This study attempted to understand current status of overseas virtual fashion brands and analyze attributes of common digital fashion brands. Based on brand analysis criteria of previous studies, digital fashion brands were analyzed for brand concept, price range, characteristic elements, and attributes. Digital fashion design elements of items, colors, materials, patterns, and effects were analyzed by collecting images of brands' digital fashion design products. Digital fashion brands could be divided into experimental and creative digital fashion brands and digital fashion brands aiming for popular brands. This study introduces a creative fashion collection that experiments sustainability and future value. It shares a new way of self-expression and a playful culture centered on the younger generation. In terms of fashion design elements, fashion items were similar to the existing fashion category, but included other accessories that reflected the lifestyle of Generation Z. Silhouette expressed a minimalistic futuristic image centered on straight silhouettes. Color showed a bold and modern color image through black and color contrast. Unique patterns reflecting the concept of the brand appeared, centering on abstract and geometric patterns. Regarding materials and effects, new elements differentiated from existing fashion design area, showing meaningful characteristics. Digital materials are developed and proposed for sustainability. Materials (such as metal, glass, plastic) and effects (such as weightlessness, flames) expand impossible senses in reality and enable new fashion experiences. This is a case study of digital fashion brands. It is meaningful in that it identifies characteristics and discusses their values and meanings.

Objective: This research was conducted to evaluate the effects of citrus fiber (CF) as a natural alternative to sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP) in marinated broiler boneless chicken breast and inside beef skirt on overall retention rate, shear force, and consumer sensory attributes. Methods: Five different marinade formulations were targeted to include 0.9% salt, either 0.25% or 0.50% STPP or CF and water on a finished product basis. Water and salt only were considered the negative control (CON). Chicken breasts (n = 14) and inside beef skirt (n = 14) were randomly assigned to a treatment, raw weights recorded and then placed in a vacuum tumbler. Marinated weights were recorded, individually packed, and randomly assigned to either retail display for 10-day retention rate, shear force analysis, cook loss, or consumer sensory panel. Results: Pickup percentage, and overall retention was similar among treatments for chicken breast and inside beef skirt. Citrus fiber treatments resulted in higher cooking loss compared to the CON in chicken breast; though, CF050 resulted in similar cooking loss compared to STPP025 in inside beef skirt. No differences were found in sensory attributes for chicken breast, however, WBSF data showed CF025 was tougher than CF050, STPP050, and CON. Inside beef skirt with CF050 were least liked overall by the consumer panel. Conclusion: Citrus fiber included in marinades at a lower percentage rate can produce similar texture characteristics, and sensory properties compared with those marinated with STPP.

Objectives: This study investigated the impact of socioeconomic factors and sexual orientation-related attributes on the rates of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination and infection among men who have sex with men (MSM). Methods: A web-based survey, supported by the National Research Foundation of Korea, was conducted among paying members of the leading online portal for the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, or queer and questioning (LGBTQ+) community in Korea. The study participants were MSM living in Korea (n=942). COVID-19 vaccination and infection were considered dependent variables, while sexual orientation-related characteristics and adherence to non-pharmacological intervention (NPI) practices served as primary independent variables. To ensure analytical precision, nested logistic regression analyses were employed. These were further refined by dividing respondents into 4 categories based on sexual orientation and disclosure (or "coming-out") status. Results: Among MSM, no definitive association was found between COVID-19 vaccination status and factors such as socioeconomic or sexual orientation-related attributes (with the latter including human immunodeficiency virus [HIV] status, sexual orientation, and disclosure experience). However, key determinants influencing COVID-19 infection were identified. Notably, people living with HIV (PLWH) exhibited a statistically significant predisposition towards COVID-19 infection. Furthermore, greater adherence to NPI practices among MSM corresponded to a lower likelihood of COVID-19 infection. Conclusions: This study underscores the high susceptibility to COVID-19 among PLWH within the LGBTQ+ community relative to their healthy MSM counterparts. Consequently, it is crucial to advocate for tailored preventive strategies, including robust NPIs, to protect these at-risk groups. Such measures are essential in reducing the disparities that may emerge in a post-COVID-19 environment.

