목적 : TF와 MIBI는 비슷한 성질을 가지고 있다고 보고되고 있는데 본 연구에서는 부하-휴식 1일 영상법을 이용한 심근관류 SPECT에서 TF와 MIBI의 관동맥질환 진단율을 비교해보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 1996년 1월부터 6월 사이에 심근관류 SPECT과 관동맥조영술을 1개월 이내에 검사받은 160명을 대상으로 하였는데 이 중 115예에서 TF를 사용했고, 45예에서 MIBI를 사용했다. 결과: 양군간에 연령, 관동맥질환의 임상양상과 병변이 있는 분지의 차이는 없었다. 환자별로 보았을 때 관동맥질환 예민도는 TF, MIBI군에서 각각 92, 93%였고, 특이도는 36, 30%로 차이를 보이지 않았으며, 각 분지별 관동맥질환 진단율도 양 군간에 차이가 얼었다. 결론: 이 연구에서는 높은 예민도에 비해 특이도가 현저히 낮았는데 이는 관동맥조영술 대상환자의 선택에 있어 심근관류 SPECT소견이 정상인 환자는 선택되지 않는 환자선택 바이어스에 의한 것으로 보였다. 결론적으로, TF와 MIBI 어떤 것을 사용하더라도 관동맥질환을 매우 민감하게 진단할 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.

Background: Butaphosphan (BTP) has recently been introduced into the Korean aquaculture sector as a stressattenuating agent. In this study, a sensitive chemical analytical method was established for the detection of BTP in the olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) tissues. Methods: Utilizing a method employing liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), detection sensitivity, specificity, and precision were satisfactorily established. Temporal changes in the BTP plasma and muscle concentrations were assessed after a single intramuscular injection of BTP (50 and 150 mg/kg) to the olive flounder maintained at 13 ℃ or 22 ℃. Results: High BTP plasma levels were achieved immediately after the injection, and the drug was rapidly eliminated. Additionally, plasma BTP levels were markedly dependent on the elimination rate, which, in turn, seemed dependent on the water temperature, with the drug elimination half-life and mean residence time significantly shorter at 22 ℃ than 13 ℃. Overall, muscle BTP levels were markedly lower than the plasma levels. Notably, muscle levels were not influenced by water temperatures. Muscle BTP concentrations were used to estimate the necessary withdrawal period for drugs used in food fish, with BTP levels maintained far below the possible hazardous limit. Conclusions: In conclusion, the established LC-MS/MS method can be used for BTP residue detection with high sensitivity and reproducibility.

Artificial neural networks (ANN) have been the focus of several studies when it comes to evaluating the pile's bearing capacity. Nonetheless, the principal drawbacks of employing this method are the sluggish rate of convergence and the constraints of ANN in locating global minima. The current work aimed to build four ANN-based prediction models enhanced with methods from the black hole algorithm (BHA), league championship algorithm (LCA), shuffled complex evolution (SCE), and symbiotic organisms search (SOS) to estimate the carrying capacity of piles in cold climates. To provide the crucial dataset required to build the model, fifty-eight concrete pile experiments were conducted. The pile geometrical properties, internal friction angle 𝛗 shaft, internal friction angle 𝛗 tip, pile length, pile area, and vertical effective stress were established as the network inputs, and the BHA, LCA, SCE, and SOS-based ANN models were set up to provide the pile bearing capacity as the output. Following a sensitivity analysis to determine the optimal BHA, LCA, SCE, and SOS parameters and a train and test procedure to determine the optimal network architecture or the number of hidden nodes, the best prediction approach was selected. The outcomes show a good agreement between the measured bearing capabilities and the pile bearing capacities forecasted by SCE-MLP. The testing dataset's respective mean square error and coefficient of determination, which are 0.91846 and 391.1539, indicate that using the SCE-MLP approach as a practical, efficient, and highly reliable technique to forecast the pile's bearing capacity is advantageous.

