During the excavation of a tunnel portal, failure zones around the tunnel heading occur and also the ground supports itself. In a portal, its location and the ground characteristic have a great influence on the stability of the tunnel. Therefore, the failure mechanism of a tunnel heading and how to assess the stability of the tunnel are very important. In this paper, the numerical analyses were executed to evaluate the safety factor using strength reduction technique. The influence area of an excavation was also predicted through a case study in which no-support case and support case with the Pattern P-6 were compared in terms of the ground class and the shear strain.

Despite recent advancements in the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic cancer, clinical results remain dismal. Furthermore, there are no reliable biomarkers or alternatives beyond carbohydrate antigen 19-9. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) may be a potential biomarker, but their therapeutic application is constrained by their rarity in peripheral venous blood. Theoretically, the portal vein can be a more appropriate location for the detection of CTCs, because the first venous drainage of pancreatic cancer is portal circulation. According to several studies, the number and detection rate of CTCs may be higher in the portal blood than in the peripheral blood. CTC counts in the portal blood are strongly correlated with several prognostic parameters such as hepatic metastasis, recurrence after surgery, and survival. The phenotypic and genotypic properties analyzed in the captured portal CTCs can assist us to comprehend tumor heterogeneity and predicting the prognosis of pancreatic cancer. The investigations to date are limited by small sample sizes and varied CTC detection techniques. Therefore, a large number of prospective studies are required to confirm portal CTCs as a valid biomarker in pancreatic cancer.

Purpose: To assess the degree and clinical impact of location error of the dens on the X-axis during radiotherapy to brain and head and neck tumors. Materials and Methods: Twenty-one patients with brain tumors or head and neck tumors who received three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy or intensity-modulated radiation therapy from January 2009 to June 2010 were included in this study. In comparison two-dimensional verification portal images with initial simulation images, location error of the nasal septum and the dens on the X-axis was measured. The effect of set-up errors of the dens was simulated in the planning system and analyzed with physical dose parameters. Results: A total of 402 portal images were reviewed. The mean location error at the nasal septum was 0.16 mm and at the dens was 0.33 mm (absolute value). Location errors of more than 3 mm were recorded in 43 cases (10.7%) at the nasal septum, compared to 133 cases (33.1%) at the dens. There was no case with a location error more than 5 mm at the nasal septum, compared to 11 cases (2.7%) at the dens. In a dosimetric simulation, a location error more than 5 mm at the dens could induce a reduction in the clinical target volume 1 coverage (V95: 100%${\rightarrow}$87.2%) and overdosing to a critical normal organ (Spinal cord V45: <0.1%${\rightarrow}$12.6%). Conclusion: In both brain and head and neck radiotherapy, a relatively larger set-up error was detected at the dens than the nasal septum when using an electronic portal imaging device. Consideration of the location error of the dens is necessary at the time of the precise radiation beam delivery in two-dimensional verification systems.

Purpose: Recent development and advances in the arthroscopic surgical techniques for anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) reconstruction have led to the ideal location for more oblique anatomic point of the femur from 10 to 10:30 o'clock(in the right knee) and from 2 to 1:30 o'clock(in the left knee) in the frontal plane. This study was performed to compare the operative methods and the radiologic results of the femoral tunnels made through the tibial tunnel(trans-tibial approach) and the anteromedial portal. Materials and Methods: From January 2003 to May 2004, on hundred reconstructions of ACL were performed. Group I(the femoral tunnel made through the tibial tunnel) consisted of 50 cases and group I(the femoral tunnel made through the anteromedial portal) consisted of 50 cases. The operative methods and the radiographic results of the femoral tunnels were compared. Results: Femoral tunnel was made more easily at more oblique anatomic point in group II than in group I. In group II, better visual field was achieved at the angle of 100? flexion of the knee joint, the risks of the posterior cortical breakage and the tunnel-graft mismatching were reduced more, and the divergence of femoral interference screw from the radiograph decreased more than in group I(p<0.05). The angle between the femoral tunnel and the longitudinal axis of ACL increased in group II. Conclusion: Anteromedial portal technique was useful for femoral tunneling toward 10 to 10:30 o'clock(in the right knee) and 2 to 1:30 o'clock(in the left knee) in ACL reconstruction. Level of Evidence:Level III, case-control study.

Purpose of this study is to determine the reasonable portal approach for thoracoscopic right middle lung lobectomy in small sized dogs under 10 kg. Ten healthy beagle dogs weighing $8.67{\pm}0.49kg$ were included. Under general anesthesia, one-lung ventilation (1LV) was achieved using endobronchial blocker with guidance of fiber-optic bronchoscope. Two portal approaches were used; 8-6-10 intercostal space (ICS) and 8-6-5 ICS approach. Thoracoscopic right middle lung lobectomy was performed using endoscopic linear self-cutting stapler and specimen retrieval bag. Each approach was evaluated by scoring 0; bad, 1; endurable, 2; good, 3; excellent in following five category, 1) visualization, 2) triangulation; instrumental sword fighting in the thoracic cavity, 3) approach to hilar pedicle; application of stapler, 4) any obstacles in applicating Lap Bag, and 5) the operator's convenience. Favorable working space was secured by 1LV and thoracoscopic right middle lung lobectomy was successfully completed in all dogs. There was no need to change the portal location and iatrogenic complication. Most of scores were good to excellent in both approaches. Consequently, both approaches are feasible methods for thoracoscopic right middle lung lobectomy with one lung ventilation using endoscopic linear self-cutting stapler in dogs weighing less than 10 kg.

The open data portal collects data created by public institutions and opens and shares them according to related laws. With the activation of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, all sectors of our society are demanding high quality data, but the data required by the industry has not been greatly utilized due to the lack of quantity and quality. Numerous data collected in the real world can be implemented in cyber physical systems to simulate real-world problems, and alternatives to various social issues can be found. There is a limit to being provided. Location intelligence is a technology that enables existing data to be represented in space, enabling new value creation through convergence. In this study, to present location intelligence of open data, we surveyed the status of location information by data in open data portal. As a result, about 60% of the surveyed data had location information and the representative type was address. Appeared. Therefore, by suggesting location intelligence of open data based on address and how to use it, this study aimed to suggest a way that open data can play a role in creating future social data-based industry and policy establishment.
