Angelica sinensis radix, Danggui, is a traditional oriental medication, which has been used to modulate immune response. We report here that aqueous extract of Angelica sinensis radix (ASR) can induces NO production, and inhibit LPS-induced NO production in dose-dependent manner in RAW 264.7 macrophage cells. ASR also induces iNOS mRNA and iNOS protein expression, and exhibit inhibitory effect on iNOS mRNA and protein expression in a dose-dependent manner in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophage cells. Cytokines involved in the regulation of inflammatory reaction and immune response may play a role in the pathogenesis. ASR induces. pro-inflammatory cytokine gene expression (IL-1α, IL-1β and IL-6 gene) in a dose-dependent manner, and inhibits the expressions of these cytokines in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophage cells. These data indicate that (1) ASR may be a potential therapeutic modulator of NO synthesis in various pathological conditions, and (2) the immunomodulatory effects of ASR may be, in part, associated with the inducing or suppression of pro-inflammatory cytokine gene expressions.

In this paper, we consider a renewal process in which both the inter-arrival times and rewards are fuzzy random variables. We prove the uniform levelwise convergence of fuzzy renewal and fuzzy renewal rewards. These results improve the result of Popova and Wu[European J. Oper. Research 117(1999), 606-617] and the main result of Hwang [Fuzzy Sets and Systems 116 (2000), 237-244].

본 연구는 대구경북지역 섬유산업의 경쟁력 회복을 위해 1999년부터 소위 '밀라노프로젝트'로 시작된 대구지역 섬유산업진흥사업을 중심으로 지난 10년간의 대구지역 섬유산업의 정책변화와 지역 섬유산업의 구조변화에 대한 현황분석을 토대로 향후 대구경북지역 섬유산업의 혁신과제를 제안하고자 하였다. 분석결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1단계 밀라노프로젝트('99-'03)는 기획 수립단계에서부터 섬유산업의 중장기 발전시나리오에 기초한 비전과 전략의 부재로 체계적인 사업기획 및 단위사업 선정이 미흡함으로써 패션어패럴밸리 조성 등 사업의 추진일정이 지연된 문제점이 노출되었지만, 신제품개발지원센터, 염색디자인실용화센터 등 차별화 제품의 개발을 지원할 수 있는 기반을 구축하게 되었다는 점에서 성과의 의의가 있다. 2단계 대구섬유산업진흥사업('04-'08)은 경상북도의 도비 매칭을 통하여 대구경북지역의 광역사업으로 추진되었으며, 기 구축된 인프라를 중심으로 지원된 기술개발지원 사업은 특허출원 등 기술적 성과와 신상품 매출액 비중 증가 등의 경제적 성과가 가시화되고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 아울러 섬유업계는 1990년대 후반부터 한계업체 퇴출, 설비매각 이전 등 고강도의 구조조정이 진행되어 왔으나, 현재 영업중인 섬유업체는 재무구조, 생산성, 수익성 측면에서는 기업의 경영성과가 호전되었다. 산업 구조적인 측면에서는 의류용섬유소재분야에서 산업용섬유소재분야로 구조전환이 이루어지고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 기업의 혁신역량 분석에서는 타 산업과 비교할 때 큰 차이는 없으나, 최고경영자의 기술혁신의지, 기업가 정신, 연구개발 역량과 인적자원분야에서 혁신역량이 다소 떨어지는 것으로 나타났다. 향후 섬유산업의 지속발전을 위한 경쟁력 제고를 위해서는 하이테크 섬유소재와 생활용 섬유분야에 대한 선택과 집중이 필요하며, 향후 물리적 집적기반보다는 신뢰와 협력에 기반한 네트워크를 통해 '혁신 시너지'를 창출할 수 있도록 소프트웨어적 인프라 구축에 보다 집중하여야 할 것이다. 특히 지역 섬유산업이 지역 전략산업으로 선정되어 10년 이상 지속적인 지원을 받아 온 만큼, 이제 전통 주력산업에서 미래 성장산업으로 변모하기 위해서는 기업의 기술혁신의지와 기업가정신에 기초한 기업주도의 '혁신 클러스터'를 반드시 창출해야 할 것이다.

In this paper, we give some sufficient conditions for convergence of geometric mean for T-related fuzzy numbers where T is an Archimedean t-norm under some mild restrictions. These results generalize earlier results of Hong and Lee [Fuzzy Sets and Systems 116 (2000) 263-267].

