The purpose of this study was to evaluate the skeletal and dentoalveolar effects of facemask therapy and to compare the anchorage of a bonded expander in patients with Class III malocclusion and different vertical skeletal patterns. Twenty subjects with Class III malocclusion were included in this study and were treated with a facemask and bonded expander. Based on the FMA, subjects were divided into two groups of 10 patients each: a high vertical group (HV; mean FMA $33.56^{\circ}$) and an average vertical group (AV; mean FMA $24.88^{\circ}$). Lateral cephalograms were taken and evaluated before and after treatment. In both groups, forward movement of the maxilla and backward rotation of the mandible were observed after treatment, with no statistical differences between the groups. Vertical skeletal variables increased in both groups, but the increase of FMA was significantly larger in the HV group than the AV group. Mesial movement of maxillary molars and proclination of maxillary incisors which indicate anchorage loss of bonded expander were observed in both groups, with no significant differences between the groups. In conclusion, facemask therapy resulted in effective maxillary protraction in both HV and AV groups. However, the open bite tendency was increased more in the HV group.

Patients who have a moderate periodontitis with pathologic tooth migration of maxillary incisors, it is necessary not only periodontal treatment for reduce periodontal inflammation, but also orthodontic treatment to teeth repositioning. For orthodontic treatment, it is necessary to apply less force and careful considerations of the center of resistance of the tooth and optimal force of tooth movement. At this time, the segmental arch applied only to the target teeth, is more effective and predictable, because applied force and direction can be controlled. In addition, to design the orthodontic appliance that can prevent the unwanted tooth movement that used as an anchorage is important. In recent years, various types of skeletal anchorage system have been used for preventing loss of the anchorage. We reported the patient who had extruded maxillary central incisor due to pathologic tooth migration, treated by a successful periodontal-orthodontic multidisciplinary treatment using an orthodontic appliance designed to apply less traumatic force and reduce an anchorage loss.

본 논문에서는 이동 애드 혹 네트워크의 성능 개선을 위한 방안으로 네트워크 중간에 고정 로드를 부가하여 어느 정도의 성능 향상이 있는지를 모의 실험을 통하여 평가하였다. 모의 실험 결과 이동 노드만을 사용했을 경우보다 고정노드를 함께 사용했을 때의 성능이 더 뛰어남을 알 수 있었고, 이동 노드의 이동 속도에 따른 비교에서도 고정 노드를 함께 사용한 경우가 성능이 더 뛰어남을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 고정 노드의 개수에 따른 성능평가에서는 고정 노드를 여러 대 사용할수록 지연시간이 단축됨을 확인 할 수 있었다. 본 연구에서 제안한 방식은 이동 애드 혹 네트워크의 중간에 고정 노드를 부가하여야 하는 문제가 있으나, 비용과 처리율과의 관계를 비교한 후 비용 상승에도 불구하고 보다 높은 신뢰성과 빠른 처리율을 원하는 네트워크에 사용하면 효과적일 것이다.

Purpose : The wedge filter is the most commonly used beam modifying device during radiation therapy Recently dynamic wedge technique is available through the computer controlled asymmetric collimator, independent jaw. But dosimetric characteristics of dynamic wedge technique is not well known. Therefore we evaluate dosimetric characteristics of dynamic wedge compared to conventional fixed wedge. Materials and Methods : We evaluated dosimetric characteristics of dynamic wedge and fixed wedge by ion chamber, film dosimetry and TLD in phantoms such as water, polystyrene and average breast phantom. Six MV x-ray was used in $15{\times}15cm$ field with 15,30 and 45 degree wedge of dynamic/liked wedge system, Dosimeric characteristics are interpreted by Wellhofer Dosimetrie system WP700/WP700i and contralateral breast dose (CBD) with tangential technique was confirmed by TLD. Results : 1) Percent depth dose through the dynamic wedge technique in tissue equivalent phantom was similar to open field irradiation and there was no beam hardening effect compared to fixed wedge technique. 2) Isodose line composing wedge angle of dynamic wedge is more straight than hard wedge. And dynamic wedge technique was able to make any wedge angle on any depth and field size. 3) The contralateral breast dose in primary breast irradiation was reduced by dynamic wedge technique compared to fixed wedge. When the dynamic wedge technique was applied, the scatter dose was similar to that of open field irradiation. Conclusion : The dynamic wedge technique was superior to fixed wedge technique in dosimetric characteristics and may be more useful in the future.

