The aim of the present study was to compare the strength, balance, and flexibility across two age groups (older adults vs. young adults). The isokinetic muscle function, ankle ROM, trunk forward flexibility, stability, and antropometric data for the elderly and 46 university students were collected. The results indicated that male older adults possessed relatively low flexibility (2.97cm) among the groups and showed better stability in the right foot than in the left foot and $35^{\circ}$ of plantar flexion ROM, which was not in the normal range. Their peak strength at the knee joint was below 50% of their counterpart. They revealed a hamstring deficit of 18.55%, ankle eversion deficit of 23.08%, and ankle inversion deficit of 19.19%. The results indicated that female older adults possessed comparable flexibility compared to female young adults. The reciprocal muscle strength ratio of both knees was under 50%, and the deficit was 14.32% (extension) and 19.73% (flexion). The ankle plantar flexion peak torque was approximately 62% (left) and 73% (right) of WS's. The ankle dorsi flexion deficit was 25.05% and the plantar flexion was 26.86%. The eversion deficit was 19.97% and the inversion was 21.09%. These results will be significant in establishing an elderly fitness enhancement program and policy.

$^{99m}Tc-dimercaptosuccinic$ acid (DMSA) 주사후 일정시간에 측정한 절대적 신섭취량은 기능이 살아있는 신피질량과 관계있다. 소아의 신기능은 출생후 계속 성숙되어 생후 약 $1\sim2$년에 성인의 기능에 도달하는데 DMSA섭취도 성인과는 다른 양상을 보일 것으로 기대되며 신질환에서 절대적 신섭취율의 평가는 연령을 고려해야 할 것이다. 저자들은 DMSA 스캔을 시행한 소아 환자를 대상으로 스캔상 피질 결손이 없으며 양측신의 섭취율이 비슷하고 혈중 크레아티닌치가 정상인 경우를 대조군으로 하여 연령별 DMSA의 절대적 신섭취율을 구하였고 방광요관역류를 가진 환아를 대상으로 DMSA스캔을 시행하고 신섭취율을 조사하였다. 1) 대조군은 모두 65명으로 좌우측 신섭취율의 유의한 차이는 없었으며 연령에 따라 2세경에 플라토에 도달하였는데 한쪽 신장의 평균섭취율은 3개월 미만이 $14.5{\pm}3.1%$ ID, 3개월에서 6개월 미만이 $17.2{\pm}2.1%$ID, 6개월에서 1년 미만이 $18.4{\pm}1.3%$ID, 1년에서 1년6개월 미만이 $19.3{\pm}1.1%$ID, 1년 6개월에서 2년 미만이 $21.9{\pm}2.0%$ID, 2세이상 15세이하가 $20.1{\pm}0.6%$ID였으며 전체 평균섭취율은 $19.4{\pm}0.5%$ID (injected dose, $mean{\pm}S.E.$)였다. 2) 방광요관역류를 가진 환아는 55명 (일측성 56명, 양측성 29명)으로 109신장을 대상으로 하였다. 방광요관역류의 정도와 피질결손의 수와는 대체로 비례관계가 있었으나 방광요관역류가 없으면서 피질결손이 있는 경우가 25신장중 2예 (8%)였으며, 방광요관역류가 있는 84신장중 27예 (32.1%), 이중에서 방광요관역류가 3도 이상인 62신장중 13예 (21%)에서는 피질결손이 없었다. 3) 이환신의 DMSA 섭취율을 연령에 따른 대조군의 섭취율에 대한 비(섭취율비)로 나타내면 한쪽에 역류가 있을 때 이환신의 경우 $0.55{\pm}0.06$, 정상신의 경우 $1.34{\pm}0.05$이었으며, 양쪽에 역류가 있을 때는 평균 $0.82{\pm}0.08$ $(mean{\pm}S.E.)$ 이었다. 4) 피질결손이 있는 신장의 절대 DMSA 신섭취율은 감소되어 있었고 상대측 신장의 섭취율은 피질 결손이 있더라도 대상적인 증가의 경향을 보였다. 이상의 결과로 소아에서 DMSA 절대적 신섭취율의 연령에 따른 변화를 알 수 있었으며 방광요관역류의 정도와 피질결손의 정도가 반드시 비례하지만은 않아서 시간경과에 따른 추후 검사가 필요하리라 생각된다. 또한 방광요관역류가 있는 환아에서 DMSA 섭취율로 신기능을 평가할 때, 특히 영유아에서 연령에 따른 고려가 있어야 할 것으로 보인다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between morphology and number of deciduous teeth and the occurrence of other dental anomalies in their successors, and to evaluate the necessity of early diagnosis of dental anomalies in the primary dentition. Prevalence of double teeth and congenital missing teeth was investigated in 254(134 boys, 120 girls) panoramic radiographic films, taken by 2 to 7-year-old children in Chonnam National University Hospital from 2000 to 2005. And then it was examined that relationship of anomalies of the primary dentition and their successors. Among them 11 children(6 boys, 5 girls) had double teeth or missing teeth. And prevalence of the double teeth was 1.6% and missing teeth was 3.1%. One subject had double teeth in in the mandible and missing teeth in the maxilla. Of the 11 cases of dental anomalies in primary dentition, 7 cases had congenital missing tooth in their successors. This study suggests that the dental anomalies in the primary dentition induced high prevalence of the congenital missing of permanent successors in the permanent dentition.

