Over the last few decades, the rates of pediatric obesity have more than doubled regardless of sociodemographic categorization, and despite these rates plateauing in recent years there continues to be an increase in the severity of obesity in children and adolescents. This review will discuss the pediatric obesity mediated cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors such as attenuated levels of satiety and energy metabolism hormones, insulin resistance, vascular endothelial dysfunction, and arterial stiffness. Additionally, early intervention to combat pediatric obesity is critical as obesity has been suggested to track into adulthood, and these obese children and adolescents are at an increased risk of early mortality. Current suggested strategies to combat pediatric obesity are modifying diet, limiting sedentary behavior, and increasing physical activity. The effects of exercise intervention on metabolic hormones such as leptin and adiponectin, insulin sensitivity/resistance, and body fat in obese children and adolescents will be discussed along with the exercise modality, intensity, and duration. Specifically, this review will focus on the differential effects of aerobic exercise, resistance training, and combined exercise on the cardiovascular risks in pediatric obesity. This review outlines the evidence that exercise intervention is a beneficial therapeutic strategy to reduce the risk factors for CVD and the ideal exercise prescription to combat pediatric obesity should contain both muscle strengthening and aerobic components with an emphasis on fat mass reduction and long-term adherence.

This study proposes an RCS composite damping device that can achieve seismic reinforcement of existing buildings by dissipating energy by inelastic deformation. A series of experiments assessing the performances of the rubber core pad, hysteretic steel slit damping device, and hybrid RCS damping device were conducted. The results showed that the ratios of the deviations to the mean values satisfied the domestic damping-device conformity condition for the load at maximum device displacement in each direction, at the maximum force and minimum force at zero displacement, as well as the hysteresis curve area. In addition, three analysis models based on load-displacement characteristics were proposed for application to seismic reinforcement design. In addition, the validity of the three proposed models was confirmed, as they simulated the experimental results well. Meanwhile, as the shear deformation of the rubber-core pad increased, the hysteretic behavior of super-elasticity greatly increased the horizontal force of the damping device. Therefore, limiting the allowable displacement during design is deemed to be necessary.

One of the possible ways to make a flexible wire of high-Tc superconductiong ceramics is the extrusion of a mixture slurry of superconducting powder with an appropriate polymer binder. The fabrication procedure for $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$ superconducting coils with this plastic mass is described. The major factors limiting the formation of extruded wire are the binder content, powder size, and entrapped gas in the mixture slurries. The optimum content of binder for both good flexbility and strength of wire was estimated to be 30wt%. The finer the powder size is, the more homogeneous structure the extruded wire has. The vacuum degassing before extrusion was necessary to remove the entrapped gas in as-extruded wire. The formability of wire depends greatly on the wire radius and binder content. After burning out the binder and the successive sintering, the contacts between the superconducting grains could be made. The resistivity vs. temperature behavior measured in the final wire showed the transition temperature of 90K with narrow transition width. However, the critical current densities of these wires are much lower in comparison to those of conventional bulk specimens.

1999년 3월, 7월, 9월 및 11월에 섬진강 하구역에서 염분경사에 따른 영양염의 거동을 조사하였다. 조사 정점은 지리적 위치보다는 각 조사시마다 표층 염분을 현장에서 측정하여 결정하였다. 질산 질소와 규산 규소의 주요 공급원은 섬진강이었으며 아질산 질소와 인산 인은 섬진강 하구입구와 인접한 광양만에서 배출되는 도시하수와 공장폐수에 영향을 받고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 암모니아 질소는 난초도로부터 약 $6\~8km$ 지점에서 공급양상을 보였다. 암모니아 질소, 인산 인,규산 규소의 강한 제거 거동은 엽록소 $\alpha$ 농도가 $>8{\mu}g/L$ 이상으로 매우 높았던 11월 $5\~15psu$ 염분역에서 나타났다. 엽록소 a 최고치 지점에서 N : P 비가 높고 인산 인이 거의 제거된 것은 인산 인이 식물플랑크톤 성장의 제한 요인으로 작용하고 있다는 것을 시사해 주고 있다. 11월에 $5\~15psu$ 염분 역에서의 상대적으로 높은 Rb/Ra (Rb: Fluorescence before acidifcation, Ra: Fluorescence after acidification) 비는 식물플랑크톤이 이 지역에서 생리적으로 성장하기에 좋은 환경이었음을 의미한다.

