Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of three functional performance tests and one-legged hop test and to establish the reference data of the three functional performance tests of the active young Korean men. Materials and methods: We performed five tests on 40 normal subjects such as one-legged hop test (single hop, triple hop) and the three functional performance tests (carioca test, co-contraction test, shuttle run test). The mean age was 28.4 years. The mean score of Tegner activity scale was 6.2 and Lysholm score 98.2 Mean value and standard deviation were obtained. The correlation of age, height and weight with the results, the relationship between FPT and one-legged hop test and the mean difference between dominant and non-dominant limbs were statistically calculated. Results: All data obtained were normally distributed and there were no significant relationship between age, height and weight. The paired t-test of one legged hop test showed no statistical significance between dominant and non-dominant limbs. The results of one legged hop test had strong relationship with functional performance test. Conclusion; The three functional performance tests can be a useful functional test in ACL-insufficient athletes. Our results can be used as normal reference data of the normal active Korean men.

Citrullinemia type 2 (citrin deficiency) is an autosomal recessive inborn error metabolism, caused by the SLC25A13 gene mutation. Citrin deficiency is associated with two clinical phenotype; neonatal-onset type II citrullinemia (CTLN2), also known as neonatal intraphepatic cholestasis caused by citrin deficiency (NICCD) and adult-onset CTLN2. Clinical manifestations of NICCD include poor growth, intrahepatic cholestasis, liver dysfunction and increased plasma citrulline, methionine, threonine, arginine. The molecular diagnosis could be confirmed by SLC25A13 gene mutation analysis. A 3-month-old male infant with persistent jaundice was referred for evaluation. Newborn screening was normal at birth. Mild elevation of serum ammonia and AST/ALT were observed. Plasma amino acid analysis showed significantly elevated citrulline, methionine, threonine. DNA sequence analysis of the SLC25A13 gene revealed two compound heterozygous mutations, c.[852_855del]($p.Met285Profs^*2$) and [1180+1G>A]. We suggest that NICCD should be considered as one of the cause of in infants with cholestatic jaundice, although the newborn screening was normal.

In this paper we show the LCD simulator for defect inspection using image processing algorithm and neural network. The defect inspection algorithm of the LCD consists of preprocessing, feature extraction and defect classification. Preprocess removes noise from LCD image, using morphology operator and neural network is used for the defect classification. Sample images with scratch, pinhole, and spot from real LCD color filter image are used. From some experiments results, the proposed algorithms show that defect detected and classified in the ratio of 92.3% and 94.5 respectively. Accordingly, in this paper, a possibility of practical implementation of the LCD defect inspection system is finally suggested.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess the benefits of routine pre-endoscopy coagulation screening tests and platelet counts in Korean children. Methods: Between March 2004 and December 2009, children who underwent gastrointestinal endoscopy for the evaluation of various gastrointestinal symptoms were included. All of the subjects included in the study also underwent routine coagulation screening and platelet count determinations prior to endoscopy and biopsy. The clinical records and laboratory tests were retrospectively reviewed in all patients. Results: One hundred sixty-two of 1,476 (11%) patients who underwent endoscopy had abnormal results on pre-screening coagulation tests. Fourteen patients underwent coagulation factor assays due to abnormal clotting results in consecutive tests or due to clinical evidence of a bleeding tendency. Seven patients were diagnosed with factor XII deficiency, one patient was diagnosed with von Willebrand disease, one patient had von Willebrand disease and factor XII deficiency, and one patient was presumed to have mild hemophilia. The remaining 4 patients had normal results with the factor assays. The results of platelet counts were normal with the exception of 1 patient. No patient had significant bleeding during the endoscopic procedures, despite abnormal pre-endoscopic coagulation tests. Conclusion: Routine coagulation screening tests and platelet counts revealed abnormal results in some patients. Most of the patients with abnormal clotting were shown to have a factor XII deficiency, which had no significant associated bleeding tendencies; the other patients were diagnosed with hemophilia or von Willebrand disease. Therefore, although abnormal pre-endoscopic coagulation is not always related to significant bleeding complications, pre-endoscopic coagulation screening may be useful in some children in predicting the risk of bleeding tendency during endoscopic procedures.

복잡한 생산시스템 속에서 빠른 속도로 제품을 생산하기 위해서 도입된 신형 고성 능 기계류의 경우에는 검사 작업자가 제품의 결점을 검출하기가 매우 어렵다. 검사작 업을 위해서 충분한 시간이 주어진다면 정확하게 처리할 수 있겠지만, 실제로는 많은 제약이 있다. 이러한 관점에서 검출오류의 결과에 대한 중요성은 증가되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 검사작업의 개인차에서 비롯하는 작업자의 결점검출방법에 관하여 살펴보고자 한다. 이를 위해서, 먼저 피실험자를 대상으로 두가지 작업방법, 즉 기능적 검사(functional search)를 하는 작업자와 지형적 검사(topographic search)를 하는 작업자로 나누어 실험을 하였다. 또한 이들이 검사작업을 하는 동안 일어나는 안구운동(eye movements)의 몇가지 요인을 측정하여 시각검사작업에 영향을 미치는 안구운동요인을 파악하고자 한다.

