Surgical procedures to relieve congenital right ventricular outflow tract[RVOT] obstruction of heart were performed on 125 patients from September 1985 to August 1992. There were 65 males and 60 females. Ages ranged from 7 months to 33 years with a mean age of 8 years. All the patients were divided into three main groups[I, II, III] depending on the presence or absence of cyanosis and combined anomalies. The patient were classified into two groups; A and B according to the outcome after surgical repair. Group A included the patients who had a good postoperative outcome with or without mild complications such as wound disruption, or hydrothorax. Group B included the patients who had a poor outcome including hospital death and significant postoperative complications such as heart failure, low output syndrome, respiratory failure, hepatic failure and others. And the results were summarized as follows. 1. There were no significant differences in age, body surface area and aortic dimension among the group I, II, and III, but there were significant differences among groups in pulmonary arterial dimension, ACT[aortic cross clamping time], TBT [total bypass time], preoperative and postoperative ratio of systolic pressure of right and left ventricles [pre PRV/RV and post PRV/LV], and the size of Hegar dilator which passed through the RVOT postoperatively [p<0.05]. 2. In the group A and B, there were significant differences in pulmonary arterial dimension [group A:1.6$\pm$0.5 cm, group B:1.9$\pm$0.6 cm], ACT [group A:102.3$\pm$ 46.0 minute, group B:76.1$\pm$46.1 minute], TBT [group A:133.9$\pm$56.6 minute, group B:94.9$\pm$51.9 minute], pre PRV/LV [group A:1.06$\pm$0.24, group B:0.8$\pm$0.32], post PRV/LV [group A:0.58$\pm$0.18, group B:0.43$\pm$0.16].It has been concluded that postoperative prognosis of RVOT obstruction was influenced by pulmonary arterial dimension, ACT, TBT, severity of RVOT obstruction [pre PRV/LV] and post PRV/LV.

Background: The zygomaticomaxillary complex (ZMC) has a protruded, convex shape and plays a vital role in determining the contour by affecting the width of the middle face. This study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of ZMC fracture reduction and explore detailed directions for outcome improvement. Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of patients diagnosed with unilateral ZMC fracture who underwent ZMC reduction surgery at a single hospital between January 2015 and May 2020. The primary outcome variable was facial asymmetry using the difference in the bilateral malar eminence (ME) position measured by computed tomography scan. The 3-dimensional distance (I_A, asymmetry index) and the distance in each dimension, D_x (anteroposterior distance), D_y (mediolateral distance), and D_z (superoinferior distance) were compared. Results: A total of 101 patients with ZMC fractures and 54 non-fracture patients were enrolled in the study. The mean age of the study sample was 43.49 years (control sample, 43.35 years), and the male-to-female ratio was 66.3:33.7 (control sample, 64.8:35.2). There were 53 and 48 patients with right and left ZMC fractures, respectively. The I_A was not statistically different between the two groups. In terms of position in each dimension, only D_x was significantly different between the two groups. Conclusion: The results show that overall facial asymmetry was recovered after ZMC reduction, but in certain dimension significant difference in ME position has still remained. For further improvement, treatment should be performed to relieve malar depression in the anteroposterior dimension.

Scene graphs are structured representations that can clearly convey objects and the relationships between them, but are often heavily biased due to the highly skewed, long-tailed relational labeling in the dataset. Indeed, the visual world itself and its descriptions are biased. Therefore, Unbiased Scene Graph Generation (USGG) prefers to train models to eliminate long-tail effects as much as possible, rather than altering the dataset directly. To this end, we propose Geometric and Semantic Improvement (GSI) for USGG to mitigate this issue. First, to fully exploit the feature information in the images, geometric dimension and semantic dimension enhancement modules are designed. The geometric module is designed from the perspective that the position information between neighboring object pairs will affect each other, which can improve the recall rate of the overall relationship in the dataset. The semantic module further processes the embedded word vector, which can enhance the acquisition of semantic information. Then, to improve the recall rate of the tail data, the Class Balanced Seesaw Loss (CBSLoss) is designed for the tail data. The recall rate of the prediction is improved by penalizing the body or tail relations that are judged incorrectly in the dataset. The experimental findings demonstrate that the GSI method performs better than mainstream models in terms of the mean Recall@K (mR@K) metric in three tasks. The long-tailed imbalance in the Visual Genome 150 (VG150) dataset is addressed better using the GSI method than by most of the existing methods.

