Objectives : The aim of this study was to report the improvements in pain that a woman experienced after receiving Korean medicine treatments for the pain associated with core decompression surgery due to avascular necrosis (AVN) of both femur heads. Methods : The patient was diagnosed as having AVN in both femur heads and underwent core decompression surgery. After operation, she had pain on her right inguinal region and her range of motion (ROM) was restricted. She was treated with Korean medicine including, herbal medicine, acupuncture, Chuna Manual Therapy and bee venom acupuncture (BV). This study was measured by using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and the ROM scale. Results : After conservative treatment, the patient's pain was reduced and ROM was increased. Daily living quality had improved. Conclusions : In this case, Korean conservative medicine therapy with Chuna Manual Therapy had a positive effect on the symptoms after core decompression surgery due to avascular necrosis of the femur head.

Avascular necrosis (AVN) of the humeral head is a rare, yet detrimental complication. Left untreated, humeral head AVN frequently progresses to subchondral fracturing and articular collapse. Cases of late-stage humeral head AVN commonly require invasive procedures including humeral head resurfacing, hemiarthroplasty, and total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) to improve clinical outcomes. However, in cases of early-stage AVN, core decompression of the humeral head is a viable and efficacious short-term treatment option for patients with pre-collapse AVN of the humeral head to improve clinical outcomes and prevent disease progression. Several techniques have been described, however, a percutaneous, arthroscopic-assisted technique may allow for accurate staging and concomitant treatment of intraarticular pathology during surgery, although further long-term clinical studies are necessary to assess its overall outcomes compared with standard techniques. Biologic adjunctive treatments, including synthetic bone grafting, autologous mesenchymal stem cell/bone marrow grafts, and bone allografts are viable options for reducing the progression of AVN to further collapse in the short term, although long-term follow-up with sufficient study power is lacking in current clinical studies. Further long-term outcome studies are required to determine the longevity of core decompression as a conservative measure for early-stage AVN of the humeral head.

목적: 상완 골두 골괴사증에서의 관절경하 핵심 갑압술을 소개하고자 한다. 수술 술기: 후방 및 전방 삽입구를 이용하여 진단적 관절경을 시행하고 견봉 외측 연의 전방 1/3 부위의 3 cm 하방에 2cm의 천공술을 위한 삽입구를 만든 후, 유도핀 삽입시 주위 연부 조직 손상을 막기 위해 짧게 만든 회색 도관를 위치시킨다. C-형 투시 장치를 견관절의 전후방에 정확히 위치시키고, 관절경을 통해 상완 골두의 관절면을 관찰하면서 3~4개의 유도핀을 괴사 부위에 삽입한 후 7.0 mm 확공기를 이용하여 천공술을 시행한다. 결론: 본 술기는 기존의 삼각흉근 도달법을 이용한 개방적 핵심 감압술에 비해 합병증을 감소시킬 수 있으며, 견관절내 병변의 진단 및 치료를 동시에 할 수 있을 뿐 아니라 술후 통증 및 재활에 유리하여 초기 상완 골두 골괴사증의 치료로 활용할 수 있는 효과적인 술식으로 생각된다.

This paper describes the design and implementation results of JPEG core, based on the ITU-T Recommendation T.81. We designed the RTL circuit in Verilog HDL, making reference to the JPEG program from the Independent JPEG Group. The circuit has been simulated with Verilog-XL, synthesized with Design Compiler and verified using Altera FPGA. Since the synthesized circuit includes a small number of gates, it is expected to be used as a core module in image processing SOC.

JPEG은 가장 널리 사용되는 표준 이미지 압축기술이다. 본 논문에서는 이미지 압축 알고리즘을 소개하고 압축 및 압축 해제의 각 단계를 서술하고자 한다. 이미지 압축은 디지털 이미지를 데이터 압축을 적용하는 과정이다. 이산여현변환은 시간 도메인에서 주파수 도메인으로 변환하는 기술이다. 먼저, 이미지는 8 by 8 픽셀 블록으로 분할하게 된다. 둘째, 위에서 아래로 왼쪽에서 오른쪽으로 진행하면서 DCT가 각각의 블록에 적용하게 된다. 셋째, 각 블록은 양자화를 통해 압축을 진행한다. 넷째, 이미지를 구성하는 압축된 블록의 배열은 크게 줄어든 공간에 저장된다. 끝으로, 원하는 경우 이미지는 역 이산여현변환 (IDCT)을 사용하는 프로세스인 압축 해제를 통해 재구성하게 된다.

