Background: The inhibitory effect of Rodgersia podophylla root extract on melanin production has been reported, however, the study on the optimal extraction conditions that increase melanin inhibitory activity has not yet been performed. Methods and Results: In this study, we compared the melanin inhibitory activity of R. podophylla root extract obtained through different preprocessing and extraction methods. The melanin inhibitory activity was examined using Melan-A melanocytes. The results indicated that the inhibitory activity of R. podophylla roots collected in August was higher than that of the roots collected in May and November. Additionally, non-dried R. podophylla roots exhibited higher activity than dried roots, and the stirring extract was more active than the ultrasonic extract. Conclusions: Collection of R. podophylla root when the temperature is high, without drying, and stirring extraction are considered to be the optimal extraction conditions for increased melanin inhibitory effect.

Thin labial plate will be resorbed after extraction. Immediate implantation cannot prevent soft and hard tissue loss. Bone graft can be necessary in the immediate implantation after anterior tooth extraction. Slowly-resorbed or non-resorbable bone graft material have many advantages in esthetic area because of maintenance of volume. The clinicians should select the adequate cases of immediate implantation according to the indication and contraindication.

It is suggested that the light extraction efficiency of the display device can be improved by adoption of periodic array of sub-wavelength scale structures. The relief of the total reflection has been investigated using the rigorous coupled wave analysis (RCWA). Various shape of the sub-wavelength scale structure allowed to have non vanishing transmittance for the light rays with the incident angle bigger than the critical angle.

Objective: Molecular pathology tests are often carried for clinicopathological diagnosis and pathologists have established large collections of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue (FFPE) banks. However, extraction of DNA from FFPE is a laborious and challenging for researchers in clinical laboratories. The aim of this study was to compare two widely used DNA extraction methods: using a QIAamp DNA FFPE kit from Qiagen and a Cobas Sample Preparation Kit from Roche, and evaluated the effect of the DNA quality on molecular diagnostics. Methods: DNA from FFPE non-small cell lung carcinoma tissues including biopsy and surgical specimens was extracted with both QIAamp DNA FFPE and Cobas Sample Preparation Kits and EGFR mutations of non-small cell lung carcinomas were detected by real-time quantitative PCR using the extracted DNA. Results and Conclusion: Our results showed that DNA extracted by QIAamp and Cobas methods were both suitable to detect downstream EGFR mutation in surgical specimens. Howover, Cobas method could yield more DNA from biopsy specimens, and gain much better EGFR mutation results.

Hydrocarbons have been successfully used as a chemical marker in order to identify irradiated from non-irradiated foods. The method for determining hydrocarbons consists of extraction of fats, followed by separation of hydrocarbons by florisil column chromatography, and then identification of hydrocarbons by GC/MS. Currently, solvent extraction method for fats has certain limitations with regard to extraction time and solvent consumption. Commercial hams and sausage were irradiated at 0 and 5 kGy, and the efficiency of microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) and conventional solvent extraction (CSE) methods on the extraction of radiation-induced hydrocarbons from the meat products was compared. Significant levels of hydrocarbons, mainly composed of 1,7-hexadecadien, 1,7,10-hexadecatriene, and 6,9-heptadecadiene, were detected in the extracts from irradiated hams and sausages by both CSE and MAE methods. Both methods were acceptable in extracting hydrocarbons from samples, but MAE method required apparently reduced amounts of solvent from 150 (CSE) to 50 mL and reduced extraction time from 23 (CSE) to 5 min.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to examine the patient- and treatment-related etiologic factors of external root resorption. Materials and Methods : This study consisted of 163 patients who had completed orthodontic treatments and taken the pre- and post-treatment panoramic and lateral cephalometric radiographs. The length of tooth was measured from the tooth apex to the incisal edge or cusp tip on the panoramic radiograph. Overbite and overjet were measured from the pre- and post-treatment lateral cephalometric radiographs. The root resorption of each tooth and the factors of malocclusion were analyzed with an analysis of variance. A paired t test was performed to compare the mean amount of root resorption between male and female, between extraction and non-extraction cases, and between surgery and non-surgery groups. Correlation coefficients were measured to assess the relationship between the amount of root resorption and the age in which the orthodontic treatment started, the degree of changes in overbite and overjet, and the duration of treatment. Results : Maxillary central incisor was the most resorbed tooth, followed by the maxillary lateral incisor, the mandibular central incisor, and the mandibular lateral incisor. The history of tooth extraction was significantly associated with the root resorption. The duration of orthodontic treatment was positively correlated with the amount of root resorption. Conclusion : These findings show that orthodontic treatment should be carefully performed in patients who need the treatment for a long period and with a pre-treatment extraction of teeth.

We will introduce a new web-based knowledge management system in progress, in which XML-based web information extraction and our structuring knowledge technologies are combined using ontology-based natural language processing. Our aim is to provide efficient access to heterogeneous information on the web, enabling users to use a wide range of textual and non textual resources, such as newspapers and databases, effortlessly to accelerate knowledge acquisition from such knowledge sources. In order to achieve the efficient knowledge management, we propose at first an XML-based Web information extraction which contains a sophisticated control language to extract data from Web pages. With using standard XML Technologies in the system, our approach can make extracting information easy because of a) detaching rules from processing, b) restricting target for processing, c) Interactive operations for developing extracting rules. Then we propose a structuring knowledge system which includes, 1) automatic term recognition, 2) domain oriented automatic term clustering, 3) similarity-based document retrieval, 4) real-time document clustering, and 5) visualization. The system supports integrating different types of databases (textual and non textual) and retrieving different types of information simultaneously. Through further explanation to the specification and the implementation technique of the system, we will demonstrate how the system can accelerate knowledge acquisition on the Web even for novice users of the field.

Keyphrase extraction is one of fundamental natural language processing (NLP) tools to improve many text-mining applications such as document summarization and clustering. In this paper, we propose to use two novel techniques on the top of the state-of-the-art keyphrase extraction methods. First is the anti-patterns that aim to recognize non-keyphrase candidates. The state-of-the-art methods often used the rich feature set to identify keyphrases while those rich feature set cover only some of all keyphrases because keyphrases share very few similar patterns and stylistic features while non-keyphrase candidates often share many similar patterns and stylistic features. Second one is to use the dependency graph instead of the word co-occurrence graph that could not connect two words that are syntactically related and placed far from each other in a sentence while the dependency graph can do so. In experiments, we have compared the performances with different settings of the graphs (co-occurrence and dependency), and with the existing method results. Finally, we discovered that the combination method of dependency graph and anti-patterns outperform the state-of-the-art performances.

ART2 네트워크는 프레임에 존재하는 이동 물체의 중심점을 탐지할 수 있다. 그리고, 이전 프레임에서 탐지되어진 물체의 정보를 이용하여 물체의 이동궤적을 추적할 수 있다. 제안하는 방법으로 실험한 결과 비강체(non­rigid)형태 운동을 하는 보행자를 탐지하고 그 궤적 추적에 대한 실시간 시스템 구성의 가능성에 대하여 알 수 있었다.
