Stellate ganglion block which usually practiced in pain clinics may combined with hemodynamic changes because it blocks sympathetic nerve chains. We measured the hemodynamic changes with NCCOM3-$R7^{(R)}$ (BOMED, U.S.A.) which applicated bioimpedance method in twenty-two patients. Mean arterial pressure, heart rate, cardiac output, ejection fraction and left ventricle end diastolic volume (LEDV) were measured before stellate ganglion block (control), 1, 3, 5, 10 and 20 minutes after stellate ganglion block with 8 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine. The results were as follows: Mean arterial pressure decreased significantly (p<0.05) in 10, 20 minutes after stellate ganglion block comparing to control, but not clinically significant. Heart rate, cardiac output, ejection fraction and LVEDV showed no significant change compared to control value. These results showed that stellate ganglion block is a safe technique without significant hemodynamic changes.

This paper studied production characteristics of organic farming products and analyzed management income and production cost of organic farming(rice). In order to analyze these points actually, this study was focused on pruduction activities of a producers' organization, Pulmoo Cooperatives in Hong-Dong Myun, Hong-Seong Region, Chung Nam Province. So the following results were obtained : In 1994, output level and an income rate of rice per unit area(10a) which was produced in organic farming method(O.F.M) was higher than those of general farming method(G.F.M) as about 5%, 7.4%. And management income size of the former was 1.8 times as large as that of the latter. But rice production cost of O.F.M was 1.93 times as much as that of G.F.M, particularily in labor cost and farming equipment cost, light and heat expenses, many other material costs. For the progress of organic farming O.F.M and equipmets should be developed much more, for example, the technics of prevetion against damages by blight and harmful insects and improvement of varieties, natural pesticides, agricultual application of microorganisim, construction of compost heat factory, etc. Since these technics and establishments have taken on the public goods, the development of those should be supported by government.

This paper aims to provide a critical assesment of Conservatives's and new Labour's social assistance reforms in the U.K. and their differential impacts on low income groups. During the period of 18 years in power, the Conservative governments enforced benefit recipients being capable of work to be out of benefits and to get into work. They employed not only 'carrots' to encourage beneficiaries being capable of work to have full-time work, but also 'sticks' to discourage them to depend on benefits. The reforms under the Conservative governments were closer to the workfare model. The new Labour government has continued to emphasize work regarding social security reform. It has raised 'from welfare to work' as the main reform objective. However, it has not necessarily focused on 'carrots and sticks' in order to get beneficiaries into work. Instead, the new Labour government has put its priority regarding social assistance reform on human capital development in order to develop the capability of beneficiaries for work. Britain under the new Labour government seems to be moving from workfare to activation model. These differentials between the Conservative governments and the new Labour government regarding social assistance reforms bring about the different policy outcomes. Under the Conservative government, social assistance programmes were prone to strengthen the state's control over benefit recipients and to increase stigma to them. Punitive, demeaning, stigmatising programmes of work and unending job search activities harm the bases of self-respect. On the contrary, the activation programmes under the new Labour government has contributed positively to both socially significant participation and autonomy of beneficiaries.

The present study was investigated the oviposition characteristics of Protaetia brevitarsis seulensis with a focus on winter larvae to improve the utilization of insect resources. The average oviposition tendency and average cumulative number of eggs laid during a 7-week period were measured in adults emerging from larvae that had hibernated for 4 months in five farmhouses. The study covered five zones: Gimje, Jangsu, Wanju, Iksan and Yeoju. The average oviposition tendency over a 7-week period showed increased egg laying between 2 to 3 weeks and 5 to 6 weeks. Overall, it was found that the average cumulative number of eggs laid during the 7-week period was initially low and increased proportionally with time. Our results suggest that using adults that have emerged from hibernated larvae is effective in increasing the oviposition rate and utilization of the insect.

