Judging from the studies carried out by Dr. Jo, Yong Jin on the Koreans' faces, Koreans divided into two constitutions according to their facial features and heritages. The one population is the Northern lineage whose ancestor migrated from Siberia in ice age. In order to survive in cold climate, they have developed a high level of metabolic heat production. Cold adaptation for preventing heat loss results in a reduction in the facial surface area with small eyes, nose and lips. The other population is the Southern lineage who is the descent of native in Korean peninsular. They have big eyes with double edged eyelids, broad nose and thick lips. It is generally believed that both genetic and environmetal factors influence eating behaviors. Although we can't recognized their heritage that may contribute to the metabolism and eating behavior, we commonly recognize their physiological heritage acceding to their facial features. In order to investigate the relationship among the size and shape of facial feature, the eating behavior, anthropometric measurement in female college students, the eating behaviors was measured during an instant-noodle lunch eaten in a laboratory setting at the ambient temperature of $23^{\circ}C$. The anterior surface area of left eye and length of right eye were positively correlated with the difference between the peak postprandial and the meal-start core temperature. The surface area of lower lip also negatively correlated with the meal-start core temperature and meal duration. In addition, the total lips' area was positively correlated with the difference between the peak postprandial and the meal-start core temperature and negatively correlated with the meal duration. However anthropometric measurements were not related with the size of facial features.

Lip chapping is a serious cosmetics problem, though remedies other than moisturizing have not been proposed. We investigated changes in the surface configurations of lip corneocytes and increased CD activity and improved chapping severity. Our results suggest that lip chapping can be activities of desquamation-regulating proteinases associated with lip chapping. Using scanning electron microscopy, villus-like projections were observed on the inner surfaces of most corneocytes from normal lips, whereas those with flatter surface were predominant in chapped lips. Further, cell surface area increased with the severity of lip chapping. Cathepsin D (CD)-like and chymotrypsin-like proteinase, which are also present in skin as desquamation-regulating proteinases, were detected in lip corneocytes, though only CD activity was found to decrease in severely chapped lips. Hydration was also lower in areas of lip chapping. Sequential topical application of apricot extract essence characterized as similar to senile xerosis rather than dry skin such as winter xerosis, as it shows a delayed transition of corneocytes through the stratum corneum, and the reduced CD activity may be one of the mechanisms that is further decreased by low hydration. We propose that an enhancement of both CD activity and lip moisture may be effective to improve lip chapping.

We came to the conclusion after considering all the information from many kinds of books on the circulation courses, cross-link points, functions and the symptoms of disease of Chongmai. The results were as follows : 1. The Chongmai that starts from a Uterus flows to Dazhu through the inside of vertebra after joining Renmai and Duimai at Huiyin. The Chongmais up-line that comes out from Qichong into a surface of body arrives and is scattered at a chest through an abdomen. One strand of them goes upward again and is connected to a throat and lips area. After coming out from Qichong, separated down-line is divided into two parts when it arrives a inner part of a heel through the inner part of a leg. One is for an instep, the other is for the sole of a foot. 2. We call it "Sea of Twelve Meridians" or "Meridian's Sea". Because Chongmai controls all of Meridian by acquired "Basic energy" as getting Stomach's energy, Kidney's energy and air-energy, and there are responsible of physiological phenomenon control. And also we name it "Sea of Blood", because it starts from and provides a nutrition to Uterus. 3. All of these four Meridian such as Renmai, Kidney Meridian, Stomach Meridian and Spleen Meridian are ones that flow around the part of a chest and an abdomen. Chongmai makes energy and blood circulation of a chest and an abdomen be stronger and be controlled. Therefore it makes viscera, bowels and body surface be warm and given a nutrition. So Chongmai becomes "Sea of Viscera and Bowels". 4. Chongmai provides a nutrition for ligament and muscle and makes legs get warm as making energy and blood circulate from head to foot. If Chongmai is energetic, hair is completely easy to grow. 5. To see in pathological phase, Chongmais failure or weakness causes like a chest pain, stomachache, heart attack, a menstrual irregularity and sterility and so on. And also if Chongmai is damaged, it happens that giving a nutrition for lips area is stopped, and then mustache doesn't grow any more.

The prosthodontic treatment of severely resorbed edentulous patients has been one of the frustrating areas due to extensive loss of tissues. The integrated neuromuscular balance among tongue, lip, and cheek is compromised. The retention, stability, and support are the three major factors to influence the clinical outcome. Fish described a denture as having three surface, with each surface playing an independent and important role in the over all fit, stability, and comfort of the denture. He recommended that the polished surface should be a series of inclines so that pressure from muscular activity will retain dentures. Within the denture space there is an area that has been termed the neutral zone. The neutral zone is that area in the mouth where, during function, the forces of the tongue pressing outward are neutralized by the forces of the cheeks and lips pressing inward. According to Jacobson and Krol, neuromuscular control interacts to provide retention and the relationship of polished surface of denture base to the surrounding muscular structure of orofacial capsule facilitates the stability and retention. This neutral zone concept has been demonstrated with various modification by a number of authors. The theory used to develop the denture base contours is based on the belief that the muscle should functionally mold not only the border but the entire polished surface. Lott and Walsh reported the clinical success on complete mandibular dentures with application of neutral zone concept. A number of studies demonstrated that denture stability and retention are more dependent on correct position of the teeth and correct contour of external surfaces of the denture in a severely resorbed alveolar ridge. This article presents a prosthodontic approach to treatment of a edentulous patient using neutral zone technique to improve the retention and stability of the prosthesis.

