  • C.I.F. and F.O.B. contracts are the chief terms used in international trade contracts. But, in recently, the multimodal transport which is based on the containerization and the improvement of air transport has been grown gradually, Regardless of theese change in international trade environment, most of the contract of sale is made by C.I.F. and F.O.B. contracts which are based on the traditional port to port transport. In other words, there are some limitation in terms of legal base in which traditional C.I.F. and F.O.B. contract is applied to the changed environment. Especially, problems arised in marine insurance which export by F.O.B. trade terms. Therefore, when the parties of the contracts of sale make an sale contracts by using the container ship and Multimodal Transport, they should use the F.C.A. and C.I.P. contracts Instead of F.O.B. and C.I.F. contracts for the transport of goods. And parties of the contracts of sale need to gain a better understanding of the characteristic of F.C.A. and C.I.P. terms and the problem of the F.C.A. and C.I.P. contracts used in the performance on international multimodal transport.

  • For a locus with two alleles (IA and IB), the frequencies of the alleles are represented by $$p=f(I^A)={\frac{2N_{AA}+N_{AB}}{2N}},\;q=f(I^B)={\frac{2N_{BB}+N_{AB}}{2N}}$$ where NAA, NAB and NBB are the numbers of IAIA, IAIB and IBIB respectively and N is the total number of populations. The frequencies of the genotypes expected are calculated by using p2, 2pq and q2. Choi defined the density and operator for the value of the frequency of one gene and found the adapted partial differential equation as a follow-up for the frequency of alleles and applied this adapted partial differential equation to several diploid model [1]. In this paper, we find adapted equations for the model for selection against recessive homozygotes and in case that the alley frequency changes after one generation of selection when there is no dominance. Also we consider the triploid model with three alleles IA, IB and i and determine whether six genotypes observed are in Hardy-Weinburg for equilibrium.

  • The following suggested algorithm is completed care report for the family medical history. Rn=$U\;Pnj+U\;Dn^i$ : (j=1,2,...,j), (i=1,2,...,i), (n=1,2,...,n) The Rn(completed care report) integrates comprehensive patients reports ranging from patient $P^2\;to\;P^j$ including $P^1$ (oneself) with the doctors' care reports up to the care No. no by i number of doctors ($D^1$ =doctor in charge, $D^{2,3...i}$=doctors on corporation program.) This approach, since a participation in a family membership effectuates all of family members, can minimize the membership fees, thus enabling inter-family health care on a home doctor basis.

  • Multiplication and spore production of three microsporidia viz., Nosema bombycis, Nosema sp. 1 and Nosema sp. 2 in fifth instar larval tissues of silkworm, Bombyx mori L. in two seasons with distinct temperature regimes were studied. Nosema sp. 2 produced significantly (P < 0.01) higher number of spores in various tissues. Among the tissues, spore production was highest in silk gland, followed by fat body and gut. Spore production was significantly (P < 0.01) higher in season-II (Average temperature $29.4{\pm}1.1^{\circ}C$). Maximum spore production was observed 25 days post inoculation (p. i.) in season-I (Average temperature $18.9{\pm}1.1^{\circ}C$), whereas in season-II, it was 14 days p. i. In season-I, spore production was low up to 21 days p. i., then increased sharply. In season-II, there was a steady increase in spore production. The results indicate that the microsporidian multiplication is tissue specific and extremely sensitive to temperature at which the host is reared. It also reveals that, silk gland, fat body and gut are the most appropriate tissues for microscopic identification of microsporidia in the larval stage.

  • Citrullinemia type I is an urea cycle defect caused by mutations in the argininosuccinate synthetase (ASS1) gene. We report a novel argininosuccinate synthetase gene mutation in a Korean family with type I citrullinemia. Metabolic evaluation revealed significant hyperammonemia. Amino acid/acylcarnitine screening using tandem mass spectrometry showed high level of citrulline. Plasma amino acid analysis showed high level of citrulline and the urine organic acid analysis showed makedly increased level of orotic acid. To confirm diagnosis of citrullinemia we did mutation analysis of the ASS1 gene. The patient was found to have mutations of c.689G>C (p.G230A) and c.892G>A (p.E298K), which were new types of argininosuccinate synthetase gene mutation have never been reported in Korea. We report a novel case of argininosuccinate synthetase 1 gene mutation and suggest that the gene study to the family members is necessary to carry out when a patient is diagnosed as citrullinemia.

