최근 서울, 부산, 울산 등에서 도시 돌발홍수가 빈번히 발생하고 있고 이에 따른 인명 손실 및 재산 피해가 빠르게 증가하고 있다. 그러나 집중 호우의 대부분은 저고도 대기에서 생성 및 발달되며, 소멸까지의 시간은 2-3 시간에 불과하여 기존의 우리나라 수문기상 관측시스템은 이러한 유형의 강우량 예측에 많은 어려움을 겪고 있는 실정이다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 기상, 재난 관련 정부 기관들이 저고도 수문기상 관측을 위한 도시형 X-밴드 레이더 네트워크 구축을 계획하고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 그보다 선행하여 돌발성 수문기상 재해연구를 위해 한국건설기술연구원에서 도입한 X-band 이중 편파 레이더 시스템을 이용하여 보다 간단하고 정확한 재난 감시 및 예경보 시스템을 개발하는데 있다. 본 연구에서는 X-밴드 레이더 데이터로부터 추정된 정량적 강수량을 모니터링 하여 도시 지역의 돌발홍수를 자동으로 경고하는 방법을 제안한다. 또한 Google 어스 플랫폼을 사용하여 정확한 3D QPE-GIS 매칭 기법을 개발함으로써, 심각한 수문기상 현상이 발생하는 정확한 위치를 추적하고 직관적인 경보서비스를 가능케 한다. 본 연구에서 제안하는 경보시스템은 레이더 데이터 분석도구, 위험결정 도구 및 위험경고 표시 도구의 세 가지 기술로 구성된다. 제안된 돌발홍수 경보시스템은, 시뮬레이션을 통해 X-밴드 레이더 데이터로부터 정량적 강수량이 계산되며, GIS 상에서 레이더 반사도 및 강우강도가 3차원 이미지 형태로 표시된다. 그런 다음 Google 어스에서 3D 큐브 블록으로 대표되는 강수량이 동시에 누적표출 되도록 설계되었다. 또한 분석된 X-밴드 레이더 데이터로부터 지역별 누적 강수량을 업데이트 및 모니터링하고 기 설정된 돌발홍수 발생 한계치(trigger)에 도달하면 홍수경보 메시지를 표시한다. 향후, 제안된 경보시스템에 대한 기술적 도구를 개선하면서 대규모 수문기상 레이더 네트워크로 광범위한 강우를 모니터링하면 전국적인 돌발홍수 경보시스템으로 확대가 가능하다.

The combined products of antacids(AM) composed of aluminium hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, and simethicone with a ratio of 1 : 1 : 0.1 and aceglutamide aluminium(AGA) were assayed for the antiulcer activity. The effect of the antacids(AM) in concurrent treatment with AGA was studied in acute gastric lesion induced by Shay's method, stress, ethanol, and indomethacin, in chronic gastric ulcers induced by acetic acid, and in duodenal ulcer induced by mepirizole. In all experimental models, the combined treatment of AM and AGA in the ratio of 2.3:1 showed significant potentiation in inhibition against acute gastric and duodenal ulcer and revealed a significant potentiation of the healing of chronic gastric ulcer.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect reducing blood pressure (BP) using Xuefuzhuyu Decoction (XFZYD) in adults with essential hypertension (EH). Method: Search engine, such as PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane library, Web of Science, J-STAGE, CiNii, CNKI, OASIS, NDSL, KISS, RISS, and DBpia, were used. The search period was from the beginning of the search engine to June 30, 2018 and there were no limits regarding languages. The selection and extraction of literatures were performed independently by two authors. Meta-analysis was done on the total effective rate (TER), Systolic BP (SBP) and Diastolic BP (DBP). Cochrane's risk of bias (ROB) was used as the methodological quality assessment scale. Results: Twenty studies were finally selected. We observed that a combination treatment using XFZYD and an antihypertensive drug (AHD) was 5.1 times more effective in lowering BP than using AHD alone on TER. The mean differences in SBP and DBP were -10.65 mmHg (95% Confidential Interval (CI) -13.55 mmHg, -7.74 mmHg, P<0.00001), -5.92 mmHg (95% CI -7.14, -4.38, P<0.00001), respectively. Conclusion: A combination treatment using XFZYD and AHD may be more effective in reducing BP than using AHD alone. Because of the poor methodological quality of the studies conducted thus far, high-quality clinical trials will be required in the future.

