  • Purpose: Recovery has a growing influence on policy for individuals with mental illness and their families. This study was designed to examine the meaning of recovery from the perspectives of community-dwelling patients with mental illness and their families. Methods: Using a descriptive qualitative approach, in-depth, face-to-face interviews were conducted on 24 adults (14 patients with mental illness and 10 family members). All interviews were audiotaped, transcribed and analyzed using thematic analysis. Results: The findings showed that recovery for the patients with mental illness suggested gradual changes by individual will and self-awareness, the relationship with both their family and self-help group, and the support of a therapeutic environment. Seven primary themes emerged from the analysis: improving insight on illness, strong will toward hope, discovering changed myself, helping each other together, gradual influence of positivity, being oriented to a therapeutic setting, and recognizing of home as a calm place. Conclusion: The findings of this study revealed that based on the conceptual elements of recovery of the patients with mental illness and their families, we expect to improve the systematic, comprehensive, and quality mental health services.

  • Seral changes in environmental factors and recovery of soil fertility during abandoned field succession after shifting cultivation were investigated in eastern Kangwon-Do, Korea. Relative light intensity of herb and shrub layer decreased gradually until 50 years and increased slightly thereafter. Amount of litter and nutrients derived from it were depicted as a parabola form showing the gradual increment during the first 50 years and slight decrease thereafter. Organic matter, pH value, total-N and Mg of soil were plotted as an early depletion-mid pinnacle form showing the extrems depletion during the first 10 years, abrupt increase in about 20 or 50 years and gradual decrease thereafter. Ca, Al, Mn and Na of soil were depicted as a pinnacle form showing the peak in about 20 or 50 years. Thickness and field capacity of soil increased gradually, but K and total-P did not show any tendency as succession proceeded. The soil fertility, overall capacity of soil nutrients and water for plant growth, was plotted as the early depletion-mid pinnacle form.

  • HSP70 has widely been induced in in vivo hyperthermia conditions in various organisms to study gene regulation and recently neuroprotectve roles of the induced gene expression under varying conditions. We investigated different responses among various tissues in zebrafish under heat shock to evaluate whether spatial and temporal expression pattern of zebrafish (z) hsp70 in transcriptional and translational level under heat shock stress in different brain regions. Heat shock groups were given for 1 h at $37^{\circ}C$ after recovery by transferring the treated animals back to $28^{\circ}C$ for 1, 2 and 24 h for recovery, respectively. Control (CTRL) group was kept at $28^{\circ}C$. At the end of treatments, five animals were collected and used for isolation of total RNAs and peptides from the corresponding tissues. Expression of zhsp70 mRNA showed different patterns in recovery periods in the tissues including the brain, eye, intestines, muscles, heart and testis by RT-PCR. Unlike the RT-PCR analysis, Northern blot analysis demonstrated nearly 30-fold increase in zhsp70 at 1 h heat shock, suggesting that RT-PCR may not be appropriate in unmasking regulation of the time-dependent zhsp70 expression. In the experiment involving different brain regions, the cerebellum showed gradual activation at 1 h to R1h and decreases in R2h and R24h, while the medulla oblongata and optic tectum showed gradual increase at R1h and decrease at R24h, indicating that different brain tissues respond specifically to heat shock in inducing zhsp70 and recovering from the heat shock status. Western blot analysis also demonstrated that the intracellular levels of zHSP70 in three different brain regions including the cerebellum, medulla oblongata and optic tectum are differently induced and recovered to normal state. These results clearly demonstrate that different regions of the body and the brain tissues are responding differently to heat shock in the aspects of its level of expression and speed of recovery.

  • Tracheostomy refers to a surgical incision created in the neck to allow direct air entry into the trachea bypassing the upper respiratory tract including the oral and nasal cavities. Normal vocalization and swallowing are limited immediately postoperatively; however, gradual recovery of vocalization and swallowing function can be initiated, following improvement in the causative condition that necessitated the tracheostomy. Duration of the tracheostomy depends upon the patient's condition, and the degree of vocalization and swallowing function recovery after tracheostomy tube removal varies widely across patients. In this review, we investigated the changes associated with vocalization and swallowing function in patients who underwent tracheostomy and have discussed the various approaches and voice rehabilitation treatments to aid with normal recovery.

