Antibiotics have long been of great benefit for people, both in the medical treatment of human disease and in animal food where they improve the growth performance and feed utilization during animal production. Antibiotics as in-feed supplements affect all stages of pork production, including the gestation, nursing, growing, and finishing stages, although the effects show stage-dependent differences. However, the use of antibiotics in animal feed has become a worldwide concern. This review describes why sub-therapeutic levels of antibiotic additives in animal feed have become an integral part of animal feeding programs for more than 70 years, particularly in pork production. It also discusses the threat of the long-term use of sub-therapeutic levels of antibiotics in pork production. In recent years, the effectiveness of in-feed antibiotics has tended to decrease. This review analyzes this change from various perspectives. First, the equipment used at pig farms has improved dramatically and is more sanitary. Worldwide, more pig farms use pig farrowing crates, gestation crates, piglet nursery crates, flooring devices, piggery ventilation and cooler systems, automatic pig feeders, piggery heating equipment, and artificial insemination systems. In addition, scientists have replaced the use of antibiotics with organic acids, fermented mash, probiotics, prebiotics, minerals, oligosaccharides, enzymes, herbs/flavors, and protein/amino acids, and have improved management and husbandry techniques. In addition, animal welfare legislation has been aimed at improving the quality of the floors and living space, ensuring that animals have permanent access to fresh water, and setting a minimum weaning age. Finally, the prospects and the possibility of replacing antibiotics in pork production are described, in line with recent research results.

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR) is performed by artificial ventilation and thoracic compression for the patient under emergent situation to maintain at least the minimum level of respiration and blood circulation for life survival. Quality of the pre-hospital CPR not only significantly affects the patient's survival rate but also minimizes side effects caused by CPR. Good quality CPR requires monitoring respiration, however, traditional respiratory air flow transducers cannot be used because the transducer elements are located on the flow axis. The present study developed a new technique with no physical object on the flow stream but enabling the air flow measurement and easily incorporated with the CPR devices. A turbulence chamber was formed in the middle of the respiratory tube by locally enlarging the cross-sectional area where the flow related turbulence was generated inducing energy loss which was in turn converted into pressure difference. The turbulence chamber was simply an empty enlarged air space, thus no physical object was placed on the flow stream, but still the flow rate could be evaluated. Both inspiratory and expiratory flows were obtained with symmetric measurement characteristics. Quadratic curve fitting provided excellent calibration formula with a correlation coefficient>0.999 (P<0.0001) and the mean relative error<1 %. The present results can be usefully applied to accurately monitor the air flow rate during CPR.

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is performed by thoracic compression and artificial ventilation for the patient under emergent situation to maintain at least the minimum level of respiration and blood circulation for life survival. Good quality CPR requires monitoring respiration, however, traditional respiratory air flow transducers cannot be used because the transducer elements are facing the whole area perpendicular to the flow axis. The present study developed a new air flow transducer conveniently applicable to CPR. Specially designed "sensing rod" samples the air velocity at 3 different locations of the flow cross-section, then transforms into average dynamic pressure by the Bernoulli's law. The symmetric structure of the sensing holes of the sensing rod enables bi-directional measurement simply by taking the difference in pressure by a commercial differential pressure transducer. Both inspiratory and expiratory flows were obtained with symmetric measurement characteristics. Quadratic curve fitting provided excellent calibration formula with a correlation coefficient>0.999 (P<0.0001) and the mean relative error<1%. The present results can be usefully applied to accurately monitor the air flow rate during CPR.

Since the accomplishment of industrialization and mechanization, human and the nature have gone farther their own way. Human depending on technology have been increasingly expanding and developing their artificial space and as times go by in such a way, estrangement between the human and nature has resulted in dissatisfaction of human's instinctual desire and devastation of human's living. People, to deal with such challenge, begins taking a look at the nature. In introducing the nature into the modern architecture, a physical natural element is often directly taken into or the shape that could be inferred from the nature is taken. The study was intended to identify the characteristics of the pattern introducing the nature into the modern architecture, as mentioned in the former case, which is summarized as follows, Introduction of the nature contains a variety of functions in the space and it creates the new space by integrating the internal and external space which becomes boundaryless integrated space. The boundary in the building tends to be getting more ambiguous, while the space accommodating the nature serves the interface, playing a role of intermediator for both the internal and external space. It functions the open public place that helps build the natural community among the users but taking the nature into the inner space, and it is used to attempt to change the interior of the building or for ventilation lighting or energy-saving purpose. The spatial meaning was found to have varied depending on pattern of the nature introduced. Such conclusions mentioned hereon is expected to help forecast and understand the forthcoming space accommodating the nature when reviewing the pattern of introducing the nature appeared In modern architecture.