This study was undertaken to compare the obesity related dietary factors among rural middle school students living in the Daegu.Kyungbuk area. Anthropometric data showed that mean height and weight were 162.7$\pm$8.6cm and 53.9$\pm$9.8kg in 220 male students and 158.4$\pm$6.2cm and 51.0$\pm$7.6kg in 210 female student. Mean BMIs for boys and girls were 19.00$\pm$2.35 and 19.30$\pm$2.45, respectively. 71.36% of male students and 71.9% of female students were underweight by the BMI index. Students who skipped the breakfast were up to 66.8%. The reasons for skipping a meal for both sexes were significantly different. Compared to males, more female respondents felt guilty and depressed related to eating. Furthermore, females were more significantly concerned about body image, diet and body weight (p<0.001), and they were not satisfied with their weight. The sources of information on obesity and diet were radio and TV in males, while females gathered information from magazines and friends. The ideal body weight of male students was heavier than the actual body weight while female students desired a thinner body shape. In conclusion, a different approach for nutrition education based on sex should be developed, and implemented fur adolescents.

Although copper and zinc are essential metals for human health, excessive level of these metals is toxic. Besides, aluminum is known to induce various adverse health effects including neurological disorders. Therefore, monitoring the human body burden of these metals is important in preventing adverse health effects. In this study, we assessed the exposure to copper, zinc, and aluminum among an adult population residing in Daegu and Kyungbuk areas. Based on data from 171 participants, we found that the geometric mean copper, zinc, and aluminum concentrations in hair were $15.1\;{\mu}g/g$ [95% confidence interval (CI): 13.1~17.5], 76.9 (95% CI: 70.4~84.1), and $1.11\;{\mu}g/g$ (95% CI: 0.81~1.51), respectively. The copper concentrations in hair were significantly related to age, education, and residence area. In addition, zinc concentrations in hair were significantly related to age, whereas higher hair aluminum concentrations were related to alcohol drinking. Correlations between copper and zinc in hair had a significant positive correlation. Our findings suggest that the body burden of copper, zinc, and aluminum varies according to demographic factors, and hair could be used as a valuable biological medium for metal exposure.

The purposes of this study were to investigate the degree of market orientation of textile firms and to explore the effect of market orientation on business performance and job satisfaction. The data were collected from 167 subjects who work at textile firms located in the Daegu and Kyungbuk province through survey. The collected data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-tests, correlation, regression, and structural equation modeling using AMOS 6.0. Market orientation has a significant and positive impact on the business performance as well as job satisfaction of employees in textile firms. In other words, the greater the market intelligence creation, the market intelligence dissemination and responsiveness of the organization, the greater the business performance. The greater these three factors of textile firms, the greater job satisfaction of employees. In addition, the relationships between company characteristics and market orientation were investigated.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of eating habits and food preferences on the adoptive behavior of children with intellectual disabilities. Survey questionnaires were distributed to six special education schools located in the Daegu-Kyungbuk area, and data were collected from 552 families and teachers with intellectually disabled students. Identification of eating habits began with a factor analysis, and the results were a five-factor solution. Among the five patterns, factors 1 and 2 were significantly related with behavior problems of intellectually disabled children. Further, food preferences of the children were significantly related with adoptive behavior problems. The findings of this study clearly indicate that eating habits as well as food preferences are important factors in identifying adoptive behavior problems in intellectually disabled children. Based on the findings of this study, similarities and differences in eating habits are discussed, and implications for children are provided.

The main purpose of this research was to investigate the uses of Kwamaegi not only in Kyungbuk area also in Daegu metropolitan city to predict f3r the consuming nationwide. This study was performed to analyze the preference, recognition, frequency of intake by survey research. The results were summarized as follows: Most of subjects(96.6%) knew what Kwamaegi was. The male subjects (97.9%) blew more about Kwamaegi than the females (95.0%) did(p<.05). The reasons why peoples did not eat kwamaegi were 'did not want'(40.6%),'had no chance'(33.7%),'did not know'(24.1%) in order. Males liked Kwamaegi more than females did(p<.01). The reasons why they liked Kwamaegi were because males(42.6%) liked its suitability fur side dish when drinking(33.9%) and female(30.4%) liked its plain taste(p<.001). Among respondents, 48.7% ate 3 to 10 of Kwamaegies at one time. Most subjects recognized Kwamaegi as a healthy food(M=3.22). Males(M=3.40) pointed out to be improved in the advertisement while females(M=3.15) to decrease in fishy smell of Kwamaegi.

세계화에 따른 경쟁의 심화는 국가의 개입여지는 축소됨과 동시에 지방이 경쟁단위로 노출됨에 따라 지역의 역할이 증대된다. 이러한 변화에 따라 지역산업정책의 여건을 분석하고 지역의 수요에 부응하기 위해 노력하는 것은 지역 선도 R&D 연구센터로 발전하고자 하는 대경권연구센터에 있어서 매우 의미있는 작업이 될 것이라 여겨진다. 따라서 최근 지역산업정책에 큰 변화를 가져온 두 가지 흐름인 5+2 광역경제권 선도산업과 첨단의료복합단지 조성사업과 더불어 기존 지역산업정책인 전략산업의 현황을 분석하고 대경권연구센터와 에트리 본원의 역할방향 및 시사하는 바를 논의하고자 한다.
