서론: 최근 노년층에서 뇌졸중 발병률이 증가하고 있다. 현재 뇌졸중 치료제 및 방법이 많이 개발되어 있으나 치료 후에도 후유증 등이 많이 남게 된다. 그래서 아직도 많은 과학자나 임상 의사들이 이를 치료하기 위한 약물 및 방법을 연구하고 있는 실정이다. 많은 연구 중 뇌졸중 치료 연구를 위한 표준화된 실험 동물연구는 드물며, 표준화된 Nylon thread를 이용한 중대뇌동맥 폐쇄모델(MCAO, middle cerebral artery occlusion)의 성공률에 대한 연구는 거의 없다 방법: 본연구는 $0.18{\pm}0.02mm$의 지름을 가진 5-0 Nylon thread를 중대뇌동맥에 삽입하였다. 60분 동안 삽입한 후에 봉합해 놓았던 부위를 다시 절개하여 Nylon thread를 빼내고, 막았던 혈관의 매듭을 풀어주어, 다시 혈액이 공급되게 하였다. 그로부터 23시간 후에 뇌를 내어 1mm 두께로 자른 후 1.5% TTC(2',3',5'-triphenyl-tetrazolium chloride)로 15분간 염색하고, 4% PFA(paraformaldehyde)로 15분 동안 고정하였다. 결과: Nylon thread를 삽입하여, MCA occlusion 50마리, ICA occlusion 14마리, 제대로 된 MCAO model보다 좀 더 깊게 들어간 distal MCAO model 36마리, 너무 깊은 MCA나 ACA까지 들어가서 상보적인 괴사를 나타내는 occlusion model 1마리, 그리고 경색이 일어나지 않은 마우스 50마리를 확인하였다. 결론: 이에 본 연구에서는 Nylon Thread를 생쥐의 무게에 따라 32~36g 인 생쥐는 9mm로 삽입하여주고, 37~40g인 생쥐는 9mm+0.5mm의 깊이로 삽입하여서 1hr의 occlusion과 23hr의 reperfusion을 주어 생쥐를 TTC 염색을 통하여 괴사가 일어난 부분을 확인하였고, 생쥐에서 가역적인 뇌혈관 경색으로 151말중 101마리에서 뇌경색을 유도 할 수 있었다(66.9%).

Background: Radio-telemetry is a useful method to investigate the spatial ecology of species in the wild, by tracking the signal of a transmitter attached to an individual. The method of attaching a transmitter to a snake is representatively divided into surgical implantation, and external attachment, which latter is often used in small snake species. Results: In this study, we evaluated and compared the utility of two external attachment methods, the nylon thread method and the tape method, applied to a small grassland snake species of approximately 50 cm snout-vent length, the Slender racer (Orientocoluber spinalis), on an island in the Republic of Korea. The nylon thread method and the tape method were applied to four and five individuals, and radio-tracked for an average of eight and eleven days, respectively. The nylon thread method caused individual injury and disturbed their movement, while using the tape method, the transmitter package sometimes dropped off, but no injury or movement problems occurred. Conclusions: Considering that poor understanding of how to attach the transmitter makes it difficult to investigate the spatial ecology of small snake species, the tape method, evaluated in this study, could be applied to attach a transmitter and to study spatial ecology of such snakes.

After skin grafting, to prevent hematoma or seroma collection at the graft site, a tie-over dressing has been commonly used. However, although the conventional tie-over dressing by suture is a useful method for securing a graft site, refixation is difficult when repeated tie-over dressing is needed. Therefore, we recommend a redoable tie-over dressing technique with multiple loops threads and connecting silk threads. After the raw surface of each of our cases was covered with a skin graft, multiple loop silk thread attached with nylon at the skin graft margin. We applied the ointment gauze and wet cotton/fluffy gauze over the skin graft, then fixed the dressing by connecting cross-counter multiple loop thread with connecting silk threads. When we opened the tie-over dressing by cutting the connecting silk threads, we repeated the tie-over dressing with the same method. The skin graft was taken successfully without hematoma or seroma collection or any other complications. In conclusion, we report a novel tie-over dressing enabling simple fixation of the dressing to maintain proper tension for wounds that require repetitive fixation. Further, with this reliable method, the skin grafts were well taken.

Currently, e-textile market is rapidly expanding and the emerging area of e-textiles requires electrically conductive threads for diverse applications, including wearable innovative e-textiles that can transmit/receive and display data with a variety of functions. This study introduces hybrid nano-structures which may help increase the conductivity of the textile threads for use in wearable and flexible smart apparels. For this aim, Ag was selected as a conductive material, and yarn treatment was implemented where silver nanowire (AgNW) and graphene flake (GF) hybrid structures overcome the limitations of the AgNW alone. The yarn treatment includes several treatment conditions, e.g., annealing temperature, annealing time, binder material such as polyurethane (PU), coating time, in order to search for the optimum method to form stable conductive nano-scale composite materials as thin film on the surface of textile yarns. Treatedyarns showed improved electrical resistance readings. The functionality of the spandex yarn as a stretchable conductive thread was also demonstrated. When the yarn specimens were treated with colloid of AgNW/GF, relatively good electrical conductivity value was obtained. During the extension and recovery cycles of the treated yarns, the initial resistance values did not deteriorate significantly, since the network of nanowire structure with the support of GF and polyurethane stayed flexible and stable. Through this research, it was found that when one-dimensional structure of AgNW and two-dimensional structure of GF were mixed as colloids and treated on the surface of textile yarns, flexible and stretchable electrical conductor could be formed.
