In this study, change of body surface temperature was measured using Digital Infrared Thermographic Imaging(DITI) to check muscle fatigue recovery & muscle pain control by magnetic stimulations. For clinical trials, subjects were divided into 3 groups : non stimulation group(NSG), electrical stimulation group(ESG) and micro magnetic stimulation group(MSG). In result, temperature differences between left and right arm surfaces were measured as much as $0.86{\pm}0.43^{\circ}C$(n=96) after the exercise, $0.78{\pm}0.12^{\circ}C$ after the electrical stimulation and $0.1{\pm}0.39^{\circ}C$ after the micro magnetic stimulation. Also after 3days, temperature differences between left and right arm surfaces were measured as much as $0.3{\pm}0.14^{\circ}C$ in the NSG, $0.05{\pm}0.21^{\circ}C$ in the ESG and $0.03{\pm}0.21^{\circ}C$ in the MSG. These data showed that the lowest temperature difference between left/right body surface was measured in MSG.

환형 전자 빔이 진행됨에 따라 표면파의 전단 유동에 의해 발생 및 진행되는 diocotron instability(다이오코트론 불안정성)를 안정시키기 위해, 나선형 자기장이 인가된 상황을 2차원 PIC 시뮬레이션을 통해 구현하고 그 효과에 대한 조사가 수행되었다. 나선형 자기장은 2차원 단면 상에서 회전하는 자기장으로 표현되었고, 이에 대해서 자기장이 회전하는 각도와 회전 주기, 회전 방향을 변수로 하여 그 효과를 나타내었다. 결과적으로, 자기장이 회전 하는 방향과 전자 빔이 회전하는 방향이 반대가 되었을 때, diocotron instability가 진정되는 효과를 얻었으며 이는 불안정성의 근원인 전단 유동을 완화시킴으로써 얻어진 결과임이 확인되었다. 이 때, 동반되는 밀도 분산 현상에 대해서도 고려가 되었고, 결론적으로 인가되는 나선형 자기장에 대하여 가장 적절한 조건에 대한 조사가 수행되었다.

Electron spin resonance (ESR) is one of an experimental choice for studying magnetic materials that have one or more unpaired electrons. ESR spectroscopy finds its wide applications in branches of science encompassing physics, chemistry, biology, medicine and quantum computation. In this brief review we introduce a basic principle of ESR and describe how to extract information on g-factor, spin and orbital states from the ESR spectral parameters. Finally, several examples are discussed with an intention to have a practical feeling of what ESR can do in magnetism.

We have studied the temperature dependence of the $^{1}H$ NMR spin-lattice relaxation for the impure $CuF_{2}.2H_{2}O$ over a temperature range from 77 K to room temperature. We find that the remperature dependence of the $^{1}H$ spin-lattice relaxation is dominated by the eletron spin-flip and the Raman process of eletron spin-lattice relaxation. The electron spin-flip exchange energy was calculated to be $1.8(\pm0.04)$ K.

In this paper, the sensing unit of a non-invasive blood glucose sensor for home users, using a magneto-resonance absorption method, have been designed and manufactured. The sensor is capable of non-invasively determining blood glucose levels through measuring the 1H spin-lattice relaxation time in human body, The comparison of initial models, with different dimensions and shapes, for the sensing unit has led us to select the materials of the final model, which has adequate size and weight for home use. Through the design optimization using the FEM model, the dimension of final model has been determined to satisfy the required strength and uniformity of the magnetic field in the detecting area.

A 20 MHz pulsed NMR systems was employed to discriminate the geographical origin of soybeans and black beans (yak-kong) from Korea and foreign countries. Crude fat contents measured by soxhlet method were significantly (p<0.05) different between domestic and imported soybeans. Moisture and crude protein contents, measured by AOAC, were significantly different between domestic and imported black beans. In soybeans, values by solid fat content method and Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill (CPMG) method using 20 MHz pulsed NMR showed the significant difference among soybeans from various the geographical origins. In black beans (yak-kong), NMR values measured by NMR except $T_1$ SR pulse sequence revealed the significant difference by the geographical origins. The habitat of soybeans and black beans could be identified by canonical discriminant analysis of chemical composition with $70{\sim}91.7\;%$ accuracy. Low field NMR data followed by discriminant analysis, however, granted the 100% of accuracy for classification of soybeans.

Effects of steel-skeletons on the geomagnetic distribution in building have been studied through the simulation and measurement of geomagnetic distribution at floor surface. Geomagnetic distribution was simulated by the finite element method, and the vertical component Z of geomagnetic field on the floor surface was measured with the fluxgate-type magnetometer. Horizontal steel-skeletons have a little effect on the Z distribution, but vertical skeletons disturb severely the Z distribution and result in the localized geomagnetic disturbance. This disturbance becomes weakened by the bypassing soft-magnetic plate and/or floor.

This research is to study presenteeism of members of a organization. It factually verifies how the job stress perceived by the members affect on presenteeism and examines factors to alleviate presenteeism, in addition, tests moderating effects based on the core self-evaluations and team climate. Research results reveal, first of all, that influencing relationship which job stress increases presenteeism exists. Second, core self-evaluations control the relationship between job stress and presenteeism, which means the stronger subconscious to oneself is the more it relieve the relationship between job stress and presenteeism. Third, team climate partially contolled the relationship between job stress and presenteeism. Atmosphere with clearer performance responsibility has better controlling effect to alleviate the relationship between job stress and presenteeism. Within the team climate, subordinate variables determine the effect on the presenteeism relationship. Significances and limitations of this research was discussed at the last.

This pilot study evaluated the reach and efficacy of nurse training program to provide palliative care to patients with advanced chronic diseases. A mixed method was used (an one-group pre-post research design and a group interview). To examine the changes in knowledge, attitude and self-efficacy, paired t-test were used with SPSS 21.0. To obtain pivoting information in real settings, a content analysis was conducted in the data obtaining from a group interview. There were significant improvements on knowledge and self-efficacy scores after the program. Additionally, high retention rate and program satisfaction were found in the participants while recruitment strategies, especially nurses working for tertiary hospitals, need to be modified in future research. A full-fledged research is warranted to find effective strategies to implement and disseminate the program for nurses working in diverse settings.

Hospice and palliative care in Taiwan has been growing continuously. The 2015 Quality of Death index, as rated by the Economist Intelligence Unit, ranked Taiwan first among Asian countries and sixth in the world. In this review article, we highlight three particular areas that might have contributed to this success; the laws and regulations, spiritual care and research network. Finally, we discuss the future challenges and prospects for Taiwanese encounters. A systemic review was conducted with the keywords "hospice palliative care Taiwan" using PubMed. The passing of the "Natural Death Act" in 2000 set the example and established a landmark for patient autonomy in Asia; it guarantees the patient's right to request that medical staff do not resuscitate (DNR) them and to reject other futile medical treatments at the end of their life, thus reflecting the importance of palliative care from the policy perspective. In 2015, Taiwan passed another pioneering law entitled the "Patient Autonomy Act". This law states that a patient may decline medical treatment according to his/her own will. Taiwanese indigenous spiritual care was launched in 2000. It requires a Buddhist Chaplain to successfully complete a training program consisting of lectures, as well as bedside practicum before applying Buddhist practices to end-of-life care. The Japan-Korea-Taiwan research network was established for the purpose of enabling collaborative research for the East-Asian collaborative cross-cultural Study to Elucidate the Dying process (EASED) cohort. With consensus from the government and society to make it a priority, hospice and palliative medicine in Taiwan has been growing steadily.
