19세기 내내 미국 음향학이 유럽에 뒤쳐져 있었을 때, 미국의 음향학자인 앨프레드 메이어는 미국의 실험 음향학을 유럽의 수준으로 끌어올리는 데 크게 기여했다. 그는 파리에 머물면서 악기 제작자인 쾨니히와의 협동 연구를 통해 실험 기술을 전수 받았고 영국을 방문하여 레일리를 비롯한 앞선 연구자들의 연구 능력을 배우는 기회를 갖기도 했다. 이러한 노력의 결과로 메이어는 온도에 따른 음속 변화를 이용한 음향 고온계의 개발, 선택적 공명에 의한 모기 청각의 발견, 소리의 잔류 감각 지속의 공식화, 소리의 방향을 찾아내는 토포폰의 개발, 음의 진동수를 가시화 하는 장치 등 독창적인 성과를 통해 유럽에서 명성을 얻었다. 그는 유럽의 음향학에 독창적인 연구 성과를 더했을 뿐 아니라 음향학을 물리 교육에도 활용함으로써 차세대 미국 음향학자들의 배출에 기여했다.

Recurrent Bell's palsy is a very rare case and have been reported that shows the incidence to be approximately 10 per cent in the Bell's palsy patents. It is generally accepted that facial paralysis caused by compression of the facial nerve by tumor develops slowly and has an unremitting course, however, reported cases have described the rare association of recurrent facial paralysis and intracranial tumor, and the same recovery rate. Usual symptoms of Bell's palsy include subacute facial palsy, hyperacusis on the affected side, postauricular pain on the affected side, altered sensation of taste, and partial trigeminal distribution hypesthesias. Complete resolution of symptoms is usually seen in 2-3months in $75-85\%$ of cases, with $25-35\%$ showing varying degrees of residual effects. We report a case of 4th ipsilateral recurrent Bell's palsy in a 14-year-old women, which was occurred in every winters. We treated her with acupuncture, moxibustion, herbal medication, carbon and silver spike point, and used House-Brackmnn grading system(HBGS) and the Fisch Detailed Evaluation of Facial Symmetry(DEFS) to assess the degree of paralysis in each part of face.

Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the gender-differences in vibrotactile responses(sensitivity and displeasure) of residual forearm simulated by vibration stimulation in upper limb(trans-radial) amputees. Background: Several studies have reported that vibration stimulation using the haptic vibrator is one the most effective methods for delivering sensation to an amputees. However, few studies have reported the perception to haptic vibratory stimulus, particularly sensitivity and displeasure. Method: We set up a custom-made vibration stimulation system that included 6 actuators(3 medial parts and 3 lateral parts) and a graphical user interface(GUI)-based acquisition system to investigate changes in residual somatosensory sensibility and displeasure in the forearm of upper limb(trans-radial) amputees. Vibration actuators were attached at the 25%-point on the proximal forearm. Stimulation with 32Hz, 64Hz, or 149Hz of frequency was used for the sensitivity tests and with 32~257Hz of frequency was used for the discomfort experiments. The subjective responses were evaluated on a 10 point scale. Results: The results showed that vibrotactile sensory perception in male amputees were higher than that in female amputees. In male amputees, the response at lateral area of forearm was the most sensitive than medial area; but, female amputees showed similar sensitive areas. Subjects did not experience any discomfort during vibrotactile stimuli. Conclusion: Vibrotactile response in the amputees was dependent on gender as well as area stimulated by vibration. Application: The results might contribute to develop the vibrotactile feedback system for the amputees.

의치상 하방의 잔존 치조제는 시간이 지남에 따라 생리적인 흡수가 일어난다. 이로 인하여 기존의 의치는 잔존 치조제와의 적합성이 떨어지게 되며, 임상적으로 교합평면의 변화, 수직고경의 감소, 의치의 유지력과 안정성의 소실로 인한 구강기능의 상실 및 심미적인 손상이 나타난다. 따라서 의치상과 잔존 치조제 사이의 첨상은 의치의 유지관리면에서 필수적이며 잔존 치조제와 의치상의 정확한 적합은 의치 치료의 성공을 결정하는 중요한 요인이 된다. 통상적인 첨상의 방법으로는 진료실에서 시행하는 직접법과 기공실에서 시행하는 간접법이 있다. 직접법은 진료실에서 시행하기 때문에 간편하고 쉽게 시행할 수 있는 장점이 있으나, 의치상 레진과 첨상재의 결합강도에 따라 영향을 받을 수 있는 단점이 존재한다. 반면, 간접법은 기공실에서 시행하며 첨상재와 의치상 레진간의 결합력을 제공한다는 장점이 있으나, 기공실 작업 기간 동안에 환자가 의치를 사용할 수 없다는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 CAD-CAM의치를 포함하여 첨상에 사용하는 재료들과 각각의 특징들을 살펴보고, 첨상시 임상적으로 고려해야 하는 사항에 대해 알아보고자 한다.

