The purpose of this study is to prepare the basis for a more objective evaluation of oral fluency by comparing speech patterns of Korean native speakers and L2 Korean learners. For this purpose, the current study focused on the analysis of speech materials of the 21st century Sejong spoken corpus and Korean learner corpus. We compared the oral fluency of Korean native speakers and Korean learners based on speech rate, pause, and discourse markers. The results show that the pattern of Korean learners is different to that of Korean native speakers in all aspects of speech rate, pause, and discourse markers; even though proficiency of Korean leaners show increase, they could not reach the oral fluency level of Korean native speakers. At last, based on these results of the analysis, we added suggestions for setting the evaluation criteria of oral fluency of Korean learners.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate utility of rotating adjustment using Xsight spine tracking system in 3D DOF location adjusting method, to minimize error between 6D DOF and 3D DOF in fiducial tracking system. In this study, the result of 6D DOF target location error is $0.124{\pm}0.058mm$, using fiducial inside tumor 3D DOF $0.673{\pm}0.142mm$, outside tumor $1.126{\pm}0.253mm$, apply with Xsight spine tracking system 3D DOF $0.542{\pm}0.103mm$. As the experiment shows, it was demonstrated that rotating adjustment through Xsight spine tracking system is valuable in case of treatment in 3D DOF location error that makes increasing accuracy and dose distribution each approximately 48% and 3%. In accordance with result of this study is useful rotation.

This study is intended to examine the effect of photoluminescent exit signs in the event of failure of both the power to the lighting and illuminated exit sign. To achieve the purpose, the test house was exhibited in Fire EXPO '05. 520 visitors were examined from May 26-29, 2005. The results of this study are as follows; The evacuation from buildings in dark conditions showed that $70\%$ of men and $72\%$ of women were crawled along the wall. Meanwhile, $88\%$ of men and $83\%$ of women were evacuated with ordinary walking in photoluminescent exit signs. The egress time was shortened from 53 seconds to 64 seconds in accordance with age, height and visual power. The photoluminescent exit signs located on public buildings floors will aid in evacuation from buildings in the event of failure of the power to the lightings and illuminated exit signs.

We report highly sensitive detection of myocardial infarction biomarkers, such as myoglobin and cTnI, within several hundred seconds using a rotating-analyzer ellipsometer and a biosensor with biochips fabricated on a $SiO_2$-coated tilted silicon substrate. We choose the running buffer to be pure phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) or 10% mixed human serum. When we choose the running buffer to be pure PBS, we obtain diagnostic densities of pure myocardial infarction biomarkers of up to 1 ng/ml and 5 pg/ml respectively. Meanwhile, when we use PBS with 10% human serum, the measured densities of myoglobin and cTnI were up to 1 ng/mL and 1 pg/mL respectively. The measured diagnostic densities are less than 1/15 and 1/80 (in cases of myoglobin and cTnI respectively) of those referenced by the World Health Organization.

This article aims to compare the honorific expressions in Different Versions of . Cheonuisogam, a version in classical Chinese, has two different versions of translation in Korean, Cheonuisogameonhae: a hand-written version and a woodblock-printed version. A hand-written version was written in 1755 and a woodblock-printed version was published in 1756. This article covered two themes in different versions: honorific subject-particles '-gyeoosyeo(-겨오셔)'/'-gyeoʌosyeo()' and prefinal-ending '-sʌp-(--). The honorific subject-particles '-gyeoosyeo(-겨오셔)' appeared more in a hand-written version than a woodblock-printed version. The '-gyeoʌosyeo()' is not found in a woodblock-printed version. The prefinal-ending '-sʌp-(--) has three functions: agent modesty of objects, speaker modesty of agent, speaker modesty of listener. The '-sʌp-(--), in Cheonuisogameonhae, has mainly function as a speaker modesty. The '-sʌp-(--) appeared more in a hand-written version than a woodblock-printed version.

