A new type of horizontal submerged break water or fixed structure to control waves near coastal area is introduced to focus wave energy before or behind it. Intentionally, the water depth near the structure is changed gradually to get a refraction and diffraction effect. The concentration of wave energy due to the structure was analyzed for the selected design of structure. The shape of the submerged structure in consideration is a circular combined with elliptical curve not to cause reflection of waves at the extreme edge of the structure but cause wave scattering. The direction of the structure against the incident wave is changed easily in the model Applying a regular wave train the following were examined. 1) whether a crescent plain submerged structure designed by the wave refraction theory can concentrate wave energy at a focal zone behind and before it without wave breaking phenomenon. 2) Location of maximum wave amplification factor in terms of the incident wave direction, wave period, etc. In any event the study would contribute to control waves near coastal area and to protect a beach from erosion without interruption of ocean view it is an useful study for the concentration of wave energy efficiently with the increase of wave height.

Using the Kalman filtering technique, we propose a novel method for estimating the missing video frames to monitor the activities inside the control room of a nuclear power plant (NPP). The purpose of this study is to reinforce the existing security and safety procedures in the control room of an NPP. The NPP control room serves as the nervous system of the plant, with instrumentation and control systems used to monitor and control critical plant parameters. Because the safety and security of the NPP control room are critical, it must be monitored closely by security cameras in order to assess and reduce the onset of any incidents and accidents that could adversely impact the safety of the NPP. However, for a variety of technical and administrative reasons, continuous monitoring may be interrupted. Because of the interruption, one or more frames of the video may be distorted or missing, making it difficult to identify the activity during this time period. This could endanger overall safety. The demonstrated Kalman filter model estimates the value of the missing frame pixel-by-pixel using information from the frame that occurred in the video sequence before it and the frame that will occur in the video sequence after it. The results of the experiment provide evidence of the effectiveness of the algorithm.

Patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) generally demonstrate the asymmetries in the lip, nose and the naso-maxillary complex. And their skeletal asymmetries are known to be derived from the displacement of nasal septum, anterior nasal spine (ANS) and the pre-maxilla toward the non-affected side during the developmental and growth period. Due to the interruption of the important facial muscles, which are critical for the symmetric growth of premaxilla, functional matrix system fails to develop and results in the displacement of the ANS toward the non-affected side and nasal asymmetry. Therefore the rhinoplasty for CLP patients is required to have inter-skeletal and muscular rearrangement in the naso-maxillary complex in order to let them recover from esthetic and physiologic imbalances. And functional cheilorhinoplasty (FCR) has been a representative treatment of choice for this concept of treatment modality. The outcome and prognosis of primary or repair FCR have been known to be definitely affected by timing of the operation as well as adequate reconstruction of naso-labial muscles. However, sometimes FCR has an ineffective treatment results for patients after the facial growth period, and the limited rhinoplasty around the nose often fails to bring satisfying results. In order to circumvent this limitation, we performed ANS osteotomy for patients with unilateral CLP showing asymmetric nose, as an alternative way for corrective rhinoplasty. We could observe that the nose was rearranged along the facial mid-line by this osteotomy design and asymmetries were evidently improved postoperatively. Here we present this osteotomy method in CLP patients.

The organized community is the one of the best system for the effective public health administration, and a model area was selected for the study to see what would be achieved when a certain small community is placed under the special public health control based on the family unit. The 178 families involved total of 875 populations. The rate of vaccination with B.C.G. among 191 infants and children could be increased upto 100.0% from 72.5% of the time when the basic study was performed after 8 months period of this study; 99.0% from 47.1% with D.P.T.; 96,9% from 71.7% against smallpox; 83.2% from 69.1% against poliomyelitis; but only 25,7% from 21.5% against measles. The status of family planing was 36.8% among 155 women of possible conception at the time of the basic research. And, at the end of this study, the number of women utilizing one of the methods of contraception for family planning were increased upto 52.9% among the same number. The most frequently utilized method was 34.1% of oral pills followed by 30.5% of intrauterine device; but both of which had higher rate of interruption of use because of the complications, 14.3% and 16.0% respectively. The 10 pregnant women at the time of basic research experienced normal deliveries during the period of study and they had received pre and postnatal health care through this health center. The status of oral hygiene, pulmonary tuberculosis control, and parasitological examination were also reported as well as the cases with diseases seen among the population and vaccinations performed against other infectious diseases. The stress on discussion was placed upon the effectiveness of public health administration when it is undergone on the individual family unit to achieve the best results. However, the shortness of both personnel and material resources were considered to be the one of the major difficulties retarding the generalization of the idea obtained through this study based on family unit public health administration.

