연구목적: 본 연구의 목적은 하악골 충격 시 구강보호장치의 재료적 성질에 따른 악골과 두부에 미치는 영향을 조사하는 것이다. 연구재료 및 방법: 경질과 연질의 서로 다른 성질을 가지는 구강보호장치를 두부외상이나 뇌질환 병력이 없고 정상교합과 자연치열을 가진 한국 성인 여성에게 제작하고, CT를 이용하여 악골과 두부의 3차원 유한요소모델을 제작하였다. 이 유한요소모델은 두개골, 뇌, 상악골, 하악골, 관절원판, 치아와 구강보호장치를 포함하며 407,825개의 elements와 82,138개의 node로 구성되어 있다. 0.1초동안 하악골 3부위에서 800 N으로 사선 방향의 힘을 가하였을 때 두 가지 재료에 따른 상악 치아, 상악골 및 두개골의 응력분포를 평가하였고 동일한 조건하에서 두 재료에 따른 뇌의 변위량을 비교하였다. 결과: 이 연구를 통해 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 상악치아에서 유효응력 값을 비교하였을 때 연질의 구강보호장치가 경질의 구강보호 장치보다 응력값이 유의차 있게 작게 나타났다 (P < .05). 2. 상악골과 두개골에서 응력값을 비교하였을 때 연질의 구강보호장치가 경질의 구강보호장치보다 응력값이 유의차 있게 작게 나타났다 (P < .05). 3. 경질의 구강보호장치에서 연질의 구강보호장치보다 상악치아 및 상악골과 두개골에 더 많은 응력집중부위를 보였다. 4. 경질의 구강보호장치와 연질의 구강보호장치 간에 하악 충격 시 뇌의 변위량은 연질의 구강보호장치 쪽이 크게 나타났으나 유의차는 없었다. 본 연구를 통하여 악골 충격 시에 경질 및 연질 구강보호장치가 상악골과 두개골에서의 응력분포에 미치는 양상을 알 수 있었지만, 아직도 이의 상관관계를 모두 파악하기에는 불충분한 점이 많으리라 생각되며, 스포츠 외상에 따른 구강보호장치의 재료에 따른 상관관계에 대하여 보다 더 많은 연구가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

Tongue cancer는 혀에 생기는 악성종양으로 전체 암의 1.8%, oral cancer의 75%를 차지할 정도로 발생 빈도가 높은 것으로 알려져 있으며 초기 진단, 전이유무, 병기설정 등을 위해 PET/CT 검사를 실시하고 있다. Tongue cancer 환자의 PET/CT 검사 시 close mouth 상태로 Torso를 촬영하고 있으며 그에 따른 겹침이나 인공물의 영향으로 병소부위가 명확히 관찰되지 않는 경우가 발생되었다. 이에 open mouth로 PET/CT 검사 시 발생되는 변화와 그에 따른 유용성을 알아 보고자 한다. 20명의 환자(남 15명, 여 5명)를 대상으로 시행하였으며 먼저 close mouth 상태로 Torso 촬영 후 open mouth 상태로 1bed 추가 촬영하였다. Tumor(T), Normal Tongue(NT), Lymph Node(LN)에 관심영역을 설정하여 표준화섭취계수(standardized uptake value, SUV) $SUV_{mean}$, $SUV_{max}$를 측정하여 Background(Carotid artery) SUV를 빼주었다. Tumor size 변화를 측정하였으며 육안적 영상 해상도 평가는 blind test를 진행하였다. 비모수검정(wilcoxon signed rank test)을 통해 통계 분석하였다. Tumor에서 SUV는 open mouth 검사 시 증가하는 변화를 보였으며, normal tongue과 lymph node에서는 소폭의 변화가 있었으나 유의한 차이는 없었다. tumor size 변화와 blind test를 통해 전체적으로 비슷하거나 높은 영상 해상도를 보여주는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. Open mouth PET/CT 검사가 close mouth시 발생하는 문제점에 대한 완벽한 대안법이 될 수는 없지만 open mouth를 통해 구강 내 다른 구조물과의 겹침이나 tumor의 경계면을 조금 더 명확하게 관찰할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Objectives : This study was designed to investigate the clinical characteristics and usefulness of comprehensive diagnosis of Yin-deficiency and heart rate variability in patients with burning mouth syndrome (BMS). Methods : We surveyed 30 burning mouth syndrome patients visiting the Oral Diseases Clinic of Kyung Hee University Oriental Medicine Hospital from April to September of 2011. The subjects were evaluated on self-assessed severity of burning mouth syndrome and xerostomia using visual analogue scale (VAS) score and Yin-deficiency condition (based on the 10-item Yin-deficiency questionnaire). Salivary function was measured by the unstimulated salivary flow rate (USFR), and heart rate variability (HRV) parameters were recorded by SA-2000E (Medicore Co., Ltd., Korea). Results : There were substantial significant positive correlations between burning sensation VAS scores in mouth and Yin-deficiency scores. There was significant negative correlation between xerostomia VAS score and USFR. Compared to the normal range of total power (TP) in HRV parameters, the burning mouth syndrome patients showed significant lower values of TP. Conclusions : The results of this study suggest that comprehensive diagnosis of Yin-deficiecny and HRV parameters are useful in diagnosing of burning mouth syndrome patients. Therefore, we assume that improvement of Yin-deficiency condition can be a potentially effective way to treat burning mouth syndrome.

