한국산 도롱뇽 유생의 다리재생에 미치는 retinoic acid의 효과를 알아보았다. 도롱뇽 유생의 다리를 distal zeugopodium 또는 distal stylopodium 부위에서 절단하고 절단 후 4일째에 복강내 주사방법으로 RA를 처리한 결과 근원위 축상에서 재생된 골격이 복제되어 근위부화한 형태를 나타내었다. RA처리에 따른 골격 재생이 평균 근위 부화정도는 처리량이 증가와 더불어 증가하였으며 또한 절단부위를 달리하였을 경우에도 영향을 받았다. 근원위 축상에서 평균 근위부화정도의 최대치에 근접한 값은 처리량을 150 $\mu$ g/g body wt.로 했을 때 얻어졌으며 이 처리량을 넘어서는 경우에는 재생의 저해 혹은 주변으로부터의 골격복제 현상이 나타났으며 그 빈도 역시 처리량의 증가와 함께 상승하였다. 이러한 실험결과는 RA처리에 의하여 유발되리라고 보여지는 positional value의 변화가 근원위축을 비롯한 3개의 주요 축상에서 점진적으로 일어남을 시사하며, zeugopodium의 복제가 stylopodium의 복제보다 쉽게 일어난다는 사실은 근원위축상에서 세포들의 RA에 대한 민감성이 동이하지 않거나 혹은 positional value의 배열양상이 직선적이 아님을 시사하고 있다.

Background: Management of positional plagiocephaly by wearing a cranial molding helmet has become a matter of growing medical interest. Some research studies reported that starting helmet therapy early (age 5 to 6 months) is important and leads to a significantly better outcome in a shorter treatment time. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effectiveness of cranial remodeling treatment with wearing helmet for older infants (${\geq}18$ months). Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of 27 infants with positional plagiocephaly without synostosis, who were started from 2008 to 2012. Every child underwent a computerized tomography (CT) before starting helmet therapy to exclude synostosis of the cranial sutures and had CT performed once again after satisfactory completion of therapy. Anthropometric measurements were taken on using spreading calipers in every child. The treatment effect was compared using cranial vault asymmetry (CVA) and the cranial vault asymmetry index (CVAI), which were obtained from diagonal measurements before and after therapy. Results: The discrepancy of CVA and CVAI of all the patients significantly decreased after cranial molding helmet treatment in older infants (${\geq}18$ months) 7.6 mm from 15.6 mm to 8 mm and 4.51% from 9.42% to 4.91%. Six patients had confirmed successful outcome, and all subjects were good compliance patients. The treatment lasted an average of 16.4 months, was well tolerated, and had no complication. Additionally, the rate of the successful treatment (final CVA ${\leq}5mm$) significantly decreased when the wearing time per was shorter. Conclusion: This study showed that treatment by cranial remodeling orthosis was effective if the patient could wear the helmet longer and treatment duration was somewhat longer than in younger patients, well tolerated in older infants and had no morbidity. This therapeutic option is available and indicated in these older infants before other cranial remodeling surgery.

There are evidences that occlusal splint therapy is critical to diagnose hidden akeleto-occlusal disharmonies in malocclusion patients and capable of enhancing stability after orthodontic treatment. In addition, evidences have implicated occlusal splint therapy in condylar positional changes during TMJ disorder treatment. In view of these evidences, this study was performed to investigate the effect of occlusal splint therapy on condylar positional changes in malocclusion patients and the possible clinical application of the occlusal splint as an additional orthodontic tool. For this study, 8 Angle's Class I malocclusion patients, who had centric occlusion-centric relation discrepancy within 1.0 mm and had no clinical symptoms of TMJ disorder, were selected as control group. And 22 malocclusion patients who had centric occlusion-centric relation discrepancy over 1.0 mm were selected and subdivided as Class I Malocclusion group, Class II div. 1 malocclusion group, Class II div. 2 malocclusion group, Open bite group, and Mandibular asymmetry group. For each subject the occlusal splint with mutually protected type of occlusal scheme was applied for 3 months. Condylar positions in centric relation and centric occlusion were measured using Panadent articulators and Panadent condylar position indicator (CPI) before and after occlusal splint therapy. On the basis of this study, the following conclusions might be drawn: 1, In control group, Class II div. 2 malocclusion group, and mandibular assymetry group, there were no significant differences in condylar positions before and after occlusal splint therapy. 2. In Class I malocclusion group, condyles were moved $0.27{\pm}0.45mm$ forward (p < 0.05) and $0.98{\pm}0.25mm$ upward (p < 0.01) after occlusal splint therapy. 3. In Class I malocclusion group, condyles were moved $0.24{\pm}0.21mm$ backward (p < 0.05) and $1.01{\pm}0.33mm$ upward (p < 0.01) after occlusal splint therapy. 4. In open bite group, condyles were moved $1.24{\pm}0.30mm$ upward (p < 0.01) after occlusal splint therapy. 5. In both control and experimental groups, there were no significant differences in lateral condylar positions before and after occlusal splint therapy.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of Banhabaeckchulchunm a-tang(BBCT) for Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo(BPPV) Methods : We searched randomized controlled trials(RCTs) which assess the effect of BB CT for BPPV through 8 electronic databases from their inception to July 2021. RevMan 5.4 was used to evaluate the risk of bias. Results : 12 RCTs with 901 subjects were included. The BBCT treatment group had significantly higher total effetive rate(TER) than the western medicine treatment group(P=0.0001), and the Dizziness Handicap Inventory(DHI) score(P=0.003), traditional chinese medicine syndrome(TCM syn.) score(P<0.00001), and Visual analog scale(VAS)(P=0.0006) were significantly lower than the western medicine treatment group. The combined treatment of BBCT and canalith repositioning procedure(CRP) group had significantly higher TER than only CRP treatment group(P=0.02), and there was no significant difference in DHI score(P=0.12). TG(P=0.006) and TC(P=0.04) were significantly lower, and ApoA1 was significantly higher(P=0.0001). There was no significant difference in LDL(P=0.24). Conclusions : These results demonstrate that BBCT could be effective for BPPV especially after CRP. However, because of limits of included studies such as high heterogeneity between the literatures, unclear risk of bias, insufficient reports of adverse events(AEs), a well-designed RCTs with a low risk of bias in more diverse countries are needed in the future.

