Blood perfusion of skeletal muscle and callus was evaluated using contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) in a canine osteotomy model to determine the applicability of CEUS in the assessment of neovascularization during fracture healing and to compare the vascular signals on CEUS between external skeletal fixation and cast-applied dogs. In 6 Beagle dogs, a simple transverse osteotomy was performed at the left tibial shaft and external skeletal fixation (n = 3) or a cast (n = 3) was applied. Radiography, power Doppler ultrasonography (power Doppler), and CEUS were performed until complete union was achieved. On CEUS, vascular changes were quantitatively evaluated by measuring peak intensity (PI) and time to PI in the soft tissue and callus and by counting the vascular signals. Vascular signals from the soft tissue were detected on power Doppler and CEUS on day 2. Significantly more vascular signals were detected by CEUS than by power Doppler. On CEUS, PI in the surrounding soft tissue was markedly increased after the fracture line appeared indistinctively changed on radiography in all dogs. In the cast-applied dogs, vascular signals from the periosteal and endosteal callus were detected on CEUS before mineralized callus was observed on radiography. CEUS was useful in assessing the vascularity of soft tissue and callus, particularly in indirect fracture healing, and provided indications of a normally healing fracture.

목적: 본 연구는 아유르베다 사상을 통해 현대 서양 과학과 철학의 한계의 원인을 고찰하고, 치유사업 발전을 위한 홀리즘의 길을 모색하고자 하였다. 이에 현대 서양 문명이 오늘의 한계에 이르게 된 배경과 치유사업의 현실이 그맥을 함께 할 것이라 추론하였다. 방법: 이를 살펴보기 위해 동서양의 '몸과 마음에 대한 인식'의 차이와 '존재의 근원에 대한 관점'의 차이를 살펴보고 이에 따른 아유르베다 5원소설의 특징을 살펴보았다. 결과: 그 과정을 통해 서양의 '심신이원론'과 서양 4원소설에서의 '공(空)요소'의 부재'를 한계의 원인으로 지목하게 되었다. '공(空)요소'가 보이지 않는 세계, 비물질의 세계라는 점에서 공의 부재가 서양 문명의 한계인 동시에 국가 치유사업 현실의 문제라고 결론짓게 되었다. 결론: 본 연구가 아유르베다 사상의 지속적인 연구와 자연치유 분야의 연구로 이어져 치유사업의 발전의 기초정보가 되고, 국민의 건강과 웰빙·자기치유를 기대하여 본다.

The purpose of this study was to explore the experiences and future challenges in providing of social service based on agro-healing. The study conducted was a general qualitative research which involved the collection and analysis of experiences shared by four representatives of participating in Gyeonggi-do community service investment pilot project. The data were gathered through individual in-depth interviews, and the findings were thoroughly analyzed to draw meaningful insights. The study revealed three main topics of discussion: "knowing the necessity of entering social services," "thresholds to be crossed to enter social services," and "future tasks". Based on the these results, implications for the development of community social services related to agro-healing were suggested, and the limitations were also discussed.

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism of promoted skin wound healing in skin defects with primary cultured oral mucosal keratinocytes. Materials and methods: Thirty adult female nude mice weighing $20{\pm}2g$ were used for the experiment. Primary cultured and suspended oral mucosal keratinocytes, labeled with BrdU, were scattered onto $1.5cm{\times}1.5cm$ sized full thickness skin defects in the experimental group(N=15), and no grafts were placed the control group(N=15). They were sacrificed at 3 days, 1 week and 2 weeks after the treatment respectively. Histological examination of each wounds were performed to review the healing progress on measuring the length from the wound margin to regenerating epithelial front. The role of keratinocytes were assessed by double immunohistochemical staining with Anti-BrdU and Anti-cytokeratin AE1/3. Results: In the experimental group the wound was completely covered with regenerating epithelia in 2 weeks, but partially regenerated in the control group. The immunohistochemical studies unexpectedly reveal that most of regenerating epithelial cells were induced from marginal epithelium of the margin, not from the scattered keratinocytes. Conclusion: We could successfully confirm that graft of primary cultured oral mucosal keratinocytes promotes the regeneration of skin defects.

This project was planned to construct the healing environment in medical clinic. The concepts of design were extracted from the literatures on this subject, and reflected on the output of design. The main concepts for the healing environment consisted of light, control of privacy and communication, efficiency, comfort, and identity. As a result the healing values had been realized in this medical clinic with design concepts, and we expected that they would provide users of this clinic with well-being society.

Purpose: Placing dental implants in areas with low bone density or in conditions where bone healing is suppressed is challenging for clinicians. An experiment using a rodent model was performed with the aim of determining the efficacy of host modulation by increasing the systemic level of cholesterol sulfate (CS) using Irosustat in the context of the bone healing process around dental implants. Methods: In 16 ovariectomised female Sprague-Dawley rats, 2 implant fixtures were placed in the tibial bones (1 fixture on each side). At 1 week after surgery, the high-CS group (n=8) received Irosustat-mixed feed, while the control group (n=8) was fed conventionally. Block specimens were obtained at 5 weeks post-surgery for histologic analysis and the data were evaluated statistically (P<0.05). Results: Unlike the high-CS group, half of the specimens in the control group demonstrated severe bone resorption along with a periosteal reaction in the cortex. The mean percentages of bone-to-implant contact (21.5%) and bone density (28.1%) near the implant surface were significantly higher in the high-CS group than in the control group (P<0.05), as was the number of Haversian canals (by 5.3). Conclusions: Host modulation by increasing the CS level may enhance the osseointegration of dental implants placed under conditions of impaired bone healing.

Self healing systems are considered as cognation-enabled sub form of fault tolerance system. But our experiments that we report in this paper show that self healing systems can be used for performance optimization, configuration management, access control management and bunch of other functions. The exponential complexity that results from interaction between autonomic systems and users (software and human users) has hindered the deployment and user of intelligent systems for a while now. We show that if that exceptional complexity is converted into self-growing knowledge (policies in our case), can make up for initial development cost of building an intelligent system. In this paper, we report the application of AHSEN (Autonomic Healing-based Self management Engine) to in OKKAM Project infrastructure backbone cluster that mimics the web service based architecture of u-Zone gateway infrastructure. The 'blind' load division on per-request bases is not optimal for distributed and performance hungry infrastructure such as OKKAM. The approach adopted assesses the active threads on the virtual machine and does resource estimates for active processes. The availability of a certain server is represented through worker modules at load server. Our simulation results on the OKKAM infrastructure show that the self healing significantly improves the performance and clearly demarcates the logical ambiguities in contemporary designs of self healing infrastructures proposed for large scale computing infrastructures.

The purpose of this study is to examine application possibility as the inhabitants educational program for community design workshops of regional linking cooperation project "Sejong healing road 100 project". As a results follows : First, It can confirm inhabitants ability reinforcement through administration of the 8-week educational program, and a participation rate is important in it. Second, 'The tool of inhabitants opinion expression using a Post-it' is easy as a tool of the workshops, and the effect improves if It use a drawing together. Third, 'The tool of inhabitants opinion expression using figure card' is the most effective as expression of the inhabitants intention as a tool of the workshops, but preparations process is complicated. Moreover, for the inhabitants participation in regional linking cooperation projects, the development system of a more systematic inhabitants intention expression is necessary.
