오늘날 치열한 경쟁과 환경변화로 인해 많은 기업들은 고객관계관리(Customer Relationship Management, 이하 CRM)를 경영혁신의 도구로 인식하고 많은 투자 및 노력을 기울이고 있다. CRM 시스템의 개선 및 전략적 보완을 위한 지속적 노력과 더불어 이에 대한 이론적 연구가 활발하게 실시되었지만, 시스템 도입이 기업성과에 미치는 영향에 대한 실증연구는 포괄적으로 다루어지지 않았다. 최근 국내 금융업, 호텔, 항공 등의 분야에서 고객관계관리 도입으로 인한 기업성과에 대한 실증연구가 실시되었고, 외국에서는 병원관리학을 중심으로 균형성과표의 활용에 대한 연구가 실시되었지만, 국내 제약산업에 대해서는 이러한 연구들이 매우 부족한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 제약회사 고객관리 시스템의 수준이 Kaplan and Norton에 의해 제안된 균형성과표의 이론적 틀에 따라 기업성과에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 연구해 보고자 하였다. 실증분석결과, CRM 시스템 수준은 기업성과에 유의적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 시스템이 제공하는 유용한 분석자료들이 고객유지, 고객만족 및 고객수익성 개선에 유의적인 영향을 주어 결과적으로 기업의 수익성, 성장성 및 주주가치 증대에 폭 넓게 기여하며, 효율적 내부 프로세스로 뒷받침되는 바람직한 선순환구조를 제시하고 있다고 생각된다. 그러나 세부분석결과, 영업사원실적평가 시스템은 단기수익성 증대에만 유의적 영향을 주었고, 고객 분석시스템은 기업성과에 미치는 유의성이 없는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 제약회사 구성원들의 전통적 업무방식 고수, 단기목표 지향성 및 장기적 기업성과지표에 대한 인식 부족에서 기인한다고 생각된다. 연구결과, 제약기업에 보다 적합한 CRM 시스템의 개발과 보완, 인식률과 활용도 제고의 필요성이 제안되며, 표본 확대 및 대표성 개선을 통해 보다 의미 있는 연구결과가 제시될 수 있을 것이다.

Purpose : To assess the methods for the clinical evaluation of the longitudinal bone changes after implantation of tooth ash-plaster mixture into the defect area of human jaws. Materials and methods : Tooth ash-plaster mixtures were implanted into the defects of 8 human jaws. 48 intraoral radiograms taken with copper step wedge as reference at soon, 1st, 2nd, 4th, and 6th week after implantation of mixture were used. X-ray taking was standardized by using Rinn XCP device customized directly to the individual dentition with resin bite block. The images inputted by Quick scanner were digitized and analyzed by NIH image program. Cu­equivalent values were measured at the implanted sites from the periodic digital images. Analysis was performed by the bidirectional subtraction with color enhancement and the surface plot of resliced contiguous image. The obtained results by the two methods were compared with Cu­equivalent value changes. Results : The average determination coefficient of Cu-equivalent equations was 0.9988 and the coefficient of variation of measured Cu values ranged from 0.08~0.10. The coefficient of variation of Cu-equivalent values measured at the areas of the mixture and the bone by the conversion equation ranged from 0.06 ~0.09. The analyzed results by the bidirectional subtraction with color enhancement were coincident with the changes of Cu-equivalent values. The surface plot of the resliced contiguous image showed the three dimensional view of the longitudinal bone changes on one image and also coincident with Cu-equivalent value changes after implantation. Conclusion : The bidirectional subtraction with color enhancement and the surface plot of the resliced contiguous image was very effective and reasonable to analyze clinically and qualitatively the longitudinal bone change. These methods are expected to be applicable to the non-destructive test in other fields.

Tibial bone grafts provide an adequate volume of cancellous bone with cortical bone, high biologic value of bone, minimal gait disturbance and complications, and no special contraindications, and offer a superior clinical results than any other donor sites. Lateral appoach in tibial bone graft was used to gain large bone volume traditionally, but medial approach provides low morbidity associated with the tibial anatomic structure, simple and safety surgical procedure, and better comfortable to patients recently. We have undertaken clinical and retrospective studies on patients in Dept. of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Inha University Hospital from April 2004 to January 2008. 50 patients have maxillofacial bony defect as resection of bening tumor, cyst enucleation, alveolar bone resorption, sinus pneumatization were received the tibial proximal autogenous particulated cancellous bone grafts. They were analyzed sex, age, diagnosis of recipient site, lesion size, dornor site, cortical bone repositioning, complications and we concluded favorable following results. 1. Medial approach for proximal tibia is safer and technically easier than lateral approach, associated with the proximal tibial anatomic structures, and short operative times. 2. Proximal tibia provides an adequate bone volume with predictability for oral and maxillofacial reconstruction. 3. Patients rarely complain of pain, swelling, discomfort and dysfunction such as gait disturbance. In conclusion, medial approach for proximal tibial graft seems to be a valuable tool for oral and maxillofacial reconstruction.

