In this study, we analyzed the difference in survival rates of those subject to electronic supervision of sex crimes based on the tracking of the period of recidivism and whether they were recidivism, and wanted to confirm the ability of the criminal record to predict recidivism. The criteria for recidivism were defined as cases where a conviction was confirmed due to a criminal case that occurred during the execution of electronic monitoring, and the date of recidivism was the date of occurrence of a case that was confirmed guilty. A total of 122 re-offenders were used in the analysis, and all of them were charged with electronic supervision for committing sex crimes. Studies have confirmed that the subjects commit the most recidivism within three years. In addition, in this study, the difference in survival rate between groups was analyzed after classifying mixed and sex recidivism cases. The number of members was 88 for the mixed recidivism group and 34 for the sex recidivism group. The analysis confirmed that both groups had the most recidivism within three years. There was a slight difference between the survival rate of the mixed recidivism group and the survival rate of the sex recidivism group. So the Log Rank Test and the Generalized Wilcoxon Test were conducted, but no statistically significant differences were identified(Wilcoxon statistic = 2.326, df = 1, p = .13, Log Rank = 1.345, df = 1, p = .25). Next, a Cox Regression analysis was performed to confirm the ability of the criminal record to predict recidivism. As a result, the number of criminal records(sex offense, violent crime) have been confirmed to be a good predictor of recidivism(X²=27.33, df=1, p< .001). As a result, the recidivism rate is gradually decreasing due to the implementation of the electronic monitoring. However, the duration of recidivism required by sex offenders in high-risk groups was found to be rather short. Currently, security measures against felons are being strengthened, so it is necessary to select high-risk groups. Therefore, based on the related studies, the characteristics of high-risk groups and the results of recidivism studies will be used as a basis for disposal within the criminal justice system, which will play a major role in granting objectivity.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the deterrence effect of traffic safety education on DWI(Driving While Intoxicated) offenders which is proposed as a incentive policy measure. For the analysis, 3512 drivers whose licenses were suspended due to DWI offence within the jurisdiction of Seongnam city in 2003, and whose driving behavior were traced for 5 years are collected. MOEs used in the study are the number of repeated DWI offence and DWI abidance duration. The statistics of analysis of covariance are used to compare the deterrence effectiveness of traffic safety education by adjusted means between groups. The results show that compared to uneducated group, educated group reveals to make less number of repeated DWI offence with longer DWI abidance period The resulting statistic also shows that active participation in the discussion during the class is more effective than just giving lecture. The former way for education can further reduce the repeated DWI by 12% and increase DWI abidance duration by 5.7% than the latter.

The existing electronic tagging system traces the location of a sex offender through communicating with GPS satellites and mobile phone base stations in order to prevent repeated crimes. However, the GPS satellite communication method does not work well in the interiors of downtown buildings or on the subways where it is difficult to receive satellite signals. In such cases, the location can be traced through communication with mobile phone base stations. But the distance between mobile phone base stations is several hundred meters, and as a result the margin of error for location tracing can be maximum of 2km in accuracy reduction. Take for example, if a kindergarten is located on the 2nd floor and a coffee shop and the sex offender are located on the 3rd floor in a 5-story building that is downtown, the existing electronic tagging system cannot trace the location of the sex offender as the GPS satellite communication does not work in the interior of the building and the exact floor that the sex offender is located on cannot be recognized through communication with mobile phone base stations. This occurrence is a big problem for the existing electronic tagging system, which is based on position recognition. Therefore, this study suggests a smart electronic tagging system that can monitor sex offenders by using a Ubiquitous Sensor Network in such extreme situations where position recognition is not possible.

