The texture change of non-linear optical molecules at the air/water interface was investigated as a function of surface pressure with Brewster angle microscopy. The texture change resulted from the aggregation of dye molecules is important to understand the film uniformity and grain formation process. The 4-Octadecylhydroxy-4'-nitrostilbene (OHNS) generated the small spots of size around 1$\mu$m. The spots exhibit high contrast with other film area and do not show angle dependent reflectivity change. It is interesting to observe that the size of the domain stays the same as the film pressure increases. At high surface pressure, the contrast ratio of domains becomes high, which means dense packing of OHNS. And, the size of domain grows. In the middle of domain, highly contrasted domains are formed. The first and the second order transitions of OHNS observed from surface pressure-area isotherm result from the two types of grains. The N,N-Dihexadecylcyanoaniline (DHCA) formed highly contrasted gains over entire region, and the grains are the double layers. The difference in Langmuir film of OHNS and DHCA at the air/water interface is consistent with the small tilt angle from the surface normal for OHNS and the large tilt angle for DHCA in the Langmuir-Blodgett films.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of zinc intake on immune responses in high fat diet induced obese rats. The immune status was assessed by the measurements of immunoglobulins (IgG, A, and M) production by SRBC(sheep red blood cell) with mitogen in vivo. The delayed type hypersensitivity(DTH) response was also measured as an index of cell mediated immunity. The re sults are summarized as follows : 1) There were no significant differences in the feed intake, weight gain and feed efficiency ratio of obese rats by the different dietary zinc levels. 2) White blood cell (WBC) counts were significantly affected as the dietary zinc levels decreased. The capacity of Ig M production in obese rats was significantly higher in normal zinc group than that of low and high zinc group. Cell mediated immune response evaluated by means of DTH testing has also been found to be highly impaired by zinc deficiency and overload. From these observations, it was suggested that adequate levels of zinc may promote the immune function of obese individuals. The relationship and its functional role of the zinc in obesity remains to be further studied.

Based on the observation that ignoring the angle dependency of multigroup resonance cross sections within a fuel pellet would result in nontrivial underestimation of the spatial self-shielding of flux, a parametrized spectral superhomogenization (SPH) factor library (PSSL) method is developed as a practical means of resolving the problem. Region-wise spectral SPH factors are calculated by the normal and transport corrected SPH iterations after ultrafine group slowing down calculations over various light water reactor pin-cell configurations. The parametrization is done with fuel temperature, U-238 number density, fuel radius, moderator source represented by ${\Sigma}_{mod}V_{mod}$, and the number density ratio of resonance nuclides to that of U-238 in a form of resonance interference correction factors. The parametrization is successful in that the root mean square errors of the interpolated SPH factors over the fuel regions of various pin-cells are within 0.1%. The improvement in reactivity error of the PSSL method is shown to be superior to that by the original SPH method in that the reactivity bias of -200 pcm to -300 pcm vanishes almost completely. It is demonstrated that the environment effect takes only about 4% in the reactivity improvement so that the pin-cell based PSSL method is effective in the assembly problems.

The traditional classification methods mostly assume that the data for class distribution is balanced, while imbalanced data is widely found in the real world. So it is important to solve the problem of classification with imbalanced data. In Mahalanobis-Taguchi system (MTS) algorithm, data classification model is constructed with the reference space and measurement reference scale which is come from a single normal group, and thus it is suitable to handle the imbalanced data problem. In this paper, an improved method of MTS-CBPSO is constructed by introducing the chaotic mapping and binary particle swarm optimization algorithm instead of orthogonal array and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) to select the valid variables, in which G-means, F-measure, dimensionality reduction are regarded as the classification optimization target. This proposed method is also applied to the financial distress prediction of Chinese listed companies. Compared with the traditional MTS and the common classification methods such as SVM, C4.5, k-NN, it is showed that the MTS-CBPSO method has better result of prediction accuracy and dimensionality reduction.

The probability of failure is used to analyze the reliability of three dimensional slope failure, instead of conventional factor of safety. The strength parameters are assumed to be normal variated and beta variated. These are interval estimated under the specified confidence level and maximum likelihood estimation. The pseudonormal and beta random variables are generated using the uniform probability transformation method according to central limit theorem and rejection method. By means of a Monte-Carlo Simulation, the probability of failure is defined as; Pf=M/N N : Total number of trials M : Total number of failures Some of the conclusions derived from the case study include; 1. Three dimensional factors of safety are generally much higher than 2-D factors of safety. However situations appear to exist where the 3-D factor of safety can be lower than the 2-D factor of safety. 2. The F3/F2 ratio appears to be quite sensitive to c and ${\phi}$ and to the shape of the 3-D shear surface and the slope but not to be to the unit weight of soil. 3. In cases that strength parameters are assumed to be normal variated and beta variated, the relationships between safety factor and the probability of failure are fairly consistent, regardless of the shape of the 3-D shear surface and the slope. 4. As the c-value is increased, the probability of failure for the same safety factor is increased and as the ${\phi}-value$ is increased, the probability of failure for the same safety factor is decreased.

