새 천년으로 들어선 2000년도부터 우리나라의 65세 이상 노령인구는 $7.1{\%}$를 차지하게 되어 본격적인 노령화사회 (UN에서 65세 이상인구가 총 인구의 $7{\%}$ 이상일 경우 노령화 사회로 정의)로 진입하였다. 평균수명의 계속적인 증가에 따라 노인 인구는 급격히 늘어날 전망이며, 따라서 노인성 질환의 발생도 늘어나게 되어 가정 또는 사회가 떠 맡아야할 경제적, 정신적 부담은 더욱 증가하게 된다. 건강하고 행복한 인생의 황혼기를 보내는 것은 인간의 권리이며 누구나 바라는 소망이다. 피부의 노화현상은 심장질환, 암 등에 못지 않게 중요하며, 노인의 경제적, 사회적 활동을 심각하게 위축시키고 있다. 피부노화를 예방하고 노인성 피부질환을 치료할 수 있는 방법을 개발함으로써 노인의 경제, 사회활동을 활동적으로 유지시킬 수 있다. 피부노화는 크게 두 종류로 나눌 수 있다. 그 한가지는 내인성노화(intrinsic aging)로서 세월이 흘러감에 따라 피할 수 없는 노화 현상을 말한다. 두번째는 광노화 (photoaging)로서 오랫동안 햇빛에 노출된 얼굴, 손등, 목뒤 등의 피부에서 관찰되는 노화현상을 말하는 것으로 내인성노화 현상과 자외선에 의한 영향이 합쳐진 결과로 발생한다. 광노화 현상은 자외선의 노출을 피하면 예방할 수 있는 피부노화 현상이다. 내인성 노화는 햇빛에 노출되지 않은 피부에서 주로 관찰된다. 임상적 특징은 비교적 경미하며, 잔주름, 피부건조증, 탄력감소 등을 들 수 있다. 그러나 광노화의 임상적 특징은 내인성 노화에 비하여 심하고, 일찍부터 관찰된다. 내인성 노화에 비하여 굵고 깊은 주름이 발생하며, 잔주름도 많이 발생한다. 햇빛에 노출된 피부에 불규칙한 색소침착이 발생하며 일광흑자 (solar lentigo) 등의 색소질환이 증가한다. 피부가 매우 거칠고, 건조해지며, 탄력성이 감소하여 심한경우 피부가 처지게 된다. 피부노화의 대표적인 증상은 주름살이며, 아직까지 그 발생기전에 대하여는 여러 가지 학설이 있으나 정확히 알려져 있지 않다. 피부에 존재하는 교원질, 탄력섬유등 기질단백질의 손상이 피부 주름살의 주 원인으로 알려져 있다. 또한 얼굴에 존재하는 근육의 분포와 움직임, 유전적 소인, 자외선, 흡연, 폐경, 산화적 손상, 열 등 여러 원인이 복합적으로 작용할 것으로 생각된다. 피부주름살의 원인을 밝히고, 원인인자가 피부주름살을 초래하는 분자생물학적 기전을 이해함으로써 주름살을 예방하고 치료할 수 있는 새로운 방법을 개발할 수 있다.

The present research integrated various theoretical perspectives of human unlawful behaviors in order to clarify the psychological mechanisms that underly the changes in compliance with and attitude toward law as time goes. Most well-known theories such as classical theory of crime, biosocial and evoluationary theories, and psychological perspectives including psycho-dynamic theory, personality, intellectual/moral development theories, and decision-making were discussed in their unique points in explaining human unlawful behaviors. Finally, social-learning theory and cognitive-dissonance theory has been suggested to explain the psychological mechanism of the phenomena in which people's attitude toward law and compliance with law become weaken through violation experiences of trivial lawful regulations. Especially, the logic of cognitive-dissonance theory (that people committed violation of trivial laws should experience dissonance with their original belief of compliance with law and negative arousal and try to remove the arousal by change their belief along with their behavior) were theoretically convincing to explain the phenomenon and supported by a series of experimental studies. Several practical implications for future constitutional and political activities were discussed in the basis of the cognitive dissonance theory.

