Objective : A retrograde clinical study was undertaken to determine the effect of opening lamina terminalis on the development of hydrocephalus after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH). We compared the incidence ratios of the development of hydrocephalus with and without opening lamina terminalis during operation after aneurysmal SAH. Patients and Methods : From Oct. 1996 to Sep. 1998, we performed 138 aneurysm surgery for 122 patients. In 98 cases, the lamina terminalis was opened to make direct cerebrospinal fluid flow from the third ventricle to subarachnoid space for prevention of delayed hydrocephalus. We compared the incidence of hydrocephalus after opening lamina terminalis to those without opened lamina terminalis. Results : In 95 cases, the hydrocephalus was noticed in 2 cases(2.2%). It is significantly lower in the group with opening lamina terminalis than the group without opening lamina terminalis(about 10%). Conclusion : It is simple and easy procedure to open the lamina terminalis during aneurysm surgery. With this maneuver, we could reduce the incidence of hydrocephalus after aneurysmal spontaneous SAH. Thus, it is considered that the opening lamina terminalis is one of the effective methods for preventing the development of hydrocephalus after aneurysmal spontaneous SAH.

This study was conducted to compare the volatile components of lamina(cutter group) and midrib of flue-cured tobacco leaves by two analytical methods, Curie-Point pyrolysis and Purge & Trap headspace technique. The pyrolysis of lamina and midrib part of tobacco leaves was performed at the temperature of $330^{\circ}C$, $650^{\circ}C$, and $920^{\circ}C$ by Curie-Point Pyrolyzer, and 33 compounds were identified in the pyrolyzates by GC/MSD. The composition of the components identified showed a quite difference between lamina and midrib. However, the amount of the pyrolyzed products from the both of lamina and midrib was increased with temperature increase except that of acetic acid, furfural, and nicotine. The content of phenolic compounds including phenol, 4-methyl phenol, and 3-methyl phenol was higher in midrib than in lamina, while that of furan compounds such as 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran, 5-hydroxymethyl furfural, was high in lamina. Interestingly, acetamide, 2-propenamide and 3-acetoxy pyridine were not defected in the pyrolyzates of lamina. By Purge & Trap headspace technique, 28 volatile components were identified in both lamina and midrib. The composition of the identified compounds and their chromatograpic patterns also showed the complete difference between the two. The content of solanone, $\beta$-damascone, $\beta$-damascenone, and megastigmatrienones, key components of tobacco aroma, was much higher in lamina than in midrib. The results indicate that lamina contains much more carbonyl compounds known to enhance the smoke taste of cigarette, whereas midrib takes nitrogenous and phenolic compounds, which are known to cause a deteriorate effect of smoke such as irritation.

Volatile aroma components, non-volatile organic acids in lamina and stems of flue-cured(NC 2326) and burley ( Burley 21) were analyzed by gas chromatography and mass spectrometry, respectively. Then compositional differences of these components between lamina and stems were discussed. The contents of volatile components were higher in flue-cured than in burley tobacco, and it was also higher in lamina then in stem. The major aroma components in lamina were neophytadiene , nicotine, solanone and benzyl alcohol but those in stems were palmitic acid, neophytadiene, nicotine, solanone and phenyl ethyl acetate. On the other hand, the contents of non-volatile organic acids were higher in burley than in flue-cured tobacco, and these values of burley tobacco were higher in lamina than in stem but flue-cured tobacco were higher in stem than in lamina. The major acids in all the above four tabacco samples were malic, citric, oxalic and linolenic acid.

The goal of this study was to predict lamina yield from logs of different diameter for production of cross laminated timber. Log characteristics of red pine (Pinus densiflora) and Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica), including diameter, length, volume, and defects were used for statistical and geometrical analyses, along with the lamina characteristics, including width, thickness, and defects. Based on the data obtained, the strong factors influencing the yield and grade of lamina from the two species were statistically evaluated. A geometrical approach was used for analysis of the yield from logs of given diameters. Statistical analysis showed that lamina yield was dependent on target lamina size but the grade of lamina was not related to any of the log characteristics. The suggested yield equations from the geometrical approach indicated an accuracy of less than 20% difference.

The shade avoidance syndrome is a morphological and physiological response when plants are exposed to shade. Recent work in Arabidopsis had begun to define the molecular components of the shade avoidance syndrome in dicotyledonous model plant. However, little is known about the shade avoidance response networks in agriculturally important monocotyledon crops such as rice. Here, we found that the degree of bending at the lamina joint is inversely proportional to the R:FR ratio. To elucidate which phytochrome is involved in this response, we did lamina joint inclination assay with the rice phytochrome-deficient mutants (osphyA, osphyB, and osphyC) and the wild type plants. Whereas the osphyA and osphyC knockout mutants bent at the lamina joint in the far-red rich condition as the wild type plants, the osphyB knockout mutants no longer bent at the lamina joint in the far-red rich condition. These results suggest that PHYB acts as a sole photoreceptor in the lamina joint inclination response in rice.

