  • Purpose: The clinical implication of p53 mutation in gastric cancer is still unclear, as shown by the discordant results that continue to be reported in the literature. Materials and Methods: To assess p53 gene mutation, tumor p53 overexpression, and serum anti-p53 antibody, we employed a polymerase chain reaction-single strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) analysis, an immunohistochemistry using monoclonal antibody DO-7, and an enzymelinked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), respectively. Results: Of 169 surgical specimens of gastric cancer, mutation at exon $5\∼8$ of the p53 was identified in 33 ($19.5\%$) and was significantly correlated with lymph node metastasis. Overexpression of p53 was found in 62 specimens ($36.7\%$) and had a significant correlation with tumor differentiation. Serum anti-p53 antibody was positive in 18 patients ($10.7\%$). Twenty-three of the mutated tumors ($69.7\%$) and 39 of the non-mutated tumors ($28.7\%$) displayed immunoreactivity. Twelve of the immunopositive tumors ($19.4\%$) and 6 of the immunonegative tumors produced anti-p53 antibody. These differences were statistically significant (P<0.001 and P=0.005, respectively). There was no significant difference in survival according to the mutation of p53. Conclusion: Mutation and overexpression of p53 can be easily detected by immunohistochemistry. However, standardization of the immunohistochemical staining method, as well as guidelines for interpreting the stained result, will produce concordant results and thereby improve clinical application.

  • Passive metal forms an interfacial diffuse layer on the surface of passive film by its reaction with $H^+$ or $OH^-$ ions in solution depending on solution pH. There is a critical pH, called pH point of iso-selectivity ($pH_{pis}$) at which the nature of the diffuse layer is changed from the anion-permeable at pH<$pH_{pis}$ to the cation-permeable at pH>$pH_{pis}$. The $pH_{pis}$ for a passivated Fe was determined by examining the effects of pH on the thickness of passive film and on the dissolution reaction occurring on the passive film under a gavanostatic reduction in borate-phosphate buffer solutions at various pH of 7~11. The steady-state thickness of passive film formed on Fe showed the maximum at pH 8.5~9, and further the nature of film dissolution reaction was changed from a reaction producing $Fe^{3+}$ ion at $pH\leq8.5$ to that producing $FeO_2{^-}$ at $pH\geq9$, suggesting that the $pH_{pis}$ of Fe is about pH 8.5~9. In addition, the passive film formed at pH 8.5~9, $pH_{pis}$, was found to be the most protective with the lowest defect density as confirmed by the Mott-Schottky analysis. Pitting potential was decreased with increasing $Cl^-$ concentration at $pH\leq8.5$ due probably to the formation of anion permeable diffuse layer, but it was almost constant at $pH\geq9$ irrespective of $Cl^-$ concentration due primarily to the formation of cation permeable diffuse layer on the film, confirming again that $pH_{pis}$ of Fe is 8.5~9.

