본 논문은 1996년 노동법 개정을 둘러싼 노동계의 총파업에 대해 보수적 성향을 갖는 조선일보와 진보적 성향을 갖고 있던 한겨레가 어떠한 방식으로 이러한 쟁점을 재현하고 해석하는 지를 분석했다. 당시의 노동계 총파업은 내부적으로는 민주화에 따른 시민사회의 성숙과 외부적으로는 글로벌라이제이션에 따른 국가 간 경쟁의 가속화라는 두 가지 정치경제학적 요인이 교차하는 공간에서 일어났으며, 동시에 광범위한 국민적 지지를 확보한 파업으로 그 상징적 의미를 갖고 있다. 이와 같이 주요 사회적 쟁점에 대한 두 신문간의 차이를 분석하기 위해 질적 분석 방법인 서사분석(Narrative Analysis)과 양적 분석 방법인 조응분석(Correspondence Analysis)을 사용했다. 서사분석은 사건의 발생과 진행 그리고 결말 과정에서 대립되는 행위자의 상징적 담론을 분석함으로써 사회적 쟁점에 대한 신문사간의 뉴스보도의 차이점 또는 유사성을 구분할 수 있으며, 조응분석은 주요 쟁점에 대해 행위자들이 어떠한 방식으로 서로 연계되는 지를 파악함으로써 역동적으로 총파업에 대한 행위자들의 관계의 변화를 공간적으로 탐색할 수 있는 장점을 갖고 있다. 서사분석 결과, 두 신문은 각각 서로 다른 서사구조를 기반으로 주요 행위자의 담론적 기호를 정반대로 구성하고 있었다. 사건 발생 단계에서는, 두 신문이 각각 국가 경쟁력 강화와 노동전 보호를 중심적인 서사구조로 설정해 차이를 보였으며, 대통령 및 여당과 민주노총이 대립적인 행위자로 설정되었다. 사건의 발전 단계에서는, 총파업의 불법성과 적법성 문제에 대한 갈등을 기본 서사구조로 제시한 채, 노동계를 포함한 시민사회와 정부기관이 대립적인 행위자로 등장했다. 사건의 갈등 해소 단계에서는 문제 해결을 위한 방법으로 두 신문이 대통령과 야당 지도자간의 정치적 해결과 노동법 통과에 대한 위헌론 제기를 중심으로 한 노동단체들의 지속적인 연대를 중심 서사구조로 각각 제시했다. 이 시기에서 주요 행위자들의 대립관계는 종료되었다. 조응분석 결과, 사건 발생과 위기 고조 단계, 그리고 갈등 해소 단계등 모든 시기에서 두 신문의 주요 행위자 구성에 있어서 차이가 나타났다. 다시 말해, 조선일보는 기본적으로 총파업을 둘러싼 문제의 구성과 발전, 해소 과정에서 정당이나 대통령, 야당 지도자 등과 같은 정치관련 행위자를 강조하고 있었다. 반면에, 한겨레는 대체로 로든 사건진행 단계에서 노동 관련 단체들과 시민단체의 역동적인 연대와 활동에 초점을 맞추고 있는 것으로 나타났다.

복단면 하도는 홍수소통을 위한 상부 하도와 생태계 서식처 강화와 유사이송능력 개선, 경제적인 유지유량의 확보 등을 도모하는 자연적인 저수로 하도로 구성된다. 그러므로 갈수기와 홍수기의 유량차가 큰 하천에서, 복단면 하도는 하천 공학, 환경 생태 관점에서 다양한 이점을 제공한다. 그러나 복단면 하도에서의 흐름저항, 조도계수, 통수능, 수위-유량관계, 횡방향 유속분포, 그리고 하상전단응력 분포는 단단면 하도와 상이하며, 중요한 차이점은 주수로부와 홍수터부 사이의 유속차로 인하여 발생하는 활발한 운동량 교환에 의해 추가적인 전단층이 생성되는 점이다. 주수로와 홍수터 사이에서 발생된 경계전단력(Apparent Shear Force, ASF)은 하천의 전반적인 통수능을 감소시켜 홍수의 하도내 저류효과를 증가시킬 수도 있다. 또한 주수로 및 홍수터가 분담할 수 있는 유량은 경계전단력에 민감하기 때문에, 홍수터에 수목 식재, 구조물 설치 등을 계획할 경우 정량적인 항력저항의 산정을 위하여 매우 중요하다. 현재까지 복단면에서 발생하는 경계전단응력을 추정하는 다양한 방법들이 개발되었으며, 각각의 방법으로 부터 경계전단력을 정량적으로 예측할 수 있다. 그러나 대부분의 방법이 실험에 근거한 경험적 방법이므로 각 식의 개발에 사용된 자료에만 적합할 수 있는 한계가 있으며, 균일한 수로의 기하학적 변수(전단면과 주수로의 하폭비, 홍수터와 주수로의 수심비, 홍수터와 주수로의 조도비, 주수로의 하폭대 수심비 등)에 의한 식으로 구성되어 수치모형에서 직접 활용하기에는 한계가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 복단면 경계전단력 산정을 위하여 개발된 다양한 연구결과들을 비교 검토하고, 기존문헌 또는 웹상에서 가용한 수리실험 자료들을 이용하여 각 방법에서 계산된 유량과 실측 유량을 비교함으로써 각 방법이 지닌 한계를 분석하였다. 본 연구에서 검토된 5가지 방법은 Knight and Demetriou (1983)(이하 KD), Wormleaton and Merret (1990)(이하 WM), Cristodoulou (1992), Bousmar and Zech(1999) (이하 BZ) 그리고 Moreta and Martin-Vide (2010)(이하 MM)이다. BZ 방법을 제외하고 나머지 방법들은 전체 유량의 비교에서 5% 이내의 오차를 나타내었다. 그러나 나머지 4가지 방법 중 주수로부 유속의 비교에 있어서는 소규모 수로 실험자료만 이용한 KD 방법이 5% 이상의 오차를 나타내어 정확도가 떨어지는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 비교적 단순한 형태의 Cristodoulou (1992) 방법이 적용하고자 하는 수로의 규모와 무관하게 복단면 유량예측에 적합할 것으로 판단된다.

