Tolosa-Hunt syndrome (THS) is characterized by painful ophthalmoplegia and diagnosed by the exclusion of other major diseases. This study was done to find the effectiveness of electroacupuncture at oculomotor muscles and herbal-med on a THS patient. We used this method and Bogan-san ($B\check{a}og\check{a}n-s\check{a}n$) without steroids and treated a THS patient who suffered from pain behind the right eye, ophthalmoplegia, ptosis, frontal headache and dysosmia. 18 days after admission, the symptoms were improved and almost gone. In conclusion, we suggest electroacupuncture at oculomotor muscles and Bogan-san ($B\check{a}og\check{a}n-s\check{a}n$) is effective to treat THS without steroids, and we recommend more studies of this method on THS.

The soft cancellation list (SCANL) decoding algorithm for polar codes runs L soft cancellation (SCAN) decoders with different decoding factor graphs. Although it can achieve better decoding performance than SCAN algorithm, it has high latency. In this paper, a fast simplified SCANL (Fast-SSCANL) algorithm that runs L independent Fast-SSCAN decoders is proposed. In Fast-SSCANL decoder, special nodes in each factor graph is identified, and corresponding low-latency decoding approaches for each special node is propose first. Then, syndrome check aided Fast-SSCANL (SC-Fast-SSCANL) algorithm is further put forward. The ordinary nodes satisfied the syndrome check will execute hard decision directly without traversing the factor graph, thereby reducing the decoding latency further. Simulation results show that Fast-SSCANL and SC-Fast-SSCANL algorithms can achieve the same BER performance as the SCANL algorithm with lower latency. Fast-SSCANL algorithm can reduce latency by more than 83% compared with SCANL, and SC-Fast-SSCANL algorithm can reduce more than 85% latency compared with SCANL regardless of code length and code rate.

In this paper we propose a simple decoding algorithm for the 4-ary lexicographic codes (or lexicodes) of length 10 with minimum distance 4, write $S_{10,4}$. It is based on the syndrome decoding method. That is, using a syndrome vector we detect an error and it will be corrected an error from the four parity check equations.

A new SCEE(Syndrome Check Error Estimation) decoding method for convolutional code and concatenated SCEE/RS (Reed-Solomon) conding scheme are proposed. First, we describe the operation of the decoding steps in the proposed algorithm. Then deterministic values on the decoding operation are drived when some combination of predecoder-reencoder is used. Computer simulation results show that the compuatational complexity of the proposed SCEE decoder is significantly reduced compared to that of conventional Viterbi-decoder without degratation of the $P_{e}$ performance. Also, the concatenated SCEE/RS decoder has almost the same complexity of a RS decoder and its coding gain is higher than that of soft decision Viterbi or RS decoder respectively.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of workers health behaviorals, oral health behaviorals and metabolic syndrome risk factors on oral health and to identify the relationship between these. and then, a basis data propose for integrative health promotion programs development and effective Management measures. Methods : The subjects were 4,600 workers working at a industrial place in North Gyeongsang Province, data were collected from July 13, 2010 to September 12, 2010. using the results of the subjects medical check-ups and Oral examinations, this study was performed. collected data included workers general characteristics, job characteristics, and smoking, drinking, exercise behavior as lifestyle factors, and waist measurement, fasting blood sugar level, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, the level of Triglyceride and HDL-cholesterol as metabolic syndrome risk factor indicator. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, chi-square test, correlation analysis, logistic regression using SPSS 18.0. Results : In results of the subjects medical check-ups, 14.1% were above the criterion value of waist measurement, 2.5% fasting blood sugar level, 8.5% hypertension, 16.8% Triglyceride level and 4.0% HDL-cholesterol respectively. according to oral examination results, showing that 43.3% inflammation of the gums. The inflammation of the gums was correlated with gender, age, dental clinic visit, scaling management, smoking, exercise behavior and high triglyceride level and hypertension of metabolic syndrome risk factor indicators. In addition, this result was statistically significant. Conclusions : Based on this study, the workers health should be managed actively and effectively by using periodical workers health check-ups. At a corporate level, the institutional supports were achieved and arranged for activation of regular oral health education programs, and the prevention plan of metabolic syndrome were needed for changing exercise behavior by conducting suitable exercise programs.

Let p be an odd prime number. We introduce simple and useful decoding algorithm for orthogonal Latin square codes of order p. Let H be the parity check matrix of orthogonal Latin square code. For any x ${\in}$ GF(p)$^{n}$, we call xH$^{T}$ the syndrome of x. This method is based on the syndrome decoding for linear codes. In L$_{p}$, we need to find the first and the second coordinates of codeword in order to correct the errored received vector.

The use of serial concatenated codes is an effective technique for alleviating the error floor phenomenon of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes. An enhanced sum-product algorithm (SPA) for LDPC codes, which is suitable for serial concatenated codes, is proposed in this paper. The proposed algorithm minimizes the number of errors by using the failed check nodes (FCNs) in LDPC decoding. Hence, the error-correcting capability of the serial concatenated code can be improved. The number of FCNs is simply obtained by the syndrome test, which is performed during the SPA. Hence, the decoding procedure of the proposed algorithm is similar to that of the conventional algorithm. The error performance of the proposed algorithm is analyzed and compared with that of the conventional algorithm. As a result, a gain of 1.4 dB can be obtained by the proposed algorithm at a bit error rate of $10^{-8}$. In addition, the error performance of the proposed algorithm with just 30 iterations is shown to be superior to that of the conventional algorithm with 100 iterations.

Pulse pressure is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. The aim of the present study was to assess the association between pulse pressure and metabolic syndrome in Korean men. The study subjects were 8,439 adults aged 40 to 64 years, who underwent health screening examination from January 2012 to December 2014 at the Health Promotion Center of one hospital in Gyeonggi-do for general health check-up. They include the metabolic syndrome absent group (Absent, n=3,078), the pre-metabolic syndrome group (Pre-MetS, n=4,242) and the metabolic syndrome group (MetS, n=1,119). Progressive increase in pulse pressure was demonstrated for increasing components of the metabolic syndrome (P<0.001). The pulse pressure according to the degree of the metabolic syndrome was higher in the pre-MetS and MetS groups compared to the Absent group (P<0.001). Systolic and diastolic blood pressure, total cholesterol, triglyceride, fasting glucose, and abdominal obesity positively correlated with pulse pressure (P<0.001).
