We investigated the age-related BMD, accumulated bone loss rate and peak BMD at Lumbar spine, total hip in Korean using data from KNHANES (the 1st(2010), 2nd(2011) and year at the 5th survey). We found that the cubic regression model was the best for describing age-related changes in BMD. Lumbar spine, total hip in bone mineral density difference were analyzed using ANOVA. This showed that the peak BMD was at the age of 20-24 years at lumbar spine, total hip and the bone loss rate was the highest in the lumbar spine at 75-79 years and the total hip was 80 years or older in the men. This showed that the peak BMD was at the age of 40-44 years at lumbar spine, total hip and the bone loss rate was the highest in the lumbar spine at 70 years or older and the total hip was 75-79 years older, 80 years old, 55-59 years old in the women. Therefore, in men, 75 years or older to increase the rate of osteoporosis screening, and women in their 50s and older menopause related management strategies to manage osteoporosis will be needed.

This study examined the age-related bone mineral density (BMD), accumulated bone loss rate (ABLR) at different skeletal sites in Korean men using the data from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES)(the 1st (2010), 2nd (2010) and the year at the 5th survey). The cubic regression model was found to be the best for describing the age-related changes in BMD. The lumbar spine, total hip, femoral neck, trochanter, Ward's triangle in the bone mineral density difference were analyzed by ANOVA. The peak BMD was at 20-24 years at the lumbar spine, total hip, femoral neck, trochanter, Ward's triangle, and the 75-79 years of age group had the highest Accumulated Bone Loss Rate. Therefore, intensive management will be necessary for men over 75 years, and a diagnosis of osteoporosis in Korean men should be made according to The International Society for Clinical Densitometry; ISCD.

IMZ는 "intramobile cylinder implant system" (IMZ)로 독일에서 가장 오래되고 많이 사용되어진 임플란트 중 하나이다. 이 임플란트에 관한 장기적 성공률과 생존률에 대한 연구는 대개 80% 이상을 보고하고 있다. 그러나, 연세대학교 치과병원 치주과에서 식립된 83개의 임플란트에서는 이전의 연구와는 다른 결과를 나타내었다. 1. IMZ 임플란트의 생존률은 67.5% 였다. 2. 변연 치조골 소실에 대한 성공 기준을 적용한 결과 성공률은 49.4%로 나타났다. 3. 발거된 총 27개의 임플란트 중에서 임플란트 주위 골소실을 가지는 경우는 17개, 내부구조 파절은 4개, 식립체 파절은 5개로 보고되었다. 4. 10년 이상 생존된 임플란트에서 변연골 소실의 평균치는 2.82mm였다. IMZ 임플란트는 장기적으로 높은 실패율을 보고하였다. 이는 cylindrical design, titanium plasma flame spray coating, prosthodontic complication 등의 요소에 기인한 것으로 사료된다. 임플란트는 그 형태, 표면 처리 등 여러 가지 요인들에 의해 실패가 나타날 수 있으며 본 연구를 통해 임플란트의 개발 및 선택에 바탕이 될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

생활수준과 의료 질의 향상으로 평균 수명이 길어지면서 노인 인구가 증가함에 따라 골다공증의 발병률도 계속 증가하고 있다. 골다공증은 뼈의 구성성분인 칼슘이 서서히 소실되면서 구멍이 생겨 가벼운 외상에도 골절되는 상태로 뼈가 극도로 약해져 있는 경우를 말한다. 우리나라 여성의 42.6%가 골다공증 또는 골감소증이고 50대, 60대, 70대로 갈수록 골다공증 비율이 2배 이상 늘어난다고 한다. 골다공증은 예방 할 수 있는 질환이므로 지금부터라도 관심을 가지도록 하자.

