  • The present randomized controlled trial aimed to evaluate changes in occlusion of indirect restorations before and after attachment using resin cement according to universal adhesives. This study included patients who underwent indirect restoration treatment at the Yonsei University Dental Hospital between April and October 2016. Universal adhesives requiring light curing and those not requiring light curing were used in this study. Changes in occlusion before and after adhesion of the indirect restoration were evaluated using articulating paper and shimstock as well as through the discomfort felt by the patients. To analyze the differences between the universal adhesive, Fisher's exact tests were performed using SPSS ver. 22.0 software. Of the 39 cases of indirect restoration, 29 were included in the study. A change in occlusion after adhesion of the indirect restoration was observed in only one case of universal adhesive that required light curing. The patient felt that the occlusion increased after the attachment of the restoration, and it was observed that the occlusion point was different from that before attachment. However, the results of the analysis were not statistically significant. Based on the findings, the universal adhesives did not affect the occlusion before and after indirect adhesion restoration using RelyX Ultimate.

  • In modern orthodontics, the most emphasized problems are, as Bjork said in his literature, how to control entirely the growth and development and conservation of teeth: how to diminish the damages of orthodontic treament to the teeth. As a solution of these problems Bjork introduced the method of early orthodontic diagnosis. The study of occlusion of primary dentition has two main purposes: 1. To observe the change of occlusion as age increases. 2. To predict the change of occlusion to make early diagnosis possible. From early nineteeth century, Bogue (1908) started the study of occlusion of primary dentition, followed by Bonnar (1956-1960), Kisling (1973-1976), Ravn 1975), Foster (1969), Moyer (1969), etc. These studies have been used in the diagnosis of preventive orthodontics. In Korea, the study of occlusion of primary dentition was started in 1977. The second study was reported in 1978. Through the third report in 1979, author will introduce sagittal relation in the canine and incisor regions of Korean children.

  • Focusing on the issue that the conventional Kernel Correlation Filter (KCF) algorithm has poor performance in handling scale change and obscured objects, this paper proposes an anti-occlusion and scale adaptive tracking algorithm in the basis of KCF. The average Peak-to Correlation Energy and the peak value of correlation filtering response are used as the confidence indexes to determine whether the target is obscured. In the case of non-occlusion, we modify the searching scheme of the KCF. Instead of searching for a target with a fixed sample size, we search for the target area with multiple scales and then resize it into the sample size to compare with the learnt model. The scale factor with the maximum filter response is the best target scaling and is updated as the optimal scale for the following tracking. Once occlusion is detected, the model updating and scale updating are stopped. Experiments have been conducted on the OTB benchmark video sequences for compassion with other state-of-the-art tracking methods. The results demonstrate the proposed method can effectively improve the tracking success rate and the accuracy in the cases of scale change and occlusion, and meanwhile ensure a real-time performance.

  • Objective : Some neurosurgeons intentionally ligate the branches of the superficial temporal artery (STA) that are not used in standard STA-to-middle cerebral artery (MCA) anastomosis for the purpose of improving the flow rate in the bypass graft. We investigated changes in bypass flow during temporary occlusion of such unused branches of the STA. Methods : Bypass blood flow was measured by a quantitative microvascular ultrasonic flow probe before and after temporary occlusion of branches of the STA that were not used for anastomosis. We performed measurements on twelve subjects and statistically assessed changes in flow. We also examined all the patients with digital subtraction angiography in order to observe any post-operative changes in STA diameter. Results : Initial STA flow ranged from 15 mL/min to 85 mL/min, and the flow did not change significantly during occlusion as compared with preocclusion flow. The occlusion time was extended by 30 minutes in all cases, but this did not contribute to any significant flow change. Conclusion : The amount of bypass flow in the STA seems to be influenced not by donor vessel status but by recipient vessel demand. Ligation of the unused STA branch after completion of anastomosis does not contribute to improvement in bypass flow immediately after surgery, and furthermore, carries some risk of skin necrosis. It is better to leave the unused branch of the STA intact for use in secondary operation and to prevent donor vessel occlusion.

  • Occlusion may change spontaneously but dental treatment or trauma in the patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) may also alter occlusion. This report presents three cases displaying occlusal changes. Review of literature emphasizes the significance of TMD treatment. Conservative treatment modalities such as counseling, medication, physical therapy and splint therapy may be selected as initial treatment options. Irreversible or invasive treatment, such as orthodontic, prosthodontic, and occlusal adjustment should not be attempted early. In case there is no response to conservative treatment, joint injection, muscle injection, arthrocentesis or arthroscopic surgery might be performed.

  • Direct carotid-cavernous fistula [CCF] is a common post-traumatic disease. However, pseudoaneurysm formation after balloon occlusion is a rare complication. The author present such a case with review of the literature. A 26-year-old man involved in a motor vehicle accident as a driver. Only mild conjunctival injection and minimal exophthalmos on the right eye were noted after trauma. However, angiography revealed a direct CCF and dissection of the proximal intracranial internal carotid artery [ICA]. After first balloon occlusion of the CCF, the patient redeveloped fistula due to early deflation of the balloon. After the second balloon occlusion, pseudoaneurysm and diplopia were developed with the change of balloon position and shape. However, visual symptom spontaneously resolved and pseudoaneurysm was also decreased within 6 months after balloon occlusion.

