The influence of nutritional conditions on the histological changes of hepatocyte and intestinal epithelium as well as hepatosmatic index (HSI), protein, RNA and DNA concentrations of liver of Rhynchocypris oxycephalus was tested. Although, the starved group showed higher concentrations of protein, DNA and RNA than the fed group, food deprivation resulted in a decrease in the HSI, hepatocyte nucleus size and nuclear height of the intestinal epithelium. The RNA-DNA ratio appears to be a useful index of nutritional status in R. oxycephalus and may be useful for determining if R. oxycephalus is in a period of rapid or slow growth at the time of sampling. Additionally, the data have been interpreted in detail and some biologically important relationships discussed.

To investigate relative flammability in flaming combustion among 10 softwoods and 10 hardwoods, oxygen indices were determined for flat-grained sapwoods through Up and Down method following oxygen index test of ASTM D 2863-77. Oxygen index ranged from 21.0 for Pinus strobus to 28.2 for Larix gmelinii var. principis-ruprechtii in softwoods and from 20.7 for Populus davidiana to 27.6 for Quercus acntissima in hardwoods, which indicates Larix gmelinii var. principis-ruprechtii and Quercus acutissima being ranked first in inflammability and Pinus strobus and Populus davidiana being the least in fire resistance by softwood and hardwood because highly flammable materials are likely to have a low oxygen index.

본 연구에서는 엄격성 지수(Strigency Index)분석에 따른 OECD 가입국들의 코로나19 대응 정책 엄격성의 효과성을 분석하였다. 코로나바이러스감염증-19(이하, 코로나19)발생 이후 전 세계 대다수 국가들은 점진적 일상회복 단계로 접어들어 'with corona' 시대로 가고 있다. 코로나19의 완전 방역을 이루며 이전과 같은 일상으로 돌아가고 있지만, 또다시 대규모 감염병이 발생할 수 있다는 가능성을 가지고 있다. 그리하여 본 연구에서는 옥스퍼드 코로나바이러스 정부대응추적 프로젝트(OxCGRT)에서 제시된 21개 지표 중 OurWorldinData서 엄격성 지수 분석에 활용되는 9개 지표를 분석하여 정책의 엄격성을 분석하여 추후 발생하는 대규모 감염병에 효과적으로 대응하기 위한 기초 자료가 되고자 한다. 엄격성 지수 분석 결과, 9개 지표 중 6개 지표에서 정책의 도입한 시점부터 확진자가 감소하는 추세를 보이는 유사한 변화를 찾을 수 있었다. 하지만, 엄격성 지수 분석을 통해 국가 대응의 적절성·효과성을 입증하기에는 판단 기준이 0~4점 사이의 임의의 기준으로 분류되고 있었으며, 변수설정 또한 제시되어 있지 않아 대응 정책의 엄격성을 평가하는 기준으로 활용하기에는 한계점이 있어 보인다. 본 연구에서 엄격성 지수 분석을 통한 감염병 대응 정책의 효과성을 찾고자 하였다. 지수와 확진자 추세 간 유사한 변화는 찾았지만, 엄격성 지수의 한계점이 존재하는 연구이다. 그러나 본 연구의 결과를 통해 추후 확진자 증감 대비 엄격성 지수 분석을 통한 상관관계 분석, 지표별 평균치와 확진자 추세 분석을 통한 공통적인 효과성 분석 등 다른 연구의 기초 자료가 될 수 있을 것이라 판단된다.

Molar Incisor Hypomineralization(MIH) have recently gained intensive research interests and various clinical trials. Most prevalence, etiology, treatment studies in MIH were carried out in the European countries, and data from the Korean were seldom. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of MIH and the status of dental caries and treatment on the first permanent molars in primary school children. For this study, 1,344 primary school students in Busan and Ulsan cities were examined directly the permanent incisors and first molars. The results of the survey were as follows: 81 MIH cases were identified among 1,344 cases. The prevalence of MIH in this group of children was 6.0%. Children with MIH showed a significantly higher DMFT value for permanent teeth than children without MIH. The mean number of decayed, missed, and filled in 1st permanent molars(DMFT index) was 1.17. The rate of children with restoration on 1st permanent molar was 13.6% and the sequence of restoration materials was as follows : composite resin, amalgam, gold inlay.

