This study detected red tide areas using the existing Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer(MODIS) and Geostationary Ocean Color Imager(GOCI), and then compared the results between results of two sensors. The coasts of Jeollanam-do in the South Sea of Korea were set as the study area based on the red tide data which occurred on Aug. 26th, 2012. This study compared the results of sensors to detect red tides by using a satellite. In the results of analyzing MODIS by limiting it as chlorophyll concentration and the sea surface temperature which is considered to have red tides by the existing researches, it was possible to delete considerable amount of errors compared to the case of detecting red tides by using only chlorophyll while still there were differences from the range of red tides actually observed. In the results of GOCI by using empirical algorithm for detecting red tides, currently used by Korea Institute of Ocean Science & Technology(KIOST), it was possible to obtain more detailed results than MODIS. However, there was an area misjudged as red tides due to the influence of clouds. Also both MODIS and GOCI extracted red tides were not actually occurring, which might be because they were not able to perfectly distinguish red tides from turbid water in coastal areas with high turbidity.

Purpose: To evaluate the clinical results between interlocking intramedullary nail with fibular fixation and nail only for treating distal tibiofibular diaphyseal fractures. Materials and Methods: From March 2003 to September 2006, 19 distal tibiofibular fractures were antegrade nailed after anatomical reduction and fixation of fibular fractures, and another 37 fractures fixed with nails only. Average age of patients was 48.6 years. These two groups were compared by VAS (visual analogue scale) & ankle ROM according to degree of comminution and fracture configuration. The statistical analysis was evaluated by t-test. Results: There was no statistical difference between fibular fixation group and non-fixation group in VAS score according to fracture comminution and configuration (p>0.05). However, compared according to fracture configuration, mean ankle eversion of fibular fixation group in oblique fractures was 18.3 degrees, and that of non-fixation group was 12.5 degrees (p<0.05). In addition, mean ankle plantar flexion, dorsiflexion, inversion and total ankle ROM of fibular fixation group in spiral fractures was 40.0, 20.0, 30.0 and 108.3 degrees of each and that of non-fixation group was 38.3, 18.5, 27.0 and 101.7 degrees (p<0.05). Conclusions: In oblique and spiral fractures of distal tibiofibular diaphysis, interlocking intramedullary nail with fibular fixation had the advantage in postoperative ankle ROM. So, it can be a worthy method for the treatment of distal tibiofibular diaphyseal fractures.

In this paper, the electrical characteristics of Fin-type SONOS(silicon-oxide-nitride-oxide-silicon) flash memory device with different trapping layers are analyzed in depth. Two kinds of trapping layers i.e., silicon nitride($Si_3N_4$) and hafnium oxide($HfO_2$) are applied. Compared to the conventional Fin-type SONOS device using the $Si_3N_4$ trapping layer, the Fin-type SOHOS(silicon-oxide-high-k-oxide-silicon) device using the $HfO_2$ trapping layer shows superior program/erase speed. However, the data retention properties in SOHOS device are worse than the SONOS flash memory device. Degraded data retention in the SOHOS device may be attributed to the tunneling leakage current induced by interface trap states, which are supported by the subthreshold slope and low frequency noise characteristics.

In this paper, Fin-type silicon-oxide-nitride-oxide-silicon (SONOS) flash memory are fabricated and the electrical characteristics are analyzed. Compared to the planar-type SONOS devices, Fin-type SONOS devices show good short channel effect (SCE) immunity due to the enhanced gate controllability. In memory characteristics such as program/erase speed, endurance and data retention, Fin-type SONOS flash memory are also superior to those of conventional planar-type. In addition, Fin-type SONOS device shows improved SCE immunity in accordance with the decrease of Fin width. This is known to be due to the fully depleted mode operation as the Fin width decreases. In Fin-type, however, the memory characteristic improvement is not shown in narrower Fin width. This is thought to be caused by the Fin structure where the electric field of Fin top can interference with the Fin side electric field and be lowered.

Objectives: The objective of the present study was to compare prognosis of patients with gastric or colorectal cancer according to places where they received surgeries. Methods: The cancer patients underwent surgeries in sampled hospitals located in Daegu were matched 1:1 to the patients who visited sampled hospitals in Seoul using propensity score method. After the occurrences of death were examined, Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis and the log-rank test was performed to compare the survival curves. Results: A total of six out of 291 gastric cancer patients who had surgeries in Daegu died (2.1%) and ten deaths (3.4%) occurred from patients went Seoul hospitals. Out of 84 gastric cancer patients who had chemotherapy after surgeries in Daegu, 13 (15.5%) patients died while 18 (21.4%) deaths occurred among patients underwent surgeries in Seoul. Six deaths (6.9%) out of 87 colorectal cancer patients who had surgeries in Daegu were reported. Five patients (5.7%) died among the patients underwent surgeries in Seoul. Among the colorectal cancer patients with chemotherapy after surgeries, 13 patients (12.4%) who visited hospitals in Daegu and 14 (13.3%) patients who used medical centers in Seoul died. There were no significant differences according to places where patients used medical services. Conclusions: The result of this study is expected to be used as basic data for policy making to resolve centralization problem of cancer patients and to help patients to make rational choices in selection of medical centers.

