Background : This study was designed to examine how glutathione, one of the nucleophilic sulfur compounds, effects the cisplatin cellular toxicity in the non-small cell lung cancer cell lines and normal lung epithelial cell line. Materials and Methods : Three cultured cell lines, the lung adenocarcinoma cell(NCL-H23), the lung squamous carcinoma cell(SK-MES-1) and the normal lung epithelial cell(L-132) line were exposed to various concentrations of cisplatin with or without glutathione. The relative viability was estimated as a means of measuring the cisplatin cellular toxicity using the MTT method. Results : In NCI-23, the response to cisplatin was sensitive but glutathione markedly increased the relative survival of the tumor cells by removing the antitumor effect of cisplatin. In both SK-MES-1 and L-132, the responses to cisplatin were less sensitive, and the chemoprotective effect of glutathione compared to and equal cisplatin dose was significantly higher in L-132 than in SK-MES-1(p<0.05). Conclusion : The protective effectes of of glutathione on cisplatin-induced cellular toxicity is more significant in normal lung epithelial cells than in squamous carcinoma cells.

This study was performed to investigate the effect of dried powder of chestnut on lipid metabolism, anti-thrombotic effect in rats. Thirty 5-week-old male Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were randomly allocated into five groups and used for experiment. We examined the lipid metabolism and antithrombotic capacity of SD rats administered for 5 weeks with 0.16 g/kg, 0.5 g/kg chestnut flesh powder and 0.16 g/kg, 0.5 g/kg chestnut inner shell and flesh powder mixture, respectively. Food intake, body weight gain and food efficiency ratio were also checked. The levels of serum triglyceride and tree fatty acid were not statistically significant between the all experimental groups. However, the antithrombotic capacity and total lipid levels of the treatment groups were significantly lower than those of the negative control group. These results suggest that the supplementation of chestnut on diet lower the total lipid level in SD rats.

The purpose of this study is to measure the (air dose rate of radiation dose) the discharged patient who was administrated high dose $^{131}I$ treatment, and to predict exposure radiation dose in public person. The dosimetric evaluation was performed according to the distance and angle using three copper rings in 30 patients who were treated with over 200mCi high dose Iodine therapy. The two observer were measured using a GM surverymeter with 8 point azimuth angle and three difference distance 50, 100, 150cm for precise radion dose measurement. We set up three predictive simulations to calculate the exposure dose based on this data. The most highest radiation dose rate was showed measuring angle $0^{\circ}$ at the height of 1m. The each distance average dose rate was used the azimuth angle average value of radiation dose rate. The maximum values of the external radiation dose rate depending on the distance were $214{\pm}16.5$, $59{\pm}9.1$ and $38{\pm}5.8{\mu}Sv/h$ at 50, 100, 150cm, respectively. If high dose Iodine treatment patient moves 5 hours using public transportation, an unspecified person in a side seat at 50cm is exposed 1.14 mSv radiation dose. A person who cares for 4days at a distance of 1 meter from a patient wearing a urine bag receives a maximum radiation dose of 6.5mSv. The maximum dose of radiation that a guardian can receive is 1.08mSv at a distance of 1.5m for 7days. The annual radiation dose limit is exceeded in a short time when applied the our developed radiation dose predictive modeling on the general public person who was around the patients with Iodine therapy. This study can be helpful in suggesting a reasonable guideline of the general public person protection system after discharge of high dose Iodine administered patients.

This study begins with the assumption that the existing impact analysis studies did not present determinate criteria on which the studies were based. After we criticized the limitations of existing studies, we presented goal-based criteria and evaluated the long-term job-seekers subsidy as a case. This evaluation study is of micro-effect analysis which focuses on the effects on subsidized employees and employers. The Findings are: The subsidized employees were appropriately selected and can be taken as having difficulties in the labour market. The employment effect of the subsidy was significantly positive, though the wage effect was significantly negative. The effect of maintaining of skill measured by occupational mobility was positive, but not significant. The effect of increasing the quantity of employments in the subsidized companies were found significant. It could be proposed from the findings that the wage subsidy for the frail labour force is so effective as the subsidy for the employed labour force and could be boosted.