Conventional osseointegrated titanium implants have many limitations; large size, limited location for placement of the implant, severity of the surgery, discomfort of initial healing, difficulty of oral hygiene and uncontrollable force direction. Recently titanium miniscrew and miniplate have been used for an alternative to conventional dental implant. But in relation to miniplate, miniscrew has disadvantages in that more potential inflammation, light orthodontic force application and limited orthodontic application. This study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of miniplate by observing the reactions of peri-implant tissues to early orthodontic and orthopedic loading of titanium miniplate. In four adult beagle dogs 10 miniplates were inserted into the alveolar bone using 20 osseointegrated titanium screws. 4 miniplates were placed in two dogs(dogA, B) and 6 miniplates in two dogs(dogC, D). In dogA, B miniplates were loaded with 200gm of force immediately after placement for 15 weeks. In dogc, D, miniplates were loaded with 400gm of force immediately after placement for 8 weeks. Miniplates of dogA were removed, dogA was healed for 4 weeks, and the area which was removed of miniscrew was examined. Following an observation period, the miniplates including miniscrews and the surrounding bone of dogB and dogC, D were removed, respectively. Undecalcified section along the long axis of miniscrews were made and the degree of osseointegration was examined under the light microscope. The results were as follows. 1. In the histologic features there was direct contact between bone and miniscrew in all groups except one, dogC control group. The loaded miniscrew demonstrated only a slight increase of the osseous proximaty when compared with unloaded miniscrew 2. There was no significant difference of the osseointegration of Peri-miniscrew surface between dogB and dogC, D. But dogB showed slightly more increased bone apposition than dogC, D 3. The gingiva overlapping the miniplate and miniscrew showed no inflammatory sign in clinical and histological aspects. 4. The impaled hard and soft tissues at the area which was removed of miniscrews showed good healing without inflammatory reaction. 5. The mobility showed slight increase in un-loaded miniplate but that was insignificant. Based on the results of this study, miniplate(C-tube) can be used as a firm osseous orthodontic and orthopedic anchorage unit immediately after insertion.

Defined spatial localization of biomolecules on the polymer surface Is potentially powerful method to generate biocompatible surface. Photolithography and photochemistry can be used to immobilize peptides only al a given region of the surface. In this study, peptide RGDS, one of the endothelial cells recognition sites of fibronectin, was covalently immobilized on the polystyrene coated surface with micropattern. It was performed by photochemical reactivity of a synthesized N-hydroxysuccinimidyl phenyl azide. The micropatterning was confirmed by staining with fluorescent dye, aminoacetamido fluorescein. Endothelial cell adhesion was observed only on the RGDS immobilized areas.

Immobilization of biosorbent is very important for application to real wastewater treatment process because biosorbent itself does not have enough tough structure. Therefore, resent research on heavy metal biosorption using biomass has been focused on its efficient immobilization method. To improve the mechanical strength of freely biosorbent, many immobilization methods have been suggested for applications to the biosorbent such as microorganisms or polysaccharides. In this study, various immobilization methods such as adsorption, covalent binding, entrapment, encapsulation, and crosslinking will be introduced.

본 논문에서는 부스트 프리레귤레이터가 통합된 새로운 고효율 고정-주파수 LLC 공진형 컨버터를 제안한다. 기존 부스트 프리레귤레이터가 사용된 2단-구조의 컨버터는 연속적인 입력전류 및 넓은 전압이득 범위를 가져 태양광 및 연료전지에 적합한 토폴로지이다. 하지만, 부스트 프리레귤레이터 단에서 하드 스위칭으로 인한 큰 스위칭 손실, 큰 다이오드 도통 손실이 발생하여 낮은 효율을 갖는 문제가 발생한다. 따라서 이를 해결하기 위해, 제안된 회로는 부스트 프리레귤레이터를 통합시킨 새로운 구조를 사용하여 모든 스위치의 영전압 스위칭을 달성하고, 다이오드를 소거하였다. 따라서 제안된 회로는 높은 효율을 갖는다. 제안된 회로의 효용성을 증명하기 위해, 24-32V 입력전압과 12-16V(200W)출력에서 실험이 진행되었다.
