Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is an uncommon form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma involving the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue. Most commonly affected organ is the stomach. But, it could affect almost every organ in the whole body. If they have suspicious lesion, excision biopsy could be made. For staging, blood test including blood smear, abdomen and chest tomography or scan will be checked. Also, bone marrow test can be done if it is needed. The patient had visited the clinic for palpable mass on right lower eyelid. With excisional biopsy, it was diagnosed as lymphoid hyperplasia on pathologic test. But 2 years later, the patient came with recurrent symptom for our department with worry. At that time, we recommended excisional soft tissue biopsy under general anesthesia. Unfortunately, it was revealed MALT lymphoma on pathologic finding. It turned out to be stage 3 in Ann Arbor staging system without B symptoms. Hematologic consultation was made and she was treated with adjuvant chemotherapy for eight cycles to complete remission. We report a case of MALT lymphoma on subcutaneous tissue at right lower eyelid previously diagnosed as lymphoid hyperplasia.

Objective: This study evaluated the influence of various gingival displays on the esthetic perception in the presence of upper dental midline discrepancy. Methods: A smiling image of a male subject was altered digitally to produce five image series: normal smile (series A), decreased tooth show (series B), increased gingival show (series C), maxillary cant (series D), and asymmetric upper lip elevation (series E). In each image series, the midline was deviated to the right and left incrementally. A total of 210 raters (four professional groups and laypersons, n = 42 in each group) determined the midline deviation threshold and the attractiveness of midline position in each series. Results: The right and left thresholds were statistically similar for the symmetrical series (A, B, and C), while for series D, the right threshold was significantly lower. In most rater groups, the mean threshold order was: B > A > E > C > D. In all the series, the raters selected the coincident midline as the most attractive series except for series D, for which 1-2-mm deviations to the left were selected as the most attractive by almost all the groups. Conclusions: It is crucial to establish the coincident midline position in a symmetrical smile, especially when a gummy smile exists. In the asymmetrical gingival show, a coincident midline might not be the most esthetic midline position.

The author extended the small properties of topological semilattices to that of regular semigroups [3]. In this paper, it could be shown that a semigroup S is almost regular if and only if over bar RL = over bar R.cap.L for every right ideal R and every left ideal L of S. Moreover, it has shown that the Bohr compactification of an almost regular semigroup is regular. Throughout, a semigroup will mean a topological semigroup which is a Hausdorff space together with a continuous associative multiplication. For a semigroup S, we denote E(S) by the set of all idempotents of S. An element x of a semigroup S is called regular if and only if x .mem. xSx. A semigroup S is termed regular if every element of S is regular. If x .mem. S is regular, then there exists an element y .mem S such that x xyx and y = yxy (y is called an inverse of x) If y is an inverse of x, then xy and yx are both idempotents but are not always equal. A semigroup S is termed recurrent( or almost pointwise periodic) at x .mem. S if and only if for any open set U about x, there is an integer p > 1 such that x$^{p}$ .mem.U.S is said to be recurrent (or almost periodic) if and only if S is recurrent at every x .mem. S. It is known that if x .mem. S is recurrent and .GAMMA.(x)=over bar {x,x$^{2}$,..,} is compact, then .GAMMA.(x) is a subgroup of S and hence x is a regular element of S.

The objective of this paper was to evaluate the effectiveness of horizontal, vertical, asymmetric and coupling multipliers for manual material handling. Lifting tasks with 5 different horizontal distances ($30{\sim}70cm$) for 6 vertical distances(ankle, knee, waist, elbow, shoulder and head height) were experimented. The muscle activity and muscle exertion level during asymmetric load handling(without trunk flexion) was experimented. Lifting tasks with and without handle tote box for three postures(straight, bending, right angle posture) were experimented. The degrading tendency did not appeared almost in $60{\sim}70cm$ interval's horizontal distance. As a result of ANOVA, MVC paid attention to horizontal and vertical distance but cross effect was insignificant(p<0.01). The change of the MVC according to the horizontal, vertical distance appeared similar from of RWL. The results of normalized MVC measurement were decreased about 16%, 24%, 34% respectively as the asymmetry angle was $30^{\circ}$, $60^{\circ}$, $90^{\circ}$. RMS EMG values of right erector spinae muscles were decreased as the work posture went to $90^{\circ}$ and those of left erector spinae muscles were increased until the asymmetry angle was $40^{\circ}$ but decreased continually over $40^{\circ}$. 7 subjects, activities of left and right latissimus dorsi muscles were maintained constantly, while for remainer, those were irregular. MVC reduced maximum 23% by type of handle. MVC was highest in straight posture, but was lowest in right angle posture. As a result of ANOVA, MVC paid attention to posture, coupling(p<0.01). To all handle types, biceps brachii activity was increased in right angle posture, but reduced in straight posture. Based on the results of this study, it is suggested that the NIOSH guideline should not be directly applied to Korean without reasonable reexamination. In addition, we need to afterward study through an age classification.

