The purpose of this study was to assess the thermographic differences of craniomandibular area between normal individual and patients with craniomandibular disorders and to compare the differences between clinical and thermographical assessment. The author had used 50 subjects as materials for this study, which was divided into 2 groups (first group included 15 healthy subjects and second group included 35 patients) with craiomandibular disorders; 17 subjects had normal disc-condyle relationship, 13 subjects had disc displacement with reduction and 5 subjects had disc displacement without reduction. Agema 870 thermovision(D.I.T.I.) was used to take thermographs with $0.1^{\circ}C$ difference of gradual temperature shift. The results were as follows : 1. Of 34 patients with craniofacial pain, 15(44%) subjects showed hyperthermia on the pain site in the thermography, 8(23.5%)exhibited hyperthermia on the site opposed to the pain site, and 11(32.4%) did not show any significant thermal change. One patient without craniofacial pain showed hyperthermia on the site opposed to the site of disc displacement without reductin. 2. Of 35 patients with craniofacial pain or disc displacement, 24(68.6%) subjects showed a significant thermal difference between symptomatic and asymptomatic sides of the face, but 11(31.4%) did not show any difference. 3. Of 17 patients with pain but with normal disc-condyle relationship, 8(47.1 subjects showed hyperthermia on the pain site, 4(23.5%) showed on the site opposed to the pain site, and 5(29.4%) did not show any significant thermal change. 4. Or 13 patients with pain and disc displacement with reduction, 6(46.2%) subjects showed hyperthermia on the pain site, 3(23.1%) showed on the site opposed to the pain site, and 4(30.8%) did not show any significant thermal change. 5. 15 healthy subjects did not show any thermal differences between the both sides of the face.

Neurosensory dysfunction of the injured inferior alveolarnerve(IAN) is a common and distrssing consequence of traumatic or iatrogenic injury. Conventional neurosensory testing has been used to detect and monitor sensory impairments of the injured IAN. However, these tests had low reliability and are not qualitative at best because they are based on solely on the patient's subjective assesment of symptoms. Consequently, there is need for more reliable, sensitive, and objective test measures to document and to monitor sensory dysfunction of the trigeminal nerve. This study was to investigate DITI's (digital infrared thermographic imaging) potential as a diagnostic alternative for evaluating of the nerve injures and sensory disturbance. Subjects were 30 patients who had been referred to Ewha Medical Center due to sensory disturbance of the lower lip and chin followed after unobserved inferior alveolar nerve injuries. The patients were examined by clinical neurosensory tests as SLTD (static light touch discrimination), MDD (moving direction discrimination), PPN (pin prick nociception) and DITI (digital infrared thermographic imaging). The correlation between clinical sensory dysfunction scores(Sum of SLTD, MDD, PPN, NP, Tinel sign) and DITI were tested by Spearman nonparametric rank correlation anaylsis & Kruskal-Wallis test, Wilcoxon 2-sample test. This study resulted in as follows; (1) The difference of thermal difference between normal side and affected side was as ${\Delta}-3.2{\pm}0.13$. (2) The DITI differences of the subjects presenting dysesthesia of the lip and chin were correlated significantly with the neurosensory dysfunction scores(r=0.419, p=0.021)and SLTD (r=0.429, p<0.05). (3) The MDD, PPN, NP, Tinel sign, duration, gender were not correlated with DITI(p> 0.05). Therefore, the DITI(digital infrared thermographic imaging) can be an option of the useful objective diagnostic methods to evaluate the injured inferior alveolar nerve and sensory dysfunction of trigerminal nerve.

The design of osteotomy plane in orthognathic surgery has been developed to diminish the nerve injury. Intraoral Vertico-Sagittal Ramus Osteotomy (IVSRO) is the one of the best way to minimize untoward results, which is designed not to expose the lingula. We evaluated the nerve damage before and after with current perception threshold (CPT) test which is modem and numerically expressible way of nerve damages. Sixty patients underwent IVSRO since 1998 were evaluated. They were divided into 2 groups; one group underwent IVSRO only, and the other underwent IVSRO plus genioplasty. The both groups were evaluated with CPT test 1 week before surgery, and 1, 3 and 6 months after surgery. The CPT test was performed on A-beta, A-delta and C fiber respectively. 111e result showed that the recovery of sensory function of damaged nerve fibers was observed at the period of three to six months after surgery. There was no impairment of nerve function after only the IVSRO . But there were sensory disturbances in cases of additional genioplasty group. We thought that one of major factors on nerve damages were exposure of nerve and traction injury during genioplasty.

