Since the fact was known that mouth breathing resulted from the adenoid hypertropy causes malocclusion, many investigators have studied nasopharynx and adenoid in order to clarify the role in relation to the effect on face and occlustion and the development of airway. The author analyzed 13 items in longitudinal cephalometric roentgenograms of 17 boys and 19 girls taken from the age of 7 to 12. The results were as follows. 1. The means and standard deviation for the measured items were obtained. 2. The continual growth of nasopharyngeal cavity was more affected by the height than the depth. 3. The size of adenoid was larger in males than in females, especially on R, $D-AD_2$. 4. Airway percentage was highest in boys at age 10 and girls at age 9. 5. The items showed significant differentiation between males and females were airway percentage, posterior height, $D-AD_1,\;D-AD_2$, and R.

Due to the increasing demand for spectrum resources, cognitive radio networks and dynamic spectrum access draw a lot of research into efficiently utilizing limited spectrum resources. To set up cluster-based CR ad-hoc common channels, conventional methods require a relatively long time to successfully exchange the initialization messages. In this paper, we propose a fast and reliable common channel initialization protocol for CR ad-hoc networks. In the proposed method, the cluster head sequentially broadcasts a system activation signal through its available channels with a predetermined correlation pattern. To detect the cluster head's broadcasting channels and to join the cluster, each member node implements fast Fourier transform (FFT) and computes autocorrelation of an FFT bin sequence for each available channel of the member node. This is compared to the predetermined reference pattern. The join request and channel decision procedures are also presented in this paper. In a simulation study, the performance of the proposed method is evaluated.

Background and Purpose: Facial emotion recognition deficits impact the daily life, particularly of Alzheimer's disease patients. We aimed to assess these deficits in the following three groups: subjective cognitive decline (SCD), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and mild Alzheimer's dementia (AD). Additionally, we explored the associations between facial emotion recognition and cognitive performance. Methods: We used the Korean version of the Florida Facial Affect Battery (K-FAB) in 72 SCD, 76 MCI, and 76 mild AD subjects. The comparison was conducted using the analysis of covariance (ANCOVA), with adjustments being made for age and sex. The Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) was utilized to gauge the overall cognitive status, while the Seoul Neuropsychological Screening Battery (SNSB) was employed to evaluate the performance in the following five cognitive domains: attention, language, visuospatial abilities, memory, and frontal executive functions. Results: The ANCOVA results showed significant differences in K-FAB subtests 3, 4, and 5 (p=0.001, p=0.003, and p=0.004, respectively), especially for anger and fearful emotions. Recognition of 'anger' in the FAB subtest 5 declined from SCD to MCI to mild AD. Correlations were observed with age and education, and after controlling for these factors, MMSE and frontal executive function were associated with FAB tests, particularly in the FAB subtest 5 (r=0.507, p<0.001 and r=-0.288, p=0.026, respectively). Conclusions: Emotion recognition deficits worsened from SCD to MCI to mild AD, especially for negative emotions. Complex tasks, such as matching, selection, and naming, showed greater deficits, with a connection to cognitive impairment, especially frontal executive dysfunction.

Purpose: The purpose of study was to provide basic data for developing interventions that could help middle-aged adults prepare for dignified death in the future by examining their attitudes toward death and advance directives (AD), and knowledge of AD. Methods: Data were collected through a survey of 211 middle-aged adults from January 28 to February 28, 2019, in a city located in Gangwon Province. To analyze the data, descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Scheffé test, Pearson's correlation coefficient and stepwise linear regression were utilized using SPSS/WINdows 21.0. Results: The average score of the participants' attitudes toward death and AD, and knowledge of AD was 91.82±10.89, 15.53±4.27, 46.00±9.45, respectively. There were positive correlations between attitudes toward dignified death and attitudes toward AD, and knowledge of AD. Factors that influence attitudes toward AD were shown in the order of attitudes toward dignified death, knowledge of AD, and intentions to write AD (Adjusted R²=.24). Conclusion: For the dignified death in the future, it is necessary to provide middle-aged adults with an opportunity to think about the need of AD. In addition, extensive education and promotion of AD are required to correct the misunderstanding of AD.

An E1B-defective adenovirus, named r2/Ad carrying the neo expression cassette, was constructed by homologous recombination. The construction, selection (using neomycin as a selective marker), and propagation of the recombinant virus was performed in human embryonic kidney 293 cells (HEK 293). An in vitro study demonstrated that this recombinant virus has the ability to replicate in and lyse some p53-deficient human tumor cells such as human glioma tumor cells (U251) and human bladder cells (EJ), but not in some cells with functional p53, such as human adenocarcinoma cells (A549) and human fibroblast cells (MRC-5). Also, based on the cytopathic effect (CPE), it was demonstrated, under identical conditions, that the U251 cells were more sensitive to r2/Ad replication than the EJ cells. In this paper, we report that r2/Ad could be very useful in studying the in vitro selective replication of E1B-defective adenovirus and has great potential in cancer gene therapy.

