The flow of saliva is controlled entirely by nervous stimuli. The present study was aimed to explore the role of sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves in the regulation of sodium transporters and water channels in the salivary gland. Rats were denervated of their sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves to the submandibular gland, and the expression of sodium transporters and water channels was determined. The expression of either ${\alpha}-1$ or ${\beta}-1$ subunit of Na, K-ATPase was not significantly affected by the sympathetic denervation. On the contrary, the expression of both subunits was decreased by the parasympathetic denervation. The expression of ${\alpha}-,\;{\beta}-$, and ${\gamma}$-subunits of ENaC was not significantly affected by the sympathetic denervation, but was increased by the parasympathetic denervation. On the contrary, the expression of NHE3 was markedly decreased by both the sympathetic and the parasympathetic denervation. The sympathetic denervation significantly increased the expression of AQP1, while the parasympathetic denervation was without effect. The sympathetic and parasympathetic denervation significantly increased the expression of AQP4. The sympathetic denervation did not affect the expression of AQP5, but the parasympathetic denervation significantly decreased it. These results suggest that sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves have tonic effects on the regulation of sodium transporters and AQP water channels in the salivary gland. The sympathetic and parasympathetic denervation may then result in alterations of secretory rate and electrolyte composition of the saliva.

This paper proposes the design of a neural network structure search model using graph convolutional neural networks. Deep learning has a problem of not being able to verify whether the designed model has a structure with optimized performance due to the nature of learning as a black box. The neural network structure search model is composed of a recurrent neural network that creates a model and a convolutional neural network that is the generated network. Conventional neural network structure search models use recurrent neural networks, but in this paper, we propose GC-NAS, which uses graph convolutional neural networks instead of recurrent neural networks to create convolutional neural network models. The proposed GC-NAS uses the Layer Extraction Block to explore depth, and the Hyper Parameter Prediction Block to explore spatial and temporal information (hyper parameters) based on depth information in parallel. Therefore, since the depth information is reflected, the search area is wider, and the purpose of the search area of the model is clear by conducting a parallel search with depth information, so it is judged to be superior in theoretical structure compared to GC-NAS. GC-NAS is expected to solve the problem of the high-dimensional time axis and the range of spatial search of recurrent neural networks in the existing neural network structure search model through the graph convolutional neural network block and graph generation algorithm. In addition, we hope that the GC-NAS proposed in this paper will serve as an opportunity for active research on the application of graph convolutional neural networks to neural network structure search.

Neurogenic tumors are the most common posterior mediastinal tumors and accounting for $19{\sim}39%$ of all mediastinal tumors and 75% of all posterior mediastinal tumors. Neurofibromatosis is an autosomal dominant disorder with variable expression of tumors, including neurologic tumors of the peripheral nerves, nrve roots, and plexi. A posterior mediastinal neufibroma in neurofibromatosis patients is rare. We report here a case of posterior mediastinal neurofibroma in a patient with type 1 neurofibromatosis.

구강안면동통 환자의 치료법으로 널리 쓰이는 전기요법은 연조직과 신경계 구조물에 대한 치료 시 중요한 역할을 담당하고 있다. 저자는 현재 구강안면동통의 치료법으로 널리 쓰이고 있는 전기요법들 중 경피성 신경자극(Transcutaneous electric nerve stimulation)과 전기침자극요법(Electroacupuncture stimulation therapy)이 각각의 신경섬유에 미치는 효과를 평가하고자 정상 성인 남녀 29명에게 경피성 신경자극 및 전기침자극을 시행하고 시행 전 및 시행 후 삼차신경 영역의 3가지 종류($A{\beta}$, $A{\delta}$, C fiber)의 신경섬유의 전류인지역치(CPT) 변화를 측정하여 그 차이점을 분석하였으며 이를 대조군과 비교하였다. 경피성 신경자극 및 전기침자극 모두에서 대조군에 비해 삼차신경 영역의 모든 신경섬유에 걸쳐 고른 전류인지역치의 증가를 나타내었으며, 경피성 신경자극과 전기침자극 후의 전류인지역치 변화량은 서로 유의할만한 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 이는 경피성 신경자극 과 전기침자극 모두 3가지 종류($A{\beta}$, $A{\delta}$, C fiber)의 감각신경섬유의 전류인지역치에 영향을 미치며, 구강안면동통의 감소에 효과적으로 사용될 수 있으리라 생각된다.