각종 토양시료로부터 M배지와 AMP배지에서 생육하는 500여종의 방선균을 분리하였으며, 그 중 전배양배지(GMY 배지)에서 가장 뛰어난 항암활성능을 소유한 균주를 불리하고 배양하여 세포외 항암성물질을 분리하여 이 물질을 완전정제하고 MTT 정량분석을 실시하여 암세포에 대한 세포독성검사를 실시하였다. 1. 정제는 배양한 균체를 완전히 제거하고 동량의 ethylacetate를 처리하여 배양액중의 항암성분을 추출하고 무수 magnesium sulfate로 건조 후 농축, ethanol로 용해, 10배량의 water을 첨가하여 $4^{\circ}C$에서 overnight 시킨 후 추출액을 원심분리(12,000 rpm, 30분)하여 methylene chloride로 용해시켜 silica gel 60 column(${\phi}35{\times}600mm$, Merck Co.), methylene chloride-ethanol(96:4) 용매로 용출하고 sephadex LH-20 column(${\phi}15{\times}300mm$, Pharmacia LKB)에서 100% methanol로 용출하여 HPLC(Waters, ODS)를 이용하여 최종적으로 완전 정제하였다. 2. Compound는 Gram(+) 세균(6균주), Gram(-) 세균(11균주), 효모(2균주), 곰팡이(1균주)에 대하여 항균 효과를 나타내었다. 3. 완전 정제된 물질에 대한 항암효과를 측정한 결과, 모든 실험 암세포에 대해서 뛰어난 항암효과를 나타내었으며 protein성 물질은 아닌 것으로 추정되었다.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the patient's and clinician's response to rapid oral HIV screening test. Attitude assessment survey was carried out on patients test with rapid oral HIV screening test and clinicians who conducted the test. The patients and clinicians were present at the dental hospital and clinics which were participating in the research project, between March and May 2010. Rapid oral HIV screening test is safe and efficient to the patients. It also demonstrated reliability to accuracy and confidentiality, and high recommendation to rapid oral HIV screening test. The clinician survey revealed high test convenience and high appraisal to patient satisfaction. In conclusion, if rapid oral HIV screening test becomes more common, patients will receive safe and convenient and high reliable HIV infection test, while clinicians will be able to create safe dental care environment.

자극성 섬유종은 만성적인 자극 또는 외상에 의해 발생하는 구강 내의 흔한 섬유증식성 병소이다. 자극성 섬유종과 유사한 형태의 다른 양성 또는 악성 연조직종양의 감별진단을 위해서는 병리조직학적 검사가 필요하다. 본 증례는 엔젤만 증후군 환아에서 상악 좌측 중절치의 이소맹출로 인해 자극성 섬유종이 발생하여 미다졸람을 이용한 근육내 진정 하에 절제생검을 시행한 뒤, 병소의 재발 없이 양호한 치유 결과를 나타내고 있기에 보고하는 바이다.

1994년 1월에서 1998년 8월까지의 영남대학교 의과대학 부속병원에서 신경베체트병으로 진단받은 9명의 환자를 대상으로 전신적인 임상증상과 자기공명영상소견을 분석한 결과 주된 전신적인 증상은 구강궤양, 안질환, 음부궤양이었으며, 자기공명영상소견에서 병소부위는 중뇌, 내포, 뇌교, 시상, 대뇌기저핵, 중소뇌각, 연수, 그리고 피질하백질 순으로 호발되었다. 이들 병소는 T2강조영상에서 불균질의 고신호강도, T1강조영상에서 저신호 강도로 보였으며, 국소적인 조영증강이 비교적 흔하게 관찰되었다. 추적영상에서 병변의 호전 및 재발이 관찰되었으나 1년이상 추적검사에서 병변이 있던 부위에 뇌조직의 위축이 관찰되었다. 결론적으로 신경베체트병의 전신적인 임상증상과 특징적인 자기공명영상소견을 앎으로서 신경베체트병의 진단에 도움이 되리라 생각한다.

11세 여환이 저작시 불편감을 주소로 내원하여 임상 구강 검사 결과 하악 우측 구치부의 scissor bite이 관찰되었다. 내원 당시 환아는 치과 치료에 대한 두려움과 거부감을 나 타냈고 이에 1년 동안 정기 검진을 하여 환자와의 신뢰관계를 형성 후 교정치료가 가능하였다. Williams Syndrome 환자의 경우 사교적이며 친밀한 성격임에도 치과종사자나 치과 치료에 대한 두려움을 가질 수 있어 치료를 시작하기 전 환자와 치과 종사자간의 관계 형성을 통한 신뢰를 획득함으로 더 나은 질의 치료를 시행할 수 있을 것이다.

Purpose : The aim of this studγ was to evaluate the patient's and dentist's perspective and knowledge on rapid human immunodeficiency virus screening test in dental setting. Material and Methods: In March 2009, 100 patients and 100 dentists at College of Dentistry, Yonsei University were provided an attitude assessment survey. Results : Results were analyzed for acceptance of testing and potential barriers. 94% of patients agreed to take a rapid HIV screening test and 77% of dentists were willing to provide the test to their patients. Also the current knowledge state of patients and dentists on HIV infection was not accurate as expected. Conclusion : Overall, dental clinic patients widely accepted the offer of rapid oral HIV screening. Rapid HIV screening test in the dental setting ran be an important option to increase the number of individuals who know their HIV status.
