In this paper, the long-term hemispheric variation of the polar faculae is investigated. It is found that, (1) both the N-S asymmetry and N-S asynchrony of the polar faculae exhibit a long-term persistence, which suggests that they should not be regarded as a stochastic phenomenon; (2) both the N-S asynchrony and N-S asymmetry of the polar faculae are functions of the latitude, implying that the N-S asynchrony of the polar faculae is related to the N-S asymmetry of the polar faculae; (3) from a long-term view, the dominant hemisphere of the polar faculae seems to have close connection with the phase-leading hemisphere of the polar faculae.

태양주기 23의 태양흑점과 코로나질량방출(Coronal Mass Ejection, CME), 지자기폭풍과의 상호 연관성을 알아보기 위해 CME의 연도별 발생빈도 분포와 북-남 비대칭 분포, 태양흑점수와 면적의 연평균 분포와 북-남 비대칭 분포, 지자기폭풍의 연도별 발생빈도 분포와의 상호 상관관계를 알아보았다. 1996년부터 2007년까지의 SOHO/LASCO 목록 CME의 위치정보를 이용하여 북쪽 반구에서 발생한 CME와 남쪽 반구에서 발생한 CME의 연도별 발생빈도 분포를 알아내었다. 태양흑점수와 면적을 북쪽 반구와 남쪽 반구를 구분하여 그 연평균 분포를 구하였고 지자기 교란정도를 알 수 있는 Ap지수, Dst지수, aa지수를 이용하여 지자기폭풍의 연도별 발생빈도 분포를 구하였다. 이렇게 구한 각각의 분포간의 상호 상관관계를 구하였다. 또한 CME를 각 너비(Angular Width)와 속도(Linear Speed)에 따라 분류하여 흑점 분포, 지자기폭풍의 발생빈도 분포와 상관관계도 알아보았다. 그 결과 CME의 전체 발생빈도는 흑점수와 면적의 전체 분포와의 상관관계가 높았고 흑점수와 면적의 북-남 비대칭 분포와는 상관관계가 낮았다. CME의 북-남 비대칭 분포는 흑점의 북-남 비대칭 분포와 상관관계가 높았다. CME와 지자기폭풍 발생빈도 분포와의 상관관계를 살펴 본 결과 CME 전체나 북-남 비대칭 분포와는 상관도가 낮게 나왔다. 그러나 CME를 규모별로 나누어 그 총 발생빈도와의 상관관계를 알아 본 결과 Ap지수와 aa지수는 속도가 빠른 경우, Dst지수는 각너비나 속도별로 나눈 모든 경우에 상관도가 높게 나왔다. 흑점과 지자기폭풍 발생빈도의 경우 흑점수와 면적의 전체 분포와 지자기폭풍 사이의 상관관계가 높게 나타났다. 이 결과를 통해 CME의 발생빈도 분포는 흑점의 분포와 연관성이 높고 이 둘의 전체 분포와 지자기폭풍의 발생빈도 분포와의 연관성이 높은 것을 알 수 있다. 그리고 CME, 흑점의 북-남 비대칭 분포와 지자기폭풍의 발생빈도 분포의 경우 연관성이 낮은 것을 알 수 있다.

Frontal (F3, F4) EEG responses were analyzed and compared during exposure too slides of International Affective Picture System (IAPS) in the study on 42 students. EEG responses during 20 s of exposure to slides intended to elicit happiness (nurturant and erotic), sadness, disgust, surprise, fear or anger emotions were quite similar and were exhibited in theta increase, alpha-blocking and increased beta activity, and frontal asymmetry. However, particular emotions demonstrated variations of the EEG response profiles, enabling to differentiate some pairs of emotions. The profiles showed higher magnitudes of EEG responses in exciting (i.e., erotic happiness) emotion. The most different pairs were exciting -sadness (theta, alpha and alpha asymmetry), exciting-surprise (theta, alpha asymmetry), and exciting-fear (theta, F3 alpha, alpha asymmetry). Nurturant happiness yielded the least differentiation. Differences were found as well within negative emotions, e.g., anger-sadness were differentiated by theta asymmetry, while disgust-fear by beta asymmetry. Obtained results suggest that magnitudes of profiles of EEG variables differentiate emotions elicited by affective pictures.

Cardiac, respiratory, electrodermal and frontal (F3, F4) EEG responses were analyzed and compared during to slides of International Affective Picture System (IAPS) in the study on 42 students. Physiological responses during 20s of exposure to slides intended to elicit happiness (nurturant and erotic), sadness, disgust, surprise, fear or anger emotions were quite similar and were expressed in heart rate (HR) deceleration, decreased HR variability (HRV), specific SCR, increased non-specific SCR frequency (N-SCR), and EEG changes exhibited in theta increase, alpha-blocking and increased beta activity, and frontal asymmetry. However, some emotions demonstrated variations of the response magnitudes, enabling to differentiate some paris of emotions by several physiological parameters. The profiles showed higher magnitudes of HRV and EEG responses in exciting (i.e., erotic) and higher cardiac and respiratory responses in surprise. The most different pairs were exciting-surprise (by HR, HRV, theta, and alpha asymmetry), exciting-sadness (by theta, alpha, and alpha asymmetry), and exciting-fear (by HRV, theta, F3 alpha, and alpha asymmetry). Nurturant happiness yielded the least differentiation. Differences were found as well within negative emotions, e.g., anger-sadness were differentiated by HRV and theta asymmetry, while disgust-fear by N-SCR and beta asymmetry. Obtained results suggest that magnitudes of profiles of physiological variables differentiate emotions evoked by affective pictures, despite that the patterns of most responses were featured by qualitative similarity in given passive viewing context.