Purpose: Hyperdontia is a developmental disorder of the oral cavity. Mesiodens refers to the hyperdontia located between the maxillary central incisors. During the surgical procedure, the anesthetic method for pain control should be considered along with factors related to the surgery itself. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of the impacted position of the mesiodens on the selection of sedation method and to suggest incisive foramen as a brief reference. Materials and Methods: This study included 126 patients who were scheduled for extraction of mesiodens. The selection criteria included patients with one palatally impacted inverted mesiodens accessible from the palatal gingival margin, and those with good cooperation potential in order to control for clinical information. Using cone beam computed tomography, vertical, horizontal, and palatal positional factors were measured, and the anesthetic method was determined by two examiners. The patients were grouped into vertical and horizontal groups based on the position of the incisive foramen. Data were statistically analyzed using the Mann-Whitney test, the chi-square test, and logistic regression analysis. Result: All positional factors differed between the outpatient and inpatient anesthetic groups. The vertical minimum distance from the alveolar ridge to the mesiodens (Va) and the minimum distance from the palatal surface to the crown tip of the mesiodens (Tc) were factors affecting the choice of anesthetic method. The distribution of the vertical and horizontal positional groups differed between the outpatient and inpatient anesthetic groups. Conclusion: The incisive foramen can be used as a brief reference to determine the appropriate anesthetic method. Referral for inpatient anesthesia may be a priority if they are in the V₂H₂ group with Va ≥5 mm, and Tc ≥6 mm, and outpatient sedation may be considered if they are in the V₁H₁ group with Va ≤1.5 mm, and Tc ≤2.5 mm.

The aim of this paper is to describe the prosodic structure of Korean related to the syllable duration varying with its positional difference. An attempt is made in this study to analyze and describe the concrete correlation between the syllable lengthening and its position in the utterance at the initial and final positions. Using the syllable [na] at the final and initial position of a prosodic phrase in the Korean version of 'the North Wind and the Sun', it has found that the ratio of phrase final versus phrase initial syllable lengthening was approximately 1.8:1 for 4 subjects taking part in the test. In the case of nonsense data, we found that the ratio was approximately 1.6:1 for 2 out of 3 subjects. The results of this study might indicate that Korean tends to have a high rate of final lengthening. We can tentatively classify it, therefore, as a stress-timed language. Still, there is no denying that further studies should be done before we can be absolutely certain about the classification of languages along the dichotomy scale.

In this study, the qualitative effects of the positional error of carrier pin holes on the planet load sharing characteristics of the three-point suspension gearbox of wind turbines were investigated experimentally. A 35-kW gearbox comprising two planetary gear stages and a parallel gear stage and size one-fourth of that of a 2-MW three-point suspension gearbox was used as the test gearbox. The strain gauges attached to the ring gear teeth of the input planetary gear stage were used for the purpose of this study. The applied loading conditions were 50%, 75%, and 100% of the rated torque, and the mesh load factor was used as the load sharing index. The experimental results indicated that both the magnitude and direction of the positional error of pin holes had a significant effect on the planet load sharing characteristics of the three-point suspension gearbox. In addition, an increase in the applied torque results in uniform load sharing.

