  • Background Laryngeal allotransplantation (LA) is a technique involving transplantation of a deceased donor's larynx into a recipient, and it may be substituted for conventional laryngeal reconstruction. There are widely different views on LA, as the recipient is administered continuous, potentially life-threatening, immunosuppressive therapy for a functional or aesthetic result, which is not directly related to life extension. The purpose of this study was to analyze the difference in risk acceptance and expectations of LA between four population groups. Methods A survey was performed to examine patients' risk acceptance and expectations of LA. The survey included 287 subjects in total (general public, n=100; kidney transplant recipients, n=53; post-laryngectomy patients, n=34; doctors, n=100), using a Korean translated version of the louisville instrument for transplantation (LIFT) questionnaire. Results All four groups responded differently at various levels of their perception in risk acceptance and expectations. The kidney transplant recipients reported the highest risk acceptance and expectations, and the doctor group the lowest. Conclusions This study examined the disparate perception between specific population groups of the risks and benefits of using LA for the promotion of the quality of life. By addressing the information gaps about LA in the different populations that have been highlighted from this survey, we suggest that LA can become a more viable alternative to classical surgery with resultant improved quality of life for patients.

  • Purpose: Facial allotransplantation (FA) could provide an excellent alternative to current treatments for facial disfigurement. However, despite being technically feasible, there continues to be various ethical and psychosocial issues associated with the risks and benefits of performing FA. The purpose of this study is to investigate risk acceptance and expectations in FA. Methods: In a quantitative assessment of risk versus benefit with respect to FA, from 2004 to 2008, Barker et al. developed and published a questionnaire-based instrument (Louisville Instrument for Transplantation [LIFT]), which contained 237 standardized questions. In the current study, the authors assessed risk versus benefits and expectations of FA using a Korean version of the LIFT. Respondents in three study groups (lay public, n=140; medical students, n=120; doctors, n=34) were questioned about risk acceptance as related to immunosuppression and tissue rejection, and expectations as related to quality of life improvement, and functional and aesthetic outcomes. A summary of the data has been provided and statistical analyses were performed. Results: Among the three study groups, results indicated that doctors accept the least amount of risk for a facial allotransplant, followed by medical students, and finally lay public. There was a significant statistical difference in three of the four questions regarding risk acceptance between the groups (p < 0.05). In general, lay public exhibited higher expectations for facial allotransplantation than the other groups. Additionally, there was a significant statistical difference in the importance of aesthetic outcome between the groups (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The authors' data indicate the three populations have vastly different levels of risk acceptance and expectations with regard to FA. Therefore, it is very important that surgeons establish clear, open, and thorough communication with patients in their consultations regarding FA. This is particularly important with respect to whether or not a patient's level of risk acceptance and expectations are progmatic.

  • 본 논문에서는 레이저 유도증착 공정을 사용하여 절연기판위에 미세패턴의 전도성 향상시켰다. 기존의 레이저 유도증착의 공정에서 발생하는 높은 레이저빔 에너지로 인하여, 미세패턴의 낮은 증착밀도, 산화와 같은 문제점이 있다. 이러한 문제점을 폴리머 코팅층을 사용하여 증착정밀도와 전도성 향상하였다. 실리콘 웨이퍼 위에 미세패턴 증착을 위해서 크롬, 구리를 사용하였다. 본 연구에서는 다중펄스 방식의 레이저 빔을 금속박막에 조사하여 절연기판(insulating substrate: $SiO_2$) 위에 시드 층을 형성하고, 형성된 시드 층위에 무전해 도금을 적용하여 미세패턴 및 구조물을 제작하는 복합공정기술을 개발하였다. 레이저빔의 다중 스캔방식으로 조사함으로서 레이저빔의 에너지가 증착 층의 증착밀도와 표면품위를 향상시키고, 미세전극 패턴으로 사용가능한 전기 전도성을 갖게 되었음 알 수 있었다. 레이저 직접묘화법과 무전해 도금을 적용한 복합공정을 이용하여 미세전극을 증착 한 후 비저항을 측정한 결과 도금 전 저항이 $6.4{\Omega}$, 도금 후의 저항이 $2.6{\Omega}$으로 미세전극 패턴의 표면조직이 균일하고 증착되었다. 표면조직이 균일하고 치밀하게 증착되었기 때문에 전기 전도도가 약 3배정도 향상되었다.

