Objective : This study aimed to investigate the effect of a 5-minute short mindfulness intervention on emotional regulation and cognitive improvement compared to self-awareness intervention. Methods : A total of 40 participants were randomly assigned and divided into a mindfulness group and a self-aware group. Participants responded to Korean Version of Positive Affect and Negative Affect Schedule (K-PANAS), and Korean version of Toronto Mindfulness Scale (K-TMS) to confirm prior homogeneity. Both groups performed processing according to each group after completing sentences related to themselves for self-focusing. Afterwards, the participants performed the Emotional Attentional Blink (EAB) task as a behavioral measure, and responded to K-PANAS and K-TMS post hoc. Results : The mindfulness group showed lower negative emotions in the K-PANAS than the self-awareness group. The mindfulness group showed higher accuracy than the self-awareness group in negative stimuli presented in the 200 ms condition and neutral stimuli presented in the 800 ms condition. However, there was no difference between groups in K-TMS. Conclusion : The study suggests that mindfulness and self-awareness have different emotion regulation strategies in negative stimuli. Additionally, 5-minute mindfulness intervention was relatively beneficial to improve cognitive function.

I think this will be valuable reference for assuring consistency and homogeneity of clarity and managing dental radiation equipment by experimentation of dental radiation equipment permanent which based on KS C IEC 61223-3-4 standard and KS C IEC 61223-2-7. Put a dental radiation generator and experiment equipment as source and film(sensor) length within 30 em, place the step-wedge above the film(sensor). Tie up tube voltage 60 kVp, tube current 7 mA and then get an each image through CCD sensor and film by changing the exposure time as 0.12sec, 0.25sec, 0.4sec. Repeat the test 5times as a same method. Measure the concentration of each stage of film image, which gained by experiment, using photometer. And the image that gained by CCD sensor, analyze the pixel value's change by using image J, which is analyzing image program provided by NIH(National Institutes of Health). In case of film, while 0.12sec and 0.25sec show regular rising pattern of density gap as exposure time's increase, 0.4sec shows low rather than 0.12sec and 0.25sec. In case of CCD sensor density test, the result shows opposite pattern of film. This makes me think that pixels of CCD's sensor can have 0~255 value but it becomes saturation if the value is over 255. The way that getting clear reception during decreasing human's exposed radiation is one of maintaining an equipment as a best condition. So we should keeping a dental radiation equipment's condition steadily through cyclic permanent test after factor examination. Even digital equipment doesn't maintain a permanent, it can maintain a clarity by post processing of image so that hard to set it as standard of permanent test. Therefore it would be more increase the accuracy that compare a film as standard image. Thus I consider it will be an important measurement to care for dental radiation equipment and warrant homogeneity, consistency of dental image's clarity through comparing pattern which is the result from factor test against cyclic permanent test.

액화석유가스(Liquefied Petroleum Gas)는 Propane(C₃H₈)과 Butane(C₄H₁₀)을 주성분으로 한 가스를 액화한 것으로 구분된다. LPG는 혼합 성분에 따라 품질의 차이가 커 성분 함량을 정확하게 측정하는 것이 중요하다. 이와 같은 물질은 혼합물의 성분별로 상온에서는 액체와 기체가 같이 공존해 정확한 측정이 까다롭다. 따라서 탄화수소의 성분별 농도의 측정 불확도가 높아 실제 함량 기준과 많은 차이가 발생하는 문제점을 안고 있다. 그러므로 탄화수소 물질의 조성과 정확한 농도 측정을 위해 혼합 액체 프로판 표준가스의 개발이 필요하였다. 혼합 액체 프로판 표준가스는 ISO-6142(2015)의 중량법으로 벨로즈형 정압실린더에 제조되었다. 제조한 4병의 표준가스에서 균질성이 GC-FID로 확인되었다. 제조 상대확장불확도는 0.01 % - 0.30 %, 균질성은 0.03 % - 0.25 %이었다. 이 혼합 액체 프로판 표준가스에서 중량법, 제조 일치성, 실린더 흡착 여부 및 장기 안정성에 대한 상대확장불확도는 0.26 % - 1.39 %(신뢰도 약 95 %, k=2)이내로 개발되었다.

