    Abstract This study presents the current literature regarding the investigation of varnish contamination among the various types of lubricant contaminations. As the duration of use of lubricants increases, the lubricant deteriorates and may become contaminated. Varnish has been known to cause filter plugging, sticking of the hydraulic valves and fuel injection pumps, flow obstruction, clearance reduction, poor heating and cooling performance, and increased friction and wear in various lubrication systems. These problems may also result in mechanical system failures, performance degradation, and increased maintenance and repair costs. To improve the problems caused by varnish contamination, an adequate understanding of varnish is required. Therefore, in this review, the definitions and characteristics, generating machinery, generating mechanisms, causes, measurement methods, and prevention or removal methods of varnish are summarized. Most of the data presented herein are reports from manufacturers related to lubricants and machine maintenance that are included in published works. We expect that this summary will be helpful to those who are engaged in reducing or preventing varnish-related problems.

    Abstract Background: The cerebellum is connected to the brain stem by three pairs of cerebellar peduncles (CPs)-superior (SCP), middle (MCP), and inferior (ICP)-which carry proprioceptive information to regulate movement and maintain balance and posture. Injury or damage to the CPs caused by tumors, infarcts, or traumatic brain injuries (TBI) results in poor coordination and balance problems. Current data on CP-related injuries and their effect on balance control are sparse and restricted to a few case studies. There have been no studies to date that have investigated CP injuries in a large sample of patients with balance problems following a mild TBI. Hence, we investigated CP-related injuries in patients with balance problems following mild TBI using diffusion tensor tractography (DTT).
    Methods: Twenty-one patients with TBI and 21 normal subjects were recruited for this study. Balance was evaluated using the Balance Error Scoring System (BESS). Three DTT-related parameters-fractional anisotropy (FA), apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), and fiber number (FN) of the CPs-were measured.
    Results: The FN values of the SCP and ICP in the patient group were significantly lower than those in the control group (
    Conclusions: Using DTT, we demonstrated injuries to the SCP and ICP in mild TBI patients with balance problems. Our results suggest that DTT could be a useful tool for detecting injuries to the CPs that may not be identified on conventional brain magnetic resonance imaging in mild TBI patients.

    Abstract In patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), the relationship between consciousness and the thalamocortical tract (TCT), which links the thalamic intralaminar nuclei (ILN) and the cerebral cortex, was investigated. Forty-one patients with ICH were assigned to 1 of 2 groups according to their preservation of consciousness as determined by their Glasgow coma scale (GCS) score. Patient group A had impaired consciousness (GCS < 15, 21 patients), and patient group B had intact consciousness (GCS = 15, 20 patients). The control group included 20 age- and sex-matched healthy subjects. For all groups, the TCTs from the thalamic ILN of both sides were reconstructed using a probabilistic tractography method based on a multifiber model. In addition, tract volume (TV) values were determined. The TV values for the ipsilateral TCT from the thalamic ILN of the all-patient groups and those for contralateral TCT of the patient group B showed no significant differences between ICH and contra-ICH sides (P > .05). The TV results for the ipsilateral and contralateral TCTs from the thalamic ILN of the ICH and contra-ICH sides were significantly different among the 3 groups (P < .05). Among the patients, there were moderate positive correlations between GCS scores and TV values of the ipsilateral TCT on the ICH and contra-ICH sides (R = 0.477, P < .05; R = 0.426, P < .05). The TV of the ipsilateral TCT from the thalamic ILN on the ICH and contra-ICH sides was significantly correlated with the consciousness level in patients with ICH. Our results could be helpful when developing therapeutic strategies for ICH patients with disorders of consciousness.

    Abstract Objectives: Using diffusion tensor tractography (DTT), we demonstrated the spinothalamic tract (STT) injury in patients with central pain following whiplash injury. Our primary hypothesis is that fractional anisotropy (FA) and tract volume (TV) of the STT in injured people differ from non-injured people. Our secondary hypothesis is that the direction of the collision results in a different type of injury.
    Methods: Nineteen central pain patients following whiplash injury and 19 normal control subjects were recruited. The STT was reconstructed by the DTT, the FA and TV of the STT were measured. In addition, different characteristics of the STT injury according to the collision direction were investigated.
    Results: The FA value did not differ significantly between the patient and control groups (
    Conclusions: We found the STT injury mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) who suffered central pain after whiplash injury, using DTT. In addition, we demonstrated different characteristics of the STT injury according to the collision direction. We believe that injury of the STT would be usefully detected by DTT following whiplash injury.

    Abstract In this study, three problems associated with diagnosing diffuse axonal injury (DAI) in patients with traumatic brain injury are reviewed: the shortage of scientific evidence supporting the 6-hour loss of consciousness (LOC) diagnostic criterion to discriminate concussion and DAI, the low sensitivity of conventional brain MRI in the detection of DAI lesions, and the inappropriateness of the term diffuse in DAI. Pathological study by brain biopsy is required to confirm DAI; however, performing a brain biopsy for the diagnosis of DAI in a living patient is impossible. Therefore, the diagnosis of DAI in a living patient is clinically determined based on the duration of LOC, clinical manifestations, and the results of conventional brain MRI. There is a shortage of scientific evidence supporting the use of the 6-hour LOC criterion to distinguish DAI from concussion, and axonal injuries have been detected in many concussion cases with a less than 6-hour LOC. Moreover, due to the low sensitivity of conventional brain MRI, which can only detect DAI lesions in approximately half of DAI patients, diagnostic MRI criteria for DAI are not well established. In contrast, diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) has been shown to have high sensitivity for the detection of DAI lesions. As DTI is a relatively new method, further studies aimed at the establishment of diagnostic criteria for DAI detection using DTI are needed. On the other hand, because DAI distribution is not diffuse but multifocal, and because axonal injury lesions have been detected in concussion patients, steps to standardize the use of terms related to axonal injury in both concussion and DAI are necessary.