The double teeth include gemination and fusion. The congenital missing tooth is the absence of the tooth. The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of double teeth and congenital missing teeth in preschool children of Iksan city. The study population consisted of 1,031 children, 569 boys and 462 girls, aged from 17 to 84 months. The double teeth possess a variety of diagnostic and treatment problems. Gemination is the partial splitting of a single bud into two distinct entities that remain joined in a Siamese twin fashion. Fusion is the joining of two buds. Both may be normal, or one may be a supernumerary tooth. Congenital missing is the absence of one or a few teeth. Twenty three(11 boys and 12 girls) of the 1,031 children had double teeth and 17(8 boys and 9 girls) exhibited congenital missing of teeth. The prevalence of double primary teeth was 2.2%. The prevalence of congenital missing teeth was 1.6%. One subject had double teeth and congenital missing tooth at the same time. Of the 17 cases of congenital missing teeth, one girl showed it in the maxilla and aye boys and six girls had them in the unilateral side of the mandible. There were no significant differences in the prevalence of double teeth and congenital missing teeth between the boys and the girls.

Recently implant supported single crown is the popular treatment option to replace a single missing tooth. The purpose of this retrospective study was to analyze and evaluate the survival of implants with the $TiUnite^{TM}$ surface for single tooth replacement. From September 2002 to December 2006, 269 TiUniteTM surfaced implants were used in single tooth replacements at the Institute of Oral Health Science, Samsung Medical Center. Twenty one cases were excluded because of neighbor implants, missing records & short follow up period. Among 248 implants, the 129 implants (52.0%) were inserted in the maxilla and 119 (48.0%) in the mandible. One hundred implants placement (40.3%) were combined with guided bone regeneration, and 36 implants placement (14.5%) were combined with sinus bone augmentation. Mean observation period was $26.0{\pm}11.8$ months after implant placement. Twelve implants were recorded as failures, rendering a single implant survival rate of 95.2% over the observation period. Among failed 12 implants, 10 implants placed in the maxilla. The survival rate in the maxilla was 92.2% and in the mandible was 98.3%. The use of $TiUnite^{TM}$ surfaced single implant placement showed high survival rate for short time period.

미세수술을 이용한 재건외과 분야에서 빈번히 혈관이식이 요구된다. 이러한 경우 자가정맥이 가장 널리 사용되고 있으며 그의 신뢰성도 인정되어 있다. 그러나 정맥 채취에 따르는 부가적인 수술이 요구되며 혈관 공여부에 또다른 결손을 초래한다. 동결건조동종정맥은 이러한 점을 보완하고 자가정맥을 대체할 수 있는 잠재성이 있다. 이에 동결건조동종정맥의 효율성을 알아보고자 2.5cm 길이의 가토대퇴정맥을 $-65^{\circ}C$, 200 mtorr의 음압으로 동결건조시킨 다음 대퇴동맥 결손부에 동종이식하고(n=24), 신선한 가토대퇴정맥 동종이식군(n=24)과 자가정맥이식군(n=24)을 1주 간격으로 4주간 비교 관찰하였다. 2주 개존율은 동결건조동종정맥 이식군, 100%;동종정맥이식군, 50%; 자가정맥이식군, 100%이었으며 4주 개존율은 동결건조동종정맥이식군, 83.3%;동종정맥이식군, 50%;자가정맥이식군, 100%로서 동결건조처치만으로 동종정맥이식의 생존율을 증가시켰다. 미세임파구세포독성검사에서는 동결건조정맥의 항원성이 상당히 낮아져있음을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 동결건조정맥의 내막세포화가 주사전자현미경 및 광학현미경 소견상 자가정맥보다 지연됨이 관찰되었다. 이러한 결과를 종합해 볼 때 동결건조동종정맥은 아무런 처치를 하지않은 신선 동종정맥보다 현저한 장점이 있었지만, 자가정맥이식을 대신할 수 있는 보다 더 좋은 대체방법이라는 견지에서는 임상 적용이 어려울 것으로 사료되었다.

Purpose : The purpose of our investigation was to explore the natural course, and the factors that influence the natural course, in ostium secundum atrial septal defect(ASD) diagnosed within the first 4 weeks of life. Methods : We studied patients with ASD diagnosed within the first 4 weeks of life during the period from September 1995 to September 1999 in our hospital. The diagnosis and measuring of the size of ASD was carried out by two-dimensional echocardiogram(2DE, Hewlett-Packard Sonos $2500^{(R)}$) from subcostal long and short axis views. Results : There were 61 patients - 29 males and 32 females. According to the size of their defects, we divided them into four groups; group A(less than 4 mm : 24 cases), group B(four mm-six mm : 27 cases), group C(six mm-eight mm : six cases), group D(more than eight mm : four cases). In groups A and B, 22 of 24 patients(91.7%) and 23 of 27 patients(85.2%) had each closed spontaneously. In group C, four of six patients had closed spontaneously. In group D, no patient had closed spontaneously and three of four patients had been closed surgically. There were significant differences in the rate of spontaneous closure between less than six mm group and more than six mm group in the size of the defect(P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the rate of spontaneous closure between ASD combined with simple cardiac defect and isolated secundum ASD. Conclusion : We conclude that defects smaller than six mm in diameter are very likely to close spontaneously.

The objectives of this study were to classify the first permanent molars showing molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH) on the basis of defect size and to assess differences in the prognoses of restorations performed with different materials. The first permanent molars with MIH and posteruptive breakdown were categorized into MIH class I, II, and III. After performing restorations, retreatment frequencies were examined according to the defect class and initial restorative material used. Sealants, composite resins, and stainless steel crowns showed the highest survival rates in cases of MIH class I, II, and III defects, respectively.
