The present study is concerned with the effect of PM process variables on the microstructure by using atomized superalloy powders. It is suggested that the inhomogeneity of composition is strongly dependent on the process variables. The contents of segregation elements of plasma rotating electrode process (PREP) powders are larger than those of Ar atomization (AA) powders. As HIP treatment temperature in-increases, the secondary phases on the prior particle boundaries (PPB) have continuous,uniform distribution and high density, but the amount of PPB decreases suddenly at 1150$^{\circ}$C. Segregated phases on the PPB are identified to be MC type carbide. Brittle MC type carbides on the PPB provide fracture initiation sites and preferred fracture path, thereby leading to intergranular type brittle fracture.

The hip is a stable ball-and-socket joint. Bilateral anterior dislocations of the native hip joints account for fewer than 1% of all dislocations. We present a unique case of a bilateral anterior dislocation in a patient who presented to our institution within 6 hours of trauma. The dislocations were promptly reduced under propofol anesthesia in the operating room. The patient did not suffer a concurrent fracture. After the procedure, we performed regular X-ray examinations for 2 years to rule out the development of avascular necrosis of the head of the femur. The course of the patient was unremarkable.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the incidence of osteoporosis and falls and their consequences, and to identify predictors of fracture risk in the postmenopausal women. Methods: A total of 687 postmenopausal women were recruited through a stratified convenience sampling. A structured questionnaire was used to obtain osteoporosis and fall history and details of their most recent fall. To predict fracture risk factors, we collected demographic and physical health variables related osteoporosis and fall. Fracture risk was measured by FRAX$^{(R)}$ to calculate 10-year probability of major osteoporotic and hip fracture. Results: The prevalence of osteoporosis was 22.1%, and 66.4% of them had treatments for osteoporosis. The incidence of falls during the past year was 19.2% and 38.6% of those who fell suffered consequent fractures. Women with history of osteoporosis and falls were significant predictors of 10-year probability of major osteoporotic and hip fracture. Other significant predictors were history of fracture, chronic disease, surgical menopause, lower BMI, poorer perceived health and no job. Conclusion: It appears that history of osteoporosis and falls are main predictors of fracture risk. Nursing assessment should be performed by detail history taking for osteoporosis, fall, chronic disease, and fracture to screen fracture risk group among postmenopausal women.

A 30-year-old, male truck driver had a traffic accident and visited a hospital due to left hip pain. The patient's femoral head was fractured, and he was treated conservatively. For 14 years afterwards, he walked without a limp, had no pain, and drove his truck. He was involved in another traffic accident and experienced a comminuted fracture of the left distal femur 14 years after the initial injury. Although he was symptom-free, while being treated by open reduction and internal fixation for the distal femur fracture, he was concerned about the status of his left femoral head. Pelvis radiographs and reconstructed CT images were done, and they showed a spur change around the femoral head which had a dense sclerotic band within and revealed a slight depression of subchondral bone of the medial portion of the femoral head. The diagnosis was a Pipkin type-II fracture of the femoral head.

