The most widely used method of pain control in dental practice is to block the pathway of painful impulses by local anesthesia. For a maximum effect of pain control at outpatient minor operation, regional anesthesia including nerve block must be performed. This issue includes various dental local anesthetic techniques on mandible, maxilla and considerations for selection of dental local anesthetics according to patient's age, duration of operation. Additionally, current conscious sedation technique combined with local anesthesia will be introduced for control of patient's anxiousness. Based on patient's general condition, severity of operation, local anesthesia sometimes must be changed into general anesthesia to avoid failure of dental practice. The exact choice of anesthetic techniques for minor operations at dental outpatient clinic must not be underestimated for complete success of pain control.

The effects of three minor elements, S, Ce and Bi, on the inoculation ability and fading behavior of 1.0 wt%Ba-Fe-Si were investigated through thermal analysis. The performance of 1.0 wt%Ba-Fe-Si inoculant was better and more consistant at the high temperature range of $1,450{\sim}1,500^{\circ}C$ than that of low one of $1,300{\sim}1,400^{\circ}C$. That was improved with individual addition of three minor elements. The optimum amount of addition was 1.0% of the weight of inoculant added, respectively. That was improved also by the simultaneous addition of two or three kinds of minor elements. Even though worse with the addition of two kinds of them simultaneously than with individual addition, that was improved with the simultaneous addition of all three kinds over that with the individual one.

Change of protein component in soybean sprout grown at four temperatures was investigated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Main bands were identified using purified seed globulins. Electrophoretogram showed 5 main bands (a. b, c, d, and p) and 10 minor bands in seed and maximum number (19) of bands (8 main band including 0 and 11 minor) at 4th day after germination in cotyledon. All bands appeared in axis protein but resolution was poor. In cotyledon, a component (most rapidly) and b+c+d component decreased while o+p component and other minor components were increased at 6th day and decreased thereafter. In axis all components increased rapidly, especially in minor components and b+c+d component. High growing temperature accelerated decrease in cotyledon and increase in axis of protein, especially for 11S. The a component was identified as 7S, b+c+d as 11S and o+p as 2S globulin.

The minor construction companies in Korea have grown in focusing on the construction operation field. Also, soft field is vulnerable area, and there are not enough delivery systems, therefore, a capacity of the construction industry expansion and productivity is insufficient. Furthermore, the minor construction companies are losing their areas, because the major construction companies having numerous know-how and ample funds are competitive. As the construction industry are more larger and complicated, the design build methods might be increased in the construction industry and the minor construction companies could have more competitive. Hence, this paper analyzes the success factor in minor construction projects by design build methods focusing on instance $company^{\circ}{\phi}s$ case and survey, and critical success factor deduction and importance degree analysis of this factor using AHP analysis. In addition, this paper gives fundamental data how to manage the construction project effectively for minor construction $companies^{\circ}{\phi}s$ expansion in near future.

Epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma is rare, low grade malignant tumor of the salivary glands that exhibits a dual composition of epithelial and myoepithelial cells. Most of these tumors arise in the parotid gland, and only few occur in the submandibular gland or minor salivary glands. We describe here a rare case of epithelialmyoepithelial carcinoma arising from a minor salivary gland in the nasopharynx, one of the most unusual locations. The clinical and biological behavior of this tumor is not yet known.

This study was carried out to investigate the properties of cucumber kimchi prepared with different minor ingredients(potato, puchu). Acidity, pH, color value, hardness, and lactic acid bacteria were measured under the condition of $10^{\circ}C$ for 25 days. Five conditions of making cucumber kimchi included: cucumber kimchi with puchu 300g(treatment 1, control), cucumber kimchi with potato 90g, puchu 210 g(treatment 2, 5-1), cucumber kimchi with potato 150g, puchu 150 g(treatment 3, S-2), cucumber kimchi with potato 210g, puchu 90 g(treatment 4, S-3), cucumber kimchi with potato 270g, puchu 30g(treatment 5, S-4). Hardness of cucumber kimchi appeared higher values as the potatoe's volume increased(S-1, S-2, S-3, S-4), during all fermentation days. The results showed very significant values in pH(p<0.001), acidity(p<0.001), 'L' of lightness(p<0.05), hardness(p<0.001), lactic acid bacteria(p<0.001) according to fermentation. And the results showed very significant values in 'a' of redness(p<0.01), hardness(p<0.001) according to cucumber kimchi samples. These results showed that fermentation patterns of cucumber kimchi were influenced by the different minor ingredients used.

