삼킴 장애 환자는 뇌졸중, 치매, 외상성 뇌손상, 파킨슨병, 암이 주요 원인으로 급속히 증가하고 있다. 특히 고령화 사회가 되면서 더욱 삼킴 장애 환자는 늘어날 것으로 전망하고 있다. 고령 환자의 삼킴 이상의 진단을 위해 가장 많이 사용하고 있는 검사법으로는 비디오 조영 삼킴 검사(VFSS)이다. VFSS는 진단에 있어서 숙련된 전문의가 필요하기 때문에 대학병원 급에서 주로 시행하며, 고령 환자에게는 분석 결과를 상담받을 때까지 오랜 시간을 소요해야하는 문제점들이 있다. 본 논문에서는 삼킴 장애 진단을 위한 의료영상 관리 및 라벨링 시스템에 대해서 기술한다. 이를 구현하기 위해 서버에서 대용량 멀티프레임 영상을 성능 저하 없이 핸들링 하고 라벨링 데이터 생성을 위한 라벨링 툴을 구현하였다. 차후 라벨링 데이터를 생성하고 학습을 통하여 삼킴 장애 진단을 위한 인공지능 모델을 개발하고자 한다.

The number of patients with coronary artery disease and peripheral vascular disease are increasing, and the need of small diameter vessel is also increasing. We developed small diameter artificial vessel and experimented in vivo. We got allogenic valve from mongrel dogs, and removed all cells from the allogenic valve. Then, we seeded autologous bone marrow cells onto the decellularized scaffold. After implantation of artificial vessel into the canine carotid artery, we performed angiography regularly. In case of vessel occlusion or at 8 weeks after operation, we euthanized dogs, and retrieved the implanted artificial vessels. Control vessels were all occluded except one (which developed aneurysmal dilatation). But autologous cell seeded vascular graft were patent by 4 weeks in one, by 6 in one and by 8 weeks in two. Histologic examination of patent vessel revealed similar structure to native artery. Tissue-engineered vascular graft manufactured with decellularized allogenic matrix and autologous bone marrow cells showed that tissue engineered graft had similar structure to native artery.

In this paper, we proposed an improved ray tracing method with an amelioration of visible tree structure, a visible face determination method, and non-uniform random test point method. In a proposed visible tree structure, it reduces tree nodes by means of merging similar nodes. In a visible face determination method, it shows that a ray hit test with a packet ray method can reduce a test time. A ray tracing method involving with a packet ray hit test method can improve a tree construction time up to 3.3 times than a ray tracing method with a single ray hit test method. Furthermore, by seeding a non-uniform and random test point on a face, tree construction time is improved up to 1.11 times. Received powers from the proposed ray tracing results and measured results have good agreement with 1.9 dB RMS error.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of learner-centered instructions using instructional materials which are developed in the light of constructivism and implementing practices of the instruction. According to the result of Recall Test, experimental group and comparing group have not statistically meaningful difference. However, in the result of Generation Tests which include the contents not dealt with during the experiment treatments, the two groups have statistically meaningful difference. It can be drawn from the result that students who take learner-centered instruction are in a good readiness for learning of the contents which will be addressed in future.

The communication signal for quick cut-off specification is defined as "design to support fast cut-off requirements of all applicable photovoltaic(PV) systems" in NEC 2014, NEC 2017 or the corresponding UL standard regardless of the system configuration. On the other hand, if you look at the domestic regulations related to new and renewable energy, the standards, regulations, and guidelines set by each institution are general, or only the parts necessary for the institution are being established and operated. There are many insufficient points to apply these things to photovoltaic facilities, and there are cases where excessive facilities are installed according to the design, inspection standards of supervisors and inspection agencies, and the skill level of inspectors. The internationally accepted IEC standards deal with various facility standards in detail. In each European country, there are separate facility regulations based on IEC. In particular, the performance and safety of devices are dealt with in detail, and in the case of 'NEC Article 690' applied in North America such as the United States, each item is described in detail. Therefore, in this paper, we will look at the details of the PV shutdown technology that is currently used and applied internationally.

