Purpose: To investigate the status of foot, preventive foot care and appropriateness of shoe size in patients with diabetes. Materials and Methods: One hundred and sixty-five patients who visited endocrinology clinic due to clinically proven diabetes mellitus were studied. Average age was 59.3 years (range, 36-90 years) and average duration of diabetes was $9.6{\pm}8.2$ years. Patients were questioned about their basic educational level and their foot and ankle problems. Physical examination of the foot was done including sensation testing of four areas of plantar surface with the 5.07 monofilament. Both feet and shoes were measured for width, length and the height of toes and toebox. Shoes were defined as properly fitting the foot if it is 5mm wider than the foot, and $20{\pm}30\;mm$ longer than the foot, and the height of toebox is more than 5mm higher than the height of the toes. Results: 48.5 percent of the patients were educated about how to select an appropriate shoewear. 47.3 percent of the patients had symptoms of neuropathy and 42.4 percent of patients were unable to feel the monofilament in at least one area. 25.5 percent of the patients had appropriate shoes in length, 63.6 percent of the patients in width, and 72.7 percent of the patients in the height of toebox. Conclusion: This study suggets that more patients needs to be educated about foot care and appropriate shoes which have adequate height of toebox as well as the length and width.

고온초전도체 61심 Bi-2223 선재간의 초전도 접합부위를 화학적 부식 및 열적· 기계적 반복 공정에 의하여 제조하였다. 초전도 선재 테이프의 은 피복재 한쪽 표면을 초전도체와 반응하지 않는 부식액(NH4OH:H2O2=1:1)으로 화학적으로 제거한 다음, 두 시편을 일출가압 성형하여 접합시편을 제조하였고 일련의 서로 다른 열적· 기계적 처리를 거쳐 접합부의 물성 및 미세구조를 분석하였다. 접합부를 따라 임계전류(Ic) 변화와 전류전압 곡선의 특성을 측정하기 위하여 여러 단자를 접합부 주위에 설치하여 부위별 I~V 특성을 측정한 결과 단심선재에 비하여 다심선재에서 선재 전체의 통전 능력을 좌우하는 천이구간의 임계전류값이 높았다. 그러나 단심에 비해 다심선재는 천이급속도를 나타내는 n값이 다심선재내 각각의 초전도 core들의 상호작용에 의하여 낮은 값을 나타내었다. 접합부의 임계전류 통전성은 반복적인 가압성형 공정과 서냉반응 열처리 공정에 의하여 향상되었다.

Purpose: A modified free thenar flap was designed for coverage of volar finger defect with constant innervation using the palmar cutaneous branch of the median nerve. After clinical application of this flap, sensory results were evaluated in 6 cases. Methods: Patients were selected who have volar soft tissue defect with or without fingertip defect. The six cases of the innervated free thenar flap were performed since September 2009, and sensory outcomes were evaluated by the Semmes-Weinstein monofilament and two-point discriminator at four and half month after the surgery. Results: The Semmes-Weinstein Monofilament test revealed 3 cases showed 2.83, 1 case showed 3.61, 1 case showed 4.31 and 1 case showed 4.56. The static two-point discrimination test revealed 1 case showed 4 mm, 1 case showed 6 mm, 2 cases showed 9 mm, and 2 cases showed over 15 mm. The moving two-point discrimination test revealed 1 case showed 3 mm, 1 case showed 4 mm, 1 case showed 5 mm, 1 case showed 7 mm, and 2 cases showed over 15 mm. The donor sites showed no significant limitation of the thumb and neuroma formation. Conclusion: The innervated free thenar flap showed good sensory outcomes as a sensate free flap in a short time after surgery. It can be an option for coverage of volar finger defects that requires sensation.

In this paper, we proposed a method to shield perpendicular magnetic fields in high Tc superconductor(HTS) tape of a shell-type HTS transformer with double pancake windings. A diamagnetism of characteristics of superconductor is used to shield magnetic field. For a shielding experiment, a proper shielding model is chosen, and several kinds of HTS are used such as a monofilament HTS tape, two kinds of multifilament HTS tapes and YBCO film disk. The effect of shielding for the perpendicular magnetic field is measured with HTSs for shielding and their utility for shielding is proved.

The undrawn monofilament of poly (trimethylene terephthalate) (PTT) was obtained by melt-spinning. After being annealed at 40 C it was analyzed by the measurements of DSC, DMA, WAXD and ATR FT-IR. Tg of PTT fiber after annealing for more than 96 hours was 20 C higher than that before annealing as determined by the DSC and DMA measurements. The WAXD analysis showed very weak diffraction peaks at 2$\theta$=17$^{\circ}$ and 2$\theta$=24$^{\circ}$ for the annealing time of more than 96 hours. The ATR FT-IR measurements made clear the conformational change of methylene chains of PTT glycol residue from random to gauche-gauche conformation.

The present study examined chronic effects of transient focal cerebral ischemia on the substantia nigra, a remote exofocal area, using immunohistochenmical and receptor autoradiographic techniques. Transient focal cerebral ischemia was induced by middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion for 60 or 90 min followed by reperfusion using silicone-coated 4-0 nylon monofilament in male Wistar rats. After 1- or 2-week reperfusion following transient MCA occlusion, there were partial losses of tyrosine hydroxylase-immunoreactive dopaminergic neurons, incieases in glial fibrillary acidic protein-immunoreactive cells (gliosis), decreases in [$^3$H]YM-09151-2 binding for dopamine D$_2$ receptors, and marked atrophy in the ipsilateral substantia nigra. The precise mechanism(s) of exofocal damage to the substantia nigra is remained to be elucidated.

To analyze the settlement characteristics of short-fiber reinforced soil(SFRS) under dynamic loading, a series of tests with loading condition of 5 Hz frequency and 500,000 cycles were performed. The materials used for tests are a soil of SM type and short-fibers with polypropylene and monofilament or fibrillated type. From the tests, average plastic settlement of SFRS at PPF38(0.3%), PPF38(0.5%), PPM60(0.2%) is low. Elastic settlement of SFRS is low at PPM60(0.2%) and is high at PPF60(0.5% ).

In this study, the variation of unit weight and unconfined compressive strength were investigated, calcium carbonate, quicklime, portland cement, 19mm length monofilaments and fibrillated fiber were used as reinforcement materials. And calcium chloride was added to cement and calcium carbonate reinforced soil mixture in order to accelerate setting and hardening speed. It appears that unit weight is highest in calcium carbonate reinforced soil mixture with mixing rate of 9%. According to increasing the amount of fiber in soil mixture, the unit weight decreased. It shows that the more the amount of monofilament fiber is added in soil mixture, the higher the compressive strength is, but the compressive strength is decreased in fibrillated fibrillated fiber added soil mixture with more than 1.0% of mixing rate.

Purpose: Microsurgery is an essential technique in plastic and reconstructive surgery. However, microsurgical suturing and handling of the instrument are difficult for beginners, and who requires a steep learning curve. Therefore, methods for improving the technical skill are needed. The authors describe the value of a small stereoscopic microscope as a training tool. Materials and Methods: A small stereoscopic microscope was used to help improve the microsurgical skill. Monofilament 10-0 Nylon and a surgical rubber globe were used as a suture material and education material, respectively Result: Stereoscopic view of the operation field was obtained and basic microsurgical suture was possible. Conclusion: The stereoscopic microscope is an effective training tool for beginners of microsurgery with benefits in cost and usefulness in small place.
