  • 목적 : 국소적으로 진행된 자궁경부암환자에서 방사선 치료와 5-FU, CDDP 복합항암요법의 동시 치료에 의한 종양관해율, 치료부작용, 예후인자, 실패양상과 생존율을 분석하기 위하여 전향적 제 2상연구를 시행하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 울산대학교 서울중앙병원 방사선종양학과와 산부인과에서 1992년 5월부터 1997년 1월까지 FIGO병기 IIB, III, IVA의 국소적으로 진행된 자궁경부암으로 진단받고 치료한 환자 73명중 방사선치료와 동시에 2회의 FP 항암요법을 시행한 68명을 대상으로 분석을 시행하였다. FIGO병기에 의한 분포는 IIB 46명, IIIA 2명, IIIB 15명, IVA 5명이었고, 이들의 연령분포는 31세에서 77세까지로 중앙값 58세이었다. 방사선치료시 외부조사는 전골반부에 4,140-5,040 cGy를 시행후 192Ir 고선량 근접치료기로 주 3회씩 6-7회의 강내조사를 시행하며 동시에 B점추가 조사를 시행하여 A점에 7,500-8,000 cGy, B점에 6,000-6,500 cGy가 되도록 조사하였다. FP(5-FU; 1,000mg/$m^2$/24 hours, 4 days+CDDP; 20mg/$m^2$/3 hours, 3 days) 항암화학요법은 방사선치료 시작 제 1일과 제 29일에 각각 4일간 투여하도록 하였다. 치료효과는 치료종료시점과 치료후 1개월, 3개월에 시행한 부인과 검사와 MRI로 판정하였다. 결과 : 전체 환자의 추적기간은 4개월에서 68개월 (중앙값 24개월)이었다. 생존율을 분석한 환자 64명의 5년생존율 및 무병생존율은 각각 52$\%$와 64$\%$였으며, FIGO병기 IIB인 환자의 5년생존율과 무병생존율은 각각 58$\%$, 71$\%$이었고, FIGO병기 III와 IVA인 환자는 각각 36$\%$, 46$\%$이었다. 재발양상은 전체 재발율이 27.9$\%$ (19/68)로, 국소재발이 5.9$\%$ (4/68), 원격전이가 10.3$\%$(7/68), 국소재발과 원격전이가 같이 있는 경우가 11.8$\%$ (8/68)로 나타났다. 치료종료 한달 후 치료 효과를 판정할 수 있었던 64명중 78$\%$ (50/64)가 완전관해를 보였다. 예후인자는 단변량분석시 5년생존율에 FIGO병기, 치료반응율, 골반내와 대동맥주위 림프절 전이유무가 통계적으로 의미 있었고, 다변량분석시 치료반응율과 치료중 혈색소 농도가 통계적으로 의의있게 나타났다. 치료에 따른 독성은 10$\%$내외로 치료후 대부분 자연 회복되었으나, 2차 항암약물투여중 폐부종이 발생한 1명과 치료종료후 8개월에 만성합병증인 장천공이 발생한 1명은 치료에 따른 부작용으로 사망하였다. 결론 : 국소적으로 진행된 자궁경부암에 대한 방사선치료와 복합항암요법의 동시치료는 수용 가능한 독성을 보였고, 진행된 경우 생존율의 향상을 관찰할 수 있었다. 좀 더 장기적인 추적관찰후 여러 예후인자들을 고려하여 초기 치료반응율을 높이는 치료방법의 선택이 필요하리라 생각되며, 동시 방사선-항암화학요법의 종양관해율과 생존율의 차이를 알아보기 위한 제 3상 무작위연구가 필요한 것으로 생각된다.

