This study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of formulations and application timings of imazosulfuron+fentrazamide in rice field. Weeding efficacy of imazosulfuron+fentrazamide SC (75+300 g a.i./ha) was more than 95% except Bidens tripartita. The efficacy of this formulation was not related to its formulations but was highly related to application timing. Herbicide application before 5 days after transplanting was best timing to get a maximum weed control. Systemic application before and after transplanting was much higher than single application for weed control. Second leaf stage of Echinochloa spp. and sulfonylurea resistant Monochoria vaginalis was controled over 90% in the imazosulfuron+fentrazamide SC (75+300 g a.i./ha). Based on these data, imazosulfuron+fentrazamide can be applied to provide effective weed control especially in the field infested with herbicide resistant M. vaginalis.

The goal of this study is construction and efficacy evaluation of MPC-25 (Magnetic Pain Control-25), a medical device using magnetic stimulation. MPC-25 consists of a main body containing power supply and control module and a bed containing magnetic core and coil. In distinction from electric pain control medical devices, magnetic pain control system is non-contact, so the patients need not take off their clothes to be treated. High amplitude current pulses are applied to a magnetic coil and induce time varying magnetic field generating eddy current in a conductor like human body. Clinical efficacy test was performed in patients suffering from musculoskeletal pain of lumbar, shoulder and joint. Degree of pain before and after treatment for 30 minutes was compared using Visual Analogous Scale. As a result, 14 cases out of 20 showed decreased pain perception, so the rate of efficacy is 70%. Reduction of pain perception was statistically significant (P=0.001 by Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test).

This study examined the effect of cookbang cognition on the star chef image and career preparation behavior, and the moderating effect of career self-efficacy. A self-reported questionnaire survey was conducted on 271 college students of culinary arts major in Daegu and Gyeongju area and analyzed using a structural equation model. As results, cookbang cognition showed a significant positive effect on the star chef image, and image also had a positive effect on career preparation behavior. In addition, career self-efficacy has a moderating effect on the relationship between the star chef image and career preparation behavior. Through these results, it is possible to suggest foundation for the related field through theoretical and empirical verification of the process in which the influence of cookbang affects career preparation behavior. In the future, more systematic study in this field is required.

Purpose: This study aims to provide essential data for developing educational methods and content, tailored for the prehospital field situation, by analyzing the effects of education regarding the management of cardiac arrest. Methods: This study is a primitive experimental study of 55 new firefighters in C Fire Service Academy. Data were collected from the training which was imparted using the CPR virtual reality simulation program (CBS 2.0) in accordance with COVID-19 quarantine rules and social distancing. Data were analyzed utilizing SPSS version 25.0. Results: After VR simulation training, knowledge about performing CPR (14.85) and self-efficacy (4.12) were significantly high (p<.001). Learning immersion was also high (3.99±0.59), but learning satisfaction was even higher (4.34±0.62). Depending on the recruitment field, firefighters showed higher learning immersion (4.04±0.58 vs 3.68±0.63) and self-efficacy (4.16±0.55 vs 3.91±0.84) than 119 EMTs' but, there was no significant difference between them. In contrast, The quality of performance of CPR by EMT's was significantly higher than that of firefighters (p=.025). Depending on previous simulation experience, there was no significant difference among dependent variables. Conclusion: Virtual reality simulation shows positive results in learning immersion, learning satisfaction, self-efficacy, and performance of CPR. Therefore, we propose that virtual reality simulation training can be a new educational paradigm.

