하천에서 식생은 자연적으로 존재하는 수생식물의 집단을 의미하기도 하지만 자연 저항체로서 하천의 평균 흐름을 교란하고 변화시킨다. 식생의 성장은 흐름 저항을 발생시켜 일시적으로 수위유량관계의 전이(shift)를 유발한다. 이러한 수위-유량관계의 전이는 식생의 성장 및 전도와 소멸로 발생하는 식생의 구조변화에 따라 측정 단면에 대한 평균유속의 변화를 발생시킨다. 본 연구에서는 식생의 구조변화에 따른 평균유속 특성의 변화를 사례를 통해 살펴보았다. 고령군(귀원교) 지점은 하천 좌우안 식생의 흐름 저항을 받아 측정 평균유속의 영향을 받는 지점으로, 식생 변화에 대한 모니터링 결과를 토대로 수리특성을 분석하여, 식생의 활착 및 전도에 따른 평균유속의 변화를 분석하였다. 고령군(귀원교) 지점의 수위-평균유속 관계는 식생의 활착 또는 전도에 따라 서로 다른 형태의 고리형태(loop)를 보이는 것으로 확인되었다. 식생이 활착 후 전도되면서 측정된 유속성과는 수위하강시 유속이 증가하는 역 고리형태(loop)를 보이는 것으로 관찰되었다. 식생이 전도된 이후의 측정성과는 수위가 상승함에 따라 유속이 증가하는 정상적인 수위-유속의 고리형태(loop)를 보인다.

Purpose: Brain metastases are present in approximately 10-16% of small cell lung cancer patients at diagnosis. Brain metastasis is an important clinical problem associated with increasing the survival rate, with a cumulative incidence of up to 80% in patients surviving 2 years. Prophylactic cranial irradiation(PCI) reduces the incidence of brain matastasis and may prolong survival in patients with limited small-cell lung cancer who achieved complete remission. This study was performed to analyze the incidence of brain metastasis, survival and clinical aspects after PCI in patients with limited small-cell lung cancer who achieved complete remission. Methods : Between 1989 and 1999, forty-two patients with limited small-cell lung cancer who achived achieved complete remission after therapy were enrolled into this study retrospectively. All patients received etoposide and cisplatin(VPP) alternating with cytoxan, adriamycin, and vincristine(CAV) every 3 weeks for at least 6 cycles initially. All patients received thoracic radiotherapy: concurrent(38.1%) and sequential(61.9%). All patients received late PCI. Results : Most patients(88.1%) were men, and the median age was 58 years. The median follow-up duration was 18.1 months. During the follow-up period, 57.1% of the patients developed relapse. The most frequent site of relapse was chest(35.7%), followed by brain(14.3%), liver(11.9%), adrenal gland(44%), and bone(2.2%). With the Kaplan-Meier method, the average disease-free interval was 1,090 days(median 305 days). The average time to development of brain relapse after PCI and other sites relapse(except brain) were 2,548 days and 1,395 days(median 460 days), respectively. The average overall survival was 1,233 days(median 634 days, 21.1 months), and 2-year survival rates was 41.7%. The average overall survival in the relapse group was 642 days(median 489 days) and in the no relapse group was 2,622 days(p<0.001). The average overall survival in the brain relapse group was 928 days(median 822 days) and in the no brain relapse group was 1,308 days(median 634 days)(p=0.772). In most patients(85.7%), relapse(except brain) or systemic disease was the usual cause of death. Brain matastasis was the cause of death in 14.3% of the cases. Conclusions : We may conclude that PCI reduces and delays brain metastasis in patients with limited small cell lung cancer who achieved complete remission. We found decreased survival in relapse group but, no significant survival difference was noted according to brain matastasis. And relapse(except brain) or systemic disease was the usual cause of death. In order to increase survival, new treatment strategies for control methods for relapse and systemic disease are required.

Farming activity was the second cause of forest fire following the carelessness. In this study, 74 forest fires caused by farming activity and waste burning in 2009 was investigated for analyzing ignition patterns. The main cause to bring about forest fire was the farming waste burning as 25 cases, burning of farming waste matter after product and household waste burning were the second causes as 19 cases. Landcovers which transfer flame from ignition point to forest were fallow field graveyard, field fruit farm, field levee fallow field. The average distance between ignition point and forest sleeve was 19 m, and the maximum distance was 130 m. The probability of forest fire ignition was high in the 100 m buffer zone from the forest sleeve that is the prohibition rule of fire use for forest fire prevention at the forest fire season.

