This study was conducted to investigate the repellent efficacy of essential oils (Origanum vulgare, Pimpinella anisum, and Tanacetum cinerariifolium) and four plant extracts (Agastache rugosa, Capsicum annuum, Citrus reticulata, and Ginkgo biloba) against Tribolium castaneum (adults and larvae) and Plodia interpunctella (larvae). Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry analysis revealed the presence of carvacrol, anethole, and jasmolin I as the predominant constituent in O. vulgare, P. anisum, and T. cinerariifolium, respectively. Furthermore, ethyl hexopyranoside, 9,12‐octadecadienoic acid, cyclopentanol, and 2‐cresol were identified in A. rugosa, C. annuum, C. reticulata, and G. biloba, respectively. The repellent efficacy of each essential oil, plant extract, and the combination of oils was evaluated using a specially designed cylinder trap for 120 h. Among the three oils, O. vulgare and T. cinerariifolium had greatest repellent efficacy against P. interpunctella larvae. T. cinerariifolium exhibited effective repellence against the adults and larvae of T. castaneum. Therefore, O. vulgare (O) and T. cinerariifolium (T) were selected for further investigation of combined effects. Two essential oils were mixed in three different ratios of OT1 (1:3), OT2 (1:1), and OT3 (3:1). The repellent efficacies of OT1 and OT2 against the adults of T. castaneum were significantly greater than that of OT3. OT1 was effective against the larvae of T. castaneum, whereas OT2 was effective against the larvae of P. interpunctella. OT1 enhanced the repellent efficacy by approximately five times against larvae of T. castaneum, compared with that of T. cinerariifolium. Overall, OT1 was selected as the best repellent substance against all the tested insects.

Early repolarization is a common electrocardiographic (ECG) feature found in young adults, men and athletes, and has been considered to be a benign feature for the last several decades. But recent studies suggest that early repolarization may be related to idiopathic ventricular fibrillation and sudden cardiac death. We report a young man, 35 years old, who had life threatening ventricular fibrillation and sudden cardiac arrest. He was evaluated for cardiac causes of ventricular fibrillation. There was no explanation other than that his ECG showed an early repolarization pattern so we treated him with implantable cardioverter defibrillator. Thus, we suggest that early repolarization may be related with life threatening ventricular arrhythmia.

Replacement resorption is followed by the delayed replantation of an avulsed tooth. Currently no effective treatment is substantiated for replacement resorption. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of stannous fluoride, bisphosphonate(etidronate disodium) and gallium nitrate, which have been shown to reduce dentin resorption, on human dentin. Osteoclasts were collected from tibeas of chich embryo. The cells were well agitated to prevent adhesion and seeded onto the sliced human dentin wafers which had been soaked in either culture media(control), or several different concentrations of stannous fluoride, etidronate disodium(1-hydroxyethylidene-1, 1-bisphosphonate disodium), and gallium nitrate. Resorption was measured by counting the number of resorptive pit produced by the cells. Results are ad follows. Stannous fluoride and etidronate disodium showed statistically significant reduction of dentin resorption(p<0.05) but the effect of stannous fluoride seemed to be its high cytotoxicity. Etidronate disodium did not show cytotoxicities in all experimented concentrations. Gallium nitrate did not show differences in resorption either between different concentrations of from the control group.

