  • The purpose of this study was to identify the effect of structured patient education on knowledge of Hepatitis B type and behavior about self care in chronic hepatitis B patients, and to fine the strategy to promote their self care behavior. The research design was quasi-experiment research. The study method had been done by investigating the experimental group and control group through the questionnaire on 50 patients who had been out patient medicine department in U university hospital in Ulsan from september 1st 1997 to the end of October, 1997. The analysis of the collected material had been done for the homogeneity test in which general characterics of experimental group and control group had been tested by $x^2-test$ and the homogeneity test of the knowledge of hepatitis B type and self care behavior before by t-test. To test the hypothesis the t-test had been given for the difference of the knowledge of hepatitis B type and self care behavior between the two groups and the correlation between knowledge of hepatitis B type and self care behavior performance had been tested by Pearson's correlation coefficient. The results as follows : 1. The 1st hypothesis 'The experimental group which received the structured education should be higher in the knowledge of hepatitis B type than the control group' was supported(t=-6.25, P=.000). 2. The 2nd hypothesis 'The experimental group which received the structured education whould be higher in the self care behavior performance than the control group' was supported(t=-5.15, P=.000). 3. The 3rd hypothesis 'The higher the knowledge of hepatitis B type in the patient the higher the self care behavior performance degree' was supported(r=.492, P=.001). In conclusion, the patients who received the structured education showed the increase in the degree of knowledge of hepatitis B type and self care behavior performance. so the structured education had been judged the nursing intervention had been prerequisite in increasing knowledge of hepatitis B type and self care behavior performance of the chronic hepatitis B patients.

  • 아동을 위한 단어인지도 검사 (word recognition test, WRT)는 아동의 의사소통장애정도를 진단하고, 보청기 사용을 위한 처방을 하고, 청각재활과 언어치료의 계획을 수립하고, 병변부위를 판단하는데 유용하게 사용될 수 있다. 한국표준 학령전기용 단음절어표 (Korean standard monosyllabic word lists for preschoolers, KS-MWL-P)는 문헌에서 주어진 기준을 고려하여 개발되었다. 그러나 KS-MWL-P의 저자들은 어표의 개발과정 중 단지 8명만 참여하여 분석된 심리음향 기능곡선을 검증하기 위하여 더 많은 대상을 포함한 연구를 제안하였다. 그러므로 본 연구의 목적은 KS-MWL-P 어표의 제한성을 보완하기 위하여 심리음향기능분석으로 어표의 동질성을 연구하고자 한다. 정상청력을 가진 23명의 학령전기아동을 대상으로 100개의 KS-MWL-P단어가 그림과 함께 제시되었다. -10에서 40 dB dBIH.까지 여러 강도에서 각 단어의 인지도 검사를 계산하여 20%와 80% 정답률 기준의 선형기울기로 심리음향기능곡선을 수집하고 분석하였다. 연구결과 강도에 따라 정답률이 증가하는 S자형 심리음향기능곡선이 나타났고 각 단어와 표간 통계적 유의성은 나타나지 않았다. 표간 유사한 그래프 형태를 통해 우수한 동질성을 보여주었고 표 1,2,3,4의 평균기울기는 4.48, 3.86, 4.65, 4.50 이었으며 일원 분산분석으로 분석할 때 표간 유의성이 없는 것 (p>0.05)으로 나타나서 표간 난이도의 동질성에 문제가 없는 것으로 확인되었다. 그리고 항목 번호의 순서에 따른 기울기의 P값도 표 1, 2, 3, 4에서 0.93, 0.59, 0.91, 0.70으로 모두 유의하지 않아 모든 표에서 $1{\sim}10$, $1{\sim}20$, $1{\sim}25$의 항목간 차이는 없는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 KS-MWL-P는 낮은 번호의 항목은 더 어린 연령을 위하여 쉬운 단어로 배치하고자 하였으나 본 연구결과는 그렇지 못한 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 점을 고려할 때 어린 연령대를 위한 쉬운 단어가 낮은 항목에 배치되도록 항목의 배치를 재조정하여야 할 것으로 사료된다. 이러한 점을 제외하면 결론적으로 KS-MWL-P는 학령전기를 위한 임상과 재활의 평가 및 훈련도구로 유용한 것으로 입증되었다.

