연구목적: 만성 B형 간염의 간조직 소견은 진단 및 예후의 평가 뿐아니라 치료여부의 결정 및 치료효과의 평가를 위해서 중요하고, 이는 좀 더 객관적, 구체적, 포괄적으로 새롭게 분류할 필요성이 있다. 우리나라 소아의 만성 B형 간염의 빈도는 높을 것으로 추정되는데 아직 이에 대한 병리조직학적 고찰은 거의 없는 상태이다. 이에 저자들은 점수로 평가한 최근의 반정량적 분류 방법(Ludwig 분류법)을 전통적으로 이용되어온 De Groute의 분류법과 비교하여 연관성을 밝히고, 반정량적 분류법이 좀 더 객관적으로 예후를 예견하고 형태학적 변화를 감시하는 유용한 방법임을 소개하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 서울대학교병원 소아과에 입원하여, 간조직 생검을 받은 만성 B형 간염 환아 99명을 대상으로 병리조직 소견과 병록지 고찰을 시행하였다. B형 간염 표식자로는 HBsAg, anti-HBs, HBeAg, anti-HBe, anti-HBc(IgG, IgM), HDV를 방사면역측정(radioimmunoassay)을 이용하여 검사하였다. 간생검조직은 전통적인 De Groute의 병리조직학적 분류법과 병리조직학적 변화를 문맥강 및 문맥강 주변의 염증(Portal/Periportal activity), 간소엽 내 염증(Lobular activity), 섬유화(Fibrosis)로 나누어 각각의 정도를 0에서 4로 점수화(Numerical scoring)한 Ludwig의 체계에 따라 분류하였다. 두가지 분류법 간의 연관성과, 병리조직 소견에 따른 빈도, 연령 및 성별 분포, 임상적 특징, 생화학적 및 혈청학적 검사 소견을 비교 조사하였다. 또한 간세포암 5례는 따로 분류하여 임상적 고찰을 시행하였다. 결 과: 1) 총 99례 중 남아 83례, 여아 16례였고, 연령별 분포는 1년 5개월에서 16년 4개월까지였으며, 평균연령은 9.4세였다. 병리조직형별 연령 및 성별분포에는 차이가 없었다. 2) 병리조직형별 분포는 정상 조직 소견 2례, 만성 소엽성 간염 2례, 만성 지속성 간염 22례, 경도 만성 활동성 간염 40례, 중등도 만성 활동성 간염 19례, 고도 만성 활동성 간염 1례, 간경변을 동반한 만성 활동성 간염 7례, 간경변증 1례, 간세포암 5례였다. 두가지 분류법은 높은 연관성을 보였으나 간경화의 경우는 연관성이 떨어져서, 간조직내 염증과 섬유화는 따로 분리하여 평가하거나, 섬유화의 중량이 필요함을 알 수 있었다. 3) 간세포암을 제외한 94례 중 66례(70%)가 신체검사에서 우연히 발견된 경우였으며, 2례는 전신 부종이 주소로서 B형 간염과 관련된 막성 사구체 신염이 동반되어 있었다. 그 외는 비특이적인 간염증상을 주소로 내원하여 진단되었다. 내원시 임상 증상으로는 이피로성, 식욕부진, 오심, 구토, 복통, 복부팽만, 체중감소, 발열, 진한 소변색, 황달, 비출혈, 부종, 혈뇨 등이 있었고, 이학적 소견으로는 간장비대, 비장비대, 우측 상복부통이 있었다. 병리조직형별 임상증상, 이학적 소견 및 그 빈도에는 차이가 없었다. 4) 총 99례 중 가족력상 어머니에 B형 간염의 병력이 있는 경우가 54례, 아버지가 12례, 형제들의 경우가 25례 있었으며, 그 외의 동거 가족에서 가족력이 있는 경우는 17례 있었고, 가족력이 없는 경우는 28례였다. 가족 중 간경화가 있는 경우는 9례였고, 간세포암도 2례에서 있었다. 어머니가 만성 활동성 간염으로 사망한 례가 1례 있었고, 형제가 전격성 간염으로 사망한 경우도 1례 있었다. 병리조직형별 가족력의 차이는 없었다. 5) 간기능 검사소견을 보면, AST와 ALT의 평균은 각각 $151{\pm}158$ U/L, $215{\pm}221$ U/L이고, 병리조직형별로는 조직 염증소견이 심할수록 유의하게 높은 것을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 병리조직형별로 중복되는 부분이 많아 AST, ALT치로 조직형을 예측하는 것은 어려웠다. Ludwig의 분류와 간기능 검사치와의 관계를 보면, 혈청 알부민은 섬유화가 진행할수록 유의하게 감소하는 것을 관찰할 수 있었고, ALT, AST는 간조직내 염증 및 섬유화가 심할수록 유의하게 증가하는 것을 관찰하였다. 6) Prothrombin time은 조직형이 심할수록 유의하게 길어졌고, 특히 간경화가 진행될수록 나빠지는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. APTT(activated partial thromboplastin time)도 조직형이 심할수록 길어지는 것을 관찰할 수 있었으나, 통계적 유의성은 없었다. 반정량적 방법에 의한 분류와의 관계를 보면, Prothrombin time과 APTT는 간조직내 염증 및 섬유화가 심할수록 길어지는 것을 관찰하였으나, 통계적 유의성은 없었다. 7) IgM anti-HBc는 검사가 이루어진 80명 중 1명에서만 양성이었고, HDV는 검사가 이루어진 83명 중 양성인 경우는 한 례도 없었다. HBeAg은 간생검 당시 81례에서 양성이였고, 이 후 평균 $41.8{\pm}31.3$개월간의 추적 중에 HBeAg 음전을 보인 경우는 50례가 있었고, 1년 음전율은 37%였다. 