant reflex bradycardia during anaesthesia with sevoflurane or desflurane in patients undergoing gastrectomy. METHODS In this randomized prospective study, 100 patients undergoing gastrectomy were assigned to receive sevoflurane (n=50) or desflurane (n=50) anaesthesia. No anticholinergic prophylaxis was administered. Symptomatic reflex bradycardia was defined as a sudden decrease in heart rate to <50 beats/min, or a decrease to 50-59 beats/min if associated with a systolic arterial pressure of 70 mmHg in response to surgical manoeuvres. If reflex bradycardia developed, atropine or ephedrine were administered according to a predefined treatment protocol. RESULTS Data from 85 patients were available for analysis. The proportion of patients with symptomatic reflex bradycardia in the sevoflurane and desflurane groups was similar (69.0% versus 55.8%, respectively) and both groups required a similar amount of atropine and/or ephedrine. CONCLUSIONS Clinically significant reflex bradycardia occurred with a relatively high frequency during gastrectomy. Although desflurane is associated with sympathetic activation, it did not provide a protective effect against vagally mediated reflex bradycardia during gastrectomy compared with sevoflurane.

Abstract
Vertebral compression fractures result in vertebral height loss and alter sagittal spinal alignment, which in turn can lead to increased morbidity and mortality. Acute osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures are known to increase mobility and instability of the spine. There are limited published data correlating the degree of dynamic mobility and the efficacy of kyphoplasty on vertebral compression fractures. Here we report a 73-year-old female with a severe acute osteoporotic L2 compression fracture who obtained total vertebral height restoration following kyphoplasty, with resolution of back pain.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypothermia is considered one of the reasons for intraoperative shivering. The purpose of this study is to assess whether active warming can prevent hypothermia and shivering in young adults under spinal anesthesia. METHODS Fifty male patients scheduled for an elective operation on lower extremity under spinal anesthesia were randomly assigned into the warming group (n = 25) and the control group (n = 25). The active warming was performed using a forced air-warming device, a warmed blanket and warmed fluid. Axillary and tympanic temperatures, shivering degree, thermal discomfort, and anesthetic level were checked every 10 minutes after intrathecal injection of local anesthetics. RESULTS Patients' characteristics and anesthetic levels were comparable between the groups. Axillary and tympanic temperatures were maintained higher in the warming group than the control group 10 minutes and 20 minutes after intrathecal injection respectively. The lowest temperature in operating room was higher in the warming group (36.3 +/- 0.5degrees C) compared with the control group (35.7 +/- 0.5degrees C) (P < 0.05). Incidences of intraoperative shivering and thermal discomfort were lower in the warming group. CONCLUSIONS We conclude that intraoperative active warming can prevent hypothermia and shivering during spinal anesthesia.