A patient with para-functional habits can cause widespread teeth wear, along with temporomandibular joint disorders and myofascial pain syndrome in the masticatory muscles. Prolonged teeth wear is associated with a decrease in vertical occlusal dimension, leading to issues such as changes in facial morphology, decreased masticatory efficiency, and temporomandibular joint disorders. To achieve a three-dimensional full-mouth rehabilitation in patients with decreased vertical occlusal dimension, accurate diagnosis, analysis, and proactive treatment planning are essential. Prosthetic treatment accompanied by the restoration of physiological vertical occlusal dimension and the re-establishment of a normal occlusal plane is necessary. This case report presents a full-mouth rehabilitation case involving a patient with overall teeth wear, showing decreased vertical occlusal dimension which results in discomfort in the temporomandibular joint and aesthetic dissatisfaction. The report highlights the successful outcome achieved through the use of occlusal stabilization splint for temporomandibular joint stability and Gothic arch tracing devices for the re-establishment of intermaxillary relationships. Also, through adjustments and adaptation assessment using provisional prostheses, favorable outcomes were achieved both functionally and aesthetically.

For effective light harvesting, a design weighting should be implemented in a front geometry, in which the incident light transmits from a surface into a light-active layer. We designed a three-dimensionally patterned transparent conductor layer for effective light management. A transparent conductive oxide (TCO) film was formed as three-dimensional structures. This efficiently drives the incident light at the front surface into a Si absorber to yield a reduction in reflection and an enhancement of current. This indicates that an optimum architecture for a front TCO surface will provide an effective way for light management in solar cells.

We provide definitions for the helicoidal Killing field and the helicoid in arbitrary three-manifolds, and investigate helicoids and ruled minimal surfaces in homogeneous three-manifolds, mainly in $SL_2{\mathbb{R}}$ and Sol(3). In so doing we finish our classification of ruled minimal surfaces in homogeneous three-manifolds with the isometry group of dimension 4.

Three dimensional structures of detonation wave propagating through a square-shaped duct were investigated using computational method and parallel processing. Inviscid fluid dynamics equations coupled with $variable-{\gamma}$ formulation and simplified one-step Arrhenius chemical reaction model were analysed by MUSCL-type TVD scheme and four stage Runge-Kutta time integration. The unsteady computational results in three dimension show the detailed mechanism of transverse mode and diagonal mode of detonation wave instabilities resulting same cell length but different cell width in smoked-foil record.

In this paper we derive an integral formula on an (n + 3)-dimensional, compact, minimal contact three CR-submanifold M of (p-1) contact three CR-dimension immersed in a unit (4m+3)-sphere $S^{4m+3}$. Using this integral formula, we give a sufficient condition concerning the scalar curvature of M in order that such a submanifold M is to be a generalized Clifford torus.

Three-dimensional structures of unsteady detonation wave propagating through a square-shaped tube is studied using computational method and parallel processing. Inviscid fluid dynamics equations coupled with variable-${\gamma}$ formulation and simplified one-step Arrhenius chemical reaction model were analysed by a MUSCL-type TVD scheme and four stage Runge-Kutta time integration. Results in three dimension show the two unsteady detonation wave propagating mode, the Rectangular and diagonal mode of detonation wave instabilities. Two different modes of instability showed the same cell length but different cell width and the geometric similarities in smoked-foil record.
