유동근무제는 고정된 시간대에만 근무하지 않고 조직과 종업원의 협의에 의하여 근무시간대를 유연하게 조절하는 제도를 의미한다. 대부분의 선행연구에서는 유동근무제가 성과나 생산성, 조직에 대한 태도, 결근율 및 이직률에 미치는 영향을 밝히는데 그 초점을 맞추었으나, 한국의 대부분 기업들이 아직 이 제도를 채택하지 않기 때문에 본 연구는 서울에 주소지를 둔 유통업체에 종사하는 노동자들을 대상으로 현장조사를 실시하여 노동자들의 개인적 특성이 유동근무제의 선호성향에 미치는 영향을 분석함으로써 제도도입을 위한 이론적 틀을 제공하는데 그 목적을 두고 있다. 본 연구의 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 노동자들의 연령은 유동근무제의 선호성향에 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 다만 통계적으로 유의하지는 않았지만 36세 이상의 노동자들은 35세 미만의 노동자들에 비해 선호성향이 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 남성의 선호성향이 여성보다 더 높게 나타났는데, 이것 역시 유동근무제는 자기개발과 직장생활을 공존하게 할 수 있어 아무래도 자기개발에 관심이 적은 여성보다는 남성들의 태도가 더 호의적인 것으로 분석되고 있다. 통제의 위치와 유동근무제에 대한 선호성향은 약한 상관관계가 존재하는 것으로 나타났는데 이것은 내적 통제를 지향하는 노동자일수록 유동근무제에 대해 호의적인 태도를 갖고 있음을 의미한다. 성취욕구가 높은 노동자일수록 유동근무제에 대해 호의적인 태도를 보여줬다. 성취욕구가 높은 사람들은 새로운 제도를 도입하는데 있어서 과감하게 도전을 하기 때문으로 보인다. 직무만족과 유동근무제의 선호성향과는 유의한 관련성을 나타내고 있지 않았다. 끝으로 본 연구의 한계를 제시하고 향후 연구의 방향을 제시한다.

The Community Health Service considers the family as a service unit and places the emphasis of its service on the health problems and the nursing needs of the family rather than the individual. From the conceptual point of view that tile community health service is both health maintenance and health promotion of the family, the community health nurse should have a knowledge of the growth and development of the family and be responsible for the comprehensive support of normal family development. The community health nurse often is in a position to make a real contribution to normal family development. In order to investigate the relationship between the areas of nursing need and family development, the following objectives were established 1. To discover the general characteristics of the study population by the stage of family development. 2. To discover specific nursing needs in relation to the family developmental stage, and to determine the intensity of the nursing needs and the ability of the family to cope with these needs. 3. To discover overall family health nursing problems in relation to the family developmental stage and determine the intensity of the nursing need and the problem solving ability of family. Definitions : The family developmental stages as classified by Dually were used stage 1. Married couples(without children) stage 2. Childbearing Families (oldest child birth to 30 months of age) stage 3. Families with preschool children (oldest child 2½-to 6 years) stage 4. Families with schoolchildren (oldest child 6 to 13 years). stage 5. Families with teenagers (oldest child 13 to 20 years) stage 6. Families as launching centers (first child gone to last child′s leaving home). stage 7. Middle- aged parents (empty nest to retirement) stage 8. Aging family member (retirement to death of both spouses) The areas of nursing need were defined as those used in the study, "A Comprehensive Study about Health and Nursing Need and a Social Diagram of the Community", by tile Nursing research Institute and Center for population. and Family Planning, July 1974. The study population defiled and selected were 260 nuclear families ill two myron of Kang Hwa Island. Percent, mean value and F- test were utilized in tile statistical analysis of the study result. Findings : 1. General characteristics of the study population by tile family developmental stage ; 1)The study population was distributed by the family developmental stage as follows : stage 1 : 3 families stage 2 : 13 families stage 3 : 24 families stage 4 : 41 families stage 5 : 50 families stage 6 : 106 families stage 7 : 13 families stage 8 : 10 families 2) Most families had 4 or 5 members except for those in stage, 1, 7, and 8. 3) The parents′ present age was older in the higher developmental stage and their age at marriage was also younger in the higher developmental stages. 4) The educational level of parents was primarily less than elementary school irrespective of the developmental stage. 