With the development of the realm of software and its getting the limelight, technical-specialized high schools are trying hard to improve their students' ability in terms of the realm of software in the latest. This study compared and analyzed targeting for students who are learning Java program how much the type of personality of learners influences on the improvement of the resilience. As a result, the learners having introverted personality didn't have a meaningful result on the improvement of the resilience which is necessary for the programming learning. Vice versa, the learners having extroverted personality had a meaningful result on the improvement of the resilience through that personality. Through this research, we can seek after the way for the improvement of learners' resilience which mutually benefits learners having extroverted personality or introverted personality.

Background: This study aimed to evaluate the mechanical, biological, and esthetic stability of a zirconium abutment according to evidence-based dentistry. Main text: An electronic search was performed. Domestic studies were found using the keywords "zirconia abutments" and "zirconium abutment" in KMbase, KoreaMed, and the National Assembly Library, and international studies were found using the same keywords in PubMed. All identified studies were divided by evidence level from the viewpoint of the research type utilizing the evidence-based review manual. A total of 102 domestic studies (with Korean language) were found, and 9 of these studies were selected. In these nine studies, 3 had evidence level 3 and 6 had evidence level 4. A total of 97 international studies (with English language) were found, and 19 were selected. Among these 19 studies, 5 had evidence level 2 and 7 had evidence level 3, whereas the remainder had evidence level 4. According to the studies, zirconium abutments are mechanically, biologically, and esthetically stable, but the evidence level of these studies is low, and the follow-up duration is no longer than 5 years. Conclusions: All examined studies verified the mechanical stability of zirconium abutments for a period no longer than 5 years. Therefore, a long-term clinical observation is needed. Zirconium abutments are thought to be biologically stable, but they are not superior to titanium abutments. As the esthetic stability of such abutments had a low evidence level in the studies that examined here, a much higher evidence level is needed.

To establish a culture system with enhanced cellular nutrition, we investigated the effects of light quality (blue, 450 nm; yellow, 590 nm; and red, 630 nm) of a light-emitting diode (LED) on the biochemical composition of Tetraselmis suecica and T. tetrathele. The protein content of both species was higher (42-69%) than the content of other biochemical substances under all wavelengths. Carbohydrate, protein, and lipid contents were higher under the yellow wavelength, which showed a low growth rate, than those under other wavelengths. The contents of all biochemical substances were low under the red wavelength, which showed a high growth rate. These results indicated that protein synthesis occurs in response to decreased cell division rate, while lipid and carbohydrate synthesis occurs owing to altered chemical composition and enzymatic activity. Therefore, we suggested a two-phase LED culture system, which emitted red LED during the early-middle exponential phase and yellow LED during the late exponential and stationary phases, to increase the yield of useful biochemical substances of T. suecica and T. tetrathele.

Photosynthetic dinoflagellates contain a water-soluble, light-harvesting antenna called the peridinin-chlorophyll-protein (PCP) complex, which has an apoprotein with no sequence similarity to other known proteins. There are two forms of PCP apoproteins; the 15-kDa short form and the 32- to 35­kDa long form. The present study describes the PCP protein and its cDNA from Alexandrium tamarense. A cDNA library was constructed from mRNA isolated from A. tamarense. The complete PCP cDNA was generated by reverse-transcription coupled to polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), together with rapid-amplification of cDNA ends (RACE). The A. tamarense PCP cDNA encoded a 55-amino acid signal peptide and a 313-amino acid mature protein with a calculated mass of 32 kDa, which corresponded to that of the long form of PCP. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the sequence of A. tamarense PCP did not cluster with the short-form PCPs, to which it was only about $55\%$ identical, but which were $79-83\%$ identical to other long-form PCPs. The deduced amino acid sequence of A. tamarense PCP contains an internal duplication, which suggests the possibility that long-form PCPs arose by gene duplication or by the fusion of genes encoding the short form. The abundance of PCP mRNA changed substantially in response to different light conditions, indicating the possible existence of a photo-acclimation response in A. tamarense.

Pseudomonas fluorescens KLR101 was found to be capable of producing polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) using various sugars and fatty acids with carbon numbers ranging from 2 to 6. The PHA granules consisted mainly of a poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) homopolymer and/or poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) copolymer. Genomic DNA of P. fluorescens was fractionated and cloned into a lambda library, in which a 5.8-kb fragment that hybridized to a heterologous phaC probe from Ralstonia eutropha was identified. In vivo expression in Klebsiella aerogenes KC2671 (pUMS), restriction mapping, Southern hybridization experiments, and sequencing data revealed that PHA biosynthesis by P. fluorescens relied upon a polypeptide encoded by a 1,683-bp non-operonal ORF, which was preceded by a possible -24/-12 promoter and highly similar to DNA sequences of a gene encoding PHA synthase in the genus Pseudomonas. In vivo expression of the putative PHA synthase gene ($phaC_{Pf}$) in a recombinant Escherichia coli strain was investigated by using glucose and decanoate as substrates. E. coli (${phaC_{Pf}}^+$, pUMS) grown in medium containing glucose accumulated PHA granules consisting mainly of 3-hydroxybutyrate, whereas only a trace amount of 3-hydroxydecanoate was detected from an E. coli fadR mutant (${phaC_{Pf}}^+$) grown in medium containing decanoate. In vitro enzymatic assessment experiments showed that 3-hydroxybutyryl-CoA was efficiently used as a substrate of purified $PhaC_{Pf}$, suggesting that the putative PHA synthase of P. fluorescens utilizes mainly short-chain-length PHA precursors as a substrate.

