This study conducted a frame analysis of the news reports of Chonbuk bus strike broadcasted via local broadcasting companies of the Jeollabuk-do. The results showed that all Chonbuk local televisions gave more emphasis on 'episodic' frame by emphasizing demonstrations and struggles between capital and labor. In the case of content frames, news reports did not present the solution or an alternative of the strike, and the democratic process frame or the institutional improvement frame was not embossed. Therefore, local television news of Chonbuk bus strike was insufficient in reporting causes and backgrounds of the strike. Also, it displayed existing press routine in reporting the issue of social conflict such as a bus strike.

Objectives: To evaluate and summarize the efficacy and safety of manual therapy in temporomandibular disorder(TMD). Methods: Ten databases (Pubmed, Cochrane, EMBASE, AMED, CINAHL, CNKI, and four Korean databases) were searched up to March 2017. Pain and range of motion(ROM) of temporomandibular joint were used as the primary outcome measure, and effective rates, dysfunction scale and adverse events were used as secondary outcome measures. The Cochrane risk of bias tool was used to evaluate the methodological quality. Results: 10 randomized controlled trials(RCTs) involving 603 participants were included. There were no significant differences between the two groups in comparison with placebo manual therapy group. In comparison with Wait-list and conventional treatment groups, manual therapy significantly alleviated pain and ROM. Five RCTs(50.0%) reported adverse events and there were no adverse cases by manual therapy. Conclusions: We found evidence that manual therapy may alleviate symptoms of patients with TMD. A positive effect was observed in comparison with conventional treatment and Wait-list, but no conclusion for the comparisons with placebo manual therapy. There is no evidence of worsening symptoms or causing adverse events.

This study aimed to analyze users' behaviors to use mobile services of academic libraries by indirectly observing users' experiences based on their diaries. Ultimately, this study intended to contribute to the development of mobile services in academic libraries by helping academic libraries understand users and their needs of mobile services. For this, diary method was conducted with 20 students at two academic libraries. These participants should report detailed process and thoughts immediately after using mobile library services at least once a day during a week. Totally 137 diaries were collected. And then this study conducted a content analysis to figure out what information needs they had, whether or not the needs were solved, what menu they selected, and what steps and gaps they got. In addition, on the basis of the findings, this study suggested further steps for improving mobile services at academic libraries.

As architectures have recently become high-risers and megastructured, stable high strength products have been ensured. Accordingly, use of precast concrete accouplement has been increased in order to facilitate air compression and rationalize construction. Since not only external heating but also internal temperature rise caused by the accumulation of cement hydration heat in manufacturing process, precast concrete members with large cross-section used for high-rise mega-structure's columns and beams may exhibit different temperature history compared to the precast concrete members for wall and sub-floor with relatively small cross-sections. Therefore, this study aims to elucidate the characteristics of temperature history of mass concrete members cast with high-strength concrete for precast concrete application. In this study, large cross-sectional precast concrete mock-up, unit cement quantity, and temperature histories in manufacturing precast concrete member under different curing condition were inclusively investigated.

Magnetic gears are magnetically coupled to the input side and the output side of the rotary machine to transmit power without mechanical contact. The magnetic gear consists of an inner rotor, an outer rotor and pole pieces. Torque ripple occurs due to the difference in reluctance between the two rotors and the pole pieces during power transmission. Torque ripple is a cause of the noise and vibration of the rotary machine, so it is necessary to minimize it. In this paper, we propose a shape that cuts the corner of the pole piece and apply a fillet to reduce torque ripple. We used a two-dimensional finite element analysis method to compare and analyze the torque ripple of the magnetic gears according to the change of the fillet parameters and to find the pole piece shape with excellent torque ripple.

In this paper, we analyzed the propagation characteristics of polarization diversity in the view of diversity gain, cross correlation coefficient and average received signal strength, and compared it with those of space diversity. From the results, we could confirm that in the care of line of sight(LOS), space diversity gain is bigger than polarization diversity gain by 2 dB and the diversity gain of mobile transmitting with 90 degree is bigger than that of mobile transmitting with 45 degree by 1 dB. However, in the area of non-line of sight(NLOS), the diversity gains were all most the same in two diversity schemes and in specular cases, polarization diversity showed better performances. Also it was verified that under the NLOS conditions, diversity gain of mobile transmitting with 45 degree was at least 1 dB bigger than that of mobile transmitting with 90 degree.

Objectives Danggwisoo-san and Jakyakgamcho-tang are frequently prescribed for traffic accident patients in Korea. The aim of this study was to examine index compound analysis, antioxidant activity and amount of starch measurement by extraction method. Methods Danggwisoo-san and Jakyakgamcho-tang were extracted with water and 70% ethanol. Antioxidant activity was measured by 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl, 2,2-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) and ferric reducing antioxidant power according to the standard protocol. The contents of the indicator components nodakenin, paeoniflorin, and glycyrrhizin were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography, respectively. All starches were hydrolyzed and then total D-glucose was measured and compared. Results Antioxidant activity was excellent in 70% ethanol in all assays. The index component was jagged because its solubility was different depending on the extraction solvent. Starch content was significantly lower in 70% alcohol extract than water extract. Conclusions The results of this study showed that physiological activities and components are different according to extraction conditions. Each herbal medicine has a suitable extraction solvent. Also, the difference in starch content is an object to be considered as it may affect digestion and absorption.

AlN films with c-axis orientation and thermal conductivity characteristics were deposited by using Pulsed Laser Deposition and the films were characterized by changing the deposition conditions. In particular, we investigated the optimal conditions for the application of a heat sinking plane AlN thin film. Epitaxial AlN films were deposited on sapphire ($c-Al_2O_3$) single crystals by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) with an AlN target. AlN films were deposited at a fixed pressure of $2{\times}10^{-5}$ Torr, while the substrate temperature was varied from 500 to $700^{\circ}C$. According to the experimental results of the growth temperature of the thin film, AlN thin films were confirmed with a highly c-axis orientation, maximum grain size, and high thermal conductivity at $650^{\circ}C$. The thermal conductivity of the AlN thin film was found to increase compared to bulk AlN near the band gap value of 6.2 eV.

A venous air embolism is a complication of various venous access procedures such as contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT). Although most cases of iatrogenic venous air embolisms during CECT involve a few milliliters of air and are asymptomatic, a massive venous air embolism can be fatal. We report a case of a massive intraventricular air embolism after CECT with a review of the literature regarding the pathophysiology and treatment of air embolisms.