  • 인산이 과다하게 집적된 경작년수가 3, 8 및 16년 된 시설 재배지 토양을 대상으로 작물 연속재배에 따른 토양 무기태 인산의 형태별 함량 변화를 조사하고자 pot 재배실험을 수행하였다. 각 작물재배 전에 인산질 비료로서 용성인비를 사용하여 0, 100 또는 $200kg\;P\;ha^{-1}$(추천시비량), 200 또는 $400kg\;P\;ha^{-1}$(추천시비량의 2배)의 3수준으로 처리하여 옥수수-배추-배추-옥수수를 연속 재배하면서 토양 총 인산, 유효 인산 및 토양 무기태 인산의 형태별 함량을 정량하였다. 작물 재배 전 토양은 Ca-P와 Al-P 가 무기태 인산의 주성분으로서 총 인산에 대한 비율은 30% 이상이었다. 토양 중 이용성 인산과 Bray-1 P 간의 상관계수는 $0.839^{**}{\sim}0.952^{**}$, Lancaster P 와는 $0.895^{**}{\sim}0.967^{**}$, Olsen P 와는 $0.491^{**}{\sim}0.821^{**}$로서 토양 이용성 인산의 함량과 토양 유효인산 함량간에는 유의성 높은 정의 상관관계가 존재하였다. 작물재배에 따라 토양 이용성 인산의 감소량과 작물에 의해 흡수된 인산량 간에는 고도의 정의 상관관계가 ($r=0.644^{**}{\sim}0.822^{**}$) 존재하였다. 토양 이용성 인산 함량의 작물 재배회수에 따른 감소 경향은 1차 속도반응식으로 표현할 수 있었으며, 이 식을 이용하여 토양 이용성 인산의 함량이 $0.2mg\;P\;kg^{-1}$까지 감소하는데 소요되는 작물 재배 회수는 각 토양에 대하여 26~33회로 예측되었다. 토양 Al-P의 함량은 작물재배 기간동안 변화가 작았으며 작물의 인산 흡수량과는 상관관계가 없었다. 인산질 비료의 시용량과 관계없이 토양 총 인산에 대한 Fe-P의 비율은 작물 재배에 따라 증가하였다. 토양의 Ca-P 비율은 작물재배 전 토양에서도 30% 이상으로 매우 높은 수준에도 불구하고, 인산 무처리구에서도 작물 재배에 따라 지속적으로 증가하는 경향이었다. 작물 연속재배에 따라 토양 총 인산에 대한 reductant soluble-P의 비율은 인산 처리구에서는 변화가 거의 없었으나 인산 무처리구에서는 증가하는 경향이었으며, 토양의 residual-P의 비율은 인산질 비료의 시용량과 관계없이 작물 재배에 따라 감소하였다.

  • 본 시험에서 건초(티머시, 알팔파 및 클라인)와 짚류(톨페스큐 및 볏짚)의 buffer 용해도와 단백질 분획이 실시되었으며, 조사료 자원의 buffer 추출이 $In$ $vitro$ 발효 성상, 분해율 및 가스($CO_2$$CH_4$) 생성량에 미치는 효과를 조사하였다. 다른 조사료에 비해 총 단백질 중 buffer 가용성 조단백질과 A fraction은 알팔파 건초에서 각각 61% 및 41.77%로 가장 높았으며 볏짚에서 가장 낮았다(각각 42.8% 및 19.78%). 총단백질 중 B1 fraction은 조사된 조사료간 비교적 큰 차이를 보이지 않았으나 B2 fraction에서는 다른 조사료(6.34~8.85%)에 비하여 톨페스큐짚(10.05%) 및 클라인 건초(12.34)%에서 다소 높은 수준을 보였다. 총 단백질 중 B3 fraction이 차지하는 비율은 톨페스큐짚에서 38.49%로 가장 높았으나 다른 조사료 자원 간에는 큰 차이가 없었으며, C fraction의 경우 볏짚에서 가장 높은 비율(15.05%)을 보였다. 모든 사료에서 배양 개시 후 3시간(P<0.01) 및 6시간(P<0.05)에서 buffer 추출 전에 비해 추출 후 배양액의 pH가 증가되었으며, 배양 6시간(P<0.05) 및 12시간(P<0.001)에서 다른 사료에 비해 티모시 건초 및 알팔파 건초로부터의 pH가 낮았다. 배양액의 암모니아 농도는 모든 배양시간에서 가용성 물질의 추출 전 후에 다른조사료에 비해 알팔파 건초에서 가장 높았으나 모든 사료의 추출효과는 배양 3시간(P<0.01)에서만 나타났다. 배양액의 총 VFA 농도는 배양 24시간까지 알팔파 건초에서 가장 높았던 반면 톨페스큐짚과 볏짚에서 가장 낮았다. 또한 모든 조사료에서 buffer 추출 전에 비하여 추출후에 총 VFA 농도가 감소되었다(P<0.01~P<0.001). Acetic acid ($C_2$)의 조성 비율에서는 배양 6시간까지 추출 전에 더 높았으나(P<0.001) 사료 간 차이는 없었다. Propionic acid ($C_3$) 조성 비율 역시 배양 개시 후 3, 24 및 48시간(P<0.001)에서 추출 전에 더 높았으며, 6 및 12 시간의 배양액에서 대부분 건초(티모시, 알팔파 및 클라인)와 짚류(톨페스큐짚 및 볏짚) 간 차이가 있는 것으로 조사되었다(P<0.05). 그러나 butyric acid ($C_4$) 조성비율의 경우 대부분의 배양시간에서 사료 간 차이는 없었다. 건물에서의 분해율 관련 parameter 중 a 값은 조사된 전체 조사료에서 buffer 추출 전이 추출 후에 비해서 높았으며(P<0.001), 다른 조사료에 비해 톨페스큐짚과 볏짚에서 크게 낮았다(P<0.05). 또한 b 값의 경우 역시 추출 전에 비해 추출 후에서 현저히 낮았으나(P<0.001) 사료 간 차이는 없었다. 볏짚을 제외한 조사료에서 추출 후에 비해 추출 전의 건물 유효분해율(EDDM)이 더 높았다(P<0.001). 조단백질에서의 a, b 및 c 값은 추출 전에 비해 추출 후에서 현저히 낮았으나(P<0.05) 사료 간 차이는 없었다. 조단백질 유효분해율(EDCP)에서는 다른 조사료 종류에 비해 톨페스큐짚과 볏짚에서 낮았다(P<0.05). 한편, NDF의 경우 a 값과 b 값(P<0.01) 및 NDF 유효분해율(EDNDF, P<0.001)은 추출 후에 비해 추출 전에 더 높았으나(P<0.01) 사료 간 차이는 보이지 않았다. 반추위미생물에 의해 사료분해과정 중 생성되는 $CO_2$ 량도 24시간 배양까지는 추출 전에 더 많았으며(P<0.05~P<0.001), 톨페스큐짚과 볏짚에 비해 건초 형태의 조사료로부터의 $CO_2$ 생성량이 더 많았다(P<0.05~P<0.01). 메탄가스($CH_4$) 생성량 역시 모든 배양시간에서 추출 전에 비해 추출 후에 크게 감소되었으며(P<0.01~P<0.001), 12~24시간을 제외하고는 짚류에 비해 건초에서 현저히 높은(P<0.05) 것으로 나타났다. 본 시험의 결과를 종합하면, 조사료 자원에 대한 buffer 용해도와 단백질의 분획이 $In$ $vitro$ VFA 농도와 분해율 및 gas ($CO_2$$CH_4$) 발생량 간 상호 밀접한 관계를 보이는 것으로 여겨진다. 이에 따라 조사료 이용 효율 개선을 위해 조사료자원에 대한 buffer 용해도와 단백질 분획을 반추동물 TMR 조제에 활용할 필요가 있는 것으로 여겨진다.

