Symptomatic cerebral vasospasm (CVS) and delayed ischemic neurologic deficit (DIND) after unruptured aneurysm surgery are extremely rare. Its onset timing is variable, and its mechanisms are unclear. We report two cases of CVS with DIND after unruptured aneurysm surgery and review the literature regarding potential mechanisms. The first case is a 51-year-old woman with non-hemorrhagic vasospasm after unruptured left anterior communicating artery aneurysm surgery. She presented with delayed vasospasm on postoperative day 14. The second case is a 45-year-old woman who suffered from oculomotor nerve palsy caused by an unruptured posterior communicatig artery (PCoA) aneurysm. DIND with non-hemorrhagic vasospasm developed on postoperative day 12. To our knowledge, this is the first report of symptomatic CVS with oculomotor nerve palsy following unruptured PCoA aneurysm surgery. CVS with DIND after unruptured aneurysm surgery is very rare and can be triggered by multiple mechanisms, such as hemorrhage, mechanical stress to the arterial wall, or the trigemino-cerebrovascular system. For unruptured aneurysm surgery, although it is rare, careful observation and treatments can be needed for postoperative CVS with DIND.

A total of 67 watermelon accessions which include 37 accessions from Korean and 27 accessions from Turkish germplasm and 3 accessions of other related species from USA were investigated for morphological characteristics. The UPOV descriptor list for 56 characters (6 seedlings, 4 plants, 11 leaves, 5 flowers, 23 fruits and 7 seeds) was used in characterization. In addition, eight quantitative characters, hypocotyl length, cotyledon width, cotyledon length, fruit weight, fruit length, fruit width, thickness of outer layer of pericarp and soluble solid content were also measured. The 56 qualitatively scored characters were analyzed by principle coordinate analysis (PCoA) while the eight quantitative ones were subjected to principle component analysis (PCA). Morphological characterization result demonstrated that the accessions displayed high morphological diversity(how much percent?). A high level of phenotypic diversity was observed from the results of morphological characterization. However, plant growth habit and leaf blade flecking showed constant characters for all of the accessions. The Korean and Turkish watermelon genotypes are diverse groups and can be separated by both multivariate analysis of morphological characters although the grouping was more apparent in PCoS results.

The most controversial topics in plasma sprayed ceramic coating system are recently mechanical properties such as bond strength, cohesive strength, toughness and so on. Determination of bond strength of coatings is one of the most important problems. In the industry, the bond strength of coating system has been estimated by Pull-off test(ASTM standard C633-79). But, without a fixed jig and specimen, it is impossible to obtain the bond strength. Therefore, it is necessary to study the critical fracture load on interface of the coating by indentation test. Because the critical fracture load plays an important role in evaluating the bond strength for plasma sprayed ceramic coating system. So, we have estimated critical fracture load in plasma sprayed ceramic coating system, and it was shown that inverse relationship between the cross-section hardness of coating and the critical fracture load(Pc). In case of the high load(1kgf, 2kgf) in $Al_{2}O_{3}+13%TiO_{2}$, it was found that the critical point(Pco), which the coating was broken on.

Objective : The aim of study was to review our patient population to determine whether there is a critical aneurysm size at which the incidence of rupture increases and whether there is a correlation between aneurysm size and location. Methods : We reviewed charts and radiological findings (computed tomography (CT) scans, angiograms, CT angiography, magnetic resonance angiography) for all patients operated on for intracranial aneurysms in our hospital between September 2002 and May 2004. Of the 336 aneurysms that were reviewed, measurements were obtained from angiograms for 239 ruptured aneurysms by a neuroradiologist at the time of diagnosis in our hospital. Results : There were 115 male and 221 female patients assessed in this study. The locations of aneurysms were the middle cerebral artery (MCA, 61), anterior communicating artery (ACoA, 66), posterior communicating artery (PCoA, 52), the top of the basilar artery (15), internal carotid artery (ICA) including the cavernous portion (13), anterior choroidal artery (AChA, 7), A1 segment of the anterior cerebral artery (3), A2 segment of the anterior cerebral artery (11), posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA, 8), superior cerebellar artery (SCA, 2), P2 segment of the posterior cerebral artery (1), and the vertebral artery (2). The mean diameter of aneurysms was $5.47{\pm}2.536\;mm$ in anterior cerebral artery (ACA), $6.84{\pm}3.941\;mm$ in ICA, $7.09{\pm}3.652\;mm$ in MCA and $6.21{\pm}3.697\;mm$ in vertebrobasilar artery. The ACA aneurysms were smaller than the MCA aneurysms. Aneurysms less than 6 mm in diameter included 37 (60.65%) in patients with aneurysms in the MCA, 43 (65.15%) in patients with aneurysms in the ACoA and 29 (55.76%) in patients with aneurysms in the PCoA. Conclusion : Ruptured aneurysms in the ACA were smaller than those in the MCA. The most prevalent aneurysm size was 3-6 mm in the MCA (55.73%), 3-6 mm in the ACoA (57.57%) and 4-6 mm in the PCoA (42.30%). The more prevalent size of the aneurysm to treat may differ in accordance with the location of the aneurysm.

