To measure the time required for ginseng explants to become determined to form flower buds, we cultured zygotic embryos, seedlings, and cotyledonary nodes on MS medium supplemented with BA and GA$_3$of 5 ${\mu}$M each (flower inducing medium, FIM) for various periods and transferred to the basal medium. The explants required a minimum of 10 days on FIM to be determined. Histological observations revealed that the axillary meristem to be fated to develop into flower bud remained in a state of shoot meristem during the first 10 days of culture and differentiated into flower bud after 15 days of culture. We suggest that the in-vitro flowering system described in this study is useful in investigating (a) regulatory element(s) to cause the phase change from the vegetative to reproductive state by comparing predetermined explants with determined ones at the molecular level.

Purpose: An increase in the breastfeeding rate has been followed by an increase in the number of mothers seeking help in relactation. We investigated the factors related to successful relactation by assessing the impact of medications, supplementer, consultations, and family support. Methods: A retrospective review of the medical records and telephone survey of mothers who had visited the relactation clinic were conducted from January 2004 to April 2007. Results: Data from 84 mothers were analyzed to identify the factors associated with success in relactation. Seventy-five percent of the mothers succeeded in obtaining exclusive breastfeeding. Success in relactation was associated with informed referral from medical personnel, the use of galactogogues, and family support. Conclusion: This study provides new and noteworthy insights concerning relactation. This highlights the need to inform the mothers about the data of relactation, to use galactogogues, and to have their families involved for psychological support and endurance during visits to the relactation clinic.

Age and growth of Brown croaker Miichthys miiuy were estimated using right sagittal otoliths of 327 fish specimens from August 2015 to July 2016 in Korea. Annual rings in otoliths were formed from March to June once a year. The oldest specimens were 11 yr in female and 9 yr in male. Brown croaker began spawning in September and showed a peak in October. Total length and body weight relationships showed no significant difference between females and males (P>0.05), and can be expressed as $BW=1.15{\times}10^{-5}{\times}TL^{2928}$ ($R^2=0.98$). Estimated von Bertalanffy growth curve was $L_t=182.4(1-e^{-0.067(t+1.754)})$ ($R^2=0.96$).

A construction post evaluation is introduced to provide information that can be used for similar construction projects in the future through the evaluation of the efficiency of a public construction project and the verification of the appropriateness of the project results. However, it is not widely used due to a lack of awareness of the method. For this reason, the aim of this study is to provide a basic frame that can be utilized as a reference for a similar project in the future based on the construction post evaluation. More specifically, a more effective analysis method for the construction post evaluation is proposed and then an exemplary analysis is performed based on the method. The paper analyzes 293 cases stored in construction CALS. Construction cost growth rates of railway projects are tend to be greater than other project types like highway, expressway, and harbour. Then, construction schedule grwoth rates of expressway are greater than others. This is expected to provide useful information for a future project, and serve as a basic frame. Moreover, it is also meaningful that a project can be analyzed from different perspectives through the construction post evaluation.

New social risks is likely to emerge from instability of family structure, flexible of labor market, movement of globalization which is related with the post-industrial society and so on. Especially, a lot of women are exposure to not only old social risks but also new social risks. A breakdown of traditional family structure, flexible of labor market which is be followed by globalization, women's poverty and limited approaches at social security services are the representation risk which is confront to women. In this study, therefore, the social risk is recognized by breakdown of traditional family structure risk which comes from the social change, aging of population, the decrease of labor population and New Right ideology. The purpose of the study is to arrange the new welfare state at gender equality level by anglicizing about women's new social risks.

Minor enterprises can successfully build up their market share plans in a relatively shorter time than compared with major enterprises, which require long time for design developments in their big organization. Therefore, there are some items that are more suitable to the minor enterprises. For example, computer desk may be the one. It must be one of the strategically suitable items of minor enterprises rather than of large enterprises because of their own easy production policies. This paper is based on a research report that I submitted to Gyongsan-Si, Gyongbuk-Do which supported a small company for a special purpose of its provincial economic policy. I took part in the research and suggested five types of characteristic concepts and the ideas. And as a result. the type war accepted as the most appropriate one of them to produce. And the acception was based on the following five factors; consumer's need, productivity, proper price, energy saving, and user' easiness.

The open bite malocclusion is a common clinical entity and has multifactorial causes. Development of effective treatment plan and management is dependent on proper diagnosis. The skeletal open bite patient requires a coordinated orthodontic and orthognathic surgical approach to achieve stable occlusion, acceptable esthetics, and improved function. But in case of open bite with severely decayed dentition, restoration in the entire dentition is necessary. Using the facial analysis and diagnostic wax-up, the most effective treatment was prosthetic rehabilitation. The provisional restorations were fabricated to satisfy esthetic and functional requirements, which result in the uniformly distributed occlusal force, anterior and canine guidance. The inter-arch relationship, labio-dental harmony, and the soft tissue aspect, which is important to estimate the longevity were evaluated. Definitive restorations of monolithic zirconia were made by replicating provisional restorations by using the latest CAD/CAM technology. They were delivered to the patient and clinical follow-up observation was satisfactory.

Childhood depression was not officially accepted as a separate diagnosis until 20-25years ago. Although DSM-III R criteria gave us a starting point and are gaining acceptances as a useful tool for diagnosing childhood depression recently, many professionals feel that additional modifications are needed to better reflect the developmental aspects of children. And because children are relatively poor in expressing their moods or feelings due to weak reality sence and/or cognitive and linguistic limitations, the author too carefully suggest that developmental perspectives of children should be considered in diagnosing childhood depression. Little is known about the extent to which childhood depression precedes adult depression and persists into adult life and about the impact of it on the personality formation. Some evidences that childhood depressive symtoms can be quite enduring make it important to make an early diagnosis and treatment.

Implant has been an effective treatment option for the patients with oligodontia. However, it still remains unclear when the implant should be placed. Skeletal growth that can appear even after the growth period can lead to infraocclusion of the implant which can cause functional or esthetic complications. In order to minimize these problems, definitive restorations should be placed after the functional and esthetic rehabilitation is achieved through the use of provisional restorations. Definitive restorations made with monolithic zirconia were created by replicating provisional restorations by using the latest CAD/CAM technology. These definitive restorations were delivered to the patient and clinical observation after the treatment showed satisfactory result.

Last January 2017, Donald Trump was inaugurated as the 45th president of the United States. He actively claimed a priority for the United States, which is referred as America First, during his presidential campaign. However, his political assertions turned out to be as Isolationist in terms of foreign policy. It becomes a serious problem for South Korea because South Korea is solely dependent on the U.S. "Extended Deterrence" of North Korea's nuclear threats. In other words, there will be a higher likelihood for North Korea to misinterpret the relationship between South Korea and the U.S. Due to his foreign policy, there is a possible provocation by North Korea. Therefore, ROK-U.S. Alliance, the model of Asymmetry Alliance in order to prepare for North Korea's nuclear provocation, will be evaluated through America's perspective based on "Autonomy-Security Trade-off Model". For this purpose, this research will evaluate ROK-U.S. Alliance with regards to a threat perception, policy coordination, and a value as an ally. Based on the evaluation, it will deduce tactical implications of South Korea's alliance.
