  • 신체조성과 혈관탄성의 변화로 인한 심혈관질환과 근감소로 인한 낙상의 발생은 노화로 인하여 가장 빈번하게 발생하게 된다. 그래서 탄력밴드 저항운동은 노인들이 쉽고 안전하게 수행할 수 있으며 신체조성과 혈관탄성에 긍정적인 영향을 미칠 수 있을 것이다. 따라서 본 연구는 고령여성(>65 years)을 대상으로 12주간 저항운동을 실시한 후 신체조성, 혈관탄성, 낙상위험도지수에 어떠한 효과를 미치는지에 대하여 살펴보았다. 저항운동은 주3회 한 회당 60분으로 구성되었고 운동 강도는 Borg의 운동자각도(6 - 20)에서 11-14로 설정되었다. 신체조성에 해당하는 체중, 근육량, 체지방률, BMI(Body Mass Index)와, 혈관탄성(맥파속도 (Pulse wave velocity (PWV)), 낙상위험도지수(Risk of falling)는 훈련 전과 후에 측정이 되었다. 연구 결과 신체조성에서 운동집단의 체중(p=.003), BMI(p=.002), PWV(p=.017), 낙상위험도지수(p=.037)는 유의하게 감소하였으나 통제집단에서 체중(p=.009), BMI(p=.009)는 유의하게 증가하였다. 따라서 여성노인들은 탄력밴드 저항운동을 통해 체중과 BMI를 감소시키고 혈관탄성에 긍정적인 효과를 얻게 되었다. 그리하여 탄력밴드 저항운동은 노인들의 대사증후군, 심혈관질환, 낙상사고의 발생률을 낮출 수 있는 매우 효과적인 운동이라 할 수 있다.

  • Maxillary sinus squamous cell carcinoma is a relatively rare disease, comprising only 3% of malignant diseases of head and neck. As the growth rate is high and its prognosis is poor compared to others, the 5-year survival rate of maxillary sinus squamous cell carcinoma(MSSCC) is 23.4-49%. We introduce two rare clinical cases of squamous cell carcinoma originated from maxillary sinus of which symptoms include toothache and gingival swelling. On clinical examinations of both patients, deep periodontal pockets on upper right posterior teeth were detected. On panoramic images, the bony destruction of the maxillary sinus and its surrounding structures were not obvious and only alveolar bone loss was noted. It is difficult to diagnose MSSCC at an early stage due to symptoms of tooth pain and gingival swelling that are similar to that of periodontal diseases. However, if the symptoms do not improve after routine treatment of upper teeth, dentists should bear in mind of underlying malignant mass as differential diagnosis, thus early detection of the lethal disease. The aim of this study is to caution dental practitioners that malignancies have a potential to mimic periodontal diseases by introducing two cases of maxillary sinus squamous cell carcinoma presented as periodontitis.

  • 본 연구에서는 인계 난연제가 첨가된 연질 폴리우레탄 폼을 합성하여 난연제의 종류에 따른 난연성능 변화를 고찰하였다. 난연제로는 Tetramethylene bis(orthophosphorylurea) [TBPU]와 Phosphinyl alkylphosphate ester [CR-530], Resorcinol bis diphenylphosphate [RDP], Triethyl phosphate [TEP] 등을 사용하였다. 열중량분석기를 사용하여 난연제에 따른 폴리우레탄 폼의 열분해거동을 알아보았으며, 콘칼로리미터를 이용하여 열방출량, 질량감소율, 연기발생량, CO 및 $CO_2$ 발생량 등을 측정하였다. TBPU가 첨가된 폴리우레탄 폼은 난연제가 첨가되지 않은 폴리우레탄 폼에 비하여 낮은 온도에서 분해가 시작되었으나 고온에서는 많은 양의 char를 생성하였다. 콘칼로리미터 시험 결과 TBPU가 첨가될 경우 평균 발열량, 최대 발열량, 유효연소열, 질량감소율, CO 및 $CO_2$ 발생량이 감소하였고 다른 난연제에 비하여 낮은 값을 나타내어 우수한 난연성능을 나타냄을 알 수 있었다.

