The purpose of this study was to investigate the shear bond strength and marginal microleakage of composite to enamel and dentin according to different treatment methods when the applied bonding agent was contaminated by artificial saliva. For the shear bond strength test, the buccal and occlusal surfaces of one hundred twenty molar teeth were ground to expose enamel(n=60) and dentin surfaces(n=60). The specimens were randomly assigned into control and 5 experimental groups with 10 samples in each group. In control group, a bonding system(Scotchbond$^{TM}$ Multi-Purpose plus) and a composite resin(Z-100$^{TM}$) was bonded on the specimens according to manufacture's directions. Experimental groups were subdivided into 5 groups. After polymerization of an adhesive, they were contaminated with at artificial saliva on enamel and dentin surfaces: Experimental group 1 ; artificial saliva was dried with compressed air. Experimental group 2 ; artificial saliva was rinsed with air-water spray and dried. Experimental group 3 ; artificial saliva was rinsed, dried and applied an adhesive. Experimental group 4 ; artificial saliva was rinsed, dried, and then etched using phosphoric acid followed by an adhesive. Experimental group 5, artificial saliva was rinsed, dried, and then etched with phosphoric acid followed by consecutive application of both a primer and an adhesive. Composite resin(Z-100$^{TM}$) was bonded on saliva-treated enamel and dentin surfaces. The shear bond strengths were measured by universal testing machine(AGS-1000 4D, Shimaduzu Co. Japan) with a crosshead speed of 5mm/minute under 50kg load cell. Failure modes of fracture sites were examined under stereomicroscope. The data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA and Tukey's test. For the marginal microleakage test, Class V cavities were prepared on the buccal surfaces of sixty molars. The specimens were divided into control and experimental groups. Cavities in experimental group were contaminated with artificial saliva and those surfaces in each experimental groups received the same treatments as for the shear test. Cavities were filled with Z-100. Specimens were immersed in 0.5% basic fuchsin dye for 24 hours and embedded in transparent acrylic resin and sectioned buccolingually with diamond wheel saw. Four sections were obtained from the one specimen. Marginal microleakages of enamel and dentin were scored under streomicroscope and averaged from four sections. The data were analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis test and Fisher's LSD. The results of this study were as follows. 1. The shear bond strength to enamel showed lower value in experimental group 1(13.20${\pm}$2.94MPa) and experimental group 2(13.20${\pm}$2.94MPa) than in control(20.03${\pm}$4.47MPa), experimental group 4(20.96${\pm}$4.25MPa) and experimental group 5(21.25${\pm}$4.48MPa) (p<0.05). 2. The shear bond strength to dentin showed lower value in experimental group 1(9.35${\pm}$4.11MPa) and experimental group 2(9.83${\pm}$4.11MPa) than in control group(17.86${\pm}$4.03MPa), experimental group 4(15.04${\pm}$3.22MPa) and experimental group 5(14.33${\pm}$3.00MPa) (p<0.05). 3. Both on enamel and dentin surfaces, experimental group 1 and 2 showed many adhesive failures, but control and experimental group 3, 4 and 5 showed mixed and cohesive failures. 4. Enamel marginal microleakage was the highest in experimental group 1 and there was a significant difference in comparison with other groups (p<0.05). 5. Dentin marginal microleakages of experimental group 1 and 2 were higher than those of other groups (p<0.05). This result suggests that treatment methods, re-etching with 35% phosphoric acid followed by re-application of adhesive or repeating all adhesive procedures, will produce good effect on both shear bond strength and microleakage of composite to enamel and dentin if the polymerized bonding agent was contaminated by saliva.

