The present study was performed to evaluate the relationship between the serotype or the genotype of Actnobacillus actinomycetemcomitans (A. a.) and the severity of periodontal disease. Total 64 A. a. clinical isolates were sampled from 46 sites of 20 subjects classified into the group I (1 periodontally healthy subject, 2 gingivitis patients, 5 ealry adult periodontitis patients), group II (3 moderatelly adult periodontitis patients) and group III (1 advanced adult periodontitis patient, 8 RPP patients). Southern bolt hybridization (fingerprinting) patterns of the five reference strains, A. a. strain ATCC 29523 (serotype a), ATCC 29522 (Serotype b), ATCC 43719 (serotype c), IDH 781 (serotype d) and IDH 1705 (serotype e), were used as the five basic genotypic patterns (A, B, C, D, E). NT type was designated as one which did dnot represent any of those five basic types. The serotypes were determined by ELISA technique with the serum samples from pre-immunized rabbit. Based on subject-based analysis, it was noted that genotypes A and C, NT, and B, D, E were significantly related to the disease groups I, II, and III, respectively. It was also noted that both the serotypes a and c were significantly related to the disease group I and II, while serotypes were significantly related bm), and serotypes b and nd were frequently found in sites with severe attachment loss (LA>6mm). The results indicated that the significant relationship can be delineated beteen the genotypes and the serotypes of Acinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans and the periodontal disease severity. The results also indicated that genotyping can provide more detailed information on its relationship with the disease severity based on both the patient-based and the site-based analyses.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the eyesight and life habits of college students in an attempt to provide some information on the protection of their eyesight. Methods: The subjects in this study were 311 students in the department of dental technology at a college of health, on whom a survey was conducted. A crosstabulation analysis was carried out to show the joint distribution of general characteristics and several variables involving the use of glasses or contact lenses and life habits. Results: 77.5% of the students currently wore glasses due to weak sight. 9.3% took an eye test on a regular basis, and 31.2% did that every six months. As for the length of the length of daily mean reading time, 55.3% spent one hour or less reading books. The most common distance between eyes and books during their reading(44.7%) was 21 to 25. Concerning a reading posture, the biggest group(54.3%) lay down or lay on their face while they read books. 45.0 % spent less than an hour watching TV per day on average, and 27.0% were on the computer for 30 minutes to less than an hour per day on average. The greatest group(63.0%) made use of basic indoor lighting when they were on the computer at night, and 62.1% saw eye doctors to take an eye test. In relation to how to protect eyesight, the biggest group(50.5%) spent less time being on the computer. Conclusion: As the eyesight of college students fails due to reading, TV, computer, and improper ways and posture of doing or using those things, every college definitely should provide education on eye health as one of general education courses.

This study attempts to identify the structure of class conflict in Korea and to suggest an alternative framework for a empathetic society. The objective and subjective level of satisfaction with life and class consciousness are in direct proportion, and status consistency signifies polarization. Distorted distribution structures and cultural values make income disparity and property disputes widen, which in turn lead to educational divides and status fixations, refracting or blocking the possibility of social mobility. By overcoming the COVID-19 crisis, it is not appropriate to go back to the past but to correct wrong consciousness and practices in the past, and the consistency between the state and members of society must be re-established. Through the process of innovation at the economic, global, and digital level, a major transformation is required in the new normal era, which prioritizes social development for human values. The conflict resolution depends on the solidarity of the community as a social foundation, since an empathetic society needs the trust and communication of the members of the society.

The International Telecommunications Union(: ITU) Radio Regulations(: RR) and in which is defined as the frequency of electromagnetic waves below 3000GHz spread in space without artificial guidance, our country also follows the international definition. As radio waves are electromagnetic waves spreading in space without artificial induction means having a frequency within the range set by the ITU. Frequency distribution for dual-work is to inde 300GHz, among the divided frequency is our daily or less than 90% of the frequency band is in contact saenghwalyong 3GHz. Propagation, but can occur indefinitely without depleting that anyone can create only gatchumyeon transmission equipment, if the radio frequency to use at the same time and space, the soul is the interference occurs is not available radio resources. Due to the physical finiteness used in our country for the first time on such a propagation laws enacted in 1961 and to the state radio resource management, and rules to be used for propagation only if granted the rights.

Social Network Services are widely used by mass population and it is used as an important communications tool because it allows distribution of diverse and abundant amount of information. This thesis proposes to add a new valuable service function in social network for mobile-based civil complaint management. Therefore, we will develop a social network application for civil affair services that allows immediate civil compliant management while being able to share the contents related to civil affairs with other people. As a result of the experiment, the effect and efficiency of the method proposed in this thesis for social network-based civil affair services was proven. Hence, the social network for mobile-based civil affair services always provides new and improved service components. Moreover, discussing civil complaints in a social network point of view, we can expect high ripple effect and encourage more participation of public users dealing with civil affairs.