To know the proper impact posture and changes for the various clubs, changes of impact variables according to the change of golf club length was investigated. Swing motions of three male low handicappers including a professional were taken using two high-speed video cameras. Four clubs iron 7, iron 5, iron 3 and driver (wood 1) were selected for this experiment. Three dimensional motion analysis techniques were used to get the kinematical variables. Mathcad and Kwon3D motion analysis program were used to analyze the position, distance and angle data in three dimensions. Major findings of this study were as follows. 1. Lateral position of the head remained more right side of the target up to 3.5cm compared to the setup as the length of the club increased. 2. Left shoulder raised up to 5cm and right shoulder lowered up to 2.5cm compared to setup. The shoulder line opened slightly (maximum 11 degrees) to the target line. 3. Forward lean angle of the trunk decreased up to 4 degrees (more erected) compared to setup. 4. Side lean angle of the trunk increased compared to setup and increased up to 16 degrees as the club length increased. 5. The pelvis moved to the target line direction horizontally and opened up to 31 degrees. Right hip moves laterally to the grip position at the setup. 6. Flexion of the left leg maintained almost constantly but the right leg flexed up to 11 degrees compared to setup. 7. Left arm is straightened but the right arm flexed about 20degrees compared to straight. 8. Center of the shoulders were in front of the knees and toes of the feet. 9. Hands moved to the left (8.7cm), forward (5.7cm) and upward (11.6cm) compared to the setup. This is because of the rotation of pelvis and shoulders. 10. Shaft angle to the ground was smaller than the lie angle of the clubs but it increased close to the lie of the clubs at impact.

In order to evaluate the noisy environment and hearing loss of workers served in noisy working environment, the author investigated 212 manufacturing industries located in Ulsan Industrial District that could be observed for 3 successive years from 1986 to 1988. The obtained results were as follows: 1. There was increased tendency in the number of workers served in noisy working environment and that of examined of hearing loss for three years. 2. In the noise level of working environment, the number of industries less than 89dB(A) was increased every year, while more than 90dB(A) was in decreasing tendency. 3. Mean hearing loss by frequency was the most prominent in 4,000Hz, the level of hearing loss was in increasing tendency yearly, and that of left eat was higher than right ear in almost all type of industry. 4. In 1986, the level of hearing loss by type of industry was highest in manufacture of electric and electronic, and followed by paper and plywood, and metal products in right ear: that was in the order of manufacture of electric and electronic, metal products and textile products in left ear. In 1987, that was in the order of manufacture of metal products, machinery and others in right ear, and metal products, machinery and food stuff in left ear in 1988, manufacture of others, food stuff and machinery in both ear. 5. In hearing loss by service duration, right ear of 5-9 years group was higher than that of less than 5 years in 1987, whereas in 1988, the longer in service duration, the higher in the level of hearing loss in both ear. 6. In 1986, 1987 and 1988, the prevalence rate of noise-induced hearing loss were showed increasing tendency as 0.4% ,0.8% and 1.5% , respectively, and manufacture of textile products was highest(1.0%) in 1986, machinery(1.2%) in 1987 and others(2.8%) in 1988. 7. The proportion of grade E in early loss index were 76.1% (1986), 78.2% (1987) and 80.5% (1988) in left ear, 75.9% (1986), 76.4% (1987) and 75.9% (1988) in right ear.

In this paper, all near-rings R are left near-rings and all representations of R are (right) R-groups. We start with a study of AR, almost AR and AGR rings which are motivated by the works on the Sullivan's Problem [10] and its properties. Next, for any R-group G, we introduce a notion of R-groups with M R-property and investigate their properties and some characterizations of these R-groups. Finally, for the faithful M R-property, we get a commutativity of near-rings and rings.

The hollow stalk, caused by Erwinia carotovors var. carotovora, is probaly the most devastating disease to burley tobacco in Korea. There are two modes of infection to tobacco plants: the primary infection along the plant stem from soil and the secondary one from the topped end of plants. The secondary infection rate could be reduced to almost zero by applying an antibiotic, streptomycin sulfate(400 ppm solution), right after topping.

$TGF-{\beta}$ is one of growth factors that may be involved in the formation of bone and cartilage. Multiple studies demonstrate that $TGF-{\beta}$ is involved in regulating cell proliferation, differentiation and matrix synthesis, events observed in frature healing. The apperance of $TGF-{\beta}$ in the fracture during healing was evaluated by immunohistologic localization of $TGF-{\beta}$ using antibody. Twenty Sprauge-Dawley strain white male rats, each weiging about 150grams were used and divided two groups. The one group, the $2{\times}2mm$ bony defect was formed in the right femur. The other group, $4{\times}2mm$ bony defect was formed in right femur. Both group were sacrificed at 3day, 1, 2, 3, 4 week and femur were harvested, paraffin sections were stained with H & E, MT stain, immunihistochemical staining with $TGF-{\beta}$ antibody and observed under light microscope. The result were as follows: 1. New bone formation and cartilagenous tissue was seen at 3day. And in the $2{\times}2mm$ bony defect group, $TGF-{\beta}$ stained the cell surounding new bone. 2. The osteoclast and trabecular was seen at 1week. $TGF-{\beta}$ stained the osteoblast and in the $2{\times}2mm$ bony defect group was stained more than $4{\times}2mm$ bony defect group. 3. The lamella bone and trabecule was seen from 3, 4week, and $TGF-{\beta}$ stained almost negative. From the above finding, we could concluded that $TGF-{\beta}$ stained the osteoblast at early stage and 1week, the peak stain was seen from 1week, and then decreased, almost negative stain was seen at 3, 4week.

This study analyzed changes to copyright policies in KCI journals comparatively using the previous 2 research results published in 2008 and 2016 and then gave insight into the meaning of the changes. The results of the study are as follows: Journals making the subject of copyright public had increased from 34% in 2008 to 67% in 2016. Journals transferring copyright from authors remained almost the same, with only a slight increase from 90% to 91% in the same period. Journals using the term 'publication rights' instead of 'copyright' had decreased; on the other hand, journals using the term 'reproduction right' and 'right of transmission' had increased. Use of copyright transfer agreement had increased from 25% to 50%; on the other hand, self archiving policy remained almost the same, decreasing slightly from 13% to 12%. This study argues that these changes mean the establishment of copyright industrialization for Korean journals and that the publishing bodies appear to be the most powerful main agent among stakeholders participating in scholarly publishing in this process.