5) More than half of parents′ occupations were listed as laborers irrespective of the developmental stage, 6) More than half of the parents were atheists irrespective of the developmental stage. 7) The higher the developmental stage(from stage 2 to stage 6 ), the wider the distribution of children′s ages. 8) More than half of the families were of middle or lower socio-economic level. 2. Problems in specific areas of nursing need by family developmental stage, the intensity of nursing need and the problem solving ability of the family : 1) As a whole, many problems, irrespective of the developmental stage, occurred in tile areas of Housing and Sanitation, Eating Patterns, Housekeeping, Preventive Measures and Dental care. Problems occurring ill particular stages included the following ; stage 1 : Prevention of Accident stage 2 : Preventive Vaccination, Family Planning. stage 3 : Preventive Vaccination, Maternal Health, Family Planning, Health of Infant and Preschooler. stage 4, 5 : Preventive Vaccination, Family Planning, Health of School Children. stage 6 : Preventive Vaccination, Health of School Children. 2) The intensity of the nursing need in the area of Acute and Chronic Diseases was generally of moderate degree or above irrespective of the developmental stages except for stage 1. Other areas of need listed as moderate or above were found in the following stages: stage 1 : Maternal Health stage 3 . Horsing and Sanitation, Prevention of Accident. stage 4 . Housing and Sanitation. stage 5 : Housing and Sanitation, Diagnostic and Medical Care. stage 6 : Diagnostic and Medical care stage 7 : Diagnostic and Medical Care, Housekeeping. stage 8 : Housing and Sanitation, Prevention of Accident, Diagnostic and Medical Care, Dental Care, Eating Patterns, Housekeeping. 3) Areas of need with moderate problem solving ability or less were as follows : stage 1 : Diagnostic and Medical Care, Maternal Health. stage 2 : Prevention of Accident, Acute and Chronic Disease, Dental Care. stage 3 : Housing and Sanitation, Acute and Chronic Disease, Diagnostic and Medical Care, Preventive Measure, Dental Care, Maternal Health, Health of Infant and preschooler, Eating Patterns. stage 4 : Housing and Sanitation, Prevention of Accident, Diagnostic and Medical Care, Preventive Measure, Dental Care, Maternal Health, Health of New Born, Health of Infant and Preschooler, Health of school Children, Eating Patterns, Housekeeping. stage 5 . Housing and Sanitation, Prevention of Accident, Acute and Chronic Disease, Diagnostic and Medical Care, Preventive Measure, Dental Care, Preventive Vaccination, Maternal Health, Eating Patterns. stage 7, 8 : Housing and Sanitation, Prevention of Accident, Acute and Chronic Disease, Diagnostic and Medical Care, Preventive Measures, Dental Care, Preventive Vaccination, Eating Patterns , Housekeeping. Problem occurrence, the degree of nursing need and the degree of problem solving ability 1 nursing need areas for the family as a whole were as follows : 1) The higher the stages(except stage 1 ), the lower the rate of problem occurrence. 2) The higher the stage becomes, the lower the intensity of the nursing need becomes. 3) The higher the stages (except stages 7 and 8), the higher. the problem solving ability. Conclusions ; 1) When the nursing care plan for the family is drawn up, depending upon the stage of family development, higher priority should be give to nursing need areas ① at which problems were shown to occur ② where the nursing need is shown to be above moderate degree and ③ where the problem solving ability was shown to be of moderate degree. 2) The priority of the nursing service should be Placed ① not on those families in the high developmental stage but on those families in the low developmental stage ② and on those areas of need shown in stages 7 and 8 where the degree nursing need was high and the ability to cope low.

