To development of the low toxic preservatives, we prepared 29 kinds of chemicals using dinotefuran of low toxic insecticide, IPBC and propiconazol of fungicide, and clove oil has fungicidal activity, but is harmless to humans. It was conducted to investigate the inhibitory effectiveness of mycelial growth and anti-mold effectiveness to treated PDA medium and wood specimen with prepared chemicals. It was not showed anti-mold effectiveness that solvent and emulsifier form preservatives. Therefor, we thought that only four component, dinotefuran, IPBC, propiconazol and clove oil, has anti-mold effectiveness. In the PDA medium test, the preservative which has much IPBC showed high anti-mold effectiveness. By the wood specimen test, it was known that many prepared preservatives which showed good inhibitory effectiveness of mycelial growth in the PDA medium test, have not anti-mold effectiveness. Of all prepared preservatives in this study, only three preservatives containing dinotefuran and IPBC, or adding clove oil appeared the excellent anti-mold effectiveness.

In this paper, the aerodynamic forces of a Korean Traditional Bangpae Kite with the wind hole and spanwise curved dihedral were measured by wind tunnel test. For the flat plate kite without the wind hole, the stall presents at ${\alpha}=35^{\circ}$ with $C_{Lmax}$=1.2. The Korean Traditional Bangpae Kite with the wind hole had $C_{Lmax}$=1.05 at ${\alpha}=30^{\circ}$ without the apparent stall phenomena. As the wind hole size growing, the lift and drag of kite were changed slowly after stalling angle of attack. As increasing the leading edge dihedral angle, lift curves were more increased than drag curves. As the growing of wind hole size, the effect of dihedral angle was constant affect to the lift and drag of kite.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of Korean medicine in a patient with cognitive impairment, emotional disturbance, and sleep disturbance due to a diffuse axonal injury associated with a traumatic brain injury. The patient was treated with herbal medicine and acupuncture. The treatment effects were evaluated using the Korean version of the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE-K) and the Global Detraction Scale (GDS), and by observing clinical symptoms. Improvements in the total scores of MMSE-K and GDS were observed after the Korean medicine treatments; the MMSE-K score increased from 13 to 23 and the GDS score decreased from 5 to 4. The emotional and sleep disturbances were also reduced. These case report findings suggest that Korean medicine may be effective for treating symptoms of diffuse axonal injury in patients with traumatic brain injury.

Objectives Osteoarthritis is hard to manage with both conventional and Korean medicine treatment. The core outcome set (COS) to demonstrate the effectiveness of Korean medicine treatment has not been established yet. We aimed to present preliminary data of COS by performing a literature review on the evaluation indices used in existing clinical research. Methods We examined the literature from 2000 to 2017 in two Korean electronic databases (Korea citation index and oriental medicine advanced searching integrated system) by searching for the following 3 terms 'total knee replacement (Korean)', 'total knee replacement,' and 'knee surgery.' We found 333 articles; among them, 50 duplicates were removed. Finally, we selected 160 articles after complete screening. We then extracted measured indices and clinical outcomes from the selected articles and categorized the relevant criteria. Results According to this study, the hospital for special surgery and knee society, range of movement angle, cross leg, Berg balance scale and balance ability, muscle strength, 6 minutes walking test, visual analogue scale, self-efficacy, the 12-item and 36-item short form survey and self-rated health status are the most commonly used outcomes of knee. Conclusions This study found that the several categories after total knee replacement (TKR) are being evaluated in the literature, and we were able to verify the most frequently used evaluation indices in these categories. The results of this study will be used to establish evaluation indices for the treatment of TKR in the future using Korean medicine.

This study aimed to examine the relationship between children's perceived levels of neglect and abuse and community characteristics. For this, it analyzed data from the Korean Children & Youth Panel Survey and data collected from the Statistics Korea. Main findings are as follows. First, children who resided in the communities with higher report rates of child maltreatment perceived higher levels of neglect. Second, children who resided in the communities with higher rates of welfare recipients, lower residential mobility, or lower rates of those who responded they had someone to ask for help when they were sick tended to perceive higher levels of neglect. Third, while the perceived levels of abuse were explained by the child factors, those of neglect were explained by child, family, and community factors. Based on these findings, this study suggested the interventions on the community levels and future research directions.
