Diabetes mellitus is a systemic disease with profound effects on oral health and periodontal wound healing. Uncontrolled diabetes adversely affects surgical wound healing and is often associated with abnormal proliferation of fibroblasts. Human gingival fibroblasts and PDL cells were chosen because they are intimately involved in periodontal therapy and are important for the success of surgical procedure such as guided tissue regeneration. The aim of the present study was to elucidate whether cellular activity and collagen synthesis by glucose pre-treated human gingival fibroblasts and PDL cells are influenced by insulin, and whether healthy cells differ from glucose treated cells. Cells were cultured with DMEM at $37^{\circ}C$, 5% $CO_2$, 100% humidified incubator. To evaluate the effect of glucose on gingival fibroblasts and periodontal ligament cells, the cells were seeded at a cell density of $1{\times}10^4\;cells/well$ culture plates and treated with 20 and 50mM of glucose for 5 days. Then MTT assay was carried out. To evaluate the effect of insulin on glucose-pretreated cells, the cells were seeded at a cell density of $1{\times}10^4\;cells/well$ culture plates and treated with 20 and 50mM of glucose for 5 days. After incubation, $10^3$, $10^4$ and $10^5mU/l$ of insulin were also added to the each well and incubated for 2 days, respectively. Then, MTT assay and collagen synthesis assay were carried out. The results indicate that cellular activity of gingival fibroblasts significantly increased by glucose while periodontal ligament cells were unaffected and cellular activity of gingival fibroblasts and periodontal ligament cells were unaffected by insulin. Collagen synthesis of gingival fibroblast with 20mM glucose and insulin unaffected, but 50mM glucose and insulin increased than control. Collagen synthesis of periodontal ligament cell with 20mM glucose and $10^5mU/l$ insulin significantly increased than other groups and 50mM glucose pretreated PDL cells significantly increased at $10^3mU/l$ insulin but decreased at $10^4mU/l$ insulin. Our findings indicated that these cell types differed in their growth response to glucose, and the increase in collagen synthesis was significantly raised at insulin level of $10^3mU/l$ in gingival fibroblasts and periodontal ligament cells except 20mM glucose pretreated periodontal ligament cells.

The authors have transplanted periodontally involved roots which had been root planed into healthy and periodontally involved extraction sockets, and studied the root resorption patterns as well as its effect on new bone formation and wound healing. Alveolar bone around mandibular premolars of 6 adult dogs has been surgically removed, followed by ligation of orthodontic elastic wires for 8 weeks inducing chronic periodontal disease. After removing the crown portions, roots were extracted, and notches were made on the root surfaces discriminating healthy and periodontally involved areas using burs. Controls and experimental groups were divided as follows. Control I : Transplantation of periodontally involved root into healthy extraction sockets. Control II : Transplantation of periodontally involved root into diseased extraction sockets. Experimental group I : Transplantation of root planed roots into healthy extraction sockets. Experimental group II : Transplantation of root planed roots into diseased extraction sockets. Extraction sockets were sutured after transplantations, completely submerging the roots. Healing progress was histologically observed at 2nd, 8th, 12th, and 20th weeks, and the results were as follows ; 1. No inflammation or infection within the extraction sockets had been observed in all groups throughout the experimental period. 2. Reversal lines were observed at week 2 in all groups, clearly discriminating socket walls and new bone, and numerous blood vessels were observed in the new bone trabeculae. 3. Experimental groups showed markedly less root resorption compared to the controls at week 2, but as time progressed, severe resorptions were present in all groups. 4. Localized areas of new bone ankylosis were observed, and the rest of the areas showed collagen fiber insertion with new bone formation at its periphery. 5. No clear differences were found in healing and alveolar bone regeneration between healthy and diseased extraction sockets. 6. The amount of root resorption and ankylosis had increased up to week 8 and 12, showing ankylosis of new bone and the roots. However, no further increase in ankylosis was observed at week 20. 7. Most of the cementum on healthy roots was directly ankylosed to new bone at week, 2, and were gradually resorbed and replaced by new bone thereafter. These results appear to indicate that root planing may inhibit early root resorption of transplanted roots, but gradual replacement by alveolar bone and collagen fibers eventually occur. Condition of the roots or presence of disease in extraction sockets do not appear to make marked differences in alveolar bone regeneration process.

