Histological studies indicate a tetracycline HCl similar to citric acid to induce connetive tissue repair in animals. When tetracycline HCl was used as a root conditioning agent in humans, there was a trend toward more connective tissue attachment than in root planing alone. The purpose of this study was to evaluate clinical effect of tetracycline HCl in the treatment of gingival recession. 44 teeth in 12 patients with bilaterally gingival recession & Miller classification I, II gingival recession were selected and 22 teeth were treated with 125mg/ml tetracycline HCl , the others was not treated with tetracycline HCl. Gingival recession, pocket depth, clinical attachment level, width of keratinized gingiva were observed at baseline, postoperative 4, 12, 20weeks. Both groups were statistically analyzed by Wilcoxon signed Ranks Test & Wilcoxon's rank sum test(Mann-whitney test) using SPSS program.(5% significance level) The results were as follows: 1........The change of gingival recession, clinical attachment level, keratinized gingiva in both groups were increased significantly at 4, 12, 20 weeks. 2.......The pocket depth exhibited no marked changes throughout the entire investigation in both groups. 3........The change of gingival recession in tetracycline group was increased significantly than control group at 4, 12, 20 weeks and the percentage of root coverage was 93% in tetracycline group and 83% in control group. 4........The change of clinical attachment level, pocket depth, keratinized tissue from baseline to 4, 12, 20 weeks was not differ significanltly in both group.

고효율 영상 부호화 기술인 high efficiency video coding (HEVC)은 부호화 효율을 높이기 위하여 coding tree unit (CTU)을 사용한다. CTU는 coding unit (CU), prediction unit (PU), transform unit (TU)으로 구성되며 모든 가능한 경우의 CU, PU, TU 분할연산을 통해 최적의 분할 조합을 찾아내게 된다. 블록 분할 연산의 복잡도를 감소시키기 위하여 본 논문은 움직임 벡터에 의한 관심 영역 CTU 추출에 근거하는 PU 분할 결정 방법과 이전에 부호화된 프레임의 같은 위치의 CTU 정보를 사용하는 CU 깊이 결정 분할 알고리즘을 제안한다. 첫 번째 방법은 프레임 중 움직임이 많은 동적 CTU 부분과 움직임이 적은 정적 CTU 부분으로 나누어 정적인 영역에 대해 PU 분할 연산을 감소시키는 방법이며, 두 번째 방법은 이전 프레임의 CTU 깊이 정보를 기반으로 현재 CTU의 분할 깊이를 미리 예측하여 CU 분할 연산을 감소시킨다. 결과적으로 제안하는 알고리즘은 HEVC test model (HM) 14.0 버전 대비 BDBR 손실은 2.5% 발생했지만, 전체 부호화 시간이 약 44.8%로 크게 감소했다.

The ultimate goal of periodontal therapy is the regeneration of periodontal tissue which has been lost due to destructive periodontal disease. Various periodontal procedures have been used throughout the years in an attempt to reestablish attachment of periodontal tissues to root surfaces affected by periodontitis. Flap debridement surgery has been demonstrated to be a successful procedure in gaining the probing attachment level and reducing probing depth. A tendency towards impaired wound healing following periodontal procedures in smokers has been clinically documented. But, previous clinical studies on healing response in smokers are based on a retrospective design. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the treatment outcome following flap debridement surgery in smokers compared to nonsmokers. 25 patients with moderate to advanced periodontitis were included for study. Among these patients, 13 patients were smokers, and 12 patients were nonsmokers. Mucoperiosteal flap was raised with the sulcular incision. No antibiotic treatment was administered postsurgery. The patients was recalled at monthly intervals during a period of 6 months following the surgery. The patients were received supragingival scaling and oral hygiene reinforcement. All the recordings, including modified O' Leary plaque control record, bleeding on probing, probing pocket depth, probing attachment level,were recorded, presurgery and 6 months postsurgery. The changes of all the recordings at 6 months after flap debridement surgery revealed the following results: 1. PI on all the dentitions and surgical sites showed no statistical significance between smokers and nonsmokers at presurgery. But, smokers demonstrated a significantly lower % of PI than nonsmokers at 6 months postsurgery. 2. Smokers demonstrated a greater % of BOP sites than nonsmokers on the surgical sites and all the dentitions, presurgery and 6 months postsurgery. But, there was no statistical significance between two groups. 3. Smokers exhibited significantly less reduction of probing depth in the 3 mm or less probing pocket depth(PPD) group, 6mm or more PPD group and total PPD group when compared to nonsmokers at 6 months postsurgery. 4. Smokers exhibited significantly less gain of probing attachment level(PAL) in the 3mm or less PPD group, 6 mm or more PPD group and total PPD group when compared to nonsmokers at 6 months postsurgery.

