  • In this study, human mimic phantoms outputted by three-dimensional (3D) printing technology are reported. Polylactic acid and a personal 3D printer - fused deposition modeling (FDM) - are used as the main material and the printing device. The output of human mimic phantoms performed in the following order: modeling, slicing and G-code conversion, output variable setting, 3D output, and post-processing. The students' learning satisfaction (anatomical awareness, study interest) was measured on 5-point Likert scale. After that, Twenty of those phantoms were outputted. The total output took 11,691 minutes (194 hours 85 minutes) and the average output took 584.55 minutes (9 hours 7 minutes). The filament used for the experiment was 2,390.2 g, and the average use of the filament was 119.51 g. The learning satisfaction of anatomical awareness was 4.6 points on the average and the interest of the class was on average 4.5 points. It is expecting that 3D printing technology can enhance the learning effect of imaging anatomy education.

  • 'Gyejakjimo-Tang(桂芍知母湯)', which is composed of Cinnamon bark(桂枝), Peony root(芍藥), Anemarrhena root(知母) and other seven herbs, is described as antipyretic, diuretic and analgesic prescription in traditional medical literatures including Geumgwe-Yoryak(金櫃要略). So it is being used in the treatment of gout clinically in oriental region. As the results of the pharmacological and biochemical trials of the prescription, it was found to have antiinflammatory and significant analgesic effects indicated by carrageenin edema, dye permeabilities and writhing behavior. And it potentiated the output of uric acid in blood and the increase of uric acid in urine of alcohol-toxicated rats, which mean the decrease of uric acid level only by excretion procedure. But the prescription didn't show any effects on the activities of adenine/guanine deaminase, purine nucleoside phosphorylase, xanthine oxidase or uricase, which are related with formation and metabolism of uric acid.

  • Environmental pollution caused by power plant exhaust gas is highlighted and eco-friendly regulations are being strengthened. However, due to the abundant reserves and low prices of coal, still the most used for power generation in the world. Therefore, flexible operation of coal-fired power plants to reduce emissions has become an inevitable option. However, lowering the output increases the possibility of acid dew point corrosion as the exhaust gas temperature decreases. The dew point corrosion occurs when condensable gases such as SO3, HCl, NO2 and H2O cools below the saturation temperature. SO3 is already well known to cause severe low- temperature corrosion in coal-fired power plants. Therefore, this study aims to prevent damage that may occur during operation by analyzing the dew point and corrosion resistance with exhaust gas temperature and sulfuric acid concentration of the power plant economizer tube.

  • Radioactive liquid waste generated during operation and overhaul is collected and reused through the radioactive liquid waste treatment system and continuous monitoring system in the nuclear power plant or discharged to the outside if it satisfies the limit within the control and monitoring. However, there are concerns about boric acid management, which controls the power output of nuclear power plants in radioactive liquid waste. Due to the behavior of boric acid, it is difficult to remove it in the existing liquid radwaste system, and the concentration of boric acid water discharged tends to be higher than the natural state of 5 ppm, so additional facilities should be considered. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the radiological effects of radioactive waste treatment facilities that are under development and use them as a basis for managing worker exposure and evaluating the safety of facilities in the future.

  • This study was perfonned to investigate effectiveness eness on the gastritis and gastric lesion with the methanol extract of the flower buds of Eugenio caryophyllata. The extract was fractionated with hexane, chIorofonn, ethyl acetate, butanol, followed by bioassay Oil antigastritis. The ethyl acetate and the buthanol fraction reduced significantly HCI.ethanol induced gastric lesion at the dose of 165 and 215 mg/kg, p.o., respectively. These results may indicate that remarkably.effective are ethyl acetate and butanol fractions in HCI-ethanol induced gastric lesion. Howeever, the fractions didn't exhibit any inhibition of gastric secretion and acid output. The buthanol fraction reduced significantly the acetic acid induced ulcer at a daily dose of 215 mg/Kg, p.o., given for 10 days. These result showed considerable inhibit of acetic acid induced ulcer without inhibition of indomethacin induced gastric lesion. The methanol extract showed low acute toxicity with minimum lethal dose of more than 3000 mg/kg, p.o. in mice. In conclusion, Eugenia F10s exhibited antigastric activity which might be attributable to inhibition of gastric secretion. It is indicated that activie component may be present in the buthanol fraction.

