  • 본 연구에서는 폐기물매립지의 안정화 정도를 용이하게 평가하기 위하여 매립폐기물의 분해정도를 수치화 할 수 있는 매립지의 안정화 지수 개발을 목적으로 하였다. 안정화 지수를 개발하기 위하여 50개소의 사용종료 매립지를 대상으로 침출수 수질, 매립가스 조성, 매립폐기물의 물리화학적 특성 자료를 수집하여 이들의 매립연령별 환경특성을 고찰하였다. 그리고 이들 환경지표중 폐기물매립지의 안정화와 상관도가 높은세부 환경지표로서 침출수의 BOD/CODcr, 발생가스중의 $CH_4$농도, 매립폐기물의 C/N가 안정화 지표로 선정하였다. 각 지표에 대한 매립연령별 추세선을 이용하여 지수화한 결과 매립지 안정화 지수로 다음과 같은 식을 얻을 수 있었다. $$I_{LS}=S_L+S_G+S_W$$ $$S_L=-\{4.892+16.587{\cdot}ln[BOD/COD_{Cr]\}$$ $$S_G=53.872-12.782{\cdot}ln[CH_4]$$ $$S_W=79.382-20.013{\cdot}ln[C/N]$$ (단, $S_L$, $S_G$, and $S_W$는 각각 33.3점이 최대값이다.) 여기서, $I_{LS}$ : 매립지 안정화 지수 $S_L$ : 침출수의 안정화 점수 $S_G$ : 매립가스의 안정화 점수 $S_W$ : 폐기물의 안정화 점수.

  • This study was done to examine whether cigarette smoking improved smooth pursuit eye movement(SPEM) abnormalities in chronic schizophrenic inpatients. Fifteen schizophrenic and twelve alcoholic subjects abstained from their usual cigarette smoking for a minimum of nine hours and their baseline performances during the constant velocity smooth pursuit tasks were assessed. Then, the subjects smoked as much as they desired in a 10 minutes period and were retested immediately after smoking and 15 minutes after smoking. Electrooculographic recordings during the eye movements were converted and saved as digitized files. Power spectral density curves and natural logarithm value of signal/noise(Ln S/N) ratios were computed from them. In the schizophrenic patients, Ln S/N ratios increased significantly immediately after smoking compared to baseline. But, Ln S/N ratios showed no statistically significant changes after 15 minutes compared to baseline. In alcoholic subjects, Ln S/N ratios showed no statistically significant changes immediately after smoking and after 15 minutes compared to baseline. In conclusion, SPEM was improved in schizophrenic patients immediately after smoking and we hypothesized that nicotinic receptor dysfunction maybe a candidate mechanism for smooth pursuit eye movement abnormalities in schizophrenia.

  • 고정층 상압 유통식 반응기를 사용하여 Ln(1)-Ni(5)/SBA-15 (Ln = Dy, Eu, Pr, Tb) 촉매상에서 메탄의 부분 산화 반응을 수행하여 수소의 수율을 조사하였다. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) 분석으로 Ni(5)/SBA-15 촉매에 1 wt%의 Eu를 첨가함으로써 Eu(1)-Ni(5)/SBA-15의 O1s와 Si2p의 핵심 전자 수준의 화학적 이동이 있었으며, O1s, Ni2p3/2, Si2p의 원자의 비가 1.284, 1.298, 1.058로 증가하였다. 촉매 표면상에 O-, O2-의 산소와 Eu3+, Ni0, Ni2+, Si4+의 이온이 존재함을 알 수 있었다. Eu(1)-Ni(5)/SBA-15 촉매상에서 수소의 수율은 57.2%이었으며, Ln(1)-Ni(5)/SBA-15 (Ln = Dy, Pr, Tb)보다 우수한 수소 수율을 보여주었고 25 h의 반응에서 안정된 촉매 활성을 유지하였다. Eu를 Ni(5)/SBA-15에 1wt%를 첨가함으로서 금속과 담체 간에 강한 상호 작용에 의한 SMSI 효과로 산소 빈자리를 만들고 촉매 표면상에 Ni0, N2+의 나노입자의 분산을 증가시켜 촉매 활성을 유지시켰다.

