The apparent digestibility coefficients of dry matter, crude protein and energy in white fishmeal, herring meal, anchovy meal, salmon meal, sardine meal, mackerel meal, squid meal, soybean meal, corn gluten meal and wheat flour were determined for olive flounder. Digestibility coefficients were determined using a reference diet and test diets that contained 70% of the reference diet mixture and 30% test ingredients. All diets contained 0.5% chromic oxide as a digestibility indicator. The fish averaging 220 g were held in 500 L tanks at a density of 20 fish per tank. Feces were collected from three replicated groups of fish using a fecal collection column attached to a fish-rearing tank. The apparent dry matter, crude protein and energy digestibility coefficient values observed were in the ranges 29-79%, 59-95% and 45-91%, respectively, for various test ingredients. The apparent dry matter, crude protein and energy digestibility of white fishmeal, herring meal, anchovy meal, salmon meal, sardine meal, mackerel meal and squid meal were significantly higher than those of soybean meal, corn gluten meal and wheat flour.

Objectives We aimed to identify the neuroimaging marker for prediction of the use of atypical antipsychotics (AAP) in dementia patients. Methods From April 2010 to March 2013, 31 patients who were diagnosed as dementia at the psychiatric department of Soonchunhyang University Hospital, completed the brain magnetic resonance imaging scan and cognitive test for dementia. Ten patients were treated with AAP for the improvement of behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) and the other 21patients were not. Using T1 weighted and Fluid Attenuated Inversion Recovery (FLAIR) images of brain, areas of white matter (WM), gray matter (GM), cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and white matter hyperintensities (WMH) have been segmented and measured. Multivariate logistic regression models were applied for assessment of association between AAP use and the GM/WM ratio, the WMH/whole brain (GM + WM + CSF) ratio. Results There was a significant association between AAP use and the GM/WM ratio (odds ratio, OR = 1.18, 95% confidence interval, CI 1.01-1.38, p = 0.037), while there was no association between AAP use and the WMH/whole brain ratio (OR = 0.82, 95% CI 0.27-2.48, p = 0.73). Conclusions The GM/WM ratio could be a biological marker for the prediction of AAP use and BPSD in patients with dementia. It was more likely to increase as dementia progress since atrophy of WM was more prominent than that of GM over aging.

The object of this experiment was to investigate the food habits of Korean native goats fed with various roughage sources. The experimental trials were conducted at Unbong Animal Genetic Resources Station in 2008. The experimental roughages include five sources and 25 species in all; grasses and legumes: 5 species (mixed grasses, orchardgrass, tall fescue, alfalfa, white clover), native grasses and weeds: 5 species (mixed native grasses, Miscanthus sinensis Anderss, Arundinella hirta (Thunb.) Tanaka, Barnyard grass, short awn, forage crops and straw: 5 species (barley + hairy vetch, wheat + hairy vetch, rye silage, barley silage, baled rice straw), browse and fallen leaves: 5 species (Mixed browse, Oriental white oak, Quercus serrta Thunb., Oriental cherry fallen leaves, Japanese chestnut fallen leaves), and imported hay and straw: 5 species(timothy hay, tall fescue straw, annual ryegrass straw, klinegrass hay, alfalfa hay). Ten Korean native goats were selected which had nearly the same body weight (average $24{\pm}2.8$ kg). The chemical composition and dry matter digestibility of each roughage source and species were significantly different at the sampling area, plant species, growth stages and cutting period (p<0.05). Among all the 25 species of roughages, the favorite intake species order by Korean native goat was observed like this: Quercus aliena, Querancas serrta Thunb and Mixed browse, which was a lower intake compared to other domestic herbivores. The Korean native goats ate more roughages which had low fibrous contents, but high dry matter digestibility. The Korean native goats ate more roughages which had low fibrous contents, but high dry matter digestibility. On the other hand, compared to each roughage source, total intake amount by Korean native goats was showed as browse and fallen leaves (33.1%) among trials roughage sources. Based on these results, the food habit of Korean native goats seems to be closer to the browser.

Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) is a demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS) that typically presents as a monophasic disorder associated with multifocal neurologic symptoms and encephalopathy. ADEM is considered an autoimmune disorder that is triggered by an environmental stimulus in genetically susceptible individuals. The diagnosis of ADEM is based on clinical and radiological features. Most children with ADEM initially present with fever, meningeal signs, and acute encephalopathy. The level of consciousness ranges from lethargy to frank coma. Deep and subcortical white-matter lesions and gray-matter lesions such as thalami and basal ganglia on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are associated with ADEM. In a child who presents with signs of encephalitis, bacterial and viral meningitis or encephalitis must be ruled out. Sequential MRI is required to confirm the diagnosis of ADEM, as relapses with the appearance of new lesions on MRI may suggest either multiphasic ADEM or multiple sclerosis (MS). Pediatric MS, defined as onset of MS before the age of 16, is being increasingly recognized. MS is characterized by recurrent episodes of demyelination in the CNS separated in space and time. The McDonald criteria for diagnosis of MS include evidence from MRI and allow the clinician to make a diagnosis of clinically definite MS on the basis of the interval preceding the development of new white matter lesions, even in the absence of new clinical findings. The most important alternative diagnosis to MS is ADEM. At the initial presentation, the 2 disorders cannot be distinguished with certainty. Therefore, prolonged follow-up is needed to establish a diagnosis.

We examine large-scale environmental effects on the formation and the mass growth of dark matter halos. To facilitate this, we constructed dark matter halo merger trees from a cosmological N-body simulation, which enabled us to trace the merger information and the assembly history of individual halos. In fact, since the massive halos are more likely to be distributed in denser regions than in less dense regions (Mo & White, 1996), the large-scale environment dependence of the properties of halos can be partly originated from the halo mass effect. In order to avoid such contamination, caused by the mass dependence of halo properties, we carefully measured the local overdensity as the indicator of large-scale environment, which was calculated to be as independent of halo mass as possible. Small halos (${\sim}10^{11-12}M_{\odot}$), which usually host isolated single galaxies, show a notable difference on the formation time of galaxies depending on their large-scale environments, which reconfirms halo assembly bias (Gao & White, 2007). Furthermore, we investigate how this environmental effect on small halos is correlated with the mass assembly history of galaxies by using our semi-analytic model. We found that assembly bias in small halos does not have significant effects on the formation time or on the star formation history of galaxies residing in those halos except for the individual stellar mass of galaxies at z = 0. On average, isolated galaxies in high-density regions tend to be slightly more massive than those in low-density regions. Although the observational data from the current galaxy surveys is not yet sufficient for testing this prediction, future galaxy surveys will be able to explore these small galaxies more thoroughly.

The price of the Brain phantom (Hoffman 3D brain phantom) used in nuclear medicine is quite expensive, it is difficult to be purchased by a medical institution or an educational institution. Therefore, the purpose of present research is to produce a low-price 3D brain phantom and evaluate its usefulness by using a 3D printer capable of producing 3D structures. The New 3D brain phantom consisted of 36 slices 0.7 mm thick and 58 slices 1.5 mm thick. A 0.7 mm thick slice was placed between 1. 5 mm thick slices to produce a composite slice. ROI was set at the gray matter and white matter scanned with CT to measure and compare the HU, in order to verify the similarity between PLA which was used as the material for the New 3D brain phantom and acrylic which was used as the material for Hoffman 3D brain phantom. As a result of measuring the volume of each Phantom, the error rate was 3.2% and there was no difference in the signal intensity in five areas. However, there was a significant difference in the average values of HU which was measured at the gray and white matter to verify the similarity between PLA and acrylic. By reproducing the previous Hoffman 3D brain phantom with a 100 times less cost, I hope this research could contribute to be used as the fundamental data in the areas of 3D printer, nuclear medicine and molecular imaging and to increasing the distribution rate of 3D brain phantom.

