Objectives : This study was to assess the children's mean number of decayed or filled primary teeth in relation to their mother's oral health behavior and then to increase children's oral health. Methods : The 346 children and their mothers were selected for this study. The children were 4 or 7 years old in the 4 dental clinics in Busan and Kyungnam, Korea. Data were collected by examination on children and self-administrated questionnaire on their mothers. The questionnaire was surveyed mother's oral health behaviour and children experienced dental caries or not and the number of decayed or filled they had were used as outcome variables. Results : 1. The mother's education level affected children's dft index significantly(p<0.05), In the case of tooth brushing method of children, the group with circle teeth wipes shows the low dft index(p<0.01). 2. On the other hand the group with snack as food eaten between meals has high dft index(p<0.001). 3. The group with mother's visiting to dentist within recent 1 year, experience in removing plaque or willing to attend the oral health education show low dft index(p<0.05). The important variables affecting to dft index are experience with oral health education, tooth brushing guidance, replacement of toothbrushes, the kind of food eaten between meals, recent experience of plaque removal and willing to participating in the oral health class. Conclusions : This study showed that the mother's oral health behavior and concern play an important role for the prevention of preschooler's dental caries. Dental health education would be focused on the mothers, expecially for the practice of preventive behavior by preschools themselves.

Objectives : This study is designed to identify the need for an efficient infection control plan in the curriculum of Dept. of Dental Hygiene and encourage dental hygienists to be more attentive to infection control by analyzing their personal protective measures, hand-washing frequency and other factors relating to infection control. Methods : A survey was conducted of 471 dental hygienists in general hospitals, dental clinics and dental hospitals in City of Busan and Gyeongsangnam-do from December 20, 2009 to February 21, 2010. Results : 1. Among those who worked for more than 11 years, personal protection (3.79) and hand-washing frequency (3.90) factors were rated high (p<0.05). 2. When surveyed by workplace, personal protection was high in general hospitals (3.75) while hand-washing frequency was high in dental clinics (3.74). 3. Among those who received infection control education more than three times, personal protection (4.07) and hand-washing frequency (3.80) were high (p<0.05). 4. Personal protection-related factors were general hospital workers, necessity of infection control education and awareness on infectious disease (p<0.05), while factors associated with hand-washing frequency were number of patients per day, whether or not infection control-related class is given at school, necessity of infection control education and awareness on infectious disease (p<0.05). Conclusions : To enhance awareness of infection control, it may be necessary to addan infection control-related class to the school curriculum and provide the necessity of conducting continuous and systematic infection control education through newly entering staff training and education of dental practitioners.

The number of reported traumatic injuries has been increasing in recent years, particularly that of dental trauma in children and adolescents. While the risks associated with dental trauma in this population have been increasingly realized, domestic reports on this issue seem to be insufficient. The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of dental trauma and to evaluate the relevant risk factors and the level of self-recognition. 1,371 adolescents attending middle schools at Yangsan were surveyed via clinical examination and questionnaire; the results were as follows: According to the clinical examination, the overall prevalence of dental trauma was 16.8% with preponderance of males (19.2%) compared to females (13.7%) (p < 0.05). The average number of injured teeth per adolescent with a history of trauma was 1.34. Comparing the prevalence, maxillary central incisors and enamel fracture occupied the highest ranks by tooth type and mode of trauma, respectively. Class II division 1 malocclusion and overjet exceeding 8.0 mm were identified as significant risk factors (p < 0.05). The degree of self-recognition of dental trauma showed a low coincidence rate compared with results of the clinical examination. Males expressed a higher level of satisfaction toward the results of treatment for dental trauma than females (p < 0.05).

In this paper. we design the learning algorithm of LVQ which is used Forward Counter Propagation Networks to improve classification performance of LVQ networks. The weights of Forward Counter Propagation Networks which is between input layer and cluster layer can be learned to determine initial reference vectors by using SOM algorithm and to learn reference vectors by using LVQ algorithm. Finally. pattern vectors is classified into subclasses by neurons which is being in the cluster layer, and the weights of Forward Counter Propagation Networks which is between cluster layer and output layer is learned to classify the classified subclass, which is enclosed a class. Also. kr the number of classes is determined, the number of neurons which is being in the input layer, cluster layer and output layer can be determined. To prove the performance of the proposed learning algorithm. the simulation is performed by using training vectors and test vectors that ate Fisher's Iris data, and classification performance of the proposed learning method is compared with ones of the conventional LVQ, and it was a confirmation that the proposed learning method is more successful classification than the conventional classification.

This research was investigated to check characteristics of stream water quality at four points to analyze the characteristics of stream water in the northeastern part of Puk'ansan National Park during a period of July to November, 1998. The results are as follows. The level of average pH(6.56) and dissolved oxygen($10.22mg/{\ell}$) in the stream water quality on northeastern area in Puk'ansan National Park were at the level of the first class in the quality of river water quality standard. Also, the water in these streams was soft and equilibrated the ration and anion. Electrical conductivity in the stream water was correlated with total amount of ion and number of visitors, but conversely correlated with pH. And the number of visitors influenced stream water quality pollution. The multiple regression equations for electrical conductivity were well explained by pH, Zn and $Mg^{2+}$ statistically.

Objectives Experience of early childhood abuse elevates the risk of developing schizophrenia in later period of life, incidence of psychiatric comorbidity, symptomatic severity and complexity. In this context, we hypothesized that the pattern of psychotropic medication used would reflect this; those with childhood trauma will received more types and higher doses of psychotropic medication. Methods From our database of 102 outpatients diagnosed with Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition (DSM-IV) schizophrenia, we analyzed experiences of childhood trauma measured by the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire-Short Form and types and dose of prescribed psychotropic medication. Results We found significant positive correlations between child sexual abuse and the number of psychotropic medications (p = 0.029) and between child emotional neglect and the number of psychotropic medications other than antipsychotics (p = 0.045). Conclusions This preliminary study suggests that the pattern of psychotropic use may be affected by types of childhood trauma. Further studies will have to shed light on mediating factors such as symptoms or comorbid conditions that lead to prescription of certain psychotropic class.

The relative dissociation constants of 4-substituted bicyclo[2,2,2]octane-1-carboxylic acids, 4-substituted quinuclidines, and 3-and 4-substituted pyridines were collected from a number of sources. In order to understand the actual substituent effects with a combination of inductive effect (σI) and resonance effect (σR) components. The DSP correlation has been employed statistically for each of the p-and m-series. The inductive effect from the m-position was 1.2 times more effective than that from the p-position and the requirement of σR+ for the best-fit led to the conclusion that pyridine system belongs to the σ+-class reactivity. Also compared with results from Yukawa-Tsuno's LArSR treatment and relevant treatment.
