와동 형성시 C-factor와 충전방법이 복합레진 수복물에서의 수축 응력에 미치는 영향을 평가하고자 발거된 소구치를 대상으로 C-factor가 3.6과 1.0인 와동을 각각 형성한 후 hybrid형 복합레진인 $Z-250^{TM}$(3M ESPE U.S.A.)과 flowable형 복합레진인 $Filtek\;flow^{TM}$(3M ESPE U.S.A.)를 사용하여 layering을 시행하고 광중합하면서 strain gauge법을 이용하여 치질에서의 수축 응력을 측정하였다. 시편을 절단하여 레진과 상아질 사이 계면의 접착상태를 주사전자현미경으로 관찰한 결과 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. C-factor에 따른 수축 응력을 측정한 결과 C-factor가 3.7인 제 1군과 제 2군 그리고 제 5군이 900초 후 각각 0.11, 0.07, 0.07 MPa로 C-factor가 1.0인 제 3군과 제 4군의 0.05와 0.04 MPa에 비해 크게 나타났다(P<0.05). 1,800초 후에는 제 1군, 제 5군, 제 2군, 제 3군, 제 4순으로 크게 나타났으나 제 2군과 제 3군 그리고 제 3군과 제 4군 사이에는 유의성이 없었다. 2. 재료에 따른 수축 응력의 차이는 C-factor가 3.7인 와동의 경우 hybrid형 레진인 Filtek $Z-250^{TM}$이 flowable 레진인 $Filtek\;flow^{TM}$에 비해 수축 응력이 크게 나타났으나(P<0.05), C-factor가 1.0인 와동의 경우 재료의 차이에 따른 수축응력의 유의한 차이가 없었다. 3. Layering에 따른 수축 응력은 Filtek $Z-250^{TM}$을 layering 없이 bulk 충전한 제 1군에 비해 flowable 레진을 layering한 제 5군이 전 측정 시간대에 걸쳐 수축 응력이 유의하게 낮게 나타났다(P<0.05). 4. C-factor가 3.7인 제 1군과 제 2군 제 5군은 900초까지 수축 응력이 증가하다 이후 점차 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 5. C-factor가 1.0인 와동의 경우 충전용 레진 종류에 관계없이 레진과 와동벽 사이에 긴밀한 접착 상태를 보였으나 C-factor가 3.7인 와동의 경우 부분적으로 틈이 관찰되었다. 전반적으로 와동저에 비해 와동벽에서 틈이 더 많이 관찰되었다. 이상의 결과를 종합하여 보면 복합레진 수복시 수축응력에 따른 합병증을 예방하기 위해 C-factor를 크지 않게 와동을 설계, 형성하여야 하며 C-factor가 클 경우 flowable 레진을 이장하는 등 재료적인 면에서의 선택과 적용법이 중요할 것으로 사료된다.

To obtain an exact flow loss in piping systems is very important in the face of efficiency anticipation and work control of plant. The object of this study is to get the flow loss through the experiment for sudden expansion and contraction part of circular pipe nozzle. The experiment in this study is performed after getting the flow loss factor for sudden expansion and contraction through preliminary experiments. It is confirmed that the results of this study agreed with the approximated equation of Ikeda and Matsuo. It is proved that flow loss factor ${\zeta}_3$for sudden expansion and contraction part of circular pipe is dependent on $L/D_1$in these experimental conditions.

