The innominate artery aneurysm is an uncommon entity. A 36-year-old man was transferred to our hospital because of incidental finding of right superior mediastinal mass. He had a history of blunt chest trauma due to automobile accident 16 years earlier. Computed tomography scanning demonstrated 5-cm sized sacular aneurysm with thrombus at the innominate artery. The prosthetic bifurcated bypass grafting from the ascending aorta to the right common carotid artery and right subclavian artery was performed under the moderate hypothermic cardioplumonary bypass. We report a successful surgical treatment for a rare case of the innominate artery aneurysm.

Purpose: Fasciocutaneous flap with random pattern flap has limitation in mobility and length - width ratio. This characteristic is more pronounced in lower extremity which has relatively poor vascularity. Perforator based flap in lower extremity reconstruction has various advantages as a axial flap, allowing abundant blood supply and widening of mobility range. So if it is not a case of wide defect, free flap can be replaced by perforator based flap. Methods: From April 2007 to March 2009, 18 cases of perforator flap were performed. 8 had defect in upper 1/3 of calf, 6 in middle 1/3, and 4 in lower 1/3. In 10 cases island flap were used, 3 case had transposition flap, 2 cases used advancement flap, 2 case had propeller flap and 1 case had rotation flap. Results: 17 cases survived without flap necrosis. Partial flap necrosis occurred in 1 case, so secondary split thickness skin graft was done. Chronic wound with pseudomonas infection occurred in 1 case, but it was completely cured with conservative treatment. Conclusion: Perforator based flap is useful in lower extremity reconstruction because of relative freedom in changing the size and thickness of the flap depending on the recipient site, good mobility, and abundant vascularity. And donor site morbidity can be minimized. Lower extremity reconstruction using perforator based flap is a good method because it can minimize the complication and obtain effective result.

Reexpansion pulmonary edema is a rare complication of the treatment of lung collapse secondary to pneumothordx, pleural effusion, or atelectasis but occasionally life threatening. Generally, reexpansion pulmonary edema is believed to o cur only when a chronically collapsed lung is rapidly reexpanded by evacuation or large amounts of air or fluid. This complication is heralded by tachypnea, unilateral rales, and profuse expectoration of frothy secretion within several hours of reexpansion. Increased dur- ation of pneumothorax and the use o( suction are important factors in the generation of reexpansion pulmonary edema. We had experienced 3 cases of reexpansion pulmonary edema. In the two cases the pneumothorax had been present for several days, and, after insertion of a chest tube, pulmonary edema developed unilaterally but improved with supplemental oxygen. In the third case, massive pleural effusion was present. and, after insertion of a chest tube, pulmonary edema developed unilaterally, followed by cardiac arrest. He died of pulmonary edema inspire of resuscitation.

To search a pattern P in a text, such index data structures as suffix trees and suffix arrays are widely used in diverse applications of string processing and computational biology. It is well known that searching in suffix trees is faster than suffix ways in the aspect of time complexity, i.e., it takes O(${\mid}P{\mid}$) time to search P on a constant-size alphabet in a suffix tree while it takes O(${\mid}P{\mid}+logn$) time in a suffix way where n is the length of the text. In this paper we present a linear-tim8 search algorithm in suffix arrays for constant-size alphabets. For a gene.al alphabet $\Sigma$, it takes O(${\mid}P{\mid}log{\mid}{\Sigma}{\mid}$) time.

To search efficiently a text T of length n for a pattern P over an alphabet 5, suffix trees and suffix arrays are widely used. In case of a large text, suffix arrays are preferred to suffix trees because suffix ways take less space than suffix trees. Recently, O(${\mid}P{\mid}{\codt}{\mid}{\Sigma}{\mid}$-time and O(${\mid}P{\mid}P{\cdot}log{\mid}{\Sigma}{\mid}$)-time search algorithms in suffix ways were developed. In this paper we present time and space efficient search algorithms in suffix arrays. One algorithm runs in O(${\mid}P{\mid}$) time using O($n{\cdot}{\mid}{\Sigma}{\mid}$)-bits space, and the other runs in O($n{\cdot}{\mid}{\Sigma}{\mid}$ time using O($nlog{\mid}{\Sigma}{\mid}+{\mid}{\Sigma}{\mid}{\cdot}$nlog log n/logn)-bits space, which is more space efficient and still fast. Experiments show that our algorithms are efficient in both time and space when compared to previous algorithms.

It is very difficult that a company could grow with its own competitiveness in modern global competition era. The pattern of competition is changing from company-to-company to supply chain network-to-supply chain network. In order to enhance competitiveness and survive capability by combining inter-enterprises core competencies, the effort to integrate and optimize supply chain are increasing. The purpose of this study was to specify the effects of SCM characteristics on supply chain partnership and corporate performance through corporate characteristics such as agility and visibility. So as to verify hypotheses, multiple regression analysis was performed by using SPSS statistical package. The results showed that SCM characteristics had the positive effect on agility and visibility, and supply chain partnership and corporate performance was statistically influenced by agility and visibility. This study contributes on the SCM related research in that it investigated SCM activities of construction machinery industry.

This study was accomplished to examine the relationship between the videogame player's perceived congruity and intention to game use, and to investigate the mediating effect of emotion as the psychological factor. Games for the research subject are confined to single player games on console or PC not online or mobile games to rule out human interaction. The results proposed that self and functional congruity have positive impact on intention to game use, and emotion is in the mediating effect of these relationships. Based on the results of the analysis, game producers have some implications for the game which is appropriate for the quality, the gamer's image, and the emotional aspect.

This was a descriptive study to investigate the effect of social support and health literacy on sick role behaviors in hemodialysis patients. A total of 149 outpatients receiving regular hemodialysis at four dialysis centers located in J city were surveyed. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient, and multiple linear regression. Factors including social support (β=.37, p<.001), health literacy (β=.16, p=.035), and religion (others) (β=-.25, p=.001) had an effect on sick role behavior. The explanatory power of model in this study was 22.0%. Therefore, the improvement of sick role behavior in patients undergoing hemodialysis requires specific strategies and interventions that are effective in increasing the social support and health literacy.

Recently, to relieve the performance degradation caused by the bottleneck between CPU and main memory, cache conscious multi-dimensional index structures have been proposed. The ultimate goal of them is to reduce the space for entries so as to widen index trees and minimize the number of cache misses. The existing index structures can be classified into two approaches according to their entry reduction methods. One approach is to compress MBR keys by quantizing coordinate values to the fixed number of bits. The other approach is to store only the sides of minimum bounding regions (MBRs) that are different from their parents partially. In this paper, we propose a new index structure that exploits the properties of the both techniques. Then, we investigate the existing multi-dimensional index structures for main memory database system through experiments under the various work loads. We perform various experiments to show that our approach outperforms others.
