  • Infrared Scanning Near-field Optical Microscopy (IR-SNOM) is an extremely powerful analytical instrument since it combines IR spectroscopy's high chemical specificity with SNOM's high spatial resolution. In order to do this in the infrared, specialty chalcogenide glass fibers were fabricated and their ends tapered to generate SNOM probes. The fiber tips were installed in a modified near field microscope and both inorganic and biological samples illuminated with the tunable output from a free-electron laser located at Vanderbilt University. Both topographical and IR spectral images were simultaneously recorded with a resolution of ${\sim}50\;nm$ and ${\sim}100\;nm$, respectively. Unique spectroscopic features were identified in all samples, with spectral images exhibiting resolutions of up to ${\lambda}/60$, or at least 30 times better than the diffraction limited lens-based microscopes. We believe that IR-SNOM can provide a very powerful insight into some of the most important bio-medical research topics.

  • Chromosome 6p duplication is very rare and clinically characterized by short stature, mental retardation, and congenital heart diseases. Patients with mental retardation may present with poor oral health conditions. Dental treatment may need to be performed under general anesthesia in such patients. Our case report deals with induction of general anesthesia to a patient with chromosome 6p duplication, for dental treatment. The selection of a nasotracheal tube of an appropriate size, because of the patient's short stature, was especially important for airway management. In the present case, the patient with chromosome 6p duplication was intubated with a nasotracheal tube, which was not age-matched but adapted to the height and physique of the patient.

  • The effect of author's recipe of milk-substituting food was studied on 164 children of a primary school. Dividing the subjects into tow groups, A and B respectively, the former being fed with the author's food and the latter served as control, feeding was continued for 6 months daily at lunch hour, with the following results. (1) The effect of the author's milk-substituting food on the body-physique of the children could not be evaluated because of the short period of observation. (2) As observed clinically, various nutritional deficiency symptoms, such as anemia, angular scar glossitis, and hyperkeratosis, were far less frequently occurred in the fed group, while no such significant reduction of occurrence was noted in the control group. It was concluded from the above results that the well-balanced school feeding to the children Is necessary.

  • The purpose of this study was to develop men's formal jacket pattern for the Korean males of age 25 to 34 age with an average physique. Through the survey on seven industries of the ready-made men's wear, we investigated size systems and jacket patters presently practiced. From the fitting test of four patterns (three for ready-made jacket patterns, one for educational pattern) the moat favorable and comfortable pattern was selected. New experimented jacket pattern was based on it. The findings were as followed. 1) Survey of the domestic ready-made garment industries showed that each company classified its own manufactured goods according to its own size systems. 2) Anthropometric measurments of forty males for the subjects of lilting test were agreed to the survey of National Anthropometric of Korean(1997). These were also compatible to the standard size (100-88-175) of investigated industries. 3) Experimental jacket pattern was completed through the three times rectification and it gained higher ratings.

  • The manufacture of children's wear is another part of the giant industry. However, the production of children's wear remains a small factory operation without scientific study. This study is aimed at establishing the normal sizes for slacks pattern making of 6∼8 years old children. The sample were classified into 5 groups of stature. The findings are as follows: 1) In analysis of stature group 110∼115cm to 130∼135cm there were almost significant differences of the mean values of all items. Comparison of physique shows even variation between stature group. 2) The correlation among all the parts of the body is strong in the case of the Stature. 3) The result of regression analysis is as follows. In slacks pattern making Back Waist Height and Slacks Length were exactly determined by Stature. Waist to Knee were exactly determined by Slacks Length.

  • The purpose of study was to compare the effect of balance performance in the Down syndrome child by the Sensorimotor program. Twenty-four aged 8 to 16 years participated in this study. Participants were divided into experimental(12) and control group(12). Experimental group were received sensorimotor program in three times a week for 6 weeks. But control group were not participants this program. All subjects were assessmented to clinical test such as Oseretsky and Berg balance test. Experimental and control subjects were tested before, after and end(after summer vacation)of the trial. The results were as follow; 1. The physique of Down syndrome child is more dropped than normal child. 2. Balance of Down syndrome child prior to test is clearly dropped. but effect of Sensorimotor program is appeared in experimental group. 3. Balance of experimental group is more decreased than prior to during the summer vacation.

  • This essay examines the costumes for gods and priests in ancient Mesopotamia as they are depicted in various documents and artifacts of the period, and it is part of an ongoing project that studies the process in which the religious costumes, the means of religious communication, of ancient Mesopotamia had evolved. The study shows that the religious costunmes in ancient Mesopotamia have following characteristics. 1. The costumes for gods are the same as those for men, including warp-around skirts, tierd skirts, shawls, and tunics. However, there are some differences : costumes for gods include such distinguishing features as aprons and long tassels. 2. Both wear stylized headpieces that indicate their divinity and have long hair and long beard. 3. As for shoes, the Sumerian and Babilonian gods go barefoot, but the militant Assyrian gods wear sandals. 4. Sumerian and Babilonian figures do not have much, but the Assyrian gods wear various ornaments including earrings and bracelets that emphasize their muscular physique. 5. Priests wear weird skirts or wrap-around skirts but no top. They have shaved hair to indicate their role as purifiers, but some of them have long beards.

  • To compare physique classification by body consciousness and anthropometric index, 83 students were chosen from May to June 1998. Anthropometry including weight and height were measured and food frequency was examined by questionnaires. The results are as follows; 1) Average age of the subjects is 20.7, height 160.8cm and weight 51.4 kg. 2) All anthropometric indices and body fat percentage are highly correlated and all anthropometric indices show high and positive correlation with weight, but negative correlation with height. 3) The 55.4-75.9% of subjects were normal range by criteria of BMI and RI respectively, but the 40% of subjects were obese range by the self-consciousness of leanness/obesity. 4) The lean group was thinner in trunk and extremities, taller and lighter than the obese group. 5) When we investigated the groups classified by the body consciousness, the significant differences were found in the physical measurements related with feeling about self-obesity.
