기존의 라우터 기반의 패킷 스크리닝 방식은 ATM 네트워크 상에서는 패킷 수준의 스크리닝 기능의 적용을 위하여 SAR(Segmentation And Reassembly) 과정을 필요로 하기 때문에 고속의 셀 처리를 수행하는 ATM Switch의 셀 처리 속도를 저하시킨다는 문제점을 안고 있다. 본 논문에서는 셀 스크리닝 방식에 기반한 병렬 처리 구조의 ATM Firewall Switch를 제안한다. 제안된 Enhanced ATM Firewall Switch는 셀 단위로 분할된 패킷의 1, 2번 셀들에 대한 검사만을 통하여 스크리닝 기능을 수행하기 때문에 셀 단위의 스크리닝 수행이 가능하며, 정책 캐쉬의 도입을 통해 셀 스크리닝 수행속도를 향상하였다. 또한 독립적인 User Cells Filter 기능 블록의 설계를 통하여 병렬 처리 구조의 셀 스크리닝 수행이 가능하도록 구성하여 셀 지연 시간을 최소화하였다.

Breast MRI is the most accurate adjunctive to the mammography for the screening of breast cancer. Despite lack of randomized controlled trials on the effectiveness of MRI screening, it is now recommended for the women at high risk for breast cancer by the American Cancer Society and the National Comprehensive Cancer Network based on several prospective observational studies. In Korea, a retrospective study reported that preoperative MRI screening of the contralateral breast in women with unilateral breast cancer was associated with reduced metachronous cancer incidence. To introduce breast MRI as a supplemental modality to screening mammography in Korea, standardization and education of interpretation, establishment of MR-guided biopsy and adequate indication, and evaluation of cost-effectiveness and should be preceded.

There are three types of urinalysis: physical test, chemical test, and microscopic test. Among these, the chemical urinalysis is an easily accessible method of the general public to compare the chemical reaction of urinalysis strip with a standard colorimetric table by sight or purchase the portable urinalysis machine separately. Currently, with the popularization of smartphone, research on the urinalysis service using smartphone is increasing. The urinalysis screening application is one of the urinalysis services using a smartphone. However, the RGB values of the urinalysis pad taken by the urinalysis screening application have large deviations due to the effect of lighting. Deviation of RGB value debases the accuracy of urinalysis discrimination. Therefore, in this paper, the accuracy of urinaylsis pad image discrimination is improved through CNN after classifying urinalysis strips taken by the urinalysis screening application based on smartphone by urinalysis pad items. Urinalysis strip was taken from various backgrounds to generate CNN image, and urinalysis discrimination was analyzed using the ResNet-50 CNN model.

Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW MRI) is a fast unenhanced technique that shows promise as a stand-alone modality for cancer screening and characterization. Currently, DW MRI may have lower sensitivity than that of dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI as a standalone modality for breast cancer detection but superior to that of mammography, which may provide a useful alternative for supplemental screening. Standardized acquisition and interpretation of DW MRI can improve the image quality and reduce the variability of the results. Furthermore, high-resolution DW MRI, with advanced techniques and postprocessing, will facilitate better detection and characterization of subcentimeter cancers and reduce false-negatives and false-positives. Future results from ongoing prospective multicenter clinical trials using standardized and optimized protocols will facilitate the use of DW MRI as a stand-alone modality.

The urinalysis, which is universally accessible to the general public, has disadvantages of being less objective using sight and purchasing a separate portable urinalysis machine. However, due to the high penetration rate and performance improvement of smartphone created by the development of mobile communication technology, research on urinalysis services using smartphone has been conducted. In this paper, a new urinalysis screening application based on smartphone was developed by supplementing the limitations of the previously studied urinalysis services. The key technology of the application is urinalysis recognition algorithm and urinalysis pad color determination algorithm through image-processing and contour detection. In order to confirm the performance of the developed application, urinalysis strip was photographed and analyzed from various backgrounds and angles.

Korea Central Cancer Registry reported in 2011 that the prevalence rate of thyroid cancer was about 19.6% (the highest) in both men and women. The ratio of thyroid cancer, among cancers that women suffer from, was about 31.1%, the highest among female cancers and about five times more than men. Regarding the incidence of thyroid cancer by age group, the crude rate was highest in women and men aged 15~34. From these figures it can be inferred that there is a greater relationship between thyroid cancer and hormones compared with other cancers. Therefore, young women aged 20~25, even if they are in full health, should undergo a medical examination. This study is aimed at examining changes in thyroid gland detected through self evaluation tests and the analysis of ultrasound screening images in persons aged 20~25. According to the study, 213 persons (about 46.6%) out of 457 people who took part in the study had abnormal echo patterns. With regard to women's abnormal patterns, about 73.4% of them were found to have calcified cystic, 11.8% diffuse-type low-echo and 7.3% cystic echo. With regard to male participants, about 61.1% were found to have calcified cystic, followed by 19.4% with the size of the isthmus increased and 13.9% with diffuse-type low-echo. According to the outcomes of an analysis regarding self-testing for hyperthyroidism, the average points of participants who were found to have abnormal echo patterns in ultrasound tests were 6.85 and the figure was 5.88 in persons with normal patterns. The figure was about 15% higher in abnormal respondents.

Purpose: To follow up Korean patients with metabolic and endocrine disorders ascertained by Korea Genetics Research Center, and assess the long-term effectiveness of extended newborn screening program in Korea. Methods: From January 2000 to December 2017, tandem mass spectrometry and fluoroimmunoassay were employed in extended newborn screening (NBS). The NBS program obtained dried blood spots from 283,626 babies, 48 hours after birth, and screened for galactosemia, congenital hypothyroidism (CH), congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), and 50 preventable inborn errors of amino acid, fatty acid, and organic acid metabolism. Results: 28 cases of amino acid disorders, 75 cases of organic acid disorders, 27 cases of fatty acid disorders, 51 cases of urea cycle disorders, 127 cases of CH, 14 cases of CAH, and 15 cases of galactosemia were ascertained through NBS and subsequent confirmatory laboratory tests. Patients with amino acid metabolic disorders, galactosemia, CH, or CAH were more likely to have a better long-term outcome if detected early. Early management of MSUD led to much better outcome in over 90%. Despite early intervention, 32% of other organic acidemia cases still resulted in developmental delay and neurological problems. Fatty acid disorders showed varied results; those with EMA and MCAD had a good outcome, but those with VLCAD had serious neurological problems and considerably higher mortality. 75% with UCD experienced serious neurological complications and higher mortality. Conclusion: The nation-wide NBS program must be accompanied by comprehensive long-term management and physician and family education of inborn errors of metabolism for a better outcome.

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the neurocognitive ability and the risk factors of non-contact anterior cruciate ligament injuries during landing in female recreational athletes. Thirty-two female athletes participated in computerized neurocognition test and motion analysis for drop vertical jump. Pearson's linear correlation analysis was performed to analyze the relationship between the raw scores of neurocognition test and biomechanical variables including 3D joint angle, moment, power, vertical ground reaction force, loading rate, and support time. There were correlations between the scores of neurocognition test and biomechanical variables as high the neurocognition score, it also increase landing strategies were used to maintain posture of the lower extremity. Therefore, the neurocognitive test might be used as a good screening method to detect the risk factors before injury.