DCT(Discrete Cosine Transform)/ IDCT(Inverse DCT)는 여러 DSP 분야와 영 강압축 시스템에서 널리 사용되는 부호화 방식으로서 압축 및 복원 시스템에서 가장 많은 처리시간을 요하는 부분이다. 그러므로 이 부분의 성능을 향상시킴으로써 전체 영상 압축시스템의 성능을 향상시킬수 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 DCT/IDCT연산을 효율적으로 수행하기 위하여 모듈생성기법을 이용하여 하드웨어로 구성하였다. 설계한 DCT/IDCT코어 프로세서는 부분합과 분산연산을 이용하여 비교적 적은 면적을 차지하며, 약간의 면적을 증가시킴으로써 DCT와 IDCT연산을 모두 수행한다. 또한 파이프라인 구조를 사용하여 고속으로 DCT/IDCT연산을 수행할 수 있으며, 적은 수의 반올림(rounding)단계를 거치므로 높은 정밀도로 연산을 수행한다. 그리고 모듈생성기법을 사용하여, 설계공정에 독립적이고 입력비트나 정밀도 둥을 간단한 매개변수의 조정으로 변환시킬 수 있도록 설계하였다. 또한 구현한 코어프로세서는 CCITT 권장안 H.261에 부합하는 정밀도로 연산을 수행한다.

Operative procedures such as core drilling with and without fibular bone grafting have been recognized as the treatment methods for osteonecrosis of femoral head(ONFH) by delaying or preventing the collapse of the femoral head. In addition, core drilling with cementation using polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) has been proposed recently as another surgical method. However, no definite treatment modality has been found yet while operative procedures remain controversial to many clinicians In this study, a finite element method(FEM) was employed to analyze and compare various surgical procedures of ONFH to provide a biomechanical insight. This study was based upon biomechanical findings which suggest stress concentration within the femoral head may facilitate the progression of the necrosis and eventual collapse. For this purpose, five anatomically relevant hip models were constructed in three dimensions : they were (1) intact(Type I), (2) necrotic(Type II), (3) core drilled only(Type III), (4) core drilled with fibular bone graft(Type IV), and (5) core drilled with cementation(Type V). Physiologically relevant loading were simulated. Resulting stresses were calculated. Our results showed that the volumetric percentage subjected to high stress in the necrotic cancellous region was greatest in the core drilled only model(Type III), followed by the necrotic(Type II), the bone graft (Type IV), and the cemented(Type V) models. Von Mises stresses at the tip of the graft(Type IV) was found to be twice more than those of cemented core(Type V) indicating the likelihood of the implant failure. In addition, stresses within the cemented core(Type V) were more evenly distributed and relatively lower than within the fibular bone graft(Type IV). In conclusion, our biomechanical analyses have demonstrated that the bone graft method(Type IV) and the cementation method(Type V) are both superior to the core decompression method(Type III) by reducing the high stress regions within the necrotic cancellous bone. Also it was found that the core region filled with PMMA(Type V) provides far smoother transfer of physiological load without causing the concentration of malignant stresses which may lead to the failure than with the fibular bone graft(Type IV). Therefore, considering the above results along with the degree of difficulties and risk of infection involved with preparation of the fibular bone graft, the cementation method appears to be a promising surgical treatment for the early stage of osteonecrosis of the femoral head.

There are many work-related injuries and diseases of fisheries in Korea. Fishermen have exposed to harmful environment, such as natural disasters, ultraviolet, noise, vibration, organic solvents, ergonomic risk factors, loss of fresh water and food, and psychologic stress. They have suffered from numerous work-related health problems, including musculoskeletal disorders, cardiovascular diseases, infectious diseases, pyschological diseases, decompression sickness, and so on. Sea accidents can cause deaths of fishermen and if sea pollution is occurred, fishermen have a great economic damage. However, the concern of these injuries and diseases has been little because they are small in number and have decreased. Fisheries are important core industries, so the problems of fisheries have to be solved by a government. But work-related injuries and diseases are not investigated properly and accurate diagnoses are not made due to loss of concern. We hope that this article will be a cornerstone to solving the work-related problems of fisheries.

This paper presents a new SOC test compression scheme in Embedded Deterministic Test (EDT) compression environment. Compressed test data is brought over the TAM from the tester to the cores in SOC and decompressed in the cores. The proposed scheme allows cores tested at the same time to share some test channels. By sharing free variables in these channels across test cubes of different cores decompressed at the same time, high encoding efficiency is achieved. Moreover, no excess control data is required in this scheme. The ability to reuse excess free variables eliminates the need for high precision in matching the number of test channels with the number of care bits for every core. Experimental results obtained for some SOC designs illustrate effectiveness of the proposed test application scheme.
