Purpose: The purpose of the study was to investigate the factors affecting on smartphone addiction according to the classification of addiction-risk groups among college students, focusing on self-control. Methods: A sample of 242 college students at K University in Seoul was recruited to participate in the study. A structured questionnaire composed of items for the self-rated smartphone addiction scale and self-control scale was used to collect data. Results: The number of students in smartphone addiction-risk group was 66 (27.3%). This study had 17.5% of the explanatory power, including perceived smartphone necessity (${\beta}=.330$, p=.007), and instant self-control (${\beta}=-.281$, p=.028) in addiction-risk group. Whereas, in non-risk group, the affecting factors included gender (${\beta}=.194$, p=.004), self-awareness of addiction (${\beta}=-.290$, p<.001), and instant self-control (${\beta}=-.281$, p<.001) with 31.3% of the explanatory power. Conclusion: There is a need to develop an intervention program to prevent the addiction of smartphones and to improve self-control among college students.

Purpose: This study aimed to identify the mediating and moderating effects of mindset and psychological collectivism, respectively, on the relationship between grit and nursing intention for children with emerging infectious diseases, including coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), among pediatric nurses. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional descriptive study with 230 pediatric nurses. Results: Grit directly impacted mindset (β=.27, p<.001) and nursing intention (β=.20, p=.001). The direct effect of mindset on nursing intension (β=.28, p<.001) and the indirect effect of grit on nursing intension via mindset (β=.08, p<.001) were significant. Accordingly, mindset mediated the effect of grit on nursing intention. The effects of grit and psychological collectivism (β=.19, p=.003), respectively, on nursing intention were significant. However, the interaction between grit and psychological collectivism was not significant. Thus, psychological collectivism did not moderate the effect of grit on nursing intention. Conclusion: The findings demonstrate the importance of pediatric nurses' grit and mindset on their intended care for patients in critical situations. Cultivating a gritty culture and developing interventions to enhance nurses' personality traits associated with their performance will be crucial, and such measures are especially salient for pediatric nurses to face the new adjustments required in the era of COVID-19.

MicroRNAs have been demonstrated to regulate proliferation and apoptosis in many types of cancers, but biological functions in osteosarcomas remain relatively unknown. Here, we found expression of miR-802 to be up-regulated in osteosarcoma tissues in comparison with adjacent normal tissues. Enforced expression of miR-802 was able to promote cell proliferation in U2OS and MG63 cells, while miR-802 antisense oligonucleotides (antisense miR-802) inhibited cell proliferation. At the molecular level, our results further revealed that expression of p27, a negative cell-cycle regulator, was negatively regulated by miR-802. Therefore, the data reported here indicate that miR-802 is an important regulator in osteosarcoma, our findings contributing to a better understanding of important mis-regulated miRNAs in this tumour type.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the predicting factors of nursing work performance. Methods: The participants in this study were 148 nurses working in S university hospital in P city. The scales included social support, health promoting lifestyle profile-II (HPLP-II), and nursing work performance. A descriptive analysis and stepwise multiple regression were used for data analysis. Results: Significant correlations were found among social support, health promotion behaviors and nursing work performance. The significant predictive factors of nursing work performance were the emotional support subscale of social support (β=.31, p<.001) and the interpersonal relations subscale of health promotion behaviors (β=.32, p<.001). These two subscales explained 27% of nursing work performance. Conclusion: Nursing education programs should include an emphasis on developing methods of emotional support and interpersonal relations in order to improve nursing work performance among clinical nurses.

사육 수온이 넙치의 성비에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해 일반 넙치 및 자성발생성 2배체 넘치 자어를 대상으로 부화 후 35일(전장 1.2 cm)부터 100일(전장 12 cm)까지 사육 수온 18, 21, 24 및 $27^{\circ}C$로 나누어 2회 반복하여 실험하였다. 사육 수온이 높을수록 암컷의 비율은 낮게 나타나 사육 수온과 암컷 비율에 있어 역상관관계를 보였다. 자성발생성 2배체 실험군의 경우 $18^{\circ}C$에서 $94.4\%$의 암컷을 보인 반면 $27^{\circ}C$에서는 $57.6\%$로 나타나 암수비가 1 : 1이었다(P<0.01). 사육 수온에 따른 생존율은 일반 넙치 및 자성발생성 2배체 넙치 모두 18, 21, 24 및 $27^{\circ}C$ 순으로 높았으나 $27^{\circ}C$를 제외한 나머지 실험군은 유의차가 없었으며 $18^{\circ}C$를 제외한 나머지 실험군의 체중 성장은 유의차가 없었다(P>0.05).

