  • Environment friendly agricultural material products (EFAMs) in current market were evaluated for their insecticidal or acaricidal activities. EFAMs were evaluated against Tetranychus urticae, Plutella xylostella, Myzus persicae and Nilaparvata lugens in spray method. Several EFAMs indicated high control value in spray method. Hatchability of T. urticae was relatively high after EFAM treatment. some materials show high insecticidal activities against P. xylostella larvae but not against eggs. Few mete rials showed more than 80% insecticidal activities against M. persicae and N. lugen. The control value of more than half the materials for pest control was lower than 60%. EFAMs containing S. flavescens, neem oil and Rape showed higher control value.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the cost using different methods of costing nursing activities for patients with chronic otitis media having surgery. Method: Data were collected from 30 patients who had mastoidectomy and tympanoplasty. To compare the cost, the researchers used three different costing methods; consumed time, resource based relative value scale (RBRVS), and critical pathway (CP). Results: Twenty-six nursing activities for surgical patients with chronic otitis media were found. Total cost was 83,843.7 won using RBRVS. The costliest activity was recording at 9,734.4 won, followed by confirmation of doctors' orders at 9,302.4 won, and injection with infusion pump at 9,072.0 won. There was a difference in nursing activities performed according to the length of hospital stay, and the cost was highest on the surgery day at 13,417.8 won. Comparatively, the total cost was 72,014.4 won using CP. Conclusions: Nursing activities are performed in various forms according to the disease and patient's condition, and different nursing activities are executed according to the length of hospital stay. In order to measure the load of nursing activities and distribute it appropriately, it is necessary to analyze the cost of nursing activities by the process of nursing services performed.

  • The ability of fibroblasts attached to teeth is paramount important in reestablishing the lost connective tissue attachment after periodontal therapy. The migration and proliferation of periodontal ligament cells are desired goal of periodontal regeneration therapy. PDGF is well known to regulate the cell activity of mesenchymal origin cell. Tobacco contains a complex mixture of substance including nicotine, various nitrosamines, trace elements, and variety of poorly characterized substances. Human gingival fibroblasts and periodontal ligament cells were cultured from extracted tooth for non-periodontal reason. Cultured human gingival fibroblasts and periodontal ligament cells in vitro were treated with PDGF, nicotine in time dependent manner. Cellular activities were determined by MTT assay. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of Nicotine and PDGF, respectively and the effect of PDGF presence of nicotine on human gingival fibroblasts and periodontal ligament cells. The results were as follows : 1. In the cell activities of human gingival fibroblasts and periodontal ligament cells were similar or decreased to control value at 1st day. At 2nd day, cellular activities of both group were increased to control value. At 3rd day, cellular activities of both group were returned to the control value. 2. In the cell activities of PDGF on human gingival fibroblasts and periodontal ligament cells, cell activities significantly increase from control group on periodontal ligament cells compared to gingival fibroblast group at 3rd day. 3. In the cell activities of PDGF and nicotine combined application on human gingival fibroblasts and periodontal ligament cells, it seems likely that the nicotinic effect of gingival fibroblasts were higher than periodontal ligament cells and the PDGF effect of periodontal ligament cells were higher than gingival fibroblasts. This results suggested that PDGF might stimulate the selective growth on periodontal ligament cells.

  • Purpose - The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of macroeconomic conditions on the relationship between CSR and firm value. Design/methodology/approach - Employing KEJI index as a proxy for a firm's CSR activities, we investigate whether investors discount the value of CSR activity during the economic recession when a firm's bankruptcy risk is high and thus its future sustainability is suspected. Findings - Our empirical result represents that the value of a firm with high CSR score is undervalued during recession, reflecting investors doubt the sustainability of a firm whose CSR score is high when overall economy is exposed to high downside risk. Research implications or Originality - It implies that investors may not regard the CSR activities as an indicator of corporate sustainability. Also, the result represents that stable macroeconomic condition can be one of the important factors to make the CSR activity increase a firm's value.
