A 2-month-old intact male Pitbull terrier (weighing 1.01 kg) were referred with primary complaints of severe abdominal distension, exercise intolerance, retarded growth, yellow nasal discharge and anorexia. Diagnostic imaging studies found enlarged right atrium partitioned by abnormal membrane, severe pulmonic systolic jets (5.66 m/s of peak velocity) and right-to-left blood shunt at the inter-atrial septum. Based on clinical and diagnostic findings, the case was diagnosed as cor triatriatum dexter complicated with severe pulmonic stenosis and right-to-left shunted patent foramen ovale. Either surgical or interventional therapy has not been attempted, because of unstable patient's condition. Using blood transfusion, oxygen supply and cardiac medications (i.e., sildenafil, spironolactone, enalapril), the dog was recovered.

Environmental policy implementation has been strengthened to protect the source waters in Korea and to improve their water quality. Increasing of non-point source caused water quality problem continuously. Research on runoff from forests, which occupy over 65% of the land in korea, is insufficient, and studies on the characteristics and influences of storm runoff are necessary. In this study, we chose to compare the effects of land use in the form of two types of forest distribution and then gathered data on storm characteristics and runoff properties during rainfall events in these areas. Furthermore, the significance and influences of the discharges were analyzed through correlation analysis, and multilateral runoff characteristics were examined by deducing a formula through $COD_{Mn}$ and TOC regression analysis. At two forest points, for which the basin areas differed from each other, flow changed according to storm quantity and intensity. The peak discharge at point A, where the basin area was big, was high, whereas water-quality fundamental items (BOD, $COD_{Mn}$, and SS) and TOC density were high at point B where the slope and storm intensity were high. Effects of dissolved organic matter were determined through correlation analysis, and the regression formulas for $COD_{Mn}$ and TOC were deduced by regression analysis. It is expected that the data from this study could be useful as basic information in establishing forest management measures.

Background: Subcutaneous injection of 5% formalin into the hind paw of the rat produces a biphasic nociceptive response. The second phase depends on changes in the dorsal horn cell function that occur shortly after an initial C-fiber discharge, spinal sensitization, or windup phenomenon. This study was performed to investigate the role of glutamate during spinal sensitization. Methods: Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 200 to 250 g were used for this study. Under light anesthesia (0.5% isoflurane) the rats were segregated in a specially designed cage and $50{\mu}l$ 0.5% formalin was injected subcutaneously in the foot dorsum of right hindlimb. Forty minutes after the formalin injection, the rat was quickly decapitated and spinal cord was removed. The spinal segments at the level of L3 (largest area) was collected and stored in a deep freezer ($-70^{\circ}C$). The mRNA gene expression of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) and the metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 5 (mGluR5) were determined by the polymerase chain reaction. Results: The number of flinches was $19.8{\pm}2.3/min$. at one minute after formalin injection and decreased to zero after then. The second peak appeared at 35 and 40 minutes after formalin injection. The values were $17.8{\pm}2.2$ and $17.2{\pm}3.0/min$. The mRNA gene expressions of NMDAR and mGluR5 were increased by $459.0{\pm}46.8%$ (P < 0.01) and $111.1{\pm}4.8%$ (P > 0.05) respectively at 40 minutes after formalin injection. The increased rate of NMDAR was significantly higher than that of mGluR5 (P < 0.01). Conclusions: From these results it suggested that NMDAR partly contributed to the mechanism of central sensitization after the formalin test but mGluR5 did not.

As the Jamsu-bridge and the floodplains of the Han River can be flooded during the rainy season, the exact prediction of the peak flood time is very important for mitigation of flood hazard. This study analyzes the effect of outflow of Paldang Dam and tide of Yellow Sea on the Han River. A target area is from the Paldang dam to Jeonryu gauging station. Water level of Jeonryu as a downstream boundary condition was estimated through multi linear regression analysis with outflow of Paldang dam and tide level of Incheon, because it was influenced by both a tide of Yellow Sea and outflow of Paldang dam. In this study, Water Level Rising Travel Time of the Jamsu-bridge and some floodplains in the Han River are estimated. Also, The second order polynomial expressions for relationships of outflow of Paldang Dam and Water Level Rising Travel Time were developed considering the outflow of Paldang dam and tide of Yellow Sea.