  • Recently a new regime, called "back school" is advocated for the purpose of rapidly and economically returning a patient to full functional fitness and normal occupational activities. Assuming that this functional and vocational restoration is a goal of a regabilitation program, it is apparent that early recovery and higher success rate are major concern. In this study, a mixture model is developed and used to evaluate the recovery process of low back pain (LBP) patients in a rehabilitation program. The model provides (1) the probability of being recovered, and (2) the rate of recovery. Patients with gradual onset, with higher education, or of young age tend to show better prognosis.

  • This study was implemented to verify the feasibility of motor function recovery and the appropriate period for therapy. The research began with spinal laminectomy of 40 white rats of Sprague-Dawley breed and induced them spinal crush injury. Following results were obtained by using the modified Tarlov test (MTT), Basso, Beattle, Bresnahan locomotor rating scale (EBB scale) and modified inclined plate test (MIPT). First, the measurement using the MTT confirm that the most severe aggravation and degeneration of functions are observed two days after induced injury, and no sign of neuromotor function recovery. Second, better scores were achieved by open-ground movement group on BBB locomotor rating scale test, and weight-bearing on inclined plate group show better performance on MIPT. Third, both BBB and MIPT scale manifested the peak of motor function recovery during 16th day after the injury and turn into gradual recovery gradient during 16th to 24th. Fourth, the control group showed functional recovery, however, the level of recovery was less significant when compared with group open-ground movement group and weight-bearing on inclined plate group. Hence, it was clearly manifested that the lumbar region of the spinal cord had shown the best performance when its functions were measured after the execution of specific physical training; therefore it indicated the possibility of learning specific task even in damaged lumbar regions. Thus it is expected to come out with better and more effective functional recovery if concentrated physical therapy was applied starting 4 days after the injury till 16 days, which is the period of the most active recovery.

  • 본 연구는 단계적 일상회복 이후 상권 회복세와 함께 임대료가 급상승한 시점에 주목하여 젠트리피케이션 분석 모형을 구축하고 그 특징을 살펴보는 것이 목적이다. 최근 국내에서는 팬데믹 이후 거리두기의 영향으로 대규모 상권보다는 소규모 상권이 형성되었다. 바로 핫플레이스라고 알려진 골목상권이다. 핫플레이스는 다양한 미디어와 사회관계망서비스를 통해 집객효과를 누리며 인기를 끌고 있다. 그에 따라 유동인구가 증가하면서 상권이 활성화 되고 임대료가 급상승하는 현상이 발생하고 있다. 하지만 소상공인의 경우 임대료 급상승은 매출 증가로도 감당하지 못해 해당 지역을 이탈하는 젠트리피케이션 현상으로 이어질 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 상권이 다시 활성화되면서 임대료가 급상승하는 시점을 찾아 그 이전과 이후를 분석하고자 한다. 먼저 젠트리피케이션에 관련하여 언급되는 토픽을 탐색하기 위해 텍스트 데이터를 수집한 후 LDA 토픽 모델링을 실시한다. 이를 참고하여 상권 단위로 데이터를 수집하고 젠트리피케이션 분석 모형을 구축한 다음 특징을 분석한다. 팬데믹으로 상권이 침체된 이후 재활성화 되고 있는 시점에 본 모형을 통한 젠트리피케이션 분석이 소상공인 정책에 기여할 수 있기를 바란다.

  • The infraorbital nerve is a branch of the trigeminal nerve. Injury to the infraorbital nerve can be caused by trauma, including various facial fractures. Due to this nerve injury, patients complain of numbness and pain in the entire cheek, the ala of nose, and upper lip. In general, spontaneous sensory recovery is expected after decompressive surgery. If nerve transection is confirmed, however, neurorrhaphy is typically performed. Here, we present a case in which microsurgery was not performed in a patient with Sunderland grade V avulsion injury of the infraorbital nerve due to a facial bone fracture. Gradual nerve function recovery was confirmed to be possible with conservative treatment and rehabilitation alone. These findings suggest that the nerve function recovery can be expected with conservative treatment, even for severe nerve injury for which microsurgery cannot be considered.

  • Adsorption behaviors of positively charged matrix (PAH) onto negatively charged probe (sulfate PS particle) were investigated using DLS (dynamic light scattering) and FPR (fluorescence photobleaching recovery) as view points of matrix and salt concentration. The system experienced sharp decrease of diffusion (flocculation) at dilute condition while the system underwent gradual decrease of diffusion above semi-dilute concentration. With FPR and viscometry experiments, we revealed the probe behaviors in polyelectrolyte solution were strongly affected by the coil overlap concentration (0.5 g/L PAH concentration).
