Objective: To investigate liver fibrosis, TGF-${\beta}1$ levels and curative effects on hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with small and conventional dose perfusion chemotherapy by transcatheter arterial chemo embolization (TACE). Methods: Thirty-six hepatocellular carcinoma patients not indicated for surgical resection underwent super-selective transcatheter arterial chemoembolization, divided into small dose (n=15) and conventional dose (n=21) chemotherapy groups. Results: With conventional doses, four indices of liver fibrosis focusing on hyaluronate acide (HA), human procollagen type-III (hPC-III), collagen type-Ⅳ (Ⅳ-C) and transforming growth factor-${\beta}l$ (TGF-${\beta}1$) were obviously increased postoperative compared with preoperative (P<0.01); in contrast, with small doses there were no significant differences except for TGF-${\beta}1$. Five year survival demonstrated no significant differences between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion: To hepatocellular carcinoma patients treated by TACE, reducing doses of chemotherapy drugs can reduce progress of liver fibrosis, without impacting on five year survival.

The crew operation scheduling problem is divided into duty generation and duty allocation. The railway crew roster scheduling(duty allocation) is developed monthly for each crew's office, considering the car types and crew's driving ability. However, it is very difficult to make schedules which assign monthly working hours to each crew evenly. The purpose of this thesis is to minimize the differences between each crew's total duty times and make a rostering table. To minimize the differences among monthly working hours of each crews are grouped according to car type and crew's driving ability and a rostering table which could be shared by the group members is developed. Our approach is to apply the techniques of Constraint Programming in order to solve such problems efficiently. This algorithm is suitable to solve optimization problems which involve many complicated constraints. And including the concept of cost, we suggested the model which enable to make the rostering table with a minimum personnel.

PURPOSE. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of different numbers of heat treatments applied to superstructure porcelain on optical, thermal, and phase formation properties of zirconia. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Forty zirconia specimens were prepared in the form of rectangular prism. Specimens were divided into four groups (n = 10) according to the number of firing at heating values of porcelain. Color differences and translucency parameter were measured, and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were performed. Data were analyzed with analysis of variance (ANOVA). RESULTS. There were no statistically significant differences in ∆E, TP, L, a, and b value changes of the zirconia specimens as a result of repetitive firing processes (P>.05). CONCLUSION. Although additional firing processes up to 4 increase peak density in thermal analysis, additional firing processes up to 4 times can be applied safely as they do not result in a change in color and phase character of zircon frameworks.

Purpose: Owing to increased life expectancy, the number of elderly patients with gastric cancer has increased. This study aimed to identify the outcomes of gastric cancer patients aged 80 years or older through comparison of their clinicopathological characteristics, surgical outcomes, and oncologic outcomes. Materials and Methods: Between January 2006 and December 2013, the records of 478 patients who underwent surgery for gastric cancer were retrospectively evaluated. Patients were divided into two groups: patients <80 years old (n=446) and patients ${\geq}80$ years old (n=32). Results: There were no significant differences in sex, body mass index, length of hospital stay, duration of surgery, depth of invasion, nodal metastasis, histologic type, or tumor size between the two groups. However, significant differences were found for the American Society of Anesthesiologist score and the serum albumin level between the two groups. Postoperative morbidity, mortality, disease-free survival, and recurrence rate did not differ between curatively resected patients in the two groups. Conclusions: In elderly patients with gastric cancer, active treatment including radical gastrectomy is necessary.

The study was performed to investigate the thickness of lamina dura of the human teeth in normal condition, which obtained from the intraoral roentgenograms of the 1200 cases taken by bisecting technique. All films were divided into the different ages, the different sexes, and the different location of the different teeth. The obtained results were as follows: 1. With advancing age in both sexes, the lamina dura tends to become thinner as following. (equation omitted) 2. Generally, the alveolar crest is the thickest among the root surfaces, and apex, midroot followed, and the average thickness of the posterior teeth is thicker than that of the anterior teeth. 3. The mean value of the whole maxillary teeth is larger than the one of the whole mandibular teeth. 4. On the whole cases, the differences of male and female is about 0.019㎜, which is not a significant differences.

Bioequivalence test of commercially available rifampicin capsules was performed. Sixteen volunteers were divided into 2 groups and the reference and test drug were given orally (450 mg) by cross-over design. Statistical evaluation of AUC, $C_{max}\;and\;T_{max}$ involved an analysis of variance (ANOVA). The differences of mean value in AUC, $C_{max}\;and\;T_{max}$ between the reference and test drug were within 20% with reference drug. ANOVA showed no significant differences for ‘between group’, ‘drug’ and ‘period’, but not for ‘between subjects’. The power of test $(1-{\beta})\;of\;AUC\;and\;$C_{max}$ was larger than 0.8 and the confidence of bioavailability was $within\;{\pm}20%$. From these results, it was concluded that the two preparations were bioequivalent for AUC and $C_{max}$, but was not for $T_{max}$.