심근관류 스캔에서 부하영상에 비해 휴식영상에서 오히려 심근관류가 감소되어 보이는 현상을 역재분포라고 하며, 심근관류 스캔시 드물지 않게 관찰되나 아직 이 현상의 기전이나 의미는 확실히 밝혀진 바 없다. 이에 저자들은 디피리다몰부하 T1-201 및 Tc-99m MIBI 심근관류 SPECT에서 역재분포현상의 존재 유무를 알아보고, 또 이 현상이 어떤 경우에 나오는지 그 내용을 파악하기 위하여 1992년 9월부터 1994년 1월까지 전남대학교병원 핵의학과에서 시행하였던 심근관류 SPECT를 시행한 1462명을 대상으로 본 연구를 시행하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1) 대상환자 1462명중 168명(11.5%)에서 역재분포를 보였으며, T1-201을 사용한 환자는 463명 중 44명(9.5%), Tc-99m MIBI를 사용한 환자는 999명 중124명(12.4%)에서 역재분포를 보였다. T1-201 및 Tc-99m MIBI를 사용한 양군간에 역재분포 빈도수는 통계학적 유의한 차이는 없었다(p>0.05). 2) 심근관류 SPECT상 역재분포를 보였던 168명 중 관동맥조영술로 확진된 65명(T1-201 21예, Tc-99m MIBI 44예)을 질환별 분류를 하였다. T1-201과 Tc-99m MIBI를 사용한 모든 환자에서 재혈관화후 (53.9%), 관동맥질환(24.6%, 재혈관화후 및 심근경색 제외), 심근경색(12.3%) 그리고 정상 관동맥(9.2%) 순으로 관찰되었으며, T1-201 및 Tc-99m MIBI 양군간에 질병양상에 따른 통계학적 유의한 차이는 없었다. 3) 역재분포를 보인 부위를 좌심실 전벽, 중격, 하벽, 측벽 및 심첨부로 나누어 분석해 보면, 중격 32(39.5%), 하벽 24(29.6%), 전벽 12(14.8%), 심첨부 7(8.7%), 그리고 측벽 6(7.4%)의 순으로 나타났다. 4) 관동맥협착의 정도와 역재분포 빈도와의 상관관계를 알아보기 위하여, 역재분포를 보인 부위와 관련된 관동맥분지 30개를 협착정도별로 분류하였다. 협착의 정도와 역재분포의 빈도와는 상관관계를 보이지 않았으며, T1-201과 Tc-99m MIBI군 사이에도 분포의 차이가 없었다. 역재분포를 보인 부위와 관련된 관동맥 분지별로 보면 좌전하행동맥이 18예로 가장 많았고, 다음 이 우관동맥(10예), 좌회선동맥(4예)순이었다. 5) 역재분포를 보인 환자중 좌심실의 벽운동성을 관찰할 수 있었던 27명의 환자 중 12명은 정상벽운동, 12명은 저운동, 그리고 3명에서 이운동 소견을 보였다. 6) 역재분포를 보인 부위에 측부혈행 유무를 관찰 할 수 있었던 30예 중 측부혈행이 있었던 예는 4예에 불과하였다. 7) T1-201 심근관류 SPECT시 휴식기 T1-201 재주사를 시행한 14예 중 재주사에 의해 역재분포 부위에 섭취 증가를 보인 예는 10예였다. 결론적으로, 역재분포는 여러가지 병태생리적인 기전에 의해 나타날 수 있는 소견으로 보이며, 그 임상적 의의는 심근관류검사를 시행한 환자의 병력에 따라 판단하여야 할 것으로 사료되었다.

We investigated what factors motivate gamers to participate in a guild and why they continue to be engaged as members of the guild. We find that, based on the result of focus group interviews with MMORPG gamers, social support and self-esteem factors play important roles. Considering both prior research and the focus group interviews we have conducted, we define social support and character control as independent variables. Character identity, guild identity, and self-esteem are proposed as mediating variables while guild flow and game loyalty as dependent variables. Accordingly, we develop the research model and hypotheses, and verify them empirically. Based on our experiences of playing the WoW game, we proposed a research model and conducted focus-group interviews (FGIs). FGIs involve formulating a hypothesis and then collecting some relevant data. FGIs were conducted face-to-face with students of C University in Korea. We formulated structured interview schedules, and the questions were based on our research variables and personal experiences. The questions for the interviews encompassed the following areas: (a) the demographic characteristics of the focus group; (b) the number of years for which respondents had played online games; (c) the motive for starting a game; (d) the number of game-characters assumed by each gamer; (e) the type of game played; and (f) other issues such as the reasons for involvement in the play, the willingness to reuse the game in case new versions were released, etc. On average, it took two hours to interview each of three groups. A primary set of FGIs was conducted with three groups on the premise that there would be some differences caused by character race (Horde vs. Alliance) or by playable server (Normal vs. Combat). With respect to the manner of playing, we found that guild members shared information, felt a sense of belonging, and played computer games for quite a long time through the guild; however, they did not undergo these experiences when playing alone. Gamers who belonged to a specific guild helped other players without expecting compensation for that, freely shared information about the game, gave away items for free, and more generous with other members who made mistakes. The guild members were aware of the existence other members and experienced a sense of belonging through interactions with, and evaluations from, other players. It was clear that social support was shown within the guild and that it played an important role as a major research variable. Based on the results of the first FGIs, a second set of in-depth FGIs was carried out with a focus on the psychology of the individual within the guild and the social community of the guild. The second set of FGIs also focused on the guild's offline meetings. Gamers, over all, recognize the necessity of joining a community, not only off-line but also online world of the guild. They admit that the guild is important for them to easily and conveniently enjoy playing online computer games. The active behavior and positive attitudes of existing guild members can motivate new members of the guild to adapt themselves to the guild environment. They then adopt the same behaviors and attitudes of established guild members. In this manner, the new members of the guild strengthen the bonds with other gamers while feeling a sense of belonging, and developing social identity, thereby. It was discovered that the interaction among guild members and the social support encouraged new gamers to quickly develop a sense of social identity and increase their self-esteem. The guild seemed to play the role of socializing gamers. Sometimes, even in the real world, the guild members helped one another; therefore, the features of the guild also spilled over to the offline environment. We intend to use self-esteem, which was found through the second set of FGIs, as