Objectives : This study aimed to investigate the associations between physical disorders and prevalent/incident suicidal ideation in a community dwelling older population aged 65 years or over. Methods : 1204 people aged 65 years or over evaluated at baseline. Suicidal ideation was identified using the questions from the community version of the Geriatric Mental State Schedule ("GMS B3"). Reported physical disorders covering 11 common and generally chronic health problems were ascertained. Covariates included were depression, age, gender, years of education, accommodation status, past occupation, and current occupation. Of 1066 without suicidal ideation at baseline, 805 (76%) were followed 2 years later, and incident suicidal ideation was evaluated. Results : Prevalent suicidal ideation was significantly associated with 4 of 11 physical disorders: eyesight problems, persistent cough, heart disease and paralysis or weakness in one leg or arm. Incident suicidal ideation was associated with 3 physical disorders: asthma, high blood pressure and paralysis or weakness in one leg or arm. Both prevalent and incident suicidal ideation were significantly associated with increased number of physical disorders. Conclusions : Certain physical disorders were comorbid and precipitating factors of suicidal ideation in elders. And appropriate intervention and treatment of physical disorders might prevent suicidal ideation in elderly.

This study is aimed to find the scouring mechanism at the toe of rubble mound structures. To investigate the characteristics of scouring in front of the structure, experiments were performed with regular waves in a 2-D flume. The results of this study are as follows. 1) It can be said the characteristics of incident wave causes rolling and sliding of armour block. The difference of wave pressure on the slope, internal flow as well as settlement of armour block due to the weight cause scouring. 2) It is observed that scouring depth at the toe increased when wave height or period increased. The location of ultimate scouring and deposition depth moved seaward when wave period increased. 3) The failure of rubble mound structure was caused by waves or scouring. Failure by erosion increased with high waves and long waves. 4) Using surf-similarity parameter including characteristics of incident waves and structure, scouring and deposition pattern were found and their limit was formulated.

Intervalence subband absroption of normally incident infrared radiation in p-type InGaAs-InAlAs coupled quantum well (CQW) is theoretically investigated by the multiband effective mass formalism. By solving a 4*4 luttinger-kohn hamitonian, we calculate valence subband structures, intervalence subband transition matrix elements, and absorption coefficient spectrum in the CQW which consists of a wider well, a thinner well and a barreir between them. Using the flexible design parameters given to the valence band CQW structure, we show that the absorption coefficient profile can be tailored. For a carefully designed CQW, theabsorption coefficient cn be made to maintain a large value over a wider wavelength range of incident infrared radiation compared with that shown in intersubband absorption in usual single quantum well.

양전자 방출 CT에서는 고해상도를 얻기 위해서 즙은 폭의 검출기와 충분히 큰 검출효률이 동시에 요구된다. 검출기의 폭을 수 mm까지 줄이면 검출기준이 급감소하고 누설률이 급상승하여 이를 사용함이 인난하여진다. 특히 사각으로 입사하는 포톤의 경우 후각하다. 이를 해결하는 방법으로 쐐기형 검출기를 제안하였고 이에 관련된 문제들을 탐구하였다. 4∼8mm BGO 검출기의 쐐기형을 사용한 시스템이 종미 요육양체형을 사용한 시스템보다 해상도가 증가하였다. 예를들면 회 8mm의 BGO 검출기 200개를 난제하게 배치한 시스템이 이점 샘플링할 경우 쐐기형의 해상도가 5.4mm FWHM으로 같은 조건의 직육면체형의 6.6mm FWHM보다 향상됨을 시뮬레이션으로 확인하였다. 3∼7mm FWHM의 초고해상도 시스템의 검출기에 대하여 형태와 크기에 따른 특성도 시뮬레이션으로 구하여 제시하였다. The high resolution of positron emission tomography, in particular, requires the use of detector crystals of narrow width but still with sufficiently high detection efficiency. If the crystal width is reduced to several millimeters, degradation of detection efficiency and leakage coefficient becomes significant, particularly in case of obliquely incident photons. Alleviation of such a problem can be made possible by modification of the detector shape from the conventional rectangular type to a wed농e type. The Proposed wedge shape makes the absorption length longer for obliquely incident photons, thus increasing the detection efficiency and suppressing leakage coefficient. For the BGO detectors of 4-8mm width, the computer simulation result of the system using wedge detectors reveals resolution improvement to the system using conventional detectors. For the system composed of 200 BGO detectors of 8mm width with 2 point sampling motion, the simulation resolution system using conventional detectors. For the very high resolution system of 3-7mm FWHM, the characteristics of the detector shape and size is studied by computer simulation.

