위성항법의 가시성, Dilution of Precision (DOP), 신호대잡음비 등과 같은 위치결정 성능지표는 개활지 환경과 같이 항법위성의 가시성이 좋은 지역에서 그 활용도가 높으며, 육상교통환경의 경우 그 활용도가 낮다. 본 논문은 육상교통환경에서 위성항법 신호를 활용하여 위치결정을 수행하는 경우 활용도가 높은 성능지표로 Sky View based DOP (SVDOP)을 제안한다. SVDOP은 Sky-View Factor(SVF)를 응용하여 개발되었으며, 기존의 SVF의 문제점을 극복할 수 있다. Sky-View 영상을 활용하여 특징점을 선택하고 이를 활용하여 DOP를 계산할 수 있다. 제안된 방법을 이용하는 경우 SVF 사용보다 육상교통환경에서 위치결정 성능 예측에 용이함을 확인할 수 있다.

Objectives : This study was to observe clinical application of auto-microneedle therapy system (AMTS) in patients with peripheral facial paralysis. Methods : 27 peripheral facial paralysis patients were observed after taking AMTS at Facial Palsy Center, Kyung Hee University Oriental Medicine Hospital from March 1, 2011 to January 9, 2012. We assessed the symptoms of facial paralysis with Yanagihara unweighted grading system, Sunnybrook facial grading system(SBGS) and facial disability index(FDI), and observed adverse events and total safety of the treatment. Results : The scores of facial palsy scales increased after AMTS in Yanagihara grading system and Sunnybrook facial grading system. AMTS-related adverse events were mild pain(5.9%) and fatigue(3.5%), which needed no extra treatment. The total safety evaluation was between 'safe' and 'nearly safe' level. There were no other serious adverse events. In addition, patients were satisfied with subjective improvement including facial tingling and numbness. Conclusions : AMTS can be applied as an adjunctive treatment for patients with peripheral facial paralysis due to its safety and clinical usefulness. It is easier to stimulate wide skin area in a short time. Further clinical research is required to investigate the effectiveness of ATMS in a more rigorous RCTs.

Purpose: We evaluated the psychometric properties of a questionnaire on the acceptance of the quality improvement information system (QIIS) among long-term care workers (mostly nurses). Methods: The questionnaire composes of 21 preliminary questions with 5 domains based on the Technology Acceptance Model and related literature reviews. We developed a prototype web-based comprehensive resident assessment system, and collected data from 126 subjects at 75 long-term care facilities and hospitals, who used the system and responded to the questionnaire. A priori factor structure was developed using an exploratory factor analysis and validated by a confirmatory factor analysis; its reliability was also evaluated. Results: A total of 16 items were yielded, and 5 factors were extracted from the explanatory factor analysis: Usage Intention, Perceived Usefulness, Perceived Ease of Use, Social Influence, and Innovative Characteristics. The five-factor structure model had a good fit (Tucker-Lewis index [TLI]=.976; comparative fit index [CFI]=.969; standardized root mean squared residual [SRMR]=.052; root mean square error of approximation [RMSEA]=.048), and the items were internally consistent(Cronbach's ${\alpha}=.91$). Conclusion: The questionnaire was valid and reliable to measure the technology acceptance of QIIS among long-term care workers, using the prototype.

Introduction: This study examined the depth of sedation and the usefulness of the monitoring tool in determining the level of sedation in patients undergoing third molars extraction under conscious sedation with midazolam. Materials and Methods: Twenty two patients undergoing third molars extraction at the department of Oral and Maxillofacial surgery, Ewha Womans Mokdong Hospital from February 2010 to April 2010 were analyzed. All patients were classified as American Society of Anesthesiologist (ASA) class I and had no contraindications tosedation. The bispectral index was recorded continually during surgery using a bispectral monitor. The initial sedation was accomplished using a 3 mg bolus of midazolam followed by a 2 mg bolus of midazolam until the level of sedation, at which the patient’s eyes were closed or the subject was responsive only to loud or repeated calling of their name, was reached. All subjects were surveyed with a postoperative questionnaire to evaluate the level of sedation. Results: The bispectral index (BIS) decreased approximately 5 minutes after midazolam administration, but increased at the local anesthesia injection and odontomy procedure. The amnestic effect was shown effectively in the early stages of surgery. Conclusion: Conscious sedation with intravenous midazolam is effective in achieving the effect of anxiolysis, analgesia and amnesia. The BIS is an objective and useful means of assessing the depth of sedation.

