  • Purpose : The purpose of this study is understanding of Rett Syndrome. Rett Syndrome is a common developmental - neurologic disorder that has been reported almost exclusively in female. Recently mutations in the gene encoding X-linked methyl-CpG binding protein 2 (MECP2) have been identified as the cause of Rett syndrome. Consistent with the diagnostic criteria, hand skills, verbal or non - verbal communication skills and common motor skills were lost during regression. Regression most commonly occurred between 12 and 18 months of age. Methods : This is a literature study with books, articles, web site for Rett syndrome international association. Results : There is a continuing need to further elucidate the pre- and post - regression features of Rett syndrome. Rett syndrome need to physical therapy, musical therapy, special education and medical interventions. Conclusion : There has not been therapeutic method to the root of Rett syndrome but our goal is relaxation of symptom and physical therapist's study of Rett syndrome.

  • EEG-based brain computer interface(BCI) provides a new communication channel between human brain and computer. EEG data is a multivariate time series so that hidden Markov model (HMM) might be a good choice for classification. However EEG is very noisy data and contains artifacts, so useful features mr expected to improve the performance of HMM. In this paper we addresses the usefulness of principal component features with Hidden Markov model (HHM). We show that some selected principal component features can suppress small noises and artifacts, hence improves classification performance. Experimental study for the classification of EEG data during imagination of a left, right up or down hand movement confirms the validity of our proposed method.

  • This study deals with the characteristics of wire-cut EDM(Electrical Discharge Machining)process in aluminum alloys. Besides 2 series and 7 series of aluminum alloys for aerospace applications, porous aluminum is tested, which is used for sound absorbing matherial and interior and exterior material of building. Jinyoung JW-30 wire cutting machine was used in this experiment. Tap wate passed a filter and ionization was used as the discharging solution. An immerision method was applied as a cooling method because it separates chips effectively and machinability is good even with low value of electric current. The speed of fabrication was estimated by measuring the travel distance of the work piece and time spent for the movement. As pulse-on-time increased the fabrication speed decreased. On the other hand, as peak voltage of peak current increased the fabrication speed increased. In general 7075 aluminum alloy resulted in higher fabrication speed.

  • A considerable change observed in X-ray diffraction during the muscle contraction was that the movement of myosin head and conformational change of contractile monecules were occurred in the muscle contraction. Time slice requires tension peak after the onset of stimulation and the height of tension peak depends on the number of twitch cycle. The intensity of I$_{11}$, I$_{10}$, 143${\AA}$ reflection is measured with 5ms time resolution and is recorded in isometric tension. The peak height of I$_{11}$ and 143${\AA}$ intensity is changed after the onset of a stimulation I$_{i}$, and the length of twitch is shortened by successive twitches in the case of stimulation TI$_{i}$. On the other hand, the peak height of I$_{11}$ and 215${\AA}$ intensity starts to decrease at the 1st twitch and remains constant at low peak hight without appreciable recovery during the contraction term. In the case of uccessive twitch stimulation, the myosin heads of muscle are once moved from their resting position and never returned to their initial position.

  • Automated polishing apparatus based on the research have been developed. The research is improvement of polishing process for surface quality and uniformity improvement of preform injection mold core. Surface quality of preform core have influence on ejecting and product quality after injection molding. Thus, the current being made by hand to automate the polishing process, the surface of the preform to improve the quality and uniformity improvement. First made a division by analyzing manual process a step-by-step. And draw a mechanism for converting mechanical movement. Automated polishing apparatus for preform core was developed, through which shortens production time and were able to secure the safety of the worker.

  • The Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders(WMSDs) have been an rising issue since the 1970s. So many manufacturing companies have been tried to improve the work environments for the control and the prevention of the WMSDs. Specific risk factors associated with WMSDs include repetitive motion, heavy lifting, forceful exertion, contact stress, vibration, awkward posture and rapid hand and wrist movement. But recently it has reported that besides working conditions, job stress is the important hazard causes which lead to WMSDs. This study investigates the relation between WMSDs and Job stress from 1426 workers in Heavy Industry. Job stress was evaluated by Karasek's model. Job stress was associated with job satisfaction. Job demand was associated with the WMSDs, but job control was not associated with the WMSDs. The results can be used to design the management program for the WMSDs and the job stress.

  • Humans have used acceleration sensors to perceive behavior. Using the application principles of inertia sensor such as acceleration and gyro sensors, the sensor indirectly measures movement through forces applied on a three-dimensional axis. This may result in different results depending on the location of the sensor in possession, even in the same way. The sensor, which is also mounted on popular smartphones, measured different values of acceleration sensors, whether in hand or in pocket, which are commonly used by people.

  • Although Rap GTPases of the Ras family remained enigmatic for years, extensive studies in this decade have revealed diverse functions of Rap signaling in the control of cell proliferation, differentiation, survival, adhesion, and movement. With the use of gene-engineered mice, we have uncovered essential roles of endogenous Rap signaling in normal lymphocyte development of both T- and B-lineage cells. Deregulation of Rap signaling, on the other hand, results in the development of characteristic leukemia in manners highly dependent on the contexts of cell lineages. These results highlight crucial roles of Rap signaling in the physiology and pathology of lymphocyte development.
