Mixed juice of pear and strawberry was fermented by commercial Saccharomyces cerevisiae C-2 at $25^{\circ}C$ for 7 days and obtained the pear-strawberry fermentative concentrates (PSFC). The PSFC showed high ACE inhibitory activity of 70.8%. The PSFC drink was prepared by using PSFC and by-materials including amylopeptide, and determined changes of quality and ACE inhibitory activity during storage of $20^{\circ}C$ and $40^{\circ}C$. PSFC drink was very stable at storage of $20^{\circ}C$ for 8 weeks without any quality and ACE inhibitory activity.

Purpose: In reconstructing a defect on the dorsum of the hand, there are many cases of extensor tendons exposed or even missing. The repaired or reconstructed tendons need relevant gliding environment for good functional recovery. The anterolateral thigh flap offers a vascular fascial component with large amounts that can be used for covering exposed tendons and we report a unique case of single-stage hand dorsum and gliding surface reconstruction. Methods: A 35-year-old man had severe post-traumatic scarring in his left dorsal hand and coverage of the flap with split-thickness skin graft has been done before. After scarred skin excision and extensor tendon graft for missed part, a free anterolateral thigh adipofascial flap was used to resurface the hand dorsum and to reconstruct a two-layer gliding surface of the extensor tendons. The extensor tendons were wrapped in the fascial component with the fat layer inside. Results: He had an uneventful postoperative course without infection, dehiscence and flap necrosis. Good overall functional recovery and tendon excursion were observed. He was also satisfied with postoperative appearance. Conclusion: A free anterolateral thigh adipofascial flap was used successfully for reconstruction of a two-layer tendon gliding surface to treat a patient with severe scarring in the dorsal hand.

본 연구에서는 환자의 골다공증 유무에 따른 내고정 장치 시술 직후 및 융합 후의 안정성을 평가하기 위해 다양한 하중 모드에서 C5-C6 운동분절의 생체역학적 거동을 분석하였다. 이러한 목적으로 먼저, C5-C6 경추부의 유한요소 모델을 구현하여 검증하였다. 모델의 결과는 기존 실험치와 유사하여 신뢰성이 부여되었다. 검증된 모델은 Smith-Robinson 방식으로 골이식물을 삽입한 후 전방 내고정 장치를 적용한 시술 상황을 재현하기 위해 수정되었다. 수정된 모델은 두 종류로 구현되었다. (1) 첫 번째 모델에서는, 시술 직후의 상황을 재현하기 위해 골이식물과 종판의 경계면에 접촉요소를 사용하였다. (2)두 번째 모델에서는 완전히 융합된 상황을 나타내기 위해 골이식물을 종판에 고정하였다. 골다공증의 효과를 예측하기 위하여 두 모델의 해면골에 대한 탄성계수를 변화시켰다(정상: 100MPa, 골다공증: 40MPa). 각 모델의 C5 주체의 상위면에 73.6N의 압축 하중을 가한 후에 108Nm의 굴곡/신전, 굽힘, 비틀림 하중을 가하였으며, C6 추체의 하단면은 모든 방향에 대하여 구속하였다. 전체적인 결과에 있어서 상대적 회전운동, 미끄럼운동, 골이식물 내에서의 von Mises 응력의 경우 정상 모델에 비해 골다공증 모델에서 증가함을 보였으며, 특히 시술 직후의 모델에서 비틀림 하중이 가해진 경우, 상대적 회전운동 및 미끄럼 운동이 가장 높게 예측되었다. 이는 골다공증환자에게 전방 내고정 장치를 시술한 경우 골이식물의 파단 및 유합의 실패가 비틀림 하중에서 발생할 수 있음을 나타낸다. 해면골의 von Mises 응력은 시술 직후에 골다공증 모델의 모든 하중 모드에서, 유합 후에는 굽힘 하중 외의 모든 하중에서 ultimate strength를 초과하는 것으로 나타나 골다공증 환자에게 screw의 해리가 발생할 가능성이 높은 것으로 예측되었다. 따라서 골다공증 환자에게 과도한 운동이 발생하지 않도록 하기 위해서 시술 후 세심한 주의와 halo 같은 견고한 정형술이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the kinematic characteristics of children with Down syndrome got congenitally joint laxity and muscle hypotonic. The subjects are boys with Down syndrome and don't have the other disabilities. We got three dimensional position data and then calculated spatiotemporal and kinematic variables during walking on treadmill used increasingly for gait analysis and training. In result, in order to overcome their gait instability due to their musculoskeletal characteristics they walked with hip, knee and ankle joints more flexed than the typical gait pattern, and on the propulsion phase they extend the lower limb joints less than the typical, result in propel the body less than. The reason is that the more is the propulsion by extending the joints, the greater is the reaction force from the ground on heel contact. This result is expected to be used to develop the training program for intensification of musculoskeletal system aim to improve the other musculoskeletal disabilities as well as Down syndrome.

Tibial eminence fracture is caused by distortion, excessive flexion and extension, varus and valgus injury of the knee joint in the form of avulsion fracture. A failure over the exact anatomical reduction of fragment can lead to instability and limitation of joint motion. Recently, a variety of arthroscopic assisted reduction and fixation technique have been used. In the tibial eminence fracture, we created an arthroscopic pull-out wire fixation technique using a cannulated screw that is easy and more convenient than in the conventional technique. So we report this technique with a review of current literatures.

Background: This study aimed to use the muscle energy technique (MET) with total knee replacement (TKR) during the chronic phase in a clinical setting and confirm its effects on the knee extensor strength and ROM, balance, and walking ability. Methods: A total of 20 female patients who underwent TKR 1~4 years ago were assigned to two groups (Control: Q setting exercise+general physical therapy, n=10; Exp: MET+general physical therapy, n=10). Interventions were performed three times a week for 4 weeks. The strength of the knee extensor was evaluated using an aneroid sphygmomanometer, and ROM was evaluated using degrees at the end range on active knee flexion. The main balance outcomes were evaluated using two standard scale (TSS) and timed up and go (TUG) test, whereas the walking ability was evaluated using the 10 meter walk test (10MWT). Results: Analysis showed that both groups had significant increases in strength, ROM, TSS, TUG, and 10MWT. Differences in all variables were significant between the control and Exp groups at the post-intervention evaluation (p<.05). However, no significant difference was observed in strength and TUG. Conclusion: Results of this study demonstrated that MET would help improve the strength, ROM, balance, and walking ability of patients with chronic TKR who want to enhance their abilities and performance in activities of daily living.

Background: The effect of the Valsalva maneuver applied in resistance exercise has shown contradictory results. This study aims to investigate the effect of the Valsalva maneuver on resistance exercise by examining the changes that occur by applying the Valsalva maneuver during trunk flexion and extension resistance exercise in healthy adults. Design: Randomized controlled trial. Methods: 34 healthy adults were conveniently recruited. According to the with or without Valsalva maneuver, the flexion and extension of the trunk were measured and evaluated. Results: Paired t test showed that there was a statistically significant difference in maximum torque of trunk flexion in the resistance exercise with Valsalva maneuver. However, there was no statistically significant difference in trunk extension (p<.05), in the total and average work of trunk flexion and extension (p<.05). Conclusion: The results of this study in which the difference in the amount of exercise according to the application of the Valsalva maneuver was not significant, show that the practice of the Valsalva maneuver, which has a risk of injury, should be avoided in rehabilitation exercises.
