공업실험에서는 주효과의 검정력을 높일 목적으로 교호작용효과에 대한 예비검정의 결과가 유의하지 않은 경우에, 이 효과를 오차항으로 풀링한 후에 주효과의 유의성을 검정하는 때때로 풀링 (Sometimes pooling)의 분석 방법을 사용한다. 이 소고에서는 때때로 풀링의 규칙에 관한 참고문헌의 내용을 정리하고, 블록효과가 오차항으로 풀링되었다는 사실이 알려 졌을 때에 독립표본에 의한 모평균의 차이에 대한 95% 신뢰구간의 길이가 쌍체비교에 의한 신뢰구간의 길이보다 짧을 확률을 다양한 예비검정의 유의수준 ${\alpha}_1$값과 충분한 검정력이 보장되지 않은 블록의 크기인 $2{\leq}n{\leq}13$ 범위에서 살펴보았는데, 그 결과는 풀링한 경우에 주효과에 대한 검정력이 높아진다는 사실을 뒷받침하고 있다.

Objective: The objective of this study was to determine the five-year survival among patients with cervical cancer treated in Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia. Methods: One hundred and twenty cervical cancer patients diagnosed between $1^{st}$ July 1995 and $30^{th}$ June 2007 were identified. Data were obtained from medical records. The survival probability was determined using the Kaplan-Meier method and the log-rank test was applied to compare the survival distribution between groups. Results: The overall five-year survival was 39.7% [95%CI (Confidence Interval): 30.7, 51.3] with a median survival time of 40.8 (95%CI: 34.0, 62.0) months. The log-rank test showed that there were survival differences between the groups for the following variables: stage at diagnosis (p=0.005); and primary treatment (p=0.0242). Patients who were diagnosed at the latest stage (III-IV) were found to have the lowest survival, 18.4% (95%CI: 6.75, 50.1), compared to stage I and II where the five-year survival was 54.7% (95%CI: 38.7, 77.2) and 40.8% (95%CI: 27.7, 60.3), respectively. The five-year survival was higher in patients who received surgery [52.6% (95%CI: 37.5, 73.6)] as a primary treatment compared to the non-surgical group [33.3% (95%CI: 22.9, 48.4)]. Conclusion: The five-year survival of cervical cancer patients in this study was low. The survival of those diagnosed at an advanced stage was low compared to early stages. In addition, those who underwent surgery had higher survival than those who had no surgery for primary treatment.

본 논문에서는 광 버스트 스위칭 네트워크의 코어 노드에 그룹 스케줄링 알고리즘을 적용하여, 전산 모의실험을 통해 그 성능을 측정하였다. 성능 평가를 위해, 다채널 입출력 포트를 갖는 코어 노드에 대하여, 즉시 스케줄링 방식과 비교하였다. 그룹 스케줄링은 노드에 먼저 도착하는 버스트 헤더 패킷의 정보를 이용하여 일정한 시간 창에 스케줄링 될 버스트들을 스케줄링하기 때문에, 전산 모의실험 결과 그룹 스케줄링 방식이 즉시 스케줄링 방식보다 버스트 손실 확률과 채널 이용률이 모두 개선되었으며 부하의 증가에 따라 차이가 더욱 커졌다. 또한, 출력포트에 파장 변환기를 사용한 경우에 대해서도 성능을 측정하였다. 이 경우에는, 그룹 스케줄링 방식과 즉시 스케줄링 방식의 버스트 손실 확률과 채널 이용률 모두 부하 범위 0.1-0.9에서 서로 비슷하게 나타났으나. 파장 변환기의 사용 빈도는 즉시 스케줄링이 그룹 스케줄링보다 약 7배 이상으로 높아, 그룹 스케줄링 방식을 사용하면 보다 경제적인 노드 구조를 구현할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

위상배열 안테나 레이다에서는 기계적 관성에 관계없이 레이다 빔의 신속한 조향이 가능하기 때문에 측정을 원하는 목표와 그 목표에 대한 측정시간, 측정표본속도를 선택적으로 취할 수 있게 된다. 이 논문에서는 주어진 측정 파라미터에 대해 이러한 위상배열 레이다 시스템을 위한 3차원 가변 포본화 빈도 추적 필터를 설계했다. 이 추적 필터는 추적목표의 탐지확률을 적정한 값 이상으로 유지하기 위해서 목표의 각도 예측오차를 안테나 빔 폭의 일정한 비율이내로 줄일 수 있어야 한다. 여기서 설계한 추적 필터는 이러한 요구를 만족하는 범위에서 표본화 빈도를 낮출 수 있도록 목표까지의 거리와 기동에 따라 표본화 빈도를 선택하게 된다. 이 추적 필터설계의 타당성은 여러가지 기동목표에 대한 수치실험을 통해 확인했다.