Probabilistic analysis is a powerful method to quantify variability and uncertainty common in engineering geology fields. In rock slope engineering, the uncertainty and variation may be in the form of scatter in orientations and geometries of discontinuities, and also test results. However, in the deterministic analysis, the factor of safety which is used to ensure stability of rock slopes, is based on the fixed representative values for each parameter without a consideration of the scattering in data. For comparison, in the probabilistic analysis, these discontinuity parameters are considered as random variables, and therefore, the reliability and probability theories are utilized to evaluate the possibility of slope failure. Therefore, in the probabilistic analysis, the factor of safety is considered as a random variable and replaced by the probability of failure to measure the level of slope stability. In this study, the stochastic properties of discontinuity parameters are evaluated and the stability of rock slope is analyzed based on the random properties of discontinuity parameters. Then, the results between the deterministic analysis and the probabilistic analysis are compared and the differences between the two analysis methods are explained.

Hydrothermal gold deposits are evidence of intensive fluid flow through fault zones, and the resultant vein structures and textures reflect the fluid redistribution mechanism. This review introduces the suction pump and fault valve models as fluid circulation mechanisms causing hydrothermal gold deposits in the frameworks of the concepts of fault mechanics. The suction pump and fault valve models describe faulting-driven heterogeneous fluid flow and related vein formation mechanisms, accompanied by the cycles of (1) stress accumulation and fluid pressure build-up and (2) seismic rupture and stress/fluid pressure release. The models are available under different geological environments (stress conditions), and the vein structures and textures representing the mechanisms have similarities and differences. The suction pump and fault valve models must help better to interpret the origins of hydrothermal gold deposits in Korea and improve the efficiency of further exploration.

The Muju-Seolcheon area, which is known to be located in the boundary of Ogcheon Belt and Ryeongnam Massif (OB-RM), consists of age unknown or Precambrian metamorphic rocks (MRs) [banded biotite gneiss, metasedimentary rocks (black phyllite, mica schist, crystalline limestone, quartzite), granitic gneiss, hornblendite], Mesozoic sedimentary and igneous rocks. In this paper are researched the structural characteristics of each deformation phase from the geometric and kinematic features and the developing sequence of multi-deformed rock structures of the MRs, and is considered the boundary location of OB-RM with the previous geochemical, radiometric, structure geological data. The geological structure of this area is at least formed through four phases (Dn-1, Dn, Dn+1, Dn+2) of deformation. The Dn-1 is the deformation which took place before the formation of Sn regional foliation and formed Sn-1 foliation folded by Fn fold. The Dn is that which formed the Sn regional foliation. The predominant Sn foliation shows a NE direction which matches the zonal distribution of MRs. A-type or sheath folds, in which the Fn fold axis is parallel to the direction of stretching lineation, are often observed in the crystalline limestone. The Dn+1 deformation, which folded the Sn foliation, took place under compression of NNW~NS direction and formed Fn+1 fold of ENE~EW trend. The Sn foliation is mainly rearranged by Fn+1 folding, and the ${\pi}$-axis of Sn foliation, which is dispersed, shows the nearly same direction as the predominant Fn+1 fold axis. The Dn+2 deformation, which folded the Sn and Sn+1 foliations, took place under compression of E-W direction, and formed open folds of N-S trend. And the four phases of deformation are recognized in all domains of the OB-RM, and the structural characteristics and differences to divide these tectonic provinces can not be observed in this area. According to the previous geochemical and radiometric data, the formation or metamorphic ages of the MRs in and around this area were Middle~Late Paleproterozoic. It suggests that the crystalline limestone was at least deposited before Middle Paleproterozoic. This deposition age is different in the geologic age of Ogcheon Supergroup which was recently reported as Neoproterozoic~Late Paleozoic. Therefore, the division of OB-RM tectonic provinces in this area, which regards the metasedimentary rocks containing crystalline limestone as age unknown Ogcheon Group, is in need of reconsideration.