This study is to clarify the comparative relationship and a mechanical anisotropy of rock on the subject of granite distributed in the Namwon area Uniaxial compressive and Brazilian strengths with respect to the horizontal and vertical axes of granite are shown the linear relation. In the case of the result of the p-wave velocity measurement. it is represented that the velocity of vortical direction is faster about 10 to 15% than other two horizontal directions. The difference between velocities is caused by a developmental pattern of microcracks distributed in rock. Moreover, this result is very consistent with the result investigated through thin sections. The proportion of uniaxial compression strength to Index of point load strength ($Is_{(50)}$) is 18~20 times in case of granite. Uniaxial compressive strength is relatively good relationship with point load strength, Schmidt hammer rebound value, and tensile strength point load strength of them is the best comparative relationship. It is indicated that point load test is the most useful tool to estimate uniaxial compressive strength, comparing with other experimental methods.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the validity and reliability of plaque scoring system using new Qraycam (All in One Bio, Korea) device which enables plaque score without tooth disclosing. This study measured Quigley-Hein index and plaque control record by both Qraycam and disclosing agent on 64 elderly people and checked degree of congruence between the two methods. Reliability was evaluated with the mean of measured values, kappa index and intraclass correlation coefficient statistical analysis. The analysis of the plaque scores showed a high agreement between the measured values according to the method of measurement and the measured part. The mean of plaque index of anterior labial were not significantly different according to measurement method. The kappa index was higher by Qraycam and tooth disclosing method of plaque index. Therefore, it was verified that Qraycam has sufficient reliability as screening tool for plaque scoring system.

The purpose of this study was to examine the demographic characteristics, oral health awareness and oral health behavior of 1,356 Korean senior citizens based on the fourth raw materials of the 2008 national health and nutrition survey, and to analyze their DMFS, DMFT and FS-T indexes, which were oral health indicators. The findings of the study were as follows: 1. The mean DMFS index of the Korean senior citizens was 26.62, and their average DMFT index was 6.76. Their mean FS-T index was 21.51. 2. Out of the demographic characteristics of the Korean elderly people, education made statistically significant differences to the DMFS(p<0.05) and FS-T(p<0.001) indexes, and whether they worked or not made statistically significant differences to the DMFT(p<0.01), DMFS(0.001) and FS-T(0.001) indexes. There were no significant gaps according to gender, age and presence or absence of a spouse. 3. The oral health awareness of the Korean senior citizens(subjective oral health status, whether to need a dental treatment, concern for oral health and mastication) had no statistically significant relationship to their DMFS, DMFT and FS-T indexes. 4. Among the oral health behaviors of the Korean elderly people, whether they got a dental checkup over the past year made statistically significant differences to the DMFT(p<0.01), DMFS(p<0.001) and FS-T (p<0.001) indexes, and there were statistically significant gaps in the DMFT(p<0.010, FS-T(p<0.01) and DMFS(p<0.001) indexes according to yesterday's toothbrushing frequency. The time when they went to a dentist made a significant difference to the FS-T(p<0.01) index only.

