Two feeding trials were conducted with 128 pullets from 4 to 20 weeks of age and 96 laying hens from 23 to 63 weeks of age to evaluate the effects of scavenging and type of protein supplement on the feed intake and performance of improved pullets and laying hens. The experiments had a completely randomized design with four dietary treatments and four replicates. Treatments were: Control (Cont), scavenging but with access to a balanced concentrate at night; confinement (CF) and given the control feed ad libitum; scavenging and supplemented at night with the control feed, but with soybean meal replaced by cassava leaf meal (CLM); scavenging and supplemented at night with the control feed, but with fishmeal replaced y soybean meal (SBM). The mean daily dry matter (DMI), metabolizable energy (MEI) and crude protein intakes (CPI) of the pullets and laying hens, respectively, were 28%, and 18% higher for the confinement treatment (CF) compared to the scavenging treatments (p<0.001). The DMI, MEI and CPI of the pullets were not significantly different among scavenging treatments (p>0.05), but for the layers DMI, MEI and CPI were significantly higher for the CLM and SBM treatments compared to the Cont treatment (p<0.001). In the growing period, the average daily weight gain (ADG), supplement feed conversion ratio (FCR) and supplement feed cost/kg eggs (FCS) were not significantly different for CF compared to Cont, and among scavenging treatments (p>0.05). In the laying period, the hen-day production was significantly lower, and supplement FCR and FCS significantly higher for the CF compared to the scavenging treatments (p<0.001). Egg weight, and yolk, albumen and shell percentage and shape index were not significantly different among the scavenging treatments (p>0.05). However, shell and yolk percentages were significantly lower for the CF compared to the Cont treatment (p<0.01). Mortality was significantly higher for the CF compared to the scavenging treatments for pullets, and was significantly lower for the CF compared to scavenging treatments for laying hens (p<0.001). It was concluded that scavenging pullets and layers were getting around 28% and 18%, respectively, of their nutrient requirements from scavenging activities, resulting in correspondingly lower supplement feed conversion ratios and feed costs. Daily gains of the pullets were not affected by scavenging or protein supplement, but egg production and mortality were lower for the confined hens.

최근 모바일 기술의 발달 및 소셜 네트워크 서비스의 활성화를 통해 사용자 데이터가 급격히 증대되고 있다. 이에 따라 대용량 데이터에 대한 효율적인 데이터 분석 기법에 대한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 대표적인 대용량 데이터 분석 기법으로는 맵리듀스 환경에서 보로노이 다이어그램을 이용한 k 최근접점 조인(VkNN-join) 알고리즘이 존재한다. 데이터집합 R, S에 대해, VkNN-join 알고리즘은 부분집합 Ri에 연관된 부분집합 Sj만을 후보탐색 영역으로 선정하여 질의처리를 수행하기 때문에, 대용량 데이터에 대한 join 질의처리 시간을 감소시키는 장점이 존재한다. 그러나 VkNN-join은 보로노이 다이어그램을 사용하기 때문에, 색인 구축 비용이 높은 단점이 존재한다. 아울러 kNN 질의처리를 위한 후보 영역 선정 시 k값에 비례하여 후보영역의 크기가 증가하기 때문에, kNN 연산 오버헤드가 증가하는 문제점이 존재한다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 대용량 데이터 분석을 위한 맵리듀스 기반 kNN join 질의처리 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안하는 질의처리 알고리즘은 시드 기반의 동적 분할을 통해 색인구조 구축비용을 절감한다. 또한 시드 간 평균 거리를 기반으로 질의 처리 후보 영역을 선정함으로써, kNN-join 질의를 위한 연산 오버헤드를 감소시킨다. 아울러, 성능 평가를 통해 제안하는 기법이 질의처리 시간 측면에서 기존 기법에 비해 우수함을 보인다.

인터넷 상에서 정보 표현 및 교환의 표준으로 XML이 대두되면서 데이타베이스 연구 분야에서는 XML 질의 처리에 대한 중요성이 커지고 있다. 그리고 과거 몇 년간 빠른 XML 질의 처리를 위해 XISS, XR-트리와 같은 구조적 XML 질의 처리 기법이 제안되었다. 하지만 구조적 XML 질의 처리는 가지 경로 질의 처리를 위해 많은 조인 비용이 요구되는 문제를 가지고 있다. 최근에는 구조적 XML 질의 처리 기법의 조인 문제를 해결하기 위해 ViST와 PRIX와 같은 시퀀스 매칭 기반의 XML 질의 처리 기법이 제안되었다. 시퀀스 매칭 기반의 XML 질의 처리 기법은 가지 경로 질의를 다수의 부질의로 분리하지 않고 질의 시퀀스가 문서 내에 포함되는지만 비교하기 때문에 조인 비용이 요구되지 않는 장점을 가지고 있다. 하지만 ViST는 최적화되지 못한 번호부여 기법을 사용함으로써 질의 처리 시 구조 관계를 정확하게 판단하지 못하고, PRIX는 질의와 문서의 NPS와 LPS를 비교하는데 많은 비용이 요구된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 XML 질의 처리 성능 향상을 위해 상향식 질의 처리를 사용하는 효율적인 시퀀스 매칭 기법을 제안한다. 또한 본 논문의 성능 평가에서는 제안하는 기법을 ViST PRIX와 비교하여 제안하는 기법이 와일드-카드('*'와 '//')를 포함하는 선형 경로 질의뿐만 아니라 가지 경로 질의 처리에 대해 향상된 성능을 나타냄을 보인다.