  • 교량 바닥판은 공용 기간 동안 차량하중 및 다양한 환경 조건 (동결융해, 우수 및 융빙제)에 직접적으로 노출되어 있는 부재이다. 이로 인해, 교량 바닥판은 다른 주요부재에 비해서 다양한 결함 및 손상이 자주 발생하여 고속도로 상의 문제 교량은 대부분 바닥판에 결함을 지니고 있다. 따라서 교량 바닥판의 내구성을 확보하기 위한 방안으로 고성능콘크리트 (high performance concrete, HPC)가 대안으로 제시되었다. 교량 바닥판의 내구성을 향상하기 위해, 배합된 고성능콘크리트에 대한 내구성능 실험이 수행되었다. 본 연구에 사용된 배합 변수는 총 4가지로, 1) 보통시멘트 (OPC) 2) 시멘트 중량의 20%의 플라이애쉬 치환(FA), 3) 20%의 플라이애쉬와 4%의 실리카퓸 치환 (FS), 그리고 4) 40%의 고로슬래그미분말 치환 (BS)에 대해서 내구성 실험을 실시한 후 비교 평가를 실시하였으며, 사용된 설계 압축강도는 각각 27 MPa와 35 MPa이다. 고성능콘크리트를 시험 배합한 결과, 결합재의 양을 증가시켜 강도를 증진시키는 것보다는 혼화재를 사용하는 것이 내구 성능이 크게 향상되는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 혼화재 중, 플라이애쉬와 실리카퓸을 함께 결합재로 사용하는 경우가 균열 저감 및 내구 성능 증진에 가장 효율적인 것으로 나타났다.

  • Embedding Therapy keep the stimulation to acupoint. Recently, Embedding Therapy is used for various disease and also studied in many different fields especially in China. In Korea, Embedding Therapy is studied and used for dermatology, face-lift, obesity, facial palsy most frequently. Chinese studies shows us Embedding Therapy could help musculoskeletal system disorder, lumbar herniated intervertebral disc, sprain, spinal canal stenosis. In Korea study concerning lumbar herniated intervertebral disc treatment used Embedding Therapy is few. This study's purpose is to ensure effect of Embedding Therapy at lumbar herniated intervertebral disc treatment. Four lumbar disc herniation patients had been treated with Embedding Therapy were described in this article. The patients(n=4) had been suffering from chronic lower back and leg pain that continued for more than 6 months. All patients had been diagnosed as lumbar disc herniation by MRI or CT, and treated with Embedding Therapy at least 2 times(7 days interval). 2 patients had been treated with concurrent treatment of acupuncture therapy, and the other 2 patients with concurrent treatment of acupuncture and herbal therapy. We observed 4 patients for more than 2 weeks, and their symptoms and quality of daily life had been improved. This suggests that lumbar disc herniation can be successfully recovered with Concurrent Embedding Therapy under conventional Korean Medical Treatment without side effects.

  • It is a remarkable phenomenon that tattoos has been rapidly spreading among women of modern years. The extremism of feminine ornaments, and pricking and piercing of the skin seem to have deep connection with women's consciousness changing to being independent, active and aggressive. The objective of this study is to analyze the potential quality of today's women, who appears emblematically through tattoo, and to search out the whole aspect and keynote of female tattoos. The methods of research are by examining the general characteristics including concept and history, considering the type and significance of ethnic female tattoos, and then comparing with the symbolism of today's female tattoos. The sphere is limited to women's tattoos from ancient times to today's modern lift, examined from large portions of Africa, Asia, Australasia, the Americas, and Arctic regions. As a result, the following had been reflected in female tattoos in the past. First, incantation, tribe, adult age, adornment, marital status, domestic ability and sex distinction, where among others, the incantatory, ornamental symbol, and domestic sign were representatives. Second, the most popular body parts for having a tattoo were around the lips, hands and abdominal region. Third, the more harsh the environment becomes such as tropical forests, isolated islands, and polar regions, the more number of females have tatoos. Fourth, women's tattoos were much less glamorous and smaller compared to those of men, distinguishing one's sex. On the other hand, today's female tattoos can be classified as five symbols: masculinity, independence, voluptuousness, affection, and purity. These symbols contain women's mentality to pass the limit, and to overcome social inferiority. In modern society, where women must compete with met it has become necessary for women to educe their potential masculine qualities. Being violent accessories for them, tattoos became a mark of such potential. Therefore, in the future, women's interest and demand for tattoos are expected to rise in proportion to the social demand of women's force.
