Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a 12-week combined exercise program on gait parameters in elderly women with osteoarthritis. Method: The subjects of this study were 11 elderly women (age: $67.09{\pm}2.47$, height: $157.35{\pm}4.30cm$, weight: $62.49{\pm}6.36kg$) with knee osteoarthritis. The combined exercise program of this study was divided into aerobic exercise and lower extremity strengthening exercises. The exercises were performed for 60 minutes per session, three times a week, for a total of 12 weeks. The maximum joint moments of the hip, knee, and ankle joints with walking were obtained with 8-3D cameras (MX-T20, Vicon, USA) and 2-force plate (AMTI OR6-7-400, AMTI, USA). SPSS Windows version 23.0 was used for statistical analysis. A paired t-test was used for pre-post comparison. An alpha level of .05 was utilized in all tests. Results: The maximum extension moment was significantly higher in the hip joint after P1 on the X axis. The maximum joint moment of P3 in extension was statistically significantly lower after intervention. On the Z axis, the maximum joint moment was significantly lower after the exercise intervention at P3. There was a statistically significant increase in the extension moment of the left and right knee joints in the X axis after exercise intervention. In the right ankle joint, P1 (plantar flexion moment) showed a statistically significant high moment after exercise intervention. Conclusion: These results suggest that combined exercise, including lower limb and aerobic exercise, may have a positive effect on mobility and walking moments in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee.

임신부의 경우 심폐소생술동안 좌측 기울림을 적용하도록 권장하고 있다. 하지만, 이 좌측으로 기울리면 임신부의 자궁 뿐만이 아니라 좌심실도 좌측으로 편위되어 심폐소생술의 심장펌프기능이 떨어질 가능성이 있다. 이에 좌측 기울림이 심폐소생술동안 흉골 운동 방향을 대변하는 전후축과 좌심실의 공간적 관계에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 컴퓨터 단층촬영을 이용한 가상내시경검사를 받은 90명의 환자를 대상으로 의무기록과 컴퓨터단층촬영결과를 후향적으로 조사하였다. 가상내시경은 앙와위와 좌측 기울림 위치 모두에서 실시되었다. 좌심실 단면적이 가장 넓은 축면에서 전후축과 좌심실축사이의 각도($Angle_{AP-LV}$), 전후축과 좌심실 중앙사이 최단거리($D_{AP-MidLV}$), 및 전후축과 좌심실첨부사이 최단거리($D_{AP-Apex}$)를 측정하였다. 대상환자 중 87명(96.7%)에서는 앙와위에서 좌심실이 전후축의 좌측에 위치하였다. 좌측으로 기울인 영상에서의 기울림 각도는 $43.4{\pm}11.0^{\circ}$였다. $D_{AP-MidLV}$와 $D_{AP-Apex}$는 좌측 기울린 위치에서 의미있게 길었지만 (p<0.001), AngleAP-LV는 두 자세 사이에 비슷했다. 심장정지인 임신부에서 좌측으로 기울림은 흉부압박의 심장펌프 효과를 떨어뜨릴 수도 있다.

This paper concerns the development of distributed interactive simulation of a road traffic system. The simulation involved models of multiple and distributed road vehicles running on different locations. The simulation system represented a traffic system as if the distributed simulation models were in the same environment. The development of the distributed road traffic simulation was based on High Level Architecture (HLA), a state-of-the-art IEEE standard for the distributed and real-time simulation. Other work concerned modeling and simulating the road vehicles and building the map database for the virtual distributed shared environment. The information used in the simulation system was only in X-axis and Y-axis as the insignificant data in the Z-axis was omitted to simplify the simulation. However, the traffic system has visualized a 3-D coordinate system. The road vehicle models were able to avoid collision. The next direction of a vehicle can be chosen from the provided choices of further paths.

A knee joint's longevity depends on the proper integration of structural components in an axial alignment. If just one of the components is abnormally off-axis, the biomechanical system fails, resulting in arthritis. The complexity of various failures in the knee joint has led orthopedic surgeons to select total knee replacement as a primary treatment. In many cases, this means sacrificing much of an other-wise normal joint. Here, we review novel computational approaches to describe knee physiotherapy by introducing a new dimension of foot loading to the knee axis alignment producing an improved functional status of the patient. New physiotherapeutic applications are then possible by aligning foot loading with the functional axis of the knee joint during the treatment of patients with osteoarthritis.

