Microstructure and magnetic properties of Sm-Co sintered magnet were investigated with the variation of Zr content and their solution treatment and aging temperatures. The fraction of eutectic structure and the size of eutectic area decreased with increasing x value of cast Sm(C $O_{.688-x}$F $e_{.242}$C $u_{.07}$Z $r_{x}$)$_{7.404}$ alloys. On the other hand, x=0.022 ingot had finer dendritic structure compared to the other alloys. The sintered magnet of Sm(C $O_{.688-x}$F $e_{.242}$C $u_{.07}$Z $r_{x}$)$_{7.404}$ had well defined cell structure which is composed of cell boundary Sm $Co_{5}$ and cell interior S $m_2$Co/ssub 17/ phase. Cell boundary Sm $Co_{5}$ phase has 20nm thickness and its relative angle was 120$^{\circ}$ in x=0.018 and 0.022 alloys. Cell size was decreased with increasing Zr contents. But, x=0.026 alloy has diffuse cell boundary and irregular shape compared to x=0.022 and 0.018 alloys. Maximum value of coercive force and maximum energy Product were obtained from x=0.022 alloys. Optimum solution treatment temperature of Sm(C $O_{.688-x}$F $e_{.242}$C $u_{.07}$Z $r_{x}$)$_{7.404}$ alloy was 1170 $^{\circ}C$ and 1st aging temperature of two step aging process for higher coercivity was 850 $^{\circ}C$.

This study aims to figure out the effects of dental hygienists' professionalism and self-efficacy on job satisfaction using structural equations. This research conducted a survey to 616 study subjects. According to the analysis using SPSSWIN 18.0 and AMOS 20, the results are as follows : 1. It was shown that the dental hygienists' professionalism gained 3.34 points, self-efficacy was 3.76 points, and job satisfaction received 3.36 points. 2. It was found that as their age was higher, educational degree was higher, they were married, and working experience was more, their professionalism, self-efficacy, and job satisfaction were higher, which showed statistically significant difference. 3. Regarding the study model, there was positive effect as the correlation coefficient of professionalism and self efficacy was .69, that of professionalism and job satisfaction was .33, that of self-efficacy and job satisfaction was .59. In other words, there was correlation between professionalism and self-efficacy. When self-efficacy was higher than professionalism, job satisfaction also increased. Job satisfaction is affected by various environments within an organization and each individual's internal factors. The reason why job satisfaction is important is that along with the medical service quality and productivity, it is also associated with dental hygienists' individual life quality. In order to cope with this changeful time, it is needed for an organization to make efforts for change to enhance dental hygienists' job satisfaction, and also it is necessary to make endeavors so that dental hygienists can have confidence in their job and their professionalism and self-efficacy can be improved.

Purpose: To suggest an accurate diagnosis and treatment of infiltrating intramuscular lipoma by analysis of the clinical, biological, radiological and pathological features. Materials & Methods: 20 patients who treated at our hospital for infiltrating intramuscular lipoma from 1998. to 2001 were selected for this study. Mean age was 45.8 years old. Four were male and eight female. All cases were checked preoperative radiographs, MRI and diagnosed by biopsy. The methods of surgical treatment included excision of tumor and peripheral tissue. We assessed the recurrence by follow up. Results: Tumors located in upper limbs 5 cases, lower limbs 3 cases, abdomen 3 cases, gluteal region 1 case. In preoperative radiographs, infiltrating intramuscular type were 7 cases. In 11 cases, tumors were completely excied with peripheral tissue. 1 cases was incompletely excised because it was very huge mass and infiltrated lung. Encapsulated tumors were 3cases and uncapsulated tumors 9 cases. There were no recurrence excepts 1 case that was infiltrated lung. Conclusion: Infiltrating intramuscular lipoma was wrongly diagnosed as well differentiated liposarcoma. To increase the rate of correct diagnosis, preoperative radiographs, MRI and pathologic diagnosis were performed. Careful wide excision is necessary to prevent the recurrence.