연구배경 : 폐쇄성 수면 무호흡증 환자 중 수평와위보다 측와위에서 호흡장애의 정도가 호전되는 체위성 폐쇄성 수면 무호흡증 환자의 신체계측인자와 수면단계 및 수면구조의 특성, 그리고 동맥혈산소포화도의 차이를 수면다원검사를 통하여 확인하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 1996년부터 1998년까지 수면장애로 영남대학병원에서 수면다원검사를 실시하여 폐쇄성 수면 무호흡증으로 진단된 환자 중 20세 이상으로 체질량지수(BMI) 20 이상, 호흡장애지수(RDI) 10 이상, 수평와위와 측와위로 각각 30분 이상 수면을 취했던 환자 50명을 대상으로 하였다. Cartwright 등의 기준에 따라 체위성, 비체위성 수면 무호흡증으로 구분하였다. 수면 다원 검사와 동맥혈 산소포도를 측정하였고 자동 체위감지 장치와 전문검사자의 관찰로 환자의 체위를 확인하였다. 결과 : 체위성 폐쇄성 수면 무호흡증 환자는 전체 폐쇄성 수면 무호흡증 환자의 30%를 차지하였다. 이들의 신체 계측의 특징은 비체위성 무호흡증 환자와 비교할 때 몸무게는 낮은 경향이 있었고(p>0.05), 체질량지수는 낮았다(p<0.05). 체위성 폐쇄성 수면 무호흡증 환자는 수면효율이 높고(p<0.05), 총 수면시간과 깊은 수면을 나타내는 3, 4 단계의 수면지속 시간은 길었으며(p<0.05), 무호흡지수는 유의하게 낮았다(p<0.05). 또한 수면 중 평균저산소포화도 및 평균산소 포화도, 그리고 최저산소포화도는 각각 87.7%, 92.7%, 78.3%로 비체위성 무호흡증 환자보다 유의하게 높았고(p<0.05), 동맥혈 산소 불포화도 지수는 체위성 무호흡증 환자가 훨씬 낮았다(p<0.05). 결과 : 폐쇄성 수면 무호흡증 환자는 체위에 따라 수면 중 발생하는 호흡장애정도나 무호흡 빈도의 차이가 크고, 체질량지수는 이러한 체위에 따른 호흡양상의 변화에 중요한 역할을 한다. 따라서 일부 폐쇄성 수면 무호흡증 환자의 호흡장애를 개선시키기 위하여 체위치료법과 비만도 조절이 중요하며, 수면다원검사를 시행할때 체위변동 관찰과 체위변동에 따른 수면구조의 변화에 대한 평가가 반드시 필요할 것으로 생각한다.

The prosodic characteristics of Korean particles in read speech were examined in this paper based on K-ToBI labeling system in order to see whether they are prosodically weak form like functions words in English. Acoustic measurements and statistical analysis were done focusing on the distribution of particles over a variety of prosodic positions, prosodic positional effects on the phonetic realization of particles, and acoustic strength of particles compared to those of their surrounding syllables. The panicles were distributed rather equally over all 4 prosodic positions with the highest frequency at IP-medial/AP-final position and the lowest at IP-medial/AP-medial position except that topic marker 'Un/nUn' showed preference for IP-final/AP-final position. There was a significant prosodic positional effect on the duration and F0 of the particles. Duration was the longest at IP-final/AP-final position and interestingly, at IP-medial/AP-medial position while F0 was the highest at IP-final/AP-medial Position as expected. The comparison of the acoustic properties of the particles with those of neighbor syllables showed that duration was generally significantly longer and energy also showed larger values, if not significant, in particles suggesting that the particles in Korean are not prosodically weaker like function words in English.

본 연구에서는 레이저스캐닝 데이터의 일종인 LIDAR 데이터를 이용하여 수치정사사진 제작에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 이를 위하여 LIDAR를 이용하여 얻은 XYZ 절점자료(point data)로부터 TIN(Triangular Irregular Network)을 형성한 후. 이로부터 DSM(Digital Surface Model) 을 제작하였다. 그러나 이 과정에서 수치정사사진의 품질에 악영향을 줄 수 있는 절단선(break line)에서의 노이즈가 DSM에서 발생하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이러한 절단선에서의 노이즈를 처리할 수 있는 여러 가지 기법을 적용하였다. 그 결과 건물을 추출하여 저지대(低地帶)에 대한 LIDAR DEM과 합성하는 기법이 가장 적절하다는 결론을 도출하였으며, 이렇게 제작된 LIDAR DSM으로 수치정사사진을 제작하고 품질을 평가해 본 결과 도화축척 1:5,000보다 높은 위치정확도를 지닌 수치정사사진의 제작이 가능하였다.
