체내방사능 측정시스템의 교정인자는 측정결과에 주요한 요인으로 작용한다. 교정인자는 특정 집단으로부터 표준체위와 표준장기를 도출, 이를 기초로 하여 제작한 펜텀으로부터 구하는 것이 일반적인 방법이다. 그러나 팬텀의 기하학적 구조 및 내부장기의 형상은 특정 집단에 따라 다르므로 이로 인한 측정오차가 발생할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 북아메리카 성인남성의 표준자료에 근거하여 제작된 LLNL 팬텀과 일본성인 남성의 표준자료에 근거하여 제작된 JAERI 팬텀을 한국원자럭연구소 폐 카운터를 이용하여 상호비교.분석하였다. 이와 함께 LLNL 팬텀으로 교정된 폐 카운터의 성능시험을 JAERI 팬텀으로 DOELAP 성능시험범주 I, II, III 및 IV에 대해 수행하여 편텀의 구조 및 형상으로부터 발생하는 측정오차를 분석하였다. 비교.분석결과 1.7 cm ~ 3.7 cm 근육등가 가슴벽두께 범위내에서 JAERI 팬텀에 의한 교정인자가 전반적으로 LLNL 팬텀의 것보다 다소 높은 수치를 보였으나 허용수준이었고, 성능시험결과 상대편중은 DOELAP 성능 용인 기준을 만족하였다. 결국 두 팬텀간의 측정오차는 측정 및 체내피폭선량 평가시 수반되는 오차와 비교해 보면 그다지 크지 않은 것으로 결론지울 수 있다. 따라서 LLNL 펜텀으로부터 구한 교정인자를 국내 성인남성의 일상 모니터링에 사용할 경우 측정결과가 다소 과대평가되기는 하나 허용수준으로서 큰 문제가 없는 것으로 나타났다.

Healthy adults in the ranges of from 22 to 25 years old, 208 males and 140 females respectively, who have no specific organic diseases in the heart and lung, were experimentally studied on the effect of blood pressure, pulse and breath rates, and blood circulation by the postural changes of the supine, semi-supine, upright, sitting and trendelenburg position. The results obtained were as follows : 1) The blood pressure showed makred differences in the postural changes of the upright>sitting>semisupine>trendelenburg>supine position, orderly. 2) The breath rate did not show specific findings in the postural changes. 3) If the dental chair were suddenly tilted forwardly and backwardly, patients would be subjected to fall in the dangerous state, fainting.

The purpose of this study was to identify some anthropometric characteristics related to the incidence of diabetes mellitus in Korea. The subjects were 165 male and female patients aged 30 to 70 years who had been diagnosed with diabetes mellitus for less than five year, recruied from eight different hospitals in Seoul, Korea. Weight, height, waist circumference, hip circumference and triceps skinfold thickness were measured. Weight before diagnosis of diabetes was also surveyed. The body mass index(BMI) of diabetic patients before diabetic diagnosis was significantly higher than that of reference values. Fifty percent of patients had BMI values greater than 25kg/$m^2$, and female patients were somewhat fatter than male patients. Since many subjects were overweight before diagnosis, obestty could be regarded as a risk factor for the incidence of diabetes mellitus. However, waist-hip ratios(WHR) fell within the normal range, so WHR may not be regarded as an important risk factor for NIDDM in Korea. This study suggests that the risk factors of onset of diabetes in Western populations may not be applicable to the Korea population. More study is needed to clarify the risk factors of Korean diabetes.

Purpose: This study investigated the effects of chest physiotherapies on intensive care unit patients mechanical ventilated. Methods: Good lung down position, chest percussion, postural drainage was applied to patients who admitted to ICU. Each patients divided into four groups and each group received different treatments. Sputum amount, lung compliance, tidal volume and oxygen saturation were measured before treatment and immediately, and time flowing. Data was analyzed with frequency, percentage, ANOVA and paired t-test using via SPSSWIN 12.0 program. Results: There were significant differences in variables each characteristics of subjects. Chest percussion increased tidal volume, static lung compliance for the mean time. Desaturation related to suction. Conclusion: Chest percussion influences on lung compliance. Based on this study results and limitation, this study suggests repeated studies in various groups

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo(BPPV) is the most common peripheral vestibular disorder clinically. It causes dizziness or vertigo, lightheadedness, imbalance, and nausea. by a change of position of the head with respect to gravity. BPPV is very well explained by mechanical consequences of loose debris within the inner ear and oriental medical theory of vertigo resulting from Phlegm(痰). Therefore, for treatment of BPPV, we can consider not only oriental medical therapy but also Canalith Repositioning Procedure. We report four improved cases of dizziness patient diagnosed BPPV and Dam Hun(痰暈) treated by canalith repositioning procedure and herbal medication and acupuncture.

To take maximum advantage of computers without compromising the health of library staffs and users, it is important that the computer workstation be adapted to the needs of the users. While the topic of occupational safety and health is a major industry concern, it is not commonplace in libraries. Therefore, this study is to apply the ergonomic principles to library computer workstations and suggest the ergonomic models for computer table and chair, monitor and keyboard placement, posture and motion. lighting, and other environments.

1. Boys and girls in our country are recommended to take 2,400 calorie a day, but the pupils in this school take no more than $500{\sim}600$ calorie from their lunches. They must take 800 calorie a meal. According to the weight ($40{\sim}43kg$, on the average) the necessary calorie a meal is 700. To raise the calorie, the side dish must be reformed from Gimchi or Ggagdugi to protein and fat food. 2. The average distance to the school is not far, but their bags are too heavy (about 5kg). It prevents them from approving their physical constitution. 3. Except the chest of the girls, the degree of the physical development is inferior to that of Kyongkydo, the Development of Education, or that of Japan. In short, the low degree of the physical development is caused by the low calorie and the heavy bags, as shown in Lee & Yonsei.

This study was performed to report the effect of oriental medical treatment and general biomechanic manipulation on a patient with upper limb palsy caused by postural brachial plexus injury. The patient was treated with acupuncture, herb medicine and general biomechanic manipulation. The effectiveness of treatment was evaluated with range of motion, visual analogue scale and manual muscle test. After 11 times treatment, motion and muscular force were progressed, pain was decreased. This result suggests that oriental medical treatment and general coordinative manipulation are effective to care the postural brachial plexus injury.

This paper presents a two dimensional p-version static infinite element for analyzing $1/r^n$ displacement decay type problems in unbounded media. The proposed element is developed by using shape functions based on approximate expressions of an analytical solution. Numerical results are presented for an opening in a homogeneous elastic infinite medium and a rigid footing rested on a homogeneous elastic half-space. The numerical results show the effectiveness of the proposed infinite element.
