본 연구에서는 비파괴검사 방법의 하나인 gamma scanning test에 의한 대단위 차폐체의 결함을 평가하는 방법을 제시하고 방사선 차폐를 해석하는 유용한 방법중의 하나인 Monte Carlo 코드로 이에 대한 검증을 하였다. Gamma scanning test로 차폐체의 결함을 평가하기 위한 모델은 원통형 차폐체를 대상으로 하였다. 먼저 방사성물질 운반용기에 대한 설계기준에 따라 기준차폐체를 설치하여 Co-60 선원과 섬광계수기로 기준치를 측정하고, 그 다음 실물의 원통형 차폐체를 측정하였다. 기준치로 원통형 차폐체의 납두께를 환산한 결과 결함두께는 최대 12mm로 평가되었다. 이를 검증하기 위한 MCNP 코드의 계산에서는 결함두께가 실험적 결과에 비해 4.1%에 해당하는 최대 11.6mm를 나타내었으며, 두 결과가 만족할 정도로 일치함을 보여주고 있다. 따라서 이러한 평가방법은 방사성물질을 사용하는 시설에 설치되는 대단위 방사선 차폐체나 대용량의 운반용기 차폐능 검사시 현장에서 적용시킬 수 있으며 측정치의 신뢰도를 제고할 수 있다. 앞으로 보다 정확한 측정을 위하여 차폐체의 두께 측정결과가 화면에 직접 표시되는 측정장치의 연구 개발이 요구된다.

Objectives: This study measured the thickness of the abdominal wall at abdominal acupoints using ultrasonography and then investigated the correlations between the thickness of the abdominal wall and other characteristics of patients with functional dyspepsia (FD). Methods: Thirty patients with FD were enrolled in the study from September 2015 to March 2016. The thickness of the abdominal wall was measured at Shangwan (CV12), Zhongwan (CV13), and the left Liangmen (ST21). In addition, height, weight, body mass index (BMI), duration of FD, and the sternocostal angle were investigated. The severities of spleen qi deficiency and the dyspepsia symptoms were assessed by the Spleen Qi Deficiency Questionnaire (SQDQ) and the Nepean Dyspepsia Index-Korean version (NDI-K). Results: The average thickness of the abdominal wall was $24.66{\pm}6.69mm$ at Shangwan, $21.17{\pm}5.83mm$ at Zhongwan, and $21.72{\pm}5.72mm$ at Linagmen, and there were significant differences between the thickness at Shangwan and Zhongwan (p=0.046). Furthermore, there were significant differences between the thickness of the abdominal wall at Zhongwan and the sternocostal angle (r=0.396, p=0.037). Conclusions: These findings indicate the possibility of estimating the thickness of the abdominal wall by looking at the characteristics of patients with FD, including the sternocostal angle.

Through the study on judgment of Body form and settle Energy flow(立形定氣) before diagnose the patients, the results are as follows. The observation of the body form is to determine prosperity and deficiency of each internal organ. It is necessary to distinguish Body form loss(形脫) and Body form fullness(形充). Fat man(肥人), Thin man(瘦人), Creamy man(膏人), Muscular man(肉人), Small Fat man(脂人) are discriminated by fat distribution, fat content, and muscle mass. The observation of the body form means the observation of structure disorder, color change, develop part at body, head and face. The observation of the body form that is to determine prosperity and deficiency of each internal organ is from the limited knowledge of the anatomy. The observation of face color is considered by blood perfusion, blood oxygenation and accumulation of carotinoid, bilirubin and change of melanin in the facial skin. The prosperity and the deficiency of energy flow is considered by symptom combined with growth (<40 years) and aging (>40 years). The prosperity of energy flow includes the anger, anxious emotion and the deficiency of energy flow includes the fear, depressive emotion. The breathing type is expiratory exhalation like asthma patients in the prosperity of energy flow. The deficiency of energy flow is weakness to overcome the disease. The prosperity and the deficiency of energy flow are considered by body metabolic ratios (Basal metabolic Rate: BMR, Resting metabolic rate: RMR, Physical activity ratios: PASs). Development of subcutaneous fat is good in the person of prosperous energy flow. The person of prosperous energy flow is hard to overcome to heat weather than cold weather. The person of deficiency of energy flow has tendencies of low blood pressure, insufficiency of blood flow in the peripheral and being shocked. The person of deficiency of energy flow has tendencies of chronic fatigue syndrome or automatic nerve disorder. If the patient who has deficiency of energy flow has severe weight loss should be checked for the presence of disease. The observation of small and large of bone is to check the development and disorder of bone growth and aging. The observation of thickness and weakness of muscle is to check the development of muscle, particularly biceps, gastrocnemius, and rectus abdominal muscle. The observation of thickness and weakness of skin is to check the ability of regulating body temperature by sweating.