Purpose: The DNA repair protein, $O^6$-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT), removes alkyl adducts from the $O^6$ position of guanine. Epigenetic inactivation of MGMT has been found in human neoplasia and considered one of the implicated factors in chemoresistance. Materials and Methods: Sixty-two patiensts with soft tissue sarcomas (STS) were analyzed for the status of MGMT protein expression by immunohistochemistry and the promoter hypermethylation of the MGMT gene using methylation-specific PCR. Result: The loss of MGMT expression was found in 20 cases (32.3%) of total 62 STS. MGMT promoter hypermethylation rate was 25.0% (11/44 cases). The loss of MGMT expression showed significant association with high AJCC stage, high FNCLCC grade, and aggressive behavior. However,when the group who received chemotherapy was analyzed (n=27), loss of MGMT expression was correlated with worse survival in multivariate analysis (p=0.024). MGMT promoter hypermethylation is associated with high FNCLCC grade. MGMT promoter hypermethylation status had a strong correlation with loss of MGMT expression (p=0.000). Conclusion: Our results suggest that MGMT promoter hypermethylation and loss of MGMT expression had a tendency to be associated with poor prognosis and that loss of MGMT protein expression is frequently occurs via MGMT promoter hypermethylation.

Purpose: The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the method using the S-reamer and gel-type graft material by the success rate and survival rate. Materials and methods: Implantation period was from 2008 to 2014, Follow check up year is 2019. There were 59 patients and 117 implants. All implants were placed in the posterior maxilla with the sinus lift. The patients population consisted of 34 men and 25 women, ranging from 19 to 75 years. The residual bone heights were from 1 mm to 6 mm. Sinus was perforated with S-reamer without membrane tearing and gel type bone graft material was used for membrane lifting and filling the space. all implants were placed simultaneously. Panoramic X-ray was taken. After 5 - 6 months healing period, final prostheses were restored. After more 5-years implant surgery, Panoramic X-ray was obtained and X-ray analysis and clinical examination were performed. Success criteria was referred to a Buser's success critera. All implants were classified to success implant, survival implant, failed implant. A success implant was satisfying success criteria, a survival implant was a implant that was acute infection with suppuration and bone loss, a failed implant was a implant that was mobile, removed. Results: Five implants were removed, and 4 implants had infected with bone loss. Survival rate was 95.7% and success rate was 92.3%. Conclusion: This retrospective study presented that this method with S-reamer and gel-type graft material was a successful treatment without membrane tear in the condition of 1-6 mm residual bone height.

The aim of this study was to investigate the survival and success rates of autotransplanted maxillary canine at the artificially formed recipient socket and evaluate the factors that influence survival and success rates. A total of 28 children who had 37 impacted canines were reviewed over the mean observation time of 25.1 months. Tooth mobility, pathologic root resorption, vertical bone loss, periapical lesion and anklyosis of donor tooth were investigated clinically and radiographically. The survival rate was 100%. The success rate was 64.9%, because 13 teeth were evaluated as unsuccessful. Significant parameter in determining the success rate of autotransplantation was enlarged follicle size of donor tooth according to Cox proportional hazard regression model. The results provide information necessary for clinician to make a better treatment decision about autotransplantation at the artificially formed recipient socket.

Autotransplantation of third molars with completely formed roots is known to be effective and provide a high long-term success rate. However, in case of severe mobility or unexpectedly extraction is observed during the monitoring period after surgery, it is generally considered as a failure. This case report describes successful replantation of autotransplanted mature third molar into surgically created molar socket. 1 year follow up of transplanted tooth showed clinically normal periodontal pocket depth and tooth mobility. Root resorption or bone loss were not observed. Provided that there is no apparent sign of inflammation, re-insertion into socket is a viable alternative to immediate determination of extraction.

Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer (P. ginseng) is known to exert a wide range of pharmacological effects both in vitro and in vivo. Although studies on ginsenoside, antioxidant activity, and anticancer effect of the cultivated wild Panax ginseng (CWP) have been conducted, there is little research on the effect of CWP extract on bone metabolism. In this study, we investigated the potential anti-osteoporotic properties of CWP on the growth and differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells. CWP significantly increased the viability and proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells. CWP activated intracellular alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity in MC3T3-E1 cells. In addition, CWP increased the mineralized nodules in MC3T3-E1 cells. Furthermore, CWP increased the expression of genes such as Runx2, ALP, OPN and OCN associated with osteoblast growth and differentiation in a dose-dependent manner.