  • Purpose: To date, no studies have been performed on staging based on the lymph node ratio (LNR) in elderly patients with gastric cancer who may require limited lymph node (LN) dissection due to morbidity and tissue fragility. We aimed to develop a new N staging system using the LNR in elderly patients with gastric cancer. Materials and Methods: The present study included patients aged over 75 years who underwent curative gastrectomy between January 1989 and December 2018. Clinicopathological data including the number of retrieved and metastatic LNs were collected and the LNR values were obtained (LNR = the number of metastatic LNs/the number of retrieved LNs). Eleven LNR groups with intervals of 0.1 were divided into four stages based on the inflection points at which the hazard ratio (HR) increased. Survival analysis was performed to evaluate the prognostic value of the LNR. Results: The four LNR stages included LNR0 (n=364), LNR1 (n=128), LNR2 (n=103), and LNR3 (n=10). In the multivariate analysis, both N staging and LNR staging exhibited significant prognostic values for predicting survival outcomes. However, the incremental change in the hazard ratio (HR) between consecutive stages was greater for the LNR staging than for the N staging (HRs: 1.607, 2.758, and 3.675 for N staging; 1.583, 3.514, and 10.261 for LNR staging). Conclusions: LNR staging is more useful than N staging in predicting the prognosis in elderly patients with gastric cancer and may be used as a complement or alternative to N staging.

  • 목 적: 정신분열병 환자의 안구추적운동 이상은 유력한 생물학적인 지표이나 유전자적인 원인에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되지 못하였다. 최근 여러 연구들에서 dystrobrevin binding protein 1(DTNBP1, dysbindin)이 정신분열병의 원인 유전자의 후보 유전자로서 시사되었으나 정신분열병 환자의 안구운동 이상의 원인으로 작용할 것인지에 대한 연구는 거의 없었다. 본 연구의 목적은 DTNBP1 유전자상에 존재한 비교적 인접한 두개의 단염기 다형성들인 SNP A와 P1763이 정신분열병 환자의 안구추적운동 이상의 유전자적인 원인으로 작용할 것인지를 알아보고자 시행되었다. 방 법: 대상군은 217명의 입원한 만성 정신분열병 환자들이며 안구운동(SPEM)을 측정하였고, 신호/잡음의 자연대수 값(Ln S/N ratio)을 구하여 안구운동이 우수한 군과 열등한 군으로 구분하였다. 이후 대상군의 혈액에서 추출한 DNA로부터 DTNBP1 유전자상의 단 염기 다형성들인 SNP A와 P1763를 분석하여 유전자형과 대립인자형을 알아낸 후, 안구운동 이상 유무에 따른 두 군사이의 분포의 차이를 조사하였다. 결 과: 정신분열병 환자들 중 안구운동이 우수한 군의 신호/잡음의 자연대수 값(Ln S/N ratio)의 평균과 표준편차는 $4.39{\pm}0.33$이었고, 안구운동이 열등한 군의 신호/잡음의 자연 대수 값(Ln S/N ratio)의 평균과 표준편차는 $3.17{\pm}0.71$이었다. 두 군 사이에 나이나 성별비율의 차이는 통계적으로 의미가 없었다. SNP A와 P1763의 유전자형과 대립인자형의 분포의 차이는 안구운동 이상 유무에 따라 구분한 두군 사이에 나타나지 않았다. 결 론: DTNBP1 유전자상에 존재한 SNP A와 P1763은 정신분열병 환자의 안구추적운동 이상의 유전자적인 원인으로 작용한다는 증거를 얻지 못하였다.

  • The study was designed to evaluate the effect of 2% seamustard (Undaria pinnatifida) by-product (SW) on growth performance, immunity, carcass characteristics, cholesterol content and fatty acid profile in Hanwoo steers. A total of 20 Hanwoo steers (ave. 22 months old; 619 kg body weight) were randomly assigned to control (basal diet) and 2% SW supplemented diet. Dietary SW supplementation significantly (p<0.05) improved average daily gain and gain:feed ratio as well as serum immunoglobulin G concentration. Chemical composition and quality grade of meat and carcass yield grades evaluated at the end of the trial were found to be unaffected by SW supplementation. Dietary SW significantly reduced meat cholesterol concentration (p<0.05). Dietary SW supplementation significantly reduced the myristic acid (C14:0) and palmitoleic acid (C16:ln-7) concentration, while SW increased the concentration of stearic acid (C18:0) and linolenic acid (C18:3n-3) compared to control (p<0.05). Dietary SW supplementation had no effect on saturated fatty acids (SFA), unsaturated fatty acids, poly unsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) or mono unsaturated fatty acid content in muscles. A reduced ratio of PUFA/SFA and n-6/n-3 were found in SW supplemented group (p<0.05). In conclusion, 2% SW supplementation was found to improve growth, immunity and fatty acid profile with significantly reduced cholesterol of beef.

