This paper presents an archaeological interpretation of the results of conservation treatment and scientific analysis of the ancient Chinese bronze coin known as Huo Quan(貨泉) coins excavated from Tomb No. 4 at the Madeung Archaeological Site in Heukcheon-ri, Haenam. Huo Quan coins were issued in China by Wang Mang(王莽) when he founded the short-lived Xin(新) Dynasty and were used in the Samhan(三韓) period in Korea. A total of thirteen Huo Quan coins were excavated from the Madeung Archeological Site with some coins fused to each other. They were classified as clusters A, B, and C. On a coin from the B cluster the classical Chinese characters "貨泉" are visible to the naked eye, but no characters are visually identifiable in the other coins. For conservation treatment, foreign substances attached to the surfaces of the coins were removed, weak materials were reinforced with protective coatings, and fragments were reattached to the main bodies of the coins. Next, Nano CT scanning was conducted to identify the exact number of coins within the clusters and examine the surface condition of the coins. It revealed the inscription "貨泉" on twelve out of thirteen coins. In addition to these coins excavated from Heukcheon-ri, a number of coins were excavated from a tomb in Bokryong-dong, Gwangju. This necessitates an investigation into the possible development of a monetary economy in this region.

Gloeostereum incarnatum has edible and medicinal value and was first cultivated and domesticated in China. We sequenced the G. incarnatum monokaryotic strain GiC-126 on an Illumina HiSeq X Ten system and obtained a 34.52-Mb genome assembly sequence that encoded 16,895 predicted genes. We combined the GiC-126 genome with the published genome of G. incarnatum strain CCMJ2665 to construct a genetic linkage map (GiC-126 genome) that had 10 linkage groups (LGs), and the 15 assembly sequences of CCMJ2665 were integrated into 8 LGs. We identified 1912 simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci and detected 700 genes containing 768 SSRs in the genome; 65 and 100 of them were annotated with gene ontology (GO) terms and KEGG pathways, respectively. Carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) were identified in 20 fungal genomes and annotated; among them, 144 CAZymes were annotated in the GiC-126 genome. The A mating-type locus (MAT-A) of G. incarnatum was located on scaffold885 at 38.9 cM of LG1 and was flanked by two homeodomain (HD1) genes, mip and beta-fg. Fourteen segregation distortion markers were detected in the genetic linkage map, all of which were skewed toward the parent GiC-126. They formed three segregation distortion regions (SDR1-SDR3), and 22 predictive genes were found in scaffold1920 where three segregation distortion markers were located in SDR1. In this study, we corrected and updated the genomic information of G. incarnatum. Our results will provide a theoretical basis for fine gene mapping, functional gene cloning, and genetic breeding the follow-up of G. incarnatum.

The objective of this study was to examine the relationship between meat quality attributes and the changes of sarcoplasmic protein acetylation and myofibrillar protein acetylation in lamb longissimus thoracis et lumborum muscles at different postmortem phases. Protein acetylation, color, pH, shear force, myofibril fragmentation index and cooking loss were measured. The total level of acetylated sarcoplasmic proteins showed a negative relation with pH, a positive relation with a^*, b^* and cooking loss at the pre-rigor phase. Sarcoplasmic proteins acetylation affected postmortem pH by regulating glycolysis, which in turn affects color and cooking loss. The total level of acetylated myofibrillar proteins showed a positive relation with shear force at the pre-rigor phase. Myofibrillar proteins acetylation affected meat tenderness by regulating muscle contraction. This study indicated that acetylation played a regulatory role of meat color, water-holding capacity, and tenderization process at early postmortem.

