Purpose: Leg length discrepancy (LLD) is one of the risk factors for postural imbalance. This study aimed to investigate the effect of induced leg length discrepancy on the limitation of stability (LOS) and static postural balance. Methods: Thirteen adults (males, 7; females 6) participated in this study. The LOS and static postural balance [sway length, sway area, and sway velocity of center of gravity (COG) displacement] were measured by the balance trainer system. The subjects were asked to move the COG for the anterior, posterior, and left and right directions maximally and to keep standing on the platform with and without induced LLD for 30 s in the open and closed eyes conditions, respectively. The LLD was artificially induced to 2 cm using insole. Wilcoxon test was used to compare the LOS and the static postural balance between with and without induced LLD. Results: The anterior and posterior LOS significantly decreased in induced LLD (p<0.05), and the left and right LOS were not significantly different between with and without LLD (p>0.05). Sway length, sway area, and sway velocity of the COG displacement significantly decreased in induced LLD (p<0.05). Conclusion: This study suggests that induced LLD could decease the antero-posterior LOS and increased the static postural balance. Therefore, the LLD could disturb the postural balance.

This report presents a rare case of maxillary osteoblastoma in a 17-year-old female. The patient presented with dull pain and facial asymmetry inferior to the left zygoma. An intraoral examination found a painless swelling on the buccal gingival tissue in the left posterior maxilla. Panoramic radiographs and multidetector computed tomographic images revealed an ill-defined, non-corticated, mixed attenuating entity of osseous density located within the left posterior maxilla apical to the left maxillary molars. The entity exhibited a heterogeneous internal structure with a fine granular appearance, and the periphery showed a partial hypo-attenuating rim along the antero-medial aspect. Expansion of the left posterior maxilla accompanied with displacement of the left maxillary sinus floor was noted. External root resorption of the first and second molars was noted, as well as postero-superior displacement of the third molar. The histopathologic diagnosis of the biopsy was osteoblastoma. Complete excision of the tumor was performed.

For the purpose of interpretation of positional changes of craniofacial structures in Class III malocclusion between mixed and permanent dentition, 73 normal samples and 103 Class III samples of mixed dentition and 125 normal samples and 168 Class III samples of permanent dentition were selected. Comparative cephalometric analysis was undertaken between them respectively by mesh diagram method to evaluate the positional changes of maxilla and mandible in anteroposterior direction and vertical direction and also the inclination changes of maxillary and mandibular incisors in labio-lingual direction. The following results were obtained : 1. The antero-posterior positional changes of the maxilla and mandible were posterior direction of maxilla and anterior direction of mandible. 2. The vertical positional changes of the maxilla and mandible were superior direction of both maxilla and mandible. 3. The labio-lingual inclination changes of the maxillary and mandibular incisors were lingual direction of both maxillary and mandibular incisors.

The healing response may very with the tissue, the site and the degree of wound. the author observed histochemically the epithelial regeneration in the har palate wound of healthy male albino rats, varying in age from 120 to 150 days, and weighing about 100 gm. The deep wounds were made antero-posterior linealy by surgical knife to the depth of bone level. They were sacrified by ether anesthesia on 1, 2, 4, 7, 10 and 14 days after wounding. the staining methods used were Mcmanus' PAS reaction, Mowry's modification of the Hale reaction employing Muller's colloidal iron reagent, alloxan-Schiff reaction and hematoxylin-eosin stain. The results were as follows : 1. In the wound healing of hard palate, the epithelium had marked PAS positive reaction in the granular and the prickle cell layers on the from 2nd to 7th day. 2. Alloxan-Schiff reactions of regenerated epithelium were slightly increased on 7th day.

In the process of revising the tachinid genus Linnaemya Robineau-Desvoidy in Korea, we have discovered two species for the first time in Korea. They closely resemble each other and need to be identified with caution. We here provide detailed redescriptions and illustrations with their diagnostic characters indicated. Linnaemya atriventris can be distinguished from L. hirtipennis by the combination of the following characteristics: 1) abdomen black in ground color; 2) wing vein R1 without setulose; 3) hypandrium without secondary posterior lobe; 4) male with antero-basal 1/3 of flagellomere 1 distinctly swollen; and 5) postgonite very weakly curved dorsally.

This study focused on the method of interpreting Moire's topography. There has been no standard of interpretation which informed, this study, The conclusions arc as follows: Miore's image closed contour lines which is consisted of points. These points in one contour have the same distances from the screen to the patient's back. Moire's index means the number of contour gaps from symmetrical point of a specific point with the axis of central line. The number of contours which pass the median line means the degree of antero-posterior curvature.

Keratocystic odontogenic tumor (KCOT) is a benign odontogenic tumor with a potentially aggressive and infiltrative behavior. KCOT is most commonly occurred in mandible and demonstrate a unilocular, round, oval, scalloped radiolucent area, while large lesions may appear multilocular. An important characteristic of KCOT is its propensity to grow in an antero-posterior direction within medullary cavity of bone causing minimal expansion. Definitive diagnosis relies on histological examination. In this report, a KCOT that had an expansion both buccal and lingual cortical bone is described including its features in computed tomography and ultrasonographic exams. The lesion was removed surgically via an intraoral approach under local anesthesia and histologically reported as a KCOT.

High tibial osteotomy (HTO) is a widely accepted treatment for unicompartmental osteoarthritis of the knee and other lower extremity deformities, particularly for young and active patients. However, it is generally recognized as a technically demanding procedure. Thus the limitations of conventional surgical methods have been reported. Currently, the use of computer-aided surgery (CAS) system for successful surgery was increased. However it has been reported many problems such as expensive equipment, infection or fracture caused by inserting half-pin and delaying surgery. Therefore we propose a novel method which can be tracked by using tracking-pin inserted in arbitrary locations of the femur and tibia, and fluoroscopic images obtained from G-arm of antero-posterior and lateral-medial.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship of nose profile with respect to skeletodental pattern, by measured and analyzed statistically the lateral cephalograms of 95 females (13 to 30 years old). Tge results were summerized as follows ; 1. The antero-posterior factors of the nose - nasofrontal angle, nasofacial angle, and dorsal length / ala length ratio were different among the malocclusion groups 2. There were no significant correlation between the the vertical nose factors and the skeletal factors 3. The Class I groups had a straight nose profile , the Class II groups had a convex profile ; the Class III groups had a concave profile.

To study the effect of the tetracycline-HCl on the growth of the rats, the author made a daily injection of tetracycline-HCl in the amount of 40mg/kg of body weight to the lactating mother and weanling rats for 7 days. Lactating and weanling young rats were killed at a week intervals and removed tibia and mandible from soft tissues. The effect of the tetracycline on the growth of rats were analysed from the weight, the length of tibia and the size of mandible. The results were as follows: 1. Tetracycline inhibited the growth of young rats. 2. Inhibitory effects were greater ill the weanling group than the lactating group. 3. The inhibitory effect was marked just after the injection of tetracycline-HCl in body weight and after a week in mandible and tibia. 4. The inhibitory effect of growth nab continued for 2-3 weeks in body weight and 3-4 weeks in tibia and mandible. 5. In growth of mandible, the antero-posterior growth was more inhibited than the vertical.
