Nowadays, as construction projects become bigger, the probability of construction accidents is higher than any other day. When construction accidents break out, we may suffer from the loss of life and property. For preventing these damages, there is lawed that some public constructions have to insure Contractor's all risks insurance policy (CAR), However, CAR is used to preventing the insured from the loss of construction accidents, it is debated that the premium rate of CAR is not fair to the insured (contractors) The objects of this thesis are as follows Firstly, the fairness of the premium rate of CAR is reviewed, and then the amount of risk of the insured evaluates and applies to the premium rate. Secondly, the development direction of components for evaluating the amount of risk of the insured is presented in the research. Lastly, how to use the team which assesses the risk of the insured and construction works is proposed for deciding reasonably the premium rate of CAR

Developmental dysplasia of the hip broadly includes inadequate development of the hip joint involving the acetabulum or proximal femur, or both. Although ultrasonographic studies in neonates have greatly lowered the frequency of neglected or operatively treated cases, its sensitivity is less than desired. Hip dysplasia without subluxation is commonly diagnosed incidentally and strongly related to degenerative arthritis in females after the 4th decade. Hip dysplasia with subluxation shows symptoms through various periods, depending on its severity, especially for women with onset during pregnancy. A complete physical examination and early treatment for neonates are extremely important for obtaining satisfactory outcomes. To avoid underdiagnosis and to serve appropriate treatment on time, the authors recommend examining any suspicious hips in infants under two years of age. The study will discuss the diagnosis and primary treatment of developmental dysplasia of the hip.

A Compton camera, which is based on the geometrical interpretation of Compton scattering, is a very promising gamma-ray imaging device considering its several advantages over the conventional gamma-ray imaging devices: high imaging sensitivity, 3-D imaging capability from a fixed position, multi-tracing functionality, and almost no limitation in photon energy. In the present study, a Monte Carlo-based, user-friendly Compton imaging simulator was developed in the form of a graphical user interface (GUI) based on Geant4 and $MATLAB^{TM}$. The simulator was tested against the experimental result of the double-scattering Compton camera, which is under development at Hanyang University in Korea. The imaging resolution of the simulated Compton image well agreed with that of the measured image. The imaging sensitivity of the measured data was 2~3 times higher than that of the simulated data, which is due to the fact that the measured data contains the random coincidence events. The performance of a stacking-structure type Compton camera was evaluated by using the simulator. The result shows that the Compton camera shows its highest performance when it uses 4 layers of scatterer detectors.

The sport industry has been continuing to grow in the past few decades in the U.S., and it presents significant opportunities for the practitioners to increase the number of patrons. To convert this opportunity to optimum benefits for a sport organization, one of the most significant challenges for the practitioners would be promoting sport attendance and repatronage. So far, many studies have tried to identify variables that affect the level of sports attendance. However, many of these variables are rather uncontrollable due to the nature of the sports and contingencies that are derived from many areas of uncertainties. Thus, to acquire competitive advantage and profit maximization, it would be essential for the managers to focus on understanding controllable elements. This study found that many controllable variables that influence sports attendance coincide with the servicescape elements which have been widely used in the hospitality industry since 1992. In the light of the conceptual framework of servicescape, this study also attempted to isolate the controllable variables that can be utilized to increase the sports attendance. This study presents its significance not only in extending the application of servicescape concept to the sport industry, but also in providing suggestions for future empirical studies that would further identify these variables, gauge the relationship between those variables, and assess its impact on the sports attendance.

This study is about the origin of Toigye's SaDanChilJeongRiGiHoBalRon (四端七情理氣互發論: theory of humanity and the relation between humanity and heaven's principle). In this study, I looked into the influences of Toigye's elders on such theory of Toigye. In this process, I introduced SimHakJangGuJipJuDaeJeon (心學章句集註大全) I obtained recently as a main material. This book was written by an uncelebrated scholar born in 60 years before Toigye. It showed "SaDanRiBalYiGiSuJi ChilJeongGiBalRiSeungJi (四端理發而氣隨之 七情氣發而理乘之)", which was as same as Toigye's study logic. Regarding the fact that such two logics were same, I traced the transferring path of such logic weighing the possibility of transferring such book or HoBalRon shown in such book while not completely neglecting an accidental coincidence. I also induced that the pro-Toigye-era also had the academic circumstance under which RiGiHoBalRon could be born even supposing an accidental coincidence. In addition, I also emphasized that such book was positioned to pioneer Toigye's neo-Confucianism in various aspects.

Solitary necrotic nodule (SNN) of the liver is a very uncommon benign lesion, and it is detected incidentally as a rule. It is important to differentiate SNN radiologically from various single hepatic nodules because SNN mimics hepatic metastasis, especially in staging work up of known primary malignancy. The reported imaging findings of SNN are well-defined nodule without enhancement or with subtle peripheral enhancement. There has been no report about the target-like SNN of the liver and about the imaging finding of 3T magnetic resonance imaging and positron emission tomography. We report a case of targetlike SNN of the liver, mimicking hepatic metastasis, with findings of various imaging modalities and try to find a cause of this nodule according to the pathologic and literature review.