Objectives : This report intended to estimate effects taken by using Dong-Qi Acupuncture Therapy on a patient with neurogenic bladder induced by transverse myelitis(712, L1 level). Methods : From 6th May, 2005 to 30th June, 2005. The patient received Dong-Qi Acupuncture Therapy. Results : 1. Since being hospitalized, the patient's voiding has improved from intermittent catheterization to independent urination state. And the volume of residual urine has decreased from 150cc-350cc to 0cc-l0cc. 2. The urodynamic findings showed that first sensation, maximal detrusor pressure, compliance and maximal bladder capacity changed from 456ml to 195mL, from 29cmH2O to 31cmH2O, from none to 25.31mL/cmH2O, from under 650mL to 590mL, respectively. Conclusion : We considered Dong-Qi Acupuncture Therapy had a useful effect on Neurogenic Bladder.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to report the effect of Korean medical treatment on a patient with relapsing transverse myelitis. Methods : The patient was treated using acupuncture, pharmacopuncture, herbal medicine and other treatments including moxibustion and therapeutic exercise for 8 weeks. We evaluated the patient's motor grade with medical research council(MRC) scale and evaluated active range of motion in the hip, knee, and anke joint. Results : Through treatment the patient's motor grade and active range of motion all improved. Other symptoms such as lower limb hypoesthesia and residual urine sensation also showed improvement. Conclusions : We concluded that Korean medicine treatment had respectable effect in improving symptoms on the patient with relapsing transverse myelitis.

저자들은 전자궁적축술과 요실금 수술후 요도폐색이 발생한 43세의 여자 환자에서 장기간의 간헐적 자가도뇨법과 약물요법으로 치료되지 않아, 외요도구 상방을 통한 요도 박리술을 시행하여 좋은 결과를 볼 수 있었다. 저자들의 견해로는 과거에 부인과 수술과 동반해서 시행하거나 혹은 복측으로 치골후방으로 접근하여 시행한 요실금수술이나 요도하부 슬링수술등의 방법으로 인해 요도 폐색이 발생시 외요도구 상방을 통한 요도박리술이 바람직할 것으로 사료된다.

The aim of this study was to assess the usefulness of PCR for diagnosis of Trichomonas vaginalis infection among male patients with chronic recurrent prostatitis and urethritis. Between June 2001 and December 2003, a total of 33 patients visited the Department of Urology, Hanyang University Guri Hospital and were examined for T. vaginalis infection by PCR and culture in TYM medium. For the PCR, we used primers based on a repetitive sequence cloned from T. vaginalis (TV-E650). Voided bladder urine (VB1 and VB3) was sampled from 33 men with symptoms of lower urinary tract infection (urethral charge, residual urine sensation, and frequency). Culture failed to detect any T. vaginalis infection whereas PCR identified 7 cases of trichomoniasis (21.2%). Five of the 7 cases had been diagnosed with prostatitis and 2 with urethritis. PCR for the 5 prostatitis cases yielded a positive 330 bp band from bothVB1 and VB3, whereas positive results were only obtained from VB1 for the 2 urethritis patients. We showed that the PCR method could detect T. vaginalis when there was only 1 T. vaginalis cell per PCR mixture. Our results strongly support the usefulness of PCR on urine samples for detecting T. vaginalis in chronic prostatitis and urethritis patients.

복압성 요실금에 동반되는 다양한 방광 자극증상은 빈뇨, 잔뇨감, 야간뇨, 절박뇨, 절박성 요실금, 배뇨통의 순이었으며, 이 증상들의 복합 정도가 많으면 삶의 질에 영향을 주고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 마이크로칩을 이용한 전기자극기는 특별한 부작용 없이 환자의 만족도가 높은 치료기로 생각되었으며, 복압성 요실금과 동반되는 야간뇨, 배뇨통 등의 방광 자극증상을 경감시킴으로 인해 현재의 배뇨 상태가 일상생활에 미치는 영향을 감소시키는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다.

The results were as Follows. 1. Therapeutic improvement of symptoms were distributed the voiding symptoms(81.3%), the Pain-neurological symptoms(80.0%), the others symptoms(77.6%) and the symptoms related with sexual punction(77.1%). 2. Therapeutic improvement rate of whole symptoms was 79.5%. 3. The voding symptoms was the most effectively improved and cured than any other symptoms. 4. The residual urine sensation was the most effectvely improved(93.7%) and the Urethral discharge was the less ineffectually improved(61.2%) than any other single symptoms. 5. Most symptoms of the voiding symptoms were improved over 80%. 6. According to the change of WBC counts on expressed prostatic secretion(EPS), improvement rate was 45.0% and cure rate was 15.0%.
