Recently, the number of patients with prostate cancer has been increased gradually by both the change of living environment and the increase of aged population. In this study the serum prostate specific antigen (PSA) level was compared to the Gleason score known as a prognostic factor for the prostate cancer. In the Gleason score 6 and $9{\sim}10$, the average age was 69.68 years old and 69.52 years old, respectively and there was no statistically difference in both of age and Gleason score. the PSA serum consistency appeared <4 ng/mL as example 1, $4{\sim}20ng/mL$ as example 17 and ${\geq}20ng/mL$ as example 4 in the Gleason score 6, and In the Gleason score $9{\sim}10$, it appeared <4 ng/mL as example 1, $4{\sim}20ng/mL$ as example 6 and ${\geq}20ng/mL$ as example 15. PSA serum consistency in the Gleason score $9{\sim}10$ showed higher value than those of Gleason score 6 (P<0.05). Next, expression ratios of bcl-2, Ki-67 and p53 were examined in the Gleason score 6 and $9{\sim}10$. the p53 expression ratio, a tumor suppression gene, appeared the significance statistically by the classification of the Gleason score as example 7 (28%) in the Gleason score 6 and as example 16 (64%) in the Gleason score $9{\sim}10$ (P<0.05). but not different in the expression ratios of the Ki-67 and bcl-2. The expression ratio of p53 by the expression ratio of bcl-2 and the expression ratio of Ki-67 by the expression ratio of p53 had a positive relationship in all of the Gleason score 6 and the Gleason score $9{\sim}10$ (P<0.05). However, the expression ratio of Ki-67 by the expression ratio of bcl-2 did not show any significance in the Gleason score $9{\sim}10$ (P<0.05). Therefore, the results suggested that p53 expression could be used as an independent prognostic factor.

The Purpose of this study is to prove empirically the relationship between technology valuation and performance in Ventures, while considering the uniqueness of Korean firms. We use technology score, marketability score, business attractiveness score as ex-ante independent variables, use firm's performance(sales, asset, operating income ratio, net income ratio etc) as ex-post dependent variables. Parametric analysis such as Paired T-test, ANOVA are applied in this paper. The results of Empirical analysis is summarized as follows. Firstly, operating income ratio and net income ratio are different in portfolios classified by technology score. Secondly, the growth rate of operating income is different in portfolios classified by technology score. Finally, this study has shown that technology score has possibility which it use the predictive variables of firm performances.

본 연구는 유방 전단파 탄성 초음파에서 탄성도 점수와 변형비를 이용한 방법이 양성과 악성병변의 감별진단에 유용한지를 평가하였다. 탄성 초음파를 시행한 224명을 대상으로 하였으며, 유방조직검사 결과를 바탕으로 후향적인 분석을 하였다. 유방 종괴의 양성과 악성에 따른 5단계의 탄성도 점수와의 동질성 비교는 Fisher's Exact test, 변형비와의 차이검증은 Mann-Whitney U test를 실시하였다. ROC 곡선분석을 통해 악성병변의 예측을 위한 탄성도 점수와 변형비의 최적 cut off 값을 결정하였다. 양성과 악성 결절 군의 분류에 따른 탄성도 점수의 동질성 비교와 변형비의 차이검증 결과에서 각각 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였으며(p=.000), ROC 곡선분석에서 양성과 악성 결절의 예측을 위한 탄성도 점수와 변형비의 AUC 0.824, 0.806, cut off 값 3, 4.4로 결정되었다(p=.001). 따라서 탄성도 점수와 변형비는 유방 종괴의 감별진단에 도움을 줄 수 있을 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between the diversity of food intake and nutrient intake among Korean college students participating in a nutrition education class via the internet. The subjects were 796 college students throughout South Korea (278 males, 518 females). A 3 days dietary recall survey was conducted and results were analyzed using the Computer-aided Nutritional Analysis Program. Dietary variety was assessed by DDS (dietary diversity score), MBS (meal balance score), and DVS (dietary variety score). Dietary quality was assessed by NAR (nutrient adequacy ratio), and MAR (mean adequacy ratio). As the DDS, MBS and DVS increased, the NAR and MAR improved. The subjects with a DDS of above 4 or a MBS of above 10 or a DVS of above 11 met two-thirds of the Korean recommended dietary allowance for most nutrients. The DDS, MBS and DVS correlated positively and significantly with the NAR and MAR. Associations between the NAR and high levels of DVS were more positive than those between the NAR and the DDS. Based on these results, the food intake of these subjects was not adequate. Specially, the dietary intake of calcium and iron were not adequate. Therefore, dietary guidelines should be made considering nutritional characteristics so as to improve the intake from all of the major food groups and provide a variety of foods in their diets.

