Background: We investigated the resolution of pain and functional recovery of shoulder after arthroscopic removal of calcific deposits in patients with chronic calcific tendinitis. Methods: We enrolled 39 patients who were treated arthroscopically for chronic calcific tendinitis that had been non-responsive to at least 6 months of conservative treatment. We evaluated clinical outcome in terms of the American Shoulder Elbow Surgeons (ASES), the Constant score, the visual analogue score (VAS) for pain. We used plain radiography to measure the size of the calcific deposits. We also analyzed the clinical outcomes in terms of whether or not a cuff repair was performed or the degree of removal of calcific deposits. Results: We found that complete resolution of pain took on average 5.7 months after the arthroscopic treatment. The ASES and the Constant score significantly improved from the 3-month follow-up, however it took 6 months until the scores reached on average 80 points or above. We found that these clinical outcomes at the final follow-up did not significantly differ by whether or not cuff repair was performed. Similarly, we found that the clinical outcomes did not significantly differ by the degree of calcium removal. Conclusions: We found that arthroscopic removal of calcification leads to improved clinical outcomes in patients with chronic calcific tendinitis. However, our findings show it takes at least 6 months for the clinical improvement to become statistically significant. We also found that concomitant cuff repairs or the degree of removal of calcification does not affect the clinical outcome of the arthroscopic treatment.

The objectives of this study were to investigate the physical, chemical, and structural characteristics of the stream, especially Mugeo and Yeochon which are being changed to ecological stream by Ulsan city, and to acquire the considerations such as the planning element and plan criteria of the streams for making ecological stream system. Water quality, water quantity, vegetation, in stream structures and facilities, and land usage of the streams were investigated and the build up capabilities of ecological stream for the two streams were also analyzed. Planning elements for restoration to ecological stream included physical and biological purification methods in water quality, short term water acquire alternatives in water quantity, and vegetation recovery plan and improvement of habitation environment in ecological system, respectively. Planing elements in physical structures and facilities also included recovery of concrete levee and removal and recovery of covered channel.

Tracheostomy refers to a surgical incision created in the neck to allow direct air entry into the trachea bypassing the upper respiratory tract including the oral and nasal cavities. Normal vocalization and swallowing are limited immediately postoperatively; however, gradual recovery of vocalization and swallowing function can be initiated, following improvement in the causative condition that necessitated the tracheostomy. Duration of the tracheostomy depends upon the patient's condition, and the degree of vocalization and swallowing function recovery after tracheostomy tube removal varies widely across patients. In this review, we investigated the changes associated with vocalization and swallowing function in patients who underwent tracheostomy and have discussed the various approaches and voice rehabilitation treatments to aid with normal recovery.

양돈액비에서 인을 회수하기 위한 연속식 공정을 개발하고자 시험을 수행하였다. $MgCl_2$를 마그네슘 원으로 사용하였고 pH를 NaOH로 조정해준 구와 폭기를 시켜준 구를 서로 비교하였다. 몰비가 증가할수록 용해인의 회수율도 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 1. pH를 NaOH로 조정하였을 때 비육돈사 액비의 경우에 용해인은 몰비 1:1.5에서 초기값 353(${\pm}9$)mg/L에서 19(${\pm}1.6$)mg/L로 감소하여 95%의 회수효과를 보았으며, 암모니아성 질소의 경우에는 5,527(${\pm}174$)mg/L에서 5,009(${\pm}161$)mg/L로 감소하여 9%의 제거율을 나타내었다. 2. 자돈사 액비의 경우에 몰비 1:1.5에서 용해인은 초기치 111(${\pm}2.8$)mg/L에서 1(${\pm}1.1$)mg/L로 감소하여 회수율은 98%를 나타내었으며, 암모니아성 질소의 경우에는 2,317 (${\pm}37$)mg/L에서 2,226(${\pm}39$)mg/L으로 감소하여 제거율 4%를 나타내었다. 3. 자돈사 액비의 경우에 폭기공정의 몰비 1:1.5에서 용해인은 초기값 321(${\pm}10.2$)mg/L에서 113(${\pm}3.6$)mg/L로 감소하여 회수율은 66%로 되었으며, 암모니아성 질소의 경우에는 2,364(${\pm}5$)mg/L에서 2,017(${\pm}2$)mg/L로 낮아져서 제거율은 15%로 높게 나타났다. 4. pH를 NaOH로 조정해준 구가 폭기를 시켜준 구보다 용해인 회수에서 효과가 좋았다. 암모니아성 질소의 제거에서는 반대로 폭기구에서 높게 나타났다.

