  • 최근 Computed tomography (CT) 조사선량의 인체에 대한 부정적 영향이 부각됨에 따라 선량을 줄이는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있고, 이로 인하여 소 동물에 관한 연구는 점점 임상전의 연구로서 필수적으로 여겨지고 있다. 최근에는 피폭 선량을 줄일 수 있는 방법으로서 이론적으로 투영 데이터가 충분하지 않을 때 정확하게 영상을 재구성 하는 것이 가능한 Total Variation (TV) minimization 알고리즘이 각광받고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 micro-CT (DRGem, Harmony80H series, Korea) 시스템에서 획득한 적은 수의 투영 데이터를 가지고 TV minimization에 기초한 반복적 영상 재구성 알고리즘과 기존의 Feldkamp-Davis-Kress (FDK) 알고리즘을 사용하여 영상을 재구성하고 두 알고리즘의 영상 화질을 비교 및 평가하였다. TV minimization 알고리즘의 효과를 평가하기 위해서, 먼저 서로 다른 농도의 조영제, 물, 공기가 들어있는 원통형 팬톰을 제작하였고, micro-CT를 사용하여 영상을 획득하였다. Tube와 검출기 일회전 당 최대 400개의 투영 데이터를 획득할 수 있으며, TV minimization 알고리즘의 영상 복원의 정도를 평가하기 위해서 20, 50, 90, 180장의 적은 투영 데이터를 추출하였다. 영상 비교평가를 위한 참고 영상(FDK-reference 영상)은 마찬가지로 400개의 투영데이터를 이용하여 FDK 알고리즘으로 재구성하였고, 20, 50, 90, 180장의 투영데이터를 가지고 TV minimization 알고리즘, FDK 알고리즘을 이용하여 재구성한 영상과 FDK-reference 영상의 프로파일, Contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR), Universal quality index(UQI)를 각각 비교평가 하였다. 또한, 소 동물에 관한 연구를 위하여 mouse 영상에 관하여 프로파일과 UQI를 분석하여 비교평가 하였다. 결과적으로 90개의 투영데이터를 사용하여 재구성한 원통형 팬톰 영상을 분석하였을 때, TV minimization 영상(TV-90) 및 FDK 영상(FDK-90)의 CNR과 UQI를 비교하였을 때 FDK-90보다 TV-90에서 CNR이 0.21, UQI가 0.18 증가하였다. 원통형 팬톰 영상과 같은 조건에서 mouse 영상을 사용하였을 때, UQI는 FDK-90보다 TV-90에서 0.08 증가하였다. 결론적으로 본 연구결과는 기존의 micro-CT의 투영 데이터의 사분의 일이 되는 투영데이터를 사용하여 영상을 재구성하여 비교평가 한 결과 투영영상 데이터의 수가 제한되는 경우에 FDK 알고리즘보다 TV minimization 알고리즘이 X-ray 조사시간을 줄임으로서 피폭선량을 줄이는데 효과적으로 기여할 것으로 기대된다. 특히, 조사시간의 단축은 물체의 움직임으로 인한 영상 화질의 저하를 감소시키는데 기여할 것으로 사려된다.