지하수위와 하천수위와의 상호반응과 수리적으로 다른 특성을 가지는 각 층별(실트질 모래층, 자갈모래층, 풍화대층) 반응관계를 알아보기 위하여 시계열 분석에서 많이 사용되어 온 방법인 자기상관분석과 교차상관분석방법을 이용하였다. 만경강 하천부지에 각 층을 대표하는 깊이에서 지하수위를 관측한 결과, 지하수위가 강수량보다는 하천수위변동에 민감하게 반응하고 있었다. 연구지역의 하천수위변동은 만경강 제수문의 조절과 조석의 영향을 받아 주기적인 수위변동이 우세하기 때문에 강수량과의 상관성은 낮다. 다심도 관정에서 각층별 하천수위에 대한 지하수위 반응은 시간지연 없이 서로 같이 변동하는 것으로 나타났으며, 반응시간은 하천과 가까운 관정에서 30-60분 이내로 빠르며 하천에서 거리가 멀어지면서 반응시간은 대체로 늦게 나타났다. 그러나 하천과 멀리 떨어져 있는 관정이더라도 하천수위에 대하여 빠른 반응을 보이는 관정이 있으며, 이는 하천과 대수층과의 높은 수리적 연결성을 나타낸다. 지하수위의 하천에 대한 반응양상이 다르게 나타나는 것은 대수층의 수리적 불균질성에 의한 것으로 사료된다. 연구지역의 하천은 대체로 지하수위가 하천수위보다 높게 관측되고 있기 때문에 지하수가 하천으로 유출되는 이득하천의 성격을 가지고 있다고 판단되나, 하천의 급격한 수위상승에 따라 역으로 하천의 물이 지하수로 공급되는 손실하천의 성격도 보여주었다. 하천수위와 대수층이 연결된 시스템에서 시계열분석으로서의 자기 및 교차상관분석은 수리적 상호관계를 파악하기 위한 유용한 도구로 활용될 수 있다.

본 논문은 깊이 카메라(Creative Senz3D)를 이용하여 호흡률을 측정하는 것에 대한 정확도와 영향을 미치는 요인들을 분석하였다. 영향 요인 분석에서는 깊이 카메라가 가지는 깊이 값에 대한 오차와 노이즈 그리고 주위 조도의 영향에 대하여 실험 연구를 진행하였다. 그 결과 깊이 카메라와 측정 대상의 거리가 증가함에 따라 깊이 값의 오차가 증가하였고 깊이 영상의 오른쪽은 실제 거리보다 깊이 값이 크게 측정되고 왼쪽은 실제 거리보다 깊이 값이 작게 측정되었다. 이에 따라 깊이 값이 영상의 영역에 따라 비대칭성을 가지고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 깊이 카메라와 측정 대상의 각도가 틀어짐에 따라서도 깊이 값의 차의 오차가 증가하였으며 깊이 카메라의 노이즈는 측정 거리가 멀어짐에 따라 점점 증가하였고 노이즈를 측정하는 윈도우의 크기가 증가함에 따라 감소하였다. 주위 조도는 깊이 값에 영향을 주지 않았다. 또한 실제 상황에서 사람을 대상으로 20회 호흡을 하게 하여 깊이 카메라를 이용해 호흡률을 측정하였고 호흡률이 제대로 측정됨을 확인하였다.

WTO Government Procurement Agreement (GPA) was designed to liberalize and expand trade in government procurement. Revised GPA was implemented in 1996 and the latest revision was completed (but not yet implemented) in 2012, but as a plurilateral agreement. Since the end of the UR, there has been attempts by various WTO members to liberalize trade in the government procurement market - through an expansion of Parties who are signatories to GPA, and through a negotiated agreement on transparency in government procurement. The attempt to expand the Parties who are signatories to the GPA - attempt to increase the width of the coverage of the agreement - has been somewhat successful, but I argue that the goal should be to further liberate the government procurement markets of the current Party members - to reduce thresholds and other barriers which limit market access even to other GPA members, in other words, to increase the depth of coverage. Taking cue from Korea's FTA, I propose a two-level liberalization of the government procurement market under the GPA: A "light" level which would be the same as the current level of liberalization; and a "deep" level with lower thresholds and less exemptions. I argue that, as seen in Korea, with FTAs, many GPA Parties already have multiple levels of liberalization (i.e, spaghetti-bowl effect of FTAs), but by limiting the levels of liberalization to two, we can seek the best of deep liberalization but reduce the spaghetti-bowl effect.

This study aims to identify benthic macroinvertebrate fauna inhabiting at the mountain valley stream (Mt. Cheonggye) in Korea and the relationship between physical environmental factors and biological indices. Benthic macroinvertebrates were collected at five locations on August 24 and October 14, 2020, and were identified as 4 phyla, 7 classes, 16 orders, 42 families, and 72 species. Dominance ranged from 0.38 to 0.59, diversity 2.81 to 3.75, richness 3.25 to 4.63, evenness 0.65 to 0.84, and %EPT (Ephemeroptera-PlecopteraTrichoptera) richness value 42% to 73%, respectively. All sites were evaluated as a very good status by mostly biological indices based on tolerance of indicator organisms in Korea. As a result of principal component analysis, biological indices are classified into species-level indices and higher cartegory-level indices according to the taxonomic level of the indicator organism considered in each index. As a result of canonical correspondence analysis, it was confirmed that current velocity was a major factor that increased species richness and classified biological indices according to taxonomic category level. Water depth was a major factor related to the community indices, and the deeper the water depth, the lower the diversity and the evenness.