Background: The purpose of this study is to compare the skeletal stability of two-jaw surgery via surgery-first approach with conventional two-jaw surgery in facial asymmetry patients by measuring the skeletal changes after surgery from a three-dimensional analysis. From January 2010 to January 2014, 40 patients with facial asymmetry who underwent two-jaw surgery in Pusan National University Hospital were included in this study. They were classified into experimental group (n = 20) who underwent two-jaw surgery via surgery-first approach and control group (n = 20) who underwent conventional two-jaw surgery. After selection of 24 landmarks and the construction of horizontal and sagittal, coronal reference planes, changes in 10 linear measurements and 2 angular measurements were compared between the surgery-first approach and conventional groups in the preoperative, immediate postoperative, and postoperative periods. The paired t test and Student t test were used for statistical analysis. The mean and standard deviation of the measurement were calculated for the experimental and control groups. Results: The statistical analysis showed that changes in skeletal measurements were similar between the surgery-first approach and conventional groups, according to each period. However, U1-SRP measurement showed statistically significant changes in surgery-first approach groups at postsurgical change (T1 to T2). Also, the mean treatment duration in the treatment group was 15.9 ± 5.48 months whereas that in the control group was 32.9 ± 14.05 months. Conclusion: In facial asymmetry patients, similar results were observed in the postoperative skeletal stability when 2-jaw surgery via surgery-first approach was compared with conventional 2-jaw surgery. However, significant lateral deviation of upper incisor midline was observed. In addition, a shorter average treatment duration was observed. To stabilize the unstable occlusion after surgery, increased wearing of the stent and proactive rubber guidance will be needed.

The underlying changes in biological processes that are associated with reported changes in mental and physical health in response to yoga breathing ($pr{\bar{a}}n{\bar{a}}y{\bar{a}}ma$) have not been systematically explored yet. In this study, the effects of a yoga breathing program on prefrontal EEG were tested with middle-aged women. Participants were collected as volunteers and controlled into two groups. Two channel EEG was recorded in the prefrontal region (Fp1, Fp2) from the yoga breathing group (n=17) and control group (n=17). QEEG quotients were transformed from the EEGs and analyzed by the ANOVAs on gain scores. As a result, ${\alpha}/{\delta}$ (left, right) and CQ (correlation quotient) for yoga breathing participants were significantly decreased compared to control group (p<.05). ${\alpha}/{\beta}_H+{\alpha}/{\delta}$ (left, right) were increased significantly (p<.05). For those significantly changed QEEG quotients, the interaction effects of Group x prefrontal alpha (${\alpha}$) and beta (${\beta}$) asymmetry were tested. Only the ${\alpha}$ asymmetry showed main effect on the gain score of ${\alpha}/{\beta}_H+{\alpha}/{\delta}$ (right) with F (1, 34)＝5.694 (p<.05). Pearson's correlation coefficient between ${\alpha}$ asymmetry and gain score of ${\alpha}/{\beta}_H+{\alpha}/{\delta}$ (right) was .374 (p<.05). The gain score of ${\alpha}/{\beta}_H+{\alpha}/{\delta}$ (right) was increased for the right ${\alpha}$ dominance of yoga breathing group. On the contrary it was decreased for the left ${\alpha}$ dominance of yoga breathing group as well as the control regardless of the dominance. The result of this study implies that yoga breathing increases stress resistance and is effective in the management of physical stress. Emotionally relaxed people may have greater instantaneous stress reduction after yoga breathing. Moreover, yoga breathing could be also beneficial for depressed who may be more vulnerable to stress.

Selective quenching of 1, 6-diphenyl-1, 3, 5-hexatriene (DPH) by trinitrophenyl groups was utilized to examine the transbilayer fluidity asymmetry of model membranes of phospholipids (SPMVPL) extracted from synaptosomal plasma membrane vesicles (SPMV). The polarization (P), anisotropy (r), limiting anisotropy $(r_\infty$), and order parameter (S) of DPH in the inner monolayer were 0.019, 0.014, 0.018, and 0.047, respectively, greater than calculated for the outer monolayer of SPMVPL. Selective quenching of DPH by trinitrophenyl groups was also utilized to examine the effects of n-alkanols on the individual monolayer structure of SPMVPL. n-Alkanols fluidized the hydrocarbon region of bulk SPMVPL and the potencies of n-alkanols up to 1-nonanon increased with carbon chain length. It appears that the potencies in bilayer fluidization increase by 1 order of magnitude as the carbon chain length increases by two carbon atoms. The cut-off phenomenon was reached at 1-decanol, where further increase in hydrocarbon length resulted in a decrease in pharmacological activity. The n-alkanols had greater fluidizing effects on the outer monolayer as compared to the inner monolayer of SPMVPL, even though these selective effects tended to become weaker as the carbon chain length increased. Thus, it has been proven that n-alkanols exhibit selective rather than nonselective fludizing effects within transbilayer domains of SPMVPL.

