최근에 고령화 사회에 접어들면서 건강하게 활동하며 수명을 다하는 것이 중요한 연구과제가 되고 있다. 이 때문에 영양, 운동, 스트레스, 환경 등과 관련하여 암, 당뇨병, 고혈압, 비만, 동맥경화 등 생활습관병의 극복이 사회문제가 되고 있는 실정이다. 지금까지 고려인삼의 대표적인 동물실험 및 임상학적 연구결과를 종합하여 보면 성인의 난치성 만성질환에 대해서 치료제보다는 질병을 예방하고 회복촉진에 보다 큰 효과 있음을 확인할 수 있다. 이는 인삼이 식품과 의약품의 중간에 위치한 식품의약품(Nutraceutical)의 용도로 활용할 수 있음을 시사한다. 현재까지 인삼제품에 표시되는 기능성의 내용은 약 3,000여편 이상의 약리효능에 관련된 논문이 발표되었다 하더라도 "피로회복, 면역력 증진, 혈소판 응집 억제를 통한 혈액흐름에 도움이 됩니다"이며 이외의 기능성 표시는 현재로서 원칙적으로 불가한 것으로 되어 있다. 그러나 시험물질의 규격화 및 임상시험의 검토기준을 만족시키는 과학적 자료제출에 의한 개별 평가 후 표시내용의 확대가 가능하다. 고려인삼의 다양한 성분 중 ginsenoside는 주요 약효성분으로 인정을 받고 있으며 현재 품질관리의 지표성분으로 활용되고 있다. 이러한 개별 ginsenoside의 약리작용을 보면 서로 유사 또는 상반된 효과를 보여주는 성분들이 공존하고 있어 인삼의 다양한 약리효과와 일맥상통하는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 아울러, ginsenoside는 인삼의 부위 별로 현격한 차이를 보여주기 때문에 소재의 규격화는 매우 중요하다고 판단된다. 따라서, 인삼제품 개발의 가장 중요한 조건은 의약품에 가까운 기능성식품으로 세계적인 제품을 만들기 위해서는 표준화가 선행되어야 한다. 이와 같은 조건을 잘 충족시키는 제품이 스위스 "파마톤의 진사나(백삼추출물, G115)" 제품으로 생각할 수 있다. 따라서, 고려인삼의 수출시장 확대 및 세계적인 제품을 위해서는 진사나에 필적할 수 있는 새로운 홍삼의 표준화된 추출물을 도출하는 것이 무엇보다 급선무라 생각한다. 아울러 고려인삼의 특장점 발굴을 위한 표준화 된 추출분획물, 활성성분 및 효능과 연계한 새로운 고부가가치 창출제품(식품/의약품)개발에 주력해야 할 것이다.

Severe dental attrition causes pathological changes of the tooth, imbalanced occlusion, and functional and aesthetic complications and can also result in a decrease in occlusal vertical dimension that can incur temporomandibular joint and muscular complications. Before restoring the vertical dimension with full-mouth prosthetic restorations, it is important to determine the amount of vertical lifting through complete diagnosis. In this study, a 59 year-old male patient with generalized attrition and fracture of teeth was treated with full-mouth zirconia prosthetic restoration in order to recover vertical dimension and aesthetics. Through the analysis of physiologic rest position and inter-canine distance, the treatment was planned for lifting 3 mm in vertical dimension. Interim crown were fabricated after full-mouth wax up, having the patient use for 6 months. The final monolithic and bilayered zirconia restorations were completed. The patient showed satisfaction in function and aesthetics for 18 months of follow-up since delivering the final restorations.

Soft liner is used to functional impression technique when dental stone is immediately poured after taking impression because of viscoelasticity. In this case, a 78-year-old male visited for new dentures. Due to severe resorption of mandibular edentulous ridge, functional impression taking by closed mouth technique was planned. First of all, making maxillary and mandibular provisional dentures was done, and lined by soft liner to rehabilitate pressured maxillary and mandibular edentulous ridge. After this, Functional impression was taken by closed mouth technique using provisional dentures which are transformed to healed maxillary and mandibular edentulous ridge, and final denture were fabricated using maxillary provisional denture as a reference of artificial teeth arrangement. Consequently, restoring a complete edentulous patient with taking functional impression using provisional dentures resulted in recovering satisfying retention and function.

In edentulous patient, not only mastication and pronunciation but also esthetics are compromised. By restoring an edentulous patient with complete dentures, masticatory function and esthetics can be rehabilitated. The advantages of the dentures using CAD/CAM are that they can be reconstructed ubiquitously with stored data, and the strength and density of CAD/CAM material are clinically acceptable. In this clinical report, interocclusal record was taken in a conventional manner and then two lab processing procedures were performed: conventional method and CAD/CAM method. Two types of processing procedures were compared and evaluated. Fair clinical results were obtained in both ways, satisfying the patient.

