The most accurate method to assess bone level is the histometric measurement. However it causes discomfort in patients and damage to the regenerated tissues. in the present study, we used 4 type regenerative therapies, The present study evaluated the clinical reliability and accuracy of bone probing measurements and radiographic bone level in the assessment of bone level by comparing those results with histometric confirmed bone level. Twentyfour(24) intrabony defects(4${\times}$4mm 1-wall intrabony defects) were surgically created in the mandibular second and fourth premolars of 6 beagle dogs. The control group underwent a conventional flap operation. Experimental group I was treated with calcium phosphate glass only, and while experimental group 2 was treated with GTR and experimental group 3 was treated with calcium phosphate glass and GTR. The subjects were sacrificed 8 weeks after the operation and a bone probing measurements, radiographic measurement and histometric measurement was performed. The correlation between bone probing measurements(BP) and histometric measurement(HL), and radiographic measurement(RL) and histometric measurement(HL) were analyzed with Spearman's rank correlation analysis and the statistical significance with respect to the type of regenerative therapies was analyzed with the Kruskal Wallis test. The coefficient of correlation to HL was 0.73 for RL and 0.90 for BP. The type of regenerative therapies had no significant effect on the difference between HL and other measurements. The results of this study suggests that bone probing measurements most closely represents actual bone level. So bone probing measurements may be a good clinical method for assessing the hone level following any type of periodontal regenerative therapies.

정액 동결 방법들은 지속적으로 향상되어 왔지만 융해 속도에 대한 연구는 여전히 정립되어 있지 않다. 따라서, 본 연구의 목적은 동결 후 융해 속도가 정액의 기능에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 비글견으로부터 채취된 정액은 동결 보존 후 다른 융해 속도 ($37^{\circ}C$/1분 or $70^{\circ}C$/15초)에서 융해 되었다. 융해 후, 운동성, 생존성, 정상 형태율, 형질막 온전성, phosphatidylserine (PS) translocation, 세포내 $H_2O_2$ 수준을 평가하였다. $70^{\circ}C$에서 융해된 정자는 $37^{\circ}C$에서 융해된 정자에 비해 향상된 정자 운동성, 생존성, 정상 형태율, 세포막 온전성, non-PS translocation을 보였으나(P < 0.05), $70^{\circ}C$와 $37^{\circ}C$에서 융해된 실험군간 세포내 $H_2O_2$ 수준에서 유의적인 차이는 나타나지 않았다(P > 0.05). 결론으로, $70^{\circ}C$에서의 융해는 개 정자 동결 후 정자 기능을 증진시켰으며, 적절한 융해 온도는 동결 정자의 기능을 향상시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 난소자궁적출술에 있어서 티타늄(titanium) 클립 적용 시 발생할 수 있는 합병증을 평가하고, 난소혈관과 난소걸이인대의 두 가지 결찰법을 비교하여 합병증을 최소화 할 수 있는 수술법을 찾고자 하였다. 실험을 위해 6마리의 암컷 비글견이 사용되었으며, 세 마리씩 두 그룹으로 나누어 한 그룹은 난소걸이인대와 난소혈관을 함께 결찰 하였고, 나머지 한 그룹은 난소걸이인대를 결찰하지 않고 난소혈관만 결찰 하였다. 두 수술법을 비교하기 위해서 매달 1회씩 1년 동안 복강 X-ray 검사를 통해 적용된 클립의 위치 변화를 확인하였고, 적용된 클립에 의한 염증반응 유무는 혈액검사를 통해 확인하였다. X-ray 검사 상에서 두 그룹의 클립 위치는 큰 변화를 보이지 않았으며, 혈액 검사에서도 거의 모든 수치들이 정상범위에 있었고, 염증과 관련된 임상증상 또한 관찰되지 않았다. 부검을 통한 두 그룹의 클립 포매 형태를 관찰한 결과 난소걸이인대를 결찰한 클립은 복강의 얇은 막으로 두껍게 싸여서 신장 후연에 위치하고 있는 것을 확인하였고, 난소걸이인대를 결찰하지 않은 클립은 얇게 둘러싸인 막 표면에 위치하여 신장의 아래쪽에서 관찰되었다. 이러한 결과는 난소걸이인대가 클립의 움직임을 최소화 할 수 있도록 지지해주는 역할을 하는 것을 의미하며, 따라서 티타늄 클립을 적용하는 난소자궁적출술에서 난소걸이인대를 함께 결찰하는 방법이 합병증 예방에 있어서 보다 적합한 방법으로 생각된다.