In order that nursing care an essential quality of nursing practice be acceptable and satisfying, it is necessary that client's culture be respected and that nursing practice be appropriate to that culture. Since cultural elements are an important influence on health practices and life patterns related to medical treatment, recovery from and prevention of disease, nurses need to have an understanding and knowledge of social and cultural phenomena to aid in the planning of nursing interventions. To understand the health practices surrounding health and illness, the health beliefs and practices of both folk and professional healing systems should be ascertained. Cultural data are required to provide care of high quality to clients and to reduce possible conflict between the client and the nurse. It is nursing's goal to provide clients from various cultures with quality nursing care which is satisfying and valuable. The problem addressed by this study was to identify Korean health practices which would contribute to the planning of professional caring practice with the culture : ultimately this study was intended to make a contribution to the development of the science of nursing. The concrete objectives of this study were ; 1) to identify Korean health practices, 2) to interpret the identitial health practices through traditional cultural thought, and 3) to compare the Korean health practices with those of other cultures. The investigator used the ethnosceintific approach outlined by spradly in a qualitative study. To discover ancestral wisdom and knowledge related to traditional health practeces, the subjects of this study were selected from residents of a small rural mountain village in south west Korea, a place considered to be maintaining and transmitting the traditional culture in a relatively well -preserved state because of being isolated from the modern world. The number of subjects was 18, aged 71 to 89. Research data were collected from January 8 to March 31, 1990. Five categories of health practices were identified : “Manage one's own mind”, “Moderation in all thing”, “Live in accord with nature”, “Live in mutuality with others”, and “Live to the best of one's ability”. Values derived from these ways of thinking from Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism help fashion a traditional way of life, examplified by the saying “Benifience to all”. Korean thought and philosophy is influenced primerily by Confucianism, Confucian principles of ethics, embedded deeply in the peoples' minds, form the idea that “heaven and human being are intimately united” based on concept that “heaven is, so to speak, reason”. Twoe Gae's theory of existential subjectivity develops the concept of self which is the basis of the spirit of reverence in modern Confucian philosophy. The human md is granted from heaven out of the idea of matter, and what control the mind is the spirit of reverence. Hence the idea of “The primacy of the mind" and provided that one should control one's own mind. The precepts of duty to parents, respect for elders and worship of ancestors, and moderation in all behavior put a restraint on life which directed that one live earnestly according to Nature's laws with their neighbors. Not only Confucianism, but also Buddism and Taoism have had an important effect upon these patterns of ideas. When compared with western culture, Korean health practices tend to be more inclusive, abstract and intuitive while westerner health practices found to be mere concrete, practical and personal. Values and beliefs based and pragmatism and existentialism infuence western civilization, Ethical values may be founded on utilitarianism, which considers what is good for the persons in their circumstances as the basis of conduct and takes a serious view of their practical lives including human aspirations rather than an absolute truth. These philosophical and ethical ideas are foundations for health practices related to active, practical and progressive attitudes. This study should be enable nursing not only to understand clients as reflections of the traditional culture when planning nursing practice, but to dovelop health education corresponding to cultural requiments for the purpose of protection against disease and improvement of health, and thus promote sound health practice. Eventually it is hoped that through these processes quality nursing care as the central idea of the science of nursing will be achieved.