The Korean National Agrobiodiversity Center holds the more than 1300 accessions of proso millet, but a large portion of accessions are landrace of Korea that has very similar traits. To comprehend the maximum genetic diversity of this crop, a core collection with minimum number of accessions will facilitate easy access to genetic material. Here we assessed the genetic diversity and population structure in a germplasm collection of 830 accessions by employing EST-SSR markers and morphological traits. A total of 107 alleles were detected with an average allele number of 4.9 per locus among the 830 accessions based on 37 EST-SSR markers. The number of alleles per locus ranged from 2 to 7. Polymorphism information content and expected heterozygosity ranged from 0.06 to 0.68 (mean = 0.21) and 0.06 to 0.73 (mean = 0.23), respectively. The germplasm collection was separated into two groups based on population structure analysis, whereas principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) could not cluster accessions according to their geographic origin. Subsequently, a preliminarily developed core collection with a total of 141 accessions (17%) was selected from the whole set of germplasm by combining allelic variations of EST-SSR markers and eight different phenotypic traits. The core collection optimally represented the whole germplasm collection and displayed a similar level of PCoA value and genetic variation from the initial collection. The results obtained here provide a primary resource for further genetic analysis and establish a reference for further development of appropriate genetic breeding strategies.

본 연구의 목적은 환경담배연기를 대표하는 주요 오염물질 중에 하나인 니코틴의 분해를 위해서 산화티타늄 광촉매를 적용할 수 있는지 여부에 대하여 기술적 평가하는 것이다. 광촉매로 코팅된 건축자재를 이용하여 니코틴을 분해하는 정도를 평가하기 위하여 네 개의 기초 실험을 수행하였다. 니코틴의 광촉매 분해와 관련된 다음의 다섯 변수를 조사하였다: 코팅 타일의 건조조건, 코팅 졸의 종류, 코팅횟수, 상대습도, 그리고 초기농도. 변수 시험에 앞서, 실험장치에 대한 니코틴의 흡착 여부를 평가하였다. 본 연구에서 조사된 변수 모두가 니코틴의 광산화분해능에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 낮은 온도와 긴 건조시간 조건과 비교할 때 높은 온도와 짧은 건조시간 조건에서 건조된 타일에서 보다 높은 니코틴 분해효율을 나타내었다. ST-KO3 졸로 코팅된 타일이 E-T 졸로 코팅된 타일 보다 높은 분해효율을 나타내었다. 코팅횟수가 증가할수록 광산화분해가 잘 일어났다. 높은 상대습도와 낮은 유입농도 조건에서 광산화분해가 잘 일어났다. 결과적으로, 환경담배연기에 포함된 니코틴을 광촉매로 코팅된 건축자재를 적용할 때에는 본 연구에서 평가된 다섯 가지 변수가 모두 고려되어야함이 제안되었다.

건강한 성인 83명을 무작위로 선정하여 실시한 신경전도속도 검사에서 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1) 상지의 정중신경에서는 운동신경의 TL이 3.0-4.2msec 이고, MNCV는 각각 52.1-70.3m/sec(W-E), 44.6-71.0m/sec(E-Ax), 56.6-70.8m/sec(W-E), 50.5-75.1m/sec(E-Ax)이며, CNAP의 진폭은 $6.5-46.1{\mu}V$였다. 2) 척골신경에서는 운동신경의 TL이 2.4-3.4msec이고, MNCV는 각각 54.6-72.8m/sec(W-E), 41.1-64.9m/sec(E-Ax)1987년 3월부터 동년 12월까지 영남대학교 의과대학 부속병원에서 시행된 개심술마취 40례를 대상으로 저체온 체외순환시 저체온상태의 동맥혈과 정맥혈을 동시에 각각 채혈하여 $37^{\circ}C$ 혈액가스분석기로 측정한 비보정치와 환자의 실제 저체온으로 보정한 보정치를 각각 얻어 이를 비교하여 보았던 바 보정치가 비보정치에 비하여 pH는 높았고 이산화탄소분압과 산소분압은 낮았으며 $HCO_{3^-}$, 염기과잉, 이산화탄소분압 및 산소포화도는 온도보정에 영향을 받지 않았다. 이상의 결과로 미루어 보아 저체온상태의 혈액가스분석시 pH와 이산화탄소분압에 대한 온도보정의 영향은 크며, 저온상태에서의 pH 중심점이동과 산염기가 환자상태에 미치는 영향을 고려한다면 환자실제 저체온으로의 온도보정은 필요치 않을 것 같으며 오히려 $37^{\circ}C$ 비보정치로 판독하여 환자상태를 판정하는 것이 임상적으로는 더 타당한 방법이라 사료된다.

