  • 본 연구는 방사광을 이용하여 새로운 골다공증 진단 평가법을 구축하고자 하였다. 방사광 기반 흰 쥐 넙다리뼈의 해부학적 구조와 내부미세구조를 시각화하였다. 그 후, 시각화에 기초하여 방사광에서 얻은 이미지를 통해 정상과 골다공증 모델에 대해 정량적인 분석을 수행하였다. 또한, 본 연구를 통해 기존 전임상단계의 미세단층촬영 (Micro-CT) 방법으로는 볼 수 없었던 내부미세구조 분석이 가능하다는 것을 증명하였다. 따라서, 방사광 기반 비파괴적인 방법으로 기존 골다공증 진단의 한계점을 보완하여 객관적인 분석이 가능하게 하여 신뢰도가 높은 진단 방법을 제시하고자 한다.

  • The effect of dietary clay mineral on meat quality in M. longissimus of Hanwoo (Korean cattle) bull beef during refrigerated storage (4$^{\circ}C$) was investigated. Experimental groups were divided into control (basal diet) and CT-1.25% (basal diet + 1.25% clay mineral) groups. There was no significant differences in proximate and fatty acid compositions between control and CT-1.25% groups. The pH of control group was significantly (p<0.05) changed during storage, but CT-1.25% group was little affected by storage time. CIE a* (redness), chroma (C*) values and R630-R580 were significantly (p<0.05) decreased during storage for both groups. In particular, those values decreased more rapidly in the control group. The rate of metmyoglobin accumulation during storage increased more rapidly in the control group. Therefore, discoloration in the control group was more accelerated compared to the CT-1.25% group. TBARS (thiobarbituric acid reactive substances) which represents lipid rancidity were significantly (p<0.05) lower in CT-l.25% group than in the control. Water-holding capacity (WHC) was significantly (p<0.05) increased during storage for both groups, and CT-1.25% group had significantly (p<0.05) higher WHC than control group. Consequently, feeding of clay mineral (1.25%) was effective in increasing meat color stability and WHC, and retarding lipid oxidation than did control group.

  • "소기도"라 일컬어지는 해부학적 부위는 말단부 막성 세기관지와 호흡성 세기관지로 구성된 직경 3 mm 이하의 기도부위이다. 방사선학적으로는 고해상 전산화단층촬영(CT)에서 흉막직하의 직경 약 1.0 cm으로 이루어진 2차 소엽내의 중심부에 위치하게 된다. 그러므로 이 부위의 질환때에는 중심소엽성 세기관지내의 가득찬 물질로 인해 나타나는 중심소엽성 결절들과 선상음영들이 보인다. 이외의 소견으로는 중심소엽성 폐기종, 모자이크 모양의 폐음영, 분절하 무기폐등이 있고, 호기시 CT 촬영에서 나타나는 공기포획이 있다. 최근에는 다검출기형식의 CT (multidetector CT)의 발전으로 인하여 이차원 재구성 (2 dimension reformat) 관상면, 시상면 CT 스캔을 매우 명확하고 빨리 얻을 수 있고, 기관지에 대한 삼차원 볼륨 영상 (3 dimentional volume rendering image) 등을 얻어서 가시적인 효과를 높이고 진단의 정확성에 보다 더 접근하게 되었다. 소기도를 침범하는 질환은 일차적인 것과 이차적인 것이 있는데, 병리조직학적으로는 원인별로 흡연으로 인한 소기도 질환, 세포성 세기관지염, 수축성 세기관지염, 증식성 세기관지염등으로 구분하며 여기에는 이와 같은 병리질환을 일으키는 다양한 원인들이 포함된다. 이외에도 드문 질환으로 미만성 범세기관지염, 광물질에 의한 소기도 질환등이 있다.

  • The optical current transformer was developed for 170 kV GIS using optical fiber. The sensor optimized on the optical CT was wound 3 turns and twisted 4 times per a turn at the pipe with a diameter of 130 m. To optimize the optical CT, the output signal was measured according to the setting angle of polarizer and analyzer, The asymmetry and distortion of the output signals were improved when the parallel polarized light was incident to the fiber sensor and under the angle of analyzer was $45^{o}$. The measurement error for the linearity was only $\pm{0.42}\;\%$ to 1,000 A in the case of reflection type.