  • 본(本) 연구(硏究)는 계획기간내(計劃期間內)의 재적수확량(材積收穫量)을 최대화(最大化)하고 각분기(各分期)의 수확량(收穫量)과 수확면적(收穫面積)을 일정(一定) 범위(範圍)로 제약(制約)하여 계획기간내(計劃期間內)의 보속수확(保續收穫)을 도모(圖謀)하는 동시(同時)에 후계림(後繼林)의 법정영급배치(法正令級配置)가 유도(誘導)될 수 있는 적정수확안(適正收穫案)을 선형계획법(線型計劃法)에 의하여 선정(選定)하고, 제약량(制約量)의 변화(變化)가 총수확량(總收穫量) 및 분기별(分期別) 수확량(收穫量)과 수확면적(收穫面積)에 미치는 영향(影響)을 구명(究明)하는데 목적(目的)이 있다. 서울 대학교(大學校) 농과대학(農科大學) 부속연습림중(附屬演習林中) 개벌작업급(皆伐作業級)에 속하는 219개(個) 소반(小班)을 대상(對象)으로 하였으며, 이 삼림(森林)은 영급구성면(令級構成面)에서 볼 때 유영급(幼令級) 임분(林分)이 많다는 점(點)에서 전국(全國) 삼림(森林)을 대표(代表)한다고 할 수 있다. 본(本) 연구(硏究)에서는 한 분기년수(分期年數)를 5년(年), 계획기간(計劃期間)을 10분기(分期), 1영급(令級)을 5영개(令皆)로 하였으며, 벌채영급(伐採令級)의 범위(範圍)는 5~9영급(令級)이다. 한편, 후계림(後繼林)은 현실림(現實林)이 수확(收穫)되는 즉시 조림(造林)되고, 미립목지(未立木地)는 1분기내(分期內)에 조림(造林)되며 다음 벌기(伐期)까지 충분(充分)한 입목도(立木度)가 이루어지는 것으로 전제(前提)하였다. 소반(小班)을 벌구(伐區)로 하여, 각벌구(各伐區)가 계획기간내(計劃期間內)에 벌채(伐採)될 수 있는 모든 가능(可能)한 대체수확안(代替收穫案)을 그의 영급(令級)에 따라 작성(作成)하고, 여기에 현실림(現實林)과 후계림(後繼林)의 벌기예상수확량(伐期豫想收穫量)을 대입(代入)하여 각대체안(各代替案)의 계획(計劃) 기간내(期間內) 수확량(收穫量)($V_{i,\;k}$)을 산정(算定)하였다. 이때 각벌구(各伐區)의 벌기예상수확량(伐期豫想收穫量)은 기존(旣存) 임분수확표(林分收穫表)와 산림조사부(山林調査簿) 자료(資料)를 이용(利用)하는 범위내(範圍內)에서 추정(推定)하였으며, 각벌구(各伐區)에 소속(所屬)되는 대체수확안중(代替收穫案中)에서 $V_{i,\;k}$가 가장 큰 수확안(收穫案)을 적정수확안(適正收穫案)으로 선정(選定)하였다. 우선 제약조건(制約條件)이 없을 때의 적정수확안(適正收穫案)을 선정(選定)하여 분기별(分期別) 수확량(收穫量)과 수확면적(收穫面積), 총수확량(總收穫量)을 계산(計算)한 다음, 이를 기준(基準)으로 하여 분기별(分期別) 수확량(收穫量)의 상한(上限)($V_{j-max}$)과 하한(下限)($V_{j-min}$) 및 수확면적(收穫面積)의 상한(上限)($A_{j-max}$)과 하한(下限)($A_{j-min}$)을 결정(決定)하였다. 이러한 여러가지 제약조건하(制約條件下)의 적정수확안(適正收穫案)은 LP수확조절(收穫調節)모델을 유도(誘導)하여 선정(選定)하였으며, 제약조건(制約條件) 및 벌채영급범위(伐採令級範圍)의 변화(變化)가 총수확량(總收穫量)에 미치는 영향(影響)을 분석(分析)하고자 감응도분석(感應度分析)을 실시(實施)하였다. 본(本) 연구(硏究) 결과(結果)를 요약(要約)하면 다음과 같다. 1. 제약조건(制約條件) 없이 적정수확안(適正收穫案)을 선정(選定)한 결과(結果), 수확면적(收穫面積)이 분기별(分期別)로 큰 차이(差異)를 보였다. 