People can access to their vital signs easy through portable devices and wearable devices. The vital signs are used only for the purpose of health care, and can not be found when they are used for purposes other than health care. In this paper, we propose a web site to judge the emotional state of a viewer by using vital signs provided by smart bands. On the proposed web sites, user can see the overall trend of a person's vital signs and the vital signs of a person's best scenes and specific scenes. In this paper, we recognized the necessity to utilize the vital signs as an aspect other than existing health care. In this study, we analyzed the emotional state of people with vital signs and implemented them as a web site. In this paper, we store vital signs in a database, apply algorithms based on stored data, and draw graphs to provide user - specific graphs and graphs of all users on the Web site.

본 연구의 목적은 3주 동안 장기간 냉각상태로 보관된 개 정자의 기능적 특성을 알아보고자 두 종류의 정자 희석액, Glucose-BSA(G-BSA), Dimitropoulos-II(BIMI)가 정자의 기능적 특성에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 한다. 개 정액을 수지법에 의해 채취하여 원심분리한 후 정장은 제거하였다. 정자를 G-BSA나 DIMI으로 희석하여 최종 농도를 $100\times10^6$ sperm/ml로 하였다. 희석된 정자를 정자 운송 시스템을 이용하여 루지애나 주립 대학에서 뉴올리언즈 실험실까지 운송하였다. 정자 운송 시스템은 $20^{\circ}C$에서 $9^{\circ}C$까지 분당 $0.08^{\circ}C$ 냉각율로 설정하였다. 희석된 정자는 $4^{\circ}C$에서 3주간 보관하였다. 보관 1일부터, 매주 단위로 정자의 활력, 정자 원형질막 고유성(생존성), 정자 첨체의 고유성을 검사하였다. 또한 체외조건하에서의 정자 번식 능력을 평가하기 위해 zona binding assay를 실시하였다. 실험 결과 냉각 상태로 3주 동안 보관된 개 정자는 여전히 정자의 기능적 특성을 나타냈다. 냉각기간이 길어질수록 정자의 활력 및 생존성은 감소하였으며(P<0.01), 첨체의 고유성은 냉각기간에 따라 감소하였으나 유의성은 없었다. 정자의 특성 중 활력이 다른 특성에 비해 냉각처리에 민감한 반응을 보였다. G-BSA배지에 보관된 정자의 활력 및 생존성이 DIMI에 비해 높게 나타났으며, 1 주 동안 보관된 정자의 생존성의 비교시 유의성이 높게 나타났다(P<0.05). 그러나 첨체의 고유성은 1일 동안 DIMI에 보관된 정자에서 높게 나타났다(P<0.05). 3주 동안 냉각상태로 보관된 개 정자는 여전히 난자의 투명대에 결합하는 능력을 보였으며, G-BSA에 보관된 정자의 경우 난자에 부착되는 평균 정자 수가 보관일수에 따라 유의적으로 감소하였다(P<0.05). 그러나 희석액 종류에 따른 난자에 부착되는 평균 정자 수의 유의적 차이는 없었다. 정자의 활력 및 생존성과 난자의 투명대에 결합하는 정자 수와의 상관관계를 본 결과, 활력 및 생존성이 높은 정자일수록 난자의 투명대에 많이 결합하여 정자의 잠재적 번식력이 증가함을 보였다. 결론적으로 G-BSA나 DIMI의 희석액으로 희석된 후 $4^{\circ}C$에서 냉각 보관된 정자는 3주 동안 정자의 기능적 특성을 유지하였으며 냉각 보관 2주까지 좋은 성적의 정자 특성을 나타냈다. 개 정자 냉각 보존에 대안적인 희석액으로 G-BSA도 사용 가능한 것으로 사료된다.

