It has been well established that aluminum (Al) inhibits root tip growth rapidly in acid soil. We report the correlation between Al induced growth inhibition and impaired $H^+-flux$ in mung bean (Vigna radiate L. cv. Kumsung). The root growth inhibition was dependent on Al concentration (0, 10, 25, 50, $100{\mu}M$) and exposure time (12 and 24 h). Using Hematoxylin staining, it was observed that the root damage was occurred preferentially in regions with high Al accumulation. Using the pH indicator, it was shown that the surface pH of root tip was strongly alkalized in the control whereas changed only slightly in the $50{\mu}M$ Al-treated root. The $H^+-ATPase$ activity of plasma membrane vesicles was inhibited by 56% in the Al-treated roots compared to control root. Decrease in the amount of the plasma membrane $H^+-ATPase$ (100 kDa) translation in the plant roots under Al stress was demonstrated by Western blot analysis. These results indicate that the dynamics of $H^+-flux$ across the root tip play an important role in root growth under Al stress.
Objectives : Type D personality was originally introduced to study the role of personality in predicting outcomes of heart disease. However, researches showed that other medical conditions are also affected by this personality. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between type D personality and somatic symptom complaints in depressive patients. Methods : Eighty-two individuals diagnosed with depressive disorder were included. Type D personality was measured with DS14. Patient Health Questionnaire(PHQ) 9 and 15 were used to measure depression severity and somatization tendencies. For alexithymia, TAS-20 was used. Student T-test and linear regression analysis were performed. The best regression model was determined by stepwise variable selection. Results : More than half of the subjects(56%) complained at least medium degree somatic symptoms according to PHQ-15 criteria. Two-thirds of the subjects were classified as Type D personality(63.4%). The mean PHQ-15 score of the Type D individuals was significantly higher than the remaining subjects(PHQ-15 mean=12.7, $p=8.2{\times}10^{-7}$). The best regression model included age, PHQ-9 score and NA subscale score as predictor variables. Among these, only the coefficients of age($p=1.5{\times}10^{-3}$) and NA score($p=1.5{\times}10^{-7}$) were found to be statistically significant. Conclusions : The result showed that Type D personality was one of the strong predictors of somatic complaints among depressive individuals. The finding that negative affectivity rather than social inhibition was more closely associated with somatization tendencies does not fully agree with the traditional explanation that inability to express negative emotion predispose the individuals to somatic symptoms. The finding that alexithymia was not shown to be a significant predictors also substantiated this discrepancy. However, it might be possible that the high correlation between NA and SI subscore(r=0.65) and between NA and TAS-20 score(r=0.44) hid the additional effects of social inhibition and alexithymia. Further research with a larger sample would be needed to investigate the effects of the latter two components over and above the effect of negative affectivity on the somatic complaints in depressive patients.
Nowadays there were two tendencies of studies about prognostic factors in stroke. One way was to define prognostic factors according to the radiological features. And the other way was to define according to the mental state, recognition, perception, motors, language, urinary&bowel incontinence etc.. The former could be objectively investigated, while the latter was difficult. The purpose of this study was to determine which variables would be predictors of stroke and which factors would be affect predictions most. The subjects of this study were 32 patients who were admitted to the Dept. of Internal Medicine, Dongguk Univ. College of Oriental Medicine whthin 48 hours from attack, Medical records were reviewed FIM, CNS, NIH stroke scale. We compared each sub-items of FIM, CNS, NIH stroke scale about mental state, recognition, perception, motors, language, urinary&bowel incontinence with MBI score at 4 weeks from admission. Also, we analyzed the correlations of sub-items and groups which devided into 5 according to independence of MBI score. And we found out the most influent factors with multiple regression analysis. The major results were as follows; 1. In mean of MBI score at 4 weeks of each groups devided low, middle, high score at mental state, recognition, perception, motors, language, urinary&bowel incontinence items, there were statistical differences in all items. 2. The mental state and lim ataxia sub-items had no significant correlations with groups divided according to independence of MBI score. All the other items were significantly correlated. 3. The most influent factors was recognition. The second was sensory and the third was bowel incontinence. 4. The most influent scales was FIM, and the second was CNS, and NlH had no statistical significancy.
To evaluate the relationship between dynamics of Cyanobacterial bloom and rainfalls, a monthly monitoring of water quality and phytoplankton from the three serial lakes (Lake Ui-am, Lake Chung-pyeong and Lake Pal-dang) in the North Han River System were examined 12 times from May 2012 to March 2013. A dense bloom of cyanobacterium Anabaena spp., was occurred over three lakes in the summer season of 2012. In Lake Ui-am, the Anabaena population appeared in June, showed a peak in July (43,850 cells $mL^{-1}$) and disappeared in November 2012. In Lake Chung-pyeong and Lake Pal-dang, Anabaena population commonly appeared in July, showed the peaks (31,648 cells $mL^{-1}$ and 7,136 cells $mL^{-1}$, respectively) in August, and entirely disappeared in September 2012. Over the three lakes, the phytoplankton community was commonly dominated by diatoms before Monsoon, cyanobacteria during Monsoon, and diatoms after Monsoon, respectively, indicating a Monsoon-dependent succession. A correlation analysis revealed that dynamics of Anabaena population was strongly related with rainfall (r=0.72, r=0.83, r=0.88, P<0.01 for three lakes), and partly with nutrients, inflow and outflow of lakes. Therefore, this study indicates that the outbreak and destruction of Anabaena bloom in North Han River System between 2012 and 2013 was impacted by rainfalls. However, a high density of cyanobacteria in Lake Ui-am remained after Monsoon, and thus, may paroduce bad-order and toxins from phytoplankton.
