  • This paper is a report on the real aspects of Darigut that was performed in Pyungyang in 1955. The data on 1955 Darigut that is kept in a publishing company through a complicated process contains sound source, records of shamanic songs, and various photo data so it is highly valuable. The Darigut that was eventually known to the world through the performance in Seoul in 1981 is meaningful in itself, but it will have a more solid identity through the comparison with the data on the Darigut of 1955. This paper presented the form in which the data on Pyungyang Darigut remains and deduced the original form of Darigut through the comparison with Seoul Darigut. It is expected that this data will be widely publicized and contribute to the study on Korea's shamanism.

  • Background: As most of people in Korea are covered by National Health Insurance (NHI), the disease information collected in NHI provides high availability for health policy. Nevertheless, the validity of disease codes in NHI data has been controversial till now. So we tried to evaluate the validity of them by comparing the NHI claims data with Korean National Hospital Discharge In-depth Injury Survey (KNHDIIS) data. Methods: We compared the NHI patients sample data (2009) with the KNHDIIS data (2009). We selected the inpatient data of KNHDIIS and NHI patients sample. The weighted number of patients from NHI patients sample was 5,551,210 and the number of patients from KNHDIIS was 5,559,874. We classified the disease codes into principal diagnoses and other diagnoses, and we compared as one, two, three unit level. Also we calculated the agreement rate of each of them. Results: In the comparison of principal diagnoses, NHI claims data had more C code than KNHDIIS data did, whereas KNHDIIS data had more Z code than NHI claims data did. In the comparison of other diagnoses, NHI claims data had 2, 3 more codes than KNHDIIS data did. The overall agreement rate at three unit level was 76.5% in principal diagnoses and 46.8% in other diagnoses. Conclusion: Considering the large difference between the two data, the validity of disease codes in NHI Claims data seems to be low. To increase the validity of them, the definite detail coding indicator, the reinforcement of coding education, and the reform of system are needed.

  • Background: Studies investigating the association of 2R/3R polymorphism in the thymidylate synthase 5'-untranslated enhanced region (TSER) and colorectal cancer (CRC) risk have reported conflicting results. Thus, a meta-analysis was performed to summarize the data on the potential association. Methods: Pubmed, Embase and CBM databases were searched for all available studies. Links between the TSER 2R/3R polymorphism and CRC risk were estimated by odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results: Seven case-control studies with a total of 2723 cases and 4030 controls were included in this meta-analysis. The results showed that the 3R variant of TSER 2R/3R polymorphism contributes to CRC risk in two comparison models (OR 3R vs. 2R =1.10, 95%CI 1.02-1.18, P = 0.015; OR Homozygote comparison model = 1.22 1.04-1.43, 95%CI 1.04-1.43, P = 0.012). Subgroup analyses by ethnicity further demonstrated a contribution in Caucasians with three comparison models (OR 3R vs. 2R = 1.10, 95%CI 1.02-1.19, P = 0.015; OR Homozygote comparison model = 1.21, 95%CI 1.03-1.41, P = 0.019; OR Recessive comparison model = 1.18, 95%CI 1.05-1.33, P = 0.008). However, the association in the Asian population was still uncertain due to the limited data (all P values were more than 0.05). Conclusions: Our meta-analysis suggests that the 3R variant of Thymidylate synthase 5'-untranslated enhanced region 2R/3R polymorphism contributes to gastric cancer risk in the Caucasian population, while any association in Asian populations needs further study.

  • In this study, inter-laboratory comparison was done using elemental analyzer-isotope ratio mass spectrometers (EA-IRMSs) to determine carbon and nitrogen contents as well as stable carbon and nitrogen isotopic compositions (${\delta}^{13}C$ and ${\delta}^{15}N$) of five environmental samples containing lake and marine sediments, higher plant leaves, and fish muscle, and one organic analytical standard (Protein (Casein) Standard OAS). Five national laboratories participated in this comparison study, and each laboratory analyzed all five samples and the analytical standard. Results showed that variations in total organic carbon (TOC) and total nitrogen (TN) contents as well as ${\delta}^{13}C_{TOC}$ and ${\delta}^{15}N_{TN}$ values among the laboratories were large compared to the analytical uncertainties. The results highlighted the inhomogeneity of the test samples and thus, the need to select suitable standard reference materials for future inter-laboratory studies. Further inter-laboratory comparison exercises could promote good measurement practices in the acquisition of stable carbon and nitrogen isotopic composition data.

  • This paper compares the differences between Java virtual machine and x86 processor in data transfer viewpoint. Memory models of JVM and x86 are analyzed and the data transfer paths are identified. As all operations must be performed to the values on operand stack, a great many data transfer operation is unavoidable in JVM. We also lists the number of data transfer operations necessary for executing some typical high-level language statements including assignment, arithmetic, conditional, and iterative statements.