Carcinoma of the axillary tail of Spence is a rare type of breast cancer that develops at a specific anatomical position in the breast, with an incidence of approximately 0.3%. It should be differentiated from axillary soft tissue tumor, axillary ectopic breast cancer, and lymph node metastases of breast and other primary cancers. Here, we report a case of carcinoma of the axillary tail of Spence in a 47-year-old patient who visited our clinic with a lower axillary mass and was diagnosed based on mammography, US, CT, and MRI findings.

사전 학습된 Transformer 기반 언어 모델은 자연어처리 시스템에 적용되었을 시 광범위한 사례에서 큰 폭의 성능 향상을 보여준다. 여기서 사전 학습에 사용되는 언어 모델링 태스크는 비지도 학습에 속하는 기술이기 때문에 상대적으로 데이터의 확보가 쉬운 편이다. 하지만 몇 종의 주류 언어를 제외한 대부분 언어는 활용할 수 있는 언어 자원 자체가 희소하며, 따라서 이러한 사전 학습 기술의 혜택도 누리기 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 이와 같은 상황에서 발생할 수 있는 자원 희소성 문제를 극복하기 위해 이종 언어 간 전이 학습을 이용하는 방법을 제안한다. 본 방법은 언어 자원이 풍부한 언어에서 학습된 Transformer 기반 언어 모델에서 얻은 파라미터 중 재활용 가능한 부분을 이용하여 목표 언어의 모델을 초기화한 후 학습을 진행한다. 또한, 기존 언어와 목표 언어의 차이를 학습하는 역할을 하는 적응층들을 추가하여 이종 언어 간 전이 학습을 돕는다. 제안된 방법을 언어 자원이 희귀한 상황에 대하여 실험해본 결과, 전이 학습을 사용하지 않은 기준 모델 대비 perplexity와 단어 예측의 정확도가 큰 폭으로 향상됨을 확인하였다.

Contralateral axillary lymph node metastasis is a rare entity in breast cancer and is currently classified as a distant metastasis; however, recent studies have proposed aggressive curative treatment since this entity may manifest as a locoregional disease. Herein, we report a rare case of contralateral axillary lymph node metastasis that presented with imaging findings 22 months after the initial breast cancer diagnosis in a 67-year-old female. The patient underwent lymph node dissection of the axilla with adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy. A follow-up examination 6 months after surgery showed no evidence of tumor recurrence or metastasis.

Purpose: Multidisciplinary approaches of surgical resection and chemotherapy have been widely used for the treatment of non-metastatic osteosarcomas. We aimed to assess the effect of neoadjuvant chemotherapy for metastasis and disease-specific survival. Materials and Methods: Authors retrospectively reviewed 225 young (<30 years old) and non-metastatic osteosarcoma patients who underwent surgical resection and postoperative chemotherapy between February 1984 and July 2010. Mean age was 14.4 years old (ranged: 4-29 years old) and average follow-up period was 9.1 years (2-28 years). The patients were divided into two groups according to the application of preoperative chemotherapy. Both groups were compared with clinical characteristics, metastasis-free survival and disease-specific survival. Results: All of 225 patients, 32 patients were treated with postoperative chemotherapy and 193 patients were performed preoperative and postoperative chemotherapy. Postoperative chemotherapy group showed significantly high rate of amputation (p<0.001). Metastasis was occurred in 101 patients. Postoperative chemotherapy group indicated significant higher rate of metastasis (69% vs 41%, p=0.004) and early development of metastasis (mean: 11.5 vs 20.3 months, p=0.045) than pre-and postoperative chemotherapy group. Fifty-seven patients were died of osteosarcoma. Postoperative chemotherapy group revealed significant lower rate of 5-year disease-specific survival than pre-and postoperative chemotherapy group (51% vs 84%, p=0.001). Adult (>15 years) and large sized tumor (>8 cm) were meaningful risk factors of metastasis and disease-specific survival. Although, local recurrences were occurred in 13 patients, there was no significant difference. Conclusion: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy offers better disease-specific survival and metastasis-free survival.

An 80 year-old male with a medical history of angiosarcoma of the scalp visited the Emergency Department complaining of dyspnea, and the chest X-ray revealed pneumothorax. He has undergone scalp resection and radiotherapy three years ago due to angiosarcoma. Due to a persistent air leak, he underwent wedge resection of the lung and was pathologically diagnosed with metastatic angiosarcoma to the lung. He underwent radiotherapy following the lung resection, but he died from his disease at 15 month following surgery due to further aggravation of the lung metastasis. Angiosarcoma is a highly malignant tumor and it frequently occurs on the scalp and face in elderly patients. Angiosarcoma frequently metastasizes to the lung and it may cause pneumothorax as a consequence of a ruptured cavitary lesion. We report here on a case of pneumothorax that was caused by lung metastasis in an elderly patient with a history of angiosarcoma of the scalp.