목 적 : 폐암의 정위 절제 방사선 치료(Stereotactic Ablative Radiation Therapy, SABR)시 복부압박을 이용한 치료계획과 양압지속유지기(The Continuous Positive Air Pressure, CPAP)를 이용한 치료계획을 비교, 분석하여 방사선 치료 효과 향상에 기여하고자 한다. 대상 및 방법 : 본원의 폐의 SABR 환자 중 2명을 대상으로 복부 압박 고정 장치(the Body Pro-Lok, BPL)와 CPAP를 이용한 치료 계획을 수립하여, RTOG 0813에서 제안한 parameter들과 균질도(Homogeneity Index, HI), 일치도(Conformity Index, CI)를 통해 치료계획을 분석하였다. 또한 모든 4D CT에서 각 Phase별 계획용 표적 체적(Planning Target Volume, PTV) 중심의 X, Y, Z축 움직임을 분석하고, PTV와 손상위험장기(Organ At Risk, OAR)의 체적과 평균 선량을 구하여 비교하였다. 그리고 4개의 원뿔형빔 전산화단층촬영(Cone Beam Computed Tomography, CBCT)을 이용하여, PTV 중심점과 0°, 90°, 180°, 270° 중 세 방향에서의 흉강내 접점까지의 직선거리를 측정하고, 각 방향에서 평균거리 값과의 차이를 비교하였다. 결 과 : BPL과 CPAP를 사용하여 얻은 치료계획은 모두 RTOG의 권고값을 따랐으며, 균질도와 일치도에서도 큰 차이가 없었다. PTV 중심의 X축, Y축, Z축 움직임은 A 환자의 경우 BPL 사용시 0.49 cm, 0.37 cm, 1.66 cm, CPAP 사용시 0.16 cm, 0.12 cm, 0.19 cm을 보였고, B 환자의 경우 BPL 사용시 0.22 cm, 0.18 cm, 1.03 cm, CPAP 사용시 0.14 cm, 0.11 cm, 0.4 cm을 보였다. CPAP 사용시 BPL 사용시보다 A 환자의 경우 ITV가 46.27% 감소하였고 좌측 폐의 체적이 41.94% 증가하였으며, 평균선량은 심장에서 52.81% 감소하였다. B 환자의 경우 좌측 폐 106.89%, 우측 폐 87.32% 체적이 증가하였고, 평균선량은 위에서 44.30% 감소하였다. 각 방향의 직선거리 값과 평균거리 값과의 최대 차이는 A 환자의 경우 a방향에서 0.05 cm, b방향에서 0.05 cm, c방향에서 0.41 cm 났고, B 환자의 경우 d방향에서 0.19 cm, e방향에서 0.49 cm, f방향에서 0.06 cm 차이가 났다. 결 론 : CPAP 사용시 폐용적의 증가를 통해 표적 근처 OAR의 선량을 BPL 사용시보다 더 효과적으로 감소시킬 수 있으며, 호흡에 따른 종양의 움직임 제한에도 더 효과적으로 기여할 수 있다는 것을 확인하였다. 추후 CPAP의 다양한 부위 적용과 다른 치료기와의 결합을 통해 방사선 치료 효과를 개선시킬 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

