고밀도 FeRAM (Ferroe!ectric Random Access Memory) 소자를 개발하기 위해서는 강유전체 물질을 이용한 안정적인 스텍형의 커패시터 개발이 필수적이다. 특히 $(Bi,La)_4Ti_3O_{12}$ (BLT) 강유전체 물질을 이용하는 경우에는 낮은 열처리 온도에서도 균질하고 높은 값의 잔류 분극 값을 확보하는 것이 가장 중요한 과제 중의 하나이다. 불행히도, BLT 물질은 a-축으로는 약 $50\;{\mu}C/cm^2$ 정도의 높은 잔류 분극 값을 갖지만, c-축 방향으로는 $4\;{\mu}C/cm^2$ 정도의 낮은 잔류 분극 값을 나타내는 동의 강한 비등방성 특성을 보인다. 따라서 BLT 박막에서 각각 입자들의 크기 및 결정 방향성을 세밀하게 제어하는 것은 무엇보다 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 16 Mb의 1T/1C (1-transistor/1-capacitor) 형의 FeRAM 소자를 BLT 박막을 적용하여 제작하였다. 솔-젤 (sol-gel) 용액을 이용하여 스핀코팅법으로 BLT 박막을 증착하고, 후속 열처리 공정을 RTP (rapid thermal process) 공정을 이용하여 수행하였다. 커패시터의 하부 전극 및 상부 전극은 각각 Pt/IrOx/lr 및 Pt을 적용하였다. 반응성 이온 에칭 (RIE: reactive ion etching) 공정을 이용하여 커패시터를 형성시킨 후, 32k-array (unit capacitor: $0.68\;{\mu}m$) 패턴에서 측정한 스위칭 분극 (dP=P*-P^) 값은 약 $16\;{\mu}C/cm^2$ 정도이고, 웨이퍼 내에서의 균일도도 2.8% 정도로 매우 우수한 특성을 보였다. 그러나 단위 셀들의 특성을 평가하기 위하여 bit-line의 전압을 측정한 결과, 약 10% 정도의 커패시터에서 불량이 발생하였다. 그리고 이러한 불량 젤들은 매우 불규칙적으로 분포함을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 불량 원인을 파악하기 위하여 양호한 젤과 불량이 발생한 셀에서의 BLT 박막의 미세구조를 분석하였다. 양호한 셀의 BLT 박막 입자들은 불량한 셀에 비하여 작고 비교적 균일한 크기를 갖고 있었다. 이에 비하여 불량한 셀에서의 BLT 박막에는 과대 성장한 입자들이 존재하고 이에 따라서 입자 크기가 매우 불균질한 것으로 확인되었다. 또 이러한 과대 성장한 입자들은 거의 모두 c-축 배향성을 나타내었다. 이상의 실험 결과들로부터, BLT 박막을 이용하여 제작한 FeRAM 소자에서 발생하는 불규칙한 셀 불량의 주된 원인은 c-축 배향성을 갖는 과대 성장한 입자의 생성임을 알 수 있었다. 즉 BLT 박막을 이용하여 FeRAM 소자를 제작하는 경우, 균일한 크기의 입자 및 c-축 배향성의 입자 억제가 매우 중요한 기술적 요소임을 알 수 있었다.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between vasomotor symptoms with upper-lower body temperature differences, and to identify Kidney Deficiency pattern (腎虛證) in menopausal women. Methods: 51 women who visited Kangnam Kyung-Hee Oriental Hospital from July to December, 2013 were analyzed. The experimental group consisted of 30 patients reported with vasomotor symptoms (Vasomotor symptom group, VG), while the control group consisted of 21 patients without vasomotor symptoms (Control group, CG). According to their chief complaints, VG was further divided into VHG (vasomotor-hot flash group) and VCG (vasomotor-cold hypersensitivity group). The temperature differences between upper and lower body part (CV17-CV4), proximal and distal extremity part (LU4-HT8, ST32-LR3) were checked. All patients reported other complaints such as headache, sweating, anxiety, dyspepsia, leukorrhea, which belong to Kidney Yang Deficiency pattern (腎陽虛證) or Kidney Yin Deficiency pattern (腎陰虛證). The relationship between vasomotor symptom and repetition rate of additional complaints were analyzed. Results: Statistical analysis showed that lower abdomen temperature of experimental group was lower than the control group. Temperature differences of upper and lower body (CV17-CV4) was significantly larger in vasomotor symptom group. VHG had more symptoms of sweating, chest discomfort, constipation, which belong to Kidney Yang Deficiency pattern group. VCG had more symptoms of leukorrhea, diarrhea, and dyspepsia, which belong to Kidney Yin Deficiency pattern group. Conclusions: Climacteric women who suffered from vasomotor symptoms showed lower temperature tendency in [CV4], larger temperature differences in [CV17-CV4] compared to the control group. Among them, VHG showed more symptoms of Kidney Yin Deficiency pattern, whereas VCG showed more symptoms of Kidney Yang Deficiency pattern.