Objective : To evaluate the morphometry of the anterior thalamoperforating arteries (ATPA). Methods : A microanatomical study was performed in 79 specimens from 42 formalin-fixed adult cadaver brains. The origins of the ATPAs were divided into anterior, middle, and posterior segments according to the crowding pattern. The morphometry of the ATPAs, including the premammillary artery (PMA), were examined under a surgical microscope. Results : The anterior and middle segments of the ATPAs arose at mean intervals of $1.75{\pm}1.62$ mm and $5.86{\pm}2.05$ mm from the internal carotid artery (ICA), and the interval between these segments was a mean of $3.17{\pm}1.64$ mm. The posterior segment arose at a mean interval of $2.43{\pm}1.46$ mm from the posterior cerebral artery (PCA), and the interval between the middle and posterior segments was a mean of $3.45{\pm}1.39$ mm. The mean numbers of perforators were $2.66{\pm}1.19$, $3.03{\pm}1.84$, and $1.67{\pm}0.98$ in the anterior, middle, and posterior segments, respectively. The PMA originated from the middle segment in 66% of cases. A perforator-free zone was located >2 mm from the ICA in 30.4% and >2 mm from the PCA in 67.1% of cases. Conclusion : Most perforators arose from the anterior and middle segments, within the anterior two-thirds of the posterior communicating artery (PCoA). The safest perforator-free zone was located closest to the PCA. These anatomical findings may be helpful to verify safety when treating lesions around the PCoA and in the interpeduncular fossa.

Objective: This research was conducted to study the genetic diversity in several Indonesian cattle breeds using microsatellite markers to classify the Indonesian cattle breeds. Methods: A total of 229 DNA samples from of 10 cattle breeds were used in this study. The polymerase chain reaction process was conducted using 12 labeled primers. The size of allele was generated using the multiplex DNA fragment analysis. The POPGEN and CERVUS programs were used to obtain the observed number of alleles, effective number of alleles, observed heterozygosity value, expected heterozygosity value, allele frequency, genetic differentiation, the global heterozygote deficit among breeds, and the heterozygote deficit within the breed, gene flow, Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, and polymorphism information content values. The MEGA program was used to generate a dendrogram that illustrates the relationship among cattle population. Bayesian clustering assignments were analyzed using STRUCTURE program. The GENETIX program was used to perform the correspondence factorial analysis (CFA). The GENALEX program was used to perform the principal coordinates analysis (PCoA) and analysis of molecular variance. The principal component analysis (PCA) was performed using adegenet package of R program. Results: A total of 862 alleles were detected in this study. The INRA23 allele 205 is a specific allele candidate for the Sumba Ongole cattle, while the allele 219 is a specific allele candidate for Ongole Grade. This study revealed a very close genetic relationship between the Ongole Grade and Sumba Ongole cattle and between the Madura and Pasundan cattle. The results from the CFA, PCoA, and PCA analysis in this study provide scientific evidence regarding the genetic relationship between Banteng and Bali cattle. According to the genetic relationship, the Pesisir cattle were classified as Bos indicus cattle. Conclusion: All identified alleles in this study were able to classify the cattle population into three clusters i.e. Bos taurus cluster (Simmental Purebred, Simmental Crossbred, and Holstein Friesian cattle); Bos indicus cluster (Sumba Ongole, Ongole Grade, Madura, Pasundan, and Pesisir cattle); and Bos javanicus cluster (Banteng and Bali cattle).

Background: This study investigated the effect of soil properties and soil bacterial community on early growth characteristics of wild-simulated ginseng (Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer) in coniferous and mixed forest experimental fields. Methods and Results: The soil bacterial community was analyzed using a high throughput sequencing technique (Illumina MiSeq sequencing). The relationship between the soil bacterial community, soil properties, and growth characteristics of wild-simulated ginseng were analyzed using principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) and the Pearson's correlation analysis. Soil properties and soil bacterial community showed significant difference with forest physiognomy. Results of Pearson's correlation analysis and PCoA showed that the soil properties (soil pH, organic matter, total nitrogen, and cation exchange capacity) and soil bacterial community had significant correlation with tree species ratio and early growth characteristics of wild-simulated ginseng. Conclusions: This study clearly demonstrated the effect of soil properties and soil bacterial community on early growth characteristics of wild-simulated ginseng in coniferous and mixed forest. Moreover, these results will help in the selection of suitable cultivation sites for wild-simulated ginseng.