During bonding procedure of composite resin, the prepared cavity can be contaminated by saliva. In this study, marginal microleakage and shear bond strength of a composite resin to primed enamel and dentin treated with artificial saliva(Taliva$^{(R)}$) were evaluated. For the marginal microleakage test, Class V cavities were prepared in the buccal surfaces of fifty molars. The samples were randomly assigned into 5 groups with 10 samples in each group. Control group was applied with a bonding system (Scotchbond$^{TM}$ Multi-Purpose plus) according to manufacture's directions without saliva contamination. Experimental groups were divided into 4 groups and contaminated with artificial saliva for 30 seconds after priming: Experimental 1 group ; artificial saliva was dried with compressed air only, Experimental 2 group ; artificial saliva was rinsed and dried. Experimental 3 group ; cavities were etched with 35% phosphoric acid for 15 seconds after rinsing and drying artificial saliva. Experimental 4 group ; cavities were etched with 35% phosphoric acid for 15 seconds and primer was reapplied after rinsing and drying artificial saliva. All the cavities were applied a bonding agent and filled with a composite resin (Z-100$^{TM}$). Specimens were immersed in 0.5% basic fuschin dye for 24 hours and embedded in transparent acrylic resin and sectioned buccolingually with diamond wheel saw. Four sections were obtained from one specimen. Degree of marginal leakage was scored under stereomicroscope and their scores were averaged from four sections. The data were analyzed by Kruscal-Wallis test and Fisher's LSD. For the shear bond strength test, the buccal or occlusal surfaces of one hundred molar teeth were ground to expose enamel(n=50) or dentin(n=50) using diamond wheel saw and its surface was smoothed with Lapping and Polishing Machine(South Bay Technology Co., U.S.A.). Samples were divided into 5 groups. Treatment of saliva-contaminated enamel and dentin surfaces was same as the marginal microleakage test and composite resin was bonded via a gelatin capsule. All specimens were stored in distilled water for 48 hours. The shear bond strengths were measured by universal testing machine (AGS-1000 4D, Shimaduzu Co., Japan) with a crosshead speed of 5 mm/minute. Failure mode of fracture sites was examined under stereomicroscope. The data were analyzed by ANOVA and Tukey's studentized range test. The results of this study were as follows : 1. Enamel marginal microleakage showed no significant difference among groups. 2. Dentinal marginal microleakages of control, experimental 2 and 4 groups were lower than those of experimental 1 and 3 groups (p<0.05). 3. The shear bond strength to enamel was the highest value in control group (20.03${\pm}$4.47MPa) and the lowest value in experimental 1 group (13.28${\pm}$6.52MPa). There were significant differences between experimental 1 group and other groups (p<0.05). 4. The shear bond strength to dentin was higher in control group (17.87${\pm}$4.02MPa) and experimental 4 group (16.38${\pm}$3.23MPa) than in other groups, its value was low in experimental 1 group (3.95${\pm}$2.51 MPa) and experimental 2 group (6.72${\pm}$2.26MPa)(p<0.05). 5. Failure mode of fractured site on the enamel showed mostly adhesive failures in experimental 1 and 3 groups. 6. Failure mode of fractured site on the dentin did not show adhesive failures in control group, but showed mostly adhesive failure in experimental groups. As a summary of above results, if the primed tooth surface was contaminated with artificial saliva, primer should be reapplied after re-etching it.

At the initial stage of Internet advertising, banner advertising came into fashion. As the Internet developed into a central part of daily lives and the competition in the on-line advertising market was getting fierce, there was not enough space for banner advertising, which rushed to portal sites only. All these factors was responsible for an upsurge in advertising prices. Consequently, the high-cost and low-efficiency problems with banner advertising were raised, which led to an emergence of keyword advertising as a new type of Internet advertising to replace its predecessor. In the beginning of 2000s, when Internet advertising came to be activated, display advertisement including banner advertising dominated the Net. However, display advertising showed signs of gradual decline, and registered minus growth in the year 2009, whereas keyword advertising showed rapid growth and started to outdo display advertising as of the year 2005. Keyword advertising refers to the advertising technique that exposes relevant advertisements on the top of research sites when one searches for a keyword. Instead of exposing advertisements to unspecified individuals like banner advertising, keyword advertising, or targeted advertising technique, shows advertisements only when customers search for a desired keyword so that only highly prospective customers are given a chance to see them. In this context, it is also referred to as search advertising. It is regarded as more aggressive advertising with a high hit rate than previous advertising in that, instead of the seller discovering customers and running an advertisement for them like TV, radios or banner advertising, it exposes advertisements to visiting customers. Keyword advertising makes it possible for a company to seek publicity on line simply by making use of a single word and to achieve a maximum of efficiency at a minimum cost. The strong point of keyword advertising is that customers are allowed to directly contact the products in question through its more efficient advertising when compared to the advertisements of mass media such as TV and radio, etc. The weak point of keyword advertising is that a company should have its advertisement registered on each and every portal site and finds it hard to exercise substantial supervision over its advertisement, there being a possibility of its advertising expenses exceeding its profits. Keyword advertising severs as the most appropriate methods of advertising for the sales and publicity of small and medium enterprises which are in need of a maximum of advertising effect at a low advertising cost. At present, keyword