병리조직형별로는 조직형이 심할수록 음전시까지의 기간이 짧은 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 8) 간세포암 5례의 남녀 분포는 남아 4례, 여아 1례이고, 평균연령은 $10.4{\pm}3.1$세(7세~13세 6개월)였다. 모두에서 HBsAg양성, HBeAb양성과 어머니의 만성 B형 간염의 가족력이 있었다. 간세포암 주변 조직 소견은 1례를 제외하고는 모두에서 간경화의 소견을 보였다. 추적 중 혈청 AFP의 증가로 조기발견된 1례는 종양절제술 후 항암요법으로 추적 중에 있고, 그 외에는 모두 수술 후 항암요법 혹은 방사선요법을 병행하여 시행했으나 사망하였다. 결 론: 만성 B형 간염의 간손상 정도는 임상증상이나 생화학적 검사소견으로 평가할 수 없었고, 간조직검사에 의한 병리조직학적 분류가 필요하였다. 이는 De Groute의 분류와 잘 연관되는 반정량적 Ludwig 방법에 의해 좀 더 포괄적, 구체적, 객관적으로 분류할 수 있었고, 후자는 예후를 예견하고, 형태학적 변화를 감시하며, 통계적으로 분석하는 데 유용한 방법임을 시사하였다.

The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70$\pm$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32$\pm$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500, 550, 570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500, 550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100, 300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3, 000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec. Experimental results or human nerve stimulations using the developed stimulator are presented. 30768 T00401030768 ^x In this paper, we describe the design methodology and specifications of the developed module-based bedside monitors for patient monitoring. The bedside monitor consists of a main unit and module cases with various parameter modules. The main unit includes a 12.1" TFT color LCD, a main CPU board, and peripherals such as a module controller, Ethernet LAN card, video card, rotate/push button controller, etc. The main unit can connect at maximum three module cases each of which can accommodate up to 7 parameter modules. They include the modules for electrocardiograph, respiration, invasive blood pressure, noninvasive blood pressure, temperature, and SpO2 with Plethysmograph.SpO2 with Plethysmograph.

조선시대 지방 읍성에 대한 연구는 다방면에서 많은 성과가 있었으나, 그 내부 관청 건물의 하나인 옥(獄)에 대해서는 고고학적인 연구가 제대로 진행되지 않았다. 죄인들이 머무는 옥사의 배치나 구조, 옥리(관헌)들이 사무를 보거나 숙직 근무를 서는 집무소, 탈출을 방지하는 담장의 구조 등에 대해서는 1997년 경주에서 옥이 처음 발굴된 이후 연구의 필요성이 계속 제기되어 왔으나 비교 대상이 없어 답보 상태였다. 그러나 그 후 발굴된 연일옥 자료와 공주옥 등의 사진을 비교 분석해 본 결과 조선 전기부터 말기까지 축조된 옥의 구조를 파악할 수 있는 기초 자료를 확보할 수 있게 되었다. 세종은 전국의 죄수들을 잘 관리하도록 1426년 표준적인 설계도인 안옥도(犴獄圖)를 배포하였고, 동·하절기 처우 개선 등을 위해 1439년 한 차례 수정하기도 하였다. 1421년부터 1743년까지 운영된 연일옥은 조선 전기부터 중기까지의 옥의 구조를 파악할 수 있는데, 조선 후기까지 운영된 경주옥과 비교할 때 원형 담장, 동서 옥사의 배치와 구조 등 그 형식이 매우 유사하며 규모만 작을 뿐이다. 이러한 구조는 조선 말기 사진으로 남아 있는 공주옥까지 계속 그 형식이 유지되고 있음을 밝힐 수 있었다. 조선시대 옥은 타원형의 담장과 남녀를 구분하여 수용하는 건물이 나누어져 있었고, 담장의 높이는 약 3m에 이를 것으로 추정된다. 옥사는 동쪽이 남자, 서쪽이 여자 옥사로 구분되며 지붕으로 탈출이 어려운 기와집 구조였다. 원형 담장 앞에는 옥리(押牢)들이 근무하는 초가 지붕의 집무소가 있었는데, 2중의 옥문을 통해야만 옥의 출입이 가능하였다. 조선시대 왕들은 인본주의 유교 사상을 구현하고자 미결수들이 머무는 옥의 환경을 개선하고 남녀를 구분하여 수감토록 한 것이 건축물의 배치에 반영되었음을 알 수 있다.