To examine the effed of Insulin on neuronal differentiation, telencephalic neuroblasts from chick embryonic brains were cultured in a serum-free medium. Indirect immunofluorescence microscopic studies revealed that the spedfic protein, MAP-2, was localized in both cell bodies and neurites of developing neuroblasts. Furthermore, treatinent of increasing concentration of Insulin promoted the MAP-2 synthesis as well as the neurite outgrowth activity. Thus, the enhancement of the morphological and biochemical parameters for neuronal differentiation appears to he closely correlated, and the neurotrophic effect of insulin may play a crucial role in neuronal process formation.

Neurilemmoma is a benign tumor which arises generally from the Schwann's cells. It is a slowly growing tumor and treated as surgically. We experienced a case of neurilemmoma of the oropharynx in a 28-year-old female who had noticed a gradual swelling of the left side of the oropharynx with swallowing difficulty for 6 months. The tumor was removed successfully intra-orally under the general endotracheal anesthesia and verified pathologically as neurilemmoma.

Nerve torsion is a rare condition that causes sensory abnormalities and decreased muscle strength due to a nerve-twisting phenomenon in the peripheral nerves. To date, the progression of the condition from its cause to diagnosis and treatment has not been established. The authors report three cases of good results from the treatment of nerve torsion in the anterior interosseous and radial nerves with epineurotomy and neurolysis.

딥러닝을 이용한 침수해석은 강우자료와 그에 대한 1차원 EPA-SWMM 결과인 총월류량을 인공신경망에 학습시키고, 학습시킨 인공신경망을 테스트하기 위해 또다른 강우자료를 인공신경망으로 예측해서, 이것이 해석결과를 얼마나 잘 나타내는지 확인하고, 인공신경망이 모의한 총월류량을 잘 나타낸다면 인공신경망을 잘 학습시킨 것으로 판단하여 새로운 강우가 발생했을 때 새로운 강우자료에 대해 매번 새로 1차원, 2차원해석을 하는 것을 대신하여 인공신경망만으로 총월류량을 예측할 수 있게 되는 것이다. 강우자료를 입력자료로 사용하게 되는데, 강우량만으로는 그 강우의 특성을 전부 나타낸다고 할 수 없기 때문에 지속기간과 총강우량, 왜도(skewness), 표준편차를 추가적인 입력자료로 사용한다. 1차원, 2차원 해석결과인 총월류량은 입력자료에 대한 타깃자료가 되어, 인공신경망을 테스트하거나 실제로 이용할 때 비슷한 지속기간과 총강우량, 왜도, 표준편차를 가진 강우가 발생했을 때 타깃자료를 이용해 총월류량을 예측하는 것이다. 인공신경망이 얼마나 잘 학습되었는지 확인하기 위해서 침수지도를 작성해볼 필요가 있다. 1차원, 2차원 모의해석으로 나온 총월류량과, 인공신경망을 이용해 예측한 총월류량을 이용해 각각 침수지도를 작성하여 시각적 자료로 변환하여 비교하고, 침수지도가 일치한다면 인공신경망이 잘 학습되었다고 판단할 수 있고, 새로운 강우가 발생하면 학습시킨 인공신경망을 통해 1차원, 2차원 모의해석을 하지 않고도 총월류량을 예측할 수 있다.

Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors(MPNSTs) are uncommon sarcomas that mostly arise in the soft tissue. They can develop from the pre-existing neurofibromas or schwannomas, or denovo from the peripheral nerves, or they can occur following the radiation therapy. We report a case of MPNST that developed in the sciatic nerve of the patient with neurofibromatosis type-1(NF-1). The patient was a 39-year-old man with the history of NF-1, who's main symptom was a rapidly enlarging painful mass in his posterior thigh. The well demarcated tumor, $6.5{\times}5{\times}4.5$cm in size, was composed of closely packed spindle cells. Since the patients with NF-1 have a high risk for developing a recurred MPNST, the importance of the clinical follow up is emphasized.

There are several kinds of regional nerve blockades, such as interscalene brachial plexus block, C5 root block, suprascapular nerve block, and axillary nerve block, which can be applied for anesthesia and postoperative pain control after shoulder surgeries. These regional nerve blockades have shown good results, but high failure rate and serious complications, such as phrenic nerve palsy, pneumothorax, and nerve injury, still remain. Ultrasound-guided intervention can increase the success rate of nerve blockades and reduce complications. We described the method of ultrasound-guided intervention for the regional nerve blockades around shoulder.