Purpose: Cricopharyngeal incoordination is a rare cause of swallowing difficulties in newborns and infants; it is characterized by delayed pharyngeal contractions related to cricopharyngeal relaxation. Dysphagia and repeated aspiration are common findings despite normal sucking. We conducted this study to assess the clinical features of cricopharyngeal incoordination in newborns and infants. Methods: An analysis of the clinical data from 17 patients with cricopharyngeal incoordination who were admitted to the Department of Pediatrics, Pusan National University Hospital, between 2000 and 2006 was conducted retrospectively. The diagnosis of cricopharyngeal incoordination was established by the clinical characteristics and the videofluoroscopic swallowing studies. Results: The male to female ratio was 1:1.1 (males 8, females 9) the age range 1 to 60 days. The body weight of 11 patients (64.7%) was less than the $10^{th}$ percentile at diagnosis. Six patients (35.3%) were born prematurely. The associated anomalies or diseases were chromosomal anomaly (2 cases), congenital heart disease (3 cases), and laryngomalacia, hypoxic brain damage or neonatal seizures (1 case each). The chief complaints of patients were recurrent aspiration pneumonia (10 cases), feeding difficulty (9 cases), dyspnea (4 cases), and chocking (4 cases). The severity of aspiration on the videoesophagogram or esophagogram was mild in 12 cases. The correlation between the severity of aspiration and the duration of tube feeding after the diagnosis was significant (p<0.05). Conclusion: Cricopharyngeal incoordination should be considered in the differential diagnosis of newborns and infants, without known risk factors associated with swallowing dysfunction, when they present with unexplained respiratory problems. Although the prognosis of cricopharyngeal incoordination is good, early diagnosis and tube feeding are recommended to prevent the complications associated with this disorder.
The purpose of this study was to compare 10th grade students' understanding of concepts about the plates' motions depending on the different spatial ability. Based on previous studies and literature reviews, two instruments were selected and used in this study. The Spatial Perception Test developed in Korean Testing Center was applied to measure students' spatial ability. Another instrument for testing students' understandings of plates' motions consists of a total of 10 items. The instruments were distributed to 118 students who were 10th graders in metropolitan city. The results are as follows: First, a correlation coefficient between conceptual understanding of plates' motions and spatial ability was r=0.439 (p<.01). It indicates that conceptual plates' motions and spatial ability have a moderate relationship. The students were divided into two groups (high and low) by spatial ability. The independent t-test was performed and reveals that the statistically significant difference between high and low groups. On the other hand, the 6 students (3 higher spatial ability students and 3 lowers) were selected and interviewed individually to find the differences in their understanding of the concept of plates' motions. The findings from interviews indicate that most students recognized about concepts of trench and ocean ridge, a rise and drop of the mantle, and divergent and convergent boundaries. However, students had misconceptions about section of trench and ocean ridge. In addition, the students who had higher spatial ability knew the more proper concepts about the creation and extinction of plate, crustal movements, and bottom of the ocean extension, whereas the students who had the lower spatial ability had misconceptions.

Purpose : To analysis each clinical results after arthroscopic ACL reconstruction with using variable fixatives which are metallic and bioabsorbable interference screw, and RIGIDfix. Therefore, We reported the clinical reliability and safty of ACL reconstruction using RIGIDfix. Materials and Methods : We evaluated the results of arthroscopic ACL resconstruction with patellar tendon autograft among three groups, of which group 1 is used metal interference screw for 44 patients, group 2 used bioabsorbable interference screw for 47 patients, group 3 used RIGIDfix for 42 patients. We compared the clinical results by physical examination (anterior drawer test, Lachman test and pivot shift test), Lysholm score and KT-2000 arthrometer and compared the radiological results by measurement of tunnel and fixatives position and widening and by MRI findings. We analyzed the results by SAS 8.2 Ducan. Tukey and paired t-test Results : Physical instability was in 5 cases, which group 2 had 4 cases and group 3 had 1 case. Lysholm score improved from 59.8. 64.4, 61 to 90.1, 92.3. 92. KT-2000 arthrometer instability improved from 9.20, 10.2, 9.5 to 1.43. 1.62. 2.00 (p=0.478). Radiologically, all cases had excellent tunnel position and cyst change was observed the 8 cases in the group 2, but, all 20 cases 2nd MRI had signal change of peri-fixatives. But, no correlation of clinical results. Conclusion : No statistical difference of clinical instability was found among three groups. And femoral tunnel changes were much observed in group I, II than III. We considered the RIGIDfix has much advantages because the short operation time, better fixation position and much bone contact surface. But, further long term follow up study was needed.