초기단계의 제품 검사방법은 단순히 제품이 제대로의 기능을 수행하는지 안하는지에 대해서만 검사하고 결정을 내릴 뿐이었다. 대부분의 검사란, 검사자에게 최종적으로 제품이 인수된 후에 제품의 상태여부를 한정적이고, 제한적으로만 판단하여 검사결과를 제공하여왔다. 현대의 제품특성이 구조적 복잡성의 증가, 제품불량 현상파악의 난이도 증가등으로 제품의 사용절차, 검사, 유지보수, 부품교환등이 점점 더 난해해지고, 검사자의 개인적인 숙련도도 증가하게 되어, 제품을 유지보수하는데 더 많은 비용과 시간을 필요로하게 되었다. 이러한 문제들의 해결방안의 하나로 제품의 자체에 스스로 검사할 수 있는 체계적인 시스템을 설치하게 되어 BIT(Built-In-Test)가 탄생하게 되었다. BIT는 현존하는 제품뿐만아니라, 생산될 제품의 설계단계에서도 많이 응용되어 제품의 RAM(Reliability, Availability, Maintainability)에 많은 기여를 해왔다. 이 PAPER는 지금까지 BIT가 주로 Military System에 적용되어온 것을 Commercial system으로의 변환을 위한 기초작업을 제시하고 여러 대안을 열거하였으며, BIT가 갖고 있는 문제점들을 파악하여, 향후 고도화 되가는 산업사회의 요구에 부응할 수 있는 토대를 마련코자 Survey하였다.

주기억 데이터베이스 시스템은 주기억장치에 데이터베이스 전체를 상주시킴으로써 빠른 성능을 보장하므로 실시간 데이터베이스 시스템에 적합하다. 그러나, 시스템에 장애가 발생했을 때는 주기억 데이터베이스와 내용 전체가 손실될 수 있다. 그러므로, 주기억 데이터베이스 시스템의 회복 작업은 매우 중요하다. 또한 빠른 회복을 해줄 수 있어야 실시간 확경에 적합할 것이다. 로그를 사용하는 주기억 데이터베이스 시스템에서 빠른 회복을 위해서 검사점 방법을 사용한다. 검사점을 사용하여 주기적으로 변경된 내용을 디스크로 옮김으로써 회복할 때 분석해야 할 로그의 양을 줄일 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 검사점 방법들 중 주기억 데이터베이스 환경에 가장 좋은 성능을 보이는 퍼지 검사점에 관한 방법들을 분석 및 보완하여 빠른 회복을 위한 새로운 기법을 제안하고 이를 FastDB 주기억 데이터베이스 시스템에 구현하였다. 구체적으로, FastDB를 로그를 사용하는 회복 방법으로 바꾸고, FastDB가 사용하는 메모리 영역을 n개의 파티션으로 나눈다. 그리고 파티션별 갱신 횟수에 따라 일정한 검사점 수행 간격을 유지하여 회복시 필요한 로그의 양을 효과적으로 줄일 수 있는 일정 간격 퍼지 검사점 기법을 구현하였다. 실험 결과에 의하면 일정 간격 퍼지 검사점 기법을 사용한 시스템이 기존 방법을 사용한 시스템보다 회복 성능에서 우수함을 보여준다.

Purpose: The Helicobacter pylori stool antigen (HpSA) enzyme immunoassay is a non-invasive test for the diagnosis and monitoring of H. pylori infection. But, there are few validation studies on the HpSA test after eradication in children. The aim of this study was to assess the diagnostic accuracy of HpSA enzyme immunoassay for the detection of H. pylori to confirm eradication in children. Methods: From January 2001 to October 2003, 164 tests were performed in 146 children aged 1 to 17.5 years (mean $9.3{\pm}4.3$ years). H. pylori infection was confirmed by endoscopy-based tests (rapid urease test, histology, and culture). All H. pylori infected children were treated with quadruple regimens (Omeprazole, amoxicillin, metronidazole and bismuth subcitrate for 7 days). Stool specimens were collected from all patients for the HpSA enzyme immunoassay (Primier platinum HpSA). The results of HpSA tests were interpreted as positive for $OD{\geq}0.160$, unresolved for $$0.140{\leq_-}OD$$<0.160, and negative for OD<0.140 at 450 nm on spectrophotometer. Results: 1) One hundred thirty-one HpSA tests were performed before treatment. The result of HpSA enzyme immunoassay showed three false positive cases and one false negative case. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of HpSA enzyme immunoassay before treatment were 96.4%, 97.1%, 90%, and 99%, respectively. 2) Thirty-three HpSA enzyme immunoassay were performed at least 4 weeks after eradication therapy. The results of HpSA enzyme immunoassay showed two false positive cases and one false negative case. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value after treatment were 88.9%, 91.7%, 80%, and 95.7%, respectively. Conclusion: Diagnostic accuracy of the HpSA enzyme immunoassay after eradication therapy was as high as that of the HpSA test before eradication therapy. The HpSA enzyme immunoassay was found to be a useful non-invasive method to confirm H. pylori eradication in children.