Zhuangzi contends that one of the reasons to cause life difficulties is mistaking the truth of cosmos and the existence meaning of human. There is no difference of value between the existence of human and universal creatures. However, "human mind" can not being peaceful because of " ChengXin(成心)" causes the difference of right and wrong. Zhuangzi contends the ideal world is "ZhiDe zhi World(至德之世)" of unmoved mind. Because of the value of "RenYiDaoDe(仁義道德)" in politics, the status of ideal existence of human and creatures is destroyed, i.e., disturbing the status of peaceful mind. This is also a reason of life difficulties. Zhuangzi contends the reasonable relationship of human and creatures is to recognize creatures as creatures, and therefore, there is no difference of value between creatures. Additionally, one shall understand the concept of "universal creatures are the same(萬物?一)" is based on the fact of continuous change of universal creatures. The socalled concept of "universal creatures are the same(萬物?一)" in Zhuangzi's thought is based on three dimensions: one is the materials of forming universal creatures; one is the same meaning of "Hisn" between human and creatures, and universal creatures are continuously changing. Therefore, one shall get a clear understanding of the nature of things, and one may treat the universal creatures in the concept of "universal creatures are the same(萬物?一)".

In Shanghaibochujian-ZhouYi, there are a few special signs in red and black that had never been found in previous ZhouYi texts. Pu Mao Zuo (?茅左), who first sorted out Shanghaibochujian-ZhouYi, classified the signs into six types and explained them in terms of Yin-Yang theory. On the other hand, Li Shang Xin (李尙信) classified the signs into seven types and argued that these signs show that the order of the hexagrams(卦序) in Shanghaibochujian-ZhouYi is completely identical with that of the current version of ZhouYi. Edward L. Shaughnessy also conjectured that the order of the hexagrams(卦序) of Shanghaibochujian-ZhouYi is identical with that of the current version of Zhouyi after his material analysis of the Bamboo slips(竹簡) substance. Kondo Hiroyuki (近藤浩之) is based his interpretation of the order of the hexagrams(卦序) on his own classification of the signs which identified nine types. All these opinions contain some problems and given that the number of the Bamboo slips(竹簡) are very limited, we have to be very careful when we draw a conclusion. Shanghaibochujian-ZhouYi's signs can be possible when we suppose a 64-hexagrams(64卦) system instead of the 8-trigrams(8卦) system, which demands a reexamination of the common view that the 8-trigrams system preceded the 64-hexagrams system.

This study aims to identify the concept of "You(游)" as the aesthetic attitude in the Traditional Chinese Painting Theory. Traditional painting has a purpose to spread painting spirits and have consistently pursued "Xin(神, spiritual being)" as the truth of a thing. However, the contents of "spiritual being", "form" and "qi" that "describe the spiritual being" have been changed. Therefore, although the theory of form and spirit can be a way to explain chinese paintings, there is a limitation to actively explain the changes in description of spiritual being. In order to find out the basis to explain the changes of spiritual being as the truth of a thing, this study investigated the concept of "You(游)" as the attitude of the artist focusing on "experiences in painting". "Tuhua Jianwenzhi" and "Linquan Gaozhi" in the Song Dynasty adopted the attitude of "You" to explain the painting theory and proceeded exploration on things with the attitude to pursue the "truth" of a thing described in "Eye of Painting" and "KuguahuoshangHuayulu". The aesthetic values generated in the attitude of "You" refer to "qing si(情思)" and "yi si(意思)" in Song Dynasty; "gao yin zhi si (高隱之思)" in the Meng Dynasty; and the law of "one stroke(一?)" in Qing Dynasty.

A general idea and the structure of Wangshouren's philosophy is intimately associated with "Daxue". Systemicity of Wangshouren's Xinxue stand on the basis of a mind, intention, innate knowledge and things. "Daxuewen" is a series of a process of gongfu. It stand on the basis of a mind, intention, innate knowledge and things, same as Four-Sentence Teaching. Wangshouren's gongfu theory of "Daxue" changes from gewu to chengyi, from chengyi to zhizhi again. It is deepening of Wangshouren's philosophy and is the change of education. It is also that Wangshouren's gongfu theory internalize anything. He spent his younger life in pursuit of Zhuxi's gewu. Through a lecture of LongChang, Wangshouren's gongfu theory of "Daxue" changes from extroversion to introversion. According to Wangshouren' opinion, "Daxuewen" is the tenet of the XinXue, same as Four-Sentence Teaching. This papers mainly emphases two points: one, to analyze the thinking system of Wangshouren's "Daxuewen", make a comparative study of befour "Daxuewen" and after "Daxuewen". another, through this work we can understand thoroughly Wangshouren's viewpoint of "Daxue".

