We classified collaboration types of Government-supported Research Institutes (GRIs) in Korea to make a creation knowledge with the openness and the diversity. The openness is described to collaboration dependence and leading intensity, and the diversity is expressed to collaboration diversity and collaboration concentration. We suggest four taxonomy models explained in terms of the openness and the diversity with country level and institute level. This study uses 39,507 papers in SCOUPS DB that include author(s) affiliated to 26 GRIs. It concludes that many GRIs is classified to the type of multilateral collaboration follower in institute level and to the type of global network player in country level from the perspective of openness. In the aspect of diversity, many GRIs is concentrated to the collaboration type of picky eater or monophagous in institute level and to the multinatioal asymmetry type or non-multinational asymmetry type in country level. It is necessary for GRIs to lead collaboration and to transfer inhouse R&D institutes with high performance to be competitive institutes which make high quality knowledge.

Purpose: To evaluate the prevalence and clinical manifestations of various glomerulonephritis (GN) in children, a clinicopathological anlysis of 310 biopsied cases were performed. Method: We conducted retrospective study with review of histopathologic findings and clinical manifestations of the 310 cases diagnosed as glomerulonephritis by percutaneous renal biopsy which were done between January 1986 and December 1996 at department of pediatrics, Pusan Paik hospital. Results: 1) Male to female ratio was 1.54:1 and the range of age was from 13 months to 15 years 10 months. 2) Among these, 217 (70.0%) patients were belong to primary GN and 93 (30.0%) patients were belong to secondary GN. As a whole, the most common pathologic diagnosis was minimal change lesion (MC, 32.6%), which was followed by IgA nephropathy (IgAN, 15.8%), $Henoch-Sch\"{o}nlein$ purpura nephritis (HSPN, 13.5%), Poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis (PSAGN, 8.1%). 3) Clinical manifestations of patients were asymptomatic urinary abnormality (43.2%), nephrotic syndrome (41.0%), acute glomerulonephritis (14.2%), chronic glomerulonephritis (1.0%), rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis (0.6%). 4) In primary GN, the most common pathologic diagnosis was MC (46.5%), IgAN (22.6%), thin glomerular basement membrane (GBM) disease (7.8%), membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN, 5.5%), mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis (MesPGN,4.6%), focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS, 4.6%), membranous nephropathy (MN, 0.9%), sclerosing glomerulonephritis (SCGN, 0.9%), crescentic glomerulonephritis (CreGN, 0.5%) and non-specific glomerulonephritis (NonspGN, 6.0%). 5) Major causes of secondary GN were HSPN (45.2%), PSAGN (26.9%), hepatitis B associated glomerulonephritis (HBGN, 17.2%), lupus nephritis (LN, 6.5%), Alport syndrome (2.2%), hemolytic uremic syndrome (1.0%), fibrillary glomerulonephritis (1.0%) in descending order. Conclusions: There are some differences of the results of clinicopathological stuidies of glomerulonephritis in children because of its different indications of renal biopsy, pathologic classification of renal disease and methods of analysis among investigators. In order to establish more reliable data of incidence and classification of childhood glomerulonephritis in Korea, multicenter cooperative study were necessary.

Gentrification is the process by which a working class or other disadvantaged area of a city changes into a middle class residential or commercial district. Gentrification, which has received much attention in arts management in recent years as part of a concern with urban regeneration, carries a generally negative connotation. In this paper, we interrogate this negative view of gentrification to explore ways arts entrepreneurship can convert the perceived threat of gentrification into opportunity. To this end, we examine the Mullae Cultural Salon in the gentrifying district of the Mullae Creative Village. Through a literature review of gentrification and arts entrepreneurship, we propose seven elements of art entrepreneurs responding to gentrification as an analytic framework for research. Our findings indicate that arts entrepreneurs were able to extend the maturity phase of gentrification and thus enhance the cultural and artistic value of the region for other artists and arts entrepreneurs.

Background : The length of postoperative drug therapy remains controversial in pulmonary tuberculosis. We analyzed our experiences to determine the postoperative duration of chemotherapy after resection. Method : A retrospective review was performed in 66 of 95 patients that underwent pulmonary resection for pulmonary tuberculosis between January 1993 and December 1998. We compared the relapse rates according to the length of postoperative chemotherapy in each group, classified by the results of sputum AFB culture before the surgery, the number of resistant drugs, the number of prior treatment and the division of anti-TB drugs used postoperatively. Results : Fifty three of 66(80.3%) were men and 13(19.7%) were women with a median age of 33.5 years(range, 16 to 63). The mean lengths of the pre- and post-operative chemotherapies were 4.9 months, and 12.9 months respectively. Five of 66 patients (7.6%) relapsed during the mean period of follow up (39.7 months). In the group less than three times of the prior treatment, there were two relapses (20%) in Ed-the highlight above-rephrase 10 patients that were medicated for 6 months or less, and one relapse in 43 patients (2.3%) that took medicine for more than 6 months (p=0.03). In the group using second-line drugs postoperatively, there was one relapse (25%) in four patients that were medicated for 12 months or less. No patient in a total of 17 that received medicine for more than 12 months relapsed (p=0.03). Conclusion : We recommend that patients with the prior treatment less than three times should be treated for more than 6 months after resection and patients using the second-line drugs postoperatively should be medicated for more than 12 months.

