This study was conducted to test whether the education program consisted with knowledge about professional care for elderly and content of elderly simulation experience to improve empathy had positive effects on attitude and intention to practicing nursing care toward elderly. According to the study results, It was appeared that the experimental group provided both knowledge and elderly simulation experience showed more positive attitude toward elderly(t=2.56, p=.026) and intention to practicing nursing care for elderly(t=6.73, p=.003), compared with the group provided knowledge only. However, after experiencing elderly simulation program, the attitude toward elderly(t=1.22, p=.170) and intention to practice nursing care for elderly(t=-0.08, p=.470) in experimental group improved very little or so, whereas the attitude toward elderly(t=-2.33, p=.012) and intention to practice nursing care for elderly(t=-1.08, p=.150) in comparison group became even worse.

Today's massively multiplayer online games(MMOGs) can contain millions of synchronous players scattered across the world and participating with each other within a single shared game. The increase in the number of players in MMOGs has led to some issues with the demand of server which generates a significant increase in costs for the game industry and impacts to the quality of service offered to players. In dealing with a considerable scale of MMOGs, we propose a cloud computing and peer-to-peer(P2P) hybrid architecture in this paper. Given the two nearly independent functionalities of P2P and cloud architectures, we consider the possibility of fusing these two concepts and researching the application of the resultant amalgamation in MMOGs. With an efficient and effective provisioning of resources and mapping of load, the proposed hybrid architecture relieves a lot of computational power and network traffic, the load on the servers in the cloud while exploiting the capacity of the peers. The simulation results show that MMOGs based on the proposed hybrid architecture have better performance and lower traffic received compared with MMOGs based on traditional client-server system.

본 연구는 돼지 체세포의 clonal cell lines을 효율적으로 확립할 수 있는 배양방법을 제시하기 위하여 실시하였다. 50일령의 돼지태아로부터 섬유아세포를 회수하여 2회 계대배양 후 단일 세포를 96-well plate와 4-well dish에서 배양하여 배양액내의 FBS농도(10, 30, 50%), 첨가제(catalase, $\beta$-mercaptoethanol; BME), 세포의 크기(<16, 16~20, 20<) 및 형태(smooth, rough)에 따른 cell line 확립 효율을 검토하였다. FBS 농도에 따른 clonal line 확립 효율과 PD를 검토한 결과, 효율에 있어서 30% FBS 처리구(5.1%)가 10%(0.3%) 및 50%처리구(2.1%)보다 비교적 높게 나타났으나 유의적 차이는 없었으며, PD의 경우는 10, 30, 50%처리구에서 각각 36.7, 29.4, 26.3 시간으로 FBS 농도가 증가할수록 PD 시간이 유의적으로 짧아졌다(p<0.05). 배양액 첨가제에 있어서 BME 가시 무처리구나 catalase 첨가시보다 유의적으로 높은 효율을 보였으며(11.4%, 3.2%, 3.2%; p<0.05), PD 시간은 짧게 나타났다(23.6, 25.5, 28.1; p<0.05). 그러나 catalase는 cell line 확립 효율에 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 세포의 크기에 따른 cell line 확립효율은 5.2~8.2%로 크기에 따른 차이는 보이지 않았으며, PD 또한 23.7~27.9 시간으로 세포 크기에 따른 차이는 없었다. 세포의 형태에 따른 세포의 부착율은 smooth(55.8%)구가 rough(73.0%)구보다 유의적으로 낮게 나타났으나(p<0.05), clonal line 확립 효율(7.7%n vs. 6.6%) 및 PD(23.5h vs. 24.0h)에서는 차이가 없었다. 본 연구의 결과, 세포의 형태에 따른 cell line 확립 효율은 큰 차이가 없었으나, 세포 배양액내에 30% FBS와 BME의 첨가로 clonal cell line 확립 효율을 향상시킬 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 cell line 확립 효율이 높아질수록 PD 시간이 짧아지는 경향을 볼 수 있었다.

