Purpose: The first objective of this study was to compare the upper midface morpholgy, focusing on the soft tissues, between skeletal Class III maloccusion patients with midfacial depression and the norm. The second objective was to estimate and analyze the change in the upper midface soft tissues following surgical correction with maxillary advancement by Lefort I osteotomy and mandibular setback by bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSRO). Methods: The samples consisted of 34 adult patients (15 males and 12 females) with an average age of 21 years, who had severe anteroposterior discrepancy with midfacial depression. These patients had received presurgical orthodontic treatment and surgical treatment which consisted of simultaneous Lefort I osteotomy and BSSRO. Results: The correlation coefficient between changes in maxillary advancement and changes in Or' (soft tissue orbitale) was 0.599 (p < 0.05). Change in maxillary plane angle and vertical change of the maxilla were not correlated with the change in Or' (p < 0.05). The ratio of soft tissue change in Or' to maxillary advancement was 43.57 %, and 81.54 % in Sn. Regression equations between maxillary movement and Or' were devised. The $r^2$ value was 0.476. Conclusions: The majority of measurements in the upper midface in skeletal Class III maloccusions when compared to the norm, showed significant differences. In Class III malocclusion with midfacial depression, maxillary advancement produces soft tissue change in the upper midface.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the upper airway dimensional change according to maxillary superior movement after orthognathic surgery and to identify the relationship between the amount of maxillary movement and upper airway dimensional changes. Methods: The samples consisted of 24 adult patients (9 males and 15 females) who had a skeletal discrepancy and had received presurgical orthodontic treatment. They underwent Le Fort I superior impaction osteotomy and mandibular setback surgery. Cephalometric x-rays were taken at 3 stages - T0 (before orthognathic surgery), T1 (just or within 2 weeks after orthognathic surgery), T2 (6 months after surgery) Results: 1, Pharyngeal airway space (PAS (R)-nasopharynx) was decreased after surgery (T1) but recovered at 6 months after surgery; 2, Pharyngeal airway space (PAS (NL)-palatal plane) was increased after surgery and at 6 months after surgery; 3, Pharyngeal airway space (PAS (OL)-occlusal plane) was increased at T1 and was decreased at T2; 4, Soft palate thickness was increased at T1 but it became the same or thinner at T2; 5, There is no statistically significant relation between the amount of maxillary superior movement and pharyngeal airway space. Conclusions: These findings suggested that the maxillary superior movement of about an average of $4.40{\pm}1.14 mm$ did not affect upper pharyngeal airway space changes.

Effects of soaking time and particle size on physicochemical properties of nonwaxy rice flour were investigated. Nonwaxy rice grains were soaked at $4^{\circ}C$ for 0, 1, 12, and 24 hr, dried at room temperature, and milled. Resulting flours were passed through 45-mesh ($<355\;{\mu}m$, IL45) and 100-mesh ($<150\;{\mu}m$, IL100) sieves and separated into $<40\;{\mu}m\;and\;40-100\;{\mu}m$ series. IL45 series showed higher amount of large particles ($40-100\;{\mu}m$) than IL100 series. As the soaking time increased, protein and ash contents decreased, and amylose content, water-binding capacity, swelling power, and solubity of nonwaxy rice flours increased. Swelling power and solubility of nonwaxy rice flours also increased between $65-85^{\circ}C$. Water-binding capacity, swelling power, and solubility of IL100 series were higher than those of IL45 series. 12 hr-soaked nonwaxy rice flour pastes showed higher peak viscosity and breakdown but lower setback and viscosity at 95 and $50^{\circ}C$ than 1 hr-soaked ones. X-Ray diffractograms of nonwaxy rice flours were not affected, whereas surface appearance was affected, by soaking time and particle size.

The gelatinization phenomena of bracken root starch were examined by means of the loss of birefringence, degree of digestibility by amylase and X-ray diffraction. These results indicated that gelatinization temperature of the starch was $55{\sim}60^{\circ}$ and over 95% of starch were gelatinized at the temperature between 60 and $70^{\circ}C$. The swelling power of the bracken root starch was much less steeper than that of potato or tapioca starch. Amylograph data on the various starch concentrations showed the pasting temperature of $62{\sim}68^{\circ}$, peak height of $80{\sim}840$ Brabender unit (BU) and peak after cooling to $50^{\circ}C$ of $110{\sim}555\;BU.$. According to the information obtained from amylograph data, the bracken root starch showed low set back. The rate of retrogradation of the starch as tested by Texturometer was slower and faster than that of potato and tapioca starches, respectively.

The purpose of this study was to identify mungbean (Vigna radiata L.) cultivars with appropriate characteristics for labor saving culture (whole crop feeding and combine harvesting), and to investigate seed quality in the southern South Korea. Cultivar Dahyeon exhibited strong lodging resistance, excellent disease tolerance, and greater pod numbers per plant resulting in higher yield. Cultivar Owool and Keumseong, the two most common mungbean cultivars in Korea, exhibited lower yield than Dahyeon due to weaker disease tolerance or lower pod numbers per plant. Cultivar Samgang demonstrated higher seed starch content, Jangan, Nampyeong, and Keumseong exhibited higher crude protein content, and Sohyeon exhibited higher vitexin and isovitexin contents. However, no statistical differences were found among the cultivars in crude fat content. Unsaturated fatty acid ranged from 51.8 to 57.2%, with saturated fatty acid ranging from 36.2 to 40.3%. We detected five unsaturated fatty acids including linoleic acid (36.1 to 38.6%), linolenic acid (10.3 to 14.7%), and oleic acid (2.7 to 4.6%), and seven saturated fatty acids including palmitic acid (28.7 to 30.9%), stearic acid (2.9 to 4.1%), and arachidic acid (1.5 to 3.7%). There were significant differences between the cultivars in amylogram properties of seeds: the Nampyeong cultivar exhibited a lower gelatinization temperature; Dahyeon was higher in peak viscosity and breakdown; and Sohyeon, Nampyeong, and Dahyeon were lower in setback.

