  • 이물 흡인은 영아와 어린 소아에서 흔히 발생하는 사고이다. 진단이 늦거나 기도 내에 이물이 오래 머물게 되면 질식의 위험뿐만 아니라 폐렴, 무기폐, 또는 기관지 확장증 등의 합병증이 발생한다. 또한 세기관지염이나 크루프, 천식 등으로 잘못 진단하고 치료하는 경우가 많이 있게 된다. 저자들은 초기에 세기관지염으로 진단되었다가 기관지 이물 흡인으로 확진되어 치료한 증례를 통해, 자세한 병력청취와 세밀한 진찰소견에 의해 이물 흡인을 강력히 의심하는 것이 진단에 매우 중요함을 인식하였다. 이 때, 흉부 방사선 이상 소견이 미약하더라도 무시해서는 아니되며 이상 소견이 뚜렷하지 않다면 시간차를 두고 반복 검사를 하는 것이 진단에 도움이 된다. 이물 흡인의 확진에는 다중검출 나선형 CT 검사가 매우 유용하게 이용될 수 있다.

  • The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway is the major regulatory mechanism in a number of cellular processes for selective degradation of proteins and involves three steps: (1) ATP dependent activation of ubiquitin by E1 enzyme, (2) transfer of activated ubiquitin to E2 and (3) transfer of ubiquitin to the protein to be degraded by E3 complex. F-box proteins are subunit of SCF complex and involved in specificity for a target substrate to be degraded. F-box proteins regulate many important biological processes such as embryogenesis, floral development, plant growth and development, biotic and abiotic stress, hormonal responses and senescence. However, little is known about the F-box genes in wheat. The draft genome sequence of wheat (IWGSC Reference Sequence v1.0 assembly) used to analysis a genome-wide survey of the F-box gene family in wheat. The Hidden Markov Model (HMM) profiles of F-box (PF00646), F-box-like (PF12937), F-box-like 2 (PF13013), FBA (PF04300), FBA_1 (PF07734), FBA_2 (PF07735), FBA_3 (PF08268) and FBD (PF08387) domains were downloaded from Pfam database were searched against IWGSC Reference Sequence v1.0 assembly. RNA-seq paired-end libraries from different stages of wheat, such as stages of seedling, tillering, booting, day after flowering (DAF) 1, DAF 10, DAF 20, and DAF 30 were conducted and sequenced by Illumina HiSeq2000 for expression analysis of F-box protein genes. Basic analysis including Hisat, HTseq, DEseq, gene ontology analysis and KEGG mapping were conducted for differentially expressed gene analysis and their annotation mappings of DEGs from various stages. About 950 F-box domain proteins identified by Pfam were mapped to wheat reference genome sequence by blastX (e-value < 0.05). Among them, more than 140 putative F-box protein genes were selected by fold changes cut-offs of > 2, significance p-value < 0.01, and FDR<0.01. Expression profiling of selected F-box protein genes were shown by heatmap analysis, and average linkage and squared Euclidean distance of putative 144 F-box protein genes by expression patterns were calculated for clustering analysis. This work may provide valuable and basic information for further investigation of protein degradation mechanism by ubiquitin proteasome system using F-box proteins during wheat development stages.

  • Objective To compare the pain-reducing effect of forest bathing alone versus forest bathing in combination with stretching and strengthening exercises in patients with chronic posterior neck pain. Methods Sixty-four subjects with posterior neck pain that had lasted more than 3 months were enrolled. They were randomly divided into a forest bathing alone (FBA) group and a forest bathing with exercise (FBE) group; each group included 32 subjects. All subjects from both groups walked every morning in the forest for about 2 hours for 5 days. In the afternoon, the FBE group did a stretching and strengthening exercise for about 4 hours; the FBA group had free time in the woods. Visual analog scale (VAS) on one day, VAS over the previous week, neck disability index (NDI), EuroQol 5D-3L VAS (EQ VAS) and index (EQ index), McGill pain questionnaire (MPQ), the number of trigger points in the posterior neck region (TRPs), and the range of motion of the cervical spine were evaluated on the first and last day of the program and compared between the two groups. Results The number of TRPs were significantly reduced in the FBE group compared with the FBA group (p=0.013). However, the other scales showed no significant difference between the two groups. Conclusion When patients with chronic posterior neck pain underwent a short-term forest bathing (less than 7 days) program, FBE was more effective in the reduction of the number of TRPs than FBA. However, all other pain measurement scales we evaluated showed no statistically significant difference between the two protocols.