We provided general anesthesia management to a patient with advanced atrioventricular block, which was discovered in the remote period after open-heart surgery. A 21-year-old man with Noonan syndrome was scheduled to undergo excision of a median intramandibular tumor. At 2 months of age, the patient underwent endocardial repair for congenital heart disease. During our preoperative examination, an atrioventricular block was detected, which had not been previously noted. Emergency drugs were administered, and a transcutaneous pacemaker was placed. During anesthesia induction, mask ventilation was easy, and intubation was performed smoothly using a video laryngoscope. The transcutaneous pacemaker was activated in demand mode at a pacing rate of 50 cycles/min approximately throughout the anesthesia time, and the hemodynamic status remained stable. The effect of intraoperatively administered atropine was brief, lasting only a few seconds. Although body movements due to thoracoabdominal muscle spasm were observed during pacemaker activation, they did not interfere with surgery. In postoperative patients with congenital heart disease, an atrioventricular block may be identified in the remote period, and preoperative evaluation should be based on this possibility. In addition, during anesthesia management, it is important to prepare multiple measures to maintain hemodynamic status.

최근 급속한 경제 성장과 함께 국내 산업기반 시설과 국민생활기반 시설과 같은 국내 건축물 고급화로 천연석재 마감재 수요 증가와 동시에 국내 채석장 수도 증가하고 있다. 이에 따라 채석장의 증가와 함께 채석장에서 발생하는 환경오염으로 주변 지역 피해가 주목받고 있다. 예를 들자면, 채석장으로부터 흘러나온 석면이나 분진이 응집되어 생기는 고체와 같은 발암물질로부터 지역 주민들은 위협받고 있다. 특히 석면에서 방출되는 라돈가스는 지구상 어디에나 존재하고 토양과 암석에서 방출되는 자연방사능 물질로 흡연에 이어 폐암 발병의 주요 원인이다. 실내 환기량이 부족한 상태에서 실내공기 오염원이 지속적으로 순환될 경우, 두통, 현기증 등의 인체반응이 나타나면서 거주자의 건강을 위협하기 때문에 유해물질 저감이 시급한 실정이다. 주택 실내공기질의 오염원 중 하나인 라돈가스의 경우 방출원에서 반감기를 거쳐 계속해서 방출되는 특성을 가지고 있으므로 완벽한 제거보다 방출원에 대한 제어가 필요하다. 라돈가스와 같은 유해물질 흡착 성능을 가진 버미큘라이트의 첨가율을 10%로 고정하고 현무암 폐석을 50, 60, 70, 80% 첨가하여 실험을 진행하였다. 실험의 결과로 'KS F 4035,기성 테라죠'에 의거하여 종합적으로 고려할 때 현무암 폐석의 첨가율 70%에서 최적의 인조석재를 제조할 수 있는 것으로 판명되었다.

인공부화기 내에 종란이 입란하여 18일간 발생기를 거쳐 발육기로 이란을 한다. 발생기 동안 계태아 무게 손실은 곧 기실형성과 상관되며 적당한 기실 형성은 곧 건강한 초생추와 입란 대비 부화율과도 연결된다. 그러나 국내 부화장의 부화기에는 현재 무게를 측정하는 장치 없이 부화실장과 관계자의 경험과 발육기로 이란시 표준 무게 측정으로 결과적 측면을 습득하는 것이 현실이다. 그로 인하여 부화 중 조기 폐사, 약추, 병약한 초생추 발생이 빈번한 실정이다. 종란 중량 감소를 모니터링하는 것은 발육장치기 안에서의 무게 변화에 따른 병아리 품질과 부화율 성과를 얻는 데에 절대적으로 중요하다. 종란의 크기와 난각질, 노계 군에 따라 수분 손실은 각기 다르다. 발육기 안에서 무게 변화를 실시간 측정하고 그에 따른 환기 변화를 최적화하여 부화율의 증가를 기대할 수 있으며 부화 시 전체 무게의 10~13% 감소를 컨트롤할 수 있는 실시간 측정 시스템의 개발 필요성이 대두된다. 본 연구를 통한 시스템은 기존의 입란과 이란시 직접적으로 일회성을 체크하는 방식으로 발육 기간 내에는 계태아 수분 증발 측정 제어가 불가능하여 부화율에 영향을 못 미치는 시스템과 달리 아두이노 스케치 보드에 로드셀 4개를 병렬로 연결하고 실시간으로 휴대폰, 컴퓨터를 연결하기 위해 Hyper-terminal 프로그램을 이용하여 AT-command 명령어를 활용하여 정상적으로 연동하였다. 블루투스의 통신속도는 15200으로 설정하여 아두이노와 Hyper-terminal 프로그램의 통신 속도를 맞춰주었다. 실시간 모니터링을 하여 인공부화기 내의 계태아 무게의 변화를 육안으로 확인할 수 있도록 시스템을 설계하였다. 이와 같은 방법으로 종란의 부화율 상승 및 건강상태의 향상을 목표로 하였으며 실시간 모니터링으로 인하여 사용자의 편의성을 확대하고자 하였다.