From March 1983 through January 1990, two hundred sixty six patients with non-small cell lung cancer were treated with external radiation therapy at the Department of Therapeutic Radiology, Kangnam St. Mary's Hospital, Catholic University Medical College. A retrospective analysis was performed on eligible 116 patients who had been treated with radiation dose over 40 Gy and had been able to be followed up. There were 104 men and 12 women. The age ranged from 33 years to 80 years (median ; 53 years). Median follow up period was 18.8 months ranging from 2 months to 78 months. According to AJC staging system, there were 18($15.5\%$) patients in stage II, 79($68.1\%$) patients in stage III and 19($16.4\%$) patients in stage IV. The Pathologic classification showed 72($62.8\%$) squamous cell carcinomas, 16($13.8\%$) adenocarcinomas, 7($6\%$) large cell carcinomas, 5($4\%$) undifferentiated carcinomas, and 16($13.8\%$) un-known histology. In Karnofsky performance status, six ($5.2\%$) patients were in range below 50, 12($10.4\%$) patients between 50 and 60, 46($39.6\%$) patients between 60 and 70, 50($44.0\%$) patients between 70 and 80 and only one ($0.8\%$) patient was in the range over 80. Sixty ($51.7\%$) patients were treated with radiation therapy (RT) alone. Thirty three ($28.4\%$) patients were treated in combination RT and chemotherapy, twenty three ($19.8\%$) patients were treated with surgery followed by postoperative adjuvant RT and of 23 Patients above, five ($4.3\%$) patients, were treated with postoperative RT and chemotherapy. Overall response according to follow-up chest X-ray and chest CT scans was noted in $92.5\%$ at post RT 3 months. We observed that overall survival rates at 1 year were $38.9\%$ in stage II, $27.8\%$ in stage III, and $11.5\%$ in stage IV, and 2 year overall survival rates were $11.1\%$ in stage II, $20.8\%$ in stage III and $10.5\%$ in stage IV, respectively. We evaluated the performance status, radiation dose, age, type of histology, and the combination of chemotherapy and/or surgery to see the influence on the results fellowing radiation therapy as prognostic factors. Of these factors, only performance status and response after radiation therapy showed statistical significance (P<0.05)

Statement of problem: Many studies have been conducted to improve the primary stability of implants by providing bioactive surfaces via surface treatments. Increase of surface roughness may increase osteoblast activity and promote stronger bonding between bone and implant surface and it has been reported that bioactive surface or titanium can be obtained through alkali and heat treatment. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the stability of alkali and heat treated implants via histomorphometric analysis. Material and methods: Specimens were divided into three groups; group 1 was the control group with machined surface, the other groups were treated for 24 hours in 5 M NaOH solution and heat treated for 1 hour at $600^{\circ}C$ in the atmosphere (group 2) and vacuum (group 3) conditions respectively. Surface characteristics were analyzed and fixtures were implanted into rabbits. The specimens were histologically and histomorphometrically compared according to healing periods and change in bone composition were analyzed with EPMA (Electron Probe Micro Analyzer). Results: 1. Groups treated with alkali and heat showed increase of oxidization layer and Na ions. Groups 2 which was heat treated in atmosphere showed significant increase of surface roughness (P<.05). 2. Histomorphometric analysis showed significant increase in BIC (bone to implant contact) according to increase in healing period and there was significant increases in groups 2 and 3 (P<.05). 3. BA(bone area) ratio showed similar results as contact ratio, but according to statistical analysis there was significant increase according to increase in healing period in group 2 only (P<.05). 4. EPMA analysis revealed no difference in gradation of bone composition of K, P, Ca, Ti in surrounding bone of implants according to healing periods but groups 2 and 3 showed increase of Ca and P in the initial stages. Conclusion: From the results above, it can be considered that alkali and heat treated implants in the atmosphere have advantages in osseointegration in early stages and may decrease the time interval between implantation and functional adaptation.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of Lespedeza Caneata (LC) extracts on atopic dermatitis. For the experiment, mice were divided into a normal group, an AD group, and AD-LC groups (100 mg/Kg, 300 mg/Kg, and 500 mg/Kg). For the AD and AD-LC groups, 1% DNCB $200{\mu}{\ell}$ was applied at a hair-removed site for 2 weeks, and then 0.1% DNCB $150{\mu}{\ell}$ was applied every 2 days for 4 weeks. Skin thickness is a symptom of atopic dermatitis, and in this experiment, the AD group had the thickest skins, and the AD-LC group (500 mg/Kg) had the same skin thickness as the normal group. Mast cells show inflammatory reaction, and in this experiment, the AD group had the largest number of mast cells. Collagen fibers are usually observed on normal skins, and in this experiment, the AD-LC group (500 mg/Kg) had a uniform level of those fibers. Based on the study results, it turned out that LC extracts have the anti-atopic efficacy improving keratinization, erosion, and uredo.

With the rapid advance of computer and communication techonology, the recent trend of education environment is edveloping in the ubiquitous learning (u-learning) direction that learners select and organize the contents, time and order of learning by themselves. Since the amount of education information through the internet is increasing rapidly and it is managed in document in an effective way is necessary. The document clustering is integrated documents to subject by classifying a set of documents through their similarity among them. Accordingly, the document clustering can be used in exploring and searching a document and it can increased accuracy of search. This paper proposes an efficient incremental clustering method for a set of documents increase gradually. The incremental document clustering algorithm assigns a set of new documents to the legacy clusters which have been identified in advance. In addition, to improve the correctness of the clustering, removing the stop words can be proposed.

Today, the curtain wall is used in many construction projects because of excellent economical efficiency and constructability. The life-cycle process of curtain wall construction consists of the architectural design, curtain wall design, manufacturing, const겨ction, and maintenance phase which has become one of the most important objects that have to be managed. Since the general management method focused on each separated phase, it has accompanied many problems such as increases of the cost and duration, and loss of productivity. To solve these problems, it is necessa교 to have a new management method based on supply chain management. Thus this research analysed the processes of stick system, semi-unit system, unit system, and panel system classified by the type of the curtain wall, and suggested proper methods of application of SCM concept to each type of curtain wall construction.