an important research variable. To collect data, an online survey was designed with a questionnaire to be completed by WoW gamers, who belong to a guild. The survey was registered on the best three domestic game-sites: 'WoW playforum,' 'WoW gamemeca,' and 'Wow invent.' The selected items to be measured in the questionnaire were decided based on prior research and data from FGIs. To verify the content of the questionnaire, we carried out a pilot test with the same participants to point out ambiguous questions as a way to ensure maximum accuracy of the survey result. A total of 244 responses were analyzed from the 250 completed questionnaires. The SEM analysis was used to test goodness-of-fit of the model. As a result, we found important results as follows: First, according to the statistics, social support had statistically significant impacts on character control, character identity, guild identity and self-esteem. Second, character control had significant effects on character identity, guild identity and self-esteem. Third, character identity shows its clear impact on self-esteem and game loyalty. Fourth, guild identity affected self-esteem, guild flow and game loyalty. Fifth, self-esteem had a positive influence on the guild flow. These days, the number of virtual community is rising along with its significance largely because of the nature of the online games. Accordingly, this study is designed to clarify the psychological relationship between gamers within the guild that has been generally established by gamers to play online games together. This study focuses on the relationships in which social support influences guild flow or game loyalty through character control, character identity, guild identity, and self-esteem, which are present within a guild in the MMORPG game environment. The study results are as follows. First, the effects of social support on character control, character identity, guild identity and self-esteem are proven to be statistically significant. It was found that character control improves character identity, guild identity and self-esteem. Among the seven variables, social support, which is derived from FGIs, plays an important role in this study. With the active support of other guild members, gamers can improve their ability to develop good characters and to control them. Second, character identity has a positive effect on self-esteem and game loyalty, while guild identity has a significant effect on self-esteem, guild flow and game loyalty. Self-esteem affects guild flow. It was found that the higher the character and guild identities become, the greater the self-esteem is established. Contrary to the findings of prior research, our study results indicate that the relationship between character identity and guild flow is not significant. Rather, it was found that character identity directly affects game players' loyalty. Even though the character identity had no direct effect on increasing guild flow, it has indirectly affected guild flow through self-esteem. The significant relationship between self-esteem and guild flow indicates that gamers achieve flow, i.e., a feeling of pleasure and excitement through social support. Several important implications of this study should be noted. First, both qualitative and quantitative methods were used to conduct this study. Through FGIs, it was observed that both social support and self-esteem are important variables. Second, because guilds had been rarely studied, this research is expected to play an important role in the online community. Third, according to the result, six hypotheses (H1, H5, H6, H7, H8, and H11) setup based on FGIs, were statistically significant; thus, we can suggest the corresponding relationships among the variables as a guideline for follow-up research. Our research is significant as it has following implications: first, the social support of the guild members is important when establishing character control, character identity, guildidentity and self-esteem. It is also a major variable that affects guild flow and game loyalty. Second, character control when improved by social support shows notable influence on the development of character identity, guild identity and self-esteem. Third, character identity and guild identity are major factors to help establish gamers' own self-esteem. Fourth, character identity affects guild flow through self-esteem and game loyalty. The gamers usually express themselves through characters; the higher character identity is, the more loyalty a gamer has. Fifth, guild identity, established within the guild, has clear effects on self-esteem, guild flow and game loyalty. Sixth, qualitative and quantitative methods are employed to conduct this study. Based on the results of focus group interviews and SEM analysis, we find that the social support by guild members and psychological factors are significant in strengthening the flow of guild and loyalty to the game. As such, game developers should provide some extra functions for guild community, through which gamers can play online games in collaboration with one another. Also, we suggest that positive self-esteem which is built up through social support can help gamers achieve higher level of flow and satisfaction, which will consequently contribute to minimizing the possibility for the players to develop negative attitude toward the guild they belong to.

