  • 최근 22년간(1986-2007년)의 기상청 자료를 이용하여 태풍의 발생 해역별(A해역: 캐롤라인 마샬군도 부근 해역, B해역 : 북위 20도 이북 해역, C해역 : 필리핀 근해, D해역 : 남중국해)로, 태풍의 발생 수 및 세기에 관하여 분석하였다. 태풍의 연평균 발생 수는 26.3개로, 모든 해역에서 공통적으로 감소하는 추세를 보인다. 특히, A해역에서 감소 추세가 현저하고, D해역에서는 감소 추세가 미미하다. 태풍이 가장 많이 발생하는 해역은 A해역(연평균 13.8개, 전체의 약 53%)이고, 그 다음은 C해역(5.6개, 약 21%), B해역(3.8개, 약 14%), D해역(3.1개, 약 12%)의 순서이다. 태풍의 세기는 A해역에서 발생하는 것이 가장 강하고(중심최저기압의 평균 951hPa), 그 다음은 C해역(970hPa), B해역(975hPa), D해역(983hPa)의 순서이다. 그리고 전 해역을 대상으로 하여 연평균 중심최저기압의 시계열 분포를 살펴보면, 태풍의 중심최저기압은 미세하게 하강하는 추세를 보인다. 이는 태풍의 세기가 서서히 강해지고 있음을 의미한다. 금번의 연구 결과는 지구 온난화에 따른 태풍의 수와 세기의 변화에 대한 여러 수치실험 결과와 일치한다.

  • Background: The aim of our study was to establish COLD-PCR combined with an unlabeled-probe HRM approach for detecting KRAS codon 12 and 13 mutations in plasma-circulating DNA of pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PA) cases as a novel and effective diagnostic technique. Materials and Methods: We tested the sensitivity and specificity of this approach with dilutions of known mutated cell lines. We screened 36 plasma-circulating DNA samples, 24 from the disease control group and 25 of a healthy group, to be subsequently sequenced to confirm mutations. Simultaneously, we tested the specimens using conventional PCR followed by HRM and then used target-DNA cloning and sequencing for verification. The ROC and respective AUC were calculated for KRAS mutations and/or serum CA 19-9. Results: It was found that the sensitivity of Sanger reached 0.5% with COLD-PCR, whereas that obtained after conventional PCR did 20%; that of COLD-PCR based on unlabeled-probe HRM, 0.1%. KRAS mutations were identified in 26 of 36 PA cases (72.2%), while none were detected in the disease control and/or healthy group. KRAS mutations were identified both in 26 PA tissues and plasma samples. The AUC of COLD-PCR based unlabeled probe HRM turned out to be 0.861, which when combined with CA 19-9 increased to 0.934. Conclusions: It was concluded that COLD-PCR with unlabeled-probe HRM can be a sensitive and accurate screening technique to detect KRAS codon 12 and 13 mutations in plasma-circulating DNA for diagnosing and treating PA.

  • Low Electromagnetic Field (EMF) intensity in the range of $1{\mu}T\;to\;10{\mu}T$(Tesla) was found to enhance the growth of CHO cells and the production of tPA in batch and perfusion cultivations. At $1{\mu}T\;intensity,\;1.3{\times}10^7$ viable cells/ml of maximum cell density and 80 mg/l of maximum tPA production were obtained in batch cultivation, compared to $2.8{\times}10^6$ viable cells/ml and 59 mg tPA/1 in unexposed case (control). A similar trend was observed in the perfusion process, where it was possible to obtain $1.2{\times}10^7$ viable cells/ml of maximum cell density and 81 mg tPA/l of maximum tPA production by more than 80 days of cultivation. However, there was not much difference between $1{\mu}T\;and\;10{\mu}T$ in perfusion cultivation, possibly due to better environmental growth conditions being maintained by continuous feeding of fresh medium into the reactor. On the contrary, both cell growth and tPA production were severely inhibited at higher than 1 mT intensity, showing no growth at 10 mT exposure. Specific growth rate was linearly correlated to specific tPA production rate at $1{\mu}T$EMF intensity, which represents a partially growth-related relationship. It was also found that a large amount of $Ca^2+$ was released at low EMF intensity, even though the cell growth was not much affected. Low EMF intensity significantly improved both cell growth and tPA production, and tPA production seemed to be more affected than the cell growth, possibly due to the changes of cell membrane characteristics. It can be concluded that the elaboration of EMF intensity less than $10{\mu}T$ could improve cell growth and tPA production, but mainly tPA secretion through batch or perfusion process in a bioreactor.

