  • In this first double-blind-placebo-controlled investigation of the Aeon Patch, electrocardiographic data were acquired from 50 well-hydrated volunteers [21 females and 29 males, age: 19-79, weight: 117-334 lbs, height: 5'-6',3"], under 3 different conditions for a total duration of 15 min (5 min/condition). Condition1: Control (C) - while wearing no Patch, Condition 2: Placebo (P) or Active (A) - after wearing either the Placebo or the Aeon Patch for 20 min, and Condition 3: Active (A) or Placebo (P) - after wearing either the Aeon or the Placebo Patch for 20 min. There was a washout period of 15 min between Conditions 2 and 3. All involved in the investigation were blind to the (A) and (P) Patches as they looked exactly the same and were assigned in a random fashion. The hypothesis to be tested was: Wearing the Aeon Patch for 20 min reduces stress. Data were first quality assured and those subjects who showed a parasympathetic response after wearing the Patch within 20 min were identified as early responders. Thirty subjects (60%) achieved a relaxed state after wearing the Aeon Patch as early as 20 min. Statistical analysis (one-sample inference) was used to compare the spectral features of the responders. The normalized LF/HF decreased significantly ($24%{\pm}9%$ after 20 min) in condition (A) compared to condition (P) with a p-value < 0.047 (n = 30) in responders. Therefore, the hypothesis that wearing the Aeon Patch for 20 min reduces stress was accepted as true.

  • The global RNA transcription profiles of Bacillus lentimorbus WJ5 under an in vitro co-culture with Colletotrichum gloeosporioides were analyzed in order to study the antagonistic bacteria-fungi interactions. Using a filter membrane system, B. lentimorhus WJ5 was exposed to the spores of C. gloeosporioides at the late exponential stage. The transcription profiles of the B. lentimorhus WJ5, both with and without a challenge from C. gloeosporioides, were analyzed using custom DNA chips containing 2,000 genome fragments. A total of 337 genes were expressed, with 87 and 47 up- and down-regulated, respectively. Of these, 12 genes, which were involved in central carbon metabolisms, and 7 from minor catabolism were relatively highly up-regulated (> 10 fold) and down-regulated (< 0.2 fold), respectively. Nine genes, which were thought to be related to the antifungal activity, were also up-regulated, but their levels were not so high (2.0 - 9.7 folds). From the results, during the early stage of the co-culture of B. lentimorbus WJ5 and C. gloeosporioides, nutrient competition seemed to occur; therefore, the genes from central carbon metabolisms could be up-regulated, while those from minor catabolism could be down-regulated.

  • Seedling establishment of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] is a critical factor in production system and cultural practices. The objective of this study was to identify the components of soybean seedling developments encompassing planting dates and cultivars that respond to emergence, early growth stage and dry matter accumulation. Three soybean cultivars, Hwangkeumkong, Shinpaldalkong 2, and Pungsannamulkong, were planted at Baegsan silty loam soil. Planting date was May 13, June 3, and June 24 in 2001. Sprinkler irrigation was accompanied with 30mm after seeding for three planting dates. Soybean seedlings were sampled at the growth stages from VE to V5. Days to emergence of soybean seedlings were taken 8 at May 13 and 5 at June 24 plantings. Emergence percentage was over 90 at three planting dates. May 13 planting took 33 days and June 24 planting was 25 days for reaching V5 growth stage. Cotyledon number was decreased after V2. Significant cultivar difference was found in cotyledon dry weight until V2 which differed in seed dry weights at the planting times. Leaf and total dry weights of soybean seedlings were not differed from V1 to V3 among planting dates and cultivars. Leaf water contents were generally ranged 78 to 85%. Branch was appeared from V4. Leaf/stem ratio among cultivars was similar at five growth stages and gradually increased from 2.1 at V1 to 2.8 at V5. The results based on this experiment indicated that seedling establishment of soybean was continued from VE to V3 growth stages affecting mainly by planting date and soil moisture.

  • Objective: Postoperative dynamic cryo-compression (DC) therapy has been proposed as a method of reducing pain and the inflammatory response in the early postoperative period after orthopedic joint reconstruction surgery. Our aim was to analyze the analgesic efficacy of DC therapy after adult lumbar spinal surgery. Methods: DC was applied for 30 minutes every 6 hours after surgery. Pain was measured by a visual analogue scale (VAS) in the preoperative period, immediately after surgery, and every 6 hours postoperatively for the first 72 hours of the hospital stay. Patients' pain medication requirements were monitored using the patient-controlled analgesia system and patient charts. Twenty patients who received DC therapy were compared to 20 historical controls who were matched for demographic and surgical variables. Results: In the postanesthesia care unit, the mean VAS back pain score was $5.87{\pm}0.9$ in the DC group and $6.95{\pm}1.0$ (p=0.001) in the control group. The corresponding mean VAS scores for the DC vs. control groups were $3.8{\pm}1.1$ vs. $5.4{\pm}0.7$ (p < 0.001) at 6 hours postoperatively, and $2.7{\pm}0.7$ vs. $6.25{\pm}0.9$ (p<0.001) at discharge, respectively. The cumulative mean analgesic consumption of paracetamol, tenoxicam, and tramadol in the DC group vs. control group was $3,733.3{\pm}562.7mg$ vs. $4,633.3{\pm}693.5mg$ (p<0.005), $53.3{\pm}19.5mg$ vs. $85.3{\pm}33.4mg$ (p<0.005), and $63.3{\pm}83.4mg$ vs. $393.3{\pm}79.9mg$ (p<0.0001), respectively. Conclusion: The results of this study demonstrated a positive association between the use of DC therapy and accelerated improvement in patients during early rehabilitation after adult spine surgery compared to patients who were treated with painkillers only.

