목 적 : 레닌-안지오텐신계가 혈압 조절에 있어서 핵심적인 역할을 한다는 것은 이미 잘 알려진 사실이며, 이 체계의 한 구성 요소인 angiotensinogen을 암호화하는 유전자가 고혈압의 유전적 감수성을 결정하고 심혈관계 합병증 발생에 중요한 역할을 할 것으로 생각된다. 본 연구의 목적은 고혈압 청소년에서 angiotensinogen 유전자 다형을 분석하고, 특정 유전자형이 심혈관계 합병증의 예측 인자가 될 수 있는지를 알아보고자 하였다. 방 법 : 16세에서 17세 사이의 수축기 혈압 140 mmHg 이상이거나 이완기 혈압 90 mmHg 이상인 40명의 고혈압 청소년과 57명의 정상 청소년을 대상으로 하였다. 비만도, 체질량지수를 측정하였고, 안정된 상태에서 수축기, 이완기 혈압을 측정하였다. 호모시스테인, 인슐린, 레닌, 알도스테론, 안지오텐신 전환 효소(angiotensin convering enzyme, ACE)를 측정하였고, polymerase chain reaction (PCR)을 이용하여 angiotensinogen (M235T) 유전자형을 분석하였다. 경부 초음파로 경동맥 내중막 두께와 경동맥 직경을 측정하였고, 이를 이용하여 경동맥의 유순도와 신전도를 구하였다. VP-1000을 이용하여 pulse wave velocity (PWV)와 ankle-brachial index (ABI)를 측정하였다. 유전자 다형별로 각 계측치를 비교, 분석하였다. 결 과 : Angiotensinogen 유전자 다형 분석에서 T/T 군 25명(62.5%), M/T 군 14명(35%), M/M 군 1명(2.5%)로 정상 청소년과 유의한 빈도의 차이가 없었다. 고혈압군에서 인슐린, 레닌, 체질량지수, 비만도에서 세 유전형군 간의 유의한 차이가 나타났으나, 경동맥 내중막 두께와 직경, 신전도, 유순도, PWV, ABI에서는 세군 간의 유의한 차이는 없었다. 결 론 : Angiotensinogen의 특정 유전자 다형과 심혈관계 합병증간의 유의한 연관성은 없었으나, 본 연구의 고혈압 청소년 대상이 적었으므로 더 많은 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

담관 결석은 동통뿐만 아니라 황달이나 담도염 또는 췌장염 등을 유발할 수 있다. 결석에 대한 내시경적 제거가 실패할 경우 체외충격파쇄석술이 요구될 수 있는데, 이 논문은 담관 결석환자에 대한 체외충격파쇄석술 적용에 있어 보다 더 적절한 선택 기준을 정하는데 도움을 주기 위함이다. 총담관 결석 환자 중 기계적 쇄석술을 포함한 내시경적 제거에 실패한 46명이 체외충격파쇄석술을 받았다. 46명 모두 체외충격파쇄석술 전에 내시경적 유두괄약근 절개술을 받았으며, 경비담도배액관의 삽입이 이루어 졌다. 사용된 쇄석기는 초음파 유도하에 결석을 포착하는 시스템으로 spark-gap type이였다. 쇄석 후 추가적인 내시경적 제거술이 이루어 졌으며, 결석이 완전 제거된 경우는 89.1%(41/46)였으며, 자연 배출된 경우는 6.5%였다. 쇄석 후 결석제거율은 결석의 수(단일: 82.8%, 둘-셋: 100%, 넷 이상: 100%)와 크기(33 mm 미만: 92.9%, 33 mm 이상: 83.3%)에서는 큰 차이가 없었으나, 결석들의 장축 길이 합과 결석이 위치하지 않는 부분의 총담관 길이 합을 비교하였을 때 완전 제거된 경우와 그렇지 않은 경우의 비가 1:1.4와 1:1.1, 그리고 가장 큰 결석의 직경과 결석하방의 총담관 직경을 비교한 경우는 그 비가 1:0.9와 1:0.4로 의미 있는 차이를 보였다. 결론적으로, 결석의 수나 크기보다는 총담관 내에 분쇄된 결석이 충분히 움직여 바스켓으로 포획될 수 있는 공간이 있을 경우에 체외충격파쇄석술 적용이 상당히 유용하나 그렇지 않은 경우는 경피적 담도경을 이용한 제거가 유용할 것으로 보인다.

