  • General anesthesia may influence the postoperative sleep cycle; however, no clinical studies have fully evaluated whether anesthesia causes sleep disturbances during the postoperative period. In this scoping review, we explored the changes in postoperative sleep cycles during surgical procedures or dental treatment under general anesthesia. We compared and evaluated the influence of general anesthesia on sleep cycles and sleep disturbances during the postoperative period in adult and pediatric patients undergoing surgery and/or dental treatment. Literature was retrieved by searching eight public databases. Randomized clinical trials, observational studies, observational case-control studies, and cohort studies were included. Primary outcomes included the incidence of sleep, circadian cycle alterations, and/or sleep disturbances. The search strategy yielded six studies after duplicates were removed. Finally, six clinical trials with 1,044 patients were included. In conclusion, general anesthesia may cause sleep disturbances based on alterations in sleep or the circadian cycle in the postoperative period in patients scheduled for elective surgery.

  • The reinforced concrete shear walls are being widely used in the domestic high-rise residential complex buildings. If designed by current codes, the special boundary element is needed in almost all high-rise shear wall buildings. This is because the equation for determining the provision of the special boundary element in the current codes cannot reflect the characteristics of the domestic high-rise shear walls with high axial load ratio and high proportion of elastic displacement to total displacement. In this study, a new equation to be able to reflect the characteristics is proposed. By using the equation, the special boundary element may not be necessary in certain cases so that structural engineers can relieve the burden of installing the special boundary element in every high-rise shear wall.

  • In the present paper, we obtain two Theorems connecting the unified fractional integral operators and the Laplace transform. Due to the presence of a general class of polynomials, the multivariable H-function and general functions ${\theta}$ and ${\phi}$ in the kernels of our operators, a large number of (new and known) interesting results involving simpler polynomials (which are special cases of a general class of polynomials) and special functions involving one or more variables (which are particular cases of the multivariable H-function) obtained by several authors and hitherto lying scattered in the literature follow as special cases of our findings. Thus the Theorems obtained by Srivastava et al. [9] follow as simple special cases of our findings.

  • This study is designed to analyze the production, employment, value added and income impacts tha, in the event of designation and development of Haeundae as 'Convention, Movie, Marine Leisure Special Zone', its marine sector would have on the local economy. The realization of marine leisure special zone of Haeundae in Busan is expected to lead to a direct and indirect investment of approx. \13.6 billion, resulting in \68.0 billion in production impact, 850 jobs in employment impact, \28.0 billion in value added impact and \14.5 billion in income impact. This is expected to give a boost to a stagnant local economy, offering opportunities for the revival of Busan's tourist industry.

  • The aim of the present work is to obtain the inverse Laplace transform of the product of the factors of the type $s^{-\rho}\prod\limit_{i=1}^{\tau}(s^{li}+{\alpha}_i)^{-{\sigma}i}$, a general class of polynomials an the multivariable H-function. The polynomials and the functions involved in our main formula as well as their arguments are quite general in nature. On account of the general nature of our main findings, the inverse Laplace transform of the product of a large variety of polynomials and numerous simple special functions involving one or more variables can be obtained as simple special cases of our main result. We give here exact references to the results of seven research papers that follow as simple special cases of our main result.

  • Special nutritional foods are one category of processed foods. In this category, 5 different food standards are defined in the current rule of the Korean Food Code ; that is, infant formulae, complementary foods for infants and young children, foods nutrient supplementation, processed dietary fiber-based foods, and foods for special dietary uses. The major differences between the special dietary uses. The major difference between the special nutritional foods and the other processed foods is that the special nutritional foods are characterized by their dietary uses for specific population groups rather than food ingredients or manufacturing and processing techniques which characterize and distinguish most of other processed foods. Although several countries establish similar standards for this type of foods, they use different legal names such as foods for special dietary uses(U.S.A., CODEX, Japan), foodstuffs intended for particular nutritional uses(EC), or special purpose foods(Australia). In addition, there are some other differences in the definitions for these food types and categorization of food types among countries. The major difference in the definitions is the description of 'special dietary uses' by specifying certain population groups whose nutrient requirements are different from those of ordinary men due to physiological or physical conditions and therefore may not be sufficiently met by consuming ordinary foods. The categorization of this type of foods is based on the type of dietary uses in the other countries, whereas we include foods simply supplemented with nutrients or foods having certain components such as dietary fibers even if these foods types do not have special dietary sues. Recently, a revision of standards for special nutritional food has been proposed. However, the description of 'special dietary uses' is not clearly indicated in the definition, and some food types which should not be categorized into the special nutritional foods still remain in this category. In order to correct these problems, the standard of food labeling in the Food Safety Law needs to be revised along with revision of food standards in the Food Code.

  • To evaluate the effect of low lactose special formula (MF-1) for the treatment of acute diarrhea, we studied thirty nine infants who were admitted with acute diarrhea to the Department of Pediatics, Yeungnam University Hospital. 39 infants of under 6 months of age who had been fed on formula feeds were randomly allocated to receive either a diluted regular formula milk or a low lactose special formula. Each infant received intravenous rehydration during fasting for 6-12 hours. Group 1 (n=15) was fed half strength of regular formula (80-100cc/kg/day) for the first 24 hours, three quarters strength formula (100-120cc/kg/day) for the next 24 hours, and continued feeding with the full strength regular formula milk. Group 2 (n=24), who fed the same amount of milk as Group 1, continued feeding with the full strength low lactose special formula from the start of feeding. Male to female sex ratio was 1.6 to 1. The characteristics of infants on admission were comparable in the age, the duration of diarrhea and the stool frequency before admission, the degree of dehydration. There were no significant differences in the duration of hospitalization, changes in stool weight and stool frequency after admission between two groups.(p>0.05) The Body weight and skin fold thickness were increased in group 2 who fed low lactose formula, but those who fed diluted regular formula showed reduction of body weight and skin fold thickness ($64.2{\pm}51.4g$ vs $-11.4{\pm}52.2g$, $0.6{\pm}0.8mm$ vs $-0.1{\pm}0.3mm$ respectively) during hospitalization. (p<0.05) We conclude that low lactose special formula milk can be recommended instead of diluted regular formula for acute diarrhea treatment in infants.

  • The present paper is devoted to studying the condition that a two-dimensional Finsler space with a special (${\alpha}$, ${\beta}$)-metric be a Landsberg space. It is proved that if a Finsler space with a special (${\alpha}$, ${\beta}$)-metric is a Landsberg space, then it is a Berwald space.
