We have observed the emission of $HC_3N$ J=4-3, 5-4,10-9 and 12-11 transitions toward the Sgr B2 central region in an area of $150'\times150'$ with resolutions of 16'-48'. The intensities and central velocities of line profiles show significant variations with positions. In contrast to the intensities of the low J-level transitions which gradually increase from the central source toward the outside region, the $HC_3N$ emission of the high J-level transition become stronger toward 'the central radio continuum source MD5. Systematic change in the radial velocity of each line profile occurs along north-south direction. There are a few peaks in most line profiles, and these indicate that there are multiple velocity components along the line of sight. Distributions of excitation temperature and column density which were estimated from the excitation calculations show the existence of a small $(1\times2pc),\;hot\;(T_{ex}>50K)$ core which contains two temperature peaks at-15' east and north of MD5. The column density of $HC_3N\;is\;(1-3)\times10^{14}cm^{-2}$ Column density at distant position from MD5 is larger than that in the central region. We have deduced that this 'hot-core' has a mass of 105M 0, which is about an order of magnitude larger than those obtained by previous studies.

In an integral-imaging microscopy (IIM) system, a microlens array (MLA) is the primary optical element; however, surface errors impede the resolution of a raw image's details. Calibration is a major concern with regard to incorrect projection of the light rays. A ray-tracing-based calibration method for an IIM camera is proposed, to address four errors: MLA decentering, rotational, translational, and subimage-scaling errors. All of these parameters are evaluated using the reference image obtained from the ray-traced white image. The areas and center points of the microlens are estimated using an "8-connected" and a "center-of-gravity" method respectively. The proposed approach significantly improves the rectified-image quality and nonlinear image brightness for an IIM system. Numerical and optical experiments on multiple real objects demonstrate the robustness and effectiveness of our proposed method, which achieves on average a 35% improvement in brightness for an IIM raw image.

목적 : 정상인 경수에 대한 내부 부위별, 경수 레벨별 확산텐서영상과 뇌척수액 속도에 대한 정상인 기준을 마련하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 정상인을 대상으로 3T MRI를 이용하여 영상을 획득하였다. 확산텐서영상은 척수 레벨별로 각각 미리 정의해둔 백질의 후삭, 좌, 우 측삭과 회백질에 관심영역을 정하여 FA, MD에 대한 평균값을 구하였다. PC 기법을 이용한 뇌척수액 속도 측정은 C2-3, C4-5, C5-6 척수레벨을 각각 스캔한 후, 척수 레벨별 최대 수축기 및 이완기 속도를 측정하였다. 결과 : FA 값과 MD 값에서 회백질과 백질의 내부 구조 사이에서는 통계적으로 유의한 차이 (p < 0.05)를 보였다. 경수 레벨별에서는 회백질의 FA 값에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이(p < 0.05)를 보였으며, 나머지 부분에서는 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다 (p > 0.05). 뇌척수액 속도 측정 결과, 평균 최대 수축기 속도 $5.18{\pm}2.00cm/sec$, 평균 최대 이완기 속도 $-7.32{\pm}3.18cm/sec$ 이었으며, 경수 레벨별로는 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다 (p > 0.05). 결론 : 정상인에 대한 경수 확산텐서영상의 정량적 수치 및 경수 레벨에 영향을 받지 않는 뇌척수액 속도에 대한 평균치를 알 수가 있었다.

최근 독립된 네트워크의 구성 및 다양한 컨버전스 디바이스간 상호연결에 대한 요구로 MANET의 연구는 IETF MANET WG, Bluetooth, HomeRF WG에서 활발하게 진행되고 있으며, 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 활용은 많은 주목과 고도의 성장을 보이고 있다. MANET에 참여하는 MN들은 호스트와 라우터 기능을 동시에 수행하여 네트워크 환경설정이 쉽고 빠른 대응력으로 임베디드 컴퓨팅에 적합하지만 MN의 이동성으로 인한 동적 네트워크 토폴로지, 네트워크 확장성 결여 그리고 수동적 능동적 공격에 대한 취약성을 지니고 있어 지속적인 보안 서비스를 관리할 수 없다. 본 연구는 경로탐색 및 경로설정을 하는 라우팅 단계에서 악의적인 노드가 라우팅 메시지를 위 변조 하거나 적법한 MN으로 위장하는 공격을 방지하기 위해 AODV 라우팅 프로토콜에 MD5를 적용한 해시된 라우팅 프로토콜을 이용하여 안전성과 효율성을 향상 시켰다.

The use of intravenous patient-controlled analgesia is an effective and increasingly used means of providing postoperative pain relief. Recently a non-electric, disposable and portable infusor, the Baxter $Infusor^{(R)}$, has developed. This delivers not only a continuous drug infusion but can also deliver extradoses of medication on demand. The present study examined the benefits of two kinds of analgesics for pain management in 28 patients undergoing gynecological surgery. One group, 14 patients, received i.v. meperidine 0.5 mg/kg as loading dose in the recovery room and PCA with meperidine 3 mg/kg/day for 3 days only(M group). In the other group, 14 patients, also received i.v. meperidine 0.5 mg/kg as loading dose in the recovery room and PCA meperidine 3 mg/kg/day for 3 days and droperidol 5 mg(MD group). The PCA device used was the Baxter $Infusor^{(R)}$. This unit was fitted with patient control module which had a flow rate 0.5 ml/hr and the lockout time was 15 min. Resulting from the study, the MD patients in the first and second days post-operatively, reported less pain compared with the M group. VAPS(Visual Analogue Pain Scales) values were $3.52{\pm}l.61$ vs. $2.22{\pm}0.69$, $2.38{\pm}1.12$ vs. $1.45{\pm}0.48$ and $1.93{\pm}1.65$ vs. $0.98{\pm}0.36$, respectively pertaining to M and MD groups. In conclusion, the MD group with meperidine and droperidol(mixed regimen) provided more effective postoperative analgesia than M group(meperidine only).