즉, 총수확량(總收穫量)의 68.8%가 10분기(分期)에 편재(偏在)되어 있고 6~7분기(分期)에는 전(全)혀 수확량(收穫量)이 없으며, 분기별(分期別) 수확면적(收穫面積)도 이와 유사(類似)한 경향(傾向)을 보였다. 이와 같이 분기별(分期別) 수확량(收穫量) 및 수확면적(收穫面積)에 차이(差異)가 많은 것은 현실림(現實林)의 영급구성(令級構成)과 입목축적(立木蓄積)이 대단히 불규칙(不規則)하기 때문이다. 2. 수확량(收穫量)과 수확면적(收穫面積)의 분기별(分期別) 변동폭(變動幅)을 줄이면서 계획기간내(計劃期間內)의 재적수확량(材積收穫量)을 최대화(最大化)하고자, LP수확조절(收穫調節) 모델에 의하여 $A_{min}=150ha$ $A_{max}=400ha$, $V_{min}=5,000m^3$, $V_{max}=50,000m^3$일 때의 적정수확안(適正收穫案)을 선정(選定)한 결과(結果), 대체(大體)로 5분기(分期) 이후(以後)부터 보속수확(保續收穫)과 법정영급배치(法正令級配置)가 가능(可能)하게 되었다. 3. LP수확조절(收穫調節)모델에 간벌계획(間伐計劃)을 포함(包含)시켜 최적해(最適解)를 구(求)하면, 총수확량(總收穫量)이 증가(增加)함은 물론, 간벌계획(間伐計劃)을 포함(包含)시키지 않았을 경우(境遇)에 비하여 분기별(分期別) 보속수확(保續收穫)의 실현(實現)에 유리(有利)한 적정수확안(適正收穫案)을 선정(選定)해 주는 효과(效果)가 있다. 4. 보속수확(保續收穫)과 법정영급배치(法正令級配置)가 실현(實現)될 수 있는 시기(時期)는 제약량(制約量)의 강도(强度)가 높아짐에 따라서 빨라지며, 분기별(分期別) 수확량(收穫量)은 수확면적(收穫面積)에 비하여 제약량(制約量)의 변화(變化)에 따른 평준화(平準化) 경향(傾向)이 뚜렷하고, 분기별(分期別) 수확량(收穫量)의 평준화(平準化)가 이루어지면 분기별(分期別) 수확면적(收穫面積)은 이에 종속(從屬)되어 평준화(平準化)하는 경향(傾向)이 있다. 5. 제약조건(制約條件)의 강도(强度)가 높아짐에 따라 총수확량(總收穫量)은 점감적(漸減的)으로 감소(減少)하므로 빠른 시기(時期)에 엄정보속(嚴正保續)과 엄정영급배치(嚴正令級配置)를 의도(意圖)할 수록 총수확량(總收穫量)의 손실(損失)은 그만큼 더 증가(增加)한다. 6. 같은 계획기간(計劃期間) 및 제약조건하(制約條件下)에서의 총수확량(總收穫量)은 벌채영급(伐採令級)을 낮추고, 그 범위(範圍)를 넓힐수록 증가(增加)한다. 또한 벌채영급(伐採令級) 범위(範圍)의 상한(上限)을 고정(固定)하고, 그 하한(下限)을 1영급(令級)씩 높였을 때에 총수확량(總收穫量)이 감소(減少)되는 속도(速度)는, 그 범위(範圍)의 하한(下限)을 고정(固定)하고 상한(上限)을 1영급(令級)씩 낮추었을 때의 감소(減少) 속도(速度)보다 크다. 7. 본(本) 연구(硏究)에 제시(提示)된 LP수확조절(收穫調節)모델은 영급구성(令級構成)이 복잡(複雜)한 임분(林分)에 적용(適用) 가능(可能)하며, 간벌계획(間伐計劃)을 간단히 포함(包含)시킬 수 있고, 제약량(制約量)의 변화(變化)에 따른 총수확량(總收穫量)의 손실(損失)을 쉽게 계측(計測)할 수 있는 등 여러가지 장점(長點)이 있으므로, 우리나라의 현행(現行) 삼림수확조절법(森林收穫調節法)을 보완(補完)하기 위해서도 이 기법(技法)이 유효(有效)하게 이용(利用)될 수 있을 것으로 보인다.

