연구배경: 양성 질환과 악성 질환의 감별 전단으로 혈청에서의 cyfra 21-1 에 관한 연구는 많이 되고 있으나, 흉수내 cyfra 21-1 의 진단적 의의에 관한 연구는 거의 없는 실정이다. 저자들은 흉수의 원인의 감별 진단으로 흉수의 cyfra 21-1 이 진단적 의의가 있는지를 알아보기 위하여 흉수내 cyfra 21-1 을 측정하였으며 혈청내 cyfra 21-1과도 비교하여 흉수내 cyfra 21-1의 진단적 의의를 알아보았다. 연구방법: 1994년 8월부터 1996년 6월까지 삼출성 흉막염으로 내원하였던 환자 92례를 대상으로 흉수와 혈청의 cyfra 21-1을 측정하였다. 흉수의 원인은 생화학적 검사, 세포학적 검사, 그리고 기관지 내시경 등응로 확진 되었으며, 흉수의 원인 질환에 따라 흉수와 혈청 cyfra 21-1 을 비교하였으며 각각의 민감도와 특이도는 ROC 곡선으로 분석하였다. 결과: 혈청 cyfra 21-1은 폐암군에서 가장 높았으며 양성질환군 및 전이암군과 비교할 때 양성 질환군과는 통계학적 의의가 있었으나, 전이암군과는 통계학적 의의가 없었다. 폐암군의 흉수 cyfra 21-1은 혈청보다 높았고, 각 질병군을 비교하였을 때 혈청에서와 같은 통계학적 결과를 보였다. 혈청과 흉수의 cyfra 21-1의 상관관계는 양성 질환군의 경우 통계학적 의의가 없었으나(r=-0.044, p=0.866), 악성 질환군은 유의한 상관 관계가 있었다(r=0.837, p=0.001). 전체 악성질환군인 경우 혈청 cyfra 21-1의 cut off 치를 2.7ng/mL로 하였을 때 민감도와 특이도는 각각 72.7%, 72.4%였으며, 폐암군은 cut off 치를 2.39ng/mL로 하였을 때 민감도와 특이도는 각각 73.9%, 72.4%로 두 군사이의 cut off 치, 민감도, 특이도는 차이가 없었다. 흉수 cyfra 21-1은 전체 악성 질환군의 경우 cut off 치가 10.74ng/mL 일 때 민감도 및 특이도는 각각 78.7%, 69.6% 이었으며, 폐암군은 cut off 치가 22.25 ng/mL 일 때 민감도 및 특이도는 각각 81.8%, 78.7%였다. 결론: 흉수의 cyfra 21-1 치는 양성 질환보다 악성 질환에 의한 흉막염에서 유의하게 높았으며 특히 원발성 폐암에 의한 악성 흉막염에서 민감도와 특이도가 높아 원발성 폐암에 의한 흉수의 감별진단에 cyfra 21-1을 유용하게 이용할 수 있을 것으로 생각한다.

연구배경: 폐색전증의 진단에 있어 확전법인 폐동맥 조영술은 관혈적이고 임상에서의 제약이 있으며, 폐환기-관류주사는 비고확률 소견인 경우 진단적 민감도 및 특이도가 낮은 문제가 있다. 혈장 D-dimer는 섬유소분 해산물로 임상적으로 폐색전증이 의심되는 환자에서 증가되는 것이 알려져 있어 혈장 D-dimer의 측정이 폐색전증에 있어 어떤 진단적 가치가 있는지 알아보고자 하였다. 방법: 전향적 임상연구로 정상대조군 21예와 폐색전증 환자군 9예에서 latex agglutination법에 의해 혈장 D-dimer를 측정하고 폐동맥조영술 결과와 비교하였다. 결과: 1) 대조군 및 폐색전증군의 혈장 D-dimer치; 대조군의 혈장 D-dimer치는 21예중 0.5 mg/L 미만 11예, 0.5 mg/L 보다 높은 경우 10예 였고, 폐색전증군 9예중 0.5 mg/L 미만 1예, 0.5 mg/L 보다 8예로 혈장 D-dimer치가 0.5 mg/L 이상으로 증가된 양성율은 폐색전증군에서 대조군에 비해 유의하게 많았다(p=0.049). 2) 혈장 D-dimer치의 진단적 효용; 혈장 D-dimer치 0.5 mg/L를 cut-off으로 했을 때 폐색전증 진단의 민감도 88.9%(8/9), 특이도 52.4%(11/21), 양성예측치 44.4%(8/18) 및 음성 예측치 91.7%(11/12)였다. 결론: 폐색전증의 진단에 있어 D-dimer의 측정치가 cut-off(0.5 mg/L)치 이내인 경우 폐색전증의 존재 가능성은 매우 적을 것으로 사료되었다.