목초하고 피해를 최소화할 수 있는 방목개시시 초장(주구 3처리 ; 15, 30, 45cm)과 여름철 혼파된 화본 과목초에 경합력이 낮은 화이트클로바 품종(세구 4처리; Regal, Tahora, Brown, STVR)을 선발하기 위해 제주농업시험장의 사료작물시험포장에서 1994년 9월부터 1996년 10월까지 2년간 시험이 수행되었다. 혼파목초의 건물수량은 전체적으로 평균 예취시 초장 30cm 이상에서 유의적 증수를 보였으나(P<0.05) 2년차에는 유의적 차이가 없었다. 2년째 수확시에만 목초의 건물수량이 Brown 품종구에서 타 품종 보다 통계적으로 고도의 유의적 증가를 보였다.(P<0.01). 2년차에 예취시 초장에 따른 식생구성율에 분명한 차이를 발견치 못하였다. 다만 white clover 품종 처리별로 비교할 때 white clover의 비율은 Regal와 Tahora구에서 보다 Brown과 SRVR 처리구에서 낮아지는 경향이었다. 2년차 마지막 예취시에 잡초비율도 주구나 세구간 효과를 발견치 못하였다. 목초의 ADF와 NDF 함량은 예취 초장 15cm에서 가장 낮았고 인 함량은 15cm에서 가장 높았으며 모두 통계적으로 유의차가 인정되었다(P<0.05). 혼파목초의 K 함량은 30cm 초장에서 가장 낮았으며 (P<0.05) 질소 함량은 예취시 초장과 품종간에 상호작용이 있었으며 통계적으로 고도의 유의차가 있었다(P<0.01). White clover의 품종이 목초의 일반성분 함량에 영향을 주지 못하였다. 결론적으로 방목형일 때 15cm 초장에서 화이트 클로바 SRVR을 이용하는 것이 사료가치도 유지하며 두과와 화본과목초 균형을 유지하는 데 적합하다고 사료된다.

X 연관 부신백질이영양증(adrenoleukodystrophy, ALD)은 과산화소체베타산화과정(peroxisomal ${\beta}$-oxidation)의 장애로 매우긴사슬지방산(very long chain fatty acids, VLCFA)이 신경계의 백질과 부신피질 및 고환에 축척된다. 이 질환은 과산화소체막단백질(peroxisomal membrane protein)을 형성하는 Xq28에 위치하는 ATP-binding cassette, subfamily D, member 1 (ABCD1) 유전자 돌연변이에 의해 주로 발생한다. X 연관 ALD는 다양한 임상양상을 보이는데 전형적인 소아대뇌형 부신백질이영양증은 10세 이전의 남아에서 대뇌백질에 빠르게 진행하는 탈수초현상을 보인다. 8세 된 남자 환아로 정상발달과정을 보이던 중 초등학교 입학 후에 집중장애와 산만한 모습으로 인해 주의력결핍과다활동장애로 진단받고 치료를 받았었다. 환아는 내원 8개월 전부터 말이 어눌해 지고 걸을 때 오른 발을 끌며 자주 넘어지는 모습을 보여 내원하였고 오른쪽 상, 하지의 근력이 떨어지는 양상이 관찰되었다. 검사상 부신기능저하증 소견을 보였으며 혈청 지방산 분석검사에서는 C26:0, C42:0/C22:0, C26:0/C22:0가 증가하였다. 뇌 자기공명영상에서는 T2와 FLAIR 강조영상에서 양측의 두정후두부의 백질과 소뇌의 백질에서 대칭적으로 고신호강도를 보였다. 환아는 부신백질이영양증로 진단하였고 ABCD1 유전자 분석 검사에서 새로운 c.983delT (p.Met329CysfsX7) 돌연변이가 확인되었다. X 연관 ALD는 유전자형과 표현형에 연관성이 없으며 다양한 임상양상을 보이기 때문에 환자들마다 임상증상을 잘 관찰해야 하며 향후 유전자 기능을 좀 더 파악하고 임상증상에 영향을 주는 다른 요소에 대한 연구가 필요할 것이라 사료된다.