  • 본 연구에서는 지구적 차원에서 생물다양성의 성립 배경과 그동안 일어난 변화 그리고 기후변화가 생물다양성 및 인간에 미치는 영향을 밝히고 그 영향을 줄이기 위한 대안을 제시하였다. 생물다양성은 생명체의 풍부한 정도이며, 생물을 구분하는 모든 수준에서의 다양성을 종합적으로 의미한다. 즉, 생물다양성은 유전자, 종 그리고 생태계 전반과 그들의 상호작용을 아우른다. 이는 생태계의 기반을 구성하며, 모든 사람들이 필수적으로 의존하는 서비스를 제공한다. 그럼에도 불구하고 오늘날 생물다양성은 주로 인간 활동에 의해 점점 더 위협받고 있다. 지구상의 생물은 생명이 탄생한 이래 약 40억년의 역사를 통해 다양한 환경에 적응하고 진화한 결과, 약 1000만 내지 3000만종으로 추정되는 다양한 생물이 존재하게 되었다. 생물다양성을 구성하는 무수한 생명들은 각각의 고유한 특성을 가지고 있으며 다양한 관계 속에 얽혀 있다. 우리들이 현재 생활하고 있는 지구의 환경도 이러한 생물체의 방대한 연관성과 상호작용에 의해 긴 세월 동안 만들어져 왔으며, 인류도 하나의 생물로서 다른 생물들과 관계를 맺으며 살아가고 있다. 이러한 주위의 생물들이 없다면 사람도 살아갈 수 없다. 그러나 인류는 최근 수 백 년 간 과거의 평균 멸종속도를 1000배 가량이나 가속시켜 왔다. 우리는 미래 세대의 풍요로운 삶을 위해서라도 생물다양성을 보전하는 한편, 지속가능하게 이용할 책임이 있다. 우리나라는 세계 어느 국가보다도 빠른 경제 성장을 이루어왔으나, 동시에 이는 남북으로 길게 뻗은 반도 국가라는 지리적 특성에 의해 본래 풍부했던 생물다양성을 빠르게 소실시키는 결과를 야기하였다. 한국인은 오랫동안 농업, 임업 그리고 어업을 해오는 과정에서 자연과의 공존을 통해 독특한 고유의 문화를 창조하였다. 그러나 근래 서구문명의 유입과 과학 기술의 발전 과정에서 이러한 자연과의 관계는 멀어지게 되었으며, 자연과 문화 사이의 조화로운 조합에 의해 창출된 고유한 풍토는 점점 더 사라지고 있다. 한국의 인구는 세계 인구가 지속적으로 증가하는 것과는 반대로 점차 줄어들 것으로 예측되고 있다. 이 시점에서 우리는 인구 감소에 의한 자연의 회복에 발맞추어 급속한 인구 증가 및 경제 성장으로 인해 훼손된 생물다양성을 복원할 필요가 있다. 지구상에 생명이 탄생한 이래 다섯차례의 대멸종이 있었다. 현대의 대멸종은 매우 급속히 진행되고 있으며, 인간 활동에 의한 영향이 주요 원인인 점에서 이전의 것과 구분된다. 기후변화는 실제로 일어나고 있으며, 생물다양성은 이러한 변화에 매우 취약하다. 만약 생명체가 변화하는 환경에서 '진화를 통한 적응', '생존가능한 다른 지역으로의 이주' 등과 같은 생존 방법을 찾아내지 못한다면 이들은 절멸할 것이므로, 기후변화가 지속된다면 생물다양성은 극도로 훼손될 수 밖에 없다. 따라서 우리는 이러한 훼손정도를 최소화하기 위해 기후변화가 생물다양성에 미치는 영향을 보다 적극적이고 심도있게 파악할 필요가 있다. 생물계절의 변화, 식생 이동을 비롯한 분포 범위의 변화, 생물 간 상호작용의 부조화, 먹이 사슬 이상에 기인한 번식 및 생장률 감소, 산호초 백화현상 등이 기후변화에 미치는 영향으로 등장하고 있다. 질병의 확산, 식량 생산 감소, 작물 경작지 범위 변화, 어장 및 어업시기의 변화 등은 인간에 대한 영향으로 나타나고 있다. 기후변화 문제를 해결하기 위해 우선, 우리는 온실 가스 배출량을 감소시켜 기후변화 완화를 시도할 필요가 있다. 그러나 현재 우리가 온실가스 배출을 당장 멈추더라도, 기후변화는 당분간 지속될 전망이다. 이런 점에서, 기후변화 적응 전략을 준비하는 것이 더 현실적이 될 수 있다. 생물다양성에 대한 기후변화 영향의 지속적 모니터링 및 보다 적합한 모니터링 체계 구축이 선행과제가 될 수 있다. 생물다양성이 성립할 수 있는 생태적 공간의 확보, 이동 보조 및 남북을 이어주는 수평 및 저지대와 고지대를 이어주는 수직적 생태네트웍이 기후변화에 따른 생물다양성의 적응을 돕는 대안으로 추천될 수 있다.