Background: Malaria is a problematic disease in Korea, and microscopic examination of Giemsa-stained blood smear has been used as the gold standard for its diagnosis. However, this technique is time-consuming and has low sensitivity in samples with low numbers of malarial parasites (<20 parasites/μL). Here, we evaluated the performance characteristics of the LG Advansure^TM Malaria P.f./P.v. real-time QPCR (LG life sciences, Korea). Methods: Blood samples from 173 persons who visited Korea University Ansan Hospital were evaluated. QPCR was performed in 73 malaria patients and 100 healthy subjects by using the LG Advansure Malaria P.f./P.v. real-time QPCR^R kit, and the results were compared with those of microscopy. The detection limit of this kit was determined by serial dilution of Plasmodium-infected blood with normal blood (blood not infected with Plasmodium). Results: Among the 73 patients that were microscopically confirmed to have malaria (Plasmodium vivax infection, N=70, P. falciparum infection, N=3), 69 patients were diagnosed with P. vivax infection and 3 were diagnosed with P. falciparum infection by LG Advansure^TM Malaria P.f./P.v. realtime QPCR. Both the tests indicated absence of infection in the 100 healthy subjects. The detection limit of LG Advansure^TM Malaria P.f./P.v. real-time QPCR was 0.1 parasite/μL. Conclusions: LG Advansure^TM Malaria P.f./P.v. real-time QPCRis a very sensitive and specific technique and can be used as a confirmatory test for malaria.

The present study was carried out to evaluate whether the coculture system of human embryos with Vero cells can improve the quality of embryo or overcome the repetitive implantation failures in order to obtain pregnancy. From January to December 1996, a total 202 cases which patients with the problems of repetitive implantation failures (group I) or those with the poor embryonic quality in their previous cycles (group II) was analysed. The quality of cocultured embryo, pregnancy, on-going and implantation rates between coculture and control groups were compared. Of 93 cases in group I, coculture was performed in 34 cases and conventional IVF for the rest. Of 109 cases in group II, 36 for coculture and 73 for conventional IVF. In group I, pregnancy, on-going and implantation rates in coculture group (14/34 (41.2%), 9/34 (26.5%), 16/81 (19.8%), respectively) were higher than those of control (11/59 (18.6%), 8/59 (13.6%), 12/152 (7.9%), respectively). There is significance in the pregnancy and implantation rates (p=0.028 and p=0.015). In group II, pregnancy, on-going and implantation rates in coculture group (8/36 (22.2%), 5/36 (13.9%), 8/87 (9.2%), respectively) were higher than those of control (5/73 (6.8%), 3/73 (4.1%), 3/158 (1.9%), respectively). Like the result of group I, there is significance in the pregnancy and implantation rates (p=0.028 and p=0.022). Coculture system with Vero cells works well in the groups of the two indications. Although the case of 3 day-coculture was small as 15 cases in group II, 3 day-coculture improved pregnancy rate (4/15 (26.7%)). Therefore, 3 day-coculture with assisted hatching is recommended to the patients with poor embryonic quality. In conclusion, coculture system with Vero cells can be suggested as an effective method which improves pregnancy rate in those who have repetitive implantation failures or whose embryonic quality was poor in their previous cycles.

The production of delta-endotoxin crystal and the cloning of endotoxin protein gene in Bscillus thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki HD1 strain were studied. The strain produced bipyramidal crystals ($2.9\times 1.0 \mu m$) in their cells during sporulation. The B. thuringiensis contained about 10 plasmid DNA elements ranging from 2.1 to 80 kilobases. The 73 kb plasmid DNA, the 29 kb BamHI fragment and the 7.9 kb Pstl DNA fragment hybridized to the pHL probe. The 7.9 kb fragment was eluted and cloned in the PstI site of pBR322 vector and transformed into E. coli HB101, which produced insecticidal proteins killing Bornbyx mori larvae.

Purpose: To determine whether maternal attitude toward sex during pregnancy and health-related quality of life could influence sexual function of pregnant women. Methods: In this study, 138 second and third trimester pregnant women completed self-report questionnaires during their visits to women's hospitals or community health centers to assess their general characteristics, attitude toward sex during pregnancy (PIES-M), health-related quality of life (EQ-5D), and sexual function (FSFI-6K). Multiple regression analysis was performed to test the research model with SPSS version 23. Results: Pregnant women who had discontinued their sexual life after recognizing their pregnancy accounted for 27.5% of women questioned. The average sexual function score of pregnant women was higher in the second trimester than the third trimester. Attitude toward sex during pregnancy (${\beta}=-.38$, p<.001), maintaining sexual life (${\beta}=.20$, p=.028), health-related quality of life (${\beta}=.18$, p=.030), and adverse symptoms during sex (${\beta}=.18$, p=.042) were determinants of sexual function during pregnancy. Conclusion: Nurses in antenatal care units need to help pregnant women maintain a positive attitude toward sexual activity during pregnancy and manage their health-related quality of life to maintain their sexual life during pregnancy.