Solar magnetograms are important for studying solar activity and predicting space weather disturbances1. Farside magnetograms can be constructed from local helioseismology without any farside data2-4, but their quality is lower than that of typical frontside magnetograms. Here we generate farside solar magnetograms from STEREO/Extreme UltraViolet Imager (EUVI) $304-{\AA}$ images using a deep learning model based on conditional generative adversarial networks (cGANs). We train the model using pairs of Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO)/Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) $304-{\AA}$ images and SDO/Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) magnetograms taken from 2011 to 2017 except for September and October each year. We evaluate the model by comparing pairs of SDO/HMI magnetograms and cGAN-generated magnetograms in September and October. Our method successfully generates frontside solar magnetograms from SDO/AIA $304-{\AA}$ images and these are similar to those of the SDO/HMI, with Hale-patterned active regions being well replicated. Thus we can monitor the temporal evolution of magnetic fields from the farside to the frontside of the Sun using SDO/HMI and farside magnetograms generated by our model when farside extreme-ultraviolet data are available. This study presents an application of image-to-image translation based on cGANs to scientific data.

For conventional gravity type offshore structures constructed on the soft ground, which is located on the western and/or southern Korea, the excessive consolidation settlements are caused by the self-weight of the structures and so additional ground treatment methods are generally needed. Several types of improved foundation systems utilizing buoyancy applicable to even the soft ground were introduced for economical and efficient design of the offshore structure. In this study, a series of numerical simulations on the consolidation and lateral behaviors of breakwaters with the improved foundation systems utilizing buoyancy were carried out. From the results of numerical simulations it is found that the foundation systems utilizing buoyancy are efficient for reducing the maximum consolidation settlements without reducing lateral safety.

Background: Sperm quality and the number of sperm introduced into the uterus during artificial insemination (AI) are pivotal factors influencing pregnancy outcomes. However, there have been no reports on the relationship between sperm concentration at AI and sperm quality in Hanwoo cattle. In this study, we examined sperm quality and pregnancy rates after AI using sperm inseminated at different concentrations. Methods: We evaluated the motility, viability, and acrosomal membrane integrity of sperm at different concentrations (10, 15, 18, and 20 million sperm/straw) in 0.5-mL straws. Subsequently, we compared the pregnancy rates after AI with different sperm concentrations. Results: After freeze-thawing, sperm at the assessed concentrations showed similar viability and acrosomal membrane integrity. After AI, cattle in the 10 million group had significantly lower pregnancy rates compared to those in the 18 and 20 million groups. Conversely, there were no statistically significant variances observed between cattle in the 10 and 15 million groups. Conclusions: Sperm at concentrations of 10, 15, 18 and 20 million per straw exhibited comparable motility, viability, and acrosomal membrane integrity. However, a concentration of at least 18 million sperm per straw is required to achieve a consistent rate of pregnancy rate in Hanwoo cattle after AI.

Hypertension is one of the most common chronic diseases and it causes cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease. While antihypertensive drug use increased, it took 15% of national health insurance drug expenditure. This study aimed to examine the pattern of antihypertensive drug prescription using National Health Insurance claims database and compare it with recommendations of Korea Hypertension Treatment Guidelines. Among the antihypertensive drugs, calcium channel blocker(64.4%) was most commonly prescribed class, and diuretics(44.6%), angiotensin II receptor blocker(33.3%), angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor(11.7%) was followed. Approximately 81% of antihypertensives prescription were without cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disease, and among the comorbid conditions, diabetes(10.7%) was most common. calcium channel blocker(62.3%) was mostly prescribed class for hypertension with angina pectoris, angiotensin receptor blocker(45.3%) with myocardial infarction, diuretics(70.2%) and calcium channel blocker(49.5%) with congestive heart failure. For Hypertension with cerebrovascular disease, calcium channel blocker(68.0%) and angiotensin receptor blocker(43.3%) were prescribed mainly. When it comes to diabetes, calcium channel blocker(57.2%) was still mostly prescribed and angiotensin receptor blocker(45.9%) followed. But in hospitals and tertiary hospitals, angiotensin receptor blocker(65.7, 66.1%) was mostly prescribed for the patients with diabetes. For Hypertension with chronic renal disease, angiotensin receptor blocker(59.5%), calcium channel blocker(56.5%), diuretics(54.6%) were mainly used. Average number of classes per prescribing was $1.89{\pm}0.89$ class, average days per prescribing was $33{\pm}19$ day. Among the hypertension without comorbidity, 40.5% of prescription was monotherapy and 58.8% of polytherapy included diuretics. Among the outpatient prescriptions, calcium channel blocker was the most commonly used class, and the prescription pattern in clinic did not closely followed recommendations of Hypertension Treatment Guidelines.