Cleidocranial dysplasia(CCD) is a congenital disorder of skeletal and dental abnormality, which is a mesodermal dysfunction influencing many tisssues and organs. Skeletal abnormalities in CCD are delayed closure of cranial suture and fontanelle, presence of wormian bone and clavicle aplasia. CCD also has an effect on long bones, phalanges, spine, pelvis, muscles, and central nervous system. Dental manifestations include retention of deciduous teeth, multiple supernumerary teeth, delayed eruption or impaction of permanent teeth and formation of cysts around nonerupted teeth. However, due to lack of any substansive medical or physical disability, diagnosis is often late, thereby causing masticatory and psychological problems caused by delayed eruption of permanent teeth after exfoliation of deciduous teeth. For this reason, CCD requires early diagnosis, and the patient's appearance must be improved. Also, provision for a functional masticatiory mechanism by treatment of surgical removal of supernumerary teeth followed by orthodontic eruption of the natural permanent teeth at an adequate time is necessary.

Apert syndrome is an autosomal dominant condition characterized by craniosynostosis, midface hypoplasia, and syndactyly of the hands and feet. It occurs in about 1 of every 65,000 to 160,000 births and is caused by a mutation in the fibroblast growth factor receptor 2(FGFR2) gene. Apert syndrome typically produces acrobrachycephaly(tower skull). The occiput is flattened, and there is a tall appearance to the fore head. Ocular proptosis is a characteristic finding, along with hypertelorism and downward slanting lateral palpebral fissures. The middle third of the face is markedly retruded and hypoplastic, resulting in a relative mandibular prognathism. The reduced size of the nasopharynx and narrowing of the posterior choana can lead to mouth breathing, contributing to an open-mouth apprance. Three fourths of all patients exhibit either a cleft of the soft palate or a bifid uvula. The maxillary hypoplasia leads to a V-shaped arch and crowding of the teeth. A 6-year-old male patient visited to the Department of Pediatric dentistry, Kangnung National University of Dental Hospital. He visited the hospital to get treatment of carious teeth. The purpose of this report is to present a specific dental manifestations about the apert syndrome.

Lesch-Nyhan syndrome is a rare disorder of purine metabolism, first described in 1964. The incidence is estimated to be 1:100,000 birth. It is an X-linked recessive disorder in which affected males have a virtually complete deficiency of the enzyme hypoxanthine guanine phosphorybosyl transferase(HGPT). This enzyme deficiency gives rise to excessive uric acid production and consequent hyperuricemia. Lesch-Nyhan syndrome is clinically characterized by mental retardation, choreoathetosis, spastic cerebral palsy, and severe self-mutilation behavior. Patient with Lesch-Nyhan syndrome mostly bite their lip, tongue and finger. In severe cases, partial or total amputation of the lip and tongue is common. Self-inflicted bites are often further complicated by secondary infection to injuried site as well as pain. And tissue loss by biting results in esthetic problems. This report presents a Lesch-Nyhan syndrome patient with self-mutilation, who have a destruction of perioral tissue, especially the lower lip. He was treated successfully with soft mouthguard, psychological and pharmacological method.

It was measured to check the state of health education by the survey of the items related to the health with the first grade of students in middle school who mastered elementary courses. Totally 50 questions, which were selected from Standard and Dong-A reference books, were given to teachers and have got answered by the students who were totally 959(491 from urban areas and 468 from rural areas). It's done just after they entered middle school for a month, from April 10 to may 10, 1984. There were totally 782 items of health in all subjects of all grades. In contents, the most cases were about mental and emotional health(17.7%), exercise and rest (15.1%), environmental health, health life, personal health care, nutrition and foods, social health and organization, physiology and anatomy, statistics of public health population problem, disease and care, food sanitation, school health, parasitic and communicable disease control, eugenics and heredity(0.4%), etc were followed. In subjects, Korean language had 44.7% of mental and emotional health in 114 cases, arithmetics 46.4% of statistics of public health in 26, sociology, 23.1% of environmental health in 118, natural science, 60.1% of physiology and anatomy in 30, ethics, 40.3% of mental and emotional health in 176, music, 21.8% of mental and emotional health and accidents in 23, art, 42.9% of exercise and rest in 28, physical education, 38.6% of exercise and rest in 201, practical course, 36.2% of nutrition and foods in 61, and there was nothing but only one case in Korean history. Subjects in total cases of health informing items are below: Physical education 25.8, ethics 22.5%, sociology 15.1%, Korean language 14.6%, practical course 7.8%, natural science 3.8%, art 3.6%, arithmetics 3.3%, music 2.9%, Korean history 0.6%. Grades in total cases of health informing items are belows: the sixth grade 29.1%, the fourth grade 21.2%, the fifth grade 18.9%, the third grade 11.6%, the first grade 11.5%, the second grade 7.7%. The sections related to health matters were average 35.4%. According to the grades, the fourth and the sixth grade were 38.2% each other, the highest, and the second grade was 29.3%, the lowest. All scetions in physical education included them. The acceptability to the knowledge for health was belows: 56.3% in urban students and 53.9% in rural students. There was some difference in acceptability between two parties (p<0.005).

