Background: There is minimal literature on the morphology of partial distal biceps tendon (DBT) tears. We sought to investigate tear morphology by retrospectively reviewing 3-Tesla magnetic resonance imaging (3T MRI) scans of elbows with partial DBT tears and to propose a basic classification system. Methods: 3T MRI scans of elbows with partial DBT tears were retrospectively reviewed by two experienced observers. Basic demographic data were collected. Tear morphology was recorded including type, presence of retraction (>5 mm), and presence of discrete long-head and short-head tendons at the DBT insertion. Results: For analysis, 44 3T MRI scans of 44 elbows with partial DBT tears were included. There were 9 isolated long-head tears (20%), 13 isolated short-head tears (30%), 2 complete long-head tears with a partial short-head tear (5%), 5 complete short-head tears with a partial long-head tear (11%), and 15 peel-off tears (34%). Retraction was seen in 5 or 44 partial tears (11%), and 13 of the 44 DBTs were bifid tendons at the insertion (30%). Conclusions: Partial DBT tears can be classified into five sub-types: long-head isolated tears, short-head isolated tears, complete long-head tears with partial short-head involvement, complete short-head tears with partial long-head involvement, and peel-off tears. Classification of tears may have implications for operative and non-operative management. Level of evidence: III.

Pilomatricoma is a benign neoplasm of the hair follicle origin which most common occur in the head and neck, particularly in the cheek and preauricular region. This neoplasm is superficially located and stony, hard consistency on palpation and sometimes shows reddish or bluish discoloration on the overlying skin. The diagnosis is confirmed by histopathologic examination. Radiologic evaluation is little diagnostic and fine needle aspiration biopsy often misdiagnose because both tissues from basaloid cell component and shadow cell component should be obtained for correct diagnosis. And Otolaryngologist should consider the possibility of philomatricoma when childhood or early adulthood persion visits with hard, supferficial mass on the parotid or cheek area. The treatment of choice is surgical excision with clear resection margin. In many instances, overlying skin excision is needed. We report 4 cases of philomatricoma arising from preauricular, cheek and posterior neck.

The ability to customize garments for fit in the apparel industry is directly tied to the availability of comprehensive and accurate sets of anthropometrical data for each consumer. The data for apparel sizing systems is available from three major standard/ research organizations: ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials), ISO (International Standard Organization), and NCHS (National Center for Health Statistics). However, these standards ignore various head shapes and are outdated for the development future head products. This creates a data gap an ever changing multi-cultural society such as the United Sates. Although major government and industry safety organizations recognize the importance of safety for head products, few studies were found to support their reasoning. The purpose of this study is to provide accurate head dimension data for developing safety head products by analyzing various head shapes in the United Sates which includes various ethnic backgrounds. This study was carried out on 105 males in the United States. Factor analysis, cluster analysis, Moreover, Duncan analysis were all used for analyzing various head shapes.

The purpose of the study was to provide scientific and accurate data of head shape for men. This study was carried out on 214 men and Factor analysis, Cluster analysis, Duncan analysis with 15 variables were performed using the data. A 3D scanner was used for visual results of head shape. The results were as follows. First, through factor analysis of the variables, three factors were extracted upon factor scores. The first factor described thickness part, and second factor described width parts and the third factor described vertical length parts. Four clusters represented characteristics of men's head types. Type 1 had a larger head thickness, type 2 had a smaller thickness and smaller width. type 4 had a generally larger head. In the distribution of the four clusters, type 1 was distributed 34%. Type 4 was distributed 23%. According to the results, type 1 of the more thick and narrow head was dominant among head types of men.

This study was aimed to provide the fundamental and various measurement data of the head and face for Korean children. Two hundred sixty nine female children, aged nine to twelve years, participated for this study. The 28 regions on the head and face of the subjects were directly measured by the expert experimenters. Factor analysis, cluster analysis, GLM analysis and Tukey HSD test were performed' using these data. Through factor analysis, six factors were extracted upon factor scores and those factors comprised 71.42% for the total variances. Four clusters as their head and face shape were categorized using six factor scores by cluster analysis. Type 1 was characterized by the shorter head & face length and width and the lowest position from forehead to nose. Type 2 had the longer head & face length and width and the highest ear position and the largest mouse width. Type 3 was characterized by the longest and head & face type and the widest head & face girth. Type 4 was characterized by shortest head & face length the lower ear and lips position.

