In this paper, different criteria fur determining hue change time in the hue detection based transient liquid crystals technique were compared. Results showed that methods utilizing threshold of intensity or saturation gave many missing points and quality of the calculated results were strongly depends on the value of threshold. Wider bandwidth in the hue bandwidth method showed better distribution of calculated hue change time, but induced ambiguity in the hue change time. In the time-hue curve fitting method, the distribution of evaluated hue change time was smooth and reasonable, and, by the nature of curve fitting, the noise effect on the hue was successfully considered in calculating of the hue change time. Compared to other methods, it is expected that the time-hue curve fitting method would provide better and accurate hue change time in the hue detection based transient liquid crystals technique.

Objective: As the associations of sperm DNA fragmentation with morphology have not been examined in detail, this study aimed to investigate the relationship between abnormalities of morphological details and DNA integrity in human sperm. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, men from infertile couples were enrolled at Hue Center for Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility, Vietnam. Conventional semen parameters, including morphological details, were analyzed following the World Health Organization 2010 criteria. Sperm DNA fragmentation was evaluated using a sperm chromatin dispersion assay. The relationships and correlations between semen parameters, sperm morphology, and the type of halosperm and the DNA fragmentation index (DFI) were analyzed. Results: Among 130 men in infertile couples, statistically significant differences were not found in the sperm halo type between the normal and abnormal sperm morphology groups. The percentage of round-head spermatozoa was higher in the DFI >15% group (16.98%±12.50%) than in the DFI ≤15% group (13.13% ±8.82%), higher values for amorphous heads were found in the DFI >15% group, and lower values for tapered heads were observed in the DFI ≤15% group; however, these differences were not statistically significant. Small-halo sperm and the DFI were positively correlated with round-head sperm (r=0.243, p=0.005 and r=0.197, p=0.025, respectively). Conclusion: The rate of general sperm morphological abnormalities in semen analysis was not related to sperm DNA integrity. However, round sperm heads were closely associated with sperm DNA fragmentation.

Objective: Sperm cryopreservation has been widely used in assisted reproductive technology, as it offers great potential for the treatment of some types of male infertility. However, cryopreservation may result in changes in membrane lipid composition and acrosome status, as well as reductions in sperm motility and viability. This study aimed to evaluate sperm DNA fragmentation damage caused by conventional freezing using the sperm chromatin dispersion test. Methods: In total, 120 fresh human semen samples were frozen by conventional methods, using SpermFreeze Solution as a cryoprotectant. Routine semen analysis and a Halosperm test (using the Halosperm kit) were performed on each sample before freezing and after thawing. Semen parameters and sperm DNA fragmentation were compared between these groups. Results: There was a significant decrease in sperm progressive motility, viability, and normal morphology after conventional freezing (32.78%, 79.58%, and 3.87% vs. 16%, 55.99%, and 2.55%, respectively). The sperm head, midpiece, and tail defect rate increased slightly after freezing. Furthermore, the DNA fragmentation index (DFI) was significantly higher after thawing than before freezing (19.21% prior to freezing vs. 22.23% after thawing). Significant increases in the DFI after cryopreservation were observed in samples with both normal and abnormal motility and morphology, as well as in those with normal viability. Conclusion: Conventional freezing seems to damage some sperm parameters, in particular causing a reduction in sperm DNA integrity.

A spotted scat, Scatophagus argus, has a high nutritional value and is among Asia's most widely consumed fish species. Thua Thien Hue's consumption market considers this species to be of high economic value and requires protection and conservation of the population. However, the studies on the identification and genetic diversity of S. argus distributed in Vietnam are still lacking. Therefore, mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene was utilized to distinguish different populations and investigate the genetic diversity of two populations of S. argus from Tam Giang lagoon, Thua Thien Hue province (n = 31) and Ca Mau province (n = 14). The sequencing results indicated 13 distinct haplotypes among 45 sequences. Five single nucleotide polymorphisms were observed to distinguish Hue spotted scat population. The S. argus population in Ca Mau province was higher haplotype diversity (Hd) and nucleotide diversity (π) than those of Thua Thien Hue province, which demonstrates that there are minor differences between haplotypes. There were genetic distances ranging from 0%-4% within the populations and 6.67% between the two populations. In addition to the sequencing, the comparison of morphology, biology, culture, and the growth rate was sufficient to distinguish the spotted scat S. argus in Thua Thien Hue from Ca Mau.