양성 종양(benign tumor)을 언급하기에 앞서 과오종(hamartoma) 및 과다 형성(hyperplasia)과의 차이를 구분할 필요가 있다. 양성 종양은 기원조직과 유사한 조직이 이상 증식하는 것으로 서서히 성장하지만 일반적으로 치료하기 전까지 이상 증식을 지속하는 진성 신생물을 일컫는다. 이에 비해 과오종은 정상 조직이 무질서하게 과증식하는 것으로 일정기간 후에는 성장을 멈추기 때문에 진성 신생물로 간주하지 않는다. 그러나 일부 과오종이 양성 종양에 포함되기도 하는데, 예를 들어 치아종은 정상적인 치성 조직의 성장이 완료되는 시기와 거의 동일한 시기에 성장을 멈추지만 양성 종양으로 분류된다. 과다 형성은 조직의 세포가 정상적인 배열 양상을 보이면서 세포의 수가 증가하는 것으로 지속적인 성장 양상을 보이지만 그 성장이 제한적이므로 양성 종양과는 구별된다. 양성 종양은 일반적으로 무통성으로 서서히 성장하기 때문에 종양의 크기가 증가하여 안면 종창이나 동통 등을 유발하는 경우에 발견될 수 있으며, 방사선검사에서 우연히 발견되기도 한다. 방사선검사는 병소의 위치, 범위, 특징 및 병소와 인접 해부학적 구조와의 관계 등 많은 방사선학적 진단 정보를 제공한다. 일부 종양은 방사선사진에서 매우 특징적인 소견을 나타내기 때문에 방사선학적 소견으로 예비 진단을 할 수 있을 정도의 진단정보를 제공하기도 하는 반면 어떤 종양들은 방사선사진에서 관찰되는 소견이 매우 유사하여 진단에 어려움을 주기도 한다. 따라서 종양의 확진을 위해서는 생검이 필수적이며, 방사선검사는 반드시 생검에 앞서 진행되어야만 정확한 방사선학적 진단을 할 수 있다. 양성 종양은 각각의 특징적인 방사선학적인 소견을 나타내지만 일반적으로 관찰되는 양성 종양의 특징이 존재하므로 이러한 일반적인 특징을 관찰하여 병소가 양성인지 악성인지를 감별할 수 있다. 첫째, 양성 종양은 대개 호발하는 부위가 있으므로 종양의 발생부위는 감별 진단을 하는 데 매우 중요하다. 일반적으로 치성 병소는 치아가 형성되는 하악관 상방의 치조돌기에서, 혈관성 및 신경성 병소는 하악관 내에서, 연골성 종양은 하악과두와 같이 연골세포가 잔존되어 있는 부위에서 발생하는 경우가 많다. 둘째, 양성 종양은 대체로 명확한 경계와 피질골성 변연을 보이며, 종종 병소가 결체조직으로 둘러싸여 있어 병소 주위에 방사선투과성 띠가 관찰되기도 한다. 셋째, 양성 종양은 일반적으로 인접 주위 조직에 압력을 가하면서 서서히 성장하기 때문에 인접 치아의 변위 또는 흡수, 피질골의 비박, 팽융 등의 소견을 보이며 피질골의 천공은 드물다. 방사선학적으로 양성 종양의 병소 내부는 방사선투과상으로 관찰되거나, 방사선불투과상으로 관찰되거나, 방사선투과상과 방사선불투과상이 혼재된 상으로 관찰된다. 저자는 이 지면에서 이러한 방사선학적 특징을 기초로 하여 구강악안면영역에 발생하는 양성 종양을 분류하고 각각의 특징에 대해 살펴보고자 한다.

Antiphospholipid syndrome is a thrombotic disorder characterized by the association of arterial and venous thrombosis with the antibodies directed toward phospholipids. The presence of these antibodies in systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE) has been shown to be related to several clinical and analytical alterations. We experienced one case of lupus nephritis with positive antiphospholipid antibodies in a 10-year-old girl whose chief complaint was persistent microscopic hematuria. We report this case with a brief review of related literatures. (J. Korean Soc Pediatr Nephrol 2001 ;5 : 219-24)

Primary malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the lung is extremely rare, A 12-year-old child was admitted to the hospital due to an incidentally detected lung mass. A $2.5{\times}2.5 cm$ sized mass located in the right lower lobe was seen on the chest X-ray, the chest computed tomogram and the positron emission tomogram. We resected the mass through a right lateral thoracotomy and the mass was revealed to be a malignant spindle cell neoplasm on the frozen section diagnosis. So, we performed lobectomy of the right lower lobe with systemic dissection of the mediastinal lymph nodes; the final histopathological diagnosis of the mass was malignant fibrous histiocytoma. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 7 and adjuvant chemotherapy was not applied.

With the abundance of digital contents, the necessity of precise indexing technology is consistently required. To meet these requirements, the intelligent software entity needs to be the subject of information retrieval and the interoperability among intelligent entities including human must be supported. In this paper, we analyze the unifying framework for multi-modality indexing that Snoek and Worring proposed. Our work investigates the method of improving the authenticity of indexing information in contents-based automated indexing techniques. It supports the creation and control of abstracted high-level indexing information through ontological concepts of Semantic Web skills. Moreover, it attempts to present the fundamental model that allows interoperability between human and machine and between machine and machine. The memory-residence model of processing ontology is inappropriate in order to take-in an enormous amount of indexing information. The use of ontology repository and inference engine is required for consistent retrieval and reasoning of logically expressed knowledge. Our work presents an experiment for storing and retrieving the designed knowledge by using the Minerva ontology repository, which demonstrates satisfied techniques and efficient requirements. At last, the efficient indexing possibility with related research is also considered.
