Background: Nursing home resident care is an ongoing topic of public discussion, and there is great interest in improving the quality of resident care. This study investigated the association between nursing home employees' job satisfaction and residents' satisfaction with care and medical outcomes. Methods: Employee and resident satisfaction were measured by questionnaire in 175 skilled nursing facilities in the eastern United States from 2005 to 2009. Facility-level data on residents' pressure ulcers, medically unexplained weight loss, and falls were obtained from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Long-Term Care Minimum Data Set. The association between employee satisfaction and resident satisfaction was examined with multiple and multilevel linear regression. Associations between employee satisfaction and the rates of pressure ulcers, weight loss, and falls were examined with simple and multilevel Poisson regression. Results: A 1-point increase in overall employee satisfaction was associated with an increase of 17.4 points (scale 0-100) in the satisfaction of residents and family members (p < 0.0001) and a 19% decrease in the incidence of resident falls, weight loss, and pressure ulcers combined (p < 0.0001), after adjusting for staffing ratio and percentage of resident-days paid by Medicaid. Conclusion: Job satisfaction of nursing home employees is associated with lower rates of resident injuries and higher resident satisfaction with care. A supportive work environment may help increase quality of care in the nation's nursing homes.

본 연구의 목적은 수학적 연결성이 강조된 과제개발 활동을 통해 개발된 과제를 분석하여 교사의 역량 강화를 위한 교사교육에 시사점을 제공하는 것이다. 이를 위해 예비교사 52명을 대상으로 연결성이 강조된 과제 개발 활동을 적용하고 이를 통해 개발된 과제를 분석하였다. 분석결과, 예비교사들이 개발한 과제는 타 교과, 수학사, 현상, 공학, 실생활과의 외적 연결이 있었다. 또한 다른 표현, 부분-전체의 관련성, 암시, 절차, 설명-지향적 연결의 다양한 내적 연결 사례가 있었다. '논리'와 '표현'의 관점에서 예비교사들의 CCK와 SCK는 긍정적이었으며, '전략'으로서 KCT는 다양성에서 아쉬웠지만 의미가 있었다. 다만 '수준'의 측면에서 KCS는 학생의 수준에 부합하지 못한 과제가 있었다는 점에서 제한적임을 알 수 있었다. '논리', '표현', '전략'의 유연함과 다르게 '수준'에서 어려움을 나타냈다는 점을 고려해 볼 때, 교사교육에서 '학생에 대한 이해'가 더욱 강조될 필요가 있다.

In this study, Le Corbusier's ideas were investigated from the view point of modern dualism. Le Corbusier, pioneer of modern architecture, insisted a rationalistic architecture for the industrial period, considering a house as 'machine for living'. In the other way, he tried to arouse emotions through architecture, mentioning a house as 'machine for affecting'. In his writings and paintings, he divided the world in the two opposed things (ex: human and nature, reason and sensation, chaos and order, orthogonal and libre curve, man and woman, sun and moon, lightness and darkness, bull and woman, and etc), and tried to combined the these two divided things. In architecture, he amalgamated his white buildings with the green vegetation, which is styled in the harmony of contrast(nature and articial). In urbanism, Le Corbusier did not divide nature only into three material elements for living(sunlight, air, green space), but also pursued poetic and aesthetic nature through buildings under the rays of sun and among the vegetation. Le Corbusier's dualistic ideas are based on Descartes's modern dualism, which divided the world into the material and the spiritual and into the objective and the subjective. Due to this original division, modern dualism contains the limits of extreme subjectification on human signification and of separation from the world and nature. Le Corbusier pursued the combination of the two divided things to overcome the contradiction of dualism, but his ideas and works contain the limits of the modern dualism.