Effect of thickness on ZnO properties including the compositional ratio and crystallinity has been systematically investigated using a variety of characterization tools of x-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, x-ray fluorescence and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Interestingly, it was observed that ZnO films below 80 nm in thickness were in oxygen deficiency, while the oxygen ratio was increased in the films above the thickness, although the compositional ratio of ZnO film was not linearly varied with increasing film thickness. Also, ZnO crystallinity, which is characterized by (002) diffraction pattern, was clearly improved with increasing film thickness. The properties of ZnO film with different sputtering time and the nature of direct current reactive sputtering process were discussed in terms of compositional ratio, especially oxygen ratio in ZnO film.

목적: 콘택트렌즈 피팅 시 렌즈 관련 사양의 변화에 따라 다른 값을 가지는 각막에서 산소부족이 없는 최소 Dk값 및 산소농도를 계산/확인할 수 있는 프로그램을 수립하고자 하였다. 방법: 엑셀 프로그램을 이용하여 콘택트렌즈착용 시 렌즈 아래 형성되는 눈물층의 두께와 Dk값을 계산할 수 있는 방정식을 세우고 수치 계산 모델을 확립하였다. 결과: 렌즈사양을 변화시키면 렌즈 아래 눈물층의 두께가 변하며 이에 따라 산소투과도가 다르게되므로 각막이 요구하는 최소 산소농도 역시 달라짐을 계산으로 확인하였으며, 눈물층의 두께를 위한 계산 프로그램은 눈물층의 형태에 따라 다르게 선택되어야 함을 밝혔다. 즉, flat 피팅 시에는 렌즈가장자리와 각막이 만나서 만들어지는 오목면의 형태에 따라 렌즈 아래 눈물층의 두께가 결정되며, flat하게 피팅 될수록 각막주변부 표면의 산소농도는 감소되어 계산값으로는 (-)가 되며 실제로는 산소농도는 0이 된다. Tight 피팅 시 각막표면의 산소를 계산하면 tight 피팅으로 눈물층의 두께가 렌즈의 두께보다 극단적으로 두꺼워지게 되어 계산값은 역시 (-)가 되며 각막 표면의 산소 농도는 0이 되어 산소결핍을 야기하게 됨을 알 수 있다. 결론: 콘택트렌즈의 변수를 조절하여 피팅 상태를 변경할 때에는 눈물층의 두께와 이에 따른 각막표면의 산소농도를 정확하게 계산하여 산소결핍이 나타나는 일이 없도록 하여야 한다.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common skin disease characterized by chronic and relapsing inflammatory dermatitis with immunological disturbances. Spleen deficiency (脾虛) is one of the major causes of AD, so development of animal model is required for AD research that reflects the pattern identification. The groups that we have used in this study included Senna folium extracts (SFE), 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB), and normal mice. Therefore, the present study was developed to atopic dermatitis mouse model with spleen deficiency in 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB) and senna leaves extracts induced AD in NC/Nga mice. The results demonstrated that senna leaves extract treatment significantly increased the dermatitis clinical score and epidermal thickness in AD-like skin lesions. We also proved beyond doubt that there was occurrence of erythema and skin moisture indices in the senna leaves extract groups. Further, we also found that the level of serum immunoglobulin E (IgE) in the senna leaves extract-treated group was increased. The amount of IL-4, IL-13, $TNF-{\alpha}$ and $TGF-{\beta}$ mRNA determined by real-time PCR was increased remarkably when senna leaves extract groups were treated on dorsal skin. Senna leaves extract groups significantly promoted the number of CD11B+/Gr-1 cell in skin, as well as the number of CD4+/CD8+ cell in dorsal skin compared with control. The review summarizes recent process in our understanding of the immunopathophysiology of spleen deficiency AD and the implications for spleen deficiency mouse models of AD on drug discovery from medical plants.

