iepicondylar fracture of the humerus is very rare in adults. To date, there have been limited evidence of this injury in the English literature. We report a case of a 65-year-old female with a biepicondylar fracture of the left distal humerus without dislocation. Open reduction and internal fixation with K-wires, cannulated screw, and suture anchor were performed. We obtained stability of the elbow and a satisfactory functional outcome. Because this type of injury is associated with varus and valgus instability, operative reduction and fixation are essential in order to gain stability and early recovery of normal function.

In the field of tissue engineering and reconstruction, the development of efficient biomaterial is in high demand to achieve uncomplicated wound healing. Chronic wounds and excessive scarring are the major complications of tissue repair and, as this inadequate healing continues to increase, novel therapies and treatments for dysfunctional skin repair and reconstruction are important. This paper reviews the various aspects of the complications related to wound healing and focuses on chitosan because of its unique function in accelerating wound healing. The proliferation of keratinocytes is essential for wound closure, and adipose-derived stem cells play a significant role in wound healing. Thus, chitosan in combination with keratinocytes and adipose-derived stem cells may act as a vehicle for delivering cells, which would increase the proliferation of keratinocytes and help complete recovery from injuries.

Iron component in wasted hydrochloric etching solutions from steel works were recovered by electrolysis. The electric conductances of the solutions, as the function of the bath temperature and the ferrousion concen-tration, were measured and the result of the original solution was K=(0.0012+0.0005$\times$10-3T-0.1160$\times$10-6T2)$\times$102S.m-1(T in $^{\circ}C$) The current efficiency was better for the bath using a soluble steel plate anode than for the bath using an insoluble platinized titanium one. Densed electrolytic iron having the purity of higher than 99.99% was ob-tained at the electrolysis conditions of the cathodic current density of 15A/dm2, the bath temperature of $70\pm$$5^{\circ}C$ and the ferrous ion concentration of about 100g/l. The morphologies of the deposited iron were observed by SEM.

The NADH reductase component of the steroid 9.alpha.-hydroxylase from Mycobacterium fortuitum was purified to homogeneity. Recovery of the enzyme from the 50-60% ammonium sulfate saturated fraction was 49%, with a purification factor of 100-fold. The NADH reductase has a relative molecular of 60 KDa as determined by SDS-PAGE. The absorption maxima at 410 and 450 nm indicate the presence of iron-sulfur group and flavin. These prosthetic groups seemed to function as redox groups that transfer electrons from NADH to the following protein. The $K_M$ value for NADH as substrate was $68{\mu}M$. The $NH_2$-terminal amino acid sequence of the reductase was determined as Met-Asp-Ala-Ile-Thr-Asn-Val-Pro-Leu-Pro-Ala-Asn-Glu-Pro-Val-His-Asp-Tyr-Ala-Thr. This sequence does not show a homology with the $NH_2$ -terminal sequences reported for the reductase component of other monooxygenases, suggesting that the NADH reductase component of the steroid 9.alpha.-hydroxylase system is novel.

In 2000, the economy of Asia made a V-character type recovery from the currency and financial crisis in 1997. The increase in exports is assumed to be one of the causes. To negotiate with foreign countries, English must be indispensable in many cases. In this study, we investigated how English education is performed in East Asian countries while focusing on English textbooks. We metrically analyzed some textbooks used junior high schools and high school in Japan and Korea, and elementary schools in China and Singapore to compare them with U.S.A and U.K textbook. We investigated some characteristics of character-and word-appearance of English textbook using an exponential function. Moreover we derived the degree of difficulty far each material through the variety of words and their frequency on the basis of the required English vocabulary in Japanese junior high schools. As a result we could show at which level of U.S.A. or U.K the English textbooks used in East Asian countries are.

The Purpose of this study was to compare the different of normal development and walking characteristics of children with spastic cerebral palsy, and to guide theraputic approach for improve on walking. Key contributions from normal development of standing and walking, abnormol walking pattern of children with spastic cerebral palsy are studies. Spastic cerebral palsy includes an increased factors of problem in standing, walking : These are deformity of lowerextremities, arm used for balancing, asymmetic walking, abnormal walking patterns, build .up Treatment goal is to normal walking patterns. and to prevent secondary deformity. In this study, normal walking is very important factors in daily activities, then to recovery function of children with cerebral palsy, its need more adapted several method.

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the effects of topically applied petrolatum and glycerin on the barrier repair of acetone-induced skin damage in 6 beagle dogs. To confirm the effects of petrolatum and glycerin on acetone disrupted skin models, we performed to evaluate the characteristics of transepidermal water loss and SC hydration and scanning electron microscopic observations. TEWL and SC hydration measurements were carried out 3, 6, 12, 24, 48h after applying petrolatum and glycerin during recovery from acute disruption. Our results showed that there were some different effects between petrolatum and glycerin on the acetone damaged skin such as barrier function repair process and SC hydration status. The results indicate that the significant improvement could be observed in glycerin apply more than petrolatum after acetone damages, and further study will be required.

The closed-loop transfer function of 2-nd order PLL (phase-looked loop)of which loop filter has active-lag 1-st order is found. Considering the three criteria of system performance: the transient response time of the circuit, noise bandwidth by the linear analysis and stability which uses root-locus method, the optimum value of damping factor is 1.0 and the natural frequency which depends upon the signal frequency can be determined after consideration of the trade-off relationship between the transient response time and the noise bandwidth.

Modern version of advanced supersonic fighter have ATCS (Automatic Thrust Control System) to maximum flight safety, fuel efficiency and mission capability the integrated advanced autopilot system such as TFS (Terrain Following System), GCAS (Ground Collision Avoidance System) and AARS (Automatic Attitude Recovery System) and etc. This paper addresses the design and verification of ATCS based on advanced supersonic trainer in HILS (Hardware In the Loop Simulator) with minimum hardware modification to reduce of development cost and maintain of system reliability. The function of ATCS is consisted of target speed hold mode in UA (Up and Away) and angle of attack hold mode in PA (Power Approach). The real-time pilot evaluation reveals that pilot workload is minimized in cruise and approach flight stage by ATCS.

Oral cancer treatment involves the surgical removal of all or part of the maxilla, leaving the patient with a defect that compromises the integrity and function of the oral cavity. The postoperative restoration of esthetics, deglutition, and speech shortens recovery time in the hospital and expedites the patient's return to the community as a functioning member. The surgical obturator is the proven treatment option in such situations. This article describes a simple technique to fabricate a surgical obturator that restores patient's original dentition and facial and palatal tissue form. The obturator fabricated with this technique utilizes the vacuum formed index of patient's original tissue form and duplicated partly in heat and partly in auto polymerizing acrylic resin. Duplication of the original tissue form helps patient to minimize the immense physiological trauma immediately after the surgical resection. The obturator fabricated with this technique supports soft tissues after surgery and minimizes scar contracture and disfigurement, and thus may have a positive effect on the patients' psychology.