Increasing the active catalyst surface area is important in improving a converter's efficiency. In addition, uniform flow is advantageous in that it produces more efficient catalytic conversion. This results in the ability to use a smaller catalytic converter with uniform flow as opposed to a larger converter requirement for non-uniform flow. Therefore, it is important to characterize the internal flow of the catalytic converter. To characterize the system's flow patterns, velocity measurements were taken at the mid and exit planes of a ceramic honeycomb catalytic converter at flow rates of 37.8 l/s and 94.4 l/s. Measurements were conducted using LDV. The profiles were measured along both the major and minor axis of the planes. Primary flow direction velocities measured along the minor axis, at both flow rates, varied greatly at the mid plane and somewhat at the exit plane. The areas of greatest air flow were seen near the edges of the walls and on the side of the converter opposite the flow's entrance region. It also appears that the high velocities opposite the intake are due to the design of the entrance region. The entrance region is possibly too small to properly redirect the vertically entering fluid into an evenly distributed flow in the primary flow direction.

A 74-year-old female presented with a complaint of dry mouth, continuous spontaneous burning sensation in the tongue, and asymptomatic submucosal soft tissue mass on both sides of the lower labial mucosa. She refused to undergo total excision of the mass due to concern about the possibility of complications such as nerve damage because of the large size of the mass. As her clinical features and magnetic resonance imaging indicated the possibility of Sjögren's syndrome, a biopsy of the minor salivary gland of the right lower lip was performed. Consequently, she was diagnosed with mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma. Although the patient had typical signs and symptoms of Sjögren's syndrome, the histopathological result of MALT lymphoma made it impossible to determine whether the patient had a history of Sjögren's syndrome. For patients with risk factors for MALT lymphoma, such as Sjögren's syndrome, a biopsy of the labial minor salivary gland with immunohistochemical staining can be helpful in the diagnosis of not only Sjögren's syndrome but also MALT lymphoma.

Music and mathematics have a lot of structural similarities. Major and minor triads used importantly in music are in a relationship of inversion in which the sequence of the intervals is reversed, which is equivalent to reflection in mathematics. Geometrical expressions help understand structures in music as well as mathematics, and a diagram that shows tonal relationships in music is called Tonnetz. Relationships of reflection between major and minor triads can easily be understood by using Tonnetz, and also, transpositions can be expressed in translation. This study looks into existing Tonnetz and introduces S-Tonnetz newly formed by a mathematical principle.

The Cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) is degenerative compressive myelopathy which initiation of symptoms seems to be induced by minor cervical trauma or spontaneous event. There was a case of Claim medical examination which was requested to discriminate the cause of ambulatory quadriparesis. Patient asserted that the onset of his myelopathy was followed by minor trauma. The author considered the medical recordings, MRI scan, Claim reports by claim manager. The space available for cord was the smallest at C3-4 level. But on MRI findings, the spinal cord at C3-4 level seemed to be already damaged. There were no recent injury evidences such as hemorrhages, spinal cord contusions, edema, soft tissue hemorrhages. If the space available for cord was small enough to compress the spinal cord, the serious neurologic deficits, non-ambulatory quadriplegia, etc were commonly induced by cervical extension trauma. Patient's asserts did not correspond to his clinical course after cervical trauma. The author reports a case of medical examination for the relationship between symptom onset of cervical spondylotic myelopathy and minor trauma within author's experience.
