Negative-differential conductance (NDC) characteristics as well as negative-differential trans-conductance (NDT) characteristics have been observed in the room temperature I-V characteristics of Field-induced Inter-band Tunneling Effect Transistors (FITETs). These characteristics have been explained with inter-band tunneling physics, from which, inter-band tunneling current flows when the energy bands of degenerately doped regions align, and it does not flow when they don't. FITET is an SOI device and the body region is not directly connected to the external terminal. Therefore, Fermi energy in the body region is determined by electrical coupling among four regions - gate, source, drain and substrate. So, a quasi Fermi energy of the majority carriers in the floating body region can be changed by external voltages, and this causes the energy band movements in the body region, which determine whether the energy bands between degenerately doped junctions aligns or not. This is a key point for an explanation of NDT and NDC characteristics. In this paper, a quasi Fermi energy movement in the floating body region of FITET was investigated by a device simulation. This result was applied for the description of relation between quasi Fermi energy in the body region and external gate bias voltage.

This study was performed to evaluate the possibility of inducing analgesia by electroacupuncture stimulation at single acupoint or combined acupoints and to examine the analgesic effects following the combination of premedication and electroacupunrture analgesia(EA). Analgesia was induced by EA with the current of 1-4 volts and the frequency of 10-45 Hz to the acupoints Uown to be related to analgesia on the head/necIL axial part thoracic and pelvic limb. In Yi Feng acupoint of head/neck part pain responses were not disappeared after electroacupunrture stimulation to the head/necIL thoracic limbo thoraxl abdomen, loin, rear and pelvic limb. Pain responses were remained after EA of Tian Men-Tian Ping and Shen Yu arupoints of axial park whereas hypoalgesia was observed after EA of Tian Ping-Bai Hui acupoint in all parts of body. There was no analgesic effects after EA stimulation of the brachial plexus and Wai Kuan acupoint, whereas after EA stimulation of San Yang Lo, pain responses were disappeared in headfnecll, thoracic limb and pelvic limbo and in the other parts of body hypoalgesia was shown. In EA stimulation of Tsu San Li acupoint pain responses were disappeared in pelvic limb and in San Yin Chiao acupoint pain responses were disappeared in head/necIL thoracic and pelvic limb, and hypoalgesia was shown in abdomen. On the combination of San Yang Lo Pli Men) and San Yin Chiao (Pu Yan6 acupoints, pain response in heauneck was decreased in 5 minutes, whereas analgesia in thoracic and pelvic limb was induced after 20-30 minutes and in abdomen was noted after 50 minutes. The more frequrncy was increased, the more rapid analgesic e11%t was induced. The analgesic effects wert not good in laparotomy under EA at the combination of San Yang Lo (Xi Men) and San Yin Chiao (Pu Yang) arufoints. Enteroanastomosis could not be continued under acrpromazine, xylazine and diazepam with EA. However, under EA followed by tiletaminetzolazepam, the operation could be completed without additional anesthesia and the analgesic effects were good. There were no changes in clinical signs, hematological and serological values after combination of the premeditation of tiletamine+zolaEepam and EA. It is considered that EA alone is not suitable for the main surgery, but the combination method of EA and sedatives can be utilized in practice.

This study examines the effects of fashion influencers' body types (realistic versus ideal body types) on self-expression, self-representation, and recommendation intentions, as mediated by familiarity toward influencers. Although fashion influencers lead to a positive consumer response compared to traditional advertisements, previous research on the effects of fashion influencers on consumers is limited. Thus, this study tests the role of consumers' socio-psychological aspects in understanding how and why fashion influencers affect consumers' behavioral intentions associated with self-expression, self-representation, and influencer recommendation. A total of 180 women in their 20s and 30s participated in the survey. The responses were collected after showing them stimuli featuring fashion influencers with either ideal or realistic body shapes. The data were analyzed using SPSS18.0 for descriptive statistics, and AMOS 18.0 for confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling. The results showed that participants who were shown realistic body types perceived familiarity, which generated positive effects on self-expression, self-representation, and recommendation intentions. Hence, the effects of influencers' body types on recommendation intention are mediated by familiarity. Self-expression and self-representation intentions also increase influencer recommendation intention. Comparatively, participants who were shown ideal body types only induced higher self-representation intention, which increased their recommendation intention. The current findings can help fashion marketers select the appropriate influencers who fit their target customers as promotional models, as well as to induce changes in consumers' behavioral intention.