Purpose : This study aims to investigate into the change in muscle power, pain and muscle tension upon application of extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) and ultrasound (US) at trigger point (TrP) of the Scapular inter angle. Methods : In total of 24 human subjects that experience pain upon stimulation at the scapular inter angle were recruited. They were divided into three groups: control, ESWT and US group. Each group was subjected to appropriate stimulation three times per week for four weeks except the control group which had no restrictions in lifestyle. The ESWT group was subjected to Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy with a 2 $cm^2$ head, 20 times at speed of application of 60 pulses/min and depth of intrusion of 25 mm Whereas the US group was subject to Ultra sound therapy with 1$cm^2$ head, 1 MHz in frequency, 1.5 W/$cm^2$ of strength with five minutes of continuous application. Measurements were performed immediately prior to and at the end of the experiment. Results : There was no statistical significance in the change in muscle tension and muscle power as well as the difference between both groups before and after the experiment. VAS and VRS, all of which indicates changes in pain level, had statistically significant differences between them in pretest posttest comparisons. However, ESWT was superior to US in terms of decreasing muscle tension and pain while increasing muscle power. Conclusion : This study has made it evident that ESWT is far more reasonable to apply to TrP.

Mechanism of a periodic oscillation of shock-induced combustion over a two- dimensional wedges and axi-symmetric cones were investigated through a series of numerical simulations at off-attaching condition of oblique detonation waves(ODW). A same computational domain over 40 degree half-angle was considered for two-dimensional and axi-symmetric shock-induced combustion phenomena. For two-dimensional shock-induced combustion, a 2H2+02+17N2 mixture was considered at Mach number was 5.85with initial temperature 292 K and initial pressureof 12 KPa. The Rankine-Hugoniot relation has solution of attached waves at this condition. For axi-symmetric shock-induced combustion, a H2+2O2+2Ar mixture was considered at Mach number was 5.0 with initial temperature 288 K and initial pressure of 200 mmHg. The flow conditions were based on the conditions of similar experiments and numerical studies.[1, 3]Numerical simulation was carried out with a compressible fluid dynamics code with a detailed hydrogen-oxygen combustion mechanism.[4, 5] A series of calculations were carried out by changing the fluid dynamic time scale. The length wedge is varied as a simplest way of changing the fluid dynamic time scale. Result reveals that there is a chemical kinetic limit of the detached overdriven detonation wave, in addition to the theoretical limit predicted by Rankine-Hugoniot theory with equilibrium chemistry. At the off-attaching condition of ODW the shock and reaction waves still attach at a wedge as a periodically oscillating oblique shock-induced combustion, if the Rankine-Hugoniot limit of detachment isbut the chemical kinetic limit is not.Mechanism of the periodic oscillation is considered as interactions between shock and reaction waves coupled with chemical kinetic effects. There were various regimes of the periodicmotion depending on the fluid dynamic time scales. The difference between the two-dimensional and axi-symmetric simulations were distinct because the flow path is parallel and uniform behind the oblique shock waves, but is not behind the conical shock waves. The shock-induced combustion behind the conical shockwaves showed much more violent and irregular characteristics.From the investigation of characteristic chemical time, condition of the periodic instability is identified as follows; at the detaching condition of Rankine-Hugoniot theory, (1) flow residence time is smaller than the chemical characteristic time, behind the detached shock wave with heat addition, (2) flow residence time should be greater than the chemical characteristic time, behind an oblique shock wave without heat addition.

본 연구에서는 초음파를 이용하여 피부 혈관에서 그 위치에 대한 혈류 신호정보를 얻을 수 있는 펄스파(pulsed wave) 시스템을 이 분야에 응용하기 위한 가능성을 고찰하였다. 20MHz의 변환자로 수신된 신호들은 시간 영역에서 서로 비교하여 편이량을 cross-correlation방법을 사용하여 혈류속도를 구하였다. 피부의 매우 작은 혈관에서 혈류속도 거출시 발생되는 문제점에 대해 in-vitro와 in-vivo 실험을 통해서 이 방법의 효용성을 보이고 그 문제점에 대한 해결 방법을 제시한다. 시간 편이량 측정은 cross-correlation방법에 의해 정규화된 계수에서 최대점을 찾는 것이며 송신주기에 따라 반사된 수신 신호에서부터 cross-correlation방법을 사용하여 속도를 구한다. In-패패 실험을 통해 작은 튜브 내의 깊이에 대한 속도 정보를 주는 속도 profile과 이론적으로 계산된 속도 rpofile을 비교하였으며 토끼 귀 부분의 auriculares caudales에서 소동맥과 소정맥에 대한 혈류속도 profile을 구하였다. 수신 신호에서 진동에 의한 오차는 DFT를 사용하여 보정하였고 클루터 신호는 전체 수신 신호를 평균하여 하나의 기준 수신 신호를 정하여 이것에서 다른 수신 신호 값을 뺌으로써 감소시켰다.

