The unroofed coronary sinus syndrome is a spectrum of cardiac anomalies in which part or all the common wall between the coronary sinus and the left atrium is absent. This defect is part of a developmental complex which includes absence of the coronary sinus and termination of a persistent left superior vena cava in the left atrium. Recognition of this complex is important so that interruption or diversion of the left superior vena cava may be done to prevent subsequent central nervous system complications. Surgical correction uses an intraatrial baffle to divert flow from the left superior vena cava to right atrium and to close the atrial septal defect. This report describes a 7 years old female patient in whom the left superior vena cava was identified preoperatively and the complex [unroofed coronary sinus syndrome, common atrium, mitral valve cleft] recognized at the time of operation. Surgical correction, following repair of cleft mitral valve, utilized a Dacron patch baffle to route the left caval blood to the right atrium and included closure of the atrial septal defect

A model, which can analyze the hydrological performance for small hydropower(SHP) plants having no flow duration characteristics has been studied and developed. System performance of existing SHP plant under operating was analyzed by using the developed model. The annual operational rate of SHP plant showed that the data were in good agreement with predicted results from the model. Based on these results, several SHP sites to be exploited were selected and the performance characteristics were analyzed by using the developed model. Also, primary design values such as design flow rate, plant capacity, and operational rate were suggested. As a result, it was found that the methodology used in this study is useful tool to predict the hydrological system performances of SHP sites.

Salt accumulation is frequently experienced in soils under protected cultivation. Since protected cultivation does not have rainfall and resulting infiltration, salt accumulation in the soils is inevitable. In this study, analyzed were chemical charecteristics of soils under protected cultivation to investigate the factors which may contribute the salt accumulation. Soil samples were collected from 99 protected cultivation facilities around An-sung Gun, Gyungki-Do and analyzed for electrical conductivity, pH, organic matter con-tents. The results showed that there was no significant trend of changes in electrical conductivity and pH along cultivation years. the only factor influencing salt accumulation was irrigation type. Soils in facilities using drip irrigation showed higher electrical conductivity than those using diversion-hose type irrigation.

The concept of revenue management (RM) has been used widely in the air-transportation industry, and proven as a good system for managing perishable assets. While the airlines are the oldest and most sophisticated users of RM, these practices have been an enormously important innovation in other service industries such as the travel, the railway, the internet and the manufacturing industries. In this paper, reviewing several studies on RM, we introduce the fundamental concepts and the major models of RM covering seat allocation with multiple fare classes and overbooking. Future research directions also are suggested.

Upward migration of the peritoneal catheter of a subgaleo-peritoneal (SP) shunt and coiling into the subgaleal space is an extremely rare complication of a SP shunt. A 32-year-old male patient visited our hospital presenting with a large skull defect due to a prior craniectomy performed elsewhere. The patient underwent a cranioplasty with methylmetacrylate, but subsequently developed progressive pseudomeningocele and subgaleal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) collection. The patient underwent CSF diversion via a SP shunt. After SP shunting, the pseudomeningocele disappeared completely. Six months later, the patient presented with progressive scalp swelling. Skull X-ray showed migration and coiling of the distal catheter of the SP shunt. The patient was treated by removing the entire shunt catheter and the dura was covered with a subgaleal flap. We would like to report our experience with a very rare complication of subgaleo-peritoneal shunting.

Standard open procedures for resection of the first rib in thoracic outlet syndrome can prove to be quite difficult with extensive incisions. A minimal invasive procedure can also be painstaking, but provides an attractive alternative to the more radical open procedures. We report the details of the technique with direct video footage of the procedure performed in a 41-year-old man with thoracic outlet syndrome done entirely by thoracoscopic methods.

Aircraft maintenance failure doesn't only threaten flight safety but also causes significant economic losses such as flight delays, flight cancellations, air turn backs and diversion and so on. Therefore, the efforts should be made to detect the contributing factors that cause such maintenance failure and eliminate them. In this study, by analyzing factors contributing to system failure using the Maintenance Error Decision Aid (MEDA) model based on stochastic relations between the contribution factors, system failure and events, we will draw a improvement plan to aircraft maintenance defects.

A decision support system, Daily Irrigation Network Operation Simulation model (DINOPS) was developed that can adequately describe the physical behavior of an irrigation system. The model is to depict the physical features of complex water allocation schemes of the irrigation system and to simulate the response of the system to different irrigation schemes. The model was validated on the Banweol irrigation district by comparing the simulated canal discharges and paddy water levels with the field data. The operation of the DINOPS model was demonstrated on the irrigation district where several irrigation management practices were evaluated with computing irrigation efficiencies and rainfall effectiveness respectively. The model sensitivity with respect to heights of bund and block diversion rates were analyzed and discussed.

Purpose - Prior theories expect a lower marginal value of cash for weak governance firms. To test this hypothesis, we examine the relationship between corporate governance structures and marginal cash values in Korean retail firms. Research design, data, and methodology - We estimate marginal cash values based on the model of Faulkender & Wang (2006). The retail firms listed in Korean Stock Exchange from 2005 to 2013 are analyzed. Corporate governance scores are provided by Korean Corporate Governance Services. Results - We show a higher marginal value of cash for the weak governance retail firms in terms of total governance score. Our analysis on a detailed set of governance scores generally confirms this tendency. Yet, a higher marginal cash value is obtained for the firms with better board structures and dividend policies. Conclusions - Our findings argue against the agency view of cash policy predicting a negative relationship between corporate governance scores and marginal cash values. A low marginal value of cash, widely observed in the sample firms, also supports severe resource diversion problem in Korean corporations.

Hydranencephaly is a rare congenital disease defined as an absence of cerebral hemispheres with an intact thalamus, brain stem, and cerebellum. Generally, patients with hydranencephaly require cerebro-spinal fluid diversion due to progressive hydrocephalus. An excellent view of the choroid plexus and advancement of the neurosurgical endoscope were possible, leading to easy coagulation of the choroid plexus to balance cerebro-spinal fluid production without the use of a shunt device. We present this rare case and good treatment outcome from endoscopic coagulation of the choroid plexus.
