The Purpose of this study was to confirm the effect of Havruta-problem-making consisting of extracurricular activities in pathology classes on nursing students' learning attitude, learning commitment, and self-directed learning ability. Data collection was conducted from August 25 to December 23, 2023 for 84 nursing students in the M University. Paired t-test was conducted on the collected data using the SPSS/WIN 20 program. As a result of the study, learning attitudes (t=-2.00, p=.046), learning flow(t=-1.54, p=.124) and self-directed learning ability (t=-.63, p=.529) were statistically significantly improved by applying Harbuta-problem making. Since Havruta-problem making has been identified as an effective teaching method for nursing students, a study is suggested to confirm the difference between grades. In addition, there is a lack of research that measures the learning attitudes of college students, so repetitive research is needed.

Objectives: Periodic leg movements in sleep (PLMS) might be subdivided based upon whether or not they are associated with visible EEG microarousals (MA). MA is considered to be responsible for nonrestorative sleep and daytime fatigue. The American Sleep Disorders Association's (ASDA) scoring rules for MA based on visual analysis of the EEG changes suggest that MA should last more than 3 seconds. However, it has been suggested that visual analysis may not detect some changes in EEG activity. This study is aimed at measuring changes in EEG spectra during PLMS without MA in order to better understand the arousing response of PLMS. Methods: Ten drug-free patients (three men and seven women) diagnosed with PLMS by polysomnography were studied. Spectral analysis of the EEG was performed in each patient on 30 episodes of PLMS without MA, chosen randomly across the night in stage 2 non-REM sleep. We applied stricter criteria for MA compared to ASDA, by defining it as a return to alpha and theta frequency lasting at least 1 second. Results: The mean PLMS index was $16.7{\pm}10.0$. The mean PLMS duration was $1.3{\pm}0.7$ seconds. Comparison of 4-second EEG activity both before and after the onset of PLMS without MA using independent t-test showed that the movements were associated with significant increase of relative activity in the delta band (p=0.000) and significant decrease of activity in the alpha (p=0.01) and sigma (p=0.000) bands. No significant decrease in the theta (p=0.05), beta (p=0.129), or gamma (p=0.062) bands was found. Conclusion: PLMS without MA was found to be associated with EEG change characterized by increase in the delta frequency band. This finding seems to be compatible with the hypothesis of an integrative hierarchy of arousal responses of Sforza's. Considering that the subjects had lower PLMS index and shorter PLMS duration than those of the previous study, it is suggested that an even less severe form of PLMS without MA could induce neurophysiologic change, which may potentially be of clinical significance.

YBa$_2$Cu$_3$$O_{7-x}$ (YBCO) films were deposited on MgO(100) and SrTiO$_3$(100) single crystal substrates by cold-wall type MOCVD method using continuous source supplying system. Under the deposition temperature of 740∼76$0^{\circ}C$, c-axis oriented YBCO films were obtained. In case of the YBCO films deposited on MgO (100) single crystal substrate, the critical temperature (T$_{c}$) was under 81 K regardless of the deposition conditions, whereas T$_{c}$ of the YBCO films deposited on SrTiO$_3$(100) single crystal substrate was 83∼84 K. The critical current (I$_{c}$) of the YBCO film deposited on SrTiO$_3$(100) single crystal substrate for 30 min was 49 A/cm-width and the critical current density (J$_{c}$) was 0.82 MA/$\textrm{cm}^2$ to film thickness of 0.6 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. I$_{c}$ increased to 84.4 A/cm-width as the deposition time increased to 50 min, but J$_{c}$ decreased to 0.53 MA/$\textrm{cm}^2$ to film thickness of 1.8 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$.rm}{m}$.

Neoporphyra kitoi Ma. Abe, N. Kikuchi, Tamaki, Tom. Sato, Murase, Fujiyoshi & Mas. Kobayashi has been known as an endemic species in Japan. Its high temperature tolerance suggests that it could be advantageous for cultivation. In this study, we collected it from the Ulleungdo island, Korea and transferred it into Pyropia for a new combination, identified as Pyropia kitoi(Ma. Abe, N. Kikuchi, Tamaki, Tom. Sato, Murase, Fujiyoshi & Mas. Kobayashi) D.J. Kim, T.O. Cho & B.Y. Won comb. nov. based on morphological and molecular analyses. Pyropia kitoi is also reported as a new record species in the list of Korean macroalgal flora. Although we didn't observe the emergence of new blades from the rhizoidal cells, which is a key character for this species, our molecular analysis of rbcL revealed that our samples from Korea were congruent with "Neoporphyra kitoi" from Japan and were nested within the clade of Pyropia. The gene sequence divergence between the Korean and Japanese samples was 0-0.2%.