  • Background: Previous studies have generated conflicting evidence regarding associations between family history and survival after gastric cancer surgery. In this study, we investigated this question using a meta-analysis. Materials and Methods: To identify relevant studies, PubMed and Embase databases were searched up to June 2013. Two reviewers independently assessed search results and data extraction of included studies. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for overall survival (OS) were calculated based on fixed- or random-effects models. Homogeneity of effects across studies was assessed using $x^2$ test statistics and quantified by $I^2$. Results: A total of five studies were selected according to the inclusion criteria. The total number of patients included was 2,030, which ranged from 145 to 598 per study. There was no significant difference in OS by family history of cancer (HR=0.83, 95%CIs=0.50-1.38), but subgroup analysis of patients with a first-degree family history of cancer (HR=0.74, 95%CIs=0.60-0.93) and gastric cancer family history (HR=0.56, 95%CIs=0.41-0.76) tended to show better OS in these patients. Conclusions: This meta-analysis suggests that a first-degree family history of cancer or gastric cancer family history is associated with better survival of gastric cancer patients after surgery, after a systematic review of five previous studies. These results can be applied by clinicians when counselling patients regarding their risk of death from gastric cancer. Further study is needed to investigate the underlying mechanism between family history and survival in gastric cancer patients.

  • From January 2013 to October 2015, weed invasion control techniques was tested in the test road of Jungbunaeryuk expressway so as to collect preliminary data for the management methods of the upper exterior banking of expressway shoulders. Then, monitoring was conducted and its results are as follows. Mat (sheet), solidifying agent, and mulching (wood chips) were applied for the test and their initial effects of preventing weed invasion were all excellent. It was found that the homogeneity of the wood chip mulching method needs to improve. In the mat method and the mulching method were found to have the most excellent economic feasibility and aesthetics, respectively. The covering degree was found to be the highest at 80% in the control site, followed by the wood chip site at 20% and the solidifying agent site and the non-woven fabric site at 5% each. As for species diversity, the control had the largest variety of species. Two years after the construction, many different species of plants invaded and were growing. Plants including weed didn't tend to invade the slopes applied with non-woven fabric. In addition, weed didn't invade the solidifying agent site and the aesthetics of the upper exterior banking of expressway shoulders was found to be excellent. The wood chip site was found to require consistent management for preventing weed invasion. The mat (sheet) site, the solidifying agent site, and the wood chip mulching site were found to have excellent weed prevention effects. As time passed, the mat (sheet) site and the solidifying agent site showed better weed prevention effects. However, they need consistent monitoring for further application.

  • In this study, the effect of central fuel injection on a coaxial laminar $CH_{4}/air$ flame was experimented at the defined premixing condition(${\Phi}=1.90$, ${\sigma}=50/75/100%$, x/D=10). The partial premixing parameter are the equivalence ratio that total fuel is fixed at 200cc/min, the fuel split degree which means the percentage of fuel entering the outer tube to the total amount, and the mixing distance indicating the nonreactant mixture's homogeneity between inner tube top and burner exit. The object is to investigate the flame structure and chemiluminescence characteristics of laminar partial premixed flame as changing mixing parameters. The radical signal was acquired from ICCD camera and PMT. Each intensity was compared with Abel inverted value for measuring the effect of background light on the peak signal location and the intensity at central preheat zone. The results show that the peak location of each radical was broaden as the fuel split degree increasing because the mixing quality was enhanced. and $OH^{\ast}$ is a good indicator for flame front between reaction and preheat zone. At last $CH_{2}^{\ast}$ has the same tendency with $CH^{\ast}$ but a thinner reaction zone than $CH^{\ast}$ due to a rapid decay on the burned gas side.