Background: Patients with diabetes mellitus are highly sensitive to infections, including tuberculosis, and the longer the duration of DM, the greater is the prevalance of tuberculosis. We studied the difference of the clinical manifestations, radiologic findings, resistance and others factors of patients with diabetic and non-diabetic pulmonary tuberculosis. Methods: The patients we enrolled in this study were newly diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis from January 2003 to December 2005. Results: 159 patients were enrolled in this study. There were 30 pulmonary tuberculosis patients with diabetic mellitus (DMTB) and 129 pulmonary tuberculosis patients without diabetic mellitus (non-DMTB). There was no difference in the basic characteristics and clinical manifestation between both the groups. For the chest X-ray findings, the moderately advanced tuberculosis patients were the most common (43.3% in the DMTB group and 49.6% in the non-DMTB group). There was no relation between the severity of tuberculosis activity on chest x-ray and the presence of diabetes. The prevalence of cavitory lesions in the DMTB group was significantly higher than that in the non-DMTB group, but the prevalence of atelectasis was higher in the non-DMTB group (p<0.05). There was no difference in the incidence of lower lung involvement, the number of involved lobes, the number of treatment days and the radiological sequelae in both groups. Conclusion: The DMTB patients had a higher incidence of cavitory lesions and a higher incidence of atelectasis than the non-DMTB patients.

This study was performed on 16 patients diagnosed with tsutsugamushi disease and cerebral infarction from January 2007 to December 2015. An acute cerebral infarction was diagnosed by brain MRI and MRA. Tsutsugamushi disease was diagnosed using a polymerase chain reaction. To distinguish the difference between the generalized cerebral infarction and infarction with tsutsugamushi disease, the blood pressure and body temperature were measured uponadmission. In general, the blood pressure increases during an acute cerebral infarction. Interestingly, in this study, 12 patients showed a systolic blood pressure less than 130 mmHg uponadmission. The location of the cerebral infarction and whether single or multiple cerebral infarction were examined. Thirteen patients had a cerebral infarction in anterior circulation and 3 patients developed in posterior circulation. To evaluate the coagulation disorders, prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), D-dimer, fibrinogen, fibrin degradation product (FDP). D-dimer, which is generally known to increase in an acute cerebral infarction, showed a significant increase in the 13 patients. Fibrin degradation products (FDP) showed a significant increase in 15 patients. The pathophysiological mechanism of tsutsugamushi disease is known as vasculitis, which may result in an endothelial cell injury and proliferation of the endothelial wall, which may lead to a cerebral infarction accompanied by coagulopathy. Without endothelial cell damage and proliferation, a vasospasm caused by vasculitis may cause vasoconstriction and cerebral infarction.

Purpose : Chest irradiation leads to a significant cardiac injury in a number of patients. To prevent, or to reduce the risk of radiation-induced cardiac injury, pentoxifylline(PTX), a haemorrheologic agent that improves the blood flow through small blood capillaries has been employed. Materials and Methods : One hundred and eighty ICR mice were divided into three study groups: control, radiation alone, and radiation-pentoxifylline. Each group was subdivided into 12 subgroups: 1 3, 6 and 10 days and 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16 and 20 weeks by observation Period after irradiation. The total 15Gy of radiation was delivered in a single fraction through anterior mediastinal port. Pentoxifylline was injected subcutaneously daily 50mg/kg to the back of the mice from the first day of irradiation throughout the observation period. The mice of each group after a certain observation period were sacrificed and sectioned for histopathologic examination of the heart. Result : The findings of acute radiation-induced carditis i.e., heterophilic infiltration and vacuolization and ballooning of endothelial cells were observed upto 6 weeks and reduced sharply afterwards. The late radiation effects including pericarditis with mononuclear cell infiltration, pericardial fibrosis, endothelial cell changes, myocardial degeneration and fibrosis present from 4 weeks onwards after irradiation but with various degree of severity. The overall process of pathologic changes of radiation-pentoxifylline group was similar to those of radiation alone group but the duration of acute stage was relatively short and the severity of late cardiac toxicity was much lesser compared with those of radiation alone group. Conclusion : Pentoxifylline can effectively reduce the late radiation-induced cardiac injury and reslve the acute effects relatively rapidly.