  • Objective : The purpose of this study was to identify characteristics of patients' self-perceived health in traditional Korean medical facilities. Method : This research was conducted based on the survey on patients whom have visited traditional Korean medical facilities in 2011 by the Ministry of Health and Welfares and Korean Institute for Health and Social Affairs. Using a sample of 3,931 (1,180 male and 2,751 female) outpatients' self-perceived health based on the data from usage and consumption of Korean Medicine. 'Healthy', 'Fair', and 'Poor Health' were used to measure patients' self-perceived health status. The data was analyzed by frequency, t-test, cross correlation analysis and multiple logistics regression analysis using the SPSS program package. Results : Sex(P<0.001), age(P<0.001), marital status(P<0.001), education(P<0.001), employment status(P<0.001), occupation(P<0.001), health insurance(P<0.001) and income level(P<0.0001) showed statistical significance. Main Treatment Facilities(P<0.001), experience of taking Korean medicine(P=0.032), experience of receiving acupuncture treatment(P<0.001), number of visits(P<0.001), medical expense (P=0.005), and subjective health status after the treatments showed statistical significance for Korean herbal medicine(P=0.038), acupuncture (P=0.001), cupping therapy(P=0.006), oriental physiotherapy(P=0.003), and treatment satisfaction(P<0.001). For subjective health status based on suffering disorders in the past three months, the response of poor health was higher in the group suffering recent illnesses. Statistical significance was seen in hypertension (P=0.002), arthritis(P<0.001), lumbar pain(P<0.001), diabetes mellitus(P=0.001), stroke(P<0.001), hwa-byung (P=0.001), gastric disorders(P=0.021), common cold(P<0.001), ankle sprain(P<0.001), muscular injury(P<0.001), lumbar sprain(p=0.009) and fracture(P=0.03). Also the number of diseases during the past three months showed statistical significance(P<0.001). Statistical significance was also seen in Level of knowledge(P<0.001), route of information(P<0.001), reliability of Korean medicine(P=0.003), insurance coverage(P=0.005), medical costs(P<0.001), and future willingness to use Korean medicine(P<0.001). As a result of the multiple logistics regression analysis, risks of subjective poor health statistically increased in female population, elderlies, medicaid beneficiaries, less educated, higher medical expense, and more disorders during the past three months. Conclusion : Patients' self-perceived health status has significant differences with each variables such as sex, age, marital status, education, health insurance, medical expense, number of diseases.