In order to introduce to engineers the suitable calculation techniques of TBM advance rate (ad.) and ultimately promote to understand the designing process, this study was carried out. We analyzed the 17 bored data of TBM which applied to the roadway and water supply tunnels in Korea. From this analysis, it was able to how that the average utilization is 30.83% md the correlation equation of Ad and TBM´s diameter (D) is Ad(m/month) = 506.05ㆍ $e^{-0.1162}$$\times$D than the correlation coefficient ($R^2$) is 0.76. In the object of the W tunnel of Seoul-Busan highspeed railway, the Ad of TBM 5.0mø was analyzed by the variety of empirical models and upper correlation equation. Average Ad of the empirical models was calculated to be larger than one of the upper equations. But considering only the results of 3.0~5.0mø TBM in the 17 bored data, the average Ad by the models belongs to the similar range of bored data. Therefore, when the reliability and representative of parameters are decreased, a reliability test should be carried out through the comparison a variety of empirical models with the upper correlation equation.

애드-혹 네트워크는 기간망에 의존하지 않고, 노드들끼리 자율적으로 데이터 이동 경로를 형성하는 네트워크이다. 일반적으로 애드-혹 네트워크는 다중-홉 통신을 기반으로 하며 네트워크의 규모가 커질수록 경로 설정을 위한 제어 패킷의 양이 급격히 증가하게 되고 노드의 수명이 단축 된다. 이러한 노드들의 특성으로 인해서 네트워크 크기에 따른 보다 에너지 효율성 적용이 가능한 경로 설정 기법에 대한 연구가 요구되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 특히 계층적인 클러스터 구조 기반의 애드-혹 네트워크 환경에서 노드가 동질적 공간-포아송의 조건에서 노드의 분포 밀도와 속성정보를 고려한 클러스터의 계층 깊이 결정 알고리즘인 CACHE-R(Context-Aware Clustering Hierarchy, Efficient and Resilient)를 제안한다. 제안하고자 하는 CACHE-R기법은 최적화된 계층의 깊이와 속성정보를 적용함으로써 에너지 보존적인 경로를 설정하여, 전체 네트워크의 에너지 소비량을 감소시키고 네트워크 수명을 향상되는 특성을 보여주었다.

H.323 proposes to use Mobile IP and H.323 ad hoc conference signaling to provide Handoff function to an H.323 mobile terminal. But the H.323 ad hoc conference signaling has a drawback. It requires an H.323 terminal to do a complex conference signaling which takes a longer signaling time. In this paper, we propose an GK architecture that provides Handoff function effectively using 3$^{rd}$ P'||'||'||'||'||'&'||'||'||'||'||'R(Third party initiated Pause and Rerouting) signaling which are done through H.245 logical channel. The GK which is implementing 3$^{rd}$ P'||'||'||'||'||'&'||'||'||'||'||'R signaling only requires an H.323 endpoint to do the H.323 basic signaling in reestablishing media channel and gives the faster Handoff signaling. To do this, our GK has derived H.245 control channel using tunneling f3r all H.323 calls including the fast connect calls which enable terminals communicate each other if they doesn't have H.245 control channel .municate each other if they doesn't have H.245 control channel .

차량 애드 혹 네트웍 (VANET)은 모바일 애드혹 네트워크의 일종으로써 차량 간의 임시적인 통신을 가능케 한다. VANET의 모바일 노드는 네트웍의 일원으로 참여하면서 에너지와 자원을 사용한다. 몇몇의 노드는 다른 노드와 협력하는 대신에 자신의 이득만을 취하려고 하는 이기성을 가지고 있다. 이러한 이기성을 가진 노드들로 인해 데이터 접근성과 네트웍의 효율성이 감소하게 된다. 이 논문에서는 새로운 기법인 VANET 그룹에서 이기성을 갖고있는 노드를 제거하는 Friendship-VaR을 제안한다. Friendship-VaR은 이기성을 갖고있는 노드를 제거하고 믿을 수 있는 노드들간에 데이터 공유를 가능케 한다. Friendship-VaR는 간단한 데이터 교환을 통해 노드의 이기성 여부를 결정한다. 실험 결과는 제안한 기법이 기존의 기법에 비해 데이터 접근성이 좋아짐을 보여준다.