The study investigated how 'word of mouth' originates in the chain restaurant industry. It has long been acknowledged that 'word of mouth' is a critical factor for the success of a restaurant business due to its targetability and cost effectiveness. A review of the literature revealed four antecedents of 'word of mouth': service quality, perceived value, satisfaction, and relationship quality. Based on the theoretical/empirical relationships between those constructs, a structural model composed of the hypotheses was proposed. The structural model was tested with data collected from 471 chain restaurant patrons. The structural equation modeling analysis revealed that five constructs in the proposed model are interrelated, and during this process, word of mouth is formed in the chain restaurant industry. A positive relationship between service quality and satisfaction (0.265, p<0.05), service quality and perceived value (0.831, p<0.05), service quality and relationship quality (0.465, p< 0.05), and service quality and WOM (0.263, p< 0.05) were found, indicating that service quality is a key prerequisite for word of mouth and other constructs proposed in the model. It was revealed that perceived value doe not have a direct impact on WOM formation (t=1.275, p=0.202), but a positive relationship between perceived value and satisfaction (0.293, p<0.05) and between satisfaction and WOM (0.627, p< 0.05) were found. Therefore, it was concluded that patrons' perceived value influences word of mouth formation, but that impact is mediated by satisfaction. During this process, relationship quality also plays a mediating role in generating word of mouth. Based on data analysis, theoretical/managerial implications are discussed.

