본 연구목적은 여자성인교정을 위한 치료목표를 수립하기 위한 기준을 설정하는데 있다. 이용된 연구자료는 96명의 한국인 TV탈랜트와 영화배우 또는 패션모델중 교합과 안모를 평가하여 선정된 30명의 측모두부X선규격사진이었으며 선정된 표본의 평균연령은 20.16세였다. 연구방법은 측모경조직분석을 위해 Downs분석, Northwestern분석, Steiner분석, Wylie분석, Tweed분석, Dimensional linear분석법이 이용되었고 측모연조직분석을 위해 Holdaway연조직분석법이 적용되었다. 조사된 계측치들은 Apple II 48K system을 이용하여 각항목에 대한 평균치와 표준편차를 산출하였으며 백인, 한국인, 일본인의 기존계측치와 비교하였다. 그 연구결과는 다음과 같다. I. 경조직분석 (1) 본 연구와 백인과의 비교 본 연구에서는 백인에 비해 하악이 후퇴되었고 상${\cdot}$하악절치는 순측경사를 보였다. 또한 하악하연경사가 심했다. (2) 본 연구와 한국인정상성인여자(이 연구)의 계측치 비교 이의 연구계측치에 비해서 상악이 후퇴되어있고 상${\cdot}$하악절치는 설측경사를 보였다. 따라서 본 연구의 안모형태는 이의 한국인정상성인여자에 비해서 직선형안모를 보였다. (3) 본 연구와 일본정상인의 계측치 비교 일본정상인에 비해 하악이 돌출되었고 상${\cdot}$하절치는 설측경사를 보였다. 또한 안모의 상부고경과 하악크기는 일본정상인에 비해 크게 나타났다. II. 연조직분석 연조직분석의 11항목중 H-선에 대한 연조직 subnasal과 하순의 계측치가 Holdaway의 acceptable range를 벗어났다. 그 이유는 본연구에서 하악이 상대적으로 후퇴양상을 보였기 때문이라고 사료된다. 이외항목의 계측치들이 acceptable range내에 있다는 것은 연조직이 경조직의 이동에 따라 움직이고 있음을 의미한다. III. Downs분석, Northwestern분석, Steiner분석, Wylie분석, Tweed분석, Dimensional linear measurements분석을 위한 평균치, 표준편차, Polygon도표를 작성함으로써 한국성인여자교정의 진단과 치료목표를 정하는데 지침이 된다고 사료된다.

Perovskite-type oxides are promising oxygen carriers in producing oxygen-enriched $CO_2$ gas stream for oxyfuel combustion. In this study, a new series of $SrCo_{1-x}Fe_xO_{3-{\delta}}$ (x = 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8) was prepared and used to produce $O_2/CO_2$ mixture gas. The phase, crystal structure, and morphological properties of $SrCo_{1-x}Fe_xO_{3-{\delta}}$ were investigated through X-ray diffraction, specific surface area measurements, and environmental scanning electron microscopy. The oxygen desorption performance of $SrCo_{1-x}Fe_xO_{3-{\delta}}$ was studied in a fixed-bed reactor system. Results showed that the different x values of $SrCo_{1-x}Fe_xO_{3-{\delta}}$ have no obvious effects on crystalline structure. However, the oxygen desorption performance of $SrCo_{1-x}Fe_xO_{3-{\delta}}$ is improved by Co doping. Moreover, $SrCo_{0.8}Fe_{0.2}O_{3-{\delta}}$ synthesized via a new EDTA method has a larger BET surface area ($40.396m^2/g$), smaller particle size (48.3 nm), and better oxygen production performance compared with that synthesized through a liquid citrate method.

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare recycled and unused orthodontic miniscrews to determine the feasibility of reuse. The comparisons included both miniscrews with machined surfaces (MS), and those with etched surfaces (ES). Methods: Retrieved MS and ES were further divided into three subgroups according to the assigned recycling procedure: group A, air-water spray; group B, mechanical cleaning; and group C, mechanical and chemical cleaning. Unused screws were used as controls. Scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry, insertion time and maximum insertion torque measurements in artificial bone, and biological responses in the form of periotest values (PTV), bone-implant contact ratio (BIC), and bone volume ratio (BV) were assessed. Results: Morphological changes after recycling mainly occurred at the screw tip, and the cortical bone penetration success rate of recycled screws was lower than that of unused screws. Retrieved ES needed more thorough cleaning than retrieved MS to produce a surface composition similar to that of unused screws. There were no significant differences in PTV or BIC between recycled and unused screws, while the BV of the former was significantly lower than that of the latter (p < 0.05). Conclusions: These results indicate that reuse of recycled orthodontic miniscrews may not be feasible from the biomechanical aspect.

The purpose of thise study was to measure the thickness of the sinus lateral wall using computed tomography (CT), and to find the most suitable vertical position for lateral window opening prior to sinus elevation. Thirty patients requiring sinus elevation had CT images taken with Philips Brilliance iCT. The thickness of the sinus lateral wall was measured according to its vertical position against the sinus inferior border, and its mean was calculated through three repeated measurements. When measured 2 mm above the sinus inferior border (SIB+2), the thickness of the sinus lateral wall was observed to be more than 2 mm. When measured 3 mm above the sinus inferior border (SIB +3), the sinus lateral wall was less than 2 mm in thickness. It is recommended that the lateral wall window be made 3 mm above the sinus inferior border when performing sinus elevation using the lateral approach.