통곡물 시리얼(Whole grain cereal, WGC)이 함유된 식이는 에너지 대사 조절에 중요한 다량영양소(macronutrients)를 제공한다. 본 연구는 고지방식이(high-fat diet, HFD)로 유발된 비만 마우스를 이용하여 WGC의 근감소성 비만 예방 효과에 대해 평가하였다. C57BL/6N 마우스에 정상식이(normal diet, ND), ND+WGC, HFD, HFD+WGC를 12주 동안 제공하였다. WGC는 체중, 식이효율, 체지방 및 지방세포의 크기를 감소시켰다. 또한, WGC는 간 무게 및 간에 축적된 지방을 감소시킴으로써 HFD에 의한 비알코올성 지방간을 개선시켰다. 더욱이, WGC는 비만 마우스 및 정상 마우스의 근육 무게 및 근력을 증가시켰다. 따라서, WGC는 지방 축적을 억제하고 근육량을 증가시키므로 근감소성 비만 예방을 위한 기능성 식품으로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Brain-type natriuretic peptide (BNP)은 뇌나트륨이뇨펩티드로, 좌심실의 심근세포에서 분비되는 호르몬으로, 심장과 신장에 작용하여 혈관 확장과 나트륨 이뇨 작용 등을 하는 것으로 알려져 있으나, 최근에는 다양한 조직에서 대사 작용을 조절하는 것으로 보고된다. 본 연구에서는 간 조직에서 BNP의 영향을 알기 위해 BNP가 고지방식이에 의해 유도되는 인슐린 저항성을 개선하는지를 조사하였다. BNP을 주입한 쥐와 control로서 saline을 주입한 쥐들 간에는 몸무게, 체지방양(fat mass), 제지방량(lean body mass)의 변화는 없었다. 고인슐린혈증 정상혈당 글루코스 클램프(Hyperinsulinemic Euglycemic Glucose Clam) 동안, BNP를 주입한 고지방 식이 쥐들은 saline을 주입한 고지방식이 쥐에 비해 혈당(blood glucose)은 감소하였으며, 포도당 주입 속도(glucose infusion rate)는 증가하였다. 또한 BNP은 포도당 신생 및 중성지방 합성 관련 유전자들의 발현을 감소시켜, 간에서 포도당 생성과 중성지방의 양을 감소시켰다. BNP는 saline을 주입한 쥐에 비해 간 조직에서 Akt와 AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)의 인산화를 증가시켰는데, 이는 BNP을 처리한 AML12 간세포에서도 BNP는Akt와 AMPK 인산화를 증가시켰다. 이상의 결과는 BNP가 간에서 인슐린 저항성을 개선하여 포도당 생성과 중성 지방 생성을 억제함을 알 수 있었다.