advertising is divided into CPC advertising and CPM advertising. The former is known as the most efficient technique, which is also referred to as advertising based on the meter rate system; A company is supposed to pay for the number of clicks on a searched keyword which users have searched. This is representatively adopted by Overture, Google's Adwords, Naver's Clickchoice, and Daum's Clicks, etc. CPM advertising is dependent upon the flat rate payment system, making a company pay for its advertisement on the basis of the number of exposure, not on the basis of the number of clicks. This method fixes a price for advertisement on the basis of 1,000-time exposure, and is mainly adopted by Naver's Timechoice, Daum's Speciallink, and Nate's Speedup, etc, At present, the CPC method is most frequently adopted. The weak point of the CPC method is that advertising cost can rise through constant clicks from the same IP. If a company makes good use of strategies for maximizing the strong points of keyword advertising and complementing its weak points, it is highly likely to turn its visitors into prospective customers. Accordingly, an advertiser should make an analysis of customers' behavior and approach them in a variety of ways, trying hard to find out what they want. With this in mind, her or she has to put multiple keywords into use when running for ads. When he or she first runs an ad, he or she should first give priority to which keyword to select. The advertiser should consider how many individuals using a search engine will click the keyword in question and how much money he or she has to pay for the advertisement. As the popular keywords that the users of search engines are frequently using are expensive in terms of a unit cost per click, the advertisers without much money for advertising at the initial phrase should pay attention to detailed keywords suitable to their budget. Detailed keywords are also referred to as peripheral keywords or extension keywords, which can be called a combination of major keywords. Most keywords are in the form of texts. The biggest strong point of text-based advertising is that it looks like search results, causing little antipathy to it. But it fails to attract much attention because of the fact that most keyword advertising is in the form of texts. Image-embedded advertising is easy to notice due to images, but it is exposed on the lower part of a web page and regarded as an advertisement, which leads to a low click through rate. However, its strong point is that its prices are lower than those of text-based advertising. If a company owns a logo or a product that is easy enough for people to recognize, the company is well advised to make good use of image-embedded advertising so as to attract Internet users' attention. Advertisers should make an analysis of their logos and examine customers' responses based on the events of sites in question and the composition of products as a vehicle for monitoring their behavior in detail. Besides, keyword advertising allows them to analyze the advertising effects of exposed keywords through the analysis of logos. The logo analysis refers to a close analysis of the current situation of a site by making an analysis of information about visitors on the basis of the analysis of the number of visitors and page view, and that of cookie values. It is in the log files generated through each Web server that a user's IP, used pages, the time when he or she uses it, and cookie values are stored. The log files contain a huge amount of data. As it is almost impossible to make a direct analysis of these log files, one is supposed to make an analysis of them by using solutions for a log analysis. The generic information that can be extracted from tools for each logo analysis includes the number of viewing the total pages, the number of average page view per day, the number of basic page view, the number of page view per visit, the total number of hits, the number of average hits per day, the number of hits per visit, the number of visits, the number of average visits per day, the net number of visitors, average visitors per day, one-time visitors, visitors who have come more than twice, and average using hours, etc. These sites are deemed to be useful for utilizing data for the analysis of the situation and current status of rival companies as well as benchmarking. As keyword advertising exposes advertisements exclusively on search-result pages, competition among advertisers attempting to preoccupy popular keywords is very fierce. Some portal sites keep on giving priority to the existing advertisers, whereas others provide chances to purchase keywords in question to all the advertisers after the advertising contract is over. If an advertiser tries to rely on keywords sensitive to seasons and timeliness in case of sites providing priority to the established advertisers, he or she may as well make a purchase of a vacant place for advertising lest he or she should miss appropriate timing for advertising. However, Naver doesn't provide priority to the existing advertisers as far as all the keyword advertisements are concerned. In this case, one can preoccupy keywords if he or she enters into a contract after confirming the contract period for advertising. This study is designed to take a look at marketing for keyword advertising and to present effective strategies for keyword advertising marketing. At present, the Korean CPC advertising market is virtually monopolized by Overture. Its strong points are that Overture is based on the CPC charging model and that advertisements are registered on the top of the most representative portal sites in Korea. These advantages serve as the most appropriate medium for small and medium enterprises to use. However, the CPC method of Overture has its weak points, too. That is, the CPC method is not the only perfect advertising model among the search advertisements in the on-line market. So it is absolutely necessary that small and medium enterprises including independent shopping malls should complement the weaknesses of the CPC method and make good use of strategies for maximizing its strengths so as to increase their sales and to create a point of contact with customers.