  • 홍삼의 여성성기능 장애 개선과 건강관련 삶의 질 개선 효과를 규명하기 위해 성기능 저하를 호소하는 만 30세 이상 45세 미만의 기혼여성을 대상으로 6주간의 기본 투약기간을 두 번 거친 총 20주 동안의 교차 임상시험을 진행한 결과 대상자들 모두에서 성기능 개선과 일반적 건강수준 향상, 삶의 질 개선 효과가 나타났으나 홍삼과 대조약의 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 나타나지 않았다. 특히 대부분의 유효성 평가 항목들이 대상약에 상관없이 1차 투약에서 좀 더 개선되는 양상을 보였고, 홍삼과 대조약의 효과가 크게 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 그러나 성욕 (desire)의 경우는 모든 대상자에서 홍삼을 복용한 경우가 대조약을 복용한 경우보다 좀 더 개선되는 양상을 보였으며, 일반적 건강수준과 삶의 질 개선에 있어서는 특히 신체적 기능 (PF)이 정신적 요소보다 홍삼을 복용한 경우에 좀 더 개선되는 양상을 보였다. 이러한 결과는 정서적 반응에 의해 높은 변동을 보일 수 있는 대상 질환의 특성 상대조약의 높은 위약효과에 의해 홍삼의 유의한 효과가 가려졌음에도 불구하고 홍삼의 보기온양 (補氣溫陽)하는 효과가 실제적으로 발휘된 것으로 생각되었으며, 신체적 건강수준 개선과 더불어 홍삼에 일정한 성기능 개선 효과가 있음을 유추할 수 있게 하였다. 따라서 본 연구 방법을 토대로 향후 성기능장애와 같은 기능성 장애에 대한 강한 위약 효과를 고려한 좀 더 많은 수의 대상자를 포함한 장기간의 추가 임상 시험 연구가 이루어진다면 신체적 건강과 삶의 질, 그리고 성기능 개선에 관한 홍삼의 유의한 효과를 규명할 수 있을 것이라 생각된다.

  • Introduction : Nursing as a profession is gelling wide acceptance today, especially among independent -minded women with necessary physical, mental and academic qualifications. This is particularly true of "comprehensive nursing", which requires to total dedication on the part if the nurse herself-physical, mental and sociocultural. Such comprehensive approach is like-wise called for in the institutional training of professional nurses. Undergraduate nursing courses nowadays place an increasing emphasis on the microscopic approach of training a nurse as an intelligent and well-balanced human being with an optimum degree of cultural sophistication. Greater attention then ever before is now paid to close observation of the individual traits and aptitude of nursing students, so as to permit full development of individual capabilities, interests and propensities within the concept of "comprehensive human education. " Purpose of study 1. To determine the degree of understanding of the part of nursing students of the various aspects of the subject taught in undergraduate nursing course. 2. To determine the motivation of nursing students in choosing the profession and possible subsequent change or attitude and outlook in the course of under graduated studies, as a means of presenting a new practical approach in nursing training based on the concept of "comprehensive human education. " Problems of study 1. The environments of nursing training will impinge on individual nursing students with different psychological impacts from lower to upper classes of under graduated studies. 2. Educational environments will have varying psychological impacts on students: a. Difference in religious faith among students. b. Difference in campus environments. c. Difference in domestic (family) circumstances. d. Difference in innate capabilities of students, 3. The understanding and attitude of individual nursing students towards the science of nursing will Have a close correlation with their respective motivations in choosing-nursing as a profession, and will also be closely influenced by the peculiarities of the subject taught, tile campus environments, etc, Delimitations of the study 1. Two universities offering 4-year nursing courses were selected. Due to the limited number of potential subjects, the optimum conditions of sample collection could not be fulfilled. 2. Subjects were confined to two classes in each university (sophomores and seniors) but without regard to the ages or scholastic achievements of individual students. 3. The conclusions derived from this study should be limited in application to the subject groups covered by the present study: they should not in any event be extended or applied to other groups. Procedures 1. Subjects: 40 nursing students each from the sophomore and senior classes of the "Y" and "K" universities situated in Seoul, aggregating 160 students altogether. 2. Instruments: Use has been made of questionnaires on (1) family backgrounds and (2) general information concerning. 3. Statistical Method: The findings of the present survey have been subjected to critical analysis as to the means, percentages, Cgi squares (X), standard deviations and the significance of the difference in means. Findings 1. Nursing students have chosen their subject of study with a confident outlook towards their future in society. 2. Horsing students have the necessary abilities to complete the prescribed courses of study. 3. The campus life of nursing students has been judged as very constructive, not with-standing certain in adequacies in the available educational facilities and the shortages of teaching staff. 4. The achievement levels of nursing trainees varied greatly according to their respective educational environments as well as their school years. 5. Clear and definite distinctions were discernible between the two universities as regards certain aspects of this survey, while no signifiant difference was observed in other: a. Sophomores and seniors in both universities gave nearly identical answers to questions concerning (1) motivation in choosing nursing as a profession, and (2) the way of spending leisure hours. b. Both universities revealed similar respective differences between sophomores and seniors as regards the abilities of fulfilling academic requirements ill the basic subjects. c. Educational environments have been found to be somewhat superior in the "Y"university to those of the "K" university, particularly as regard general campus and dormitory conditions. d. The high degree of dissatisfaction with the faculty, found in both universities, was considered to be a consequence of the universal phenomenon of "brain drain" and the relative neglect of the "comprehensive approach"in education.