Purpose: Periodontal intrabony defects have great deal of importance since they contribute to the development of periodontal disease. Current treatment regimens for intrabony defects involve grafting of numerous bony materials, GTR using biocompatible barriers, and biomodification of root surface that will encourage the attachment of connective tissue. Xenograft using deproteinized bovine bone particles seems to be very convenient to adjust because it doesn't require any donor sites or imply the danger of cross infections. These particles are similar to human cancellous bone in structure and turned out to be effective in bone regeneration in vivo. We here represent the effectiveness of grafting deproteinized bovine bone particles in intrabony defect and furcation involvements that have various numbers of bony walls. Materials and methods: Open flap debridement was done to remove all root accretions and granulation tissue from the defects within persisting intrabony lesions demonstrating attachment loss of over 6mm even 3 months after nonsurgical periodontal therapy have been completed. Deproteinized bovine bone particles($BBP^{(R)}$, Oscotec, Seoul) was grafted in intrabony defects to encourage bone regeneration. Patients were instructed of mouthrinses with chlorohexidine-digluconate twice a day and to take antibiotics 2-3 times a day for 2 weeks. They were check-up regularly for oral hygiene performance and further development of disease. Probing depth, level of attachment and mobility were measured at baseline and 6 months after the surgery. The radiographic evidence of bone regenerations were also monitored at least for 6 months. Conclusion: In most cases, radio-opacities increased after 6 months. 2- and 3-wall defects showed greater improvements in pocket depth reduction when compared to 1-wall defects. Class I & II furcation involvements in mandibular molars demonstrated the similar results with acceptable pocket depth both horizontally and vertically comparable to other intrabony defects. Exact amount of bone gain could not be measured as the re-entry procedure has not been available. With in the limited data based on our clinical parameter to measure pocket depth reduction following $BBP^{(R)}$ grafts, it was comparable to the results observed following other regeneration techniques such as GTR.

Purpose: Various kinds of biodegradable membranes are currently used in dental clinics. And the frequency and the necessity of their usage are increasing due to their numerous advantages. Therefore it is important to understand the difference of various membranes and histological reaction against implanted membranes. Materials and Methods: Biodegradable membranes of $Biogide^{(R)}$, $Resolute^{(R)}$, and $Tutodent^{(R)}$ were cut into small pieces by $1.0{\times}0.5cm$. The membranes were implanted 1.5cm apart from each other under the epithelium on the skull of 18 Sprague Dawley rats. The animals were sacrificed at 3, 7, and 14 days after surgical procedure. The specimens were examined by histological analysis. Results: 1. Early period after implantation of the membranes showed connective tissues surrounding membranes and there were a few inflammatory cells present. 2. In $Biogide^{(R)}$ and $Tutodent^{(R)}$ specimens, inflammatory cells and surrounding tissues were shown to infiltrate from outside with slight density difference inside. In $Resolute^{(R)}$ specimens, membranes were fragmented. Inflammatory cells and connective tissues were also observed inside. 3. In $Resolute^{(R)}$ specimen, giant cells were present which implicates that foreign body reaction has occurred. 4. $Biogide^{(R)}$ had lower integrity than other membranes and is not enough to be used alone in defect area. However, $Resolute^{(R)}$ had superior firmness than others. $Tutodent^{(R)}$ had middle level of integrity. Conclusion: This experimental model enabled to observe early inflammatory reactions and morphological changes of materials and can be used to develop and evaluate the efficacy of biodegradable membranes. Duplication of standardized human oral environment will be required in future experiments.

