There have been many emotion researches to investigate physiological responses on specific emotions with physiological parameters such as heart rate, blood volume flow, and skin conductance. Very few researches, however, exists by detecting them with facial skin temperature. The purpose of present study was to observe the differences of facial skin temperature by using thermal camera, when participants stimulated by monitor scenes which could evoke fear or joy. There were totally 98 of participants; undergraduate students who were in their adult age and middle, high school students who were in their adolescence. We measured their facial temperature, before and after presenting emotional stimulus to see changes between both times. Temperature values were extracted in these regions; forehead, inner corners of the eyes, bridge of the nose, end of the nose, and cheeks. Temperature values in bridge and end of the nose were significantly decreased in fear emotion stimulated. There was also significant temperature increase in the area of forehead and the inner corners of the eyes, while the temperature value in end of the nose decreased. It showed decrease in both stimulated fear and joy. These results might be described as follows: When arousal level going up, sympathetic nervous activity increases, and in turn it makes blood flow in peripheral vessels under the nose decrease. Facial temperature changes by fear or joy in this study were the same as the previous studies which measured temperature of finger tip, when participants experiencing emotions. Our results may help to develop emotion-measuring techniques and establish computer system bases which are to detect human emotions.

Color rings have been commonly and widely used in many ecological and ornithological studies in the field, but color ring-induced injury in passerines is poorly documented. In this report, we describe the first case of toe loss caused by a dislocated split Darvic ring in a Pale Thrush (Turdus pallidus) that was recaptured 596 days after its initial capture and release on Hong-do Island, the Republic of Korea. We also found that a left hind toe of a Light-vented Bulbul (Pycnonotus sinensis) was entrapped by a split color ring when the bird was observed 135 days after the marking at Heuksan-do Island. Based on these two cases out of the 1,900 color ringed birds, we emphasize a precautionary approach following general guidelines in the application and use of color leg rings for future studies.

The purpose of this study was to reveal the thermal comfort and physiological and psychological effects of spending time in broad-leaved forests in suumer. Thirty-one university students (with an average age of 21.4 ± 2.1 years) participated in the study, and a within-subjects experimental design methodology was used. The participants moved to an experimental site (with a crown closure of 76.6%) or a control site (25.9%), sat on a chair to eliminate the impact of movement, and rested for 5 minutes with closed eyes. At this time, thermal comfort, heart rate variability, heart rate, and forehead temperature were continuously measured. After that, blood pressure and pulse rate were measured, and a subjective evaluation was conducted. As a result, spending time at an experimental site showed a statistically significant decrease in the predicted mean vote and the percentage of dissatisfied values, enhancement of parasympathetic nerve activity, decrease of forehead temperature, diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, pulse rate, and improvement of personal thermal sensation (thermal sensation vote and comfort sensation vote). In conclusion, it was found that a forest with high crown closure reduces thermal stress and induces physiological and psychological relaxation.

정신한은행은 '10년 1 월부터 6월까지 약 6개월 동안 "위험관리 기반의 침해사고 조기 대응체계 구축" 프로젝트를 수행하여 침해 시도 조기 탐지 및 대응을 위한 "침해사고 조기 경보 시스템" 및 "침해 사고 대응 프로세스 전산화"와 침해 사고의 사전 예방 강화를 위한 "정보시스템 상시 취약점 점검 체계"를 모두 하나의 프레임웍으로 묶어 통합 구축하였다. 신한은행은 이를 통해 내부망 및 인터넷 서비스망에 대해서 이마 알려진 네트웍 침입 패턴뿐만 아니라 네트웍 트래픽 전반에 대한 모니터링을 대폭 강화하여 기존 침입탐지 시스템이나 디도스 대응 시스템 등에서 탐지가 불가능했던 신종 침입 유형이나 소규모 디도스 공격 트래픽도 자동화된 탐지가 가능하게 되었다. 그리고 탐지된 침입시도의 유행 및 위험 수준에 따라서 사전 정의된 침해사고 대응 프로세스를 통해, 정보보안 담당자가 관련 부서 및 경영진의 요구사항에 각각 최적화된 전용 상황 모니터링 화면을 공유하며 침해사고를 효과적으로 공동 대응할 수 있게 되었다. 또한 정보시스템 전반에 대하여 상시 취약점 점검을 실시하고 그 점검 결과를 데이터베이스로 구축하고 정보시스템의 위험 수준에 따른 체계화된 대응 방안을 수립할 수 있게 되었다. 신한은행은 금번 구축된 시스템을 정보보안 영역 전반으로 확대하여 동일 프레임웍에서 위험관리 기반의 내부 정보 유출 체계를 구축하고, 향후 그룹사에도 확대 적용하여 전체 그룹사의 보안 수준을 제고하는 데 활용할 계획이다. * 금번 구축 사례에서 소개된 침해사고 조기 대응체계는 구축 완료 시점에 사내 명칭 공모를 통해 "Ageis"로 선정되었으며, 본 사례에서도 전체 시스템을 가리킬 때 Ageis로 지칭한다.

