  • A number of experimental evidences suggest that the rnun ventrolateral medulla(RVLM) is the final common pathway in the regulation of arterial blood pressure. A Voup of neurons in the RVLM, called the cardiovascular neurons (UN), show spontaneous activity temporally synchronized with the periodic cardiac cycle. These neurons affect the sympathetic nerve discharge(SND), thus are believed to be responsible for blood pressure control. The present experiment identified 98 UVNs in 42 cats based on the temporal relationships between each neuron's activity with both the cardiac cycle and SWD. In 20 UWL changes of spontaneous firing rate(FR) during the somatosympathetic reflex(SSR) were studied Five different firing patterns were observed during the pressor and depressor responses of SSR, implying that they form an interconnected neuronal circuit interacting with one another to generate efferent signals for blood pressure regulation. In the following companion paper, the firing patterns of CVN are analyzed to develop a minimal neuronal circuit model explaining the present experimental outcome.

  • In this paper, the maximum scour depths at piers located in the Bo Cheong Stream, which is a tributary in the Geum River System, were calculated and compared using 24 local pier scour equations. The equations were classified as six groups by non-dimensional types of equations. The geometric data in the stream bed and pier data at San Seong, Yi Pyung and San Gye, which are IHP data collection stations, were utilized for applying the scour equations. The geometric data in the stream bed were obtained by analyzing the bed material sampled in three stations which are in the left side, middle and right side for stream direction. The maximum flow velocities at maximum flow depths which were measured from 1982 to 1991, were used as the hydraulic flow data. The pier data for predicting pier scour depths were measured in the fields. The maximum pier scour depths calculated using the equations were compared with the held scour depths measured in the streams or rivers in the world. Arunachalam, Shen-Karaki III, Jain-Fischer equations are selected as the proper local scour equations for predicting the maximum local scour depths at piers in the Bo Cheong Stream. Inglis-Lacey and Shen-Karaki II equations are applicable in case of rapid flows conditions in which Froude number is over 0.3. Froehlich, Laursen I, Laursen II, Neill, Melville equations are applicable in the slow flow conditions in which Froude number is less than 0.3. Blench equation or Inglis-Poona equation varies rapidly by changing Froude numbers. Therefore the equations should not be used without careful considerations in selecting the applicable ranges. The maximum local scour depths calculated using Sarma-Krishnamurthy, Ahmad, Coleman, Varzeliotis, Larras, Bata, Chitale, Venkatadri, Basik-Basamily-Ergun, U.S.G.S., Shen I equations are usually less than the scour depths measured in the fields.

  • Experimental tracheal ligation (TL) has been shown to reverse the pulmonary hypoplasia associated with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) and to normalize gas exchange. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the TL would correct the surfactant deficiency present in the fetal rabbit model of CDH by using lamellar body count. Lamellar bodies are synthesized and secreted by the type II pneumocytes of fetal lung. The phospholipids present in these bodies constitute the major component of pulmonary surfactant. Twenty-one pregnant New Zealand rabbits underwent hysterotomy and fetal surgery on gestational day 24. Two fetuses of each pregnant rabbit were operated. In the fetus of one end of bicornuate uterus, left DH was created by excision of fetal diaphragm through open thoracotomy (DH Group). In the fetus of the other end of bicornuate uterus, left DH and TL were created (TL Group). The fetuses were delivered by Cesarean section on gestational day 31. Fourteen in control group, 12 in the DH group and 13 in TL group were born alive. En bloc excision of lungs, bronchi and trachea was done in all newborn rabbits. A five Fr catheter was inserted through trachea and repeated irrigations with 10 cc normal saline were done. The irrigated fluid was centrifuged at $280{\times}g$ for 5 minutes and the lamellar bodies were counted with the upper level fluid in platelet channel of electronic cell counter. The average lamellar body counts were $37.1{\pm}14.2{\times}10^3/{\mu}L$ in control group, $11.5{\pm}4.4 {\times}10^3/{\mu}L$ in DH group, and $6.5{\pm}0.9{\times}10^3/{\mu}L$ in TL group. Lamellar body count in DH group was lower than in control group and did not increase after TL. This study shows TL has no therapeutic effect on decreased surfactant level of CDH and the pregnant rabbit is appropriate for the animal model of CDH.