Purpose: The present study was performed to evaluate the effect of surface treatment of the cervical area of implant on bone regeneration in fresh extraction socket following implant installation. Materials and methods: The four minipigs, 18 months old and 30 kg weighted, were used. Four premolars of the left side of both the mandible and maxilla were extracted. ${\phi}$3.3 mm and 11.5 mm long US II plus implants (Osstem Implant co., Korea) with resorbable blasting media (RBM) treated surface and US II implants (Osstem Implant co., Korea) with machined surface at the top and RBM surface at lower portion were installed in the socket. Stability of the implant was measured with $Osstell^{TM}$ (Model 6 Resonance Frequency Analyser: Integration Diagnostics Ltd., Sweden). After 2 months of healing, the procedures and measurement of implant stability were repeated in the right side by same method of left side. At four months after first experiment, the animals were sacrificed after measurement of stability of all implants, and biopsies were obtained. Results: Well healed soft tissue and no mobility of the implants were observed in both groups. Histologically satisfactory osseointegration of implants was observed with RBM surface, and no foreign body reaction as well as inflammatory infiltration around implant were found. Furthermore, substantial bone formation and high degree of osseointegration were exhibited at the marginal defects around the cervical area of US II plus implants. However, healing of US II implants was characterized by the incomplete bone substitution and the presence of the connective tissue zone between the implant and newly formed bone. The distance between the implant platform (P) and the most coronal level of bone-to-implant contact (B) after 2 months of healing was $2.66{\pm}0.11$ mm at US II implants group and $1.80{\pm}0.13$mm at US II plus implant group. The P-B distance after 4 months of healing was $2.29{\pm}0.13$mm at US II implants group and $1.25{\pm}0.10$mm at US II plus implants group. The difference between both groups regarding the length of P-B distance was statistically significant(p<0.05). Concerning the resonance frequency analysis (RFA) value, the stability of US II plus implants group showed relatively higher RFA value than US II implants group. Conclusion: The current results suggest that implants with rough surface at the cervical area have an advantage in process of bone regeneration on defect around implant placed in a fresh extraction socket.

Recently, the growing interest in organic microelectronic devices including OLEDs has led to an increasing amount of research into their many potential applications in the area of flexible electronic devices based on plastic substrates. However, these organic devices require a gas barrier coating to prevent the permeation of water and oxygen because organic materials are highly susceptible to water and oxygen. In particular, high efficiency OLEDs require an extremely low Water Vapor Transition Rate (WVTR) of $1{\times}10^{-6}g/m^2$/day. The Key factor in high quality inorganic gas barrier formation for achieving the very low WVTR required ($1{\times}10^{-6}g/m^2$/day) is the suppression of defect sites and gas diffusion pathways between grain boundaries. In this study, we developed an $Al_2O_3$ nano-crystal structure single gas barrier layer using a Neutral Beam Assisted Sputtering (NBAS) process. The NBAS system is based on the conventional RF magnetron sputtering and neutral beam source. The neutral beam source consists of an electron cyclotron Resonance (ECR) plasma source and metal reflector. The Ar+ ions in the ECR plasma are accelerated in the plasma sheath between the plasma and reflector, which are then neutralized by Auger neutralization. The neutral beam energies were possible to estimate indirectly through previous experiments and binary collision model. The accelerating potential is the sum of the plasma potential and reflector bias. In previous experiments, while adjusting the reflector bias, changes in the plasma density and the plasma potential were not observed. The neutral beam energy is controlled by the metal reflector bias. The NBAS process can continuously change crystalline structures from an amorphous phase to nano-crystal phase of various grain sizes within a single inorganic thin film. These NBAS process effects can lead to the formation of a nano-crystal structure barrier layer which effectively limits gas diffusion through the pathways between grain boundaries. Our results verify the nano-crystal structure of the NBAS processed $Al_2O_3$ single gas barrier layer through dielectric constant measurement, break down field measurement, and TEM analysis. Finally, the WVTR of $Al_2O_3$ nano-crystal structure single gas barrier layer was measured to be under $5{\times}10^{-6}g/m^2$/day therefore we can confirm that NBAS processed $Al_2O_3$ nano-crystal structure single gas barrier layer is suitable for OLED application.

대부분의 철강산업 기계 등에 설치되어 사용되는 선회베어링은 교체를 위한 정확한 정비계획이 필요하기 때문에 저속회전체의 선회베어링에 대한 진동 상태감시가 매우 중요하게 되었다. 지금까지 음향방출(AE)법이 저속베어링의 상태감시에 가장 많이 사용되는 기술이고 몇몇의 경우는 진동을 사용한다. 음향방출을 사용하는 일반적인 이유는 저속에서 구름요소와 결함위치 사이의 충격에 의하여 발생되는 신호가 약하고 때때로 노이즈나 다른 간섭 주파수에 결함신호가 묻혀 검출이 어렵기 때문이다. 따라서 쉽게 특정 결함에 대한 결함주파수의 동정을 위하여 몇몇 연구자들은 충격에너지를 증가시키기 위하여 인위적으로 미리 정해진 길이, 넓이와 깊이의 결함을 베어링의 내, 외부 레이스에 인가하기도 한다. 이 논문에서는 15 rpm에서 운전하는 저속 선회베어링의 진동신호에 EMD와 EEMD를 적용하였고 논문에서 사용한 진동결함 신호는 국내 산업체에서 공급받은 것이다. 이 논문에서는 베어링결함 주파수 동정을 위하여 EEMD를 사용하여 결함신호의 FFT처리 결과를 입증하고 설명하였다.