This study was attempted to derivate empirical formulas for the runoff: ratio during ilood. season at three watersheds of Dan Yang, Chung Ju, and Yeo Ju are located at upper, middle, and lower portion of Nam Han river basin, respectively. Obtained formulas for flood runoff ratio can be applied as an element for the estimation, peak discharge for the design of various hydraulics structures which can be concidented with meteorological and topographical condition. The obtained through this study were analyzed as follows. 1.It was found that the magnitude of runoff ratio depends on the amount of rainfall for all studying basins. 2.Empirical formulas 'for the runoff' ratio were derivated as 1- 2,707 Rt0.345, 1-1.691 Rt0.242 and 1-1.807 Rt0.227 at Dan Yang, Chung Ju and Yeo Ju watershed, respectively. 3.The magnitude of runoff ratio was appeared in the order of Dan Yang, Chung Ju, and Yeo Ju are located at upper, middle and lower portion of Nam Han rivet basin, respectively. 4.It was assumed that in general the more it rains, the lesser becomes the ratio of loss rainfall. Especially, the ratio of loss rainfall for Dan Yang, upper portion of river basin was shown as the lowest among three watersheds. Besides, the magnitude of that was appeared in the order of Chung Ju and Yeo Ju watershed located at middle, and lower part of river basin, respectively. 5.Relative and standard errors of runoff ratio calculated by empirical formulas were shown to be within ten percent to the observed runoff ratio in all watersheds. 6.It is urgently essential that the effect of antecedent rainfall have an influence on the next coming flood should be studied in near future.

Generation characteristics of electrospray droplets for highly viscous liquid have been investigated by measuring size distributions of droplets emitted from the Taylor cone using glycerol solutions with various conductivities. Because of very small volatility of glycerol, droplet sizes can be measured by an aerodynamic size spectrometer (TSI Aerosizer DSP) with negligible evaporation of droplets. For highly conducting and viscous liquid, the sizes of the droplets electrosprayed from the Taylor cone are found to be relatively insensitive to applied voltages and the electrosprays assisted by the corona discharge call produce monodisperse droplets as long as the corona intensity is not too high. Near the minimum flow rate where a liquid cone is stable, the spray tends to consist of a one -peak monodisperse distribution of drop lets. However, at high flow rates, the spray bifurcates into bimodal distributions, which are consistent with the result of the previous study for less viscous liquids than our liquids. For liquid flow rates (Q) below 1 nl/s, the measured droplet diameters by the aerosizer are in the range of 0.30 to 1.2 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ for the glycerol solutions. The diameters of monodisperse droplets scale approximately with $r^*=Q_$\tau$(Q$\tau$){^1/3}$ where $r^*$ is a characteristic length and $\tau$is the electrical relaxation time of the fluid. However, when compared with several represe ntative scaling laws, the droplet diameters are two to six factors greater than those predicted by the scaling laws. This may be closely related to the combined effect of the much higher viscosity and the electrical charge on the jet breakup of glycerol so solution.

Sumber Jaya (54,194 hectares) is a district in West Lampung, Indonesia, located at the upper part of Tulang Bawang watershed. This watershed is one major water resource for Lampung Province, but has become a focal point of discussion because of the widespread conversion of forestland to coffee plantations and human settlements which lead to environmental and hydrological problems. This research aimed to evaluate Sumber Jaya watershed affecting by rapid land use change using hydrological methods as a base for watershed management. Nested catchment structure consisted of eight sub-catchments was employed in this research to assess scaling issues of land use change impacts on rainfall-runoff connections. Six tipping bucket rain gages were installed on the hill slopes of each sub-catchment and Parshall flumes were installed at the outlets of each sub-catchment to monitor stream flow. First, unit hydrograph that expressed the relationship of rainfall and runoff was computed using IHACRES model. Second, unit hydrograph was also constructed from observations of input and response during several significant storms with approximately equal duration. The result showed that most of the storm flow from these catchments consisted of slow flow. A maximum of about 50% of the effective rainfall became quick flow, and only less than 10% of remaining effective rainfall which was routed as slow flow contributed to hydrograph peaks; the rest was stored. Also, comparing peak responses and recession rates on the hydrograph, storm flow discharge was generally increased slowly on the rising limb and decreased rapidly on the falling limb. These responses indicated the soils in these catchments were still able to hold and store rain water.

We stabilized the frequency and power of a CW radio-frequency-excited $CO_2$ laser on the peak of the Doppler broadened gain curve using the photoacoustic effect generated from the laser itself. The condenser microphone is installed in the radio frequency discharge chamber to detect a photoacoustic signal. The photoacoustic signal is fed to a lock-in stabilizer as a reference signal for stabilization. The frequency stability is estimated to be better then 5.4${\times}$10$^{-8}$ at the P(20) line. The stabilized output variation was reduced 9.3%, compared to 100% for a free running laser.

Phytoplankton communities were investigated 13 times during the period from November, 1995 to December, 1996 in the coastal area of Kori. A total of 162 taxa (including unidentified species) were observed； 120 diatoms, 3 silicoflagellates, 34 dinoflagellates, 2 euglenoids, 1 chlorophyte and 2 unidentified microflagellates. A diatom species, Skeletonema costatum (Greville) Clove dominated all the year round. The standing stocks of phytoplankton ranged from 94 cells/ml in August to 1059 cells/ml in July. The peaks of standing stocks occurred in February and July. The effects of thermal effluent to the phytoplankton communities changed seasonally and might affect increasing the standing stocks where about 1 ∼ 3 km from the discharge of Kori Nuclear Power Plant in autumn and winter. But the effects of thermal effluent must be negative in summer.
