Objectives: Ultra-wide implants may be used as a replacement if existing implants fail. This study was conducted to evaluate the factors influencing the prognosis and failure of ultra-wide implants. Patients and Methods: This study evaluated whether sex, age, site, diameter, length, additional surgery, implant stability (primary and secondary), and reason for ultra-wide implant placement affect the 5-year survival and success rates and marginal bone loss (MBL) of ultra-wide implants. Seventy-eight ultra-wide implants that were placed in 71 patients (39 males and 32 females) from 2008 to 2010 were studied. One-way ANOVA analysis was conducted to evaluate the statistical significance of MBL according to the patient's sex, implant site, and diameter. Independent sample t-tests were used to determine the statistical significance of MBL analysis which was used to determine the significance of the 5-year success and survival rates related to the variables. One-way ANOVA was conducted to evaluate the statistical significance of sex, implantation site, diameter, and MBL. Independent sample t-tests were used to evaluate the correlation between implantability and MBL for implantation reasons, while additional surgery, length, and Kaplan-Meier analysis were used to evaluate 5-year survival and success rates. Results: The mean age of patients was 54.2 years with a survival rate of 92.3% and a success rate of 83.3% over a mean 97.8-month period of observation. MBL averaged 0.2 mm after one year of prosthetic function loading and 0.54 mm at the time of final observation. Success rates correlated with primary stability (P=0.045), survival rates correlated with secondary stability (P=0.036), and MBL did not correlate with any variables. Conclusion: Ultra-wide implants can be used to achieve secure initial fixation in the maxillary and mandibular molar regions with poor bone quality or for alternative purposes in cases of previous implant failure.

The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence and the degree of interappointment pain and post obturation pain associated with the pretreated clinical factors or conditions, and to examine the correlation between the success or failure and the pretreated clinical factors or conditions and postoperative pain. The author experienced the conventional root canal therapy in one hundred fifty-one teeth after recording the following clinical factors or conditions - sex, age, pulp vitality status, presence or absence of periapical rarefaction, single or multirooted teeth, pretreatment pain, and investigated the pain during and after treatment for seven days. After six months all the cases were re-evaluated through the clinical sign, symptom, and the recalled radiograph. The following results were obtained; 1. Of the 151 teeth (73.5%) had no interappointment pain, 31 teeth (20.5%) slight pain; and 9 teeth (6.0%) moderate to severe pain. 2. The presence of the pretreatment pain significantly increased the incidence and degree of interappointment, and there were no significant relationship between interappointment pain and other clinical factors or conditions. 3. Of the 151 teeth, 142 teeth (4.0%) experienced no post obturation pain, 3 teeth (2.0%) slight pain, 6 teeth (4.0%) moderate to severe pain. 4. There were no statistical correlation between postobturation pain and any of the clinical factor or conditions. 5. 141 teeth (3.4%) of 151 teeth were evaluated as success in this study, and success rate was decreased significantly in the cases of periapical rarefaction before treatment and postobturation pain. But there were no significant relationship between success or failure and other clinical factors or conditions.

Background/Aims: Situs inversus viscerum (SIV) is a congenital condition defined by left-to-right transposition of all visceral organs. This anatomical variant has caused technical challenges in endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). Data on ERCP in patients with SIV are limited to case reports of unknown clinical and technical success rates. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical and technical success rates of ERCP in patients with SIV. Methods: Data from patients with SIV who underwent ERCP were retrospectively reviewed. The data were collected by querying the nationwide Veterans Affairs Health System database for patients diagnosed with SIV who underwent ERCP. Patient demographics and procedural characteristics were collected. Results: Eight patients with SIV who underwent ERCP were included. Choledocholithiasis was the most common indication for ERCP (62.5%). The technical success rate was 63%. Subsequent ERCP with interventional radiology-assisted rendezvous has increased the technical success rate to 100%. Clinical success was achieved in 63% of cases. Among cases of subsequent rendezvous ERCP after conventional ERCP failure, clinical success was achieved in 100%. Conclusions: The clinical and technical success rates of ERCP in patients with SIV were both 63%. In patients with SIV in whom ERCP fails, interventional radiology-assisted rendezvous ERCP can be considered.

With various success stories of crowdfunding, government's establishment of crowdfunding act, and expected rapid growth of crowdfunding market, the potential ripple effect of crowdfunding on our society is anticipated to be enormous. This study investigates the influential factors and their impacts on the likelihood of project success in donation-based crowdfunding through the DonorsChoose case. The authors analyze the characteristics of project creator, characteristics of project, and behaviors of project participants in relation to the success or failure of the corresponding project. Consequently, the authors found that participants of donation-based crowdfunding exhibit altruistic behaviors and obtained the following specific results: First, donation participation and social capital of the project creator, and marginal help utility of receivers positively affect the success of project. Second, experience of past project creation of the project creator negatively affects the success of project. Third, past donations of the project creator to others' projects, when not appropriately signaled like on the DonorsChoose platform, may not exert a positive influence on the success of project and the reciprocity principle may not work.

기업은 프로젝트의 중요성을 인지하고 프로젝트의 실패요인을 찾아 위험을 미연에 방지하여 프로젝트의 성공율을 높이기 위해 노력해야 한다. 이것은 급변하는 외부의 변화에 신속히 대응하기 위해 필요하다. 선행연구에서도 이러한 프로젝트의 성공요인 및 실패요인에 대한 연구가 다양하게 수행되었으나, 대부분 설문조사와 샘플링 통계분석으로 연구가 수행되어 데이터의 객관성과 정량적 분석에 한계를 갖고 있었다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 프로젝트의 실패요인 분석을 객관적인 프로젝트의 평가보고서인 감리결과보고서에서 프로젝트의 문제를 발견하고 개선권고사항을 제시하는 부분의 텍스트를 도출하여 텍스트 마이닝을 수행하였다. 텍스트 마이닝에 적용한 알고리즘은 분류 성능이 우수한 NaiveBayes, SMO, J48 알고리즘이다. 실험은 10배 교차검증을 수행하였고 정확률과 재현율로 평가하였다. 도출된 텍스트에서 프로젝트의 실패요인을 분석하여 프로젝트 수행에 활용될 수 있도록 하였다.

There are various factors to determine success and failure of new product development. Among them one of the most important factors for success will be strategic management of development process for a new product. First the development process for a new product in domestic restaurant business is improvement of existing product quality or extension of a product line. Second, the study found that there is a strong relationship between the development strategy.for a new product and its outcome. The more focused a product becomes in cost efficiency and customer relations, the better reflected the financial and non financial outcome can be in analysis. Third, financial outcome tends to be considered more than non financial outcome on deciding success of the new product development. Fourth, the study indicates that there is a direct relationship between financial non financial outcome analysis and success of new product development.

The objective of the study is to verify the discriminatory power of technology innovation in predicting Early Stage Ventures' success or failure. To accomplish this objective, we test early stage ventures'(Firm's period is below 3 years)technology innovation and performance. The result of the study is expected to be useful in loan evaluation, investment decision, internal management decision making and business improvement. The results of study is as follows. First, Early Stage Ventures' technology innovation power is composed of 4 major indexes(technology, marketability, manufacturing infra and economic feasibility). Second, we find that thirty-seven minor indexes are significant ex-ante variable which are discriminating between firms' success and failure in Early Stage Ventures. Also thirty-seven minor indexes explain 57.2% of the total variance. This explainable power of these indexes is similar to that of the existing 58 index elements. Finally, we find that the most important technology innovation power of Early Stage Ventures' is economic feasibility.
