In this paper, we have investigated the tidal characteristics of the Nakdongpo estuary. We have carried out the analysis of harmonic constant with the use of the recorded data on tidal level at the Gadeong Do tide station and analyzed the flow velocity data obtained by ourselves at two points in the Nakdongpo estuary. In addition, we have analyzed the variation of the mean-sea level. Typical items of the characteristics we have found are; (1) The principal harmonic constants and non-harmonic constants are shown in table 2. (2) Tide in this area shows the semidiurnal inequality. (3) The mean-sea level is shown to be depressed at the rate of about 1cm to the rise of 1 mbar of the atmospheric pressure. (4) (i) At $K_2$ point, The E-W component of the velocty reveals the nature of progressive waves. The N-S component reveals the nature of stationary waves. (ii) At $K_3$ point, The E-W component shows the characteristics of progressive waves to some degree. The N-S component shows a weak hint of stationary waves. (5) At $K_2$ point, S-component is predominant due to the flow of river. At $K_3$ point, E-component is predominant due to the Tsushima current.

During dongchimi fermentation at 5 and $25^{\circ}C$, the pH lowered slowly and reached 4.03 at $5^{\circ}C$ after 30 days, whereas it lowered dramatically and reached 3.59 at $25^{\circ}C$ after 2 days. The predominant bacteria were Leuconostoc (Leu.) mesenteroides at $25^{\circ}C$ until day 2 which changed into Lactobacillus (Lb.) plantarum at day 3, analyzed by a culture dependent method with partial 16S rRNA gene sequencing, whereas Leu. mesenteroides occupied predominantly at $5^{\circ}C$ until day 7. In a culture-independent method using a polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) with partial 16S rRNA gene sequencing, Lb. algidus was predominant at $5^{\circ}C$ until day 7 and Lb. plantarum occupied predominantly at $25^{\circ}C$ until day 3, which is different from the results of the culture based method, indicating the both methods need to be combined for accuracy. Based on the culture-dependent method, Leu. mesenteroides might be responsible for the early and mid-phase of dongchimi fermentation.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the prevalence, subtypes and risk factors of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) among male adolescents. Methods: The survey was conducted on male adolescents (n=441) attending a high school. Rome IV criteria was used to diagnose IBS. Data on health promoting behaviors, psychological distress, sleep hygiene practices were collected using self-administered structured questionnaires. Results: The prevalence of IBS was 11.1% and the subtypes were mixed (77.5%), unclassified (10.2%), diarrhea-predominant (8.2%), and constipation-predominant (4.1%). Risk factors influencing IBS were sleeping time (Odds Ratio [OR]=1.00, 95% Confidence Interval [CI]: 0.99~1.00), anxiety, a subfactor under psychological distress (OR=1.12, 95% CI: 1.02~1.22), and arousal-related behaviors, a subfactor under sleep hygiene practices (OR=1.10, 95% CI: 1.03~1.17). Conclusion: Our findings indicated that IBS is a common problem in male adolescents. It is necessary to develop school-based intervention strategies addressing sleeping time, anxiety and arousal-related behaviors in order to prevent and improve IBS in male adolescents.

The hepatitis C virus (HCV) genome contains a positive-sense single-stranded RNA molecule, and it is classified into 8 genotypes and 87 subtypes. Globally, over 350,000 people die from liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma caused by HCV each year. Here, the genotype distribution of HCV was estimated in the population in Cheonan, Korea using Sanger sequencing. In addition, the correlation between HCV RNA level and genotype was assessed using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR); similarly, the correlation of HCV RNA level with isolation year (2007-2016) was determined using 463 consecutive serum samples obtained from patients at Dankook University Hospital, Cheonan, Korea. In 2007, genotype 1b (54.2%) was predominant, followed by genotypes 2a (41.7%), 1a (2.1%) and 3a (2.1%); whereas in 2016, the predominant genotype was 2a (49.0%), followed by genotypes 1b (46.9%), 3b (2%), and 4a (2%). Neither age nor sex was correlated with HCV genotype. Furthermore, the mean HCV RNA level decreased significantly from 2012 to 2016 (p < 0.05). However, no significant correlations between genotype and HCV RNA level were found. Overall, the findings revealed that genotypes 2a and 1b were the most common in Cheonan, and the prevalence of HCV genotype 1b tended to decrease over the past decade.

