Various biological approaches to the promotion of periodontal regeneration have been used. These can be divided into the use of growth and differentiation factors, application of extracellular matrix proteins and attachment factors and use of mediators of bone metabolism. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of enamel matrix protein and platelet-rich plasma on the treatment of intrabony defect, with bovine-derived bone powder in humans by digital subtraction radiography. 12 teeth(experimental I group) were treated with enamel matrix protein combined with bovine-derived bone powder and 12 teeth(experimental II group) were treated with platelet-rich plasma combined with bovine-derived bone powder. The change of bone density was assessed by digital subtraction radiography in this study. The change of mineral content was assessed in the method that two radiography were put into computer program to be overlapped and the previous image was subtracted by the later one. Both groups were statistically analyzed by Wilcoxon signed Ranks Test and Mann-whitney Test using SPSS program for windows(5% significance level). The results were as follows: 1. The radiolucency in 3 months after surgery was significantly increased than 1 month after surgery in both groups(experimental I and II groups)(p<0.05). 2. The radiopacity in 6 months after surgery was significantly increased than 3 months after surgery in both groups(experimental I and II groups) (p<0.05). 3. In experimental I group, there was no significant difference between 1 month and 6 months after surgery. 4. In experimental II group. the radiopacity in 6 months after surgery was significantly increased than 1 month after surgery(p<0.05). 5. There was no significant difference between experimental I and II group at 1 month and 3 months after surgery, but the radiopacity in experimental II group was significantly increased at 6 months after surgery(p<0.05). In conclusion, platelet-rich plasma can enhance bone density than enamel matrix protein until 6 months after surgery.

Since sewer rehabilitation program requires long construction period and enormous capital investment, determination of rehabilitation priorities is important with systematic planning considering appropriate evaluation parameters. In this research, we applied PROMETHEE(Preference Ranking Organization METHod for Evaluations) known as very objective and scientific multi-criteria decision-making analysis, using the weights determined by AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process) for the selected sewer evaluation items to calculate the rehabilitation priorities for each sewer sub-catchment in basin Gusan 1 of Seoul. Preference functions and preference thresholds were estimated for each criterion of ratio of lack of hydraulic capacity of sewers, defect ratio, ratio of sewers with velocity less than its minimum criteria, and density of sewers in the sub-catchment. As a result, it was found that region d had the first priority among four sub-catchments. For each and every sewer located in region d, we could also rank sewers to be rehabilitated urgently.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to identify the association between oral health status and pulmonary ventilatory defects. Methods: The 6th (2013-2015) National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data was used. The study subjects were those aged 40-79 who had pulmonary function examination. Complex samples general linear model analysis, Complex samples cross-tabulation analysis, and Complex samples logistic regression analysis were conducted. Results: In terms of restrictive ventilatory defects, the study subjects (8.3%) who recognized that their oral health status was bad outnumbered those who recognized that their oral health status was good (6.1%) (p<0.05). Many of the study subjects who experienced difficulty in biting, chewing and/or speech, and who had an unhealthy periodontal had restrictive ventilatory defects and obstructive ventilatory defects (p<0.05). The association between oral health status and pulmonary ventilatory defects was analyzed. The findings showed that those who had unhealthy periodontal had a 1.33 times higher probability of pulmonary ventilatory defects than those who had a healthy periodontal (p<0.05). After taking into account general characteristics (age, sex, incomes, education, and smoking) of the subjects, the association between oral health status and pulmonary ventilatory defects was analyzed. The result found that only in cases where one experienced dental caries was an association with pulmonary ventilatory defects found. In other words, those who had dental caries showed a 0.73 times higher probability of pulmonary ventilatory defects than those who had no dental caries (p<0.05). Conclusions: Based on the findings of this research, oral health status was found to be associated with pulmonary ventilatory defects. To improve oral health, it is necessary to provide life-cycle stages based oral health education. Therefore, it is required to develop an oral health education program and develop a national oral health policy.

