As the data transfer rate between chips gets higher, both crosstalk and SSN (Simultaneous Switching Noise) deteriorate seriously the performance of a system. The proposed interface scheme uses P-CTR and N-CTR(Positive/Negative Constant Transition Rate) which encodes data at both falling and rising edges, where the transition directions of N-CTR and P-CTR are opposite. And the proposed bus system places two P-CTR drivers and two N-CTR drivers alternatively. In the proposed P/N-CTR interface scheme, the signals of neighboring interconnection lines at both sides of a bus will not switch simultaneously in the same direction, which leads to reduction in the maximum crosstalk and SSN compared to conventional interfaces. For verification of noise reduction of the proposed interface scheme, the scheme is applied to several kinds of bit-wide buses with various interconnection structures, and HSPICE simulation was performed with 0.35 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ SPICE parameters. The simulation results show that in the 32-bit or less wide bus, the maximum SSN and crosstalk are reduced to at least 26.78% and 50%, respectively in comparison with the conventional interface scheme.

Purpose: Patients who underwent a coronary artery bypass graft surgery(CABG) experienced the unpleasant emotions and discomfort when their chest tube was removed. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of cold therapy on pain related to chest tube removal(CTR) in CABG patients. Methods: Fifty adult patients undergoing CABG were recruited in a prospective, double blinded study. Subjects were divided into the experimental group and the control group considering their sex and age. The pretest data were obtained 20 minutes before CTR. Patients in the experimental group, received cold therapy for 10 minutes before CTR. Pain sense and intensity were determined immediately after CTR and at 10 minutes after CTR. Results: The total score of pain sense immediately after CTR of the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group(t=-3.703, p=.003). And scores of pain intensity immediately after CTR in the experimental group were significantly lower than that of the control group(t=-3.073, p=.001). But, there was no significant difference in the score of pain intensity 10 minutes after CTR between the experimental and the control group(t=1.759, p=.085). Conclusion: The cold therapy would be recommended as an effective and nonpharmacologic nursing intervention for relieving pain in patients undergoing CTR.

Purpose of this study is present the normal range of cardiac size and cardiothoracic ratio according to patient position(chest PA and AP) and age of Korean adult male on digital chest X - ray, And to propose a mutually compatible conversion rate. 1,024 males were eligible for this study, among 1,300 normal chest patients who underwent chest PA and low-dose CT examinations on the same day at the 'S' Hospital Health Examination Center in Seoul From January to December 2014. CS and CTR were measured by Danzer (1919). The mean difference between CS and CTR was statistically significant (p<0.01) in Chest PA (CS 135.48 mm, CTR 43.99%) and Chest AP image (CS 155.96 mm, CTR 51.75%). There was no statistically significant difference between left and right heart in chest PA and AP images (p>0.05). CS showed statistically significant difference between Chest PA (p>0. 05) and Chest AP (p<0.05). The thorax size and CTR were statistically significant (p<0.01) in both age and chest PA and AP. Result of this study, On Chest AP image CS was magnified 15%, CTR was magnified 17% compare with Chest PA image. CS and CTR were about 10% difference by changing posture at all ages.

칩과 칩 사이의 전송 속도가 증가함에 따라, 누화 및 스위칭 잡음에 의한 시스템의 성능 저하가 심각해지고 있다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 인터페이스는 한 심벌 펄스의 상승/하강 에지 위치에 데이터를 엔코딩하고, 천이 방향이 반대인 P-CTR과 N-CTR (positive/Negative Constant Transition Rate)을 사용하며, P-CTR 드라이버 2개 묶음과 N-CTR 드라이버 2개 묶음을 교대로 배치하여 버스를 구성한다. 제안하는 P/N-CTR 코드 인터페이스에서는 임의의 한 배선에 대해서 양옆의 이웃한 배선 신호가 동시에 같은 방향으로 스위칭하는 경우가 발생하지 않기 때문에 최대 누화 잡음과 최대 스위칭 잡음을 기존의 I/O 인테페이스 보다 감소시킬 수 있다. 제안하는 인터페이스 방식의 잡음 감소 특성을 검증하기 위하여 다양한 배선 구조와 여러 비트 폭의 버스 구조에 적용하고, 0.35㎛ SPICE 파라미터를 이용한 HSPICE 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 제안한 인터페이스는 기존의 인터페이스와 비교하여 32 비트 미만의 버스에서는 최대 누화 잡음이 최소26.78 % 감소하고, 누화는 50 % 감소한다.

