  • Two experiments on commercial broiler chickens (3-37 d) and WL layers (252-364 d) were conducted to study the relative bioavailability of phosphorus (P) from different P supplements in comparison to tricalcium phosphate (TCP), at constant dietary calcium (Ca):P ratio. The P sources tested were dicalcium phosphate (DCP), steam sterilized bone meal (SSBM), commercial mineral mixture (CMM), phosphoric acid (PA) and a combination of CMM + PA. Fluorine (F) content in CMM and SSBM was 13.12 and 0.14 g/kg, respectively. In commercial broiler diets, DCP, SSBM or PA could be used as supplemental P sources without affecting (p<0.05) weight gain, feed intake, tibia ash and, P and Ca contents in tibia ash when compared to TCP. Severity of leg abnormality and deposition of F in bone were higher (p<0.05) in group fed CMM. P retention and serum inorganic P content was significantly reduced (p<0.05) in CMM fed birds compared to those fed TCP, SSBM, PA or CMM+PA. Among other P sources (TCP, SSBM, PA and CMM+PA) the serum inorganic P levels did not vary significantly (p<0.05). The P retention also significantly reduced in CMM fed groups compared to those fed DCP or PA. The P retention significantly increased from 0.183 to 0.216 units by supplementation of PA to CMM diet. In layers, egg production was not affected by replacing TCP with DCP, SSBM, PA or CMM+PA, but significantly (p<0.05) reduced with CMM. Feed (kg)/kg egg mass, egg weight, shell quality (shell weight and shell thickness) and serum Ca levels were not influenced by dietary variation in P source. The poor performance of both broilers and layers fed on CMM based diets could be attributed to the presence of hlgher levels of F (647.8 and 630.1 mg/kg, respectively) and low P utilization. Based on growth, bone mineralization and P retention it is concluded that DCP, SSBM or PA can be used as alternatives to TCP in broiler diets. In WL layer diets, in addition to above P sources, CMM can also be used as supplemental P source by replacing one half of P from CMM with PA without affecting egg production and shell quality.

  • 본 연구는 우사의 향방에 의한 사육장 바닥면의 조건이 육우의 생산성에 미치는 영향을 구명할 목적으로 체중 570kg 내외의 거세한우 16두를 남, 북향 톱밥 자리깃 사육장에 각 8두씩 임의배치하고, 16주일간 사양시험을 실시한 후 증체율, 사료효율 및 도축성적을 분석하였던 바 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 투광성이 양호한 남향 사육장의 바닥면은 시험기간 중 표면의 건조 상태가 좋았으나 햇볕의 효과가 적은 북향 사육장은 결빙기 이전까지 다습하고 불규칙한 표면 상태를 나타내다가 결빙기에는 표면이 심하게 돌출 된 상태로 결빙되어 비육우의 휴식과 거동에 지장을 주었다. 남향 사육장과 북향 사육장에 수용된 거세우의 두당 일 평균 사료섭취량은 각각 10.39kg 및 10.32kg으로서 유의차가 없었으나 일당증체량은 각각 0.75kg과 0.64kg으로 나타나 표면 상태가 불량한 북향사육장이 14.3% 적었으며(p<0.05), 사료요구율은 각각 13.91 및 16.12로서 15.9%가 증가하였다(p<0.05). 또한 증체당 TDN 섭취량(TDN/gain)은 각각 11.47 및 13.25로 나타나 사료이용효율은 15.5%가량 저하되었다. 한편, 남쪽과 북쪽 사육장에서 사육된 거세우간의 출하체중, 도체중량, 도체율, 육량등급 및 육질의 통계적 차이는 나타나지 않았다. 결론적으로, 사육장의 위치로 인하여 바닥표면의 상태가 불량한 조건의 깔짚 축적식 우사에서 비육말기 거세우를 사육할 경우, 활동에너지 소비량의 증가와 휴식 시 접촉면을 통한 전도열의 손실요인이 발생하여 증체율 및 사료효율이 크게 저하될 수 있다는 점이 본 연구를 통해 밝혀졌다. 이러한 결과는 육우사육에서 축사의 방향 및 지붕자재 선정의 중요성을 시사한다.

  • This paper summarises theoretical and experimental work on the feedback control of sound radiation from honeycomb panels using piezoceramic actuators. It is motivated by the problem of sound transmission in aircraft, specifically the active control of trim panels. Trim panels are generally honeycomb structures designed to meet the design requirement of low weight and high stiffness. They are resiliently-mounted to the fuselage for the passive reduction of noise transmission. Local coupling of the closely-spaced sensor and actuator was observed experimentally and modelled using a single degree of freedom system. The effect of the local coupling was to roll-off the response between the actuator and sensor at high frequencies, so that a feedback control system can have high gain margins. Unfortunately, only relatively poor global performance is then achieved because of localisation of reduction around the actuator. This localisation prompts the investigation of a multichannel active control system. Globalised reduction was predicted using a model of 12 channel direct velocity feedback control. The multichannel system, however, does not appear to yield a significant improvement in the performance because of decreased gain margin.