The purpose of this study is grasp the problem of the gymnast, Kim, Dong-Hwa's Kip to Swallow Motion in Rings, and make up for the weak points to help him to perform a better performance. Therefore, two tryouts for $28^{th}$ Athens Olympic Games were filmed using video camera then finalized with Kinematical Analysis using 3D motion analysis program followings are the form of conclusions. 1. In the very first tryout, when he was doing a Swallow Support Scale, his CM position was high and arm slope was deduction because when he was doing Kip, the ascent velocity was low and he tried excessively to pull him on rings due to relying upon angular movement of shoulder joint. 2. When he was doing drop, he let his hip angle bend only little bit and let fall so making shoulder angle wider and maintain the level horizontally occurs strong drop motion when vertical descent is happening. 3. As a result, lowering the direction of a kick makes CM's movement path lower, increase vertical ascent velocity, and it helps to do the Swallow Support motion in short period of time. 4. After a strong drop motion, which is deep and fast, would make rope of ring shake so there is a defect that the body moves to forward area. However, it does not effect in Swallow Support Scale motion. 5. In the second tryout, trunk rotation angle and arm slope was fixed decrease while doing rotary motion. When rotary motion was happening, before the body was going under the rings, maintained his arm slope horizontally so his Swallow Support Scale motion was nearly perfect.

As an economic, high quality, and highly reliable gear with low noise and low vibration is demanded, an overall finite element analysis regarding a gear is required. Also, an infrared thermography test, which is a quantitative testing technique, is demanded for safety and longer lifespan of gear products. In order to manufacture a gear product or to determine safety of a gear being used, it is necessary to precisely determine ingredients of a material constituting a gear and detect any internal defect. This study aims to realize a design that minimizes the spur gear displacement with respect to power during its rotation and ensures the spur gear control capacity by using a 3D model and the midasNFX program. This facilitates the assessment of the possibility of cracking by evaluating the stress intensity and focusing on the integrity of the spur gear. We prepare the specimen of the spur gear based on the possibility of cranking as per the result of the structural interpretation from an infrared ray thermal measuring technique. After cooling the spur gear, we perform experiments using thermography and halogen lamps and analyze the temperature data according to the results of the experiment. In the experiment which we use thermography after cooling, we find a rise in the temperature of the room. As a result, the defective part show temperatures lower than their surroundings while the normal parts have temperatures higher than the defective parts. Therefore, it possible to precisely identify defective part owing to its low temperature.

Due to the larger and high-speed vessels recently constructed, output and speed of the engines for propulsion or power generation is increasing. These high-power and high-speed engine of the ship is becoming as a major contributor causing excessive noise and vibration. Other fittings as well as equipment installed on board, it makes equipment failure or other defect by resonance. This causes a lot of M/H(Man Hour) for repairs and the reliability of the company is invading even be negative because the clients give much comment. Thus, it's being studied for any fittings installed on board to maintain the safe operation and to prevent any problem during the performance in any operating conditions. In this study, it was investigated to solve these problems for the supports of the various fittings for easy installation-related support that each type of intensity and shape and manufacturing method using structural analysis program(DNV Nauticus Hull 3D Beam). Namely, it would be applied to the very large crude carriers in consideration of mechanics of materials of the support equipment by providing the fact that dynamics analysis of the structural characteristics of the equipment and the support of the production installation is easy and productivity can be high standards for geometry and thereby to simplify the analysis task to design changes at the same time and to minimize the reinforcement for the supports.

