It has been suggested that the endoscopic color of intramucosal gastric carcinoma is correlated with mucosal vascularity within the carcinomatous tissue. The development of electronic endoscopy has made it possible to quantitatively measure the mucosal hemoglobin volume, using a hemoglobin index. The aim of this study was to make a software program to calculate the hemoglobin index (IHb) and then investigate whether the mucosal IHb determined from the electronic endoscopic data is a useful marker for evaluating the color of intramucosal gastric carcinoma, in particular with regard to its value for discriminating between the histologic type. The mean values of IHb for the carcinoma (IHb-C) and the mean values of IHb for the surrounding non-cancerous mucosa ( IHb-N) were calculated in 75 intestinal-type and 34 diffuse-type gastric carcinomas. Then, we analyzed the ratio of the IHb-C to IHb-N. The mean IHb-C/IHb-N ratio in the intestinal-type carcinoma group was higher than that in the diffuse-type carcinoma group ($1.28{\pm}0.19$ vs. $0.81{\pm}0.18$, respectively, p<0.001). When the cut-off point of the C/N ratio was set at 1.00, the accuracy rate, the sensitivity, the specificity, and the positive and negative predictive values of a C/N ratio below 1.00 for the differential diagnosis of diffuse-type carcinoma from intestinal-type carcinoma were $94.5\%$, $94.1\%$, $94.7\%$, $88.9\%$ and $97.3\%$, respectively. IHb is useful for quantitative measurement of the endoscopic color in intramucosal gastric carcinoma and the IHb-C/IHb-N ratio would be helpful in distinguishing diffuse-type carcinoma from intestinal -type carcinoma.
This study was performed to evaluate the difference of the bone-to-implant contact according to the surface roughness of the implants. Two beagles were used in the experiment. Extraction of the all premolars was performed in the mandible. In 3 months of healing, screw-shaped pure titanium machined surface implants (Implantium(R), Dentium Co. Korea), implants blasted with 45${\mu}m$$TiO_2$ particles, (Implantium(R), Dentium Co. Korea) and implants blasted with 100${\mu}m$$TiO_2$ particles (Implantium(R), Dentium Co. Korea) in diameter 3.4mm and length 6mm were installed in the edentulous mandible. Each dog was sacrificed at 4, 12 weeks after placement and then nondecalcified specimens were prepared for histologic analysis. The results of this study were as follows. 1. At 4 , 12 weeks after the surgery, bone-to-implant contact in the surface blasted with $TiO_2$ particles was higher than that in the pure titanium machined surface respectively. 2. Osseointegration in the surface blasted with 45${\mu}m$$TiO_2$ particles was more increased than that in the surface blasted with 100${\mu}m$$TiO_2$ particles. 3. Bone-to-implant contact was increased with time independent of surface roughness. 4. Bone formation was in the outfolded area more than inside the threads independent of surface roughness. From the above results, we were able t o find the most bone-to-implant contact in 45${\mu}m$$TiO_2$ blasted implant.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the differences of histochemical characteristics in inflammatory fibrous gingival hyperplasia (FGH), phenytoin-induced gingival hyperplasia(PIGH), idiopathic gingival hyperplasia(IDGH) and control groups (healthy and inflammatory gingiva) by immunohistochemical method with various antibodies and histomorphological analysis. In immunohistochemical finding, antibodies to inflammatory cells (T/B lymphocytes, macrophages, other monocytes), proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA), epidermal growth factor(EGF), factor VIII, and type I collagen were used. 1. The inflammatory infiltrates in FGH were less than those in inflammatory gingiva. The composition of inflammatory cells of PIGH was similar with that of FGH. IDGH showed a similar histologic findings with healthy gingival tissue. 2. In FGH, the number of fibroblasts and newly-formed collagen fibers was increased. No significant increase of fibroblasts and the dense accumulation of thick collagen fibers were seen in PIGH. The increase of fibroblasts and the dense accumulation of thick collagen were seen in IDGH. 3. PCNA-positive cells were localized mainly in the area accumulated with inflammatory cells and blood vessels, significantly increased in all hyperplastic tissue groups, and distributed evenly in IDGH. 4. The distribution of EGF were not observed in healthy gingiva but detected locally in area with confluent blood vessels,without significant difference between the other tissue groups. This results suggest that inflammation plays a significant role in inducing hyperplastic change of gingival tissue. While in DIGH, drug itself as well as inflammation seems to attribute to hyperplastic change.