The characterization of cytochrome P450 CYP125A13 from Streptomyces peucetius was conducted using cholesterol as the sole substrate. The in vitro enzymatic assay utilizing putidaredoxin and putidaredoxin reductase from Pseudomonas putida revealed that CYP125A13 bound cholesterol and hydroxylated it. The calculated K_D value, catalytic conversion rates, and Km value were 56.92 ± 11.28 μM, 1.95 nmol min^-1 nmol^-1, and 11.3 ± 2.8 μM, respectively. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis showed that carbon 27 of the cholesterol side-chain was hydroxylated, characterizing CYP125A13 as steroid C27-hydroxylase. The homology modeling and docking results also revealed the binding of cholesterol to the active site, facilitated by the hydrophobic amino acids and position of the C27-methyl group near heme. This orientation was favorable for the hydroxylation of the C27-methyl group, supporting the in vitro analysis. This was the first reported case of the hydroxylation of cholesterol at the C-27 position by Streptomyces P450. This study also established the catalytic function of CYP125A13 and provides a solid basis for further studies related to the catabolic potential of Streptomyces species.

To develop potential cosmetic ingredients with antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of 4 Korean bamboo species (P. bambusoides, P. nigra var. henonis, P. pubescens and Sasa coreana) using three different extraction methods-water, ethanol and supercritical fluid extraction. Antimicrobial activities and DPPH assay have been examined. Among the antimicrobial activities against two test strains, Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, ethanol extracts of 3 bamboo trees, P. bambusoides, P. nigra var. henonis, and P. pubescens, showed stronger than those of supercritical extracts. However, 4 bamboo supercritical extracts showed dose-dependent increase in antioxidant activity by DPPH assay. These results suggest that water fraction of bamboo extracts may be useful for the cosmetic ingredient with low cytotoxicity.

For a bounded linear operator T we prove the following assertions: (a) If T is algebraically (p, k)-quasihyponormal, then T is a-isoloid, polaroid, reguloid and a-polaroid. (b) If $T^*$ is algebraically (p, k)-quasihyponormal, then a-Weyl's theorem holds for f(T) for every $f{\in}Hol({\sigma}T))$, where $Hol({\sigma}(T))$ is the space of all functions that analytic in an open neighborhoods of ${\sigma}(T)$ of T. (c) If $T^*$ is algebraically (p, k)-quasihyponormal, then generalized a-Weyl's theorem holds for f(T) for every $f{\in}Hol({\sigma}T))$. (d) If T is a (p, k)-quasihyponormal operator, then the spectral mapping theorem holds for semi-B-essential approximate point spectrum $\sigma_{SBF_+^-}(T)$, and for left Drazin spectrum ${\sigma}_{lD}(T)$ for every $f{\in}Hol({\sigma}T))$.

목 적: 과거에는 비교적 흔했던 백일해는 DTP백신의 사용 이후 경험하기 어려운 질환이 되었다. 이 같은 상황은 DTP백신의 높은 방어효과에 의한 것이기도 하지만 실제로는 알고 있는 것보다 많은 환자가 발생하고 있으나 확진을 위한 검사법이 용이하지 않아 생기는 현상일 수도 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 발작적 기침을 주증상으로 입원한 영아들에게 백일해에 대한 검사를 적극적으로 수행하여 백일해로 진단되는 비율을 얻음과 동시에, 백일해로 확진된 환자들과 비백일해 대조군의 임상양상을 비교함으로써 본 질환에 대한 보다 높은 관심을 이끌고자 하였다. 방 법: 2006년 6월부터 11월까지 가톨릭대학교 성빈센트병원 소아청소년과에 입원한 생후 15-90일의 영아 중 1주일 이상 기침이 지속되고, 발작적 기침이나 흡기 시 '흡' 소리, 기침 후 구토가 있었던 환자 27명의 비인두 가검물로 백일해에 대한 PCR 및 배양검사를 시행하였다. 백일해에 대한 PCR 양성이나 배양검사에서 균이 자란 경우를 백일해 환자군, PCR음성이면서 배양검사에서 균이 자라지 않은 경우를 비백일해 대조군으로 정의하고 두 군간의 임상양상을 비교하였다. 결 과 : 연구 대상 27명의 입원시 진단명은 세기관지염 20명, 기관지 폐렴 1명, 백일해양 증후군 6명이었다. 백일해로 확진된 5명 중 1명(20%)만이 입원 시의 진단명이 백일해양 증후군이었다. 백일해 환자군과 비백일해 대조군의 임상양상을 비교한 결과 환자군에서 의미 있게 높은 빈도를 보였던것은 무발열(P =0.043), 발작적 기침(P =0.040), 청색증(P =0.001), DTaP백신 미접종(P =0.003), 정상 청진소견(P =0.028), 가슴 X-선 사진의 정상소견(P =0.027), 절대 림프구수(P =0.039), 낮은 CRP 수치(P =0.046)이었으며, 총 기침기간은 백일해 환자군에서 비백일해 대조군에 비해 길었다 (27.2${\pm}$10.6 vs. 12.6${\pm}$5.6일, P =0.039). 결 론: 백일해로 확진된 영아의 일부만이 입원 시의 진단명이 백일해양 증후군이었다. 따라서 전형적인 백일해 증상이 있는 경우는 물론, 열이 없이 1주일 이상 발작적 기침이 지속되거나 청색증이 동반되는 DTaP 백신 접종력이 없는 영아들에서는 백일해의 가능성을 반드시 염두에 두어 이에 대한 적극적인 검사를 고려해야 하겠다.