  • Purpose: Pathologic aerophagia (PA) may lead to bowel perforation or volvulus in mentally retarded patients. The authors investigated the effects of clonazepam on the management of PA in children with severe to profound mental retardation (MR). Methods: This study was undertaken as a retrospective case analysis of 21 PA patients with MR who were followed for over 12 months and diagnosed as having PA. Patients were assigned to two management groups, that is, to a clonazepam randomized open-labeled, treatment group or a reassurance group. The following were recorded and analyzed; age, response, remission rate to clonazepam treatment, and the side effect of clonazepam. It was defined positive response (response+) as being symptom-free for a whole week within 1 month of commencing treatment and remission(+) as being symptom-free for a whole month within 6 months of treatment. Results: The average age of the 21 PA children with MR was 10 years and 13 patients were female. Symptom duration before diagnosis of PA was 7 months. Clinical features of the clonazepam-trial group (n=11) and the reassurance group (n=10) were non-significantly different. Response(+) was achieved by 2 patients (18.2%) in the clonazepamtrial group and by no patient in the reassurance group. Remission(+) was achieved by 6 patients (54.5%) in the clonazepam-trial group and by one patient (10%) in the reassurance group (p=0.040). Conclusion: When PA children with MR with severe bowel distention are considered for surgical treatment to prevent acute abdomen, a trial of clonazepam could be recommended.

  • [Purpose] The purpose of this study was to comparatively investigate the correlation among body composition, resting metabolic rate (RMR), and physical activity (PA) between young and middle-aged Korean adults. [Methods] A total of 53 [male n=23, female n=30] subjects were included in this study, among whom 34 subjects were healthy young adults [male n=18, female n=16] and 19 were middle-aged adults [male n=5, female n=14]. The body composition and RMR of all the participants were measured after overnight fasting (≥8 h). The Korean version of the WHO Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ) was used to assess physical activity. [Results] Body composition was not significantly different between young adults and middle-aged adults. Whole-body bone mineral density and bone mineral contents (BMC) were significantly lower in middle-aged adults than in young adults. Total blood cholesterol (TC) and blood glucose levels were significantly higher in middle-aged adults (TC; 195.21 ± 43.34, glucose; 103.57 ± 12.61 mg/dL) than in young adults. RMR was significantly lower in middle-aged adults (1619.57 ± 290.28 kcal/day) than in young adults (1894.37 ± 405.00 kcal/day). In middle-aged adults physical activity (PA). PA (METs, min, EE) was inversely correlated with fat mass (FM, kg, and %) and blood triglyceride (TG) level in young adults. In middle-aged adults, PA showed a significant positive correlation with lean body mass (LBM), FM (%), and RMR. Furthermore, PA EE showed significant interrelatedness with BMC among middle-aged adults. [Conclusion] These results demonstrated that high PA levels enable LBM and RMR maintenance in middle-aged adults. Furthermore, in young adults, more PA is required to induce change in body composition.