Objectives: The purpose of the study was to examine the influencing factors of self-reported dry mouth in the employees in social welfare facilities. Methods: A self-reported questionnaire was completed by 260 employees in social welfare facilities from January 5 to 30, 2015 by convenience sampling method. Except 25 incomplete answers, 215 data were analyzed by t test, one way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient analysis, and multiple linear regression analysis using SPSS 180. program. The questionnaire consisted of general characteristics of the subjects, health-related characteristics, whole body dryness and self-reported dry mouth. The oral health-related quality of life was measured by five point Likert scale, and a higher score indicated a lower quality of life. Results: The self-reported dry mouth in the employees in the social welfare facilities varied by the general health status, stress, oral health status and oral malodor. The self-reported dry mouth was closely related to the quality of life and the four subfactors including dryness of skin, eye, lip and nasal mucosa. The quality of life had the influence on the self-reported dry mouth, nasal mucosa dryness, eye dryness, and oral malodor in order. Conclusions: The self-reported dry mouth was closely related to whole body dryness and the quality of life. It is necessary to develop the quality of life improvement programs that prevent and manage the dry mouth and whole body dryness in the employees in the social welfare facilities.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the influencing factors on oral and maxillofacial trauma prevention education experience of students majoring in physical education. Methods: A self-reported questionnaire was filled out by 268 students majoring in physical education in Busan. All statistical analyses were performed using SPSS 21.0. The questionnaire consisted of general characteristics(4 questions), TMJ symptoms(9 questions), oral habit(8 questions), and mouth guard awareness(5 questions). The questionnaire was carried out by 5 Likert scale. Higher points of Likert scale showed the negative tendency except the mouth guard awareness. The higher points of mouth guard awareness showed the positive tendency to use the mouth guard. Results: Male students had higher scores of 2.75 points in bad oral habit than the female students(p<0.05). Female students higher score of 1.30 points in mouth guard awareness than male students(p<0.05). TMJ symptoms experience in oral and maxillofacial trauma was 3.15 points which was higher than the prevention education experience without maxillofacial trauma(p<0.001). TMJ symptoms and Mouth guard awareness showed 2.71(p<0.01) and 1.20 points(p<0.001) respectively in students with maxillofacial trauma prevention education experience. These score were higher than those without education experience of trauma prevention education experience. The influencing factors on trauma prevention education experience are mouth guard awareness(p<0.001), oral habits(p<0.01), and temporomandibular joint symptom(p<0.01). Conclusions: The necessity of mouth guards should be emphasized to prevent the serious oral trauma. It is very important to establish the rule for mouth guard use in sports activities. Therefore, oral and maxillofacial trauma prevention education program is needed.

This study examined the risk perception in internet shopping by Chinese and analyzed the effects of risk perception on internet word-of-mouth acceptance and transmission. This analysis was conducted with data collected from 373 Chinese individuals in their 20s. Data were analyzed with factorial analysis, cluster analysis, ANOVA, multiple regression analysis, Chi-square test, and Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ using SPSS 18.0. The results were: 1) The factor analysis of risk perception extracted four factors: fashion/social psychological risk, product risk, transaction risk, and economic risk. The cluster analysis classified them into: Group with low-risk, Group with high-risk, Group with economic risk, and Group with medium-risk. 2) Group with high-risk and Group with economic risk had a higher word-of-mouth acceptance than other groups. The Group with a high-risk had more word-of-mouth transmission than other groups. 3) It was found that when word-of-mouth was accepted, the factual information about fashion products (size and material) was most referred to, and that the overall evaluation of satisfaction and dissatisfaction was most conveyed when word-of-mouth was conveyed. 4) Internet word-of-mouth acceptance was affected by product risk, economic risk, and transaction risk. Internet word-of-mouth transmission was affected by economic risk, and fashion/social psychological risk, product risk, and transaction risk.

Respiration is one of the most important functions which are carried out in stomatognathic system. When nasal orifice is obstructed or the resistance of upper airway is increased mouth breathing is initiated. Mouth breathing is regarded as an important etiologic factor of dentofacial anomalies. This experiment was performed to observe the influences of metabolic acidosis, tracheal resistance and vagotomy on mouth breathing. After rabbits were anesthetized with sodium pentobarbital, a pair of wire electrode was inserted into mylohyoid muscle, anterior belly of digastric muscle and dilator naris muscle to record EMG activity. Femoral vein and artery were cannulated for infusion of 0.3N HCl and collection of blood sample to determine the blood pH, and tracheal intubation was done to control airway resistance. Mouth breathing was induced by metabolic acidosis. Increase of the airway resistance through tracheal cannula intensified the activity of dilator naris, mylohyoid and digastric muscle. The higher the resistance, the larger the EMG amplitude. After bilateral vagotomy, respiratory volume and inspiatory time were increased and the activities of dilator naris, mylohyoid and digastric muscle were strengthened. It was concluded that the muscle activity related to mouth breathing was induced by metabolic acidosis and increase of tracheal tube resistance.
