Allomatrix (Wright Medical Tech, Inc., USA), is a newly designed, injectable putty with a reliable demineralized bone matrix(DBM), derived from human bone. The compound contains 86% DBM and other bone growth factors such as bone morphogenic protein (BMP)-2, BMP-4, insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1, and transforming growth factor (TGF)-${\beta}1$. It has excellent os-teoinduction abilities. In addition, DBM is known to have osteoconduction capacity as a scaffold due to its collagen matrix. This product contains a powder, which is a mix of DBM and surgical grade calcium sulfate as a carrier. A practitioner can blend the powder with calcium sulfate solution, making a putty-type material which has the advantages of ease of handling, better fixation, and no need for a membrane, because it can function as membrane itself. This study reports the clinical and radiographic results of various guided bone regeneration cases using Allomatrix, demonstrating its strong potential as a graft material.

비장약량 또는 장약계수는 어떤 발파에서 파괴대상이 되는 암석의 총 부피 당 또는 총 무게 당 폭약 소비량으로 정의된다. 암석 톤당 또는 입방미터 당 폭약 소비량의 변화는 언제나 암질변화에 대한 좋은 지표가 된다. 광산현장에서는 통상 광석(ore) 톤당 폭약 소비량을 암석에 대한 발파 용이성의 척도로 사용하는 반면, 건설현장에서는 암석 입방미터 당 폭약 소비량을 사용한다. 본 논문에서는 터널발파를 대상으로 하므로 건설현장에서 사용하는 비장약량의 정의를 채택하였다. 지금까지 다양한 터널발파 설계법들이 제안되어 있지만 이런 방법들을 현장에 적용하였을 때 잘 맞지 않는 경우가 많다. 그 이유는 무엇보다 각 나라나 지역별로 암질조건이 서로 상이하기 때문인 것으로 보이며, 이러한 문제는 발파의 설계자나 시공자에게 기술적으로 상당한 부담이 될 수도 있다. 그런데 만일 우리가 주어진 암석에 대한 적정 비장약량을 알고 있다면 발파설계가 매우 쉬워질 수 있을 것이다. 이런 측면에서 본 논문에서는 사전에 결정된 비장약량이 있는 경우 그 비장약량에 맞추어서 터널발파를 설계할 수 있는 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 이 알고리즘은 터널단면 상의 다양한 영역에 서로 다른 구속도를 부여하는 개념을 토대로 하고 있으며, 기존에 알려진 터널발파 설계방법들과 조합하여 사용할 수 있는 경험적인 설계방법이다.

Purpose: Gamma knife radiosurgery (GKR) requires frame positioning because the treatment target should be as close as possible to the center of the frame. The purpose of this study was to identify the level of pin-fixing (PFP) and removal pain (PRP), and the associated factors with the pain undergoing GKR. Methods: A total of 116 patients who underwent GKR for their brain tumor were recruited from C University hospital located in H city, J province. The level of pain was measured by the 10 cm VAS. Results: The level of PFP and PRP were 6.36 and 3.26 points, respectively. Step-wise multiple regressions found that the group who have not perceived numbness after applying 5% EMLA cream was the highest associated factor with PFP, following the time from lidocaine injection to pin-fixation, which explained 21% of total variance of the level of PFP. On the other hand, a group who did not perceive numbness after applying 10% lidocaine spray was the highest factor with PRP, among female patients, which explained 27% of total variance of the level of PRP. Conclusion: Both of PFP and PRP of the stereotactic frame were moderate so that nurses should consider diverse strategies to reduce pain among patients undergoing gamma knife radiosurgery.

The objective of this study was to apply the statistical technique known as design of experiments to optimize the % exhaustion variables for phthalocyanine dyeing of nylon fiber. In this study, a three-factor Central Composite Rotatable Design (CCRD) was used to establish the optimum conditions for the phthalocyanine reactive dyeing of nylon fiber. Temperature, pH and liquor ratio were considered as the variable of interest. Acidic solution with higher temperature and lower liquor ratio were found to be suitable conditions for higher % exhaustion. These three variables were used as independent variables, whose effects on % exhaustion were evaluated. Significant polynomial regression models describing the changes on % exhaustion and % fixation with respect to independent variables were established with coefficient of determination, R2, greater than 0.90. Close agreement between experimental and predicted yields was obtained. Optimum conditions were obtained using surface plots and Monte Carlo simulation techniques where maximum dyeing efficiency is achieved. The significant level of both the main effects and interaction was observed by analysis of variance (ANOVA) approach. Based on the statistical analysis, the results have provided much valuable information on the relationship between response variables and independent variables. This study demonstrates that the CCRD could be efficiently applied for the empirical modeling of % exhaustion and % fixation in dyeing. It also shows that it is an economical way of obtaining the maximum amount of information in a short period of time with least number of experiments.

