Background: Complete blood count (CBC) results play an important role in peripheral blood smear (PBS) examinations. Many descriptions in PBS reports may simply be translated from CBC parameters. We developed a computer program that automatically generates a PBS draft report based on CBC parameters and age- and sex-matched reference ranges. Methods: The Java programming language was used to develop a computer program that supports a graphical user interface. Four hematology analyzers from three different laboratories were tested: Sysmex XE-5000 (Sysmex, Kobe, Japan), Sysmex XN-9000 (Sysmex), DxH800 (Beckman Coulter, Brea, CA, USA), and ADVIA 2120i (Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics, Eschborn, Germany). Input data files containing 862 CBC results were generated from hematology analyzers, middlewares, or laboratory information systems. The draft reports were compared with the content of input data files. Results: We developed a computer program that reads CBC results from a data file and automatically writes a draft PBS report. Age- and sex-matched reference ranges can be automatically applied. After examining PBS, users can modify the draft report based on microscopic findings. Recommendations such as suggestions for further evaluations are also provided based on morphological findings, and they can be modified by users. The program was compatible with all four hematology analyzers tested. Conclusions: Our program is expected to reduce the time required to manually incorporate CBC results into PBS reports. Systematic inclusion of CBC results could help improve the reliability and sensitivity of PBS examinations.

The electrochemical performances of anode composites comprising elemental silicon (Si), silicon monoxide (SiO), and graphite (C) were investigated. The composite devoid of elemental silicon (SiO:C = 1:1) and its carbon coated composite showed reduced capacity degradation with measured values of 606 and 584 mAh/g at the fiftieth cycle. The capacity retention nature when the composites were cycled followed the order of Si:SiO:C = 3:1:4 < Si:SiO:C = 2:2:4 < SiO:C = 1:1 < SiO:C = 1:1 (carbon coated). A comparison of the capacity retention properties for the composites in terms of the silicon content showed that a reduced silicon content increased the stability of the composite electrodes. Even though the carbon-coated composite delivered low capacity during cycling compared to the other composites, its low capacity degradation made the anode a better choice for lithium ion batteries.

Forest ecosystems generate variety of important goods and services for human well-being. As a growing concern of climate change and water shortage, it is necessary to quantify, model and map water balance in forest. In this study, we have analyzed 11 overseas forest water supply models (AIM, ATEAM, CENTURY, (E)SWAT, GUMBO, InVEST, PLM, SAVANNA, WaSSI, WaterGAP, WBM) and compared their scale, input and out data, availability of the models and analyzed the applicability of the models to Korea. As a result, InVEST and WaterGAP model appeared to be applicable for quantifying water provisioning services in Korea. A systematic approach for applying to evaluate water balance in forest was suggested based on our quantification approach.

Cinnamomi Cortex (Lauraceae), the dried bark of Cinnamomum cassia BLUME, has been used as traditional Chinese medicine for its stomachic, astringent, carminative, antispasmodic, antibacterial, antifungal properties. Four compounds were isolated from the MeOH extract of Cinnamomi Cortex, and their structures were identified as trans-cinnamic acid (1), ${\beta}-sitosterol$ (2), bis(2-methylheptyl)phthalate (3), coumarin (4) by comparison of their physical and spectral data with those reported in the literature. These compounds were tested melanogenesis inhibitory effect on B-16 mouse melanoma cell lines. Among them, trans-cinnamic acid (1) showed the most potent inhibitory effect on melanogenesis with $IC_{50}$ value of $13{\mu}g/ml$. Arbutin, positive control, exhibited an $IC_{50}$ value of $29{\mu}g/ml$.

The antioxidant activities of sesame cake extracts prepared using ethanol and hot water were evaluated. Seventy percent-ethanol extracts yielded the highest total phenolic (96.56 mg/g extract) and flavonoid (8.35 mg/g extract) contents. In the ${\beta}$-carotene bleaching and ferric thiocyanate test, 30%-, 50%-, and 70%-ethanol extracts exhibited higher antioxidant activity than that exhibited by 90%-ethanol extracts. However, 90%-ethanol extracts showed greater antioxidant activities in phenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl free radical scavenging test and thiobarbituric acid test using corn oil. The antioxidant activities of sesame cake extracts did not correlate with the total phenolic and flavonoid contents; however, the results suggest that oxidative stability may be improved by sesame cake extracts.

