Purpose: This study is to evaluate the clinical findings of media] meniscus root tear, pull-out repair technique and it's short term results. Materials and Methods: From September 2003 to August 2004, 23 cases of total 27 medial meniscus root tears were treated by pull-out repair technique. Mean age was 60.2 years old. The pull-out technique was divided into 2 groups In group 1(14/23 cases), anterolateral portal was used and in group 2(9/23 cases), anterolateral and posteromedial portals were used for bed preparation. Concomitant cartilage lesions were documented as ICRS mapping system. The clinical outcomes were evaluated according to Lysholm Knee Score. Results: The postoperative Lysholm Knee Score was 77.1(range; $58{\sim}97$) in group 1 and 81.4(range; $72{\sim}94$) (p>0.05). The failure rate was 3 of 14 cases(21.4%) in group 1 and 1 of 9 cases(11.1%) in group 2. Twenty of 22 cases(90.9%) showed cartilage lesions in weight bearing portion of medial femoral condyle which were 8 grade III and 5 grade IV according to the Outerbridge classification. Conclusion: Pull-out repair seems to be a useful treatment of the medial meniscus root tear for preservation of circumferential hoop tension of meniscus.

Object-based classification methods provide a valid alternative to traditional pixel-based methods. This study reports the results of an object-based classification to examine land cover in the demilitarized zones(DMZs) of Inje-gun. We used land cover classes(7 classes for main category and 13 classes for sub-category) selected from the criteria by Korea Ministry of Environment. The average and standard deviation of the spectrum values, and homogeneity of GLCM were chosen to map land cover types in an hierarchical approach using the nearest neighborhood method. We then identified the distributional characteristics of land cover by considering 3 topographic characteristics (altitude, slope gradient, distance from the Southern Limited Line(SLL)) within the DMZs. The results showed that scale 72, shape 0.2, color 0.8, compactness 0.5 and smoothness 0.5 were the optimum weight values while scale, shape and color were most influenced parameters in image segmentation. The forests (92%) were main land cover type in the DMZs; the grassland(5%), the urban area (2%) and the forests (broadleaf forest: 44%, mixed forest: 42%, coniferous forest: 6%) also occupied mostly in land cover classes for sub-category. The results also showed that facilities and roads had higher density within 2 km from the SLL, while paddy, field and bare land were distributed largely outside 6 km from the SLL. In addition, there was apparent distinction in land cover by topographic characteristics. The forest had higher density at above altitude 600m and above slope gradient $30^{\circ}$ while agriculture, bare land and grass land were distributed mainly at below altitude 600m and below slope gradient $30^{\circ}$.

In this study, the field investigation was carried out in an area damaged by flood, which recently occurred in Chungcheong region, in order to establish a disaster safety village in a rural area. In addition, the history and characteristics of a village in Garisan-ri, Inje-gun, Gangwon-do that experienced loss of life and property caused by flood in 2006 were analyzed through monitoring. The village was restored and has been operated as a disaster prevention experience village for the purpose of disaster prevention, and its structural and non-structural status was monitored during the analysis. Based on the results, application measures for establishing a disaster safety village in a rural area in future were examined. At the time of restoring food damage, the residents' participation was actively reflected in the process of establishing the disaster prevention experience village in Garisan-ri. The village has been currently operated until now as an example of disaster safety village in rural regions, and various activities including training and educational programs are carried out in order to reinforce the disaster prevention capability of residents. The findings of this study can be used for establishing a disaster safety village in a rural area based on such characteristics.

Machine learning and artificial intelligence are core technologies for the 4th industrial revolution. However, it is difficult for the general public to get familiar with those technologies because most people lack programming ability. Thus, we developed a Graphic User Interface(GUI) to overcome this obstacle. We adopted TensorFlow and used .Net of Microsoft for the develop. With this new GUI, users can manage data, apply algorithms, and run machine learning without coding ability. We hope that this development will be used as a basis for developing artificial intelligence in various fields.

