본 연구는 $Qraycam^{TM}$을 활용한 구강보건교육 피드백의 효과를 알아보고자 하였다. 중학교 2학년 총 118명을 대상으로 4주간 실험을 진행한 후 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. $Qraycam^{TM}$을 활용한 치면세균막 검사에서는 이미지로 피드백을 받은 실험군의 ${\Delta}R30$, ${\Delta}R70$, ${\Delta}R120$값 모두 통계적으로 유의하게 감소하였다(p<0.001). SPS는 실험군과 대조군 모두 중재 후에 감소하였으나 실험군에서만 통계적으로 유의한 결과가 나타났다(p<0.001). 구강보건행태에서는 칫솔질 시간이 중재 후 실험군이 대조군에 비해 유의하게 높은 결과가 나왔다(p<0.001). 주관적 구강건강상태에서는 주관적 구강건강의 중요성이 대조군에 비하여 실험군에서 통계적으로 유의하게 높았다(p<0.001). 이상의 결과를 종합해 보면 $Qraycam^{TM}$이미지로 피드백을 받은 실험군에서 치면세균막 감소효과가 컸으며, 칫솔질 시간, 주관적 구강건강의 중요성이 높게 나타났으므로 $Qraycam^{TM}$을 구강보건교육에 시각적인 피드백 도구로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 보여진다.

목 적 : 폐쇄성 수면무호흡증(이하 수면무호흡증) 환자에서 고혈압이 흔히 병발되나 지속적 상기도 양압술(이하 양압술)에 따른 고혈압 해소 정도는 연구방법에 따라 상이한 결과를 보이고 있다. 이에 저자들은 지속적-비관혈적 혈압 측정법을 이용하여 기초 혈압치가 다양한 수면무호흡증 환자군에서 양압술을 적용하면서 야간 수면중 혈압 및 심박 동수 반응에 양압술이 미치는 영향을 연구하고자 하였다. 또한 양압술에 의한 혈역학적 변화에 영향을 줄 수 있는 요인들을 찾고자 하였다. 방 법 : 연구대상으로는 수면무호흡증의 임상 증상을 지니고 있으며 기초 측정일의 야간 수면다원검사 결과 호흡장애지수가 5이상인 환자 10명(평균연령 52.2$\pm$12.4세, 남자 9명, 여자 1명)을 선택하였다. 양압술을 시행하지 않은 상태인 기초 측정일과 양압술을 시행한 양압술 시행일 모두에서 야간 수면다원기록과 동시에 지속적-비관혈적 혈압측정기($Finapres^{(R)}$)를 사용하여 매 박동(beat-to-beat)시의 수축기 혈압, 이완기 혈압, 그리고 심박동수를 측정하였다. 또한 매 2초마다 혈중산소포화도($SaO_2$)를 측정하였다. 기초 측정일과 양압술 시행일 두 군간에 혈역학적 및 호흡기적 변인들의 평균치를 비교하였다. 기초 측정일 값에서 양압술 시행일 값을 뺀 수축기 혈압 델타값 및 이완기 혈압 델타값 각각과 기초 측정일의 측정치들(수축기 혈압, 이완기 혈압, 그 각각의 혈압 변이도, 심박동수 및 심박동수 변이도, 혈중산소포화도 평균치, 그리고 호흡장애지수), 양압술 시행일의 측정치들(양압술 처방압력 및 총 각성시간 분율), 연령, 그리고 비만도 간의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 결 과 : 1) 혈중 산소포화도의 평균치와 호흡장애지수가 기초 측정일에 비해 양압술 시행일에서 각각 증가(p<.01) 및 감소(p<.01)하였으나, 혈역학적 변인을 포함한 다른 비교 변인들에서는 차이가 없었다. 2) 기초 측정일의 혈압에서 양압술 시행일의 혈압을 뺀 델타값들을 분석한 결과 기초 측정일의 혈압치와 대상군의 연령에 따라 혈압 반응이 차별적으로 나타났다. 수축기 혈압 델타값과 기초 측정일의 수축기 혈압간에 유의한 정적 상관관계를 보였으나(p<.01), 이완기 혈압 델타값과 기초 측정일의 이완기 혈압간에는 각성기(p<.01)를 제외한 다른 수면단계에서 유의한 상관관계가 없었다. 렘수면단계를 제외한 모든 수면단계에서 이완기 혈압의 델타값과 연령 사이에 유의한 역 상관관계가 있었지만(p<.05), 수축기 혈압의 델타값과 연령 간에는 유의한 상관관계가 없었다. 3) 수축기 혈압 델타값 및 이완기 혈압델타값 각각과 기초 측정일의 측정치들, 양압술 시행일의 측정치들, 그리고 비만도 간의 상관관계를 분석한 결과, 이완기 혈압 델타값과 양압술 시행일의 각성시간 분율간의 유의한 정적 상관관계(p<.01) 외에는 유의한 상관관계가 없었다. 결 론 : 양압술 적용에 따라 수축기 혈압 델타값과 이완기 혈압 델타값이 기초 측정일의 수축기 혈압치와 대상군의 연령에 따라 각각 증가 또는 감소하였다. 따라서, 본 연구는 양압술에 따른 혈압 반응은 단순 감소로 나타나는 것이 아니라 여러 변인의 조건에 따라 차별적 혈압 반응 양상으로 나타나는 복합적인 현상이며 앞으로 좀더 세밀하게 연구되어야 할 대상임을 시사한다.