지하수 함양량을 산정하기 위해서 유역물수지 모형 또는 지하수위 변동곡선법등이 활용되어 왔으며, 각각의 장단점에 대한 많은 논의가 있었다. 지역내의 지하수 관리계획을 위해서는 유역물수지 모형이 적합한 반면, 실제(actual) 함양량의 정확성 문제가 있으며, 지하수위 변동곡선법은 실제 지하수의 증감을 통해 실제 함양변화를 잘 표현하는 반면, 그 영향권이 관측공에 의해 제한된다는 단점이 있다. 이와 같은 두 방법의 장점을 살리고 단점을 보완하기 위해 본 연구에서는 유역유출모의와 지하수위 변동을 동시에 고려하여 지하수 함양량을 추정하는 방안을 제시하였다. 수문학적 과정으로 함양을 분석하기 위해 준분포형 수문모형인 SWAT과 완전분포형 지하수 유동해석 모형인 MODFLOW의 결합모형을 이용한 유역단위 유출해석을 수행한다. 실제로 하천변에 위치한 관측공에서의 지하수위는 하천유출시계열과 유사한 양상을 보이며, 상류 경사지에 위치한 관측공의 지하수위는 토양수의 지체와 감수현상을 나타내므로 이같이 시간적으로 상이한 지체 양상을 반영하기 위해 모형내의 비포화대를 통과하는 함양의 거동을 기존의 단일 저수지 모형에서 다단 저수지 모형으로 개선하고 지체함수와 관련된 매개변수를 보정함으로써 모의 함양 시계열과 관측 지하수위 시계열간의 상관성 분석을 수행할 수 있다. 아울러 모의 및 관측 지하수위 분포의 비교를 통해 공간적인 지하수 분포에 대한 검증을 수행함으로써 함양량 산정 절차가 완성된다. 이같은 일련의 절차는 기존의 유역물수지 모형과 지하수위 변동법을 동시에 고려한 새로운 방식의 지하수 함양량 산정기법으로 제시할 수 있을 것이다.성빈맥(1예), 저심박출증(3예), 재수술이 필요했던 출혈(2예), 흉골 지연봉합(2예), 급성 신부전(2예), 폐렴(1예), 대동맥내 풍선펌프로 인한 혈전색전증(1예),수술 후 섬망(2예) 등이 있었다. 생존한 10명의 환자들 중 1명을 제외한 나머지 9명의 환자에서 $38{\pm}40$개월간의 추적관찰이 되었는데, 추적 관찰 기간 중에 3명이 사망하였고 생존한 6명의 환자는 모두 양호한 상태(NYHA 기능등급, $I{\sim}II$)를 보였으며, 그 중 3명에서는 혈역학적으로 큰 의미가 없는 잔여단락이 있었다. 결론: 급성 심근경색증 후 심실중격 결손은 수술위험도가 높은 질환이지만, 수술 전 대동맥내 풍선펌프를 삽입하고 조기에 심실중격 결손부의 infarct exclusion 술식과 함께 관상동맥우회술을 시행함으로써 만족할 만한 수술 및 중기 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.출물 투여로 저하되었으나 NC군보다는 높게 나타났다. 간 중 중성지질 함량은 참나물 에탄올 추출물 투여 용량에 따른 유의차가 없었으나, 총콜레스테롤 함량은 고용량 병합투여한 HC-PBH군만 유의하게 저하되었다. 혈청 및 간 중의 지질 함량 변화는 정상식이를 급여한 NC군과 NC-PB군 간에는 유의차가 없었다. 따라서 고콜레스테롤식이를 급여하면서 참나물 에탄올 추출물을 병합투여 시에만 지질대사 개선 효과가 있는 것으로 여겨지며, 고용량 병합투여 시 효능이 더 큰 것으로 나타났다. 고콜레스테롤식이로 인한 산화적 스트레스가 고콜레스테롤혈증을 유발하였으며, 이는 참나물 에탄올 추출물에 함유된 항산화물질을 포함한 여러 생리활성물질

This study was performed to investigate the effect of ethanol extract of Pimpinella brachycarpa (PB) on serum and liver lipid metabolism in rats. Male Sprague Dawley rats were administered 1% cholesterol and 0.25% sodium cholate to induce hypercholesterolemia. PB ethanol extract (200 mg/kg/day or 400 mg/kg/day) was also administered orally to rats with high cholesterol diet for 6 weeks. We divided 40 rats into five groups; normal diet group (NC), high cholesterol diet group (HC), normal diet and PB ethanol extract (200 mg/kg) administered group (NC-PB), high cholesterol diet and PB ethanol extract (200 mg/kg) administered group (HC-PBL), and high cholesterol diet and PB ethanol extract (400 mg/kg) administered group (HC-PBH). The growth rate and liver weight of the high cholesterol diet group was higher than those of the normal diet group, whereas those of the groups administered PB ethanol extract were gradually decreased. There was a signigicant increase in the activities of serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), asparate aminotransferase (AST) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in the high cholesterol diet group. The administration of PB ethanol extract decreased serum ALT, AST and ALP activities in a dose-dependent manners. The high cholesterol diet group showed increased serum triglyceride, total cholesterol, free cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol levels, and decreased atherogenic index, HDL-cholesterol and phospholipid levels as compared with the normal diet group. PB ethanol extract administrated groups showed increased HDL-C/T-C, HDL-cholesterol and phospholipid levels, and decreased serum triglyceride, total cholesterol, free cholesterol, and LDL-cholesterol levels as compared with the high cholesterol diet group. There were no differences in the concentrations of serum triglyceride, phopholipid, LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol and free cholesterol between normal diet groups. The hepatic concentrations of total cholesterol and triglyceride were also lower in PB ethanol extract administrated groups than in the high cholesterol diet group. These results suggest that ethanol extract of PB exerts hypocholesterolemic effect by reducing serum and liver cholesterol contents.

