In this study, using data completed in the 11th year of the Panel Study on Korean Children, discourse management, situational adjustment and application ability, communication intention, and non-verbal communication were investigated by the child pragmatic language checklist tool in the field of cognitive and language development. It is to find a significant influence by analyzing the relationship between the factors of the observed variables on the latent variables of communication. The subject of this study is 4th grade elementary school students in 1,392 households, excluding 36 non-respondents to the language development question, out of 2150 households in the 11th year of the Panel Study on Korean Children(2018) data, 1428 households excluding 722 households who did not participate in the survey. As a result of the study, it was found that the total effect, direct effect, and indirect effect among the three latent variables except for communication intention were all significant in the effect analysis of the research model. Specifically, not only did nonverbal communication have a direct effect on discourse management ability, but also the indirect influence mediated by situational control and application ability was significant in the relationship between nonverbal communication and discourse management ability. As a result, it was found that the higher the non-verbal communication and situational adjustment and adaptation ability, the higher the discourse management ability.

This systematic review was performed to investigate relationship between sarcopenia and cognitive function among community-dwelling older adults. Studies which reported prevalence rates of sarcopenia in community-dwelling older adults, relationships between sarcopenia and cognitive dysfunction, or effective interventions in alleviated symptoms of sarcopenia were selected. Of 43 studies reviewed, prevalence rate of sarcopenia ranged from 2.5-42.4% in 25 studies, and 4 studies revealed a significantly positive correlation between sarcopenia and cognitive dysfunction. Among 12 randomized-control trials (RCTs), exercise intervention was used in 2 studies; nutrition intervention in 6; and 4 studies included both the exercise and nutrition interventions. All interventional studies reported positive effects on muscle mass, muscle strength, or physical function. However, only 6 studies met the high quality criteria of Risk of Bias, and there was no study which evaluated cognitive function as an outcome measure. Therefore, this study draws attention to the lack of high-quality RCTs and exclusion of cognitive function as an outcome measure in the research of sarcopenia. A comprehensive and sustained system including standardized sarcopenia screening, assessments of cognitive functioning, and evidence-based intervention programs is needed in order to prevent and manage sarcopenia amongst older adults in the community.

This study was carried out to determine the effect of enzymatically saccharified Korean rice wine lees powder (eKRWLP) on the quality characteristics and storage stability of curd yogurt. Yogurt with different contents [0.5-2.0% (w/w)] of eKRWLP was incubated with commercially available mixed lactic acid bacteria (Lactobacillus acidophilus, Streptococcus thermophilus, Bifidobacterium longum) at $40^{\circ}C$ for 18 h. The production of acid measured at pH and titratable acidity of yogurts increased with increasing eKRWLP content. After 12 h fermentation, titratable acidity of eKRWLP yogurt was 0.77-0.90% and was higher than that (0.72%) of yogurt made without eKRWLP. The viable cell counts of lactic acid bacteria in eKRWLP yogurts were increased in proportion to the addition of eKRWLP, and increased up to 8.01-8.13 log CFU/g after 12 h incubation. The repressive effect of whey separation in eKRWLP yogurt curd significantly decreased than that in Korean rice wine lees powder (KRWLP) yogurt. With sensory evaluation, yogurt with 0.5% eKRWLP obtained the highest scores among all eKRWLP yogurts. When eKRWLP yogurts and the control preparations fermented for 12 h were incubated at $4^{\circ}C$, their pHs and titratable acidities were slightly changed and the number of viable lactic acid bacteria were well maintained above $10^7CFU/g$ for 16 days.

Swallowing impairment is a frequent complication following stroke. The characteristics of swallowing impairment with stork patient can facilitate identification of individuals at risk of dysphagia would be of great helpful. The present study examined oropharyngeal swallowing impairment with subacute stroke patients using the Modified Barium Swallowing Impairment Profile(MBSImP). The 49 consecutive patients with the supratentorial stroke met inclusion criteria for the present study. A retrospective review was performed of patients who underwent the videofluoroscopic swallowing study(VFSS). Of Stroke patients, 95.9% exhibited abnormal function of lip closure. 98% and 57.1 % shown abnormal tongue function and lingual motion, respectively. Oral residue was present in 51% and delayed pharyngeal response was present in 89.9%. In addition, abnormal laryngeal and hyoid excursion was seen in 42.9% and 87.8%, respectively. Abnormal function of soft palate elevation was present in 18.4% and abnormal epiglottic movement was seen in 4.1%. 30.6% of 30.6% of these patients exhibited abnormal laryngeal closure. All of the stroke patients(100%) in this study exhibited abnormal pharyngeal stripping wave and pharyngoesophageal segment opening. Abnormal tongue base retraction and oral reside were present 91.8%, respectively. The results suggest that stroke patient is more likely to exhibit reduced swallowing functions including lip closure, tongue control, initiation of pharyngeal swallow, anterior hyoid motion, tongue base retraction, pharyngeal residue and pharyngoesophageal contraction. Therefore, these data could provide valid and precise information regarding physiological evidence to delineate symptoms of dysphagia in this stroke cohort. Future studies should explore the bolus effect in the swallowing impairment.