Objectives : Much is still unknown about the neurophysiological mechanisms or dynamics of the sleep onset process. Detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA) is a new tool for the analysis of electroencephalography (EEG) that may give us additional information about electrophysiological changes. The purpose of this study is to analyze long-range correlations of electroencephalographic signals by DFA and their changes in the sleep onset process. Methods : Thirty channel EEG was recorded in 61 healthy subjects (male:female=34:27, age=$27.2{\pm}3.0$ years). The scaling exponents, alpha, were calculated by DFA and compared between four kinds of 30s sleep-wakefulness states such as wakefulness, transition period, early sleep, and late sleep (stage 1). These four states were selected by the distribution of alpha and theta waves in O1 and O2 electrodes. Results : The scaling exponents, alpha, were significantly different in the four states during sleep onset periods, and also varied with the thirty leads. The interaction between the sleep states and the leads was significant. The means (${\pm}$ standard deviation) of alphas for the states were 0.94 (${\pm}0.12$), 0.98 (${\pm}0.12$), 1.10 (${\pm}0.10$), 1.07 (${\pm}0.07$) in the wakefulness, transitional period, early sleep and late sleep state respectively. The mean alpha of anterior fifteen leads was greater than that of posterior fifteen leads, and the two regions showed the different pattern of changes of the alpha during the sleep onset periods. Conclusions : The characteristic findings in the sleep onset period were the increasing pattern of scaling exponent of DFA, and the pattern was slightly but significantly different between fronto-temporal and parieto-occipital regions. It suggests that the long-range correlations of EEG have a tendency of increasing from wakefulness to early sleep, but anterior and posterior brain regions have different dynamical process. DFA, one of the nonlinear analytical methods for time series, may be a useful tool for the investigation of the sleep onset period.

The purpose of this study was to inves-tigate the economic performance of the textile industry for the Korean traditional clothes. The content of this paper had two pars; The first part was for the macroeconomic aspects such as location production employments and the produc-tion facilities of the textile industries. The second part was for the microeconomic aspects such as business type branding method fabric type R&D efforts sourc-ing and the distributional channel The major results were as follows: 1.) Most textile firms for the korean traditional clothes were located in Gongju for man-made fibers and in Jinju for silk fabrics. 2) The size of the textile industry in terms of the number of business produc-tion amount the number of employee de-creased during 1994 and 1995 due to the decreasing demand. 3) Over the half of the textile firms produced raw fabric products while only 20% of them were involved in additional dyeing and /or printing finish which re-sulted in low value added production 4) The R&D effort of the textile indus-try for the Korean traditional clothes was very low due to the market uncertainty lack of technological knowledge and most of all small size of the firms 5) Most raw materials for the textile in -dustry were imported with high(25%) tariff rates resulting in price increase and thus low competitiveness in the market. 6) The textile producers sole about the 70% of their products to the wholesalers while selling the rest to the retailers di-rectly. This showed the dual structure of the distribution channel in the textile products. These results suggested some implica-tions for the firms the policy makers and the researchers. The firms should develop new and improved products to increase and create consumer demand by intensive R&D efforts. The government policy ma-kers should give financial supports the firms with R&D investment and legal help such as lowing tariff rate for the raw ma-terials. The researchers from the academy could help the textile industry with the advanced technological knowledge and up-date information for the consumer fashion demand.

With the rapid increase in the number of patients with cardiopulmonary diseases, more cardiopulmonary circulatory assist devices are also needed. These devices can be employed when heart and/or lung function poorly. Due to the critical role they take, these devices have to be designed optimally from both mechanical and biomechanical aspects. This paper presents the CFD results of a baseline model of a centrifugal blood pump for the ECMO condition. The details of flow characteristics of the baseline model together with the performance curves and the modified index of hemolysis(MIH) are investigated. Then, the geometry of baseline impeller and the volute are modified in order to improve the biomechanical performance and reduce the MIH value. The numerical simulations of two cases represent that when impeller radius and prime volume decrease the MIH value also decreases. In addition, the modified geometry shows more uniform pressure distribution inside the volute. The findings provide valuable information for further modification and improvement of centrifugal blood pumps from both mechanical and biomechanical aspects.

This study aims at dedicating to relevant technology fields by suggesting design methods of structures and estimating their safety in relation to substructure for offshore wind power requiring high safety to various environment conditions. Especially, with respect to 5MW Offshore Wind Power System, this study will provide information about major wind directions and duration in combination with the developing wave climate at the test field. Therefore, connections between wind fields and approaching wave trains will be estimated and their intensity, direction and time shift will be pointed out. Furthermore, the local pressure distribution of breaking waves will be investigated by physical and numerical modeling. The currently applied structural and fatigue assessment of support structures for offshore wind energy converters is based on common design rules. Normally, constructions in structural engineering are treated as limited, single structures. This means that varying aspects of manufacturing are considered by high safety factors.