  • Like composite material. the coil winding pack of the KSTAR (Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research) consist of multiphase element such as metallic jacket material for protecting superconducting cable, vacuum pressurized imprepregnated (VPI) insulation, and corner roving filler. For jacket material, four CS (Central Solenoid) Coils, $5^{th}$ PF (Poloidal Field) Coil, and TF (Toroidal Field Coil) use Incoloy 908 and $6-7^{th}$ PF coil, Cold worked 316LN. In order to analyze the global behavior of large coil support structure with coil winding pack, it is required to replace the winding pack to monolithic matter with the equivalent mechanical properties, i.e. Young's moduli, shear moduli due to constraint of total nodes number and element numbers. In this study, Equivalent Young's moduli, shear moduli, Poisson's ratio, and thermal expansion coefficient were calculated for all coil winding pack using Finite Element Method.

  • [ $CulnS_2$ ] thin films were synthesized by sulfurization of Cu/In Stacked elemental layer deposited onto glass Substrates by vacuum furnace annealing at temperature $200^{\circ}C$. And structural and electrical properties were measured in order to certify optimum conditions for growth of the ternary compound semiconductor $CuInS_2$ thin films with non-stoichiometry composition. $CuInS_2$ thin film was well made at the annealed $200^{\circ}C$ of SLG/Cu/In/S stacked elemental layer which was prepared by thermal evaporator, and chemical composition of the thin film was analyzed nearly as the proportion of 1 : 1 : 2. Physical properties of the thin film were investigated at various fabrication conditions substrate temperature, annealing and temperature, annealing time by XRD, FE-SEM and Hall measurement system. The compositional deviations from the ideal chemical formula for $200^{\circ}C$ material can be conveniently described by non-molecularity$({\Delta}x=[Cu/In]-1)$ and non-stoichiometry $({\Delta}y=[{2S/(Cu+3In)}-1])$. The variation of ${\Delta}x$ would lead to the formation of equal number of donor and accepters and the films would behave like a compensated material. The ${\Delta}y$ parameter is related to the electronic defects and would determine the type of the majority charge carriers. Films with ${\Delta}y>0$ would behave as p-type material while ${\Delta}y<0$ would show n-type conductivity. At the sane time, carrier concentration, hall mobility and resistivity of the thin films was $9.10568{\times}10^{17}cm^{-3},\;312.502cm^2/V{\cdot}s\;and\;2.36{\times}10^{-2}\;{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$, respectively.

