미국 오하이오주 남서쪽에 위치한 Seip 토루군(100 B.C.-A.D. 500경)의 출토유물들에 대하여 현미경으로 관찰되는 인피섬유의 형태학적 손상을 분석하였다. 형태학적 손상이란 외부로부터의 물리적 혹은 화학적 요인에 의해 섬유은 표면과 내면에 발생하는 형태변형을 말한다. Seip직물에 포함된 인피섬유의 형태학적 손상 정도는 본 연구를 위해 제작된 인피섬유손상지로(IBFM)의 점수의 합으로 나타내었다. Seip직물들은 육안으로 보았을 때 우선 숯과 같이 검은 색을 띄고 있는 직물들과 그렇지 않은 직물군으로 분류되었는데 발굴보고서에 설명된 시신과 관련 부장품들의 수습상황으로 미루어 볼 때 검게 된 직물군은 부분적으로 하장된 시신의 부장품이었으며 검게 되지 않은 직물군은 일반매장된 시신의 부장품으로 보였다. Seip직물들은 다시 서로 다른 조직에 따라 분류되는 직물군으로 나뉘어 질 수 있었는데 본 연구에서는 이들 중 가장 빈번히 보이는 교차쌍 위사 트와인조직(Spaced alternate-pair weft-twining)으로 만들어진 직물군과 그 밖의 조직으로 되어 있는 직물군으로 나누고 이들을 각각 얼터씨이트(Alternate)와 기타조직(Pooled)으로 명명하였다. 본 연구에서는 Seip직물들 간에 매장법에 의해 손상정도의 차이가 발생했으며 특히 부븐적으로 화장된 직물과 그대로 묻혀진 직물들 간에 섬유손상 정도의 차이가 있었을 것으로 좌고 이를 확인하기 위해 검게된 직물군과 검게 되지 않은 직물군 간에, 그리고 얼터네이트와 기타조직으로된 직물군들 간에 IBFM 점수의 차이가 있는지 조사하였다. 섬유의 형태학적 손상은 광학현미경과 주사전자현미경을 사용하여 분석하였으며 분석에 이용된 총 샘플수는 총 132개였다. 수집된 데이터는 t-test를 이응하여 분석 하였다. T-test의 분석결과 Seip 직물들은 검게된 직물군과 검게되지 않은 직물군 사이에서 유의한 손상 정도의 차이를 볼 수 있었으며 반면에 조직에 따른 분류에서는 유의한 차이를 볼 수 없었다. IBFM의 평군점수를 비교하면 검게된 직물군보다 검게되지 않은 직물군이 더 높은 점수를 나타내어 후자가 더 많이 손상된 것으로 보여졌다. 7개의 손상형태를 독칩적으로 보았을 때 섬유속의 분리정도 (degree of bundle separation) , 횡금(transverse crack) , 그리고 횡선 (transverse striations) 이 검게된 직물군과 검게 되지 않은 직물군 사이에서, 섬유속의 분리정도, 종금(lengthwise striations)과 횡금이 얼터네이트와 기타조직 사이에서 각각 유의한 차이를 보였다.

Some deep faults do not reach the ground surface and are seldom recognized. Gokgang Fault area in the east of the Heunghae area of the Pohang basin has been selected to confirm the feasibility of the Horizontal-to-Vertical Spectral Ratio (HVSR) approach to identify blind faults. Densely spaced microtremor data have been acquired along two lines in the study area and processed to obtain resonance frequencies. An empirical relationship between the resonance frequency and the bedrock depth was proposed using borehole data available in the study area. Resonance frequencies along two lines were then converted to bedrock depths. The resulting depth profiles show significant lateral variations in the bedrock depth. As expected, considerable variation in the resonance frequency is observed near the Gokgang fault. The depth profiles also present additional significant variations in the resonance frequencies and the bedrock depths. The feature is presumably related to a blind fault that is previously unknown. Therefore, this case study confirms the feasibility of the HVSR technique to identify faults otherwise not recognized on the surface.

This study was conducted to identify factors influencing weight loss efforts in hypertensive patients with obesity in Korea using data from the 2016-2019 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Weight perception, weight loss efforts, and weight control methods were investigated for 1,910 subjects. Data were analyzed using descriptive analysis, cross-tabulation analysis and logistic regression. Among obese hypertensive patients, 12.6% perceived their weight as normal. Weight loss efforts were 2.03 times (95% CI: 1.48 to 2.78) higher in people with overweight perception than those with normal weight perception, and 1.74 times (95% CI: 1.33 to 2.26) higher in women than in men. In addition, those with class 1 obesity were 1.50 times (95% CI: 0.85 to 2.65) higher than those with class 3 obesity, and those with class 2 obesity were 2.16 times (95% CI: 1.16 to 4.00) higher than those with class 3 obesity. These results suggest that weight management approaches for hypertensive patients with obesity should be individually designed according to weight perception, gender, and obesity class.

This study was conducted for effective CPR by comparing the quality of chest compressions when using a new chest compression method during pediatric CPR. As an experimental study by Randomized Crossover Design, the depth, speed, compression-to-relaxation ratio, ease, and stability were measured when performing chest compressions for 28 Emergency Medical Technicians who completed the BLS Health Care-Provider qualification. The collected data were analyzed by using the SPSS Ver. 23.0 for Win statistical program. To summarize the results of this study, if the new chest compression method was used for chest compression in pediatric CPR, the qualitative indicators of chest compressions were improved. It is good to stick to the existing method, but through the new chest compression method, it will be necessary to confirm the possibility of clinical use based on additional research on various age groups and environmental factors.

