The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the mandibular positions and the habitual mandibular opening and closing movements in normal subject using the newly developed electric mandibular movement analyzing device(Saphon Visi-Trainer C-II.Tokyo Shizaisha Inc. Tokyo, Japan) One of the cause of the temporomandibular joint dysfunction has been considered abnormal mandibular positions especially the abnormal deviation between intercuspal position from retruded contact position. The subjects in this study were consisted of 55 young adults in 20 decade who had normal occlusion, no prosthodontic restorations and no history of disturbance or pain on temporomandibular joint and masticatory muscles. The results were as follows : 1. The deviations of intercuspal position from retruded contact position were 0.23mm in frontal view and 1.02mm in sagirral view. 2. The larger the deviation of intercuspal position from the retruded contact position, the higher the proportion of uncoincidence of the habitual nandibular closing and opening trajectories was, and the proportion was higher in sagittal view than frontal view, 10mm opening than 5mm opening. 3. Correlation between the deviation of intercuspal position from retruded contact position and uncoincidence rate of the habitual mandibular closing and opening trajectories was higher in frontal view than sagittal view.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to define the relation of the degree of menton deviation and 3-D CT (computerized tomography) measurements of the glenoid fossa and the mandible, which are considered to have an influence on menton deviation. Methods: The CT images were obtained in 60 adults and these were transmitted to a computer and reconstructed using computer software. According to the degree of the menton deviation, which was measured on the posteroanterior cephalogram, the subjects were divided into the menton deviated group (30 adults) and the symmetry group (30 adults). A total of 11 measurements that might have an effect on menton deviation were determined and these were measured in the right and left sides using the function of 3-D measurement in the computer program. The 11 measurements consist of 6 measurements in the glenoid fossa (vertical position of the glenoid fossa and articular eminence, the sagittal position of the glenoid fossa and articular eminence, the depth of the glenoid fossa, and the anterior angle of the glenoid fossa), and 5 measurements in the mandible (ramus length, frontal ramal inclination, lateral ramal inclination, body length, body height). Results: The comparison of the differences between the menton deviated and symmetry groups and correlation analysis on the degree of menton deviation were carried out. The results of comparison of the right and the left difference between the menton deviated and symmetry groups showed that the vertical position and depth of the glenoid fossa were significantly increased in the menton deviated group. Conclusion: The results of the present study show that consideration of the shape and position of the glenoid fossa is necessary for making the diagnosis and administering proper treatment in facial asymmetry patients and especially growing patients.

It is very common to use the powered hand tools to enhance the productivity in various types of industry. But the use of the powered hand tools could cause health problems such as cumulative trauma disorders and vibration white fingers. In this study. the effects of hand-arm vibration and anatomical hand position on localized muscle fatigue were analyzed. Eight healthy male subjects volunteered for the study. Vibration frequencies of 0, 40, 80, 100, 150, and 200Hz and hand position of flexion and ulnar deviation were selected for the independent variables of the experiment. Median frequency shifting was used as a dependent variable. The results indicated that at the vibration frequency of 40Hz and accelation of 2g, the muscle fatigue was the greatest. For the hand position. there was significant difference between neutral and flexion. and neutral and ulnar deviation, but no difference between flexion and ulnar deviation. These results could be applied in designing powered hand tools to minimize the health problems.

