This experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of pure mineral nitrogen fertilization on dry matter yield and to determine the amounts of advisable mineral nitrogen according to difference of annual precipitations in permanent grassland. The results obtained were as follows: 1. Only PK-fertilizing without additional mineral nitrogen application produced 6. 9 tonlha of annual dry matter yields on average in relatively wet years that was higher than in rel. dry and normal years under 3-cut system by 0. 7 and 0.6 ton DMIha, respectively. 2. Due to the lesser rainfall the nitrogen-efficiency was substantially higher with heavy dressing of nitrogen fertilizer. The absolute differences in yield between rel. dry and wet years were 0.4 and 0.7 ton DMIhalyear respectively when dressed with 90 and 120 kgN/ha/cut at 4-, 5- and 6-cut systems, whereas at 3-cut system differences around 1.3 and 1.1 ton Dhllhalyear respectively were recorded. 3. In rel. dry years the most efficient N-dressing rates per ha and year tended to be slightly higher than in rel. wet and normal years. Particularly at 5-cut system 4-7 kg/ha/cut of more nitrogen fertilization was required in order to obtain the highest overyields. 4. The N-dressing rates needed to maintain a nitrogen-efficiency of 8 to 16 kg DM/kg N tended to be stronger particularly at high cut system, and also in rel. dry years higher dressing rates were required that in rel. wet and normal years.

Osteosarcoma is a common primary malignant bone tumor in children and adolescents. Recent worldwide average incidences of osteosarcoma in people aged 0 to 24 years were 4.3 and 3.4 per million, respectively, with a ratio of 1.4:1. However, data on the incidence of osteosarcoma in Thailand are limited. This study analyzed the incidence of osteosarcoma in the upper northern region of Thailand, with a population of 5.85 million people (8.9% of the total Thai population), using data for the years 1998 to 2012, obtained from the Chiang Mai Cancer Registry (CMCR) at Chiang Mai University Hospital and the Lampang Cancer Registry (LCR) at the Lampang Cancer Hospital, a total of 144 cases. The overall annual incidence of osteosarcoma was 1.67 per million with a male:female ratio of 1.36:1. Incidences by age group (male and female) at 0 to 24, 25 to 59 and over 60 years were 3.5 (3.9 and 3.0), 0.8 (0.9 and 0.6), and 0.7 (0.8 and 0.5), respectively. The peak incidence occurred at 15 to 19 years for males and at 10 to 14 years for females. The median survival time was 18 months with a 5-year survival rate of 43%. Neither the age group nor the 5-year interval period of treatment was significantly correlated with survival during the 15-year period studied.

Clinical results with the Mechanical cardiac valves were reviewed for 261 patients who underwent cardiac valve replacement from September, 1985 to July, 1990. of the Mechanical valves used, 156 were Carbomedics, 109 Duromedics, 52 St. Jude and 11 Bjork-Shiley. Overall hospital mortality was 14 out of 261[5,36%]: 9 out of 159[5.66%] for MVR, 1 out of 35[2.86%] for AVR and 4 out of 67[5.96%] for DVR[AVR+MVR]. Two hundred and forty seven operative survivors were followed up for a total 466.8 patient-years, ranged from 1 month to 4.9 years [a mean 1.8 years] and the follow up was 96.0%. There were 12 valve-related complications: three from thromboembolism, three from valve thrombosis, three from prosthetic valve endocarditis, two from paravalvular leak and the other one from hemorrhage. Actuarial rate free from all valve-related complication at 4.9 years was 96$\pm$1.3%. There were 11 late deaths: two from thromboembolism, one from valve thrombosis, one from prosthetic valve endocarditis, one from hemorrhage and the others 6 from non-valve-related complications. Actuarial survival rate at 4.9 years was 94$\pm$2.0%. 96$\pm$3.0% for MVR, 94$\pm$4.2% for AVR and 91$\pm$3.7% for DVR[AVR+MVR]. And there are 7 reoperations: three from paraprosthetic leak, two from prosthetic valve endocarditis and two from valve thrombosis. Actuarial rate free from reoperation at 9 years was 96$\pm$2.9%. On the basis of this 4.9 years of experience, the pyrolytic carbon mechanical valves appears to be an excellent mechanical prosthesis for cardiac valve replacement, in terms of hemodynamic performance, low mortality and low thrombogenecity.