We reported that amorphous silicon (a-Si) thin film provide sample plate exhibiting a multimodality to measure biomolecules by secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) and laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (LDI-MS). Kim et al.1 reported that a-Si thin film were suitable to detect small molecules such as drugs and peptides by SIMS and LDI-MS. Recently, bacterial identification has been required in many fields such as food analysis, veterinary science, ecology, agriculture, and so on.2 Mass spectrometry is emerging for identifying and profiling microbiology samples from its advantageous characters of label-free and shot-time analysis. Five species of bacteria - S. aureus, G. glutamicum, B. kurstaki, B. sphaericus, and B. licheniformis - were sampled for MS analysis without lipid extraction in sample preparation steps. The samples were loaded onto the a-Si thin film with a thickness of 100 nm which did not only considered laser-beam penetration but also surface homogeneity. Mass spectra were recorded in both positive and negative ionization modes for more analytical information. High reproducibility and sensitivity of mass spectra were demonstrated in a mass range up to mass-to-charge ratio(m/z) 1200 by applying the a-Si thin film in mentioned above MS. Principle component analysis (PCA) - a popular statistical analysis widely used in data processing was employed to differentiate between five bacterial species. The PCA results verified that each bacterial species were readily distinguished and differentiated effectively from our MS approach. It shows a new opportunity to rapid bacterial profiling and identification in clinical microbiology. More details will be discussed in the presentation.

Objective: To systematically review previous studies and to assess, via a subgroup meta-analysis, the combined odds ratio (OR) of prognostic factors affecting the success of miniscrew implants (MIs) inserted into the buccal posterior region. Methods: Three electronic searches that were limited to articles on clinical human studies using MIs that were published in English prior to March 2015 were conducted. The outcome measure was the success of MIs. Patient factors included age, sex, and jaw of insertion (maxilla vs. mandible), while the MI factors included length and diameter. A meta-analysis was performed on 17 individual studies. The quality of each study was assessed for non-randomized studies and quantified using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. The meta-analysis outcome was a combined OR. Subgroup and sensitivity analyses based on the study design, study quality, and sample size of miniscrews implanted were performed. Results: Significantly higher success rates were revealed for MIs inserted in the maxilla, for patients ${\geq}20$ years of age, and for long MIs (${\geq}8mm$) and MIs with a large diameter (> 1.4 mm). All subgroups acquired homogeneity, and the combined OR of the prospective studies (OR, 3.67; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.10-6.44) was significantly higher in the maxilla than that in the retrospective studies (OR, 2.10; 95% CI, 1.60-2.74). Conclusions: When a treatment plan is made, these risk factors, i.e. jaw of insertion, age, MI length, and MI diameter, should be taken into account, while sex is not critical to the success of MIs.

Objectives The Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) is one of the most widely used self-report measures of depression in both research and clinical practice. The Beck Depression Inventory Second Edition (BDI-II) is the most recent version of the BDI. Validity of the BDI-II has been documented in other countries. This study examined the factor structure of the Korean version of BDI-II in a large sample of university students. Method Data were obtained from 2,529 students of Kongju National University. The factor structures of the Korean version of BDI-II were assessed using exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. Results A high level of internal consistency and reliability (Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ = 0.91) and item homogeneity was confirmed. Exploratory factor analysis showed a two-factor structure (cognitive and somatic-affective), which was almost identical to the original model demonstrated by Beck et al. The following confirmatory factor analysis also supported the two-factor structure (cognitive and somatic-affective) is a better fit than the other two-factor structure (cognitive-affective and somatic). The higher mean score for women compared to men is consistent with the results of previous reports. Conclusion These data support the reliability and concurrent validity of the Korean version of BDI-II as a measure of depressive symptoms in nonclinical samples.

Approximating a divergence between two probability distributions from their samples is a fundamental challenge in statistics, information theory, and machine learning. A divergence approximator can be used for various purposes, such as two-sample homogeneity testing, change-point detection, and class-balance estimation. Furthermore, an approximator of a divergence between the joint distribution and the product of marginals can be used for independence testing, which has a wide range of applications, including feature selection and extraction, clustering, object matching, independent component analysis, and causal direction estimation. In this paper, we review recent advances in divergence approximation. Our emphasis is that directly approximating the divergence without estimating probability distributions is more sensible than a naive two-step approach of first estimating probability distributions and then approximating the divergence. Furthermore, despite the overwhelming popularity of the Kullback-Leibler divergence as a divergence measure, we argue that alternatives such as the Pearson divergence, the relative Pearson divergence, and the $L^2$-distance are more useful in practice because of their computationally efficient approximability, high numerical stability, and superior robustness against outliers.
