혈관 질환을 검사하기 위한 방법으로 방사선 장비를 이용한 검사들이 주를 이루기 때문에 본 연구를 통해 뇌혈관 질환 검사에 있어 혈관 질환 검사에 사용되는 뇌혈관 조영술과 뇌혈관 전산화단층촬영검사의 입사표면선량(ESD; Entrance Surface Dose)을 비교 분석하여 뇌혈관 질환 검사 시 사용된 선량 결과에 따른 최적의 검사 방법 선택 유도 및 선량 저감화 방안에 대해 알아보고자 하였으며, 조영제 사용량을 측정 및 평가하여 조영제로 인한 부작용 발생 우려 시 권장 할 수 있는 검사선택 방법에 대해 알아보고자 연구를 진행하게 되었다. 대상으로는 2018년 6월부터 2018년 12월까지 여수지역 병원에서 뇌혈관 전산화 단층 촬영 검사를 시행한 70명 (남43, 여27)과 2018년 6월부터 2018년 11월까지 평택지역 병원에서 뇌혈관 조영술을 시행한 61 (남34, 여27)명을 대상으로 하였고, 분석 방법으로는 입사표면선량 데이터 값을 M-view와 PACS PLUS를 통해 후향적으로 획득하였으며 조영제 측정은 실제 사용된 량을 측정하는 방법으로 진행하였다. SPSS를 이용한 T-검정 분석결과 뇌혈관 조영술의 선량이 $245.74{\pm}71.91mGy$로 전산화 단층 촬영검사의 선량 $277.79{\pm}79.65mGy$보다 $32.05{\pm}7.74mGy$만큼 낮았으며 t=3.249, p=0.017로 통계적으로 유의했고(p<0.05) 조영제 총 사용량 비교 분석 결과에선 뇌혈관 조영술 시 사용된 평균 조영제 사용량이 $55.05{\pm}17.68ml$로 전산화 단층 촬영 검사에서 사용된 70 ml의 조영제 양보다 약 14.95 ml만큼 적었으며 t=-4.548, p<0.001로 통계적으로 유의했다. 결론적으로 뇌혈관 조영술의 선량이 전산화 단층 촬영검사보다 통계적으로 유의하게 낮았고, 조영제 사용량 또한 전산화 단층 촬영검사보다 유의할 만큼 적었으므로 뇌혈관 질환 검사에 있어 뇌혈관 조영술의 활용을 늘리는 방안이 피폭선량 저감화를 위한 방법임과 동시에 조영제 사용량을 감소시킬 수 있는 방안이라 생각된다.

본 연구는 최근 들어 웹툰에서 확장 컨텐츠로서의 역할을 하고 있는 트레일러(i.e., 예고편)나 웹툰 OST(i.e., Original Sound Track)등의 트랜스 미디어의 효과와 역할에 대하여 살펴보았다. 최근 몇 년 사이 웹툰을 활용한 트랜스 미디어가 급격히 늘어나며 다양한 방향으로의 생산과 소비가 이루어지고 있다. 그런데 이러한 컨텐츠들이 과연 웹툰에 대한 긍정적인 정서와 태도로 연결되는 지에 대한 연구들은 적극적으로 이루어지지 않는 실정이다. 이에 본 논문은 해당 효과를 충성도와 지각된 즐거움을 통하여 살펴보았으며, 그 기저에 '트랜스 미디어를 통한 컨텐츠에 대한 몰입도 상승'이 주요 변수로서 역할을 하는 것을 밝혀내었다. 더하여 이러한 메커니즘이 성별에 따라 달리 나타나는 지를 규명하는데, 여성의 경우 남성에 비하여 미디어 소비를 감정적 정보(emotional signal)를 기반으로 하는 경향이 있기 때문에 트랜스 미디어가 몰입의 수준을 더욱 상승 시킬 것이라 보았는데, 웹툰 이라는 컨텐츠에서는 미디어 소비에 대한 성별의 상이한 효과가 나타나지 않았다. 이는 일반적으로 성별에 따른 미디어 소비 방식이 웹툰에서는 달리 나타남을 알 수 있는 의미있는 결과이다. 이에 본 연구는 해당 결과를 기반으로 웹툰을 활용한 다양한 트랜스 미디어 제작 기획 시 유념해야 할 방향성과 시사점을 제시하였다.

