  • In order to measure the respiratory rate, one of the major vital signs, many devices have been developed and related studies have been conducted. In particular, as the number of wearers of respirators increases in the COVID-19 pandemic situation, studies have been conducted to measure the respiratory rate of the wearer by attaching an electronic sensor to the respirator, but most of them are cases in which an air flow sensor or a microphone sensor is used. In this study, we design and develop a system that measures the respiratory rate of the wearer using an air pressure sensor in a respirator. Air pressure sensors are inexpensive and consume less power than the other sensors. In addition, since the amount of data required for calculation is small and the algorithm is simple, it is suitable for small-scale and low-power processing devices such as Arduino. We developed an algorithm to measure the respiratory rate of a respirator wearer by analysing air pressure change patterns. In addition, variables that can affect air pressure changes were selected, and experimental scenarios were designed according to the variables. According to the designed scenario, we collected air pressure data while the respirator wearer was breathing. The performance of the developed system was evaluated using the collected data.

  • The art of carpet weaving is the most habitual form of traditional art in Azerbaijan, it reflects a rich inner world and occupies a special place in the history of a national culture's development. The Azerbaijani carpet has always stood out for its plots, ornaments, compositions, and high quality and the Azerbaijani people, faithful to their spiritual values, have protected and developed it throughout the centuries. In this article, several Ganja-Gazakh-type carpets from the Azerbaijan National Carpet Museum collection and their artistic and technical characteristics are discussed. Specimens of material, sacred language, and ornamentation are considered. The deepest meaning is embodied in tamga in particular. Tamga is a unique phenomenon serving as an amulet, lineage sign, and self-identification of Turkic peoples. The Gazakh carpets of the Ganja-Gazakh type cover the Gazakh region of Azerbaijan, the Borchali region of Georgia, and the Goycha Lake region of Armenia. Karapapakh Azerbaijani Turks have inhabited these areas since ancient times. Tarakama (nomads) are often equated with the name Karapapakh (black hat). One of the densely populated regions of Tarakama is Gazakh. Gazakh, Garagoyunlu, Salahli, Shikhli, Kamarli, Damirchilar, Gaymagli, Goycali, Daghkasaman, Oysuzlu, Gachagan, and pile carpets with different compositions are woven in the Gazakh carpet weaving center. Large, simple in form, step-shaped or hook-like medallions, horn-shaped patterns, animal images, and stamps with symbols of ancient Turkic tribes characterize the Gazakh carpet weaving group.

  • 연구목적 : 기관지폐포암은 다양한 임상적, 방사선적인 양상으로 나타나며 대표적인 방사선적인 양상으로 또는 종괴, 국소적 경화, 미만성 결절 또는 경화 등으로 나타난다. 고립성 결절 또는 국소적 경화 병변으로 나타난 기관지폐포암은 다발성 병변과는 달리 예후가 좋으므로 조기에 진단하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 그러나 고립성 결절로 나타나는 기관지폐포암은 비특이적 임상증상과 다양한 방사선 양상으로 폐렴, 폐결핵, 양성병변으로 오인되어 치료의 시기를 놓치는 경우가 있다. 이에 저자들은 고립성 폐결절로 나타난 기관지폐포암의 임상적, 방사선적 특성을 알아보기 위하여 다음과 같은 연구를 시행하였다. 방 법 : 1995년 1월부터 1996 년 8월까지 서울삼성병원에서 병리학적으로 기관지폐포암이 진단되고 방사선 소견에서 고립성 폐결절로 나타난 환자를 대상으로 임상적, 방사선적인 특성을 조사였다. 결 과 : 환자는 총 11명으로 남자는 6명, 여자 5명이었고 환자들의 연령은 37세에서 69세로 중앙 연령값은 60세이었다. 대부분의 환자는 증상이 없이 단순흉부촬영에서 우연히 이상소견이 발견되어 진단되었다. 단순흉부촬영상 대부분 경계가 불명확한 결절 또는 음영증가의 소견을 보였고 단순흉부촬영후 추측진단 양성병변이나 결핵성 폐병변으로 오인되었던 예가 6예였고 5예에서만 악성 결절로 추정되었다. 전산화단층촬영상 경화, 간유리 모양, 기관지 공기 조영, open bronchus sign, internal bubble-like lucencies, spiculated margin 또는 pleural tag등의 소견이 대부분의 환자에서 관찰되었다. FDG-PET 검사를 시행한 8예중 3예에서 악성을 의심하는 소견이 보였고 5예에서 위음성의 소견을 보였다. 병리학적인 진단은 경기관지폐생검과 경피적 폐생검을, 통해 진단된 예가 각각 1예, 2예이었고 8예에서는 비디오흉강경을 이용한 폐생검을 통해 이루어졌다. 환자는 모두 폐엽절제술을 시행받았고 수술후 병기는 $T_1N_0M_0$가 8예, $T_2N_0M_0$가 3예로 근치적 절제술이 가능하였다. 결 론 : 고립성 결절 양상의 기관지폐포암은 증상 없이 우연히 발견되는 경우가 대부분이며 단순흉부촬영상 주로 경계가 불명확한 결절 또는 음영증가의 소견으로 나타나 양성병변으로 오인되는 경우가 많았다. 만약, 이런 병변이 추적검사에서 계속 남아 있거나 커지는 경우는 흉부전산화단층촬영을 시행하여 경화, 간유리 모양, 기관지 공기조영, internal bubble-like lucencies, spiculated margin 또는 pleural tag등 소견을 보인다면 개흉술 등을 포함한 적극적인 진단적 접근이 필요하다고 생각된다.