GABA antagonist인 SR 95531이 닭의 pretectum nuclei (nucleus Superficialis Synencephali nSS) 또는 nBOR (nucleus Ectomammilaris nEM)속에 미량 주입되었다. 단안의 optokinetic nystagmus는 한쪽 뇌의 내부에 약품을 주입하기 전후에 탐색 코일 테크닉에 의해서 기록되었다. 한쪽 nSS 또는 nEM 속에 SR 95531를 미량 주입하면 자극의 양방향에 대하여 반대쪽 눈에 의해서 유도된 단안의 OKN속도 게인이 가역적으로 증가하였다. 이때 nSS속에 주입하면 N-T 성분의 속도 게인보다 T-N 성분의 속도 게인을 더욱 강하게 증가시킴으로써 방향적 불균형성이 더욱 증가되었다. 한편 nEM 속에 약품을 주입하게 되면 T-N 성분의 속도 게인보다 N-T 성분의 속조 게인이 더욱 강하게 증가함으로써 방향적 불균형성을 제거했다. 이것으로부터 우리는 nSS 특히 N-T 자극에 방응에 단안의 OKN이 관련되어 있고, nEM은 N-T 자극에 대한 OKN 반응에 더욱 관련되어 있는 것으로 유추할 수 있었다. 이 결과는 그 약품이 중뇌 수준에서 OKN에 관련된 GABAergic 메카니즘의 억제작용을 제거한다는 것을 암시한다. 미량 주입된 핵에 대하여 같은쪽 눈에 의해서 유도된 OKN의 게인의 증가는 수평적 OKN에 관련된 이들 중뇌 구조들 사이에 강한 상호작용이 존재한다는 것으로 설명된다.

우울증이나 불안과 같은 정서적 특성이나 BIS/BAS 같은 행동성향 특성과 관련하여 전전두엽에서 뇌파 비대칭 연구는 주로 알파(${\alpha}$)파를 중심으로 이루어져 왔다. 하지만 알파(${\alpha}$)파 만으로 이러한 특성을 구분하는 것에 대한 한계점이 제기 되면서 베타(${\beta}$)파와 같은 다른 밴드를 중심으로 한 연구의 필요성이 제기되고 있다. 이에 따라 본 연구는 만4세 유아 44명을 대상으로 전전두엽에서 뇌파를 측정하여 알파(${\alpha}$)파 비대칭성과 베타(${\beta}$)파 비대칭성을 독립적으로 분리하여 BIS/BAS적 경향성과 비교 분석하였고, 이들 세 가지 특성을 조합하여 유아의 정서와 행동 성향을 8가지로 구분하는 방법을 제시하였다. 연구결과 N의 계수해석으로 BIS적 특성은 베타(${\beta}$)파 비대칭으로, BAS적 특성은 알파(${\alpha}$)파 비대칭 특성으로 판별하는 것이 확률적으로 높은 정확성을 보인다는 것을 발견하였다. 정서적 특성은 기존의 연구 결과와 같이 알파(${\alpha}$)파 비대칭으로 판단하였다. 이것은 뇌 발달 과정에서 만 4세 유아의 시냅스 형성이 좌뇌가 우뇌보다 활발하다는 연구 결과와 일치하는 것으로 판단된다.

한국산 2년생 소의 대뇌피질로부터 synaptosomal plasma membrane vesicles(SPMV)를 분리한 후 이 SPMV로부터 추출한 총지질로서 인공세포막(SPMVTL)을 제제하였다. SPMVTL의 outer monolayer에 trinitrophenyl group을 공유결합시킴으로써 SPMVTL이중층에 분포된 형광 probe 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene(DPH)중 outer monolayer에 분포된 DPH형광만을 소광케 하였다. 형광분석기를 통하여 SPMVTL의 inner monolayer에 비하여 outer monolayer의 유동성이 크다는 것을 확인하였다. n-Alkanols는 SPMVTL지질 이중층(inner+outer monolayers)의 회전확산운동을 증가시키되 탄소수 두개가 증가될 때마다 그 효력이 약10배 가량 증가된다는 것을 알았다. 그러나 1-decanol의 경우에는 1-nonanol에 비하여 그 효력이 낮아지는 소위 cut-off현상이 나타났다. 뿐만 아니라 n-alkanols는 SPMVTL의 inner monolayer에 비하여 outer monolayer의 회전확산운동을 주로 증가시켰다. 하지만 n-alkanols의 탄소수가 증가됨에 따라 outer monolayer에 대한 선택적인 작용이 감소된다는 것도 확인되었다.