Purpose: The main question is systematic review of the published in Korea and foreign countries on warming therapy for surgical patients. Methods: The researchers searched at Medline, CINAHL, KERIS, Adult Nursing Association, Korean Society of Nursing Science, Korean Academy of fundamentals of Nursing, and National Assembly Library web site for the published on warming therapy for surgical patients from 1980 to 2008. Words for search were operation/surgery, warming, operation/surgery and warming. Studies were included randomized controlled trial, and there were no restrictions regarding operative phase and outcome measures. Results: 36 published researches that met the criteria were mostly published in foreign countries between 2000 and 2008 and focused on surgery with general anesthesia. Sample size ranged from 21 to 60 subjects, age range between 21 and 60 years of age. Thirty different warming therapies were reported, fifty-two different dependent variables. Outcome indicators included active external warming, intra-operative, and body temperature. 'Positive effects' and 'no effects' equaled. The most frequently reported 'positive effects' were body temperature, shivering, and acid-base balance. No effects were more likely to be heart rate, blood pressure, and hemodynamics. Conclusion: Many types of warming therapy, are reported in the literature with little information about the efficacy of each, many different dependant variables were studied. There were no consistent reports as to length of time used for warming procedures. Overall, the effects of warming therapy are inconsistent. And additional research must be down before any particular method of warming can be used with confidence as to its effectiveness. Attention must be made as to the research design, better measurement of the dependent variables. This review may serve as a base.

Objectives: This study reviewed randomized controlled trials (RCTs) investigating the efficacy of herbal medicine on sleep disorders associated with Parkinson's disease and suggests a better research process. Methods: We searched for RCTs for herbal medicine treatments for sleep disorders related to Parkinson's disease on July 31, 2023 using eight databases (PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure [CNKI], the Research Information Service System [RISS], Science ON, the Oriental Medicine Advanced Searching Integrated System [OASIS], and the Korea Citation Index [KCI]). Cochrane's risk of bias tool was used to assess the quality of the RCTs. Results: A total of 16 RCTs met all the inclusion criteria, and in most reports, the treatment group showed a significant improvement in sleep disorders compared to the control group. Total effective rate (TER), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS), TCM Symptom Score (TSS), Parkinson's Disease Sleep Scale (PDSS), etc., were used as evaluation indicators. Conclusion: Herbal medicine is a potential treatment for sleep disorders associated with Parkinson's disease. However, the selected RCTs were of poor quality, and it is necessary to perform more systematic studies.

RFIDs have been used a lot of control systems such as library and security efficiently. Unlawful parking control is one of them and it will bring a lot of merit. Especially, it can be used vehicles. If a vehicle comes to unlawful parking place, reader system read the tag of a vehicle. RFID reader confirm the vehicle and record current time at the same time send information related the vehicle to the server system. After, it can be activated. If the vehicle move from unlawful parking place, RFID reader record departed time. In this paper, we proposed a monitoring system for unlawful parking cars. Especially, it is certain that this proposed modelling is very efficient and correct.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the related factors for psychological crises in Korean middle aged adults. Methods: RISS, KISS, National Assembly Digital Library, CINAHL, and PubMed were searched for relevant articles published until October 3, 2016. Finally, a total of 23 studies were included. Meta-analysis of the studies was conducted using Comprehensive Meta-Analysis 3.0 software to calculate the effect size. Results: The related variables of psychological crisis were categorized into 23 variables and 5 factor groups. The effects size (ES) of the overall defensive variables was -0.28. In the defensive factors, the psychological factor (ES=-0.67), followed by cognitive and behavioral factor (ES=-0.34), physical factor (ES=-0.31), and social relational factor (ES=-0.29) had the greatest effect on psychological crises. The effects size of the overall risk variables was 0.48. In the risk factors, the physical factor (ES=0.61) had the greatest effect on psychological crises, followed by the psychological factor (ES=0.53), and cognitive and behavioral factor (ES=0.10). Conclusion: An intervention program is needed to strengthen the defensive factors and reduce the risk factors for psychological crises of Korean middle aged adults.

The fundamental basis of AI technology is learningable data. Recently, the types and amounts of data collected and produced by the government or private companies are increasing exponentially, however, verified data that can be used for actual machine learning has not yet led to it. This study discusses the conditions that data actually can be used for machine learning should meet, and identifies factors that degrade data quality through case studies. To this end, two representative cases of developing a prediction model using public big data was selected, and data for actual problem solving was collected from the public data portal. Through this, there is a difference from the results of applying valid data screening criteria and post-processing. The ultimate purpose of this study is to argue the importance of data quality management that must be most fundamentally preceded before the development of machine learning technology, which is the core of artificial intelligence, and accumulating valid data.
