Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze correlation between bruxism and occlusal contacts on balancing side. Materials and Methods: The purpose of this study is to compare the difference of group function and balancing side occlusal contacts according to bruxism and sex, A total of 100 adults that aged 26-37 years (39 bruxers and 61 non-bruxers) were examined. The lateral excursion and balanced occlusal contacts were analyzed to determine the correlation with bruxism. The occlusal contacts were recorded by T-Scan system and articulating paper. Results: The group function was the highest in 61.5% of bruxers and 47.5% of non-bruxers. In comparison between males and females, group function was 58.9% in males and 37.0% in females. Occlusal contacts on non-working side occurred in 48 out of 100 patients. There were 51.2% of the cases in the bruxers and 46.0% in the non-bruxers. Statistically, there was no correlation between the bruxism and occlusal contacts on non-working side. There was no correlation between sex and balancing occlusal contacts. Conclusion: There was no significant correlation between bruxism and occlusal contacts on non-working side. The group function was the highest in bruxers when lateral excursion was occurred.

Purpose: Recently, a wide application of gastrofiberscopy in the pediatric group have revealed that nodular duodenitis is not an uncommon disease in children and is suspected to be associated with H. pylori infection. The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate the clinical and histopathologic features in children with nodular duodenitis, and to assess the correlations beween both. Methods: During a period of 5 years (Jan. 1995~Dec. 1999), we investigated clinical, endoscopic and histopathologic features of 39 consecutive patients diagnosed as having nodular duodenitis at Pediatric department of Seoul Red Cross Hospital. In 35 children with nodular duodenitis endoscopic biopsy specimens were stained with Hematoxylin & Eosin and Giemsa's stain, and were graded according to the criteria outlined by Triadafilopoulos, Whitehead et al., and Prieto et al.. Statistical analyses were performed with Graph PAD InStat. Results: The prevalence rate of nodular duodenitis was 17.1% and the most frequent chief complaint was abdominal pain (69.2%). Endoscopically grade 1 was the most common (45.7%) and nodular gastritis was coexistent in 28.3%. The most common histology of the duodenum was grade 2 (54.3%), and the most common histologic score of the stomach was 2 (42.9%). H. pylori was found in the duodenum in 37.1%, and in the stomach in 31.4%. The correlation coefficient between the endoscopic grade and the histologic grade of nodular duodenitis was 0.3983 (p=0.0178). And the correlation coefficient between the histologic grade and the grade of H. pylori colonization in the duodenum was 0.5154 (p=0.0018). Conclusion: There was significant correlation between the endoscopic grade and the histologic grade of nodular duodenitis, and was also significant correlation between the histologic grade and the grade of H. pylori colonization in the duodenum. Therfore H. pylori infection should be regarded as an etiologic factor of nodular duodenitis.

Purpose: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection has been known to be vital in the pathogenesis of duodenal ulcer disease in children as well as in adults. But the relationship between H. pylori infection and the histopathologic findings of the duodenum has not been explained obviously in children yet. So the aim of this study is to determine whether duodenitis and/or gastric metaplasia in the duodenum increases the risk of duodenal ulcer disease in children infected by H. pylori. Methods: From October 2001 to April 2004 gastric and duodenal biopsies were performed in 177 children who visited Department of Pediatrics, Gil Hospital, Gachon Medical School. Biopsy sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin and also with Giemsa for identification of H. pylori. The grades of duodenitis and gastric metaplasia were classified from 0 to 3 and from 0 to 4, respectively. Results: The incidence of H. pylori infection was 54% in total patients. Amongst 163 children with duodenitis there was a lack of correlation between H. pylori infection and the grade of duodenitis. Amongst 11 patients with duodenal ucler, only 4 children were infected by H. pylori. And amongst 5 patients with gastric metaplasia, H. pylori and duodenal ulcer were detected in 2 and 3 children, respectively. The occurrence of duodenal ulcer and gastric metaplasia were increased significantly in proportion to the grade of duodenitis (p<0.0001 and p=0.0365, respectively). Conclusion: As opposed to the results of previously reported articles, there were lacks of correlation between H. pylori infection and duodenitis, duodenal ulcer, and gastric metaplasia. So further study hould be done to clarify the effect of H. pylori on the duodenal histopathology in children infected by H. pylori.