본 논문은 직류 전기철도 급전시스템에서 레일전위와 누설전류의 분석 기법을 제시하였다. 일반적으로 직류 전기철도 급전시스템에서는 운행용 레일을 귀로 전류(부극성)의 도체로 사용하고 있으므로 레일전위가 발생하고, 특히 차량 운행용 레일과 대지사이의 저항이 작은 경우에는 대지로 흐르는 누설전류가 문제가 된다. 이 레일전위 및 누설전류는 레일 주변에 설치된 지하 매설물에 영향을 미치며, 인체의 안전과도 관련이 있다. 이에 따라 직류 전기철도 급전시스템에서 레일전위와 누설전류를 억제하는 것은 전기철도 주변 환경 및 안전 측면에서 중요한 문제이다. 이상과 같은 관점에서, 직류 전기철도 급전시스템에 대하여 단독급전 및 병렬급전 상황에서 레일전위와 누설전류를 계산할 수 있는 알고리즘을 제안하였으며, 또한 열차주행시뮬레이션(TPS)과 연동하여 열차주행에 따라 부하전류가 변동되는 상황에서 레일전위와 누설전류를 정량적으로 분석할 수 있도록 하였다. 제안한 알고리즘을 이용하여 시뮬레이션 프로그램을 개발하였고, 직류전기철도 급전시스템에 대하여 사례 연구를 수행하였다.

A numerical analysis study has performed in terms of fluid dynamics to identify the wall thinning generated in the main feedwater isolation valve body of a nuclear power plant. To review the relations between flow characteristics and the wall thinning induced by flow accelerated corrosion (FAC), numerical analysis using FLUENT code and ultrasonic tests (UT) were performed. The local velocities according to the analysis results were compared with the distribution of the measured wall thickness by ultrasonic tests. The comparison results show that the local velocity in the x-direction had no correlation with the wall thinning but the local velocity in the y-direction and turbulence intensity had a great influence on that. These results provide a good match to those of the previous studies - locations colliding vertically against components undergo severe wall thinning. These results may be utilized to the design modification and the wall thinning management for main feedwater isolation valves for preventing the wall thinning degradation.

To study the effect of caffeine intake levels on iron metabolism, the iron utilization, iron contents of serum, liver, spleen, kidney, hemoglobin and hematocrit were compared in rats of different sex fed various levels of caffeine (3.5 and 7.0mg/100g body weight) for three weeks. There were no significant caffeine induced differences in feed intake, body weight gain but feed intake of male rats were significantly lower than that of female rats. Hemoglobin, hematocrit and iron contents of the serum were not significantly different between caffeine free and caffeine groups or male and female rats. Iron contents of kidney were decreased by elevation of injected caffeine levels rather than those of liver and spleen. caffeine male groups showed more increased uine volume, urinary and fecal excretions of iron than caffeine free or caffeine female groups. Apparent digestibility and retention of iron were significantly decreased by increment of injected caffeine levels. Male rate rats were more susceptible to injected caffeine on iron excretion than female rats. Current findings suggest that excessive caffeine consumption can affect iron excretion via urine and feces thereby decrease the utilization of iron, and have more significant effect on male than female rats.

Bojungbangdocktang (BJBDT), a formula of eight Oriental herbs, is a modified herbal prescription of Bangdoktang and Bojungbangamtang. Recently, BJBDT was demonstrated to inhibit angiogenesis induced by vascular endothelial growth factor in human umbilical vein endothelial cells, enhance hematopoiesis and protect cisplatin-induced cytotoxicity in normal MCF-10A breast cells. Nevertheless, there is no safety study of BJBDT before clinical trial so far. Thus, in the current study, we investigated the toxicity about ethanol-extracted BJBDT. Male and female Spraque Dawley (SD) rats were given orally by BJBDT at 250, 500, and 1000 mg/kg for 4 weeks. Mortality, clinical signs and measured change of body weight, food consumption and water consumption were observed. In addition, we performed ophthalmologic, urinary, hematological, blood serum biochemical and histopathological examination. Any general toxicity was not found in BJBDT treated group. Also, there were no significant differences in the parameters such as body weight, food consumption and water consumption, a lot of urine and blood factor levels except HCT, MCHC, Ca, TG, Glucose and T-Bilirubin level compared with control group. Although HCT was elevated and TG was decreased in male rats, and MCHC, Glucose and T-Bilirubin were elevated and Ca and HCT were decreased in female rats, these were within normal ranges. Finally, we determined that maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was 1000 mg/kg and no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) was 500 mg/kg. Taken together, these results demonstrated that BJBDT is very safe to SD rats.
