This paper is to investigate the effect of poor quality aggregate source used in Korea on the mixture proportion and strength development of the high strength concrete fixed at 450 kg/m3 of cement contents. For aggregate kinds, good quality crushed stone from KS certified manufacturer and low quality crushed stone from non certified construction field are used. For fine aggregates, river sand, land sand, sea sand and mixed sand are also used. It is found that the use of low quality aggregates resulted in an increase of water demand considerably due to poor gradation of aggregate and excessive fine particles. Test results indicate that the use of low quality aggregate also decreases the compressive strength compared with that of good quality aggregate.

임플란트의 성공은 식립 후의 초기 안정성 (Initial stability)의 결과가 중요한 영향을 준다. 이 연구의 목적은 연질 골에서 두 종류의 테이퍼 형태 임플란트가 임플란트의 디자인과 self-tapping blade의 유무에 따라서 초기 안정성에 주는 영향을 알아보는 것이다. Self-tapping blade를 가지고 있는 것과 가지고 있지 않은 두 종류의 테이퍼 형태 임플란트가 사용되었다. Solid Rigid Polyurethane Form으로 연질 골 상태인 D4 골 모형을 재현하였다. 임플란트 고정체를 식립하면서 초기 안정성 값을 기록하고, 식립 직후 implant stability quotient (ISQ)을 측정하여 Resonance frequency Analysis (RFA)를 평가하였다. 마지막으로 임플란트가 식립된 모형골을 만능 시험기에 부착하여 장축 방향으로의 pull-out force를 측정하였다. 초기 안정성 값과 최대 pull-out torque 값은 non self-tapping implants가 self-tapping group에 비하여 통계학적으로 유의하게 큰 평균값을 나타냈다 (P = 0.008). 공진 주파수 분석 결과인 ISQ 값은 거의 비슷한 평균값을 보였으면 통계학적으로 차이가 없었다. 각 임플란트 시스템에서 식립 토크와 pull-out 최대 토크 그리고 공진 주파수 간에는 상관관계를 나타내지 않았다. Non self-tapping 임플란트의 높은 식립 토크는 임상적으로 우수한 초기 안정성을 의미한다. 결론적으로 연질 골에서 self-tapping blade가 없는 임플란트가 있는 것 보다 더 우수한 초기 안정성을 보였다.

비소세포폐암의 술후 생존률의 향상을 위하여 1989년 1월부터 1995년 12월까지 고신대학교 복음병원 흉부외과에서 수술시행한 환자중에 술후 제1병기 비소세포폐암으로 진단된 68명의 환자를 대상으로 Kaplan-Meier 방법에 의해 5년 생존률을 구하고 임상 및 병리조직학적인자, 즉 연령, 성별, 수술방법, 조직학적 유형, T인자, 종양세포에 의한 혈관침습 유무, 그리고 전이 억제 유전자로 알려진 nm23 단백의 발현정도와 생존율과의 관계에 대한 분석을 시행하였다. 평균 생존기간은 58$\pm$3개월이었고 5년 생존률은 58.9%였다. 종양에 의한 혈관침습이 있는 경우와 저분화성 편평세포폐암인 경우에 예후가 불량한 것으로 나타났고, T1이 T2에 비해 또 nm23 단백의 발현은 고도발현 군이 저도발현 군에 비해 각각 5년 생존률이 높았으나 통계학적인 유의성은 없었다. T인자, 혈관침습, 편평세포암종에서 분화도, 그리고 nm23 단백의 발현들 상호간에 연관성도 없었다. 제1병기 비소세포폐암의 술후 예후인자는 종양세포에 의한 혈관침습과 편평세포 폐암종에서 종양세포의 분화도로 나타났고, nm23 단백 발현정도의 예후인자로서 역할에 대해서는 nm23 단백 발현 정도와 타 장기로의 전이와의 상관성 등 향후 추가적인 연구가 보완되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

Self-efficacy has been extensively evaluated, but no studies have investigated the effect of self-efficacy on the self-reliance of women in poor-households economic productivity. This study analyzes self-efficacy as a personal factor, learning processes, and social support as an environmental factor towards the achievement of self-reliance in women from poor-households in productive economy businesses. Despite the dominant logic of this scheme, there is a need for field-based data regarding whether the variable really supports the sustainable empowerment of poor-households women. This study used the quantitative method through the survey technique. The samples of this study included 250 people collected from five regencies in Indonesia by using a multiple-stage random sampling. The data were analyzed with structural equation modeling. The results show that social support has a significant positive impact on the learning process; social support has a direct negative impact on self-efficacy. The learning process has a direct positive influence on self-efficacy, while social support has a non-significant impact on self-reliance. The learning process has a direct influence on self-reliance. Social support and the learning process both have significant positive impact on self-efficacy. Social support, learning process, and self-efficacy simultaneously have a positive impact on self-reliance in productive economic activities.