이 연구는 야파 처리 시간대가 살비아 'Salsa'의 영양생장 및 개화에 미치는 영향을 조사하고, 저광도 야파 처리가 광합성을 증가시킬 수 있는지 알아보고자 수행되었다. 살비아는 9시간의 단일조건 또는 9시간 일장에 $3-5{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$의 광도의 야파를 추가한 조건의 식물 생육상에서 재배되었고, 야파 처리는 18시-22시(NI18), 22시-02시(NI22), 02시-06시(NI02)의 세 구간으로 나누어 적용되었다. NI18, NI22, NI02 처리구에서 광합성은 야파 처리 시간 동안에 각각 0.33, 0.16, $0.13{\mu}mol{\cdot}CO_2{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$만큼 증가하였다. 하지만 엽폭, 엽장 등의 영양생장은 단일 조건하의 식물들과 유의성 있는 차이를 나타내지 못하였다. 야파 처리 시 개화까지 걸리는 시간은 9.8일 단축되었고, 17주간 야파 처리 시 꽃의 수는 단일 조건의 36.4개에 비해 NI02 처리구에서 138.7개로 증가하였다. 이러한 결과는 02시부터 06시까지의 야파 처리가 개화를 촉진하는 데에 가장 효과적이라는 것을 보여준다. 그러나 야파 처리 시간 동안에 증가한 광합성량은 살비아의 영양생장 증가에는 효과를 보이지 못하였다. 비록 야파 처리 동안의 미미한 광합성의 증가가 살비아의 영양생장을 증가시키지는 못하였지만, 개화에는 크게 영향을 미쳤다. 단일 조건에서는 44.4%만이 개화하였지만 8주간 야파 처리시 NI18, NI22, NI02 처리구에서는 각각 77.8, 88.9, 100.0% 개화하였다.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of panoramic radiological risk signs related with mandibular third molar extraction, and the relationship between these risk signs and inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) injury after tooth extraction. Cases were defined as 1000 mandibular third molars extracted by surgical approach at Samsung Medical Center during the period from March 2001 to December 2006. Seven radiological risk signs were assessed on the panoramic radiogram by three expert oral surgeons. Clinical demographic data and severity of IAN injury were examined on medical records. Bivariate analyses were completed to assess the relationship between radiological risk signs and IAN injury. The radiological risk signs showed in 381 cases(38.1%). The incidence of each radiological risk signs were; interruption of IAN white line, 152 cases(15.2%); deflected roots, 141 cases(14.1%); darkening root, 119 cases(11.9%); diversion of IAN, 57 cases(5.7%) ; IAN narrowing, 37 cases(3.7%); root narrowing, 17 cases(1.7%); dark and bifid apex, 10 cases(1.0%). The incidence of IAN injury in cases with risk signs were: in the case of any sign, 3.6%; interruption of IAN white line, 2.6%; deflected roots 5.7%; darkening root. 3.4%; diversion of IAN, 5.7%; IAN narrowing, 3.7%; root narrowing, 5.9%; dark and bifid apex, 0%. No IAN injury was showed in 619 cases without risk sign (p<0.05). In conclusion, the presence of panoramic risk signs was associated with an increased risk for IAN injury during mandibular third molar extraction, whereas the absence of risk signs was associated with a minimal risk of nerve injury.

