Objectives: This study was conducted to compare the post-fracture survival rate of endodontically treated molar endodontically treated teeth (molar ETT) restored with resin composites or crowns and to identify potential risk factors, using a retrospective cohort design. Materials and Methods: Dental records of molar ETT with crowns or composite restorations (recall period, 2015-2019) were collected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The incidence of unrestorable fractures was identified, and molar ETT were classified according to survival. Information on potential risk factors was collected. Survival rates and potential risk factors were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier log-rank test and Cox regression model. Results: The overall survival rate of molar ETT was 87% (mean recall period, 31.73 ± 17.56 months). The survival rates of molar ETT restored with composites and crowns were 81.6% and 92.7%, reflecting a significant difference (p < 0.05). However, ETT restored with composites showed a 100% survival rate if only 1 surface was lost, which was comparable to the survival rate of ETT with crowns. The survival rates of ETT with composites and crowns were significantly different (97.6% vs. 83.7%) in the short-term (12-24 months), but not in the long-term (> 24 months) (87.8% vs. 79.5%). Conclusions: The survival rate from fracture was higher for molar ETT restored with crowns was higher than for ETT restored with composites, especially in the first 2 years after restoration. Molar ETT with limited tooth structure loss only on the occlusal surface could be successfully restored with composite restorations.

Objectives. The age-based Cole formula has been employed for the estimation of endotracheal tube (ETT) size due to its ease of use, but may not appropriately consider growth rates among children. Child growth is assessed by calculating the body surface area (BSA). The association between the outer diameter of an appropriate uncuffed-endotracheal-tube (ETT-OD) and the BSA values of patients at 24-96 months of age was our primary outcome. Methods. Cole formula, BSA, age, height, weight and ultrasound measurement of subglottic-transverse-diameter were evaluated for correlations with correct uncuffed ETT-OD. The Cole formula, BSA, and ultrasound measurements were analyzed for estimation rates in all patients and age subgroups. The maximum allowed error for the estimation of ETT-OD was ${\leq}0.3mm$. Patients' tracheas were intubated with tubes chosen by Cole formula and correct ETT-OD values were determined using leak test. ETT exchange rates were recorded. Results. One-hundred twenty-seven patients were analyzed for the determination of estimation rates. Thirteen patients aged ${\geq}72months$ were intubated with cuffed ETT-OD of 8.4 mm and were accepted to need uncuffed ETT-OD >8.4 mm in order to be included in estimation rates, but excluded from correlations for size analysis. One-hundred fourteen patients were analyzed for correlations between correct ETT-OD (determined by the leak test) and outcome parameters. Cole formula, ultrasonography, and BSA had similar correct estimation rates. All three parameters had higher underestimation rates as age increased. Conclusion. The Cole formula, BSA, and ultrasonography had similar estimation rates in patients aged ${\geq}24$ to ${\leq}96months$. BSA had a correct estimation rate of 40.2% and may not be reliable in clinical practice to predict uncuffed-ETT-size.

The efficacies of a supraglottic airway device (SGAD) and an endotracheal tube (ETT) in cats under general anesthesia with volume-controlled ventilation (VCV) were compared. Thirty healthy cats were randomly allocated for airway control using either an SGAD or an ETT. Five tidal volumes (6, 8, 10, 12, and 14 mL/kg) were randomly tested, and respiratory rates were adjusted to achieve a minute ventilation of 100 mL/kg/min. The dose of propofol necessary to insert the SGAD or ETT, the static respiratory pressure, leakage during VCV, and end tidal CO₂ (ETCO₂) were recorded. Dosages of propofol and static respiratory measurements for the SGAD and ETT groups were compared using a t-test. The distribution of leakages and hypercapnia (ETCO₂ > 45 mmHg) were compared using Fisher's exact test. A significance level of p < 0.05 was established. No significant difference in dose of propofol was observed between the SGAD and ETT groups (7.1 ± 1.0, 7.3 ± 1.7 mg/kg; p = 0.55). Static resistance pressure of the SGAD (22.0 ± 8.1 cmH₂O/L/sec) was significantly lower than that of the ETT (36.6 ± 12.9 cmH₂O/L/sec; p < 0.01). Of the 75 trials, leakage was more frequent when using an SGAD (8 events) than when using an ETT (1 event; p = 0.03). Hypercapnia occurred more frequently with SGAD (18 events) than with ETT (3 events; p < 0.01). Although intubation with an ETT is the gold standard in small animal anesthesia, the use of an SGAD can reduce airway resistance and the work of breathing. Nonetheless, SGAD had more dead space and the tidal volume for VCV needs adjustment.