진단용 X선 영상에서 산란선은 화질을 열화시키는 주요한 원인이다. X선 장치는 필름/스크린을 사용한 아날로그 시스템부터 Imaging plate (IP) 및 평판 검출기(Flat panel detector; FPD)를 사용한 디지털 시스템으로 바뀌어 가고 있다. 그러나 산란 X선 제거를 위한 Grid는 아날로그 시대에 사용됐던 구조부터 큰 변화가 없다. 본 논문에서는 선행연구에서 고안된 산란선 제거율을 향상시키기 위한 간접변환형 평판검출기의 새로운 구조를 다양한 입사 X선을 사용하는 임상현장에서의 활용 가능성을 검토했다. 일반적으로 FPD는 3개의 층으로 구성되어 있다. 신호를 검출하는 화소와 화소 사이에는 전압을 거는 voltage line이나 데이터를 전달하는 data line과 같은 X선 불감영역이 존재한다. 선행연구에서는 이 불감영역에 정확히 맞추어 방사선 불 투과성의 납을 그물 모양으로 substrate layer에 삽입함으로서 검출기 자체가 산란선 제거 효과가 있도록 설계하였다. 새로운 구조의 임상 유용성을 평가하기 위해, 삽입된 그물 모양의 납을 입사 X선에 대해 가로, 세로성분으로 나누어 각각의 성능을 확인하였으며, 동시에 납의 높이를 변화시켜 납 높이가 성능에 미치는 영향을 영상 대조도와 grid 노출 인자를 통해 검토했다. 검출기면에 대해 대각선으로 입사한 X선($0^{\circ}$, $15^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$)에 대해서, 입사 X선에 대해 평행한 가로성분이 세로 성분에 비해 높은 영상 대조도와 낮은 그리드 노출 인자를 나타냈으며, 세로성분의 납 높이가 높을수록 본 연구에서 고안한 검출기에 악영향을 미치는 것을 확인했다. 그러므로 본 연구에서 고안한 새로운 FPD 시스템은 FPD의 구조를 방사선검사 조건과 목적에 맞추어 최적화함으로써 임상 의료현장에서의 사용 가능성이 확인되었다.

Objectives: Recently, the American Diabetes Association (ADA) redefined the criteria of prediabetes, which has lowered the diagnostic level of fasting plasma glucose (FPG) from 110 to 125 mg/dl, down to levels between 100 to 125mg/dl. The purpose of this study was to determine the predictive cutoff level of FPG as a risk for the development of diabetes mellitus in Korean men. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 11,423 (64.5%) out of 17,696 males $\leq$30 years of age, and who met the FPG of $\leq$125 mg/dl and hemoglobin A1c of $\leq$ 6.4% criteria, without a history of diabetes, and who were enrolled at the screening center of a certain university hospital between January and December 1999. The subjects were followed from January 1999 to December 2002 (mean follow-up duration; 2.3(${\pm}0.7$) years). They were classified as normal (FPG <100mg/dl), high glucose (FPG $\geq$100mg/dl and <110mg/dl) and impaired fasting glucose (FPG $\geq$110mg/dl and $\leq$125mg/dl) on the basis of their fasting plasma glucose level measured in 1999. We compared the incidence of diabetes between the 3 groups by performing Cox proportional hazards model and used receiver operating characteristic analyses of the FPG level, in order to estimate the optimal cut-off values as predictors of incident diabetes. Results: At the baseline, most of the study subjects were in age in their 30s to 40s (mean age, 41.8(${\pm}7.1$) year). The incidence of diabetes mellitus in this study was 1.19 per 1,000 person-years (95% CI=0.68-1.79), which was much lower than the results of a community-based study that was 5.01 per 1,000 person-years. The relative risks of incident diabetes in the high glucose and impaired fasting glucose groups, compared with the normal glucose group, were 10.3 (95% CI=2.58-41.2) and 95.2 (95% CI= 29.3-309.1), respectively. After adjustment for age, body mass index, and log triglyceride, a FPG greater than 100mg/dl remained significant predictors of incident diabetes. Using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, the optimal cutoff level of FPG as a predictor of incident diabetes was 97.5 mg/dl, with a sensitivity and a specificity of 81.0% and 86.0%, respectively. Conclusion: These results suggest that lowering the criteria of impaired fasting glucose is needed in Korean male adults. Future studies on community-based populations, including women, will be required to determine the optimal cutoff level of FPG as a predictor of incident diabetes.

Ovaries from total 192 slaughtered cows(154 Korean native cows and 38 Holstein cows) were collected during the slaughtering process in Kimhae, Changyoung and Yangsan abattoirs in Kyungnam province from January 2001 to January 2002. In order to investigate incidence of the ovarian cysts, anatomical, histological observations were performed and also TUNEL methods and PCNA antibody by immunogistochemical methods for diagnostic accuracy of cysts in a few ovaries were applied. Apoptotic positive cells by TUNEL method appeared not or a few in cystic walls but appeared more number in normal large follicular walls and the proliferative positive cells by PCNA antibody appeared numerous in normal large follicular walls but not or a few in cystic walls. The incident rates of ovarian cysts were 19.5% in Korean native cows and 18.4% in Holstein cows. The incident rates of ovarian cysts in Holstein cows were lower than that of Koran native cows. The incident rates of follicular cysts and luteal cysts in Korean native cows were 11.7% and 7.8% respectively. The incident rates of follicular cysts and luteal cysts in Holstein cows were 10.5% and 7.9%, respectively. Higher incidence proportions of ovarian cysts according to seasons in Korean native cows were ordered as spring (29.8%), autumn (21.4%) winter (14.3%) and summer (6.7%). Rates of cows with single cyst and multiple cysts were 63.3%(19 heads /30 heads) and 36.7%(11 heads/30 heads) in 30 cystic Korean native cows, respectively. Cystic cows with corpus luteums were 50.0%(15 heads) in 30 Korean native cows and 42.9%(3 heads) in 7 dairy cows, respectively. Among 15 cystic Korean native cows with corpus luteums, rates of cows with single corpus luteum were 66.7%(10 heads) and rates of multiple corpus luteum were 33.3%(5 heads ), respectively. The average diameter of cysts and corpus luteums in cystic ovaries were 21.0$\times$17.1 mm and 18.1$\times$13.8 mm in 30 Korean native cows and 20.6$\times$17.7 mm and 19.3 $\times$ 14.9 mm in 7 Holstein cows, respectively. So the average sizes of cysts in cystic ovaries were larger than those of corpus luteums.