  • Green stem disorder (GSD) of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) is characterized by delayed senescence of stems with normal pod ripening and seed maturation (Hobbs, 2006). GSD complicates harvesting of soybeans by significantly increasing the difficulty in cutting the affected plants. There is also the potential for moisture in the stems to be scattered on the seed, reducing the grade and storability of the seed. Not only the cause of GSD is yet unknown, but also GSD cannot be evaluated until maturity, therefore the method to evaluate GSD in early growth stage with high sensitivity is necessary. In previous studies, it has been reported that vegetative storage protein (VSP) accumulates and the syndrome of GSD appears in soybean after depod treatment (Fischer, 1999). Soybean VSP is a storage protein which is abundant in young sink leaves and degraded during seed fill (Wittenbach, 1982). Hence, we have established a system to quantify VSP of high sensitivity by using standard protein made by genetically transformed E. coli and specific antibody against VSP, and studied the relationship between VSP and GSD, by depod experiment and drought/excess wet experiments. The result of depod experiment with the cultivar 'Yukihomare' was the same with the previous studies, VSP accumulated much more than control and the syndrome of GSD appeared in soybean in depod treatment. Drought and excess wet had different impact on GSD. Excess wet caused GSD of the cultivar 'Tachinagaha (GSD susceptible)', while drought caused a little syndrome of GSD in the cultivar 'Touhoku 129 (GSD resistant)'. The accumulation of VSP differed between the two cultivars over time. In conclusion, the accumulation of VSP came along with the emergence of GSD. Different cultivars showed different response to drought and excess wet. In the future, it is expected that the dynamics of VSP will be elucidated in detail, leading to the development of early diagnosis technology for green stem disorder and the elucidation of mechanism of soybean GSD.

  • 베체트병은 전신적 혈관염으로 여러 장기에 걸쳐 나타날 수 있으며, 현재로선 확진을 위한 검사 방법이 없으므로 병의 진단은 임상적 증상에 기초하여 내려진다. 구강 및 외음부의 재발성 궤양, 피부 병소, 안구 병소, 및 이상초과민검사(pathergy test)에 대한 반응을 기초로 진단을 내리며, 이 외에도 위장관과 중추신경계에 증상이 나타날 수 있다. 이 중 재발성 구강 궤양은 대부분의 베체트병 환자에서 나타나며, 많은 경우 베체트병의 첫번째 임상 증상으로 발현되기 때문에 치과 영역은 베체트병의 조기 진단에 있어서 중요한 위치에 있다. 본 증례에서 6세 여환은 반복되어 나타나는 재발성 구강 궤양으로 인한 동통 및 섭식 장애를 주소로 본원 소아치과에 내원하였다. 문진 및 병력 채취, 그리고 임상 검사를 통해 치과 영역에서 베체트병을 조기 진단할 수 있었고, 추후 환자는 소아과, 피부과, 소화기내과, 안과와의 협의 진료 하에 베체트병으로 확진되었다. 치과에선 환자의 동통을 완화시키고 섭식을 돕기 위해 도포마취제를 처방하였으며, 추후 베체트병의 확진 하에 그에 따른 적절한 의과적 치료를 시행할 수 있었기에 보고하는 바이다.

  • 토크 전달시스템은 다수의 기어와 커플링이 유연하게 구성되어 있으므로 모터의 속도가 갑자기 변할 때 비틀림 진동이 발생한다. 모터의 정확한 응답 특성을 얻기 위해서는 반드시 이 진동은 억제되어야 한다. 따라서 진동억제는 모터제어에 있어서 매우 중요하다. 특히 2관성 시스템의 진동억제를 위해 다양한 제어방법들이 소개되었다. 토크의 비틀림 현상으로 인해 발생하는 진동을 억제하기 위해 토크의 비틀림 성분을 궤환시키고 일반적인 필터로 구성된 외란 관측기 필터를 사용하는 방법이 소개되었다. 또한 이를 계수도법(CDM)을 이용 적절한 P 제어기와 필터의 계수값을 설계하여 진동을 억제하는 방법이다. 그러나 계수도법을 이용하여 설계된 제어기 파라미터는 외란 인가시 적응성이 떨어짐을 알 수 있다. 반면 PID 제어기는 설계가 간단하나 초기에 과도한 오버슈트를 및 진동 문제를 유발한다. 이러한 문제점들을 해결하기 위하여 최근에는 2자유도 파라미터 a로 비례이득을 가변함으로써 외란에는 영향을 받지 않고 목표치 추종 성능을 개선할 수 있는 단순하고 실용적인 2자유도 PID 제어기가 소개되었다. 그러나 이 방법 역시 원하는 P값을 얻기 위해 u를 가변 하여야 하는 단점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이러한 단점들을 극복하기 위해 퍼지 알고리즘을 사용 파라미터 $\alpha$를 자동 조정하는 제어기를 설계하였다. 사용된 제어기의 성능을 입증하기 위하여 기존의 제어방법과 시뮬레이션을 통해 비교, 평가한다.