Loss and damage have become a vital contemporary issue in climate change studies and actions in developing countries. However, studies are scant on this in the fisheries sector around the world. In Bangladesh, there is no study on the loss and damage in fisheries dependent communities. This study assesses economic and non-economic loss and damage to coastal shrimp farms due to cyclone Bulbul in Gabura Union of Shyamnagar Upazila, Satkhira district, using a mixed method approach. Results show that all shrimp farms' dependent communities are affected by cyclone Bulbul to some extent. About 14%, 57%, and 29% of the farms were totally, heavily and moderately damaged due to farm inundation and dyke damage. The estimated mean loss and damage per shrimp farm was worth USD 4,633. Around 31% and 72% of the farms' fencing nets and traps were lost, which was worth USD 333 per farm. There were also loss and damage to other resources such as houses, solar panels, livestock and agricultural crops where the estimated mean loss and damage per household was worth USD 3,170. This study reported that the rich shrimp farmers encountered proportionately more economic loss and damage than their poor counterparts. However, this does not mean that the poor suffered less. The current study found a range of non-economic loss and damage in different aspects of the shrimp farmers' household members such as unbearable mental pain, deterioration of health, physical injuries, disabilities, etc. and access to services (e.g., inadequate food, lack of safe drinking water, lack of medical facilities, disruption of education systems), social infrastructure (e.g., damage of roads and markets) and disturbance of cultural functions. The findings suggest that urgent short- and long-term actions may be taken to save the aquaculture farms and dependent livelihoods from economic and non-economic loss and damage to cyclones in future.

In this paper, we propose a non-edge following method for linear programs. Unlike alledged poor performance of algorithms of this type, this method performs well at least with 25 randomly generated problems. This method is comparable to Rosen's gradient projection method as applied to the dual formulation. The latter is of general purpose, and no implementation rules are available for linear program applications. This paper suggests ways of finding improving dual feasible directions, and of allowing to move across the extreme faces of a higher dimension polyhedron. Rather simple computational rules are provided for projection operations needed at each iteration.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to examine the association between depression and poor oral health in Korean elderly using Korean version of the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) for assessment of depressive symptoms. Methods: This study used the data from Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES VI-2). The study included 1,454 elderly Korean aged over 65. Variables included demographic characteristics (gender, age), socioeconomic factor (income, education), systemic diseases, oral health related factor (tooth brush, dental products), health related factor (alcohol drinking, smoking), and depression. Logistic regression analysis was used as sequential models. Effects were quantified as odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). Results: From frequency analysis, being female, primary school or less, non-alcohol drinking, poor oral health were significantly related to depression. In the multiple logistic regression model, depression was significantly associated with poor oral health (OR=1.96, CI=1.15-3.53) after adjustment for other covariates including demographic characteristics, socioeconomic factor, systemic diseases, oral health related factor, and health related factor (OR=1.91, CI=1.13-3.27). Conclusions: Depression had an influence on the poor oral health after adjustment as confounding variable in the elderly. It should be focused on the health promotion for the elderly vulnerable to depression and poor oral health. The development of the mental health and oral health should be established.

Objectives : The aim of study was to estimate the prevalence of poor sleep quality and depressive symptoms as well as to examine the moderating effect of positive psychology on the relationship between poor sleep quality and depressive symptoms among Korean university students. Methods : A total of 2,338(1,071 male and 1,267 female) university students at seven universities of four cities in Korea were randomly selected to participate in a survey. Data were collected by self-report questionnaires, including Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI), Beck Depression Inventory(BDI), Satisfaction with Life Scale(SWLS), Positive Psychotherapy Inventory(PPTI), and sociodemographic characteristics. Results : The prevalence was 44.8% for poor sleep quality and 14.4% for depressive symptoms among Korean university students. By moderated regression analysis, the results showed that poor sleep quality(${\beta}=0.453$, p<0.001) aggravated depressive symptoms of university students, and life satisfaction(${\beta}=-0.087$, p<0.001) and happiness(${\beta}=-0.145$, p<0.001) respectively buffered the negative effect of the poor sleep quality on depressive symptoms. Conclusion : This study showed very high prevalence of poor sleep quality and depressive symptoms among Korean university students. Overall, these findings demonstrates that positive psychology can be effective in the enhancement of subjective and psychological well-being and may help to reduce depressive symptom levels. In the context of public health, positive psychology can be used as preventive, easily accessible and non-stigmatizing tools.

The postal or group questionnaire survey was conducted to inquire into the cause of collision between fishing vessel and non-fishing vessel targeting fishing vessel personnel(FVP), non-NFVP and a person involved in a marine accident. As a result, we could verify the root cause of collision, a negligence of lookout which noted overwork for FVP and careless for non-FVP. The cause of collision by inappropriate avoid action was poor communications for FVP and non-FVP. To reduce collision, we need to be trained to take a sharp lookout, a radio communication by VHF and the collision avoidance actions by early and substantial action to keep well clear. The results are expected to contribute for the reduction of collision and victims.