  • The internal transcribed spacer regions (ITS I, 5.8S and ITS II) of the ribosomal DNAs were amplified from Korean isolates of Phytophthora spp. and sequenced to characterize them. Sequences from 33 isolates previously identified as P. boehmeriae, P. cactprum, P. cambivora, P. capsici, P. cinnamomi, P. erythroseptica, P. infestans, P. megasperma, P. melonis, P. nicotianae, P. palmivora and P. sojae were compared with published sequences, and a phylogenetic tree was produced. All isolates belonging to 10 species, P. cactorum, P. cambivora, P. capsici, P. cinnamomi P. citricola, P. infestans, P. nicotianae, P. palmivora and P. sojae were clearly clustered into published isolates of each species above 97% bootstrap value. Cucurbits isolates of Phytophthora previously identified as either P. melonis or P. drechsleri showed distinct evolutionary lineages from the P. megasperma was closely related to isolates of P. cryptogea-P. drechsleri showed distinct evolutionary lineages from the P. cryptogea-P. drechsleri complex group, indicating that P. melonis is a valid species. A Korean isolate of P. megasperma was closely related to isolates of P. erythroseptica showed distant genetic relationship with published isolates of P. erythroseptica (CBS 956.87). It is probable that the two Korean isolates could be genetically different from foreign isolates or misidentified. A grouping of species according to ITS sequence divergence matched, to some degree, the broad classification based on type of papilla. However, a separation of semi-papillate species and papillate species was not wvident in this study.

  • Objectives : The purpose of this research is to examine the effects of the goal achievement orientation of the students in dental-hygiene practice classes on their self-efficacy and on their adaptation to and satisfaction with their major. Methods : A survey was conducted among the dental-hygiene students in schools located in the Daegu region on October 24-31, 2011. A total of 212 accomplished questionnaires were gathered as sources of final analytical data. Statistical analysis was conducted on the collected data, using the SPSS 19.0 program. Results : 1. The students who had good personal relationships(p=.000) and who chose their major and school based on their aptitude(p=.029) were found to have a higher degree of satisfaction than those who did not have good personal relationships and who did not choose their major and school based on their aptitude. 2. Self-confidence(p=.004), self-control efficacy(p=.000), mastery approach(p=.000), and performance approach(p=.003) were found to have positive correlations with major adaptation while task difficulty preference(p=.000) was found to have a negative correlation with the same. 3. Self-confidence(p=.004), self-control efficacy(p=.000), mastery approach(p=.000), and performance approach(p=.045) were also found to have a positive correlation with major satisfaction while task difficulty preference(p=.000) was found to have a negative correlation with the same. 4. Mastery approach(p=.000) in goal achievement orientation was found to have a positive effect on self-efficacy while mastery avoidance(p=.001) was found to have a negative effect on the same. Mastery avoidance showed the greatest effect on self-confidence(p=.000) while mastery approach showed the greatest effect on self-control efficacy(p=.000) and task difficulty preference(p=.000). 5. In goal achievement orientation, mastery approach(p=.000) was found to have a positive effect on major adaptation while mastery avoidance was found to have a negative effect on the same. Meanwhile, with regard to self-efficacy, self-control efficacy(p=.037) and task difficulty preference(p=.008) were found to have positive effects on major adaptation. 6. In the case of major satisfaction, mastery approach(p=.000) in goal achievement orientation was found to have a positive effect on it, and in self-efficacy, self-control efficacy(p=.038) and task difficulty preference(p=.002) were found to have positive effects on it. Conclusions : Accordingly, to raise the level of the dental-hygiene students' adaptation to and satisfaction with their major, the students should be given appropriate tasks so that they can raise their mastery goal, and they should be encouraged to raise their approach goal rather than their avoidance goal. In addition, the students should be provided assistance in setting self-expectations and in developing confidence in their capabilities.