A self-microemulsifying drug delivery system (SMEDDS) was developed to increase the dissolution rate, solubility, and ultimately bioavailability of a poorly water soluble drug, lovastatin. SMEDDS was thε mixtures of oils, surfactants, and cosurfactants, which emulsify under conditions of gentle agitation, similar to those which would be encountered in the gastro-intestinal (GI) tract. Various types of self-emulsifying formulations were prepared using four types of oil (Capryol 90, Lauroglycol 90, Labrafil M 1944 CS and Labrafil M 2125), two surfactants (Cremophor EL and Tween 80), and three cosurfactants (Carbitol, PEG 400 and propylene glycol). Thε efficiency of emulsification was studied using a laser diffraction size analyzer to determine particle size distributions of the resultant emulsions. Optimized formulations selected for bioavailability assessment were Carpryol 90 (40%), Cremophor EL (30%) and Carbitol (30%). SMEDDS containing lovastatin (20 mg and 5 mg) were compared to a conventional lovastatin tablet $(Mevacor^{\circledR},\;20\;mg/tab)$ by the oral administration as prefilled hard gelatin capsules to fasted beagle dogs for in vivo study. The arεa under the serum concentration-time curve from time zero to the last measured time in serum, $AUC_{0{\rightarrow}24h}$, was significantly greater in SMEDDS, suggesting that bioavailability increase 130% and 192% by the SMEDDS, respectively. The self-emulsifying formulations of lovastatin afforded the improvement in absolute oral bioavailability relative to previous data of lovastatin tablet formulation. These data indicate the utility of dispersed self-emulsifying formulations for the oral delivery of lovastatin and potentially other poorly absorbed drugs.

The objective of this study was to find out whether the unilateral distraction of mandible has an influence on temporomandibular joint and if it does, how significant the influence is. Four beagle dogs were used in this study. Each dog had two implants placed into the left mandible. The mandible was distracted for 14days with an distraction device as an amount of 0.75mm, twice per day after osteotomy between two implants. Each animals were sacrificed at the second, fourth, sixth and eighth week after the total distraction amount of 10.5mm were gotten. Upon embedding and staining, the specimens were evaluated with a light microscope. The results were as follows. 1. For the second week group, the articular cartilage and osteoid seam of temporal bone and condyle were relatively well maintained. There were not any significant differences between distraction side and non distraction side. 2. For the fourth week group, the periosteal reaction was activated and the articular cartilage and osteoid seam of temporal bone and condyle were severely thickened - especially at posterior portion of distraction side. This findings revealed that the unilateral distraction forces has more influence on distraction side than on non distraction side, and on posterior portion than on anterior portion. 3. For the sixth and eighth week group, the thickness of meniscus in distraction side gradually recovered to the initial level. The thickened articular cartilage and osteoid seam of temporal bone and condyle were decreased in distraction side and showed relatively stable in non distraction side. From this results, we suggest that several considerations are required such as using an occlusal splint, maintaining the stability of bone distraction device and evaluating bone distraction rate to minimize the damages of temporomandibular joint tissues in early stage of distraction side.

Several effective treatment methods and materials have been developed for the treatment of furcation involvement. Currently, the combination of guided tissue regeneration (GTR) and bone grafts is the most commonly prescribed method of treating furcation involved defects. But because these cases often present with poor accessibility, placement of the membrane may be difficult and consequently, clinically impractical. In this study, the alveolar bone healing patterns of adult beagle dogs presenting with alveolar bone destruction treated by one of two methods - treatment using solely bone allografts (BBP(R)), or treatment using bone allografts (BBP(R)) stabilized by a fibrin adhesive - were comp ared. The effects of the fibrin adhesive on the initial stabilization of the newly formed bone, subsequent regeneration of bone, and the feasibility of the clinical application of the fibrin adhesive were analyzed. The results of the study were as follows: 1. Clinical signs of inflammation at the 4-8 week interval were not observed: but signs of mild inflammation were histologically observed at the 4-week interval. 2. Allografts stabilized by fibrin adhesive showed good bone formation, whereas defects treated with only the allograft material showed incomplete alveolar bone regeneration. 3. Allografts stabilized by fibrin adhesive showed a decrease in the amount old bone with a concurrent increase in the formation of new lamellar bone four weeks post-op, whereas defects treated with only the allograft material showed no new lamellar bone formation at the same interval. 4. In detects treated with only the allograft material, the defective area was filled with connective tissue 8-weeks post-op, whereas fibrin adhesive stabilized allografts showed viable connections between the original bone and the newly formed bone, in addition to neovascularization 8-weeks post-op. The results of this study show that concurrent use of fibrin adhesive materials can stabilize the allograft material and aid in new bone formation Although the stability of fibrin adhesives fall short of the results achievable by GTR membranes, in cases presenting with poor accessibility that contraindicate the use of membranes, fibrin adhesive materials provide a viable and effective alternative to graft stabilization and new bone formation.

