고준위 방사성폐기물을 심지층에 안전하게 처분하기 위해서는 방사성 핵종의 장기적 지구화학 거동에 대한 정확한 예측이 요구된다. 이와 관련하여 본 연구에서는 국내 심부 지하수를 대표하는 다섯가지 지화학 환경 조건에서 지화학 모델링을 수행하여 일부 방사성 핵종의 지화학 거동을 예측하였다. 다섯가지 국내 심부 지하수의 지화학 환경은 다음과 같다: 고 TDS 염지하수(G1), 산성 pH의 CO₂가 풍부한 지하수(G2), 고 pH 알칼리성 지하수(G3), 황산염이 풍부한 지하수(G4), 묽은(담수) 지하수(G5). 3~12의 pH 범위와 ±0.2V의 산화-환원전위(Eh) 조건에서 일부 방사성 핵종(우라늄, 플루토늄, 팔라듐)의 국내 심부 지하수 내에서의 용해도와 화학종(존재형태)을 예측하였다. 모델링 결과, 용존 상태의 우라늄은 주로 U(IV)로서 중성~알칼리성의 넓은 pH 환경에서 높은 용해도를 보였으며, Eh가 -0.2V인 환원 환경에서도 알칼리 pH 조건에서 높은 용해도를 보였다. 이러한 높은 용해도는 주로 Ca-U-CO₃ 착물의 형성에 의한 것으로 예측되는데, 이 착물의 활동도(activity)는 국내 심부 지하수 중 주요 단층대를 따라 산출되는 G2와 화강암반에 위치하는 G3에서 높다. 한편, 플루토늄(Pu)의 용해도는 pH에 따라 달라지며, 특히 중성~알칼리성 조건에서 가장 낮은 용해도가 나타난다. 주요 화학종은 Pu(IV)와 Pu(III)이며, 이들은 주로 흡착을 통해 제거될 것으로 추정된다. 그러나 콜로이드에 의한 이동을 고려하면, 이온강도가 낮은 심부 지하수인 G3와 G5 유형에서 콜로이드 형성 및 이동 촉진에 따라 이동성이 증가할 것으로 예상된다. 팔라듐(Pd)은 환원 환경에서는 황화물 침전 반응으로 인해 낮은 용해도를 나타내며, 산화 환경에서는 주로 금속(수)산화물에의 흡착을 통해 Pd(OH)₃^-, PdCl₃(OH)₂^-, PdCl₄^2- 및 Pd(CO₃)₂^2-와 같은 음이온 착물이 제거될 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구는 한국의 심부 지하수 환경에서 방사성 핵종의 운명과 이동에 대한 이해를 높이고, 고준위 방사성 폐기물의 안전한 처분을 위한 전략 개발에 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

This paper describes a method of approximate reasoning for fuzzy control of servo system, based on decomposition of -level fuzzy sets. It is propose that logic circuits for fuzzy PI+PD are a body from fuzzy inference to defuzzificaion in cases where the output variable u directly is generated PWM. The effectiveness for robust and faster response of the fuzzy control scheme is verified for a variable parameter by comparison with a PID control and fuzzy control. A position control of DC servo system with a fuzzy logic controller successfully demonstrated.

Background: This systematic analysis was conducted to investigate pathological diagnosis of vertebral tumor metastasis with unknown primaries. Methods: Clinical studies conducted to pathologically investigate vertebral tumor metastasis were identified using a predefined search strategy. Pooled diagnosis (PD) of each pathological confirmation was calculated. Results: For vertebral tumor metastasis, 5 clinical studies which included 762 patients were considered eligible for inclusion. Systematic analysis suggested that, for all patients with vertebral tumor metastasis, dominant PD was pathologically confirmed with lung cancer in 21.7% (165/762), with breast cancer in 26.6% (203/762) and with prostate cancer in 19.2% (146/762). Other diagnosis that could be confirmed included lymphoma, multiple myeloma, renal cancer, for example, in this cohort of patients. Conclusions: This systemic analysis suggested that breast, lung and prostate lesions could be the most common pathological types of cancer for vertebral tumor metastasis formunknown primaries, and other common diagnoses could include lymphoma, multiple myeloma, renal cancer.

A 7-year-old, spayed female, Yorkshire terrier dog with polyuria/polydipsia (PU/PD), interdigital edema, pruritus and abdominal enlargement was referred to the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital of the present university. Pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocortisim (PDH) was diagnosed by clinical signs, physical examination, laboratory examination (complete blood count, serum chemistry, urinalysis, ACTH stimulation test and high dose dexamethasone suppression test) and diagnostic imaging (radiography, ultrasonography and computed tomography). Clinical signs were improved after trilostane treatment, and maintenance therapy with trilostane still continued after successful induction therapy. Trilostane can be used as an alternative to mitotane therapy in hyperadrenocortisim in dogs.