A 5-year-old intact female Maltese dog was referred to us with a history of left side head tilt and ataxia. Based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and cerebrospinal fluid analysis results, the patient was tentatively diagnosed to meningoencephalitis of unknown etiology (MUE). Clinical signs were gradually improved and diminished after imatinib mesylate plus prednisolone therapy. At 90 days after treatment, we performed MRI recheck and brain inflammatory lesions were significantly improved compared with initial MRI results. However, the present patient showed head turn and tetraparesis after anesthesia and euthanized according to client's request. This report describes the clinical findings, serial magnetic resonance imaging characteristics under imatinib mesylate treatment in a MUE case.

Bromobutide, a paddy field herbicide, can effectively control annual and perennial weeds. It has an excellent weeding effect especially against Monochoria vaginalis and Scirpus juncoides etc. When it is mixed with other herbicides controlling weed spectrum and application timing can be broaden. Bromobutide has stable weeding effects regardless of field and weather conditions, and there is almost no phyototoxic effects to rice.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of low level laser. Methods : We searched 11 electronic databases(Pubmed, CAJ, EMBASE, Medline, Cochrane Library, KMBASE, KISS, KISTI, NDSL, RISS, Oasis) up to March 2019. We included randomized controlled trials(RCTs) using low level laser for alopecia. The methodological quality of each RCT was assessed by the Cochrane risk of bias tool. Results : 8 RCT studies were eligible in our review. The meta-analysis of 2 studies showed favorable results for the use of low level laser with minoxidil 5% than minoxidil 5% and 6 studies showed favorable results for the use of low level laser than placebo light. The results of meta-analysis showed that low-level laser has an efficacy on alopecia. There were no serious side effects or adverse effects. High risk of bias were observed in all studies. Conclusion : Now limited evidence is available to support low level laser for alopecia and further well-designed RCTs should be encouraged.

This paper proposes a GPU-based modeling and rendering of 3D clouds using procedural functions. The formation of clouds is based on modified noise function made with fbm(Fractional Brownian Motion). Those noise values turn into densities of droplets of liquid water, which is a critical parameter for forming the three different types of clouds. At the rendering stage, the algorithm applies the ray marching technique to decide the colors of cloud using density values obtained from the noise function. In this process, all lighting attenuation and scattering are calculated by physically based manner. Once we have the clouds, they are blended on the sky, which is also rendered physically. We also make the clouds moving in the sky by the wind force. All algorithms are implemented and tested on GPU using GLSL.

Ectodermal dysplasia is a hereditary disease characterized by a congenital dysplasia of one or more ectodermal structures and their accessory appendages. At least 120 subtypes of ectodermal dysplasia have been reported. The disease is usually transmitted as an X-linked recessive trait in which the gene is carried by the female and manifested in the male. Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia is manifested as a triad of defects that include hypohidrosis, hypotrichosis and hypodontia. The characteristic facial features consist of asteatosis, onchodysplasia, sparse and fine blond hair, prominent forehead, a depressed nasal bridge, thick everted lips. The patient may suffer from dry skin, hyperthermia and unexplained high fever as a result of the deficiency of sweat glands. This case report presents detailed procedures of rehabilitating functional and esthetic defect of a 6-year-old boy with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia along with the review of relevant literatures.