환자의 기능평가를 위하여 중요한 자세균형의 유지는 압력중심(COP) 의 동요 신호를 직접 연속적으로 계측함으로써 가능하다. COP 신호로부터 다양한 종류의 자세안정도지표를 산출할 수 있으나 임상적으로 유용한 최소한의 지표종류로는 규명된 바 없다. 이에 본 연구에서는 인체가 서있는 상태의 정적자세를 유지할 때 압력중심 신호로부터 자세안정도지표를 산출하여 분석함으로써 임상적 유용성이 가장 큰 지표의 종류를 결정하고자 하였다. 양발을 편안히 벌리거나 (FS), 모두 모으거나(FT), 한쪽발 만으로(RL, LL)서있는 자세에 대해서 양쪽 눈을 뜨거나(EO) 감은(EC)8가지 정적자세를 취하며 30초간 자세균형을 유지시켰다. 자세형태에 따른 안정도의 척도로서 신체가 지면을 차지하는 면적(S)을 사용하였다. 자세안정도지표로서 1)position deviation, 2) position turn 3) velocity의 3가지로 분류할 수 있는 18가지 지표를 설정하였다. 피검자는 20, 30, 40 ,50 대 정상인을 연령대 별로 각각 남·녀 5명씩 고르게 총 40명을 선정하여 실험하였다. 자세안정도지표 모두가 S와 비교적 높은 유의한 상관관계를 보인 바 인을 연령대 별로 각각 남·녀 5명씩 고르게 총 40명을 선정하여 실험하였다. 자세안정도지표 모두가 S와 비교적 높은 유의한 상관관계를 보인바 (상관계수=0.6∼0.8, P<0.0001), S가 자세형태를 정량화 할 수 있음을 입증하였다. 모든 지표들에 있어서 시각의 영향이 뚜렷하였으며 특히 자세가 불안해질수록 상대적으로 시각의 영향이 두드러졌다. 그러나 시각의 영향의 지표들간의 차이는 없었다. 반면 노화(연령증가)에 따른 안정도지표의 변화는 미미하였으며 위의 3가지 안정도지표분류 중 position deviation 지표만이 통계적으로 유의한(P<0.05) 상관관계를 보였다. 따라서 정적자세유지시 안정도지표로는 position deviation 지표들이 가장 예민함을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 position deviation 지표들과 연령과의 상관계수는 0.5이하로서 매우 느슨한 상관관계를 보였으며, 연령증가에 따른 자제불안정도의 증가도 매우 작아서 그 임상적 응용가능성은 의문시되었다. 또한 위에서 제시한 3가지의 분류의 지표중 position turn 과 velocity 지표의 의미에 관해서는 향후 심층적인 연구가 필요한 것으로 판단되었다.

Various changes in ocular position are possible during general anesthesia as opposed to the awakening state. However, unexpected ocular deviation under general anesthesia is a disconcerting event as it can lead to difficult complications intraoperatively. To date, sudden fixed upward ocular deviation has been rarely reported previously. This phenomenon was observed in an 8-year-old boy during strabismus surgery. Suddenly fixed upward ocular deviation occurred when the speculum was inserted into the right eye. When the eyeball was pulled down, using forceps, there was some resistance, such as contracture of superior rectus. The eyeball sprang back into the upward position when the forceps was released. These changes could hamper the good exposition of the surgical field, leading to significant intraoperative difficulties and complications. Surgeons should be aware of this possibility, despite general anesthesia; if it occurs, proceed with the surgery as planned preoperatively, and both ophthalmic and anesthetic interventions should be used to solve this problem.

This test was performed on the hydraulic automatic gauge control(AGC) system of adaptive mass flow method. Fundamental purpose of this study are performance evaluation of this AGC system under the actual rolling condition. It was concluded that the response of AGC system depends on the dynamic characteristics of a reel motor or roll position. The test results are as follows : 1) The control method of reel motor current is better than than of the roll position as AGC system. 2) The more steel strip thickness of delivery side is thick, the larger the gauge deviation is large, and the more it is thin, the larger the gauge deviation rate is large. 3) Because the gauge deviation is large at acceleration and deceleration speed than steady speed, so AGC system is better to adopt over 50m/min. By applying this AGC system, not only the accurary in strip thickness were improved but also productivity was improved dramatically.

The author studied on the effect of TMJ sounds to the patterns and ranges of mandibular border movements in horizontal plane with Pantograph (Denar Corp.). For study, 19 patients with TMJ sounds only and 16 students with no TM disorder were selected and classified as experimental group and control group, respectively. The subject performed right lateral movement, left lateral movement, and forward movement. Each movement were performed 3 times and the movement trajectory obtained with mechanical pantograph were observed for accordance of centric relation position, reproducibility and/or restriction of lateral movement paths, deviation of protrusive path in anterior table, restriction of protrusive condylar movement path in posterior horizontal table, presence of Fisher angle in posterior vertical table. And pantographic reproducibility Index (PRI) were obtained with pantronic by the same movement method as in the mechanical pantograph record. The obtained results were as follows : 1. In experimental group, PRI scores in those who show accordance of centric relation position were 14.4, and were 26.53 in those who did not show accordance of centric relation position. However, the PRI scores of the two subgroups show no statistically significant difference in control group. Therefore, in experimental group, the capability of accordance of centric relation position affected largely the PRI scores than in control group. 2. Deviation of protrusive path was opposite to the affected side in experimental group, and was left side in control group. 3. Restriction side of condylar movement in protrusion was ipsilateral to the deviation side in experimental group, but in control group, restriction side was not related to the deviation side. 4. PRI scores in experimental group were 23.2 (moderate dysfunction category), and in control group, were 17.8 (slight dysfunction category). The PRI scores in control group, however, implies that the evaluation of temporomandibular disorders by the PRI scores only may be unreasonable.