  • In dieser Arbeit wird versucht, einen weiteren theoretischen Rahmen $f\"{u}r$ die Farbensymbole(Rot, Gelb und Grun) in der deutschen, englischen und korearischen Sprache, vor allem in Idiomatik weiterzuentwickeln. Rot und Grun sind in diesen Sprachen reichlicher als Gelb vertreten. Die symbolische Bedeutung von Rot ist besonders ambivalent Es ist die Farbe der Gesundheit, aber auch die Farbe des Blutes, Krieges und Todes. Rot ist in den untersuchten Sprachen als 'sehr', 'gut', 'gesund' oder 'schlecht' belegt Rot zeigt aber einzelsprachliche Eigenschaften. Im Koreanischen ist Rot syrnbollisch mit 'Frau', im Englischen mit $'B\"{u}rokratismus'$ verbunden.. Gelb hat auch $widerspr\"{u}chliche$ Symbolbedeutung .Es ist die Farbe der $Fr\'{u}hlingsblumen$, der Sonne und des Lichtes. Aber Gelb kann die Farbe von 'Neid, Eifersucht' oder 'feige, schlecht' sein. Grun ist die wichtigste Farbe der Natur. So ist diese Farbe symbolisch mit 'gut', 'unreif, 'sehr, viel', 'Wachstum und Gedeihen' assozziert. Durch Vergleich und Analyse der Farbensymbole in diesen drei Sprachen und durch Resultat der Antwort auf Fragenbogen an denen 99 Deutschen, 100 Amerikaner und 101 Koreaner teilnahmen, zeichnen sich folgende Ergebnisse ab. Sprachsymbole von dieser Farbe hat auf die Farbenwahrnehmungen von diesen Leuten nicht direkte $Einfl\"{u}sse{\;} ausge\"{u}bt$. Rot assoziert in 89 Koreanern und 5 Amerikanern 'Leidenschaft': Gelb in 52 Amerikanem, 47 Deutschen und 38 Koreanern $'W\"{a}rme'$: Grun in 33 Amerikanern, '37 Deutschen und 11 Koreanern 'Frieden'. Im Englischen und Deutschen zeigt sich die Assoziation von Gelb mit 'Neid, Eifersucht', was mit kulturellen Vorstellungen $\"{u}bereinstimmt$. 38 Deutsche und 4 Amerikaner geben $f\"{u}r$ Gelb die Symbolbedeutung 'Neid' an. Hier bin ich mit sprachlichem Determinismus von Wharf-Hypothese einverstanden: Verschiroene Sprachgemeinschaften erfassen die Wirklichkeit in ganz verschiedener Weise. Sprachsymbol und Kul­tursymbol scheinen an die Farbenwahrnehmungen von untersuchten Leuten $anzukn\"{u}pfen$.

  • The photosynthetic activities in relation to oxygen evolution rates, quantum yield, CO2 uptake rates and room temperature chlorophyll fluorescence were investigated in cotyledons of cucumber seedlings exposed to low temperature (at 4$^{\circ}C$) for 24 h. Light-chilling caused more inhibition on light-saturated maximum oxygen evolution rates, quantum yield, and CO2 uptake rates than dark-chilling did in the cucumber plant. Light-chilling induced more marked increase in Fo and decrease in (Fv)m/Fm than dark-chilling did in the room temperature chlorophyll induction kinetics. The above results affected by chilling in the light are considered to be associated with the partial damage of the reaction center of PS II and the decreased photosynthetic activities. There occurred a large decrease in qQ with little change in qNP in the light-chilling plant. When light- and dark-chilled plants were recovered at room temperature for 24 h and their chlorophyll fluorescences were induced with light doubling technique, light-chilled plants showed more smaller magnitude and rate of fluorescence relaxation than dark-chilled plants. These suggest that light-chilling might cause some alterations in transthylakoid pH formation, and that photosynthetic apparatus of cucumber cotyledons is more susceptible to light-chilling. In the fast fluorescence induction kinetics, FR was decreased by 60% in the light-chilled plants with reference to $25^{\circ}C$ light-grown plants, while the dark-chilled plants showed a decreased rate of only 20% with reference to $25^{\circ}C$ dark-treated plants for 24 h, indicating that cucumber seedling is very sensitive to chilling stress. So, it is certain that chilling injury to the photosynthetic apparatus is strongly dependent on the presence of light in cucumber seedlings.

