  • Multiple Nominative Constructions (MNCs) and Multiple Accusative Constructions (MACs) have been some of the hottest and interesting topics in Korean syntax. This paper took empirical approaches to these constructions and examined native speakers' grammaticality judgements of these constructions. Though there are lots of previous studies on these constructions, Ryu (2010, 2013a, 2013b, 2013c) recently tried to unify MNCs and MACs into Multiple Case Constructions (MCCs) and to classify them into 16 types based on the semantic relations. This paper includes experiments which were performed on these 16 different types. The experiments were designed following Johnson (2008); and the native speakers' intuition was measured with two scales, numerical estimates and line drawing, though the latter was adopted in the actual analyses. Through the experiment, the following facts were observed: (i) the grammaticality of the MCCs varies depending on their semantic relations, (ii) MNCs were more grammatical than MACs if both constructions occurred in similar environments, and (iii) the sentences in some MAC types had much lower grammaticality than those in the others, as Ryu (2013b, 2013c) mentioned.

  • A number of studies have evidenced the effect of modifiable lifestyle factors such as diet, breastfeeding and nutritional status on breast cancer risk. However, none have addressed the missing data problem in nutritional epidemiologic research in South America. Missing data is a frequent problem in breast cancer studies and epidemiological settings in general. Estimates of effect obtained from these studies may be biased, if no appropriate method for handling missing data is applied. We performed Multiple Imputation for missing values on covariates in a breast cancer case-control study of $C{\acute{o}}rdoba$ (Argentina) to optimize risk estimates. Data was obtained from a breast cancer case control study from 2008 to 2015 (318 cases, 526 controls). Complete case analysis and multiple imputation using chained equations were the methods applied to estimate the effects of a Traditional dietary pattern and other recognized factors associated with breast cancer. Physical activity and socioeconomic status were imputed. Logistic regression models were performed. When complete case analysis was performed only 31% of women were considered. Although a positive association of Traditional dietary pattern and breast cancer was observed from both approaches (complete case analysis OR=1.3, 95%CI=1.0-1.7; multiple imputation OR=1.4, 95%CI=1.2-1.7), effects of other covariates, like BMI and breastfeeding, were only identified when multiple imputation was considered. A Traditional dietary pattern, BMI and breastfeeding are associated with the occurrence of breast cancer in this Argentinean population when multiple imputation is appropriately performed. Multiple Imputation is suggested in Latin America's epidemiologic studies to optimize effect estimates in the future.

  • Complete-case analysis is easy to carry out and it may be fine with small amount of missing data. However, this method is not recommended in general because the estimates are usually biased and not efficient. There are numerous alternatives to complete-case analysis. A natural alternative procedure is available-case analysis. Available-case analysis uses all cases that contain the variables required for a specific task. The EM algorithm is a general approach for computing maximum likelihood estimates of parameters from incomplete data. These methods and multiple imputation(MI) are reviewed and the performances are compared by simulation studies in monotone missing pattern.

  • Multiple discrete Hilbert type inequalities are established in the case of non-homogeneous kernel function by means of Laplace integral representation of associated Dirichlet series. Using newly derived integral expressions for the Mordell-Tornheim Zeta function a set of subsequent special cases, interesting by themselves, are obtained as corollaries of the main inequality.

  • This study introduces CR-M-SpanBERT, a coreference resolution (CR) model that utilizes multiple embedding-based span bidirectional encoder representations from transformers, for antecedent recognition in natural language (NL) text. Information extraction studies aimed to extract knowledge from NL text autonomously and cost-effectively. However, the extracted information may not represent knowledge accurately owing to the presence of ambiguous entities. Therefore, we propose a CR model that identifies mentions referring to the same entity in NL text. In the case of CR, it is necessary to understand both the syntax and semantics of the NL text simultaneously. Therefore, multiple embeddings are generated for CR, which can include syntactic and semantic information for each word. We evaluate the effectiveness of CR-M-SpanBERT by comparing it to a model that uses SpanBERT as the language model in CR studies. The results demonstrate that our proposed deep neural network model achieves high-recognition accuracy for extracting antecedents from NL text. Additionally, it requires fewer epochs to achieve an average F1 accuracy greater than 75% compared with the conventional SpanBERT approach.

  • Extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP) is a rare disorder that typically occurs in the upper airway. Although the condition rarely arises in the lungs, a few cases have been reported. Here, we report a case of pulmonary plasmacytoma in 66-year-old man, who had been treated with VAD (vincrestine, adriamycin, dexamethasone) chemotherapy for multiple myeloma. The patient had been declared clear of multiple myeloma after 4 cycles of chemotherapy. Three months later, the patient had multiple masses visible on computed tomography (CT) and on positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) with hot uptake. Subsequent studies using CT-guided needle biopsy and immunohistochemical stain showed pulmonary plasmacytoma. Bone marrow biopsy, serum, and urine M protein tests were repeated, showing no evidence of multiple myeloma. Pulmonary plasmacytomas, as extramedullary plasmacytomas, were considered an isolated manifestation of multiple myeloma recurrence. We treated the patient with concurrent chemoradiotherapy and the pulmonary plasmacytomas regressed dramatically.

  • In this second part of series report on evidence-based dentistry, the level of evidence and the methods for critical appraisal are discussed. The epidemiologic studies, namely clinical studies have some bias per se, and the degree of bias is somewhat predetermined by the study design. The level of evidence can be defined as the reliability of the clinical study and it is dependent on the degree of bias. Thus, it is important to determine the type of the study and to understand its structure before critically appraising them. Systematic reviews of primary studies, randomized controlled trials, nonrandomized clinical trials, cohort studies, case-control studies, and case reports / series constitute the clinical studies and the level of evidence follows the order of the studies listed above. Critical appraisal is the most important procedure in evidence-based dentistry. It is done to determine the credibility of research papers and their usefulness in the clinician s own practice. Critical appraisal is consisted of multiple questions that are helpful for evaluating validity and usefulness of the studies concerning therapy, diagnosis, prognosis, and causation.