두경부암 환자의 헤드 홀더를 사용하는 경우 모의 치료 시 환자는 테이블 위에 위치하지만, 방사선 치료를 시행하는 경우 헤드 홀더를 치료 테이블에 걸쳐서 사용하기 때문에 체중 및 여러 가지 요소로 인한 기하학적 불일치로 상, 하, 좌, 우 및 처짐의 현상이 발생할 수 있다. 이러한 환자 Set-Up의 재현성의 불일치를 개선하기 위해 두경부암 전용 헤드 홀더를 자체 고안하여 제작 및 개발하여 유용성을 평가하였다. Alderson Rando Phantom을 이용하여 전산화단층촬영장치(High Advantage, GE, U.S.A)를 통해 이미지를 획득하였고, 광자선 4MV 세기변조 방사선치료(IMRT) 방식을 적용하여 최적화된 치료 계획을 실시하였다. 선형가속기(21EX, Varian, U.S.A)를 이용하여 모의 치료와 동일한 상태에서 환자를 set-up한 후 에 치료기에 장착된 CBCT를 이용하여 각각의 무게(0,15,30Kg)의 차이를 통해 교정 전, 후 X, Y, Z축의 오차를 5회 반복 측정한 결과는 다음과 같다. 0Kg에서 $0.4{\pm}0.8mm$, $0.8{\pm}0.4mm$, 0mm으로 나타났고, 교정 후에는 $0.2{\pm}0.8mm$, $0.4{\pm}0.5mm$, 0으로 나타났다. 15Kg에서 교정 전,후 오차는 $0.2{\pm}0.8mm$, $1.2{\pm}0.4mm$, $2.2{\pm}0.4mm$와 $0.2{\pm}0.4mm$, $0.4{\pm}0.5mm$, $0.4{\pm}0.5mm$로 나타났다. 30Kg에서 교정 전,후 오차는 $0.8{\pm}0.4mm$, $2.4{\pm}0.5mm$, $4.4{\pm}0.8mm$와 $0.6{\pm}0.54mm$, $1{\pm}0mm$, $0.6{\pm}0.5mm$로 나타났다. 각각의 교정 전,후의 통계적으로 분석한 결과 15Kg인 경우 Z축에서 p<0.034, 30Kg인 경우 Y, Z축에서 p<0.038, p<0.041 로 유의한 결과를 나타냈다. 두경부암 전용 방향 조절 장치 헤드 홀더가 환자의 set-up오차를 줄여주는 역할을 해주는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 오차를 줄여줌으로써 환자의 재현성이 향상되어 보다 정밀하고 정확한 방사선 치료를 구현할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Ferroelectric $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ films were deposited on $SrTiO_3(100)$ and Si(100) substrate by using conductive $SrRuO_3$ films as underlayer, and their ferroelectric and electrical properties were investigated depending on crystal structure and orientation. C-axis oriented $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ films were grown on well lattice-matched pseudo-cubic $SrRuO_3$ films deposited on $SrTiO_3(100)$ substrate, while random-oriented polycrystalline $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ films were grown on $SrRuO_3$ films deposited on Si(100) substrate. The random-oriented polycrystalline film showed a good ferroelectric hysteresis property with remanent polarization ($P_r$) of $9.4{\mu}C/cm^2$ and coercive field ($E_c$) of 84.9 kV/cm, while the c-axis oriented film showed $P_r=0.64{\mu}C/cm^2$ and $E_c=47kV/cm$ in polarizaion vs electric field curve. The c-axis oriented $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ film showed a dielectric constant of about 150 and lower thickness dependence in dielectric constant compared to the random-oriented film. Furthermore, the c-axis oriented $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ film showed leakage current lower than that of the polycrystalline film. The difference of ferroelectric properties in two films was explained from the viewpoint of depolarization effect due to orientation of spontaneous polarization and layered crystal structure of bismuth-base ferroelectric oxide.

