The purpose of this study was to provide acoustic data on the voice of the laryngectomized patients for more scientific and efficient voice rehabilitation. The phonation of prolonged /a/ of 9 electronic artificial larynx(AL) users, 5 esophageal(EP) speech users, and 2 tracheo-esophageal(TEP) voice users were recorded and analyzed using Multi-Speech. Habitual f0, mean f0, sd f0, max f0, min f0, jitter, shimmer, and NHR were compared among groups of subjects using t-test. The EP and TEP groups exhibited higher f0 compared to the AL group. The AL and TEP groups showed more stable f0 than the EP group. In addition, the quality of TEP and EP voices were comparatively better in terms of jitter, shimmer, and NHR.

This paper presents average method to detect Visual-Transient Evoked Potential from the human scalp electric potential measured by the ElectroEncephaloGram. To confirm the validity of average method, the average-process is performed with both stimulated and no-stimulated potentials respectively, and both results are compared. The specific waveform, which is visual-transient evoked potential, is produced only in the case of stimulated potential. It was found that a dc-drift, due to instrumentation errors and other noises, can produce significant changes in the evoked-potential waveform. This can be removed with a high-pass filter (cut-off frequency=0.5Hz).

본 연구는 떫은감 청도반시의 분말을 열수 추출하고 칼럼 추출하는 과정에서 획득한 PWE와 TEP에 대한 대사체 프로파일을 분석하고, 유리지방산을 처리한 HepG2 세포와 식이로 고지혈증을 유도한 Wistar계 흰쥐의 간조직을 사용하여 중성지질 및 콜레스테롤 대사 관련 유전자 발현을 측정하였다. 대사체 분석은 가스크로마토그래프-질량분석법과 액체크로마토그래프-질량분석법을 사용하였으며, PLS-DA 분석과 heatmap 분석을 실시한 결과 PWE는 떫은감 분말과 비교적 유사한 대사체 프로파일을, 그리고 TEP는 떫은감 분말과 매우 다른 대사체 프로파일을 가지고 있음을 확인하였다. 세포실험과 또한 세포실험에서 얻어진 결과를 검증하기 위해 수행된 동물실험에서 PWE와 TEP는 모두 SREBP1c와 FAS 유전자 발현을 감소하여 간의 지방축적을 감소시키는 것으로 관찰되었으나, 콜레스테롤 축적을 억제하는 효능은 PWE에 비해 TEP에서 우세하게 증가하는 것이 관찰되었다. 특별히 TEP는 SREBP2, HMGCR 유전자 발현을 억제하고 LDLR 유전자 발현을 촉진하는 것으로 나타났다. TEP는 탄닌 중 Gallic acid 그리고 장쇄지방산아미드인 Oleamide와 Palmitamide 함량이 유의하게 증가되었으므로, 향후 이들 성분과 타깃 유전자의 상관성을 분석하고, 이를 통해 시스템네트워크로 나타내어 대사체 프로파일에 따른 지질 및 콜레스테롤 대사 간 상호 영향을 추가적으로 연구해야 할 것으로 사료된다.

Purpose: To develop & to examine the effect of a Tailored Exercise Program (TEP) on physical fitness in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Method: In a two-group pre-and post-test design, from a total 41 participants. 21 were assigned th the experimental group find the remainder to the control group. The experimental group participated in a 4-day a week, 8 week program in which one session a week was by direct instruction with the self-help group and two sessions a week were by videotaped instruction at home by themselves. The control group did not receive any intervention. Results: The eight week TEP in patients with PD was found to be significantly effective in enhancing muscle strength, ankle flexibility, and balance. However instrumental activities of daily living was not changed by the intervention. Conclusion: These results suggest that TEP can have an effect on physical fitness in patients with PD. Further research with a larger sample and for a longer follow up period is needed to expand our understanding of the effects of TEP for patients with PD.

It is well known that the test and evaluation plan (TEP) is very crucial in the successful development of safety-critical systems. As such, this paper discusses an approach to the development of the TEP for a system that should meet safety requirements in the systems development process. It is studied how to incorporate the result of preliminary hazard analysis (PHA) in generating the safety requirements. It is also discussed how to deal with them when the system requirements (i.e., functions, performance, constraints, components, etc) and the safety requirements are integrated into one model. While doing so, we have constructed the required traceability among them, which is necessary and very useful when the safety requirements need to be corrected or be changed. The use of the traceability makes it possible to easily check out whether and how the safety requirements are properly incorporated in the system design process. Furthermore, without the verified traceability, the system cannot be changed or upgraded later. In order to implement the model on a computer-aided tool, we have constructed a database (DB) schema. As a result, the implemented model/DB allows to automatically generate TEP which can be used to measure the performance and safety level of the developed system.

