  • This is a case report of surgically treated rupture of Valsalva Sinus aneurysm combined with VSD. He has been relatively healthy until about one month before admission, when during bath, he felt abruptly palpitation, left chest pain and exertional dyspnea. These symptoms have progressed. On admission, thrill was palpable and continuous machinery murmur was audible on 2nd and 3rd intercostal space along the left sternal border. A rupture of Valsalva`s sinus aneurysm was confirmed by aortography and echocardiography but a small VSD was found by cardiotomy in open heart surgery. On 11th Sep. 1978, open heart surgery was performed. Valsalva`s sinus aneurysm came out from right coronary aortic sinus and ruptured into the right ventricle. It sized 1.2X1.5X1.5 cm. Ruptured opening was noted on apex of aneurysm [0.8X0.8cm], VSD [1. 0X0. 3cm in size] was just below the aortic annulus. The aneurysmal sac was removed on neck. After that, VSD and aneurysmal orifice were closed together with interrupted mattress sutures on same plane. The postoperative course was uneventful and discharged three weeks after open heart surgery.

  • The purpose of this study is to determine the developmental relationship between the maxillary primary central incisors and their permanent successor. The auther took 315 cases of lateral cephalogram of the children (males were 171, females were 141) Angular change of the teeth and horizontal and vertical linear change were observed. The obtained results were as follows: 1. The inclination of the long axes of both incisor teeth was relatively stable and labio-version of both incisore was significant at 7 years of age. 2. The distance between the incisal edge of the permanent central insisor and the resorbing apex of the primary maxillary central incisor remained within 2mm of each other, 3. Vertical growth of the maxillary anterior portion was greater than horizontal growth from 6 to 7 years of age. 4. There was not a significant sexual difference.

  • Two patients were admitted with chief complaints of exertional dyspnea and palpitation respectively. Physical examination showed Grade III and Grade II to III systolic rumbling murmur at apex in each case. Chest X-ray and EKG findings were compatible with mitral insufficiency in both cases. The diseased valves were replaced with Beall mitral valve prosthesis under cardiopulmonary bypass using hemodilution technic. The first patient died of asphyxia due to tracheomalacia complicated after tracheostomy 3 months after operation and the 2nd patient was discharged in good condition one month after operation-Autopsy of the 1st patient showed no thrombus formation, no disc variance, and good epithelization of valve cuffs. In the second case clinical improvement was remarkable with decreased heart size.

  • Thirty eight mandibular second premolars were injected with china ink, decalcified, cleared and used in an in vitro study to determine the number of root canals, the frequency and location of lateral canals, the location of apical foramens, the frequency of apical deltas, and the curvature of root canals. The results were as follows: 1. Most of the teeth demonstrated single canal, but 5.3% of the teeth were found to have bifurcated or trifurcated canals. 2. Of the 40 canals studied, 52.5% of the canals were found to have lateral canals and these ramifications were usually located in the apical third of the root. 3. 7 apical foramens were located directly on the root apex and 31 foramens laterally. 4. 4 canals showed mesial curvature, 20 canals distal curvature, 11 canals buccal curvature, and 8 canals lingual curvature.

  • This paper describes the fabrication method for atomic force microscopy(AFM) tip with multi-walled carbon nanotube(MWNT). For making a carbon nanotube (CNT) modified tips, AC electric field which cause the dielectrophoresis was used for alignment and deposition of CNTs in this research. By dropping the MWNT solution and applying an electric field between an AFM tip and an electrode, MWNTs which were dispersed into a diluted solution were directly assembled onto the apex of the AFM tips due to the attraction by the dielectrophoretic force. In this case, we investigate the effect of the angle between a tip axis and an electrode. Experimental setup were presented, and then CNT attached AFM tips are successfully shown in this paper.

  • Endocarditis associated with Escherichia coli was diagnosed in a 2-year-old male sea lion (Zalopus californianus). At necropsy, the heart had biventricular dilation with marked attenuation of the apex. Verrucous, grayish-red, vegetative lesions were present in both the aortic and left AV valves. Several discrete hyperemia-rimmed infarcts were noted in the kidneys. (omitted)

  • Purpose: Several methods of the nipple reduction have been reported. However, the methods described previously are difficult or have some demerits. This study proposes a simple technique for reduction of the nipple height as well as diameter. Methods: The purposed nipple height is marked. A pentahedral design of excision was marked around the nipple. Local anesthetic solution was infiltrated and a 4 - 0 Nylon traction suture was applied at the nipple apex. Excision of the nipple inside both two triangles and a rectangle was made. Remaining two flaps were approximated using 5 - 0 Nylon simple interrupted sutures. However, a part of wound closure was not done in the central area of the nipple. Results: 83 patients(166 nipples) underwent this procedure from December 1999 to December 2008. Follow up ranged from 6 months to 2 years with a mean of 10 months. 78 patients were female and 5 patients were male. No major complication occurred and remaining scars were very inconspicuous. Conclusion: This simple technique has the advantage of nipple reduction in both height and diameter, and provides good aesthetic outcomes.

  • Author had an experiment on the size and density of the lung field by respiration methods in taking chest roentgenogram, and obtained the results as follows; 1. General density of chest film in full inhalation was higher than the other respiration methads. a. Apex length of the lung was $2.49{\pm}0.54cm$ in full inhalation, $2.30{\pm}0.53cm$ in normal respiration, and $1.97{\pm}0.58cm$ in full exhalation respectively. 3. Size of the lung in full inhalation was the largest as $21.95{\pm}1.83cm$ in length and $26.37{\pm}1.22cm$ in width.

  • As FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) processor is used in OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplesing) system. According to increase requirement about mobility and broadband, Research about low power and low area FFT processor is needed. So research concern in reduction of memory size and complex multiplier is in progress. Increasing points of FFT increase memory area of FFT processor. Specially, SRU(Signal Reordering Unit) has the most memory in FFT processor. In this paper, we propose a reduced method of memory size of SRU in FFT processor. SRU of 64, 1024 point FFT processor performed implementation by VerilogHDL coding and it verified by simulation. We select the APEX20KE family EP20k1000EPC672-3 device of Altera Corps. SRU implementation is performed by synthesis of Quartus Tool. The bits of data size decide by 24bits that is 12bits from real, imaginary number respectively. It is shown that, the proposed SRU of 64point and 1024point achieve more than 28%, 24% area reduction respectively.

  • Nano manipulator is used to manufacture Carbon NanoTube(CNT) tips. Using nano manipulator, operator attaches a CNT at the apex of Atomic Force Microscope(AFM) tip, which requires a mastery of mechanics and long manufacture time. Nano manipulator is installed inside a Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM) chamber to observe the operation. This paper presents a control scheme for horizontal axes of nano manipulator via processing SEM image. Edges of AFM tip and CNT are first detected, and the position information so obtained is fed to control horizontal axes of nano manipulator. That is, a visual servoing loop is realized to control the axes more precisely in nano scale.