  • In order to express recombinant porcine TGF-${\beta}1$ protein in a baculovirus expression system the entire TGF-${\beta}1$gene containing extra amino acids at the N terminus was cloned into pFBa and pFBb of the Bac-To-$Bac^{TM}$ baculovirus expression system. One of the clones contained 106 extra amino acids and was designated pFBa-106 TGF-${\beta}1$, and the other had 28 extra amino acids and was designated pFBb-28 TGF-${\beta}1$. The orientation of the gene was identified with restriction enzyme mapping and PCR with internal TGF-${\beta}1$ primers. Sf-9 cells were infected at a m.o.i. of 10 by the recombinant viruses generated from the two expected sizes of 55 kD and 46.4kD. these precursor forms of TGF-${\beta}1$ with a polyclonal antibody against human TGF-${\beta}1$. No mature form of TGF-${\beta}1$ protein was detected on SDS gels and an immunoblot indicated that TGF-${\beta}1$ precursor is not properlu processed in insect cells.

  • This paper considers a postal transportation planning problem in the transportation network of the form of hub and spoke Given mail sorting centers and an exchange center, available vehicles and amount of mails to be transported between mail sorting centers, postal transportation planning is to make a transportation plan without violating various restrictions. The objective is to minimize the total transportation cost. To solve the problem, a tabu search algorithm is proposed. The algorithm is composed of a route construction procedure and a route improvement procedure to improve a solution obtained by the route construction procedure using a tabu search. The tabu search uses the best-admissible strategy, BA, and the first-best-admissible strategy, FBA. The algorithm was tested on problems consisting of 11, 16 and 21 mail sorting centers including one exchange center. Solutions of the problems consisting of 11 mail sorting centers including one exchange center were compared with optimal solutions On average, solutions using BA strategy were within 0.287% of the optimum and solutions using FBA strategy were within 0.508% of the optimum. Computational results show that the proposed algorithm can solve practically sized problems within a reasonable time and the quality of the solution is very good.

  • 본 연구에서는 혈전용해능이 우수한 Bacillus sp. sm26을 선별하고 신품종 기능성 콩인 노란 아가콩(YA)와 검정 아가콩(BA)을 발효시킨 발효콩(FYA, FBA)의 혈전용해 활성과 70% ethanol 추출(FYAE, FBAE)에 대한 항산화 효능을 조사하였다. FYA와 FBA의 혈전용해 활성은 각각 $6.38{\pm}0.5$$6.83{\pm}0.5\;U/ml$로 대두 발효물(FSB)보다 각각 1.3배와 1.4배 높은 것으로 나타났다. 총 페놀 함량은 FYAE와 FBAE가 각각 $3.40{\pm}0.44\;mg/g$, $2.45{\pm}0.20\;mg/g$으로 나타나, 대두 발효 추출물(FSBE)에 비하여 약 2배 이상의 높은 페놀 함량을 나타내었다. FYAE의 총 단백질과 총 당 함량은 각각 $0.56{\pm}0.11\;mg/g$$2.41{\pm}0.48\;mg/g$이었으며 FYBA는 각각 $0.39{\pm}0.12\;mg/g$$2.72{\pm}0.63\;mg/g$으로 나타나, FYAE가 FSBE보다 각각 4.7배와 1.7배 높은 총 단백질과 총 당 함량을 지닌 것으로 나타났다. DPPH radical 소거능은 FBAE가 1 mg/ml에서 79 %로 가장 높게 나타났으며 2배 높은 활성을 나타내었다. 환원력은 FBAE가 1 mg/ml의 농도에서 가장 높은 환원력을 나타내었으며 FSBE에 비해 2배 높은 활성을 보였다. 지질 과산화능은 1 mg/ml일 때 FBAE는 93%로 FSBE의 약 3배 높은 활성을 나타내었고 FYAE 또한 80%로 2.5배 높은 활성을 보였다. 과산화 수소에 대한 소거능은 1 mg/ml 농도에서는 FBAE가 82%로 FSBE에 비해 4배 높은 효과를 나타내고 FYAE의 경우 2.5배 높은 효과를 나타낸다. 이상의 연구 결과에서, 기능성 콩인 아가콩 발효물의 혈전용해 활성과 항산화 효능은 일반 콩에 높게 나타났으며 이는 앞으로 새로운 천연 기능성 식품으로서의 이용 가능성을 시사하고 있다.