Magnetocardiography(MCG) has been proposed as a novel and non-invasive diagnostic tool for the detection of cardiac electrical abnormality associated with myocardial ischemia. In our previous study, we have proposed a new classification method of MCG parameters, based on the different populations of the parameters between coronary artery disease(CAD) patients, symptomatic patients and healthy volunteers. We used four parameters, representing the directional changes of the electrical activity in the period of an R-ST-T interval. In patients with chest pain and without ST-segment elevation, who were selected consecutively from all patients admitted to the hospital in 2004, the patients with CAD could be classified with a higher sensitivity than conventional methods, showing that the proposed method can be useful for the diagnosis of CAD with MCG. In this study, we examined the validity of the algorithm with the prior probability distribution in diagnosis of new patients admitted to the hospital in 2005. In the results, presence of CAD could be found with sensitivity and specificity of 81.3% and 71.4%, respectively, in patients with chest pain and non-diagnostic ECG findings.

Objectives: Papillon-Lefèvre syndrome (PLS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder. These patients lose their teeth at a young age and are in need of prosthetic rehabilitation. The aim of this systematic review was to assess the success of dental implant placement in these patients. Materials and Methods: An electronic search was performed in PubMed Central, Scopus, and Web of Science using the keyword "Papillon-Lefèvre syndrome" AND "dental implant" OR "prosthodontics". Articles reporting implant placement in patients with PLS until July 2019 were included. Results: Assessment of the included 11 articles reporting 15 cases showed 136 implant placements in these patients. Implant failure occurred in 3 patients (20 implants). The peri-implantitis and failure rate was higher in the maxilla. Meta-analysis showed the probability of failure to be 7% (95% confidence interval [CI] 0%-31%) for maxillary implants and 2% (95% CI 0%-9%) for mandibular implants. The follow-up time ranged between 1 and 20 years. Healing after bone graft and implant placement in these patients was uneventful. Conclusion: Dental implants may be a viable treatment option for PLS patients. Implantation can help preserve alveolar bone if the patients' immunological and growing conditions are well-considered and proper oral hygiene and compliance with the maintenance program are continued.

Objective: This study aimed to determine the threshold of $anti-M{\ddot{u}}llerian$ hormone (AMH) as predictor of follicular growth failure in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients treated with clomiphene citrate (CC). Methods: Fifty female subjects with PCOS were recruited and divided into two groups based on successful and unsuccessful follicular growth. Related variables such as age, infertility duration, cigarette smoking, use of Moslem hijab, sunlight exposure, fiber intake, body mass index, waist circumference, AMH level, 25-hydroxy vitamin D level, and growth of dominant follicles were obtained, assessed, and statistically analyzed. Results: The AMH levels of patients with successful follicular growth were significantly lower (p= 0.001) than those with unsuccessful follicular growth ($6.10{\pm}3.52$ vs. $10.43{\pm}4.78ng/mL$). A higher volume of fiber intake was also observed in the successful follicular growth group compared to unsuccessful follicular growth group (p= 0.001). Our study found the probability of successful follicle growth was a function of AMH level and the amount of fiber intake, expressed as Y =-2.35+($-0.312{\times}AMH\;level$)+($0.464{\times}fiber\;intake$) (area under the curve, 0.88; 95% confidence interval, 0.79-0.98; p< 0.001). Conclusion: The optimal threshold of AMH level in predicting the failure of follicle growth in patients with PCOS treated with CC was 8.58 ng/mL.

Background: The seropositivity rate of hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs) antibodies is known to be ≥95% after hepatitis B virus vaccination during infancy. However, a low level or absence of anti-HBs in healthy children is discovered in many cases. Recent studies in adults reported that a reduced anti-HBs production rate is related to obesity. Purpose: To investigate whether body mass index (BMI) affects anti-HBs levels in healthy children following 3 serial dose vaccinations in infancy. Methods: We recruited 1,200 healthy volunteers aged 3, 5, 7, or 10 years from 4-day care centers and 4 elementary schools. All subjects completed a questionnaire including body weight, height, and vaccine type received. Levels of serum hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and anti-HBs in all subjects were analyzed using electrochemiluminescence immunoassay. The standardized scores (z score) for each sex and age were obtained using the lambda-mu-sigma method in the 2017 Korean National Growth Charts for children and adolescents. Results: Our subjects (n=1,200) comprised 750 males (62.5%) and 450 females (37.5%). The overall anti-HBs seropositivity rate was 57.9% (695 of 1,200). We identified significant differences in mean BMI values between seronegative and seropositive groups (17.45 vs. 16.62, respectively; P<0.001). The anti-HBs titer was significantly decreased as the BMI z score increased adjusting for age and sex (B=-15.725; standard error=5.494; P=0.004). The probability of anti-HBs seropositivity based on BMI z score was decreased to an OR of 0.820 after the control for confounding variables (95% confidence interval, 0.728-0.923; P=0.001). Conclusion: There was a significant association between anti-HBs titer and BMI z score after adjustment for age and sex. Our results indicate that BMI is a potential factor affecting anti-HBs titer in healthy children.
