We conducted a comprehensive analysis of research papers on ginseng to provide an overview of global ginseng research. The qualitative and quantitative interpretation was carried out using collected data of Panax species and six other herbal plants from the Web of Science^TM Core Collection. We summarized and classified them by country/territory and institutions based on the corresponding author's institution. The first ginseng paper appeared in 1905 and since then, 8,090 papers have been published until 2019. Among them 7,385 papers were published in recent 24 years from 1996 to 2019. It was 18 papers in 1980, 53 in 1990, 97 in 2000, 369 in 2010, and increased to 678 in 2019. Proportion of ginseng papers in total number of scientific papers were also greatly increased, namely, 0.0008% in 1970, 0.0044% in 1980, 0.101% in 1990, 0.0141% in 2000, and 0.0422% in 2019. 7,099 original research papers including notes and 286 review papers were published during last 24 years. Total 3,286 institutions in 78 countries and 1,274 journals contributed to the publication of ginseng papers. Korea was the leading country in ginseng papers up to 2013, however, China took over the top from 2014. Chinese institutions contributed 40.3% of total papers followed by Korea (34.7%), USA (6.0%), Japan (4.1%), and Canada (2.9%). Ginseng was the most studied medicinal plant during last 24 years followed by tea, garlic, ginkgo, and ginger whose number of papers were 6,499, 3,641, 2,590, and 1,945, respectively.

Purpose : In 1970, the Berlin-Frankfurt-Munster(BFM) group introduced an intensification therapy after remission induction to reduce relapse of acute lymphoblastic leukemia(ALL) in childhood. Delayed intensification(DI) phase has been included for treatment of ALL in our hospital since the mid-1990s. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the outcome with vs. without DI phase and the outcome with two vs. one DI phase for intermediate risk patients. Methods : One hundred and thirty nine children with ALL who were treated at the Department of Pediatrics of Wonju Christian Hospital and Yonsei University Medical Center between March, 1990 and July, 2002 were analysed retrospectively. Results : Thirty-eight patients were treated with a DI phase, and 101 patients were treated without a DI phase. Among the DI patients, seven patients were treated with a double DI phase. Five-year overall survival(OS) in the low, intermediate, and high risk groups were 68%, 66% and 58%, respectively. 5-year OS in DDI, DI, and control were 95%, 86% and 40%, respectively. In the low risk group, 5-year event free survival(EFS) in DI, and control were 94% and 58%, respectively. Conclusion : Delayed intensification improved EFS on childhood ALL in all risk groups.

Drug resistance of M. tuberculosis has been investigated with isolates from patients screened out of the sample population of the nationwide tuberculosis prevalence surveys or from the routine cultures. The results showed a close inverse relationship between prevalence of drug resistance and efficiency of the past or current treatment regimens of NTP. Individual drug resistance also showed a close relationship with the extent of use of the relevant drugs. Drug resistance was found in 38.0% of M. tuberculosis isolates from patients found in 1965 survey and remained unchanged until it increased upto 48.0% in 1980 survey. The resistance prevalence, however, dropped to 30.8% in 1985 and further to 25.3% in 1990 survey. Such decrease was fairly well coincided with a continuous increase of the treatment efficiency (from 60% in 1984 to 77% in 1989) in 1980s. Initial drug resistance also showed a similar trend, namely 26.2% in 1965, 23.9% in 1970, 20.1% in 1975, 30.6% in 1980, 17.4% in 1985, and 15.0% in 1990. The similar figures were observed in M. tuberculosis isolates from patients diagnosed in the routine services. Higher prevalence of initial drug resistance was observed among urban patients than rural patients and among young patients than old patients. These findings signify that a continuous survey on drug resistance permits to monitor efficiency of treatment programme of the country.

Most studies on regional economic impact have utilized employment or employment income data. Recently, a few scholars have noticed the importance of nonemployment income sources in urban economies. Using decennial census data on Arizona towns from 1970 to 1990, this paper first examines the increasing importance of nonempolyment income sources in urban economies and the associations of nonemployment income sources with elderly population and metropolitan location. Then, this paper investigates the impact of nonemployment income on urban growth in the framework of economic base model. The regression results show that the impact of nonemployment income is significant in the increase of nonbasic income and becomes greater over time, and that the impact of transfer over time, and that the impact of transfer income on nonbasic income of transfer income on nonbasic income is stronger in smaller towns and the impact of investment income is stronger in larger towns.