$Ly{\alpha}$ nebulae, or "$Ly{\alpha}$ blobs", are extended (~100 kpc), bright (L[$Ly{\alpha}$] ~ 1044 erg/s) clouds of $Ly{\alpha}$-emitting gas. The origin of the $Ly{\alpha}$ emission remains unknown, but recent theoretical work suggests that measuring the polarization could discriminate among powering mechanisms. we will discuss current status of $Ly{\alpha}$ polarization observations at high-redshift and our on-going survey program. We will present the first narrow-band, imaging polarimetry of a $Ly{\alpha}$ blob, B3 J2330+3927 at z=3.09, with an embedded, radio-loud AGN (C. You et al. in prep.). The AGN lies near the blob's $Ly{\alpha}$ emission peak and its radio lobes align roughly with the blob's semi-major axis. With the SPOL polarimeter on the MMT telescope, we map the polarization in a grid of circular apertures of radius 0.6" (4.4 kpc), detecting a significant (>$2{\sigma}$) polarization fraction P% in 10 apertures and achieving strong upper-limits (as low as 2%) elsewhere. The degree of the polarization map increases from P% ~ 5% at ~5 kpc from the blob center to ~20% at the outer part (~30 kpc). The detections are distributed asymmetrically, roughly along the blob's major axis. The polarization angles (${\Theta}$) are mostly perpendicular to this axis. These results are consistent with the picture that $Ly{\alpha}$ photons produced at the AGN (or the host galaxy) are resonantly scattered away from the center. Higher polarization fraction on the radio jet suggests that the gas is more optically thin along the jet than the off-axis region.

This study was analyzed the characteristics on the stability of posture while conducting a through two and half rotation technic of pench$\acute{e}$ in rhythmic gymnastics. Two rhythmical gymnastics player(LKH and SSJ) who is a member of the national team were selected, and for obtain the kinematic and kinetic variables were used a ProReflex MCU 240 infrared camera(Qualisys, Sweden) and a Type9286A force platform(Kistler, Switzerland). The mechanical factors were computed by using Visual3D program and Matlab R2009a. During the landing and rotation phase the results showed following characteristics; 1) In medial-lateral and horizontal displacement of the support foot, LKH showed smaller movement than SSJ, but SSJ showed smaller movement than LKH in swing foot. LKH showed bigger movement in medial-lateral axis of COP and vertical axis of COG, but SSJ showed bigger movement in horizontal axis of COP and medial-lateral axis of COG. 2) SSJ showed bigger maximum horizontal and vertical velocity at P1 and P2 than LKH. 3) In the inclination angle of COP and COG, SSJ showed smaller change than LKH, but within medial-lateral tilt of the shoulder, LKH performed rotation motion in horizontal position than SSJ. There was no differences in each force components during rotation, but on landing phase, the results showed a characteristic that SSJ exerted bigger breaking force and vertical force than LKH.

Objective: The effect of abdominal expansion maneuver (AEM) and abdominal draw-in maneuver (ADIM) on postural control in an unsupported position in stroke patients. Design: Randomized controlled trial. Methods: A total of 36 persons with hemiplegic stroke participated in this study. The subjects were randomly divided into an AEM experimental group (n=12), an experimental ADIM group (n=12), and a control group (n=12). We collected the general characteristics of all subjects and the pre-test results before the intervention and after 4 weeks of the intervention. The trunk stabilization training of the ADIM and AEM group were performed 15 minutes a day, 3 times a week for 4 weeks, and general physical therapy was performed 2 times a day, 30 minutes per session, 5 times a week for all three groups. The control group received joint mobilizations, muscle strengthening, endurance strengthening, and gait exercises along with treatment of the central nervous system, such as neuro-developmental treatment, mat, and gait training. The AEM is an inspiratory phase of tidal breathing expanding the lateral lower ribcage in a lateral direction with minimal superior movements of the chest. Then the lower abdomen expands and the navel moves in an anterior-caudal direction. The ADIM is a repeated contraction and relaxation of the anal sphincter during inspiration. The navel pulls the lower abdomen to the direction of the spine without the movement of the trunk and pelvis. Results: Before and after the interventions, medial-lateral axis movement distance, anterior-posterior axis movement distance, sway mean velocity, and sway area 95% was a statistically significant change in all three groups (p<0.05). The post-hoc test showed a significant improvement in medial-lateral axis movement distance, anterior-posterior axis movement distance, sway mean velocity, and sway area in the AEM group compared with the control group, and in the ADIM group compared with the control group (p<0.05). Conclusions: In conclusion, both AEM training and ADIM training are necessary interventions to maintain the independent sitting position according to the characteristics of the patient.
