In this paper, we propose a 'linear approximation method' which is an accelerated BER (Bit Error Rate) test method for high speed interfaces, based on an analytical BER model. Both the conventional 'Q-factor estimation method' and 'linear approximation method' can predict a timing margin for $10^{-13}$ BER with an error of about 0.03UI. This linear approximation method is implemented on a hardware as an accelerated Built-In Self Test (BIST) with an internal BERT (BET Tester). While a direct measurement of a timing margin in a 3Gbps interface takes about 5.6 hours with $10^{-13}$ BER requirement and 95% confidence level, the accelerated BIST estimates a timing margin within 0.6 second without a considerable loss of accuracy. The test results show that the error between the estimated timing margin and the timing margin from an actual measurement using the internal BERT is less than 0.045UI.

In the case of a weak self-control youth, young students easily tend to fall into addiction by using the Internet as a sensation seeking and an alternative to escape the reality. Until now, internet addiction self-diagnosis techniques such as Internet addiction scale have been developed and used to solve this kind of internet addiction issue. However, traditional methods do not assess the correlation of addiction and the effects of the environment systematically because they are simply composed of redundant addiction scale criteria and questionnaire forms of the diagnostic methods. Thus, in this paper, we propose a new internet addiction self-diagnosis technique based on Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) and implement a self-diagnosis system in order to make a systematic internet addiction self-diagnosis system. In addition, we analyze the correlation of the measured data based on different perspectives such as home environment, family relationships, peer relationships, school life, and so on.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of the surface treatment of widely used in dental of silane coupling agent concentration on the shear bond strength of denture base resin and self curing resins. Denture base resin surface was treated with silane coupling agent concentration, after self curing resins were injected shear bond strength was measured. The results of silane coupling agent(MPS) concentration on the shear bond strength of Vertex self curing resin showed that the value of 5%, 7% groups were higher than that of other group(P<0.05). Silane coupling agent concentration on the shear bond strength of Kooliner resin showed that the value of 5% was highest(P<0.05). Therefore, we could conclude 5% MPS to strengthen effectively the shear bonding property of denture base resin and self curing resins of this study.

슬릿트나 관형의 흐름에서 유체의 유변학적 성질을 측정하기 위해서는 벽면에서의 압력구배를 알아야한다. 벽면에서의 압력측정은 특히 관형의 경우 압력구멍의 존자가 불가 피하다. 압력구멍에 의한 오차에 대한 이론적인 고찰이 있었지만 사용된 몇가지 가정이 실 험적인 과찰과 일치하지 않아 이들 이론에 대한 강한 의문을 제기하고 한다. 한편 실험적인 결과는 묽은 고분자 용액인 경우 측정압력에 대한 상대적인 압력구멍 오차가 무시할 수 없 을 정도로 크다. 압력구멍 오차는 압력구멍의 크기, Reynolds 수 (점성) 및 Weissenberg 수 (탄성)의 함수로 나타나고 있다. 그러나 농도가 비교적 높은 고분자 용액이나 용융체는 상대 적으로 무시할 수 있을 정도의 압력구멍 오차를 나타낸다.

The purpose of this study was to identify the effectiveness of oral care protocol including individual oral care education, cryotherapy and benzydamine gargling on oral cavity status and self-care performance in solid cancer patients receiving chemotherapy. Thirty-one patients were enrolled by convenience sampling in this study and allocated to control (n=18) and experimental group (n=13). In the intervention group, individual oral care education, oral cryotherapy and benzydamine gargling were applied, while the control group received pre-existed oral care. Oral cavity status and self-oral care behavior were measured in five periods. The data were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney test, Friedman test, and Chi-square test. There was no significant difference in oral cavity status between the groups. But the two groups showed the poorest oral cavity status on $14^{th}$ day. Self-care behavior was significantly higher in the intervention group than the control group. This effect had maintained for 4months after completion of study. The results showed that individual oral care education by oncology nurse is effective to encourage patients to do self-care behavior and a further study is needed to explore the effect of cryotherapy and benzydamine gargling on oral cavity status of patient with solid tumor.