Purpose: Platelet derived growth factor(PDGF)-BB and bone morphogenetic protein(BMP)-2 are well-known representative growth factors. The purposes of this study were to investigate the effect of rhPDGFBB and rhBMP-2 on osseointegration of titanium implants at periimplant bone defects grafted with hydroxyapatite and to evaluate the feasibility of imaging bone structures around screw-type titanium implant with micro-CT. Materials and Methods: The first molar and all premolars in the mandible region of four beagle dogs were extracted. Following a healing period of 4 months, three $8{\times}8{\times}6mm$-sized bony defects were formed and screw-type titanium implants were placed with hydroxyapatite(HA) block and growth factors; Control group, PDGF group and BMP group. Two months post-implantation, the mandible was harvested. Bone volume(BV), bone-to-implant contact(BIC) and bone mineral density(BMD) were analyzed with micro-CT and histology. Results: According to micro-CT analysis, BV and BMD measures of PDGF and BMP group were significantly higher than control group(BV; PDGF group: $p{\fallingdotseq}0.011$, BMP group: $p{\fallingdotseq}0.006$/BMD; PDGF group: $p{\fallingdotseq}0.020$, BMP group: $p{\fallingdotseq}0.011$) and BIC measures of BMP group were significantly higher than PDGF group($p{\fallingdotseq}0.015$). In histologic evaluation, BIC measures of BMP group was significantly higher than PDGF group($p{\fallingdotseq}0.048$). The values of BV in histologic sections were higher than in micro-CT images and the values of BIC in micro-CT images were higher than in histologic sections. Conclusion: The findings of this experimental study indicates that the use of rhPDGF-BB and rhBMP-2 can increase new bone formation in a large bony defect around titanium implant, and rhBMP-2 is more effective than rhPDGF-BB. Micro-CT can be considered useful for assessment as a rapid and nondestructive method for 3-dimensional measurement of bone healing around implants. Further study is necessary, however, to remove metal artifacts around titanium implant and to standardize the method.

Background: Crestal bone loss known as saucerization is a frequently observed phenomenon. Recent studies have shown that implants with micothreaded crest module reduced the force concentration in the crestal region thus resulting in no or reduced crestal bone loss. This study presents a clinical, histologic, and histometric evaluation of implants with microthreaded crest module and SLA surface. Methods: The implants were placed in the mandible of 5 beagle dogs weighing 10-15kg. Four premolars were bilaterally extracted 8 weeks prior to implant placement. Mucoperiosteal flap was elevated and drilling with increasing diameter was performed under saline irrigation. After countersinking 2 implants were placed in each side resulting in 4 implants per dog. Healing period of 8 weeks was allowed before sacrificing the animals. Histologic preparation was performed for histologic and histometric analysis. Bone to implant contact as well as percentage of bone area inside threads were measured. T-test was used for statistical analysis with pvalue p<0.05. Results: 1. Healing was uneventful without any cover screw exposure. New bone formation around the implants was observed without any inflammatory infiltration. 2. Bone to implant contact in the microthread and thread were 43.90 ${\pm}$ 20.30 %, and 53.19 ${\pm}$ 20.97 % respectively. The overall bone to implant contact was 48.54 ${\pm}$ 20.95 %. 3. Percentage of bone area inside threads were 54.43 ${\pm}$ 10.39 %, and 38.44 ${\pm}$ 16.44 % for the microthread and thread respectively. There was statistically significant difference(p<0.05). The overall percentage of bone area inside threads was 46.67 ${\pm}$ 15.68 %.