목적 : 국소적으로 진행된 직장암의 방사선치료에 있어 전통적인 치료방법으로 알려져 있는 근치적 수술 및 보조 방사선 및 항암치료의 성적을 알아보고 이에 영향을 미치는 예후 인자를 알아보기 위함이다. 대상 및 방법 : 1989년 7월 부터 1993년 12월 까지 항문상방 15 cm 이내에 존재하는 직장암으로 진단받고 근치적 수술을 받은 71명의 환자를 대상으로 후향적 분석을 시행하였다. 방사선치료는 6 MeV 선형가속기를 사용하여 주5회씩 5040 cGy 까지 조사되였고 수술후 21일에서 94일 사이에 시작되었고 5-FU와 ACNU chemotherapy가 4주 간격으로 시행되었다. 결과 : 전체환자의 5년 생존율과 5년 무병생존율은 각각 58.8$\%$및 57$\%$였다. 대상환자들의 2년 국소제어율은 76.6$\%$였다. 생존기간 및 무병생존기간의 중앙값은 각각 30개월 및 27개월이었다. 단변량 및 다변량분석시 무병생존율에 의미있게 예후인자로 작용했던 요인은 국소림프절로의 전이여부, 4개 이상의 임파선 전이, 6주이상의 수술과 방사선치료 시작 사이의 간격 및 7일 이상 지속되는 방사선치료 도중의 휴식기간 등이었다. 결론 : 국소적으로 진행된 직장암의 경우 근치적 수술 및 방사선치료 및 5-FU/ACNU를 기본으로 한 항암제를 시행하였을 때 B3 이상의 병기에서는 아직도 생존율이 저조하며 bowel wall penetration이 있거나 국소 림프절전이가 있을 때는 국소제어율도 환자의 절반 정도에서 밖에 얻을 수 없을 뿐만이 아니라 림프절전이가 없는 경우라도 원격전이율이 치료실패의 많은 부분을 차지함을 알 수 있었다. 이는 좀더 효과적인 항암치료제의 선택과 투여 방법이 방사선치료와 병행될 필요가 있음을 시사하며 수술 후 보조적인 방사선치료를 시행함에 있어서 방사선치료가 시작되는 기간이 지연될 때, 또 방사선치료가 7일 이상 중단될 때 치료결과에 영향을 줄 수 있음을 보여준다. 직장선암의 경우 수술과 방사선치료시작까지의 기간이 필요이상으로 연장되거나 치료중 휴식기간이 생겨 전체치료기간이 길어지지 않게 하여야 할 것이다.

The design of reinforced concrete structures strongly depends on the value of the compression concrete strength used for the structural components. Given the uncertainties involved on the materials quality provided by concrete manufacturers, in the construction stage, these components may be either over or under-reinforced respect to the nominal condition. If the structure is under reinforced, and the deficit on safety level is not as large to require the structure demolition, someone should assume the consequences, and pay for the under standard condition by means of a penalty. If the structure is over reinforced, and other failure modes are not induced, the builder may receive a bonus, as a consequence of the higher, although unrequested, building resistance. The change on the building safety level is even more critical when the structure is under a seismic environment. In this research, a reliability-based criteria, including the consideration of expected losses, is proposed for bonification/penalization, when there are moderated differences between the supplied and specified reinforced concrete strength for the buildings. The formulation is applied to two hypothetical, with regular structural type, 3 and 10 levels reinforced concrete buildings, located on the soft soil zone of Mexico City. They were designed under the current Mexican code regulations, and their responses for typical spectral pseudoaccelerations, combined with their respective occurrence probabilities, are used to calculate the building failure probability. The results are aimed at providing objective basis to start a negotiation towards a satisfactory agreement between the involved parts. The main contribution resides on the explicit consideration of potential losses, including the building and contents losses and the business interruption due to the reconstruction period.

Pressure sores are an ulceration and necrosis of the skin and underlying tissue usually occur after prolonged or repeated pressure by interruption of blood flow from the small. vessels to the skin and deep tissue. The management of pressure sores is mostly difficult and requires prolonged hospitalization or repeated surgical interventions with a high recurrence rate. In this article we reviewed 14 cases of National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Pannel staging III, IV over the lateral malleolar area of the ankle in 2 years period from January 1999 to October 2001. The pressure over lateral malleolar area was mainly due to unique Korean sitting position with cross legs at flexed hips and knees or supine position of patient with external rotation of low extremity. Male to female ratio was 11: 3 and ages were between 36 and 83 (mean age: 67.1 years). Associated diseases were DM(7 cases), Hemiparesis caused by CVA(2 cases), Liver cirrhosis(2 cases), disarticulation of opposite hip due to squamous cell ca.(1 case), Intertrochanteric Fx.(1 case). Wound cultures reported Staphylococus, Pseudomonas and others. Abnormally elevated ESR and CRP were seen in 6 cases. Operative treatments were irrigation and debridement, direct closure with gravity drainage and skin grafting. The most important aspect of pressure sore treatment is pressure relief of the lateral malleolar area. Pressure-relieving Cast or Brace was helpful for local management and preventing recurrence.
