Interleukin-1b ($IL-1{\beta}$), a proinflammatory cytokine, regulates the innate immune responses against bacterial infection. Mature $IL-1{\beta}$ is produced from $pro-IL-1{\beta}$ by activated caspase-1, which in turn is activated by the inflammasome complex formation. In this study, we compared the inflammasome mRNA expression induced by S. sanguinis, S. oralis, F. nucleatum and P. intermedia. Among the tested bacteria, S. sanguinis induced the highest $IL-1{\beta}$ secretion. S. oralis, F. nucleatum and P. intermedia induced very weak $IL-1{\beta}$ secretion. S. sanguinis mostly induced the NLRP3 mRNA expressions. Although F. nucleatum did not induce high $IL-1{\beta}$ secretion, it induced high expression levels of AIM2, NLRP2, and NLRP3. No specific inflammasomes were induced by S. oralis and P.intermedia. Studying the inflammasome complex activation induced by oral bacteria may thus enhance our understanding of the pathogenesis of oral diseases.

Purpose: This study proposed to examine the effects of a blended-learning orientation program executed for nursing students' clinical practice. Method: The participants were 61 nursing students in the experimental group and 57 in the control group. For the experimental group, a blended-learning orientation program was executed by e-learning (on-line) and lecture-led training (off-line) from two-week before the start of clinical practice in medical-surgical nursing. For the control group, orientation was given in the traditional lecture-led training by distributing printed materials before clinical practice. A pre-test was conducted on the experimental and control group before clinical practice, and a post-test was conducted after two-week of clinical practice in order to examine the effects of the orientation program. Results: After two-week of clinical practice, differences were observed between the experimental group and the control group in adaptation to clinical practice (F=10.242, p=.002), communication skills (F=4.305, p=.040) and clinical competence (F=6.823, p=.010). Conclusions: The blended-learning orientation program enhanced nursing students' adaptation to clinical practice, improved their communication skill and increased their clinical competence. Accordingly, it is recommended to develop and apply practical education using blended-learning in the area of nursing science.

The oil-based magnetic fluids were sysnthesized using ultra-fine $Fe_{3}O_{4}$ powder dispersed in hydrocarbon oil. To synthesize ultra-fine $Fe_{3}O_{4}$, we carried out the experiments varying the pH of reacting medium and the initial concentration of $Fe^{2+}$. We also investigated the amount of oleic acid to obtain a stable dispersion and the proper base oil of MF for loudspeaker application. The limits of adsorbed amount of oleic acid on the $Fe_{3}O_{4}$ surface were approximately 35~40 percents of the total magnetite weight. As the $Fe_{3}O_{4}$ content increased from 0.1g/cc to 0.6g/cc, the viscosity of oil-based magnetic fluid increased from 1,063cP to 1,828cP, and its saturation magnetization at 10kOe increased from 66G to 242G. When we tested the MF sample to a commercial speaker, improvements were noted.

The purpose of this study was to verify the effectiveness of the computerized cognitive rehabilitation program in which areas and to suggest effective ways to utilize the program in the future, being conducted for 20 college students. We lasted this study from May 3 to 23, 2021. As a result of analyzing the groups using the Computer-based Cognitive Rehabilitation Program (CoTras), in terms of the difference in accuracy for the case of visual perception group B was statistically significantly improved than group C(p<0.05). In the case of attention, memory, and orientation, there was no significant difference between groups(p>0.05). In the case of reaction time difference, there was no significant difference between groups in visual perception, concentration, memory, and orientation(p>0.05). And in order to improve attention and visual perception, it is recommended to conduct the program three times with a duration of 20 minutes, and in order to improve orientation and memory, it can be said that it is helpful to conduct one experiment for at least 30 minutes rather than conducting short and frequent experiments. Through this study, we found that it is effective to apply different times according to each area to improve cognitive function. In other words, depending on the purpose of which cognitive function is to be improved, the duration of the program should be applied differently.