  • The change of society has brought about various health problems which have become to demand comprehensive health services not only for individuals but also for families and communities as the unit. To meet the societal needs W Hospital in a rural Korea established a Department of Community Health Nursing Services and provided nursing services to patients under a early discharge program. This study is to evaluate the community health nursing services carried out the department in general, and has following specific objectives : 1. To learn attitude of the consumers and the "referees" toward early discharge program. 2. To find out attitude toward home care and cure services. 3. To find out the consumers and the "Referees" attitude toward the 15 selected home cue and cure activities by public health nurse. 4. To investigate possibility of charging fee for the 15 selected home care and cure activities by public health nurse. Three different study population were chosen: namely the consumer, the "referee" I and II. Excluding families moved out and not able to be contacted, the total families (77) referred to the department during the study period of September 1974 - December 1975 are defined as the consumer. Thirty seven nurses among 81 nurses who have been working in W Hospital since the inception of the Community Health Nursing Service Program were randomly selected. Thirty two nurses were defined as the "referee"I, because 5 questionnaires were not able to be collected. Twenty four doctors out of 37 who have been working since the Community Health Nursing Service Program started, and who were able to contact were called as the "referee" II. Data collection method employed for the consumers was direct interviewing with preposed interview schedules, and for the "referees"questionnaire method was utilized. x$^2$test and 100-percentage were employed in analyzing the data. The study findings are follows: 1. Attitude toward early discharge: Above 85% of the consumers and the "referees" approved the early discharge: Above 85% of the consumers and the "referees" approved the early discharge program. 2. Attitude toward the home care and cure services: Above 75% of the consumers and the "referees" showed positive attitude toward the home care and cure services by public health nurses. 3. Attitude toward 15 selected home care and curative activities by public health nurses: On the average more than 50% of the consumers and the "referees" expressed an affirmative attitude to perform 15 selected home care and cure services by public health nurses. 4. Attitude toward charging fee for 15 selected home care and curative activities by public health nurses: Above 85% of the consumers thought that they would pay for the services. Only 12.8% of the consumers and 5% of the "referees" what to have the services for nothing. Based upon the findings of this study; That is, the home care and cure services to be given by public health nurse were positively responded by the consumers and the pro-fissionable, one can conclude that the services provided by the Department of Community Health Nursing Service of W Hospital have been well accepted, and that early discharge program of hospital is believed to be a means to lessen the expenses of patients from hospitalization and to promote recovery from illness. It is recommended that hospital centered cure services should be reconsidered and scrutinized to meet community health needs. NOTE : "referees" are nurses and doctors who refer the early discharged Patient to the Department of Community Health Nursing Service.

