Single-minded 1 gene (SIM1) is a homolog of Drosophila SIM1 gene which plays a key role in the midline cell lineage of the central nervous system and is implicated in the regulation of feeding behavior and obesity in the human and mouse. In this study, porcine SIM1 gene was firstly mapped to chromosome 1p13 using radiation hybrid (RH) mapping and two polymorphisms were detected at position 607 (A/G) in SIM1 intron7 and position 780 (C/T) in SIM1 exon8. The last substitution was genotyped in a 364 F2 animal-population and an association analysis of these genotypes was performed with growth, carcass and meat quality traits by the statistical animal model. The results showed the significant influence of the SIM1 genotype on growth (p<0.05): live weight at birth, later period of growth and average daily gain; and effects on carcass composition (p<0.05): weight of head and buck kneed foreleg, backfat depth, loin eye area, carcass leaf fat and ham fat weights; and traits related to intramuscular fat content (p<0.05).

An inductively coupled plasma source driven by 13.56MHz was prepared for the deposition of a-C:H thin film. Properties of the plasma source are investigated by fluid simulation including Navier-Stokes equations and home-made tuned single Langmuir probe. Signal attenuation ratios of the Langmuir probe at first and second harmonic frequency were 13.56Mhz and 27.12Mhz respectively. Dependencies of plasma parameters on process parameters were agreed with simulation results. Ar/CH4 plasma simulation results shown that hydrocarbon radical densities have their lowest value at the vicinity of gas feeding line due to high flow velocity. For input power density of 0.07W/cm3, CH radical density qualitatively follows electron density distribution. On the other hand, central region of the chamber become deficient in CH3 radical due to high dissociation rate accompanied with high electron density. The result suggest that optimization of discharge power is important for controlling deposition film quality in high density plasma sources.

The finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method is applied to analyze a single step microstrip discontinuity in the substrate, and an equivalent circuit model comprised of two inductors and a capacitor has been developed using the numerical results. The microstrip discontinuity newly introduced in this paper has a thickness change of the substrate in the longitudinal direction with a uniform strip width. The discontinuity can be applied to the feeding circuit design for the patch antennas and interconnections between microwave circuit modules. The simulation results are compared with those computed by HFSS, and two results showed a good agreement. An equivalent circuit developed from the FDTD results, which is accurate within 2.4% in magnitudes of $S_{11}$ and $S_{21}$,can be applied for the computer-aided design of microwave circuits.

This study consists of two parts. The first discusses the development of a single production forming machine which was reported in earlier papers. The second outlines the development of a multi-production forming machine, which consists primarily of a film feeding unit, an unwinding unit, and a heating block unit. The heating block unit of the multi-production forming machine has 30 members per die. An analysis of the stress deformation and temperature deviation of this machine is carried out using ANSYS Workbench and CFX-11 under the design conditions. According to this analysis, the maximum deflection in the Z-direction is $0.05104{\mu}m$ and the maximum temperature deviation is $0.7^{\circ}C$ when the temperature of the heating block unit is $175^{\circ}C$. It was also found that these values are structurally safe. The advantage of the developed multi-production forming machine is demonstrated to be in its offering of a proper voice test.

In a summer study during May to July, involving 12 young Murrah buffalo bulls at forty months of average age, the effects of multiple shower vs single shower body cooling and vitamin A, D and E supplementation on the sexual behaviour, semen quality and freezability were investigated. The animals were divided into two groups (6 animals in each group) and housed in a half-walled shed with proper spacing, the feeding management being identical. The bulls in the control group were given a single shower at 1000 h, whereas the experimental bulls were given four showers at 10,12,14 and 16 h. In addition, the experimental bulls were given vitamin A, D and E injections at fifteen day intervals. The sexual behaviour of bulls was observed in terms of reaction time, sexual aggressiveness and ejaculatory thrust. Semen quality of all the bulls was assessed in terms of volume, mass activity, live-dead sperm and sperm concentration, sperm motility and morphology, and acrosomal abnormality. The sexual behaviour did not vary significantly between the groups, whereas semen quality differed significantly for volume, per cent live sperms, total sperms per ejaculate and total live sperm per ejaculate between groups. It can be concluded that sexual behaviour was not influenced by the thermal comfort treatment coupled with periodic vitamin A, D and E injections. But the treatments improved most of the seminal traits in the experimental group of bulls. However, benefit of treatment was not reflected in the freezability traits of the semen.

This paper presented a novel approach for the design of a tunable dual-band bandpass filter (BPF) with independently tunable passband center frequencies and bandwidths. The newly proposed dual-band filter principally comprised two dual-mode single band filters using common input/output lines. Each single BPF was realized using a varactor-loaded transmission line resonator. To suppress the harmonics over a broad bandwidth, a defected ground structure was used at the input/output feeding lines. From the experimental results, it was found that the proposed filter exhibited the first passband center frequency tunable range from 1.48 to 1.8 GHz with a 3-dB fractional bandwidth (FBW) variation from 5.76% to 8.55%, while the second passband center's frequency tunable range was 2.40 to 2.88 GHz with a 3-dB FBW variation from 8.28% to 12.42%. The measured results of the proposed filters showed a rejection level of 19 dB up to more than 10 times the highest center frequency of the first passband.

${\beta}$-SiC thin film was deposited on a Si substrate without buffer layer using a single precursor of Hexamethyldisilane (Si2(CH3)6) by chemical vapor deposition method. HCI gas was introduced into hexamethyldisilane /H2 gas mixture, and the feeding schedule of HCI and precursor gases was modified in order to enhance the selectivity of SiC deposition between a Si substrate and a SiO2 mask. The effect of HCI gas on the surface roughness of the SiC film was investigated and typical electrical properties of the SiC film were also investigated by Hall measurement.

The early plasma gastrin responses to single oral glucose or casein solution were studied in the same normal subjects on different days. After an overnight fast, glucose or casein solution was ingested within few minutes at the breakfast time. The plasma gastrin responses to these solutions were compared and contrasted with the concentration when the subjects received glucose solution intravenously. Results were as follows: 1) Rapid intravenous glucose infusion did not produce any changes in the plasma gastrin concentration. 2) Plasma gastrin concentration rose and peaked within 10 minutes after an oral liquid ingestion and then decreased substantially by 15 minutes, but remained slightly above fasting levels at 60 minutes. 3) There was no significant difference between the mean plasma gastrin concentrations after glucose of casein ingestion, but each fluid produced a significant increase in serum gastrin above fasting levels. 4) The subjects who produced high plasma gastrin response to glucose solution did so to casein solution. Conversely a low response to one solution reflected a low response to the other solution. 5) From the above results, authors discussed that individual responsibility rather than the sorts of meals is the factor in the determination of the magnitude of the early gastrin response.

The first description of the pathologic anatomy of esophageal atresia was presented by Duration in 1670, it was not successfully treated until 1939 when the first two survivors of staged correction were described by Ladd and Levin. In 1941 Haight and Towsley performed the first successful primary repair. Recently we were experienced a case of esophageal atresia with tracheoesophageal fistula an infant patient who presented the symptoms of vomiting and dyspnea. The diagnosis was made by the esophagography with Diagnosis. The operation was performed extrapleurally through 4th intercostal space after gastrostomy. The fistula was closed by triple ligation and the upper pouch was then brought into apposition with the presenting surface of the lower esophageal segment and an end to side anastomosis was fashioned with a single layer of sutures. Operative patient tolerated all the operative procedure well in spite of postoperative respiratory complication and recovered uneventfully, permitted feeding on 9th postoperative day after esophagography.
