The purpose of this study was to determine the outcome of distal femoral osteotomy for distal femoral varus and medial patellar luxation (MPL) grade 4 in small-breed dogs. Radiographs and medical records were reviewed to collect data and plan the surgery in small-breed dogs with MPL grade 4. Computed tomography (CT) imaging was also performed in cases of severe bone deformities. Signalment, weight, medial patellar luxation and lameness grade, radiographic bone union, complications, pre- and postoperative femoral varus angle, passive range of motion, static weight bearing distribution and visual analogue scale scores were recorded. Thirteen corrective distal femoral osteotomies were performed with ancillary and additional procedures in 9 dogs; 4 dogs had staged bilateral procedures; and four stifles were suspected to have partial or complete rupture of the cranial cruciate ligament. One stifle underwent patellar groove replacement. The mean ± SD pre- and postoperative femoral varus angles were 109.15°± 3.71° and 96.30°± 2.97°, respectively. Significant improvements in passive range of motion, thigh circumference and visual analogue scale (VAS) scores were observed. There was no reluxation of the patella. This study suggests that distal femoral osteotomy with traditional and additional procedures provided satisfactory outcomes in patient healing and functional recovery in small-breed dogs with excessive femoral varus angles.

라디에타 소나무(Pinus radiata D.Don)를 이용하여 압체 온도와 시간에 따른 압밀화 목재의 경도와 치수안 정성을 조사하였다. 압체 온도가 상승함에 따라 표면경도도 함께 증가하였다. 열압체 시간 30분을 기준으로 압체 온도 $70^{\circ}C$에서는 경도 값이 5.0 N/$mm^2$, $220^{\circ}C$에서 15.6 N/$mm^2$으로 312% 향상되었으며, 60분에서는 313%, 90분에서는 224% 향상되는 것으로 나타났다. 치수회복실험 결과 열압체 온도가 상승함에 따라 치수고정효과는 상승한 반면 압체 시간의 증가에 의한 치수고정효과는 미약하였다. 접촉각 측정결과 압체 온도와 시간의 증가와 함께 접촉각도 증가했으며 압체 온도 $220^{\circ}C$에서는 $90^{\circ}$ 이상의 접촉각을 나타내어 표면이 소수성을 나타냄을 알 수 있었다.

군용항공기는 고받음각에서 적절한 조종성 및 항공기 이탈에 대한 안정성을 확보하고 있어야 한다. 고받음각에서 항공기가 이탈에 진입할 수 있는 한계값은 항공기 형상설계에 직결되는 문제이다. 하지만 현대의 고성능 전투기는 전기식 비행제어계통을 사용하여 고받음각 제어법칙을 설계함으로써 한계 값 내에서 항공기의 안정성을 보장하고 있으며 항공기가 이탈 시, 안전하게 회복할 수 있도록 고받음각 제어법칙을 설계한다. 현재 T-50에 적용되어 있는 고받음각 제어법칙은, 세로축 방향으로는 받음각 제한기 및 MPO(Manual Pitch Override) 모드, 가로-방향축으로는 고받음각 이탈제한기, 가로축 명령제한기, 방향축 조종사 명령제한기 및 스핀방지기가 설계되어 있다. 본 논문에서는 T-50 에 적용되어 있는 고받음각 제어법칙을 소개하며, 고받음각 비행시험을 통하여 항공기 안정성에 관한 연구를 수행하였다.

Aging phenomena of plasma polymer films were studied by using the surface analysis techniques of contact angle measurement, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOFSIMS), and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The polymer films were grown on an aluminum substrate by using a plasma polymerization method from a gas mixture of acetylene and helium, and the films were subsequently modified to have a hydrophilic surface by oxygen plasma treatment. Aging of the polymer films was examined by exposing the samples to water and air environments. The aging process increased the hydrophobicity of the surface, as revealed by an increase in the advancing contact angle of water. XPS analysis showed that the population of oxygen-containing polar groups increased due to the uptake of oxygen during the aging, whereas TOF-SIMS analysis revealed a decrease in the polar group population in the uppermost surface layer. The results suggest that the change in surface property from hydrophilic to hydrophobic nature results from the restructuring of polymer chains near the surface, rather than compositional change of the surface. Oxidative degradation may enhance the mobility and the restructuring process of polymer chains.

Objective: To assess the efficacy of cervical open-door laminoplasty by hydroxyapatite implant insertion between the lamina and the lateral mass without suturing. Methods: All patients who underwent cervical open-door laminoplasty with C2/C7 undermining and insertion of hydroxyapatite implants from C3 to C6 were retrospectively evaluated for surgical time and neurological outcomes according to the Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score. To assess the alignment of the cervical spine and postoperative cervical pain, the C2-7 angle and a visual analogue scale score were used, respectively. Results: The population consisted of 102 women and 222 men ranging in age from 32 to 90 years. The average surgical time was 86 minutes. Fourteen of 1,296 hydroxyapatite implants were kept in place with sutures due to a weak restoration force of the hinge during surgery. No hydroxyapatite implant dislocation was detected on cervical computed tomography at 1 year after surgery. The average JOA score was $10.2{\pm}2.5$ before surgery and $14.6{\pm}2.8$ at 1 year after surgery. The average recovery rate was 61.8%. The average C2-7 angle at the neutral position was $7.1^{\circ}{\pm}6.2^{\circ}$ before surgery and $6.5^{\circ}{\pm}6.3^{\circ}$ at 1 year after surgery. Conclusion: This method enabled us to achieve minimal exposure of the lateral mass, prevention of lateral mass injury and dural injury, and a shorter surgical time while maintaining acceptable surgical outcomes. The idea that firm suture fixation is needed to prevent spacer deviation during cervical open-door laminoplasty may need to be revisited.

Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of pulsed-ultrasound intervention and continued-ultrasound on the MVIC (maximal voluntary isometric contraction) and active ROM (range of motion) recovery of before EIMD (exercise-induced muscle damage). Design: Randomized controlled trial. Methods: Thirty subjects who are student in their 20s at a university participated in this study, these subjects were assigned into three groups, a control group (n=10), experiment group I (n=10) and experiment group II (n=10). The subjects in experimental group were intervened by pulsed-ultrasound and continued-ultrasound, while ones on control group weren't by any intervention after induced EIMD. Results: First, In comparison of the MVIC, in the among group comparison, the MVIC of continued-ultrasound group was significantly larger than those of other groups (p<.005). Second, In the among group comparison, the active extension angle of continued-ultrasound group was significantly smaller than those of other groups (p<.005). Third, In the among group comparison, the active flexion angle of continued-ultrasound group was significantly lager than those of other groups (p<.05). Conclusion: The above results revealed that the continued-ultrasound intervention before an exercise had a significantly improve of muscle function after EIMD. Therefore we can consider the continued ultrasound as a considerable intervention method to prevent or reduce an exercise injury.
