The studyies on physico-chemical factors and phytoplankton at the 3 rivers in the Taejon city were conducted from November 1997 to May 1998. The Results were as floows; In the water quality, the down streams were generally worse than the upper streams. Water temperature was varied from 2.4$^{\circ}C$ to 23.$0^{\circ}C$; DO from 1.80mg/$\ell$ to 17.6mg/$\ell$ ; pH from 4.7 to 10.4 ; BOD from 0.78mg/$\ell$ to 8.80mg/$\ell$ ; COD from 0.32mg/$\ell$ to 8.26mg/$\ell$ ; SS from 2.0mg/$\ell$ to 43.0mg/$\ell$ ; total phosphate was from 0.001mg/$\ell$ to 0.709mg/$\ell$ ; total nitrogen 0.01mg/$\ell$ to 11.69mg/$\ell$. In phytoplankton species, they were identified as total 191 taxa composed of 8 classes, 18 orders, 35 families, 74 genera, 152 species, 35 varieties and 4 forms. The dominant species were Synedra ulna in Taejon-chon, Diatomavulgare in Yudong-chon, Oscillatioria princeps, Scenedesmus qadricauda, Synedra ulna, and Diatom vulgare in Gap-chon. Standing crops of phytoplankton were from 2,076 cells/$m\ell$ to 97,356 cells/$m\ell$

This study was carried out to provide basic data for water environmental control and conservation, and to elucidate monthly water environmental factor, phytoplankton flora and dominant species that each stations was maked a selection of a sites by represent 3 branch-river in the Taejon area from Nov. 1997 to Dec. 1998. Range of water temperature was $2.4^{\circ}C{\sim}30.9^{\circ}C$(means of $16.02^{\circ}C{\sim}18.92^{\circ}C$), pH was 7.1~10.4(means of 7.40~8.68). BOD was generally under $5mg/{\ell}$ except Gap-chon kyo in Nov. and COD was measured highly by interfer of men at the each sites. Especially, occasion of Gap-chon kyo, data was estimated about 3~13 times higher than another sites. DO was showed 1.03~10.43ppm, SS was showed $1.0{\sim}120.0mg/{\ell}$ TN was that, upper stream was 0.63ppm, middle was 0.35ppm and then lower was 0.44ppm, upper stream was higher than lower. TP was at upper stream 0.03ppm, middle 0.05ppm, lower 0.06ppm, lower stream was higher than another. The phytoplankton flora was identified as total 230 taxa composed of 7 classes, 18 oders 35 families, 75 genara, 184 species, 42 virieties, 4 forms. There are composed of that, Chlorophyceae 94 taxa(40.9%), Bacillariophyceae 66 taxa(28.8%), Euglenophyceae 39 taxa(17.0%), Cyanophyceae 24 taxa(10.4%), Chrysophyceae 4 taxa(1.7%), Rhodophyceae 2 taxa(0.8%) Xanthophyceae 1 taxa(0.4%), composition of Spesies of each sites was Gapchon-kyo 119, Wonchon-kyo 94, Gasuwon-kyo and Mannyon-kyo 87, Ochung-kyo 78, Hyunam-kyo and Suchim-kyo 77, Moonchang-kyo 70 taxa and Sansung-kyo 58 taxa. Number of species was showed tendency of increase lower stream. Taejon-chon and youdung-chon and at the sites of confluence were presented Synedra ulna and Diatom vugare like bacillariophyceae, Gap-chon was dominated variously Oscillatoria princeps and chlorophyceae, confluence of 3 branch-river was presented Euglenophyceae.

The purpose of this study was to investigate factors and variables which have significant effects on visual preference of urban stream in Taejon city and to suggest design & management information for urban stream. These works consist of two phases. First, we tested the Hyechon college students' visual preference for 36 spots of urban stream slide and then selected 10 spots slide by the Sturges' formula. Second, we analyzed factors and variables of visual preference of urban stream using the semantic differential scale method and then processed using descriptive analysis, factor analysis and multiple linear regression analysis. The major findings of this study can be summarized as follows. 1. The difference of landscape adjectives between the highest score of visual preference slide (No.10) and the lowest score of visual preference slide (No.2) was cleanness. 2. Three factors, the nature, the cleanness and the movement, were derived from the factor analysis. 3. Factors covering the visual preference of urban stream have been found to be the landscape of urban stream, the nature, the cleanness, and the movement. The visual preference factors of urban stream need to be considered in creating or restoring the ecological urban stream landscape.

Thirty two cases of patient with Thoracolumbar Compression Fracture were treated and observed clinically from November, 1997, to August, 1998, in the Dept. of Acupuncture and Moxibustion, Chon-an Oriental Medical Hospital, Taejon University. The results were obtained as follows; 1. The distribution of sex was male 6 cases(18.7%), female 26 cases(81.3%) and the distribution of age was seventies 17 cases(53.2%) the most. 2. The distribution of the causes was Slip-down 17 cases(53.2%) the most. 3. The distribution of the period before admission was within a week 19 cases(59.4%) the most. 4. The distribution of treatment duration in descending order: Under a week and two weeks under four weeks was the most number in 11 cases(59.4%) each. 5. The distribution of the injured level was L1 body 15 cases(18.3%) the most. 6. In the distribution of grading clinical severity on admission, the most cases were Gr.IV(18cases, 56.3%). 7. In the distribution of clinical symptoms on admission, 30 patients(21.9%) complained lower back pain and disturbance in turning over. 8. In the distribution of treatment result, the most cases(18 cases, 56.3%) was good. 9. The distribution of treatment duration according to the clinical grade on admission was as follows: Two weeks under four weeks was the most number in 8 cases(25%) in the group of Gr.IV, under two weeks was the most number in 6 cases(18.7%) in the group of Gr.III, and under four weeks was the most number in 2 cases(6.2%) in the group of Gr.II. 10. The distribution of treatment result according to the clinical grade on admission was as follows: Good was the most number in 10 cases(31.2%) in the group of Gr.IV, 6 cases(10.7%) in the group of Gr.III and 2 cases(6.2%) in the group of Gr.II. 11. The distribution of treatment result according to the treatment duration was as follows: Good was the most number in 4 cases(12.5%) under two weeks, 6cases(18.7%) two weeks under four weeks, and 6 cases(18.7%) four weeks under six weeks.

This study was performed to survey the specific information about the time of onset, frequency, duration, and severity of the side effect of radiation therapy following breast cancer surgery, and identify the difference of these data according to the type of breast cancer surgery : modified radical mastectomy(MRM) vs. breast consevative operation(BCO). 38 breast cancer patients were interviewed with side effect profile about radiation therapy. Interview was done weekley from the start of radiation therapy through 6 weeks and 3 month follow-up interview was done at 3 month after completion of the treatment. The results are as follow : 1. Total score of side effect experienced by the breast cancer patients was rapidly increased at 2-3 week after intiating treatement and continousely raised maintaing high score until completion of the treatement. Some problems like cough, dyspnea and pain were more experienced after treatment. 2. Patients with modified radical mastectomy showed more total score of side effects than patients with breast conservative operation. And both patients with MRM and BCO experienced similar pattern of side effect to radiation therapy. Through these data we concluded that side effect to radiation therapy was not ended at completion of treatement. Patents will continously experiend various problems and suffer from not only acute side effects like skin problem, sore throat and swollowing difficulty but also late effect of the radiation therapy. Clinically these data can be used for oncologic nurse to provide informational interventions to prepare breast cancer patients for the radiation therapy.