The dissolution test method and an analytical procedure by HPLC were developed and validated for viquidil hydrochloride capsules and alibendol tablets. These drugs were not yet characterized by the dissolution specifications in Korean Pharmaceutical Codex. So, with each reference and test drugs, we did the preliminary and standard experiments based on the Korean Pharmacopeia Guideline of dissolution testing for solid oral dosage forms. The dissolution test for viquidil hydrochloride capsules was carried out under sink conditions as follows: dissolution medium water, paddle rotation speed 50 rpm and vessel volume 900 ml. More than 90% of its label amount was released within 30 min in this method. Also the dissolution test for alibendol tablets was carried out under sink conditions as follows: dissolution medium water, paddle rotation speed 100 rpm and vessel volume 900 ml. More than 90% of its label amount was released within 45 min in this method. The dissolution samples were analyzed with a precise and accurate HPLC method. The developed dissolution test showed specificity, linearity, precision and accuracy within the acceptable range. The dissolution testing method described above was adequate for the purpose and may be proposed as a pharmacopeial standard to assess the performance of viquidil hydrochloride capsules and alibendol tablets.

Cimetidine is a histamine $H_2-receptor$ antagonist, used for the treatment of endoscopically or radiographically comfirmed duodenal ulcer, pathologic GI hypersecretory conditions, and active, benign and gastric ulcer. Simple method for determining cimetidine in human plasma has been developed and validated. The analytical procedure for cimetidine showed a linear relationship in the concentration ranges from $0.05\;to\;5\;{\mu}g/ml$. Coefficient of variance (CV, %) for intraday and interday validation and relative error (RE, %) were less than ${\pm}15%$. Based on this analytical method, the bioequivalence of two cimetidine 400 mg tablets, reference (Tagamet 400 mg) and test drug (Sinil CIMETIDINE 400 mg) was evaluated according to the guidelines set by the Korea Food and Drug Administration (KFDA). Release of cimetidine from the tablets in vitro was tested using KP VIII Apparatus II with various dissolution media (pH 1.2, 4.0, 6.8 buffer solutions and water). Twenty-four healthy volunteers, $21.38{\pm}1.86$ years in age and $68.71{\pm}8.68\;kg$ in body weight, were divided into two groups and a randomized $2{\times}2$ cross-over study was performed. After oral administration of a tablet containing 400 mg of cimetidine, blood samples were taken at predetermined time intervals and concentrations of cimetidine in plasma were determined using HPLC equipped with UV detector. The dissolution profiles of the two tablet formulations were very similar at all dissolution media. In addition, pharmacokinetic parameters such as $AUC_t$ and $C_{max}$ were calculated and ANOVA was employed for the statistical analysis of parameters. The results were revealed that the differences in $AUC_t$ and $C_{max}$ between the two tablets were 4.17 % and 0.97% respectively. At 90% confidence intervals, the differences in these parameters were also within ${\pm}20%$. All of the above mentioned parameters have met the criteria of KFDA guidelines for bioequivalence, indicating that the test drug tablet (Sinil CIMETIDINE tablet) is bioequivalent to Tagamet 400 mg tablet.

