The 0.96MgTiO$_3$-0.04SrTiO$_3$+xCe(x=0∼1.6 wt%) ceramics were fabricated by the conventional mixed oxide method. The sintering temperature and time were 1300$^{\circ}C$, 2hr., respectively. From the X-ray diffraction patterns, it was found that the perovskite SrTiO$_3$ and ilmenite MgTiO$_3$ structures were coexisted in the 0.96MgTiO$_3$-0.04SrTiO$_3$+xCe(x=0∼1.6 wt%) ceramics. The dielectric constant($\varepsilon$$\sub$r/) was increased with addition of Ce. The temperature coefficient of resonant frequency($\tau$$\sub$f/) was gradually varied from positive value to the negative value with increasing the Ce. The temperature coefficient of resonant frequency of the 0.96MgTiO$_3$-0.04SrTiO$_3$+0.2Ce ceramics was near zero, where the dielectric constant, quality factor, and $\tau$$\sub$f/ were 20.68, 50, 272 and -0.5pm/$^{\circ}C$, respectively.

MST247ns(Hwaseong #2) was developed by the method of Di-mon mating between monokaryotic strains derived from "Hwaseong #1" and dikaryotic strain "Suhan #1". The optimum temperature of mycelial growth was $25-30^{\circ}C$. The optimum temperature of primordia formation and fruiting body development were $8-15^{\circ}C$ and $9-14^{\circ}C$. Days of primordia formation were 4-5 days later Suhan #1. The stipes were longer than "Suhan #1". The surfaces of stipe were white and the tissues got harder and more elastic. Therefore, the management of growth environment under low temperatures was relatively easy and storability got much better.

We examined the effects of the vibration stress on oxygen consumption and ammonia excretion of cultured soft-shelled turtle, Pelodiscus sinensis. For the stressed group vibration of $45{\sim}78\;dB$ (V) from electric vibrator was turned on for 15 min with 2-h intervals during daytime hours ($08:00{\sim}18:00$) for 28 days. Two different sizes of soft-shelled turtle, large (carapace length: $12{\sim}16\;cm$, body weight: $300{\sim}600\;g$, large size turtle: LST) and middle ($16{\sim}20\;cm,\;700{\sim}1,000\;g$, middle size turtle: MST) were used. The oxygen consumption of LST the beginning of the experiment (1 day) was 124.30 mg $O_2/kg/hr$, and after 7, 14, 21 and 28 days of stress decreased by 47.2, 71.6, 79.1 and 86.0%, respectively. In MST, oxygen consumption of beginning day was 66.04 mg $O_2/kg/hr$, and after 28 days of stress decreased by 76.5%. Ammonia nitrogen excretion showed a similar pattern to that of oxygen consumption. Ammonia nitrogen excretion of beginning of the experiment was 0.537 mg N/kg/hr, and after 28 days of stress decreased by 75.4% for LST, and by 74.3% for the middle ones. From in this study it was showed that the physiological activity was reduced by 50% following 8.4 days of vibration stress for LST, and 15.5 days for MST.

The purpose of this retrospective study was to provide additional data on the use of toceranib in a wide variety of tumor types in small breed dogs, especially < 8 kg (except 5 dogs). This was a retrospective study of 31 dogs with malignant tumors treated with a 2.5 mg/kg median dose of toceranib (Palladia; Zoetis, USA) on a Monday-Wednesday-Friday schedule. Clinical benefit was observed in 13 of 15 dogs (86.7%, 3 with complete response, 4 with partial response, 6 with stable disease) with gross disease. Distant metastasis, response to treatment, and treatment setting were significantly associated with survival time. Negative prognostic factors were multiple chemotherapy and distant metastasis (affecting progression-free survival [PFS]), surgery, regional enlarged lymph nodes, underlying disease, and toxicity (affecting median survival time [MST]). Positive prognostic factors were epithelial and round cell tumor (affecting PFS), epithelial tumor, microscopic disease, no evidence of disease response, and stable disease (MST). In conclusion, a clinical benefit from toceranib treatment was noted in most of the dogs with gross disease in our study. This study suggested that the toceranib is probably selective treatment to various tumor types in small breed dogs.

In image segmentation, for the condition that objects (targets) and background in an image are intertwined or their common boundaries are vague as well as their textures are similar, and the targets in images are greatly variable, the deep learning might be difficult to use. Hence, a new method based on graph theory and guided feathering is proposed. First, it uses a guided feathering algorithm to initially separate the objects from background roughly, then, the image is separated into two different images: foreground image and background image, subsequently, the two images are segmented accurately by using the improved graph-based algorithm respectively, and finally, the two segmented images are merged together as the final segmentation result. For the graph-based new algorithm, it is improved based on MST in three main aspects: (1) the differences between the functions of intra-regional and inter-regional; (2) the function of edge weight; and (3) re-merge mechanism after segmentation in graph mapping. Compared to the traditional algorithms such as region merging, ordinary MST and thresholding, the studied algorithm has the better segmentation accuracy and effect, therefore it has the significant superiority.

Physical properties of Plasma electrolytic oxidized 8 different kinds of Al alloys, A-1100, A-2024, A-5052, A-6061, A-6063, A-7075, ACD-7B and ACD-12 were investigated. The electrolyte for PEO was $Na_2SiO_3$ and NaOH and some alkali earthen metal salts system solution. $\eta$-alumina, as well as $\gamma$-alumina, was main crystal phase, which were ever reported. Also, $Al_{4.95}Si_{1.05}O_{9.52}$ was found only in this research. So we can conclude that the process conditions of PEO apparatus and composition and concentration of its electrolyte affects crystal structure and physical properties of PEO layers much more than the compositions of Al alloy.