Purpose: It is unclear whether adding concurrent chemotherapy (CT) to definitive radiotherapy (RT) following induction CT is a tolerable and cost effective treatment for non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients aged 70 years or older with comorbidities. This study evaluated the actual clinical outcomes between concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) and RT alone following induction CT or not in patients (≥70 years) in a single institution's clinical practice. Materials and Methods: A total of 82 patients with unresectable stage III NSCLC between 2004 and 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. Their treatment tolerance and clinical outcomes such as overall survival (OS), locoregional recurrence (LRR), treatment toxicities and distant metastasis (DM) were evaluated. Early mortality rates were also evaluated as 4-month mortality after RT. Results: Fifty-four patients received CCRT and 28 patients received RT alone. Induction CT before RT was performed for 68.5% and 50.0% in CCRT and RT alone groups. Treatment tolerance was significantly worse in CCRT (p = 0.046). The median survival was 21.1 and 18.1 months for CCRT and RT alone, which was not statistically significant. LRR and DM were also not different. Most early deaths after CCRT were attributed to non-cancer-related mortality. Acute esophagitis of grade ≥2 occurred more following CCRT (p = 0.017). In multivariate analysis, a Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) of ≥5 and a weight loss of ≥5% after RT were associated with poor OS. The factors adversely affecting 4-month survival were a CCI of ≥5 and CCRT. Conclusion: There were no significant differences in OS, LRR, and DM between CCRT and RT alone treatment in elderly patients. However, there was a poorer tolerance and higher incidence of acute esophagitis in the CCRT group. Specifically, when the patients had a CCI of ≥5, RT alone seems to be reasonable with a low probability of early death.

Background We conducted this study to identify factors that may prolong the length of the hospital stay (LHS) in patients with diabetic foot (DF) in a single-institution setting. Methods In this single-center retrospective study, we evaluated a total of 164 patients with DF, and conducted an intergroup comparison of their baseline demographic and clinical characteristics, including sex, age, duration of diabetes, smoking status, body mass index, underlying comorbidities (e.g., hypertension or diabetic nephropathy), wound characteristics, type of surgery, the total medical cost, white blood cell (WBC) count, C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and albumin, protein, glycated hemoglobin, and 7-day mean blood glucose (BG) levels. Results Pearson correlation analysis showed that an LHS of >5 weeks had a significant positive correlation with the severity of the wound (r=0.647), WBC count (r=0.571), CRP levels (r=0.390), DN (r=0.020), and 7-day mean BG levels (r=0.120) (P<0.05). In multiple regression analysis, an LHS of >5 weeks had a significant positive correlation with the severity of the wound (odds ratio [OR]=3.297; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.324-10.483; P=0.020), WBC count (OR=1.423; 95% CI, 0.046.0-356; P=0.000), CRP levels (OR=1.079; 95% CI, 1.015-1.147; P=0.014), albumin levels (OR=0.263; 95% CI, 0.113.3-673; P=0.007), and 7-day mean BG levels (OR=1.018; 95% CI, 1.001-1.035; P=0.020). Conclusions Surgeons should consider the factors associated with a prolonged LHS in the early management of patients with DF. Moreover, this should also be accompanied by a multidisciplinary approach to reducing the LHS.