In this study, the computational method is presented to simulate the hemodynamics of the patients after the Fontan procedure. The short-term feedback control models are implemented to assess the hemodynamic responses of the patients exposed to the stresses such as gravitational effect or hemorrhage. To construct the base line of the Fontan model, we assume an increase in venous tone, in heart rates, and in systemic resistance that are based on the clinical observations. For the verification of the present method we simulate the LBNP (lower body negative pressure) test for the normal and the Fontan model and we compare these with experimental data. Computational results show that the diastolic ABP(arterial blood pressure) increases but the systolic ABP decreases during LBNP. The increase in heart rate is due to the control system activated by the decreased mean ABP and CVP(central venous pressure). In case of the Fontan model, the increased venous tone is the reason of the diminished CVP change during LBNP. We also simulate 20% hemorrhage stress to the patient after the Fontan procedure and these results are compared with the experimental and the existing computational one. Computational results on the hemodynamics of patients after the Fontan procedure show that the mean ABP and cardiac output decrease. Heart rate and systemic resistance increase to compensate for the decrease in ABP. The sensitivity analysis according to the conduit resistance is also presented to delineate the effects of the local blood flow resistance. The cardiac output decreases according to the increase of the conduit resistance. The 50% increase in the conduit resistance causes about 3% decrease of cardiac output.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate factors influencing dysmenorrhea in middle school girls and to analyze the differences in dysmenorrhea according to personal factors of the subjects. Methods: This study was conducted from March 22 to April 2, 2010. The subjects of the study were 572 girls who attended three middle schools in Seoul and experienced dysmenorrheal. All were surveyed using the same questionnaire. Data were analyzed by the SPSS/WIN 12.0 program and included descriptive statistics, ANOVA and multiple regression analysis. Results: 1) The mean age of the subjects was 13.53 years, and the mean age of first menstruation (menarche) was 11.94 years. The number of days between the onset of menstrual cycles was 30.01 days. Most of the respondents had irregular menstrual cycles and menstrual periods lasting 3 to 7 days long. 2) Chief menstrual pains were lower abdominal and back pain. Subjects reported experiencing severe lower abdominal and/or back pain, most commonly on the second day of menstruation. The average score of menstrual discomfort was over 60 points (63%). The average score per 6 points of dysmenorrhea was as follows: fatigue (3.48), sensitivity (3.27), disability of movement (3.27), napping or lying down (2.98), mood swings (2.95), interference with studies (2.87). 3) Individual subject characteristics influencing the onset of dysmenorrhea were as follows: high stress levels, being in poor health, having an irregular diet, being younger and having longer menstrual periods than most other subjects. Conclusion: During puberty, girls with earlier menarche complained of physical and emotional discomfort, and irregular menstrual periods. Therefore, we need to explain overall menstrual characteristics and individual differences in the occurrence of dysmenorrhea, in health education programs.

Thirty-one patients with coronary artery disease and twenty-sir normal subjects underwent $^{99m}Tc-GBPS$ before and after coronary vasodilatation was induced by dipyridamle 0.54 mg/kg given IV over 4 min. LVEF, ${\Delta}EF$ and regional wall motion by phase analysis were measured during rest and dipyridamole infusion. The results were as follows: 1) Mean LVEF of normal subjects was significantly higher than that of MI group (p=0.001), but similar to that of angina group during rest. Among MI group, mean LVEF of anterior MI group was significantly lower than that of inferior MI group during rest (p=0.024). 2) The normal subjects had a significaat increase in mean LVEF during dipyridamole infusion $(+12{\pm}3.8)$, while the CAD group had no increase $(+2{\pm}5.0)$ (p<0.001). If an increase of LVEF during stress is less than 5%, it suggests an abnormality. The sensitivity and specificity of LVEF changes after dipyridamole infusion were 81%, 96%, respectively. 3) With phase analysis, LV mean phase angle of normal subjects and CAD patients was $143{\pm}20.5^{\circ},\;132{\pm}20.6^{\circ}$ respectively, durign rest (p=0.049). But an ncrease of LV mean phase angle during dipyridamole infusion in these two groups was not significantly different. Dipyridamole infusion did not affect standard deviation and FWHM of phase angle. 4) Regional wall motion was abnormal in 5 patients (16%) during dipyridamole infusion. 5) Side effects with dipyridamole infusion include; headache, angina pain, chest discomfirt, nausea, weakness sense. In conclusion, dipyridamole GBPS might be useful in detection and follow up of CAD.