Purpose: The aim of the study was to compare the characteristics of the autonomic innervation of the heart in polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS) patients with regulary cycling controls. Methods: We studied 21 patients visiting $\bigcirc\bigcirc$hospital from 25th June 2009 to 25th June 2010. The subjects were categorized in two groups, 11 PCOS patients and 10 healthy regularly cycling controls. We studied the difference of Heart rate variability (HRV) between two groups by Independent samples T-test using SPSS for windows(version 17.0). Results: The Standard deviation of all normal R-R intervals (SDNN), The spuare root of the sum of the spuare of difference between adjacent normal R-R intervals (RMS-SD) of PCOS group was non-significantly lower than non-PCOS group. High frequency power (HF) and Normalized high frequency power (HF norm) of PCOS group was significantly higher than non-PCOS group. Normalized low frequency power (LF norm) of PCOS was signficantly lower than non-PCOS group. The results means increased sympathetic and decreased vagal modulation. Total power (TP), Very low frequency power (VLF) of PCOS group was non-significantly lower than non-PCOS group. Low frequency power (LF), LF/HF ratio of PCOS group was non-significantly higher than non-PCOS group. Conclusion: The results suggest that PCOS can be related to decreased activity of parasympathetic nervous system.

An amenorrhoea means the pathologic condition that menstruation stops before the post menopausal period. Clinically, this is classified to both primary amenorrhoea and secondary amenorrhoea. Primary amenorrhoea indicate what has no first menstruation until 14 without secondary sexual sign or what has no first menstruation until 16 with secondary sexual sign before the time. Secondary amenorrhoea is diagnosised when a women with normal menstrual cycle before the onset doesn't have a menstruation over 6 months or appeals amenorrhoea for three times of her normal menstrual cycle. This clinical study was done on the patients who had come to gynecology department of oriental Hospital of Kyung Hee Medical Center from August 1, 1994 to July 31, 1995, complaining of amenorrhoea. The results obtained were as follows: 1. The amenorrhoea patient rate among outpatients who came to the deptment of gynecology was 3.4%. 2. The ratio between primary amenorrhoea and secondary amenorrhoea was 1 : 6.5. 33. The patient rate via other hospitals was 75% and Unremarkable finding(47.6%) was most numerous according to other hospital's diagnosis and hyperprolactinemia(11.9%), premature menopause(11.9%) were the second numerous diagnosis. 4. Unremarkable history(56.7%) was most numerous and among history, the fast(weight loss; 30%) was most numerous. 5. The most general symptom of amenorrhoea patient was indigestion(51.7%). 6. The most frequently used prescribtion for non-insurance was Onpojongoktang(溫胞種玉湯 ; 55%), for insurance was Gamisoyosan(加味逍遙散 ; 16.7%). 7. 25% patient show menstruation in their therapy and among this, 80% patient show menstruation within 40 days. 8. 26.9% secondary amenorrhoea patient show menstruation in their therapy and only one primary amenorrhoea patent(12.5%) shows the same result. 9. Among the effective used prescribtion, Onpojongoktang(溫胞種玉湯 ; 46.7%) is most numerous.

본 연구에서는 중유동 콘크리트 제조를 위해 기존의 재료분리 판정법과 레올로지 정수를 활용하여 콘크리트 재료분리 상황을 정의하고자 하였다. 중유동 콘크리트는 일반강도 범위의 비교적 높은 물시멘트비 조건에서 높은 유동성을 발현하는 조건으로 고성능 감수제를 사용하면서 재료분리를 제어하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 이에 본 연구조건에서는 고형분량이 다른 두 가지 고성능 감수제를 사용하여 일반강도 콘크리트 배합의 유동성을 증진시키면서 재료분리가 발생하기 시작하는 범위의 유동특성과 레올로지 정수의 변화에 대해 관찰하였다. 기존의 레올로지를 이용한 유동성 측정연구는 고유동성을 확보한 조건에서 측정되어야 했기 때문에 재료분리가 발생하는 조건은 측정의 대상에서 제외되었던 경우가 많았다. 본 연구에서는 재료분리가 발생하기 시작하는 상태의 콘크리트 배합조건에서 기존의 재료분리 판정법이나 관찰에 의한 방법으로는 아직 재료분리에 이르르지 않았다고 판단되더라도 레올로지 측정 정수인 소성점도와 정적 항복응력 측정값에서 이상측정값이 관찰되는 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과가 콘크리트에 있어서 재료분리가 발생하는 조건을 레올로지적으로 정의할 수 있는 기초적인 자료를 제공할 것으로 판단한다.

