Over one million cases of the induced abortion have been conducted annually in Korea. Among those cases, most of all were illegally done, but this has not been addressed in the literature. While Korean Nurse Association Code of Ethics presents the respect for life as one of the basic ideology, it was not dealt enough in nursing education. The purposes of the study were to activate the debate on the issues related to an induced abortion ; to introduce the related ethical theories ; and to seek the solution of the ethical problems, which will eventually result in establishing the morality of nursing practice. The ethical theories of an induced abortion have traditionally addressed two extreme perspectives ; the conservatives who emphasize the sanctity of human life and the right of life that will never ethically allow the killing fetus ; and the liberalists who insist the right to choice for women to control their body. Since these extreme theories has not been helpful to solve the ethical problems, the recent trend is leading to the modified theories both from conservative and liberal perspectives. The examples of the theories are the potentiality of fetus(Singer, 1993), the obligation of women to serve their body to fetus(Held, 1987), the Replacement theory (Callahan, 1987), and the Principle of Caring (Gilligan, 1982). The study conducted the indepth interviews with 17 women who experienced the induced abortion and the 6 cases were selected to be analyzed. The cases were analyzed and interpreted by using an integrated case method which was combined of the New Casuisty(Jonsen & Toulmin, 1988 ; Jonsen, 1991) and the Specified Principlism (Richardson, 1990 ; Degrazia, 1992). The result of analysis revealed three types of ethical problems ; (1) the responsibility of taking care of the baby to be born (2) the fear for the condition of the fetus, and (3) the choice of induced abortion as the method of birth control. The findings also revealed the related ethical principles for various situations ; the principle of caring was used for choosing an induced abortion by the subjects ; the principles of the potentiality of fetus and the obligation of women to serve their body were for the consideration for the life of fetus ; and the principle of replacement was utilized for the right to choice for women. The ethical principles related to an induced abortion introduced in the study provided the way to solve the moral problems by applying to the clinical situations for nurses. The study also revealed the possibility of modifying the current ethical theories from the method of applying the principles to the various situation in the study. The modified theories would be more useful to guide the clinical practice with similar ethical problems.

Our objective of current study was to investigate the development of bone and heart in association with diabetes mellitus (DM). DM was induced by administering an intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ; 60 mg/kg) to 4-week-old Sprague-Dawley rats. Body weight and blood glucose were monitored, and rats were sacrificed after 2 or 5 weeks. The left ventricle (LV), including the interventricular septum, was weighed, and body weight and tibial bone length were assessed. Young diabetic rats showed reduced growth in terms of tibial length and body weight compared to controls. Moreover, diabetic males showed more significant growth suppression and reduced LV size than diabetic females. Morphometric analysis of tibiae from diabetic rats revealed suppressed bone growth at 2 and 5 weeks, with no difference between genders. STZ-induced diabetes decreased bone growth and retarded pre-pubertal heart development. As a result, diabetes may increase cardiovascular risk factors and lead to eventual heart failure. Therefore, new therapeutic approaches are required for diabetic children exhibiting growth retardation. Heart growth factor, exercise, and cardiopulmonary physical therapy may be required to promote heart development and physiological function.

1T-DRAM cell with solid phase (SPC) crystallized poly-Si thin film transistor was fabricated and electrical characteristics were evaluated. The fabricated device showed kink effect by negative back bias. Kink current is due to the floating body effect and it can be used to memory operation. Current difference between "1" state and "0" state was defined and the memory properties can be improved by using gate induced drain leakage (GIDL) current.

This study was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of pumpkin powder in the diet of experimental animals on chemically induced stomach and mammary canceers. Three weeks old male SpragueDawley rats were randomly allocated to either 1) basal diet+MNNG, 2) basal diet+MNNG+PMC, 3) 2.5% pumpkin powder supplemented diet+MNNG+PMC, or 4) 5.0% pumpkin powder supplemented diet+MNNG+PMC for stomach cancer experiment. And female Sprague-Dawley(5 weeks old) rats were randomly assigned to either 1) basal diet only, 2) basal diet+DMBA, 3) 2.5% pumpkin powder supplemented diet+DMBA, or 4) 5.0% pumpkin powder supplementd diet+DMBA. In both experiments, supplements of pumpkin powder in basal diet decreased body weight of both male and female experimental animals. Pumpkin powder in rat diet decreased significantly(p<.05) chemically induced stomach cancer. With its suppressing effects on stomach cancer, pumpkin powder in diet of experimental rats had decreasing effects on the initiation and development of DMBA-induced mammary cancer. In conclusiion, current study may provide in vivo data to develop health foods using pumpkin. Further studies, however, are essential to clarify the exact role of pumpkin powder in chemically induced stomach and mammary cancers.

