Aim: To compare recurrence rates of large loop excision of the transformation zone (LLETZ) with those of contour-loop excision of the transformation zone (C-LETZ) in the management of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). Materials and Methods: The medical records of 177 patients treated consecutively by LLETZ and C-LETZ for CIN at Rajavithi Hospital between 2006 and 2009 were retrospectively reviewed. Results: Of the 87 women in the C-LETZ group, 2 cases (2.30%) had recurrence compared with 13 cases (14.4%) of the 90 women in the LLETZ group, the higher recurrence rate in the latter being statistically significant (p<0.05). Median times of follow up in the C-LETZ and LLETZ groups were 12 months and 14 months respectively (p>0.05). The C-LETZ group showed less intraoperative bleeding compared to the LLETZ group, but the rate of achievement of single specimens and positive margins were similar in the two groups. Conclusions: The present study demonstrated the superiority of C-LETZ over LLETZ in terms of efficacy; C-LLETZ is associated with a lower recurrence rate and also carries a smaller risk of intraoperative bleeding than LLETZ. The rotating technique still has a potential role in treating precancerous lesions of the cervix.

Adenovirus group consists of over 100 related viruses which have been isolated from respiratory or gastro-intestinal tract of primate, cattle, dog and mice. Approximately 40 serologic types of adenovirus producing a variety of human respiratory and conjunctival infections were identified. Adenoviruses are icosahedral virions containing double-stranded linea DNA. They are 70nm to 90nm in diameter and each of capsid is composed of 252 capsomeres. Several numbers of this group, including types commonly associated with respiratory disease in man, are capable of producing malignant tumors in young hamsters and a few types have been shown to be on-cogenic in young rat. Previous report involving effect of Hormone on replication of adenovirus(9) has been carried out. The present report represents a continuation of previous study. To obtain evidence concerning the effect of caffeine on the transformation, investigation of adenovirus type 12 of this group was undertaken. For practical consideration it was desirable to investigation of the effect of caffeine on the adenovirus type 12-induced transformation in L cell. Results were as follows; 1. Adenovirus type 12-induced transformation was inhibited in the presence of caffeine. 2. Yields of adeoovirus type 12 in L cell were slightly inhibited by treatment of caffeine.

In this paper, some results are obtained from studying convolution on the spectrum of full transformation semigroup and some of its subsemigroups using Cayley's table. The shift of ${\alpha}$ determines its eigenvalues and one-dimensional linear convolution is complex in Symmetric group.

In this paper, we want to find a subgroup HJ(f, $x_{0}$, G) of the extended Jiang subgroup of a transformation group which is contained in Z( $f_{\sigma}$(.sigma.(X, $x_{0}$, G)), .sigma.(X, f( $x_{0}$), G)) and is an extension of the Jiang subgroup J(f, $x_{0}$). This is, if the acting group G is the trivial group {1x}, then this is the Jiang's results.ults..ults.

The $M{\ddot{o}}bius$ homogeneous submanifold in ${\mathbb{S}}^{n+1}$ is an orbit of a subgroup of the $M{\ddot{o}}bius$ transformation group of ${\mathbb{S}}^{n+1}$. In this note, We prove that a compact $M{\ddot{o}}bius$ homogeneous submanifold in ${\mathbb{S}}^{n+1}$ is the image of a $M{\ddot{o}}bius$ transformation of the isometric homogeneous submanifold in ${\mathbb{S}}^{n+1}$.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to quantify phase transformation after hydrofluoric acid (HF) etching at various concentrations on the surface of yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (Y-TZP), and to evaluate changes in bonding strength before and after thermal cycling. Materials and Methods: A group whose Y-TZP surface was treated with tribochemical silica abrasion (TS) was used as the control. Y-TZP specimens from each experimental group were etched with 5%, 10%, 20%, and 40% HF solutions at room temperature for 10 minutes. First, to quantify the phase transformation, Y-TZP specimens (n = 5) treated with TS, 5%, 10%, 20% and 40% HF solutions were subjected to X-ray diffraction. Second, to evaluate the change in bond strength before and after thermal cycling, zirconia primer and MDP-containing resin cement were sequentially applied to the Y-TZP specimen. After 5,000 thermal cycles for half of the Y-TZP specimens, shear bond strength was measured for all experimental groups (n = 10). Results: The monoclinic phase content in the 40% HF-treated group was higher than that of the 5%, 10%, and 20% HF-treated groups, but lower than that of TS-treated group (p < 0.05). The 40% HF-treated group showed significantly higher bonding strength than the TS, 5%, and 10% HF-treated groups, even after thermal cycling (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Through this experiment, the group treated with SiO₂ containing air-borne abrasion on the Y-TZP surface showed higher phase transformation and higher reduction in bonding strength after thermal cycling compared to the group treated with high concentration HF.

In river with bar, the characteristics of its physical conditions have a close relationship with bar morphology. In this paper, a monitoring approach of bar transformation in the Han River Estuary is presented using RADARSAT/SAR Images. The estuary is divided into North and South Korea and its area is blocked by CCL(Civil Control Line). Satellite remote sensing, therefore, is uniquely suited to monitoring bar transformation. Based on SAR signatures for bars, bar transformation is investigated from 2000 to 2005, and monitoring of suspended-silt transportations from terrestrial runoff is tried to understand the morphology during the events of severe rain storm. SAR data did not reveal clearly the bar locations because of most of data acquisitions during high tides from 6.8 m to 9.0 m. Even though the problem, it could be said that in the estuary vegetated area and natural levees are developed well, but bars and shifted after an event like a flood. It is also showed that suspended solids such as silt transported through the estuary could contribute highly to a sedimentation environment around Incheon.

Methods of Riemannian geometry has played an important role in the study of compact transformation groups. Every effective action of a compact Lie group on a differential manifold leaves a Riemannian metric invariant and the study of such actions reduces to the one involving the group of isometries of a Riemannian metric on the manifold which is, a priori, a Lie group under the compact open topology. Once an action of a compact Lie group is given an invariant metric is easily constructed by the averaging method and the Lie group is naturally imbedded in the group of isometries as a Lie subgroup. But usually this invariant metric has more symmetries than those given by the original action. Therefore the first question one may ask is when one can find a Riemannian metric so that the given action coincides with the action of the full group of isometries. This seems to be a difficult question to answer which depends very much on the orbit structure and the group itself. In this paper we give a sufficient condition that a subgroup action of a compact Lie group has an invariant metric which is not invariant under the full action of the group and figure out some aspects of the action and the orbit structure regarding the invariant Riemannian metric. In fact, according to our results, this is possible if there is a larger transformation group, containing the oringnal action and either having larger orbit somewhere or having exactly the same orbit structure but with an orbit on which a Riemannian metric is ivariant under the orginal action of the group and not under that of the larger one. Recently R. Saerens and W. Zame showed that every compact Lie group can be realized as the full group of isometries of Riemannian metric. [SZ] This answers a question closely related to ours but the situation turns out to be quite different in the two problems.