Background: Platinum-based regimens are effective treatments for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but the five-year survival rate is still less than 20%. One possible factor appears to be resistance involving polymorphisms in the CTR1 gene which plays an importance role in accumulation of platinum in the cytoplasm. Purpose: To establish both prevalence of CTR1 polymorphism and its impact on treatment related toxicity in Thai advanced NSCLC patients. Materials and Methods: Thirty-two advanced NSCLC participants received carboplatin and gemcitabine during January to June 2016 at King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital (KCMH) were recruited for analysis of the CTR1 rs12686377 genotype. These participants were planning to be treated with platinum-based chemotherapy for at least two cycles. Results: Allele frequency of CTR1 polymorphism $G{\rightarrow}T$ was found to be 25%. The results showed that genetic polymorphism at CTR1 rs12686377 was associated with emesis side effects (P = 0.020) and neuropathic symptoms (P = 0.010). In addition, hematologic side effects in terms of anemia also tended to be related to this polymorphism. Conclusions: This is the first study suggesting that polymorphism at CTR1 rs12686377 may be associated with toxicity from platinum-based regimens. Therefore, it could be a factor to aid in treatment decision-making.

LEA is a lightweight block cipher developed in Korea in 2013. In this paper, among block cipher operation methods, CTR operation mode and GCM operation mode that provides confidentiality and integrity are implemented. In the LEA-CTR operation mode, we propose an optimization implementation that omits the operation between states through the state fixation and omits the operation through the pre-operation by utilizing the characteristics of the fixed nonce value of the CTR operation mode. It also shows that the proposed method is applicable to the GCM operation mode, and implements the GCM through the implementation of the GHASH function using the Galois Field(2¹²⁸) multiplication operation. As a result, in the case of LEA-CTR to which the proposed technique is applied on 32-bit RISC-V, it was confirmed that the performance was improved by 2% compared to the previous study. In addition, the performance of the GCM operation mode is presented so that it can be used as a performance indicator in other studies in the future.

Bone mineral density (BMD) is influenced by genetic and environmental factors. Among genetic study; calcitonin receptor (CTR) gene is a good candidate influencing the inter-individual difference in BMD because CTR is involved in calcium and bone metabolism. Thus, we investigated the distribution of C1377T polymorphism in the CTR gene among male Korean elite athletic and control groups, respectively and also an association with BMD in lumbar spine and femoral neck. Our results suggested that this polymorphism of CTR gene was not significantly associated with lumbar spine or femoral neck BMDs in the both groups, respectively. However, we found that there was the racial difference in genotype distribution of this polymorphism between Caucasian and Asian populations. Though we could not detect the significant association between C1377T polymorphism of CTR gene and lumbar spine or femoral neck BMDs, further studies using other ethnic groups are necessary to clarify the precise role in BMD of CTR gene.

Click-through rate (CTR) prediction is an estimate of the probability that a user will click on a given item and plays an important role in determining strategies for maximizing online ad revenue. Recently, research has been performed to utilize CNN for CTR prediction. Since the CTR data does not have a meaningful order in terms of correlation, the CTR data may be arranged in any order. However, because CNN only learns local information limited by filter size, data arrays can have a significant impact on performance. In this paper, we propose a multi-array CNN model that generates a data array set that can extract all local feature information that CNN can collect, and learns features through individual CNN modules. Experimental results for large data sets show that the proposed model achieves a 22.6% synergy with RI in AUC compared to the existing CNN, and the proposed array generation method achieves 3.87% performance improvement over the random generation method.