A comparison was made of the effects of selective ${\alpha_1}-adrenoceptor$ agonist phenylephrine and selective ${\alpha_2}-adrenoceptor$ agonist clonidine on endothelium-containing and endothelium-denuded rings of the rat aorta. In the case of phenylephrine, removal of endothelium increased sensitivity 2.5 fold at $EC_{50}$ level and maximum contractive response 1.4 fold. In the case of clonidine, which gave only 15% of maximum contractive response given to phenylephrine on endothelium-containing rings, removal of the endothelium increased sensitivity 5.6 fold at $EC_{50}$ level and maximum contractive response 5 fold, which was about 55% of that given by phenylephrine. In endothelium-denuded ring, phenylephrine-induced contraction tended to be more increased in tonic contraction than in phasic contraction as compared to that in endothelium-containing ring, while clonidine-induced contraction was monophasic and was increased only in tonic contraction. In the calcium-free solution or in the presence, of verapamil, contraction stimulated by clonidine was almost abolished while that stimulated by phenylephrine produced only phasic contraction. The depression of sensitivity to these agonists in rings with endothelium appeared to be due to the vasodepressor action of endothelium derived relaxing factor (EDRF), because hemoglobin, a specific blocking agent of EDRF, abolished this depression. It is unlikely that the endothelium-dependent relaxation was due to stimulation of release of EDRF, because clonidine did not produce endothelium-dependent relaxation in 5-hydroxytryptamine-precontracted ring even when its contractile action was blocked by the ${\alpha_1}-adrenoceptor$ antagonist, prazosin. When the efficacy of phenylephrine was reduced to about the initial efficacy of clonidine by pretreatment with dibenamine, the contraction-response curves for phenylephrine became very similar to the corresponding curves obtained for clonidine before receptor inactivation. In the dibenamine-treated rings, contraction of phenylephrine was abolished in calcium-free solution or in the presence of verapamil like that obtained for clonidine before receptor inactivation. These results suggest that EDRF spontaneously released from endothelium depress contraction more profoundly in a case of an agonist with low efficacy and the phenylephrine-induced contraction was totally dependent on extracellular calcium as was that obtained for clonidine when the efficacy of phenylephrine was reduced to that of clonidine by irreversible inactivation of ${\alpha_1}-adrenoceptor$ with dibenamine.

We investigated the action of NOS inhibitors on NOS in rats. Both of nitric oxide synthase inhibitors, $N^G$-monomethyl-L-arginine $(L-NMMA,\;3\;{\mu}M)$ or $N^G$-nitro-L-arginine methylester $(L-NAME,\;30\;{\mu}M),$ augmented phenylephrine $(PE,\;10^{-7}\;M)-induced$ contraction which was inhibited by acetylcholine (ACh) in rat thoracic aorta. This augmentation by L-NAME or L-NMMA was attenuated with the treatment of NO precursor, arginine. ACh, however, decreased the augmentation induced by L-NMMA, but not by L-NAME. Superoxide dismutase (SOD, 50 u/ml) potentiated an inhibitory effect of ACh on the PE $(10^{-7}\;M)-induced$ contraction. It has been known that platelet activating factor itself induces iNOS. Platelet activating factor $(PAF,\;10^{-7}\;M)$ inhibited PE $(10^{-7}\;M)-induced$ contraction. Pretreatment with L-NMMA (30 mM) or L-NAME (30 mM) significantly blocked the inhibitory action of PAF on PE-induced contraction. L-NMMA (100 mM) or L-NAME (100 mM) reduced nerve conduction velocity (NCV) relevant to nNOS in rat sciatic nerve. ACh attenuated the reduction of NCV by L-NMMA-, but not by L-NAME-induced reduction of NCV. These results suggest that L-NMMA and/or L-NAME have different action on three types of NOS in rats.

PURPOSE: This study was to investigate the Glycolysis mediated sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) $Ca^{2+}$ signal regulates mitochondria $Ca^{2+}$ during skeletal muscle contraction by using glycolysis inhibitor. METHODS: To examine the effect of Glycolysis inhibitor on SR and mitochondria $Ca^{2+}$ content, we used skeletal muscle fiber from gastrocnemius muscle. 2-deoxy glucose and 3-bromo pyruvate used as glycolysis inhibitor, it applied to electrically stimulated muscle contraction experiment. Intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ content, SR, mitochondria $Ca^{2+}$ level and mitochondria membrane potential (MMP) was detected by confocal microscope. Mitochondrial energy metabolism related enzyme, citric acid synthase activity also examined for mitochondrial function during the muscle contraction. RESULTS: Treatment of 2-DG and 3BP decreased the muscle contraction induced SR $Ca^{2+}$ increase however the mitochondria $Ca^{2+}$ level was increased by treatment of inhibitors and showed and overloading as compared with the control group. Glycolysis inhibitor and thapsigargin treatment showed a significant decrease in MPP of skeletal muscle cells compared to the control group. CS activity significantly decreased after pretreatment of glycolysis inhibitor during skeletal muscle contraction. These results suggest that regulation of mitochondrial $Ca^{2+}$ levels by glycolysis is an important factor in mitochondrial energy production during skeletal muscle contraction CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that mitochondria $Ca^{2+}$ level can be regulated by SR $Ca^{2+}$ level and glycolytic regulation of intraocular $Ca^{2+}$ signal play pivotal role in regulation of mitochondria energy metabolism during the muscle contraction.