The purpose of this study was to analyze health-related habits, weight control experience and body composition of 344 female students visiting nutrition counselling office. Dietary habits of the subjects were assessed by means of interview with questionnaire and nutrient intakes were evaluated by the simple dietary assessment method. Weight and height were measured to get body mass index(BMI) and waist-hip ratio and their body composition were measured by Inbody 3.0. The obtained results were as follows: 1) Among students, 14.5% were exercising on a regularly basis, of which the exercises were walking and gymnastic exercise(22.1%), jogging(14.1%), and rope-skipping(4.7%), 48.4% of students were little drinking and 30.5% were once a week and smokers were 4.1%. 2) 28.3% of students were little having breakfast and 15.1% were once or twice a week. Two third of total students were not having breakfast regularly. Also only 59.6% of students were having dinner everyday, which means many of them were even skipping dinner. The reasons why they were not having breakfast were because they don't have enough time to eat(66.0%) and for a diet(2.8%) and the reasons for skipping dinner were because they were not hungry(23.0%), for the weight loss(18.2%). It was shown that they would skip dinner rather than breakfast for a weight control. 51.6% of students were taking snack 1~2 times a day and 5.3% were having little snack. 55.4% of students were dining out once a day and 15.4% more am 2 times a day. 3) 46.7% of students were already experiencing weight control before visiting the counselling office. 78.5% of students tried on one kind of weight control method, 11.4% on two kinds, and 10.1 % on more than three kinds. The method they tried for a weight control most was the one food diet using egg, fruits and beans, which is the most popular among them, and the next were an aerobic exercise(23.6%). a diet tried by a famous entertainer (15.5%), and the fasting(14.5%). 4) The average BMI was 21.2 and the body fat rate was 28.1%. As a result of grouping BMI, 12.8% were underweight 67.6% normal weight 11.6% overweight and 8% obesity. Less than standard for the body fat rate were 0.6%, 50.6% standard, 48.5% more than standard. 49.2% of students as normal weight on a BMI were assessed the so-called "skinny obesity. 50% of consulted students situated fat intra-abdominally at the umbilical level(WHR>0.8). 5) The energy intake was 76.6$\pm$17.8% of RDA and constituent ratio of carbohydrate, fat and protein were 64.2$\pm$5.2%, 21.6$\pm$3.7% and 14.3$\pm$2.3%, respectively, which is little over of 20% of recommended ratio of fat. Protein and niacin intake were more than 90% of RDA and riboflavin and vit. C were taken more than 100% of RDA. But Fe intake was 69.4$\pm$19.3%, Ca 76.6$\pm$23.6%, which were the least constituents. There was not remarkable significance between energy intake and nutrient density based on the groups of underweight, normal weight, overweight and obesity of BMI. 6) It was shown that body fat rate had remarkably significant correlation(p<0.000) with BMI(r=0.760) and WHR(r=0.817) respectively, but body fat rate was more correlated with WHR than with BMI. There was not much significant difference between body fat rate and WHR whether they exercised or not. However. BMI was significantly higher in the exercise group because one who showed higher BMI started to exercise since they looked fat in appearance and perceived as they were fat. fat.

Bolton 분석이 치아크기 부조화를 예측하기 위해 널리 사용되고 있지만 그 정확도에 대해서는 의문이 제기되어왔다. 이에 본 연구는 부정교합자를 대상으로 하여 실제 전치부 부조화가 나타나는 양상을 조사하고. 그것에 영향을 주는 요인에 대해서 평가하고자 하였다.. 연구대상은 다양한 부정교합(Class I. Class II, Class III. Class III surgery)을 가졌으며, 교정치료를 마친 80명의 환자들로 구성되었다. 치료 전 모형, 치료 후 모형으로부터 얻어진 셋업 모형 그리고 치료 전후 측모 두부 X-선 계측사진을 분석하였으며 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 한국인 부정교합자의 전치부 Bolton ratio는 Bolton의 표본 및 한국인 정상교합자 표본과 비교해 보았을 때 평균, 표준편차범위가 다소 크게 나타났다. 실제 전치부 부조화는 상악의 부족(deficiency)을 보이는 경우가 상악의 과잉(excess)을 보이는 경우보다 많았다. 전치부 Bolton ratio로부터 예측한 전치부 부조화는 셋업 모형을 통해서 얻은 실제 전치부 부조화와 비교해 버았을 때 차이를 보였다 (p<0.05). 성별 및 부정교합군은 실제 전치부 부조화에 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다 (p>005). 수직피개와 상악 치아 절단연 두께는 실제 전치부 부조화와 상관관계가 거의 없는 것으로 나타났다. 다중회귀분석 결과 실제 전치부 부조화에는 치료 전 모형의 전치부 Bolton ratio, 치료 후 상악 전치가 교합평면과 이루는 각, 치료 후 절치간각, 치료 전 상악 우측 측절치 폭경 등의 요인이 기여하는 것으로 나타났다.