Cyanazine is a member of the triazine family of herbicides. Cyanazine is used as a pre- and post-emergence herbicide for the control of annual grasses and broadleaf weeds. This experiment was conducted to establish a determination method for cyanazine, as domestic unregistered pesticide, residue in major agricultural commodities using HPLC-DAD/MS. Cyanazine was extracted with acetone from representative samples of five raw products which comprised apple, green pepper, Kimchi cabbage, hulled rice and soybean. The extract was diluted with saline water and partitioned to dichloromethane for remove polar extractive in the aqueous phase. For the hulled rice and soybean samples, n-hexane/acetonitrile partition was additionally employed to remove non-polar lipids. The extract was finally purified by optimized florisil column chromatography. On a $C_{18}$ column in HPLC, cyanazine was successfully separated from co-extractives of sample, and sensitively quantitated by diode array detection at 220 nm. Accuracy and precision of the proposed method was validated by the recovery experiment on every major agricultural commodity samples fortified with cyanazine at 3 concentration levels per agricultural commodity in each triplication. Mean recoveries were ranged from 83.6 to 93.3% in five major representative agricultural commodities. The coefficients of variation were all less than 10%, irrespective of sample types and fortification levels. Limit of quantitation(LOQ) of cyanazine was 0.02 mg/kg as verified by the recovery experiment. A confirmatory method using LC/MS with selected-ion monitoring(SIM) technique was also provided to clearly identify the suspected residue.

층실사초는 경북 북부를 포함한 강원도 지역의 습기있는 음지에서 자생한다. 여러해살이풀로서 주료 사료용으로 사용되며 지피식물 등 정원소재로도 사용된다. 본 연구는 층실사초의 대량증식을 위해 가장 효과적인 파종 시기를 구명하고자 수행하였다. 종자의 최적 발아조건을 찾기 위해 배양상 온도조건을 항온조건(30, 25, 20, 15, $5^{\circ}C$)과 변온조건(15/30, 20/10, $25/15^{\circ}C$) 총 8가지 조건으로 설정하여 발아율을 매일 측정하였다. 광조건은 형광등을 이용한 명조건과 암조건을 매일 12시간씩 반복하였다. 실험결과, 항온조건에서 발아율은 $25^{\circ}C$에서 $36{\pm}6.3%$로 가장 높게 나타났고, $20^{\circ}C$ ($27{\pm}4.4%$), $30^{\circ}C$ ($24{\pm}1.6%$) 순으로 나타났으며, $15^{\circ}C$, $5^{\circ}C$에서는 발아하지 않았다. 한편, 변온조건에서의 발아율은 $25/15^{\circ}C$에서 $22{\pm}7.3%$, $15/30^{\circ}C$에서 $10{\pm}2.5%$ 발아하였고, $20/10^{\circ}C$에서는 발아하지 않았다. 따라서 층실사초 종자의 발아최적온도는 $25^{\circ}C$이고 변온보다 항온이 유리했으며, 이 이상의 온도에서는 오히려 발아율이 낮아지는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 가장 효과적인 파종 시기를 추정할 때, 낮 기온 $25^{\circ}C$의 초여름에 실시하되, 밤 기온이 너무 내려가지 않도록 조절해준다면 보다 높은 발아율을 기대할 수 있을 것으로 여겨진다. 그러나 본 연구결과, 최고 발아율이 $36{\pm}6.3%$로 비교적 낮기 때문에 발아율 향상을 위한 추가적인 실험이 필요할 것이다.

In the present study, practical measures were to be presented for prevention of smartphone game addiction and school violence by analysis of the effects aspect of the smartphone game addition by elementary school students on school violence awareness. For this purpose, a questionnaire survey was conducted for the subject of 6th graders attending an elementary school located in K city of Jeollanam-do, and a total of 258 copies were utilized as the final analysis data. Considering the analysis results, significant differences in the smartphone game addition were observed first as a function of the elementary school students' sex and game use time. The level of smartphone game addiction was observed to become higher for male students than female students, and the higher the longer the game use time during a day. Secondly, a positive (+) correlation was observed to exist between the smartphone game addiction and the school violence awareness. Thirdly, the variable affecting the school violence awareness among individual sub-variables for the smartphone game addiction was shown to be a problem with loss of control and power of reality test. The higher the addiction level of each variable, the negative tendency for school violence awareness was shown to be increased. Based on such analysis results, policy-wise, practical suggestions as well as directions for the follow-up studies have been presented for the improvement of smartphone game addiction and school violence awareness.