기존의 폐암 발생의 고위험군(나이. 흡연력, $FEV_1$, 가족력, 직업적 발암물질의 노출력, 기존의 폐암 및 두경부 종양)에 대한 저선량 나선식 CT와 기관지 내시경 검사로 선별 검사 시 폐암의 유병률은 높아야 2%내외이고 대부분 그보다 낮은 것으로 알려져 있다. 특이도는 49-90%, 양성예측률은 10%이하로 선별검사 시 불필요한 검사를 초래하고 그에 따른 이환률과 사망률을 증가시키며 비용적인 문제를 야기하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이에 기존의 고위험군에 대해 대상 환자를 더욱 더 좁힐 필요가 있으며, 이는 실제 임상적으로 이용 가능한 생물학적 표지자의 개발의 필요성이 있다고 하겠다. 그러나 현재까지 알려진 폐암조기검진에 대한 각종 진단 수기 중애서 상기의 3가지 방법(저선량 MDCT, 자가형광기관지경 및 객담내 MAGE)을 한꺼번에 시행하는 program은 비용적인 문제는 있지만 시도해 볼 만한 방법이라고 생각된다.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) can result in mortality or progress to chronic kidney disease in hospitalized patients. Although serum creatinine has long been used as the best biomarker for diagnosis of AKI, it has some clinical limitations, especially in children. New biomarkers are needed for early diagnosis, differential diagnosis, and reliable prediction of prognosis in AKI. Up to the present, candidate AKI biomarkers include neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), interleukin-18 (IL-18), livertype fatty acid-binding protein (L-FABP), matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), and Nacetyl-$\ss$-D-glucosaminidase (NAG). However, whether these are superior to serum creatinine in the confirmation of diagnosis and prediction of prognosis in AKI is unclear. Further studies are needed for clinical application of these new biomarkers in AKI.

Gastric teratoma is an extremely rare neoplasm in children which account for less than one percent of all teratomas. Unlike other teratomas, most reported gastric teratomas was benign except one case and occurred predominantly in boys. Additionally, gastric teratomas present in the first year of life as a palpable mass, abdominal distension, vomiting, hematemesis or respiratory distress. Patients with gastric teratomas have an excellent prognosis after complete excision of the tumor. We report a case of immature gastric teratoma in an one-day-old boy, which was diagnosed by abdominal sonography and CT scan, and confirmed by surgery.

해양관측부이는 해상에서 일어나는 기상현상, 해양의 변화 등을 관측하는 중요시설물로 주로 원거리 해상에서 운영되고 있다. 이러한 해양관측부이는 원거리에서 운영됨에 따라 Vandalism, 선박운항 부주의 등에 의하여 파손, 유실 등의 사고가 빈번하게 발생하게 되는데, 해양관측부이가 선박 충돌 등으로 인해 손상되면 운영여건 특수성에 의해 복구 및 교체 작업에 많은 시간과 비용이 발생하게 되며, 정위치 이탈 시 2차사고의 발생 위험성이 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 해양관측부이의 보호를 위하여 위성전송 파노라마 카메라 및 항로표지용 AIS 등의 장치를 활용하여 접근하는 선박을 감시하고, 상대 선박에는 위험경보를 인식하여 사고를 예방하며, 불가항력적인 사고 발생 시 운영자에게 이를 신속하게 알려 조기에 필요한 조치를 취하게 할 수 있는 방법과 시스템을 개발하였으며, 해당 시스템을 효율적으로 활용할 수 있는 방안을 제시하고, 개발한 시스템의 유용성을 검증한다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the MAPK signaling pathways involved in regulation of HO-1 and the odontoblast differentiation markers during the odontoblastic differentiation for HDPCs. We evaluated cell growth by MTT assay and differentiation marker mRNA expression by RT-PCR. When the cells were treated with p38 inhibitor (SB203580, $10{\mu}M$), JNK inhibitor (SP600125, $10{\mu}M$), and ERK inhibitor (PD98059, $20{\mu}M$) for 7 days, cell growth and expression of HO-1 and differentiation makers were significantly decreased in HDPCs. Our results suggest that odontoblastic differentiation is positively regulated by HO-1 induction in HDPCs via ERK, JNK, and p38 signaling pathways. Thus, pharmacological HO-1 induction might represent a potent therapeutic approach for pulp capping and the regeneration of HDPCs.
