We investigated the effect of different exercise intensities on biomarkers of oxidant-antioxidant balance, inflammation, and muscle damage. Eighteen healthy and untrained male subjects were enrolled.Subjects were randomly and equally assigned to a moderate-intensityexercise(MIE, $65%VO_2max$) group(n=9) or a high-intensity exercise(HIE, $85%VO_2max$) group(n=9).Blood samples were collectedimmediately pre-exercise, post-exercise, and 60min post-exercisetoexamine oxidant-antioxidant balance(d-ROMs; BAP), inflammation(CRP; fibrinogen), muscle damage(CK; LDH), and lactate. Serum d-ROMs and BAP levels were significantly increased post-exercise compared with pre-exercise levels in HIE group(p<0.05). Lactate levels were significantly increased post-exercise compared pre-exercise levels in both the MIE and HIE groups(p<0.05). In addition, post-exercise serum d-ROMs and plasma lactate levels were significantly higher in the HIE group than in the MIE group(p<0.05). These results suggest that although relatively high-intensity exercises may increase oxidative stress levels in the body, they do not produce inflammatory response and/or muscle damage.

Purpose: The purpose of the present study was to compare the effects of both general hold-relax techniques and hold-relax techniques using pumping on pain due to delayed muscle pain and on the range of motion (ROM) of joints. Methods: Thirty-nine young adult males and females were randomly assigned either to a hold-relax technique application group of 20 subjects or to a group of 19 subjects with hold-relax techniques applied using a pumping application. Tenderness thresholds, the ROM of joints, and pain intensities were measured on the biceps of the nondominant arm of the subjects in both groups before exercises were performed to induce delayed muscle pain. Tenderness thresholds were again measured 24hours, 48hours, and 72 hours after inducing delayed muscle pain. The relevant intervention methods were applied to the two groups after conducting the measurement at 48hours. As a statistical analysis method, repeated measure ANOVAs were conducted to examine the tenderness thresholds, ROMs of elbow joints, and pain intensities in the individual groups at the time points. Results: At 48 hours and 72 hours after application of the interventions, the general hold-relax technique application group showed greater changes in the tenderness thresholds, the ROMs of elbow joints, and the pain intensities than did the group applying hold-relax techniques using a pumping application (p>0.05). Conclusion: Based on the results of the present study, the application of hold-relax techniques is thought to have beneficial effects on pain resulting from delayed muscle pain and on limited ROMs of joints.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop sleeve-type restraints and to compare the sleeve-type and conventional wrist restraints. Methods: Forty four pairs of intensive care unit (ICU) patients and their families participated in the experiment. The nurses applied sleeve-type restraints to the patients in the experimental group, and wrist restraints to the control group. The trained research assistant measured ROMs, skin temperature, edema, and skin lesions of both upper extremities (UEs) before, 24, 48, and 72 hours after the restraints applied. The emotional response of family was measured 72 hours after the restraints applied. Thirty one ICU nurses evaluated the efficiency of both types of restraints. Results: Compared to the control group, changes of ROMs, edema, and skin abrasions on both U/Es of the experimental group indicated a significant difference in physical side effects. The emotional response scores of the experimental group were significantly lower than those of the control group. The mean efficiency scores for the sleeve-type restraints were significantly higher than those for the wrist restraints. Conclusion: The results indicate that the sleeve-type restraints are better than wrist restraints with respect to physical side effects, emotional responses of family members, and application efficiency.

새로운 직접 디지털 주파수 합성기(DDFS)가 제안되었다. 제안된 DDFS는 기존의 DDFS 에서의 각 롬(ROM)들을 양자화롬과 오차롬으로 나누어 저장하는 새로운 롬 압축 방식을 사용한다. 제안된 DDFS에서의 전체 롬 크기는 기존의 롬에 비하여 상당히 줄어들었다. 12비트 출력 데이터를 가지는 DDFS의 경우, 롬 압축률은 78분의 1에 이른다. 성능 검증을 위하여 사인 함수의 12비트 출력 데이터를 가지는 DDFS가 0.35㎛ CMOS 공정으로 구현되었다. 3.3V전원과 100㎒ 클럭에서의 소모 전력은 9.36㎽이고 최고 동작 클럭 주파수는 330㎒이다.

Objective : The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics of Gam-ki (double-arm winding) depending on the emotion being expressed. Gam-ki is one of the basic movements of Korean traditional dance. Method : We selected three Korean traditional dancers who belong to National Dance Company of Korea. They were asked to express four different emotions (anger, joy, sadness, and neutral) while performing Gam-ki. We analyzed elapsed time and time ratio, size of movement, ground reaction forces and ground impulses. Results : During Gam-ki the elapsed time for each phase as well as for one cycle was longest when "sadness" was expressed then followed by "neutral" and then "angry" and "joy." Except for the ankle in/eversion, the ROMs of the lower limb joints seem not to be an emotion-characteristic factor. The ROMs of the upper limb joints were largest when "anger" was expressed. Neck rotation is associated with expressing negative emotions ("angry" and "sadness"). For medial-lateral GRF "angry"> "joy" > "neutral" > "sadness" was in order. Therefore, it can be regarded as a factor indicating the activity of the emotion.