A rupture of an innominate artery caused by blunt trauma is relatively rare because this artery is short and protected by the chest bony cage. This report describes a 25-year-old man who suffered a traffic accident, that resulted in an innominate artery rupture, which was detected by a chest computed tomogram and angiogram. This patient underwent urgent surgery through a right clavicular incision and median sternotomy without a cardiopulmonary bypass due to multiple injuries. An approximately 3 cm sized injury was found from the innominate artery to the proximal right subclavian artery and the origin of the common carotid artery. The injured lesion was repaired with a saphenous vein patch. After surgery, he was discharged from hospital without complications.

With the advancement of next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies, various genome browsers have been introduced. Because existing browsers focus on comparison of the genomic data of extant species, however, there is a need for a genome browser for ancestral genomes and their evolution. In this paper, we introduce a genome browser, AGB (Ancestral Genome Browser), that displays ancestral genome data reconstructed from existing species. With AGB, it is possible to trace genomic variations that occurred during evolution in a simple and intuitive way. We explain the capability of AGB in terms of visualizing ancestral genomic information and evolutionary genomic variations. AGB is now available at http://bioinfo.konkuk.ac.kr/genomebrowser/.

In this study, the fracture energy and displacement fields characteristics of particulate reinforced composite is evaluated. Wedge splitting test was performed at various temperatures. Fracture energy of material is calculated at room temperature, $-40^{\circ}C$ and $-60^{\circ}C$. Displacement and strain fields of specimen surface were visualized by using digital image correlation. The surface displacement fields of the specimens were analyzed by mark tracking method using digital image correlation. The results showed that, the fracture energy was decreased as temperature decreased. The surface displacement fields at room temperature were similar to there at $-40^{\circ}C$. The surface displacement fields at $-60^{\circ}C$ was significantly reduced because of the brittle behavior. The strain fields of the specimen surface decreased as temperature decreased form room temperature to $-60^{\circ}C$.

Background: Distal anastomosis using artificial vascular graft is difficult when luminal size mismatch occurred owing to severe occlusion of popliteal artery and its branches. So we reconstructed blood flow to ischemic lower limb by using autologous greater saphenous vein in situ graft (GSVISG) as vascular graft material. Material and Method: From July 2000 to July 2005, 26 patients treated using GSVISG. We analyzed clinical results retrospectively by chart review. Result: There was no in hospital or early postoperative death and 6 late deaths occurred during follow up period. Postoperative complications were 5 cases of early graft obstruction, 2 cases of wound dehiscence, 1 case of graft aneurysmal change, 1 case of seroma formation at inguinal wound and 1 case of graft injury during valvulotomy. Overall patency rate during follow up period was 69.3%. Conclusion: Greater saphenous vein in situ graft is acceptable vascular graft for arterial occlusive disease of lower extremity.

Purpose : To compare the subchondral fracture on plain radiography and MR image as a method for assessing osteonecrosis in Legg-Calve-Perthes(LCP) pateients. Materials and methods: We retrospetively reviewed 15 hip joint MR images and plain radiography which visualized subchondral fracture. With basis of the Salter-Thompson classification, extent of necrosis was graded group A to B, as follows; Group A = < 50%, B = > 50%. On PACS workstation, necrotic area of each MR image was measured to calculate the volume of necrotic portion: volume = necrotic area $\times$ slice thickness. Necrotic areas on MR images were graded group A to B and results were compared with that measured in Salter-Thompson classification. On follow up, bone resorption was measured and the extent was compared with subchondral fracture representing necrotic area and that on MR volume method respectively. Results : In 9 joints of 15 hip joints (60%), the degree of necrosis in Salter-Thompson classification on plain radiographs was different from that on MR volume method. Based on plain radiographs by Salter-Thompson classification, the degree of necrosis was overestimated in 6(67%) joints, and underestimated in 3(33%) joints compared with MR volume method. On follow up study, bone resorption was not correlated with necrotic extent of subchondral fracture and MR volume method. Conclusion : The extent of femoral head necrosis measured by subchondral fracture was different from that measured by MR and was not correlated with bone resorption on follow up. Therefore, usefulness of subchondral fracture as a prognostic factor may be limited.