  • Much of a person's energy is spent in the effort of becoming a productive member of to-day's complex society. This activity may cause tension, and chronic unrelieved tension is an influential factor in blood pressure elevation. The problem of this study was to identify manifest needs and self-actualization of patients with essential hypertension, and to analyse and compare their manifest needs and selt-actualization with the selected general characteristics of We, sex, religion, occupation and level of education with a control group of patients with normal blood pressure readings. The purpose was to contribute to the planning of nursing interventions toward reducing the impact of complex psycho-somatic factors on the anxiety of patients with essential hypertension. The instruments used included selected items from the Edwards (1959) Personal Preference Schedule (EPPS) as adapted by Hwang (1965) and from the Personal Orientation Inventory (POI) (Shostrom 1964, 1974) adapted by Kim and Lee (1977) to measure manifest needs and self-actualization. The convenience sample was chosen from 149 persons who presented themselves for general physical examinations at Ewha University Medical Centre and 41 patients diagnosed with essential hypertension at three general hospitals in Seoul during June 1 and August 31, 1977. Forty-nine persons from the Ewha group with blood-pressure readings exceeding 150/90 were added to the experimental group. Data were analysed by the S.P.S.S. computer programme using t-test and tests for statistical significance. Statistically significant findings were as follows: A. Blood Pressure and Manifest Needs. 1. with the exception of Autonomy, patients with hypertension had significantly high scores on all variables Abasement, Achievement, Affiliation, Aggression, Dominance, Emotionality, Exhibitionism and Sex. 2. When mean scores of normal persons were compared by age groups, normal persons had higher scores in the following order on Abasement (50's, 40's, 20's, 30's), Achievement (50's, 30's, 40's, 20's), Affiliation (50's, 40's, 30's, 20's), Dominance (50's, 40's, 40's, 20's) and Exhibitionism (30's, 50's, 40's, 20's). In each case, there was a significant difference between the first and last age group scores. 3. When the mean scores of normal persons were compared by sex, normal men had higher scores than women on Achievement, Affiliation, Aggression, Dominance, Exhibitionism and Sex. Male patients had higher scores than female patients on Achievement, Dominance, Exhibitionism and Sex, but female patients scored higher in Emotionality. 4. Normal persons had higher scores related to religion in the following order on Achievement (Buddhism, no religion, Christianity). Hyper tensive patients had higher scores on. Exhibitionism (no religion, Christianity, Buddhism). 5. Normal persons had higher scores related to occupation in the following order on Achievement and Exhibitionism (unemployed, office workers, teachless, businessmen), Emotionality (office workers, unemployed, businessmen, teacher) and Sex (office workers, unemployed, teachers, businessmen). Hypertensive patients had higher scores on Achievement and Aggression (teachers, businessmen, office worker, unemployed), Dominance and Exhibitionism (businessmen, teacher, of ace workers, unemployed) and Sex (teachers, office worker, businessmen, unemployed). 6. Normal persons had higher scores related to level of edification in the following order on Abasement, Emotionality and Autonomy (secondary school graduation, university). Hypertensive patients had higher scores on Abasement (no education, primary, university, secondary), Achievement (no education, secondary, university, primary) , Dominance (university, no education, secondary, primary), Exhibitionism (university, secondary, no education, primary), and Sex (university, secondary, primary, no education). B. Blood Pressure and Self_Actualization 1, Patients with hypertension had significantly lower scores on all variables. 2. Normal persons had higher scores related to age groups in the following order on Existentiality (20's, 30's, 40's, 50's). Hypertensive patients showed no significantly different scores. 3. Normal women had higher scores than men on Time Competence. Normal men had higher scores on Feeling Reactivity. Male patients had higher scores than women on Self-Actualizing Value and Self-Regard. 4. Normal persons ha 1 higher scores related to religion on spontaneity (Buddhism, no religion, Christianity). Hypertensive patients had higher scores on Time Competence and Nature of Man (Buddhism, Christianity, no religion). 5. Normal persons had higher scores related to occupation in the following order on Existentiality (teachers, office workers, businessmen, unemployed) and Self-Regard (unemployed, office workers, teachers, businessmen). Hypertensive patients showed no significantly different scores. 6. Normal persons had higher scores related to level of education in the following order on Existentiality and Self-Acceptance (university, secondary). Hypertensive patients had higher scores on inner-Director (university, secondary, no education, primary) and Existentiality (university, secondary, primary, no education). Recommendations for nursing interventions with hypertensive patients with emotional problems or low self-actualization were made. 1. The nurse should encourage the patient through her interactions with other members of the medical team to accept counselling and health education. 2. Through her therapeutic interpersonal relationships with the patient, the nurse should help him discover the causes of his emotional tension. 3. Through her health teaching with the family, the nurse should encourage them to participate with the medical team in the patient's therapeutic plan and in providing him with the minimum possible emotional support. 4. Through frequent counselling with the obsessive-thinking and inflexible patient, the nurse should reevaluate the patient's behaviour and her interventions. 5. Seriously ill patients should be given needed reeducation by members of the professional medical team.