Following the previous experiments, a starvation experiment was conducted to determine the influence of feeding and starvation on the histological and biochemical changes, the morphormetric changes in the sectioned body and the morphometric changes in Rhynchocypris oxycephalus (Sauvage and Dabry). The influence of starvation on nutritional conditions of the histological changes of hepatocyte and intestinal epithelium as hepatosmatic index (HSI), protein, RNA and DNA concentrations of liver in R. oxycephalus was tested. Although the starved group showed higher concentrations of protein, DNA and RNA than the fed group, food deprivation resulted in a decrease in the HSI, hepatocyte nucleus size and nuclear height of the intestinal epithelium. The RNA - DNA ratio appears to be a useful index of nutritional status in R. oxycephalus and may be useful for determining if R. oxycephalus is in a period of rapid or slow growth at the time of sampling. Additionally, the data have been interpreted in detail and some biologically important relationships discussed. The effects of starvation on the morphometrical changes in sectioned body traits, condition factor, viscera index and dressing percentage were determined for evaluating nutritional conditions of R. oxycephalus. Starvation for nine weeks resulted in a decrease in most sectioned traits as well as in condition factor and viscera index (P<0.05). These findings suggest that nutritional parameters used in this study appear to be a useful index for nutritional status in this species. The data has been interpreted in detail and some important body sectioned values of interest to commercial growers discussed. A 75-day study was conducted to determine the effect of starvation on classical and truss parameters in R. oxycephalus. Truss dimensions of almost the entire head and trunk region as well as the abdomen were increased significantly through feeding or starvation (P<0.05). Truss dimensions of the caudal region generally decreased through feeding or starvation, particularly those dimensions at the hind part of the trunk. There were some significant decreases in classical dimensions of the head region during feeding, in relation to body depth characteristics in the trunk and caudal region during starvation, whereas there was only one decreasing classical dimension in the caudal region during feeding. The results of this study indicate that application of the truss network as a character set enforces classical coverage across the body form, discrimination among experimental groups thus being enhanced. Considering that the dimension of the lower part of the head and some truss and classical dimensions were least affected by feeding and starvation, these dimensions may then be useful as a taxonomical indicator to discriminate the species of Rhynchocypris sp. The value of trunk region dimensions with a large component of body depth in R. oxycephalus is most likely to be compromised by variability related to differences in feeding regimes of fish in different habitats.

식생지수 시계열 자료를 이용한 식생 및 토지피복 모니터링을 수행하기 위해서는 구름으로 인한 누락 및 왜곡된 식생지수 문제를 먼저 해결해야만 한다. 특히 한반도와 같이 여름철 집중 호우기에 대부분의 영상에 구름이 존재하는 경우 이들 구름화소를 제거하거나 복원하지 않을 경우, 분석 결과에 상당한 왜곡이 발생하거나 특정 시기의 영상자료를 분석에 반영할 수 없는 경우가 발생하게 된다. HANTS 알고리즘은 이 같은 구름 화소 문제를 해결하기 위한 알고리즘으로 연중 식생지수의 변화는 비교적 단순한 반복적 주기함수의 형태를 가지므로 소수의 cos 함수를 이용한 푸리에 근사식으로 전체 연중 식생지수를 표현할 수 있다는 가정에서 출발한다. 이 때 구름화소로 인한 원식생지수와의 차이가 특정 임계값을 초과하였을 경우 해당 관측치를 근사과정에서 제외함으로써 구름의 영향을 받지 않은 식생지수 시계열 자료만을 이용하게 된다. 이 과정을 수행하기 위해서는 몇몇 제어변수의 설정이 필요한데, 본 연구에서는 한반도와 같이 특정 시기에 장기간 구름이 분포하는 상황에서 최적의 식생지수 복원을 위한 HANTS 알고리즘의 제어변수를 선정하고 재구축된 식생지수를 평가하였다. 이를 위한 실험으로 2002년 대전 지역의 MODIS Terra 식생지수 시계열 영상을 대상으로 HANTS 알고리즘을 주요 식생피복별로 적용해 보았다.

This study was conducted to investigate the optimal management interval in 33 healthy adults by observing changes in oral health on the basis of the plaque control index and gingival index. When plaque control score was compared according to the period, it was found that oral hygiene management was the best in the fourth visit (p<0.05). Improved oral hygiene status was observed during the 3- and 6-month follow-up (p<0.05). Regarding gingival index, the fourth visit showed the healthiest gingival status (p<0.05). At the 3-month follow-up, the gingival index worsened, but a healthy gingival status was attained by 6-month follow-up (p<0.05). The plaque control score according to interest in dental health showed that the 'interested' group had good oral hygiene management (p<0.05). As a motivation for oral hygiene status and gingival health, examination with a 'phase contrast microscope' in the first visit and calculation of the 'evaluation index' in the follow-up visit tended to improve the patients' ability for oral hygiene management (p>0.05). The questionnaire survey showed, that the optimal management interval was 1, 3, and 6 months. As a result, with the effective management interval for the preventive management program focused on professional mechanical tooth cleaning, which was administered weekly, the maximum ability for oral hygiene management was attained at the fourth visit. The effective management period was 1 month. The use of a phase contrast microscope and the calculation of the evaluation index for oral hygiene management could influence the motivation to improve oral hygiene management.
