Antlers from deer species are alternative animal by-products. Due to the oriental trade, the velvet antler industry is rapidly emerging in North America. The unique biological property of antler wish a deciduous natural phenomenon offers the valuable model of biomedical research. Growing antlers showed different structures according to cell populations consisting of mesenchymes, chondroblasts, chondrocytes and osseous tissues from distal to proximal portions of main beam. Their structures were different from two tissues, cartilage and bone, in growing antlers. Zone of maturing ants calcifying chondrocytes referred as upper section was invaded by osteoblasts indicating the occurrence of endochondral ossification. The cartilaginous tissues were gradually replaced by osseous tissues downward. The bony tissues referred as the middle and base sections in this thesis contained spongy bone and cortical bone structure in the difference of the degree of mineralization antral the thickness of cortical bony in adjacent to outer velvet layer. In addition, the endocrinological regulators such as testosterone, prolactin, growth hormones and other growth factors are actively involved in the unique deciduous nature shown in the growth and development of antler.

캐나다 알버타주의 로키산맥에 위치한 데본기 Cairn층은 일부 탄화수소의 저류층이 발달되어 있다. 그러나 연구지역의 Cairn층은 전체적으로 속성작용을 여러 차례에 걸쳐 받아서 공극이나 투수율이 낮아 저류층으로서 좋은 품질의 특성을 보여주지 못하고 있다. 이번 연구는 데본기 Cairn층의 지화학적 특성을 규명하여 캐나다 오일샌드 및 탄산염암 비투멘에 대한 석유탐사 기초자료로 활용하는 데에 그 목적이 있다. Cairn층에 대한 Rock-Eval 열분석 결과는 총 유기탄소 함량이 0.3 wt.% 이하로 매우 낮아 비투멘이나 다른 탄화수소의 함량이 매우 낮음을 가리킨다. 원소분석 결과도 유기탄소보다는 대부분 무기탄소(10.9~13.3 wt.%)로 존재하고 있음을 보여 준다. Cairn층의 구성광물은 반자형 내지 타형의 돌로마이트가 대부분이고 일부 시료에서 비투멘의 성분이 전체적으로 매우 낮은 농도로 분산되어 있다. 구성광물 사이 공극의 직경은 $nm{\sim}{\mu}m$로 다양하나 결정들의 구조가 대부분 치밀한 편이다. XRF의 주성분 변화를 보면 Cairn층의 상하부 경계면에서 쇄설성 퇴적물의 유입이 상대적으로 증가하였음을 알 수 있는데, 이는 탄산염암이 생물학적으로 활발하게 형성되던 시기의 전후로 일정 양의 쇄설성 퇴적물의 유업으로 인하여 퇴적환경이 변하였음을 지시한다. Cairn층은 전체적으로 여러 차례의 속성작용을 받았으며, 이 결과로 탄산염암은 대부분 돌로마이트화 되었다. 특히, Ca/Mg 비의 경향성과 방해석의 포함 정도 등을 보면 Cairn층의 속성작용은 여러 시기로 구분할 수 있으며, 이러한 결과는 퇴적환경의 변화, 교질작용과 재결정 정도, 해수 이외의 다른 속성수의 영향 등이 원인일 가능성이 높다.

Background: Fearful and anxious patients who find dental treatment intolerable without sedative and analgesic support may benefit from moderate sedation. Target controlled infusion (TCI) pumps are superior to bolus injection in maintaining low plasma and effect-site concentration variability, resulting in stable, steady-state drug concentrations. We evaluated the safety and efficacy of moderate sedation with remifentanil and propofol using TCI pumps in non-hospital dental settings. Methods: A prospective chart review was conducted on 101 patients sedated with propofol and remifentanil using TCI pumps. The charts were completed at two oral surgeons and one general dentist's office over 6 months. Hypoxia, hypotension, bradycardia, and over-sedation were considered adverse events and were collected using Tracking and Reporting Outcomes of Procedural Sedation (TROOPS). Furthermore, patient recovery time, sedation length, drug dose, and patient satisfaction questionnaires were used to measure sedation effectiveness. Results: Of the 101 reviewed sedation charts, 54 were of men, and 47 were of women. The mean age of the patients was 40.5 ±18.7 years, and their mean BMI was 25.6 ± 4.4. The patients did not experience hypoxia, bradycardia, and hypotension during the 4694 min of sedation. The average minimum Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) and heartbeats were 75.1 mmHg and 60.4 bpm, respectively. 98% of patients agreed that the sedation technique met their needs in reducing their anxiety, and 99% agreed that they were satisfied with the sedation 24 hours later. The average sedation time was 46.9 ± 55.6 min, and the average recovery time was 12.4 ± 4.4 min. Remifentanil and propofol had mean initial effect-site concentration doses of 0.96 µ/.ml and 1.0 ng/ml respectively. The overall total amount of drug administered was significantly higher in longer sedation procedures compared to shorter ones, while the infusion rate decreased as the procedural stimulus decreased. Conclusion: According to the results of this study, no patients experienced adverse events during sedation, and all patients were kept at a moderate sedation level for a wide range of sedation times and differing procedures. The results showed that TCI pumps are safe and effective for administering propofol and remifentanil for moderate sedation in dentistry.

본 논문에서는 캐나다 중서부에 위치한 BC(British Columbia)주 및 AB(Alberta)주의 수용가 전력설비에 대한 전기안전 시스템에 대해 고찰하였다. 캐나다의 전기안전은 주정부 권한을 위임받은 안전청에서 담당하며, 세부적인 안전관리는 각 주마다 절차 상 약간의 차이는 있었지만, 전체적으로 전기안전이라는 큰 틀 안에서 동일한 맥락으로 통제되고 있었다. 또한, 국내에 비해 전기안전 교육 프로그램 및 홍보가 상당히 강화되어 있음을 알 수 있었다.

We analyze the buckling of a thin elastic plate due to intrinsic stresses in thin films attached to the surfaces of the plate. In the case of cylindrical buckling, it is shown that for a plate with clamped edges compressive intrinsic film stresses can cause flexural buckling of the plate, while tensile intrinsic film stresses cannot. For a plate with free edges, film intrinsic stresses, compressive or tensile, cannot cause buckling.

The paper proposes that the Basic Concepts Classification (BCC) could serve as the controlled vocabulary for the Semantic Web. The BCC uses a synthetic approach among classes of things, relators, and properties. These are precisely the sort of concepts required by RDF triples. The BCC also addresses some of the syntactic needs of the Semantic Web. Others could be added to the BCC in a bottom-up process that carefully evaluates the costs, benefits, and best format for each rule considered.

ZORA-DFT calculations of $^{11}$B EFG (electric field gradient) tensors for lithium borates, LiB$_3O_5$ (LBO) and Li$_2B_4O_7$ (LTB), were performed. The calculated values of 11B quadrupole coupling constant and asymmetry parameter are in good agreement with the experimental values. The sign of the quadrupole coupling constant for the tetrahedral boron site was deduced from the distortion from the ideal tetrahedral symmetry.

In this paper, we investigate harmonic univalent functions convex in the direction 𝜃, for 𝜃 ∈ [0, 𝜋). We find bounds for |f_z(z)|, ${\mid}f_{\bar{z}}(z){\mid}$ and |f(z)|, as well as coefficient bounds on the series expansion of functions convex in a given direction.

We are concerned with finding a common solution to an equilibrium problem associated with a bifunction, and a constrained convex minimization problem. We propose an iterative fixed point algorithm and prove that the algorithm generates a sequence strongly convergent to a common solution. The common solution is identified as the unique solution of a certain variational inequality.