In this study, we investigated the starch characteristics of foxtail millet (FM) and sorghum (SG) cultivars grown in Korea. The amylose contents were 29.42 and 6.42% in the Daname and Samdachal FM cultivars, and 9.09 and 11.11% in the Nampungchal and Sodamchal SG cultivars, respectively. The amylopectin polymerization analysis showed that the highest degree of polymerization (DP) was in the range of DP13-24 for all samples, at approximately 60%. The resistant starch content was very low (<0.10%) among the FM and SG cultivars. The starch gelatinization analysis showed low setback values in the Samdachal and Nampungchal cultivars. The gelatinization enthalpy, calculated based on an endothermic reaction, did not differ significantly between the SG cultivars but was significantly higher in the Samdachal FM cultivars than in the Daname FM cultivars. The results of this study might be used as basic data for the development of FM and SG products.

Patients with cleft tip and palate present severe maxillary hypoplasia due to scar of lip and palate, often accompanied by compromised mastication, speech abnormalities. Sometimes maxillary hypoplasia persist even though active orthodontic treatment was done. In theses cases, patients born with cleft lip and palate will be potential candidates for maxillary advancement with bone grafting after growth to correct the functional deformities and improve aesthetic facial proportions. But, maxillary advancement using standard surgical approaches has several limitations : increased relapse tendency after maxillary advancement, necessity of additional bone graft and mandibular setback surgery. Distraction osteogenesis is current treatment modality to overcome these limitations, thus has become popular for treatment of maxillary hypoplasia associated cleft lip and palate, craniosyntosis. Especially, rigid external distraction, contrary to internal device, has advantages : better vector control of osteotomized segment, effective traction of the bony segments, the ease of the application and removal the distraction device. This study showed that relatively successful result could be generated by using rigid external distraction osteogenesis(RED) in the case of cleft lip and palate with severe maxillary hypoplasia, 6 years 7 months old.

The Law Ensuring the Freedom and the Functions of Liability of the Newspapers ("The Newspaper Law") which was passed in the National Assembly on January 1, 2005 is considered as a tremendous setback compared to "the Newspaper Bill" of civil press organizations. Of the two instruments to ensure the editorial freedom, the regulation on the newspaper company ownership share distribution was eliminated and the editorial committee (editorial codes of ethics) became an arbitrary system. That is, the Newspaper Law was criticized as a law of "half-success." However, the Newspaper Law has its own benefit by institutionalizing the establishment of the Korea Commission for the Press, the Press Fund, and the Korea Newspaper Circulation Service for Promoting Newspaper Businesses and by strengthening the criteria to estimate market dominant businesspeople in newspaper market than general markets to ensure the diversity of public opinions. As the Newspaper Law was promulgated, Donga-Ilbo and Chosun-Ilbo submitted the Constitutional Petition against "the Newspaper Law" and the Constitutional Court is expected to give the decision soon. Based on the "Supplements on the Grounds of the Constitutional Petition against the Newspaper Law" ("the Petition"), this paper will examine the main issues of the debates over the Constitutionality of the Newspaper Law.

The quality characteristics of Backsulgi added with red rice flours at different ratios were investigated to apply in the food industry. The moisture, crude protein, crude lipid, ash and amylose contents of the red rice flour samples were 5.3, 9.5, 2.0, 1.1 and 4.7%, respectively. The pasting properties of the non-waxy rice flour mixtures to which red rice flour samples were added were measured by RVA. As the content of red rice flour increased, the values of peak viscosity, final viscosity, breakdown and setback were decreased, while the pasting temperature was not significantly affected. The lightness (L) value of the Backsulgi decreased, but the redness (a) value, moisture content and the degree of gelatinization increased with an increase in the red rice flour samples. The hardness increased, while cohesiveness, springiness and chewiness decreased with the increase in the red rice flour. The overall acceptance of sensory evaluation showed the highest value for 8% red rice (BRWM8). In conclusion, the addition of 8% red rice flours could improve the sensory quality of the Backsulgi as well retrogradations.

Purpose: Maxillary hypoplasia is a common developmental problem of cleft lip and palate. Fair results with distraction osteogenesis have been reported especially when these patients need a large amount of maxillary advancement, instead of orthognathic surgery. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical results with a relatively new distractor, $TS-MD^{(R)}$ (Trans-sinusoidal maxillary distractor, KLS Martin, Tuttlingen, Germany) which was used for the advancement of the maxilla in the cleft patients. Patients and Method: Distraction osteogenesis using $TS-MD^{(R)}$ was performed for four CLP patients (three males and one female) who had maxillary hypoplasia. All patients were over 16 years old. As three patients showed mandibular prognathism as well, bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy for mandibular setback was performed at the same time. After consolidation periods of 4 to 12 weeks, the distraction devices were removed and miniplates were placed for simultaneous internal fixation. Results: Three patients showed a large amount of incisal overbite but one patient did not have sufficient maxillary advancement. Le Fort I osteotomy, maxillary advancement and internal fixation should have been performed for the patient when removing the distraction devices. Different from the $clinician{\box}s$ expectation, the amount of maxillary advancement using $TS-MD^{(R)}$ was not sufficient, although the device has rigid mechanical property. Rotation of maxilla during distraction forward and downward was also observed. Conclusion: Even though the maxillary advancement with $TS-MD^{(R)}$ device could be achieved, the clinical control of some characteristics related with the device was necessary. More clinical studies on $TS-MD^{(R)}$ should be performed.