온열쾌적감에 영향을 주는 중요한 요인들로는 온도, 습도, 기류 등의 물리적 요인과 성별이나 체질 등 뿐만 아니라 온열환경에서 느끼는 인간의 감성적인 측면도 요인으로 작용한다. 본 연구에서는 여러 가지 온열 환경 중에서 실내의 상하온도차와 기류방식의 제어에 따른 생체반응의 변화, 및 감성의 변화를 관찰하여 온열환경에 따른 인간의 온열쾌적감을 평가하기 위해 생리신호를 측정, 분석하였다. 인간에게 가장 쾌적함을 주는 최적의 실내 상하온도차와 기류제어방식을 구현하기 위한 평가방법으로 MST(mean skin temperature)분석 및 HRV(heart rate variability) 분석과 EEG 주파수 스펙트럼 분석을 시행하였다. 그 결과 실내의 상하온도차는 23$^{\circ}C$의 머리부위 온도에서 발 부위와의 온도차가 -3$^{\circ}C$일 때 가장 쾌적한 조건으로 나타났고, 기류제어방식은 감성기류조건에서 가장 쾌적함을 보였다. 본 연구를 통해 실내의 상하온도차와 기류방식에 대한 온열환경의 쾌적조건을 설정하였고, HRV 분석과 EEG의 주파수 분석이 주판신소설문평가와 유의한 결과를 나타내어 이러한 생리신호의 분석이 인간의 감성적 측면을 고려한 온열쾌적성을 펑가하는데 보다 객관적이고 신뢰성 있는 평가지표로 이용될 수 있음을 제시하였다.

Physical properties of plasma electrolytic oxidized layers of 8 different kinds of Al alloys, A-1100, A-2024, A-5052, A-6061, A-6063, A-7075, ACD-7B and ACD-12 were investigated. The electrolyte for plasma electrolytic oxidation was mixture of distilled water, $Na_2P_2O_7$, KOH and some metal salts. Growth rate of oxide layer was slower in $Na_2P_2O_7$ electrolyte system than in $Na_2SiO_3$ system, and Ra50 surface roughness of oxidized layer was below $1.2{\mu}m$. Surface hardness in $Na_2P_2O_7$ electrolyte system is higher than in $Na_2SiO_3$ system, and roughness was lower in $Na_2P_2O_7$ electrolyte system than in $Na_2SiO_3$ system.

Crystal structure and chemical compositions of Plasma electrolytic oxidized layer of A-1100, A-2024, A-5052, A-6061, A-6063, A-7075, ACD-7B and ACD-12 were investigated. The electrolyte for plasma electrolytic oxidation was mixture of distilled water, $Na_2P_2O_7$, Cu, Cr metal salts and KOH. ${\eta}$-Alumina, as well as ${\alpha}$-alumina, was main crystal phase. Another crystals such as $(Al_{0.948}Cr_{0.052})_2O_3$ and $(Al_{0.9}Cr_{0.1})_2O_3$ were also formed in the oxide layer. It was thought that the effect of electrolyte compositions on the physical properties and crystal system of PEO layers was greater than the effect of Al alloy composition variation.

Purpose : The effect of hyperfractionated radiotherapy on locally advanced non-small lung cancer was studied by a retrospective analysis. Materials & Methods : We analyzed sixty one patients of biopsy-confirmed, IIIA and IIIB non-small cell lung cancer. Using the ECOG performance scale, all the patients were scored less than 2. They were treated by curative hyperfractionated radiotherapy alone from Oct. 1992 to Oct. 1995 at the Department of Radiation Oncology. All the patients received 120cGy b.i.d with more than 6 hours interval between each fraction. The total dose of radiation was reached up to 6400-7080 cGy with a mean dose of 6934 cGy. The results were analyzed retrospectively. Results : The overall survival rate was 53 1$\%$ in 1 year, 9.9$\%$ in 2 years with a median survival time (MST) of 13.9 months. The progression free survival (PFS) rate was 37.0$\%$ in 1 year, 8.9$\%$ in 2 years. Twenty two Patients were classified as complete responders to this treatment and their MST was 19.5 months When this was compared with that of partial responders (MST: 11 7months), it was statistically significant (p=0.0003). Twenty nine patients of stage IIIA showed a better overall survival rate (1yr 63.3$\%$, 2yr 16.8$\%$) than IIIB patients (1yr 43.3$\%$, 2yr 3.6$\%$), which was also statistically significant (p=0.003). Patients with adenocarcinoma showed a better survival rate (1yr 64.3$\%$, 2yr 21.4$\%$) than that of squamous cell counterpart (1yr 49.4$\%$, 2yr 7.4$\%$), although this was not significant statistically (p=0.61). Two patients developed fatal radiation-induced pneumonia right after the completion of the treatment which progressed rapidly and they all died within 2 months. One patient developed radiation-induced fibrosis after 13 months. He refused further treatment and died soon after the development of fibrosis. Conclusion : Among locally advanced NSCLC, hyperfractionated radiotherapy was effective on stage IIIA patients by increasing MST with acceptable toxicities. Acute radiation-induced pneumonia should be carefully monitored and must be avoided during or after this treatment.