  • The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70$\pm$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32$\pm$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500, 550, 570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500, 550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100, 300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs.

We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N.

And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique.

Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3, 000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec. Experimental results or human nerve stimulations using the developed stimulator are presented. 30768 T00401030768 ^x In this paper, we describe the design methodology and specifications of the developed module-based bedside monitors for patient monitoring. The bedside monitor consists of a main unit and module cases with various parameter modules. The main unit includes a 12.1" TFT color LCD, a main CPU board, and peripherals such as a module controller, Ethernet LAN card, video card, rotate/push button controller, etc. The main unit can connect at maximum three module cases each of which can accommodate up to 7 parameter modules. They include the modules for electrocardiograph, respiration, invasive blood pressure, noninvasive blood pressure, temperature, and SpO2 with Plethysmograph.SpO2 with Plethysmograph.

  • The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70${\pm}$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32${\pm}$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers.

A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed.

The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3,000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec. Experimental results or human nerve stimulations using the developed stimulator are presented. 30768 T00401030768 ^x In this paper, we describe the design methodology and specifications of the developed module-based bedside monitors for patient monitoring. The bedside monitor consists of a main unit and module cases with various parameter modules. The main unit includes a 12.1" TFT color LCD, a main CPU board, and peripherals such as a module controller, Ethernet LAN card, video card, rotate/push button controller, etc. The main unit can connect at maximum three module cases each of which can accommodate up to 7 parameter modules. They include the modules for electrocardiograph, respiration, invasive blood pressure, noninvasive blood pressure, temperature, and SpO2 with Plethysmograph.