In this paper, we deal with the cryptographic properties of Boolean functions generated by recursively extended methods from the points of balancedness, nonlinearity and correlation properties. First, we propose a new concept 'Strict Uncorrelated Criterion(SUC)' for two Boolean functions as a necessary condition for constructing Boolean functions of S-box which can be guaranteed to be resistant against Differential cryptanalysis, then we show that the recurively extended Boolean functions with particular form preserve the SUC. We also examine the correlation properties of Boolean functions using Walsh-Hadamard transformations and apply them to discuss nonlinearity, correlation properties and SUC of semi-bent function which is defined over odd dimensional vector space. Finally, we compare semi-bent function with Boolean functions which are generated by other similar recursive methods.

정보시스템 아웃소싱(outsourcing)의 적용 범위와 그 규모가 증대함에 따라, 아웃 소시은 정보시스템의 관리에서 근본적인 이슈로 등장하게 되었다. 정보시스템 아웃소시의 중요성이 인식되었으나, 그에 대한 실증적 연구는 매우 미흡한 실정이다. 본 연구의 주요 목적은 정보시스템 아웃소싱에 있어 고객회사(client firm)와 서비스 제공업자(vendor)간의 관계의 성공 및 실패에 영향을 미치는 요인을 조사하는 것이다. 본 연구의 연구 모델은 관 계적 거래이론(relational exchange theory), 커뮤티케이션 행동(communication behavior), 거래비용분석(transaction cost analysis) 등의 조직간 관계(interorganizational relationship) 이론에 기반을 두고 작성되었다. 미국의 207개 회사의 정보시스템 아웃소싱 설문조사에 의 하여 다음과 같은 연구결과가 도출되었다. (1) 서비스 제공업자의 능력(vendor capability), 관계결속성(solidarity), 터링(monitoring of the vendor), 참여도(participation) 등이 아웃소 싱 관계의 성공과 양의 상관관계를 가지고 있으며, (2) 역할참여도(role integrity), 자산특이 성(asset specificity) 등은 아웃소싱 관계의 성공과 음의 관계를 가지고 있는 것으로 나타났 다. 이 결과에 의하면, 비관계적 거래(discrete exchange) 보다는, 관계적거래(relational exchange)에 기반을 두어 아웃소싱 관계를 운영하는 것이 아웃소싱의 성공적인 구현을 위 하여 필수적으로 보여진다. 이 연구 결과를 기초로 하여 아웃소싱 대상 업무의 선택, 서비 스 제공업자의 선택, 그리고 아웃소싱 관계의 지속적인 관리를 위한 지침을 제시하였다.

Purpose: The aim of the current study was to compare body mass index (BMI) with waist circumference (WC) as a predictor of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP). Methods: The subjects were consisted of 458 adults, aged 20 year or above, of one community in Kyunggi-do. Mean IOPs were stratified jointly for BMI and WC tertiles. Multi-variate linear regression analysis was also used to compare between BMI and WC. Results: Although any BMI tertiles were not associated with IOP within each tertile of WC, WC tertiles was significantly related to elevation of IOP within the third BMI tertile (${\geq}24.9kg/m^2$). After adjusting for age and sex, only WC showed significant association with IOP. In additional adjustment for lifestyle variables, both BMI and WC were significantly associated with elevation of IOP. However, the results showed the stronger association of IOP with WC than BMI, whether they were adjusted by age and sex or additionally lifestyle variables. Conclusions: These data showed that BMI and WC were positively associated with IOP. However, WC appeared to be a better indicator for higher IOP than BMI.