Respiration is induced by muscular contraction of the chest and abdomen, resulting in the abdominal volume change. Thus, continuous measurement of the abdominal dimension enables to monitor breathing activity. Conductive rubber cord has been previously introduced and tested to develop wearable application for respiratory measurements. This study implemented respiratory monitoring system with the conductive rubber cord in the patient's pants in purpose of quantitative estimation of tidal volume. Air mixed with $0{\sim}5%$ $CO_2$ was inhaled and the respiratory air flow rate, abdominal dimension change, and end tidal $CO_2$ concentration were simultaneously measured in steady state. $CO_2$ inhalation significantly increased the tidal volume in normal physiological state with the subject unawared. The tidal volume estimated from the abdominal dimension change linearly correlated with the tidal volume measured by a pneumotachometer with a correlation coefficient of 0.88. Customized calibration for each subject resulted in relative errors less than 10%. Therefore, the tidal volume was accurately estimated by measuring the abdominal dimension change.

외국인 유학생과 국내 체류 외국인을 포함하여 한국어를 학습하고자 하는 외국인이 지속적으로 증가함에 따라, 외국인 한국어 학습자의 교육에 대한 관심도 높아지고 있다. 기존 맞춤법 검사기는 한국어를 충분히 이해할 수 있는 한국인의 사용에 중점을 두고 있어, 외국인 한국어 학습자가 사용하기에는 다소 부적절하다. 본 논문에서는 한국어의 문맥 특성과 외국인의 작문 특성을 반영한 한국어 교정 방식을 제안한다. 제안하는 시스템에서는 말뭉치에서 추출한 어절 바이그램에 대한 음절 역색인을 구성하여 추천 표현을 빠르게 제시할 수 있으며, 키보드 후킹에 기반한 사용자인터페이스를 제공하여 사용자 편의를 높인다.

Leaves are an important organism for photosynthesis and transpiration. The shape of leaf is crucial factor affecting plant architecture. V-shape leaf rolling is enhancing canopy photosynthesis by increasing the CO₂ penetration and the light capture by reducing the shadow between the leaves. Therefore, moderate leaf rolling is thought to more high grain yield per area than flat leaf. We investigated 278 KRICE_CORE accession's Adaxial Leaf Rolling Index (LRI) in first heading using the following equation. For each accession, genomic DNA was used for sequencing. We sequenced the genomics with ~8 X coverage to detect SNPS. Raw reads were aligned against the rice reference (IRGSP 1.0) for SNP identification and genotype calling. To generate genotype data for GWAS, SNPs were filtered with minor allele frequency 0.05. Finally, 841,134 high-quality SNPs were used for our GWAS. The significant threshold was -log10(P)>7.23. From the results, 2 significance SNP were detected. Considering the LD block of 250kbp, 60 candidate gene were selected including Hypothetical gene and Conserved gene. In this poster, we analyzed candidate gene affecting adaxial Leaf Rolling through single-trait GWAS.

환경오염으로 인한 문제는 매년 발생하고 있다. 그러나 환경오염의 심각성을 인식하고 있는 비율에 비해 환경보호 실천보다 생활의 편리함이 더 중요하다고 생각하는 비율이 높으며, 올바른 환경보호 지식을 습득하고 있는 수가 적다. 유년기, 청소년기에 초중고교에서의 교육을 통해 올바른 환경 지식을 습득하고 환경을 보전하려는 태도를 갖추는 것이 중요한데, 환경 교과목을 채택한 교육기관의 수는 14.1%로 절반도 채 되지 않는다. 본 논문은 가상공간 내에서 올바른 분리수거 방법을 습득하고, 학습자가 이를 실생활에 적용하기 용이한 게임기반의 체험형 VR 환경교육 콘텐츠를 제시하고자 한다.