본 논문에서는 서울시를 대상으로 11개 토지이용 형태별 불투수면적 비율을 산정하고 이를 바탕으로 CN을 산정하였다. 또한 서울시 25개 구청별로 주택지역, 공업지역, 교통시설지역, 상업업무지역, 혼합지역 등 불투수면적 비율이 높은 5개 토지이용형태별로 불투수면적 비율을 검토하여 도시화에 따른 불투수면적 비율의 증가를 검토하고 이를 바탕으로 도시화율로부터 불투수면적 비율을 추정할 수 있는 회귀식을 도출하였다. 본 논문에서 검토한 결과 서울시 토지피복유형 중에서 미국과 비교했을 때 불투수율이 가장 크게 차이 나는 것은 주택지역이었으며, 다음으로 공업지역, 상업업무지역의 순으로 나타났다. 이에 따라 유출곡선지수(CN)는 미국에 비해 주택지역에서 최대 13, 공업지역에서 최대 12, 상업업무지역에서 최대 5까지 증가하는 것으로 분석되어 미국의 기준을 그대로 적용할 경우 국내 도시유역의 홍수유출량을 과소평가할 가능성이 있는 것으로 나타났다.

활성탄의 특성을 이용하여 상업적으로 문제시되고 있는 수질 및 공기 정화용 항균성 Ag-활성탄을 제조하여 질소 흡착 특성, 표면구조 및 박테리아 저항성에 대하여 조사하였다. 높은 비표면적을 가진 활성탄에 대하여 $AgNO_3$을 사용하여 Ag-활성탄을 제조하였다. $AgNO_3$ 몰농도에 따라 침적된 Ag-활성탄의 비표면적 값은 $740-1112.2m^2/g$의 범위에 분포하고 있었으며, $AgNO_3$ 몰농도가 증가함에 따라 비표면적이 작아지는 경향을 나타내어 흡착된 Ag가 원료 활성탄의 표면구조에 영향을 주었다. SEM결과에 의하면, Ag 함침에 따라 흡착제의 외부 표면에 미세 동공에서 윈도우 블럭킹 효과를 나타내었다. 항균 실험을 위하여 박테리아로서 대장균(colon bacillus)의 일종인 Escherichia coli를 사용하였으며, Ag가 흡착되지 않은 활성탄의 경우에 있어서는 활성을 전혀 나타내지 않았으며, 흡착된 Ag의 양이 증가됨에 따라 활성의 범위가 증가함을 알 수 있었다.

Background: Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is well-known soluble tumor marker frequently detectable in peripheral blood of carcinoma patients and considered as good target for antigen-specific immunotherapy. In this study, we used a replication-deficient adenovirus containing CEA to study CTL induction in vitro after adenovirus-mediated gene transfer into DC. Methods: DC were obtained from mouse bone marrow and cultured with IL-4 and GM-CSF. For measuring CTL activity, splenocytes were harvested from the mice, which were immunized with DC that had been infected AdV-CEA or pulsed with CEA peptide. Untreated DC was used as a control. Splenocytes were re-stimulated in vitro with DC pulsed with CEA peptide for 7 days and CTL activity with CEA peptide-pulsed EL-4 cells were assessed in a standard $^{51}Cr$-release assay. The frequencies of antigen-specific cytokine-secreting T cell were determined with $mIFN-{\gamma}$ELISPOT. Results: DC infected with recombinant adenovirus expressing CEA induced CEA-specific CTL responses in vivo. Splenocyte induced from mice immunized with AdV-CEA-infected DC increase in the number of $IFN-{\gamma}$ secreting T cells compared with those from mice immunized with CEA peptide-pulsed DC. Conclusion: These results suggested that DC infected with recombinant adenovirus has advantages over other forms of vaccination and could provide an alternative approach vaccination therapies.

Some of the large sized companies have taken parts in a hospital business with a view or justification to improve medical care regadless of the disadvantageous fee-for-service medical insurance reimbursement system controlled by authorities related. This gradually brought about the financial difficulties to university hospitals as well as general hospitals that were less competitive. In this circumstance the hospital administrators are called for preparing and implementing proper financial strategies by analyzing external circumstances and internal abilities of their hospitals. In this aspect, an effective cost-analysis system in the hospital has been needed for years. K-University hospital developed the practical cost-analysis system and applied it to the hospital management. The effects of cost analysis system are as belows: first, the trend of the monthly revenue per medical specialist from March to July in 1996 showed increasing pattern which is different from that in past years. second, it turned out that the department of functional laboratory in relation to medical treatment enlarged the medical revenue very sharply. third, the intensive care units were being operated at the state of deficit, while other general wards were lucrative.