  • Ornaments are accessories for the decoration of the body or dress. They aren't unavoidably required one, but serve to make one's dress perfect as decorative industrial art objects. In Morocco, ornaments were initially used as a sign of social position or the class or an incantatory symbol. In effect, they were originally employed to adjust one's dress, not just for decoration, and they were of use for household economy. Gold, silver and handcraft available for exchange were a means of increasing one's property and an indication of social standing and wealth. In particular, the dress and jewelry of a bride was a measure of her family's wealth, regarded as a symbol of her chastity and value. The ornaments symbolically back up people's faith in supernatural power, and their real value is based on implicit form or way of decoration, not the external shape. Specifically, there is a tendency to use the form of animal as a protector, not one to frighten people. In the artistic tradition of Morocco, fish pattern stands for water and rain, and eagle and bird are considered to be related to fate. Scorpion and lizard are depicted as an inquirer of sun, and snake is a symbol of abundance and sexual instinct, being viewed to have an ability to cure disease. Turtle pattern is a symbol of saint because it protects one from the evil. The ornaments are made of gold, silver, amber, clam, garnet, glass, nielle, enamel, glaze, coral or tree, and symbolic patterns are used, including hand(a symbol of five numerals), turtle, lizard, scorpion, eye, triangle, bird and eggs. They are very big and diverse, being categorized into ornaments for the head or the chest, neckless, fibula, earring, bracelet and ring. For Moroccans, make-up is a sort of instinctive behavior to meet aesthetic and sexual desire. They also wear make-up for practical purpose of protection, intentionally inflict a wound on the skin for ceremonial or religious purpose, paint the skin with pigment, or have the part of the body tattooed for incantatory purpose. All this actions are regarded as make-up. The raw material of cosmetics is aker, a vegetable dye. They get the lips or cheeks turn red and paint eyebrows with yellow saffran powder to have a bad devil lose its strength. Tattooing is mainly done by women and viewed as a sign of their value or social organization they belong to. Sometimes that is used to represent a woman's being old enough to marry or getting married already or the frequency of marriage. Besides, tattoo is believed to prevent or remedy loose bowels or cough, depending on its location or pattern, and they often change tattoo according to the change of beauty art.

  • The objectives of this study is to analyze the characteristics of Chinese traditionality expression at restaurants in Beijing area. 12 restaurants were selected and visited for the investigation research. The results were as follows. First, traditional reproduction was found mainly manifested through the reproduction of traditional ornaments, in particular, the facade and interior element ornaments. Second, Traditional transformation was mainly manifested in replacement material while changing the shape slightly, or to stretch or shorten prototype shape and other negative deformation methods which did not largely out of the scope of traditional reproduction. Third, Traditional reinterpretation was expressed by abstract, symbol or metaphor on designs, usually people can not directly recognize the traditional archetype. When compare with traditional reproduction or traditional transformation, traditional reinterpretation was relatively fewer, however, in this study the traditional reinterpretation and traditional transformation have same numerical result. Reinterpretation as a positive performance method of traditional modernized, it was encouraging the phenomenon, especially in the ceiling design. Chinese traditional cloud patterns have been three-dimensional and diversification of use. And in the wall design, traditional elements have been extremely simplistic or adopted a wide variety of traditional elements, it may be preferred in diversity. In addition, furniture was tinge traditional elements in modern form, lighting was added symbolize color or picture on the traditional lighting which shape was simplified to emphasize space's traditional. But the facade, sign board, floor, and window element seems the range of variation was not wild, promote more use the positive traditional reinterpretation method.

