Although total meniscectomy had been performed as a treatment of meniscal tear, many published articles reported progression of the degeneration process in the articular cartilage and development of the osteoarthritis after meniscectomy. With the increased knowledge of the biomechanical properties of the meniscus, meniscal repair has been performed increasingly to maintain the important functions of the meniscus. Outside-in, inside-out, all-inside technique have been used as meniscal repair methods. In this review, indications, operative technique, and outcomes of the all-inside meniscal repair are discussed.

Purpose: This study examined clinical cure and patients' satisfaction degrees by factors influencing surgical operation results, after arthroscopic inside to out repair as a nonabsorbable suture material, in case of meniscal rupture. Materials and Methods: Materials were 110 cases of 95 patients who could make paces for over 12 months from August 1999 to June 2002. Results were evaluated by clinical cure and subjective satisfaction degrees. This study, concerning those results, analyzed age, term from taking pictures to taking surgical operation, rupture section, rupture length, rupture types, lesion of articular-cartilage, and effects of anterior cruciate ligament operation accompanied. Results: 84 cases(76%) were clinically cured, 98 cases(89%) were subjectively satisfied. In case of accompanying anterior cruciate ligament rupture, and in case that rupture length was below 2 cm, rates of clinical cure and patients subjective satisfaction were significantly high. In case of complex or degenerative rupture, patients satisfaction rates were higher when comparing with clinical cure rates. Conclusion: Various sutures are possible as well as available in case of arthroscopic meniscal inside to out repair using nonabsorbable suture material. It can be concluded that patients age is not absolte consideration in determining the suture of meniscus. In cases of complex rupture, degenerative rupture, ruptures companied by joint-cartilage injuries, considerate consideratin need be paid to choose patients and operations.

Purpose: To report modified technique of inside-out suture in repair of tear of postero medial corner of medial meniscus. Operative technique: Arthroscope is placed through anterolateral portal. Suture hook is delivered through anteromedial portal. By rotating the suture hook, it penetrates the inner portion of the torn meniscus from femoral surface to tibial surface of the meniscus for vertically oriented suture. A PDS suture is delivered through the lumen of suture hook, and the suture hook is withdrawn. The both ends of the suture are retrieved through anteromedial portal by a retriever, either grasper or crochet hook.A Zone-specific cannula is positioned below the inferior surface of the meniscus through anterolateral portal. The Looped Needle designed by the authors is delivered through the lumen of the Zone-specific cannula. The suture end of the tibial surface is placed in the loop of the Looped Needle and pulled out to the surface of posteromedial joint line. The suture end of the femoral surface is pulled out in same manner. A transverse skin incision of 1cm size is made adjacent to pulled out suture and the suture is tied. Discussion: Even though modified inside-out suture technique requires longer operation time than conventional inside-out technique, it provides vertically oriented suture and good tissue coaptation. The authors recommend this modified inside-out suture technique to be good alternative in repairing tear of the posteromedial corner of medial meniscus.

Inside Out(2015) and The Spiriting Away of Sen And Chihiro(2001) have similar narrative structures and scenes. This paper aimed to compare and analyze the intermedial relationship between the two animations. The result of the study showed intermedial relationship between Inside Out and The Spiriting Away of Sen And Chihiro, which was produced and released about 14 years before. However, it was hard to say the former referred to the system of the latter and adopted it. When seen from the narrative structure of exposition, development, crisis, climax, resolution, in Inside Out, various motifs of The Spiriting Away of Sen And Chihiro were restructured, creating a new feeling. This study considered intermediality as something that a single medium overcomes limitations and is transformed through materials, or media, and an important way to provide consumers with contents of better quality, and using Rajewsky's frame of analyzing intermediality, compared and analyzed the relationship of the two animations.