KJO는 이 기간 동안의 모든 논문을 연구대상으로 하였고 AJODO는 각 해마다 50편의 논문을 original article이면서 통계기법을 사용한 논문들 중에서 무작위로 추출하였다. 빈번히 사용된 통계기법은 KJO의 논문에서는 t-검정, 분산분석, 상관분석. 비모수분석, 회귀분석, $x^2-$검정. 요인 분석의 순이었고 AJODO의 논문에서는 t-검정. 분산분석. 비모수분석, 상관분석, 회귀분석, $x^2$-검정, 요인분석의 순이었다. 5년 동안의 통계기법의 변화를 살펴본 결과 KJO에서는 유의한 변화를 관찰할 수 없었으나$(x^2=17.38,\;p = 0.6881)$ AJODO에서는 유의한 변화를 관찰할 수 있었다.$(x^2=42.41,\;p =0.0397)$ 각 통계분석에 해당하는 가정의 점검을 간과한 경우가 있었으며 통계분석 전에 이상치 등의 자료의 탐색이 필요하며 소표본일 경우 좀 더 다른 통계적 접근 방법이 필요하다 고급통계기법으로는 KJO에서는 인자분석과 판별분석을 통해 부정교합자에게 적용이 가능한 골격유형의 감별기준을 도출하였고 AJODO에서는 다기관센터를 통한 임상시험에서 ITT분석을 실시하였으며 생존분석 죈 GEE분석을 실시하였다. 단순한 통계기법만으로는 정확한 자료의 분석이 행해졌다고 보기는 어렵고 자료와 가설에 맞는 단변수 분석후의 다변량 통계 분석 방법을 통하여 정확한 결론을 유추해 내는 노력이 필요하다 치과학 분야의 자료의 특성 중 하나는 서로 상관관계가 높으며 반복 측정치를 가지는 것인데, 올바른 통계기법을 도입하여 그 결과에 대한 바른 해석을 할 수 있도록 해야 하겠다.

  • Ch'ang-Ts'al-Ts'un is a rural Village near Lung-jing City in Yen-pien Korean Autonomous Province of China. It was formed about 100 years ago by Korean Immigrants and has been developed maintaing the characteristics of traditional Korean architecture. Therefore investigating the spatial structure of this village is a meanigful work to confirm and explore one branch of Korean architecture. This study aims at analyzing the spatial structure of the village using direct data collected from the field work and indirect data from books and maps. The field work consists of on-the-site survey of the village layout, interviews of residents, observation notes and photography. Ch'ang-Ts'ai-Ts'un is located 360-370 m high above the sea level and at the side of a long valley. A river flows in the middle of the valley and relatively flat arable land exists at the both sides of the river. The location of the village related to the surrounding river and mountains suggests that the site of the village was chosen according to Feng-Shui, Chinese and Korean traditional architectural theory. The main direction of the house layouts is South-western. The village has been growing gradually until today. Therefore it is meaningful to make the village layout before Liberation(1946 A.D.) because the characteristics of Korean architecture prevailed more in that period. The area of the previous village is limited to the west side of the creek. New houses were later added to the east of the creek, forming a 'New Village'. Previously the village was composed of 3 small villages: Up, Middle and Down. Also the main access roads connecting the village with the neighboring villages were penetrating the village transversely. Presently the main access road comes to the village longitudinally from the main highway located in front of the village. The retrospective layout shows the existence of well-formed Territory, Places and Axes, thus suggesting a coherent Micro-cosmos. The boundary of imaginery territory perceived by present residents could be defined by linking conspicous outside places sorrounding the village such as Five-mountains, Front-mountain, Shin-dong village, Standing-rock, Rear-mountain and Myong-dong village. Inside the territory there are also the important places such as Bus-stop, Memorial tower of patriots, Road-maitenance building and the village itself. And inside it 5 transverse and 1 longitudinal axes exist in the form of river, roads and mountains. The perceived spatial structure of the village formed by Places, Axes and Territory is geometrical and well-balanced and suggests this village is fit for human settlement. The administrative area of the village is about 738 ha, 27 % of which is cultivated land and the rest is mountain area. Initially the village and surrounndings were covered with natural forest But the trees have been gradually cut down for building and warning houses, resulting in the present barren and artificial landscape with bare mountains and cultivated land. At present the area of the village occupied by houses is wedge-shaped, 600 m wide and 220 m deep in its maximum. The total area of the village is $122,175m^{2}$. The area and the rate of each sub-division arc as follow. 