The parents have much expectation upon the pregnancy and child birth, and in most cases, they expect the healthy parturient child. However, we can be placed on the high-risk conditions which have the physical, social and immature infant, due to the unexpected results, among the new-born. Accordingly, these high-risk newborn and premature infants will be mostly in NICU, which the concentrated medical treatment can be given, upon their conditions. After their birth and during these periods, they will be divided from the parents, and the nurse will accomplish the bringing-up activities which they can take care of the infant, expected by the parents after their birth. The hospitalization of high-risk newborn including these premature infants is the shocking experience to the parents of family, and thus they can feel the fear and uneasiness, and these reactions of parents are troubled in the behavior at the usual days, and cause the disorder and spiritless status, and these results break the supporting ability of parents, and cause the obstruction. Also, the unavoidable division between the parents and the children as like hospitalization of children can make the parents to feel the alienation emotionally, and this causes the results which the pride on the bringing-up ability of baby gets to be lost. These problems can cause the difficulties on the bonding or the parenting in the further days, and can be related to the neglect and abuse of children. Also, it is gradually increased to study and report which the emotional division by the physical division between the mother and the baby obstructs the normal affection course between the parent and the infant. The stress caused by the birth and the hospitalization of high-risk newborn, as like this, is important in the points which it can uncertainly affect the potential energy for the relationship of parent-child who are finally healthy. Accordingly, the significance and purpose of this study are to understand the contents and degree of stress which the parents of high-risk newborn including the immature child can be experienced from the hospitalization of ICU for their new borns, and thus to offer the basic program to the nursing intervention program for these. The subject of this study is the mother of newborn in NICU of 10 General Hospitals located at the 3one of Pusan, Korea from September 1997 to October 1997, and thus makes the subject of 95 person of parents who agreed to take part in the study and it is descriptive study related to the stress of mother having the newborn in NICU. The method is based on the preceding study related to the stress of mother having the experience of child hospitalization and chronic disease child, and then acquires the advice of specialists group as like 5 nursing professors, and then is amended and supplemented. Total number of questions is 43 items and consists of 5 factors as like medical treatment &nursing procedures, disease status & prognosis, role of parents, communication & inter-personal relationships, hospital environment, and is 5 point Likert Scale. The reliability of this study method is very highly shown to be Cronbach α=0.95. The collected data is analysed as Average, Frequency, Standard Deviation, T-test, ANOVA, Pearson Correlation Coefficient, Duncan multifulrange test by use of SPSS /PC (V7.5). The results of this study is summarized as under. 1. Every characteristics of subject is which the party of mother is 28.70age(±7.48) in the average ages, 51% in the high-school graduate, 38.5% in the christianity, total monthly income is 212.55 thousand won(±1.971), 74.5% in the housewife, 72.9% in the parents and children together living and the number of children to be 1.48person(± 0.6) in average, the recognition on the prognosis of baby is 74.0% in 'Don't know', the relationship with the husband after the hospitalization of babyis 37.3% in 'More Intimate', the relationship with the family of husband to be 48% in 'No-change', and the degree which is consulted with the husband about the baby is 55% in 'very frequently' and the visiting number per week is 4.59(±1.63) in average and the accompanying person in the time of visiting is which the number of husband is 56.3% and thus is the highest. The characteristics of baby is which the age is 21.88days(±16.47) after the birth in average, the sex to be 50 person in the female 52.1% and the order of birth to be 54.2% in the first chid, and the weight in the birth to be 2770gm(±610) and the height in the birth to be 46.26cm(±7.62) in aver age. The medical diagnosis is 37.5% in the premature infant, the career of hospitalization is 96.9% in 'None', and the operation plan is 90.6% in 'None' and the execution of operation is 88% in 'None' and the nursing of incubator is 55.2% in 'Yes', and the method of feeding is 50.5% in 'Oral' and the contents of feeding is 46.9% in the 'Milk'. 2. The total stress degree of subject is almost highly shown to be as 3.36(±0.86). If it is compared upon each cause, 'stress on disease status & prognosis' is highest 3.79(±1.28), and it is in the order of 'stress on medical treatment & nursing procedures' 3.70(±0.93), 'stress on hospital environment' 3.14(±0.86), 'stress on role of parents' 3.18(±0.92) and 'stress on communication & inter personal relationship' 2.62(± 0.77) 3. As the results of checking the notworthiness of stress degree upon each variable of subject, the variable showing the noted difference was the birth weight(γ=-0.16, P=0.04), birth height(γ=-0.23, P=0.03), nursing in the incubator(F=8.93, P=0.04), feed method(F=2.94, P=0.04). That is to say, it is shown which the smaller the birth weight is, the higher the stress degree of mother is noteworthily. Also, the smaller the birth height baby is, the higher the stress of mother is. In the incubator, it os shown which the mother whose baby is nursing in the incubator is higher in the stress degree than other mothers. Upon the feeding method of baby, that is to say, TPNis the highest, and it is shown in the order of NPO, Tube feeding, and P.O. feeding. When we review the above-mentioned results, as the status is serious, it is thought which we include the supporting nursing for coping with the stress of parents in the setting-up od nursing plan for the baby in the NICU.

