  • Background: As the quantity and complexity of radiological interventions are constantly increasing, gear that offers optimal protection while maintaining mobility and a low weight burden is becoming more important. A newly developed exoskeleton radiation protection system (ERPS) (StemRad MD; StemRad Ltd.) can carry the weight of the shielding. The aim of our study was to analyze initial experience, especially in terms of advantages and disadvantages, with this new ERPS in interventional radiology. Materials and Methods: Forty-six interventions utilizing the ERPS were analyzed. The interventional radiologists completed a 15-question survey evaluating various aspects of the protective system, including weight, mobility, comfort, and radiation protection adequacy. Results and Discussion: In 98% of procedures, interventionalists reported being very satisfied (89%) or slightly satisfied (9%) and would recommend the system to colleagues. The exoskeleton system was rated as 100% comfortable, not too heavy, and did not restrict mobility in 98% of cases. Conclusion: The ERPS is a recommendable alternative to standard lead aprons, providing flexibility, comfort, and effective weight distribution without restricting mobility.

  • Colonization studies previously performed with a green-fluorescent-protein, GFP, labeled derivative of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens FZB42 revealed that the bacterium behaved different in colonizing surfaces of plant roots of different species (Fan et al., 2012). In order to extend these studies and to elucidate which genes are crucial for root colonization, we applied targeted mutant strains to Arabidopsis seedlings. The fates of root colonization in mutant strains impaired in synthesis of alternative sigma factors, non-ribosomal synthesis of lipopeptides and polyketides, biofilm formation, swarming motility, and plant growth promoting activity were analyzed by confocal laser scanning microscopy. Whilst the wild-type strain heavily colonized surfaces of root tips and lateral roots, the mutant strains were impaired in their ability to colonize root tips and most of them were unable to colonize lateral roots. Ability to colonize plant roots is not only dependent on the ability to form biofilms or swarming motility. Six mutants, deficient in abrB-, sigH-, sigD-, nrfA-, yusV and RBAM017410, but not affected in biofilm formation, displayed significantly reduced root colonization. The nrfA- and yusV-mutant strains colonized border cells and, partly, root surfaces but did not colonize root tips or lateral roots.

  • Four Humboldt penguins were imported from overseas in March, 1975. Soon after arrival at the Zoological Garden of Chang Gyeong Won in Seoul, two penguins became ill with symptoms of severe dysnnoea, vomiting, diarrhea and mild convulsion. They died on the second day of illness. The main pathological finding was bronchitis which accompanied a caseous airsacculitis on the left lung. A massive melanin pigmentation in the intertubular tissue of the testis was found accidentally.

  • 미국 네바다주 북서지역은 주요 구조층서적 지구대의 상대적 이동에서 특징적이며 복잡한 구조가 발달되었다. 본 연구지역은 삼첩기 초기의 코이파토 층군과 삼첩기 중기의 스타피크 층군의 현지성 암석으로 구성되며, 이들 현지성 암석은 미국 네바다 북서지역의 험볼트 산맥에 위치한다. 본 연구는 쥬라기에서 백악기 말기동안 작용한 변형작용의 역사 그리고 그와 관련된 조직의 발달 그리고 고응력상태의 분석에 역적을 두었다. 펜스메이커 타지성 암석은 험볼트 산맥의 현지성 암석위로 E에서 ESE 방향으로 오우버 드러스트함에 따라 현지성 암석에 다변형작용을 보여둔다. 이러한 중생대 전지 변형자?에 관련된 구조는 N나 NNE 방향으로 잘 발달된 엽리구조, 서로 다른 습곡형태, 소규모의 드러스트, 전위 엽리의 발달 그리고 강력한 압쇄작용을 들 수 있다. 이들 구조는 험볼트 산맥의 서쪽 경계부를 따라 발달되었으며 미국 북서 네바다 지역에서의 최초 전지 변형작용 알려져 있다. 광역주 압축응력(${\sigma}_1$)은 여러 가지 $D_1$ 구조의 방향에 근거하여 E나 ESE 방향으로 밝혀졌다. 백악기 중기와 말기의 변형작용은 일정하게 배열된 N나 NNE 방향으로 주향하는 변성 석영맥과 기존에 발달된 $D_1$ 엽리구조에 평형한 전단대를 들 수 있다. 변성 석영맥의 일정한 방향성과 이와 관련된 구조는 백악기 중기와 말기의 본 연구 지역에 가해진 광역 주 응력 방향으로 해석되었다. 전단대의 전단감각은 우수 전단 방향으로서 이전에 형성된 $D_1$ 구조의 재활동에 근거한다. 이러한 결과는 쥬라기로부터 백악기 말기까지 연구지역에 작용한 광역 주 응력이 시계 반대방향으로 회전되었음을 반영한다. 마지막으로, 전단띠 벽개와 S/C 압쇄조직의 발달은 연구지역에서의 전단대가 불균질 단순 전단 작용을 받았음을 나타내며 또한 압쇄암 형성시 단축 작용동안 비동축류의 지대로서 작용했음을 나타낸다.