  • Alzheimer's disease(AD) is a geriatric dementia that is widespread in old age. In the near future AD will be the biggest problem in public health service. It has been widely believed that $A{\beta}$ peptide devided from APP causes apoptotic neurotoxicity in brain. However, recent evidence suggests that n99 may be an important factor causing neurotoxicity in AD. Mouse PC12 cells expressed with n99 exhibited remarkable apoptotic cell damage. We invesgated the protective effects of Gagamgobonhwan water extract(GKG). Findings from our experiments have shown that GKG inhibits the activities of CT99, which has neurotoxicities and apoptotic activities in cell line. In addition, treatment of GKG($75{\mu}g/ml$ 24 hours) partially prevented CT99-induced cytotoxicity in PC12 cells. As the result of this study, in GKG group the apoptosis in the nervous system was inhibited, the repair against the degerneration of PC12 cells by CT99 expression is promoted. Taken together, GKG exhibited inhibition of CT99-induced apoptotic cell death. GKG may be beneficial for the treatment of AD.

  • Chronotype (CT) is defined as an inter-individual difference in sleep-wake cycles and daily activities. Previous studies have suggested that this individual difference can influence our biological and psychological functioning. Literature regarding the psychometric properties and validity of CT measures are reviewed. We provide an overview of biological indicators (sleep-wake cycle, body temperature, cortisol, and melatonin) that are used for distinguishing two chronotypes: morningness (MT) and eveningness (ET). We also review the differences between CT in relation to personality traits and the occurrence of psychopathology. In addition, the methodological limitations of studies on CT are discussed. Finally, future research directions in terms of CT are proposed.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the porosity of resin modified glass ionomer (RMGI) by different mixing methods. Materials and Methods: Five specimens were prepared for each groups according to capsules and mixing methods. Two RMGI capsule and two mixing machines were used for this study. One resin-modified glass ionomer cement is Fuji II LC (F2LC) and the other is Photac Fil Quick Aplicap (PFQ). For Mixing of RMGI capsule, Rotomix using rotating motion and CM-II using shaking motion were used. After measuring height, radius and mass of specimens, Density was calculated. And porosity was measured using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). All data were statistically analyzed using T-test, two-way ANOVA to compare between groups at 95% significance level to evaluate the affect of capsule and mixing method on the porosity. Results: The porosity was observed in all specimens generally. And there is significant differece between porosities according to RMGI capsule and Mixing method. The porosity of PFQ was lower than that of F2LC and the porosity of Rotomix was lower than that of CM-II. Conclusion: There was a difference of porosity according to kind of capsules and mixing methods. When using same capsule, less porosity was observed on PFQ than F2LC. When using same mixing mehod, less porosity was observed on Rotomix than CM-II. Using mixing machine of same coporation as that of RMGI capsule did not lead to lower porosity. Therefore, Selecting optimal mixing machine is important.

  • 본 논문은 패러데이 효과(Faraday Effect)에 의한 초고압 전력설비에서의 광CT 특성에 대한 기초 연구를 기술하였다. 광원은 LD(Laser Diode : 830[nm])를 사용하고, 수신부는 PIN-Photodiode론 사용하였다. 광의 전송로는 파이버 내에서 편광상태론 유지할 수 있는 싱글모드 광파이버를 사용하였고, 광파이버의 양끝은 편광자와 검광자를 두어 빛의 광학적인 편파면을 이용한 전류측정이 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다. 측정 결과에서는 기존 문헌상의 결과와 동일한 형태의 출력을 얻을 수 있었고 나아가서는 초고압전력설비인 가스절연개폐장치 (GIS: Gas Insulated Switchgear)에 대한 적용도 가능하게 했다.

  • Purpose Patients with bladder cancer may show hematuria after radical cystectomy with ileal neobladder formation, causing anxiety regarding tumor recurrence. Here, we aim to show that the nutcracker syndrome (NCS) can be a cause of hematuria post-operation, and is a common, rather than a rare syndrome. Materials and Methods A retrospective review of contrast-enhanced abdominopelvic CT (CE-APCT) and urine analysis (UA) findings of 255 patients with bladder cancer who underwent radical cystectomy and ileal neobladder formation between 2011 and 2016 was performed. In the CE-APCT review, the left renal vein flow patterns were evaluated to determine the presence of NCS findings. In the UA review, patients were classified according to the percentage of UA tests with positive hematuria among the total number of UA tests. Results CT findings of NCS were present in 31.9% of the 135 patients. In the positive hematuria group, there were 26% more patients with NCS findings than those without. Conclusion NCS findings are prevalent even for bladder cancer patients after surgery, and there is a strong correlation between NCS findings and hematuria. Furthermore, the prevalence of NCS findings is much higher than urinary tract recurrence after the surgery.