목 적 : 후방 십자 인대 손상의 치료로서 관절경적 후방 십자 인대 재건술을 시행하여 임상 결과를 분석하고자 하였으며, 특히 추시상 후방 불안정의 재발 여부와 자가 골-슬개건-골을 이용하여 재건한 경우 및 동종 이식물을 이용한 결과를 비교 분석하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 1994년 1월부터 1999년 5월까지 본원에서 수술 치료한 총 34례의 후방 십자 인대 손상의 환자 중에서 전외측 다발만을 관절경적으로 재건술을 시행하고 12개월 이상 최종 추시가 가능했던 25례 중 자가 반건양건을 이용한 1례를 제외한 24례를 대상으로 하였으며, 24례 중 자가 골-슬개건-골을 이용하여 재건한 경우를 제 I군(11례), 동종 아킬레스 건을 이용하여 재건한 경우를 제 II군(7례), 동종 골-슬개건-골을 이용하여 재건한 경우를 제 III군(6례)으로 하였다. 평가 방법은 24례 모두를 International Knee Documentation Committee(IKDC) knee ligament standard evaluation form, Lysholm knee scoring scale을 이용하여 세 집단을 비교하였으며 전 후방 안정도의 측정을 위해서 $KT-2000^{TM}$ knee ligament arthrometer MED metric, USA(KT-2000)를 사용하였다. Kruskal-Wallis test와 Mann-Whitney U(Wilcoxon Rank Sum) 검정법을 이용하여 세 집단을 비교 통계 분석하였다. 결과 : IKDC 최종 평가상 B(거의 정상)이상은 전체 24례 중 11례$(46\%)$로 만족스러운 결과는 아니었고, KT-2000으로 측정시 양측 비교하여 6mm 이상 차이가 나는 경우는 제 I군 4례$(36\%)$, 제 II군 2례$(29\%)$, 제 III군 2례$(33\%)$에서 후방 불안정성을 보였다. Lysholm knee scoring scale을 이용한 평가 결과는 제 I군이 평균 78점 (fair), 제 II군이 75점(fair), 제 III군이 76점(fair)이었다. 재료에 따른 각 군간의 객관적, 주관적 결과의 차이는 보이지 않았다. 결론 : 후방 십자 인대 손상시 불안정의 정도가 심하지 않은 단독 손상을 제외하고는 관절경적 재건술이 보편화 되는 추세이나, 보다 정확한 수술 술기와 동반 손상에 대한 치밀한 치료 계획이 요구되며, 새로운 시도와 그에 따른 많은 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

본 연구는 난각막 추출물 (NEM)이 골관절염 동물 모델에서 골관절염 유발 인자에 대한 예방과 개선에 미치는 영향을 조사하고자 실시하였다. 실험동물인 6주령의 랫드에 NEM을 골관절염 유발 2주전부터 농도별 (52 mg/kg, 200 mg/kg, 400 mg/kg)로 경구 투여하였으며, 2주간의 경구 투여 실시 후 정상군 (normal)을 제외한 대조군과 NEM 경구 투여군에게 3.0 mg/mL의 농도로 MIA를 주사하여 골관절염을 유발하였다. 골관절염 유발 후 4주간 경구 투여를 지속적으로 실시한 후 혈액 및 관절, 조직 등을 이용하여 골관절염 유발 인자들을 확인하였다. NO 생성량은 NEM 200, 400 (mg/kg)에서 유의성 있는 감소를 나타내었으며, $PGE_2$ 생성량은 모든 농도에서 유의성 있는 감소를 나타내었다. 