A large number of chemical pollutants including phthalates, alkylphenolic compounds and organochlorine pesticides have the ability to disrupt endocrine function in animals, and alter cog-nitive function. Because hormone mediated events play an important role in central nervous system development and function, the changes in cognitive function seem to be mediated by the endocrine-like action of these chemicals. The present study therefore was designed to investigate effect of bisphenol A (BPA), an endocrine disrupting chemical on neuro-behavial patterns, and expression of estrogen receptors and tyrosine hydroxylase, a limiting enzyme of dopamine synthesis pathway. BPA was treated orally for 3 weeks into 3 week old mice, and then the neuro-behavial patterns (stereo-type behaviors such as jumping rearing and forepaw tremor, climbing behavior, tail flick, rotarod and locomotor activity), and the expression of estrogen receptors and tyrosine hydroxylase were deter-mined every 3 week for 9 weeks. During the treatment of BPA, the food uptake and body weight increase were not significantly changed. BPA resulted in the increased stereotype behaviors (jump-ing, rearing and forepaw tremor) 6 or 9 weeks after treatment. The time response to tail flick and locomotor activity were decreased by the treatment of BPA, whereas the time for rotarod was increased by the treatment of BPA. The expression of estrogen receptor alpha and beta was increased in the brain and pituitary gland. Maximum expression was found in the brain after 9 week of 100 mg/kg BPA treatment and in the pituitary gland after 6 week of 100 mg/kg BPA treatment. Tyrosine hydroxylase was increased in dose and time dependent manners in the brain but no change was found in the pituitary gland. The present data show that exposure of BPA in the young mice could alter expression of estrogen receptors and dopamine synthesis pathway, thereby modulate neuro-behavial patterns (increase of stereotype behaviors but decrease locomotor activity).

우리나라는 신체적 위해 뿐만 아니라, 사회경제적으로도 규모와 심각도를 더해가고 있는 음주폐해의 감소를 위해 다양한 방안들을 모색하고 있다. 그 중에서도 개인들의 음주행태 개선은 음주폐해를 줄이는 가장 직접적인 방법이다. 외국에서는 '보호행동전략'의 사용이 음주폐해를 줄이는 효과적인 방안으로 알려져 있는데, 우리나라에서는 성인을 대상으로 이를 조사하여 검증한 연구들이 매우 부족하다. 따라서 본 연구는 보호행동전략의 사용이 음주폐해 감소에 유의한 영향을 끼치는지를 확인하고자 하였다. 전국 성인 남녀 2,000명을 대상으로 한 연구 결과, 보호행동전략의 사용은 음주폐해를 줄이는 것으로 나타났으며, 음주폐해에 가장 큰 영향을 끼친 것은 심각한 폐해감소 전략 영역이었고, 다음으로 음주방법 제한 영역이었다. 음주량 감소 영역의 영향은 유의하지 못한 것으로 나타났다. 이 외에도 음주빈도, 폭음, 음주 동기는 음주폐해에 정적인 영향을 끼쳤으며, 사교 동기의 경우만 부적인 영향을 끼쳤다. 본 연구에서는 향후 종단연구를 통한 면밀한 요인들 간의 관계 파악, 대상층을 세분화한 보호행동전략 사용 강화 방안에 관한 후속 연구들을 제안하였다.