Background: This study was conducted to evaluate the individual and community level factors which were influencing the severe injury patients' death and transfer at discharge. Methods: Analysis data is based on Korean National Hospital Discharge In-depth Survey Data released by the Korea Center for Disease Control and Prevention from 2006 to 2008. Study subjects was 11,026 inpatients with of severe injury. For multi-level analysis, socio-demographic characteristics, injury related characteristics, hospitalization related characteristics were used as individual level factors, and socio-environmental characteristics and health care resource characteristics were used as community level factors. Results: As to community level factors affecting mortality of severe injury, the possibility of death was also high in cases of less numbers of surgeons per a population of 100,000 and more number of operation beds. As to community level factors affecting transfer of severe injury, vulnerable areas with higher social deprivation index and low population density had higher possibility of transfer. Conclusion: Both individual level factors and community level factors affected clinical outcomes of treatment for severe injury. In particular, since there happened higher death and transfer of severe injury in socioeconomic and medical vulnerable areas, special efforts for establishing preventive policy and care system for injury in national and area level should be directed toward such areas.

Currently. exchanges of industrial workers between countries are more active than ever. and the problem of AIDS in connection with the operation of preventive educational programs has reached a point where the issue cannot be limited to native people alone any more. Based on such judgement. this research has been carried out to provide basic study materials by grasping the latent factors representing the difference between countries in the levels of right knowledge. attitude and behavior with respect to AIDS maintained by workers who have grown in different social and cultural living background. During the period from Apr. 1. 1995 to Jun. 30. questionnaires. written both in Korean and English, were distributed to Korean and Malaysian employees working at certain Korean video manufacturers. and the results of replies. given by 80 workers who were analyzed through matched sampling· method where ages and sex matched by country. were used as the research materials. The gathered materials were analyzed through the SPSS package t-test. ANOVA. factor analysis and multiple stepwise regression methods. and the following results were obtained. 1. The 2 extracted latent factors could be named 'common. social' knowledge factor and 'in-depth. psychological' knowledge factor respectively. 2. The percentile points of 'external. social' knowledge factor. in the case of Korean workers. howed 90.0 at average. a figure 13.75 points higher than those of Malaysian workers. 76.25. On the other hand. the percentile points of the 'in-depth. psychological'knowledge factor showed 70.80 at average in the case of Korean workers. a figure 7.47 points lower than those of Malaysian workers. 78.33. Meanwhile. the difference in percentile points between the 2 latent factors was 8.54 at average. indicating that the points of 'in-depth. psychological' knowledge factor was lower than those of the 'external. social' knowledge factor. 3. As for Korean workers. the percentile points of the 'in-depth. psychological' knowledge factor showed higher points in office workers than in non-office workers. and such variables exhibited in the position of workers can explain the $7\%$ of the latent factor. The percentile points of the 'in-depth. psychological' knowledge factors. in the case of Malaysian workers. showed higher points in groups who had religion than in groups who did not. and higher points in groups who obtained information from newspapers than in groups who obtained from televisions or other sources; and with these 2 variables. $26\%$ of this latent factor can be explained. The results. of analysis described so far suggest that while Korean workers possessed general level of knowledge on AIDS. they had low level of practical knowledge as far as its depth is concerned. and that they had social prejudice on patients as well as on the AIDS infection route. In addition. because the overall knowledge level of Malaysian workers. is lower than that of Korean workers. it suggests that separate programs intended for Malaysian workers are required prior to executing integrated programs.

1997년 10월 21일에 발생한 지리산 국립공원의 산불 지역을 대상으로 토양 미생물의 분포 밀도 변화에 대해 연구하였다. 산불 발생 직후 표층, 지하 5cm, 10cm, 20cm, 30cm의 각 깊이에서 토양 미생물의 밀도를 조사하였다. 표층과 지하 5cm 깊이에 분포하는 세균의 밀도는 산불이 없었던 인근 지역의 $10^6$CFU/g soil 수준에 비해 $10^2$ CFU/g soil 수준으로 감소하였다. 방선균은 표층에서 완전히 소멸되었으며 지하 5cm 깊이에서는 대조구의 $10^6$CFU/g soil 수준에 비해 낮은 $10^3$ CFU/g soil 수준이었다. 곰팡이는 표층과 지하 5cm 깊이 모두에서 완전히 소멸된 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 지하 10cm 이상의 깊이에 분포하는 미생물들의 밀도는 전혀 감소되지 않았다. 또한 산불 발생 후 토양 미생물의 분포 회복 양상을 알아보기 위해 표층과 지하 5cm 깊이에서 경시적으로 밀도를 조사하였다. 산불 발생 2개월만에 미생물 밀도의 대부분은 크게 증가하여 산불이 없었던 인근 지역과 비슷하였으나토양 표층에 분포하는 방선균만은 산불 발생 4개월 후에도 여전히 대조구의 $10^6$ CFU/g soil 수준에 비해 낮은 $10^4$CFU/g soil 수준을 나타내었다.
