objective to ascertain whether the concept of the therapeutic side is associated with changes in the blind sport mapping that represents the brain function. design Physiological blind spot maps were used as an integer of brain activity before and after acupuncture needling on the meridian point Hapkok(合谷) and Techung(太衝) in the unilateral side decided by double-blind controlled study(20 subjects). setting outpatient clinic participants: adult volunteers intervention twenty subjects were divided into two comparative groups and underwent specific acupuncture therapy on the unilateral side. Blinded examiners obtained reproducible pre and post-acupuncture cortical maps, which were subjected to statistical analysis. main outcome measures Brain activity was demonstrated by reproducible circumferential measurements of cortical hemispheric blind spot maps before and after acupuncture on the unilateral side. in case of acupuncture needling on the ipsilateral side of an enlarged side of bilnd spot, there were reduction of blind spot in 7 cases of 10 subjects, and enlargement in 3 cases. in case of acupuncture needling on the contralateral side of the enlarged side of blind spot, there were enlargement of blind spot in 6 cases of 10 subjects, and reduction in 4 cases. results the significant changes in the blind spots before and after acupuncture were observed Acupuncture needlings on the ipsilateral or contralateral side of an enlarged cortical map were associated with the concept of the therapeutic side traditionally accepted in the oriental medical society. Acupuncture needling on the ipsilateral side of an enlarged blind spot map is associated with the reduction of map, and increaed contralateral cortical activity. Acupuncture needling on the side opposite an enlarged blind spot map is associated with the enlargement of map, and decreased cortical activity. conclusion Reproducible maps of cortical responses can be used to measure the neurological consequences of acupuncture needling. Acupuncture can affect the somatic sensory informations that reach to the contralateral thalamus, and so affect thalamic integration. we found that acupuncture therapy may be associated with an increase or a decrease in brain function depending on the side of acupuncture needling. thus, the traditional concept of the contralateral therapeutic theory in acupuncture approach has the clinical significance in the view of brain function.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis, that the effectiveness of irrigation in removing smear layer in the apical third of root canal system is dependent on the depth of placement of the irrigation needle into the root canal and the enlargement size of the canal. Materials and Methods: Eighty sound human lower incisors were divided into eight groups according to the enlargement size (#25, #30, #35 and #40) and the needle penetration depth (3 mm from working length, WL-3 mm and 9 mm from working length, WL-9 mm). Each canal was enlarged to working length with Profile.06 Rotary Ni-Ti files and irrigated with 5.25% NaOCl. Then, each canal received a final irrigation with 3 mL of 3% EDTA for 4 min, followed by 5 mL of 5.25% NaOCl at different level (WL-3 mm and WL-9 mm) from working length. Each specimen was prepared for the scanning electron microscope (SEM). Photographs of the 3mm area from the apical constriction of each canal with a magnification of ${\times}250$, ${\times}500$, ${\times}1,000$, ${\times}2,500$ were taken for the final evaluation. Results: Removal of smear layer in WL-3 mm group showed a significantly different effect when the canal was enlarged to larger than #30. There was a significant difference in removing apical smear layer between the needle penetration depth of WL-3 mm and WL-9 mm. Conclusions: Removal of smear layer from the apical portion of root canals was effectively accomplished with apical instrumentation to #35/40 06 taper file and 3 mm needle penetration from the working length.

Weeks who is an architect in England suggest that let us consider the hospital architecture as not determined architecture but an undetermined architecture. Because it has been changing unexpectedly. The changing process of hospital architecture is required that it has to involve the new function and be a role model because of variations of environmental factors. For silving the requirements above mentioned, hospital architecture takes the way of appropriateness inner origin form and finally it considers new formation. The 53% of hospital buildings in Korea were built in 1980s. For 30years, these buildings have been not only extended a buildings but also changed in parts of functions and sizes on buildings which are original. The purpose of this study is producing the basic references which suggest solution to face on the changing of hospital building during planning it in the future using by analysis of variation inside the hospital building and grasping of characters in each departments. Each department is analyzed as follows. There is no inner change but only expansion partly by enlargement of building. In the outpatient, there is not only expansion by enlargement of building and but also extension toward other parts and the rate of variation of inside is high. In the diagnostic treatment, there are differences in diagnostic treatment. Surgical suit and diagnostic imaging have been expanded by enlargement than the change of inside. But the others of the departments have been changed by change of inside and also there are sometimes changes of inner walls.