The recent advances in wireless communication systems and semiconductor technologies are paving the way for new applications over wireless sensor networks. Health-monitoring application (HMA) is one such emerging technology that is focused on sensing and reporting human vital signs through the communication network comprising sensor devices in the vicinity of the human body. The sensed vital signs can be divided into two categories based on the importance and the frequency of occurrence: occasional emergency signs and regular normal signs. The occasional emergency signs are critical, so they have to be delivered by the specified deadlines, whereas the regular normal signs are non-critical and are only required to be delivered with best effort. Handling the occasional emergency sign is one of the most important attributes in HMA because a human life may depend on correct handling of the situation. That is why the underlying network protocol suite for HMA should ensure that the emergency signs will be reported in a timely manner. However, HMA based on IEEE 802.15.4 might not be able to do so owing to the lack of an appropriate emergency-handling mechanism. Hence, in this paper, we propose a new emergency-handling mechanism to reduce the emergency reporting delay in IEEE 802.15.4 through the modified superframe structure. A fraction of an inactive period is modified into three new periods called the emergency reporting period, emergency beacon period, and emergency transmission period, which are used opportunistically only for immediate emergency reporting and reliable data transmission. Extensive simulation is performed to evaluate the performance of the proposed scheme. The results reveal that the proposed scheme achieves improved latency and higher emergency packets delivery ratio compared with the conventional IEEE 802.15.4 MAC.

우리 몸에 필수적인 미량원소인 셀레늄은 항암활성이 있는 것으로 알려져 있고, 역학적, 생태학적 그리고 임상시험을 종합해보면, 셀레늄은 종양, 특히 전립선암, 폐암, 대장암에 대한 위험성을 낮출 수 있을 것으로 생각되어진다. 기전연구에 따르면 셀레늄은 DNA single strand breaks와 활성산소종을 유도함으로써 종양을 억제하는 예방효능이 있는 것으로 밝혀지고 있다. 하지만, 아직까지 전립선암세포주에서 methylseloenol 대사체 중에 하나인 MSeA와 세포주기억제와의 관계에 대해서는 명확하게 밝혀져 있지 않은 실정이다. 따라서, 이번 연구에서는 전립선암세포주에서 셀레늄의 세포주기에 관한 효능을 확인해 보고자 하였다. 결과를 종합해보면, MSeA는 전립선암세포주에서 G1/S기 세포주기를 억제하고 DNA 합성을 방해하는 것으로 나타났고, 이러한 현상은 cyclin의존성 키나아제를 길항하는 단백질 중에 하나인 p27단백질의 발현을 증가시킴으로써 일어남을 확인하였다. 따라서, MSeA에 의해 유발되는 세포주기 억제가 전립선암 세포의 성장억제에 기여하는 것으로 사료된다.

군사지리학은 지리과학 기술과 지식을 전쟁에 활용하는 관점에서 1960년대에 출현한 응용지리학의 한 분야로 인식되어 왔다. 그러나 폭력 행위를 수반하는 전쟁에 대한 기여는 학문 연구의 도덕적 측면에서 부정적 인식을 초래하였고, 이는 학문 연구의 침체로 이어졌다. 본 연구는 응용지리학으로서 군사지리학의 역할을 제고하기 위한 방안을 제시하는 데 그 목적을 두었다. 이를 위해 군사지리학의 역할에 대한 본질적인 의미를 전쟁과 군사학과의 관계 속에서 고찰하였다. 이를 바탕으로 군사지리학 연구가 기존의 전쟁 기여 위주의 시각에서 벗어나 인류의 발전에 기여하는 역할로 새로운 정립이 필요하다는 관점의 연구 방향을 제시하였다. 군사지리학의 연구 기능은 연구 방향의 관점에 따라 전쟁에 기여하기도 하고 인류의 삶 증진에 기여할 수도 있는 이중적 속성을 대부분 가지고 있다. 군사지리학 연구가 지금까지는 전쟁기여에 필요한 활용성에 초점을 맞추어 왔으나 향후에는 인류의 삶 증진에 기여하는 역할을 확대함으로써 도덕성 측면의 미흡성을 보완해 나갈 수 있을 것이다. 본 연구를 통해 군사지리학이 전쟁과 평화 모두에 기여할 수 있는 완전한 학문으로의 역할 수행에 대한 가능성을 확인할 수 있었다.