To determine the regulatory roles of phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors on $PGE_2$-induced osteoclastogenesis, we investigated the effect of PDE inhibitors on osteoclast formation in the presence of $PGE_2$. Among PDE isozyme specific inhibitors, milrinone, a selective PDE3 inhibitor, and rolipram, a specific PDE4 inhibitor, increased $PGE_2$-induced osteoclast formation in cocultures of mouse bone marrow cells and osteoblasts. To verify that whether the PDE3 and PDE4 inhibitors act indirectly on osteoblasts, we measured the concentration of intracellular cAMP in osteoblasts. Treatment of milrinone or rolipram increased $PGE_2$-stimulated cAMP levels in osteoblasts. Furthermore, northern blot analysis revealed that the PDE3 and PDE4 inhibitors works synergistically with $PGE_2$ to increase the expression of TRANCE mRNA in osteoblasts. On the contrary, the PDE3 and PDE4 inhibitors did not augment the number of osteoclasts differentiated from bone marrow cells by $PGE_2$. In conclusion, the stimulation of $PGE_2$-induced osteoclast formation by the PDE3 and PDE4 inhibitors are attributable to their indirect effect on osteoblasts, not to their direct effect on bone marrow-derived osteoclast precursors.

Objectives : The symptoms of Sleepwalking disorder include getting up, walking, talking, and even eating in one's sleep or sleep-like state. The patients do not realize what they have done. It is accepted that there is no specific treatment for this disorder. Some medications and psychotherapies including hypnotherapy have been used in various situations. In this study, the hypnotherapy was used on a 46-year-old female patient. Method : She had been suffering from insomnia, nightmares, and sleepwalking for over a year. Through hypnotherapy, she was able to express her anger towards people who had hurt her in the past. Also, through regression and trance logic, she was able to reconcile with her mother who had passed away. Result and Conclusion : As a result, her sleepwalking disappeared and other psychological problems such as depression and anxiety were reduced effectively.

Since the late of 20th Century, philosophy, art, and aesthetics have attention to the movement of object that persue the dynamics and qualitative change, not existing fixed and quantitative object. Qualitative continuity, including discontinuity of specific spot and surface that occurs sudden change, is distinct characteristics considered in contemporary logo civilization, which combines and disperses according as various purpose among the different elements and objects. Therefore, I studied about the characteristics of qualitative continuity that creates the change and the differentiation continuously through the "formative characteristics of the continuity expressed in contemporary fashion" of my preceding paper. This paper is the following study of above mentioned paper, and Investigates about aesthetic consciousness leading to the various change. This is intends to consider the trans-aesthetic consciousness that accepts dynamic movement and change the different object and reforms new relationship continuously. This studies' conclusion is as follows; 1) sublimity-Infinity, de-constructive, excessive 2) jouissance - functional, structural 3) paradox-perceptual, spatial. A study about the trans-aesthetic consciousness would help to offer philosophical basis, and make a change building aesthetic foundation in explaining various relationship like as phenomenon of the retro, neo, post, fusion expressed since the late of 20th Century.

Toll-like receptors (TLRs), which recognize structurally conserved components among pathogens, are mainly expressed by antigen-presenting cells such as dendritic cells (DCs), B cells, and macrophages. Recognition through TLRs triggers innate immune responses and influences antigen-specific adaptive immune responses. Although studies on the expression and functions of TLRs in antigen-presenting cells have been extensively reported, studies in lymphoid tissue inducer (LTi) cells have been limited. In this study, we observed that LTi cells expressed TLR2 and TLR4 mRNA as well as TLR2 protein and upregulated OX40L, CD30L, and TRANCE expression after stimulation with the TLR2 ligand zymosan or TLR4 ligand LPS. The expression of tumor necrosis factor superfamily (TNFSF) members was significantly upregulated when cells were cocultured with DCs, suggesting that upregulated TNFSF expression may contribute to antigen-specific adaptive immune responses.

