With the development of technology, many changes have emerged in how consumers acquire information without restrictions on their location and time. As changes and interest in digital platforms increase, beauty industry applications are being developed in order to attract customers. Therefore, this study has provided the empirical data necessary for the development and advancement of beauty applications in the future by analyzing preferences for makeup applications according to age. The method of this study involved searching for makeup applications that had been downloaded more than 100 million times through the Google Play Store between October 11, 2020 to November 3, 2020. Four applications were identified: YouCma Makeup, YouCam Perfect, Beauty Plus, and Sweet Snap. The surveyed functions were tested on 100 people in their teens, 20s, 30s, and 40s, with a similar profile of 100 people in their teens, 20s, 30s, and 40s surveyed from January 3, 2022 to April 23, 2022. The functional preferences of the application were investigated, and the results were analyzed through frequency analysis. The results are as follows: the application that received the greatest preference for features by age was YCM, which was found to have subdivided functions that provide users a wider range of choices and more detailed work when compared to other applications which enable photo retouching.

The aim of this case report was to describe an innovative orthodontic treatment method that combined surgical and orthodontic techniques. The novel method was used to achieve a positive result in a case of moderate crowding by employing a computer-guided piezocision procedure followed by the use of clear aligners. A 23-year-old woman had a malocclusion with moderate crowding. Her periodontal indices, oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL), and treatment time were evaluated. The treatment included interproximal corticotomy cuts extending through the entire thickness of the cortical layer, without a full-thickness flap reflection. This was achieved with a three-dimensionally printed surgical guide using computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing. Orthodontic force was applied to the teeth immediately after surgery by using clear appliances for better control of tooth movement. The total treatment time was 8 months. The periodontal indices improved after crowding correction, but the oral health impact profile showed a slight deterioration of OHRQoL during the 3 days following surgery. At the 2-year retention follow-up, the stability of treatment was excellent. The reduction in surgical time and patient discomfort, increased periodontal safety and patient acceptability, and accurate control of orthodontic movement without the risk of losing anchorage may encourage the use of this combined technique in appropriate cases.

PURPOSE. This in vitro study aimed to evaluate the surface characteristics of a full veneer crown fabricated chairside (CS) from a (Y, Nb)-TZP zirconia block in response to conventional zirconia grinding and polishing. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Zirconia crowns (n = 40) were first prepared and divided into two groups of materials: Labside (LS) and CS, after which each specimen went through a five-step grinding and polishing procedure. Following each surface treatment, surface characteristics were analyzed using confocal laser microscopy (CLSM), average surface roughness (Ra) values were processed from the profile data through Gaussian filtering, and X-ray diffraction pattern analysis was performed to evaluate the monoclinic (M) phase content. Then, a representative specimen was selected for field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), followed by a final analysis of the roughness and X-ray diffraction of the specimens using the independent t-test and repeated measures analysis of variance (RM-ANOVA). RESULTS. In every group, polishing significantly reduced the Ra values (P < .001). There was no significant difference in Ra between the polished state CS and LS. Furthermore, CLSM and FE-SEM investigations revealed that even though grain exposure was visible in CS specimens throughout the as-delivered and ground states, the exposure was reduced after polishing. Moreover, while no phase transformation was visible in the LS, phase transformation was visible in CS after every surface treatment, with the M phase content of the CS group showing a significant reduction after polishing (P < .001). CONCLUSION. Within the limits of this study, clinically acceptable level of surface finishing of (Y, Nb)-TZP can be achieved after conventional zirconia polishing sequence.

막걸리는 고려시대 이후 제조된 우리나라 전통술이다. 본 연구는 막걸리의 유기산 분석과 생리 기능활성을 평가하고자 수행하였다. 막걸리의 유기산 분석 결과, 막걸리는 유기산 중에서 유산균에 의한 대사 산물인 lactic acid를 가장 많이 함유하고 있었으며 시판 막걸리에 따라 다양한 유기산 조성을 나타내고 있었다. 막걸리의 항비만 효과를 전지방세포인 3T3-L1 세포주를 사용하여 평가한 결과, 대조군 대비 막걸리는 전지방세포 분화를 저해하였으며, 특히 $100{\mu}g/mL$의 농도에서 40-70% 수준으로 분화를 억제하였다. 또한 혈관신생 억제 효과와 항염증 활성을 관찰하기 위하여, 각각 CAM assay와 LPS를 처리하여 염증반응을 유발한 murine macrophage RAW264.7 세포주에서 NO를 정량하였다. 그 결과, 대부분의 막걸리는 50% 이상의 혈관신생 억제 효과를 확인하였다. 또한 농도의존적으로 NO의 생성량을 유의적 수준으로 저해하였다. 이런 결과를 종합할 때, 막걸리는 항비만, 혈관신생 억제, 그리고 항염증 활성을 가지고 있으며, 이는 막걸리의 누룩미생물 균총의 2차 대사산물의 효과에 기인한다고 생각된다.
