Objective: To estimate dental maturity using the Demirjian Index for the mandibular third molar and investigate the relationships between dental maturity and skeletal maturity among growing children. Methods: The samples were derived from panoramic, lateral cephalometric and hand-wrist radiographs of 270 female subjects registered as patients at the orthodontic department, dental hospital, Yonsei University. Dental maturity [Demirjian Index (DI)] and skeletal maturity [skeletal maturation indicators (SMIs)] and cervical vertebrae maturation indicators (CVMIs)] were estimated from these radiographs. Results: There was a significant correlation (r = 0.64) between SMIs and DI, and a similar correlation (r = 0.59) was observed between CVMIs and DI (p < 0.001). If DI was above Stage E, then the SMI was above Stage 10 and the CVMI was above Stage 5. There was a weak correlation (r = 0.26) between age at menarche and DI (p < 0.001). There was no significant difference in DI among Class I, II or III malocclusions. Conclusions: Dental maturity evaluation using the mandibular third molar will be an adjunctive tool in combination with cervical vertebrae and hand-wrist maturity evaluations.

비타민은 미량영양소로서 체내에서 여러가지 중요한 작용을 하여 가축이 정상적인 발육과 성장과 번식을 할 수 있도록 하여 준다. 앞으로 이들 미량영양소의 요구량에 대한 실제적인 권장량이 결정되어서 이들의 결핍에 의한 손실을 줄여야 되겠다.

형제수, 출산순위, 출산터울, 모성의 출산시 연령 등 가족형성 양상은 아동의 신체적 발육 성장 및 지능발달과 강한 관련성을 보여 왔음이 세계 여러나라 아동을 대상으로 수행된 연구에서 보고되었다. 본 연구는 형제수와 출산순위, 그리고 출산시 모성의 연령은 아동의 신체적 지능적 발달과는 역상관관계를, 출산터울의 길이는 순상관관계를 나타낼 것이라는 가설을 증명하고자 1984년 한국중학생 1,2,3학년 약 46,000명을 대상으로 수행되었다. 지역별 그리고 사회경제적 상태별 비교를 위하여 서울시 고소득층이 주로 거주하는 학구내의 중학교와 저소득층이 거주하는 학구내 중학교 각각 5개를 선정하고 강원도내 전형적 농촌의 중학교 12개를 선정하여 신장, 체중, 좌고, 혈구용적 지능지수를 측정하였다. 이들 측정치들의 평균은 학부모와 담임선생님의 도움으로 작성된 가족형성 변수별로 비교되었으며 다중 희귀분석과 부분상관분석으로 연관성의 통계적 유의성을 검정하였다. 동일연령의 신체적 발육성장 지표들은 도시의 고소득지역 아동들이 가장 우수했으며 다음이 도시저소득 지역 아동이었고 농촌아동이 가장 빈약하였다. 남녀별 신체적 발육지표들의 차이는 연령이 많을수록 더 현저했으며 연령별 지역별 차이는 남학생에게서 더 두드러졌다. 평균 지능지수는 도시고소득지역 남학생들이 월등히 높아 114.8인데 비해 도시저소득지역 남학생들은 106.1, 그리고 농촌 남학생들은 105.3이었다. 남학생보다는 여학생의 지능지수가 낮았는데 이것은 대만 아동들도 여학생이 모든 연령에서 남학생보다 낮았다는 보고와 일치하였다. 한편 도시저소득지역과 농총지역 학생들은 남녀모두 평균지능지수가 비슷하였다. 가족형성변수들은 혼란변수들은 모든 제어했을 경우에도 아동들의 신체적 지능적 발달에 독립적으로 영향을 미쳤다. 발육지표중에 지능지수와 형제수가 가장 가족형성 변수들과의 연관성이 강했다.

Antioxidants(N-acetyl-1-cysteine, ebselen and glutathione) and growth factors(EGF, PDGF) were studied as a mean of increasing the development of porcine embryos produced by in vitro maturation (IVM) and in vitro fertilization(IVF). Porcine embryos developed to the 2~8 cell stage after IVF were cultured fer 6 to 7 days at 38.5$^{\circ}C$ in NCSU 23 medium containing antioxidants plus growth factors. Cell numbers of blastocysts were counted by fluorescence staining method. The developmental rate beyond morula stages in NCSU 23 containing NAC(1nm) or NAC(1nm) plus EGF(100ng/$m\ell$) or PDGF(5ng/$m\ell$) were 28.1, 32.3 and 35.3%, respectively. NAC plus PDGF group was slightly higher than control group(P>0.05). The developmental capacity in NCSU 23 containing ebselen(10 $\mu$M) or ebselen(10 $\mu$M) plus EGF(100ng/$m\ell$) or PDGF(5ng/$m\ell$) were 17.8, 36.9 and 40.3%, respectively Ebselen plus growth factor groups were significantly higher than control group(P<0.05). The developmental capacity in NCSU 23 containing glutathione(100 $\mu$M) or glutathione(100 $\mu$M) plus EGF (100ng/$m\ell$) or PDGF(5ng/$m\ell$) were 24.1, 30.5 and 27.7%, respectively. There were not difference in all experimental groups(P>0.05). In all experimental groups, there was no significantly differences on the cell number of blastocysts, but ebselen plus growth factor groups were significantly higher than control group. These studies indicate that antioxidants plus growth factors can increase the proportion of embryos that developed beyond morulae stage.