목적: 최근 들어 H. pylori에 의한 염증이 진행되면 만성 위축성위염을 일으키고 나아가서는 위암을 일으킨다는 학설이 대두되면서 UBT의 이용이 증가되고 있다 저자들은 H. pylori 감염과 분포 정도를 평가하는데 C-14 와 C-13 UBT의 진단성능과 유용성에 차이가 있는지를 알아보았다. 대상 및 방법: 소화불량, 위 팽만감, 상복부동통 등의 상부위장관증상이 있어 위십이지장내시경을 시행 받은 환자 중 균박멸요법을 시행 전에 조직검사, C-14 및 C-13 UBT를 모두 시행 받은 38명(남:녀=28:10, 나이; $53.4{\pm}13.0$세)을 대상으로 하였다. 조직생검 결과를 최적 기준으로 하여 C-14 와 C-13 UBT의 진단성능을 비교하였고 Wyatt법에 의한 조직검사의 등급(0-4)과 C-14 및 C-13 UBT의 정량적 측정치와의 상관관계를 비교하였다. 결과: 조직생검에서 25명(65.8%)에서 H. pylori 감염에 대한 양성을 보였다. H. pylori 감염 진단하는데 C-14 UBT는 민감도 92.0%, 특이도 92.3%, 양성예측도 95.8%, 음성예측도 91.7%, 정확도는 92.1% 이었으나, C-13 UBT는 민감도 96.0%, 특이도 84.6%, 양성 예측도 92.3%, 음성예측도 91.7%, 정확도는 92.1% 이었다. 조직검사 등급에 따른 C-14 UBT 측정치와의 상관성이 C-13 UBT 측정치에 비하여 우수하였다(각각 r=0.948 vs r=0.818, p<0.001). 결론: H. pylori 감염을 진단하는데 C-14 와 C-13 UBT는 유의한 차이는 없으나 C-14 UBT 측정치가 H. pylori 감염 정도를 평가하는데 좀 더 유용할 것으로 생각된다.

The composite resin, due to its esthetic qualities, is considered the material of choice for restoration of anterior teeth. With respect to shade control, the direct-placement resin composites offer some distinct advantages over indirect restorative procedures. Visible-light-cured (VLC) composites allow dentists to match existing tooth shades or to create new shades and to evaluate them immediately at the time of restoration placement. Optimal intraoral color control can be achieved if optical changes occurring during application are minimized. An ideal VLC composite, then, would be one which is optically stable throughout the polymerization process. The shade guides of the resin composites are generally made of plastic, rather than the actual composite material, and do not accurately depict the true shade, translucency, or opacity of the resin composite after polymerization. So the numerous problems associated with these shade guides lead to varied and sometimes unpredictable results. The aim of this study was to assess the color changes of current resin composite restorative materials which occur as a result of the polymerization process and to compare the color differences between the shade guides provided with the products and the actual resin composites before- and after-polymerization. The results obtained from this investigation should provide the clinician with information which may aid in improved color match of esthetic restoration. Five light activated, resin-based materials (${\AE}$litefil, Amelogen Universal, Spectrum TPH VeridonFil-Photo, and Z100) and shade guides were used in this study. Three specimens of each material and shade combination were made. Each material was condensed inside a 1.5mm thick metal mold with 10mm diameter and pressed between glass plates. Each material was measured immediately before polymerization, and polymerized with Curing Light XL 3000 (3M Dental products, USA) visible light-activation unit for 60 seconds