강어귀의 기하학적 특징과 바람의 방향(upwelling, onshore, downwelling, and offshore winds)에 의한 담수 확산의 변화에 대하여 3차원 해양 순환 모델인 Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS)을 이용하여 연구하였다. 총 4개의 임의의 강어귀를 가정하였으며, 담수가 수심이 깊어지는 바다(sloping shelf)에 진입했을 경우가 편평한 바다(flat shelf)에 진입한 경우에 비해 빠른 x, y 운동량(momentum)의 상실과 상대적으로 강한 Coriolis 효과로 인하여 외해로의 담수 확산이 제한되는 것으로 연구되었다. 바람은 수직혼합을 촉진시켜 성층현상을 파괴한다는 기존 연구에 반해 약용승풍(mild upwelling winds)과 외해풍(offshore winds)의 경우(${\mid}{\tau}_{\omega}{\mid}=0.01Pa$) 성층현상을 촉진시키는 것으로 연구되었다. 이와는 반대로 침강풍(downwelling winds)과 연안풍(onshore winds)의 경우 기존 연구와 같이 성층을 파괴하는 것으로 연구되었다. 해저 물길(submarine channel)은 담수확산에 직접적인 영향을 주며 물길의 방향 또는 폭 등과 같은 해저 물길의 기하학적 특징에 의해 담수의 확산 정도가 달라지는 것으로 연구되었다. 또한 해저 물길은 담수 확산을 해저 물길의 상층부로 강하게 제한하는 것으로 연구되었다.

Objective: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD) is characterized by persistent airflow limitations associated with chronic inflammatory response due to noxious particles or gases in the lung. Inflammation and oxidative stress are associated with COPD. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship among inflammation, oxidative stress, and airflow limitation severity in retired miners with COPD. Methods: The levels of serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hsCRP) as a biomarker for inflammation, degree of reactive oxygen metabolites(dROMs) and biological antioxidants potential(BAP) in plasma as biomarkers for oxidative stress were measured in 211 male subjects with COPD. Degree of airflow limitation severity as determined by spirometry was divided into three grades grouped according to the classification of the Global Initiatives for Obstructive Lung Disease(GOLD)(1, mild; 2, moderate; $3{\leq}$, severe or more) using a fixed ratio, post- bronchodilator $FEV_1/FVC$ < 0.7. Results: Mean levels of dROMs significantly increased in relation to airflow limitation severity(GOLD 1, 317.8 U.CARR vs. GOLD 2, 320.3 U.CARR vs. GOLD $3{\leq}$, 350.9 U.CARR, p=0.047) and dROMs levels were correlated with serum hsCRP levels(r=0.514, p<0.001). Mean levels of hsCRP were higher in current smokers(non-smoker, 1.47 mg/L vs. smoker, 2.34 mg/L, p=0.006), and tended to increase with degree of airflow limitation severity(p=0.071). Mean levels of BAP were lower in current smokers(non-smoker, $1873{\mu}mol/L$ vs. smoker, $1754{\mu}mol/L$, p=0.006). Conclusions: These results suggest that inflammation and oxidative stress are related to airflow limitation severity in retired miners with COPD, and there was a correlation between inflammation and oxidative stress.

In this paper we present a microprocessor-based interpolator using algebraic arithmetic method. The interpolator consists of 2910 "bit-slice" microprocessor chips and 0.5K ROMs of microprogram memory. The system design is an instruction-data-based architecture with 250ns cycle time. A significant feature of the interpolator is that it has flexibility, very fast interpolatioon speed of (max) 250K pulses/sec, and performs additional functions simultaneously. Throughout the paper detailed explanations are given as to how one can design the hardware and software of the interpolator efficently. In addi- tion to hardware and software design, experimental results are pressented.ressented.

In this paper, we designed a pipeline (15,9) Reed-solomon decoder. To compute the error locator polynomials, we used the Euclidean algorithm. This algorithm includes computation of inverse element. We avoided the inverse element calculation in this RS decoder by using ROMs. We designed this decoder using VHDL. Simulation results show that the designed decoder corrects three error symbols. We implemented this design through an Altera FPGA chip.

In distributed arithmetic-based architecture for an inner product between two length-N vectors, the size of the ROM increases exponentially with N. Moreover, the ROMs are generally the bottleneck of speed, especially when their sire is large. In this paper, a ROM size reduction technique for DA (Distributed Arithmetic) is proposed. The proposed method is based on modified OBC (Offset Binary Coding) and control circuit reduction technique. By simulations, it is shown that the use of the proposed technique can result in reduction in the number of gates up to 50%.