3차원 시뮬레이션을 이용하여 터널링 전계효과 트랜지스터(TFET)의 불순물 분포 변동(RDF) 효과에 대해 살펴보았다. TFET의 RDF 효과는 매우 낮은 바디 도핑 농도 때문에 많이 논의되지 않았다. 하지만 본 논문에서는 임의로 생성되고 분포되는 소스 불순물이 TFET의 문턱전압 ($V_{th}$)과 드레인 유기 전류 증가 (DICE), 문턱전압이하 기울기 (SS)의 변화를 증가시킴을 발견하였다. 또한, TFET의 RDF 효과를 감소시킬 수 있는 몇 가지 방법을 제시하였다.

본 논문에서는 인체 감지형 자기장 코일의 감지거리 13.4mm를 이용한 디지털 잠금장치 설계에 관한 연구를 하고자 한다. 현재 사용되는 디지털 잠금장치와는 다르게 실외 케이스는 기존의 고유번호 입력버튼, 조명, 보호 커버, 해당 pcb, 외곽 케이스, 데이터 전송 케이블 등이 삭제되고 구동전원 ON/OFF 스위치와 비상 단자로만 구성하였다. 실내 케이스는 내부에 설치 된 자기장 코일기판이 유리문 몸체에 밀착된 상태로 12mm 간격의 맞은편 실외에서 전송되는 전기적 저항 값을 감지하면 그에 대응하는 유도전류가 흐르게 된다. 이때, 해당 원형 코일의 주파수 변환이 이루어지면 자기장 코일은 센서의 역할을 수행하게 된다. 센서로서의 자기장 코일은 인체가 감지되기 전과 감지 후에 출력되는 발진 주파수의 크기 변화를 감지하고 2,000%이상 증폭시켜 디지털 신호로 변환 조합한 다음 전용 소프트웨어에 전송하여 내장된 고정 데이터와 비교하여 검색하는 역할을 한다. 연구결과 자기장 코일 $12.8{\emptyset}$ 기준으로 인체의 터치 면적에 따른 감지시간은 30% 대비 0.08sec, 80% 대비 0.03sec이며 감지거리는 13.4mm로 최고 수준으로 측정되었다.

We fabricated fully depleted (FD) SOI-based 1T-DRAM cells with planar channel or recessed channel and the electrical characteristics were investigated. In particular, the dependence of memory operating mode on the channel structure of 1T-DRAM cells was evaluated. As a result, the gate induced drain leakage current (GIDL) mode showed a better memory property for planar type 1T-DRAM. On the other hand, the impact ionization (II) mode is more effective for recessed type.

Induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells are generated by epigenetic reprogramming of somatic cells through the exogenous expression of transcription factors. Recently, the generation of iPS cells from patients with a variety of genetic diseases was found to likely have a major impact on regenerative medicine, because these cells self-renew indefinitely in culture while retaining the capacity to differentiate into any cell type in the body, thereby enabling disease investigation and drug development. This review focuses on the current state of iPS cell technology and discusses the potential applications of these cells for disease modeling; drug discovery; and eventually, cell replacement therapy.

Two impedance imaging systems of multi-frequency electrical impedance tomography (MFEIT) and magnetic resonance electrical impedance tomography (MREIT) are described. MFEIT utilizes boundary measurements of current-voltage data at multiple frequencies to reconstruct cross-sectional images of a complex conductivity distribution (${\sigma}+i{\omega}{\varepsilon}$) inside the human body. The inverse problem in MFEIT is ill-posed due to the nonlinearity and low sensitivity between the boundary measurement and the complex conductivity. In MFEIT, we therefore focus on time- and frequency-difference imaging with a low spatial resolution and high temporal resolution. Multi-frequency time- and frequency-difference images in the frequency range of 10 Hz to 500 kHz are presented. In MREIT, we use an MRI scanner to measure an internal distribution of induced magnetic flux density subject to an injection current. This internal information enables us to reconstruct cross-sectional images of an internal conductivity distribution with a high spatial resolution. Conductivity image of a postmortem canine brain is presented and it shows a clear contrast between gray and white matters. Clinical applications for imaging the brain, breast, thorax, abdomen, and others are briefly discussed.