Purpose: Intussusception is the most common cause of intestinal obstruction in young children. Although intussusceptions are easily treated, some intussusceptions with or without a pathologic lead point (PLP) often recur. In this study, we analyzed the clinical characteristics and prognosis of recurrent intussusceptions (RI), the frequency of the PLP, and correlation between RI with PLP. Methods: The medical records of 144 patients, among 590 patients with intussusceptions who had been admitted to the Department of Pediatrics and Pediatric Surgery of Dankook University Hospital between May 1994 and June 2009 were reviewed retrospectively. Results: The overall recurrence rate of intussusceptions in this study was 9.2%. The mean interval between the initial occurrence and the first recurrent attack was 130${\pm}$175 days (range, 12 hours to 3 years). There was no statistically significant difference in the recurrence rate among patients who underwent air, barium, and manual reduction (p=0.131). Eighty-seven cases (92.6%) of RI had a successful reduction by the use of non-operative techniques. A PLP was present in 18 patients (3.0%). The most common PLP was intestinal lymphoid hyperplasia, followed by Meckel's diverticulum, duplication cyst, intestinal polyp, and adenomyoma. The mean number of intussusceptions was 4.7${\pm}$1.9 in 7 patients with PLP, which was significantly higher than (2.4${\pm}$0.9) patients without a PLP (p=0.023). The mean duration of recurrences was 17.4${\pm}$19.8 months (range, 2 days to 72 months). Conclusion: A careful search for a PLP should be performed to prevent recurrence of intussusception, especially when intussusception has recurred more than three times.
Incubation and pot studies were conducted with upland soils for a study on determination of the lime requirement based on exchangeable alumium content. The results obtained are as follows; 1. Results of chemical analysis of upland soils show that pH varies from 5.0 to 5.4, and exchangeable Al moves with the range of 1.3-3.0m.e/100gr. Exchangeable Al decreases with years of cultivation. 2. Incubation studies shows that on acid mineral soils almost all exchangeable Al, on average 95% was neutralized with the lime to neutralized 100% exchangeable Al. On volcanic ash soil, however, only 65.5% was neutralized with the lime estimated to neutralize the equivalent of 200% exchangeable Al. The latter has required more lime. 3. The pH of mineral soils is on the average increased from an initial 5.2 to 6.3 when 95% of exchangeable Al is neutralized, whereas that on volcanic ash soil is increased from an initial 5.3 to 5.5 only when lime is applied at rate to neutralize the equivalent of 200% exchangeable Al. 4. A high correlation coefficient (r=0.99) was obtained between exchangeable Al and exchangeable acidity. This indicates that exchangeable acidity is primarly a result of exchangeable Al. 5. In pot experiments with soybean cultivated on one of the hill land soils (Songjoong soil) the application of fused phosphate and triple superphosphate based on a 5% saturation rate ($P_2O_5$ 32.1 kg/10a) showed that the liming factor for calculation of the optimum lime requirements based on exchangeable acidity was 0.594 for fuses phosphate or 1.132 for tripple superphosphate, and optimum pH is approximately 6.0 and optimum neutralization rate of exchangeable Al is 80-90%.
BACKGROUND: The carbon (C) isotope ratio (${\delta}^{13}C$) of dissolved organic C (DOC) is an indicator of water pollution source. In this study, the potential use of two pre-treatments for the ${\delta}^{13}C$ analysis, alkaline persulfate oxidation coupled with carbonate precipitation (precipitation) and freeze drying (drying), were compared to suggest a more feasible pre-treatment method. METHODS AND RESULTS: Two reference materials with different ${\delta}^{13}C$ values were used for the experiments; chemical grade glucose ($-12.0{\pm}0.02$‰) and pig manure compost extract ($-23.3{\pm}0.04$‰). In the precipitation method, the measured ${\delta}^{13}C$ values were consistently lower than the theoretically calculated values as dissolved $CO_2$ could not be removed due to the alkaline property of the reagents and the dissolution of air $CO_2$ into the alkaline solution. The drying method also resulted in more negative ${\delta}^{13}C$ than the calculated ${\delta}^{13}C$; however, the difference was systematic ($3.9{\pm}0.3$‰) and there was a strong correlation (${\delta}^{13}C_{calculated}=0.87{\times}{\delta}^{13}C_{measured}-0.624$, $r^2=0.98$) between the calculated and measured ${\delta}^{13}C$. Calibration of ${\delta}^{13}C$ using the relationship between the calculated and the measured ${\delta}^{13}C$ values produced reliable and accurate ${\delta}^{13}C$ values. CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that the drying method is more accurate pre-treatment method to minimize the influence of air $CO_2$ compared to the precipitation method for the determination of ${\delta}^{13}C$ of DOC.