Background: Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrinopathies among reproductive-age women. Its metabolic features often overlap with those associated with metabolic syndrome (MS) and insulin resistance syndrome (IRS). The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence and predictors of MS and IRS in infertile Vietnamese women with PCOS. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at a tertiary fertility centre at Hue University Hospital from June 2016 to November 2017. A total of 441 infertile women diagnosed with PCOS based on the revised 2003 Rotterdam consensus criteria were enrolled. MS and IRS were defined based on the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute/American Heart Association Adult Treatment Panel III 2005 and American College of Endocrinology IRS 2003 criteria, respectively. Complete clinical and biochemical measurements of 318 women were available for analysis. Independent predictors of MS and IRS were identified using multivariate logistic regression. Results: The overall prevalence of MS and IRS in women with PCOS was 10.4% and 27.0%, respectively. We identified older age (>30 years) and obesity as independent predictors of MS and IRS. Elevated anti-$M{\ddot{u}}llerian$ hormone levels increased the risk of IRS, but not that of MS. Conclusion: MS and IRS are prevalent disorders among infertile Vietnamese women with PCOS. PCOS is not solely a reproductive problem. Screening and early intervention for MS and/or IRS based on anthropometric, metabolic, and reproductive hormone risk factors should be an integral part of fertility care.

인간 시각은 고휘도를 접할 경우 색 민감도가 떨어진다. 이러한 현상으로 인해, 인간이 고휘도와 일반 휘도를 가지는 두 디스플레이를 볼 때, 측정 상 동일한 색을 가지는 패치에 대해 두 색이 다르다고 인지하게 되고, 이를 색상이동 현상이라 한다. 본 논문에서는 고휘도와 일반휘도 디스플레이의 색상이동현상을 모델링하고, 두 디스플레이의 색이 인간시각에 동일하게 인지되도록 하는 색 보정 방법을 제안하였다. 색상이동모델은 색상 매칭 실험으로써 결정된다. 먼저 실험은 고휘도와 일반휘도 디스플레이의 3단계 밝기에서 비율을 일정하게 유지하여 수행한다. 실험에 쓰이는 패치는, CIELAB 색 공간에서 밝기와 채도를 고정하여 색상만 변화하는 패치를 사용한다. 실험에서 관찰자는 휘도차가 나는 두 패치를 동시에 보면서, 고휘도 디스플레이의 인지되는 색상이 일반 휘도의 디스플레이와 같을 때까지 색상 값만을 수정하고, 수정된 색상 값의 차이가 색상이동양으로 사용된다. 실험에서 얻어진 각 패치의 색상 이동양은 일곱 개의 구간으로 나뉘어 모델링 되어 색상이동모델로 사용된다. 고휘도 디스플레이의 색 보정은 픽셀단위로 수행되며, 먼저 입력 RGB 값을 CIELAB 값으로 변환 후, 색상 값만을 보정하기 위하여 LCh(lightness, chroma, hue)값으로 변환한다. 여기서, 색상 값만을 색상이동모델을 사용하여 수정한 후, 역 과정을 통하여 출력 RGB값을 추정한다. 평가를 위해 관찰자의 선호도 테스트를 하였고, 대부분의 관찰자는 고휘도 디스플레이에서 색상이동모델이 적용된 영상이 일반휘도를 가지는 디스플레이의 영상과 인지되는 색상이 유사하다고 판단하였다.울어진 분포를 보여주고 있어 응용분야에 따라 정확한 분석이 필요한 경우 이러한 펄스 모양을 고려한 방법이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 펄스 모양을 처리하기 위한 새로운 방법론이 제시되어있다.는데 더 부합하는 것으로 평가할 수 있다. 높았고 외해역에서 다소 낮은 경향이었으며 지세포항 내에 위치한 정점은 '심각한 교란(heavily disturbed)'을 나타내기도 하였으나 연구 해역 전반적으로 '경미한 교란(slightly disturbed)'을 나타내고 있었다. 지세포항 인근 연안역의 저서생태계는 다소 불안정하거나 교란된 군집을 형성하고 있다고 볼 수 있으나 연구 해역 전반적으로는 계절적으로 큰 변동 없이 비교적 안정된 군집을 형성하고 있다고 보여진다.의 치료 방법으로서 관혈적 방법과 고식적 관절경적 수술보다 좋은 치료라고 판단된다.해는 30명 중 28명으로 완전관해율은 93%였다. 3년 국소제어율은 87%, 전체환자의 3년 생존율은 93%, 무병생존율은 87%였다. 4명(13%)에서 국소실패를 보였고 1명(3%)에서 원격전이를 보였다. 치료 중 급성 합병증으로 11명(37%)에서 RTOG grade 1-2의 장염을 보였으며 1명은 대장의 천공이 발생하여 수술로 치유되었다. 12명(40%)에서 RTOG grade 1-2의 급성 방광염을 보였다. 3명(10%)에서 RTOG grade 1-2의 백혈구 감소증이 보였으며 1명에서 심한 백혈구 감소증(RTOG grade 4)이 나타났으나 회복되어 치료를 완료하였다. 만성 합병증으로 5명(15%)에서 RTOG grade 1-2의 만성 장염을 보였으며 별다른 치료 없이 지내고 있으며 1명(3%)에서 R