사이토카인 IL-$1{\beta}$와 IL-6 생성량은 IL-$1{\beta}$에서는 모든 농도에서 유의성 있는 감소를 보였으나, IL-6에서는 400 mg/kg 농도에서만이 유의성 있는 감소를 나타내었다. hs-CRP 생성량은 모든 농도에서 대조군에 비하여 유의성 있는 감소를 나타내었으며, MMPs 생성량과 $LTB_4$ 생성량을 모든 농도에서 유의성 있는 감소를 나타내었다. 또한, COMP 및 CTX-II 검사를 통해 골관절염의 진행 억제에 유의성 있는 감소를 나타내었다. 마지막으로 관절과 연골을 micro-CT 및 조직 염색을 실시한 결과, NEM 경구 투여군은 연골량 및 관절 조직의 변형, 연골세포의 손상도가 대조군에 비하여 손상이 적었음을 확인할 수 있었다. 이상의 결과로 미루어 볼 때, NEM은 농도 의존적으로 골관절염 유발 인자를 감소시켜 관절 및 연골에 효능이 있음을 제시하고 있다. 이와 같은 결과는 NEM이 골관절염에 대한 예방과 개선 효과를 나타낼 수 있는 건강기능식품의 원료로 활용될 수 있을 것이라 사료된다.

하천 유량관측은 수자원의 관리를 위해 활용되는 기초적이고 대표적인 자료로 하천에서 정확한 유량을 관측하는 것은 중요하다. 따라서 최근에는 다양한 첨단 장비들이 개발되어 전통적인 하천의 유량관측을 대체하거나 보완하고 있다. 여러 최신 장비들 중 전자파표면유속계는 홍수기와 같이 하천에 접근하여 직접유량계측이 위험하고 정확도 확보가 어려울 경우전자파를 이용하여 비접촉식으로 유량을 계측하는 장비로 홍수기 및 평갈수기에도 하천 유량계측에 활용되기 시작하였다. 전자파표면유속계는 사용법이 간단하고 간접적으로 유속을 측정하기 때문에 기존의 직접측정 방법에 비해 안전한 장점이 있어 현재 국내에서는 홍수기 또는 접근이 어려운 하천의 유속 측정을 위해 사용되고 있다. 국내에서는 1993년 유량측정 장치 개발을 위해 전자파표면유속계(MWSCM; Microwave Water Surface Current Meter)를 개발을 연구를 수행하였고, 최근에는 국내에서 개발된 전자파표면유속계을 활용하여 유량측정을 위해 사용되고 있다. 하지만 국내에서 개발된 전자파표면유속계가 실제 하천에서 유속측정의 정확도에 대한 연구는 부족한 실정이다. 전자파표면유속계는 기기로부터 전자파를 이용해 유속을 측정하기 때문에 수직각과 편각과 같은 각도 변화에 따라 측정정확도가 바뀔 수 있고, 전자파표면유속계 본체에서 발사되는 전자파의 측정영역에 따라 유속측정에 오차가 발생할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내에서 개발 전자파표면유속계의 측정정확도를 분석하기 위해서 실제하천과 유사한 실규모 하천수로에서 수직각과 편각을 변화시키며 측정을 수행하여 수직각과 편각에 변화에 따른 유속측정 정확도를 분석하였다. 그리고 전자파표면유속계의 측정영역의 고려를 통해서 측정영역에 따른 유속측정결과를 분석하였다. 유속측정 결과를 통해서 수직각 15° 이하에서는 유속측정의 오차가 커지게 되는 것으로 나타났고, 편각이 커질수록 유속측정의 결과의 변동계수가 커지는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 편각에 따른 오차의 영향은 전자파표면유속계의 측정영역에 따라 결과가 달라지는 것으로 나타났다.

