RESUMO
Karoowia saxeti was recorded during the lichen field expedition in southern part of Korea in 2006. The lichen was found on the rock surface along coastal line. This species was easily recognized by chemistry (K+ yellow) and the presence of isidia. Thallus was saxicolous, subcrustose, more or less lobate at the center with clearly lobed margins, 2~6 cm broad and pale yellowish green. Thalli lobes were irregular, variable, up to 1.0mm wide, not branched, flat to more or less convex and contiguous to subimbricate. Upper surface of the thalli was continuous, emaculate, moderately isidiate. The isidia was subglobose to cynlindrical, darkening at the tips and unbranched. Low surface of the thalii was black with a spongy rhizoidal and lamellar layer. HPLC analysis proved the presence of stictic acid (K+ yellow), norstictic acid and usnic acid. This is the first record of the species in South Korea.

Anjo Kosei General Hospital is a large-scale hospital having 692 beds and located in the central part of Aichi. When the hospital moved into the present adress in April 2002, we introduced an electronic chart system that was not common in Japan at that time. Hospital management changed dramatically because until then we were using exclusively papers, and had not possessed even an electronic ordering system. It was also true in the field of medical office work. We hereby report the changes in routines after the introduction of the electronic chart system and its usefulness.The characteristics of our medical work system are as follows.(1)Data refrieval function (Data Ware House)(2)Credit control system(3)Receipt imaging functionWe are evaluating the various effects of the system from seven points of view as follows.(1)Basic data of medical care(2)Staff placement and personnel expenses(3)Work accuracy and efficiency(4)Patients service(5)Storage space reduction(6)Paper reduction(7)In-house questionnaire survey