본 연구에서는 연약지반에 시공한 단독말뚝에서 발생하는 주변마찰력과 이로 인해 유발되는 축하중 해석방법을 개발하고 해석결과를 유한요소해석 프로그램에 의한 예측결과 및 현장 실험값과 비교 분석하였다. 이때 말뚝과 지반의 접촉면에 국부파괴가 발생하는 경우(slip case)와 발생하지 않는 경우(no slip case)에 대해 고려하였다. 본 연구에서 말뚝의 지지층은 암반인 경우를 고려하였고 해석모형의 물성으로는 말뚝, 연약 지반, 암반층에 대하여 모두 일반적인 값들을 적용하였다. 해석결과를 유한요소해석 및 현장 실측값과 비교 분석한 결과, 말뚝에 발생하는 주면마찰력은 압밀도가 커짐에 따라 증가하며, 주면마찰력에 의해 유발되는 축하중은 압밀이 완료되는 시기에 최대의 값을 갖는다는 결론을 얻었다. 또한 복잡한 2차원 또는 3차원 비선형 거동 해석외에 간단한 1차원 압밀 이론을 적용한 해석 역시 비교적 정확한 결과를 얻을 수 있음을 알았다.

Fouling by solids and microorganisms is the major obstacle limiting the efficient use of membrane wastewater treatment. In our previous study, two stages microalgae/membrane filtration system was proposed to treat anaerobic digested palm oil mill effluent (AnPOME). This two stages microalgae/membrane filtration system had showed great potential for the treatment of AnPOME with high removal of COD, $NH_3-N$, $PO_4{^{3-}}$, TSS, turbidity, and colour. However, fouling behavior of the membrane in this two stages microalgae/membrane filtration system was still unknown. In this study, empirical models that describe permeate flux decline for dead-end filtration (pore blocking - complete, intermediate, and standard; and cake layer formation) presented by Hermia were used to fit the experimental results in identifying the fouling mechanism under different experimental conditions. Both centrifuged and non-centrifuged samples were taken from the medium with 3 days RT intervals, from day 0 to day 12 to study their influence on fouling mechanisms described by Hermia for ultrafiltration (UF), nanofiltration (NF), and reverse osmosis (RO) filtration mode. Besides, a more detailed study on the use of resistance-in-series model for deadend filtration was done to investigate the fouling mechanisms involved in membrane filtration of AnPOME collected after microalgae treatment. The results showed that fouling of UF and NF membrane was mainly caused by cake layer formation and it was also supported by the analysis for resistance-in-series model. Whereas, fouling of RO membrane was dominated by concentration polarization.

The rates of the aminolysis of S-phenyl substituted-acetate series $(RC(=O)SC_6H_4Z$, with R=Me, Et, i-Pr, t-Bu and Bn) with benzylamines $(XC_6H_4CH_2NH_2)$ are not correlated simply with the Taft's polar $({\sigma}^{\ast})$ and/or steric effect constants $(E_s)$ of the substituents due to abnormally enhanced rate of the substrate with R=Et. Furthermore, the cross-interaction constant, ${\rho}x_z$ , is the largest with R=Et. These anomalous behaviors can only be explained by invoking the vicinal bond $({\sigma})$-antibond $({\sigma}^{\ast})$ charge transfer interaction between C-$C{\alpha}$ and C-S bonds. In the tetrahedral zwitterionic intermediate, $T^{\pm}$ , formed with R=Et the vicinal ${\sigma}_{c-c}-{\sigma}^{\ast}_{c-s}$ delocalization is the strongest with an optimum antiperiplanar arrangement and a narrow energy gap, ${\Delta}{\varepsilon}={\varepsilon}_{{\sigma}^{\ast}}-{\varepsilon}_{\sigma}$. Due to this charge transfer interaction, the stability of the intermediate increases (with the concomitant increase in the equilibrium constant K (= $k_a/k_{-a}$)) and also the leaving ability of the thiophenolate leaving group increases (and hence $k_b$ increases) so that the overall rate, $k_n\;=\;Kk_b$, is strongly enhanced. Theoretical support is provided by the natural bond orbital (NBO) analyses at the B3LYP/6-31+$G^{\ast}$ level. The anomaly exhibited by R=Et attests to the stepwise reaction mechanism in which the leaving group departure is rate limiting.
