  • 본 연구에서는 하수슬러지의 연료화를 위하여 반탄화 생성물을 분석하였다. 혼합시료는 하수슬러지 함량을 50%로 고정하고, 왕겨와 커피박의 함량을 50%로 조절하여 제조하였다. 반탄화 실험에서 반응 시간(30min, 60min)과 온도($200^{\circ}C$, $250^{\circ}C$, $300^{\circ}C$)를 SF(Severity Factor)를 이용하여 단일변수로 나타내었다. 연구 결과 반탄화 조건인 SF가 증가할수록 발열량과 연료비가 증가하였으며, 연소성지수는 감소하는 것을 확인하였다. 혼합시료의 발열량은 커피박(CR)과 반탄화 조건(SF) 모두의 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났으며, 연료비 범위는 SF가 6.19보다 낮은 경우 갈탄의 연료비 범위(0.5~1.0)와 유사하나 SF가 7.36보다 큰 경우 저도역청탄의 연료비 범위(1.0~1.8)와 유사한 것을 확인하였다. 연소성지수는 커피박보다는 왕겨가 더 함유될수록 낮은 조건의 SF에서 안정 범위(3,000~5,500kcal/kg)의 값을 나타내는 것으로 확인되었다.

  • This study was performed to report the case of Korean medical treatment for the Patulous Eustachian tube patient with headache. The patient was treated by acupuncture, herbal medicine, bee venom injection, needle-embedding therapy, chuna therapy, release of cranial base and sacro-occipital therapy. Korean medical treatment was administered during 3 weeks. The improvement of clinical symptoms was evaluated by VAS (visual analogue scale) and SF-36 (36-Item Short Form Healthy Survey Instrument). After treatment, most symptoms decreased, headache VAS score changed 10 to 6 and tinnitus VAS score changed 10 to 5. Also, most SF-36 scores increased. Our study suggested that Korean medical treatments are effective in the patient with Patulous Eustachian tube. And further studies are required to identify underlying mechanism of treatment.

  • PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between the physical activities of individuals post-stroke and their HRQL, as well as to determine whether their functional abilities contribute to their amounts of physical activity. METHODS: The study's subjects included 90 individuals post-stroke. Their amounts of physical activity were measured using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), and their HRQL was measured using the Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-form Health Survey (SF-36). In addition, the functional abilities of the subjects were measured. For the measures of physical activities and the HRQL, Pearson's correlation coefficients were used to identify the strengths of the associations between the measures. A hierarchical linear regression model was used to determine whether physical activities had independent impacts on the HRQL. RESULTS: This study found that the physical activities performed by the subjects affected the SF-36 physical component score (PCS) (12%). However, the physical activities and the SF-36 mental component score (MCS) showed no statistically significant relationship, whereas functional abilities and physical activities had a statistically significant relationship (r = .57~.86, p<.001). CONCLUSION: The present study identified a correlation between physical activity and the PCS. Therefore, individuals post-stroke should be encouraged to carry out more physical activities, including more frequent walking activities.

  • Objectives: We designed this study to evaluate the effect of Korean medical treatment on complications of chemotherapy after curative resection in patient with ovarian carcinoma IV. Methods: The patient got total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (TAHBSO) on 9/4 and received chemotherapy on 10/7, 10/28, 11/18. During this period, the patient suffered from anorexia, dyspepsia, nausea, weight loss and insomnia. We treated the patient with herbal medicine and acupuncture. The efficacy of treatment was evaluated with visual analog scale (Vas), weight and 36-item short form health survey instrument (SF-36). Results: After treatment, although the scale values went ups and downs according to chemotherapy schedule, abdominal pain Vas changed 7 to 0, weight changed 46 kg to 51 kg. Also, SF-36 scores increased. Conclusions: This case report shows that the Korean medical treatment is useful in the treatment of complications of chemotherapy after curative resection in patient with ovarian carcinoma IV.