at each side. The specimens were then polished sequentially on wet sandpaper. Shade guides were ground with polishing stones and rubber points (Shofu) to a thickness of approximately 1.5mm. Color characteristics were performed with a spectrophotometer (CM-3500d, Minolta Co., LTD). A computer-controlled spectrophotometer was used to determine CIELAB coordinates ($L^*$, $a^*$ and $b^*$) of each specimen and shade guide. The CIELAB measurements made it possible to evaluate the amount of the color difference values (${\Delta}E{^*}ab$) of resin composites before the polymerization process and shade guides using the post-polishing color of the composite as a control, CIE standard D65 was used as the light source. The results were as follows. 1. Each of the resin composites evaluated showed significant color changes during light-curing process. All the resin composites evaluated except all the tested shades of 2100 showed unacceptable level of color changes (${\Delta}E{^*}ab$ greater than 3.3) between pre-polymerization and post-polishing state. 2. Color differences between most of the resin composites tested and their corresponding shade guides were acceptable but those between C2 shade of ${\AE}$litefil and IE shade of Amelogen Universal and their respective shade guides exceeded what is acceptable. 3. Comparison of the mean ${\Delta}E{^*}ab$ values of materials revealed that Z100 showed the least overall color change between pre-polymerization and post-polishing state followed by ${\AE}$litefil, VeridonFil-Photo, Spectrum TPH, and Amelogen Universal in the order of increasing change and Amelogen Universal. Spectrum TPH, 2100, VeridonFil-Photo and ${\AE}$litefil for the color differences between actual resin and shade guide. 4. In the clinical environment, the shade guide is the better choice than the shade of the actual resin before polymerization when matching colors. But, it is recommended that custom shade guides be made from resin material itself for better color matching.

본 연구는 농산물 중 2017년 기준신설예정농약 spiroxamine에 대한 공정시험법을 개발하고자 수행하였다. Spiroxamine은 모화합물만이 잔류물로 정의되므로 이를 분석하기 위한 시험법을 개발하였고, 확립된 시험법은 실험실 내 및 실험실 간 검증을 통해 공정시험법으로의 유효성을 확인하였다. Spiroxamine의 물리화학적 특성을 고려하여 분석을 위해 LC-MS/MS를 분석기기로 사용하였으며, acetonitrile으로 추출 후 유기용매를 이용하여 액액분배조건 및 florisil cartridge를 이용한 SPE 정제조건을 확립하여 시료의 불순물을 효과적으로 정제하는 시험법을 개발하였다. 개발된 Spiroxamine 시험법의 직선성은 결정계수($r^2$)가 0.99 이상으로 우수하였으며, 검출한계 및 정량한계는 각각 0.0005, 0.001 mg/kg으로 높은 감도를 나타내었다. 대표 농산물 5종(현미, 감자, 대두, 감귤, 고추)에 대한 시험법 검증결과 평균 회수율(5 반복)은 71.9~98.8%였고, 분석오차는 10.0% 이하로 정확성 및 재현성이 우수함을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 광주지방식약청과의 실험실 간 검증 결과에서 평균 회수율은 70.6~104.6%를 나타내어 모두 Codex 가이드라인 및 식약처 가이드라인의 기준에 부합하는 것으로 확인되었다. 개발된 시험법은 낮은 검출한계 및 정량한계, 우수한 직선성, 회수율 시험을 통한 양호한 정밀성 및 재현성 등이 입증되어 농산물 중 Spiroxamine의 분석을 위한 식품공전 공정시험법으로 활용되기에 적합한 것으로 판단된다.