  • This study was conducted to compare the effects of feeding high protein and low energy milk replacer (HPR; CP 25%, ME 3.6 Mcal/kg DM) with low protein and high energy milk replacer (HPR; CP 21%, ME 4.2 Mcal/kg DM) on feed consumption, body weight (BW) gain, health and selected blood metabolites in Holstein calves during the pre-weaning period. At each feeding, each milk replacer (MR) was prepared by mixing 0.125 kg of dry MR in 1L of warm ($60^{\circ}C$) water. The calves were fed either HPR (n = 10) or HER (n = 10) using mobile plastic bottles fitted with soft rubber nipples. All calves received 1.8L diluted MR at each feeding 3 times daily during the first 4 weeks of age; feeding frequency was reduced to 2 times daily for the next 2 weeks of age and then to once daily during the last week of the experiment. Jugular blood was sampled in calves at day 7, 14, 21, 35 and 49 of age to enumerate selected metabolites. Daily MR, starter and hay intake during the pre-weaning period were similar in calves fed HPR and HER. Consumption of starter, MGH and total DM steadily increased with the age of calves. Final BW, daily BW gain and feed efficiency of calves were not affected by treatments. Serum glucose, cholesterol, creatinine were decreased (p<0.05) and blood urea N was increased (p<0.05) in calves fed HER or HPR as they grew older. Serum glucose, total protein and albumin concentrations in calves were not affected by treatments. Serum GPT and GOT concentrations were higher (p<0.05) in calves on HPR than on HER. Scouring score, days scoured, respiratory score, rectal temperature and general appearance were similar in calves fed HPR and HER. Poor general appearance (dullness and droopy ears) of calves fed either HPR or HER reflected nutritional insufficiency and stress. In conclusion, energy and protein concentrations in MR did not affect feed intake and BW gain in Holstein calves during the pre-weaning period. Poor general appearance and lower BW gain of calves compared to those reported in the literature for milk fed calves prompt a demand for further research to improve the daily nutrient supply to MR-fed calves.

  • 목 적 : 극소 저체중 출생아(very low birth weight infants, VLBWIs)의 자궁 외 성장지연(extrauterine growth restriction, EUGR)은 NICU에서 중요한 문제로 제기되고 있고, 향후 성장과 뇌신경발달 이상과 관련이 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구는 단일 기관에서의 NICU에서 EUGR의 빈도와 위험요인들을 조사하고 분석하여, 교정이 가능한 요인들을 찾아보고자 하였다. 방 법: 2005년 11월부터 2009년 4월까지 만 3년 6개월간 서울대학교 병원에서 출생하여 서울대학교 NICU에 입원하였던 출생 체중 1,500 g 미만이면서 출생 시재태 주령이 32주 이하인 VLBWIs의 의무기록지를 후향적인 방법으로 조사하였다. 퇴원시의 체중이 그 시점의 자궁 내 재태 주령에 해당하는 체중에 비해 10백분위 수 미만일 때 EUGR로 정의하였다. 결 과:전체 대상 환아 중 EUGR은 67% (111/166)였고, EUGR과 관련된 요인들을 다변량 분석을 하였을 때 SGA여부가 EUGR의 가장 큰 위험요소였고(OR 9.9, P=0.000), 출생 체중과 생후 첫 28일까지 kg당 하루평균 체중 증가가 적은 것도 EUGR의 독립적인 위험요소였다(P=0.034, P=0.003). SGA가 아닌 환아들의 56% (64/114)에서 EUGR이 되었기 때문에 non-SGA 그룹에서도 EUGR의 예측 요인들을 분석하였다. Non-SGA 그룹에서 적은 출생 체중과 호흡곤란증후군, 저혈압, 패혈증과 같은 질병 이환이 EUGR과 관련된 위험요인들이었고, 다변량 분석하였을 때, non-SGA 그룹에서 도 생후 첫 28일까지 kg당 하루 평균 체중 증가가 적은 것이 독립적인 EUGR의 위험요인이었다(P=0.001). 결 론:극소 저체중아에서 EUGR의 유병률은 높았고, SGA 여부가 EUGR의 가장 중요한 위험 요소였다. Non-SGA 환아들의 반 이상에서도 EUGR이 발생하였고, 생후 첫 28일간 kg당 하루 평균 체중 증가가 적은 것이 중요한 예측 요인이어서 생후 초반에 적절한 성장이 이루어지지 않으면 이후에 따라잡기 성장이 힘든 것을 알 수 있었다. 극소 저체중아의 생후 초반기는 임상적으로 불안정한 시기여서 영양 공급과 성장의 문제가 뒷전에 놓일 수 있지만, EUGR의 발생과 관련하여 초기 영양 공급의 적절성에 대한 모니터 및 교정이 좀 더 적극적으로 필요하다.

  • Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a multisystemic complex disorder characterized by hyperphagia and impaired satiety which lead to severe and early obesity. In infancy, hypotonia and poor suck are main problems, and a child goes through Failure-to-thrive. During childhood, clinical manifestations change to food seeking as well as excessive weight gain, short stature, developmental delay, cognitive disability and behavioral problems. Also, growth hormone insufficiency is frequent. Most patients receive the recombinant growth hormone (rGH) therapy that provides improvement in growth, body composition, and physical attributes. The clinical care guideline for rGH therapy in PWS had been noticed in 2013. The rGH therapy helps in body fat, lean body mass, height SDS and head circumference. Also, the rGH therapy helps motor function, psychomotor development and cognition and behavioral issues.In Samsung medical center, there are clinical care guidelines for rGH therapy in PWS and an useful application for the patients. 'Living with PWS', the name of an moblie application for PWS patients, was introduced in the lecture. The application revised to version 2. It was made more convenient to users than in version 1. It helps caregivers to schedule the rGH therapy and to monitor height and weight.

  • Background: Liquid feeding system has been introduced to domestic swine farms, but negative cognition about liquid feeding system has been remained for feed waste decay related with poor management and microbial contamination. For these reasons, this study was conducted to evaluate the effects of feeding method in lactating sows. Methods: A total of 30 mixed-parity (average 4.13) lactating sows (Yorkshire ${\times}$ Landrace) with an initial BW of $218.8{\pm}19.5kg$ was used in a 3 week trial. Sows were allotted to 1 of 2 treatments in a completely randomized design by their body weight, backfat thickness, parity and alive litter weight. One of treatments was dry feeding and the other was liquid feeding (water to feed ratio, 1:1). Experimental diets contained 3265 kcal ME/kg, 12.6 % CP, 5.76 % EE, 1.09 % total lysine, 0.25 % total methionine, as fed basis. Results: Dry feeding treatment had high body weight loss rather than liquid feeding treatment (P = 0.04). Dry feeding treatment had tendency to increase litter weight at 21d of lactation (P = 0.06) and litter weight gain (P = 0.04) during lactation period (0-3 week). Sows fed dry feeding method made milk containing high content of casein and total solid rather than sows fed liquid feeding method (P = 0.04). In addition, dry feeding treatment had tendency to higher content of milk fat, protein and solid not fat on 21d of lactation (P = 0.07). Sows fed dry feeding type also showed higher milk energy content in milk of 21d lactation (P = 0.05). Furthermore, liquid feeding treatment showed high occurrence in feed waste during lactation period (P <0.01). Conclusion: Dry feeding method was more suitable feeding method to lactating sows under high temperature environment like lactating barn.

  • Purpose : Cachexia, is a complex metabolic syndrome associated with underlying illness and characterized by loss of muscle with or without loss of fat mass. Patients with cachxia shows various symptoms including fatigue, anxiety, pain, sleep disorders, and poor appetite. Medications therapy, dietary and exercise therapy, and emotional support are recommended to treat patients with cachexia. However, evidence-based research verifying the role of exercise therapy in patients with cachexia is limited. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of therapeutic exercise on fatigue and anxiety in patients with cachexia. Methods : Case report. A 29-year-old woman was diagnosed with cachexia. Following 2 weeks of inpatient and 4 weeks of out-patient treatment. we assessed her weight, as well as pain, fatigue, and anxiety level. As an the patient exercised for an hour 5 times a week for 2 weeks,-and during the outpatient visit, she exercised for an hour twice a week for 4 weeks. Her weight was measured using a weighting scale. Pain was assessed using the visual analog scale, and fatigue and anxiety levels were assessed using questionnaires. Results : Following 6 weeks of treatment, exercise therapy a positively affected the patient's weight, as well as pain, fatigue, and anxiety levels. We observed a weight gain of 4.5 kg, pain reduction of 5.1 points. Fatigue reduction of 43 points, anxiety reduction of total 41 points. Conclusion : Exercise therapy positively affects weight, as well as pain, fatigue, and anxiety levels in patients with cachexia. However, generalization of this observation is inappropriate based on this single case study.