None of the reports of delayed infection mentioned a latent period exceeding 13 months. we report an infection that developed 18 months after implantation of an absorbable plate. A 16-year-old adolescent girl had undergone reduction and fixation with an absorbable plate for Lefort I and zygomaticomaxillary complex fractures 18 months prior at our hospital. In her most recent hospital visit as an outpatient, abscess was observed in periocular area. Computed tomography revealed sinusitis with an abscess above the infraorbital rim. Wound culture yielded methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Despite conservative treatments, wound state did not improve. Therefore, our department decided to perform surgery. Absorbable plate had been mostly absorbed but remained a bit. Bony depression of infraorbital rim and mucosal exposure of maxillary sinus anterior wall were observed. After the surgery, the patient recovered. We believe that the reason the wound infection and sinusitis manifested at the same time is because of several factor such as alcohol abuse, smoking, and mucosal exposure of maxillary sinus anterior wall. Absorbable plate takes 9 months to 3 years to be completely absorbed, thus we suggest studies with a follow-up of at least 3 years be undertaken to determine the outcomes of patients with many risk factors.

Objective : Delayed hinge fracture (HF) that develops after cervical open door laminoplasty can be a source of postoperative complications such as axial pain. However, risk factors related to this complication remain unclear. We performed a retrospective clinical series to determine risk factors for delayed HF following plate-only open-door cervical laminoplasty. Methods : Patients who underwent plate-only open-door laminoplasty and had available postoperative computed tomography (CT) scans (80 patients with 270 laminae) were enrolled. Hinge status, hinge gutter location, open location, hinge width, number of screws used, operation level, and open angle were observed in the CT to determine radiographic outcome. Demographic data were collected as well. Radiographic and clinical parameters were analyzed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis to determine the risk factors for HF. Results : Univariate logistic regression analysis results indicated poor initial hinge status, medially placed hinge gutter, double screw fixation on the elevated lamina, upper surgical level, and wide open angle as predictors for HF (p<0.05). Initial hinge status seemed to be the most powerful risk factor for HF (p=0.000) and thus was collinear with other variables. Therefore, multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed excluding initial hinge status, and the results indicated that medially placed hinge gutter, double screw fixation on the elevated lamina, and upper surgical level were risk factors for HF after adjustment for other confounding factors. Conclusion : To prevent HF and to draw a successful postoperative outcome after cervical laminoplasty, surgical and clinical precautions should be considered.

수용성 방부처리(AAC, CCA-3, ACQ, CuAz) 소나무 시편의 기상열화에 대한 저항성을 평가하기 위하여 인공촉진열화 방법을 사용하였다. 기상열화에 의한 재색 및 중량변화, 물리적 표면열화, 목재조직의 변화를 종합적으로 고려할 때, AAC 처리시편을 제외한 ACQ, CCA, CuAz 처리시편은 기상열화에 대한 저항성이 있음을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 몇몇 방부처리재가 기상열화에 대하여 저항성을 나타내는 요인탐색을 위해 기상열화 산물을 분석하였는데, 그 결과, ACQ, CCA, CuAz 처리시편에서는 낮은 리그닌 함량이 측정되어 기상열화 저항성을 가지는 처리시편은 리그닌 열화가 적게 일어남을 나타냈다. 이는 방부제 유효성분이 목재 주성분 중 기상열화에 민감한 리그닌 구조에 정착함으로써 리그닌 열화에 대한 저항성이 발현되었기 때문으로 판단된다.

An individual's eating behavior reflects not only the eating habits of past but also the type of them which characterize the next generation's. A great difference had been observed between western and oriental food lifestyle. By the frequent contacts with each other, however, current oriental food lifestyle is apt to be much westernized. But the food culture of Chosun tribe in Yenbeun, in spite of natural, local, cultural and social demographical factor of change, has been almost preserved in basic convention for 140 years. It can be observed in choice, acceptance and fixation of food that the management of traditional food and eating behavior has been subtained preserving their unique tradition in Chosun tribe.

The HyeolRacRon(血絡論) of the YoungChu(靈樞) is one of the section associate with the study of bloodletting(depletion of blood) by acupunture. The bloodletting therapy, one of the treatment of Oriental Medicine, has been advanced in civilization. By studying of this section, I could find some conculution as follows: 1. It is the superficial venules(血絡) that has been included blood stasis which has been interrupted by pathogenic factor(邪氣), and still could not enter into the meridian's line. 2. When bloodletting therapy, we should carefully study of patient's health condition, because doctor's missed acupuncure leads to very serious side effects. 3. External shape of HyeolRac(血絡) is like acu-niddle or muscle, so its thickness and location were not fixed position, its color is redish, and its quality is hard. 4. It is reason of heating that fixation of acu-niddle and muscle fiber.

This study explored the feasibility of using a carburization technique to enhance the ion intensity of isotopic analysis of ultra-trace levels of uranium using thermal ionization mass spectrometry (TIMS). Prior to fixing uranium samples on TIMS filaments, graphite powder suspended in nitric acid was deposited on rhenium filaments. We observed an enhancement of $^{238}U^+$ intensity by a factor of two when carburization was used, and were able to roughly optimize the amount of graphite powder necessary for carburization. The positive shift in heating current when evaporating filaments upon carburization implies that uranium was chemically altered by carburization, when compared to normal fixation processes. The good agreement between our method and known standards down to an ultra-trace level shows that the proposed technique can be applied to isotopic uranium analysis down to abundances of ~10 pg.