  • 본 연구에서는 콩 발효 산물 추출물의 항염증 효능에 관한 기초 자료를 제시하기 위하여 PMA에 의해 유도되는 COX-2의 발현 및 $PGE_2$의 생성 증가에 미치는 이들 추출물의 영향을 조사하였다. 본 연구에서 조사된 3가지 콩 발효 산물은 PMA에 의한 COX-2의 발현 증가를 매우 유의적으로 차단하였으며, 이는 $PGE_2$의 생성 억제와 연관성이 있었다. 아울러 PMA에 의한 NF-${\kappa}B$ 활성 증가 또한 콩 발효 산물들에 의하여 유의적으로 억제되었다. 이러한 결과들은 콩 발효 산물에 의한 NF-${\kappa}B$ 활성의 억제가 COX-2의 발현을 저하시켰으며, 이로 인한 $PGE_2$의 생성이 억제된 것으로 추정되어진다. 이러한 콩 발효 산물의 항염증 효과는 대두 추출물보다 아가콩 추출물에서 더욱 효과가 높게 나타났으며, 이는 향후 아가콩 추출물은 염증성 질환 예방/치료를 위한 적용 가능성이 매우 우수함을 제시하여 주는 결과이다.

  • Recently, the growth of applications and services over high-speed Internet increases, ATM networks as wide area back-bone has been a major solution. As the conventional TCP/IP suite is still the standard protocol used to support upper application on current. Internet, the issues regarding whether TCP/IP will operate efficiently on top of an ATM infrastructure and how to control its QoS still remain for studies. TCP uses a window-based protocol for flow control in the transport layer. When TCP uses the UBR service in ATM layer, the control method is only buffer management. If a cell is discarded in ATM layer, one whole packet of TCP will be lost; this fact occur the most TCP performance degradation. Several dropping strategies, such as Tail Drop, EPD, PPD, SPD, FBA, have been proposed to improve the TCP performance over ATM. In this paper, to improve the TCP performance, we propose a packet dropping scheme that is based on comparison with EPD, SPD and FBA. Our proposed scheme is applied to schemes discussed in the previous technology. Our proposed scheme does not need to know each connection's mean packet size. When the buffer exceeds the given threshold, it is based on comparison between the number of dropped packet and the approved packet. Our results are reported and discussed for comparing these discarding schemes under similar conditions. Although the number of virtual channel (VC) is increased, the simulation results showed that the proposed scheme can allocate more fairly each VC than other scheme.

  • 오늘날 공공기관이나 은행 등 각종 범죄 예방 및 보안을 요하는 곳에서는 손쉽게 감시카메라를 발견할 수 있다. 이런 감시용 카메라는 각종 범죄를 예방하고 범죄사건을 해결하는데 결정적인 단서를 제공해 주는 중요한 역할을 한다. 하지만 멀리 떨어져 있는 사람을 촬영하였을 경우, 그 사람이 누구인지 확인하기 위해서는 원영상을 확대하여야만 하는데 영상을 확대하는 기법은 단순히 영상을 키우는 것이 중요한 것이 아니라 원영상과 가깝게 양질로 확대복원하는 것이 중요하다. 이처럼 영상의 확대복원을 위해서 보간법을 사용하는데 지금까지 나와 있는 보간법으로는 확대 배율이 크면 클수록 식별이 불가능할 정도로 영상품질이 많이 떨어지게 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 MPEG-4 SNHC FBA 그룹에서 표준화한 FDP(Face Definition Parameter)를 이용하여 얼굴영상의 얼굴윤곽을 벡터화하여 복원하므로써 기존의 보간법으로 복원된 영상보다도 더 좋은 품질로 복원할 수 있는 새로운 알고리즘을 제안한다.
