본 논문은 신경전달물질 중 우울증, 신부전증의 지표 물질인 세로토닌의 농도를 극미량의 시료를 사용하여 정량할 수 있는 방법을 개발하기 위해 초소형 효소 고정화 전극을 개발하였다. 전극은 실리콘 웨이퍼 상에 반도체 공정을 이용하여 마이크로 크기의 Pt 박막 전극을 제작하였고, 전기화학적 방법으로 pyrrole 단량체를 Pt 전극 상에 순환전압전류법을 이용하여 산화적으로 전기 중합하였다. 효소의 고정은 일정 전압을 인가한 시간대 전류법으로 고정화하였다. 제작된 전극은 시간대 전류법으로 세로토닌의 농도에 따른 감도를 측정하였다. 세로토닌의 농도 범위 $1.0{\mu}mol/L{\sim}10mmol/L$에서의 감도는 $7.0{\mu}$A/decade를 나타내었으며, 실험결과에 따라 전극의 표면에서 발생하는 전류는 세로토닌의 농도에 비례함을 알 수 있었다. 전극의 표면분석은 Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy(EDX) 그리고 Auger Electron Spectroscopy(AES)를 이용하여 분석하였다.

The purposes of the study were to analyze the changes in formal attires and decorative features of middle age Korean women during the last half of 20th century and to find out any significant differences in formal attires according to periods. The study was a documentary research, and data were collected from 344 family wedding photographs by convenient sampling. The statistics used were content analysis, frequency and a time series analysis, and the results were as follows : 1. Four schematic clusters of formal attires were categorized according to skirt(chima) length and width, jacket(jogori) length, motifs and decorative features; simple classic, decorative classic, fashionable, and extravagant fashionable. Simple classic attires were popular until 1960s, the decorative classics were appeared from late 1960s to 1970s, fashionable attires were introduced from the late 1970s and the attires became more luxurious and extravagant until 2000. 2. Color symbolism in couples mothers'attires according to the couples gender - pink or red for the bride's mother and blue or green for groom's mother - was introduced from the late 1970s, and reached the maximum level by the early 1980s but slowly disappeared after the late 1980s. 3. The complete fashion cycle did not exist in the formal attires'change, however, since the Period of data were ranged from 1943 to 2000, the 57 years period may not long enough to measure a complete fashion cycle.

The purpose of the present study was to identify the effect of ritual dress on korean catholic priest's impression. The subject consisted of 415 undergraduated students. The experimental materials developed for this study were 3 type color photographs stimuli of catholic priest model and 7-point sementic differential scale composed of 49 bipolar adjectives representing personal traits. The data were analyzed by factor analysis. the major findings drawn from this study were as follows : Four factors emerged to account for the dimentional structure of the impression of each dress style. Four factors were titled as open-hearted mind symbolic meaning nature of priest potency. The open-hearted mind factor was the largest throughout the 3types ritual dress. Casula had a positive effect on open-hearted mind nature of prist and negative on symbolic meaning potency. Sutan had a positive effect on open-hearted mind potency nature of priest and negative on symbolic meaning. Black suit with roman collar had a positive effect on open-hearted mind symbolic meaning nature of prist and negative on potency, Therefore the ritual dress had significant effect on korean catholic priest' impressin of open-hearted mind symbolic meaning nature of prist activity and potency

The leading cause of death in patients with chronic renal failure is cardiovascular diseases. The problems relevant to cardiac surgery in these patients are occurring more frequently with a growing number of patients at risk. Among these, important risk factors related to uremic patients undergone open heart surgery are fluid and electrolytes imbalance, coagulopathy, increased susceptibility to infection. Since 1968 when Lansing and colleagues reported the first successful aortic valve replacement in patients with chronic renal failure and infective endocarditis, there have been increasing reports of the cardiopulmonary bypass surgery in chronic renal failure patients with acceptable perioperative morbidity and mortality From Jan. 1988 to Nov. 1989 we have experienced four uremic patients necessitating open heart surgery ; one needing a coronary artery bypass graft and the other 3 needed cardiac valve replacement. Based on our observations we would like to suggest followings 1]Intraoperative ultrahemofiltration during C-P bypass thought to be an excellent means for the control of hyperkalemia and fluid balance. 2] The immediate postoperative application of peritoneal dialysis instead of hemodialysis is beneficial in controlling fluid and electrolyte imbalance. 3]The cause of one early postoperative death was not associated to renal failure, rather it was the result of an accidental rupture in the right ventricular wall.

A retrospective study of 737 consecutive patients surviving the first 24 hours who underwent valve replacement surgery from July 1980 to June 1993 was undertaken to determine the prevalence, variables that could be used to predict outcome and results of therapy for postoperative acute renal failure[ARF]. Twenty-one patients[2.8 %] developed acute renal failure. Positive risk factors noted in the development of postoperative renal failure included age, New York Heart Association class III & IV, endocarditis and elevated preoperative concentration of serum creatinine. The duration of cardiopulmonary bypass, aortic cross-clamping and the total duration of the operation also closely correlated with the incidence of ARF. The mortality rate for established ARF was 38.1% and ARF was associated with a significant increase in the length of hospitalization, ventilator support and intensive care unit stay. The incidence and mortality rate of oliguric renal failure was 38.1% and 85.7%. The highest mortality rate was associated with two or more postoperative complications and serum creatinine value exceeded 5 mg/dl. We concluded that therapy should be aimed at prevention of oliguric renal failure, or at least its conversion to nonoliguric renal failure, and early institution of renal replacement therapy with intensive support probably gives the best chance for survival.

Because the number of patients who require maintenance hemodialysis is increasing in number recently, angioaccess has become important to many vascular surgeons participating in the management of such patients.The authors created 269 arteriovenous fistulas[AVF] for angioaccess in 229 patients with chronic renal failure[CRF] at the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery in Chungnam National University Hospital during the period from August 1990 to March 1993. We analyzed the results of 260 operations for 220 patients except 9 patients who were lost during the follow up period. We performed snuffbox AVF in 171 cases, classic radiocephalic AVF in 46 cases, direct AVF at other site in 5 cases, forearm Gore-Tex AVF in 29 cases, and upper arm Gore-Tex AVF in 9 cases. We experienced 13 cases of operative failures, 11 cases of early complications, and 60 cases of late complications including obstructions during follow-up period. The 1 year, 2 year and 3 year patency rates of snuffbox AVF[Group 1], classic radiocephalic AVF[Group 2], and Gore-Tex AVF[Group 3] are like followings; 89, 84, 76% in group 1, 84, 75, 68% in group 2, and 79, 66, 55% in group 3. It showed a statistically significant difference between group 1, 2 and group 3.

A 9-month-old, intact female mixed dog was referred to Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital of Gyeongsang National University with symmetrically enlarged and protruded upper jaw. The patient was diagnosed as acute renal failure due to ethylene glycol poisoning and was treated for 1 month in a local animal hospital. In spite of treatment, the patient proceeded to chronic renal failure. Also, the patient's upper jaw begun to enlarge continuously. To evaluate this upper jaw, radiographic examination was performed. Skull radiographs revealed thickening of maxilla, decreased bone opacity, cortical thinning, loss of lamina dura and periodontal space in the maxilla. Diagnosis of rubber jaw syndrome is based on clinicial signs, radiographic findings and laboratory evidence of chronic renal failure due to ethylene glycol poisoning.