The purpose of this study is to identify the current status of legal disputes that occur while firefighters are performing their duties and to suggest efficient response measures. To investigate awareness of legal disputes, a survey was conducted on 3,500 firefighters, and the responses of 505 people who participated in the survey were analyzed. As a research method, frequency analysis and cross-analysis were conducted based on the demographic characteristics of the participants and a survey of firefighters' awareness of the law, and through this, basic statistics and status were analyzed. As a result of the analysis, it was found that firefighters feel a lot of burden, including time and material losses, as well as disadvantages and mental anxiety in the workplace when legal disputes occur while performing their duties. The need for an organizational response in the workplace as an efficient response to this was statistically confirmed. Therefore, based on the results of this study, we propose the permanent establishment and operation of a professional legal support team within each city/provincial fire department headquarters so that firefighters can concentrate on their duties free from legal disputes.

The objective of this study was the development of immunochromatography (ICG) for the rapid and accurate detection of Listeria monocytogenes. Here, monoclonal antibodies (MAb) were conjugated with 40 nm colloidal gold particles, where the conjugate was used as the detection reagent in the ICG. The ICG was composed of three pads (sample, conjugate, and absorbance pads) and one nitrocellulose membrane. The colloidal gold-MAb conjugate was applied to the conjugate pad, and the test line and control line on the membrane were treated with MAb (FKLM-3BI2-37) and anti-mouse IgG, respectively. The detection limit of the ICG was $10^{5}$ cell/mL and it showed no cross-reaction to food borne pathogens. We inoculated meat and lettuce samples with various counts of L. monocytogenes, and analyzed them by ICG. All the inoculated meat samples gave positive results after enrichment for 24 h in LEB. These results indicate that ICG was able to serve as a primary screening tool for L. monocytogenes in various foods and agricultural products within 20 min after enrichment.

The aim of this study was to systematically review the latest clinical trials in music medicine and medical music therapy for pediatric patients. Thirteen databases were searched to obtain randomized controlled/crossover design studies published between the year 2000 and 2012 in English language. Out of 1012 articles retrieved in the initial search, fifteen studies were identified based on an exclusion criteria. Overall, selected articles involved children 1 month to 18 years, sample size of 11 to 150, and total participants of 987. Studies were classified and compared as music medicine or music therapy studies through a systematic synthesis assessing general characteristics, methodological quality, measured outcomes, types of interventions and the study results. Seven music medicine and eight music therapy studies measured seven dependent variables using thirty-six different measurement tools with a large heterogeneity in the selection, type, and method of music interventions. Evaluation of the methodological quality revealed that many studies did not provide a full report of the research method, and did not meet some or most methodological standards, such as randomization, allocation concealment, double or partial blinding, and intention to treat analysis. Although overall research results were positive if not significant, poor methodological quality and heterogeneity in design and intervention strategies raise the question of research bias and trustworthiness issues. The systematic review concluded that music may have a valuable clinical effect in addressing the physical and psychosocial needs of hospitalized children, although more rigorous, homogeneous and replicable studies are greatly needed.

In order to rapidly identify four drums species, Larimichthys polyactis, L. crocea, Atrobucca nibe, and Pseudotolithus elongates, a highly efficient and quick method has been developed using multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with species-specific primers. Around 1.4 kbp of the mitochondrial COI gene sequences from the four drums species were aligned, and species-specific forward primers were designed, based on the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP). The optimal conditions for PCR amplification were selected through cross-reactivity, using a gradient PCR method. The PCR results demonstrated species-specific amplification for each species at annealing temperatures between 50 and $62^{\circ}C$. Multiplex species-specific PCR (MSS-PCR) amplification reactions with four pairs of primers were performed for sixteen specimens of each species. MSS-PCR lead to a species-specific amplification of a 1,540 bp fragment in L. polyactis, 1,013 bp in A. nibe, 474 bp in L. crocea, and 182 bp in P. elongates, respectively. The four different sizes of each PCR product can be quickly and easily detected by single gel electrophoresis. The sensitivity of the MSS-PCR of the DNA was up to $0.1ng/{\mu}l$ as a starting concentration for the four different species tested. These results suggest that MSS-PCR, with species-specific primers based on SNP, can be a powerful tool in the rapid identification of the four drums species, L. polyactis, L. crocea, A. nibe, and P. elongates.

Accurately predicting cancer prognosis to provide appropriate treatment strategies for patients is one of the critical challenges in bioinformatics. Many researches have suggested machine learning models to predict patients' outcomes based on their gene expression data. Gene expression data is high-dimensional numerical data containing about 17,000 genes, so traditional researches used feature selection or dimensionality reduction approaches to elevate the performance of prognostic prediction models. These approaches, however, have an issue of making it difficult for the predictive models to grasp any biological interaction between the selected genes because feature selection and model training stages are performed independently. In this paper, we propose a novel two-dimensional image formatting approach for gene expression data to achieve feature selection and prognostic prediction effectively. Node2Vec is exploited to integrate biological interaction network and gene expression data and a convolutional neural network learns the integrated two-dimensional gene expression image data and predicts cancer prognosis. We evaluated our proposed model through double cross-validation and confirmed superior prognostic prediction accuracy to traditional machine learning models based on raw gene expression data. As our proposed approach is able to improve prediction models without loss of information caused by feature selection steps, we expect this will contribute to development of personalized medicine.