Propagation phenomena of nonlinear pressure waves in a bubbly mixture are studied. The governing equations for a bubbly mixture are derived heuristically and energy equation is incorporated with other governing equations to take thermal effects into consideration inside the bubble. This non-isothermal condition of the bubble inside is especially important when high amplitude pressure waves are treated. Keller's equation is adapted for the bubble dynamics as practical problem. Some numerical simulations are carried out for the shock tube problem using a computer program based on the above model. A comparison with experimental results of Noordzij and van Wijngaarden shows that the structure of the wave in the shock tube experiment seems to be much more significantly affected 요 the complex heat transfer phenomena inside the bubbles than by the relative translational motion between bubbles and surrounding liquid.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the corneal topographical changes associated with the wearing of everted silicone hydrogel soft lenses. Methods: The shape and fluorescein pattern of everted silicone hydrogel lenses were investigated. The subject wore the silicone hydrogel everted lenses overnight for 8 hours. Objective refractive error and corneal shape were evaluated at baseline, 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7 days after lens wearing and 1,2,3, and 4 days after discontinuation of lens wear. Results: The Fluorescein pattern of everted silicone hydrogel lenses was similar to the reverse geometry lenses with pressure profile. Objective refractive error(sphere power) and corneal refractive power were decreased and corneal shape had changed during the everted silicone hydrogel lenses wear and recovered during the 4 days of discontinuation. Subject experienced no discomfort associated with the everted silicone hydrogel lenses. Conclusions: It appears that everted silicone hydrogel lenses are capable of inducing significant changes in corneal topography, with overnight wear. Further study must be done to help understand these changes to develop a predictable and effective way of using soft contact lenses for corneal reshaping.

Orthodontic seamless bands are frequently used in pediatric dentistry. In the process of seating bands with luting cement coated inside, not uniformed coating might bring about various problems such as enamel decalcification and/or gingivitis, and this clinical trial was made to review several band-seating methods to exclude these risks. One kind of band luting cement and one size of seamless bands were used on the resin replicas of an extracted maxillary and mandibular 1st molar with three different seating methods 1. seating the band with the luting cement coated only inside the band, 2. seating the band with the luting cement coated inside the band and on axial surfaces of the teeth, 3. seating the band with the adhesive tape on the occlusal opening of the band and the luting cement coated only inside the band. After cement was completely set, bands were peeled off from the teeth and the status of cement coating was evaluated. With this experiment more uniformed coating of the luting cement was found in latter two groups. These methods are thought more appropriate to almost completely rule out the risk of unevenly coated cement beneath the bands by conventional method.

This study was conducted to provide a method for fire suppression in a central area inside the roof of a wooden cultural property using a gas extinguishing apparatus, which is used as one of fire suppression methods with view to preventing valuable wooden properties inherited from ancestors from being destructed by fire. For a wooden property, it is very difficult to suppress fire when combustion spreads to a central area inside its roof, so it is impossible to put out a fire without destructing it. Such a fire fighting apparatus as a sprinkler, etc., installed in modern structures, is very effective, but the possibility of damaging a cultural property is highly probable after installment and operation, which leads to its low adaptability to a wooden property. Thus, the necessity of developing a fire suppress ion apparatus was raised to minimize the said problem and to obtain the desired results, and the need of making a plan on the installment was also raised based on the results of a test whose validity was proven. The central area inside a roof is a traditional - architectural style which is found in Korean wooden structures only, so it is impossible to discover similar cases in foreign countries. For this reason, this study was conducted to verify the effectiveness by developing a fixed fire suppression apparatus designed considering the speed and effectiveness in fire suppression. This study was sequentially carried out in the following steps. First, a frame for this study was made and the specific plan on a fire suppression method was established. Then, a fire suppression apparatus was installed. In the first step, the effectiveness for fire suppression was tested by installing valve open - punched - main water pores, and in the second step, the same effectiveness was tested by valve opened - punched - injection ports. For a wooden property similar to "Sungnyemun"(Gate of Exalted Ceremonies), its central area of the roof decides whether the fire suppression is successful or not, so the opinions on how to put out a fire were presented in this study, and thus the objective data to establish a method on fire suppression in a wooden structure(cultural property) was secured. Lastly, a scientific verification in the effectiveness for fire suppression measures was presented by installing a gas - fixed fire suppression apparatus.

Recently the technological advance in the hardware dealing with multimedia data as well as the explosive increase of the volume of multimedia data bring about new interest in the use of multimedia presentations in many application domains. To use multimedia presentations efficiently, the integration of multimedia presentations into DBMS is necessary. This paper presents a multimedia presentatation query language based on contents and query processing techniques. Presently, multimedia presentation authoring tools denote a multimedia presentation using a presentation graph which is a DAG. A Node in the graph is a same type of media stream and edges denote a play-out order and a synchronization way among nodes. The contents of presentations graphs are the information of each stream, the sequential order of the information inside each stream and the play-out order among the streams. GCalculus/S is a calculus-based query language and can deal with the contents of a presentation graph and physical characteristics of multimedia data. It expresses the sequential order of information inside each stream and the play-out order of streams of a presentation graph using temporal operators Next, Connected and Until. O-Algebra, which is object algebra, is extended to process GCalculus/S queries.