The membrane potential in the subepidermal cells of Lemna gibba G3 fronds was measured in the dark with glass capillary microelectrodes. At pH 7, the membrane potential, approximately-215 mV, could be depolarized to -82∼-88 mV by 0.1 mM dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD) or by KCN at 0.3 mM or higher concentrations. When the pH of the medium was altered the potential showed reversible changes, while it revealed no response to the external pH changes when energy transduction across the membrane was being blocked by 0.1 mM DCCD. The results support an assumption that the active component of the membrane potential of Lemna subepidermal cells is generated by electrogenic H+ -pump. By the addition of 0.10∼5.00 mM salicylic acid(SA) to the bathing medium the membrane potential was depolarized to a great extent, and the removal of SA from the medium repolarized the potential showing almost complete recovery, 92.3∼97.6% to the initial levels. Although the potential was greatly depolarized by 5.0% or higher concentrations of dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), the recovery rate by DMSO removal was decreased as the pretreatment concentration had increased. Twenty percent DMSO pretreatment limited the recovery at only 47.1%. The presence of SA in the bathing medium could reversibly increase the permeability of the plasmalemma. DMSO at its concentration of 5.0% or higher increased the permeability of the membrane by irrevesibly impairing the membrane component involved in the membrane permeability.

상수원수중 조류에 의해 발생하는 이취미물질인 2-MIB 및 Geosmin의 전처리방법에 따른 회수율 조사와 이들 물질의 효과적인 처리를 위한 회분식 실험에서의 제거효율을 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 전처리 방법에 따른 2-MIB 및 Geosmin의 회수율은 0.2 및 $2\;{\mu}g/L$ 농도에서 모두 시료채취량을 30 mL, 염석제인 NaCl를 9 g 주입하고, SPME syring주입 위치를 headspace로 하며, 흡착시간를 40분 이상으로 하였을 경우가 가장 높게 나타났으며, 최적전처리 조건에서의 회수율은 0.2 및 $2\;{\mu}g/L$ 농도에서 2-MIB의 경우 각각 약 85 및 95%, Geosmin의 경우 61 및 81%로 조사되었다. 회분식 실험에서의 2-MIB 및 Geosmin의 각 농도별 제거효율은 모든 흡착제에서 증류수를 사용하여 조제하였을 경우가 상수원수로 조제하였을 경우에 비해 높았고, 상수원수로 조제하였을 경우에는 농도에 따라서는 별 차이가 없었다. 흡착제의 종류에 따라 Freundrich 등온흡착식에 적응한 결과 흡착능력을 나타내는 K값은 제올라이트, 석탄계 활성탄 및 야자계 활성탄에서 2-MIB이 경우 각각 약 0.671, 1.811 및 1.340이었고, Geosmin의 경우 각각 약 0.613, 1.771 및 1.519로서, 2-MIB 및 Geosmin 모두 석탄계 활성탄 > 야자계 활성탄 > 제올라이트 순이었다.

The supernatant treatment of recovery process of raw materials of paper plant was studied using DAF (Dissolved Air Flotation) system. We investigated the removal efficiency (COD, SS and turbidity) of the DAF process. The effects of parameters such as A/S ratio, pressure, flotation conditions, coagulant concentration, mixing conditions, size and ratio of packing and nozzle type were examined. The results showed that the optimum A/S ratio and pressure were 0.058 and 4.5-5 atm, respectively. Injection times of pressurized water around 30 s and flotation times around 10 min appeared to be optimal for the DAF operation. Anion polymer addition improved the removal of COD, SS and turbidity. The smaller size and the more packing ratio were enhanced the removal efficiencies. The order of performance of nozzle was full cone > flat > assemble type.
