Background/Aims: The treatment of superficial esophageal neoplasms (SENs) in cirrhotic patients is challenging and rarely investigated. We evaluated the outcomes of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) to determine the efficacy and safety of treating SENs in patients with liver cirrhosis. Methods: The baseline characteristics and treatment outcomes of patients who underwent ESD for SENs between November 2005 and December 2017 were retrospectively reviewed. Results: ESD was performed in 437 patients with 481 SENs, including 15 cirrhotic patients with 17 SENs. En bloc resection (88.2% vs. 97.0%) and curative resection (64.7% vs. 78.9%) rates were not different between the cirrhosis and non-cirrhosis groups (p=0.105 and p=0.224, respectively). Bleeding was more common in cirrhotic patients (p=0.054), and all cases were successfully controlled endoscopically. The median procedure and hospitalization duration did not differ between the groups. Overall survival was lower in cirrhotic patients (p=0.003), while disease-specific survival did not differ between the groups (p=0.85). Conclusions: ESD could be a safe and effective treatment option for SENs in patients with cirrhosis. Detailed preprocedural assessments are needed, including determination of liver function, esophageal varix status, and remaining life expectancy, to identify patients who will obtain the greatest benefit.

In der Grammatik $f\"{u}r$ die Lernenden werden die deutschen Tempora nach dem lateinischen Vorbild dargestellt: $Pr\"{a}sens,\;Pr\"{a}teritum$, Perfekt, Plusquamperfekt, Futur I und Futur II. Und diese sechs Tempora werden in die drei Zeitstufen kIassifiziert: Gegenwart, Vergangenheit und Zukunft. Aber die Zeitformen $k\"{o}nnen$ nicht in direkter und geradliniger Weise auf bestimmte objektive Zeiten beziehen. Das $Verh\"{a}ltnis$ zwischen Zeitinhalt und Zeitform ist verwickelter und komplexer. Man denkt nach, wie viele Tempora es in der deutschen Sprache gibt und warum die Tempora Funktionen, die nicht nur Zeitinhalt, sondern auch andere Inhalte(z.B. modale) $ausdr\"{u}ken$, haben. Urn die Probleme zu $erl\"{a}utern$, sollen wir die deutschen Tempora von der lateinischen Tempuskategorie abtrennen und ein geeignetes Tempussystem $f\"{u}r$ die deutsche Sprache suchen. Dazu $m\"{u}ssen$ wir beobachten, Wie die deutschen Tempora konstruiert wurden. Im Lateinischen handelt es sich bei allen sechs Tempora um Verbformen, um bestimmte ($n\"{a}mlich$ die indikativischen) Formen des finiten Verbs. Im Deutschen aber finden wir unter den Tempora nur zwei richtige Verbformen $(Pr\"{a}sens\;und\;Pr\"{a}teriturn),\;die\;\"{u}brigen$ Tempora sind verbale Komplexe, drei zweiwortige (Perfekt, Plusquamperfekt, Futur I) und ein dreiwortiger (Futur II). Und das deutsche Tempussystem besteht aus den zwei Polen: Vergangenes und Nicht-Vergangenes oder $Temporalit\"{a}t\;und\;Atemporalit\"{a}t$. Die Tempusform $Pr\"{a}teritum\;geh\"{o}rt\;zu\;Temporalit\"{a}t$ und die Tempusform $Pr\"{a}sens\;zu\;Atemporalit\"{a}t$. Das $Pr\"{a}sens\;und\;das\;Pr\"{a}teritum$ sind die Grundtempora im Deutschen und die $\"{u}brigen$ Tempora sind die durch den Aspekt erweiterten und die zusammengesetzten Tempora. Sie haben deswegen die inneren Merkmale Aspekt und Modale $au{\ss}er$ Zeitbezug. Wir $k\"{o}nnen$ diese inneren Merkmale im Tempusgebrauch feststellen. Als Funktionen der Tempora der deutschen Sprache im Tempusgebrauch sind zu registrieren: Bezeichnung zeitlicher Gegebenheit, modale Implikationen, Aspektangaben und semantische Akzentuierungen. Und noch eins: Die Funktion des neutralen Referieren des Inhaltes durch das atemporale $Pr\"{a}sens$. Das $Pr\"{a}sens$ wird durch diese Referentfunktion zu dem Haupttempus auch in der geschriebenen Sprache. Trotzdem nennt man das $Pr\"{a}teritum$ in der geschriebenen Sprache das Haupttempus. Ist das $Pr\"{a}teritum$ dann in der Tat in der geschriebenen Sprache das Haupttempus? Genau genommen ist das $Pr\"{a}sens$ offenbar ein Haupttempus. Es wird nicht nur in der gesprochenen Sprache, sowohl auch in den geschriebenen nichtbelletristischen Texten $haupts\"{a}chlich$ benutzt. Aber nur die belletristischen Texte werden durch das $Pr\"{a}teritum$ beherrscht. Der Gebrauch des $Pr\"{a}teritums$ als Haupttempus $beschr\"{a}nkt$ sich nur auf die Belletristik. Wir glauben, die Untersuchung $\"{u}ber$ den Tempusgebrauch und die Tempusfunktion in den verschiedenen Textsorten sei besonders dem Nichtmuttersprachler wichtig, weil die Textsorten beim Tempusgebrauch eine Wahl des Tempus beeinflussen.