The main purpose of the demanding surgical corrections aimed to improve esthetic appearance and masticatory function. But there are presumable etiologic factors in the development of T M symptoms after orthognathic surgery, that is, potential joint pathology due to different morphology of TMJ, hypombility after surgery, changes in condylar position, and changes in neuromuscular adaptation. These factors can influence on TMJ function. It is very important to find the etiological factors of TMD after surgery. Consequently, this survey was performed to evaluate TMJ function in 65 patients by questionaires, physical examination, radiogram after maxillofacial surgical corrections of the deformity patient. All patients were received pre- and post-operative orthodontic treatment. An acylic splint(wafer) was constructed prior to surgery with occlusal contacts in the anterior and posterior. The study group was consisted of 26 males and 39 females. The patients were evaluated at an average fellow-up period of 17.2 months with a range of 15 to 27 months. The results obtained were as follows: 1. The 65 patients were found to present preoperatively TMJ dysfunction symptom with an incidence of 18.5%(12 cases). 2. The patients with no TMJ dysfunction symptoms preoperatively, presented such symptom with an indicence of 26.4%(14 cases) postoperatively. 3. The main symptoms of TMJ dysfunction were 17 joints(15 clicking), TMJ pain(5 cases). 4. The mean preoperative MIO(maximal interincisal opening) of 49.7㎜ was reduced to 43.9㎜ postoperatively after sagittal split ramus osteotomy(n=38) with wire osteosynthesis(p<0.05).

Efavirenz indinavir and kaleta (co-formulation of lopinavir and ritonavir) are important antiretroviral drugs which have been proved to be human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) protease inhibitors and reduced the morbidity and mortality associated with HIV-1 infection. A brief and fast high performance liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS, API 4000) method for the determination of 4 anti-retroviral agents (efavirenz, lopinavir, indinavir, ritonavir) in human plasma was developed and validated. A simple protein precipitation method was used on 100μl of human plasma. And internal standard solution (10 ng/ml methaqualone) 1ml and reconstitution solution (MeOH) 1ml were added. After vortexing for 30 s and centrifuging at 13,200rpm for 10min, 2μl of supernatant was injected into the column (XTerra MS C_(18) column, 2.1mm × 50mm 3.5㎛ particle size). The mobile phase consisted of MeOH and 0.1% formic acid in water (80:20 , v/v). The chromatogram was run for 1.5 min at a flow rate of 300μl/min. A triple quadrupole mass spectrometer was operated in a positive ion mode (lopinavir, indinavir, ritonavir) and negative mode (efavirenz), simultaneously and multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) was used for drug quantification. The precursor-to-product ion transitions of m/z 316→69 (efavirenz) and 629→447 (lopinavir) and 614→421 (indinavir) and 721→296 (ritonavir)were used to measure and quantify the analyte. The limit of quantitation (LOQ) was 50 ng/ml (efavirenz, indinavir, ritonavir) and 100 ng/ml (lopinavir). The weighted (l/y²) calibration curve was linear over human plasma range 50∼5000ng/ml (efavirenz), 100∼20000ng/ml (lopinavir), 50∼10000ng/ml (indinavir), 50∼2000ng/ml (ritonavir), correlation coefficient(r²) of 4 antiretroviral agents were higher than 0.998. Accuracies and intra-run precisions ranged within 86.60 and 113.29%, 1.06 and 11.16% for all 4 drugs analysed. This analytical method used to determine these drugs was fast and easy to perform, with minimal sample preparation, and without compromising precision and accuracy. The developed method was successful to determine antiretroviral agents in human plasma, and proved suitable for clinical pharmacokinetic study.

