  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the electromyographic (EMG) activity of the abdominal muscles and to compare the activity ratios of the bilateral rectus abdominis (RA) to oblique abdominal muscles during shoulder abduction in opposite directions with single leg raising (SLR) performed in the supine position on a foam roller. Methods: Fifteen healthy subjects were recruited to the study. Each subject lay on the foam roller and performed left single leg raising with right or left shoulder $90^{\circ}$ abduction (Abd); performed in a random order. Surface EMG recordings of selected abdominal muscles (i.e., the RA, external oblique abdominis [EO], internal oblique abdominis [IO], and transverse abdominis [TrA]) were normalized to maximum voluntary isometric contraction. EO/RA and IO and TrA/RA ratios were determined with surface EMG. Data were analyzed by Independent t-test. The statistical significance level was p<0.05. Results: The results were as follows: (1) the right RA, left EO, and right IO and TrA muscle activities increased significantly at the left SLR with left Abd compared to the left SLR with right Abd (p<0.05); and (2) the ratio of right EO/RA activity increased significantly at the left SLR with right Abd compared to left Abd (p<0.05). Conclusion: These findings suggest that left SLR with left Abd on a foam roller is an appropriate exercise for activation of specific oblique abdominal muscles.

  • Objectives: The pulse diagnosis to identify the symptoms has been considered important in Korean medicine. The position and character of disease would be confirmed by pulse diagnosis of left and right radial artery. This paper is to analyze the characteristics and differences of left and right blood vessels. Methods: In this study, left and right radial artery and dorsalis pedis artery was measured and analyzed by using condenser typed pulse analyzer. Commercially available pulse analyzer was used to measure the radial artery. The pulse wave was measured in 20 laboratory healthy men and women. The blood vessel aging degree and index of augmentation of blood vessel was obtained from the measured pulse wave graph and the characteristics and differences of the left and right blood vessel was analyzed. Results: The significant difference of pulse transit time between the right handed and non-right handed was not found. The correlation of radial artery and dorsalis pedis artery had no significant difference. By obtaining the blood vessel aging index (AGI) and augmentation index (AI) of blood vessel at the left and right radial artery, the significant difference between right handed and non-right handed was not found. Conclusions: The result of this study would help to explain the characteristic of blood vessel with respect to the left and right handed. We suggest that research of pulse wave of the left and right blood vessel using pulse analyzer should be needed in further study.

  • Using the Lukasiewicz 3-valued implication operator, the notion of an (${\alpha},{\beta}$)-intuitionistic fuzzy left (right) $h$-ideal of a hemiring is introduced, where ${\alpha},{\beta}{\in}\{{\in},q,{\in}{\wedge}q,{\in}{\vee}q\}$. We define intuitionistic fuzzy left (right) $h$-ideal with thresholds ($s,t$) of a hemiring R and investigate their various properties. We characterize intuitionistic fuzzy left (right) $h$-ideal with thresholds ($s,t$) and (${\alpha},{\beta}$)-intuitionistic fuzzy left (right) $h$-ideal of a hemiring R by its level sets. We establish that an intuitionistic fuzzy set A of a hemiring R is a (${\in},{\in}$) (or (${\in},{\in}{\vee}q$) or (${\in}{\wedge}q,{\in}$)-intuitionistic fuzzy left (right) $h$-ideal of R if and only if A is an intuitionistic fuzzy left (right) $h$-ideal with thresholds (0, 1) (or (0, 0.5) or (0.5, 1)) of R respectively. It is also shown that A is a (${\in},{\in}$) (or (${\in},{\in}{\vee}q$) or (${\in}{\wedge}q,{\in}$))-intuitionistic fuzzy left (right) $h$-ideal if and only if for any $p{\in}$ (0, 1] (or $p{\in}$ (0, 0.5] or $p{\in}$ (0.5, 1] ), $A_p$ is a fuzzy left (right) $h$-ideal. Finally, we prove that an intuitionistic fuzzy set A of a hemiring R is an intuitionistic fuzzy left (right) $h$-ideal with thresholds ($s,t$) of R if and only if for any $p{\in}(s,t]$, the cut set $A_p$ is a fuzzy left (right) $h$-ideal of R.

