Pierre Robin syndrome is characterized by micrognathia, glossoptosis, and cleft palate. Infants with Pierre Robin syndrome causes feeding difficulty, upper airway obstruction, and other symptoms. This study aims to examine the effects of applying dysphagia treatment to infants with Pierre Robin syndrome. The study participant was an infant who was born four weeks premature and referred for dysphagia treatment approximately 100 days after birth. At the initial assessment, the infant showed oral sensory sensitivity, a high level of facial and masticatory muscle tension, and a low stability of the chin and cheeks with almost no normal "sucking-swallowing-breathing" pattern. We set the baseline period and intervention period using the AB design. During the baseline period, non-nutritive sucking training using a rubber nipple was conducted without implementing an oral stimulation intervention. During the intervention period, non-nutritive sucking training and an oral stimulation intervention were performed. After the intervention period, the infant's daily oral intake and oral intake per time significantly increased compared to that during the baseline period. We observed that the oral intake time of the infant decreased during the intervention period compared to that in the baseline period, which indicated an improvement in control over the chin, tongue, and lip movements, a change in muscular tension, and stabilization of the "sucking-swallowing-breathing" pattern. We provided dysphagia treatment before breastfeeding, it was positive effects such as normal development of the infant, transition from tube feeding to bottle feeding, and enhancement of overall oral motor function.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of science classes applying round robin strategy on scientific communicative competence, science learning motivation and academic achievement of elementary students. The number of participants were 126, 4 classes of 6th grade in C elementary school in B city. The experimental group, 2 classes including 63 participants, had science classes applying round robin strategy. While the comparative group, 2 classes including 63 participants, took ordinary teacher-driven lessons using teacher's guidebook. Pre and post tests were done before and after intervention to assess the changing in each group's scientific communicative competence, science learning motivation, and academic achievement. The results of this study can be summarized as follows: The science class applying round robin strategy showed significant effect on improving scientific communicative competence and science learning motivation and academic achievement of elementary students.

This paper provides simulational round robin test results for welding residual stress prediction of safety/relief nozzle. To quantify the welding variables and define the recommendation for prediction and determination of welding residual stress, 6 partners in 5 institutes participated in round robin test. It is concluded that compressive axial and hoop residual stress occurs in dissimilar metal weld and pre-existing residual stress distribution in dissimilar metal weld was affected by similar metal weld due to short length of safe end. Although the reason for the deviation among the results was not pursued further, the effect of several key elements of FE analyses on welding residual stress was investigated in this paper.

In this paper, results of simulational round robin test on residual stress prediction was provided. Welding residual stress is one of the reasons for primary water stress corrosion cracking in PWR. Therefore, quantifying the welding variables and defining the recommendation for prediction welding residual stress is important. Through the round robin test, it is known that compressive axial and hoop residual stress occurs in dissimilar metal weld and pre-existing residual stress distribution in dissimilar metal weld was affected by similar metal weld due to short length of safe end.

NPU in an embedded environment performs deep learning algorithms with few hardware resources. By using a technique that reuses data, deep learning algorithms can be efficiently computed with fewer resources. In previous studies, data is reused using a shifter in ScratchPad for data reuse. However, as the ScratchPad's bandwidth increases, the shifter also consumes a lot of resources. Therefore, we present a data reuse technique using the Buffer Round Robin method. By using the Buffer Round Robin method presented in this paper, the chip area could be reduced by about 4.7% compared to the conventional method.

This is a brief clinical report describing an 18-month-old female with Robin sequence found to have an incidental mandibular cystic lesion on a head computed tomography scan in the preoperative workup before performing mandibular distraction. She underwent enucleation of the tumor, which was found to be a dentigerous cyst. One year following cyst enucleation, mandibular distraction was performed in order to alleviate her tongue-based obstruction. This case demonstrates the ability of the mandibular bone to successfully regenerate after undergoing cyst enucleation.

We have constructed a robust numerical method on Shishkin mesh for a class of convection diffusion type turning point problems with Robin type boundary conditions. Supremum norm is used to derive error estimates which is of order O($N^{-1}$ ln N). Theoretical results are verified by providing numerical examples.

Flow aggregation is a scalable method to provide quality of service (QoS) guarantees to a large number of flows economically. A round-robin scheduler is an efficient scheduling algorithm. We investigate flow aggregation using a round-robin scheduler and propose the use of periodic timer interrupts for rate control of the round-robin scheduler. The proposed flow aggregator is a single-stage scheduler compared to Cobb's two-stage flow aggregator consisting of an aggregator and non-aggregating scheduler. It is possible to implement flow aggregation in the existing routers with only a software upgrade. We also present a simulation study showing the delay behaviors of the proposed algorithm.

When micrognathia (Small jaw) and glossoptosis (Falling backward of the tongue) occur in the newborn, there is a grave danger of upper airway obstruction. These deformities are frequently associated with an incomplete cleft of the palate, and the entity has been referred to as the Pierre Robin Syndrome. This is to report a case of Pierre Robin Syndrome of 40 day old Korean male infant, whose birth weight was about 3.6kg, and gestation period was 39 weeks. From birth, dyspnea and feeding difficulty were developed. The authors treated the patient by surgical procedure (glossopexy). The post operative course was uneventful.