Abstract
8069 Background: The present study was conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of alemtuzumab plus CHOP chemotherapy for patients with peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs). Methods: Twenty patients with newly diagnosed PTCLs were enrolled. The treatment consisted of classical CHOP plus alemtuzumab (10 mg/m2 i.v on day 1 and 20 mg/m2 i.v on day 2 in the first cycle, then 30 mg/m2 i.v on day 1 in the subsequent cycles) based on 3-week intervals. Results: Thirteen complete responses (65.0%) and 3 partial responses (15.0%) were confirmed, giving an overall response rate of 80.0 %. The estimated event-free survival at 1 year was 43.3%. The most severe hematologic adverse event was neutropenia, which occurred with a grade 4 intensity in 18 patients (90.0%). Plus, febrile neutropenia was observed in 11 patients (55.0%). Five patients (25%) experienced CMV (cytomegalovirus) reactivation, while 3 patients developed CMV diseases, such as pneumonitis or retinitis. There were 2 treatment-related deaths. Conclusions: The alemtuzumab plus CHOP chemotherapy seemed to produce active antitumor activity in terms of the complete response rates in patients with PTCLs. However, since high infectious and hematologic toxicities were observed, careful monitoring and early treatment to prevent treatment-related mortality are needed. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate validity and reliability of the food-frequency questionnaire (FFQ) developed for the Korean Genome Epidemiologic Study (KoGES). METHODS FFQ was administered twice at 1-year interval (first FFQ (FFQ1) at the beginning and second FFQ (FFQ2) at the end of the study) and diet records (DRs) were collected for 3 days during each of the four seasons from December 2002 to May 2004 for those who attended the health examination center. At the end of the study period, we collected the 12-day DRs of 124 participants. The nutrient intakes from the DRs were compared with both FFQ1 and FFQ2. RESULTS The intakes of energy and some nutrients estimated from FFQ1 and FFQ2 were different from those assessed by the DRs. Especially, the consumption of carbohydrates was higher in FFQ1 and FFQ2 than in the DRs. The de-attenuated, age, sex and energy intake adjusted correlation coefficients between the FFQ2 and the 12-day DRs in Korean population ranged between 0.23 (Vitamin A) and 0.64 (carbohydrate). The median for all nutrients was 0.39. The correlations were similar when we compared nutrient densities of both methods. Joint classification of calorie-adjusted nutrient intakes assessed by FFQ2 and 12-day DRs by quartile ranged from 25.8% (vitamin A) to 39.5% (carbohydrate, iron) for exact concordance. Except vitamin A, the proportion of subjects classified into distant quartile was less than 7% in all nutrients. The median of correlations between the two FFQs 1 year apart were 0.45 for all nutrient intakes and 0.39 for nutrient densities. CONCLUSIONS We conclude that the FFQ we have developed appears to be an acceptable tool for assessing the nutrient intakes in this population. Further studies for calibration of the FFQ collected from multicenters participating in the KoGES are needed. SPONSORSHIP This study was supported by the budget of the National Genome Research Institute, Korea National Institute of Health (2002-347-6111-221).

Abstract
15501 Background: This study was to assess the efficacy and safety profiles of the combination treatment with S-1 and Cisplatin in patients with locally advanced SCCHN. Methods: Eligible patients were defined as histologically confirmed SCCHN, stage III or IV with no evidence of distant metastasis, evaluable lesions, adequate organ function, age of 20–80 years, and performance status 0,1 or 2. Cisplatin was infused over 1 hour on day 1 (75 mg/m2) and S-1 was administered orally for 14 consecutive days (day 2–15). The dosages of S-1 were assigned according to the patients’ body surface area (BSA): 50 mg twice a day (BSA < 1.5m2), 60 mg twice a day (BSA > 1.5m2). Each course was repeated every 3 weeks. After 2 course, tumor response were evaluated by CT scan and laryngoscopy. If the patients achieved a response (complete response: CR, or partial response: PR), they received one more course of chemotherapy before undergoing the radiotherapy or operation as a definitive local treatment. Results: All 22 patients were assessable for response and toxicity. The overall response was 80.9% (CR: 3, PR: 14). The adverse reactions occurred 120 times in 54 courses of 22 cases. The most common grade 3/4 adverse events were neutropenia, which occurred in 8 patients. Non-hematological toxicity of grade 3 and 4 included nausea and vomiting in 4 patients, fever in one patient and, fatigue in one patient. Since the observation period is short, the analysis about survival rate is not obtained so far. Conclusions: S-1 plus Cisplatin combination chemotherapy is effective against locally advanced SCCHN with mild toxicity. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
Amyloid precursor protein (APP) is a member of a gene family that includes two APP-like proteins, APLP1 and 2. Recently, it has been reported that APLP1 and 2 undergo presenilin-dependent gamma-secretase cleavage, as does APP, resulting in the release of an approximately 6 kDa intracellular C-terminal domain (ICD), which can translocate into the nucleus. In this study, we demonstrate that the APLP2-ICDs interact with CP2/LSF/LBP1 (CP2) transcription factor in the nucleus and induce the expression of glycogen synthase kinase 3beta (GSK-3beta), which has broad-ranged substrates such as tau- and beta-catenin. The significance of this finding is substantiated by the in vivo evidence of the increase in the immunoreactivities for the nuclear C-terminal fragments of APLP2, and for GSK-3beta in the AD patients' brain. Taken together, these results suggest that APLP2-ICDs contribute to the AD pathogenesis, by inducing GSK-3beta expression through the interaction with CP2 transcription factor in the nucleus.
