  • Photosensitized extracts of 28 seaweed species were tested in vitro to examine the variation in their algicidal activities against the toxic microalga Cochlodinium polykrikoides. When both seaweed extracts and microalgae were exposed to UV and visible light, methanol extracts of Porphyra yezoensis showed 5.7- and 4.4-fold increasesin light-dependent algicidal activity, respectively. When only seaweed extracts were exposed to both UV (365 nm) and visible light (white lamp) at the same time, methanol extracts of Enteromorpha linza and Carpopeltis affinis showed 3.3- and 3.4-fold increases in algicidal activity, respectively. When UV-photosensitized extracts were left in the dark, the algicidal activity of Ecklonia cava increased 13-fold after 5 h. When visible light-photosensitized extracts were left in the dark, the algicidal activity of Monostroma nitidum increased by 3.3-fold in 1 h.

  • Trauma, congenital malformation and aging process can be a cause of the deviation of laryngeal prominence in the thyroid cartilage. Among these, the senility is the most common cause. Usually, ossification in the thyroid cartilage has occurred symmetrically, but the asymmetrical event leads to the shift of laryngeal prominence. Also, such deformity can provoke protrusion of false vocal fold. A 75-year-old man with hoarseness and globus sense in throat visited our clinic. Five years ago, he experienced a blunt trauma on left midline neck and had a concave deformity in the left thyroid cartilage lamina. Laryngoscopic findings revealed a marked protrusion in the left false vocal fold. We performed the laryngeal microsurgery to discriminate the tumorous condition. The pathology revealed non-pathologic mucosa. We report a unique and didactic case with a brief literature review.

  • Voice is a physical phenomenon, generated by vocal fold and expiratory airflow. Dysphonia should come from abnormal vocal fold and airflow. Occassionally larynx looks normal in show, but it is actually not. There should be undetected structural or functional abnormalities. So when ENT doctors face dysphonia patients who looks normal larynx, should make a diagnosis through close observation. In this review article we present some dysphonia diseases which looks normal larynx. For example vocal fatigue, vocal fold paresis, posterior glottic diastasis, muscle tension dysphonia and psychogenic dysphonia.

  • Deepening of the nasolabial crease is an esthetically unpleasing aging phenomenon occurring in the midface. Various treatment modalities have been introduced to improve the appearance of prominent nasolabial folds, all of which have pros and cons. Currently, a minimally invasive technique using synthetic dermal fillers is most commonly used. A simple and easy subcision procedure using a wire scalpel has also been used and reported to be effective for prominent nasolabial fold correction, with minimal complications. As an alternative to the wire scalpel, we used a 20-gauge metal type spinal needle cannula (Hakko Co.) and 4-0 Vicryl suture (Ethicon Inc.) for subcision of nasolabial folds. This technique is less expensive than the use of a wire scalpel and easily available when needed. Therefore, on the basis of favorable results, our modified subcision technique may be considered effective for prominent nasolabial fold correction.

  • The folding chairs are one of the most necessary furniture for satisfying the moderns' wants which is utilized for limited space rationally. These folding chairs are variously used in interior spaces such as offices, dining areas, and resting areas. They are very easy to move around, so that quiet useful in out door areas, too. Moreover, they play an important role in public spaces as supplementary furniture. The folding chairs have one or several axes, and they are classified according to type of axes like below. 1. Method of divide seating board into 2 and fold, 2. Method of folds seating board and lay on bottom of backboard, 3. Method of fold back board and lay on top of seating board, 4. Method of fold into contact with left and right, 5. Method of gathering legs into one and fold. The folding chairs have to be easy to operate, firm and safe, light for moving around easily, designed for able to change units whenever they have damaged. Change of residential spaces according to the trend towards the nuclear family maximized necessity of limited spaces' use. Therefore, this study provides insights for development of new methods' of folding chairs.

  • Paradoxical vocal fold movement (PVFM) is characterized by aberrant vocal fold adduction. Although the exact pathogenesis is unknown, botulinum toxin injection, behavioral techniques, including speech therapy, bio-feedback, and cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy are considered for treatment of PVFM. The effectiveness of these treatments is not fully evaluated because of the rarity of disease. We present a case of 16-year-old female with sudden onset of respiratory distress associated with PVFM refractory to several treatments and spontaneously resolved later.

  • Epicanthoplasty was performed in 98 patients with the epicanthal fold. Epicanthal fold was classified into three categories-minimal degree, moderate degree, severe degree-according to its severity. In accurate anatomic dissection in medial canthal area, the pathologic mechanism of the formation of the epicanthal fold, I think, are not only the redundancy of skin, but also the early downward insertion of the preseptal and pretarsal portion of orbicularis oculi muscle. A new surgical technique is described for the correction of the epicanthal fold. The procedure is simple to perform and uniformly gives good results.

  • 0.1%-Merthiolate solutions were applied to rats with or without sodium selenite. Rat organs were excised under ether anesthesia. Mercury contents in rat tissues were determined by quartz tube combustion gold amalgamation method. Mercury contents were accumulated at about 3-fold in the brain, 143-fold in the kidney, 62-fold in the blood cell, 22-fold in the liver than those of untreated rats respectively, on the 1st day after application of mert iolate for 7 days. On the other hand, the addition of sodium selenite caused a shift in the tissue mercury distribution. Our study showed that simultaneous administration of sodium selenite increased the accumulation of mercury in the brain, but became to decrease it after 9 days, while decreased it in the kidney, but grew to increase it, respectively.

  • In this study, the detection of rubber o-ring defects was carried out using k-fold cross validation and Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm. The data process was carried out in 3 steps. First, we proceeded with a frame alignment to eliminate unnecessary regions in the learning and secondly, we applied gray-scale changes for computational reduction. Finally, data processing was carried out using image augmentation to prevent data overfitting. After processing data, SVM algorithm was used to obtain normal and defect detection accuracy. In addition, we applied the SVM algorithm through the k-fold cross validation method to compare the classification accuracy. As a result, we obtain results that show better performance by applying the k-fold cross validation method.