Purpose: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in children has become an important public health issue because of its high prevalence and severity. Several noninvasive methods for estimating NAFLD are under investigation. We aimed to evaluate the usefulness of serum ferritin as a biomarker of severity of pediatric NAFLD patients. Methods: A total of 64 NAFLD patient were enrolled from Severance Children's Hospital from March 2010 to February 2013. Serum ferritin levels, liver related laboratory tests, liver magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (2-dimensional [2D] proton density-fat fraction) and NAFLD severity markers were compared between obese group and overweight group. Correlation analyses were performed between serum ferritin and laboratory values including NAFLD severity markers. Results: In obese group, serum ferritin, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), total bilirubin, international normalized ratio (INR), MRI 2D proton density-fat fraction, aspartate aminotransferase (AST) to platelet ratio index (APRI) and fibrosis- 4 (FIB-4) (an index score calculated from platelet count, ALT, AST and age) were significantly higher than those of overweight group. NAFLD severity markers, APRI and FIB-4, and liver specific important laboratory values, AST, ALT, INR, cholesterol, triglyceride and low density lipoprotein show significant correlation with serum ferritin in NAFLD patients. Conclusion: Serum ferritin concentrations could be a candidate of useful severity marker in the pediatric NAFLD patients.

Objectives: Although several cases of lung diseases caused by indium have been reported in Japan, the United States and China, South Korea, which is estimated to have been the world's largest consumer of indium, has not yet established a criteria for the diagnosis of lung diseases caused by indium exposure. In this study, we tried to determine the applicability of the Krebs von den lungen-6, which has been widely recognized for its use with interstitial lung disease in Japan, as a biological exposure index for indium. Methods: Methods: The analysis of indium in serum was conducted by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and the analysis of KL-6 in serum was carried out using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit. Results: The indium levels in serum were distributed from below the detection limit to a peak of $125.78{\mu}g/L$, and the values of the KL-6 were distributed from 104.5 U/mL to 2162.2 U/mL. The serum indium and KL-6 showed good correlation ($R^2$=0.389,pfortrend=0.000) and smoking did not affect the KL-6. Conclusions: The usefulness of KL-6 as a specific biomarker for interstitial lung disease has been recognized. In addition, it is expected that effective prevention of health problems can be achieved by determining the lung-damage progress at an early stage according to individual susceptibility.

Background: Cubitus varus and cubitus valgus deformities are common complications of distal humeral fractures in children. We evaluated the usefulness of supracondylar dome osteotomy as a treatment option for adults with cubitus varus or valgus deformity developed during childhood. Methods: Ten patients who had received supracondylar dome osteotomy and stabilization with plates to treat cubitus varus or valgus deformity between July 2006 and August 2013 were included in this study. Their mean age at the time of surgery was $36.50{\pm}10.22years$. The mean follow-up duration was $54.80{\pm}32.50months$. We evaluated humerus-elbow-wrist angles (HEWA), improvements in the lateral prominence index (LPI) or medial prominence index (MPI), Mayo elbow performance scores (MEPS), and overall results in accordance with the Banerjee criteria. Results: For the six patients with cubitus varus, the mean postoperative HEWA, mean correction angle, and mean improvement in LPI were $9.72^{\circ}{\pm}3.95^{\circ}$, $27.67^{\circ}{\pm}10.75^{\circ}$, and $6.92%{\pm}3.40%$, respectively. For the four patients with cubitus valgus, the mean postoperative HEWA, mean correction angle, and mean improvement in MPI were $14.73^{\circ}{\pm}2.97^{\circ}$, $11.55^{\circ}{\pm}3.26^{\circ}$, and $11.33%{\pm}6.39%$, respectively. There was no significant difference between postoperative and preoperative mean MEPS. The subjective ulnar nerve symptoms were alleviated in all patients. The overall results were excellent in six and good in four patients. Conclusions: This study suggests that supracondylar dome osteotomy with secure fixation using double plates may be useful in correcting cubitus varus or cubitus valgus deformity, yielding good functional outcomes in adults.

본 연구의 목적은 DSI의 성별에 다른 유용성을 살펴보고자 하였다. 본 연구는 GRBAS에서 모두 0점을 받은 경기도 및 서울에 거주하는정상 한국인 30명(남자 15명, 여자 15명)을 대상으로 2011년 3월부터 6월까지 실험하였다. DSI를 구성하고 있는 파라미터인 최대 발성시간, 최대 기본주파수, 최저 강도, Jitter(%)는 CSL 4500(Kay Pentax. USA)을 이용하여 측정하였다. 검사자는 모든 피험자에게 실험조건과 절차에 대해서 설명해 주었으며, 본 실험에 앞서 시범을 보여주었다. 성(性)이 DSI에 미치는 영향을 살펴보기 위해서 Mann-Whitney 검정을 실시하였다. 본 실험 결과, 여성이 남성에 비해 최대 기본주파수는 높았지만 남녀간 DSI는 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다. 따라서 DSI는 음성장애의 심한정도를 살펴볼 수 있는 객관적인 측정도구로 유용하다고 생각한다.
