    Notes: To statistically evaluate the factors that influenced speech following maxillectomy, the speech intelligibility (SI) in 54 patients was measured with and without a prosthesis. The mean SI score without a prosthesis in all patients was 35.7 ± 22.7% and that with a prosthesis was 84.9 ± 12.7%. The results of the postmaxillectomy SI statistical analysis revealed that an oro–nasal communication was one of the factors that influenced SI without a prosthesis. The resection of the anterior portion of the soft palate was one of the factors that influenced SI with a prosthesis, which suggested that for some of these patients we should consider specific surgical treatment, aimed at the reconstruction in the deep defect extending to the intratemporal fossa. A new classification of maxillary defects has been proposed which will help to predict the grade of postmaxillectomy speech disorder following surgery.

    Notes: summary  To statistically evaluate the factors that influenced masticatory performance following Maxillectomy, masticatory performance was measured in 43 patients with a post-operative prosthesis by means of a spectrophotometer using adenosine triphosphate (ATP) granules. Our statistical analysis revealed that the number of occluding post-canine teeth and the patient's sex were factors that influenced masticatory performance and demonstrated that it was most important to improve occlusion in the pre-molar/molar region.

    Notes: Abstract  Ultramafic xenoliths are found in Kishyuku Lava, Fukue-jima, Southwest Japan. These include spinel lherzolite, harzburgite and dunite, as well as pyroxenite. The compositions of the constituent minerals of the peridotite xenoliths are in the range of upper mantle peridotites. Variable Cr/(Cr+Al) ratios (0.1–0.5) of spinel, together with a limited range in olivine composition (Fo90–Fo92), indicate that the xenoliths are derived from slightly to highly depleted residual mantle. The combination of previously published clinopyroxene-olivine geothermobarometry and clinopyroxene-orthopyroxene geothermometry applied to the xenoliths yields a high geotherm of 1070° C at 1.0 GPa up to 1200° C at 2.2 GPa. Existence of such depleted upper mantle is compatible with the existing model of asthenospheric injection during the rifting of the Northeast China and the Japan Sea. The high geotherm is caused by thermal perturbation due to the injection of the hot asthenosphere and/or post-rifting uprise of mantle diapirs since 11 Ma.