Objective: This study was conducted to investigate the effect of fermented cottonseed meal (FCSM) on growth performance, carcass traits, and fat deposition in white-feather broiler chickens. Methods: A total of 480 male one-day-old white-feather broiler chickens were selected randomly and divided into four groups with six replicates of 20 chickens in each. The experimental chickens were fed diets including 3%, 6%, or 9% FCSM fermented by Candida tropicalis until 42 days old. In the experiment, the chickens of the control group were fed soybean meal. Results: FCSM supplementation linearly decreased the feed conversion ratio from d 15 to 21 and d 36 to 42, respectively (p<0.05). The percentage of carcass and semi-eviscerate increased in response to dietary FCSM supplementation at d 21 (p<0.05). The percentage of eviscerated and semi-eviscerate of 3FCSM was higher than that in other groups at d 35 (p<0.05). At the age of 42 d, the percentage of carcass increased in a quadratic way among increasing FCSM in diets (p<0.05). The subcutaneous fat thickness linearly decreased with the increasing levels of FCSM at d 21 (p<0.05). Gompertz and Logistic functions provided a better fit on abdominal fat and subcutaneous fat, respectively. The best fitted equation predicted that the maximum growth rate of abdominal fat weight and subcutaneous fat thickness occurred at d 28. FCSM had no significant effects on the shape of growth curve of abdominal fat weight and subcutaneous fat thickness, but reduced the height of the curve. Birds receiving the 6FCSM diet for 21 d had smaller adipocyte surface and lower serum glucose as well as triglyceride concentration. Conclusion: FCSM is beneficial for broiler chickens as it positively affects their growth and carcass in addition to altering their fat deposition.

In this study, a circular pipe can be installed by suction pressure for construction on soft ground with a low-water level. A series of laboratory-scale model tests were conducted in sandy ground to comprehend the suction pressure of the circular pipe in low-water levels. For repeated tests on saturated sandy soil, a container was mounted with three vibration generators on the floor. A repetitive vibration was applied using the vibration system for ground compaction. In the model tests, different diameters and thicknesses on saturated sandy soil with a water depth were considered. The result showed that the suction pressure increased with increasing penetration depth of the circular pipe. Moreover, the suction pressure required to penetrate the pipe decreased with increasing diameter. In the low-water level, the total suction pressure measured at the top lid increased because additional suction pressure is required to lift the water column. On the other hand, this led to a decrease in suction pressure to penetrate the circular pipe because the weight of the water column is applied as a dead load. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the water level to design the required suction pressure accurately.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the level of health literacy (HL) and self-management adherence and to investigate the relationship between HL and self-management adherence in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods: The participants of this study were 165 patients with COPD from a tertiary general hospital located in G city from February 10th to May 10th, 2021. The general HL was measured by the Korean health literacy assessment tool (KHLAT), COPD specific HL was measured by COPD-related HL tool, and COPD self-management adherence was measured by the COPD self-management tool. Results: The mean score of general HL was 60.45±9.42. The mean score of the COPD-related HL was 47.03±8.82. The mean score of the COPD self-management adherence was 87.58±14.47. There were significant differences in the level of COPD-related HL according to age (t=2.43, p=.016), and in the level of general HL (F=10.96, p<.001) and the level of COPD-related HL according to the level of education (F=19.14, p<.001). There were significant correlations between the level of general HL and the level of COPD-related HL (r=.75, p<.001) and the level of COPD-related HL and the level of self-management adherence (r=.219, p=.005). Conclusion: The HL of COPD patients was at the level of mild school 1-2 years in this study. Therefore, nurses who care for COPD patients should understand patients' level of HL and communicate self-management skills with patients at a level appropriate for patients' HL. In addition, it is necessary to develop strategies to easily learn COPD-related information when providing self management skills or training.
