We study the asymptotic behavior of the maximum partial likelihood estimator in the Cox proportional hazards model in the presence of nuisance parameters when the entry of patients is staggered. When entry of patients is simultaneous and there is only one regression parameter in the Cox model, the efficient score process of the partial likelihood is martingale and converges weakly to a time-chnaged Brownian motion. Our problem is to get a similar result in the presence of nuisance parameters when entry of patient is staggered.

Educational evaluation is not the work to rank learners hierarchically, but the thing to increase the educational effectiveness by solving a learner's problem and improving the education process from the proper evaluation. The conventional evaluation systems have measured a learner's recognition level by dichotomy. Although they support the evaluation depending on a learner's academic ability and supply the feedback for wrong selection, it is insufficient to take out study-motive and give the establishment for a guidance point of learning. In this paper, we propose the web-based individual adaptive testing system in considering partial score for a learner. Our system are effective to estimate the ability of learner by considering partial score in detail and offer an feedback study from the self-diagnosis function for a learning results.

When there is one change-point in the hazard rate model, a change-point estimator with the partial score process is suggested and compared with the previously developed estimators. The limiting distribution of the partial score process we used is a function of the Brownian bridge. Simulation study gives the comparison of change-point estimators.

This case was report of intra-articular bee venom pharmacopuncture injection on the patient with Acute Traumatic Partial tear of meniscus. We used intra-articular bee venom pharmacopuncture injection to Acute Traumatic Partial tear of meniscus diagnosed by symptoms and MR imaging. Be under treatment if necessary we prescribed herbal medication and physiotherapy. The state of patient was measured by Visual Analog Scale(VAS) and Walking time and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities(WOMAC) Index score. After several times of treatments, noticeable reduction of pain was measured and increased time of walking on floor and decreased WOMAC score. This results suggest that intra-articular bee venom pharmacopuncture injection are effective to treatments of Acute Traumatic Partial tear of meniscus.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of scapulothoracic exercise and thoracic mobilization on shoulder pain and function in individulas with shoulder partial- thickness rotator cuff tear. Methods : Forty-five subjects were recruited and randomly divided into 3 groups of 15 subjects each : Scapulothoracic exercise with Thoracic mobilization (STwTM), Scapulothoracic exercise (ST), and Thoracic mobilization (TM) groups. All subjects were assessed for pain and disability of shoulder, thoracic angle base on the Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) and Thoracic kyphosis assessment (TKA) using Baseline Bubble Inclinometer. All groups performed 50 minutes of the intervention twice a week for a total of six weeks. These tests were evaluated Three times : prior to the start of the intervention, after three weeks and, after six weeks had passed. Results : The SPADI score showed that pain and dysfunction in the STwTM group decreased compared to those in the other two groups. The TKA score showed a decrease over time in the ST, TM, and STwTM groups, in increasing order. However, the TKA score decreased significantly in the STwTM group compared to that in the oher two groups. Conclusion : ST and TM are effective in improving pain and dysfunction in patients. However, STwTM may be more effective for patients.

This study was carried out to investigate nutrients intake and dietary environments of rural and asylum elderly in partial Kyunggi area. Results were as followes: (1) Educational level of 2 groups of rural and asylum elderly was only literacy, And rural elderly worked more than the aged of asylum. (2) The nutrients intake of rural elderly was very small quantity: Energy intake was 62% of RDA, that of protein 59%, calcium 56%, and iron 72% only. This nutrients intake state was lower than that of asylum elderly. (3) Health score CMI was selected 31 cases of items for aged. Ryal elderly received 11.7/31, but the scores of asylum elderly were 7.1 only. It means that asylum elderly felt more healthy than rural. (4) The correlation Serum TG was significant with protein fat and calcium, but serum calcium was not significant with intake of calcium. The nutrients intake was correlated with CMI score and dietary habit score.

Purpose: To evaluate and compare the functional results, activity status, and anterior stability between conservative group with partial ACL injury and reconstruction group with bone-patellar ten-don-bone autograft in ACL total rupture. Materials and Methods: Thirty-eight patients with ACL injury were diagnosed and treated with arthroscopy and followed for more than two years. The number of patients with partial injury was 12(mean age; 38.3) and reconstruction group was 26 (mean age; 25.3). Objective stability was estimated under anterior loading of 15 lb and 20 lb by KT-2000 Arthrometer (MED metric, USA). Functional evaluation using Lysholm score and Tegner activity score were performed. Results: Average functional score of Lysholm was 88.5 in partial injury group and 89.3 in reconstruction group. Average score of Tegner was 5.3 in partial injury group and 5.1 in reconstruction group(P<0.05).Average anterior displacement compared with normal side. Under loading of 20lb, 1.7$\pm$4.3 mm in partial injury group, 2.3$\pm$1.9 mm in reconstruction group were anterior displaced (P<0.05). Under loading of 15lb, 1.2$\pm$1.0 mm in partial injury group, 1.4$\pm$1.5 mm in reconstruction group were dis-placed (P<0.05). There were giving way, effusion, instability and anterior knee pain in complication. Giving way was the frequent complication in the partial injury group. Conclusions: Clinical results of both group were similar. Functional evaluation of Lysholm was good and status of Tegner activity was maintained to physical fitness activites (jogging, regular bik-ing) in both groups on average. The results of conservative treatment for the partial ACL injury (less than 50$\%$) was satisfactory and equivalent to that of reconstructive treatment for the total ACL injury.

The purpose of this study is to assess dietary habits of the hazardous drinkers and the heavy episodic drinkers in Korean adults. The respondents consisted of 814 adults (415 male and 399 female) who are 20~69 years of age by random selection in partial area of Gyeonggi. A self-report questionnaire was used to cover questions regarding dietary habits, drinking behavior and physical activity. Total dietary habit scores in hazardous drinker group (63.25) was significantly lower than normal drinker group (68.61) in male respondents (P<0.001). Male hazardous drinker group less eat fruit (P<0.01), eat more processed food (P<0.01) than male normal drinker group. Female hazardous drinker group doesn't eat 3 meals a day than female normal drinker group. Total dietary habit scores in heavy episodic drinker group [occasional heavy episodic drinker (62.76), frequent heavy episodic drinker (63.77)] were significantly lower than abstainer group (69.16) in male respondents (P<0.001). Male heavy episodic drinker group less eat fruit (P<0.01), eats more processed food (P<0.01), salty food (P<0.001), sugary food (P<0.05), animal fat (P<0.01) and eats out often (P<0.01) than male abstainer group. Male heavy episodic drinker group significantly less apply nutrition knowledge to their life (P<0.05) and less exercise everyday-more than 1 hour (P<0.01) than male abstainer group. In drinking behavior index, AUDIT (alcohol use disorder identification test) score was negatively correlated with age (P<0.01). There was a positive correlation between dietary habits and physical activity (P<0.01) but there was negative correlation between dietary habits and AUDIT score (P<0.01). This study highlights that AUDIT score was negatively influenced dietary habits.