Farmers seek for high profitability by increasing the best use of land, and the selection of crops is the first and basic way to achieve their goals. When farmers select crops, the climate, price and productivity of crops are usually considered at the first stage. However, a crucial factor is to understand general characteristics of soils where the crops were grown, but many farmers are lacking in detailed knowledge about soils. The purpose of this study is to search and analyses factors based upon related soil and others in decision-making for the selection of crops. In result, the cultivated rate of the top 5 corps in the suitable areas for cultivation (SAC) is only 53 % which shows most farmers are plants their crops in unsuitable sites. To examine factors influencing on the selection of crops except for soils, surveys about their farm characteristic and Korea Soil Information System (KSIS) were conducted. The result of survey shows 20 % of farmers know KSIS. To increase that rate, there were many changes on soil's characteristic, and at the same time, climate conditions should be updated. It can be expected to increase the rate of farmers' utilization of KSIS.

In order to find out the frequencies of symptoms and the relations between the symptoms and working hours, the numbers of spraying pesticides authors investigated 145 farmers(96 male, 49 female persons) from 6 Myon's of 3 Gun's in Kyeongnam Province. The results were as follows; 1. The most frequent farming years were 1-5 years, fruits were the most common, and working hours were over 9 hours in 41.4%. The commonly used pesticides were insecticides, herbicides, herbicides in order. Only 52.4% of the farmers used masks, and 69.0% bathed after spraying pesticides. 2. The most common symptoms being complained were sweating, lumbago, shoulder pain, dizziness, headache, fatigue, decreased vision, weight loss, dyspnea and nausea in order. 3. Dizziness was more common in younger ages and decreased vision was more common in elder ages. Dyspnea and shoulder pain were more common in female farmers. 4. The more longer the working hours, the more complained indigestion, lumbago, shoulder pain and nausea. The more faster came into vinyl-house after spraying pesticides, the more common fatigue and dizziness. 5. The farmers who sprayed more pesticides complained headache, dyspnea, weight loss. 6. Vinyl house workers who worked more than 7 hours complained headache, nausea, decreased vision, lumbago more frequently than who worked less than 6 hours. 7. The farmers who entered in 1-2 hours after spraying pesticides complained fatigue more frequently than those entered after 3 hours. 8. Vinyl house workers without using masks complained dizziness and dyspnea more commonly than those using masks. But headache was more common among those using masks contrary to expectation.

In areas around Deoksan Li and Deokjeon Li, Inje Eup, Inje Gun, located between $38^{\circ}2^{\prime}55^{{\prime}{\prime}}N$ and $38^{\circ}5^{\prime}50^{{\prime}{\prime}}N$ in latitude and $128^{\circ}11^{\prime}20^{{\prime}{\prime}}E$ and $128^{\circ}18^{\prime}20^{{\prime}{\prime}}E$ in longitude, large-sized avalanche disasters occurred due to Typhoon Ewiniar in 2006. As a result, 29 people were dead or missing, along with a total of 37.25 billion won of financial loss(Gangwon Province, 2006). To evaluate such landslide and debris flow risk areas and their vulnerability, this study applied a technique called 'Weight of Evidence' based on GIS. Especially based on the overlay analysis of aerial images before the occurrence of landslides and debris flows in 2005 and after 2006, this study extracted 475 damage-occurrence areas in a shape of point, and established a DB by using such factors as topography, hydrologic, soil and forest physiognomy through GIS. For the prediction diagram of debris flow and landslide risk areas, this study calculated W+ and W-, the weighted values of each factor of Weight Evidence, while overlaying the weighted values of factors. Besides, the diagram showed about 76% in prediction accuracy, and it was also found to have a relatively high correlationship with the areas where such natural disasters actually occurred.

During an investigation on intestinal flukes of house rats in Yangyang-gun, Kangwon-do, a total of 6 species of trematodes belonging to 3 families; Echinostom-atidae (Echinostoma hortense, E. cinetorchis, E. revolutum and Echinoparyphium recurvatum), Diplostomidae (Fibricoza seoulensis) and Plagiorchiidae (Plagiorchis muris), were recovered from two adult rats. E. revolutum and E. recurvatum were new trematode faunae of rats in Korea. 5. revolutum had an elongated body, 5.3∼6.Omm long and 1.0∼1.3mm wide. The total number of collar spines was 35∼37 including 5 end group ones on each ventral corner. Its coiled uterus contained numerous eggs.5. recurvatum also had an elongated body, 3.5∼4.7 mm long and 0.50∼0.65 mm wide. It had total 45 collar spines including 4 end group ones. The uterus toras short with only a few eggs. It has been first confirmed by this study that E. revolutum and E. recurvatum are indigenously distributed among house rats in Korea.
