Results obtained from the experiment conducted to find out e relationships between tuber decay, and water potential and bruising in or on the tubers, are summerized as follows ; 1) When potato tubers were bruised or injected with bacterial inoculum, the tubers with high water potential rotted more easily than the tubers with low potential. A big difference in the development of decay between high and low water potential tubers was found. 2) In tubers injected with different levels of inoculum. high water potential tubers were more susceptible to soft rot than low water potential tubers. 3) $ED_{50}$ of inoculum concentration was 8.5(log) at high water potential tubers and 9.8(log) at low water potential. A small difference between low and high water potential was detected. The results of this experiment show that potatoes should be handled carefully and must be dried after harvest to reduce decay development in shipment and storage.

Main monthly household surveys conducted by Korea National Statistical Office are economically active population survey(EAPS) and household income and expenditure survey(HIES). Samples of these two surveys are redesigned every 5 years based on Census. This paper is about sample redesign of household survey conducted in 2002 based on 2000 Census. Main improvements of 2002 sample redesign are the introduction of rotation sampling system, the expansion of HIES survey area from urban to whole country and the foundation of basement to make small area estimation for the unemployment statistics. Also the number of sample households within a enumeration district(ED) is reduced from 24 to 20. That makes it possible to select more ED samples which provides better precision for EAPS and HIES. To select representative samples for the population, different classification index is used for each metropolitan area and provinces.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical characteristics and outcome of patients who presented to the emergency department (ED) with cardiotoxicity caused by ingestion of Himalayan mad honey. Methods: Medical records of 12 patients who presented to the ED from January 1, 2005 to December 31, 2012 with cardiotoxicity caused by ingestion of Himalayan mad honey were retrospectively reviewed. Results: The mean age of patients was 54.5 years and 58.3% were men. The median amount of mad honey ingested was 30.0 cc, and the mean time from ingestion to onset of symptoms was 39.4 minutes. All patients had hypotension and bradycardia upon arrival in the ED. The initial electrocardiogram showed sinus bradycardia in seven patients, junctional bradycardia in four patients, and atrial fibrillation with slow ventricular response in one patient. Four patients were treated with intravenous normal saline solution only. Eight patients were treated with intravenous normal saline solution and atropine sulfate in a dose ranging from 0.5 to 2.0 mg. Blood pressure and pulse rate returned to normal limits within 24 hours in all patients. Conclusion: Our study showed that all patients with cardiotoxicity caused by ingestion of Himalayan mad honey had severe hypotension, bradycardia, and bradyarrythmias, including sinus bradycardia and junctional bradycardia and all patients responded well to conservative treatment, including intravenous normal saline solution and intravenous atropine sulfate.

Spotted wing drosophila (SWD) has emerged as a major invasive insect pest of small berry fruits in the Americas and Europe since the late 2000s. Thus, phytosanitary treatment of commodities for export is imperative to prevent the movement of viable SWD to newer areas. In the present study, all developmental stages of SWD were irradiated with different doses of gamma and electron beam radiation to assess developmental inhibition to identify potential quarantine doses of the radiations. Ionizing radiation induced developmental inhibition of all stages of SWD. The effective doses for 99% inhibition ($ED_{99}$) of hatching, pupariation, and adult emergence from irradiated eggs for gamma radiation were 882, 395 and 39 Gy, respectively, compared with 2849, 687, and 41 Gy, respectively, for electron beam radiation. The $ED_{99}$ for inhibition of pupariation and adult emergence in irradiated larvae were 703 and 47 Gy, respectively, for gamma radiation, and 619 and 33 Gy, respectively, for electron beam radiation. Pupal irradiation did not completely inhibit adult emergence, even at 300 Gy. However, irradiation with ${\geq}100Gy$ of puparia induced adult sterility, with no egg production at all. The $ED_{99}$ for inhibition of $F_1$ egg hatchability from adults irradiated with gamma radiation and electron beam radiation was estimated to be 424 and 125 Gy, respectively. The results of the present study suggest that gamma radiation and electron beam radiation are alternatives for phytosanitary treatment. Irradiation with 100 Gy could be suggested as a potential dose for egg, larval, and pupal quarantine treatment of SWD.