Pulmonary embolism demands rapid and accurate diagnosis. And ventilation imaging has greatly improved the diagnostic accuracy of pulmonary embolism in addition to perfusion imaging. Agents currently used include xenon-133, krypton-81m and technetium-99m radioaerosols. However radioactive gases are compromised by availability and cost for krypton-81m, radiation dose, gamma energy and non?physiologic behaviour for xenon-133. Radioaerosols of technetium-99m componds are rapidly cleared from the lung after inhalation, and their relative low effeciency (specific radioactivity) and wide distribution of particle sizes make them also suboptimum. A new ventilation agent, Technegas is a suspension of structured graphite ellipsoids with diameter below 20nm, labelled with $^{99m}Tc$ in a carrier gas of Argon. This report describes the authors' clinical experience with Technegas. This is the first reported clinical study of this agent in Korea. A comparison of Technegas and $^{99m}Tc-DTPA$ aerosol was performed in 12 patients with various pulmonary diseases such as COPD, pulmonary tuberculosis and pleural effusion. All patients were studied with $^{99m}Tc-DTPA$ aerosol inhalation and Technegas ventilation. In both studies image quality was assessed (1) semiquantitatively by scoring bronchial and gastric activity, (2) subjectively by direct visual comparison of peripheral lung images and (3) quantitatively by computing the peripheral penetration index(PI) for each lungs. The bronchial activites were seen in 7 out of 12 cases with $^{99m}Tc-DTPA$ aerosol and in 5/12 with Technegas. The gastric activities were seen in 5/12 and 1/12 cases respectively. The average values of PI were 61.26% with $^{99m}Tc-DTPA$ aerosol and 69.20% with Technegas (p>0.05). Using $^{99m}Tc-DTPA$ aerosol, COPD patients showed deposition in the central airways with poor visualization of the peripheral areas of the lungs. In Technegas studies these phenomena were less prominent, and the examination is well tolerated by pateients and requires only a minimum of patient cooperation. With superiority of easy availability and handling, better physical characteristics and favorable Image quality, Technegas is a Promising agent for lung ventilation scanning.

Recently, the construction of U-City or of U-City service (U-service) in many kinds of urban development projects becomes the general trend. However, as the construction of U-city comes into the spotlight like the trend of the times, various service constructions are being indiscreetly implemented since it's processed focusing on local specialized projects or local landmark project by a local autonomous entity or an institute in charge being off the original purpose of the improvement of living quality of residents and the efficiency of urban management, which causes a number of problems on the process, maintenance, operation and management of those projects. Therefore, this study is to derive the standard pattern of U-service construction through the analysis of patterns and numbers of U-service and problems during the process of construction in domestic U-City construction case district, and is aimed to suggest the reasonable direction of service construction based on this. 11 projects areas in which data related to U-service are available among U-City construction project areas were selected for the subjects of this study, and it's standardized with 228 detailed unit services that were suggested by U-Eco City R&D and with 11 service domains that are regulated in "the Act of ubiquitous city construction etc.", and it is limited to services that were suggested in U-City case area of which design was completed by July, 2010 based on this. The actual state of various U-service construction is analyzed through case studies as well as reviews on the legal and theoretical concept and the method of pattern classification of U-service, the plan for the standardization (pattern classification) of U-service and the plan for the construction body of service and to share the costs are suggested as the plan to construct reasonable U-service based on this for the method and the procedure of this study For the method to construct U-service, the plan to classify the pattern of U-service into the basic service and additional service is suggested, and whether it has the publicity, whether urban infrastructure is included, whether utilities are included, the body of realization, the recipients, the urgency, the importance and the spreading, etc. are suggested for the index to determine the pattern of service. The method to get the executor of a project to construct the basic service, the method to get the executor of a project to construct the most basic service among the group classification of service and to get a private entity and a local autonomous entity to perform additional service in the future, and the method to construct the whole service and to distribute the construction costs were suggested, and the first one that determines the body of construction after dividing U-service into the basic service and the additional service was evaluated to be the most reasonable one. And the plan to solve the problem that the excessive construction costs of U-service are shifted onto the executor of a project through benefit principle, balanced distribution principle and consultation and mediation between the interested parties was suggested for the criteria to share the costs.

서식지 연결성을 정량적으로 평가하고 지도화하는 것은 지속가능한 도시 계획과 설계 과정에 있어 필수적이다. 이 연구에서는 그래프 이론을 적용하여 서울 을 포함하는 수도권 지역을 대상으로 산림성 조류의 이동 통로들이 서식지들을 어떻게 연결 하는지 알아보고자 하였다. 산림 피복율과 인간 간섭을 의미하는 거주지역, 도로 네트워크의 영향을 고려하여 양질의 산림 서식지를 추출하였다. ArcGIS 파이썬 패키지 FunConn을 활용하여 서식지 연결망을 구축하고, 서식지 간 최소비용거리($Q_1$)와 25번째 백분위수 비용거리($Q_{25}$)에서의 조각 중요도를 산출하였다. 10개 지역에서 조사된 산림성 조류 종의 풍부도와 $Q_1$과 $Q_{25}$ 비용거리에 따른 조각 중요도 값, 서식지 면적 간 스피어만 상관분석을 하였다. 서식지 면적의 효과를 통제했을 때, $Q_{25}$에서의 조각의 중요도 값이 종 풍부도와 가장 높은 양의 상관관계를 나타냈다(P<0.001). 따라서 25번째 백분위수 비용거리를 통해 연결성 유지에 중요한 역할을 하는 조각들과 통로의 위치, 연결망의 중추적 경로를 도출하였다. 연구에서 제시된 연결망은 향후 도시 생물다양성 보호와 증진을 위한 핵심 보전지역의 설정과 생태통로의 조성과 관리에 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