  • This paper proposed receding methods for a radix-${\gamma}$ representation of the secret scalar which are resistant to SPA. Unlike existing receding method, these receding methods are left-to-right so they can be interleaved with a left-to-right scalar multiplication, removing the need to store both the scalar and its receding. Hence, these left-to-right methods are suitable for implementing on memory limited devices such as smart cards and sensor nodes

  • The purpose of this study was to analyze the weight transfer patterns under the different golf swing types which are full swing control swing and putting stroke. Two women golfers participated in this study, one(165cm, 94.3kg)being classified as a low-handicap(LH)player, the other(165cm, 54.5kg) being classified as a high-handicap(HH) player. Both players are right-handed. Two force plates(Kistler, 9286AA) were synchronized with a motion capture system(Qualisys ProReflex MCU240). Anteriorposterior, mediolateral, and vertical forces were used as an indicator of the pattern of swing. Four discrete positions which are address, top of backswing impact, and finish were identified as an event and three phases which are backswing downswing, and follow-through between he events were also identified. The results showed that, at impact, the total force was 1.24BW ring the full swing 1.17BW during the control stroke, 1.00BW during the putting stroke. Depending on the golf swing types, the differences are existed. At impact, the distribution of forces is different with a low-handicap(LH) player and a high-handicap(HH) player. A LH player has 26% in right foot and 74% in left foot during the full swing 49% in right foot and 51% in left foot during the control swing 49% in right foot and 51% in left foot during the putting stroke. A HH, on the other hand, has 74% in right foot and 26% in left foot during the full swing 62% in right foot and 38% in left foot during the control swing 54% in right foot and 46% in left foot during the putting stroke. From address to top of backswing the amount of vertical forces are changed 43:57(right foot: left foot) to 76:24 during the full swing 47:53(right foot: left foot) to 75:25 during the control swing 50:50(right foot: left foot) to 54:46 during the putting stroke. The biggest weight transfer pattern took place in full swing and the control swing is next, and the putting stroke is the final.

  • Aortic arch syndrome is an unusual disease entity characterized by the narrowing or obliteration of major branches of the arch of the aorta regardless of etiology. We have experienced 2 cases. One of them was 22 years old office girl with 3 months history of headache, intermittent syncope and weakness and claudication on left arm especially during her physical exercise. On physical examination, pulseless on left antecubital and radial artery and blood pressure on left arm was inable to check and coldness with weakness were noted on the same side. Aortic angiography reealed 34% narrowing of left subclavian artery as that of right. But both common carotid artery and both axillary arterial patency were relatively good. Through right supraclavicular and left axillary incision, bypass graft with Gore-tex prosthesis (I.D. 6mm, Length 25 cm) was implanted from right subclavian artery on 2cm distal to origin of right common carotid arery to left axillary artery distal to axillary fossa. End to side anastomosis with preservation of left subclavian artery was done. Postoperative state was stable with blood pressure of 110/70 mmHg on left arm and palpable antecubital and radial pulsation. Another one was 41 year old male patient with 8 months history of pain and numbness on right upper arm and shoulder. On admission, right arm blood pressure was 110/80 mmHg, left arm was 160/110 mmHg, but other physical findings had no abnormalities. Angiography revealed segmental narrowing of right axillary artery on the beginning with 2 cm in length. Operative treatment with right wupraclavicular and right axillary incision, bypass graft with great saphenous vein (Length; 15 cm) from right subclavian artery between scalenus anticus and medius to axillary artery at distal end of axillary fossa was done. The authors report two cases of Aortic arch syndrome treated with bypass graft using Autograft or Gore-tex with good result.