This study aims tried to present develop a management plan for about old and big trees and legally protected trees by investigating through the present the current status and the distribution of the legally protected trees and old and big tree that range in Gwangju, South Korea. The number of legally protected plants that distributed in Gwangju City is 68 individual trees from 9 species. The largest number was found in Gwangsan-gu (18 trees). The total number of the old and big trees that are distributed in Gwangju City was confirmed as 155 individual trees from 10 species. It must to be corrected to a correct plant species name that species name is written in review articles incorrectly. The average vitality rate of the legally protected plants was 1.2 and the status of ground was 1.7 on average. And the vitality rate of the old and big trees was 1.3 and the status of ground was 2.0 on average. Vitality are not significantly different between the legally protected trees and old and big trees. Ground status of old and big trees worse than legally protected trees. Gingko biloba (found in Gwangsan-gu Songdaedong Daechon village) was only legally protected plant that requires urgent management due to low vitality rate (between 3.2 and 4.0). Among old and big trees Salix glandulosa which is found in Gwangsan-gu Sansu-dong Gamdong village was only one that requires urgent care. The most important status for the old and big tree is securing minimal space for growth. Therefore, we conclude that the most urgent measure in the management and projection of old and big trees and legally protected plants is removal of asphalt or cement above the surface of root system.

성인의 하루 섭취 열량은 대략 2,000㎉ 로, 이중 약 20%는 뇌에서 소비한다. 뇌에는 1,000억 개가 넘는 신경세포가 있는데, 이 세포들이 제대로 기능하기 위 해서는 생각보다 많은 에너지가 필요하다. 이와 관련해 현대인들의 우울증의 원인을 식습관에서 찾는 견해도 있다. 균형이 맞지 않는 식습관 때문에 뇌가 활력을 잃어 멍하고 무기력한 상태가 되는 경우를 우울증으로 판단하는 경우가 적지 않기 때문이다. 그렇다면 식습관만 제대로 바꿔도 가벼운 우울증은 금방 나을 수 있게 될 것이다. 일본의 대중지'주간 겐다이'는 최근호에서 약학 전문가 이쿠타 사토시 박사의 의견을 빌어 뇌에 활력을 주는 식품을 소개했다.

Purpose: Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is a very useful procedure in diagnosing gastrointestinal diseases. However, there can be some difficulty in performing this procedure in children due to the associated discomfort. Recently, sedative agents such as midazolam have been introduced to alleviate this problem quite successfully. In our study, we attempted to confirm the safety and efficacy of midazolam use by monitoring the vital signs of children undergoing endoscopy. Methods: We analyzed data on 244 children who received EGD in the department of pediatrics at Severance Hospital, Yonsei University between August 2003 and July 2005. We evaluated $O_2$ saturation, heart rate and change of mental status before and during the procedure and analyzed the results using the SPSS 12.0 package (Chi-square test, cross table method, etc.). Results: There was no significant difference in vital signs measured before and during EGD between midazolam treated and non treated children. There was no significant relationship between the amount of midazolam given and $O_2$ saturation or a change of mental status. Regarding the $O_2$ saturation, it was decreased during EGD in both groups with p<0.01 though no difference was noted between the groups; the $O_2$ level was maintained above 95% in all patients. The heart rate was also increased during EGD in both groups with a p<0.01; however, no significant difference was noted between the groups. Conclusion: We confirmed the safety of low dose midazolam by evaluating the vital signs of children during endoscopies. However, the doses used were not sufficient for sedation or to obtain an amnestic effect.

The purpose of this study was to analyze and evaluate music intervention research conducted with high-risk neonates in NICUs in both domestic and international settings. Seventeen music intervention studies were identified, and their characteristics, including type of music, music provider, and treatment frequency, and outcomes (i.e., neonatal vital signs) were reviewed and analyzed along with meta-analysis. For music interventions targeting high-risk neonates in NICUs, the effect sizes of the neonates' vital signs were classified as either medium or large. In addition, larger effect sizes were associated with a combination of live and recorded music, nonmusical therapists as the music providers, and treatment frequency of one to five sessions per week. These research findings verify the clinical value of music for high-risk neonates and provide insights into the selection of music elements, music delivery methods, and music providers in NICU music interventions.

This study measured the vitality of Pinus densiflora and Ginko biloba and analyzed the differences of vitality levels among trees based on artificial management. Research has shown that the mean value of cambial electrical resistance (CER) on Pinus densiflora was $14.9K{\Omega}$(between $8.5{\sim}37.5K{\Omega}$), and for Ginko biloba it was $13.5K{\Omega}$ (between 6.4 and $40.5K{\Omega}$). For the purpose of artificial management, over 50% of trees were covered up with soil and about 40% of trees were not protected by fence to enable growth spaces. It was seen that the CER of trees covered up with soil was significantly higher than that of trees which were not covered up with soil. These results indicate that it is necessary to remove the soil covering for effective management of monumental trees.