  • Iron and titanium, the major constituents in iron ores, were X-ray spectrometrically determined by using the dilution parameter method. A standard and samples possessing a similar composition were diluted with the diluent $ZrO_2$ to their proper respective ratios. After measuring the intensity of the fluorescent X-ray, the dilution parameter was calculated from the following equation. $Pa=\frac{\frac{I_{as}}{(I_{as})_d}}{D-1}{^{-1}}$The dilution parameters were used to correct the difference between the matrix effect of the standard and that of the sample. The content of the major constituents was calculated, without using any standard calibration curves, from the following equation;$W_a=W_a^*{\cdot}{\frac{I_as}{I_{as}^*}{\cdot}\frac{P_a^*}{P_a}$where asterisks indicate the standard. The results agreed with those of the wet analysis within 2% of relative error, and the precision of the experiment was also tolerably good.

  • Backgrounds/Aims: This trial evaluated whether anti-inflammatory agents hydrocortisone (H) and indomethacin (I) could reduce major complications after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). Methods: Between June 2018 and June 2020, 105 patients undergoing PD with > 40% of acini on the intraoperative frozen section were randomized into three groups (35 patients per group): 1) intravenous H 100 mg 8 hourly, 2) rectal I suppository 100 mg 12 hourly, and 3) placebo (P) from postoperative day (POD) 0-2. Participants, investigators, and outcome assessors were blinded. The primary outcome was major complications (Clavien-Dindo grades 3-5). Secondary outcomes were overall complications (Clavien-Dindo grades 1-5), Clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF), delayed gastric emptying (DGE), postpancreatectomy hemorrhage (PPH), surgical site infections (SSI), length of stay, POD-3 serum amylase, readmission rate, and mortality. Results: Major complications were comparable (8.6%, 5.7%, and 8.6% in groups H, I, and P, respectively). However, overall complications were significantly lower in group H than in group P (45.7% vs. 80.0%, p = 0.006). CR-POPF (14.3% vs. 25.7%, p = 0.371), PPH (8.6% vs. 14.3%, p = 0.710), DGE (8.6% vs. 22.9%, p = 0.188), and SSI (14.3% vs. 25.7%, p = 0.371) were comparable between groups H and P. Major complications and overall complications in group I were 5.7% and 60.0%, respectively, which were comparable to those in groups P and H. CR-POPF rates in groups H, I, and P were 14.3%, 17.1%, and 25.7%, respectively, which was comparable. Conclusions: H and I did not decrease major complications in PD.

  • The purpose of this study is the approach to I.I.C.P. centered on the meaning of consciousness disorder and the pathological aspect of Kwul (Jose consciousness ; faint, fall into a coma). The meaning of consciousness disorder and apoplexy is evidently involved the definition of Kwul. 1. It is found that the etymological interpretation on Kwul which the energy rises back to go through blocked space and the meaning interpretation of regarding Kwul as apoplexy with medical viewpoint, are related with consciousness disorder and motor disturbance in IICP in the aspect of the rise of Kwul and the abnormal rising of vital energy and blood, In addtion, the overall of meaning of Kwul is showed in table <1-1> by reference to doctors of many generations, 2. The pathology of Kwul includes abnormal rising, sthenia-syndrome in the upper part and asthenia in the lower, the origin of Kwul, the lower, looking like Yin by too sthenic Yang and looking like Yang by too sthenic Yin. The headache, vomiting, papilledema, paralysis of nervi craniales, coma, blood pressure rising, tachycardia by I.I.C.P can be regarded as a conception of trouble of vital energy, sthenia-syndrome of Kwul. The pulse pressure, brachycardia, bradypnea can be regarded as the conception of looking like Yin by too sthenic Yang. 3. In the emergency of Kwul, the abnormal ternimal reversion of the Kwulyin channel, Kuyang channel, and three Yins are related with the phenomenon in I.I.C.P. It is considered that the reverse movement of materials, I.I.C.P. can be closely observed by giving meaning on the meridian of Kwul in Somunkwulron. And the content of phrases of Naelyung which includes consciousness disorder refered in the chapter of Kwul, is compared with I.I.C.P. 4. The followings should be considered; examination of optic symptom and abnormal posture in cerebral herniation ; understanding and working out counterplans of factors and symptoms of consciousness disorder by the observation of vital sign, check of general stages, neurologic inverstigation, clinical diagnosis, and subsidiary diagnosis; application of morphological change of opinion; addtion of the conception of demonstration centered on Yunkyung, Samyinkwulruk, asthenia and thenia of healthy energy in oriental medicine. 5. The similarity of Kwul and I.I.C.P. can be found from etiology and pathotenic factor. The similarity is clearly found by investigation of etiology, pathotenic factor, symptoms and thrapy of Kwul, disease symptom ar.d other symptoms.