쥐의 난포를 대상으로 한 연구는 대부분 임상에서 암 치료에 사용되는 선량보다 높은 선량이 사용되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 암 치료에 사용되는 단일조사 방사선 선량이 쥐의 난포 퇴축에 미치는 영향에 대해 알아보고자 하였다. 본 연구에는 4 주령의 흰쥐(Sprague-Dawley계통)를 실험 동물로 사용하였다. 방사선을 조사하지 않은 대조군, 2 cGy 조사군, 2 Gy 조사군으로 나누어 방사선을 4 Gy $min^{-1}$ 선량으로 조사하였다. 이때 사용된 방사선속은 6 MV-X선(Mevatron 67, Siemens, Germany)을 사용하였으며, 조사 면적은 $30{\times}30cm$, SSD (source-surface-distance)는 100 cm 거리에서 배측 방향으로 난소를 향해 단일 전신조사하였다. 2 cGy군과 2 Gy군은 조사 24 시간 후에 경추 탈구사시킨 후 개복하고, 생리적 식염수 내에서 난소를 적출하였다. 방사선에 의한 난포의 형태학적인 변화와 난포의 발육단계 정도를 파악하기 위해 H & E 염색을 실시하였다. 난포의 폐쇄가 진행되면서 나타나는 난포 과립세포의 세포고사 정도를 면역조직화학적으로 관찰하기 위해 절편화된 DNA를 염색할 수 있는 TUNEL 염색을 실시하였다. SPSSWIN(ver.19.0)프로그램을 이용하여, 전체난포에 대한 폐쇄된 난포의 비율과 난포의 각 발육단계에서 전체난포 중 폐쇄가 일어나지 않은 정상난포의 비율을 구하여 평균${\pm}$표준편차로 나타내었으며, 비모수검정의 Mann Whitney 테스트를 이용하여 비교하였다. 전체난포에 대한 퇴축난포의 비율이 2 Gy군은 대조군(p=0.011)과 2 cGy군(p=0.025) 보다 통계학적으로 유의하게 높았다. 난포동형성전 난포에서는 2 Gy군이 대조군 보다 유의하게 낮은 정상난포의 비율을 보였다(64.0 vs. 87.7, p=0.027). 난포동 난포에서는 2 cGy군이 대조군과(53.4 vs. 39.8, p=0.020) 2 Gy군(vs. 33.9, p=0.053) 보다 정상난포의 비율이 유의하게 증가하였고, 2 Gy군이 대조군 보다 낮은 정상난포 비율(33.9 vs. 39.8, p=0.522)을 보였다. 임상에서 암 치료에 사용되는 2 Gy의 단일조사 방사선 선량은 쥐의 난포 퇴축에 유의한 영향을 미쳤다.