중국산 수입 미꾸리에서 검출한 돼지악구충(Gnnthostoma hispidum)의 early third-stage larva($EL_3$)와 $EL_3$를 마우스에 실험감염시킨 후 4주에 회수한 advanced third-stage larva($AdL_3$)의 표피 미세구조를 주사전자현미경으로 관찰하였다 미꾸리 및 마우스로부터 획득한 충체들을 0.1 M cacodylate buffer로 몇 차례 씻고 2.5% glutaraldehyde 용액으로 고정하였으며 탈수. 건조. 표면처리 등의 과정을 거친 후 한국 ISI사의 DS-l30C 주사전자현미경으로 관찰하 였다. 충체의 전단에는 반달 모양의 구순이 구강을 중심으로 좌우에 1쌍 돌출되어 있었으며 각 구 순에는 한 개의 작은 amphid를 중심으로 양쪽에 labial papillae가 한 개씩 존재하였다 Head bulb에 배열되어 있는 모든 소구들은 끝이 날카롭고 후방으로 휘어져 있었으며 갈고리 모양이었다. ELB의 전 체표면에는 가로주름(transverse striation)이 나 있었고 각 주름에는 피극(cuticular spine)들이 일정한 간격으로 배열되어 있었다. 충체의 앞 부위 체표면에는 길이 약 $1.8{\m\textrm{m}}$의 둔단인 피극이. 중간부위와 후반부의 체표면에는 약 0.75Mn 길이의 피극이 배열되어 있었다. AdL3의 앞 부위 체표면에는 길이 약 4.5 pm의 끝이 뽀족한 피극이, 중간 부위에는 약 $1.75{\m\textrm{m}}$ 길이의 피극이 배열되어 있었으며 됫 부위 체표면에는 벨벳형의 체표주름(velvety cuticular folds)과 미세한 피극이 분포하였다. 충체의 정중면 7번과 8번 가로주름 사이에 한 개의 cewicalpapilla가 분포하였고 후방 약 114지점에서 한 개의 bodypapilla가 관찰되었다. 타원형 와 배설공은 17번과 18번 가로주름 사이에서 개구하였다. 이상에서 $EL_3$와 AdL3 간에 성장 발육 에 따른 미세구조의 차이는 인정되나 근본적인 것은 대동소이하다. 그러나 관찰된 특징적인 SEM 소견들이 악구충의 유충 감별에 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

거대설은 일반적인 보철 수복을 진행하는 데에 장애물이 되는 요소 중의 하나이다. 이러한 환자에서 통상적인 방법으로 제작된 의치는 유지와 안정을 얻기 어려울 뿐 만 아니라, 기본적인 저작의 효율 또한 얻기 힘들 것이다. 이러한 경우 안정적인 의치를 제작하기 위해서는 의치의 교합뿐 아니라 주변 근육 조직과의 조화가 중요한 요소가 될 수 있고, 이를 위해서 연마면을 적절히 형성하는 것이 필요하다. 중립대(neutral zone)는 혀가 밖으로 미는 힘과 볼과 입술이 안으로 미는 힘이 평형을 이루는 근신경계 기능에 의한 잠재적 영역으로 정의되며, 총의치의 인공치가 이 영역에 위치되고, 연마면 형태가 동적인 근육의 해부학적 형태를 따른다면 근육의 움직임은 의치를 안정시키는 요소로 작용할 뿐 아니라 안면 지지를 통하여 심미성 또한 향상될 수 있다는 장점이 있다.

심하게 흡수된 치조제에서 안정적으로 유지될 수 있는 의치를 제작하기 위해서는 적절한 교합의 형성뿐만 아니라 주변근육 조직과의 조화를 고려한 적절한 연마면의 형성에 대한 고려가 필요하다. 중립대 인상 기법을 통해 기능하는 동안 혀, 볼, 입술에 대한 근신경계가 평형을 이루는 잠재적인 영역을 고려하여 인공치아를 배열하고, 연마면 형태가 동적인 근육의 해부학적 형태를 따르도록 할 수 있으며, 이는 의치의 안정과 유지 및 심미성을 향상시킬 수 있다. 본 증례는 심한 잔존 치조제의 흡수를 보이는 환자에게 중립대 개념을 적용하여 기능과 심미적인 측면에서 임상적으로 만족할 만한 결과를 얻었기에 이를 보고하고자 한다.