  • During the ancient times, there was no separative judicial system and administrative , legislative and judiciary functions were ultimately concentrated in the all-powerful monarch. And the three states developed state organization , adopting hieratical structures and placing at the pinnacle . State Codes were promulgated to initiate a legal system to rule the people, these codes instituted under influence of China codes. The people tradition sees crime control as the preservation of the authority of hereditary rulers. In the period of the Koryeo dynasty, government accepted a serious of detailed penal code from Tang dynasty . Legal response to crime stressed preservation of the dynasty rather than making citizen behave according to certain rules. In the period of Early Joseon , the compilation of Grand Code for state administration was initiated, the Kyeongkuk Taejeon ,became comer stone of the dynastic administration and provided the monarchial system with a sort of constitutional law in written form. This national code was in portant means of criminal policy at that time, Late Joseon , the impact of Western culture entering through China gave further impetus to pragmatic studies which called for socio-economic reforms and readjustment. Approach to criminal justice policy emphasized more equitable operation of the criminal justice system ,rehabilitation and crime control. Korea-Japanese Treaty concluded on 22 August ,1910 and proclaim a week later ,Japan gave the coup de grace to the Korea Empire and changed the office of the Resident - General into the Government - General . Thus korean criminal policy were lost during a dark ages ,which lasted for 36 years after fall of Joseon Dynasty (the colnial period,1910${\sim}$1945). After 1945 Korea's liberation from Japanese colonial rule, the occupation of devided Korea by the United States and Soviet Union frustrated the efforts of Koreans to establish an independent government, and the transplantation of two conflicting political ideologies to south and the north of the 38th parallel further intensified the national split. U.S. military government office occupied the south of the 38 the parallel and placed emphasis on democracy of criminal policy. ln 1948, the U.S. military government handed over to the ROK government its administrative authority.

  • Objective : Allergic disease, a very common chronic illness that affects all ages of patients, has been well characterized as an IgE-dependent immunologic response. Recently, interest has grown about the late inflammatory reaction as well as the early one characterized by IgE and mast cells in allergic disease. The purpose of this study was to find the anti-inflammatory effect of Taeeumjowui-tang (Taiyintiaowei-tang) in allergic reaction. Methods : The experiment was performed using Raw 264.7 cells pretreated with Taeeumjowui-tang contents extracts. The results were measured for different concentrations of Taeeumjowui-tang extracts (100, 200, $300{\mu}g$/ml): the toxicity and proliferation of cells by MTT analysis, LPS-induced NO production using Griess reagent and IL-6/ TNF-${\alpha}$ production, which is a significant criteria for diagnosing allergic reaction. Results : No toxicity of Taeeumjowui-tang (100, 200, $300{\mu}g$/ml) on Raw 264.7 cells was found after 24 hours incubation. LPS-induced NO production was reduced after treatment with Taeeumjowui-tang (100, 200, $300{\mu}g$/ml)(P<0.001). IL-6 decreased only at $100{\mu}g$/ml(P<0.05). TNF-${\alpha}$ production decreased only at $300{\mu}g$/ml, but still statistically insignificant. There was no relationship between any components of Taeeumjowui-tang alone and inhibition of NO production. Conclusions : These data suggest that Taeeumjowui-tang has anti-inflammatory effects in allergic reaction.

  • 인터넷 웜은 분산 서비스 거부 공격 등을 통해 트래픽 장애를 유발하므로 인터넷 인프라를 사용 불능으로 만들 수 있고, 침입 기능을 갖고 있어 중요 서버를 장악하여 개인의 정보를 유출시키는 등 치명적인 피해를 일으키고 있다. 그러나 이러한 인터넷 웜을 탐지하여 대응하는 기존의 기법은 웜의 지역화된 특징만을 이용하거나 이미 알려진 웜에만 대응 가능한 단점을 지니고 있다. 본 논문에서는 알려지지 않은 웜을 상대적으로 빠른 시점에 탐지하기 위해 웜의 거시적 행위 특성을 추출하여 탐지하는 기법을 제안 한다. 이를 위해 원의 거시적인 행위를 논리적으로 정의하고, IP 패킷 환경에서 호스트간 직접적으로 전파 되는 웜을 탐지하는 기법을 제시하며, 이 기법이 실제 적용 되었을 때 웜 확신의 억제 효과를 시뮬레이션을 통해 보인다. IP 패킷 환경은 응답 시간에 대해 민감하므로 제안된 기법이 구현되었을 때 요구하는 시간을 측정하여 제시하고, 이를 통해 상대적으로 큰 오버헤드 없이 제안된 기법이 구현될 수 있음을 보인다.
