  • This report presents two cases concerning strategies for improving denture retention in pediatric patients with oligodontia caused by hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED). Both patients presented with multiple missing teeth, conical canines, alveolar bone atrophy, and a skeletal Class III tendency. In the first case, a modified form of conical-crown-retained denture was used to cover the canines. This approach was carried out without tooth extraction or coping. In the second case of severe alveolar bone resorption and a distally tilted lower left canine, the tooth was restored with a hybrid ceramic crown. It was subsequently converted into a clasp-retained removable partial denture, utilizing a suction mechanism. Both patients are currently receiving regular check-ups for the maintenance of their prosthetic appliances and the evaluation of their growth patterns. This study presents innovative prosthetic treatment methods for pediatric patients with HED who have inadequate denture retention.

  • The new formular for herbal medicine-safety classification in terms of evidence-based medicine was developed and applied to evaluate various herbal medicines in the previous study. This study is aimed to evaluate the frequently-used herbal medicines inducing toxic metabolites or reactive intermediates(RI), such as Ligusticum wallichii Franch, Angelica sinensis, Glycyrrhizae Radix, Rehmanniae Radix, based on 6 safety grades calculated from human equivalent dose(HED)-based MOS(margin of safety). HED-based MOS can be explained as the ratio of theoretical ALD(approximate lethal dose) of human as $LD_1$(lethal dose of 1%)/ clinical maximum dose as $ED_{99}$(Effective dose of 99%). The herbal medicine showing the ratio less than 1 belongs to Class 1, but the herbal medicine showing the ratio more than 500 belongs to Class 6 with the lowest toxicity. As a result, they were evaluated as class 2 for Angelica sinensis and Glycyrrhizae Radix, class 3 for Ligusticum wallichii Franch and Rehmanniae Radix. These resultant grades for 4 herbal medicines were lower than the grade expected under consideration that these herbal medicines are used very frequently in oriental clinics. These low grades would be due to their ingredients which is biotransformed to toxic metabolites.

  • Objective: This study was determined the influence of virginiamycin supplementation on growth-performance and characteristics of digestion of cattle with decreasing dietary net energy value of the diet for maintenance ($NE_m$) from 2.22 to 2.10 Mcal/kg. Methods: Eighty crossbred beef steers ($298.2{\pm}6.3kg$) were used in a 152-d performance evaluation consisting of a 28-d adaptation period followed by a 124-d growing-finishing period. During the 124-d period steers were fed either a lesser energy dense (LED, $2.10Mcal/kg\;NE_m$) or higher energy dense (HED, $2.22Mcal/kg\;NE_m$) diet. Diets were fed with or without 28 mg/kg (dry matter [DM] basis) virginiamycin in a $2{\times}2$ factorial arrangement. Four Holstein steers ($170.4{\pm}5.6kg$) with cannulas in the rumen (3.8 cm internal diameter) and proximal duodenum were used in $4{\times}4$ Latin square experiment to study treatment effects on characteristics of digestion. Results: Neither diet energy density nor virginiamycin affected average daily gain (p>0.10). As expected, dry matter intake and gain efficiency were greater (p<0.01) for LED- than for HED-fed steers. Virginiamycin did not affect estimated net energy value of the LED diet. Virginiamycin increased estimated NE of the HED diet. During daylight hours when the temperature humidity index averaged $81.3{\pm}2.7$, virginiamycin decreased (p<0.05) ruminal temperature. Virginiamycin did not influence (p>0.10) ruminal or total tract digestion. Ruminal (p = 0.02) and total tract digestion (p<0.01) of organic matter, and digestible energy (p<0.01) were greater for HED vs LED. Ruminal microbial efficiency was lower (p<0.01) for HED vs LED diets. Conclusion: The positive effect of virginiamycin on growth performance of cattle is due to increased efficiency of energy utilization, as effects of virginiamycin on characteristics of digestion were not appreciable. Under conditions of high ambient temperature virginiamycin may reduce body temperature.

  • Test case prioritization methods schedule test cases for execution when we can not practically run all test cases for regression testing. We proposed a new prioritization method that is based on historical execution and mr detection data. And we conducted an experiment to compare the proposed method with existing Random and LRU methods using the fault age under the long run environment as criterion. The experiment shows several interesting results. First, our results show that they are complementary. Random method shows good performance for programs that have many error-detectable test cases and HED is more effective for the programs that can be detected by very small amount of test cases. But LRU is more effective for the programs that have relatively medium amount of error detectable test cases. Next, the performance of prioritization method is affected by the size of test suites. Two experiments that have different size of test suites show considerably different fault ages and performance order. And lastly, the $20\%$ of test cases shows considerably good performance compared to the execution result of the full test suite.

  • In this study, we examine the availability of a cooling patch to enhance the output power of a hybrid energy device (HED) comprising a photovoltaic cell (PVC) and a thermoelectric generator (TEG). The cooling patch attached on the back of the TEG drops the temperature of the PVC via the TEG and makes a large thermal gradient across the TEG under irradiances in a range of 200 to 1000 W/m2. The cooling patch is more effective for the output power of the HED as the irradiance increases, and it enhances the maximum output power of the HED to 42.1 mW at an irradiance of 1000 W/m2. The increment in the maximum output power reaches 27% owing to the attachment of the cooling patch that does not consume any power.

  • The quality control of coarse aggregate among aggregates, which are the main ingredients of concrete, is currently carried out by SPC(Statistical Process Control) method through sampling. We construct a smart factory for manufacturing innovation by changing the quality control of coarse aggregates to inspect the coarse aggregates based on this image by acquired images through the camera instead of the current sieve analysis. First, obtained images were preprocessed, and HED(Hollistically-nested Edge Detection) which is the filter learned by deep learning segment each object. After analyzing each aggregate by image processing the segmentation result, fineness modulus and the aggregate shape rate are determined by analyzing result. The quality of aggregate obtained through the video was examined by calculate fineness modulus and aggregate shape rate and the accuracy of the algorithm was more than 90% accurate compared to that of aggregates through the sieve analysis. Furthermore, the aggregate shape rate could not be examined by conventional methods, but the content of this paper also allowed the measurement of the aggregate shape rate. For the aggregate shape rate, it was verified with the length of models, which showed a difference of ±4.5%. In the case of measuring the length of the aggregate, the algorithm result and actual length of the aggregate showed a ±6% difference. Analyzing the actual three-dimensional data in a two-dimensional video made a difference from the actual data, which requires further research.

  • Esophageal achalasia is a disease with characteristic disorder of esophageal motility. Also, this disorder is known to be predisposing factor of malignancy. Although the incidence of esophageal cancer in patients with achalasia varies widely, the incidence hed been reported from l% to 29% in many articles. It is known that delay in management of achalasia is believed to increase the risk of malignant degeneration. We experience a case with esophageal cancer complicating longstanding esophageal achalasia.