본 연구는 Quick Ceph Image $Pro^{TM}$(ver 3.0)와 국내에서 개발되어 사용 중인 $V-Ceph^{TM}$(ver 3.5) 2 종의 비디오 이미지 예측 프로그램의 수술 후 연조직 측모의 정확성과 신뢰성에 대해서 알아보고자 시행되었다. 골격성 III급 부정교합으로 진단되어 수술 전 교정 치료를 받고. 하악골 후퇴 수술(body osteotomy 또는 SSRO)을 시행한 남녀 환자 각각 20명을 대상으로 하였다. 나이는 평균 $21.4\pm4$세이고, 수술 전 측모두부방사선계측사진은 수술 전 평균 21.1일에 수술 후 측모두부방사선계측사진은 수술 후 평균 335.7일에 촬영되었으며, 예측치와 실측치 차이를 비교하였다. 연구결과 Quick Ceph과 V-Ceph 모두 예측치와 실측치 사이에 크기와 방향에 있어서 오차가 관찰되었으며, 이러한 오차는 상순과 하순. 턱과 연관된 항목에서 크게 나타났다 (p<0.05). Quick Ceph은 A'. Ls, Li의 수평적 위치 및 각 부분에서의 연조직 두께(U1-Ls, L1-Li, Pog-Pog')의 수평거리 예측에서, V-Ceph은 하순의 수직적 위치 예측에서 오차가 컸다 (p<0.05) V-Ceph의 경우 하악골의 이동양이 증가할때 Sn의 수직적 위치, Ls의 수평적 위치 상순의 연조직 두께 (U1 -Ls)처럼 상순과 연관된 계측치에서 예측오차가 컸으며, Quick Ceph의 경우 하악골의 이동양이 증가할 때 하순의 수평위치 및 하순의 두께에서의 예측오차가 작았다 (P<0,05) 또한, 연조직의 두께에 따른 오차를 평가한 결과, Quick Ceph의 경우 상순과 하순의 두께가 두꺼울수록 각각에 관련된 연조직 예측의 오차가 컸으며 (P<0.05). V-Ceph의 경우 하순과 턱의 연조직 두께가 두꺼울수록 턱의 연조직 예측의 오차가 크게 관찰되었다 (p<0.05). 그러나 본 연구에서의 모든 예측오차 값은 3mm 이내로 계측되었으며, 이러한 오차 범주는 임상적으로 허용 가능한 수준인 것으로 생각된다.

본 실험에서는 치주질환 발병에 위험인자이고 창상치유에 위해한 영향을 미치는 흡연이 치주조직에 미치는 반응을 규명하기 위해 치은 섬유아세포의 중요한 기능인 교원질 합성과 분비된 단백질 분해에 영향을 주는 효소활성도를 중심으로 Nicotine과 NNK가 이 세포에 미치는 영향을 관찰하고 또한Nicotine이 NNK로 대사되어 작용을 나타내는 것인지, Nicotine과 NNK가 서로 다른 경로를 통하여 치은 섬유아 세포에 영향을 주는지를 규명하고자 이들 화합물의 돌연변이성 실험, 세포 증식을 보기위한 MTT test와 교원질과 collagenase의 mRNA 수준 및 교원질 분해 효소의 효소활성들을 실험하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. Nicotine은 대사 활성계의 존재 여부와 상관없이 돌연변이성을 나타내지 않았고 NNK 의 경우에는 그 자체로는 돌연변이성이 없었으나, 대사활성계가 존재하는 경우에 농도의존적으로 돌연변이성을 나타내었다. 2. 증식능 실험에서 흡연자의 세포증식능은 비흡연자에 비해 감소되었다. 3. 비흡연자의 치은 섬유아세포에 Nicotine 과 NNK를 처리한 경우에 대조군에 비해농도 의존적으로 세포 증식능이 감소되었으며, 고농도에서 Nicotine의 경우 세포 독성을 나타내었으나, NNK는 세포독성을 나타내지 않았다. 4. 교원질 분자의 mRNA 수준에 대한 Nicotine의 효과는 proa1과 pro ${\alpha}2$ 모두에 영향을 주지 않았고, NNK는 pro ${\alpha}1$의 경우에는 감소하였으나, proa2에는 영향을 주지 않았다. 5. Collagenase의 mRNA 수준에 대한 효과에서 Nicotine은 없었으나 NNK는 감소하였다. 6. 교원질 분해 효소에 대한 Nicotine과 NNK의 효과는 I형 교원질의 분해 효소를 알기 위한 collagenase 효소 활성의 경우에는 효과가 모두 증가되었으나, IV형 교원질의 분해 효소인 gelatinase 효소 활성에는 영향을 주지 않았다. 또한 흡연자의 collagenase 효소활성은 비흡연자의 치은 섬유아세포에 Nicotine이나 NNK를 처리한 경우와 비슷한 수준으로 증가되었다. 이상의 결과로 보아 Nicotine과 NNK는 모두 치은 섬유아세포에 영향을 주어 교원질의 양을 감소시키며, 그 기전은 서로 다른 경로를 통하여 일어나는 것으로 사료된다.