본 논문은 클러스터링 기법을 도입하여 기존에 제안된 가중치 협력 스펙트럼 시스템에서 실질적으로 구하지 못했던 Pd를 구하고, 새로운 가중치 생성 알고리즘을 통하여 1차 사용자 신호의 감지 성능을 향상시키는 방법을 제안하였다. 유사한 채널을 같는 CR 사용자를 클러스터링 기법을 이용하여 그룹화하여 각각의 사용자로부터 획득한 센싱 결과를 토대로 Pd를 계산하였다. 또한, 각 클러스터의 검출확률의 제곱 합을 이용하여 가중치(Wj(n+1))를 생성하였다. 이는 기존의 방식보다 센싱 성능이 우수하였으며, 특히 1차 사용자의 신호가 갑자기 사라졌을 경우 신호가 없는 상황에서의 검출 확률인 false alarm rate가 낮아지는 결과를 보였다. 컴퓨터 모의실험을 통하여 이를 검증한다.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of shoulder external rotation on muscle activities of the scapular upward rotators during arm elevation. METHODS: Nineteen healthy subjects with no medical history of shoulder pain or upper extremity disorders were recruited for this study. Electromyography (EMG) was used to measure the muscle activities of the serratus anterior (SA), upper trapezius (UP), lower trapezius (LT) and infraspinatus (IS) muscles during arm elevation. The EMG activities were recorded while the subjects performed $90^{\circ}$ arm elevation with three different arm positions; palm down (PD), neutral position (NP), and palm up (PU). While seated in a chair, the subject was asked to raise the upper extremity in the sagittal plane in random order. Subjects performed $90^{\circ}$ arm elevations in three trials at each arm position. The mean EMG activity normalized by the maximal voluntary isometric contraction was analyzed across three arm positions. Repeated measures one-way ANOVA and the post hoc Bonferroni tests were used to determine the differences in muscle activities among the three arm positions. RESULTS: The EMG activities of the SA and IS were significantly greater in the PU condition than in the other conditions during arm elevation. No significant difference was noted between the NP and PD conditions during arm elevation. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that shoulder external rotation (palm up position) can be used to activate the SA. Therefore, we recommend a scapular protraction exercise in the palm up position for strengthening the SA.

A 10-year-old, spayed female miniature schnauzer was referred to the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital of Chungnam National University due to evaluation of sudden polyuria (PU) and, polydipsia (PD) (540 mL/kg/day) with severe anemia and weight loss. Blood examination results were normal except for severe anemia (hematocrit, [HCT]: 11.8%). Urinalysis revealed a urine specific gravity (USG) of 1.003, whereas urine sediment was not specific. Urine osmolality was 90 mOsm (reference range: 800~2500 mOsm), and plasma osmolality was 303 mOsm. No specific lesions were found using diagnostic imaging including radiography, ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The serum cortisol level was normal in cosyntropin stimulation test. Plasma arginine vasopressin (AVP) concentration was <0.4 pg/mL (reference range: 3.49~5.45 pg/mL). Blood transfusion was initiated in addition to an oral prescription of desmopressin acetate (DDAVP, 0.1 mg/head) thrice a day for one week. The patient was rechecked for clinical signs, urine osmolality, and USG; the clinical signs of PU/PD were resolved, urine osmolality increased to 1106 mOsm, and, USG increased to 1.021. Considering the improved clinical signs, and increased urine osmolality, and USG after DDAVP treatment, the dog was diagnosed with central diabetes insipidus. USG and urine osmolality increased to >1.030 and 2200 mOsm, respectively. Anemia also gradually improved and HCT increased to >37%. DDAVP was tapered to 0.1 mg/head twice a day and all clinical signs in the patient have completely resolved.

The paper aims to explore the factors affecting potential users of international bank cards in Vietnam. With milestones treaties being signed CPTPP and EVFTA, Vietnam is now exposing itself to the international open environment. Bank card market is at the core of this wind of change, and that is the reason for us to research the intention to use international bank cards. Given that the decision to choose international bank cards could either be the switch from domestic cards or adopting a brand new card, we develop some specific constructs to reflect that consideration, specifically PE and PD, asides from traditional constructs used in TPB and TAM frameworks. The analysis work is conducted using PLS-SEM approach. Our findings reveals that most of our proposed hypotheses are supported, in which SN plays the most important direct role to INT, while total effect of PU on INT is similar to that of SN. The newly introduced PD negatively and significantly impacts INT, and PE also has a positive impact on INT. The findings suggest that overall, it is important for bank card issuers to have a balance approach to the market, with focus on increasing usefulness and reducing potential disadvantages of international bank cards.

Pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction (PPID), often referred to as equine Cushing's disease, is a common endocrine disorder often diagnosed in older horses. A 13-year-old 460 kg Warmblood gelding showed clinical signs suggestive of PPID, including hypertrichosis, fat redistribution, polyuria and polydipsia (PU/PD), and weight loss. Physical examination, complete blood cell count, and serum chemistry results were normal. However, dexamethasone suppression and plasma adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) level tests confirmed PPID. Three months after the confirmed diagnosis, the horse was referred again with symptoms of laminitis. Radiography and venography were performed to evaluate the laminitis severity level. However, the foot condition continued to worsen, and the horse was eventually euthanized. The purpose of this case report is to describe clinical signs and diagnosis of PPID with laminitis.

A Spitz (5-years old, castrated male) and a Maltese (9-years old, castrated male) were presented with weight loss, polyuria/polydipsia (PU/PD) and depression. Diabetic ketosis was diagnosed based on clinical signs, physical examinations and screening tests (CBC, serum chemistry and urinalysis). The dogs were treated with NPH initially. However, NPH was inadequate to control blood glucose level due to the short duration of the action (< 5 hours). Because of the poor glycemic control with NPH, the dogs showed diabetic complications including weight loss and cataract. After change to glargine, the duration of insulin action was extended up to 11 hours. As a result, there was significant improvement in clinical signs and serum fructosamine concentrations. This study suggests that glargine is useful as a long-acting insulin in dogs which have poor glycemic control due to the short duration of NPH.