Background: The objective of this study was to demonstrate the safety, efficacy, and feasibility of intraoperative monitoring of the recurrent laryngeal nerves during thoracoscopic and robotic 3-field esophagectomy. Methods: This retrospective analysis details our initial experience using intraoperative nerve monitoring (IONM) during minimally invasive 3-field esophagectomy. Data were obtained from a prospectively maintained database and electronic medical records. The study included all patients who underwent minimally invasive (video-assisted thoracic surgery/robotic) transthoracic esophagectomy with neck anastomosis. The patients were divided into those who underwent IONM during the study period and a historical cohort who underwent 3-field esophagectomy without IONM at the same institution. Appropriate statistical tests were used to compare the 2 groups. Results: Twenty-four patients underwent nerve monitoring during minimally invasive 3-field esophagectomy. Of these, 15 patients underwent thoraco-laparoscopic operation, while 9 received a robot-assisted procedure. In the immediate postoperative period, 8 of 24 patients (33.3%) experienced vocal cord paralysis. Relative to a historical cohort from the same institution, who were treated with surgery without nerve monitoring in the preceding 5 years, a 26% reduction was observed in the nerve paralysis rate (p=0.08). On follow-up, 6 of the 8 patients with vocal cord paralysis reported a return to normal vocal function. Additionally, patients who underwent IONM exhibited a higher nodal yield and a decreased frequency of tracheostomy and bronchoscopy. Conclusion: The use of IONM during minimally invasive 3-field esophagectomy is safe and feasible. This technique has the potential to decrease the incidence of recurrent nerve palsy and increase nodal yield.

To investigate control efficacy of flusulfamide GR (granule) on Chinese cabbage clubroot caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae, experiment was accomplished in field located in Gangneungshi alpine area contaminated by P. brassicae. Flusulfamide GR provided control value of 84.6% and that was statistically significant difference from standard fungicides containing untreated control. To investigate ratio of reduction of resting spore according to fungicide treatment, soil of Chinese cabbage field before and after fungicide treatment were sampled and investigated density of resting spore. Resting spore density was not uniform in soil before fungicide treatment. Therefore, to investigate control efficacy of fungicide against clubroot, investigation on resting spore density was conducted before experiment and reflected in experimental design. Flusulfamide GR and DP (dust powder) provided 64.2% and 63.7% of reduction of resting spore on field soil after fungicide treatments. This result indicated that control efficacy of the fungicides was correlated with reduction of resting spore of P. brassicae. The increasing rate in fresh weight of above-ground part of Chinese cabbage by flusulfamide DP and GR, fluazinam DP and trifloxystrobin SC (suspension concentrate) was 14.3%, 13.0%, 13.8% and 3.8%, respectively. From above result, flusulmide GR have outstanding control efficacy against clubroot of Chinese cabbage and is effectively decreasing of resting spore density in soil.

An experiment was conducted to examine the efficacy of spray vaccination against Newcastle disease (ND). Four different coarse sprayers and four different diluents were compared in particle size, immune response and respiratory reaction. The smaller particle size of sprayer was, the better efficacy was and the more respiratory reactions were appeared. Of four diluents, antibody responses and resistance to challenge were higher with skim milk and gelatin, respectively .When day-old broiler chicks with maternal antibodies were vaccinated by coarse. sprayer B with B$_1$strain diluted in 1% skim milk, they showed 100% protection at two weeks of age and 50% from 4 to 8 weeks of age. Another group which boostered at 2 weeks of age by drinking water vaccination showed 100%, 70%, 50%, 40% protection at 2, 4, 6, 8 weeks of age, respectively. Although spray vaccination against ND in this experiments showed similar efficacy, compared to conventional methods, this method may not be appropriate in our field condition because of respiratory vaccinal reaction.

Smartphone security threat has become an important issue in Information Science field following the wide distribution of smartphones. However, there are few studies related to such. Therefore, this study examined the factors affecting the intention of smartphone users to use the mobile vaccine against malware with the Protection Motivation Theory. To secure the reliability of the study, a surveying agency was commissioned. A total of 263 respondents, excluding 37 respondents who are users of iOS, which does not have mobile vaccine in the smart phone, or who gave invalid responses, were surveyed. The results showed that perception of the installed mobile vaccine significantly affected the Response Efficacy and Self-efficacy, and that the Perceived Severity, Perceived Vulnerability, Response Efficacy, and Self-efficacy significantly influenced the intention to use the mobile vaccine. On the other hand, Installation Perception of mobile vaccine itself did not affect the Perceived Severity and Perceived Vulnerability. This study is significant since it presented the new evaluation model of threat evaluation and response evaluation in the Protection Motivation Theory in accepting the security technology and raised the need for the promotion and exposure of mobile vaccine, since perception of mobile vaccine installation affects the response evaluation. It also found that the promotion must consider the seriousness of smartphone security, outstanding attribute of mobile vaccine, and user-friendliness of mobile vaccine above all.