Objectives: This study aims to analyze the medical record of eight cases of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in a local Korean medicine clinic, in order to provide evidence on Korean medicine treatment of PCOS and to suggest the direction of future studies. Methods: The medical records of eight cases diagnosed with PCOS based on 2003 Rotterdam Criteria and whose total testosterone level was 0.53 ng/ml and over were retrospectively analyzed. The primary outcome was total testosterone level, and the secondary outcomes included luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) levels, LH/FSH ratio, weight, last mentrual period (LMP), numerical rating scale (NRS) score of dysmenorrhea, and other associated symptoms pre- and post-treatment. Korean medicine treatment consists of the complex herbal prescription consisting of Yukmijihwang-tang, Baekho-tang, Daesiho-tang, and Gyejibokryeong-hwan, modified according to symptoms; acupuncture and electroacupuncture on 中脘 (CV12), 下脘 (CV10), 關元 (CV4), 石門 (CV5), 合谷 (LI4), 太衝 (LR3), 三陰交 (SP6), and 懸鍾 (GB39); and indirect moxibustion on 神闕 (CV8). Results: The average total testosterone level lowered statistically significantly after the treatment. The average FSH and LH levels lowered with insignificance, while the average LH/FSH ratio and weight lowered statistically significantly. During the treatment period of three to six months, every patient had the menstrual cycle shortened except for one case; and two cases with infertility problem succeeded in being pregnant. There was no adverse event. Conclusions: The Korean medicine treatment was found effective in treating PCOS, especially regarding hyperandrogenism, amenorrhea or oligomenorrhea, and infertility.

Objectives: This study investigated the treatment response to Korean medicine of a paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration (PCD) patient with dysarthria and weakness of distal extremity. Case presentation: A 53-year-old female diagnosed with PCD complained of dysarthria and weakness of distal extremity. During 32-day hospitalization, she was treated with Korean medicine, namely, herbal medicine (modified Gamiguibi-tang), acupuncture (15 minutes twice a day at CV23, HT7, LI4, LR3, ST36, SP6, GB20, TE17, PC6, GV20, Ex-HN1, GV24 etc.), moxibustion, and cupping, combined with Western medicine (prednisolone, azathioprine) and physical therapy. Post-treatment, the patient global assessment (PGA) score of dysarthria fell from 100 to 60; grasp power rose from 15 kg to 19 kg and 13 kg to 17 kg in the right and left hands, respectively; and the 5-level EQ-5D version (EQ-5D-5L), EQ visual analogue scale (EQ-VAS), and Beck depression inventory (BDI-II) scores changed from 10 to 8, 0 to 80, and 34 to 7 respectively. Follow-up visits continued for about a month after discharge, improvement in symptoms maintained, and there were no significant side effects. Conclusions: Given the lack of standard treatment for PCD, Korean medicine can be tried clinically for the treatment of PCD patients with dysarthria and weakness of distal extremity. However, further studies with control groups are needed.

목 적: 현대 방사선치료기술에서 종양표적위치 및 정상장기에 정확한 선량을 전달하기 위해 여러 방법의 영상유도방사선치료(Image Guided Radiation Therapy, IGRT)가 사용되고 있으며 그 중 선형가속기에 장착된 CBCT(Cone Beam Computed Tomography, CBCT)와 이외 장치인 ExacTrac(ExacTrac X-ray System)이 있다. 두 시스템을 비교한 이전 연구들에서는 Offline-review 이용하여 후향적으로 팬텀 및 환자의 Set-up 오차를 분석하거나 X, Y, Z 축과 하나의 회전방향(Couch Rotation)으로만 연구되어졌다. 본 연구에서는 Head and Neck Cancer 환자를 대상으로 CBCT와 ExacTrac을 이용하여 한 치료중심센터에서 각각 6 DoF(Degree Of Freedom) IGRT를 시행한 후, 두 IGRT 장비에서 나타난 팬텀 및 환자의 Set-up 오차, 환자 Set-up에 걸리는 시간, 노출 방사선량의 비교를 통해 유용성을 평가하고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: Rando Phantom을 이용하여 환자 움직임을 배제한 상태의 Set-up 오차 평가와 Head and Neck Cancer 환자의 Set-up 오차 값 두 가지 경우로 나누어 획득하였다. 노출 방사선량 평가는 유리선량계로 하였다. 환자 Set-up 후 IGRT 시행하는데 소요되는 시간을 평가하기 위해 Head and Neck Cancer 환자 11명을 대상으로 하였다. 총 치료기간동안 환자 당 평균 10회의 CBCT와 ExacTrac 영상을 동시에 얻었고, 관심영역지정(Region Of Interest, ROI) 설정 후 6D 온라인 자동위치교정(Online Automatching) 값의 차를 6개의 축(Translation group: SI, AP, LR; Rotation group: Pitch, Roll, Rtn)으로 각각 계산하였다. 결 과: Phantom과 환자에서 Set-up 오차는 Translation group에서 1mm 미만, Rotation group에서 1.5° 미만의 차이가 보였으며, Rtn 값을 제외한 다른 모든 축의 RMS 값이 1mm, 1° 미만으로 나타났다. 각 시스템에서 최종적으로 Set-up 오차 교정까지 걸리는 시간은 CBCT를 이용한 IGRT에서는 평균 256±47.6sec, ExacTrac을 이용 시 평균 84±3.5sec로 각각 나타났다. 1회 치료 당 IGRT에 의한 방사선 노출선량은 Head and Neck 부위 7곳의 측정위치 중 Oral Mucosa에서 CBCT와 ExacTrac이 각각 2.468mGy, 0.066mGy로 상대적으로 ExacTrac에 비해 피폭선량이 37배 높게 측정되었다. 결 론: CBCT와 ExacTrac 두 시스템 간의 6D 온라인 자동위치교정을 통해 Set-up 오차는 두 시스템의 자체적인 Systematic error 뿐 아니라, 환자 움직임(Random error)를 포함한 Set-up 오차가 1mm, 1.02° 미만으로 나타났다. 이는 본원에서 Head and Neck IMRT 치료 시 PTV Margin이 3mm이라는 것을 고려했을 때, 이 오차범위는 합리적으로 사료된다. 하지만 치료기간 동안 환자체중변화로 인한 따른 표적, 손상위험장기의 변화를 고려했을 때 CBCT와 적절히 병용하여 사용하는 것이 좋을 것으로 사료된다.