목적: WHO(world health organization)에서 10년 내 골절 위험도라는 새로운 개념의 FRAX (fracture risk assessment) Tool을 2008년 초에 발표하였다. FRAX에서는 기존의 골절위험도와는 달리 여러 가지 위험인자가 고려되었다. 본 연구에서는 골절 위험인자 변화에 따른 골절 위험도를 알아보고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 부산대학교 병원에서 50~60세의 여성 수검자 50명을 대상으로, GE사의 Lunar-prodigy로 골밀도를 측정하였다. 개인의 연령, 체중, 키를 바탕으로 대퇴경부의 T-score를 산출하였다. 골절 위험인자를 고려하지 않은 T-Score에서의 골절위험도를 대조군으로 하였다. 골절의 경험유무, 골절의 가족력(부모에 한함), 현재의 흡연 여부, 당질코르티코이드의 사용유무, 류마티스 관절염의 유무, 이차성 골다공증의 유무, 알콜의 평균섭취량의 7가지 항목을 실험군으로 하여 각각의 항목을 하나가 '유'이면 나머지는 모두 '무'로 하여 골절위험도를 비교하였으며, 골절위험도는 신체 주요부위 골절과 대퇴경부의 골절로 나누어 결과를 산출하였다. 통계는 SPSS 12.0의 t-test를 사용하였다. 결과: 대조군과 실험군 간의 골절위험도의 평균증가율은 먼저 신체 주요부위와 실험군을 알아보면 골절의 경험 -74% 증가, 골절의 가족력 -96% 증가, 흡연 -2% 증가, 당질코르티코이드 사용 -61% 증가, 류마티스 관절염 -29% 증가, 이차성 골다공증 -0.18% 감소, 알콜의 섭취 -20% 증가하였다. 대퇴골 경부와 실험군은 골절의 경험-84% 증가, 골절의 가족력 -5% 증가, 흡연 -72% 증가, 당질코르티코이드의 사용-84% 증가, 류마티스관절염 -40% 증가, 이차성 골다공증 -1.69% 감소, 알콜의 섭취 -52%가 증가하였다. 결론: 신체 주요부위와 대퇴골 경부에서 위험인자 항목마다 골절위험도의 각기 다른 증가율을 보였으나 이차성 골다공증의 경우에는 유의확률이 낮아 연관성이 다소 떨어짐을 확인하였다. 이와 더불어 각각의 인자가 신체 주요부위에서의 골절위험도를 높이는 비중과 대퇴골경부에서의 골절위험도를 높이는 비중에서 기여도가 다름을 알 수 있었다.

There were some controversies about direct cause of hip fracture. We attempted to look at 40 osteoporotic proximal femur fractures in women over 50 years between March in 1999 and Febuary in 2000. The bone density of the fracture group and the healthy 85 control group was measured by Dual Energy X-ray absorptiometry(DEXA). The result was compared using age matched paired T test. The results were as follows ; 1. The femoral neck fractures were 14 cases and the trochanteric fractures were 26 cases. Mean age at a fracture was 67.1 years in neck fracture group and 76.5 years in trochanteric fracture. 2. In the control group, the bone density of both side of the proximal femur was measured and it showed statistically no difference between both sides in same person. 3. The bone density of neck, Ward's triangle, trochanter(P<0.05) and lumbar spine(P<0.001) was significantly reduced in the proximal femoral fracture group comparing with the control group. 4. The bone density of neck, Ward's triangle, trochanter(P<0.05) was significantly reduced in the proximal femoral neck fracture group comparing with the control group, but there was no statistical difference in lumbar spine comparing with the control group. 5. The bone density of neck, Ward's triangle, trochanter and lumbar spine(P<0.001) was significantly reduced in the proximal femoral neck fracture group comparing with the control group. We concluded that the bone mineral densities(BMD) of proximal femur and lumbar spine had decreased in hip fractures but that the bone mineral density and T-score % of the proximal femur were statistically lower than that of the lumbar spine. We suggest that measuring the bone mineral density of the proximal femur may reflect the weakness of the proximal femur more precisely than measuring the bone mineral density of the lumbar spine.

PURPOSE: The aims of this study were to assess the intra-tester and inter-tester reliability and validity of hip range of motion using a smart phone in hip operative patients. METHODS: Twenty-five patients (eight total hip arthroplasty and seventeen femur neck fracture) participated in this study. The range of motions in active and passive hip flexion, abduction and external rotation were measured with a goniometer and smart phone over two times by two observers. The intra-tester and inter-tester reliability were evaluated using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC2,1). The validity was measured by Pearson's correlation coefficient RESULTS: The intra-observer reliability was good in all measured items (ICC>0.78). The inter-observer reliability was high with ICC (>0.90). All correlation coefficients of smart phone and goniometer was greater than 0.85 and showed a significant positive correlation (p<0.01). CONCLUSION: The range of motion measurement with a smart phone showed acceptable reliability. Therefore, it could be convenient and have economical benefits to measure the range of motion of the hip joint using a smart phone.

