  • Residue monitoring of propiconazole (PCZ) in cabbage, shallot, and spinach was conducted under multi-trial greenhouse conditions. This study aimed to understand the fate of the applied fungicide in these vegetables. Furthermore, the associated health risk of PCZ in leafy vegetables was assessed through dietary risk assessment. Commercially available PCZ (22% suspension concentrate) was administered thrice according to the OECD fungicide application interval guideline. The plant samples were extracted using a slightly modified QuEChERS technique and analyzed using gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The average PCZ recovery was between 84.5% and 117.6%, with a <5% coefficient of variance. The dissipation of PCZ residue in cabbage, shallot, and spinach after 14 days was 96%, 90%, and 99%, respectively, with half-lives of <5 days. Meanwhile, dietary risk assessments of PCZ residues in the studied vegetables using the risk quotient (RQ) were significant < 100 (RQ < 100). Thus, the population groups considered in this study were not at substantial risk from consuming leafy vegetables sprayed with PCZ following critical, good agricultural practices.

  • This study investigated the effect of oral health on health-related quality of life in cancer patients and cancer survivors using data from the 7th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination survey. Data analysis was a complex sample analysis using SPSS/WIN 26.0. As a result of conducting complex sample logistic regression analysis to investigate factors affecting the quality of life of cancer patients and cancer survivors, the average quality of life was 1.18 points for cancer patients and 1.16 points for cancer survivors. The quality of life of cancer patients was significantly lowerer when they had discomfort chewing and speech difficulties, and needed dentures. Cancer suvivors was significantly lowerer when they had speech difficulties. Therefore, it is necessary to recognize the importance of oral care for cancer patients and cancer survivors, and to develop and utilize oral health care programs so that continuous and professional access to oral health care is necessary.

  • In this study, the response of 22 soybean cultivar sprouts to flooding stress was investigated. After sprouts were subjected to flooding stress for 10 days at the V4-V5 growth stages, their dry weights were compared. All plants were kept in a greenhouse under natural light conditions, an average daytime temperature of $35.6{\pm}5.3^{\circ}C$ and an average nighttime temperature of $18.2{\pm}1.7^{\circ}C$. Soybeans were grown in a concrete bed filled with silt loam soil. Subjecting plants to flooding stress resulted in a large reduction in plant dry weight, plant height, number of nodes, and number of leaves. Cultivars differed significantly in their responses to flooding stress, as indicated by these characteristics (p<0.05). Soybean cultivars were classified into three groups based on their degree of flood tolerance: strong, moderate, and weak. Hannamkong, Namhaekong, Sobaegnamulkong, and Sorogkong had strong tolerance for flood conditions. Tawonkong, Pureunkong, Eunhakong, Myeongjunamulkong, Doremikong, Saebyeolkong, Paldokong, Sowonkong, Pungsannamulkong, Dagikong, Dachaekong, and Anpyeongkong had weak tolerance for flood conditions.

  • Decision problem called an optimal release policies, after testing a software system in development phase and transfer it to the user, is studied. The applied model of release time exploited infinite non-homogeneous Poisson process. This infinite non-homogeneous Poisson process is a model which reflects the possibility of introducing new faults when correcting or modifying the software. The failure life-cycle distribution used generalized gamma type distribution which has the efficient various property because of various shape and scale parameter. Thus, software release policies which minimize a total average software cost of development and maintenance under the constraint of satisfying a software reliability requirement becomes an optimal release policies. In a numerical example, after trend test applied and estimated the parameters using maximum likelihood estimation of inter-failure time data, estimated software optimal release time.

  • Brown and Proschan(1983) introduced a model for imperfect repair. At each failure of a device, with probability p, it is repaired completely or replaced with a new device(perfect repair), and with probability 1-p, it is returned to the functioning state, but it is only recovered to its condition just prior to failure(imperfect repair or minimal repair). In this paper, we limit the number of consecutive minimal repairs by n. We find some useful properties about $\mu$$_{k}$, the expected time between the k-th and the (k+1)-st repair under he assumption that only minimal repairs are performed. Then, we assign cost to each repair and find the value of n which minimized the long-run average cost for a fixed p under the condition that the life distribution F os the device is DMRL.L.