The purpose of this study was to investigate a method for improving the physical and mechanical properties of laminated board made from oil palm trunk (OPT). The effects of pretreating the lamina with heat-pressure and altering the lamina composition of the laminated board were investigated. The outer third of OPT in cross-section had high-density wood, while the underlying third had low to medium density. The hot press was applied to pretreat the lamina that had low to medium density. The lamina were 1.5 cm in thickness, 5 cm in width, and 65 cm in length. The hot press was applied at 2.94 MPa or 4.41 MPa at 150 ℃ for 60 minutes, and the target thickness of the lamina was 1 cm. The three layers of the laminated board samples were bonded with isocyanate adhesive at a glue spread of 300 g/㎡ and cold pressed at 0.98 MPa for 3 h. The laminated board samples were tested according to Japanese Agricultural Standard (JAS) 234-2003. The results showed that the densification of the inner lamina did not significantly affect the physical-mechanical properties of the laminated board produced. However, the laminated board made with high-density laminas for the outer layers fulfilled the JAS 234-2003 standard for the modulus of elasticity and the modulus of rupture.

This study was conducted to determine the changes of nitrogen compounds in lamina and midrib during the curing process with the different curing methods, such as priming and stalk-cut curing. After KB 108 burley tobacco was cultivated by the different fetilization levels such as standard and 20% higher, only the tips and leaf were harvested. Though the contents of total alkaloid and total nitrogen were similar in lamina, midrib showed a very low contents of those components by the different curing method and fertilization levels. The content of nitrate-nitrogen in lamina increased during a middle of curing process, and then these compound was decreased during an end of curing process by stalk-cut curing method. Nitrate-nitrogen contents in the lamina by the priming curing showed a high level caused by rapid drying process during an end of curing process. That component in midrib was 5-6 times higher than that of lamina. The contents of ammonia-nitrogen in the lamina and midrib were increased during a curing process. Though those amount in tips showed a similar by a different fetilization and curing method, midrib of stalk-cut curing showed a slow increasing during a curing process.

A small diameter steel-ball impact experiment was performed to study the impact resistance of the surface of glass plates bonded with glass fabric/epoxy lamina. Five kinds of materials were used in this study: soda-lime glass plates, glass/epoxy lamina(one layer)-bonded and unbonded glass plates, glass/epoxy lamina(three layers)-bonded and unbonded glass plates. The range of impact velocity was 40 120m/s. The maximum stress and absorbed fracture energy were measured on the back surface of glass plates. With increasing impact velocity, various types of surface cracks such as ring, cone, radial and lateral cracks took place in the interior near the impacted site of glass plates. The cracks drastically decreased with glass/epoxy lamina coating. The surface fracture behavior could be evaluated using the maximum stress and the absorbed fracture energy.

The present paper was designed to investigate the effect of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium on the histological differentiation of the young leaves of soybean (Glycinemax, M.). Observations were made on the numbers of lamina cells and lateral veins, width and thickeness of the lamina and vascularization of the midrib in the 5th leaf, and the differentiation of leaves at 42$\mu$ from the apical tips of the shoot apecis. Samples were taken at the time when the 2nd leaf was completed. The experimental plots were divided into twelve parts. And the results obtained are as follows. 1) Nitrogen stimulated the differentiation of the leaf, the vascuralization of the midrib and increased the numbers of lamina cells and lateral veins. 2) Phosphorus promoted the differentiation of lamina at the first stage of soybean growth. It was more effective in the plots of excessive application than otherwise. It had a small effect on the differentiation of lateral veins. 3) Among the elements, a deficiency of postassium resulted in a reduced differentiation of the lamina potassium had no effect on the thickening growth of the lamina and the differentiation of the midrib. 4) It appeared that phosphorus might compensate for the negative effect of potassium in the potassium and phosphorus plots.

Morphological difference of the renal glomerulus at different age groups have been studies in one week-old, five weeks-old, eight weeks-old, six months-old, twelve months-old, eighteen months-old, twenty-four months-old, and thirty months-old ICR mice. Pieces of the tissue taken from the renal corticies were fixed in 2.5% glutaraldehyde-1.5% paraformaldehyde solution (0.1 Millonig's phosphate buffer pH 7.3), and 1% osmium tetroxide solution (0.1 M Millonig's phosphate buffer, pH 7.3), and were embedded in araldite mixture. The ultrathin sections were stained with uranyl acetate and lead citrate solution, and were observed under a JEM 100CX-II electron microscope. The results were as follows: 1 In the one week-old mouse, thicknesses of the three layers of the glomeluar basal lamina (lamina densa, lamina rara interna and lamina rara externa) are similar, but in the five weeks-old mouse, thick lamina densa becomes a greater portion of the thickness of whole glomerular basal lamina. 2. No difference was noticed between thickness of the renal glomerular basal lamina of the five weeks-old mouse compare with that of the one week-old one, but basal lamina of the eight weeks-old one is thickened considerably and thicknesses were maintained through twelve months-old one. After eighteen months, the thickness of the glomerular basal lamina is increased remarkably. 3. After eighteen months, electron dense deposits within the basal lamina of the renal glomeruli are observed frequently. 4. Amount of the microfilaments in the mesangial cells and the mesangial matrices are increasing during aging. 5. The thicknesses of the basal laminae of the Bowman's capsule are increasing during aging. 6. After twenty four months, the proximal tubular cell-like parietal cells with well developed microvilli are observed frequently. From the above results, it was suggested that the renal glomerulus matures structurally in five weeks, and the function of the glomerulus is suppressed after eighteen months.