It is well defined that osteoporosis is an age related disorder and associated with decreased bone mass. It is one of the most important disease lacing the aging population because of its association with fracture of the hip, vertebrae and distal radius. The disease provoke a significant economic burden and major public health problem of an elderly. The life-time risk of hip fracture in white women is approximately 15% which is equal to the combined risk of breast, uterine, and ovarian cancer. Despite its deleterious effect on women's health, knowledge of the epidemiology of osteoporosis in Korea is only beginning. 1970 in Korea has non as the crossover period between the chronic and an Infectious diseases. As the result, the infant mortality declined and an elderly population in Korea increased significantly in the past decade, The average life expectancy of women in Korea is now about 75 years. Thus, the majority of Korean women will spend approximately one-third of their life in the postmenopause state. Therefore, better understanding of bone metabolism and fracture incidence in Korean population is a great interest for the medical community as well as for public health. Currently, no population based epidemiologic data are available to support the incidence of osteoporotic fractures in Korea. However, available data suggest that significant declining of bone mineral density (BMD [g/$cm^2$]) has been occurring in Korean women after menopause. In same population, peak BMD was observed around 33-39 years of age and continue to decline thereafter. An accelerated bone losses occur after the menopause and the average loss is approximately 13% within 15 years from the menopause. The incidence of fracture was highly correlated with an age and bone mineral density. The mean age of menopause in Korean women was 47 years and this age appears to getting younger when analyzed by the birth cohort. An earlier menopausal age and increase life expectancy place Korean women at increase risk for osteoporosis and bone fracture. Korean or Asian women are no longer protected from the risk of bone fracture. Therefore, an early prevention or intervention schemes are essential before the outbreak of osteoporosis and/or fracture occurs in Korean or Asian women.

Study of east & west medical science documentary records of Hip joint pain lead to following conclusions. 1. Easten medicine classify hip joint pain with terms "Bi-chu-tong", "Bi chu in tong" "Bi-chu-choong-tong". 2. Easten medicine asorts cause of hip joint pain with external factor, such as exogenous energy, six yin evil energy and intrinsic factor, which are weakness caused by prolonged deasease, warm-heat evil. 3. In western medicine, causes that trigger hip joint pain are trauma, fracture, dislocation,and bacterial infection. 4. Treatment of hip joint disorder in western medicine, physiotherapy concerning conservative treatment, and pain control with drug treatment, kinesitherapy are used, and concernig fracture, operation is used. 5. In Eastern medicine, principle of treating hip joint pain, sung-juk-sa-ji(盛則寫之), hu-juk-bo-ji(虛則補之), yul-juk-jil-ji(熱則疾之), han-juk-yu-ji(寒則留之), ham-ha-juk-chim-ji(陷下則沈之), bul-sung-bul-hu(不盛不虛), yi-kyong-chui-ji(以經取之) is presented. This priciple of treatment was descended through ages and is now applied to treatments such as Acupuncture, Herbal, physical treatment based on so-san-eo-hyul(消散瘀血), seo-kun-tong-rak(舒筋通絡), so-ri-kwan-jul(疏利關節) principle. 6. In Eastern medicine, meridians used to treat hip joint pain are The Chok yangmyung wi Kyong(足陽明胃經), Chok taeum bi Kyong(足太陰脾經), Chock soyang dam Kyong(足少陽膽經), Chock guelum gan Kyong(足厥陰肝經). In conclusion, hip joint pain should be considered in relationship with internal organs and whole body system. Western & Eastern point of view should be carefully inspected and connected and intensive study of nervous system and meridian is required, in order to adopt best treatment for the patients.