  • We assayed the effects of simulated acid rain on the mass loss, $CO_2$ evolution, dehydrogenase activity, and microbial biomass-C of decomposing Sorbus alnifolia leaf litter at the microcosm. The dilute sulfuric acid solution composed the simulated acid rain, and the microcosm decomposition experiment was performed at 23$^{\circ}C$ and 40% humidity. During the early decomposition stage, decomposition rate of S. alnifolia leaf litter, and microbial biomass, $CO_2$ evolution and dehydrogenase activity were inhibited at a lower pH; however, during the late decomposition stage, these characteristics were not affected by pH level. The fungal component of the microbial community was conspicuous at lower pH levels and at the late decomposition stage. Conversely, the bacterial community was most evident during the initial decomposition phase and was especially dominant at higher pH levels. These changes in microbial community structure resulting from changes in microcosm acidity suggest that pH is an important aspect in the maintenance of the decomposition process. Litter decomposition exhibited a positive, linear relationship with both microbial respiration and microbial biomass. Fungal biomass exhibited a significant, positive relationship with $CO_2$ evolution from the decaying litter. Acid rain had a significant effect on microbial biomass and microbial community structure according to acid tolerance of each microbial species. Fungal biomass and decomposition activities were not only more important at a low pH than at a high pH but also fungal activity, such as $CO_2$ evolution, was closely related with litter decomposition rate.

  • The vacuum drying process for drying of paper in current transformers was modeled with an aim to develop an understanding of the drying mechanism involved and also to predict the water collection rates. A molecular as well as macroscopic approach was adopted for the prediction of drying rate. Ficks law of diffusion was adopted for the prediction of drying rates at macroscopic levels. A steady state and dynamic mass transfer simulation was performed. The bulk diffusion coefficient was calculated using weight loss experiments. The accuracy of the solution was a strong function of the relation developed to determine the equilibrium moisture content. The actually observed diffusion constant was also important to predict the plant water removal rate. Thermo gravimetric studies helped in calculating the diffusion constant. In addition, simulation studies revealed the formation of perpetual moisture traps (loops) inside the CT. These loops can only be broken by changing the temperature or pressure of the system. The change in temperature or pressure changes the kinetic or potential energy of the effusing vapor resulting in breaking of the loop. The cycle was developed based on this mechanism. Additionally, simulation studies also revealed that the actual mechanism of moisture diffusion in CT's is by surface jumps initiated by surface diffusion balanced against the surrounding pressure. Every subsequent step in the cycle was to break such loops. The effect of change in drying time on the electrical properties of the insulation was also assessed. The measurement of capacitance at the rated voltage and one third of the rated voltage demonstrated that the capacitance change is within the acceptance limit. Hence, the new cycle does not affect the electrical performance of the CT.

  • Objectives : The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect the of treatment in obesity clinic in east-west collaboration center, furthermore to search for how to join and improve east medicine and west medicine more closely. Methods : 37 patients were classified into four groups by Body Mass Index(BMI); normal, overweight, 1st obesity and 2nd obesity groups. Weight, BMI, body fat rate and abdominal fat rate were compared in each group by paired t-test. Results & Conclusions : In distribution of sex, male were 10(27%), female were 27(73%). Mean age was $34{\pm}13$ and the patients in twenties un the most. Among four groups, the number of End obesity groups was the most. Most patients had a preference for western medication and ear acupuncture therapy. In general we could find the correlation between the effect of obesity treatment and the degree of obesity. The more the obesity degree was, the more weight loss was.

  • 고분자전해질막 연료전지의 반응물인 수소와 산소는 기체 상태이므로, 반응물이 원활히 전달될수록 작동 전압의 손실을 줄일 수 있다. 높은 전류밀도 영역에서 산소 물질 전달이 전압 손실을 좌우하므로, 환원극 유로의 형상 변경에 대한 연구들이 진행되어 왔다. 환원극 유로 형상 중에서 유로를 막는 블록은 반응물을 다공성 매질인 기체확산층으로 강제 대류 하도록 사용되었다. 본 연구에서는 간단한 단 채널의 연료전지 모델에 블록을 배치하였다. 전산 유체역학을 사용하였고, 공기 공급 유량을 달리하였을 때 블록으로 인한 강제 대류 효과가 전압-전류 곡선과 국부 전류 밀도에 대한 영향을 연구하였다. 기체확산층으로의 강제 대류 현상을 통하여 적은 공기 공급 유량으로도 높은 전류 밀도를 얻을 수 있었다. 다수의 블록을 직렬로 배치한 경우에 1개의 블록만 배치한 것보다 강제 대류 효과를 증가시켜 높은 전류밀도를 얻을 수 있었다.
