Background: Cholestatic hepatitis is failure of bile to reach the duodenum with hepatocellular damage and no demonstable obstruction of the major bile ducts. The prognosis is usually good with recovery in less than 4 weeks after withdrawal of the offending drug. However, a prolonged course lasting over 3 months is possible and, in rare cases, progression to ductopenia with development of a vanishing bile duct syndrome occurs. A differential diagnosis with other causes of Chronic liver disease is needed. Materials and Methods: From January 1991 through January 2000, 14 patients diagnosed as cholestatic hepatitis by liver biopsy were included. The possible causative drug, clinical features, laboratory findings, and progression of cholestatic hepatitis were evaluated. The semiquantitative study of liver lesions was performed by two independent observers. Results: Causes of cholestatic hepatitis are 5 cases of oriental medicine, 3 cases of anti-tuberculosis medication, 1 case of ticlopidine and antibiotics and 4 cases of unknown causes. The clinical features of cholestatic hepatitis were jaundice, itching, urine color change, and general weakness. During 6 to 30 months, LFT of 5 patients showed prolonged elevation. Elevated total cholesterol ${\geq}$250 mg/dL in 6 patients, pheripheral blood eosinophilia in 5 patients, auto-antibody positive in 6 patients were observed respectively. The biopsies showed intralobular bilirubinostasis with a mixed portal inflammatory infiltration. Conclusion: In cholestatic hepatitis, durations of abnormal LFT are variable regardless of causative drugs. If cholestatic hepatitis progresses toward chronic course, viral hepatitis, primary biliary cirrhosis, and autoimmune hepatitis should be differentially diagnosed and sequential liver biopsies are needed.

A Katsuobushi smoking machine was developed and evaluated to determine its benzo(a)pyrene reducing effect. The machine was equipped with two heaters for smoking and chamber heating. The smoke-generating system was equipped with a cadmium sulfide (CdS) smoke sensor, an on/off controller, and a rotating feeder with a smoke inlet. Raw bonito was steamed and then smoked under three smoke levels. After smoking at $45^{\circ}C$ for 108 h, the benzo(a)pyrene concentrations were 5.87, 7.83, and $11.41{\mu}g/kg$ at the low, middle, and high smoke levels, respectively. The benzo(a)pyrene concentrations after low-level smoking at 45, 65, and $85^{\circ}C$ for 108 h were 5.87, 4.82, and $3.27{\mu}g/kg$, respectively. Accordingly, the optimal conditions for benzo(a)pyrene reduction were a lower smoke level and higher smoking temperature. These optimal smoking conditions can be implemented with the newly developed machine, but is not possible using a conventional Katsuobushi smoking machine.

In this study, a temperature distribution sensing method using optical fiber was applied to a large-scale levee experiment, and the applicability of wide-area levee or embankment monitoring technology to observe the changes inside the levee was reviewed. The optical fiber was buried in a large-scale levee, and the temporal and spatial temperature changes were measured according to the water level changes in the reservoir. As the water level of the reservoir increased, the temperature of the embankment slope decreased, and as the infiltration progressed, a change in the spatial location of the temperature change was detected. The temperature change due to embankment infiltration varied depending on the time of the infiltration progress, and the change assumed to be the seepage line could be observed. This study has demonstrated that information about temperature changes inside the levee can be interpreted as the information on the locations that are judged to be relatively vulnerable, investigating the changes in the condition inside the levee.

We evaluated the clinical and laboratory characteristics of five children with Kawasaki disease who had showed arthritis after responding to intravenous immunoglobulin(IVIG) treatment. Age distribution was between 13 months and six years of age(mean $3.2{\pm}1.6$ years). There were two males and three females. Arthritis occurred when acute symptoms were subsiding, with the average onset on day $5.8{\pm}1.8$ after final IVIG treatment. Arthritis was pauciarticular in three, and polyarticular in two. Regarding laboratory findings, one child was positive in rhematoid factor and changed to negative after two months. Three patients were examined for HLA B27 and all showed negative results. High dose aspirin(two cases), anti-inflammatory drug(ibprofen, three cases), and corticosteroids(methyprednisolon pulse therapy, one case) were used for this type of arthritis. Symptoms and signs of arthritis in all patients were improved by these therapies. There was no relapse or complications within six months. Arthritis after responding to IVIG therapy was rarely observed in children with Kawasaki disease. This type of arthritis responded well to anti-inflammatory drugs including corticosteroids, and showed no relapses.

Effects of the steaming conditions on textural and sensory quality of rice cakes were investigated with respect to storage period. All steaming methods except microwave oven cooking were not remarkably decreased in moisture content during storage. Degree of gelatinization was shown much higher in the both of rice cakes prepared by the rice-cake steamer and steaming pot than those of microwave oven cooking sample. Effect of the different steaming conditions on the rice cake quality resulted that the sensory profiles (consistency, moistness and cohesiveness) were apparently improved in the cakes prepared with rice-cake steamer and steaming pot cooking than microwave oven cooking. The highest overall quality was shown in the samples cooked by rice-cake steamer. The rice cakes prepared by microwave oven showed the highest hardness and chewiness in the textural profiles, whereas the rice cakes prepared by the rice-cake steamer and the steaming pot showed the high gumminess.

The biomechanical prognosis of conventional removable partial denture is questionable in case of patient with few remaining teeth or periodontally compromised teeth. In this case, hybrid telescopic double crown RPD may be a successful treatment alternative. Hybrid telescopic double crown RPD has following advantages over conventional RPD: secondary splinting effect between abutments, more vertical stress direction and more convenient in repairing the denture after extraction of abutment tooth. In this clinical case, patient had deep overbite in anteriors and partially edentulous. The maxilla was restored with hybrid telescopic double crown RPD and the mandible was restored with implants and fixed prostheses. Long-term follow-up and supportive periodontal treatment were performed, and satisfactory results were achieved in terms of function and aesthetics.

Abnormal climate or weather is more frequently reported nowadays due to the global climate change. Especially, extremely low temperature in winter season may cause bad thermal discomfort of passengers. In this study, the effect of car heating modes on cabin temperature change and distribution was studied by using a real-scale environmental chamber for passenger cabin. It was found that the cabin temperature rose quickly at the initial stage of heating system operation, but it stopped increasing after certain point. And, temperature was higher when the height from the floor was higher. Based on the obtained result, the way to minimize the decrease of passengers' thermal comfort was suggested.

This is an experimental study that aimed to find out a possible relationships between the noise of the ship and the intelligent quotient, and the creativity of the crew member during June 5, to August 24, 1975. The experiment was carried out on the university training ship, the Oh-Bae-San Ho(1,126 tons), and the Kwan-Ak-San Ho (243 tons) and the training ship Baek-Kyung Ho (380 tons) of Je-ju College, where the total number of 144 students engaged on their tasks of practical exercise. And the following results were obtained : The decreases of I.Q. was evident as compared to the score obtained at the class room; soon after the embarking of the ship, the students on the deck decreased the score by $7\%$ of what they obtained at the class room while the students in the engine room decreased by $13\%$. The I.Q. was regaining the normal state after three days of embarking seemingly showing the fact that the students became adapted to the noise of the ship, but no remarkable improvement was visible during the period of 3 days to 35 days on the ship. One of the remarkable fact that had not been expected was that the problems for audio discernment was much easily solved in the midst of noise that made oral communication impossible (102 dB) than in the place of noise where conversation was possible(67 dB).
