The Mechanism for sorting out the covariance effect is known as the covariance analysis. The sorting out of regression and correlation effect is an obvious application of the covariance analysis. The result of Do population by age groups (15 age interval) from 1966 census and from, 1970 Census has been applied to analyzing covariabiltiy by the analysis of covariance. The results are as follows. The significance of the regression of 1970 population on 1966 population is assured as F=116.5. There is a significant difference between mean of each age groups(F=88.1). There is very little evidence of significant heterogeneity of regression between age group. (F=0.72).

The model of lymphocyte differentiation described for Lukes-Collins' classification of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is related particularly to morphological alterations of nuclei of follicular center lymphocytes by antigenic stimulation. The authors carried out ultrastructural and morphometric studies to investigate morphological alterations during lymphocyte transformation on the nuclear profiles of follicular center, parafollicular and mantle zone lymphocytes in ten tonsillectomy cases of chronic hypertrophic tonsillitis. The nuclear parameters measured included nuclear area, contour index, frequency invagination and cleft, depth of invagination and nuclear diameters. Follicular centers contained a mixed population of lymphocytes consisting of untransformed (type 1), partially transformed (type 2) and fully transformed (type 3) lymphocytes. During lymphocyte transformation in both follicular, and parafollicular and mantle zones, the nuclei had a gradual and progressive increase in size. The nuclear contour index of type 2 nuclei of both follicular and parafollicular and mantle zones tended to be higher than those of type 1 and 3, indicating a greater degree of irregularity and variability of nuclear profiles. Invaginated and cleaved lymphocytes were not confined to me transformed lymphocytes. A considerable portion of lymphocytes had invaginations and clefts in parafollicular and mantle zone as well as follicular center. No difference on the depth of invagination was noted in type 1, type 2 and type 3 lymphocytes. The results indicate that some promise of the Lukes-Collins conepts of follicular center cells and the process of lymphocyte transformation in follicular centers may be necessary to revise

Many authors have studies to relieve the pain after arthniscopic knee surgery. We undertook a randomized, double-blind trial to compare the efficacy of intraarticular morphme and bupivacaine between arthroscopic meniscus surgery group and cruciate ligament reconstruction group. As an results, intraarticular injection of morphine-bupivacaine combination is effective to control pain after minor athroscopic surgery such as menisectomy and meniscal repair ancf intraarticu]ar injection of mor- phine-bupivacaine combination is not effective to relieve pain after major arthroscopic surgery including cru- ciate ligament reconstruction. So, more potent analgesics should be adminishated.

The first successful bone transplantation carried out in 1688 by Van Meek'ren, a Dutch surgeon. The ideal bone substitute should be biocompatible, osteoinductive or at least osteoconductive, available in unlimited quantity, low cost and have satisfactory mechanical properties. To accomplish these goals, autografts are still preferred material. However, bone harvesting procedures have been focused to solve the following problems; necessity of a second surgical site, morbidity and potential deformity of the donor site, an increased operative time, donor availability limitations, and resorption of autogenic bone grafts.Ten adult white New Zealand rabbits, three, 10 mm in diameter, full layer skull defects were made in the frontoparietal bone. Two bone defects were filled with hydroxyapatite and powdered eggshell, the other defect was not filled(control). All animals were sacrified at 10 weeks, the specimens were examined macroscopically to test for graft mobility. The graft with surrounding bone was then harvested and studied by histology. The results were as follows: 1. Control: Bone regeneration occurred nearly complete. 2. Hydroxyapatite: Macroscopically - No encapsulation. Despite a gross delineation between implant and bone, imlant was firmly united to bone. Histology - Bony trabeculae surrounded by proliferated connective tissue are observed in the defect site and implant. Osteoblastic rimming is noted along the bone fragments 3. Powdered eggshell:Macroscopically - Grafted site was encapsulated by proliferated connective tissue and palpable softer than the surrounding bone. Histology - The presence of eggshell particles encapsulated by fibrous connective tissue. Partial bone regeneration from the defect margin was noticed, but the bone healing was never complete. In conclusion, the use of safe and inexpensive material is recommended for filling limited bone defects in non-weight bearing areas. The use of powdered eggshell for bone substitute may also be considered, after further studies, to access its long term stability, porosity and biocompatibility.