This study was conducted to investigate the development of Gab river-basin which was a part of the farm land enlargement to contribute to the increased production of food. The results were as follows; 1. Gab river has the upper stream which occupy 50 percent in moumtains and the mid-stream in the Daejeon city area, and the downstream in a field which is about 22.9 percent in which farming area per household is 0.82 ha., agricultural population is 76 percent except of Daejeon city. Also, urban enlargement of mid-stream basin and development of industrial area in the lower stream diminish farm land. Consequently, this area should be developed to farm land to increase farming size. 2. There is no possibility to develop farm land in mountains of which (64.9 percent) is forests and in midstream which was constructed river-improvement. But Weonjeong area and Yongcheon area will be effective area. 3. If river banks of Weonjeong area will make straight with cost of construction 195,000,000 won, bank length 6 km will be useless, water will flow smoothly, flood will be prevented, farm land will develop 21.66 ha in which rice will produce annually 81.698 M/T which is about 10,860,000 won. 4. This area has good conditions of development. that is, investment efficiency (B/C) is 1.47 more than 1.00. 5. This area is a multiple purpose development district. The reasons are that there are beautiful mountains and a reservoir to be expected to construct, so it will be a sight seeing district in the vicinity of Daejeon city. 6. If Honam railway double line and river straight construction had executed simultaneously, cost of construction 50,000,000 won would have saved.

치은 섬유종증은 유리 치은과 부착 치은이 점진적으로 증식되는 비염증성 질환이다. 대부분 가족력이 있으며 영구치 맹출과 함께 발병하지만 유치 맹출시기에 드물게 출생 시부터 나타나기도 한다. 본 6세 여아의 경우 태어날 때부터 치은의 일부가 증식되어 있었고 가족력 및 치은 증식을 유발하는 약물을 복용한 병력은 없었다. 구강내 검진 시 섬유성 치은 증식 이 관찰되어 절제 생검을 시행하였고 그 결과 치은 섬유종증으로 진단하였다. 치은 섬유종증의 치료는 치은 절제술과 철저한 구강 위생의 관리이다. 그러나 치료 후 재발성 때문에 치료시기에 대해서는 논란 중이다. 일반적으로 영구치가 모두 맹출 한 이후에 치료할 것을 추천하지만 조기 치료는 구강의 기능 및 환아의 심미적, 심리적인 문제점을 개선시켜 주는 장점이 있다.

EU는 노동이동 자유화를 통해 일자리 창출과 성장을 추구해 왔다. 노동의 자유로운 이동은 노동자에게 새로운 고용기회의 창출과 기술습득의 기회를 제공하여 지속적인 성장을 이끈다. 그러나 경제요소가 불균등하게 분포되어 있는 지리적 공간에서 자유로운 노동이동은 지역간 노동이동의 차별성을 가져오며, 지역적 확대는 새로운 노동이동의 기회를 제공하여 노동이동의 지역적 재분배를 가져온다. EU의 노동이동은 남유럽 국가의 경제성장과 북유럽 국가의 서비스 및 첨단산업화로 남유럽 국가에서 북유럽 국가로의 이동에서 북유럽 국가에서 북유럽 국가로의 이동으로 변화되고 있다. 또한 미숙련 노동자의 이동성은 감소하고 고학력의 전문직 노동자의 이동성은 증가하고 있으며, 이들 고학력 이주자는 북유럽 국가에서 북유럽 국가로 이동하는 경향을 보인다. 반면에 일반 노동자는 남유럽 국가에서 북유럽 국가로, 북부 아프리카에서 남유럽 국가로 이동하는 계층구조를 형성하고 있다.

Vertebral left atrial size (VLAS) is an important indicator to predict myxomatous mitral valve degeneration (MMVD) in dogs. When the caudal margin of cardiac silhouette and the dorsal margin of caudal vena cava (CdVC) could not be seen exactly, another way to evaluate VLAS is needed. The objective of this study was to assess whether a new modified VLAS (m-VLAS) could be used as an indicator to predict MMVD in 57 small breed dogs with MMVD. The m-VLAS was also used to classify American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine staging groups and left heart enlargement confirmed with echocardiograph (EchoLHE) groups. The m-VLAS was measured as the distance from the ventral aspect of the carina to the dorsal aspect of the intersection of the cardiac silhouette and the farthest LA caudal margin, not the CdVC, followed by drawing the same line beginning at the cranial edge of T4. Based on VLAS values and m-VLAS values measured for dogs with MMVD, correlations between these values and left heart enlargement groups were then evaluated. There were significant differences in both the VLAS and the m-VLAS between EchoLHE groups. The AUC of the ROC curve of the m-VLAS to detect EchoLHE was higher than that of the VLAS. The optimal cutoff value for the m-VLAS was >2.7, which had a higher specificity (86.84%) than the VLAS specificity (71.05%). This study reveals that a new m-VLAS is a more specific indicator than the VLAS for predicting left side heart enlargement in small breed dogs. Therefore, the m-VLAS can be used as a clinically useful radiographic measurement alternative to or better than the VLAS.