Using computer-aided design and manufacturing technique improve quality of treatment in many aspect. This case reports the complete mouth rehabilitation of a patient with amelogenesis imperfecta utilizing digital technology. Clinical examination revealed loss of mastication due to insufficient occlusal stop, missing teeth, interdental spacing due to microdontia, insufficient overbite, and etc. Full veneer crowns for teeth were selected, followed by a fixed partial denture and implant placement was done using CAD-CAM guide template with bone graft for partially edentulous space. Definitive restorations were duplicated by double scanning provisional restorations and successfully delivered to the patient. These full mouth rehabilitation procedures resulted in satisfactory outcomes for the patient functionally and aesthetically.

In the case of patients with pathological tooth wear, it is necessary to evaluate the loss of the vertical dimension. Setting the appropriate vertical dimension is important to rehabilitate the patient's stable intermaxillary relationship. A 77-year-old female patient's chief complaint was the pain of the mandibular incisors and the lack of molars. At the first visit, pathologic tooth wear of the mandibular incisors were observed. After diagnosis and evaluation, loss of vertical dimension was not observed, but insufficient intermaxillary space for prosthetic restoration was confirmed. Mandibular rehabilitation was performed with vertical dimension increase and this showed satisfactory results both functionally and aesthetically.

When planning oral rehabilitation for maxillary edentulous patients, fixed prosthetic restoration using implants, complete denture restoration or overdentures using implants can be considered as treatment methods. In the case of complete denture restoration, it does not require additional surgery and is relatively economical. In the case of implant-supported fixed prostheses, the functional part is generally superior to that of complete denture restoration, but there are cases in which implant placement is clinically difficult. Recently in consideration of the patient's needs and the condition of the remaining alveolar bone, after partial implant placement, a method of restoring with a removable partial denture using implant-supported surveyed crown is also being attempted. This case is a case of performing a removable partial denture restoration using implant-supported surveyed crown in the anterior maxilla, and showing satisfactory esthetic and functional results.

With the development of digital dentistry, it is being applied in various ways of dental treatment. This case report presents the definitive prosthesis designed in advance with a re-established vertical dimension and the digital technology, which determined the amount of tooth preparation, in order to preserve as much tooth structure as possible in a patient with pathological wear of the posterior teeth and loss of vertical dimension. For accurate tooth preparation, the guides of the occlusal and axial surfaces were digitally and additively manufactured. Then, aesthetics and anterior guidance were established at the provisional stage. The information of the provisional restoration was delivered to the definitive stage by double scanning. The digital technology, including the virtual planning and the guided tooth removal, produced the definitive restorations satisfactory to both the patient and clinician.

This study was performed to examine the anesthetic and cardiopulmonary effects of medetomidine, midazolam and ketamine (MMK) combination in ten beagle dogs. Dogs were randomly allocated to two groups. Treatment group MMK-L received 0.015 mg/kg medetomidine followed by 0.3 mg/kg midazolam and 5 mg/kg ketamine by intramuscular injection. Treatment group MMK-H received 0.02 mg/kg medetomidine followed by 0.3 mg/kg midazolam and 5 mg/kg ketamine by intramuscular injection. Induction, anesthesia, sternal recumbency, standing, walking time, heart rate, arterial blood pressure, rectal temperature, respiratory rate and arterial blood gases were measured. Mean anesthesia time was significantly different between MMK-L group ($52.4{\pm}11.08$ minutes) and MMK-H group ($78.2{\pm}20.72$ minutes). Sedative scores and noxious stimuli were raised to the maximum value at 5 minutes after administration of the test dose and maintained until 40 minutes in both groups. In both groups, the heart rate significantly decreased after MMK administration. The blood pressures (MAP, SAP and DAP) increased after MMK administration but there were no significant differences in blood pressures between two groups. In conclusion, intramuscular administration of medetomidine followed by intramuscular injection of midazolam and ketamine in beagle dogs, leads immediate and sufficient anesthesia and proper doses of medetomidine for minimal adverse effects in intramuscular MMK combination will be 0.015 mg/kg in dogs.

The PFAPA syndrome is characterized by periodic fever, malaise, aphthous stomatitis, pharyngitis and cervical lymphadenitis without long-term sequelae. It has been known as one of the cause of periodic fever in children. Because there is no specific laboratory findings, the diagnosis of PFAPA syndrome is not only made by exclusion of diseases which are related to the other causes of periodic fever, but also made by a careful history and characteristic clinical manifestations. The dramatic response to the single oral dose of corticosteroid is unique to this syndrome. The PFAPA syndrome tends to be resolved without any long-term adverse sequelae. We have reported a 3 year old boy who was diagnosed as having PFAPA syndrome by episodes of periodic fever for 3 months and by excluding other febrile diseases. He was treated with oral prednisolone and his symptoms had been improved dramatically.