The purpose of this investigation was to compare the direct digital radiographic system with film-based digital imaging system using Ektaspeed and Ektaspeed Plus film with respect to image characteristics and detectability and evaluate the sensor noise with the use of subtraction method. Direct digital radiographic system which used was Sens-A-Ray system(Regam Medical Systems, Sundsvall, Sweden) and film-based digital imaging system was composed of Macintosh II ci computer, high resolution Sony XC-77 CCD camera and intraoral x-ray film(Kodak Ektaspeed film, Kodak Ektaspeed Plus film). Images were taken by using CCD sensor of Sens-A-Ray system, Ektaspeed film and Ektaspeed Plus film with variable exposure time(0.06s, 0.1s, 0.16s, 0.2s, 0.3s, 0.4s, 0.5s, 0.6s, O.8s, LOs), 5 times at each exposure time. And then ektaspeed films and ektaspeed plus films were digitized using CCD camera. Image groups were divided into 3 groups; Sens-A-Ray group(direct digital radiographic system), Ektaspeed group and Ektaspeed Plus group (film-based digital imaging system) They were assessed by the following three aspects; image density, image contrast and detectability and sensor noise of Sens-A-Ray system was also evaluated. The results were as follow : 1. S group showed higher density than E , EP group except at the low exposure time(p<0.01). 2. S group showed higher contrast than E,EP group except at the high exposure time(p<0.01). 3. All groups showed good detectability at the each proper exposure time. Lowest exposure time which shows maximum detectability in S,EP group(0.5s) was lower than that in E group(0.6s). 4. Sensor noise of Sens-A-Ray system generally increased according to exposure time. On the basis of the above results, it was considered that Sens-A-Ray system could show higher speed, higher contrast than Ektaspeed, Ektaspeed Plus film except at too high and low exposure time and the same detectability as the conventional intraoral film.

High burn-up transformation process in low temperature nuclear fuel oxides material was observed in the early sixties in LWR $UO_2$ fuels, but not studied in depth. Increasing progressively the fuel discharge burn-up in PWR power plants, this material transformation was again observed in 1985 and identified as an important process to be accounted for in the fuel simulations due to its expected consequence on fuel heat transfer and therefore on the fission gas release. Fission gas release was one of the major concerns in PWR fuels, mainly during transient or accidents events. The behaviour of such a material in case of rod failure was also an important aspect to analyse. Therefore several national and international programs were launched during the last 25 years to understand the mechanisms leading to the high burn-up structure formation and to evaluate the physical properties of the final material. A large observations database has been acquired, using the more sophisticated techniques available in hot cells. This large database is discussed in this paper, providing basis to build an engineering-model, which is based on phenomenological description data and information accumulated. In addition this paper has the ambition to construct the best logical model to understand restructuring.

Oxygen is a key factor in aerobic reactions and most biological activities. Visualization of oxygen distribution of a chemical process or biological system has been a very challenging object despite of its significance and potential impact. To monitor and visualize the spatial distribution of oxygen concentration, various techniques such as electro-chemical probe, polarographic electrode, LIF(laser-induced fluorescence) and so on have been introduced. Oxygen planar optode which utilizes the oxygen quenching of fluorescence light is one of the currently available methods for time-resolved visualization of oxygen distribution on a planar surface. In this study, we utilized VisiSens oxygen planar optode system to visualize the spatial distribution of oxygen concentration on leaves of Korean azalea. As a result, temporal variation of oxygen concentration distribution caused by respiratory activity of the leaf could be quantitatively monitored.

This paper examines the discussions related to image and signification through the theories of Roland Barthes. We have already been able to see through the studies of Semiotics and Anne H?nault that the denotation is distinguished from the connotation in the linguistic dimension. Through the analysis of the advertising image of Barthes, we have seen that the syntagmatic relationship can make the sense of the image objective. From this study, we also emphasized that it is possible to subjectively interpret images that deviate from the syntagmatic relationship. In addition, we examined the concepts of Studium and Punctum by Barthes. With this we have found that the definition of a personal meaning to objects has a theoretically clear position. Finally, we have been able to understand the concept of 'le sens obtus' through the article ${\ll}$ Le troisi?me sens ${\gg}$. The notion of 'sens obtus' makes it possible to realize that the objective and clear sense of object is not the one chosen primarily from the subject. By facing an object such as an image to be interpreted, the subject is placed in a situation where he is not compelled to choose a meaning but rather he chooses one of the possible senses. This makes it clear that the semantic levels provided by semiotic theories are limited to the analytic dimension.

The lexical decision task (LDT) commonly postulates the activation of semantic level. However, there are few studies for the feedback effect from semantic level. The purpose of the present study is to investigate whether the feedback effect from semantic level is facilitatory or inhibitory in Korean LDT. In Experiment 1, we manipulated the number of phonological syllable neighbors (PSN) and the number of semantic neighbors (SEN) orthogonally while orthographic syllable neighbor (OSN) is dense. In the results, the significant facilitatory effect was shown in words with many SEN. In Experiment 2, we examined same conditions as Experiment 1 but OSN was sparse. Although the similar lexical decision latency pattern was shown, there was no statistical significance. These results can be explained by the feedback activation from semantic level. If a target has many SENs and many PSNs, it receives more feedback activation from semantic level than a target with few SENs and PSNs.

In this paper, we studied facial impression construction with smartphones in a series of experiments with two smartphone applications: SmartRing and SystemSens+. In the first experiment, impressions of faces associated with different music genres (trot vs. classical) were compared to impressions formed from a facial image alone along the social warmth and intelligence dimensions. In the second experiment, the effect of similarity attraction was investigated by manipulating the extroversion of facial images. Results indicated that impressions of faces cannot only be constructed along the social warmth and intelligence dimensions, but can also be made more or less attractive based on their similarity to the viewer's personality. Our experiments provide interesting insights into facial impressions formed in a smartphone environment.
