This study investigated the extend to which the facilities satisfactorily accommodate people with different disabilities and their specific needs for improving the facilities. Systematic interviews were conducted with 90 disabled people using the non-propertionate stratified cluster random sampling method. Frequency analysis, Chi-square tests, Duncan tests, and analysis of variance(ANOVA) were employed for data analysis. The findings indicated that the respondents' assessment of accommodations and needs for improving accommodations differed by the type of disabilities. People with physical disabilities were the least satisfied with stairs, followed by seating in stadiums and/or theaters. For people with visual disabilities, the lack of guidance and information facilities was the most difficult problem. People with hearing disabilities often pointed out difficulties in using public telephones. meanwhile, people with physical disabilities asked for easy access to assistive devices and improved mobility-related circumstances. yet people with visual disabilities expected to improve way-finding relevant issues, such as detectable warnings on walking surfaces and guidance and information facilities, whereas people with hearing disabilities desired to develop hearing-aid equipments, such as TDD and assistive listening systems.

This study is aimed at finding out different types of speech characteristics categorized based on voice rehabilitation techniques used on twenty-six patients (all-male) with total or partial laryngectomees. The speech intelligibility of standard esophageal (SE), tracheoesophageal speech (TE), and electriclarynx (EL) was measured by using the CSL and eleven listeners were instructed to rate the speech on a 5-point scale. The vowel space parameters such as vowel space, VAI, FCR, and F2 ratio were measured by averaging 5 repeats of each vowel (/a/, /e/, /i/, /u/) and the results were put into the parameter formula. The results showed significant statistical differences in speech intelligibility and vowel space between SE and TE. The speech intelligibility and vowel space of TE were higher than those of SE or EL and there was a high correlation between speech intelligibility and some parameters (vowel space, VAI, F2 ratio). The results also showed that TE's speech characteristics were most similar to normal groups comparing with SE and EL, but still very deviant in laryngeal speech. This was due to insufficient airflow intake into the esophagus when producing sounds, and because articulation movement was carried out differently among groups. Therefore, these findings will contribute to establishing a baseline related to speech characteristics in voice rehabilitation for patients with alaryngeal speech.

The intermediate filament is one of the most important constituents of the intracytoplasmic cytoskeleton microtubule, actin, myosin and intermediate filament. It is composed of keratin, desmin, vimentin, neurofilament and glial filament, and has important role as a cellular marker, epithelial or mesenchymal origin. So it will be important to differentiated from some poorly or undifferentiated neoplasm to provide adequate therapeutic modalities. This study was performed by using immunohistochemical staining and electron microscopic observation to find out intermediate filaments of epithelial and non-epithelial tumor cells evaluate the degree of differentiation in tumors and therefore to provide some diagnostic and therapeutic modalities. The materials consisted of 83 epithelial and non-epithelial elements bearing 23 normal control, 28 epithelial tumors, and 32 non-epithelial tumors, that are resected for definite treatment at Chosun University Hospital from June, 1988 to June, 1990. Immunohistochemical stain for keratin, desmin and vimentin, and electron microscopic study were performed in all cases. The results obtained were as follows. 1. Immunohistochemical stain for intermediate filament were very useful diagnostic aid for differentiated epithelial tumor to non-epithelial tumor in diagnostic neoplasia. 2. In the electron microscopic finding, the size of intermediate filaments were possible differentiated to cell components of epithelial tumor and non-epithelial tumors.

In spite of a tendency automatizing manaufacturing processes, since power presses are highly repetitive at high speeds, they have still been using to a large extent in many industries. More often than not, press workers have to make decisions whether work materials are located well or not, they should rearrange them or not, and their bodies would be safe or not. If the decision would be wrong, of course, they cause severe damages to human workers so that many workers haven't been willing to work with them. However, with the help of computer technologies, it would be possible to aid the press workers' decisions, and to allow or prohibit them from inserting their hands between slide rams and dies. Thus, this research was aimed to evaluate and analyze possibilities of applying Image Processing Techniques for prevention of press accidents. Through a series of procedures including Capturing work sites and material, Image Enhancement, Contouring, and Edge Finding, work characteristics were obtained and analyzed. The results showed that there were somewhat differences in image characteristics between accident-induced work scenes and accident-free ones. Consequently, if the image analyses are well carried out in real time, they would give a successful help to human press workers.