Background: Estrogen deficiency affects the structure and function of the salivary glands in women, leading to a decrease in salivary secretion and a change in the composition of saliva. Previous studies on changes in the salivary glands that cause estrogen deficiency have reported only partial results for the parotid and submandibular glands, and there are few comparative morphological studies of histological changes between the parotid and submandibular glands in ovariectomized rats (OVX) leading to estrogen deficiency. This study aimed to analyze the histopathological and histochemical changes in the parotid and submandibular salivary glands causing estrogen deficiency by using OVX, and to discuss the mechanism on these changes. Methods: The parotid and submandibular glands from sacrificed control and OVX groups were fixed with cold 4% paraformaldehyde in phosphate buffer (pH 7.2). The tissues were dehydrated using a series of graded ethyl alcohol and embedded in paraffin. For histopathological analysis, sections cut to a thickness of 6 to 7 ㎛ were stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E). For histochemical analysis, Periodic acid-Schiff (PAS), Alcian blue (AB, pH 2.5), and PAS+AB (pH 2.5 and pH 1) staining was performed. Results: Histopathological analysis of OVX tissue showed that the parotid and submandibular salivary glands were broadly and clearly separated and divided into lobes. In OVX, acinar and ductal cells with condensed polymorphic or pyknotic nucleus, which are presumed to be characteristic of apoptotic cells, and degenerated cells with lipid deposition in cytoplasmic granules and ruptured membranes were increased. Histochemical analysis of OVX, confirmed an increase in the number and acidification of acinar secretory granules. Conclusion: Histopathological and histochemical changes and the effects of estrogen deficiency are more evident in the submandibular salivary gland than in the parotid gland.

This study was peformed to investigate the morbidity of nutritional secondary hyperparathyroidism(NSH) caused by imbalance of Ca and p, and related athletic disease in Cheju pony racehorse. The seventeen horses with clinical signs among 33 NSH affected, administered CaCO$_3$(34 g) and Vita-rinka1(120 g) respectively for 40 days. The results were asd follows; Morbidity of NSR was 33 among 47 horses, and it was caused by the deficiency of Ca in 32 horses. In a case, level of Ca was norm질 although P was high. There was no case of Ca deficiency with P excess. Among 33 NSH affected horses, 13 were subclinical and 20 were clinical types with severe lameness in 6 and transient lameness in 14. Although there was no difference in bone density between transient lameness and normal horses on radiography, among six horses wlth severe lameness two showed hyperplasia at periosteum, one had low density of phalanges and metacarpal bones, and thin cortex. and there with fracture at carpus, nivicular bone and proximal sesamoids. The levels of FECa and FEP were recovered after CaCO$_3$ administration in 2 horses among ten, and after Vita-rinkal in all of seven. The clinical signs were disappeared in slx horses among ten CaCO$_3$ treated, and in five among seven Vita-rinkal treated. There were no differences on radiography in bone density and thickness of cortex on 14 horses with transient lameness. Three horses with severe signs were recovered to normal bone density and thickness of cortex, and there was no significant difference between two groups. In summary, the morbidity of NSH in Cheju pony racehorses was relatively high because of deficiency of Ca. Constant admistration of Ca supplements is desirable to treat and prevent athletic disease development in Cheju racehorses.

Cattle in Alaska seemed to be tolerant to low blood selenium (Se) although arctic winter energy demands might exacerbate oxidative damage to tissues lacking protection by Se. The thermogenic properities of brown adipose tissue (BAT) and the long cold adaptation period for Alaskan cattle indicates that they might develop BAT. Eighteen mature beef cows with whole blood Se of< 19 ppb were used to examine possible relation-ships among Se deficiency, tissue lesions, and observable BAT. All cows were wintered on a diet low in Se and nine cows were given supplemental Se provided by intraruminal bolus. Blood Se was elevated (p < .05) from November through February by supplemental Se, but body weight and back fat thickness were unaffected (p < .10). Tissues were taken from two Se deficient cows, two cows supplemented with Se, and two cows given large doses of Se (300 mg by injection) four weeks before slaughter. Histopathological examination of 187 samples of fat (7 to 55 from each cow) showed no observable amount of BAT. Examination of other tissues showed no lesions attributable to Se deficiency.