  • In this study the occlusion of dural-sac, the outer membrane of spinal cord in the lumbar region, was quantitatively analyzed using one motion segment finite element model. Occlusion was quantified by calculating cross sectional area change of dural-sac far different compressive impact duration(loading rate) due to bony fragment at the posterior wall of the cortical shell in vertebral body. Dural-sac was occluded most highly in the range of 8∼12 msec impact duration by the bony fragment intruding into the spinal canal. t=400 msec case 4% cross sectional area change was calculated, which is the same as the cross sectional area change under 6 kN of static compressive loading.

  • Renal compensatory adaptation caused by ablation of a part of renal mass has long been known in the field of the compensatory renal hypertrophy or hyperplasia. Many reports were found on the chronic mechanisms on the compensatory renal hyperfunction after exclusion of the contralateral kidney. However the mechanism(s) of the acute compensatory hyperfunction after contralateral exclusion has not yet been clarified. In the present experiment, we have tried to prove the possibility of the involvement of the renin-angiotensin system and/or prostaglandin system in the control mechanism of the acute compensatory renal hyperfunction after contralateral kidney exclusion. There were found different responses of the renal hyperfunction by contralateral renal pedicle or ureteral occlusion. Contralateral renal pedicle or ureteral occlusion caused a sustained increases of the urinary volume, sodium and potassium excretion, while the magnitude of the changes was different quantitatively by the maneuvers. Blood collection affected on the acute compensatory renal responses after ureteral as well as renal pedicle occlusion. Plasma prostaglandin $E_2$ level was not changed by the contralateral renal pedicle or ureteral occlusion. Urinary excretion of Prostaglandin $E_2$, the indices of renal prostaglandin biosynthesis, was not changed by the contralateral renal pedicle occlusion, but increased without significance by the contralateral ureteral occlusion. Acute renal compensatory responses after contralateral renal pedicle occlusion were blocked by the pretreatment of indomethacin. Plasma renin activity increased after contralateral ureteral occlusion, but the pattern of the increases was the same as in the time-control group. Plasma renin activity after contralateral renal pedicle occlusion did not change by the time sequence. SQ 20,881, an angiotensin I converting enzyme inhibitor, blunted the contralateral renal responses after the renal pedicle occlusion. Bilateral renal denervation abolished the contralateral renal responses after the renal pedicle occlusion. The above data suggest that there is no direct evidence to support the involvement of the renin-angiotensin system and/or prostaglandin system for the acute compensatory renal hyperfunction after contralateral kidney exclusion, and that the functional changes of the intact kidney may be caused by a humoral substances, or other mechanisms by afferent renal nerve activity originating from the treated kidney.

  • Recently, the presurgical orthodontic duration tends to be shortened by virtue of the advancement of surgical and orthodontic techniques in class III orthognathic surgery cases. But the predictability of the surgical results should be secured by removing several uncertain factors in presurgical orthodontic treatment. The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of immediate postsurgical occlusal stability on postsurgical mandibular change. The study includes 40 patients who underwent orthognathic surgery to correct skeletal class III malocclusion. The patients were divided into two groups based on the numbers of occlusal contact in surgical setup occlusion: group 1 (stable surgical occlusion, n=24) and group 2(unstable surgical occlusion, n=16). Changes of horizontal and vertical mandibular measurements during postsurgical follow up period(from 1 week postsurgery to 12month after debonding) were compared to examine the differences between two groups. The stability of surgical occlusion is one of the factors influencing postsurgical mandibular changes in class III malocclusion. The various class III malocclusion cases have specific prerequisites for the orthognathic surgery according to the skeletal patterns. The prerequisites should be obtained by minimum presurgical orthodontics to increase the predictability of the surgical results.

  • During operations, neurosurgeons usually perform multiple temporary occlusions of parental artery, possibly resulting in the neuronal damage. It is generally thought that neuronal damage by cerebral ischemia is associated with extracellular concentrations of the excitatory amino acids. In this study, we measured the dynamics of extracellular glutamate release in 11 vessel occlusion(VO) model to compare between single occlusion and repeated transient occlusions within short interval. Changes in cerebral blood flow were monitored by laser-Doppler flowmetry simultaneously with cortical glutamate level measured by amperometric biosensor. From real time monitoring of glutamate release in 11 VO model, the change of extracellular glutamate level in repeated transient occlusion group was smaller than that of single occlusion group, and the onset time of glutamate release in the second ischemic episode of repeated occlusion group was delayed compared to the first ischemic episode which was similar to that of single 10 min ischemic episode. These results suggested that repeated transient occlusion induces less glutamate release from neuronal cell than single occlusion, and the delayed onset time of glutamate release is attributed to endogeneous protective mechanism of ischemic tolerance.
