The activity and stability of the metal filter material Pt coated on NOx and soot oxidation were examined. The catalytic reaction test for NOx and soot were also performed independently and simultaneously. As a result, it showed the NO to $NO_2$ shift reaction with 20% conversion, NOx decomposition (about 10%) and perfect soot oxidation on the material Pt coated proceeded. Onset temperature of soot oxidation shift to lower temperature (about $30^{\circ}C$) by generated $NO_2$. The material also was less affected by thermal shock than $Pt/Al_2O_3$ or $Pt/TiO_3$ catalysts due to its stability of surface structure.

Cette étude a pour but d'analyser l'inconscient du texte de Samuel Beckett à l'approche psychanalytique autour de sa pièce anglaise Happy Days(1961) et de sa pièce française Oh les beaux jours(1963) traduite par Beckett lui-même. L'étude a pour base la citation de Rainier Grutman sur l'auto-traduction de Beckett que « son œuvre dans l'ensemble est, avec chaque part monolingue exigeant sa contrepartie en une autre langue ». Cette étude révèle le style de Beckett censé être influencé par la psychanalyse et en même temps des différences entre deux textes qui nous montreront des particularités de son auto-traduction. La scène de Happy Days est composée d'un long monologue de Winnie « enterrée jusqu'au-dessus de la taille ». Elle essaie d'enchaîner par les règles du discours à la manière de raconter un rêve. Winnie évoque deux fois un épisode de Mildred et un épisode de « Monsieur Piper… ou Cooker et la femme ». Ces deux épisodes montrent des images déformées de l'inconscient de Winnie. Le glissement de l'inconscient s'effectue aussi au niveau des signifiants. Par exemple, l'usage répétitif de l'adverbe « up » dans Happy Days et des verbes « tirer » et « lâcher » dans Oh les beaux jours montrent le désir de « flotter dans l'azur » de Winnie. Le texte révèlant l'inconscient d'une façon détournée est nettement différent dans Happy Days et Oh les beaux jours au niveau des indications scéniques, des mots, des styles des phrases, des citations des classiques. Alors que l'allusion des phrases anglaises est supprimée, Beckett rétablit cette suppression par une autre manière dans sa traduction. Par exemple à la place du mot anglais « damask » qui suggère l'influence de Till Damaskus de August Strindberg, il tente de montrer dans Oh les beaux jours le mouvement alternatif de « l'inconnu », héros de Till Damaskus : Beckett traduit la phrase anglaise « then nothing from that day forth only titbits from Reynolds' News » par la phrase française « finie fleurette, la parole est aux offres et demandes ». Sa traduction française montre bien « form is content, content is form ».

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore the levels of depression experienced by clients (N=152) with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus(DM), and to compare the levels of self care activity, metabolic control and cardiovascular risk factors between depressed and non-depressed clients. Method: Participants aged 50 and above were conveniently recruited in B city. The levels of depression, self-care activity, metabolic control of glucose and lipids, and cardiovascular risk factors of the participants were measured by using questionnaires and blood tests from November, 2003 to June, 2004. Data was analyzed with descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, Spearman rho and t-test using the SPSS WIN 10.0 program. Result: The prevalence of depression(CES-D=16) among the participants was $44.1\%$. The levels of self-care activities(p=.012), glucose(p=.019), total cholesterol(p=.022), LDL(.007) and cardiovascular risk factors(p=.012) were significantly higher in the depressed group than those in the non-depressed group. Conclusion: Based on the findings, we concluded that many DM patients experience depression and the depression of type 2 DM clients is significantly related with self care activities, diabetic control, and cardiovascular complications. However, this study did not address causality among these variables. Therefore, further research, such as a longitudinal cohort study, is needed to identify causality among these variables.

The prevalence and toxin characteristics of Bacillus thuringiensis isolated from 39 organic vegetables were investigated. B. thuringiensis was detected in 30 out of the 39 organic vegetables (76.9%) with a mean value of 2.60 log CFU/g. Twenty-five out of the 30 B. thuringiensis isolates (83.3%) showed insecticidal toxicity against Spodoptera exigua. The hblCDA, nheABC, and entFM genes were found to be the major toxin genes, but the ces gene was not detected in any of the tested B. thuringiensis isolates. The hemolysin BL enterotoxin was detected in all 30 B. thuringiensis isolates (100%). The non-hemolytic enterotoxin complex was found in 27 out of 30 B. thuringiensis isolates (90.0%). The B. thuringiensis tested in this study had similar toxin gene characteristics to B. cereus, which possessed more than one toxin gene. B. thuringiensis could have the potential risk of foodborne illness based on the toxin genes and toxin-producing ability.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the levels of physical activity and its relationships with depression, health-related quality of life (QoL), sleep disturbance, and physiological indicators in hemodialysis patients. Methods: The participants in this study were 139 patients undergoing hemodialysis in the hospitals in Busan and Yangsan-si. Data were collected using hematologic tests and questionnaires that contained items about individual characteristics, International Physical Activity Questionnaires (IPAQ), Center For Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D), a 12-item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-12), and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, one way ANOVA, and correlation. Results: Mean age of the participants was $59.91{\pm}12.63$ and mean physical activity levels were $1,660.35{\pm}1,654.17$. Patients who performed higher physical activities during their daily activities reported lower levels of depression (F=4.16, p=.018) and higher levels of QOL (PCS: F=5.00, p=.008, MCS: F=8.66, p<.001) than those of the others who did not perform physical activities. Conclusion: This study showed that the levels of physical activity among hemodialysis patients was significantly associated with their depression and QOL. Developing strategies for enhancing physical activity is warranted to improve depression and QOL among hemodialysis patients.

Exercise is an important strategy for health promotion in patients having osteoarthritis. But, lots of patients with osteoarthritis were underexercised. Exercise pattern and influencing factors of exercise barrier are not well-known. To address this issue, we studied the exercise pattern and influencing factors of exercise barrier in patients with osteoarthritis. The subjects of the study were 463 adult osteoarthritis (Mean age = 61.63 years) who had diagnosed osteoarthritis by rheumatologist. Data were gathered from May 1999 to February 2000 using a questionnaire and exercise barrier(Sallis et al, 1989), exercise pattern(Lee et al., 2000), physical status by WOMAC(Bellamy, 1989), socail support(Sallis et al., 1989), fatigue and pain using graphic rating scale, depression by CES-D(Radloff,1977). Data were analyzed with the SPSS win 6.0 using frequency, ANOVA, Stepwise multiple regression. The results of this study were as follows; 1) 56.4% of sample was 'do not exercise at all', 'longer rest than exercise', was 15.9%, 'longer exercise than rest' was 7.2%, 'exercise regularly' was 20.5%. 2) Social support (F=10.349, p=0.000) and exercise barrier(F=4.455, p=0.004) were showed significantly difference by exercise pattern. 3) Influencing factors of exercise barrier were depression and social support. Thoses explained 13.3% of exercise barrier. In conclusion, half of osteoarthritis patient did not do exercise and it was shown that depression and social support were major influencing factors to exercise barrier. The results of this study can be applied to develop the health promoting educational program for patients with osteoarthritis.