This study aimed to investigate the current uses of subheadings that appear in medical science journal abstracts and to discuss its potential implications for medical science from the perspectives of library and information science. To conduct this study, the following nine sub-fields in medical science were selected: cancer, ethics, genetics, infectious disease, neurology, pediatrics, immunology, psychiatry, and cardiology. Random sample data were drawn based on the years 2010 to 2015 from the PubMed database. This study investigated the extent of the uses of subheadings, variants of subheadings, and common formation of subheadings with the help of a frequency analysis. The specific findings of this study are summarized as the following: 1) more traditional abstracts are used across almost all sub-fields of medical science; 2) on average, 4.1 subheadings were used in the sample dataset; and 3) the most frequently used set of subheadings is OBJECTIVES, METHODS, RESULTS, and CONCLUSIONS. This subheading set appears to be the de facto standard across all medical science journals. The analysis of subheadings in structured abstracts and the issues raised in this study can be beneficial for journal editors and other academics in medical science as well as library and information science.

The clinical features of ring chromosome 13 include mental and growth retardation, CNS anomalies, facial dysmorphism, cardiac defects, genital malformations, limb anomalies, skeletal deformities and anal malformations. Although many cases of ring chromosome 13 have been reported worldwide, only 6 cases have been reported in Korea, and the latter cases were not mosaic but pure ring chromosome 13. Here we report a case with mosaic ring chromosome 13. The baby boy was born at 37 weeks of gestation by induced vaginal delivery due to intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). He was the second baby of a 28-year-old hepatitis B carrier mother and a 32-year-old father. There was no family history of chromosomal anomalies. The baby was a symmetric IUGR with a birth weight of 1,860 g, length of 44.8 cm, and head circumference of 29.4 cm. The physical examination revealed microcephaly, trigonocephaly, flat occiput, large ears, short neck and dysmorphic facial features, including microophthalmia, hypertelorism, antimongoloid slanting palpebral fissures, a flat nasal bridge, and micrognathia. The karyotype of this patient performed by peripheral blood lymphocytes was 46,XY,r(13)(p13q34)/45,XY,-13/46,XY,dic r(13;13)(p13q34;p13q34). The baby showed failure to thrive, hypotonia, and developmental delay. We report the first case of mosaic ring chromosome 13 in a male baby in Korea and compare this case with other Korean cases of non-mosaic ring chromosome 13.

Nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome is an ecto-mesodermal polydysplasia with numerous manifestations that affect multiple organs. The syndrome is an autosomal dominant inherited, with a high penetration and visible expression. The syndrome is characterized by a series of associated anomalies such as cutaneous, dentofacial, skeletal, ophthalmologic, neurological, and genital anomalies. Generally, the jaw cysts are multiple odontogenic keratocysts, affecting any area of maxilla and mandible. Multiple odontogenic keratocysts of this syndrome are more recurrent than the keratocysts of non-syndrome, thus they are treated aggressively for complete removal. We report a case of multiple jaw cysts associated with nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome. In clinical and radiological examinations, frontal bossing, hypertelorism, mild mental retardation and two odontogenic keratocysts in both the maxilla and mandible were observed. Two cysts were treated by marsupialization. For the management of eruption of unerupted teeth, periodic recall check and orthodontic treatment are required.