This study investigates a rocking seismic isolation (RSI) system as a seismic protection measure against narrow-band ground-motions generated by earthquakes. Structures supported over RSIs are considered capable of reducing the lateral demands and damage of the main structural system through lifting and rocking. This lifting and rocking during earthquake activity is provided by free-standing columns. A single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) system supported on a RSI system is subjected to narrow-band seismic motions and its response is compared to an analog system without RSI. The comparison is then extended to reinforced concrete linear frames with and without RSI; three-bay frames with 11 and 17 storeys are considered. It is found that the RSI systems significantly reduce acceleration and displacement demands in the main structural frames, more noticeably if the first structural mode dominates the response and for ratios of the predominant frequency of the ground motion to the predominant frequency of the main frame near one. It is also found that the RSI system is more effective in reducing lateral accelerations and displacements of the main structure when the aspect ratio, b/h, and size, R, of the free-standing columns decrease, although the rocking stability of the RSI system is also reduced.

This study examined the virtual methods of service delivery being deployed by librarians in private universities in Nigeria. The objective of the study was to analyse the virtual methods of service delivery among librarians and determine the predominant method used among the librarians. Survey research design was adopted for the study. Total enumeration technique was adopted for the study. A population of 181 librarians from 45 private universities in Southern Nigeria were involved. Data were gathered, analysed and presented using frequency counts, percentages, mean and standard deviation. The study found that librarians used different virtual methods of service delivery. Library website 157 (90%) and e-mail 132 (76.3%) were the prominent electronic media used by librarians while Facebook 59 (34%) and Whatsapp 57 (32.9%) were the predominant social media platforms applied for service delivery by librarians. Electronic media were more used for latest publications arrival, as well as library education and document delivery services while social media were more used for reference services and selective dissemination of information. In conclusion, virtual methods of service delivery were deployed by librarians in private universities for service delivery. In comparing the virtual methods, librarians used more of electronic media than social media to deliver services to their users. Therefore, electronic media were predominantly used than social media, many of the virtual methods were found to be underutilised while recommendations were proffered.

The aim of this study was to utilize the 20 steps in the three phases from the book, 'Twenty steps for developing a Healthy Cities Project $2^{nd}$ Ed., 1995, WHO/EURO' to survey Healthy Cities to identify the similarities and differences by implementation rates and perceived significances among Healthy Cities worldwide. For this study, a self-administered questionnaire was developed based on the book. The questionnaires were delivered by air-mail and e-mail to 213 Healthy City coordinators or directors in 43 nations from Jan 13 to Feb 10, 1999. The responses were gathered up until March 31 from 40 Healthy Cities in 17 nations, mostly in the USA and in the European regions. The main results are as follows; Overall the perceived significances were higher for healthy cities with higher implementation rates and there were significant differences for 'set-up office', 'plans strategy', 'increase health awareness', 'mobilize intersectoral action', and 'secure healthy public policy'. 1. According to national health system, the implementation rate, perceived significance and implementation ability of the 20 steps were higher in the healthy cities with a comprehensive-type health system as compared to those with an entreprenetrial & permissive health system. Overall there were significant differences in the steps 'mobilize intersectoral action', and 'secure healthy public policy'. steps which were predominant in the healthy cities with a comprehensive-type health system. There was no concordance in the ranks of implementation rate and perceived significant score. 2. According to the length of implementation time, the perceived significance and implementation ability were higher in healthy cities with more than 6 years compared to those with less than 6 years, although implementation rate was the same. Overall there was a significant difference in 'secure healthy public policy' the step which was predominant in the healthy cities with more than 6 years of implementation. 3. According to population covered by the Healthy City Project, the implementation rate and implementation ability were higher in healthy cities with more than a population of 100 thousand. There was no significant difference in perceived significance, but there were differences in the following, 'find finances', 'set-up office'. 'mobilize intersectoral action' in the implementation rate and implementation ability. These three steps were predominant in the healthy cities with a population of more than 100 thousand. 4. The population covered by the Healthy City Project was the only effective factor influencing the total implementation ability of each healthy city, and it was higher for those cities with a population of more than 100 thousand. In Conclusion, the implementation rate, the perceived significance and the implementation ability were higher in cities with a comprehensive -type health system, with more than 6 years of healthy city experience and with a population of more than 100 thousand. To increase the reliability and the validity of the questionnaire and the results of this study arising from lack of sufficient data, repeated study needs to be considered with a more refined questionnaire delivered to more healthy cities worldwide.