  • Modifying the technique described by Schmidt, et al. (1972) the duodenum and stomach of female rats were perfused separately and contiunously with saline solution under urethane anesthesia. Secretory response of caerulein (Prof. V. Erspamer, F.I. 6934 Caerulein, Farmitalia, Italia), a gastrin or CCK-PZ like peptide, on acid, pepsin, bicarbonate and amylase were studied with and without simultaneous administration of secretin, CCK-PZ or other agents known secretory suppressives. A significant increase of acid, pepsin and amylase output was induced by intravenous infusion of caerulein. The response of acid secretion by caerulein in doses of 140 ng/100g/hr was equivalent to the response of histamine in the doses of $280\;{\mu}g/100g/hr$ and on a weight basis the potency of caerulein was approximately 2,000 times greater than histamine in rats. Acid secretory response of caerulein in the doses of 140 ng/100 g/hr was inhibited by simultaneous infusion of secretin in the doses of 0.2 u/ 100 g/hr, and the acid response was partly inhibited by concomitant infusion of histamine in the doses of $280\;{\mu}g/100g/hr$, but the response was enhanced by infusion of CCK-PZ in the doses of 0.2 u/100 g/hr. The secretory response of both aicd and enzymes were inhibited following administration of atropine in doses of 0.2 mg/100 g, but the response were not affected by hexamethonium in doses of 0.5 mg/100 g. In summary, it is concluded that caerolein is every effective in an increase of acid, pepsin and amylase secretion in rats through, possibly in part, the muscarinic and/or histaminic mechanism(s).

  • This study was conducted to investigate the effects of epinephrine and norepinephrine on basal gastric acid secretion and plasma gastrin and secretin concentration in the conscious rat. One hundred and eighty-four albino rats with gastric cannula were used after 18 hours or more of fast, with water ad libitum. In a restraint cage for collection of gastric juice, physiological saline (0.9% NaCl) was continuously infused into the jugular vein through a catheter for one hour at a rate of 1 ml/hr (control period). Immediately after the control period, epinephrine (1, 2, 4, 8 and $16{\mu}g/ml/hr)$, norepinephrine (1, 2, 4, 8 and $16{\mu}g/ml/hr)$ or physiological saline (1 ml/hr) was infused for another one hour. Gastric juice was collected at one hour interval for two hours infusion period. Adrenergic antagonists, phentolamine and propranolol were injected into the jugular vein 5 min prior to the infusion of epinephrine or norepinephrine at a dose of 0.2 mg/0.1 ml. Blood was sampled from the jugular vein for the radioimmunoassay of plasma gastrin and secretin after the collection of gastric juice. The results were as follows: 1) Both epinephrine and norephinephrine significantly increased gastric acid output in a dosedependent manner. 2) The effects of epinephrine and norepinephrine on the gastric acid secretion were antagonized by the pretreatment with phentolamine and propranolol. 3) Plasma gastrin and secretin concentrations were not significantly affected by the intravenous infusion of epinephrine and norepinephrine. It can be inferred from the above results that epinephrine and norepinephrine facilitate gastric acid secretion in conscious rats and the mechanism of which is attributed to ${\alpha}\;and\;{\beta}$ adrenergic receptors rather than gastrin and secretin.

  • The present study was designed to investigate whether there is a consistint changes in the signals from the central and autonomic nervous systim due to olfactory stimulation. The olfactory stimuli were 0.6% orange and 2.5% valeric acid and the stimuli through the olfactory stimulator soth controlled consistint flow, controlled concentration, and saturated with vapour to prevent drying the nasal mucosa. A room air blunk served as the control stimulus, EEG was recorede from 4channels according to the international 10-20 systim. Additionally, ECG, EOG, heart rate, skin conductance and resputation were recorded comtinuously. The fast Fourier transform analysis of EEG waves was analysed with the power spectra. Averaged power spectra were computed for the following frequency bands ; delta(0-4.5Hz), theta (4.5-7Hz), alphal(7-9.5Hz), alpha2 (9.5-12.5Hz) and beta(12.5-30Hz). Withthe results of the subjective sensibility test for the ordor, the orange was related to pleasant and familiar and the valeric acid was realted to snpleasant and bothersome. There is the difference between orange and valeric acid in alphal at PG2-A2 channel. While the unpleasant stimuli seem to be increased in alphal, alpha2 and beta waves at all channels. Also, the heart rate, galvaric skin resistance seem to be decreased by pleasant stimuli and thd unpleasant stimuli shdwed the opposite. In respiration, respiration rate had been declinig tendency, and input/output ampoitued and duration showed an upward trend by olfactory stimulation with orange, while opposite by valeric acid. In conclusion, the consistent EEG changes and the autonomic responses suggests the possibilities of the subjective signal of human sensibility.

  • The protective effect of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) on gastic ulcer induced in rats has been studied. Gastic ulceration was induced by hypothemic restraint stress or dicolofenac sodium. Gastic acid secretion and mucosal injury produced by the hypothemic restraint stress was greater as compared with those produced by diclofenac sodifum. ATP significantly reduced area of injury, however, increased cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cATP) content. Administration of dipyridamole along with ATP did not change the total lesion area in both models when compared to ATP alone. Aminophyline antagonized antagonized the protective effect of ATP on the injured area. Famotidine was found to be effective in reducing gastric acid output as well as the total injured area without any change in cAMP content when given along with ATP.
