We propose the new sampling method, called modified ranked ordering set sampling (MROSS). Kim and Kim (2003) suggested the sign test using the ranked ordering set sampling (ROSS), and showed that the asymptotic relative efficiency (ARE) of ROSS against RSS for sign test increases as sample size does. We propose the estimator for the population mean using MROSS. The relative precision (RP) of estimator of the population mean using MROSS method with respect to the usual estimator using modified RSS is higher, and when the underlying distribution is skewed, the bias of the proposed estimator is smaller than that of several ranked set sampling estimators.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy and precision of polyurethane (PUT) dental arch models fabricated using a three-dimensional (3D) subtractive rapid prototyping (RP) method with an intraoral scanning technique by comparing linear measurements obtained from PUT models and conventional plaster models. Methods: Ten plaster models were duplicated using a selected standard master model and conventional impression, and 10 PUT models were duplicated using the 3D subtractive RP technique with an oral scanner. Six linear measurements were evaluated in terms of x, y, and z-axes using a non-contact white light scanner. Accuracy was assessed using mean differences between two measurements, and precision was examined using four quantitative methods and the Bland-Altman graphical method. Repeatability was evaluated in terms of intra-examiner variability, and reproducibility was assessed in terms of interexaminer and inter-method variability. Results: The mean difference between plaster models and PUT models ranged from 0.07 mm to 0.33 mm. Relative measurement errors ranged from 2.2% to 7.6% and intraclass correlation coefficients ranged from 0.93 to 0.96, when comparing plaster models and PUT models. The Bland-Altman plot showed good agreement. Conclusions: The accuracy and precision of PUT dental models for evaluating the performance of oral scanner and subtractive RP technology was acceptable. Because of the recent improvements in block material and computerized numeric control milling machines, the subtractive RP method may be a good choice for dental arch models.

A reversed-phase liquid chromatographic method for decursin and decursinol angelate of Angelicae gigantis Radix, an important crude drug in Korean traditional medicine, was developed and validated. Decursin and decursinol angelate, the structure isomer (pyranocoumarin) each other, are the main organic constituents in Angelicae gigantis Radix. This method was developed using a RP-18 column, UV detector at 280 nm and 50% acetonitrile solution containing 0.01 M sodium dodecyl sulfate and 25 mM sodium dihydrogen phosphate (pH 5.0) as the mobile phase. Various validation parameters were included and evaluated satisfactorily. Linearity was established in range 2-75 mg/ml of decursin and decursinol angelate (correlation coefficient = 0.9997 and 0.9995, respectively). This analytical method showed good accuracy (98.1% and 99.5%, respectively). Precision (repeatability) revealed a relative standard deviation value of 1.71% (decursin) and 3.19% (decursinol angelate). For intermediate precision measure the considered variables were equipment and days. A robustness test showing the influence of deferent counter-ion concentration in mobile phase was also performed.

GNSS 가강수량은 태풍이나 집중호우의 일기예보를 위한 중요한 요소로 인식되고 있으며, 가강수량을 수치예보 모델에 초기 입력값으로 적용하여 일기예보가 향상되는 연구가 국내${\cdot}$외로 발표되고 있다. 호우 관련 일기예보를 위해서는 가강수량이 실시간 또는 준실시간으로 제공되어야 하며 가강수량 자료의 정밀함과 무결성이 유지되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 정밀절대측위를 이용한 준실시간 가강수량 산출 시스템 개발 과정에 대해 제시하였다. 이를 위하여 정밀절대측위의 대류권 지연 추정과 관련된 변수를 최적화하고 준실시간 GNSS 가강수량 시스템을 개발하였다. 시스템의 분석을 위해 정밀절대측위와 상대측위의 준실시간 가강수량 정밀도를 비교하였다. 비교결과 정밀절대 측위의 가강수량 정밀도가 상대측위 보다 낮게 산출되었지만 자료의 무결성 부분에서는 좋은 결과가 도출되었다. 향후에는 정밀절대측위 방식의 가강수량 정밀도를 높이는 연구가 필요할 것이다.

Objectives : HPL-1, a novel herbal medicine which is composed of five herbs such as Kalopanacis Cortex, Chaenomelis Fructus, Raphani Semen, Atractylodis Rhizoma and Pulvis Aconiti Tuberis Purificatum, was developed for treatment of osteoarthritis. This study is aimed to develop analytical method for consistent quality control of HPL-1 and validate chromatographic method. Methods : Chromatographic analysis was performed using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography - diode array detector (UHPLC-DAD) equipped with RP-amide column, column oven, and auto sampler. Marker compounds [protocatechuic acid, chlorogenic acid, liriodendrin, 3,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid, ${\beta}$-D-(3-O-sinapoyl)-fructofuranosyl-$\alpha$-D-(6-O-sinapoyl)glucopyranoside and benzoylmesaconine] were separated by step gradient elution of acetonitrile and 0.1% phosphoric acid/water. The method validation was evaluated by quantitative validation parameters of linearity, accuracy, precision, limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) according to KFDA guideline.Results : An optimized method for six marker compounds in HPL-1 was established by UHPLC-DAD. The correlation coefficient (R²) with each calibration curve was greater than 0.99. The LOD and LOQ were within the range of 0.008-0.090 and $0.023-0.274{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. The relative standard deviation (RSD) of intra- and inter-day variability were less than 4.0%. The result of recovery test was range from 93.3-106.3% with RSD < 4.0%.Conclusions : These results suggest that the quantitative UHPLC method is precise, accurate, effective for quality evaluation of HPL-1. The method may also contribute to improve quality of crude drug preparations used for treatment of various diseases.