  • DNA is known as the genetic material in cells. Various environmental factors can cause DNA damages. One of them is sunlight. The life on earth depends on the sunlight, but on the other hand, the UV light in sunlight can cause skin DNA damages. When these damages are not fully repaired before replication, they can lead to mutations of oncogenes and tumour suppressor gene and result in photo carcinogenesis, in the end, skin cancer.(omitted)

  • In der Semiotik ist es sehr wichtig, den Rahmenbereich des Zeichens festzustellen, weil der Bereich des Zeichens je nach Wissenschaftler unterschiedlich ist. Dementsprechend muss jedes Forschungsergebnis in der Semiotik hinterfragt werden, um sichergehen zu $k\"{o}nnen$, ob es zur Semiotik $geh\"{o}rt$ oder nicht. Daher besteht $zun\"{a}chst$ die Notwendigkeit, zu bestimmen, was ein Zeichen ist. In diesem Zusammenhang versuchten wir in diesem Aufsatz, damit wir den Begriff 'Zeichen' besser erfassen $k\"{o}nnen$. das Zeichen von C. S. Peirce mit dem van W. v. Humboldt zu vergleichen. Zu Beginn dieses Aufsatzes stellten wir dar, was ein Zeichen ist. Dieser Vorgang ist notwendig, damit mit Hilfe des allgemeinen Begriffes des Zeichens ein Vergleich zwischen Peirce und Humboldt angestellt werden kann. Danach stellten wir die Zeichentheorie von Peirce vor. Nach Peirce ist die Sprache eine Untergattung von drei Zeichensorten, die Ikon, Index und Symbol genannt werden. Nach ihm gehbrt das Symbol zur Sprache. $F\"{u}r$ ihn ist der Interpretant im Zeichenbegriff am wichtigsten, weil ein Zeichen immer eines Interpretantes bedarf, der das Zeichen interpretiert. Aber der Interpretant ist kein Individuum, sondern ein interpretierendes $Bewu{\ss}tsein$, also eine traditionelle Gesellschaft, die ein Muster zum Interpretieren bietet. $Anschlie{\ss}end\;besch\"{a}ftigten$ wir uns mit der Theorie von Humboldt. Er benutzt verschiedene Zeichenbegriffe wie z.B. Schriftzeichen, Lautzeichen, Sprachzeichen, grammatische Zeichen, $h\"{o}rbare$ Zeichen, zeitliche Zeichen und $r\"{a}umliche$ Zeichen. Bei ihm ist die Unterscheidung zwischen Wort und Zeichen besonders wichtig, weil das Wort nicht zum Zeichen $geh\"{o}rt$, wie wir es normalerweise annehmen. Er behauptet, dass das Wort beim Produzieren motiviert ist. Daher ist nach ihm das Wort transsemiotisch. $Dar\"{u}ber$ hinaus muss das Zeichen und das Wort im Zusammenhang zwischen Sprache und Denken betrachtet werden. Wenn man das Wort als Zeichen betrachtet, ist das Wort ein Zwischending zwischen dem Sprechenden und dem Ding. Damit $k\"{o}nnen$ wir schlussfolgern; 1) Bei Humboldt ist das Zeichen em Mittel zum Denken, das sich vom transsemiotischen Wort unterscheidet. 2) Nach Peirce besteht ein Zeichen aus Ikon, Index und Symbol. Im Zeichen, das aus Reprasentamen, Interpretant und Objekt besteht, ist der Interpretant am wichtigsten, denn ein Zeichen, dass keinen Interpretant hat, ist kein Zeichen mehr, das interpretierbar ist.

  • Objective: This study investigated the impact of a single piezocision in the maxillary alveolar process on the speed of tooth movement. The null hypothesis was that the speed of tooth movement will be equal with and without piezocision. Methods: All maxillary molars on one side were moved against the combined incisors in 10 ten-week-old male Wistar rats. Under general anesthesia, a force of 25 cN was applied on either side using a Sentalloy closed coil spring. After placing the orthodontic appliance, vertical corticision was performed using a piezotome under local anesthesia, 2 mm mesial from the mesial root of the first molar on a randomly selected side; the other side served as the control. At the beginning of the treatment, and 2 and 4 weeks later, skull micro-computed tomography was performed. After image reconstruction, the distance between the mesial root of the first molar and the incisive canal, and the length of the mesial root of the first maxillary molar were measured. Moreover, the root resorption score was determined as described by Lu et al. Results: Significantly higher speed of tooth movement was observed on the corticision side; thus, the null hypothesis was rejected. The loss of root length and root resorption score were significantly more pronounced after piezocision than before. A strong correlation was observed between the speed of tooth movement and root resorption on the surgical side, but the control side only showed a weak correlation. Conclusions: Piezocision accelerates orthodontic tooth movement and causes increased root resorption.