Purpose : The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical and histological results of the osteoarthritic patients who had second look arthroscopy after microfracture surgery. Materials and Methods : From Oct. 1997 to Dec. 1998, 46 patients, 48 knees were treated by microfracture technique. In the 22 patients, 24 knees, 'second-look' arthroscopies and biopsies were performed at 6 months following microfracture. Three patients were men and 19 patients were women. Average age of the patients were 58 years (range, 40-75 years). The average follow up period was 12 months(7-20 months). We analysed clinical results according to the nine-point scale. Also we observed type II collagen formation with immunohistochemical staining. Results : Clinical results were excellent in 83% and good in 17%. Among the 24 knees, more than 80% areas of chondral defect were covered with regenerated cartilage in 21 knees. Histologically, the regenerated tissue appears to be a hybrid of hyaline cartilage and fibrocartilage. Regenerated cartilage contains variable amount of type II collagen with immunohistochemical staining. Conclusion : Most of the patients had significant improvement clinically. 'Second-look' showed that the chondral defect areas were covered with newly grown grayish white tissue. Microfracture in the full thickness chondral defect provides and enriched environment for cartilaginous tissue regeneration.

Peripheral nerve injuries are a commonly encountered clinical problem and often result in severe functional deficits. In the present study, the effects of treadmill exercise on neurotrophin expressions and functional recovery following sciatic crushed nerve injury were investigated. Animals were randomly assigned into four groups: the sciatic nerve injury group, the sciatic nerve injury and 3-day-exercise, the sciatic nerve injury and 7-days-exercise, and the sciatic nerve injury and 14-days-exercise groups. Sciatic nerve injury was caused by crushing the right sciatic nerve for 30 s using a surgical clip. A the light-exercise was applied to each of the exercise group over the respective number of days. In the present results, we identified enhanced axonal re-growth in the distal stump of the sciatic nerve 3-14 days after crush injury with treadmill training. Dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neuron when cultured from animals with nerve injury and treadmill training showed more enhanced neurite outgrowth than that of sedentary animals. Nerve growth factor (NGF) protein levels in low-intensity treadmill training group were highly induced in the injured sciatic nerves 3, 7 and 14 days after injury compared with sedentary group, and brain-derived neurotrophin factor (BDNF) protein levels in treadmill exercise group were highly induced in the injured sciatic nerve 3 days after injury compared with sedentary group. Then, treadmill exercise increased neurotrophic factors induced in the regenerating nerves. We further demonstrate that motor functional recovery after sciatic nerve injury was promoted by treadmill exercise. Thus, the present data provide a new evidence that treadmill exercise enhanced neurotrophins expression and axonal regeneration after sciatic nerve injury in rats.

Physicochemical properties of instant rice prepared by hot-air drying, alcohol dehydration and freeze-hot air drying were studied. Freeze-hot air drying rice showed the fastest rehydration rate as well as the most desirable textural characteristics. Sensory evaluation suggested that the freeze-hot air drying rice also had more desirable taste, flavor and texture. However, color was more desirable in alcohol dehydrated rice.

초음파 진단장치는 X선 촬영과 달리 인체에 해를 주지 않고 계속적으로 장시간 관 찰할 수 있고 실시간으로 영상을 볼 수 있으며, 또 타장비에 비해 가격이 저렴하고 소형이 라는 장점이 있다. 현재는 이 영상들을 대용량 저장매체에 저장되어 컴퓨터를 통해 재생하 여 볼 수 있게 되었다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 막대한 양의 영상데이터를 검색하기 위한 새 로운 검색방법을 제시한다. 제안하는 검색방법은 검색을 원하는 정지화상의 컬러이미지를 제시하면 시스템이 이를 자동으로 분석하여 이미지 데이터베이스에 저장된 유사한 이미지데 이터들과 관련된 정보들을 질의결과로 나타내어 쉽게 검색하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 사용자 가 제시한 정지화상을 Bitmap으로 구성하고, Bitmap전체의 비디오 메모리에서 검색할 부분 영역을 검색대상으로 설정한다. 이 값을 key값으로 우선적으로 여기에 원하는 유사비를 설 정한 후 전체 동화상의 각 프레임에서 추출한 비디오 메모리 데이터와 검색 화면의 비디오 메모리를 Pixel별로 비교하여, 사용자가 원하는 영상데이터의 위치point 값과 유사비율값을 보관한다. point값으로 보관된 것을 유사비율에 따라 우선 순위를 정하여 데이터베이스에 보 관하고 이 보관된 후보 이미지들을 순위별로 화면에 나타내어 사용자가 원하는 이미지데이 터를 쉽고 빠르게 검색할 수 있었다.
