Regarding chemical changes in oriental drugs after food processing such as roasting, fermentation, and extrusion, fifty commonly-used medicinal plants were investigated. As a result, Aurantii nobilis Pericarpium (a tangerine peel from Citrus unshu Markovich) showed remarkably different HPLC profiles after being roasted. An increased peak was isolated by repeated chromatography and identified as 5-hydroxymethyl furfral (5-HMF) by means of instrumental analyses. The 5-HMF content of Aurantii nobilis Pericarpoum reached its maximum level after being roasted for 30 min at 225$^{\circ}C$ (49.2 mg/g extract, ca 42 times of increase over untreated control). Although there were no significant changes in in vitro biological activity such as antioxidative, anti-dementia, anti-hypertension, anti-coagulation, or cytotoxicity, before and after roasting process, our results suggested that simple heat treatment might improve the value of the above oriental drug since 5-HMF has been known to possess inhibitory activities toward nitric oxide formation, tyrosinase, and sickling of red blood cells.

The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of the after school sports club activity on the school life satisfaction in the middle school students. A total of 640 middle school students in D city at september, 2012 were selected using the stratified cluster random sampling method. The survey instrument was utilized for the current study. Independent variables included participation or non-participation and the level of participation(frequency, duration, intensity), and dependent variables contained the school life satisfaction(classmate, teacher, learning activity, school event, and following rules). After the pilot test, the frequency analysis, exploratory factor analysis, reliability analysis, t-test, correlation analysis, and regression analysis were conducted with the SPSS 18.0 program. Main findings were as followed: First, the school life satisfaction of the middle school students participating in the after school sports club activity was higher than it of non-participants. Second, the level of participation in the after school sports clubs activity had an influence on the school life satisfaction. In detail, satisfaction with the school life of students who frequently, long, and intensively participated in the after school sports club activity was higher.

After-school activities were examined for 449 rural children in first through seventh grades. Childrens engagement of after-school activities were significantly different by child and family characteristics, especially childrens age and behavior control ability. Findings showed a decline in amount of time spent studying and reading and a raise in going to a game-room. Childrens school achievement, emotional and social development were also differed by a range of after-school activities. Children spent more time in studying and reading showed higher grades, happiness, school life. Teachers reported greater aggressive behavior and less adjustment of school life among children participating more in game related activities and hanging out. Watching TV, doing house chores and visiting friends were not variables which showed different outcomes.

Background: Closed reduction is the standard treatment for nasal bone fractures, which are the most common type of facial bone fractures. We investigated the effect of closed reduction on quality of life. Methods: The 15-dimensional health-related quality of life survey was administered to 120 patients who underwent closed reduction under general anesthesia for nasal bone fractures from February 2018 to December 2019, on both the day after surgery and 3 months after surgery. Three months postoperatively, the presence or absence of five nasal symptoms (nose obstruction, snoring, pain, nasal secretions, and aesthetic dissatisfaction) was also evaluated. Results: The quality of life items that showed significant changes between immediately after surgery and 3 months postoperatively were breathing, sleeping, speech, excretion, and discomfort. Low scores were found at 3 months for breathing, sleeping, and distress. There were 31 patients (25.83%) with nose obstruction, 25 (20.83%) with snoring, 12 (10.00%), with pain, 11 (9.17%) with nasal secretions, and 29 (24.17%) with aesthetic dissatisfaction. Conclusion: Closed reduction affected patients' quality of life, although most aspects improved significantly after 3 months. However, it was not possible to rule out deterioration of quality of life due to complications and dissatisfaction after surgery.

Objective: The study aimed to evaluate the changes in mandibular width after sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO) in patients with mandibular asymmetric prognathism using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Methods: Seventy patients who underwent SSRO for mandibular setback surgery were included in two groups, symmetric (n = 35) and asymmetric (n = 35), which were divided according to the differences in their right and left setback amounts. The mandibular width was evaluated three-dimensionally using CBCT images taken immediately before surgery (T1), 3 days after surgery (T2), and 6 months after surgery (T3). Repeated measures analysis of variance was applied to verify the differences in mandibular width statistically. Results: Both groups showed a significant increase in the mandibular width at T2, followed by a significant decrease at T3. No significant difference was observed between T1 and T3 in any of the measurements. No significant differences were found between the two groups (p > 0.05). Conclusions: After mandibular asymmetric setback surgery using SSRO, the mandibular width increased immediately but returned to its original width 6 months after surgery.

Background: Patients with chronic ITP (idiopathic thrombocytopenia) frequently do not require comprehensive medication for daily life. Usually, it had been regarded that postoperative bleeding after a simple or surgical extraction is easily controlled by simple local measures even in patients with ITP. This lack of regular medication usage can sometimes lead practitioners or patients to underestimate the potential life-threatening risk of ITP. There had been no report on postoperative hemorrhage in a patient with ITP related to dental implant surgery. Case presentation: This report presented a life-threatening postoperative hemorrhage after dental implant surgery in an adult with chronic ITP and subsequent emergency management after severe bleeding and airway compromise. Conclusion: The presented case emphasizes the thorough hematological evaluation of the patients even for patients who do not take any specific medications for asymptomatic, chronic ITP.

The effect of preadaptation at low temperature on cryoprotection was studied for Lactobacillus paraplantarum C7, a bacteriocin producer isolated from kimchi. L paraplantarum C7 cells in their log growth phase were incubated at $15^\circ{C}$, $10^\circ{C}$, or $5^\circ{C}$ for 2, 4, and 6 h, respectively, before being frozen at $-70^\circ{C}$. After 24 h of freezing, viable cells were counted after brief thawing. The freezing-thawing cycles were repeated three more times. Cells preadapted at $10^\circ{C}$ or $5^\circ{C}$ before freezing survived better than control cells, but preadaptation at $15^\circ{C}$ did not confer cryoprotection. Chloramphenicol addition did not destroy the cryoprotection, indicating that protein synthesis was not required for the development of cryoprotection. SDS-PAGE showed induction of a 6.5-kDa protein, a major cold-shock protein, in preadapted cells.
