In this study, we performed a Random Walker analysis to predict the Major Movement Paths of otters. The scope of the research was a simulation analysis with a radius of 7.5 km set as the final range centered on the Ansim-wetland in Daegu City, and a field survey was used to verify the model. The number of virtual otters was set to 1,000, the number of moving steps was set to 1,000 steps per grid, and simulations were performed on a total of 841 grids. As a result of the analysis, an average of 147.6 objects arrived at the boundary point under the condition of an interval of 50 m. As a result of the simulation verification, 8 points (13.1%) were found in the area where the movement probability was very high, and 9 points (14.8%) were found in the area where the movement probability was high. On the other hand, in areas with low movement paths probabilities, there were 8 points (13.1%) in low areas and 4 points (6.6%) in very low areas. Simulation verification results In areas with high otter values, the actual otter format probability was particularly high. In addition, as a result of investigating the correlation with the otter appearance point according to the unit area of the evaluation star of the movement probability, it seems that 6.8 traces were found per unit area in the area where the movement probability is the highest. In areas where the probability of movement is low, analysis was performed at 0.1 points. On the side where otters use the major movement paths of the river area, the normal level was exceeded, and as a result, in the area, 23 (63.9%), many form traces were found, along the major movement paths of the simulation. It turned out that the actual otter inhabits. The EN-Simulator analysis can predict how spatial properties affect the likelihood of major movement paths selection, and the analytical values are used to utilize additional habitats within the major movement paths. It is judged that it can be used as basic data such as to grasp the danger area of road kill in advance and prevent it.

유류유출사고와 같이 하천 수표면의 흐름에 따라 이동 확산하는 부유성 오염물질의 혼합해석을 위해 많은 연구자들은 입자추적모형을 사용한 혼합모의를 수행해왔다. 입자추적모형에서 오염물질의 혼합은 평균 유속 분포에 의한 결정론적인 이동과 난류유동에 의한 무작위적인 혼합으로 나타내며, 난류혼합에 의한 수평확산은 난류확산계수로 조절한다. 따라서 표면흐름에 의한 난류확산계수의 산정을 위해 많은 연구자들은 부유성 입자를 이용한 실내실험을 수행하여 수평확산계수를 산정했고(Engelund, 1969; Cederwall, 1971), 최근에는 GPS의 발전으로 인해 해양영역에서 GPS를 장착한 표면부자를 활용한 확산실험을 통해 수평확산계수를 산정한 바 있다(Kjellson and $D{\ddot{o}}{\ddot{o}}s$, 2012; Alpers 등, 2013). 하천수질오염사고의 약 43.5%가 유류유출에 의한 것이며(환경부, 2013), 이에 따라 표면흐름에 의한 오염물질 혼합해석이 필요하나, 하천에서 수평확산계수 산정을 위한 현장실험연구는 부족한 상황이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 낙동강 본류에서 GPS부자를 이용한 입자추적실험을 수행하여 표면흐름에 의한 확산계수를 산정했다. GPS부자를 이용한 입자추적실험은 낙동강의 강정고령보 하류와 구미보 하류의 각각 세 지점에서 수행되었다. GPS부자는 바람에 의한 교란을 최소화하기 위해 지름 10 cm의 구형으로 제작하였으며 시범테스트를 통해 입자의 주 궤적 변화가 크지 않은 지점에 GPS부자를 투입했다. GPS부자는 오염물질의 사고유출을 가정하여 한 지점에 투입했고 GPS부자 사이의 간섭을 최소화하기 위해 25 ~ 35개의 GPS부자를 이용했다. 표면흐름에 의해 이동하는 부자의 위치는 GPS에 시계열로 저장됐고 ADCP를 이용하여 실험당시의 수리량을 측정했다. 입자위치의 시계열자료로부터 GPS부자의 확산범위의 시간변화를 계산했고 단순 모멘트법을 이용하여 종, 횡 방향 확산계수를 계산했다. 그 결과, 종 방향 확산계수는 $0.003{\sim}0.041m^2/s$로 계산되었고 횡 방향 확산 계수는 $0.001{\sim}0.012m^2/s$로 계산되어, 흐름방향의 유속성분에 의한 확산이 지배적인 것으로 나타났다. 지류 합류부에서는 이송이 지배적인 혼합이 발생되었고(Pe>1) Pe의 증가에 따라 수평확산계수가 감소되었다. 25~35개 GPS부자 궤적의 앙상블 평균으로부터 계산한 Integral time scale은 모멘트법으로부터 계산한 종, 횡 방향 확산계수와 비례하는 것으로 나타나, Taylor(1921)의 이론과 일치했다. 또한 실험수로에서 수행된 기존연구결과와 비교한 결과, 하폭 대 수심비, 마찰항의 증가에 따라 수평확산계수가 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다.

