Breeding and infertility status of Holstein cows reared in pasture of High-land was investigated. The results obtained were summarized as follows; 1. Eight hundred and forty Holstein cows with heifers (12.4%), 3 years old cows (19.3), 4 years old cows (16.7%), 5 years old cows (12.5%), 6 years old cows (11.4%), 7 years old cows (13.2%), 8 years old cows (9.4%) and above 9 years old cows (5.1%) were investigated. 2. They were 72.4% of conceived cows, 8.2% of uncertain pregnancy, 7.7% of physiological empty and 11.7% of reproductive disorder. 3. The percentage of cow concepted with 1, 2, 3 and more than 4 times of A.I. was 49.2, 28.8, 14.6 and 7.4% respectively. 4. In the nutritional condition of infertile cows, excellent, good, fair and poor was 7.1, 30.6, 36.7 and 25.5%, respectively. 5. Among 98 infertile cows, distribution of reproductive disorder was 41.8, 37.8, 5.1, 5.1 and 11.2% in ovary, uterus, vagina, oviduct and others, respectively. Ovary showed higher percentage than any other reproductive organs. Among the ovarian syndromes, lutein cystic ovary, follicular cystic ovary, and persistent corpus luteum were 31.7, 26.8 and 19.5%, respectively. 6. Four years old cow showed highest distribution (16.4%) among the aged groups in disordered cows. In the syndromes of reproductive disorder, latent endometritis showed higher frequency (14.3%) than any others. 7. Infertile cows with complex syncrome of genital disease was 29.6%.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the view on old age of nurses working at general hospitals, geriatric hospitals, oriental hospitals and public health centers. Methods: Data were collected using a self-report questionnaire from 461 nurses working at 3 general hospitals, 8 geriatric hospitals, 7 oriental hospitals and 6 public health centers located in Seoul, Gyeonggi-do and Chungcheong-do from June 20 to September 6, 2012. Results: The mean score of the nurses' view about old age was 3.38 out of 5 points. The details show that the 'society character' was the highest at 4.58, followed by the 'capacity character' 3.94, the 'psychology-economical character' 3.02 and the 'physical-cognitive character' 2.71. As for workplace, oriental hospitals had the highest points on the view about old age, while geriatric hospitals had the lowest. Conclusion: The results of this study indicated that the nurses' view about old age were above the moderate level. As for workplace, geriatric hospital nurses had the lowest view about old age. Therefore, it is recommended to develop an educational program that may promote the nurses' view about old age and provide the better elderly care service.

In order to promote well-being during old age, it is important to start preparing early on for the later life. Based on this thesis, this study examined attitudes of the middle-aged women residing in rural towns on their preparation for old age as well as related variables. For this purpose, survey data from 200 individuals were analyzed using a SAS program. The overall degree of preparation for old age was quantified as about 67 points out of a 100 possible points. The variables that affected the level of preparedness include attitude toward using a paid nursing home ($\beta$=.23), type of agricultural work they engage in ($\beta$=-.21), who do you think is a supporter during your old age($\beta$=.20)］, type of decision-making in the household ($\beta$=.17). The explanatory power of such variables as standards of living ($\beta$=.18), family type ($\beta$=-.18), recognition of the entrance of old age ($\beta$=.17), and preparation behavior for old age ($\beta$=.15) were partially proved in three sub-areas (economical, emotional, and leisure areas) of preparation. The groundwork of this study could be used as basic materials to develop an educational program to improve the attitudes toward preparation for old age.

M82 is a famous starburst galaxy which is dominated by young stellar populations and ISM. Some previous studies indicated the existence of intermediate-age and old stellar population in this galaxy, but little is known about them. We present a study of old globular clusters in M82 using the Hubble Space Telescope archive data. From the cluster survey of M82 we found 650 star clusters. We divided them into disk and halo star clusters according to their position. The color-color diagrams show that all 19 halo star clusters are old globular clusters. The disk sample may include both reddened young clusters and geniune old globular clusters. We estimated their ages using spectral energy distribution fit method with six filter data covering from ultraviolet (F330W) to infrared (F160W), and found that 30 of them are older than 3 Gyr. These are considered to be disk globular clusters. Twelve of the halo globular clusters are found to be partially resolved into their member stars. The (B-V) color range of the halo globular clusters is consistent with that of the Milky Way globular clusters, but most of M82 globular clusters are bluer than (B-V)=0.7. The existence of these old globular clusters suggests that the starburst galaxy M82 has an old stellar halo that may be as old as the Milky Way halo.

This study intended to compare the effects of fashion emotional and relationship experience of middle and old aged women on their long-term relationship orientation. The survey was conducted in September and October in 2006 on 579 middle old aged women whose age varied from 40 to 70 years old, who lived in Seoul and the metropolitan area and had experienced fashion shopping. The SPSS 12.0 was used to do an analysis of frequency, an exploratory factor analysis, and a multi-regression analysis and Lisrel 8.14 was applied to make a path analysis. The result of this study was as follows: Comparing the two age groups, the most important fact was that fashion related experience had more affective on long-term relationship orientation for old aged than middle aged women. Secondly, the effects of fashion emotional experience of middle and old aged women affected the long-term relationship orientation were the same. This analysis suggested that intensive marketing strategy effort of emotional experience for middle aged women and relational experience for old aged women should be more effective in fashion market.