116 house-lots $91,465m^{2}$ (74.9 %) Land for public buildings and shops $2,980m^{2}$ (2.4 %) Roads $17,106m^{2}$ (14.0 %) Creek $1,356m^{2}$ (1.1 %) Vacant spaces and others $9,268m^{2}$ (7.6 %) TOTAL $122,175m^{2}$ (100.0 %) Each lot is fenced around with vertical wooden pannels 1.5-1.8 m high and each house is located to the backside of the lot. The open space of a lot is sub-divided into three areas using the same wooden fence: Front yard, Back yard and Access area. Front and back yards are generally used for crop-cultivation, the custom of which is rare in Korea. The number of lots is 116 and the average size of area is $694.7m^{2}$. Outdoor spaces in the village such as roads, vacant spaces, front yard of the cultural hall, front yard of shops and spacse around the creek are good 'behavioral settings' frequently used by residents for play, chatting, drinking and movie-watching. The road system of the village is net-shaped, having T-junctions in intersections. The road could be graded to 4 categories according to their functions: Access roads, Inner trunk roads, Connecting roads and Culs-de-sac. The total length of the road inside the village is 3,709 m and the average width is 4.6 m. The main direction of the road in the village is NNE-SSE and ESE-WNW, crossing with right angles. Conclusively, the spatial structure of Ch'ang-Ts'ai-Ts'un village consists of various components in different dimensions and these components form a coherent structure in each dimension. Therefore the village has a proper spatial structure meaningful and appropriate for human living.

  • Adenosine deaminase (ADA) is an enzyme which is essential for the differentiation of lymphoid cells, especially T-cells and ADA plays a role in the maturation of monocyte to macrophage. Therefore ADA levels are related to stimulation of cellular immunity. We have investigated the measurement of ADA activity in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of the patients with active and inactive pulmonary tuberculosis and control group. The results obtained are as follows: 1) The ADA activity and corrected ADA activity from the BAL fluid in active tuberculosis group (Total Lavage ADA; $18.4{\pm}22.5\;mU$, Total Lavage ADA/Albumin; $2.45{\pm}1.61\;mU/mg$) were increased when compared with those in inactive tuberculosis (TL-ADA; $5.8{\pm}2.5\;mU$, TL-ADA/Alb; $1.83{\pm}O.53\;mU/mg$) and control (TL-ADA; $6.6{\pm}4.3\;mU$, TL-ADA/Alb; $1.62{\pm}0.60\;mU/mg$) groups. 2) The ADA activity and lavage ADA/serum ADA activity ratio in BAL fluid from the lesion site (TL-ADA; $42.9{\pm}42.3\;mU$, L-ADA/S-ADA; $0.53{\pm}0.32$) were increased when compared with those from the non-lesion site (TL-ADA; $12.5{\pm}11.2\;mU$, L-ADA/S-ADA; $0.29{\pm}0.12$)and normal side (TL-ADA; $12.7{\pm}11.0\;mU$, L-ADA/S-ADA; $0.34{\pm}0.27$) in active tuberculosis group. 3) The ADA activity in BAL fluid from far advanced group (TL-ADA; $62.5{\pm}30.3\;mU$) was increased when compared with those from the mild group (TL-ADA; $10.5{\pm}7.5\;mU$) and moderate advanced group (TL-ADA; $13.2{\pm}11.7\;mU$) in active tuberculosis. 4) The albumin level from the BAL fluid was correlated with the ADA activity (R=0.89). 5) The ADA activity recovered from the BAL fluid was correlated with the recovered lymphocyte percentage (R=0.60). In conclusion, the ADA activity from the BAL fluid in active tuberculosis group was increased when compared with that in inactive tuberculosis and control groups, especially from the lesion site. To evaluated the specificity of ADA determination for diagnosis of active tuberculosis, BAL must be done at lesion site of the diseased lung and the proper correcting material other than albumin must be chosen to correct the dilution factor of lavage fluid.