Purpose: Among available biomaterials, bioceramics have drawn special interest due to their bioactivity and the possibility of tailoring their composition. The degradation rate and formulation of bioceramics can be altered to mimic the compositions of the mineral phase of bone. The aim of this study was to investigate the bone formation effect of amorphous calcium phosphate glass cement (CPGC) synthesized by a melting and quenching process. Methods: In five male beagle dogs, $4{\times}4$ mm 1-wall intrabony defects were created bilaterally at the mesial or distal aspect of the mandibular second and fourth premolars. Each of the four defects was divided according to graft materials: CPGC with collagen membrane (CM), biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) with CM, CM alone, or a surgical flap operation only. The dogs were sacrificed 8 weeks post-surgery, and block sections of the defects were collected for histologic and histometric analysis. Results: There were significant differences in bone formation and cementum regeneration between the experimental and control groups. In particular, the CPGC and BCP groups showed greater bone formation than the CM and control groups. Conclusions: In conclusion, CPGC was replaced rapidly with an abundant volume of new bone; CPGC also contributed slightly to regeneration of the periodontal apparatus.

This study was desinged to evaluate the effect of radioactive iodine-131 therapy in differentiated thyroid carcinoma treated at the Presbyterian Medical Center, Chonju during the 20-year period from 1975 to 1994. The authors reviewed 246 patients who received radioactive iodine-131. An analysis of the therapeutic response and survival rates of the 246 patients has been carried out. The male to female ratio was 1 : 3.6. The peak incidence was in the 4th and 6th decades. The histologic findings in the 246 patients were papillary adenocarcinoma in 200 cases, follicular adenocarcinoma in 29 cases, mixed type in 14 cases, and others in 3 cases. Combined treatment modalities of 246 patients consisted of sugery and radioiodine in 222 cases, surgery with radioiodine and external irradiation in 11 cases, and surgery with radioiodine, external irradiation and chemotherapy in 5 cases. 42 of the 246 cases showed recurrence and the commonest type of combined treatment for recurrent case was surgery followed by radioiodine-131. The highest accumulated total dosage of radioiodine-131 was 480mCi in that case femoral metastasis was noticed. The most common locoregional metastatic site was ipsilateral cervical node, and neighbouring muscle, vessel, trachea, recurrent layngeal nerve, in order of frequency. The determinate 10-year survival rate was 91.8% in the group receiving surgery followed by radioiodine-13l and 71.4% in patients receiving surgery, radioiodine-13l with XRT. The determinate 10-year survival rate was better for patients under 40 years of age who received radioiodine as compared to patients over 40 year of age(85.7% vs. 33.3%). The most usual primary therapeutic dosage in the group of cervical lesion was 90$\sim$120mCi after surgery.

Purpose: Addition of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) to grafting material has become widely accepted additively for bone regeneration because it can raise high expectations on it's clinical potential. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of PRP and PRF on early bone regeneration of rabbits when used in combination with beta tricalcium phosphate. Methods: In eight rabbits, the calvarium was exposed and the two marrows were penetrated. After then these artificial bone defects were augmented with ${\beta}$-TCP or ${\beta}$-TCP with PRP or ${\beta}$-TCP with PRF and covered. The animals were sacrificed after four and eight weeks. Histologic findings were observed under the light-microscope and histomorphometric analysis was performed by measuring calcified area of new bone formation within the CSD. Results: They demonstrated that new bone formation tended to be produced along the outline of graft materials. More amounts of newly bone was regenerated in ${\beta}$-TCP only and in combination of${\beta}$-TCP with PRF and it was statistically significant. In contrast, there was no significant difference between nothing apply and ${\beta}$-TCP with PRP groups in the relative amounts of newly mineralized bone. Conclusion: Within the limitation of this study, it can be concluded that PRF in combination with ${\beta}$-TCP showed a positive effect on bone regeneration and statistically it was significant.