With the aid of extracorporeal circulation, nine dogs underwent orthotopic cardiopulmonary transplantation after preservation of the donor heart in a hypothermic amino acid[glutamate, aspartate] enriched high potassium extracellular solution, and preservation of the donor lung with hypothermic low potassium dextran solution from June 1990 to May 1991. The mean body weights of dogs were 20kg and the recipients` preoperative hematologic and hemodynamic pictures were within normal range except slightly decreased level of albumin and total protein, which was supposed to be due to malnutrition. The following modifications of the original Stanford technique were emphasized: [1] the posterior mediastinum is dissected as little as possible with meticulous hemostasis; [2] the surgical procedure is kept away from the phrenic and vagus nerves; [3] the tracheal anastomosis may be wrapped with recipient`s pulmonary artery flap or surrouding soft tissues. A combination of Cyclosporine, Azathioprine, corticosteroid was used as perioperative immunosuppressive therapy. Postoperatively all recipients could be weaned from extracorporeal circulation, showing favorable vital signs, but within 24 hours, irreversible congetive heart failure, ascites, arrhythmias developed with a mean survival time 13.6$\pm$6.6[n=9, range=6~26] hours. Hemoglobin and platelet counts were significantly[p<0.05] decreased postoperatively, which is thought to be attributed to blood damage by cardiopulmonary bypass and hemodilution. Postmortem finding included multiple subendocardial patch hemorrhage in both atrial and ventricular cavities, pulmonary and liver congestion, and all tracheal anastomoses were intact. Further consideration about quality control of the animal, infection, rejection, the effect of cardiopulmonary bypass on the experimental animal is required to improve the results.

Finding epileptogenic zone is the most important step for the successful epilepsy surgery. F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) can be used in the localization of epileptogenic foci. In medial temporal lobe epilepsy, the diagnostic sensitivity of FDG-PET and ictal SPECT is excellent. However, detection of hippocampal sclerosis by MRI is so certain that use of FDG-PET and ictal SPECT in medial temporal lobe epilepsy is limited for some occasions. In neocortical epilepsy, the sensitivities of FDG-PET or ictal SPECT are fair. However, FDG-PET and ictal SPECT can have a crucial role in the localization of epileptogenic foci for non-lesional neocortical epilepsy. Interpretation of FDG-PET has been recently advanced by voxel-based analysis and automatic volume of interest analysis based on a population template. Both analytical methods can aid the objective diagnosis of epileptogenic foci. Ictal SPECT was analyzed using subtraction methods and voxel-based analysis. Rapidity of injection of tracers, ictal EEG findings during injection of tracer, and repeated ictal SPECT were important technical issues of ictal SPECT. SPECT can also be used in the evaluation of validity of Wada test.

Normal activation of platelets and their aggregation are crucial during hemostasis process. It appears excessive or abnormal aggregation of platelets may bring about cardiovascular diseases like stroke, atherosclerosis, and thrombosis. For this reason, finding a substance that can regulate platelet aggregation or suppress aggregation will aid in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Artemisinin, a compound derived from Artemisia or Scopolia plants, has shown potential in various areas such as anticancer and Alzheimer's disease research. However, the specific role and mechanisms by which artemisinin influences platelet activation and thrombus formation are not yet fully understood. This study investigated the effects of artemisinin on platelet activation and thrombus formation. This study examined the effect of artemisinin on regulation of U46619-induced platelet aggregation, granule secretion. In addition, the effects of artemisinin on phosphorylation of PI3K/Akt and MAPK pathway involved in platelet aggregation was studied. As a result, artemisinin significantly downregulated of PI3K/Akt and MAPK pathway. In addition, artemisinin significantly reduced granule secretion, and platelet aggregation was inhibited by artemisinin. Therefore, we suggest that artemisinin is an anti-platelet substance that regulates PI3K/Akt and MAPK pathway and is valuable as a therapeutic and preventive agent for platelet-derived cardiovascular disease.