  • 연구배경: 기존의 양압환기법은 기관내관이나 기관절개술을 통해서만 시행되어 왔으나 최근 이러한 인공기도에 의한 기도합병증을 피하기 위한 방법으로 안연 또는 코마스크를 환자~인공환기기 사이의 매체로 이용하는 비침습적 환기법 (noninvasive positive pressure ventilation, 이하 NIV라 함)이 시도되고 있다. 이에 저자 등응 급성호흡부전 환자들에서 NIV의 적용 가능성, 치료성공율 및 치료성공과 연관된 지표를 알아보고자 본 연구를 시행하였다. 방법: 대상응 급성 환기부전 (acute vemilarory failure, 이하 VF : $PaCO_2$ > 43 mrn Hg & pH < 7.35)이나 급성 산소화호흡부전 (acure oxygenarion failure, 이하 OF : $PaO_2/FIO_2$ < 300 mrn Hg & $pH{\geq}7.35$)으로 기계호흡이 필요했던 환자 106 예 중 NIV 시도가 가능한 환자 26명이었으며, 총 VF 19예 중 11 예 (57.9%) (남 : 여 =7 : 4, $55.4{\pm}14.6$세), 총 OF 87예 중 15 예 (17.2%) (남 : 여 =12 : 3, $50.6{\pm}15.6$세)에서 NIV 시도가 가능하였다. 결과: 1. 기관내삽관 없이 NIV로 기계호흡 이탈까지 성공한 환자는 VF에서 81.8% (9/11), OF에서 40%(6/15)였다. NIV 의 합병증은 코부위 피부괴사와 가스성 위장 팽대 각 1예씩 이었다. 2. 환기부전 환자의 NIV 성공 예 에서 분당호흡 수는 기저치에 비해 NIV 시작 12시간 후(각각 $34{\pm}9$회, $26{\pm}6$회, p=0.045)에 유의한 감소를 보였다. $PaCO_2$와 pH는 모두 기저치에 비해 NIV 시작 24시간 후($PaCO_2$ 각각 $87.3{\pm}20.6$, $81.2{\pm}9.1$ mm Hg, p < 0.05, pH 각각 $7.26{\pm}0.04$, $7.32{\pm}0.02$, p < 0.05)에 유의한 호전을 보였다. 3. 산소화부전에서 NIV가 성공한 6 예와 실패한 9 예에서 $PaCO_2$는 NIV 시작전 (각각 $59.8{\pm}9.2$, $76.0{\pm}22.8$ mm Hg), NIV 시작 후 30분 (각각 $121.5{\pm}20.2$, $99.6{\pm}35.8$ mm Hg,), 6시간 (각각 $100.0{\pm}26.4$, $76.2{\pm}22.3$ mm Hg) 및 12시간 ($88.7{\pm}28.7$, $74.3{\pm}16.7$ mm Hg)에 서로 유의한 차이가 없었으나 (모두 p > 0.05), $PaO_2/FIO_2$ 비는 NIV 성공 예에서는 각각 $120.0{\pm}19.6$, $218.9{\pm}98.3$, $191.3{\pm}55.2$$232.8{\pm}17.6$ mm Hg (p=0.0211)로 상승한 반면, 실패 예에서는 $127.9{\pm}63.0$, $116.8{\pm}24.4$, $100.6{\pm}34.6$$129.8{\pm}50.3$ mm Hg (p=0.5319)로 유의한 상승이 관찰되지 않았다. 결론: 비침습적 환기법은 급성 환기부전군에서 급성 산소화부전에 비해 적용성과 성공율이 높으며, 환기부전의 NIV 성공 예에서는 분당호흡수의 감소가 선행하고 $PaO_2$와 pH의 호전이 뒤따랐고 산소화부전에서는 NIV 시작 30분 후의 $PaO_2/FIO_2$ 비가 성공적 NIV 적용 여부의 한 예측 지표가 될 수 있을 것으로 사료되었다.

  • 소다석회유리의 성분인 SiO2, Na2O, CaO가 isokom 온도에 미치는 영향을 Lakatos 모델을 이용하여 분석하였다. CaO의 양이 일정하고, SiO2가 1 mol% 줄고 대신 Na2O가 1 mol% 증가할 때, log η = 12.3에서는 6℃, log η = 10에서는 7℃, log η = 6.6에서는 10℃, log η = 1에서는 24℃ isokom 온도가 낮아졌다. 그리고, Na2O의 양이 일정하고, SiO2가 1 mol% 줄고 대신 CaO가 1 mol% 증가할 때, log η = 12.3에서는 3~4℃, log η = 10에서는 2℃ isokom 온도가 높아지고, 반대로 log η = 6.6에서는 1℃, log η = 1에서는 21℃ isokom 온도가 낮아지는 것을 알았다.