질소시비량이 쌀의 품질 특성과 취반미의 향기성분에 미치는 영향을 알고자, 조생종인 대진벼, 중만생종인 일품벼와 추청벼를 공시하고, 질소 시비수준을 0, 5.5, 11, 16.5kg/10a로 처리하여 2001년에 포장실험을 수행한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 질소시비량이 증가할수록 세 품종 모두 쌀 수량은 고도로 유의하게 증가하였는데(r=$0.93^{**}\textrm{-}0.97^{**}$) 이는 단위면적당 수수가 유의하게 증가하였기 때문이었다. 2. 질소시비량이 증가함에 따라 현미 완전미율은 유의하게 감소하였고($-0.84^{**}$~$-0.91^{**}$), 불완전미율은 유의하게 증가하였다. 3. 질소시비량이 증가할수록 현미의 단백질 함량은 세 품종 모두 유의하게 높아졌고, 아밀로스 함량은 대진벼와 일품 벼에서는 유의하게 높아졌으나, 추청벼는 일정한 경향을 보이지 않았다. 4. 기계적 식미값은 대진벼와 일품벼에서는 질소시비량 0-11kg/10a 사이에 차이가 없었고, 16.5kg/10a에서는 매우 유의하게 감소하였다. 추청벼는 질소시비량에 비례하여 식미 값이 유의하게 감소하였다. 5. 쌀의 단백질 함량과 질소시비량 간에는 고도로 유의한 정의 상관(r=$0.88^{**}\textrm{-}0.96^{**}$)이, 질소시비량과 완전미율간에는 고도로 유의한 부의 상관(r=$-0.84^{**}$~$-0.91^{**}$)이, 그리고 질소시비량과 식미값 간에도 매우 유의한 부의 상관(r=$-0.72^{**}$~$-0.85^{**}$)이 나타났다. 6. 질소시비 처리한 추청벼 취반미의 취발성 방향 성분을 분석한 결과 총 11종이 검출되었다. 그러나 질소시비량이 증가함에 따라 방향 성분이 뚜렷하게 증가한다고 보기는 어려줬다. 7. 쌀의 수량과 품질을 동시에 고려할 때 질소시비량은 표준시비량(11kg/10a)이 가장 적정할 것으로 생각되며 식미를 높이기 위해 질소 시비량을 표준비 이하로 감소시킬 필요는 없을 것으로 판단되었다.

배경: 흉부 둔상은 전체 흉부 손상의 90%정도를 차지하며 외상과 관련된 사망률의 20%를 유발시킨다. 흉분 둔상에 의한 손상 후 이환율과 사망률의 주요 원인은 발견되지 못한 손상이 남아있기 때문이다. 그리하여 흉부전산화단층 촬영은 외상환자의 진단적 검사에서 매우 자주 사용되어져 왔다. 그러나 흉부 컴퓨터 촬영은 가격이 비싸고, 방사선 노출을 증가시킬 수 있다. 이번 연구를 통하여 흉부둔상 환자에서 흉부단순촬영과 비교하여 흉부전산화단층촬영을 통하여 얼마나 더 많은 정보를 얻을 수 있는지 조사해 보고 그리고 흉부 컴퓨터 촬영의 진단과 치료에 있어서의 역할을 알아보고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 2006년 11월부터 2007년 7월까지 응급실로 내원한 환자 100명을 대상으로 하였다. 이 중 74명의 자동차 관련사고 환자와 26명의 낙상 사고 환자가 있었으며 흉부엑스선과 흉부전산화단층 촬영을 동시에 시행한 환자를 전체 응급실 환자 중에 선택하였다. 자료는 차트를 통하여 혈역학적 소견, 중재적 치료 여부, 손상의 중증도(RTS)와 종류를 조사하였으며, 초기 응급실 내원환자 중 흉부단순촬영과 흉부전산화단층촬영을 시행한 환자를 대상으로 발견되지 못한 병적 소견을 각각 질환별로 분석하였다. 결과: 100예의 환자 중 흉부엑스선 검사상 하나 이상의 병적소견을 보인 환자가 79예였으며 21예의 환자에서는 흉부엑스선 검사상 정상 소견을 보였으며, 이 21예의 환자 중 17예에서 흉부전산화단층촬영상 이상소견이 발견되었다. 흉부엑스선 검사상 발견하지 못한 소견으로는 기흉, 혈흉, 폐좌상, 흉골 골절 등이 있었으며 이러한 병적 소견의 진단은 흉부전산화단층촬영이 흉부엑스선 검사보다 통계적으로 유의하게 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 하지만 치료에 있어서는 흉부전산화촬영 시행 후 발견된 병변으로 흉관삽입술등의 치료를 시행한 환자는 31명에 불과했고 흉관삽입술, 개흉술 등의 흉부외과적인 치료 없이 집중관찰을 위하여 입원한 환자가 42명이었으며, 흉부엑스선촬영과 환자의 이학적 소견으로 진단되어 치료를 시행한 환자가 27명이었다. 결론: 흉부전산화단층촬영은 진단에 있어서 흉부엑스선 촬영보다 통계적으로 의미 있게 진단에 도움이 되는 것을 알 수 있었으나 발견되지 못한 병변이 증가할지라도 치료의 변화와 방법의 변화가 있는 경우는 매우 소수에 불과했다. 그리하여 응급실에서의 흉부전산화단층촬영의 오남용을 막기 위하여 선별적인 흉부전산화단층 촬영을 고려해야 할 것이다.