Objectives: To evaluate postoperative pain after endodontic treatment of necrotic teeth using large intentional foraminal enlargement (LIFE). Materials and Methods: The sample included 60 asymptomatic necrotic teeth (with or without chronic apical periodontitis), and a periodontal probing depth of 3 mm, previously accessed and referred to perform endodontic treatment. After previous procedures, the position and approximate size of the apical foramen (AF) were determined by using an apex locator and K flexo-files, respectively. The chemomechanical preparation was performed with Profile 04 files 2 mm beyond the AF to achieve the LIFE, using 2.5 mL of 2.5% NaOCl at each file change. The filling was performed by Tagger's hybrid technique and EndoFill sealer. Phone calls were made to all the patients at 24, 48 and 72 hours after treatment, to classify postoperative pain. Statistical analysis was performed by different tests with a significance level of 5%. Results: Age, gender, periradicular status and tooth type did not influence postoperative pain (p > 0.05). Only 1 patient (1.66%) reported severe pain after 72 hours. Moderate pain was reported by 7, 4 and 3 patients after 24, 48 and 72 hours, respectively (p = 0.0001). However, paired analyses showed a statistically significant difference only between 24 and 72 hours (p = 0.04). Sealer extrusion did not influence the postoperative pain (p > 0.05). Conclusions: Acute or moderate postoperative pain was uncommon after endodontic treatment of necrotic teeth with LIFE.

배경: 대동맥판막 치환술 후 발생하는 환자-인공판막 부조화(patient-prosthesis mismatch, PPM)가 환자의 경과에 어떠한 영향을 주는가에 대해서는 아직 논란의 여지가 있다. 이 연구는 대동맥판막 치환술 후 PPM이 발생한 환자군과 PPM을 예방하기 위해 대동맥판륜 확장술을 시행한 환자군 간의 수술 결과와 경과를 비교해 보았다. 대상 및 방법: 1996년 1월부터 2006년 2월까지 stent가 있는 조직판막 혹은 기계판막을 이용하여 대동맥판막 치환술을 시행 받은 627명의 성인 환자를 연구대상으로 하였다. 치환된 대동맥판막의 indexed effective orifice area (iEOA)가 $0.85cm^2/m^2$ 이하인 경우를 PPM으로 정의 하였고 $0.65cm^2/m^2$ 이하는 심한 PPM으로 정의하였다 PPM은 103명(16.4%, PPM군)에서 발생하였고 심한 PPM은 11명(1.8%, SPPM군)에서 발생하였다. 동일한 연구 기간 동안 대동맥판륜 확장술을 시행 받은 환자(Annular Enlargement군, AE)는 모두 21명이었다. 결과: AE군의 평균 iEOA는 PPM군보다 더 컸다($0.95\;vs.\;0.76cm^2/m^2,\;p=0.00$). AE군은 PPM군보다 심폐바이패스 시간, 심장허혈 시간 및 수술 시간이 더 길었으며 수술 사망률이 더 높은 경향을 보였다(14.3% vs. 2.9%, p=0.06). 술 후 가장 최근에 시행한 심초음파 검사에서 SPPM군은 대동맥판막 판구 압력차(최고/평균)가 AE군보다 더 높게 나타났으며(72/45 mmHg vs. 38/25 mmHg, p=0.02/0.06), 대동맥판막 관련 문제(대동맥판막 재치환술 혹은 심한 대동맥판막 협착)가 더 많이 발생하였다(45.5% vs. 9.5%, p=0.03). 또한 대동맥판막 관련 문제가 발생한 환자들에서는 좌심실 심근량 감축(regression)을 관찰할 수 없었다. 결론: 협소한 대동맥판륜을 가진 환자에서 대동맥판륜 확장술의 시행여부는 대동맥판륜 확장술 자체의 위험도와 환자 상태 및 동반 질환 등을 함께 고려하여 신중히 결정하여야 한다. 하지만 대동맥판막 치환술 후 심한 PPM이 예상되는 환자에서는 대동맥판륜 확장술이 대안으로 이용될 수 있다.