The proportion of old buildings over 30 years old increased from 29.0% in 2005 to 37.8% in 2019. These old buildings were created during the absence of building-related safety standards such as fire safety performance. In the process of use, illegal changes and extensions were made, making them more vulnerable to safety. In the 1st Basic Plan for Fire Safety Policy, among the 12-Key Tasks, one is to ensure the safety of residential living spaces. Fire safety investigations are being conducted to prevent large-scale disasters such as multi-use buildings, but no investigation has been conducted at the regional district level where small-scale old buildings are concentrated. Therefore, in order to derive fire risk factors in the old building district where old buildings are concentrated, the composition characteristics of the buildings were first analyzed.

This study analyzes traffic accident severity of old age drivers in fourteen cities and counties of Jeonbuk Province. It is assumed that traffic accident effecting factors have two staged structure by personal and driving environment and urban characteristics. Multilevel Analysis Model is used under the assumption of hierarchical characteristics to analyze factors effecting severity. As the driver's age increases after sixty-five years old, accident damages become severe. The drunk driving is likely to make traffic accident damage more severer. The number of fatal accident by old age drivers is about three time more than by no old age drivers. Old age drivers have higher number of night traffic accidents but severer ones in daytime. Old age drivers show the higher number of traffic accidents but severer ones in fine weather. Wet road surface also influences damage severity and especially old age drivers show higher serious damage and fatal than no old drivers.

Purpose: This study investigated the epidemiology of Kawasaki disease (KD) in infants ${\leq}3$-month-old. Methods: To study the epidemiology of KD in Korea, data for 27,851 KD patients were collected on a 3-year basis between 2000 and 2008 in a retrospective survey. From this, data for 609 KD patients ${\leq}3$-month-old were analyzed and compared with the data for KD patients >3-month-old. Results: The 609 KD patients ${\leq}3$-month-old (385 males and 224 females) constituted 2.2% of the KD patients. They included 25 infants <1-month-old, 198 infants ${\leq}1$- to 2-month-old, and 386 infants >2- and 3-months-old. The ratio of males to females was 1.72:1. The incidence of coronary artery (CA) dilatation (19.9% vs. 18.7%) and CA aneurysms (3.4% vs. 2.6%) detected by echocardiography did not differ significantly between patients with KD younger and older than 3-month-old. Conclusion: Compared with the data for the KD patients >3-month-old, the data for the 609 patients ${\leq}3$-month-old did not show a significantly higher incidence of CA dilatation or CA aneurysms.

The present study was designed to investigate the morphological developments of the stomach in the prenatal and postnatal rats. The gastric fundus of 16- to 22-day-old fetuses, neonates, 7-day-old, 14-day-old, 21-day-old, and adult rats were observed by transmission electron microscopy. 1. In the 19-day-old fetuses, the gastric pits and the parietal cells were the primitive state, but the parietal cells contained numerous microvilli and mitochondria. 2. In the 20-day-old fetuses, the intracellular canaliculus appeared in the parietal cells, and glycogen granules were localized mainly in the basal part of the epithelial cells and parietal cells. 3. In the 20-day-old fetuses, the mucous granules and zonular occludens appeared in the gastric glandular cells adjacent to the parietal cells. 4. In the 21-day-old fetuses, the chief cells were identified in the lamina propria and these cells contained granular endoplasmic reticulum and zymogen granules. 5. In the 20- to 22-day-old fetuses, the definitive parietal cells were firstly appeared in pairs or groups within the lamina propria. These cells tended to be placed near the basement membrane and blood capillary, and frequently tended to be extruded into lumen of gland. 6. The endocrine cells were appeared at the basal areas of the gastric gland after the 14-day-old.

The objectives of this study were 1) to identity the living conditions of old women at rural area, 2) to inquire of the activities for extra income 3) to Provide information on the social service program development for old rural women. Data were collected by interview with the questionaire from 396 old rural women in Korea. In analyzing data, $x^2$-test has been produced by S A S program package at Rural Development Administration. The major results were as follows ; 1. The average age was 69.7years old of the subjects, illiteracy was 54.1%, widows was 58.6%, and the 18.4% of elderly have led a solitary life. Also, the degree of health care was very low. 2. The source of living costs in most old rural women lay on agricultural income. Also, because of the educational expenditure for their children, etc., they led to poverty, and then could not provide for their old age. 3. In spite of the 60.4% of the old women did farming, a lot of them wishes to have a side job. The reasons why they wish to do a side job were making money, spending their time in working, being proud before their children, etc.. 4. According as they rely on their husband, the eldest son and his wife, for the psychological, physical, economical support, their position among family was low. Therefore, only the 43.3% of old women were satisfied with their life. 5. Finally, in the result of this case study, the old women, who particpate in the extra income promoting program, were satisfied with their rural life, and their social position were high rather than elswhere.
