근래 자살예방에 대한 관심이 증가되면서 이에 대한 실질적인 전략들이 많이 개발되었다. 특히 서구에서는 지역사회 정신건강 기관에서 자살예방을 위한 치료 프로그램이 특성화되어 운영되는 것은 물론, 대학 및 병원과 연계하여 자살 충동의 원인이 되는 다양한 정신 병리적 혹은 사회 심리적인 원인들을 규명하고 이에 대한 계속적인 연구가 시행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 음악치료가 자살의 중요한 요인인 우울에 미치는 영향을 중심으로 하여 자살예방을 위한 음악치료적인 접근을 제시하고자 하였다. 접근방법으로는 노래심리치료(Song Psychotherapy), MI(Music Imagery), 역할악기즉흥연주(Role Play Instrumental Improvisation)심리치료를 주요방법으로 구성한 음악심리치료 프로그램이 제공되었다. 연구대상은 우울을 동반한 정신적 외상상태로 자살을 시도했던 30대 여성이었으며 치료기간은 주 1회 90~120분의 7회의 세션이 실시되었다. 음악치료 전개에 따라 우울척도와 자살생각척도를 통해 변화를 양적 질적으로 연구 방법들을 사용하였다. 연구 결과 내담자는 음악심리치료를 통해 안정감과 편안함을 느끼고 방어나 저항 없이 자신의 감정의 생각, 그리고 내면의 세계를 탐구할 수 있었다. 이 경험들을 통하여 내담자는 자아개념과 새로운 가치를 발견하게 되고 부정적인 정서가 긍정적인 정서로 바뀌게 됨에 따라 우울감이 감소되었다. 또한 자살에 대한 생각보다는 현재 삶에 대한 구체적인 계획을 행동으로 옮기게 되었다. 특히 역할악기 즉흥연주 과정의 음악은 기분의 변화, 타인과의 관계변화, 태도의 변화 등 다양한 영역변화를 가져오는 주체로서 '치료' 그 자체로 사용되어졌다. 그리고 음악은 해결되지 않은 정신적 외상상태에 있었던 내담자의 심리적 위축과 긴장감, 무기력한 에너지 등을 표출시키고 본능과 감정을 그대로 경험할 수 있도록 하였다. 더 나아가 '거짓자아'와 분리되어 '참 자아'와의 통합을 이루어가도록 도움을 주었다. 결과적으로 음악심리치료는 우울을 감소시키고 자살충동 예방에 효과적으로 적용될 수 있음을 시사하고 있다.

Neutrophils play an important role in the human immune system for protection against such microorganisms as a protozoan parasite, Trichomonas vaginalis; however, the precise role of neutrophils in the pathogenesis of trichomoniasis is still unknown. Moreover, it is thought that trichomonal lysates and excretory-secretory products (ESP), as well as live T. vaginalis, could possibly interact with neutrophils in local tissues, including areas of inflammation induced by T. vaginalis in humans. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of T. vaginalis lysate on the fate of neutrophils. We found that T. vaginalis lysate inhibits apoptosis of human neutrophils as revealed by Giemsa stain. Less altered mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and surface CD16 receptor expression also supported the idea that neutrophil apoptosis is delayed after T. vaginalis lysate stimulation. In contrast, ESP stimulated-neutrophils were similar in apoptotic features of untreated neutrophils. Maintained caspase-3 and myeloid cell leukemia-1 (Mcl-1) in neutrophils co-cultured with trichomonad lysate suggest that an intrinsic mitochondrial pathway of apoptosis was involved in T. vaginalis lysate-induced delayed neutrophil apoptosis; this phenomenon may contribute to local inflammation in trichomoniasis.

modern logistics are required to carry out functions such as timely adjustment and swift adaptation to changing patterns, and this leads to the emphasis on forming logistics parks. Logistics parks make profits using the efficiency of time and space. Such logistics parks play an important role in a corporation creating operating profits as well as acting as a method of alternative investment for individuals. Logistics parks no longer simply store materials, but have become a place that plays an important role in various areas of corporate and individual activities, and thus the analysis of the selection of the location of logistics parks and the related characteristics is extremely important. There are many existing studies on the selection of locations of logistics parks but work on the factors related to location selection by industry seem lacking. As such, in the course of this study we have used preceeding studies to draft a questionnaire on which selection factors affect the selection of logistics park location in different industries and conducted empirical analysis of the questionnaire results to uncover the factors that affect the selection of the locations of logistics parks in different industries.

In lotic wetlands, runner reed (Phragmites japonicus) plays a role as a pioneer, which helps other plant species to settle by making dense roots trapping floating-sediments. In lentic wetlands, on the other hand, P. japonicus could play a role as an invader threatening biodiversity by forming tall and dense stands. To conserve an abandoned paddy terrace in mountainous areas, a habitat of an endangered dragonfly species (Nannophya pygmaea), from the monotypic-occupation by P. japonicus, we applied three kinds of treatment: (1) hand-clipping in 2009, (2) mechanical excavating in 2012, and (3) planting of alternative vegetational unit in 2012. We have monitored vegetation changes in the wetland in 2008~2012 and 2017. Vegetation cover of P. japonicus sharply decreased from 43% in 2011 to 16% in 2012 by the mechanical excavation. After 5 years from applying the treatment, Schoenoplectiella mucronata that was utilized in the planting became the predominant species instead of P. japonicus and the number of wetland plant species increased from 16 to 25 with the shift in species composition. This study showed the utility of three control methods of P. japonicas in a lentic wetland.

This study examined the effect of branding capability on business performance moderated by learning capability. This study was conducted with small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) of coffee cafes in the ex-Besuki region, East Java, Indonesia, covering four regencies located around coffee-producing areas with geographical indication (GI) certification. 150 managers of coffee cafe were sampled using the census technique. Data were collected by questionnaires distributed to the coffee cafe managers. The data were then analyzed by using simple regression analysis, Moderation Regression Analysis (MRA) and Moderated MultiGroup Analysis (MMA). The results showed that learning capability positively and significantly affect business performance, and learning capability moderated/enhanced the effect of branding capability on business performance. The findings of this study suggest that branding capability and learning capability play a crucial role in the performance of coffee cafe business especially in the dynamic environment. Coffee cafe managers need to take concrete steps to improve their branding capability and learning capability and they also need to improve their ability to interact with their environment and be committed in managing the coffee cafe. Therefore, it is imperative that the role of branding capability and learning capability be optimized in order to improve the business performance of the coffee cafe.

Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect has been widely studied as a global concern of the 21st century. Heat generation from urban built-up structures and anthropogenic heat sources are the main factors to create UHIs. Unfortunately, both factors are expanding rapidly in Lahore and accelerating UHI effects. The effects of UHI are expanding with the expansion of impermeable surfaces towards urban green areas. Therefore, this study was arranged to analyze the role of urban cooling intensity in reducing urban heat island effects. For this purpose, 15 parks were selected to analyze their effects on the land surface temperature (LST) of Lahore. The study obtained two images of Landsat-8 based on seasons: the first of June-2018 for summer and the second of November-2018 for winter. The LST of the study area was calculated using the radiative transfer equation (RTE) method. The results show that the theme parks have the largest cooling effect while the linear parks have the lowest. The mean park LST and PCI of the samples are also positively correlated with the fractional vegetation cover (FVC) and normalized difference water index (NDWI). So, it is concluded that urban parks play a positive role in reducing and mitigating LST and UHI effects. Therefore, it is suggested that the increase of vegetation cover should be used to develop impervious surfaces and sustainable landscape planning.