게이트 심근관류 SPECT의 정량적 평가를 위해 사용되는 자동화된 정량화 소프트웨어(AutoQUANT)는 획득 자료 처리과정에 따라 측정치 오차가 발생할 것으로 예상된다. 동일한 환자를 대상으로 다른 조건의 변화 없이 QPS (Quantitative Perfusion SPECT) 프로그램에서 Myocardial extract 전후에 따른 정량적 지표를 구하여 평가하고자 한다. 2010년 6월부터 2010년 12월까지 부산대학교병원 핵의학과에서 Tc-99m MIBI 게이트 심근관류 SPECT를 시행한 환자 중 51명(남:여=34:17, 평균나이 $66.45{\pm}9.92$)을 대상으로 하였다. 심근의 단축단면상을 이용하여 원형 관심영역은 배후영역을 제외한 심근영역에서 설정한 자료를 획득하였다. AutoQUANT를 이용한 QPS 프로그램에서 일과성허혈확장(Transient Ischemic Dilation, TID), 부하기 관류결손 범위율의 합(Extent of Stress Defect, ESD)과 부하기 관류점수 합(Summed Stress Score, SSS)을 구하여 비교 분석하였다. QPS 프로그램에서 Myocardial extract 적용 전과 적용 후 정량적 지표의 상관계수는 TID (r=0.98), ESD (r=0.99), SSS (r=0.99) 모두 좋은 상관관계를 보였다. 95% 신뢰수준에서 TID (p=0.78), ESD (p=0.31), SSS (p=0.19) 모두 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다. 육안분석에서는 판독에 영향을 줄 수 있을 만한 영상의 차이는 발견할 수 없었다. QPS 프로그램에서 Myocardial extract 적용 전과 적용 후 정량적 지표(TID, ESD, SSS)는 모두 좋은 상관관계가 있다는 것을 확인할 수 있었고, 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. Myocardial extract 영상처리기법이 비교적 간단하여 심근관류 SPECT 영상의 질을 올릴 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Purpose: The zygoma (Zygomaticomaxillary) complexes make up a large portion of the orbital floor and lateral orbital walls. Zygoma fracture frequently causes the posteromedial displacement of bone fragments, and the collapse or overlapping of internal orbital walls. This process consequently can lead to the orbital volume change. The reduction of zygoma in an anterolateral direction may influence on the potential bone defect area of the internal orbital walls. Thus we performed the quantitative analysis of orbital volume change in zygoma fracture before and after operation. Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of preoperative and postoperative three-dimensional computed tomography scans in 39 patients with zygoma fractures who had not carried out orbital wall reconstruction. Orbital volume measurement was obtained through Aquarius Ver. 4.3.6 program and we compared the orbital volume change of injured orbit with that of the normal contralateral orbit. Results: The average orbital volume of normal orbit was 19.68 $cm^3$. Before the operation, the average orbital volume of injured orbit was 18.42 $cm^3$. The difference of the orbital volume between the injured orbit and the normal orbit was 1.18 $cm^3$ (6.01%) on average. After operation, the average orbital volume of injured orbit was 20.81 $cm^3$. The difference of the orbital volume between the injured orbit and the normal orbit was 1.17 $cm^3$ (5.92%) on average. Conclusion: There are considerable volume changes in zygoma fracture which did not accompany internal orbital wall fracture before and after operation. Our study reflects the change of bony frame, also that of all parts of the orbital wall, in addition to the bony defect area of orbital floor, in an isolated zygoma fracture so that it evaluates orbital volume change more accurately. Thus, the measurement of orbital volume in isolated zygoma fractures helps predict the degree of enophthalmos and decide a surgical plan.

본 연구에서는 1995년부터 2008년까지 14년간 국내에서 발생한 5.100건의 가스사고사례를 수집하여 Database를 구축하였으며, 이를 근거로 세부형태 및 원인별로 분석하였다. Poisson 분석법을 적용하여 전체 도시가스사고를 분석한 결과, 향후 5년 동안 "취급부주의-폭발-배관"의 항목의 사고발생확률이 가장 높았으며, "연결이완부식-누출-배관"의 경우는 가장 작은 발생 확률을 나타내었다. 또한 LPG 기화기 관련 사고만을 분석한 결과는 "LPG-기화기-화재"가 가장 높은 사고발생확률을 나타냈으며, "LPG-기화기-제품결함"이 가장 낮은 사고발생확률인 것으로 분석되었다. 아울러 Jet fire를 수반하는 외국의 LPG 사고를 비교 분석한 결과 국내의 경우와 마찬가지로 설비적 결함인 액유출장치 및 열교환기의 결함이 Jet fire를 일으키는 주요 원인으로 분석되었지만 향후 5년간 사고발생횟수는 "LPG-설비적결함-Jet fire" 항목이 가장 많았고, "LPG-설비적결함-Vapor Cloud" 항목은 가장 사고발생확률이 높은 것으로 분석되었다. 향후 가스 사고 발생 예측프로그램에 Poisson 분포 이론을 접목함으로서 일관성 있는 기준제시 및 현장에서 실제적으로 사용할 수 있는 도구로 사용되길 기대한다.