본 논문은 추가적인 화이트 채널을 사용한 프로젝터와 사용하지 않은 프로젝터간의 매칭 실험을 통하여 색상이동 현상을 모델링하였고, 색상을 수정하는 방법을 제안하였다. 전체 색상 값에 대해 색상이동현상을 정량화하기 위하여, 동일한 밝기와 채도 값을 유지하여 24개의 색상 패치 값을 생성하여 이를 화이트를 추가한 상태와 추가하지 않은 상태에서 투영하였다. 다음으로 각각의 패치에 대해 화이트를 추가 하지 않은 상태와 동일한 색상으로 인지되도록 화이트를 추가한 상태의 색상 값을 변경하였다. 색상 매칭 실험을 통하여 얻은 색상 이동 값을 6개의 구간으로 나누어 4차 방정식을 이용하여 수식화하여 임의의 색상 값에 대한 색상 이동 값을 추정하였고, 색상 값을 수정하는 위하여 사용하였다. 실제로, 입력 RGB 영상은 각각의 픽셀에 대해 CIELAB LCH 색 공간으로 변경하여 각각의 픽셀의 색상 값을 계산하였다. 이 색상 값은 추정된 색상이동량을 이용하여 수정하게 된다. 최종적으로 결과 RGB 영상은 역 과정으로 변환하였다. 제안한 방법을 평가하기 위하여 여러 가지 테스트 영상을 이용하여 매칭 실험을 수행하였고 이를 z-scores를 이용하여 비교하였다.

Mean-Shift 알고리즘은 객체 모델과 객체 후보 영상에서 색상 히스토그램 분포의 유사도를 이용하여 객체를 추적하는 강인한 알고리즘이다. 그러나 색상정보를 이용한 Mean-Shift 알고리즘은 객체와 배경이 비슷한 색상 분포를 가질 경우에 추적에 실패할 수 있는 단점이 있다. 이러한 단점을 보완하기 위해 배경과 객체를 분리할 정보를 색상(hue)과 채도(saturation) 영상에서 각각 4비트의 bit-plane을 조합한 새로운 영상을 사용한 강인한 객체 추적 알고리즘을 구현한다.