Objectives : We aimed to determine therapeutic effects of probiotics-fermented Magnolia denudata(MD) in the allergic rhinitis model mice. Methods : Polyphenol production, DPPH radical scavenging activity and NO inhibition of fermented MD by different bacterial strains were evaluated to select the one that is most suitable for fermentation. Thirty C57BL/6 mice were divided randomly into 5 groups as follows: normal group, ovalbumin(OVA)-treated plus water fed(CON group), OVA-treated plus unfermented MD fed(UMD group), OVA-treated plus fermented autoclaved MD fed(A-FMD group) and OVA-treated plus fermented unautoclaved MD fed(FMD group). After 9 weeks, we observed changes in the blood cell count, OVA-specific IgE level, nasal rubbing, nasal mucosal tissue and body weight. Results : Extract of MD fermented by Bifidobacterium breve(BB) for 48 hours showed the highest anti-oxidant activity and anti-inflammatory activity out of all the other bacterial strains. The number of eosinophil count in A-FMD, FMD group and platelet count in FMD group showed statistically significant decrease(p<0.05). OVA-specific IgE level decreased in all 3 experimental groups, significantly in UMD and A-FMD group. Nasal symptoms were attenuated in all 3 experimental groups, statistically significant in A-FMD and FMD group (p<0.05). Histologically, infiltration of eosinophils into the nasal mucosa decreased in all 3 experimental groups, especially marked decrease in FMD group. Conclusions : According to the above results, it is considered that probiotics-fermented Magnolia denudata has inhibitory effects on the allergic rhinitis animal models.

Recent findings from The Cancer Genome Atlas project have provided a comprehensive map of genomic alterations that occur in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), including unexpected mutations in apolipoprotein B (APOB). We aimed to determine the clinical significance of this non-oncogenetic mutation in HCC. An Apob gene signature was derived from genes that differed between control mice and mice treated with siRNA specific for Apob (1.5-fold difference; P < 0.005). Human gene expression data were collected from four independent HCC cohorts (n = 941). A prediction model was constructed using Bayesian compound covariate prediction, and the robustness of the APOB gene signature was validated in HCC cohorts. The correlation of the APOB signature with previously validated gene signatures was performed, and network analysis was conducted using ingenuity pathway analysis. APOB inactivation was associated with poor prognosis when the APOB gene signature was applied in all human HCC cohorts. Poor prognosis with APOB inactivation was consistently observed through cross-validation with previously reported gene signatures (NCIP A, HS, high-recurrence SNUR, and high RS subtypes). Knowledge-based gene network analysis using genes that differed between low-APOB and high-APOB groups in all four cohorts revealed that low-APOB activity was associated with upregulation of oncogenic and metastatic regulators, such as HGF, MTIF, ERBB2, FOXM1, and CD44, and inhibition of tumor suppressors, such as TP53 and PTEN. In conclusion, APOB inactivation is associated with poor outcome in patients with HCC, and APOB may play a role in regulating multiple genes involved in HCC development.

우리나라에서는 치수사업을 추진하기 위한 경제성 분석으로 간편법과 개선법을 사용하여 오다가 현재는 2004년도에 개발된 다차원법(다차원 홍수피해 산정방법(Multi-Dimensional Flood Damage Analysis))을 이용하고 있다. 다차원법은 도시와 농촌 등의 구분없이 일반적으로 이용할 수 있도록 개발되었는데 본 논문에서는 도시지역에 적합하도록 다차원법의 홍수피해 산정 요소들을 보정하여 적용하고자 하였다. 즉, 다차원법에서 제시하고 있는 피해액 산정 항목들 중 도시지역 분석을 위해 일부를 보정 또는 제안하였다. 본 연구에서 제안하는 항목은 배수펌프장의 내수배제능력을 고려해 침수모의를 수행하여 침수 예상지역에 대한 침수심을 산정하는 것이다. 그리고 보정한 항목으로는 산업지역의 피해, 공공시설물의 피해율 등에 대한 것으로 도시지역의 피해액 산정을 위해 수정하여 적용하였다. 도림천의 지하방수로 사업의 비용-편익비를 산정하여 비교한 결과, 다차원법을 이용한 경우 5.51, 본 연구에서 제시한 비주거지역 자산과 공공시설물의 피해율을 이용한 경우는 6.75의 비용-편익비를 추정할 수 있었다. 이는 피해액 항목들 중, 많은 비중을 차지하는 공공시설물피해 항목에 의한 영향의 크기 때문인 것으로 판단된다.

In order to evaluate the contamination and health risk, levels of six hazardous elements i.e., Cr, Ni, Cu, As, Cd and Pb in soils of 12 different land-uses were measured. The average concentration of Cu, Cr, Ni, Pb, As and Cd in soils were 267, 239, 206, 195, 58 and 16 mg/kg, respectively. Levels of each metal exceeded the environmental action level for soils, which could pose significant risk to human. The metal concentrations were subsequently used to establish hazard indices (for adults and children) where the 5th and 95th percentile values were used to derive the hazard index through different exposure pathways (ingestion, dermal contact and inhalation). Considering the total exposure through each of the three pathways, the hazard index elucidates that there was a potency of non-cancer risk at most of the sites for both the adults and children. The findings of this study suggested that different land-use soils were severely contaminated with hazardous elements and attention is needed on the potential health risks to the exposed inhabitants.