  • 선행 연구에서는 m-Aramid와 p-Aramid의 Ring 방적사/Core 방적사 조건에 따른 방적사 물성에 대해서 연구하였는데, Ring 방적사의 혼용율, 스핀들 속도에 따른 물성 변화, Core 방적사의 공정특성에 따른 방적성, 피복성에 대해 연구를 하였다. 그 결과 Ring 방적사의 경우 m-Aramid의 혼용율이 증가할수록 사 강도는 증가하는 경향을 확인할 수 있었고, 스핀들 속도가 증가함에 따라서 불균제도 및 사결점이 다소 증가하였다. Core 방적사의 경우 Core에 p-Aramid를 사용했을 때 방적성과 피복성은 양호 하였지만, 강한 p-Aramid에 의해 톱 롤러코트의 마모가 되는 경향을 볼 수 있었다. 본 연구에서는 Ring 방적사/Core 방적사에 대해 좀더 구체적인 제조공정조건에 의한 물성 변화를 알아보았고, 좀더 다양한 섬유소재를 적용해서 제조하였다. Ring 방적사의 경우 p-Aramid 혼용율에 따른 실험을 하였는데, m-Aramid에 대한 p-Aramid의 혼용율을 0%, 5%, 10%, 20% 로 하여 Ne30을 제조하였으며, Core 방적사는 Core를 p-Aramid 200D로 하고 Sheath를 Cotton으로 하여 Core 공급속도비 (1.06, 1.10, 1.14), 연계수(T/M, 3.8, 4.0, 4.2), Sheath/Core 혼섬율(70/30, 60/40, 50/50)에 따라 제조하였다. 추가로 Core 방적사는 Sheath에 Cotton 대신 FR-Rayon과 선염 Cotton을 사용하여 각각 Sheath/Core 혼섬율 70/30의 비율로 방적사를 제조하여 다양한 소재에 따른 방적사의 물성을 측정하였다. 제조된 시험 원사들의 측정 물성은 번수(Ne), 균제도(U%), 사결점(IPI), 강력(cN), 신도(%), 비강도(cN/Tex) 등이며, 편직을 통해 편성물의 외관을 확인하였다. Ring 방적사의 경우 p-Aramid의 혼용율이 증가할수록 강도는 완만하게 증가한 반면, 신도는 급격하게 감소하였다. Cotton Core 방적사의 경우는 공급속도비가 높아질수록 균제도가 높아지는 것을 볼수 있었고, Core 공급속도비가 높아질수록 외관상 피복도는 높아진 것을 볼 수 있었다. 이렇게 연구된 Aramid 소재를 이용한 방적사 제조 공정조건변화에 따른 물성 및 피복도 결과는 기존 방적업체에서 Aramid를 이용한 방적사 제조시에 공정조건을 확보하는데 도움이 될 것이라 생각되며, 방적사 시제품 생산시에 발생할 수 있는 시행착오를 줄임으로써 시제품 제조를 위한 생산비용의 Loss를 절감할 수 있을 것으로 예상된다.

  • Enzymatic hydrolysis of the substrate from Alnus hirsuta (Spach) Rupr (8-14years) was investigated using cellulase preparations of Trichoderma viride Pers. ex. Fr. SANK 16374 and conduced on the optimum reaction conditions of the cellulase on saccharification. The crude cellulase was produced by the submerged culture process and produced in the culture fluid was salted out quantitatively by the use of ammonium sulfate. The method of delignification from wood(Saw dust) was treated by the peracetic acid (PA) method. Reducing sugar was determined by the dinitrosalicylic acid (DNS) method. The results were summerized as follows; 1. The optimum pH of cellulase was 5.0 and the range of stability with respect to pH was generally from 4.0 to 6.0 2. The optimum temperature of cellulase was generally $40^{\circ}C$, but reducing sugar formation did not show significent differences at 5% levels in the reaction temperature from $40^{\circ}C$ to $50^{\circ}C$. 3. The redusing sugar were increased with increase of cellulase concentration. 4. The reducing sugar were decreased with increase of substrate concentration. 5. Fructose was a very good inhibitor of the enzyme from Trichoderma viride, but glucose inhibition was generally weak.

