In this study, the relationship between natural gas (NG) data and gas-related environmental elements was performed using machine learning algorithms to predict the level of gas leakage risk without directly measuring gas leakage data. The study was based on open data provided by the server using the IoT-based remote control Picarro gas sensor specification. The naturel gas leaks into the air, it is a big problem for air pollution, environment and the health. The proposed method is multivariate outlier removing method based Random Forest (RF) classification for predicting risk of NG leak. After, unsupervised k-means clustering, the experimental dataset has done imbalanced data. Therefore, we focusing our proposed models can predict medium and high risk so best. In this case, we compared the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, accuracy, area under the ROC curve (AUC), and mean standard error (MSE) for each classification model. As a result of our experiments, the evaluation measurements include accuracy, area under the ROC curve (AUC), and MSE; 99.71%, 99.57%, and 0.0016 for MOL_RF respectively.

Respiratory viruses (RVs) cause infections in hospital environments through direct contact with infected visitors. In infection control, it causes major problems of acquired infections in hospitals by respiratory viruses. The surveillance data derived from clinical laboratories are often used to properly allocate medical resources to hospitals and communities for treatment, consumables, and diagnostic product purchases in the institutions and public health sectors that provide health care. An early diagnosis is essential in infection with respiratory viruses, and methods that can be used in diagnostic methods using respiratory samples include virus culture, molecular diagnosis, and analysis. A microchip provides a new strategy for developing a more diverse and powerful technology called point-of-care testing. The importance of the respiratory system should be applied strictly to the infection control guidelines to ensure the occupational health and safety of health care workers. Evidence of clinical efficacy, including this study, is challenging the long-standing paradigm for infection propagation. Additional assistance will be needed for frequent tests to detect respiratory viruses in inpatients who have begun to show new respiratory symptoms indicating infections requiring efforts to control the infection.

This study examined the effect of the respiratory training centered at forced breathing exercise of blowing out a candle on the improvement of adults' respiratory ability, which means the increased muscle strength of body trunk. After the four-week candle-blowing breathing training, the forced vital capacity (FVC) increased statistically significantly (p<.05). The forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) did not show a statistically significant difference before and after the four-week intervention(p>.05). The peak expiratory flow rate (PEF) statistically significantly increased after the four-week blowing-out-the-candle training (p<.05). This study examined the relationship between forced breathing training and pulmonary function of healthy adults including FVC, FEV1, and PEF, which means the increased muscle strength of body trunk, by implementing blowing-out-the-candle breathing exercise centered at forced respiratory exercise and obtained significant results. Further studies that use a sample of patients with advanced respiratory system disease for whom physical therapy is absolutely necessary will be required in the future.

Purpose : As the number of patients with systemic diseases is increasing in the old, the relevance of oral health is gaining particular research interest. To provide fundamental resources for dental services, this study examined the relationship between doctors' diagnoses of circulatory diseases and patients' awareness of oral health and oral care behaviors. Methods : SPSS 26.0 was used to assess various variables, including doctor's diagnosis of circulatory diseases, gender, age, household income quintile, participation in economic activity, marital status, subjective level of oral health awareness, mastication discomfort, speaking and chewing discomfort, dental inspection, use of oral care goods, teeth brushing during the previous day, and untreated oral conditions. Results : The circulatory diseases suffered by the subjects were as follows: 56 % high blood pressure, 36 % dyslipidemia, 6 % stroke, and 8 % myocardial infarction or angina. A higher age meant a higher diagnosis rate of high blood pressure (p<.001) and stroke (p<.001). Those with dyslipidemia showed a higher rate of receiving oral inspection (p=.040), and an untreated oral condition was more frequently observed among those not diagnosed with the disease (p=.035). The subjects who were not diagnosed with stroke showed a higher rate of oral inspection (p<.001), while those who had a prior experience of stroke suffered a higher rate of mastication discomfort (p=.020). People who had high blood pressure showed a lower rate of using oral care goods (p<.001), and those diagnosed with stroke showed a lower rate of brushing teeth the previous day. Conclusion : This study found a correlation between the diagnosis of circulatory diseases and the awareness of oral health and oral care behavior. Consequently, oral health education should be included in mental health-related education, and customized training to teach teeth brushing and the use of oral care goods should be provided to patients with circulatory diseases during dentist visits.