Objective: Based on the fact that fine particles are more likely to produce negative influences on the health of occupants as well as the quality of indoor air compared to coarse particles, it is critical to determine concentrations of aerosol particles with different sizes. Thus, this study focused on the size distribution and concentrations of aerosol particles in university buildings. Method: Aerosol particles in indoor air were collected from four areas: corridors in buildings(In-CO), lecture rooms(In-RO), laboratories(In-LR), and a cafeteria(In-RE). Samples were also collected from outside for comparison between the concentrations of indoor and outdoor particles. For the collection of the samples, an eight stage non-viable cascade impactor was used. Result: The average concentration of $PM_{10}$ in the samples collected from indoor areas was $34.65-91.08{\mu}g/m^3$,and the average for $PM_{2.5}$ was $22.65-60.40{\mu}g/m^3$. The concentrations of the aerosol particles in the corridors, lecture rooms, and laboratories were relatively higher than the concentrations collected from other areas. Furthermore, in terms of mass median aerodynamic diameter(MMAD), the corridors and lecture rooms had higher numbers due to their characteristics, showing $2.36{\mu}m$ and $2.11{\mu}m$, respectively. Laboratories running an electrolysis experiment showed $1.58{\mu}m$, and the cafeteria with regular maintenance and ventilation had $1.96{\mu}m$. Conclusion: The results showed that the $PM_{10}$ concentrations of all samples did not exceed indoor air quality standards. However, the $PM_{2.5}$ concentration was over the standard and, in particular, the concentration of fine particles collected from the laboratories was relatively higher, which could be an issue for the occupants. Therefore, it is important to improve the quality of the indoor air in university buildings.

Objectives: To analyze whether a concept similar to Korean 'Hwabyung' exists in China. We investigated the status of clinical studies conducted in China for relevant diseases and trends of the traditional Chinese medicinal (TCM) treatment adopted in clinical studies. Methods: To explore the concept of a condition similar to Korean Hwabyung in China, we searched for the existence of concept and pattern that were parallel or similar to those of Hwabyung in TCM text-books and diagnostic guidelines. We searched and analyzed clinical studies of TCM treatment for depression syndrome similar to Hwabyung from CNKI using terms 'depression' and 'qi stagnation transforming into fire'. Using extracted data, characteristics of clinical research, herbal medicine, and acupuncture treatment used in the clinical research and their effects were systematically reviewed. Results: Symptoms of 'qi stagnation transforming into fire' were most similar to those of Hwabyung. Nine articles were selected from a total 258 articles. Most of them used DSM-IV or CCMD-3 for depression diagnosis. They applied 'diagnostic and efficacy guidelines for TCM diseases and syndromes' for pattern diagnosis of 'qi stagnation transforming into fire'. Danzhixiaoyao-san and Jiaweixiaoyao-san were found to be effective when they were used alone or in combination with antidepressants. Acupuncture treatment also showed remarkable effect on LR3, HT7, LI4, PC6, GV20 when it was used alone or in combination with antidepressants. However, careful interpretation is required because a small number of studies are included.Conclusions: 'Qi stagnation transforming into fire' seemed to have symptoms similar to Hwabyung. However, further research is needed to determine its diseases and pattern types compared to Hwabyung. According to included studies of 'depression with Qi stagnation transforming into fire', herbal medicine and acupuncture treatment tended to be effective in relieving depressive symptoms. However, more discussion is required for future application of herbal medicine and acupuncture for treating Hwabyung.