The research aimed to provide accurate and basic data comparing different perceptions of head family's food and food for religious ceremonies depending on age with the goal of sustaining traditional Korean food in the future. The gender distribution of the participants was 274 Males (42.5%) and 370 Females (57.5%). Age distribution was 211 participants (32.7%) in their 20s, 215 participants (33.3%) in their 30 to 40s, and 220 participants (34%) in their 50 to 60s. The older generation appeared to beaware of the definition of head family or 'The eldest's house of head family' as well as the concept of one's family five generations ago with more reductive and emphasis than imaginary concept of head family of the younger generation. The image of the head family was perceived as 'head family's food' in younger generations and as 'eldest son' in older generations. Family role and meaning most often manifested as 'succession of tradition' and 'cultural symbols' in younger generations, respectively, whereas older generations responded 'hallmark of the head family'. Family ancestral rites and head family's food had positive effects on awareness of head family's food. Moreover, those with experience in practicing family ancestral rites responded that head family's food should be more popular. People who viewed family's food more positively were more open with the idea thathead family's food could go mainstream. In conclusion, positive perception of head family's food and traditional pride are crucial environmental factors in public support of popularizing head family's food to the public.

The effect of temperature on the structure change of the SH of myosin head have been investigated with improved resolution by x-ray diffraction using synchrotron radiation. The movement of myosin head and conformational change of contractile molecules were occurred in the muscle contraction. IASL (iodo acetamide) and MSL (maleimide) disordered the orderly helix arrangement of myosin in the rest state of spin level. The temperature effect on the structure change was great at the UL in the equatorial reflection. But those of IASL and MSL were minor. Equatorial reflection (10, 11) change inferred that myosin head was moved to the vicinity of actin filament by temperature change (from $25^{\circ}C$ to $0^{\circ}C$) at UL, but spin level was not changed. The intensity change of 143 $\AA$ and 72 $\AA$ could offer information of the mass profection of population of myosin heads along the filament axis. The slope of intensity profile of the mass profection of 143$\AA$ and reflection of MSL is appeared sharply and those of UL and IASL were not changed. The decrease of MSL actin reflection at 51 $\AA$ and 59 $\AA$ in the actin reflection change refers that the shifted myosin head binds a certain actin or changes an actin structure. From these results, we could conclude that IASL and MSL were spin labeled on SH of myosin head and disordered the helix arrangement of actin.

Purpose : Forward head posture is typical neck disorders occur in all people. And this attitude causes a shortening and weakening of the muscles in the body. It also causes excessive extension acts as a reward. This attitude has to change if the pain occurs around the neck and shoulders, and are subjected to unusual stress. Patients with chronic neck pain associated with forward head posture was found to be the more severe the fall of the respiratory, forward head posture poor quality of much breath. The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of changes in forward head posture and neutral head posture on respiratory. Method : Forty volunteers were participated in study and divided into two groups [forward head posture group (n=20) and neutral head posture group (n=20)]. We measured cervical alignment with global postural system to find out a forward head posture. Respiratory function was measured with a SPIROVIT SP-1 equipment and we found out a forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume at one second (FEV1) and FEV1/FVC. A pared t-test was used to determine a statistical significance for the pulmonary function variation and a independent t-test was used to determine a statistical significance in the two groups. Results : In the experimental group, FVC and FEV1 were significantly higher in the artificial neutral head posture than in the forward head posture. In the control group, FVC and FEV1 were significantly higher in the neutral head posture than in the forward head posture. FVC, FEV1, and FEV1/ FVC were significantly higher in the neutral head posture of control group than the artificial neutral head posture of experimental group and higher in the artificial forward head posture of control group than the forward head posture of experimental group. Conclusion : In conclusion, neutral head posture is considered to be an important factor in correct posture and improvement of lung function and continuous study of posture correction program for posture imbalance will be needed.
