Symptoms of foot-and-mouth disease include fever and drooling a lot around the hoof, blisters in the mouth, poor appetite, blisters around the hoof, and blisters around the hoof. Research is underway on smart barns that remotely manage these symptoms through cameras. Visible light cameras can measure the condition of livestock such as blisters, but cannot measure body temperature. On the other hand, infrared thermal imaging cameras can measure body temperature, but it is difficult to measure the condition of livestock. In this paper, we propose an object detection system using deep learning-based livestock detection using visible and infrared thermal imaging composite camera modules for preemptive response

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) ankylosis is a rare disease impairing mandible movement and can either be intra-articular (true) or extra-articular (false). A cat presented with an inability to open its mouth, drooling, and facial asymmetry. Computed tomography (CT) confirmed an extracapsular abnormal TMJ fusion, and a surgical plan was devised based on the CT imaging. Post-surgery, the cat regained mouth mobility (indicating false ankylosis) and showed an improved prognosis. This case of CT-diagnosed and treated feline TMJ false ankylosis underscores the indispensable role of CT in diagnosing and devising surgical strategies for feline TMJ false ankylosis.

A 39-year-old female patient who had undergone a total thyroidectomy for a papillary thyroid carcinoma underwent a whole body scan with I-131. The I-131 scan was performed 72 hours after administering 185 MBq (5 mCi) of an I-131 solution. The anterior image of the head, neck, and upper chest showed multiple areas of increased uptake in the mediastinal area considering of functional metastasis. However, radioactivity was not evident in the image taken after removing her clothes and muffler. The image obtained after placing the muffler on the pallet showed that the radioactivity was still present. It is well known that artifacts on an I-131 scan can be produced by styling hair sputum, drooling during sleep, chewing gum, and paper or a cloth handkerchief that is contaminated with the radioactive iodine from either perspiration or saliva. This activity might be mistaken for a functional metastasis. Therefore, it is essential that an image be obtained after removing the patient's clothes. In this study, artifacts due to a contaminated muffler on the I-131 scan were found. These mimicked a functional metastasis of the mediastinal area in a patient with a papillary thyroid carcinoma.

Three cats with 2 weeks to 1 month history of drooling, halitosis, difficulty eating and pain on opening the mouth were presented to local animal hospitals. On physical examination, the gingiva was swollen, bright red and very painful with bilaterally symmetric pattern. Surgically excised abnormal gingival biopsy samples were requested for diagnosis. Histopathologically, gingival epithelium showed severe hyperplasia and ballooning degeneration. Moderate to severe infiltration of lymphocytes and plasma cells were presented in lamina propria. Immunohistochemically, inflammatory cells of the samples demonstrated major positive reactions for T lymphocytes. But some plasma cells also presented. According to polymerase chain reaction, tissues samples were negative for four kinds of feline viral pathogens. Based on the clinical, gross, histopathologic findings, these three cases were diagnosed as lymphoplasmacytic gingivitis in cats. In our best knowledge, this is the first case report in Korea.

Pain and sensory disorder resulting from injury to peripheral nerves of the face and jaws are a major source of patient dissatisfaction and suffering. The majority of patient who sustain injuries to the peripheral sensory nerves of the face and jaws experience a slow but orderly return of sensation that is functional and tolerable in quality, if not "normal". For many patients, however, the long-term effects are a source of aggravation, and for a few, a significant cause of suffering. Common complaints relate to reduced sensory information causing embarrassing food accumulations or drooling, biting a burning the lip or tongue, and difficulty in performing routine activities such as shaving and apply makeup. For some patients posttraumatic symptoms become pathological and frankly painful. The predominent pain components are (1) numbing anesthesia dolorosa pain, (2) triggered neuralgiaform pain, (3) burning, aching causalgiaform pain, and (4) phantom pain. This is a report of cases about posttraumatic pain syndrome associated with dental treatment in a psychologically disabled patient.

Lennox-Gastaut syndrome(LGS) is a severe age-specific epilepsy syndrome that causes medication-resistant seizures in childhood. Vagal nerve stimulation (VNS) has been proposed as a possible way to improve the treatment of refractory epilepsy. We treated 9 patients with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome between the ages of 2 and 11 years (mean 5.8 years), by using the vagus nerve stimulation. The mean follow-up duration was 35 months. The mean reduction of seizure frequency compared with baseline before VNS was 52% after 6 months (range, 0% to 89%; P<0.011), and 58% after 1 year (range 0% to 89%; P<0.012). Seven patients showed improvements of quality of life (QOL) such as alertness, mood, and language skills. The most common side effects were transient hoarseness (6 patients) and drooling (1 patient). Our results suggest that the vagus nerve stimulation could be an effective and safe adjunct therapy for the treatment of Lennox-Gastaut syndrome.

Angelman syndrome(AS) is a rare genetic neurological disorder. The main clinical characteristics of this syndrome are delayed neuropsychological development, intellectual disability, speech impairment, jerky movements especially hand-lapping, frequent laughter or smiling. AS is a classic example of genetic imprinting in that it is usually caused by deletion or inactivation of genes on the maternally inherited chromosome 15. The syndrome has oral manifestations such as diastemas, tongue thrusting, sucking/swallowing disorder, mandibular prognathism, frequent drooling, and excessive chewing behavior. The purpose of this paper is to describe the interesting aspects of the dental treatment of a childe with AS.

A 70-year-old male with a history of diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and coronary stent insertion visited our hospital 7 days after biting his lower lip. Swelling and inflammation had worsened despite debridement and antibiotic treatment. On the 8th hospital day, fungal infection with Candida albicans and superimposed bacterial infection with Klebsiella pneumoniae were found on tissue culture. Extensive necrosis resulted in a defect of approximately 3/4 of the entire lower lip and a full-layer skin defect from the vermilion to the gingivobuccal sulcus at the right corner of the mouth. To correct drooling, incomplete lip sealing, and trismus, staged reconstruction was performed with consideration of cosmetic and functional features. The treatment process using staged reconstruction and antifungal treatment for an extensive lower lip defect caused by fungal stomatitis is described.

Acute toxic effects of the Woo Whang Chung Shim Won suspension and pills were studied with the doses of 60, 74, 90, and 110 ml/kg in mice. In this study, we daily examined number of deaths, clinical signs, body weights, and pathological findings for 7 days after administration of Woo Whang Chung Shim Won. All mice given the highest dose (110ml/kg) died at 24 hour after administration of Sam-Sung Woo Whang Chung Shim Won suspension (Byunbang, SS-BS and Wonbang, SS-WS), one male and two female mice given 90 ml/kg dose of SS-BS died, and a few mice given middle dose (74 ml/kg) of SS-WS died. In control group (110 ml/kg) treated with vehicle (SS-BS and SS-WS), three out of 5 males and two out of 5 females mice died during the study. However, in animals treated with Kwang-Dong Woo Whang Chung Shim Won suspension (KD-S) and pill (KD-P), deaths were not observed. In the clinical signs, increase of drooling and decrease of spontaneous motor activities were observed in the highest dose group (110 ml/kg). No significant dose-related change in body weight was observed. The results suggest that the toxic effect of SS-BS and SS-WS may be atttributed to the solution for the Woo Whang Chung Shim Won suspension.