The effects of thermo-solutal convection on mercurous chloride system of ${Hg_2}{Cl_2}$, and Ne during physical vapor transport are numerically investigated for further understanding and insight into essence of transport phenomena, For $10\;K{\le}{\Delta}T{\le}30\;K$, the growth rate slowly increases and, then is decreased gradually until ${\Delta}T$=50 K, The occurrence of this critical point near at ${\Delta}T$=30 K is likely to be due to the effects of thermo-physical properties stronger than the temperature gradient corresponding to driving force for thermal convection. For the range of $10\;Torr{\le}P_B{\le}300\;Torr$, the rate is second order-exponentially decayed with partial pressures of component B, $P_B$. For the range of $5{\le}M_B{\le}200$, the rate is second order-exponentially decayed with a function of molecular weight of component B, $M_B$. Like the case of a partial pressure of component B, the effects of a molecular weight arc: reflected through the binary diffusivity coefficients, which are intimately related with suppressing the convection flow inside the growth enclosure, i,e., transition from convection to diffusion-dominant flow mode as the molecular weight of B increases. The convective mode is near at a ground level, i,e., on earth (1 $g_0$), and the convection is switched to the diffusion mode for $0.1\;g_0{\le}g{\le}10^{-2}g_0$, whereas the diffusion region ranges from $10^{-2}g_0$ up to $10^{-5}g_0$.

PURPOSE. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of abutment shade, ceramic thickness, and coping type on the final shade of zirconia all-ceramic restorations. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Three different types of disk-shaped zirconia coping specimens (Lava, Cercon, Zirkonzahn: ${\phi}10mm{\times}0.4mm$) were fabricated and veneered with IPS e.max Press Ceram (shade A2), for total thicknesses of 1 and 1.5 mm. A total of sixty zirconia restoration specimens were divided into six groups based on their coping types and thicknesses. The abutment specimens (${\phi}10mm{\times}7mm$) were prepared with gold alloy, base metal (nickel-chromium) alloy, and four different shades (A1, A2, A3, A4) of composite resins. The average $L^*$, $a^*$, $b^*$ values of the zirconia specimens on the six abutment specimens were measured with a dental colorimeter, and the statistical significance in the effects of three variables was analyzed by using repeated measures analysis of variance (${\alpha}$=.05).The average shade difference (${\Delta}E$) values of the zirconia specimens between the A2 composite resin abutment and other abutments were also evaluated. RESULTS. The effects of zirconia specimen thickness (P<.001), abutment shade (P<.001), and type of zirconia copings (P<.003) on the final shade of the zirconia restorations were significant. The average ${\Delta}E$ value of Lava specimens (1 mm) between the A2 composite resin and gold alloy abutments was higher (close to the acceptability threshold of 5.5 ${\Delta}E$) than th ose between the A2 composite resin and other abutments. CONCLUSION. This in-vitro study demonstrated that abutment shade, ceramic thickness, and coping type affected the resulting shade of zirconia restorations.

This paper presents various processes of dynamic voltage collapse which is initiated by various power system disturbances, and the impacts of dynamic voltage controllers. According to the analysis results, the composition of induction motors with short time constants affects the voltage collapse strongly. Also, it is proved that the addition of fast acting reactive compensation devices, such as SVC, at high reactive loss sensitivity($$\delta$$Q$$_luss/\delta$$P$$_L$$) buses could be one of the best countermeasure to escape the voltage collapse.

