The nervus conarii provides sympathetic nerve innervation to the pineal gland, which is thought to be the primary type of stimulus to this gland. This underreported nerve has been mostly studied in animals. One function of the nervus conarii may be to activate pinealocytes to produce melatonin. Others have also found substance P and calcitonin gene-related peptide from the nervus conarii ending in the pineal gland. The following paper reviews the extant medical literature on the nervus conarii including its anatomy and potential function.

The purpose of this study was to define the content of requisite human structure and function knowledge needed for clinical knowledge of nursing practice. Subjects of human structure and function were divided into 10 units, and each unit was further divided into 21 subunits, resulting in a total of 90 items. Contents of knowledge of human structure and function were constructed from syllabus of basic nursing subjects in 4 college of nursing, and textbooks published by nurse scholars prepared with basic nursing sciences. The degree of need of 90 items was measured with a 4 point scale. The subjects of this study were college graduated 136 nurses from seven university hospitals in Seoul and three university hospitals located in Chonnam Province, Kyungbook Province, and Inchon. They have been working at internal medicine ward, surgical ward, intensive care unit, obstetrics and gynecology ward, pediatrics ward, opthalmology ward, ear, nose, and throat ward, emergency room, rehabilitation ward, cancer ward, hospice ward, and their working period was mostly under 5 years. The results were as follows: 1. The highest scored items of human structure and function knowledge necessary for nursing practice were electrolyte balance, blood clotting mechanism and anticoagulation mechanism, hematopoietic function, body fluid balance, function of plasma, and anatomical terminology in the order of importance. The lowest scored items of human structure and function knowledge necessary for nursing practice was sexual factors of genetic mutation. 2. The highest order of need according to unit was membrane transport in the living unit, anatomical terminology in movement and exercise unit, mechanism of hormone function in regulation and integration unit, component and function of blood in oxygenation function unit, structure and function of digestive system in digestive and energy metabolism unit, temperature regulation in temperature regulation unit electrolyte balance in body fluid and electrolyte unit, concept of immunity in body resistance unit, and genetics terminology in genetics unit.

Mass transfer behavior in wood was estimated through its microscopic structure. The diffusion coefficients which were decided by theoretical equations are influenced by different anatomical properties of wood. From the experiment, the moisture flux was linear to the square root of time. The diffusion coefficients had a regular tendency during the time elapse. During the modeling, it is necessary to understand the limitation of parameters and consider the particular situation to be simulated. In hardwood, because the apertures were not considered, tangential mass transfer simulation was totally different from experiment. As a result, a hardwood model design should consider the apertures which are even on the fiber walls.

Collagen fibers tens of nanometers in size, which constitute most of the corneal volume of the human eye, are layered in a uniform direction, and adjacent fiber layers are arranged at an angle of 90° to each other. According to the results of this study, the transmittance at 45° of interlayer rotation angle is highest, and higher than that of the 90° body structure. The transmittance is examined, concerning the polarization state of the incident light; circularly polarized light case shows higher transmittance than linearly polarized. Through this, a simulation to confirm the deformed structure of collagen fibers, which show higher transmittance than the anatomical structure of the cornea, is attempted.

The parasitic flowering plants obtain nutrients and water from their host plants through a parasitic organ, haustorium, which connects both structurally and physiologically host and parasite. The parasitism in angiosperms thus can be understood from the knowledge of the haustorial structure. The haustoria have evolve convergently and independently in several unrelated taxa; therefore, they have similar morphology. Many anatomical studies on the haustoria in several parasites in the pst have been carried out by light microscopy. Ultrastructural studies on the haustoria, which are started from the end of 1060s', have provided new information relating to the phenomenon of parasitism in angiosperms. The purpose of this paper is to introduce and compare the structure of haustoria between parasitic plants. The results may help an understanding of phylogenetic relationships of parasitic angiosperms. The haustoria of some families, such as Santalaceae, Orobancaceae, Scrophulariaceae, Loranthaceae (or Viscaceae), and Convolvulaceae (Cuscuta) will be discussed.

Over the last 30 years or so, it has been recognized that neurologic disorders could impair laryngeal function, and that neurogenic etiology could be discerned frequently. This has led collaborations between laryngologists and neurologists and focus on the management of neurogenic dysfunction of the larynx and pharynx, including central and peripheral disorder. The author introduced anatomical structure, nerve distribution and neurophysiology of the larynx for understanding its basic functions. The symptoms, diseases from laryngeal dysfunction and the development of diagnosis and management were also discussed.

본 연구는 뿌리썩이선충(Pratylenchus vulnus)이 옥수수뿌리조직을 침입했을 때, 조직의 해부학적.생화학적 변화를 밝힘으로써 식물과 선충의 상호관계를 이해하고, 이들 정보를 바탕으로 선충저항성 작물의 육종 및 선별에 활용하기 위함이다. 옥수수뿌리 표피를 뚫고 들어온 선충은 뿌리 피층에 자리를 잡고, 세포벽을 파괴하면서 다른 세포로 이동한다. 마침내 선충들은 피층의 내피와 세근의 기부에 밀집했다. P.vuinus의 암컷들은 세포내에 공간(cavity)을 형성하여 그 속에 알을 낳는 습성을 지니고 있다. 선충에 의한 주된 피해양상은 세포벽이 파괴되고 부서져서 공간을 형성하는 것으로 나타난다. 이러한 현상은 세근의 기부에서도 관찰된다. 선충의 피해로 야기된 옥수수 뿌리의 생화학적 변화는 선충접종구와 무접종구간 총단백질양과 esterase활력조사를 통해 비교.분석되었다. Denaturing gel 상에서 총단백질양의 비교는 유의한 차이를 나타내지 않았고, esterase 의 pattern 및 활력에서도 유의할 만한 차이는 발견되지 않았다.