Condition based maintenance(CBM) for the preventive diagnosis of important equipments related to safety or accident in power plant is essential by using the suitable methods based on actual power plant conditions. To improve the reliability and accuracy of the measured value at the minute leak situation, and also to monitor continuously internal leak condition of power plant valve, the development of a diagnosis and monitoring technique using multi-measuring method should be performed urgently. This study was conducted to estimate the feasibility of multi-measuring method using three different methods such as acoustic emission(AE) method, thermal image measurement and temperature difference$({\Delta}T)$ measurement that are applicable to internal leak diagnosis for the power plant valve. From the experimental results, it was suggested that the multi-measuring method could be an effective way to precisely diagnose and evaluate internal leak situation of valve.

Indigestion is one of the most frequent symptom in chronic hepatitis. We treated a 20 year-old female patient of chronic active hepatitis type B with Sengangeonbi-tang. The patient complained indigestion and constipation. The serum aminotransferase were higher and viral marker showed hepatitis was in active phase. 1 week later, the symptom had been changed from severe to mild and aminotransferase decreased. We continued to prescribe the medicine 2 weeks more and could observe that the symptom disappeared and the aminotransferase fell down under normal value with no side effect. Sengangeonbi-tang showed desirable effect on indigestion and more rapid recovery of aminotransferase than previous reports about treating hepatitis.

The most widely used primary protection for the internal fault detection of the power transformer is current ratio differential relaying (CRDR) with harmonic restraint. However, the second harmonic component could be decreased by magnetizing inrush when there have been changes to the material of the iron core or its design methodology. The higher the capacitance of the high voltage status and underground distribution, the more the differential current includes the second harmonic during the occurrence of an internal fault. Therefore, the conventional second harmonic restraint CRDR must be modified. This paper proposes a numerical algorithm for enhanced power transformer protection. This algorithm enables a clear distinction regarding internal faults as well as magnetizing inrush and steady state. It does this by analyzing the RMS fluctuation of terminal voltage, instantaneous value of the differential current, RMS changes, harmonic component analysis of differential current, and analysis of flux-differential slope characteristics. Based on the results of testing with WatATP99 simulation data, the proposed algorithm demonstrated more rapid and reliable performance.

The electrical properties of pig internal organs including lung, liver, heart, kidney, blood, stomach, and small intestine are measured using an open-ended coaxial probe and an improved virtual transmission-line model. The measured complex permittivities of the pig organs are compared with the given values of the corresponding human organs. A similarity between these values is confirmed. For organs such as lung, liver, heart, and kidney that have regular texture and contents, the complex permittivities are almost identical to those of the corresponding human organs. The complex permittivities of human and pig blood are also very close in value. However, relatively large deviations are observed for the cases of stomach and small intestine because the internal contents of these organs significantly affect the measured electrical properties.

The nondestructive internal quality evaluation of agricultural products has been strongly required from the needs for individual inspection. Recently, the ultrasonic wave has been considered as a solution fur this problem, and an ultrasonic system was constructed for the ultrasonic NDE of fruits and vegetables in our previous work. In this paper, the practical applicability of our ultrasonic system is tested fur the inspection of internal defects (central cavity) in Atlantic potato. Sound speed and RMS of transmitted ultrasonic wave signal were measured and classification algorithm using 2 dimensional stochastic analysis. was presented. Experimental results showed greater value of sound speed and RMS (root mean square) of transmitted signal in normal samples than in abnormal samples with cavity. Also a stochastic method to distinguish normal and abnormal showed fault detection rate less than 5%.

Cushing syndrome (CS) is rare in pregnancy, and few cases have been reported to date. Women with untreated CS rarely become pregnant because of the ovulatory dysfunction induced by hypercortisolism. It is difficult to diagnose CS in pregnancy because of its very low incidence, the overlap between the clinical signs of hypercortisolism and the physiological changes that occur during pregnancy and the changes in hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis activity that occur during pregnancy and limit the value of standard diagnostic testing. However, CS in pregnancy is associated with poor maternal and fetal outcomes; therefore, its early diagnosis and treatment are important. Here, we report two patients with CS that was not diagnosed during pregnancy, in whom maternal and fetal morbidity developed because of hypercortisolism.

In this study, design of an intuitive internal resistance diagnostic device is to diagnose the residual capacity and aging of the battery regardless of the model and the internal protocol of the waste battery through the method of measuring the internal resistance of a waste battery. In this paper, charging and discharging were continuously performed with 2A charging and 5A discharging in order to secure data on impedance changes that may occur in the charging and discharging process of various methods. As a result of the final experiment, it was confirmed that the impedance change occurred during charging and discharging, and the amount of change increased as the charging/discharging C-rate increased. In addition, it was confirmed that the waste battery aged or abnormal cell had a large change in the impedance value.