Epidemiologic studies consistently demonstrate an inverse relationship between risk for colon canter and consumption of fruits and vegetables. Wheat bran, flax and soy contain dietary fiber and phytochemicals, such as lignans and isoflavones, that may inhibit colon carcinogenesis. Orange juice contains hesperidin, a flavanone glucoside that protects against colon carcinogenesis. This study determined if feeding orange juice, wheat bran, soy and flaxseed (combined diet) would inhibit azoxymethane (AOM) induced colon cancer. Cancer was initiated in male Fisher 344 rats by injecting 15 mg AOM/kg of weight at 22 and 29 days of age. One week after the second AOM injection, rats (N = 30) in the combined diet group received dry diet containing wheat bran (4%), soy with ethanol soluble phytochemirals(13%) and flaxseed (8%) and orange juice replaced drinking water. The control group remained on the control diet and received distilled water to drink. The rats were killed 28 weeks later, and colon tissues and tumors were removed for histologic analysis. Feeding the combined diet significantly reduced tumor incidence (p < 0.05), however tumor multiplicity was not changed (p > 0.05, 0.9 tumors/rat fed the combined diet vs 1.2 for controls). Also, tumor burden was only marginally reduced in rats fed the combined diet vs control rats (65 vs 210 mg of tumor/rats, respectively). The reduction in tumor incidence was associated with a decreased labeling index and proliferation zone in normal appearing colon mucosa. Therefore, this study shows that phytochemicals in wheat bran, soy, flax and orange juice reduce colon carcinogenesis, presumably by decreasing cell proliferation and enhancing cell differentiation.
Background: Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer-related death worldwide. The incidence of lung cancer is aproximately 7-8 thousand percent in Turkish women. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the clinical, pathological properties and survival data of female patients with lung cancer who were treated in our center. Materials and Methods: From 2007 to 2012, 50 women with lung cancer were enrolled. Patient data were evaluated retrospectively. Results: The median age was 61 (40-81). Forty patients (80%) were diagnosed with non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), 10 patients (20%) were small cell carcinoma (SCC). Twelve (24%) patients were smokers and 13 of 16 non-smokers had a history of exposure to asbestos. The most common histologic subtype was adenocarcinoma (46%) and this accounted for 71% in patients with exposure to asbestos. The most common initial Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance score was 1 (24 patients, 48%) and initial stage was IV (25 patients, 50%) in the study group. During the median 15 months (1-96 months) followup period: 1 year overall survival (OS) was 68%, 2year overall survival was 36% and the median survival time was 19 months. According to univariate analysis, poor ECOG performance status, advanced stage, anemia and weight loss at time of diagnosis were negative prognostic factors. However, adenocarcinoma sub-type was a positive prognostic factor. Conclusions: In this study NSCLC sub-type, poor ECOG performance score, advanced stage, anemia and weight loss were prognostic factors in Turkish women with lung cancer.
Purpose: We aimed to study the relationship between thrombocytosis and clinical features of gastric cancerfocussing on platelet counts and gastric cancer progression through different TNM stages. Methods: According to the normal range of platelet count in our institution, 1,596 patients were divided to two groups: a thrombocytosis group (120 patients, > $400{\times}1000/{\mu}L$) and a control group (1,476 patients, ${\leq}400{\times}1000/{\mu}L$). Results: The incidence of thrombocytosis was 7.5%. Higher platelet counts were observed in patients with older age, larger tumor size, deeper invasion, lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis and advanced TNM stage. In multivariate logistic regression, tumor size, depth of tumor invasion, lymph node metastasis and TNM stage were independent risk factors for thrombocytosis of gastric cancer patients. On prognostic analysis, age, tumor size, tumor location, histologic type, depth of tumor invasion, lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis and TNM stage and platelet count were important factors. Tumor size, invasion depth, lymph node metastasis, TNM stage and the platelet count were independent prognostic factors. Conclusion: Thrombocytosis is associated with clinical features of gastric cancer patients and correlates with a poor prognosis.

This study was conducted to compare the vein graft with the nerve graft, and evaluated the availability of the vein graft on the reconstruction of the inferior alveolar nerve defect. The experimental animals were 12 rabbits weighing $1.5{\sim}2.0kg$, divided into 3 groups : sham operation group, vein conduit group and nerve graft group. All nerves were excised and histomorphometric analysis was performed at 2, 4, 6, 12, 16 weeks after operation. The obtained results were as follows. 1. Histologic examination revealed the regenerated nerve fibers within the lumen of the vein graft and nerve graft at 6 weeks after repair. 2. Axon diameter was significantly larger in nerve graft group(p<0.05) than in vein graft group at 6weeks, and larger in nerve graft group than in vein graft group at 16weeks. 3. Axon density was higher in the vein graft group at 16 weeks. 4. The myelin of the regenerated nerve fibers in distal segment of the vein graft group was thick, approaching the proximal segment at 16weeks. This means remyelination in distal segment in the vein graft group. These results suggested that autogenous vein graft may be used as an alternative to autogenous nerve graft.
