The authors presented the human Thelaziasis case in Korea, with the review of the literatures. The patient was 60-year-old farmer who had lived in Chunchoun since birth. He complained lacrimation and foreign body sensation of the left eye. Total 10 worms, appeared to be slender milky-white nematodes, were extracted from the left upper conjuctival sac by authors. Micrograph morphological features are as follows： Three male worms are 8.83∼9.32 mm in length, 0.24∼0.25 mm in width, 259∼263 cuticular striations per mm, and showing cloaca with spicules. seven female worms are 11.91∼12.77 mm in length, 0.25∼0.26 mm in width, 259∼289 cuticular striations per mm, and vulva opening locating anterior to esophago-intestinal junction. From the above findings, these nematodes were confirmed as Thelazia callipaeda Railliet and Henry, 1910.

In this study, a training program was conducted to improve the performance of the basic movement of the basket-to-handstand mount. After completion of the training program, the kinematic comparison of the before and after effects were investigated to provide scientific data about this technique. It is recommended that during P1, the center of body mass at the back should push the hip joint to flex quickly, and the shoulder joint should be maintained at a maximum angle. During P2, the body's center of mass must be accelerated so as to create enough momentum to rise efficiently for this, quick extension of both the hip and the shoulder is required. For safety during P3, it is advised that the speed upwards must be increased and that the hands, shoulders, and hip joint must be extended, as in the posture of a handstand. These results stress to coaches the importance of the bodies speed during the ascent in the motion.

Angular Deviation(AD) on transparency applied to TA-50 Aircraft deteriorates armament system's accuracy because it makes a difference in between actual and theoretical targets. In order to increase accuracy, therefore, TA-50 Aircraft measures AD on transparency and provide the measured values for the integrated mission display computer as a type of AD coefficients. This makes AD revised so that pilots can accurately see the actual target on their head-up display. In order to implement such mechanism into a real field, we develop a new device and system automatically measuring AD for the first time. We also deal with basic concept including AD induction formula as well as operating systems. As a consequence of testing the accuracy and precision for verifying reliability of the system, we got satisfactory results. In specific, the accuracy was within the resultant criterion of 1%. The precision was also satisfied with respect to the whole criteria. The system developed through this research is qualified as a military standard equipment for transparency of the canopy.

Diagnostic radiology and conservative management for S75 patient with L1 lumbar fracture by traffic accidents were discussed with references, and then the obtained results were as follows ; 1. Wedging compression fractures with 10% deformity was confirmed at anterior vertebral body of L1 lumbar spine through lateral plain X-ray film. 2. Irregular bony fractures were observed at anterior vertebral body of L1 lumbar spine by CT scans, anatomically T12-L1 sites showed highly frequency of injuries, Denis's fracture type was classified as multiple compression fracture at anterior column without abnormal middle and posterior column, also no Cobb's angle, and then Frankel's neurological classification was E grade. 3. Orthopaedic treatments were performed with conservative methods. With rest on the bed, anti-in-flammatory medication, electrolyte and nutritional solution, the pain diminished. 4. After 3 weeks, rehabilitation was worked with putting on polyethylene back corset, although pains remained slightly until after 8 weeks, thereafter the spine showed gradually stability.

In Xenopus laevis the cranial myotomes, W, X, Y and Z represent transient embry-specific structures since they undergo reduction" in the later stage of development. An extensive set of expertmental studies was undertaken in order to discriminate whether the cranial myotomes perform a programmed autonomous death or reduction" by the influence from surrounding tissue such as otic vesicle. Removal of the neighboring otic vesicle did not affect WXYZ degeneration. Grafting the otic vesicle to novel site along the somite file did not induce local myotome degenration. When anterior-most somitic primordia were relocated to the trunk somite region, they underwent reduction eventually. Likewise, with the transplantation of posterior somite forming region into the anterior, autonomous differentiation pafferns were observed. And the cullture of presumptive somitic tissue revealed that WXYZ might degnerate like in vivo. It is therefore concluded that the cranial myotomes of Xenopus laevis exhibit an autonomous cell death during later embryogenesis.yogenesis.