  • The purpose of this study was to biomechanical analysis Judo's Kuzushi throwing motion in order to increase the effectiveness of Nage-waja(throwing technique). The Tori was a Judo player with 18 years experience(4th degree) while the Uke was a player with 2 years experience(1st degree). The kinematic data was captured using the Vicon motion system (7 cameras) and the kinetics were recorded by force plates(2 AMTI). The following were the results; While leaning to the front the subject's trunk's angle was $14.5^{\circ}$, the lower limbs angle was $23.8^{\circ}$, knee angle was $179.6^{\circ}$ and the vertical reaction of the left leg was 325.42N(BW 0.34) and the right leg was 233.7N(BW 0.47). While leaning back the subject's trunk's angle was $11.3^{\circ}$, the lower limbs angle was $4.1^{\circ}$, knee angle was $1761^{\circ}$ and the vertical reaction of the left leg was 299.53N(BW 0.43) and the right leg was 441.7N(BW 0.64). While leaning to the left the subject's trunk's angle was $30.8^{\circ}$, the lower limbs angle was $2.7^{\circ}$, knee angle was $175.2^{\circ}$ and the vertical reaction of the left leg was 711N(BW 1.03) and the right leg was 9.2N(BW 0.01). While leaning to the right the subject's trunk's angle was $36.5^{\circ}$, the lower limbs angle was $10.4^{\circ}$, knee angle was $175.2^{\circ}$ and the vertical reaction of the left leg was 13.2N(BW 0.02) and the right leg was 694.7N(BW 1.01). While leaning to the left front corner the subject's trunk's angle was $19.8^{\circ}$ (front) and $15.1^{\circ}$ (left), the lower limbs angle was $17.8^{\circ}$ (front) and $2.4^{\circ}$ (left), knee angle was $177.8^{\circ}$ (front) and $173.9^{\circ}$(left), and the vertical reaction of the left leg was 547.4N(BW 0.8) and the right leg was 117.8N(BW 0.17). While leaning to the right front corner the subject's trunk's angle was $15.4^{\circ}$ (front) and $17.7^{\circ}$ (right), the lower limbs angle was $21.1^{\circ}$, (front) and $5.7^{\circ}$ (right), knee angle was $175.5^{\circ}$ (front) and $178.9^{\circ}$(right), and the vertical reaction of the left leg was 53N(BW 0.08) and the right leg was 622.4N(BW 09). While leaning to the left rear corner the subject's trunk's angle was $9.2^{\circ}$ (back) and $13.8^{\circ}$ (left), the lower limbs angle was $2^{\circ}$, (back) and $5.7^{\circ}$ (left), knee angle was $175.5^{\circ}$ (back) and $172.8^{\circ}$(left), and the vertical reaction of the left leg was 698.2N(BW 1.02) and the right leg was 49.6N(BW 0.07). While leaning to the right rear corner the subject's trunk's angle was $8.9^{\circ}$ (back) and $19.6^{\circ}$ (right), the lower limbs angle was ${0.6^{\circ}}_"$ (back) and $3.1^{\circ}$ (right), knee angle was $174.6^{\circ}$ (back) and $175.6^{\circ}$(right), and the vertical reaction of the left leg was 7.2N(BW 0.01) and the right leg was 749.4N(BW 1.09). It was observed that during the Judo motion Kuzushii the range of the COM varied from $26.5{\sim}39.9cm$. It was concluded that the upper body leaned further than the lower body as there was knee extension. There was high left leg reaction forces while leaning to the left and likewise for the right side. It was therefore deduced that the Kuzushi was a more effective throwing technique for the left side.

  • Vuillaume-Okeya presented unsigned receding methods for protecting modular exponentiations against side channel attacks, which are suitable for tamper-resistant implementations of RSA or DSA which does not benefit from cheap inversions. The proposed method was using a signed representation with digits set ${1,2,{\cdots},2^{\omega}-1}$, where 0 is absent. This receding method was designed to be computed only from the right-to-left, i.e., it is necessary to finish the receding and to store the receded string before starting the left-to-right evaluation stage. This paper describes new receding methods for producing SPA-resistant unsigned representations which are scanned from left to right contrary to the previous ones. Our contributions are as follows; (1) SPA-resistant unsigned left-to-right receding with general width-${\omega}$, (2) special case when ${\omega}=1$, i.e., unsigned binary representation using the digit set {1,2}, (3) SPA-resistant unsigned left-to-right Comb receding, (4) extension to unsigned radix-${\gamma}$ left-to-right receding secure against SPA. Hence, these left-to-right methods are suitable for implementing on memory limited devices such as smartcards and sensor nodes