  • 연구 목적: 임플란트 식립시에 발생할 수 있는 열변화는 임플란트의 실패를 초래할 수 있다. 식립토크에 따른 열변화 양상을 파악함으로 임플란트의 형태에 따른 차이점과 적절한 식립토크가 어떤 것인지 파악하고자 한다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 실험재료로는 두께 15 - 20 mm의 소 견갑골을 가로 35 mm, 세로 40 - 50 mm 크기가 되도록 골편으로 자르고 이중에 피질골의 두께가 2 - 3 mm 되는 표본을 선정한 후 표본의 반을 $36.5^{\circ}C$ 수조에 실온 $25^{\circ}C$에 노출 시켜 내부 온도는 평균 $36.5^{\circ}C$, 표면온도 $28^{\circ}C$가 되도록 설계하였다. $4.5{\times}10\;mm$의 외부육각을 가지는 Br${\aa}$nemark 형태의 임플란트와 $4.8{\times}10\;mm$의 Microthread 형태를 지니는 내부연결 형태의 임플란트를 과도한 식립토크로 식립하고 온도 측정은 계측점에서 0.2 mm 이내에 열전대를 위치시켜 기록하였다. 삼차원유한요소 분석은 골의 형태를 가로 4 cm, 세로 4 cm, 높이 2 cm의 직육면체로 가정하고, 직육면체 윗면에서 2 mm까지를 피질골, 그 아랫부분을 해면골이라고 가정하였다. 마찰열은 매식이 종료된 상황에서 골에 남는 cavity 모양을 기초로 경계조건을 부여하였다. CAD 프로그램인 SolidWorks 소프트웨어를 이용하였고, 이를 유한요소 구조해석용 프로그램인 Abaqus 6.9-1로 불러들여 해석하였다. 결과 및 결론: In vitro실험에서 Microthread type의 임플란트가 상대적으로 더 높은 최고점 온도를 보여주고 있으며 이는 임플란트의 형태에 따른 마찰열 발생이 주요 원인으로 보인다. 유한요소분석을 통해 살펴본 결과 Br${\aa}$nemark 형태의 임플란트의 경우 50 Ncm이상에서 Microthread를 가지는 형태의 경우에는 35 Ncm이상에서 Eriksson 등이 보고한 역치를 초과하는 온도가 발생하였다. 이를 통해 볼 때 Microthread type 이 식립토크에 따른 온도 증가가 더 민감함을 알 수 있다. 실험결과를 통해서 서로 다른 형태의 임플란트 식립시에 임플란트의 형태에 따라 적절한 삽입토크를 부여하는 것이 성공적인 임플란트 시술에 중요한 요소 중에 하나임을 알 수 있었다. 특히 Microthread를 갖는 임플란트 형태는 높은 초기고정성을 얻을 수 있다는 장점이 있는 반면 과도한 식립 토크로 인한 열 손상 가능성을 가질 수 있으므로 골량과 골질의 신중한 평가와 적절한 수술기법이 필요할 것으로 생각된다.
