Esthetic is one of the prime goal of the orthodontic treatment. The upper incisor position in important because it is decisive in balanced smile. This study was attempted to obtain the standards and equations on the esthetic upper incisor position. Lateral cephalometric radiographs of 66 Korean young adult females who were candidates of Miss Korea Beauty Contest were traced, measured and statistically analyzed. The results were as follows ; 1. The mean and standard deviation of the measurement for upper incisor position were obtained in the Korean Beauty. 2. Among the measurements of the axis of upper incisor, 1 to SN and 1 to FH were high1y correlated with FH-MP, ANB, FH-N Pag, Y-axis, but 1 to SN (Is-Pr) to present axial inclination of labial surface of upper Incisor didn't have any correlation with the measurements for dentofacial pattern. 3. Among the measurements for the vertical position of upper incisor, 1 to stom had low correlation with to measurements for dentofacial pattern and 1 to PP(mm) was highly correlated with the measurements for facial growth direction. 4. Sixteen multiple regression equations were established to predict upper incisor position balancing with dentofacial pattern. 5. It does not have much power of persuasion to predict esthetic upper incisor position from the measurements for dentofacial pattern.

The branches of the axillary artery have been studied in 38 Korean female cadavers. 1. The superior thoracic artery arose from the first part and the second part of the axillary artery in 84% of sides. 2. The thoracoacromial artery arose from the axillary artery near the superomedial border of the axillaly artery more often (91%) than from any other source. 3. The lateral thoracic artery was found on 64% of the sides as a main axillary artery, usually arising from the second part of the axillary artery(61%). It arose from the subscapular artery in 28%. 4. The subscapular artery was seen as the lagrgest of the axillary artery. It arose from the second part (42%) and the third (58%) of the axillary artery. 5. The posterior circumflex humeral artery was a direct branch of the third part of axillary artery in 37% of sides. In 21% fo sides the posterior circumflex humeral artery arose by a common stem from the third part of the axillary artery. In 33% of sides the posterior circumflex humeral artery arose from the subscapular artery. 6. The anterior circumflex humeral artery was found more constantly at the third part of the axillary artery than the posterior circumflex humeral artery was. It arose from a direct branch of the third part of the axillary artery in 70% of sides.

Four-part displaced fractures, four-part fracture-dislocations, impression fractures of the articular surface involving greater than 50% of the head, and head-splitting fractures are to be best treated by primary prosthetic replacement. 3 primary prosthetic replacements were performed for the treatment of the proximal humeral fractures(l case of four-part displaced fracture, 2 cases of fracture-dislocation) and all cases were followe( up at least 3 years. Case II had excellent result, case I was satisfactory, and case III failure by Neers numerical ratin method. There were proximal subluxation roentgenologically in case I and III.

Coenzyme Q is concentrated in Golgi apparatus membranes and mitochondria, but not in other membranes. Although it is difficult to prove the metabolic action of coenzyme Q administered exogenously in clinical cases, the effect of this substance can be evaluated by criteria based on clinical findings. In an attempt to evaluate the effect of coenzyme Q for the treatment of 67 patients(male 26 cases, female 41 cases) of congestive heart failure, we administered Coenzyme Q1030mg daily for 4 to 8 weeks. Most of them were valvular heart disease(74.6%) and hypertension (14.9%). Clinical effects were evaluated at least 4 weeks later by the criteria using a scoring method of severity of congestive heart failure which was devised by Ishiyama, etc. In summary, a definite effect was found in 13 cases(19%) and a mild effect was observed in 46 cases(69%). During treatment there were no significant side effects, and also no significant changes in heart rate and blood pressure.

The authors obtained the following results through comparative investigation between experiences from authors clinical study of ureterolithotomy by posterior vertical incision devised by Gil-Vernet and Yoon`s clinical study of ureterolithotomy by posterior vertical incision and his lumbar incision. 1. Operation time was average 62 min. and blood loss was average about 50cc. So operation time and blood loss were similar to Yoon`s result but more or less reduced as compared with lumbar incision. 2. Postoperative urine leakage and ambulation time were 1 day and 2 day that were more or less reduced as compared with Yoon`s result. 3. Ipsilateral lower abdominal wall protrusion was noted postoperatively. We think, this is from subcostal nerve injury. 4. Postoperatively sensation change on subcostal nerve, ilohypogastric nerve and ilioinguinal nerve innervation sites were noted in half of all, but disappeared in several weeks. Considering above results, while posterior vertical incision has merits such as minimal operative invasion and early postoperative ambulation time, but it often notes inevitable nerve damage. So, we think better results would be gained by careful attention to nerve and vascular distribution.

The solid and hematologic cancer are occasionally accompanied by peripheral blood eosinophilia and suggest tumor necrosis or wide dissemination, but the mechanisms underlying this curious relationship remain obscure. The association of this eosinophilic leukemoid reaction with carcinoma seems to occur must frequently with bronchogenic carcinoma. Several mechanisms for this association were considered: eosinophil chemotactic factor, eosinophil mediated by T-lymphocyte, and eosinopoietic hormone. We are here reporting a case of bronchoalveolar cell carcinoma of lung associated with peripheral eosinophilia in a 60-year-old male patient.

Thelazia callipaeda was first described by Railliet and Henry in 1910. The first human case was reported by Stuckey in 1917, who extracted four worms in the eye of a coolie in Peiping. In Korea, seven cases of human thelaziasis have been already reported and all of the worms were identified to be thelazia callipaeda. The present paper is to report the 8th human infested case of Thelazia callipaeda in Korea. The patient was 25 years old virgin who had lived in Seoul since birth. She experienced lacrimation and moving foreign body sensation of the left eye, and extracted 1 living worm from the left eye by herself on one day prior to examination. Microscopic measurements of an extracted worm are as follows; A worm(male) is 13.0 mm B worm(male) is 13.1 mm and C worm(female) is 19.0 mm in length. It was confirmed as Thelazia callipaeda Railliet et Henry 1910.