A 6-year-old, spayed female, Maltese dog with tachypnea and dry cough was presented to Gyeongsang National University Veterinary Medical Teaching hospital. On physical examination, its respiration rate was 132 per minute. Decreased partial pressure of oxygen, partial pressure of carbon dioxide, and hyperlactatemia were found on arterial blood gas analysis. Its diastolic blood pressure was 80 mmHg. Auscultation revealed arrhythmia. Electrocardiogram revealed P pulmonale, P mitrale, and ventricular premature complexes. Thoracic radiographs revealed mild enlargement of both atrium and moderate enlargement of the left ventricular. There was also a moderate alveolar pattern in the right and caudal part of the left cranial lung lobe. Two-dimensional echocardiography showed enlargement of generalized four chambers without remarkable findings of valvular degeneration. M-mode echocardiography showed decreased left ventricular fractional shortening and enlarged left ventricular internal diameter at both end-systolic and end-diastolic. Color-flow Doppler imaging revealed eccentric turbulent flow starting below the left ventricular outflow tract and extending into the left atrium during systole. Spectral Doppler recordings revealed a high velocity flow through the mitral, tricuspid, aorta, and pulmonic regurgitation. Restrictive transmitral flow revealed high E-wave velocity, short E-wave deceleration time, and reduced A-wave velocity. There was also low ejection velocity thorough left ventricular out tract flow. Based on echocardiographic examination, dilated cardiomyopathy was the tentative diagnosis. The dog was medicated with inotropes, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor, and diuretics. At the 10-day following-up, the dog died suddenly. This report describes echocardiographic diagnosis and prognosis of dilated cardiomyopathy rarely reported in small breed dogs.

In this paper, we studied the properties of small-size disk-type ultrasonic motor using travelling wave for the application to the precise control robotic joint motor and fabricated it. The diameter of the ultrasonic motor fabricated was 13mm. Also, the piezoelectric vibrator was constructed by piezoelectric ceramic and elastic material. The piezoelectric ceramic was composed to PZ-PT-PMN which was shown the high electromechanical stability under high vibration level and stainless steel was used as the elastic material in which configuration was disk-type. To conform the capability of application to robotic motor, we measured the change of rotational speed according to applied voltage and applied frequency. As the results, the small-size disk-type ultrasonic motor was able to fabricate, and the revolution speed was 350 [rpm] when input voltage was 55 [Vrms] and applied frequency 160.4 [kHz] under pre-load.

The spray characteristics of liquid jet minted in subsonic cross-flow were investigated numerically and experimentally. The behaviors of column, penetration and breakup of plain liquid jet in non-swirling cross-flow of air have been studied. Numerical and physical models are based on a modified KIVAII code. The primary atomization is represented by a wave model based on the KH(Kelvin-Helmholtz) instability that is generated by a high interface relative velocity between the liquid and gas flows. CCD camera has been utilized in oder to capture the spray trajectory. The nozzle diameter was 0.5 mm and its L/D ratios were between 1 and 5. Numerical and experimental results indicate that the breakup point is delayed by increasing gas momentum ratio, the penetration decreases by increasing Weber number and the turbulent or nonturbulent liquid jet is obtained at different L/D ratio.

Ultrasonic travel-times obtained with the LCR ultrasonic technique have shown an ability to distinguish among three aluminum plates. The 244$\times$150mm thick, but differ in heat treatment. One is fully annealed, the second is quenched and then tempered, and the third is heat-treated to T651 plate, as received plate. Travel-times were obtained at four locations on each side of all plates. The data for both sides of each plate clearly are in very close agreement except location 1 of each plate. In order to show travel-time variation throughout the plate areas, the average travel-time for both sides of each plate were calculated. For Plate 1, the travel-time data were the highest and the data of Plate, the travel-time data were the highest and the data of Plate 2 were upper than Plate 3. Finally, the residual stresses for each plate were measured by X-ray diffraction method. The results showed a good relation. These preliminary results indicate that the LCR Ultrasonic Technique may be not only further developed for use in quality control in the manufacture of rolled aluminum plates but also industry.