Optical microscopy is a useful tool for study in the biological sciences. With an optical microscope, we can observe the micro world of life such as tissues, cells, and proteins. A fluorescent dye or a fluorescent protein provides an opportunity to mark a specific target in the crowd of biological samples, so that an image of a specific target can be observed by an optical microscope. The optical microscope, however, is constrained in resolution due to diffraction limit. Super-resolution microscopy made a breakthrough with this diffraction limit. Using a super-resolution microscope, many biomolecules are observed beyond the diffraction limit in cells. In the case of volumetric imaging, the super-resolution techniques are only applied to a limited area due to long imaging time, multiple scattering of photons, and sample-induced aberration in deep tissue. In this article, we review recent advances in super-resolution microscopy for volumetric imaging. The super-resolution techniques have been integrated with various modalities, such as a line-scan confocal microscope, a spinning disk confocal microscope, a light sheet microscope, and point spread function engineering. Super-resolution microscopy combined with adaptive optics by compensating for wave distortions is a promising method for deep tissue imaging and biomedical applications.

연관 암호 공격은 키의 길이에 따라 가변 라운드 수를 갖는 블록 암호알고리즘의 키 스케줄의 약점을 이용한 공격으로 2002년 Hongjun Wu에 의해 소개되었다. 이 공격은 두 개의 서로 다른 키 길이에 대해 각기 다른 라운드 수를 갖는 두 암호에서 사용되는 키 쌍이 유사-동치키일 경우에 적용되는 공격이다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 연관 암호 공격을 블록 암호알고리즘의 가장 강력한 공격 방법인 차분 공격과 결합한 차분 연관 암호 공격의 개념을 제시한다. 차분 연관 암호 공격은 기존의 연관 암호 공격에서 라운드 수의 차이가 커짐에 따라 공격 적용의 어려움을 극복한 방법이다. 이 공격법을 이용하여 블록 암호알고리즘 ARIA v.0.9와 SC2000을 분석한다. 또한, 차분 공격 뿐 아니라 선형 공격. 고계 차분 공격 등과 같은 기존의 블록 암호알고리즘 공격들과 연관 암호 공격이 결합 가능함을 이용하여, 가변 라운드 수존 갖는 블록 암호알고리즘인 SAFER++와 CAST-128을 분석한다.

문자와 숫자의 조합으로 이루어진 패스워드는 외우기 쉽고 사용하기 쉽지만 낮은 복잡도를 가지고 있다. 그렇기 때문에 안전하지 않은 환경에서 키보드와 같은 입력 장치를 통하여 패스워드를 그대로 입력하는 행위는 훔쳐보기와 같은 공격으로 쉽게 노출될 수 있다. 이러한 문제를 극복하고자 사용자 비밀의 형태를 다른 것으로 바꾸거나 복잡한 입력과정을 통하여 인증을 수행하는 방법들이 제안되고 있으나, 보안성과 사용자 편의성에 있어서 적합한 타협점을 찾지 못하고 있다. S3PAS는 사용자의 편의성을 만족시키면서 훔쳐보기로부터 사용자의 패스워드를 보호할 수 있는 보안성도 갖추었다고 알려진 인증기법이다. 그러나 공격자가 인증 세션을 여러 번 바라본 이후에 얻어낸 정보를 이용하여 인증을 시도하는 교차 공격에 대해서는 고려하지 않았다. 이 논문에서는 S3PAS에 대하여, 인증세션이 여러 번 공격자에게 노출되었을 때 발생할 수 있는 보안문제에 대해서 살펴보고, 사용자 실험과 모의실험을 통하여 이를 확인한다. 또한, 이러한 문제를 극복하기 위한 대안에 대하여 고찰한다.