This study analyzed the information factors which determine cash liquidity in Korean export-oriented companies. In this paper, cash liquidity means the ratio of the value of cash or cash equivalent to the asset value subtracted marketable securities value from total asset value. The empirical test shows that main information factors are the size of company, the growth opportunity of company, the volatility of operating cash flows and free cash flows, the credit yield spread of company, the debt ratio, the turnover ratio of cash flows and free cash flows, and the estimate of bankruptcy that amounts to the inverse number of Z score. In summary, the size of company, debt ratio, turnover ratio of cash flows and free cash flows, and Z-score have negative influence on the cash liquidity of Korean export-oriented companies. but the volatility of operating cash flows affect the cash liquidity positively.

목적: Palliative Performance Scale (PPS)는 진행성 암환자에서 널리 사용되는 예후도구이다. PPS 측정이 생존에 대한 예측을 의미하지만, 연속적인 PPS 측정에 대한 유용성은 추가적인 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 완화 병동에 입원한 진행성 암환자를 대상으로 PPS score의 변화와 생존간의 연관성에 대해 진행한 연구이다. 방법: 2010년 1월부터 2012년 12월까지 서울성모병원 완화의학과에 입원한 환자 606에 대한 의무기록을 통하여 입원 당일의 PPS score와 입원 3일째의 PPS score 그리고, 두 score의 차이를 측정하여 점수의 변화와 생존간의 관련성을 분석하였다. 결과: PPS score의 변화와 생존과는 통계적으로 유의한 관련이 있었다. PPS score의 변화가 30% 이하인 군과 비교하였을 때, 30% 초과된 군에서 hazard ratio가 2.66(95% CI 2.19~3.22)로 확인되었다. 입원 3일째 PPS score가 30% 이하인 경우 독립적으로 생존에 대한 예측이 가능하였으며, PPS score 30% 초과된 군과 비교했을 때 hazard ratio는 1.67 (95% CI 1.38~2.02)로 확인되었다. 입원 당시의 PPS score는 생존과 독립적인 관련성은 없었다. 결론: 후향적으로 의무기록 분석을 통해 이루어진 본 연구에서 30% 이상의 PPS score 변화는 입원중인 말기 암환자의 생존과의 관련이 확인되었다. 입원 당시의 PPS score는 생존을 예측하지 못했다. PPS score의 변화는 말기암환자에서 단일 PPS score 측정보다 더 민감한 지표일 수 있다. 차후 더 많은 환자들에서 이에 대한 다기관, 전향적 연구가 필요하다.

본 연구는 갑상샘 탄성초음파에서 탄성도 점수와 변형비를 이용한 방법이 양성과 악성결절의 감별진단에 유용한지를 평가하였다. 탄성초음파를 시행한 597명을 대상으로 하였으며, 세침흡인세포검사 결과를 바탕으로 후향적인 분석을 하였다. 갑상샘 결절의 양성과 악성에 따른 5단계의 탄성도 점수와 변형비의 차이분석은 카이제곱검정과 Mann-Whitney U test를 실시하였다. ROC 곡선분석을 통해 악성결절의 예측을 위한 탄성도 점수와 변형비의 최적의 cut off 값을 결정하였다. 양성과 악성결절 군의 분류에 따른 탄성도 점수의 동질성 비교와 변형비의 차이검증 결과에서 각각 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였으며(p=0.000), ROC 곡선분석에서 양성과 악성결절의 예측을 위한 탄성도 점수와 변형비의 AUC 0.842, 0.700, cut-off 값 3, 2.49로 결정되었다(p=0.001). 따라서 탄성도 점수와 변형비는 갑상샘 결절의 감별진단에 도움을 줄 수 있을 것이다.

Vertebral left atrial size can be used as a radiographic tool to evaluate left atrial size in dogs. Vertebral left atrial size has been studied in dogs; however, few studies have been conducted on breed-specific differences in healthy dogs. To study the median vertebral left atrial size differences by breed and to investigate the association between age, sex, body condition score, thoracic depth-to-width ratio, and vertebral left atrial size. A total of 220 dogs of the following breeds: Maltese (n = 73), Beagle (n = 30), Poodle (n = 41), Shih-tzu (n = 44), and Mongrel (n = 32) were reviewed retrospectively. Sex, body weight, age, and body condition score of each dog were collected. Thoracic radiography was conducted for dorsoventral and right/left lateral views in all dogs to measure the vertebral heart score, vertebral left atrial size, and thoracic depth-to-width ratio. No significant differences in the median vertebral left atrial size were found among the breeds. There were no effects of sex, age, body condition score, and thoracic depth-to-width ratio on vertebral left atrial size. There was a significant positive correlation between the vertebral heart score and vertebral left atrial size. Breed, age, sex, and chest conformation did not correlate with vertebral left atrial size.

We consider the problem of testing for outliers in generalized linear model. We proceed by first specifying a mean shift outlier model, assuming the suspect set of ourliers is known. Given this model, we discuss standard approaches to obtaining score test for outliers as an alternative to the likelihood ratio test.