목적: 운동부하 심전도검사에 나타나는 ST-분절의 하강은 운동부하의 정도에 영향을 받는다. 그러나 운동부하의 정도가 운동부하 심근관류영상의 관동맥 질환 진단능에 미치는 영향은 보고자마다 달라 아직도 논란이 되고있다. 본 연구는 운동부하의 정도가 심근관류 영상의 관상동맥 질환 진단능에 미치는 영향을 규명하고자 시행하였다. 대상 및 방법: 111명(남자 73명, 여자 38명, 평균연령: 56세)의 안정된 환자를 대상으로 운동부하검사와 함께 Tc-99m MIBI를 이용한 심근관류 스캔을 실시하고 3개월 이내에 관상동맥촬영술을 실시하였다. 운동부하의 정도는 운동시 최대 예측 심박수의 85%에 도달했는가를 기준으로 하고, 운동심전도 소견을 첨가하여 4군으로 구분하고 각각의 군에서의 진단능을 비교하였다. 결과: 1) Tc-99m MIBI 심근관류스캔의 예민도와 특이도는 심전도검사의 소견이나 심박수의 증가정도에 따른 차이는 없었다. 2) 운동부하 Tc-99m MIBI SPECT의 예민도는 87%, 특이도는 79%였고 전례를 대상으로 한 경우 운동부하 심전도는 예민도 55%, 특이도 74%로서 예민도는 SPECT가 운동부하 심전도보다 유의하게 높았으며 특이도는 유의한 차이는 없었으나 SPECT가 더 높은 경향을 보였다. 3) 최대 예측 심박수의 85% 이상의 운동량에 도달한 경우의 관동맥 질환 진단 예민도는 85% 이하의 운동량에 도달한 군과 유사하였다(88% vs 87%, p=NS). 4) 운동부하 정도가 적었으나 조기에 심전도 검사상 양성 소견을 보인 경우에는 다혈관 질환에서 개개 혈관의 협착 진단능은 낮은 경향을 나타내었다. 결론: 이상의 결과로 볼 때 운동부하 Tc-99m MIBI 심근관류 스캔의 관동맥 협착 진단능은 운동부하 심전도검사보다 높았고, 답차를 이용한 증상 제한적 운동부하검사에서 심박동수의 증가로 평가란 운동 정도가 운동 목표량에 도달하지 않아도 진단능이 감소되지 않음을 알 수 있었다.

The strength behaviors of Fiber Reinforced Plastics (FRP) Composites can be greatly influenced by the properties of constitutive materials, the laminate structures, and load conditions etc, accompanied by many uncertainty factors. So the reliability study on FRP is an important subject of research. Many achievements have been made in reliability studies based on the probability theory, but little has been done on the roles played by fuzzy variables. In this paper, a fuzzy reliability model for FRP laminates is established first, in which the loads are considered as random variables and the strengths as fuzzy variables. Then a numerical model is developed to assess the fuzzy reliability. The Monte Carlo simulation method is utilized to compute the reliability of laminas under the maximum stress criterion. In the second part of this paper, a generalized fuzzy reliability model (GFRM) is proposed. By virtue of the fact that there may exist a series of states between the failure state and the function state, a fuzzy assumption for the structure state together with the probabilistic assumption for strength parameters is adopted to construct the GFRM of composite materials. By defining a generalized limit state function, the problem is converted to the conventional reliability formula that enables the first-order reliability method (FORM) applicable in calculating the reliability index. Several examples are worked out to show the validity of the models and the efficiency of the methods proposed in this paper. The parameter sensitivity analysis shows that some of the mean values of the strength parameters have great influence on the laminated composites' reliability. The differences resulting from the application of different failure criteria and different fuzzy assumptions are also discussed. It is concluded that the GFRM is feasible to use, and can provide an effective and synthetic method to evaluate the reliability of a system with different types of uncertainty factors.
