This study carried out submerged area due to Dam construction in the near future. It includes species classification of plant, survey of community structure, examination of pollutant load and assessment of water quality impact. The vascular plants of this area are listed 224 taxa; 64 families, 168 genera, 193 species, 30 varieties and 1 form. This study area is classified into total 21 communities, most community was consist of grass vegetation. Among the communities, Erigeron annuus ($869,286m^2$, 22%) community was dominant and Erigeron annuus-Avena fatua comminity (16%) was subdominant until May, and then Erigeron canadensis community occupied most area to $1,774,985m^2$ (32%) from May to July. For the evaluation of water quality impact due to submerged macrophyte, nutrient release test was conducted both dead body macrophyte and living body macrophyte. The results of release test show that T-N is not released at dead body macrophyte, but it is released at living body macrophyte, especially living body Artemisia priceps var. orientalis shows 1.436mgN/g. At release test of dead body macrophyte, T-P release rate of Erigeron annuus shows 0.500mgP/g at the top of them and it also shows 0.436mgP/g at Erigeron annuus of living body macrophyte. T-N load of submerged macrophyte shows 0.76% by comparison of total load on watershed and T-P load of that shows 3.61%. In case of removal macrophyte for reduction of pollutant load in submerged area, T-N load of submerged macrophyte changes from 0.76% to 0.15% by comparison of total load on watershed and T-P load of that changes from 3.61% to 0.72%.

A key drug for treatment of EGFR mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer is epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI). While the dosage of many general anti-tumor drugs is adjusted according to the patient body surface area, one uniform dose of most TKIs is recommended regardless of body size. In many cases, dose reduction or drug cessation is necessary due to adverse effects. Disease control, however, is frequently still effective, even after dose reduction. In this study, we retrospectively reviewed the characteristics of 26 patients at Fukuoka University Hospital between January 2004 and January 2015 in whom the EGFR-TKI dose was reduced with respect to progression free survival and overall survival. There were 10 and 16 patients in the gefitinib group and the erlotinib group, respectively. The median progression-free survival in the gefitinib group and the erlotinib group was 22.4 months and 14.1 months, respectively, and the median overall survival was 30.5 months and 32.4 months, respectively. After stratification of patients by body surface area, the overall median progression-free survival was significantly more prolonged in the low body surface area (<1.45 m2) group (25.6 months) compared to the high body surface area (>1.45 m2) group (9.7 months) (p=0.0131). These results indicate that low-dose EGFR-TKI may sufficiently control disease without side effects in lung cancer patients with a small body size.

최근 들어 정보통신기술과 의료기술의 통합에 관한 관심이 증가되면서 센서네트워크를 인체에 적용하고자 하는 WBAN(Wireless Body Area Networks)에 관한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 기존의 센서네트워크 기술은 WBAN에 이용될 수 있는 가능성을 가지고 있으나, 몇 가지 제약사항을 가지고 있다. 특히 신체의 각 센서는 신체의 각 부분을 관통하여 통신해야 할 가능성이 크므로 자유공간인 센서네트워크와는 상당히 다른 네트워킹 환경을 가진다. 따라서 WBAN에 관한 연구는 기존의 센서네트워크와는 다른 인체의 특성을 고려한 다양한 영역을 연구의 대상으로 하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 센서네트워크와는 다른 WBAN의 환경적인 특성을 조사하고, WBAN의 개념이 도입된 2001년 전후부터 SLR(Systematic Literature Review)기법을 이용하여 WBAN의 연구 경향을 체계적으로 조사한다. 이에는 연구 분류와 연구자의 특성 등이 포함된다. 조사 결과를 요약하고 향후 연구 과제를 전망한다.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of modified fasting therapy on the changes of body compositions. Methods: We analyzed the medical records of 33 patients, who carried out modified fasting therapy at Dunsan Korean Medicine Hospital of Daejeon University from January 1st, 2011 to December 30th, 2015. They went through reducing food intakes period (7 days), fasting period (14 days) and refeeding period (14 days). Body compositions (weight, body mass index, skeletal muscle mass, percent body fat, basal metabolic rate, waist-hip ratio, visceral fat area) were reviewed at each state. And then the data was analyzed. Results: The body composition values (weight, body mass index [BMI], skeletal muscle mass, percent body fat, basal metabolic rate, waist-hip ratio, visceral fat area) decreased during the fasting therapy period, as a whole. The weight, BMI, percent body fat and visceral fat area decreased during the reducing food intakes period, the fasting period and the refeeding period. The skeletal muscle mass and basal metabolic rate significantly decreased during the reducing food intakes period and the fasting period, and insignificantly increased during the refeeding period. Conclusions: Results from this investigation showed that modified fasting therapy using fermented herbal medicine have positive effects on changes of body compositions.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of local heating and cooling of various body parts on the skin temperature of the exposed extremities including neck. Hot pack was used to warm up the body of seven participants for 15 minutes and it was removed as the temperature of the hot pack decreased after 15minutes of warming. Thermograms of body surface with and without hot pack were analyzed intensively to observe the efficiency of the local heating of shoulder, abdomen, back waist, and foot on the skin temperature of ten area of the subjects' body. The results indicated that the absolute skin temperature of front upper arm and thigh was significantly higher depending on the area of heating, especially, in case of abdomen and foot heating, which was not observed at the back of the body. The rate of skin temperature of extremities such as finger, palm and foot was significantly different depending on the body area of local heating. Generally, it was found that back waist heating was not efficient to warm up and maintain the skin temperature of the body after removing the hot pack.

무선 신체망 (WBAN: Wireless Body Area Network)은 생체 신호를 검출하고 전송하기 때문에 인간의 생명과 직결되어 있다 그러므로 무선 신체망은 다른 망과 비교해 망의 신뢰성이 극도로 높아야 하기 때문에 이 신뢰성과 관련된 연구가 매우 중요한 분야로 부각되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 다중 오류 (multi-type failures) 가 발생한 무선 신체 망에서 노드의 오동작들에 대해 분석하고 오동작 분석에 대한 새로운 모델을 제시한다. 오동작 모델링을 위해, 각 노드들을 라우팅 기능의 유무에 따라 분류하고, 노드의 에너지가 완전 소비되었거나 노드가 악의적인 공격에 의해 오류가 발생되었을 경우 각 노드들의 동작을 세미 마르코프 프로세스 (Semi-Markov Process)를 이용하여 모델링하였다. 본 논문에서 제시된 모델은 다중 오류 (multi-type failures) 환경에서 무선신체망의 신뢰성 분석에 매우 유용하다.