  • Mit dem Patientenrechtegesetz, das im $Fr{\ddot{u}}jahr$ 2013 in Kraft treten soll, $f{\ddot{u}}rt$ der Gesetzgeber eine jahrzehntelange Diskussion um die Rechte von Patientinnen und Patienten zu einem guten Ende. Demnach geht es darum, Transparenz ${\ddot{u}}ber$ die bereits heute bestehenden, umfangreichen Rechte der Patientinnen und Patienten herzustellen, die $tats{\ddot{a}}chliche$ Durchsetzung dieser Rechte zu verbessern, zugleich Patientinnen und Patienten im Sinne einer verbesserten Gesundheitsversorgung zu $sch{\ddot{u}}tzen$ und insbesondere im Fall eines Behandlungsfehlers $st{\ddot{a}}rker$ zu $unterst{\ddot{u}}tzen$. In Verfolgung dieser Zwecke $schl{\ddot{a}}gt$ die Bundesregierung ein Artikelgesetz vor, dessen wesentliche Teile das BGB und das Recht der sozialen Krankenversicherung betreffen. In das BGB soll ein neuer Abschnitt ${\ddot{u}}ber$ den "Behandlungsvertrag" $eingef{\ddot{u}}gt$ werden. Als Standort ist der ${\ddot{U}}bergang$ vom Dienstin das Werkvertragsrecht vorgesehen, der um die neu zu schaffenden Vorschriften der ${\S}{\S}$ 630 a bis 630 h BGB erweitert wird. Die acht Paragrafen enthalten im Kern eine Kodifikation der von der Rechtsprechung entwickelten $Grunds{\ddot{a}}tze$ zur Arzthaftung. Der Beitrag stellt die bisherige politische Diskussion des Patientenrechtegesetzes vor (II). Im Anschluss daran wird die einzige wesentliche Neuerung des Gesetzes $n{\ddot{a}}her$ untersucht und werden Regelungsziel und Grundkonzept der Kodifikation einer $Pr{\ddot{u}}fung$ unterzogen (III). $Schlie{\ss}lich$ werden einen politischen Ausblick auf die neuen Herausforderungen und die Bewertung der $gegenw{\ddot{a}}rtigen$ Lage und der erwarteten Entwicklung gezogen (IV).

  • This study was performed to investigate the reproducibility of the horizontal and midsagittal planes, and to suggest a stable coordinate system for three-dimensional (3D) cephalometric analysis. Eighteen CT scans were taken and the coordinate system was established using 7 reference points marked by a volume model, with no more than 4 points on the same plane. The 3D landmarks were selected on V works (Cybermed Inc., Seoul, Korea), then exported to V surgery (Cybermed Inc., Seoul, Korea) to calculate the coordinate values. All the landmarks were taken twice with a lapse of 2 weeks. The horizontal and midsagittal planes were constructed and its reproducibility was evaluated. There was no significant difference in the reproducibility of the horizontal reference planes, But, FH planes were more reproducible than other horizontal planes. FH planes showed no difference between the planes constructed with 3 out of 4 points. The angle of intersection made by 2 FH planes, composed of both Po and one Or showed less than $1^{\circ}$ difference. This was identical when 2 FH planes were composed of both Or and one Po. But, the latter cases showed a significantly smaller error. The reproducibility of the midsagittal plane was reliable with an error range of 0.61 to $1.93^{\circ}$ except for 5 establishments (FMS-Nc, Na-Rh, Na-ANS, Rh-ANS, and FR-PNS). The 3D coordinate system may be constructed with 3 planes; the horizontal plane constructed by both Po and right Or; the midsagittal plane perpendicular to the horizontal plane, including the midpoint of the Foramen Spinosum and Nc; and the coronal plane perpendicular to the horizontal and midsagittal planes, including point clinoidale, or sella, or PNS.