Practical stability design method of main members of cable-stayed bridges is proposed and discussed through a design example. For this purpose, initial tensions of stay cables and axial forces of main members are firstly determined using initial shaping analysis of bridges under dead loads. And then the effective buckling length using system elastic/inelastic buckling analysis and bending moments considering $P-{\delta}-{\Delta}$ effect by second-order elastic analysis are calculated for main girder and pylon members subjected to both axial forces and moments, respectively. Particularly, load combinations of dead and live loads, in which maximum load effects due to live loads are obtained, are taken into account and effects of live loads on effective buckling lengths are investigated.

To develop the removal technique of algal bloom the efficiencies of algal flocculation/ autoflotation by the kinds of coagulant and oversaturated oxygen concentration were investigated. The summarized results are as follow. 1. In the algae flocculation test with alum[$Al_2(SO_4)_3{\cdot}18H_2O$], optimum pH was 5.5 and, with chitosan optimum pH was 7.0. 2. Chitosan which was natural polymer showed the 5~10 times higher algal biomass flocculation efficiency than alum in the condition of same algal concentration. 3. For the each coagulant, the higher ${\Delta}DO$(oversaturated dissolved oxygen concentration - saturated dissolved oxygen) was, the faster the rising velocity of the algal floc was. 4. In the condition of about 4mg/L ${\Delta}DO$, the rising velocity of chitosan is about 2 times higher than that of alum, and chitosan formed the stronger algal floc.

A typical marine platform in the Bay of Campeche is studied from the standpoint of structural reliability, and several characteristics of its deck such as slenderness and diameter/thickness ratios of the legs and actual degree of correlation between some variables are taken into account. The global and local buckling capacities of the deck legs are compared and the correlation coefficient between the critical axial load and the critical moment is assessed in order to validate its influence on the structural reliability. In addition, the influence of the vertical load, and its uncertainty, on the variance of the decks capacity, and latter on, on the platform's failure probability is assessed. The results presented may be used in future studies to further extend and upgrade the first version of the Reference Norm (PEMEX, 2000) and, in the longer term, to improve the current practice in the Design and Requalification of Offshore Marine Platforms in the Bay of Campeche.

For Ar=5, Pr=1.18, Le=0.15, Pe=2.89, Cv=1.06, $P_B$=20 Torr, the effects of impurity $(N_2)$ on thermally and solutally buoyancy-driven convection ($Gr_t=3.46{\times}10^4$ and $Gr_s=6.02{\times}10^5$, respectively) are theoretically investigated for further understanding and insight into an essence of thermo-solutal convection occurring in the vapor phase during the physical vapor transport. For $10K{\leq}{\Delta}T{\leq}50K$, the crystal growth rates are intimately related and linearly proportional to a temperature difference between the source and crystal region which is a driving force for thermally buoyancy-driven convection. Moreover, both the dimensionless Peclet number (Pe) and dimensional maximum velocity magnitudes are directly and linearly proportional to ${\Delta}T$. The growth rate is second order-exponentially decayed for $2{\leq}Ar{\leq}5$. This is related to a finding that the effects of side walls tend to stabilize the thermo-solutal convection in the growth reactor. Finally, the growth rate is found to be first order exponentially decayed for $10{\leq}P_B{\leq}200$ Torr.

The effects of an antipsychotic, chlorpromazine, on the electroencephalogram (EEG) were observed while rats were awake but immobile. The time course and the dose-dependency of the EEG changes were examined. The method of the power spectrum analysis was used to examine the EEG changes by the drug. The bands were divided into delta $(1{\sim}3.5\;Hz),$ theta $(3.5{\sim}8\;Hz),$ alpha $(8{\sim}13\;Hz),$ beta1 $(13{\sim}21\;Hz),$ beta2 $(21{\sim}30\;Hz)$ and gamma $(30{\sim}50\;Hz).$ In rats, the low dose of chlropromazine (1 mg/kg, i.p.) produced a significant increase in the power of the beta1 band. The higher doses (5, 10 mg/kg, i.p.) produced a significant increase in the power of the delta, theta, alpha and beta1 bands, and the decrease in the power of the gamma band. The powers of the bands changed dose-dependently. Then, the authors discussed whether the EEG effects produced by a drug are associated with the accompanying behavioral changes specifically.
