본 연구는 사람의 뇌에 대한 자기공명영상에서 백질과 회백질을 분리하고 각각의 체적을 산출하기 위한 것이다. 일반적으로 치매나 다운증후군 같은 정신질환의 경우 백질 또는 회백질의 위축으로 인해 체적이 감소하게 되므로, 사람의 뇌에 대하여 백질과 회백질의 체적 산출을 통한 크기의 변화를 추적함으로서 여러 정신질환의 진단 및 조기 발견에 유용하게 이용될 수 있다. 그러나 일정한 두께의 단면을 촬영하여 단일의 명암 값으로 표현하는 자기공명영상기기의 특성상 번짐 현상을 보이는 자기공명영상으로부터 원래의 두께 안에 존재하는 각 성분의 부분체적을 산출할 수 없음으로 인해 백질과 회백질의 체적산출이 현재까지 불가능하였다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 번짐(blurred)을 보이는 자기공명영상에서 번진 명암 값을 해석하는 새로운 알고리즘에 의해 백질과 회백질의 부분체적을 산출하고, 이를 근거로 자기공명영상에서 백질과 회백질을 분리하기 위한 판별값을 결정하였으며, 결정된 판별값에 의해 분리된 영상에서 백질과 회백질의 체적을 산출하였다. 또한 제안된 알고리즘의 검증을 위해 인위적으로 생성된 모델에 알고리즘을 적용하여 산출된 결과를 원래의 모델과 비교하여 보았다.

The objective of this study was to identify the effects of the cognitive performance of stroke patients on their motor function recovery after comprehensive rehabilitation management. The subjects of this study were 41 stroke in-patients of the Rehabilitation Hospital, College of Medicine, Yonsei University, hospitalized during the period from September 1, 1997 to May 5, 1998. The cognitive performance was measured using a Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE) and the motor function recovery using Motor Assessment Scale(MAS). The data were analyzed by the paired t-test, independent t-test, a one way ANOVA, and Pearson's correlation coefficiency. The findings were as follows: 1. There was a significant difference found in the motor function recovery level after the comprehensive rehabilitation management. 2. There was no significant difference found in relation to sex, age, cause of stroke, laterality of paralysis and the level of spasticity. However, there was a big difference between pre- and post-treatment regarding the treatment period. 3. In line with the cognitive performance level, there was a significant difference found in the motor function recovery level after the comprehensive rehabilitation management. 4. The correlation between the elements of the cognitive performance and the motor recovery was found to be high in orientation, attention, calculation, and language. Those elements were expected to give larger effects on motor recovery after the comprehensive rehabilitation management. Based on this study, the cognitive performance level was found to play an important role in bringing effects on motor recovery after the comprehensive rehabilitation management of stroke patients. And the evaluation on the motor recovery based on quality would be also expected to be examined, as well as the cognitive performance level test accompanied by Intelligence Quality(IQ) test.

This paper investigates what informal knowledge and strategies fifth-grade students brought to a classroom and how much they had potential to solve fraction division story problems. The findings show that most of the participants were engaged to understand the meaning of fraction division prior to their formal instruction at school. In order to solve the story problems, the informal knowledge related to fractions as well as division was actively utilized in student's strategies and justification. Students also used various informal strategies from mental calculation, direct modeling, to relational thinking. Formal instructions about fraction division at schools can be facilitated for sense-making of this complex fraction division conception by unpacking informal knowledge and thinking they might bring to the classrooms.

Objectives:Donepezil is a widely used drug for the treatment of patients with Alzheimer's disease(AD). The aim of the present study was to clarify the efficacy and the characteristics of responders to donepezil. Methods:Patients with probable AD(n=80;75.7 years) and small vessel dementia(SVD)(n=18;77.8 years) who received donepezil were retrospectively analyzed using Alzheimer's registry, and three questions were asked:1) Does donepezil therapy improves cognitive symptoms in patients with dementia? 2) If donepezil improves cognitive symptoms, which items of the K-MMSE are improved? 3) What are the characteristics of responder to donepezil medication? Results:1) After donepezil medication, cognitive function measured by the K-MMSE was significantly improved in both types of dementia(AD and SVD), However, statistical differences were not found between these groups. 2) In a clinical trial of donepezil, the patients performed better than before mediation on K-MMSE items assessing orientation, recall, construction, concentration, calculation. 3) In AD, the K-MMSE score before medication was closely related with response of donepezil. Conclusion:This study suggests that donepezil improves various cognitive functions in both types of dementia, and the responsive group had significantly lower K-MMSE scores than the non-responsive group before medication.