ERP(Enterprise Resource Planning) 시스템의 성공적인 도입 및 운영에 있어 교육은 핵심성공 요인 중 하나로 밝혀져 있다. 그러나 ERP시스템 벤더와 도입 기업 모두 실제 프로세스 처리 사례의 정형화된 정보를 제공하지 못해 사용자에게 효과적인 비즈니스 프로세스 교육 방안을 제시 못하고 있는 실정이다. 또한, ERP 시스템에 대한 벤더의 불완전한 테스팅은 결국 불충분하고 비효과적인 사용자 교육으로 이어지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 ERP 시스템의 테스팅과 교육용 시나리오를 작성하기 위한 프레임웍인 SF-ETT (Scenario Framework for ERP Testing and Training)를 제시하고 있다. SF-ETT는 uniERPII를 위한 통합 테스트 시나리오 프로젝트를 통해 정립된 프랙티스 기반 ERP 테스팅 시나리오 작성 프레임웍을 확장하여 설계된 것이다. SF-ETT는 ERP 시스템의 사용자가 실질적으로 이해하는 비즈니스 프로세스의 실체를 기반하여 구성되어 프랙티스(Practice) 정의, 표기 방법, 프레임웍 구조를 제시한다.

Many enterprises continue to have an interest in the usage of new information technologies to gain a competitive advantage. In particular, their interest in the data warehouse and the data mining reveals the aspect of such a trend. Although lots of vendors announce a variety of tools for data warehousing, many a enterprise have a difficulty in building a robust data warehouse due to the lack of the ability of selecting an appropriate data warehouse technology options. Therefore, this study presents some evaluation factors, evaluation methods, and evaluation results about ETT tools, mainly in terms of a comparative test for the current available data warehousing ETT tools, Also, this paper suggests some guides about choosing the right ETT tools.

Effective Training has been recognized as one of the most important success factors for enterprise resource planning (ERP) system operations. However, both ERP system vendors and user companies have failed to provide an effective training method for users because practical business process cases cannot be formalized. Also, incomplete testing by ERP system vendors results in insufficient and ineffective user training. This paper suggests a scenario framework for ERP testing and training (SF-ETT). SF-ETT is constructed by expanding the practice-based ERP testing scenario construction framework designed for uniERPII. SF-ETT contains concrete business process entities that users understand actually and provides practice definition, notation, and architecture.

노드들이 무선으로 연결되어 통신하는 점에서 Ad-Hoc과 비슷한 점을 가지고 있는 Wireless Mesh Network는 하위 단말에 대한 기본 연결구조(Infrastructure)를 제공하는 것에 중점을 두고 있다. Wireless Mesh Network의 노드는 이동이 거의 없으며 데이터 흐름이 많고 QoS를 만족시켜야 히는 트래픽이 많이 존재하므로 데이터 전송을 위한 성능이 좋은 경로를 선택해야만 한다. 본 논문에서는 Wireless Mesh Network의 라우팅 방법을 위해 제안한 ETX, ETT 그리고 WCETT가 가지는 간섭 문제를 해결하기 위해 물리적인 간섭모텔을 적용하였다. 보다 향상된 간섭 측정으로 성능이 좋은 경로를 선택하기 위한 ETI(Expected Transmission Interference)를 제안하였고, 실험을 통해 성능이 향상됨을 보였다.

Data warehouse(DW) manages all information in a Enterprise and also offers the specific information to users. However, it might be difficult to develope an effective DW system due to varieties in computing facilities, data base, and operating systems. The heterogeneous system environments make it harder to extract data and to provide proper information to usesr in real time. Also commonly occurred is data inconsistency of non-integrated legacy system, which requires an effective and efficient data extraction flow control as well as data cleansing. We design the integrated automatic ETT(Extraction Transformation Transportation) system to control data extraction flow and suggest implementation methodology. Detail analysis and design are given to specify the proposed ETT approach with a real implementation.

Damage to the endotracheal tube (ETT) during oral and maxillofacial surgeries is a rare but serious intraoperative complication. Herein, we present a case of a partially damaged ETT that was repaired using Dermabond surgical adhesive (Ethicon, Sommerville, NJ, USA) during a Lefort osteotomy. Dermabond surgical adhesive can be a simple and viable tool to repair partially transected ETTs where ETT exchange carries a high risk of airway loss. Our case adds to one of the several techniques for managing damaged ETT in an intraoperative setting.
