In this paper, radially corrugated circular-type microstrip patch antenna was devised and manufactured for GPS (center frequency: 1.575 GHz). Radially corrugated circular-type microstrip patch antenna having radiational corrugation-patch contributed to add size reduction ratio by lowering the resonant frequency because the edge current also has the extended and perpendicular path. As a result, radially corrugated circular-type microstrip patch antenna has 28 % area reduction than planer circular-type patch antenna for linear polarization and 27.7 % area reduction than planer circular-type patch antenna for circular polarization. Radially corrugated circular-type microstrip patch antenna is suitable for miniaturized receive antenna for GPS which has the characteristic of gain 2.1 dBd, axiai ratio 1.3 dB, 2 dB axial bandwidth 15 MHz(0.9 %).

Objective : The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of the windlass mechanism in trail-walking shoe prototypes that can effectively support arches. A study of these effects should help with the development of a first-rate trail-walking shoe development guide for the distribution of quality information to consumers. Methods : The subjects were ten adult males who volunteered to participate in the study. Shoes from three companies, which will be referred to as Company S (Type A), Company M (Type B), and Company P (Type C), were selected for the experiment. The subjects wore these shoes and walked at a speed of 4.2 km/h, and as they tested each shoe, the contact area, maximum pressure average, and surface force were all measured. Results : Shoe Type A showed a contact area of $148.78{\pm}4.31cm^2$, Type B showed an area of $145.74{\pm}4.1cm^2$, and Type C showed an area of $143.37{\pm}4.57cm^2$ (p<.01). Shoe Type A demonstrated a maximum average pressure of $80.80{\pm}9.92kPa$, Type B an average of $85.72{\pm}11.01kPa$, and Type C an average of $89.12{\pm}10.88bkPa$ (p<.05). Shoe Type A showed a ground reaction force of $1.13{\pm}0.06%BW$, Type B a force of $1.16{\pm}0.04%BW$, and Type C a force of $1.16{\pm}0.03%BW$ (p<.05). Conclusion : The Type A trail-walking shoe, which was designed with a wide arch from the center of the forefoot to the front of the rearfoot showed excellent performance, however, more development and analysis of the windlass mechanism for a variety of arch structures is still necessary.

This study was conducted to evaluate the ecological attributes of forest types which were classified by cluster analysis in the natural forest of Mt. Odae on the basis of the vegetation data (232 sampling points) from the point-quarter sampling methods. For the classified types, the species composition was expressed by importance value to describe the stand structure and the species diversity was quantified using the Shannon's diversity index. Recognized forest types were 1) Quercus mongolica-Pinus densiflora-Betula ermanii forest type, 2) Mixed mesophytic forest type, 3) Q. mongolica forest type, 4) B. ermanii forest type. Species diversity indices of total and overstory were highest in the Mixed mesophytic forest type (3.465 and 2.942), and lowest in the B. ermanii forest type (0.118 and 0.832). In addition to that, Q. mongolica-P. densiflora-B. ermanii forest type was calculated as 3.226 and 2.565, and Q. mongolica forest type was calculated as 2.776 and 1.218 in total and overstory, respectively. It was considered that after the P. densiflora and B. ermanii first invaded and site condition became good, Q. mongolica-P. densiflora-B. ermanii forest type was dominated by Q. mongolica. Mixed mesophytic forest type showed the most stable stand structure with various species distributed uniformly. Q. mongolica forest type would preserve the present stand status for a while, and the B. ermanii in B. ermanii forest type would be pressed by other species over time.

Purpose: The objectives of this study were to categorize the conflict management types of preceptor nurses and determine the effects of these types on preceptors' role perception and core competencies. Methods: Data was collected from 192 preceptor nurses with at least two years experiences in general hospitals, from July 1 to July 31, 2022. Conflict management type, preceptor role perception, and core competency were investigated using structured instruments. The data was analyzed using K-means cluster analysis, Independent samples t-test, One-way ANOVA with Scheffé's test, and multiple regression analysis. Results: The conflict management types were categorized into four types; comprehensive type (cluster 1), integrating, obliging, compromising type (cluster 2), undifferentiated type (cluster 3) and obliging, avoiding type (cluster 4). The effect of conflict management types on preceptors' role recognition occurred in the following order of cluster 2 (integrating/obliging/compromising type), cluster 1 (comprehensive type), and cluster 4 (obliging/avoiding type). Next, cluster 1 (comprehensive type), cluster 2 (integrating/obliging/compromising type), and cluster 4 (obliging/avoiding type) were shown in the order of the impact on the core competencies of the preceptor. Conclusion: When preceptor nurses use a mixture of various attributes of conflict management evenly, they have been shown to demonstrate effective preceptor role recognition and core competencies. Therefore, it is proposed that future development of conflict management training programs for preceptor nurses should begin with identifying their conflict management type, followed by creating a program that addresses any deficiencies.