A series of microporous PVDF membranes were prepared by isothermal immersionprecipitation of PVDF/TEP casting dopes in both soft and harsh coagulation baths. Morphologies of the membranes' top surfaces were found to depend strongly on the bath strength, which could be controlled by the TEP content in the bath. By changing the bath gradually from pure water to 70% TEP, the top surface evolved from a dense skin-like (asymmetric) to a totally open porous morphology (symmetric). The latter structure could similarly be obtained by precipitation of the same dope in an alcoholic bath, e.g., 1-butanol. Membrane distillation processes to desalt sodium chloride aqueous solutions were conducted using various prepared membranes and two commercial microporous membranes, PTFE (Toyo, Japan, code: J020A330R) and PVDF (GE, USA, code: YMJWSP3001). The permeation fluxes were compared and correlated with the morphologies of the tested membranes.

A Binary Decision Diagram (BDD) is a graph-based data structure that calculates an exact top event probability (TEP). It has been a very difficult task to develop an efficient BDD algorithm that can solve a large problem since it is highly memory consuming. In order to solve a large reliability problem within limited computational resources, many attempts have been made, such as static and dynamic variable ordering schemes, to minimize BDD size. Additional effort was the development of a ZBDD (Zero-suppressed BDD) algorithm to calculate an approximate TEP. The present method is the first successful application of a BDD truncation. The new method is an efficient method to maintain a small BDD size by a BDD truncation during a BDD calculation. The benchmark tests demonstrate the efficiency of the developed method. The TEP rapidly converges to an exact value according to a lowered truncation limit.

센서 레지스트리 시스템(SRS, Sensor Registry System)은 이기종 센서 네트워크에서 끊김 없는 의미 처리를 위하여 사용자에게 센서 정보를 제공한다. 불안정한 네트워크 상황에서의 원활한 서비스 제공을 위하여 빠른 근거리 사용자 이동 경로 예측 알고리즘(FCR, Fast and Close-Range Prediction) 기반의 SRS가 연구되었다. 이 연구는 경로 예측 기반의 SRS에서 이용되는 FCR 알고리즘이 지니는 한계를 극복하기 위하여 3-간선 패턴(TEP, Three-Edge Pattern) 기반의 경로 예측 알고리즘을 제안한다. TEP 알고리즘은 경로를 그래프로 표현할 때 사용자의 위치를 기준으로 이전 간선, 현재 간선, 다음 간선으로 패턴화 하여 학습하고, 이 패턴을 기반으로 하는 사용자의 이동 경로를 예측한다. 또한 실험 및 비교 평가에서, TEP 알고리즘이 FCR 알고리즘에 비해 높은 정확성을 지님을 보인다.

The purpose of this study was to determine the efficacy of electrode placement on procaine iontophoresis. Thirty-three healthy students with an age range of 19 to 34 years, were participated in this study. The subjects were randomly assigned into 3 groups. Each subjects received iontophoresis on the proximal 1/3 of volar surface of dominant forearm with soft cotton pad($3.5{\times}3.5cm$) soaked in 2 ml of 4% procaine hydrochloride (pH 5.1) at 4 mA for 10 minutes(total current 40 mA min) of anodal DC. In transversal electrode placement(TEP) group, dispersive electrode was placed on the proximal 1/3 of dorsal surface of the forearm. In longitudinal electrode placement (LEP) group and control group, dispersive electrode were placed on the distal 1/3 of volar surface of the forearm. After procaine iontophoresis, duration of anesthesia were evaluated at five minutes intervals on five random locations in the iontophoretically area using a 21-gauge sterile hypodermic needle pressed with 1 mm invagination until return the sharp pin-pricking pain sensation. The data were ana lysed with one-way ANOVA to determine signific~nt differences between groups. The results showed significantly differences in the local anesthetic duration between the 3 groups(p<0.001). The anesthetic durations of TEP group and LEP group were significantly longer when compared with control group(p<0.05). Anesthetic durations of TEP group and LEP group were not significantly difference, but anesthetic duration of LEP group tends to longer than TEP group. In view of these results, clinicians should consider the electrode placement method when performing the iontophoresis.

폴리메틸메타크릴레이트(PMMA, polymethyl methacrylate) 판재의 기존 물성에 영향을 주지 않는 범위에서 비할로겐계 난연제인 인계 난연제를 단량체인 메틸메타아크릴레이트를 괴상중합 하여 셀 주형 성형 법에 의하여 PMMA판재를 제조하였으며 난연제 함량에 따른 난연성, 가교제의 함량과 경화시간이 PMMA판재에 어떠한 영향을 미치는가를 고찰하였다. 난연제 함량이 증가할 수록 탄화길이는 감소, 차르양은 많아지며 난연 효과를 나타내었다. 또한 난연제의 함량이 증가할수록 난연성은 우수하였으나 경도가 낮아지는 경향이 있어 가교제를 3 wt.% 사용하여 경도를 증가 시켰으며, 가교제 첨가에 의해서 경화시간을 3시간에서 2시간으로 단축시킬 수 있었다.