PURPOSE. The purpose of this study was to investigate the misfit and screw preload at the implant abutment connection of implant supported fixed dental prosthesis with cantilever (ICFDP) manufactured using different digital manufacturing techniques and to compare the screw preload before and after cyclic loading. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Mandibular jaw model with four intra-foraminal implants was scanned using digital scanner. Stereolithography file was used to design a framework with nonengaging (NE) abutments and 10 mm cantilever distal to one terminal implant. Five frameworks were constructed using combined digital-conventional techniques (CAD-cast), and five frameworks were constructed using three-dimensional printing (3DP). Additional CAD-cast framework was constructed in a way that ensures passive fit (PF) to use as control. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) measured the implant abutment connection misfit. Sixty screws were used on the corresponding frameworks. Screws were torqued and pre-cyclic loading reverse torque value (RTV) was recorded. Frameworks were subjected to 200,000 loading cycles with a loading point 9 mm from the center of terminal implants adjacent to the cantilever and post-cyclic loading RTVs were recorded. RESULTS. Microscopic readings showed significant differences between frameworks. PF demonstrated the lowest measurements of 16.04 (2.6) ㎛ while CAD-cast demonstrated the highest measurements of 29.2 (3.1) ㎛. In all groups, RTVs were significantly lower than the applied torque. Post-cyclic loading RTV was significantly lower than pre-cyclic loading RTV in PF and 3DP frameworks. Differences in RTVs between the three manufacturing techniques were insignificant. CONCLUSION. Although CAD-cast and three-dimensionally printed (3DP) both produce frameworks with clinically acceptable misfit, 3DP might not be the technique of choice for maintaining screw's preload stability under an aggressive loading situation.

The application of minimal invasive mastectomy has allowed surgeons to perform nipples-paring mastectomy via a shorter, inconspicuous incision under clear vision and with more precise hemostasis. However, it poses new challenges in microsurgical breast reconstruction, such as vascular anastomosis and flap insetting, which are considerably more difficult to perform through the shorter incision on the lateral breast border. We propose an innovative technique of transcutaneous medial fixation sutures to help in flap insetting and creating and maintaining the medial breast border. The sutures are placed after mastectomy and before flap transfer. Three 4-0 nylon suture loops are placed transcutaneously and into the pocket at the markings of the preferred lower medial border of the reconstructed breast. After microvascular anastomosis and temporary shaping of the flap on top of the mastectomy skin, the three corresponding points for the sutures are identified. The three nylon loops are then sutured to the dermis of the corresponding medial point of the flap. The flap is placed into the pocket by a simultaneous gentle pull on the three sutures and a combined lateral push. The stitches are then tied and buried after completion of flap inset.

This paper presents the Campbell diagram analysis of the rotordynamic system using the full order model (FOM) and the reduced order model (ROM) techniques to determine the critical speeds, identify the stability and reduce the computational time. Due to the spin-speed-dependent matrices (e.g., centrifugal stiffening matrix), several model order reduction (MOR) techniques may be considered, such as the modal superposition (MS) method and the Krylov subspace-based MOR techniques (e.g., Ritz vector (RV), quasi-static Ritz vector (QSRV), multifrequency quasi-static Ritz vector (MQSRV), multifrequency/ multi-spin-speed quasi-static Ritz vector (MMQSRV) and the combined Ritz vector & modal superposition (RV+MS) methods). The proposed MMQSRV method in this study is extended from the MQSRV method by incorporating the rotational-speed-dependent stiffness matrices into the Krylov subspace during the MOR process. Thus, the objective of this note is to respond to the question of whether to use the MS method or the Krylov subspace-based MOR technique in establishing the Campbell diagram of the shaft-disc-blade assembly systems in three-dimensional (3D) finite element analysis (FEA). The Campbell diagrams produced by the FOM and various MOR methods are presented and discussed thoroughly by computing the norm of relative errors (ER). It is found that the RV and the MS methods are dominant at low and high rotating speeds, respectively. More precisely, as the spinning velocity becomes large, the calculated ER produced by the RV method is significantly increased; in contrast, the ER produced by the MS method is smaller and more consistent. From a computational point of view, the MORs have substantially reduced the time computing considerably compared to the FOM. Additionally, the verification of the 3D FE rotordynamic model is also provided and found to be in close agreement with the existing solutions.