  • 본 연구는 등(Wisteria floribunda(Willd.) DC.)으로 피복된 그늘시렁($L\;7,200{\times}W\;4,200{\times}H\;2,700mn$)의 엽면적지수(LAI)의 변동에 따른 온열환경을 규명하고자 한 것이다. 이를 위해 진주시내 광장($N35^{\circ}10^{\prime}59.8^{{\prime}{\prime}}$, $E128^{\circ}05^{\prime}32.0^{{\prime}{\prime}}$, 표고: 38m)의 등으로 피복된 그늘시렁 하부와 햇빛에 노출된 포장지를 대상으로 맑은 날 미기상을 측정하였다. 범용온열기후지수(UTCI)를 산정하기 위해 봄철과 여름철의 미기상환경으로서 지상 60cm 높이에서 기온, 풍속, 상대습도 그리고 6방향의 장파 및 단파복사를 2017년 4월 9일부터 8월 27일까지 측정하였다. 또한, LAI는 LAI-2200C 수관분석기로 측정하였다. 18일간 오전 10시부터 오후 4시까지의 앉은 자세의 인체가 흡수한 매 1분 간격 인체-생기상학적 자료를 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 측정기간 동안 햇빛노출지에 비해 그늘시렁 하부의 일평균 기온은 $0.7{\sim}2.3^{\circ}C$ 낮았으며, 일평균 풍속과 일평균 상대습도는 각각 0.17~0.38m/s와 0.4~3.1% 높았다. LAI와 쥴리안 데이 사이의 회귀식은 $y=-0.0004x^2+0.1719x-11.765(R^2=0.9897)$였다. 그늘시렁 하부의 일평균 평균복사온도($T_{mrt}$) 값은 햇빛 노출지에 비해 각각 $11.9{\sim}25.5^{\circ}C$로 낮았으며, 최대 평균복사온도 감소(${\Delta}T_{mrt}$)는 $24.1{\sim}30.2^{\circ}C$였다. LAI의 변동에 따른 햇빛 노출지 대비 일평균 $T_{mrt}$ 감소율(%) 사이의 회귀식은 $y=0.0678{\ln}(x)+0.3036(R^2=0.9454)$였다. 그늘시렁 하부의 일평균 UTCI 값은 햇빛 노출지에 비해 각각 $4.1{\sim}8.3^{\circ}C$로 낮았으며, 최대 범용온열기후지수 감소 값(${\Delta}UTCI$)는 $7.8{\sim}10.2^{\circ}C$였다. LAI의 변동에 따른 햇빛 노출지 대비 일평균 UTCI 감소율(%) 사이의 회귀식은 $y=0.0322{\ln}(x)+0.1538(R^2=0.8946)$였다. 종합적으로 보면 여름철에 덩굴식물로 피복된 그늘시렁에 의한 녹음은 차양에 의한 $T_{mrt}$의 감소를 통해 낮 동안 UTCI를 감소시킴으로써 열스트레스를 매우 강한(UTCI>$38^{\circ}C$) 또는 강한(UTCI >$32^{\circ}C$) 단계에서 강한(UTCI >$32^{\circ}C$) 또는 보통(UTCI >$26^{\circ}C$) 단계로 낮추어 준다. 따라서 여름철 열스트레스를 완화하고 쾌적한 인체 온열쾌적성을 제공하기 위해서는 덩굴식물로 피복된 그늘시렁의 도입은 필수적이다. 하지만 폭염 시에는 덩굴식물로 피복된 그늘시렁 하부의 온열환경도 이용자들에게 매우 강한 열 스트레스(UTCI >$38^{\circ}C$)를 주므로 노약자의 옥외활동은 자제시킬 필요가 있다고 판단된다.

  • Objectives According to previous studies, the Chromogranin B (CHGB) gene could be an important candidate gene for schizophrenia which is located on chromosome 20p12.3. Some studies have linked the polymorphism in CHGB gene with the risk of schizophrenia. Meanwhile, smooth pursuit eye movement (SPEM) abnormality has been regarded as one of the most consistent endophenotype of schizophrenia. In this study, we investigated the association between the polymorphisms in CHGB gene and SPEM abnormality in Korean patients with schizophrenia. Methods We measured SPEM function in 24 Korean patients with schizophrenia (16 male, 8 female) and they were divided according to SPEM function into two groups, good and poor SPEM function groups. We also investigated genotypes of polymorphisms in CHGB gene in each group. A logistic regression analysis was performed to find the association between SPEM abnormality and the number of polymorphism. Results The natural logarithm value of signal/noise ratio (Ln S/N ratio) of good SPEM function group was $4.19{\pm}0.19$ and that of poor SPEM function group was $3.17{\pm}0.65$. In total, 15 single nucleotide polymorphisms of CHGB were identified and the genotypes were divided into C/C, C/R, and R/R. Statistical analysis revealed that two genetic variants (rs16991480, rs76791154) were associated with SPEM abnormality in schizophrenia (p = 0.004). Conclusions Despite the limitations including a small number of samples and lack of functional study, our results suggest that genetic variants of CHGB may be associated with SPEM abnormality and provide useful preliminary information for further study.nwhile, smooth pursuit eye movement (SPEM) abnormality has been regarded as one of the most consistent endophenotype of schizophrenia.