본 논문은 냉장고 수축팽창 소음의 원인 및 메커니즘을 파악하고 소음 감소 방법을 제안한다. 냉장고에서 발생하는 수축팽창 소음은 주로 내부부품 사이의 접촉면에서 발생하는 스틱슬립 현상에 의한 것이다. 스틱슬립 현상을 일으키는 요인을 규명하기 위해 마찰실험이 수행되었다. 또한 내부부품의 진동레벨을 측정하여 수축팽창 소음의 특성 및 위치를 규명하였다. 실험 결과를 바탕으로 요인별 소음 특성을 검증하는 실험이 진행되었다. 이를 통해 마찰실험과 냉장고 수축팽창 소음 발생 위치와 빈도가 동일한 것을 확인하였다. 하중적재로 수직력이 증가하면 진동레벨도 증가하였다. 또한 표면거칠기를 증가하였을 때 수축팽창 소음이 저감되는 것으로 확인되었다. 따라서, 마찰실험 결과와 동일하게 접촉면의 표면거칠기를 증가하는 것이 수축팽창 소음저감 방법이라는 결론을 도출하였다.

The air gap between the metal and mold, formed by shrinkage during solidification, causes surface and subsurface cracks in the continuous casting process. Molten crack on the surface might also occur due to improper heat transfer between them. In order to compensate the air gap in mold design, the thermal contraction is an essential factor. In this study, the thermal contraction and expansion behaviors were examined from the ($\alpha$ and pearlite)/${\gamma}$ to ${\gamma}$/$\delta$ transformations in continuous casting steels by the commercial dilatometer and the self- assembled dilatometer with laser distance measurement. It was found that the thermal contraction and expansion behaviors were very dependant on the phase transformation of the ${\gamma}$/$\delta$ as well as ($\alpha$ and pearlite)/${\gamma}$. The sudden volume change from $\delta$ to ${\gamma}$ which might cause cracks in the continuous casting process, was observed on cooling just below the melting temperature by the self-assembled dilatometer.

Gallstone diseases appear frequently in surgical patients. One of the etiolic factors in the formation of cholesterol gallstones is the supersaturation of bile with cholesterol. The bile stasis in the gallbladder may also play a role in the formation of cholesterol gallstones by supplying the proper condition to nucleation of cholesterol crystal. Author evaluated gallbladder empting in response to fat meal by ultrasonography in 12 patients with gallstones and normal control group of 12 healthy subjects. Of the 12 patients with gallstones, six had radiolucent stones and the rest of them had radioopaque stones. Additionally, author evaluated gallbladder contraction in both cholesterol gallstones and pigment gallstones. The gallbladder was significantly contracted in control group by the fat meal but not by water. The contraction of gallbladder by fat meal with gallstone patients was significantly decreased compared with those in control group. The time of maximum contraction was 30 minutes in patients with gallstones. At 30 minutes, the gallbladder contraction was more significantly decreased in patients with radiolucent stones than in those with radioopaque stones. In conclusion, the more significant decrease of gallbladder contraction in patients with radiolucent stones may be interpretated as the possible factor of pathologenesis for the formation of the cholesterol stone.

This is a cross-sectional study designed to analyze the correlation between the structural and social variables and the pattern of contraction and deletion of the copula verb in the speech of African American Vernacular English (AAVE) speakers in Athens in Georgia, USA using a questionnaire. The results show that the frequency of copula contraction is higher than that of deletion in all factor groups including the age of the speakers where this study found that younger speakers tend to have higher frequency of contraction and deletion of the copula than older speakers. This study analyzes this as a function of the fact that younger speakers of AAVE are conscious of the linguistic and social differences between AAVE speakers and speakers of Standard American English (SAE) and they consciously make choices regarding which norm to use at which contexts to satisfy their communicative and socio-cultural needs. This sort of conscious social behavior is not likely to disappear with age rather it might increase as a correlate of the perceived physical, socio-cultural and psychological distance between AAVE speakers and speakers of other varieties. This study shows that such perceived linguistic, socio-cultural and psychological distance has negative effects on pedagogy and I proffer the remedy.