Purpose: The results of meniscal repair of peripheral tear of meniscus with meniscal arrow was analysed. Materials and Methods: Peripheral tears of posterior 1/2 of menisci of 25 cases including 18medial, 6 lateral and 1 both menisci were repaired with meniscal arrows. One to six meniscal arrows were used for each meniscus according to the length of tears. Concurrent tears of ACL were noted in14 cases. The follow-up period was 3.4 years in average. The findings of physical examination and MRI which were taken once or twice in 1$\~$5 years after operation were evaluated. Results: Healing of the tear was achieved in all cases. However, a vertical longitudinal tear of body occurred in two medial menisci along the line of insertion of arrows. An arrow migrated subcuta-neously in two cases, respectively. Conclusions: The meniscal arrow was effective in the treatment of the peripheral tear of menicus. However, there was a chance of occurrence of longitudinal tear of the meniscus in case of insertion of arrows in a row. Migration of the arrow may occur.

The folded monopole antenna for applying mobile communications equipment and wireless devices is presented in this paper. By using the coplanar waveguide feed the operating bandwidth has improved. In addition, each individual resonant elements has occurred different capacitance through asymmetrical left and right ground planes; therefore, the bandwidth has kept and the impedance matching has stabilized. By measurement results, the impedance bandwidth under VSWR< 2.5:1 are $824{\sim}890$ MHz and the $1,500{\sim}2,170$ MHz, also radiation patterns has omni-directional characteristics. The maximum gains of the proposed antenna are 5.52, 0.64, 3.00, 0.94 and 1.85 dBi at 850, 1,575, 1,790, 1,930 and 2,050 MHz respectively. The proposed antenna will be adapted to the internal antenna of the mobile communication devices.

Excessive teeth wear can lead to reduced chewing efficiency, occlusal plane collapse, and facial changes. Full mouth rehabilitation with a change in vertical dimension may cause pain in the temporomandibular joint, masticatory muscle and teeth, so an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan is required. In this case, a 69-year-old man had excessive teeth wear with a loss of posterior support. We evaluated the degree of adaptation to the increased vertical dimension with the removable occlusal splint and provisional restoration. We report this case because the treatment result has been functionally and aesthetically satisfactory by providing stable anterior guidance, proper posterior teeth disclusion, and even contact of all teeth in centric occlusion.

This case study is concerned with the project of the explosive demolition for the KOGAS office building located in Bundang district in Seongnam city. Since the office building was a kind of long-span beam structures, a mechanical demolition method using jacking support systems was considered in the beginning of the project. With consideration of the excessive reinforcement cost, uncertainty of safety, and prolonged construction period, however, the original plan was later changed to use an explosive demolition method. For the purpose of protecting nearby buildings and facilities during the collapse process, the explosive initiation sequence was elaborately designed to bring down the building structure towards its front left corner. A total of over 550 electronic detonators (Unitronic 600) was used to sequentially initiate the explosives installed at appropriate columns in the first, second, and fifth floors. To diminish dust production, water bags of small and large sizes were respectively installed at each column and on the floors to be blasted. As such, every effort was exercised to mitigate overall noise, dust, and shock vibrations that could be generated during the explosive demolition process for the office building.

Braille guide block of sidewalk is an essential facility for independent walking of the blind. The blind walks while checking the braile guide blocks with white cane and sense of sole. When they leave the braile area, they face difficulties until they find the braile guide blocks again. In this paper, we propose an algorithm that guides the walking of the blind by determining whether they follows the braille guide blocks safely. For this purpose, the slope of the braille block is selected as a feature and a 3-line detector is introduced. Also the slopes are stabilized using spatial filtering to deal with breaks or junctions of the braille block during the progress and temporal filtering to cope with ego-motion of the blind. Through simulations using a dataset obtained from the real sidewalks and indoors, it can be shown that the proposed algorithm can successfully estimate the walking direction and determine whether the blind is out of the braille guide block area.