낭은 상피세포로 싸여있는 병적인 공간으로 내부가 액체나 반액체로 채워져 있다. 악골에서 낭은 다른 골 부위에서보다 더 흔하게 발생하는데 이는 대부분의 낭이 치아 형성 후에 악골에 남아있는 치성잔류물로부터 발생하는 경우가 많기 때문이다. 구강악안면부에서 발생하는 낭은 연조직에서 발생할 수도 있지만 대부분 골내에서 발생하고, 법랑질 상피나 치배와 관련해 악골내에 발생하는 치낭성이다. 치낭성은 WHO분류에서 발생근원에 따라 크게 염증성과 발육성 기원의 두 가지 군으로 분류되고, 발육성 낭은 치성과 비치성으로 세분할 수 있다. 악골에 발생하는 낭은 대부분이 치낭성이며 가장 흔한 악골 낭종은 치근단낭으로 염증성이고, 발육성인 함치성낭과 치성각화낭도 다음으로 발생률이 높은 편이다. 소아환자에서 함치성낭과 치성각화낭의 발병률이 성인보다 더 높았다. 비치성낭 중에서 비구개관낭이 가장 많이 발생하며, 연조직에서 발생하는 낭과 상피세포 경계가 없는 낭성 병소인 가성낭(pseudocyst)은 드물게 관찰된다. WHO에서 치성각화낭과 서회화치성낭은 파괴적 성장을 하고 재발 경향이 높으므로 양성 낭성 종양으로 재분류하고 있다.

This study is aimed to establish the direction of orthodontic treatment by analyzing the differences in the dental arch development due to the cause of short stature. Dental diagnostic tests were conducted on patients who were diagnosed with short stature. Idiopathic short statured children were classified through the paired sampling based on the age and gender of a short statured children with growth hormone shortage. Control groups were classified using same method as above, after selecting candidates with an arch length of less than 3mm and malocclusion. In conclusion, short statured children with growth hormone shortage or idiopathic had the higher rate of crowding and the small value of overbite compared to normal children. Therefore orthodontic treatment for short statured children needs treatment plan included evaluation for Arch length discrepancy to treat a crowding early. This study will provide important data for successful orthodontic treatment according to the characteristics of dental occlusion of short statured children.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the nutrients intake situation and the physical growth and development of junior high school girls in cheju island, the peculiar area in Korea, and to study every possible correlation ketween daily food intake and growth rate of them. Further, it made an attempt to research nutrition problems for them in this area and assist in their growth and development through proper nutritional marragement. The survey was conducted in seven sample schods selected randomly from all three districts -this is Bukcheju-gun, Namcheju-gun and cheju city-of cheju Island. Four hundred eighteen girls, aged thirteen years ald, in second year grade of junior high schools, were provided with prepared questionnaires. For six days, July $16{\sim}21$ in 1975, the respondents filled out the questionnaires. They were asked to keep record of what they ate each meat. Their mitrients intake were analyzed in accordance with their daily food intake records during a six day period. On the other side, including physical growth index calculated by means of weight and hight of the respondents, their school records were also investigated. Critical Ratio as well as percentage calculation were included for statistical analysis. The findings and results abtained are summarized as follows: (1) Living circumstance a) Average numbers of brother and sister in sampled pupils' family were five. b) Niety percent of the respondents were brought up by mother's milk at their infants and 45 percent of them were weaned at the age of 13 to 24 months. c) Fourty-six percent of them revealed irregulity in their meal time. d) The most favorite main dish was boiled rice mixed other cereals (34%), next bread (31%) and boiled noodle (26%), and kimchi was the most papular side dish (64%). (2) Nutrition survey a) The average calorie intake of a pupil per day was 1,783 cal. and the total calorie intake was composed of carbohydrate 73%, pratein 15%, fat 12% respectively. b) Carolie and nutrients were lower than the recommended level, except vitamins A,$B_1$ and Niacin, c) Average protein intake per day was 68g, which was relatively near to the recommended level, but in fact, most of them came from grain which is lacking in essential amino acids. The ratio of animal protein intake to tatal protein intake was 36%. d) Their average animal food intake was proportionated in 14% in their total food intake and the cereals consumed in the largest quantity at the level of 63% out of whole food groups. (3) The results of statistical analysis a) The correlation between the calorie intake and the physical growth index revealed statistical significancy at the level of P<.005. b) The correlation between the protein intake and the physical growth index revealed statistical significancy at the level of .01