  • A large NaX type zeolite crystal of a uniform particle size of 20${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ are grown with various H2O content by hydrothermal reaction and added seed crystal (2~3 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$) to reactant solution as a function of different adding seed levels from 3 to 15 %. The result that increased purity of NaX zeolite above 95% and homogeneity of crystal size by increasing adding seed levels, also decreased crystallization time. It was explained that adding seed to synthesis solution leaded out increase of surface area of physical contact reaction and directed growth of seed crystal, so more rapid consumption of reaction gel as increase seeding levels.

  • The aim of this study was to evaluate, through the use of microsatellite markers, the current genetic diversity and the relationships of 375 individuals from 8 local sheep breeds reared in typical breeding farms in the northwest of China, and moreover, to offer a contribution towards genetic conservation decisions for the studied breeds. The expected heterozygosities and allelic richness for the 8 breeds varied from 0.474 to 0.623 and from 3.8 to 5.4, respectively. All the populations showed a significant deficit in heterozygosity and a relatively low level of genetic diversity. Furthermore, the high positive FIS value (ranging from 0.255 to 0.556) indicated inbreeding to be one of the main causes for high genetic homogeneity and lack of heterozygosity in all breeds. The clustering analysis performed with the DISPAN package showed that Aletai, Kazak, Bashibai and Bayinbuluke were grouped together, and Hetian, Qira black and Duolang were grouped together, which indicated that the relationship among breeds displayed some degree of consistency with their geographical distribution, production and origin. These findings indicate that improved conservation measures must be undertaken to avoid further losses of genetic diversity and minimize inbreeding represented by these breeds.

  • The xylanase from alkali-tolerant Bacillus sp. YA-14 was purified to homogeneity by CM-cellulose, Sephadex G-50, and hydroxyapatite column chromatographies. The molecular weight of the purified enzyme was estimated to be 20, 000 Da by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The purified enzyme slightly hydrolyzed carboxymethyl cellulose and Avicel, but did not hydrolyze soluble starch, dextran, pullulan, and ${\rho}-nitrophenyl-{\beta}$-D-xylopyranoside. The maximum degree of hydrolysis by enzyme for birchwood xylan and oat spelts xylan were 47 and 40%, respectively. The Michaelis constants for birchwood xylan and oat spelts xylan were calculated to be 3.03 mg/ml and 5.0 mg/ml, respectively. The activity of the xylanase was inhibited reversibly by $HgCl_2$, and showed competitive inhibition by N-bromosuccinimide, which probably indicates the involvement of tryptophan residue in the active center of the enzyme. The Xylanase was identified to be xylose-producing endo-type xylanase and did not show the enzymatic activities which cleave the branch point of the xylan structure.

  • This study investigates the presence of the day-of-the-week anomaly in exchange rate for 30 developing countries with free floating exchange rate regimes using daily data from January 2, 2011 to December 31, 2019. First, we apply the GARCH panel to estimate the intraday effect for all the sampled countries. Second, we run poolability test to check whether the coefficients of the GARCH panel are the same for all countries sampled. The result of poolability test rejects the homogeneity assumption. This implies that our sample countries contain heterogeneity. Third, we apply mean-group estimation by averaging the coefficients for all individual GARCH estimations. Fourth, we divided our sample of developing countries into three groups based on capital restriction index for the reason that the effect of monetary policy on the exchange rate depends on the degree of capital account liberalization. The empirical evidence for the return equation suggests that Mondays are connected with lower volatility whereas Thursdays experiences higher return compared to Tuesdays. The lowest estimated coefficient for full sample, group 1 and group 2, is Friday, but for group 2 is Thursday. We find similar result for the volatility equations, which show that Monday returns are lower compared to Tuesday.
