The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of wearing the removable partial denture on plaque accumulation. Twelve removable partial denture cases were examined. Patients were recalled three consecutive 3 day periods. Plaque index was measured after each 3 day period. (1) not wearing the denture, (2) wearing the denture, (3) wearing the denture after intensive tooth brushing instruction. The results were as follows: 1. Plaque indices of all the remaining teeth were higher following the wearing of removable partial denture than those of teeth not wearing the denture and those of teeth after intensive tooth brushing instruction. 2. Plaque indices showed statistical difference between all the tooth surfaces which were in contact with the denture and those which were not. 3. Plaque indices showed no statistical difference between buccal and lingual surfaces which were in contact with the denture and those which were not. 4. Plaque indices showed statistical difference between proximal surfaces which were in contact with the denture and those which were not.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of posture difference on respiratory function in cerebral palsy patients. Methods : Twenty-two cerebral palsy childrens were recruited this study. Respiratory Function test was measured with Cardio Touch 3000 and Micro Respiratory Pressure Meter. Cardio Touch 3000 was used to assess cerebral palsy childrens' forced vital capacity and forced expiratory volume at one second. Micro Respiratory Pressure Meter was to assess Maximum inspiratory pressure and Maximum expiratory pressure. Subjects had four respiratory functions measured in supine, slouched sitting, and elected sitting postures. Statistical analysis was used Paired t-test for within-group comparisons and Independent t-test for between-group comparisons. SPSS statistics Ver 20.0 was used for statistical anlysis and statistical significance was defined as a p-value less than 0.05. Result : The subjects' respiratory function according to posture showed significant difference in Forced Vital Capacity(FVC), Maximum Expiratory Pressure(MEP) and Maximum inspiratory pressure(MIP)(p<.05). Elected sitting posture had a positive effect on respiratory function than slouched sitting, supine. Conclusion : In conclusion, We could see that change of posture in children with cerebral palsy affects respiratory function and Elected sitting can be a positive help for the respiratory function of children with cerebral palsy.

This study was done to evaluate the effect of fixed orthodontic patients on the level of oral streptococci, Streptococcus mutans, lactobacilli, yeasts in saliva. 35 patients wearing bands were compared with age-matched 35 non-banded control group by conlony counting method on the specially designed culture medium. The following results were obtained ; 1. The colony forming unit(CFU) of total streptocci per militer of saliva in subjects with or without orthodontic treatment showed no significant statistical difference between them(p>0.05). 2. The colony forming unit(CFU) of total Streptococcus mutans per mililiter of saliva in subjects with orthodontic treatment showed significantly higher than those without orthodontic treatment(p<0.05). 3. The colony forming unit(CFU) of total lactobacilli per mililiter of saliva in sujects with or without orthodontic treatment showed no significant statistical difference between them but higher tendency in those with orthodontic treatment(p=0.052). 4. The colony forming unit(CFU) of total yeasts per mililiter of saliva in subjects with or without orthodontic treatment showed no significant statistical difference between them(p>0.05).

This study investigated, using the Orbscan II topography system, the influence of age and sex related changes on the corneal thickness and anterior corneal curvature, more specifically the fine structure of the cornea, in a Korean young population. The Orbscan II topography system is a computer-assisted slit-beam scanning technology that can map the anterior section of the cornea. The mean central corneal thickness of all subjects was $547.532{\pm}44.529\;{\mu}m$. There was no statistical difference (p>0.5) in the mean central corneal thickness between males and females. Sex and age related changes in the mean central corneal thickness had no specific statistical difference (P>0.5). There was a negative correlation between the anterior corneal curvature and the central corneal thickness in all subjects, except for the twenty year olds. However, the thickness relationship between the mean central corneal and the eight paracentral corneal thicknesses had strong statistical differences in all subjects. Also age and sex related changes in the central corneal thickness and the anterior corneal curvature in all subjects had no statistically significant difference, except from 20-26 years old (p>0.05). This information could be a suitable reference basis for future studies in the young population of Asia and for the development of examination tools for corneal refractive surgery.

미결정자 추론을 재평가하기 위해 기존 변수에 새로운 변수들을 추가하는 통계 모형이 필요하다. 미결정자와 결정자의 양성률은 다르게 계산되기 때문에 MNAR 가정이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 두 통계적 모형이 계층 관계를 가지고 있으므로, 두 AUC 차이의 신뢰구간을 이용하여 MNAR 가정하에서 미결정자를 추론한다. AUC 차이 신뢰구간의 추정방법 중에서 모의실험을 통하여 네 종류의 방법의 성능이 우수함을 발견하였다. 그리고 네 종류의 방법을 바탕으로 로지스틱 회귀를 이용한 미결정자 추론에 도움이 되는 변수를 선택하는 방법을 제안한다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes in body temperature of canine via their hair lengths before and after grooming. A total of 120 companion canines were used in this study for a total of 6 weeks, and 20 dogs each week consisted of both 10 poodles and 10 malteses (five females and males). For accurate temperature measurement, the anal depth was measured at approximately 1.5 cm. Temperature before and after grooming was measured at 10 am and after more than three hours, respectively. There was statistical significance (p<0.05) in body temperature changes for male poodles at 1, 2, and 3 weeks and for female poodles at 1, 3, 4, and 5 weeks, and the total period showed a statistical difference for both male and female poodles (p<0.05). In addition, male and female malteses had an effect (p<0.05) on changes in body temperature at 1 and 6 weeks and only at 4 weeks, respectively. For total period, there was a statistical difference in male and female poodles (p<0.05). Moreover, when the temperature changes of females were compared, there was no remarkable difference. In conclusion, the body temperatures of both male and female dogs according to the length of their hair were lower after grooming than before grooming. The measurement of body temperature three hours after grooming, which could reduce stress or other factors, is judged to be able to help customers who are worried about clipping.

In this article we consider a sequential procedure for the fixed width interval estimation of the means of two mutually independent linear processes. It is shown that the proposed stopping rule is asymptotically efficient as in iid samples (cf. Robbins, Simons and Starr(l967)).

In this paper, we develop the noninformative priors when the parameter of interest is the difference between quantiles of two exponential distributions. We want to develop the first and second order probability matching priors. But we prove that the second order probability matching prior does not exist. It turns out that Jeffreys' prior does not satisfy the first order matching criterion. The Bayesian credible intervals based on the first order probability matching prior meet the frequentist target coverage probabilities much better than the frequentist intervals of Jeffreys' prior. Some simulation and real example will be given.

The purpose of this study is to compare the voice differences of persons with Idiopathic Parkinson's disease and a normal group according to five vowels. Eight persons with Idiopathic Parkinson's disease and a healthy control group of 22 were selected and every voice analyzed by MDVP. The first result showed that jitter measurements between the two group showed a significant statistical difference according to all vowels. Second, the two groups' shimmer measurements showed a significant statistical difference according to nearly all vowels. Third, jitter measurements between the five vowels were more relatively closely correlated persons with Idiopathic Parkinson's disease than the normal group. Fourth, shimmer figures between the five vowels more relatively closely correlated persons with Idiopathic Parkinson's disease than the normal group.