본 증례는 구순구개열 환자에서 상순의 반흔, 상악 잔존치조제의 과도한 흡수, 협소한 구개 및 상악골의 열성장을 동반한 3급 악간관계로 인해 통상의 가철성 국소의치 수복에 한계를 보이기 때문에 상악 무치악 부위에 4개의 임플란트를 식립 후, CAD/CAM 시스템으로 밀링한 titanium bar를 이용한 상악 가철성 임플란트 피개 국소의치를 계획하였다. 통상의 주조방법은 주조 후 수축을 하게 되지만 CAD/CAM 시스템으로 밀링한 titanium bar는 높은 정밀성과 경제성 그리고 가벼운 장점이 있다. 하지만 실제 임상에서 milled bar는 아주 균등하고 정확한 마찰결합을 얻기 힘들며 의치의 반복적인 착탈에 의해 마찰 유지력이 감소 할 수 있다. 이에 milled bar와 함께 사용할 수 있는 다양한 보조 유지장치(e.g. friction pin, $ERA^{(R)}$, $CEKA^{(R)}$, magnetics, $Locator^{(R)}$ 등)를 같이 사용함으로써 부가적인 유지력, 경제성 및 교체의 용이성 등을 추가적으로 얻을 수 있다. 본 증례에서 milled titanium bar의 상부면에 drill and tapping 방법으로 $Locator^{(R)}$ 유지장치를 연결하였다. milled bar에 screw hole을 형성하고 3개의 $Locator^{(R)}$ 유지장치를 20 Ncm으로 체결하여 추가적인 유지력을 확보하였다. 보철수복 후, 환자가 원하는 심미적인 안모, 저작 기능 및 의치 유지에 만족할 만한 결과를 얻었기에 이를 보고하고자 한다.

목적: 최근 위 질환에서 복강경 사용이 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 그러나, 조기위암의 경우 그 적응증과 표준 술식에 대해서는 논란이 있어 왔다. 본 연구의 목적은 handassisted laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (HALDG), laparos-copy-assisted distal gastrectomy (LADG), 그리고 개복하 원위 위 절제술간의 임상적 결과의 비교를 통해 조기 위암에서 복강경 술기의 유용성을 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2001년 8월부터 2004년 7월까지 본원에서 조기위암으로 진단받아 HALDG (=18)와 LADG (=7)를 시행한 25명의 환자들을 대상으로 하였으며, 같은 시기에 개복하 원위 위 절제술을 시행한 40명의 환자와 수술시간, 재원 기간, 식이 시작 시기, 절제된 림프절 수 등의 임상적 결과를 비교 분석하였다. 또한 수술 시기에 따라 HALDG와 LADG을 각각 전기와 후기로 분류하여 임상적 결과를 비교하였다. 결과: 복강경 군과 개복술 군 간의 절제된 림프절 수에는 차이가 없었으며, 수술 시간은 복강경 군에서 유의하게 길었다(P<0.05). 또한, 그 외 임상적 결과들에서도 두 군 간에 차이가 없었다. 전기와 후기의 비교에서 후기의 HALDG 군에서 비록 수술 시간의 증가는 있었으나 절제된 림프절 수는 $22.31\pm4.29$에서 $29.40\pm3.21$로 후기에서 유의하게 증가하였다(P<0.05). 결론: 복강경하 위절제술의 경험을 통해 D1+$\beta$ 이상의 림프절 절제가 가능하였고 술식의 안정성 등 조기위암에서도 복강경 술식이 적용될 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 하지만, 술식의 표준화가 필요하며, 대규모 전향적 연구를 통해 복강경 술식에서도 개복술에서 보인 종양학적 근치성이 입증되어야 할 것이다.