Background: Recently, many cardiac centers have been using aprotinin to reduce operative bleeding in cardiac operations using cardiopulmonary bypass. A variety of reports have confirmed the effectiveness of the drug in cardiac operations. In addition to the operations which could be considered to cause severe operative bleeding such as redo operation, long cardiopulmonary bypass operation and etc, the use of aprotinin is increasing in the field of primary cardiac operations. Varying doses of regimen have been introduced since the first report by Royston et al, and also various opinions on the effectiveness and safeness of the each regimen have been reported. We reviewed our own experience of the full dose aprotinin regimen(Hammersmith regimen) retrospectively. Material and Method: From October 1994 to February 1998, 40 cases of cardiac operative patients were randomized into two groups: aprotinin group(20 patients) which received a full dose aprotinin regimen and control group(20 patients) which did not receive aprotinin. To evaluate the degree of bleeding decrease, we analysed and compared the amount of postoperative 6 hours and 24 hours bleeding in the each group. To confirm the renal dysfunction, we measured the postoperative creatinine level. Result: In the amount of postoperative 6 hours bleeding, a statistically significant bleeding decrease was demonstrated in the aprotinin group compared to the control group(aprotinin group: 186${\pm}$40cc, control group:409${\pm}$69cc, P=0.010). Similar result was observed in the postoperative 24 hours(aprotinin group:317${\pm}$53cc, control group: 671${\pm}$133cc, P=0.024). Conclusion: We concluded that full dose regimen of aprotinin can remarkably reduce postoperative bleeding in cardiac operations without significant renal dysfunctions.

4차 산업혁명으로 기존 일자리가 사라지고 있으며, 보다 창의적인 진로전략이 요구되고 있다. 기존의 진로전략이 구직(求職), 즉 '직업을 찾는다.'는 개념이었다면, 4차 산업혁명 시대의 중요한 진로전략인 창직은 구직의 틀에서 벗어나 개인이 직업을 적극적으로 발굴하고 일자리를 창출하는데 초점을 두고 있다. 즉, 개인이 직업을 '발굴하고', '선택한다.'는 점이 중요하며, 구직이 '남이 나를 고용한다.'는데 의미가 있다면, 창직은 '내가 나를 고용한다.'는 점에서 구직자의 주체적이고 적극적인 의지를 더욱 필요로 하고 있다. 창직교육을 통해 청소년이 자신의 진로를 직접 발굴하고 선택할 수 있는 진로결정 자기효능감의 향상이 자기고용을 이루기 위한 주체적이고 적극적인 의지를 반영하는 창업의지에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위해 본 연구를 진행하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 창직교육 프로그램을 처치한 실험집단은 총 293명으로 검증 시 진로결정 자기효능감, 대인관계기술, 자기주도 학습력, 기업가정신, 기회발견, 기회활용, 사회적 문제해결력, 창의성역량, 창업의지 전 항목에서 통계적으로 유의한 수준에서 평균값의 상승을 보였다. 창직교육 프로그램을 처치하지 않은 통제집단은 총 85명으로 사전/사후의 평균값이 미미한 수준의 차이를 보였다. 실험집단은 통제집단에 비해 자기주도 학습력과 창의성역량이 매우 두드러지게 향상되었고, 진로결정 자기효능감과 창업의지가 두드러지게 향상되었다. 반면, 통제집단은 실험집단과 비교하여 자기주도 학습력과 창의성역량이 미약하게 향상되었고, 진로결정 자기효능감도 미약하게 향상되었으나 오히려 창업의지는 감소하였다. 본 연구로 창직교육을 통한 자기주도 학습력과 창의성역량의 향상이 진로결정 자기효능감과 창업의지에 매개변수가 되어, 진로결정 자기효능감과 창업의지를 향상시켰음을 알 수 있다.

This paper proposes a high capacity data hiding method using modulus function of pixel-value differencing (PVD) and least significant bit (LSB) replacement method. Many novel data hiding methods based on LSB and PVD methods were presented to enlarge hiding capacity and provide an imperceptible quality. A small difference value for two consecutive pixels is belonged to a smooth area and a large difference one is located on an edge area. In our proposed method, the secret data are hidden on the smooth area by the LSB substitution method and PVD method on the edge area. From the experimental results, the proposed method sustains a higher capacity and still a good quality compared with other LSB and modified PVD methods.

Even if it is important to transmit high rate multimedia information without any transmission errors for surveillance systems, it is difficult to achieve error-free transmission due to infra-less adhoc networks. In order to reduce the transmission errors furthermore, additional signal overheads or retransmission of signals should be required, but they may lead to transmission delay. This paper represents a study on low delay and adaptive video transmission for the unmanned surveillance systems by developing system protocols. In addition, we introduce an efficient and adaptive control algorithm using system parameters for exploiting unmanned surveillance system properly over multi-channels.