다양한 빅데이터 기술이 발전함에 따라, 기업의 전략결정에 있어서 과거에는 의사결정자의 직관이나 경험에 의존하는 경향이 있었다면, 현재는 데이터를 활용한 과학적이고 분석적인 접근이 이루어지고 있다. 이에 많은 기업들이 경영정보시스템 중의 하나인 비즈니스 인텔리전스 (Business Intelligence) 시스템의 예측분석 기능을 활용하고 있다. 하지만, 이러한 시스템이 미래의 경영환경 변화를 예측하고 기업의 의사결정을 돕는 조언자 (Advisor)로서 역할을 한다고 가정할 때, 시스템에서 제공하는 분석결과가 의사결정자에게 도움을 주는 조언 (Advice) 의 역할을 하지 못하는 경우가 많은 실정이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 미래예측의 문제에 있어 의사결정자가 시스템의 조언을 따르는데 영향을 미치는 요소들과 영향력에 대해 분석하고, 그 결과를 바탕으로 데이터 기반의 의사결정을 보다 적극적으로 지원하는 시스템 환경을 제시하고자 한다. 좀 더 구체적으로는 예측 과정에 대한 자세한 설명이나 근거 제시가 시스템의 예측결과에 대한 의사결정자의 수용정도에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 이를 위하여 193명의 실험자를 대상으로 영화의 개봉 주 매출액을 예측하는 업무를 수행하고, 예측에 대한 설명의 길이와 조언자의 유형(사람과 시스템의 조언 비교)뿐 아니라 의사결정자의 개인 특성이 의사결정자의 조언 수용정도에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 시스템에서 제공하는 조언 내용인 예측결과와 설명에 대해 의사결정가가 느끼는 유용성, 신뢰성, 만족도가 조언의 수용에 미치는 영향도 분석하였다. 본 연구는 시스템의 분석결과를 조언으로 보고 조언자와 조언에 관한 의사결정학 분야의 선행연구를 접목시켜 경영정보시스템 연구 분야를 확장하였다는 점에서 연구의 의의가 있고, 실무적으로도 데이터 기반의 의사결정을 보다 적극적으로 지원할 수 있는 시스템 환경을 만들기 위해서 고려해야 할 점들을 제시함으로써 시스템 활용을 위한 정책결정에도 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 본다.

박테리아와 진균의 유전체 정보 탐색을 통하여 이차대사 생합성을 지정하는 다수의 잠재 유전자군을 찾을 수 있으며, 유전체 정보를 기반으로 특정 유전자의 발현을 활성화하여 잠재 유전자군의 생성물을 추론하고, 해당 물질의 생물학적 기능을 연구하는 것이 가능하다. 동아시아 지역에서 잘 알려진 식용 사상진균 홍국에 대하여 몇 몇 유전체 정보가 공개되어있으며, 본 연구에서는 Monascus purpureus ${\Delta}MpPKS5$ 균주에서 polyketide synthase-nonribosomal peptide synthase 유전자 Mpfus1 상단에 Aspergillus gpdA 프로모터를 삽입하는 방식으로 이 유전자의 발현을 활성화하였다. Mpfus1 유전자군은 2-pyrrolidone/conjugated polyene 구조를 갖는 물질의 생합성 유전자군들과 높은 유사성을 보이며, 이들 화합물 그룹에서 진균 독소인 fusarin이 잘 알려져 있다. ${\Delta}MpPKS5$ 균주는 홍국 azaphilone 색소 생산 능력이 소실된 균주이며 색소 및 자외선 흡수 특성을 보이는 화합물들의 동정에 적절한 균주이다. Mpfus1 활성화는 균사체가 노란색을 띠도록 유도하며, 균사체의 methanol 추출액은 365 nm에서 최대 흡광도를 보임을 확인할 수 있었다. 해당 추출액의 HPLC 분석을 통하여 다수의 화합물들이 포함되어 있음을 확인할 수 있었으며 이를 통하여 MpFus1 효소의 생성물이 대사적, 화학적으로 불안정함을 추론할 수 있다. Mpfus1 활성화 균주 추출물을 LC-MS로 분석하여 MpFus1 생성물의 구조를 유추하여 Mpfus1 유전자군이 fusarin의 탈메틸 유사체 생합성을 지정하는 것으로 제안할 수 있었다. 본 연구는 홍국 균주에서 유전체 기반-미지 화합물 발굴 연구의 예를 제시하고 홍국 균주에서 새로운 생리활성의 동정 가능성을 시사하여 준다.