  • Objective: The objectives of this study were to compare the effects of normal and low protein content (PC) of starter diet supplemented or not with blends of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) on growth performance of broilers under summer conditions and to investigate whether these effects altered some quality traits and the characteristics of gastrointestinal tract. Methods: A total of 768 mixed-sex broiler chicks (Ross 308, one-d-old) with an average initial body weight (BW) of 47.6±1.03 g were allocated into six treatments with four replications in 2×3 factorial arrangement. Factors were: PC, normal (N, 22% to d 15); and low (L, 20% to d 15); and added BCAA blends, L-leucine, L-isoleucine, and L-valine at zero (0L:0I:0V); 1.0, 0.25, and 0.25 (4L:1I:1V); or 1.0, 0.25, 0.75 (4L:1I:3V) g/kg of diet. Hence, six dietary treatments were named as N0L:0I:0V, N4L:1I:1V, N4L:1I:3V, L0L:0I:0V, L4L:1I:1V, and L4L:1I:3V. Average indoor temperature and humidity were 32.8℃±1.7℃ and 61.1%±4.12%, respectively. Results: BW, feed conversion ratio (FCR) and carcass weight were not affected by PC, BCCA and their interaction (p>0.05). The L diets decreased the water holding capacity of the breast (p = 0.002) and thigh (p = 0.050) meats and dressing percentage (p = 0.005) compared to the N diets. The 4L:1I:1V diet decreased breast yield compared to the 0L:0I:0V diets (p = 0.041). The effect of PC on feed intake, mortality and gastrointestinal trait weight were depended on the L:I:V ratios under summer conditions due to interactions between factors (p<0.05). The FI and mortality of L4L:1I:1V broilers were lower than those of N4L:1I:1V birds (p<0.05). Conclusion: It was concluded that the blends of BCAAs used failed to improve performance and to promote breast yields, because diets with normal or with reduced protein supplemented or not with BCAAs up to d 15 produced a similar BW and FCR in broilers raised in hot-climate conditions.

  • Studies were performed to determine the effect of Korean red ginseng (extract powder, spray-dried), it is made of choice 6-year-old raw ginseng roots, and processed by steaming and drying, on jejunal crypt survival, endogenous spleen colony formation, and apoptosis in jejunal crypt cells of irradiated mice. Jejunal crypts were protected by pretreatment of red ginseng (1 mg/head, single I.P. at 24hours before irradiation, p<0.05). Red ginseng administration before irradiation (1 mg/head, single I.P at 24hours before irradiation) resulted in an increase of the formation of endogenous spleen colony (p<0.05). The frequency of radiation-Induced apoptosis in intestinal crypt cells was also reduced by treatment of red ginseng both pretreatment (P.O.: 2 mg/ml of drinking water for 7 days, p<0.005, I.P.: 1 mg/head, single I.P. at 24 hours before irradiation, p<0.005) and post-treatment (1 mg/head, single I.P at 30 minutes after irradiation, p<0.05). These results indicated that Korean red ginseng might be a useful radio-protector, especially since it is a relatively nontoxic natural product. Further studies are needed to characterize better the promotion nature of red ginseng and its fractions.