  • 수도 단간품종 육성을 위한 자료를 얻고자 Japonica 단간인 단간백망, Indica 단간인 T(N)1 그리고 Japonica$\times$Indica의 단간고정계통인 IE51의 3개품종을 단간친으로 하고 우리나라 품종인 진흥, 관옥, 및 팔굉을 모본으로 하는 관옥$\times$단간백망, 팔굉$\times$단간백망, 진흥$\times$T(N)1, 관옥$\times$T(N)1 및 관옥$\times$IE51의 5개조합의 $\textrm{F}_2$를 재배시기, 질소시용수준, 재식밀도 및 재배지를 달리한 여러 가지 환경조건하에 공시하여 간장 및 이에 관련된 형질의 유전양상과 생태적 변이를 추구하는 한편 관옥$\times$T(N)1, 진흥$\times$T(N)1 및 관옥$\times$IE51의 3개조합에 대하여는 전 공시개체수의 10%의 단간개체를 선발하여 $\textrm{F}_2$에서의 간장에 대한 선발효과를 검정하였다. 이를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 유전분리 가. Japonica 단간인 단간백망은 관옥 또는 팔굉과 교잡한 $\textrm{F}_2$에서 장간 : 단간이 3:1의 분리비를 나타내었다. 따라서 단간백망의 간장은 단순열성유전인자에 비하여 지배되었음을 알 수 있었다. 나. 상기 두 조합의 $\textrm{F}_2$의 수장분리에 있어서도 장수 : 단수의 분리비는 3:1로 나타났으므로 간장지배인자가 수장 표현에도 크게 관여하는 것으로 판단되었다. 다. 초장의 경우에 있어서도 간장의 분리양상과 대동소이하였다. 라. Indica의 Semi-dwarf인 T(N)1은 진흥 또는 관옥과 교잡한 $\textrm{F}_2$에서 3:1의 단순한 간장분리를 하지 않고 연속적인 정규분포양상을 나타내는 것으로 보아 상대품종들은 T(N)1의 단간인자의 대립유전자를 가지고 있지 않는 것으로 추정된다. 특히 진흥과 교잡한 $\textrm{F}_2$의 간장분리에서는 장간방향으로 초월분리현상을 나타내었다. 수장과 초장의 분리양상은 역시 간장의 경우와 유사하였다. 마. IE51은 관옥과 교잡하였을 때 간장, 수장 및 초장의 $\textrm{F}_2$분리양상이 T(N)1의 그것과 동일하였으므로 IE51의 단간인자는 곧 T(N)1으로부터 도입된 것임을 알 수 있었다. 2. 생태적 변이 가. 일반적으로 재배시기가 늦어짐에 따라 간장 및 초장의 감소를 보였으나 수장의 변이는 비교적 적었으며 그 감소정도는 품종 또는 조합에 따라 다소 달랐다. 그러나 이들 형질의 유전분리양상은 재배시기의 영향을 거의 받지 않음을 알 수 있었다. 나. 제 3절간까지의 절간장은 대체로 간장의 분리양상과 비슷하였다. 따라서 간장의 표현은 제 3절간장까지의 역할이 비교적 중요하다고 생각된다. 다. 질소시용량의 차이가 간장 및 관련형질에 미치는 영향은 비교적 적었다. 물론 질소증시에 따라 이들 형질이 증대되는 경향은 있었으나 품종 또는 그 조합특성에 따라 그 정도가 달랐다. 라. 재식밀도를 달리할 경우 간장 및 관련형질에 미치는 영향은 적은 편 이었으며 품종과 조합에 따라 그 변이정도가 달랐다. 그러나 밀식구에서 이들 형질이 다소 증대되는 경향은 인정할 수 있었다. 마. 교배친품종들의 간장, 수장 및 초장은 저위도지방에서 재배할수록 짧아졌는데 이는 감온성반응때문인 것으로 추측되었으며 $\textrm{F}_2$ 잡종에서는 어느 조합이든 남부인 밀양에서 가장 길었는데 이는 분리된 만생화개체의 고온에 의한 생육조장에 영향한 것으로 추측되었다. 3. 선발효과 가. 간장의 유전력은 관옥$\times$T(N)1에서 92%, 진흥$\times$T(N)1에서 55% 그리고 관옥$\times$IE51에서 74%로서 조합에 따라 다르나 상당히 높은 편이었다. 나. $\textrm{F}_2$전공시개체중에서 단간쪽의 10% 개체를 선발하여 G$_3$시험에서 얻은 실제적인 간장단축량은 관옥$\times$T(N)1조합에서 20.8cm, 관옥$\times$IE51조합에서 8.7cm 그리고 진흥$\times$T(N)1조합에서 20.0cm로서 기대치에 비교적 가까운 선발효과를 얻을 수 있었다. 다. 간장의 선발이 수장에 미치는 영향은 조합에 따라 상이하였으나 관옥$\times$T(N)1조합에서는 $\textrm{F}_2$모집단에 비하여 수장의 단축을 거의 인정할 수 없었다. 이상의 결과로 보아 간장, 수장 및 초장의 생태적 변이는 비교적적은 편으로 유전적 분리 범위내에 국한되었으며 단간백망의 간장 표현에 관여하는 단순열성인자는 단수 및 소립등의 불량형질을 동반하므로서 실용가치가 없는 반면에 T(N)1의 단간인자는 이러한 불량형질과 연쇄되지 않는 장점을 가졌으므로 단간모본으로서의 활용도가 높은 것으로 인정되었다.