Backgrounds and Objectives: A fracture means a loss of continuity in the substance of bone. Bone differs from other musculoskeletal tissue due to its ability to repair and heal itself without leaving a scar. The cutter head has multinucleated osteoclast cells to resorb the dead bone. The tail, with its conical surface, is lined with osteoblast cells laying down new bone. The conjugation of fracture is a unique biological process regulated by a complex array of signaling molecules and proinflammatory cytokines. Pyritum, one of the important prescriptions in the oriental medicine, has been used for conjugation fracture. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of administration of Pyritum on activation of osteoblast cells in human body & on tibia bone fracture in mice. Materials and Methods : Four weeks aged 30 female DBA mice were used for this study. They were divided three groups, normal group, control group(fracture elicitate mice: FE group) and experimental group(Pyritum administered mice group after fracture elicitation : PA group). Left tibia bones of mice in FE and PA groups were fractured by bone cutters. MG-63 cells in human body th Pyritum in the ratio of 1 mg/m${\ell}$, and the cells were further incubated for 24 hours. Activation of osteoblast was identified using osteopontin, FGF in vitro test. In vivo test, regeneration of fractured tibia through the morphological changes was observed, and also activation of inflammation through NF-${\kappa}$B p65, iNOS, COX-2, osteoblast through osteopontin, FGF and osteoblast's proliferation in each group was measured. Results and Conclusions : 1. In vitro test for activation of osteoblast cells in human body by Pyritum, osteopontin and FGF production were remarkably increased in Pyritum treated MG-63 cells. 2. In regeneration of fractured tibia by Pyritum, fractured area in external tibia morphology was decreased more in the PA group than that of the FE group. Osteogenesis in fractured area was increased more in the PA group than that of the FE group. Also, endochodrial ossification in central area of fracture and osteoid in lateral area of fracture were increased more in the PA group than those of the FE group. 3. In activation of inflammation by Pyritum administered, activation of NF-${\kappa}$B p65, increase of iNOS and COX-2 production were higher in the PA and the FE groups than those of the control group. Especially, the PA group showed higher activation and increase than those of the FE group. 4. In activation of osteoblast by Pyritum, increase of osteopontin, FGF and osteoblast's proliferation were higher in the PA and the FE groups than those of the control group. Especially, the PA group showed higher increase and proliferation than those of the FE group.

악골에서 비교적 흔한 빈도로 발생하는 치아종은 치배조직의 과성장으로 인하여 발생한다. 세계보건기구에서는 치아종을 복잡 치아종과 복합 치아종으로 구분하고 있다. 치아종은 악골내 모든 부위에서 발생할 수 있지만 치아와 유사한 복합 치아종은 비교적 상악 전치부에 호발하고, 불규칙한 형태를 나타내는 복잡 치아종은 하악 구치부에 호발한다. 치아종의 원인은 정확히 알려져 있지 않으며 치배에 대한 국소적인 외상이나 감염이 주된 요인으로 추측되고 있고, 최근에는 유전적인 원인에 대해서도 연구되고 있으나 아직 확실히 입증되지는 않고 있다. 일반적인 증상이 없기 때문에 일상적인 방사선 검사에서 주로 발견되고 영구치의 맹출지연이나 유치의 만기잔존 등의 증상이 있을 수 있다. 치아종은 구강내의 어떤 부위에서도 발생이 가능하고 드물기는 하지만 상악동, 하악의 하연, 하악지 및 하악과두 하방에서 발견되기도 하며, 이공 부위에서 발생되는 경우도 있다. 치아종은 발육중인 치열과 악궁에 미치는 영향을 최소화하기 위하여 발견되는 즉시 낭포 및 주위 연조직을 함께 외과적으로 제거하는 것이 바람직하다. 환자의 연령과 치과치료에 대한 협조도, 영구치열의 발육상태, 치아종의 악골내 위치 및 동시적인 치과치료가 요구되는 가를 고려하여 외래 진료실에서 하는 경우도 있고 전신마취를 통하여 하는 경우도 있다. 본 증례는 치아종의 악골내 위치가 깊지 않고 치과치료에 대한 협조도가 양호하다고 판단되는 환아에서는 외래 진료실에서 국소마취하에 수술하여 치료하였고, 연령이 어리고 치아종의 악골내 위치가 깊어 장시간의 시술 시간이 요구되고 동시에 보존적인 치과치료가 필요한 환아에서는 전신마취하에 치료한 것을 보고한 것이다. 두 증례에서 수술 4개월 후 외과적 결손 부위에 골이 형성되었고, 매복된 영구치의 맹출이 정상적으로 이루어진 것으로 나타났다.