The blood clam, Tegillarca granosa, is economically important in marine bivalve and is used in fisheries industry among western Pacific Ocean Coasts especially in Korea, China, and Japan. The number of chromosomes in the blood clam is known as 2n=38, but the genome size and genetic information of the genome are not still clear. In order to predict the genomic size of the T. granosa, the in-silico analysis analysed the genomic size using short DNA sequence information obtained using the NGS Illumina HiSeq platform. As a result, the genomic size of T. granosa was estimated to be 770.61 Mb. Subsequently, a draft genome assembly was performed through the MaSuRCA assembler, and a simple sequence repeat (SSR) analysis was done by using the QDD pipeline. 43,944 SSRs were detected from the genome of T. granosa and 69.51% di-nucleotide, 16.68% trinucleotide, 12.96% tetra-nucleotide, 0.82% penta-nucleotide, and 0.03% hexa-nucleotide were consisted. 100 primer sets that could be used for genetic diversity studies were selected. In the future, this study will help identify the genetic diversity of T. granosa and population genetic studies, and further identify the classification of origin between homogenous groups.

Purpose : The purpose of this study is to prevent thc graft-tunnel mismatch by measuring the patellar tendon length, intertunnel distance, tibial tunnel length and by obtaining appropriate bone block length. Materials and Methods : Authors analyzed 15 patients who had taken the anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction from March 1997 to June 1999. Tibial guide was always set on the "endo" $40^{\circ}$ position(Acufex, MA, USA). We measured the following indices, intertunnel distance(X), tibial tunnel length(T), patellar tendon length(N), tibia bone plug length(Y). Both of the femoral tunnel length(F) and the patellar bone plug length(P) were made in 25mm. The appropriate tibial bone plug length was simply calculated by subtracting the patellar tendon length from the sum of the intertunnel distance and thc tibial tunnel length(Y=X+T-N). Results : The average indices were as follows ; the intertunnel distance(X) was $23.4{\pm}1.4mm$, the tibial tunnel length(T) was $43.6{\pm}1.7mm$, the patellar tendon length was $40{\pm}2.4mm$, and the tibia bone plug length was $27{\pm}2.4mm$. Conclusion : In authors' endoscopic technique, establishment of individually determined optimal tibial bone plug length, based on total tunnel length and patellar tendon length could prevent the problem of graft-tunnel mismatch.

Basically, the lattice mismatch between film and substrate can make those BiFeO3(BFO) films distorted with strain structure. BFO phase can be stabilized on LaAlO3(LAO) represents the example of a multiferroic with giant axial ratio. Its crystal structure is not strictly tetragonal, but tetragonal with a slight monoclinic distortion and related to the rotation of the oxygen octahedra. In this study, we show that phases with a tetragonal-like epitaxial BFO films can indeed be ferroelectric and also can be stabilized via epitaxial growth onto LAO. Recent reports on epitaxial BFO films show that the crystal structure changes from nearly rhombohedral ("R-like") to nearly tetragonal("T-like") at strains exceeding approximately -4.5%, with the "T-like" structure being characterized by a highly enhanced c/a ratio. While both the "R-like" and the "T-like" phases are monoclinic, our detailed x-ray diffraction results reveal asymmetry change from MA and MC type, respectively. By applying additional strain or by modifying the unit cell volume of the film by substituting Ba for Bi, the monoclinic distortion in the "T-like" MC phase is reduced, i.e. the system approaches a true tetragonal symmetry. There are two different M-H loops for $Bi_{1-x}Ba_xFeO_{3-{\delta}}$(BBFO) and BFO films on SrTiO3(STO) & LAO substrates. Along with the ferroelectric characterization, these magnetic data indicate that the BFO phase stabilized on LAO represents the first example of a multiferroic with giant axial ratio. However, there is a significant difference between this phase and other predicted ferroelectrics with a giant axial ratio: its crystal structure is not strictly tetragonal, but tetragonal with a slight monoclinic distortion. Therefore, in going from bulk to highly-strained films, a phase sequence of rhombohedral(R)-to-monoclinic ["R-like" MA-to-monoclinic, "T-like" MC-to-tetragonal (T)] is observed. This sequence is otherwise seen only near morphotropic phase boundaries in lead-based solid-solution perovskites (i.e. near a compositionally induced phase instability), where it can be controlled by electric field, temperature, or composition. Our results show that this evolution can occur in a lead-free, stoichiometric material and can be induced by stress alone. Those major results are summarized as follows ; 1) Ba-doping increases the unit cell volume, 2) BBFO on LAO can be fully strained up to x=0.08 as a strain limit (Fig. 1), 3) P(E) & M(H) properties can be tuned by the variation of composition, strain, and film thickness.

Failure phenomena in uni-axial tension test were experimentally and numerically investigated for AA6111-T4, AA5083-H18 and DP-Steel, which were friction-stir welded with the same and different thicknesses. Forming limit diagram(FLD) was measured using hemispherical dome stretching tests for base materials and also predicted by Hill's bifurcation and M-K theories for welded areas. Finite element simulations well predicted hardening behaviors, failure locations as well as failure patterns for the uni-axial tension tests especially utilizing very fine meshes and FLD along with stress softening.