  • The purpose of this study was to find out the craniofacial skeletal characteristics and to establish standards in facial patterns of Korean adolescences with normal occlusion. The subjects consisted of 54 males and 71 females ranging in age from 12 to 16 years. To classify facial patrons, number the clinical deviations from the normal five key measurements: the facial axis, facial angle, mandibular plane angle, lower face height, mandibular arc, are added and averaged with the proper sign to divide subjects into three groups ; brachyfacial, mesofacial dolichofacial groups. For the comparison of each group, a total of 43 morphologic variables were employed and the data were analyzed by statistical methods. The findings of this study can be summerized as follows; 1. The mesofacial group was $54.4\%$, the brachyfacial group was $29.6\%$ and the dolichofacial group was $16.0\%$ in this subjects. 2. There were no significant differences in size and shape of cranial base among each groups. 3. The brachyfacial group manifested the forward positioned maxilla and mandible to anterior cranial base, smaller cant of the mandibular plane, square shaped mandible, and prominent symphysis as compared with dolichofacial group. 4. There were no significant differences in the cant of the maxilla to the anterior cranial base among each groups. 5. Ramal height and madibular body length of brachyfacial group were larger than those of dolichofacial group. 6. Brachyfacial group indicated the smallest degree in divergency of maxilla and mandible while dolichofacial group showed the largest degree.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study is to define the geographic patterns of partial avascular necrosis (AVN) of the talar body and to determine whether there were any predictors of both the location and occurrence of partial AVN. Materials and Methods: Nineteen patients with fracture of the talar neck treated by open reduction and internal fixation and followed up for more than 1 year were analyzed. The radiographs were examined 6 to 8 weeks after the operation for Hawkins sign and if it was not observed, magnetic resonance scans were performed. The three-dimensional analysis was performed using Mimics 17.0 (Materialise). The incidence of collapse and time to operative intervention was recorded. Results: Partial AVN of the talar body was observed in six out of 19 patients. The avascular segment of the talar body was located predominantly in the anterolateral portion. The average volume of the avascular segment was $289mm^3$, and it occupied 1% of total volume of the talus, and 10% of the talar dome. Collapse occurred in one patient in the area of the avascular process. There were no observable trends with regard to Hawkins classification, incidence of collapse, or time to operative intervention to the location of the avascular segment. Conclusion: Partial AVN can occur after fracture of the talar neck. The predominant location of the avascular segment was the anterolateral portion of the talar body. This information may be helpful to understanding the process of avascular necrosis of the talar body.

  • Purpose: Microcystic adnexal carcinoma is a rare malignant appendage tumor, first described by Goldstein et al in 1982. Here, we present our experience in treatment of a case on the lower lip. Methods: A 52-year-old female with an asymptomatic nodule on the chin, previously misdiagnosed as trichoadenoma by needle aspiration biopsy, was treated by wide excision combined with multiple circumferential frozen biopsies. Results: Pathological examination revealed typical features of microcystic adnexal carcinoma, such as basaloid and squamous cells forming nests and cord-like patterns, horn cysts, and minimal cytologic atypia. The patient has been followed up for 6 months. No sign of recurrence is noted to date. Conclusion: Differentiation from other benign adnexal neoplasms is important for its appropriate treatment. Differentiation can be difficult histologically because it is difficult to acquire an adequate biopsy due to its invasiveness, and clinically due to its asymptomatic and slow growing features. Complete excision is the key treatment, but it may not always be the best solution considering the huge defect that may result and the low incidence of metastasis & deaths owing to the tumor. We add this case to the approximately 300 cases reported worldwide with a review of literature.

  • 고환 표피 낭종은 드문 양성 종양으로, 모든 고환 종양의 1-2%를 차지한다. 양성 질환으로 고환의 보존이 가능하므로 수술 전에 정확한 진단이 가능하다면 불필요한 고환 절제술을 피할 수 있다. 저자는 오른쪽 음낭의 무통성 종괴로 내원한 18세 남자의 고환 표피 낭종 한 례를 경험하여 보고하고자 한다. 종괴는 초음파상 양파환 징후를 보였고 컴퓨터 단층 촬영에서는 종괴 내부에 곡선의 석회화가 관찰되었다. 자기공명영상 T2 강조영상에서 종괴는 내부에 교차하는 저 신호의 환을 동반하는 고신호 강도로 보였다. 확산강조 영상에서 이 종괴는 고신호 강도를 보이고 현상확산계수(ADC) 영상에서는 낮은 값을 보였으며 이와 같은 소견은 두개내 표피 낭종에서 보고된 바와 동일한 것이다. 기존의 자기공명영상에 확산강조 영상과 현상확산계수 영상을 추가로 시행한다면 고환 표피 낭종의 진단에 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다.