구정은,백광우 大韓小兒齒科學會 2009 大韓小兒齒科學會誌 Vol.36 No.2

치외치는 치아의 교합면에 부가적인 교두나 돌기(tubercle)를 가진 치아의 형태 이상이다. 치외치는 1-4%의 유병율을 보이며 하악 소구치에서 발생 빈도가 높다. 치외치의 돌기는 쉽게 마모되거나 파절되어 치수 노출, 치수 생활력 상실, 안면부 감염, 골수염 등을 일으킬 수 있다. 또한, 돌기가 파절될 때 치외치의 치근단이 미성숙 상태인 경우가 많아 근관 치료가 쉽지 않다. 미성숙 영구치의 근관치료 시 수산화칼슘이 널리 사용되어 왔으나 내원 빈도 단축을 위해 여러 대체 재료들이 제안되어 왔다. 그 중 하나인 Mineral Trioxide Aggregate는 우수한 생체적합성과 변연 폐쇄성을 특징으로 하며, 미성숙 영구치의 근관치료 시 치료 기간을 단축시킬 수 있다. 본 증례보고에서는 치외치로 인한 치수 괴사로 봉와직염이 발생한 환자를 Mineral Trioxide Aggregate로 치료하였다. 미성숙 치근단을 가진 하악 소구치에 Mineral Trioxide Aggregate를 이용한 치근단형성술(apexification)을 시행하여 임상적 및 방사선학적으로 양호한 결과를 얻었으며, 한 증례에서는 치근단유도술(apexogenesis)의 결과와 같이 계속적인 치근 성장이 관찰되었다. Dens evaginatus is a dental anomaly involving an extra cusp or tubercle that protrudes from the occlusal surface of the affected tooth. The prevalence of dens evaginatus is 1 to 4 percent, and dens evaginatus is observed most commonly in premolars. It can be worn or fractured easily, resulting in pulpal exposure, pulpal infection, loss of vitality, facial infection and osteomyelitis. Since the tooth frequently has the immature apex when the tubercle is fractured, there is difficulty in treatment. Although calcium hydroxide is widely used for pulp treatment of an immature permanent tooth, several alternatives have been suggested to reduce patient' s appointments. Mineral trioxide aggregate is considered biocompatible and has excellent marginal sealing ability. In addition, it can minimize patient's visits. In this case report, apexification with MTA was attempted on the immature premolars in patients with cellulitis patient, caused by pulp necrosis due to dens evaginatus. Favorable clinical and radiologic results were achieved. In one case, continued root formation was observed.

To investigate the effect and mechanism of caffeine on endurance exercise, two experiments were performed. First, to test caffeine effect on aerobic exercise, 200-300g Sprague-Dawley rats were used and three groups, control group, low caffeine injection group and high caffeine injection group, were divided. Blood smpling by heart puncture were done at rest, after 30 min treadmill exercise, and after maximal exercise. Blood glucose, free fatty acid concentration were detected and following results were obtained. Glucose concentration showed significant difference between groups(p=0.0305) and also significant changes were exhibited between time(p=0.0004). Free fatty acid concentration had no difference between groups. but had significance between times(p=0.00065). Exercise endurance performance time showed significant difference(p=0.02350 in high caffeine injection group compared to control group. In this experiments, endurance exercise capacity was increased by caffeine injection. Therefore, second experiment was performed to investigate the effect of caffeine on ion current induced inhibitory amino acid neurotransmitter. GABA and glycine. Single periaqueductal gray neuron was acutely dissociated and nystatin perforated patch clamp was performed under voltage clamping condition. Caffeine evoked outward current in PAG neuron dose dependent manner. 1mM of caffeine application had no response. but 3mM caffeine evoked about 32.5±8.539pA outward ion current and 10mM caffeine evoked about 215.46±19.4pA outward current. 10^-2mM GABA activated Cl￣current and recorded by inward current. Caffeine inhibited GABA activated Cl￣ current concentration dependent manner. 10^-2mM of caffeine had no effect on 1-^-2mM of GABA response. but 10^-1mM caffeine inhibited GABA activated Cl￣ current about 5.74±2.13%, 1mM caffeine inhibited about 17.25±2.70%, 10mM caffeine inhibited GABA response about 45.31±7.71%. 10^-1mM of glycine activated Cl￣ current and also recorded by inward current. Caffeine inhibited glycine activated Cl￣ current concentration dependent manner. 10^-2mM caffeine decreased glycine activated Cl￣ current about 4.61±1.650%, 10^-1mM caffeine decreased about 6.49±2.24%, 1mM caffeine decreased about 26.82±4.27%, and 10mM caffeine decreased glycine response about 94.47±1.39%. These results suggest that caffeine inhibite inhibitory amino acid, GABA and glycine, this response causes excitation of CNS and this seems to be the basic mechanism of increasing effect to aerobic exercise performance by caffeine.