The cutaneous xanthophore differentiation from larvae to adult in Bombina orientalis-the Korean fire bellied toad-is studied with light and electron microscopes. General structure of adult xanthophore which is composed of many pterinosomes and a small quantity of carotenoid vesicles is forming chromatophore complex with other dermal pigment cells. And the cytoplasmic process of xanthophore is distributed just beneath the basement membrane. The first differentiated xanthophore is originated from both rER rich cells and Golgi complex rich cells before and after the feeding larval stage. Formation of the pigment granule is proceeded gradually along the sequental metamorphic stages. After the metamorphosis, rapid multiplication of pterinosome is observed and enlargement of carotenoid vesicle is appeared after hybernation. These pigment granules are seen several structures by the differentiated level.

In order to understand the provision of social welfare in Korea, this study puts forward a method to measure and tracks the welfare mix, and applies the method to Korea. This is the goal of this study, which is in three parts. First, I critically review the concept of welfare pluralism and develop the welfare mix model, Second, I present a methodology and technique for measuring and systematically comparing the components of the welfare mix. Third, I examine the roles of five welfare providers including state, market, non-profit organization, enterprise and family in the welfare mix of Korea. This study argues that the welfare mix in Korea has some characteristics of 'residual state, expanded market, negligible voluntary sector, and protective family'. The state in Korea has played a relatively little role in the provision of social welfare, enforcing most Koreans being with a meagre social protection. Thus, most of the 'left' needs for social welfare has to be met in the private sector composed of market and enterprises. In addition, in a situation that self/mutual help through family or community is encouraged, the family has played an important role in the welfare mix. But the role of voluntary sector in the welfare mix has remained negligible. Consequently, the characteristics of the welfare mix in Korea can be best described by a welfare society rather than a welfare state.

본 연구는 옴개구리(Rana rugosa)의 생식주기를 파악하고 이들 난자들의 체외 성숙조건을 구하기 위하여 수행하였다 개구리들의 gonadosomatic index(G51)는 4월에서 8월사이에는 비교적 낮았고 9월에서 이듬해 3월까지는 높았다 여포들의 성장은 주로 6월에서 9월 사이에 이루어지는데 난소내에서도 여포들의 성장 속도는 일부 다른 것으로 나타났다. 야외 관찰에서 이 개구리들은 서식지의 온도에 따라 4월에서 7월 사이에 산란을 한다는 것과 10월에서 이듬해 3월까지 동면을 한다는 것을 말았다. 산란기에 취한 여포 난자들은 생체외 배양에서 progesterone에 성숙반응(germinal vesicle breakdown(GVBD))을 일으키지 않았다. 그러나 protein klnase C(PKC)의 촉진제인 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate(TPA) 혹은 Na+/K+ ATPase의 저해제인 ouabain을 progesterone과 동시에 처리했을 때에는 성숙반응을 일으켰다(각각 86%와 80%). TPA 로 핵붕괴를 일으킨 난자의 세포질을 미성숙 난자에 주입하면 미성숙 난자의 핵붕괴를 유도하였으며 성숙된 다른 종의 난자들의 세포질도 이와 같은 효과를 나타내었다. TPA의 성숙유도 효과는 5분의 노출 기간으로도 충분하였으며 PKC의 저해제인 H-7을 처리하면 그 효과가 없어졌다 이러한 결과들은 옴개구리의 난자는 호르몬에 성숙반응을 일으킨지 않으나 PKC 활성화 이후 단계는 정상이라는 것을 의미한다.

Biological clocks are the basis of temporal control of metabolism and behavior. These clocks are characterized by autonomous free-running oscillation and temperature compensation and are found in animals, plants, and microorganisms. To date, various biological clocks have been reported. These include clocks governing hibernation, sleep/wake, heartbeat, and courtship song. These clocks can be differentiated by the period of rhythms, for example, infradian rhythms (> 24-hr period), circadian rhythms (24-hr period), and ultradian rhythms (< 24-hr period). In yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), at least five different autonomous oscillations have been reported; (1) glycolytic oscillations (T = 1~30 min), (2) cell cycle-dependent oscillations (T = 2~16 hr), (3) ultradian metabolic oscillations (T = 15~50 min), (4) yeast colony oscillations (T = a few hours), and (5) circadian oscillations (T = 24 hr). In this review, we discuss studies on oscillators, pacemakers, and synchronizers, in addition to the application of biological clocks, to demonstrate the nature of autonomous oscillations, especially ultradian metabolic oscillations of S. cerevisiae.
