Twenty-three patients with traumatic diaphragmatic injuries treated at the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Keimyung University Dongsan Medical Center from Aug. 1978 to Nov. 1990 were reviewed. There were 19 male and 4 female patients. The age distribution was ranged from 1.5 to 72 years, with a mean age of 34.3 years. Sixteen patients had blunt trauma[traffic accident 14, fall down 2], and 7 had penetrating injuries[stab wound 6, broken glass 1]. Sixteen [70 percent]of the injuries occurred on the left side and 7[30 percent] on the right side. Fifteen patients were operated on during the acute phase, 5 patients during the latent phase, 2 patients during the obstructive phase. The surgical approach in 20 patients was through a thoracotomy; in 2 patients, a thoracoabdominal incision was necessary, and in 1 patient, a laparotomy was performed. Herniated organs in thorax included stomach[10], colon[5], small bowel[5], spleen[4], liver[2]. Postoperative complications included wound infection, empyema, pneumonia, hepatitis and respiratory failure. There were 3 postoperative deaths, 2 with cerebral dysfunction and 1 with sepsis.

From June 1984 to Aug. 1986, 90 cases of open heart surgery were performed at the department of cardiothoracic surgery of Kosin Medical College. There were 63 cases of congenital cardiac anomalies and 27 cases of acquired heart diseases. The sex ratio of congenital and acquired heart diseases were represented as 1.4:1 and 1:1.5 respectively. The age distribution was ranged from 7/12 to 56 years old. Among the 63 congenital cardiac anomalies, 49 cases of acyanotic group and 14 cases of cyanotic group were noted. In 49 cases of acyanotic group, 32 VSD, 15 ASD, 1 PS, and 1 RCA-LV fistula were noticed. In 14 cases of cyanotic group, 7 TOF, 1 TOF (Dextrosardia) combined with IVC interruption, 1 Triology of Fallot, 2 Pentalogy of Fallot. 1 DORV, 1 TA with PDA, VSD, ASD and Left SVC and 1 TAPVC were included. Of the 27 acquired heart diseases, 13 mitral, 3 aortic , 6 bival, 3 triplevalvular diseases and 2 LA myxomas were noted. Overall mortality were 11 cases, which included 2 cases of acyanotic heart diseases, 6 cases of cyanotic heart diseases and 3 cases of acquired hear diseases.

A survey was conducted on the vegetation of Seogmo island, which is small island (ca. 41 okm2) located about 1km west of Kanghwa island in the central Korea, from Aug. 1983 to May 1984. Based on the field data, actual vegetation map and potential natural vegetation map were made. The island is covered with broad-leaved trees dominated with Quercus variabilis. The dominance diversity curves obtaiend in different associations are grouped in two types, lognormal distribution forms at the undisturbed vegetation and geometric series at the disturbed or rocky sites. It seems that the curves show to us the nature of their ecocline by the hypothesis of some investigators, i.e. Random niche boundary hypothesis, niche preemption hypothesis, lognormal distribution and logarithmic series. Total numbers of vascular plant species of the island were recorded 108 families, 348 genera, 475 species, 73 variaties and 7 forma. And Pte.-Q Index, 0.93, and Fisher's Index, 589.8, were higher than those in neighboring islands.

The authors made a clinical study of 107 cases of empyema who were treated at Department of Thoracic Surgery of Chungnam National University Hospital during the period of Jan. 1976 through Aug. 1982 and compared the empyema of infant and children with that of adults. Following was the remits: 1. Male was predominant to female with the ratio of 2.5 to 1 and adult to infant was 2.6 to 1. 2. The cardinal symptoms were dyspnea, coughing, chest pain and fever. 3. Positive remit of bacteriological culture study was reported in 57% and the most common causative organism was staphylococcus in infant and childhood, E. coil in adult. 4. Most frequent predisposing factors of thoracic empyema in infant and childhood was pneumonia [53%], and in adult was pulmonary tuberculosis [40%]. 5. Treatment were combined with antibiotics therapy and several surgical procedures for empyema. 24 cases [22.4%] required open thoracotomy. 6. The mortality rate was 7.4% [8/107]. 86 cases [80.4%] were discharged with recovery and improvement.

