Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the spine and the flat-foot, the stability and the alignment of the posture of the neck to prevent the alignment of the ankle joint operation and the lower back flexibility of the lumbar region according to the type of treatment using active stretching of the triceps, back pain, and to see how they affect weight bearing differences. Methods: The subjects of this study were 24 chronic low back pain patients. They were randomly divided into experimental group and control group. In the experimental group, ankle joint mobilization and active scraping of triceps were performed three times a week for a total of 6 weeks. The control group was performed in the same way without articulation. The range of flexion and extension motion of the lumbar spine and pain degree and difference of weight-bearing were measured before and after the experiment. Results: The model of ankle joint mobilization and calf muscle elongation of flat foot significantly improved the range of flexion and extension motion of the vertebrae (p<.05) and the VAS and distribution of weight-bearing were decreased in both of two groups (p<.05). In other words, the exercise and mobilization help to recover of the balance of the whole musculoskeletal, the vertebrae. Conclusions: The active exercise of the triceps muscle of the lower leg in this study It affects the flexibility of the lumbar spine, the pain and the difference in the weight support of the lower extremities, when we performed ankle joint mobilization for exercise and cramping, pain and the difference in weight support between the two lower limbs.

PURPOSE: To investigate the effects of the underwater Ai-Chi exercise on the joint range of motion, balance and posture. METHODS: Thirty-six college students (30 men, 6 women) were divided into a 'low physical activity' groups (Group I). and an 'appropriate physical activity' groups (Group II). The Ai-Chi underwater exercise was conducted three times a week for two weeks for both groups. A goniometer was used to measure the range of motion of the hip joint, and Y-Balance and the posture screen mobile were used to measure the stability of the lower extremities. RESULTS: An evaluation of the range of motion of the hip joint before and after the Ai-Chi exercise showed significant results in the low physical activity group. However, the flexural range showed a significant increase after exercise, but not significant result. In the comparison of the mean increase between groups, only the right hip joint showed a significant difference in both groups. Also, in the comparison of the Y balance test and posture screen test before and after exercise, both groups showed significant. CONCLUSION: The Ai-Chi underwater exercise helped improve the range of motion of the hip joint and the ability to balance. Also It helped improve posture alignment. In addition, although the increase in all physical activity groups lower than the appropriate physical activity groups was greater in all figures, the increase in the number of samples, the extension of the experimental period, and various variables could be obtained.

Early proatherogenic inflammation constitutes a significant risk factor for atherogenesis development. Despite this, the precise molecular mechanisms driving this pathological progression largely remain elusive. Our study unveils a pivotal role for the microRNA miR-328-5p in dampening endothelial inflammation by modulating the stability of JUNB (JunB proto-oncogene). Perturbation of miR-328-5p levels results in heightened monocyte adhesion to endothelial cells and enhanced transendothelial migration, while its overexpression mitigates these inflammatory processes. Furthermore, miR-328-5p hinders macrophage polarization toward the pro-inflammatory M1 phenotype, and exerts a negative influence on atherosclerotic plaque formation in vivo. By pinpointing JUNB as a direct miR-328-5p target, our research underscores the potential of miR-328-5p as a therapeutic target for inflammatory atherosclerosis. Reintroduction of JUNB effectively counteracts the anti-atherosclerotic effects of miR-328-5p, highlighting the promise of pharmacological miR-328-5p targeting in managing inflammatory atherosclerosis.

The objective of this study was to investigate the surface contact and screw joint stability between screw and implant interface by use of sealer. The implants evaluated in this study were Steri-Oss futures(Hexlock $3.8D{\times}10mm$: Steri-Oss, Yorba Linda, CA), and Steri-Oss staight abutment. Titanium alloy screws were used to secure abutments to implants. The other titanium alloy screws applicating sealer(Impla-Seal, Implant Support Systems, Inc. Irvine, CA) were used to secure abutments to implants. In one another sample, 6kg of force was applied during simulated intraoral movements after abutment screws were secured to the implants with sealer. All samples were cross sectioned with sandpaper and polished with $0.1{\mu}m\;Al_2O_3$. Then samples were recorded with an scanning electron microscope. The results were as follows : 1. In the case of titanium alloy screw, irregular contacts and relatively large gap were present at thread mating surface. Also abutment screw/implant interface demonstrate incomplete seating and only one surface contact of threads between implant and screw. 2. In the case of titanium alloy screw applecating sealer, sealer was present between implant and screw. Therefore implant and screw had relatively close and tight contact without the presence of large gap. 3. On the other hand, in the case of titanium alloy screw applicating sealer and dynamic loading of suprastructures, sealer was partially present between implant and screw. Conclusively, sealer fills voids, creating a barrier to moisture and bacteria. In addition, loading of suprastructures may change the situation and limit the indications for gap sealing.