The trends of patents related to natural dyeing were examined in order to guide the development of natural dyeing into a high value-added technology. Total 181 patents data provided from KISTI were analyzed and following results were drawn. Korea had the overwhelming number of patents related to natural dyeing over Japan or United States of America from 1970 to 2007. In case of domestic, the number of patent applications were heavily focused on the metropolitan area in 1990's, but started to increase in the Honam region and Youngnam region in the first half of the year 2000 which indicated that the researches and the developments of natural dyeing were very active. In the case of foreign countries, most of their patent applications comes from the corporation such as a company while the number of patents applications from individuals overwhelms that of corporation in South Korea. Also, more of individuals' patent applications were denied than corporations' patents applications. The vegetable dye, a type of dyestuff which is a research subject for patent application, had the most research done above all other dyestuff.

The purpose of this study is to clarify both the characteristics of the spatial variations and structure and the logic of spatial differentiation of the renter farming in Korea. The renter farming has transformed its spatial structure from zonal to Thunen's rings-like pattern. This study also suggests that the spatial characteristics of the renter farming has been changed from the ecological and the tenantable to the economical and commercial. Although there is no single logic full explanation the order of such spatial differentiations, the logic of industrialization or neoclassical economics seems to be most effective.

수문학자들의 주요 관심사 중 하나인 정확한 면적 강우량을 파악하는데 있어서 강우레이더는 아주 우수한 첨단 장비이다. 그러나 S 밴드나 C 밴드 레이더를 고지대에서 운영하는 것은 많은 시설비와 운영비가 필요하다. 따라서 연구 및 대도시 소유역에 대한 강우 관찰 목적으로는 차량 탑재가 가능한 소형 X 밴드 레이더가 유용할 수 있다. X 밴드 전파는 강우 도래시 전파특성상 감쇠(減衰:attenuation)가 크며, 감쇠도는 강우강도에 영향을 받는다. 이를 극복하기 위한 이중-편파 이론이 1970년대에 제시되었으나, 기술적인 어려움으로 20여년이 지난 1990년대에 실무적용이 가능하게 되었다. 현재 이중-편파 레이더의 도입으로 감쇠보정 알고리듬이 성공적으로 개발되고 있으며, 그와 같은 발상의 전환은 차등위상(differential phase)에 의한 강우 측정방법 개발로 전파 감쇠에 영향을 받지 않는 강우 관측이 가능하게 하였다. 본 기사에서는 소형 X밴드 이중-편파(偏波) 레이더의 강우량 산정방법에 대하여 간략히 검토하고자 한다.

The production of nuclear energy from thorium which is non-fissile material was a main issue until the middle of 1970's, because of the thorium's abundance as energy resources, its capability of breeding fissile material U233, and the reduction of long-lived actinides. However, to use thorium as nuclear fuel, some obstacles such as the necessities of external neutron source and long-term neutron irradiation for effective breeding, and the production of high radioactive isotopes in the course of thorium breeding cycle should be overcome. The difficulties to resolve these cons of thorium cycle became the reason of interruption of the related researches in the middle of 1970's. But in the 21st century, the change of societal perspective regarding nuclear energy and the appearance of accelerator-driven nuclear reactor shift those cons into pros and rehabilitate the study of thorium. The high activity of thorium cycle turned out to be a good option as higher resistance and easier detectibility of nuclear proliferation and the employment of subcritical accelerator-driven reactor as external neutron sources is considered to enhance the nuclear safety. In this study we compare the thorium cycle with the currently-used uranium cycle and analyze the technical status and perspective of thorium researches which use accelerator-driven reactors.

Design becomes a source of new competitive power in the boundless global market so-called globalization. The competitive power in business was lied in the technology in 70's and the design was understood as a styling or graphic means. However, the design has become more important means to get the competitive power in business since 1980. World businesses have found the fact that it has a super competitive power to make the product's performance as well as its dignity rather than it is to determine the product's external view or color. The change of design policy in Phillips, one of the world's leading producers of electronic products, is not much different. Design manager's power was limited until 70's. However, Phillips has focused its business strategy on the higher competitive power since 1980 and they welcomed Robert Blaich, vice president of design and development at Herman Miller Inc., to be a member of the company, expanding the importance of design along with restructure while working on the globalization. Meanwhile, Stefano Marzano, a Senior Director in 90's, established a high design concept, working on the strategic futures to get customer-oriented and for successful commercialization. The vision of the future developed over 3 years until 1996 was to forecast 10 years coming up and create a new value while achieving the business target through the design as an innovative design in bracing for the information network era.