The metacercariae of Pharyngostomum cordatum were found naturally infected in the European grass snake, Rhabdophis tigrina, purchased from a local snake collector in Jinju, Kyongsangnam-do. They were experimentally fed to several kinds of animals such as mice, rats, hamsters, ducklings, a dog, and cats. The adult worms were recovered from the cats 5 weeks after the infection, but none from other animals. The measurements and other morphological characters of the metacercariae and adults were both compatible with those of p. cordatum described by previous authors. The present study confirmed that the snake, Rhabdophis tigrina, serves as a second intermediate (or paratenic) host of p. cordatum in Uorea.

A fish, collected from the Tongbok stream, secondary tributary of the Somjin River system, appeared to be a hybrid between Cobitis longicorpus and Misgurunus anguilicaudatus. The morphological features of this specimen have suborbital spine and distinctive black small spots at the back of its opecleula characterized by C. longicorpus. However, it has totally different body color patterns on the sides of body from the C. longicorpus and The structure of lami-na circularis was less distinctive than that of C. longicorpus. Body measurements of the specimen were similar to the C. longicorpus with the exceptions as caudal peduncle depth(CPD), caudal peduncle length(CPL), predorsal length and CPD/CPL. CPD/CPL were sightly higher and longer than that of the C. longicorpus, and predorsal length was more similar to the M. anguilicaudatus than the C. longicorpus. CPD/CPL value was intermediate between the two parental species. This results indicate that the specimen used in this study is a hybrid between Cobitis longicorpus and Misgurunus anguilicaudatus.

Previous studies have postulated that isometric animals exert similar locomotory capacity (speed, distance) because the amount of energy available for the motion would be the same regardless of body mass (m). To test propriety of this theory, we examined body shape and take-off potential of two frog species, Rana nigromaculata (powerful jumpers) and Bombina orientalis (slow hoppers). Morphological measurements included thigh muscle mass (indicative of total muscle force), hindlimb length (L, determining acceleration distance), and interilial width (shaping take-off motion). To gauge locomotory capacity, take-off speed (v) and take-off angle ($\theta$) were measured from video analyses, and jump distance (R) and take-off Power ($P_{t}$ ) were calculated from equations $R=V^{2}sin2\theta/g$ and ($P_{t}$＝$㎷^{3}/2L$(where g is the gravitational constant). Scaling exponents of morphometric variables for both species were 0.96-1.11 for thigh muscle mass, 0.28-0.29 for hindlimb length, and 0.30-0.36 for interilial width. Scaling exponents of locomotory performance for the two species were -0.01-0.14 for take-off speed, 0.24-0.31 for jump distance, and 0.66-0.84 for take-off power. The results demonstrate that the frogs of this study showed isometric body shape within species, but that take-off response changed allometrically with body mass, indicating that these data did not fully support the previous proposition. An exception was found in take-off speed of B. orientalis, in which the speed changed little with body mass (slope＝-0.01). These findings suggest that the energy availability approach did not properly explain the apparent allometric relations of the take-off response in these animals and that an alternative model such as a power production approach may be worth addressing.

Chest X-ray images is the most common and widely used in clinical findings for a wide range of anatomical information about the prognosis of the disease in patients with cardiopulmonary rehabilitation. Many analysis algorithm was developed by a number of studies regarding the region segmentation and image analysis, there are specific differences due to the complexity and diversity of the image. In this paper, a diagnosis support system of the chest X-ray image based on image processing and analysis methods to detect the cardiopulmonary disease. The threshold value and morphological method was applied to segment the pulmonary region in a chest X-ray image. Anatomical measurements and texture analysis was performed on the segmented regions. The effectiveness of the proposed method is shown through experiments and comparison with diagnosis results by clinical experts to show that the proposed method can be used for decision support system.

In order to investigate the effect of the chemical treatment of bamboo fiber on physical properties of polypropylene (PP)/bamboo fiber (BF) composites, silane coupling agents such as ${\gamma}$-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APS), ${\gamma}$-glycidoxypropyl-trimethoxysilane (GPS) and ${\gamma}$-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane (MRPS) were applied to BF and alkaline treated BF. Morphological properties of the chemically treated BF were confirmed by optical microscope and SEM measurements, and chemical structure changes were confirmed by FT-IR and EDS. TGA results showed that the thermal stability of silane treated BF increased. Based on the analysis of a universal testing machine and an Izod impact test, the flexural and impact properties of PP/silane treated BF composites showed higher values than those of PP/BF composites. The enhancement of interfacial adhesion properties of the PP/BF composite was checked from SEM images of the fracture of specimens after the tensile test.

One specimen of a natural hybrid of an Oplegnathus (Oplegnathus fasciatus $\times$ Oplegnathus punctatus) was found in Tongyeong, Korea in August 2008. We, herein, describe its morphological and genetic characteristics and compare them with those of O. fasciatus and O. punctatus. In morphology, the hybrid showed many distinctive black rounded blotches on body sides and four faint vertical bars, being in those features similar to O. punctatus. Although the counts and measurements of the hybrid mostly overlapped between O. fasciatus and O. punctatus, the Oplegnathus hybrid resembled O. punctatus in the ratio of pelvic-fin length in standard length: Oplegnathus hybrid (26.7%) was closer to O. punctatus (26.4%) than to O. fasciatus (17.2~23.6%). In genetics, as a result of analysis of 510 base pair sequences of mitochondrial DNA 16S rRNA, the hybrid was closer to O. fasciatus (d=0.000~0.010) than to O. punctatus (d=0.020). Our results suggest that the natural hybridization represented by the subject specimen occurred between an O. fasciatus female and an O. punctatus male.