Purpose: We investigated the statistical methods to compose the functional brain map of human working memory and the principal factors that have an effect on the methods for localization. Materials and Methods: Repeated PET scans with successive four tasks, which consist of one control and three different activation tasks, were performed on six right-handed normal volunteers for 2 minutes after bolus injections of 925 MBq $H_2^{15}O$ at the intervals of 30 minutes. Image data were analyzed using SPM96 (Statistical Parametric Mapping) implemented with Matlab (Mathworks Inc., U.S.A.). Images from the same subject were spatially registered and were normalized using linear and nonlinear transformation methods. Significant difference between control and each activation state was estimated at every voxel based on the general linear model. Differences of global counts were removed using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) with global activity as covariate. Using the mean and variance for each condition which was adjusted using ANCOVA, t-statistics was performed on every voxel To interpret the results more easily, t-values were transformed to the standard Gaussian distribution (Z-score). Results: All the subjects carried out the activation and control tests successfully. Average rate of correct answers was 95%. The numbers of activated blobs were 4 for verbal memory I, 9 for verbal memory II, 9 for visual memory, and 6 for conjunctive activation of these three tasks. The verbal working memory activates predominantly left-sided structures, and the visual memory activates the right hemisphere. Conclusion: We conclude that rCBF PET imaging and statistical parametric mapping method were useful in the localization of the brain regions for verbal and visual working memory.

The purpose of study was to compare the effectiveness of sling exercise on the muscle strength and range of motion in female patients who received a total knee replacement. The participants were allocated randomly into 2 groups: sling exercise group (n=15) and control group (n=15). The subjects were evaluated using the Biodex system for the muscle strength test and a goniometer for the range of motion test. The data was analyzed using a paired t-test and independent t-test to determine the statistical significance. As a result, the sling exercise group before and after intervention showed a statistical significance difference in the flexion angle, quadriceps femoris, and hamstring muscle strength. The control group before and after the intervention revealed a statistically significant increase in the flexion & extension angle, quadriceps femoris, and hamstring muscle strength. Muscle strength test and flexion range of motion test in the sling exercise group showed statistical significance differences compared to the control group (p<.05). Therefore, the sling exercise group has a positive influence on the muscle strength and ROM in patients with a total knee replacement.

Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) is a collective term embrassing a number of clinical problems that involve the masticatory musculature, the Temporomandibular joint and associated structures, or both. The prevalence of signs and symptoms associated with TMD can be best appreciated by examining epidemiologic studies. But domestic epidemiologic studies about sex, history, chief complaint, diagnosis were not sufficient comparing with foreign countries. The results obtained as follow. 1. The number of visiting patients were 6500 and mean age was 34.06 year (Male's mean age was 33.15, Female's 34.62). In the age of patients, there was no significant difference between sex. 2. There are most patients who were referred by dentist (80.07%). Most diagnostic group was arthrogenous TMD group and followed by myogenous TMD, soft tissue disease. 3. There was strong interaction between diagnostic groups and chief complaint. 4. There was little pain difference between right and left sides. Male mainly had pain onset under 6 month, but female had pain onset more than 6 month. 5. The number of patients who had joint sound history were 3445 (53.15%). There was no significant difference of pain onset between sex. Clicking sound was most among joint sounds which happened to patients. 6. In analyzing the parafunctional habit, male mainly had bruxism, but female had clenching habit.

BACKGROUND: Citrus is usually propagated by grafting onto a rootstock. In Korea, As trifoliate orange (Poncirus trifoliata) has dwarf and strong cold hardness, it is widely used as the rootstock of satsuma mandarin. Because 'Shiranuhi' ((Citrus unshiu ${\times}$ C. sinensis) ${\times}$ C. reticulata), a kind of citrus, also, generally is grafted onto a trifoliate orange, most of farmer has been recognized that 'Shiranuhi' root is naturally trifoliate orange. Meanwhile, reduction of flowering in 'Shiranuhi' orchard has been issued among the farmers and researchers over past few years and they guessed it was occurred by severe prune, oversupply of fertilization, overfruiting and temperature of growth period. However, a few researchers strongly assumed that it would be caused by scion rooting of 'Shiranuhi'. So, this study was carried out to identify the existence of scion rooting in 'Shiranuhi' tree in Korea. METHODS AND RESULTS: To identify the existence of scion rooting in 'Shiranuhi' tree, we randomly selected six 'Shiranuhi'orchards and we surveyed three to four trees, which flowering was not enough, from six 'Shiranuhi' orchards respectively. We took the root samples of 'Shiranuhi' mandarin, and then separated the two group which were non-scion rooting (Trifoliate orange), and scion rooting ('Shiranuhi' mandarin). To identity the scion rooting, we used primer set of three types which were a F2/R15, F4/R15 and F5/R15 primer set. As a result, when we conducted the DNA analysis, fourteen tree in less bloomed twenty tree was proved as tree with the scion rooting of 'Shiranuhi' mandarin. CONCLUSION(S): Scion roots of 'Shiranuhi'mandarin were usually observed in a deeply planted tree, and xylem of 'Shiranuhi' root indicated more white color than a case of trifoliata orange. 'Shiranuhi' tree by scion rooting was more vigorous but less flowering than trees grafted onto trifoliata orange. When we used F2/R15, F4/R15 and F5/R15 primer set for discriminance of 'Shiranuhi'mandarin root and trifoliate root, we identified the existence of scion rooting in 'Shiranuhi', From our results, it is suggested that the influence of scion root should be reviewed in 'Shiranuhi'orchards.
