Aminoglycosides are frequently used antibiotics in children. The multiple daily dosing (MDD) in infants and children is twice or three times daily depending on age. Recent studies in adults have shown that once daily dosing (ODD) maximizes the bactericidal activity and might minimize the toxicity of antibiotics. So, I reviewed many studies about efficacy, toxicity and cost effectiveness of ODD of aminoglycosides in children. Most studies suggest that ODD compared with MDD of aminoglycosides is theoretically more efficacious and has no higher toxicity in infants and children. But, the total number of patients included in the studies is not large. Multi-center, controlled prospective studies are required in larger numbers of infants and children to determine the efficacy and safety of the ODD regimen in children before ODD of aminoglycosides can be recommended for routine use.

Statistical distributions are very useful in describing wind speed characteristics and in predicting wind power potential of a specified region. Although the Weibull distribution is the most popular one in wind energy literature, it does not seem to be able to perfectly fit all the investigated wind speed data in nature. Thus, many studies are still being conducted to find flexible distribution for modelling wind speed data. In this study, we propose a new Odd-Burr Rayleigh distribution for wind speed characterization. The Odd-Burr Rayleigh distribution with two shape parameters is flexible enough to model different shapes of wind speed data and thus it can be an alternative wind speed distribution for the assessment of wind energy potential. Therefore, suitability of the Odd-Burr Rayleigh distribution is investigated on real wind speed data taken from different regions in the South Africa. Numerical results of the conducted analysis confirm that the new Odd-Burr Rayleigh distribution is suitable for modelling most of the considered real wind speed cases and it also can be used for predicting wind power.

The demand for the laptop computer has been increased day by day and most of users ask quiet computer and devices to work in comfortable environment. One of the devices which generate acoustic noise is an external ODD. Unlike the internal ODD, the external ODD is easy to emit noise because it runs outside of the computer and also it is packed with a thin plastic covers. As the disk rotates, vortex flow is generated inside of the cavity due to various and complicated mold parts of the cover. In addition, there is a gap between the disk tray and the upper/lower cases, through which the air flows as well as the noise leaks. In this study, we have proposed how to reduce the acoustic noise of an external ODD using numerical and experimental analysis. The pressure fluctuations and turbulent kinetic energy distributions are calculated for the developed model. The results show that the sound pressure level is reduced by 2.3dB through simple modifications of ribs of the top cover, which remove or suppress flow instabilities inside of the cavity.

Purpose: This study investigated the factors associated with suicidal ideation in the Korean Echo Generation using 2012 Korea Health Panel Data. Methods: The 2012 Korea Health Panel Data were collected from February 2012 to July 2012 and included 2,303 people who responded to a question asking whether they had experienced suicidal ideation. The data were analyzed by chi-square and multiple logistic regression test using SPSS 22.0. Results: The rate of suicidal ideation was 4.2% in the Echo Generation. Factors associated with suicidal ideation in the Echo Generation revealed that the following variables increased the rate of suicidal ideation: sex(odd ratio: 2.39, CI: 1.39-4.09), education(odd ratio: 1.95, CI: 1.08-3.52), depression(odd ratio: 12.06, CI: 6.92-21.03), frustrating experience(odd ratio: 2.52, CI: 1.22-5.20), anxiety about the future(odd ratio: 14.58, CI: 3.20-66.41), self-rated health status(odd ratio: 2.39, CI: 1.39-4.09 and odd ratio: 6.41, CI 2.87-14.33). Conclusion: This study provides a preliminary examination of the factors associated with suicidal ideation in the Echo Generation. A more careful examination may be warranted.

In this thesis, we investigate the psychosocial variables within the family environments of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder with (ADHD+CD/ODD) or without (ADHD) externalizing symptoms. The subjects in this research were 86 boys and girls(aged range 6 to 14 years) consisted of 20 ADHD, 22 comorbid ADHD(ADHD+CD/ODD) and 44 normal control group(NC). We have collected data on children and their mothers. The psychosocial variables included in the analysis are socioeconomic status, parent's educational level, life stress event, and the rate of psychiatric disorders in relatives. The self-reported questionnaires marital discord(MAS), parenting stress(PSI), and parenting attitute(MBRI) completed by mothers. The results indicated that ADHD+CD/ODD is supposed to have higher level of family adversity suggested by the lower SES, lower parental educational level, higher life stress events, and more psychic disorders in relatives compared with ADHD or normal control group. In MAS, ADHD+CD/ODD group has significantly the lowest scores on each factor of the measure of marital adjustment. Parents of ADHD+CD/ODD are much more likely to have positive parenting stress when compared with the parents of ADHD. Especially, mothers of ADHD+CD/ODD have the lowest tendency in the mean score on affective, accepted attitudd. In an inapropriate parenting attitude perceived by children, father of ADHD+CD/ODD have the most negative, contradictory attitude and mothers of ADHD+CD/ODD have the most restrictive, negative and contradictory attitude.

좀처럼 침체의 늪을 벗어나지 못하고 있는 국내 애니메이션 업계에 지난 10월 반가운 소식이 전해졌다. 우리나라 삼지애니메이션이 기획한 3D 애니메이션‘ODD Family’의 국제 공동제작 발표회가 프랑스 칸에서 성공적으로 개최됐다는 것이다. 삼지애니메이션과 프랑스의 티문애니메이션이 공동 개최한 이번 제작 발표회에는 TF1, ZDF 등 유럽 방송사, 미국 배급사 MGM, 한국 공중파 3사 등이 참여해TV용 3D 시트콤 ODD Family에 큰 관심을 나타냈다. 특히 유럽 최대의 민영방송사인 TF1은 20억원에 이르는 프랑스내 방송판권료를 지불하기로 해 향후 ODD 패밀리의 글로벌배급망 확보에 한층 가속도가 붙을 전망이다. ODD Family의 제작사 삼지애니메이션의 김수훈 사장을 만나 그간의 과정과 계획을 들어봤다.

Odd networks were introduced in the context of graph theory. However, their potential as fault-tolerant multiprocessor networks has been shown. Broadcasting is one of the most important communication primitives used in multiprocessor networks. In this letter, we introduce efficient one-to-all broadcasting schemes of odd networks for one-port and all-port models. We show the broadcasting time of the former is 2d-2 and that of the latter is d-1. The total time steps taken by the proposed algorithms are optimal.

We prove a Guillemin-Sternberg geometric quantization formula for circle action on odd dimensional $spin^c$-manifolds. We prove two Kostant type formulas in this case. As a corollary, we get a cutting formula for the odd spinc quantization.

In this paper, we propose the adaptive Odd/Even Multi-shell Median Filter(adaptive O/E MMF) to improve the defect that Modified Multi-shell Median Filter(MMMF) can not recover missing lines of vertical and cross direction. This filter uses odd/even multi-shells and new proposed threshold strategy The performance of the proposed filter is evaluated over image 'airfield 'by using MATLAB. As the proposed threshold strategy eliminate the number of redundant replacement, it suppresses impulse noise and recovers missing lines.

This paper aims to analyze the PTG module for the finite-dimensional odd Contact superalgebra over a field of prime characteristic by using the method of Hu and Shen's mixed product realization. The general acting law in odd Contact superalgebra is obtained. In addition, the structure and irreducibility of graded module for odd Contact superalgebra are discussed.