This study was carried out to clarify the cause of incompatibility in interspecific hybrid plant between Panax ginseng and p. quinquefolium. The floral structure of F,(p.g. x p.q.) hybrid was normal because the redundant anther was 0.2 mm longer than pistil in Fl hybrid and the size and structure of redundant carpel in F, hybrid were similar to P. ginseng and p. quiquefolium Pollens of $F_1$ hybrid did not germinate on stigma of P-quinquefolium but germinated well on stigma of P. ginseng. Pollen tube was able to penetrate styles completely and seed harvest rate was 16.8% in field. However on stigma of $F_1$ hybrid, Pollen did not germinate when P. ginseng was used as male Parent. In addition, the growth of pollen tube was halted on style and seed was not set when P qlfinquefoEi2a was used as male Parent. These suggest that the inhibitor of pollen germination present on stigma caused $F_1$ hybrid sterility. It took 5 hours for pollen grains to germinate, 12 hours to arrive at in trance of ovule, 16 hours to penetrate micropyles in Panax ginseng.

Bone homeostasis is maintained by a balance between activities of osteoblasts(bone forming cells) and osteoclasts (bone resorbing cells). The activities of these cells are closely regulated by multiple factors including hormones and cytokines. The cessation of estrogen at menopause disrupts the balanced regulation and is the main cause of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. Recent molecular biological studies led to a discovery of tumor necrosis factor(TNF) and TNF receptor families genes that play critical roles in the regulation of osteoclast formation and function. RANKL (receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand; also called ODF, TRANCE, and OPGL) expressed on cells supporting osteoclast is essential for osteoclast differentiation, activation, and survival. RANK, the counter-receptor for RANKL, is expressed on progenitor and mature osteoclasts. The interaction between RANKL and RANK is requlated by a soluble decoy receptor OPG (osteoprotegerin). Gene knock out studies of these molecules showed profound effects on bone. These results prompted development of new strategies for treatment of bone diseases. Inhibition of osteoclast activity by blocking the RANKL-RANK interaction using OPG is being attempted. Research on the signaling pathways of RANK is also actively carried out. Screening natural products that inhibit the RANKL-RANK interaction or the activity of obteoclasts would be another effective means to a new drug target for bone resorbing diseases.

OB associations are young stellar systems on a few tens to a hundred parsec scale, and many of them are composed of multiple substructures. It is suggested that some hints about their formation process are probably imprinted on structural features and internal kinematics. In this context, we study the massive star forming region W4 in the Cassiopeia OB6 association using the Gaia proper motion data and high-resolution optical spectra taken from Hectochelle on MMT. We probe the structure and internal kinematics of W4 to trance its formation process. Several nonmembers with different kinematic properties are excluded in our sample. Some of them may be young stellar population spread over a large area of the Perseus spiral arm given their wide spatial distribution over 50 parsecs. W4 is composed of an central open cluster (IC 1805) and an extended stellar component. Their global expansion patterns are detected in stellar proper motion. In this presentation, we will further discuss the formation process of W4, based on the velocity dispersions of stars comprising these substructure.

In 7 kinds of Gulbi purchansed from Yosu, Sunchon and Chinju, N-nitrosamine (NA) such as N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA), N-nitrosodiethylamine (NDEA) and N-nitrosodipropylamine(NDPA), were detected and their content was 2.8∼78.3$\mu\textrm{g}$/kg, trace and 0∼1.4$\mu\textrm{g}$/kg, respectively. This experiment was conducted to study the effect of processing conditions on NA formation in the salted and dried yellow corvenia(Guibi), prepared by using the different salting method like dry and brine salting by pure and crude salt. NDMA, NDEA and NDPA were not detected in raw sample, but NDMA content increased in yellow corvenia during its salting (27.6∼37.4$\mu\textrm{g}$/kg), and then drastically decreased in Gulbi stored for 40 days, ranging from 2.8 to 4.3$\mu\textrm{g}$/kg. Content of above NA was inhibited more effectively in the samples prepare with brine salting method than with the dry salting method during its processing and storage. Especially, NA in the sample prepared with brine salted and dried yellow corvenia using the pure salt was detected in the lower concentrations, and that of NDMA, NDEA and NDPA was 2.8∼27.6, trance and ND-2.7$\mu\textrm{g}$/kg, respectively.
