목 적 : 비만은 고혈압의 위험 인자로서 소아 청소년기의 비만이 성인기의 비만으로 발전하기 때문에 결국 소아 청소년기의 비만으로 심혈관계 등 여러 문제가 유발된다고 볼 수 있다. 따라서 소아 청소년기 비만증에서 정확한 혈압의 측정은 매우 중요하겠다. 본 연구에서는 소아 청소년 비만 환자들을 대상으로 수시 혈압 측정으로 선별 검사한 후 이들의 24시간 혈압을 측정함으로 ABPM의 유용성과 의미에 대해 고찰해보고자 하였다. 방 법 : 2006년 2월 1일부터 2007년 12월 1일까지 한동대학교 선린병원의 소아 청소년과를 방문하여 ABPM을 시행한 모든 환자들을 대상으로 하였다. 자료의 분석은 수축기, 이완기 혈압측정을 수면 혈압과 이를 제외한 각성 혈압으로 나누어 분석하였고 야간 혈압 강하(night dip)를 평가하였다. 환자는 정상군(1군)과 체질량계수만 95 백분위수가 넘는 비만군(2군) 그리고 비만이면서 외래혈압이 120/80 mmHg이상인 비만 위험혈압군(3군)으로 구분하였다. 결 과 : ABPM을 시행한 환자는 모두 49명이었고 비만군이 18명이었고 비만 위험혈압군이 12명이었다. 정상군은 19명이었다. 각 군의 수축기 평균혈압을 비교하였을 때 모든 군에서 통계학적으로 의미 있는 차이를 나타내었고(1군, $105.1{\pm}4.7$; 2군, $111.0{\pm}7.1$; 3군, $117.8{\pm}6.6mmHg$), 이완기 평균 혈압의 경우 1군과 3군에서만 통계학적으로 의미 있는 차이를 나타내었다($69.1{\pm}5.3$, $77.9{\pm}6.3mmHg$). 각성 혈압을 비교한 결과도 1군과 3군간에만 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었다. 수면혈압인 경우 수축기 혈압은 3군이 1, 2군에 비해 통계적으로 유의하게 높았으나, 이완기 혈압은 다른 경우와 마찬가지로 1군과 3군간에만 유의한 차이가 있었다. 본 연구에서 각 군간에 야간 혈압 강하를 조사해보니 통계적으로 의미 있는 차이를 보이지 않았다. 결 론 : 본 연구에서 ABPM을 시행한 결과 비만 위험혈압군에서 통계적으로 유의하게 혈압이 높았다. 소아 청소년에서, 특히 향후 심혈관 질환 및 여러 질환의 위험인자로 알려진 비만아에서 ABPM의 적극적인 활용이 필요로 하겠다.

Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power Co. (KHNP) has developed and implemented the maintenance effectiveness monitoring (MR) programs for the operating nuclear power plants. The MR program is developed by reflecting design characteristics of the operating nuclear power plants to monitor the plant performance for improving the safety and reliability. Recently, KHNP has built a new nuclear power plant, and developed the MR program to establish the advanced maintenance system by reflecting unique design characteristics based on the OPR1000 standard model. So, the MR program developed in this study has another characteristics in comparison with the OPR1000 standard model, and we will verify the suitability of the MR program through evaluating initial performance of the plant. The safety and reliability of the new plant will be improved by developing and implementing the MR program.

This study analyzed data on the pore water pressure, the ground water level, the horizontal displacement and the resistivity monitoring from instrument system, which is established to evaluate the safety in reservoirs. The pore water pressure in the embankment ranged from $0.035{\sim}1.116kg/cm^2$. The seepage that piping showed, as well as the leakage from the reservoirs are acceptable for the safety management of the reservoir. The maximum horizontal displacement and direction analyzed from the measured inclinometer data gives us very effective information to evaluate the safety in reservoirs. The resistivity monitoring technique, which is obtained on the reservoir crest, is an efficient tool to detect leakage zone. The safety index (SI) was predicted by the resistivity monitoring, and was evaluated to have a safety level of 0.8-1.0 at all reservoirs. Safety evaluations of reservoir through instrument systems are effective when studying the embankment, when the results of the instrument system have been analyzed compositively.

In this paper, we present a real-time remote patient monitoring service through world-wide web, which allows the medical doctor to monitor his patients in remote sites using popular web browsers. The real-time service consists of two services: Patient Locator Service (PLS) and Vital Sign Monitoring Service (VSMS). The PLS provides the information of patients currently being monitored. The VSMS allows the user to observe a stream of vital sign data of a specific patient. The vital sign data include ECG, respiration, temperature, $SPO_2$, invasive blood pressure and non-invasive blood pressure.

Fiber-guided sensor system using a generator and a receiver can detect the amplitude of load or pressure. However, this type of sensor can show some difficulties in detecting the location of damages and pressure loadings. To overcome this weakness of this type, the ultrasonic active fiber sensor, which has an integrated ultrasonic generator and sensing part, was developed in this study. By using this sensor system, the location of mechanical loads can be exactly detected. Moreover, the ultrasonic active fiber sensor is more cost-effective than an ultrasonic fiber sensor using two piezoelectric transducers which are used as a generator and a receiver, respectively. Two applications of the ultrasonic active fiber sensor are demonstrated: cure monitoring of lead and measurement of liquid level. Present results showed that the active fiber sensor can be applied for various environmental sensing.

Rainfall-induced landslides in a weathered granite soil slope have mostly relative shallow slip surfaces above the groundwater table The pore-water pressure of soil above the groundwater table is usually negative. This negative pore-water pressure(or matric suction) has been found to make a large contribution to the slope stability. Therefore, the variation of in-situ matric suction profiles with time in a soil slope should be understood. In this study, a field measurement program was carried out from June to August, 2001 to monitor in-situ matric suctions and volumetric water contents in a weathered granite soil slope. The influence of climatic conditions on the variation of in-situ matric suctions could be found to decrease rapidly with depth. It could be found that decrement of matric suction induced by precipitation is affected not only by the amount and duration of rainfalls but also by the initial matric suction just prior to rainstorms. The soil-water characteristic from the field monitoring tends toward the wetting path of SWCC obtained from the laboratory test.

Only about 10% of selected equipment in nuclear power plants are monitored by wiring to address failures or problems caused by vibration. The purpose is primarily for preventive maintenance, not for predictive maintenance. This paper shows that vibration monitoring and diagnosis using Industrial 4.0 enables the complete predictive maintenance for all vibrating equipments in nuclear power plants with the convergence of internet of things; wireless technology, big data through periodic collection and artificial intelligence. Predictive maintenance using wireless technology is possible in all areas of nuclear power plants and in all systems, but it should satisfy regulatory guides on electromagnetic interference and cyber security.

In this study, a portable total-phosphorus (TP) monitoring system utilizing a photocatalytic-reaction-based pretreatment method is proposed, fabricated, and characterized. Commercial TP monitoring systems are only used in laboratories because of their complex monitoring procedure, bulk-size, and high-cost. In particular, pretreatment in commercial TP monitoring systems is performed at high temperatures (> 120 ℃) and pressure (> 1.1 kg cm^-2) making it difficult to minimize the scale of the systems. The proposed TP monitoring system employs a pretreatment method with a photocatalytic reaction; thus, its size can be reduced, as photocatalytic reactions occur at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. Analytes with various TP concentrations are pretreated using the proposed portable TP monitoring system and are quantitatively measured with an LED and a photodiode.