George Canguilhem(1904-1995) is one of the rare French philosophers of the 20th century to develop an approach that was shaped by a medical education. For him, medicine is considered as "a technique or an art at the junction of many different sciences, rather than a proper science." The thesis that medicine is a technique is presented not at a practical level, but on an axiological horizon which reflects the totality of humanity. This character of medicine became a motive that concretized Canguilhem's philosophical thinking. Medical knowledge is not an application of physiology, but is derived from clinical observations which are based on the personal experiences of each patient. If medicine were based on scientific knowledge and its practice the very application of this pure knowledge, the patient might be a passive object. However, the patient doesn't remain passive, but reacts to the menace of disease according to attitude that the patient developed over the course of his or her life. Canguilhem characterizes this point as 'normativity', the core of individual life, which eludes positivist medicine. Here appear the essential contents of his vitalism. Although they emphasized the activity of individual living being, other modern French vitalists didn't consider this dimension of norms. Since the normativity in Canguilhem concerns the subjectivity of the first person, it avoids a mechanical form of explanation. Thus Canguilhem's originality is found in his derivation of the essence of medicine from individuality, values and norms.

IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) 5차 평가보고서에 의하면 최근 배출 온실가스의 양은 관측 이래 최고 수준이며 온실가스로 인한 기후변화는 인간계와 자연계에 광범위한 영향을 주고 있다고 보고하였다. 기후변화의 영향은 국제적으로 빙하 감소, 사막화, 해수면 상승 등 뚜렷하게 나타나고 있다. 이러한 기후변화에 대응하기 위해 온실가스 완화 정책과 동시에 새로운 기후변화 환경에 적응하는 것이 필요하다. 기후변화 적응이란 현재 나타나고 있거나 미래에 나타날 것으로 예상되는 기후변화의 파급효과와 영향에 대응할 수 있도록 하는 모든 행동이며 이를 위해서는 기후변화 영향분석이 수반되어야 한다. MOTIVE 연구단에서는 기후변화 적응대책 수립의 지원을 목표로 7개 부문(건강, 물관리, 농업, 산림, 생태, 해양, 수산)에서 "한국형 통합평가 모형"을 개발하고 있다. 각 부문에서 개발하는 프로세스 모델은 시스템에 대한 지식을 가진 상황에서 사용하면 신뢰할 수 있는 예측 결과를 얻을 수 있지만, 부문별 통합을 통한 영향 분석 시 타 분야에 대한 지식이 수반되어야 하는 어려움을 가진다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 시스템 내의 물리적 프로세스에 대한 요구 없이 입출력 데이터만을 이용하여 결과를 신속하게 추정하는 데이터 모델링(기계학습)을 이용하였다. 데이터 모델링을 위한 데이터는 다양한 자연 현상에 대한 BANPOL(수질 프로세스 모델) 분석을 통한 자료를 이용하여 학습 자료를 구축하였다. 즉, 데이터 모델링은 BANPOL 모델을 대리하는 메타모델이며, 낙동강 표준유역에 대한 유량 및 수질을 높은 상관성으로 추정하였다. 원 모델보다 정확도는 낮을 수 있으나 메타모델의 개발을 통한 웹 시스템을 개발하여 비전문가의 구동 및 신속한 기후 시나리오를 적용할 수 있는 환경을 개발하였다.

The purpose of this study was to invesitage the optimum cooking method, which ingridients mixing ratio and decortication of white and black sesame gruels, were examined by sensory and mechanical tests. As the results of sensory evaluation for the decortication white and black sesame gruels with the levels of 50, 100, 150, and 200％ sesame per rice l00ｇ, the flavor, nutty taste, and the overall preference were increased with the increase of sesame add. The gruel which made with decorticated sesame roafting for 7 minutes was proferable. The gruels 150% decorticated white and black sesame roasted 7 min had better overall preference. In the mechanical measurement for the white sesame gruels, L value tended to be decreased, while ‘a' and ‘b' values as well as viscosity tented to be increased as the sesame ratio and roasting time increased. In black sesame gruels, L value tended to be decreased, while ‘a' and ‘b' values as well as viscosity tended to be increased when sesame ratio was increased. In correlation between sensory evaluation and mechanical measurement of the white and black sesame gruels, color, flavor, nutty taste of sensory evaluation were correlated with the mechanical measurement. The optimal material mixing ratio for gruels was rice 100 g, white and black sesame 150 g, and water 1075 g.