Donor airway ischemia is a significant problem after tracheal replacement with homograft or lung transplantation, Several factors such as omentopexy, heparin, PGl2 and fibroblast growth factor, have been shown to induce angiogenesis in vitro and in vivo. This study was designed to investigate whether omentopexy and basic flbroblast growth factor can enhance rabbit tracheal revascularization and epithelial regeneration, Three different experiments were performed with New Zealand white rabbit. In group I(n= 15 control group), only coNical tracheal autotransplantation was done. In group II(n= 15), cervical tracheal autotransplantation with omentopexy was done through subcutaneous route. In group III(n= 15), cervical tracheal autotransplantation was done and lug basic flbroblast growth factor was applied. After 3, 7 and 14 days, the animals were sacrificed. The extent of revascularization was investigated by means of uptake of the human serum albumin labelled with 99m technetium, and epithelial regeneration were assessed by means of light microscope. In the group investigated at day 3, there was statistically significant high tracheal revascularization in group III(p<0.05), but no difference at 7 and 14 days. And epithelial regenerations at day 3 were better in group III(p<0.05), and at day 7 in group II and III. But there was no difference at day 14. We concluded that b-FGF can enhance the revascularization and epithelial regeneration of the tracheal autograft especially in early phase.

Objectives: This study is an explorative study for developing an instrument to measure habitual physical activity level of school-aged children. Methods: HPAQ-S consists of 41 items and a self-reported 5-day recall instrument designed to assess habitual physical activity level for school-aged children. For the validity and reliability test, a sample consisted of 28 children, aged 10-11 years old. Results: 41 question items showed an acceptable internal consistency (cronbach's alpha=.89). A significant positive correlation with the pedometer results (r=.69, p<.001) and with Borg's questionnaire (r=.76, p<.001) support the validity of HPAQ-S. Conclusion: HPAQ-S may be more useful for measuring habitual physical activity level of elementary school-aged children in large populations.

We proposes a new approach for testing the self visual-acuity by using the KS standard optotype. The proposed system provides their hand-gesture recognition method for the convenient response of subjects in the visual acuity measurement. Also, this system can measure a visual-acuity that excludes the examiner's subjective judgement or the subject's memorized guess, because of presenting a random optotype automatically by computer without a examiner. Especially, Our system guarantees the reliability by using the KS standard optotype and its presentation(KS P ISO 8596), which is defined by the Korea Standards Association in 2006. And the database management function of our system can provide the visual-acuity data to the EMR client easily. As a result, Our system shows the 98% consistency in the limit of the ${\pm}1$ visual-acuity level error by comparing the visual-acuity chart test.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate curing degree of three dual-cure resin cements with the elapsed time in self-cure and dual-cure mode by means of the repeated measure of micro-hardness. Materials and Methods: Two dual-cure self-adhesive resin cements studied were Maxcem Elite (Kerr), Rely-X Unicem (3M ESPE) and one conventional dual-cure resin cement was Rely-X ARC resin cement (3M ESPE). Twenty specimens for each cements were made in Teflon mould and divided equally by self-cure and dual-cure mode and left in dark, $36^{\circ}C$, 100% relative humidity conditional-micro-hardness was measured at 10 min, 30 min, 1 hr, 3 hr, 6 hr, 12 hr and 24 hr after baseline. The results of micro-hardness value were statistically analyzed using independent samples t-test and one-way ANOVA with multiple comparisons using Scheffe's test. Results: The micro-hardness values were increased with time in every test groups. Dual-cure mode obtained higher micro-hardness value than self-cure mode except after one hour of Maxcem. Self-cured Rely-X Unicem showed lowest value and dual-cured Rely-X Unicem showed highest value in every measuring time. Conclusions: Sufficient light curing to dual-cure resin cements should provided for achieve maximum curing.

This study was aimed to develop an instrument for real-time measurement of fluid conductance and to investigate the hydrodynamics of dentinal fluid. The instrument consisted of three parts; (1) a glass capillary and a photo sensor for detection of fluid movement, (2) a servo-motor, a lead screw and a ball nut for tracking of fluid movement, (3) a rotary encoder and software for data processing. To observe the blocking effect of dentinal fluid movement, oxalate gel and self-etch adhesive agent were used. BisBlock (Bisco) and Clearfil SE Bond (Kuraray) were applied to the occlusal dentin surface of extracted human teeth. Using this new device, the fluid movement was measured and compared between before and after each agent was applied. The instrument was able to measure dentinal fluid movement with a high resolution (0.196 nL) and the flow occurred with a rate of 0.84 to 15.2 nL/s before treatment. After BisBlock or Clearfil SE Bond was used, the fluid movement was decreased by 39.8 to 89.6%.