In the presence of clinical evidence and chest roentgenogram suggestive of bronchogenic carcinoma, reliance is almost wholly placed on Papanicolaou staining of the sputum, bronchoscopy, and biopsy of peripheral lesion, together referred to as the "diagnostic triad". However, bronchography remains relatively non-utilized. Our experience with 56 bronchograms in which the modality of bronchial obstruction, distance to obstruction and reduction rate of caliber in leading bronchus were used in an attempt to explain underlying chest pathology and operability of bronchogenic carcinoma, indicated as follows: 1. The bronchographic findings in bronchogenic cancer consist of malignant bronchial obstruction in which the modality of obstruction is classified as abrupt type, conical type and compressed type in incidence of 50.0%, 23.2% and 26.8%, respectively. 2. Abrupt type of bronchial obstruction is more common in hilar type and particularly in squamous cell and undifferentiated cell type of bronchogenic cancer. In this type of obstruction the inoperability revealed in 57.8% and resectability in 17.8%. 3. Conical type of obstruction was a sign of most malignancy, in which 61.5% was undifferentiated cell type and 38.4% was squamous cell type. All this type of obstruction was inoperable even feasibility was presumed in simple roentgenograms. 4. Compressed type of obstruction was more common in peripheral type of bronchogenic cancer and showed 50.0% of resectability. 5. The distance from carina to bronchial obstuction revealed average 3.8cm in undifferentiated type, 5.76cm in squamous cell type and 7.60am in adeno cell type of carcinoma. 6. The reduction rate of caliber in leading bronchus to obstruction (mm per unit cm lenghth of leading bronchus) revealed average 2.15mm/cm in undifferentiated type 1.90mm/cm in squamous cell type and 1.13mm/cm in adeno cell type of carcnoma. 7. The reduction rate of caliber in leading bronchus showed 2.14mm/cm in inoperable cases and 1.42mm/cm in resectable cases. 8. The modality of bronchial obstruction and estimation of the reduction rate of caliber seemed to be a most reliable key-point to decide feasibility of resection.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate whether Lonicera japonica(LJ) could inhibit LPS-induced type I IFN production. Methods: To evaluate inhibitory effect of LJ on type I IFN, we examined type I IFN, IRF-1, 7 and IL-10 production on LPS-induced macrophages using real time RT-PCR. Next, we observed the interaction of type I IFN, IRF-1, 7 and IL-10 using IL-10 neutralizing antibody. Finally we examined the activation of STAT-1, 3 using western blot. Results: LJ inhibited Type I IFN expression of mRNA and increased IL-10 expression of mRNA. Also LJ inhibited the level of IRF-1, 7 mRNA and the nuclear translocation of IRF-3. Further more, LJ reduced the activation of STAT-1, 3 which are involved in continuous secretion of immune cytokines. Blockade of IL-10 action caused a significant reduction of type I IFN and IRF-1, 7 than LPS-induced LJ pretreatment. Conclusions: LJ inhibits LPS-induced production of type I IFN by IL-10. This study may provide a clinical basis for anti-inflammatory properties of LJ.

This study was conducted to analyze the characteristics of women's body somatotypes by direct measurements. Through the classification of degree of obesity and silhouette, women in their 20s who have a great interest in body somatotype can grasp their real somatotype and recognize their obesity rate and silhouette easily. The results are as follows: 1. Average sizes of subjects for this study were: height 160.3cm, weight 52.2kg, bust 83.7cm, waist 65.7cm, hips 91.1cm. And average values of each body mass index were: BMI 20.3, Rohrer Index 1.27, Vervaeck Index 84.8. 2. For the BMI value, the Average Numeric Index of normal somatotype was the highest, 76.9%. The Rohrer Index of underweight somatotype was 34.3% and the Average Numeric Index was 1.12. In the Vervaeck Index, underweight somatotype was 35.7%, and the average Numeric Index was 79.1, while the overweight somatotype was 7.4% of the Vervaeck Index and 100.8 of the Average Numeric Index. So the index which had the largest range of normal values from the same subjects, was the BMI, then the Rohrer Index, and finally, the Vervaeck Index in that order. 3. In the result of sorting bodies with silhouettes, when drop value were used to sort, N type (normal somatotype) was 69.4%, H type (one has similar sizes in waist size and hips) was 20.4% and A type (one has big hips) was 10.2% in that order. Among people in their early 20s, A type was 12.1%. H type was high, 22.8%, among women in their late 20s. When Sinozaki's method of classifying body types was used, ideal somatotype was 86.6%, A type was 7.4%, I type was 5.6% and X type was 0.5%. Women in their late 20s showed higher rates of ideal somatotype, the rates of A type and I type were lower than women in their early 20s.

In this paper, we investigate the [p, q] - φ order and [p, q] - φ type of f₁ + f₁, ${\frac{f_1}{f_2}}$ and f₁ f₁, where f₁ and f₁ are analytic or meromorphic functions with the same [p, q]-φ order and different [p, q]-φ type in the unit disc. Also, we study the [p, q]-φ order and [p, q]-φ type of different f and its derivative. At the end, we investigate the relationship between two different [p, q] - φ convergence exponents of f. We extend some earlier precedent well known results.