  • Background: Physical activity and quality of life (QOL) influence the health status of older adults. Recently, the use of wearable devices to monitor physical activity has increased. Objects: This study examined the relationship between the amount of physical activity, measured using a wearable device, and QOL among older adults. Methods: In total, 71 older adults (aged ≥ 65 years) were enrolled. The amount of physical activity was measured using a wearable device with a wrist strap, and daily physical activity was classified according to intensity (sedentary, light, moderate, or very active). Self-reported QOL was evaluated using the Short Form 36 (SF-36) questionnaire. Pearson and Spearman correlation analyses were conducted to analyze parametric and non-parametric variables, respectively. The relationship between amount of daily physical activity and SF-36 scores was assessed. Results: The correlation analyses revealed positive correlations between the amount of moderate-intensity and very active physical activity (minutes/day) and SF-36 scores (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Physical activity of at least moderate intensity is associated with better QOL in older adults. Further studies are required to verify the effects of increased physical activity on QOL in older adults.

  • Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effects of fall-prevention exercise programs on fall efficacy, depression and health-related quality of life in elderly. Design: a randomized controlled trial Methods: A total of 57 participants over 65-years-old have been allocated to control and experimental groups. The experimental group received 8 weeks of fall-prevention exercises that included strengthening of lower extremities, balance and gait training. They received the exercises twice a week for 50 minutes as a group.Both groups were assessed using Modified Falls Efficacy Scale (MFES), Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS), and 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) prior and post to the intervention. The control group also received the same exercise program after the post evaluation. Results: The experimental group showed overall improvement in MFES, GDS, and physical components of SF-36 (p<0.05). The MFES was significantly increased in the experimental group after the intervention (p<0.05). The GDS was significantly decreased in the experimental group after the intervention (p<0.05). The SF-36, only physical Function, Role limitations due to physical health, general health, and energy and fatigue categories were improved in the experimental group after the intervention (p<0.05). Conclusions: The results showed 8 weeks of fall-prevention exercise programs can increase fall efficacy and physical related quality of life while reducing depression of elderly over 65.

  • Objective: This is the result of a study on patients with osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the talus whose pain was improved by Gamchobuja-tang (GBT). Methods: The patient took GBT for 46 days. We observed the progress of symptoms, patient compliances and side effects. Quality of life related to pain was quantified through the SF-36 and AQoL-6D questionnaires. The degree of pain in the talus and ankle areas was quantified using VAS and observed through the symptoms and frequency complained of by the patient. Results: According to the DPIDS, the patient was diagnosed with the 175 provision in Taeyangbing chestbind (大陽病 結胸). As a result, SF-36 score increased from 36 points to 74 points, and the AQoL-6D score increased from 74 points to 104 points. The visual analogue scale (VAS) of ankle pain lowered from 9 to 2. The number of days with VAS levels 1 also increased. Conclusions: Gamchobuja-tang is effective in reducing pain in the talus area caused by osteochondritis dissecans..

  • The flashover voltages have been investigated for spacer and unbridged-gap in SF6-N2 gas mixtures up to the value of 760(torr. cm), The gap was stressed by DC source The results obtained are as follows` 1) The flashover voltages for an unbridged gap and for a spacer in SF6, N2 and SF6-N2 gas mixtures follow the Paschen's curve. 2) The polarity effects was not observed in both unbridged gap and a spacer which had per ect contact with an electrode. The flashover voltages for negative polatity are lower than those for positive polarity in case of imperfect contact. 3) 3%flashover voltage is decreased by putting a spacer which had perfect contact with an electrode. The spacer which has a gap void shows the lowest flashover voltage. 4) The lowest spacer efficiency was obtained with higher gas pressure & large amount of N2 content. The flashover voltages depend on the gas pressure rather than the spacer efficienty at low value of pd. 5) The flashover voltages of gas mixtures of N2 with SF6 are relatively high, even though the amount of SF6 gas content is small.