Objectives: Life course exposure to passive smoke may predict health, but there are few validated measures. We tested the reliability and validity of a retrospective life course passive smoking questionnaire. Methods: Participants from the third follow-up of the Childhood Determinants of Adult Health study (2014-2019, ages 36-49 years) retrospectively reported mother/father/other household member smoking when living at home during childhood, including duration (years) and smoking location (never/sometimes/always inside house). The severity of exposure index (SEI; sum of mother/father/other years smoked multiplied by smoking location), cumulative years of exposure (CYE; sum of mother/father/other years), and total household smokers (THS) were derived. The reliability of retrospective passive smoking reports was examined with intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) using household smoking reported 34 years earlier in 1985 by participants when aged 7-15 years. Construct validity was examined by correlating retrospective passive smoking with participants' smoking in adulthood and lung function in childhood and adulthood. Results: Among 2082 participants (mean±standard deviation [SD], 45.0±2.5 years; 55.2% females), THS ranged from 0 to 5 (mean±SD, 0.9±1.0), CYE ranged from 0 to 106 (mean±SD, 10.5±13.9), and SEI ranged from 0 to 318 (mean±SD, 24.4±36.0). Retrospective measures showed moderate agreement with total household smokers reported in childhood (ICC, 0.58 to 0.62). The retrospective measures were weakly but significantly (p<0.05) correlated with participants' smoking (r=0.13 to 0.15) and lung function (r= -0.05 to -0.06). Conclusions: The retrospective passive smoking questionnaire showed reasonable reliability and validity. This measure may be useful for epidemiological studies.

This study analyzes the Domestic Economic Ripple Effect (DERE) of the Donghae-Bukpuseon Railway (DBR). Input-Output Analysis and Scenario Analysis are employed. First, the future demand is approximately 6.86 billion people, 1.4 billion tons of logistics, and future forecast production is 1.2 trillion won for passengers, and 0.15 trillion won for logistics. Second, the production inducement (PI) coefficient of the railway industry is 2.080, the value-added inducement (VAI) coefficient is 0.680, the import inducement (II) coefficient is 0.32 and the employment inducement (EI) coefficient is 6.45. Third, for the DERE, PI is 2.846 trillion won, VAI is 0.939 trillion won, II is 0.446 trillion won, and EI is 8,737 people/1 billion won. Fourth, PI is approximately 2.8 trillion won, and the payback period is 35 years. Scenario 1 (a 50% increase in the demand for tourism) takes approximately 27 years, Scenario 2 (an 100% increase), 20 years, and Scenario3 (an 150% increase), 16 years. The successful way of the DBR is to enlarge the linkage effect of trans-railways for which international cooperation and agreements are needed. Also, even if the DBR is isolated due to worsening inter-Korea relations, the development of tourism resources is important for public investment feasibility.

The principal feature of bioprosthetic valve which remains to be completely defined is long-term durability, especially, with regard to the impact of patient age. This report provides extended data regarding valve durability derived from a data base of 515 patients who received lonescu-Shiley bioprosthetic valve between 1978 and 1985; cumulative duration of follow-up was 1562.3 patient-years, with a maximum follow-up duration of 8.7 years. The results of this survey showed as follows: 1] The actuarial freedom from valve failure at 6 years were 43*7% for 0-19 year-old group, 70*1% for 20-39 year-old group and 75*1% for over 40 year-old group separately. 2] Of the causes of valve failure, only the primary tissue failure was markedly influenced by patient`s age [p<0.001], but the prosthetic valve endocarditis was not [p>0.1]. 3] The linealized incidences of primary tissue failure were 7.31% per patient-year in 0-19 year-old group and 0.12% in 20-39 year-old group. 4] The primary tissue failure rate in 0-19 year-old group was 6.36% during first 4 years, but then increased upto 10.95% at postoperative 5 year. Thus we find that in bioprosthetic valve the primary tissue failure is apt to occur when patient is young [especially less than 20 years old] and the postreplacement time passes [especially over 5 years]. The rate of bioprosthesis failure among children and adolescents is clearly higher than that observed in adult patients; however, conclusive quantification of time-related risk for young patient is not yet possible on the basis of existing data. Therefore, the advisability of bioprosthesis implantation in children remains to be determined.