The Korean government is considering the implementation of a project to develop a deep-sea human-operated vehicle (HOV) to improve the level of deep-sea research. Information on the scientific benefits from the project is urgently needed in order to come to a decision about whether to implement the project. This paper measures the conservation value of developing nine attributes associated with HOV by using the choice experiment (CE). A survey of about 356 experts was undertaken and 132 experts completely responded to the survey. To deal with the CE data from the survey, we employed a multinomial logit model. All the coefficient estimates are statistically significant and consistent with prior expectations. Therefore, we can judge that the respondents' works required in the CE survey were within their cognitive abilities and they reported responsible and significant values. Each marginal willingness to pay for each attribute associated with the HOV is statistically significant and provides good information on the scientific values with regard to developing the HOV. The results can be utilized in evaluating and planning several alternatives related to developing the HOV.

The principal objective of this study was to evaluate the perceived management performance and importance level of nutrition teachers by school administrators in the Chonbuk area. Self-administered questionnaires were collected from 142 school administrators. Statistical data analysis was completed using SPSS v. 12.0. Approximately 74.6% of the subjects were men. About 37% of subjects were principals, 33% were vice principals, and 35% were administrative directors, with over 60% aged 40~50 years(p<0.05). Among the 142 schools evaluated, 82.7% were located in urban areas and 17.3% were in rural areas. About 98% of the schools served meals in the dining room(p<0.05). Approximately 68% of the schools employed nutrition teachers and 33.4% had school dietitians(p<0.001). The result indicated that the overall importance level(4.24) was higher than the performance level(3.97)(p<0.001). In a survey of the degree of task performance by nutrition teachers, administrators regarded sanitation management was evaluated as the most important performance parameter(4.49), other management attributes as very important parameters(4.41), with nutrition counseling being much less important(2.76) and meal service being least important(3.29; except for classroom teachers). According to the title of the subjects, evaluations of administrative directors were lower than evaluations of principals and the vice principals. The results indicate that nutrition teachers should not only have meal service management as their main duty, but should also be involved in constructing a life-long health management system for students and teachers by conducting nutrition education and counseling, and should be active in the development of nutrition education programs and in the duties of sanitation management of school meals.

IMF 구제금융 사태 이후 신자유주의가 이 땅에 뿌리를 내려가면서 한국의 도서시장은 소위 자기계발서로 화끈 달아올랐다. 신자유주의 사회체제에서 자기계발서의 환상은 인적자원개발을 통한 개인의 경쟁력 향상과 맞물려 필연적으로 자본이 추구하는 상품화의 수단으로 전락하고 말았다. 경쟁사회에서의 낙오를 순전히 개인의 책임으로, 그리고 남들에 비해서 무엇인가 근본적 요소가 결여된 존재로 인정하게 만드는 자기계발서의 특징들은 이처럼 선택을 강요당하는 개인들에게 끊임없이 불안감과 무력감을 조성하는 함정에 빠뜨리고 만다. 자기계발과 힐링은 보완적 관계이다. 인간이 자기계발에 매진하다 보면 힐링을 필요로 한다. 힐링 인문학이 필요한 것이다. 그러므로 인문학은 자기 자신을 지각하고 발전시키는 '성찰적 삶의 기술'을 유도해야 한다. 개인의 삶의 행복이나 자기 자신의 의미체험이 매우 중요하며, 자기 자신의 감정에 대한 깨어있는 의식적 관계맺음이 '자기강화'로 이끌 수 있기 때문이다