Desmoplastic fibroma of bone is an extremely rare tumor that was first described by Jaffe in 1958. It histologically resembles the desmoid tumor of soft tissue. It is known as locally aggressive tumor but we experienced definitely benign and resembling simple bone cyst radiographically. We report a case of desmoplastic fibroma of bone and it should be included in the differential diagnosis list of any lytic bone lesion. The radiograph, MR imaging features, radiological and pathological differential diagnosis of the case are described, and literatures are reviewed.

This study examined the mediating effects of social capital between transformational leadership and organizational commitment in hospitals nurses'. The survey was conducted with 244 nurses working in a general hospital. The data was collected with the transformational leadership, social capital and organizational commitment and analyzed using the SPSS/WIN 21.0 and Amos 18.0. A positive relationship was observed between transformational leadership, social capital, and organizational commitment; social capital had a partial mediating effect of a transformational leadership and organizational commitment. To increase the organizational commitment, mediating between the head nurse' transformational leadership and social capital is recommended.

The artifacts in sonography is not always harmful. Sometimes it is beneficial for the evaluation of the water contents of the soft tissue and estimating the degree of inflammation and character of the regenerated tissue indirectly using artifacts such as acoustic shadowing and the enhanced transmission. It can also be useful to evaluate the possibility of aspiration of the calcifies masses by knowing of the contents of the water among them. Unlike the MRI it is useful to get real time informations with low cost in diagnosis and treatment of the soft tissue disease usinf artifacts in sonography.

To evaluate the potential value of $^1H$ Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) for detecting and characterizing invasive ductal carcinoma of breast. We conducted $^1H$ Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), using a 3.0T MR scanner, on 40 patients who were histologically diagnosed to have invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC); tumor areas of the patients were designated as experimental samples, and non-tumor areas as control samples. The peak at 3.2 ppm is characteristically intense and observed in 34 cases of the total 40 invasive ductal carcinoma (sensitivity 86.2%; specificity 100%; positive predictive value 100%; negative predictive value 60%). In constrast peak at 1.3 ppm is characteristically intense and observed in normal breast (sensitivity 86.2%; specificity 100%; positive predictive value 100%; negative predictive value 60%). The study shows that $^1H$ MRS can effectively discriminate invasive ductal carcinoma from normal breast in most cases. It also demonstrates the feasibility of localized in vivo $^1H$ MRS technique as a new diagnostic modality in the detection of breast tumor.

This study has three primary purposes, firstly to identify how leader's personal characters influence to his/her transformational leadership, secondly to find how transformational leadership influences to innovative behavior, finally to explore how organizational cultures moderate between transformational leadership and innovative behavior. The first part of the study, based on literature study on transformational leadership, provides insight into what are antecedents, moderators and dependent variable in transformational leadership. Firstly, leader's personal characters are selected as antecedent variables such as extroversion and self-efficacy. Secondly, innovative behavior is introduced as a dependent variable. Thirdly, two types of organizational culture are considered as moderators between leader's personal character and leadership In this study, a comprehensive research model and hypothesis were empirically tested based on data from three types of questionnaires involving 663 employees in Korean organizations. In order to test the hypotheses, we have used Structural Equations Model (SEM) from AMOS7.0. In this analysis, we have employed raw data as it is instead of correlation matrix or covariance matrix. We have tested hypotheses by examining the significance of each path of the model, and gone through the process of testing the goodness of fit of the model itself. The results of statistical analysis show the following. Firstly, one of leader's personalities, self-efficacy has positive effect on his/her transformational leadership, but extroversion does not have positive effect. Secondly, transformational leadership has positive effect on innovative behavior. Finally, there was not any cultural moderating effects between transformational leadership and innovative behavior.

A 12-year-old female mixed Chihuahua dog was referred because of acute blindness and progressive tetraparesis. Mutifocal lesions in the cerebrum were noted on brain magnetic resonance images and cerebrospinal fluid analysis showed monocytic pleocytosis. Based on these results, granulomatous meningoencephalitis (GME) was strongly suspected. Cerebral lesions were definitely diagnosed as GME based on histopathological findings and positive results of immunohistological stains of brain with T-cell marker (CD3). This report describes the clinical findings, diagnostic imaging characteristics, and immunohistopathologic features of GME in an old dog. In addition, this case demonstrates that clinical signs of GME were mediated by perivascular infiltration of T lymphocytes and identification of causes in T cell-mediated inflammation should be further studied.