우리나라의 하천환경은 1990년대 이전의 산업화와 인구증가를 수반한 고도성장기를 거치면서 이수성 및 치수성만을 강조하며 개수되고 관리되었다. 그 결과 하천은 획일적인 단면과 저수로 및 제방이 콘크리트화되면서 하천의 자정능력은 감소되었고, 하천을 중심으로 생활하는 동물들의 서식처 기능을 상실해 하천생태계가 위협받고 있다. 하천공사에 자연형 하천공법이 도입되기 시작하여 자연형 하천공사가 이루어지고 있지만 생태환경의 관점보다는 조경 및 경관적, 그리고 위락적인 관점에서 공원화에 주안점을 두고 있어 하천의 생태적 특성의 반영이 부족하다는 평가를 듣고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 향후의 하천공법이 자연적 기능들 중 생물서식처 기능을 보다 깊이 다루어야 한다는 필요성을 고려하여, 먹이사슬의 최상위에 있을 뿐만 아니라 하천환경의 건강도를 판단할 수 있는 수환경의 지표종이라 불리는 수달(Lutra lutra)을 대상으로 배설물에 의한 출현빈도와 하천환경 요인들에 대한 상관관계를 분석하여 수달 서식지 복원을 위한 하천정비의 기초자료를 제공하는 데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 현재 수달이 서식하고 있는 섬진강 지류인 서시천을 연구 대상지점으로 하여 5개 구간을 선정하였으며, 각 구간에 대한 계절별 수달의 배설물 분포를 조사하여 출현빈도를 나타내었다. 또한 먹이, 지형, 식생, 기상인자를 포함한 하천환경 요인들에 대한 자료를 각 계절별로 구축하였으며, 이를 수달의 출현빈도와의 상관관계를 조사하는데 활용하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 환경 기술적으로는 멸종위기종의 복원, 사회경제적으로는 하천정비사업의 방향제시 등의 기대효과를 가져올 수 있으리라 생각되며 분석된 인자들은 수달 서식지를 위한 하천정비의 기초자료에 유용할 것으로 보인다.따른 유량측정망을 구축하는 것이다.의 의사결정 지원 도구가 될 것이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 도시유역의 물순환 해석을 위한 일련의 과정, 즉 자료의 조사 및 취득에서부터 물순환 해석 모형을 이용한 정량적 현황파악, 물순환 개선 기법 및 평가를 수행함에 있어 주요 착안점 및 실무에서의 기술적 가이드를 제공하고자 하였으며, 보다 세밀한 도시유역의 물순환 해석을 위하여 우리나라와 일본에서 적용이 활발한 물리적 기반의 분포형 모형(WEP, SHER, SWMM)의 적용사례를 통하여 국내 도시하천의 물순환 해석에 활용함에 있어서의 실질적인 적용절차 등을 제시하고자 하였다. 한다.호강유역의 급격한 수질개선을 알 수 있다.世宗實錄) $\ulcorner$지리지$\lrcorner$(地理志)와 동년대에 동일한 목적으로 찬술되었음을 알 수 있다. $\ulcorner$경상도실록지리지$\lrcorner$(慶尙道實錄地理志)에는 $\ulcorner$세종실록$\lrcorner$(世宗實錄) $\ulcorner$지리지$\lrcorner$(地理志)와의 비교를 해보면 상 중 하품의 통합 9개소가 삭제되어 있고, $\ulcorner$동국여지승람$\lrcorner$(東國與地勝覽) 에서는 자기소와 도기소의 위치가 완전히 삭제되어 있다. 이러한 현상은 첫째, 15세기 중엽 경제적 태평과 함께 백자의 수요 생산이 증가하자 군신의 변별(辨別)과 사치를 이유로 강력하게 규제하여 백자의 확대와 발전에 걸림돌이 되었다. 둘째, 동기(銅器)의 대체품으로 자기를 만들어 충당해야할 강제성 당

Concrete is a construction material with porous media and corroded steel inside affects negatively to durability and structural safety. This study aims a derivation of quantitative relationship between measured HCP (Half Cell Potential) and corrosion amount considering cover depth and W/C (water to cement) ratio. For the work, cement mortar specimens with 3 different W/C ratios and 4 different cover depths are prepared, HCPs are measured with 3 different corrosion level. HCP measurement significantly increases in the saturated condition and linear relationship is observed between corrosion level and acceleration period. With increasing corrosion level and W/C ratio, and decreasing cover depth, HCP measurement increases. Considering total corrosion level and HCP measurements, relatively low COV(Coefficient of Variation) of 0.67 is evaluated through multi-linear regression analysis, however higher COVs over 0.90 can be obtained considering level of HCP measurement. In the room condition, corrosion level can be evaluated through measured HCP in the given conditions of cover depth, W/C ratio. diameter of steel inside.

In this paper, we theoretically examine the characteristics of an Artificial Magnetic Conductor (AMC) constructed of a perfect electric conductor and a normal material having permittivity ε_r, permeability μ_r, and thickness L. First, we derived rigorous equations to describe the infinite AMC structure. Then, we studied how the AMC's characteristics are affected by changes in ε_r, μ_r and L. The operating center frequency exhibiting a 0° reflection coefficient phase occurs when L is one quarter of a guide wavelength. Therefore, the AMC thickness can be reduced by using a material having a high product of ε_r and μ_r. As the ratio μ_r/ε_r increases, the bandwidth of the AMC increases (maximum value: 200 %), and its operating frequency decreases. We also find out he bandwidth of the AMC is improved by introducing a loss in the material. To validate the AMC, we design a dipole antenna on the AMC and demonstrate a relationship between AMC phase and dipole antenna's operating frequency by investigating the dipole on the AMC with different pairs of ε_r and μ_r.