In Korea the population of breeding house swallow is continuously decreasing. In this regard this study was conducted to find out the overall population trend during 2001-2005. The areas of urban and rural sites were separated to estimate population. Also the sites in Yangpyung areas were chosen to compare population density between two sites during Mar-Aug, 2006. The house swallow had two breeding periods and I tried to correlated amount of days of incubation and number of eggs in the nest. After egg hatching the homing behavior also was estimated assuming lack of foods takes longer to bring foods back to the nest. This study signified that a long term study should be conducted for population change and spring arrival time due to climate change in Korea.

It has been well known that infertile women experience not only emotional disturbance but also stress. But there is no concern about male infertility patients. So phychiatric symptoms were studied with SCL-90 (Symptom Check List-90) in 30 infertile men who was operated testicular sperm extraction (TESE) in Samsung Cheil Hospital and in age matched 31 fertile men from Jan. 1998 to Aug. 1998. In 5 symptom dimensions (Obcessive-Compulsive, Interpersonal Sensitivity, Depression, Phobic anxiety, Psychoticisim) scores. The Infertile group scored significantly higher than the control group. The result revealed that infertile men also experienced substantially more psychiatric symptoms than fertile men. Considering this results, psychiatric evaluation and tender care by infertility specialist are necessary for infertile men during and after evaluation and treatment.

전주의 시장에서 구입한 남생이 (갑장 21cm)를 수조에 넣어 기르던 중 5개의 알을 낳았다. 알의 크기는 3.5-3.9${\times}$1.9-2.4cm이었으며 알의 무게는 7.2-10.9g 이었다. 붉은귀거북의 알과 비교할 때 크기와 모양이 유사하여 남생이 알과 구별하기 어려우나 남생이의 알이 약간 길고 색깔도 갈색의 색조가 약간 있었다. 부란기에 넣어 3$0^{\circ}C$에서 75일간 유지하였으나 부화에는 실패하였다.

The stationary point structures and relative energies between them as well as binding energies of $(CO)_2$ have been investigated at the CCSD(T) level using the correlation-consistent basis sets aug-cc-pVXZ(X=T,Q,5). It is found that while the equilibrium structure corresponds to the C-bonded T-shaped configuration with intermolecular distance of 4.4 $\AA$, there exists another minimum, slightly higher in energy ($\sim$10 $cm^{-1}$) than the global minimum, corresponding to the O-bonded T-shaped configuration with the intermolecular distance of 3.9 $\AA$. The CCSD(T) basis set limit binding energy of $(CO)_2$ is estimated to be 132 $cm^{-1}$.

We present calculations for diglycine - $(H_2O)_n$ (n = 0-3) to examine the effects of microsolvating water on the relative stability of the zwitterionic vs. canonical forms of the dipeptide. We calculate the structures, energies and Gibbs free energies of the conformers at wB97XD/6-311++G** and MP2/aug-cc-pvdz levels of theory level of theory. We predict that microsolvation by up to three water molecules does not give thermodynamic stability of the zwitterion relative to the canonical forms. Our calculations also suggest that zwitterionic diglycine - $(H_2O)_3$ is not stable kinetically in low temperature gas phase environment.

To investigate the effect of several factors on serum lipids in maternal and infants umbilical cord blood, 111 cases of newborn infants and women delivered of a child who had delivered at hospital located in Chung-Ju city from Feb. 1, 1996 to Aug. 31, 1996 were studied. The gestational ages of cases were 37 to 42 weeks and the average maternal ages were 28.1$\pm$4.25 years old without any other medical or obstetric problems. No relationships between maternal consumption of coffee and maternal serum lipid levels were observed. However, serum total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol levels in infants'umbilical cord were significantly increased in proportion to increasing maternal consumption of coffee. The other factors such as alcohol drinking habits and residency affected maternal serum lipid levels and not serum lipid levels in infants' umbilical cord. Delivery frequency showed very little or no effects on serum lipid levels in both maternal blood and infant's umbilical cord blood. In conclusion, maternal consumption of coffee significantly correlated with increasement of serum lipid levels in infants'umbilical cord.