Overcrowding in an Emergency Department (ED) of hospital is a common phenomenon. To improve the service quality and system performance of the ED, a task assignment rule for the Registered Nurses (RNs) is proposed in this paper. At each task assignment point, the rule prioritizes all treatment requests based on the urgency which is determined by the multiple attributes such as accomplishment time of treatment task, elapsed time of treatment request, total remain time to patient discharge, and number of remain treatments. The values of partial urgency with a single criterion are determined and then overall urgency is computed to find the most urgent one among current requests with the importance weights assigned to the criteria. Through computer simulation, the performance of the proposed rule is compared with current rule in terms of the length of stay and system throughput in a simplified ED system of the hospital M.

Purpose: This study seeks to compare the dosimetric parameters of the bulk electron density (ED) approach and synthetic computed tomography (CT) image in terms of position variation of the air cavity in magnetic resonance-guided radiotherapy (MRgRT) for patients with pancreatic cancer. Methods: This study included nine patients that previously received MRgRT and their simulation CT and magnetic resonance (MR) images were collected. Air cavities were manually delineated on simulation CT and MR images in the treatment planning system for each patient. The synthetic CT images were generated using the deep learning model trained in a prior study. Two more plans with identical beam parameters were recalculated with ED maps that were either manually overridden by the cavities or derived from the synthetic CT. Dose calculation accuracy was explored in terms of dose-volume histogram parameters and gamma analysis. Results: The D_95% averages were 48.80 Gy, 48.50 Gy, and 48.23 Gy for the original, manually assigned, and synthetic CT-based dose distributions, respectively. The greatest deviation was observed for one patient, whose D_95% to synthetic CT was 1.84 Gy higher than the original plan. Conclusions: The variation of the air cavity position in the gastrointestinal area affects the treatment dose calculation. Synthetic CT-based ED modification would be a significant option for shortening the time-consuming process and improving MRgRT treatment accuracy.

Hyperspectral image is more increasing spectral resolution that Multi-spectral image. Because of that, each pixel of the hyperspectral image includes much more information and it is considered the most appropriate technic for land cover classification. but recent research of hyperspectral image is stayed land cover classification of general level. therefore we classified land cover of detail level using ED, SAM, SSS method and made Decision Tree from result of that. As a result, the overall accuracy of general level was improved by 1.68% and the overall accuracy of detail level was improved by 5.56%.

The methanol extract from the root of Croton cascarilloides Raeusch. was primarily evaluated for cytotoxic activity in the cultured human lung cancer cell line (A459) and showed cytotoxic potential with $ED_{50}$ value of $5.98\;{\mu}g/ml$. Bioassayguided fractionation of the root extract resulted in 3-acetyl aleuritolic acid, rubiadin-l-methyl ether, and julocrotine. The structures of the compounds were elucidated from the combination of spectroscopic data and references. In addition, the $^{13}C-NMR$ assignments of rubiadin-l-methyl ether were revised.

Graphene nanoplatelet (GNP)-reinforced alumina ($Al_2O_3$) is a promising material for micro-partapplications, particularly micro-nozzle shapes, because of its excellent wearresistance. In this study, a $Al_2O_3$/GNPcomposite with 15 vol% graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) was highly densified and fabricated via spark plasma sintering for micro-electrical discharge drilling (Micro-ED drilling) and the wear resistance property of the composite is evaluated via the ball-on-disk method. In addition, the diameter and shape of the micro-electrodes machined by wire electrical discharge grinding (WEDG), block electrical discharge grinding (BEDG), and new linear block moving electrical discharge grinding (LBMEDG) methods are systematically compared and analyzed to observe the micro-hole machining in the micro-ED drilling of the $Al_2O_3$/15vol% GNP composite.