This paper proposes an optimal posture for the task-oriented movement of dual arm manipulator. A stability criterion function which consists of three kinds of feature-representative parameters has been utilized to define the optimal posture. The first parameter is the force which is applied to the object. The torque of each joint and position of arm are attained from the current sensor and encoder, respectively. From these two data, the applied force to an object is estimated using sum of vectors of the joint torques estimated from the measured current. In order to investigate the robustness of each posture, the variation of the end-effector from the encoder information has been utilized as the second parameter. And for the last parameter for the optimality, the total energy consumption has been used. The total consuming energy of each posture can be computed from the current information and the battery voltage. The proposed robot structure consists of a mobile inverted pendulum and dual manipulators. In order to define the optimal posture for the each object, external disturbances are applied to the mobile inverted pendulum robot and the first and second parameters are investigated to find the optimal posture among the pre-selected most representative postures. Finally, the proposed optimal posture has been verified by the proposed stability criterion function which consists of total force to the object, the fluctuation of the end-effector position, and total energy consumption. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithms has been verified and demonstrated through the practical simulations and real experiments.

본 논문은 다양한 지면에 적응 가능한 견형 4족 로봇의 위치 이동에 관한 것으로 정 보행과 동 보행의 구현 방법 및 특성을 주로 다루었다. 이를 위하여, 총 12 자유도의 로봇을 자체 제작하였으며, 몸통과 발의 운동궤적을 생체 모방 방식으로 생성한 후 역기구학에 의하여 그에 해당하는 각 다리의 관절각을 해석적으로 구하였다. 이러한 관절각 데이터를 상기 로봇의 ADAMS 모델에 적용하여 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 수행한 결과, 계획된 걷기 및 속보 걸음새가 동력학적으로 안정함을 확인하였다. 그러나 그 이전의 속보 패턴의 경우에는 시뮬레이션 결과와는 달리 실험 중 불안정한 거동을 보였다. 그에 따라 원인 분석을 하는 과정 중, 속보와 같은 동 보행의 경우 ZMP보다는 WSM의 개념을 적극적으로 활용하고 보행 주기를 최대한 단축시키는 것이 안정성 확보에 매우 중요함을 발견하였다.

해상처분장의 호안구조물 및 연직차수공으로 강관시트파일이 주로 사용되며, 강관시트파일은 이음부를 연결하여 주열식으로 설치가 되는 만큼 해상 고유의 횡방향 외력에 대한 구조적인 안정성이 확보되어야 한다. 본 연구의 목적은 새로 개발된 연직차수공 이음부의 구조적인 성능을 평가하는 것이다. 먼저 기존 연직차수공 이음부의 문제점을 고찰하고 시공 및 유지보수 측면에서 기존 이음부 형식과의 차별성을 갖도록 새로운 형태의 DHLT(Double H with L-T) 연직차수공 이음부를 개발하였다. 개발된 DHLT 이음부의 실규모 모형을 제작하고 이음부에 그라우트를 채워 양생시킨 후 압축 및 인장강도실험을 수행하고 그 결과를 기존 연구결과와 비교하였다. 실험결과, DHLT 이음부의 압축강도와 인장강도는 그라우트와 강재의 영향으로 인해 기존 이음부 연구결과에 비해 다소 과소평가되었다. 특히 압축강도 실험의 경우 DHLT 이음부의 비대칭 형상으로 인해 그라우트에 균열이 발생하기 전에 강재에서 먼저 항복이 발생하는 결과를 나타내었다. 본 연구를 통해 연직차수공 개발시 이음부 강도발현에 영향을 끼칠 수 있는 요인을 파악할 수 있었으며, 이를 근거로 더 향상된 연직차수공을 개발할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
