We investigated occurrence of yellow patch for early spring season of 48 cultivars in 5 species of turfgrass, most popularly used in Korea golf courses. Only yellow patch disease caused by Rhizoctonia cerealis was occurred naturally from late fall season. Perennial ryegrass and creeping bentgrass cultivars showed susceptibility from yellow patch in early spring, respectively. However, among There was no significantly different between the other species. Creeping bentgrass, 'Pennlinks II' cultivar was the most susceptible. Yellow patch symptom showed reddish brown with margins in color and patch showed size from 5 cm to 50 cm in diameter. Based on our results, Yellow patch showed large differences among cultivar and each turfgrass species.

Brown patch caused by Rhizoctonia solani AG-1 IB occurred on Kentucky bluegrass during late May through early October 2010 at golf course in Gyeongbuk Province, Korea. Disease symptoms on the turfgrass for spring season were leaf blights dying from the leaf tip, which appeared patches of brown color in the field. However, it appeared patches of dark brown color or gray brown color in fall. The fungus (B-7 isolate) of brown patch was isolated from the diseased leaf tissue and cultured on potato-dextrose agar (PDA) for identification. The young hyphae had acute angular branching and few septa and mature hyphal branches showed about 90-degree angles and development of monilioid cells, which were morphologically identical to Rhizoctonia solani AG-1 IB reported previously. DNA sequences of ribosomal RNA gene (internal transcribed spacer) of the fungus were homologous with similarity of 99% to those of Rhizoctonia solani AG-1 IB isolates in GenBank database, confirming the identity of the causal agent of the disease. Pathogenicity of the fungus was also confirmed on the creeping bentgrass and Kentucky bluegrass by Koch's postulates. This is the first report of brown patch on Kentucky bluegrass caused by Rhizoctonia solani AG-1 IB in Korea.

In this paper, we proposed the image-based 3D ray-tracing indoor propagation model using patch scattering model which can calculate the scattering phenomenon of the indoor structures. A patch scattering model for modeling indoor structures defines a scattering phenomenon by using RCS(Radar Cross Section) about rectangular patch without complex calculation, for example generating image antennas about each indoor structures. RCS is simply defined as a ratio of scattering power to incident power, and we use bistatic PCS which is simplified numerically by Physical Optics. Also, a simple indoor compensation factor is defined as empirical constant from measured data instead of complex numerical expression because basic patch scattering model cannot include important multipath components, so we san use patch scattering model in indoor environment using indoor compensation factor.

Cultural characteristics and pathogenicity on the isolates of Rhizoctonia oryzae, R. oryzae-sativae and anastomosis group of R. solani and evaluation of selected fungicides on brown patch disease of creeping bentgrass and large patch disease of zoysia grass were studied comparatively. From effect of temperature on the rate of mycelia growth, the result indicated that the temperature groups were separated into four types : isolates of R. oryzae and R. oryzae-sativae had an optimum temperature of $30~35^{\circ}C$. Anastomosis groups of R. solani were separated into three temperature types as followings : high temperature type had an optimum temperature from 25 to $30^{\circ}C$, moderate type had grown from 20 to $25^{\circ}C$ for optimum and low temperature type had an optimum temperature of $20^{\circ}C$ but at $35^{\circ}C$ did not grow. Inoculation tests showed that AG-1( I A), AG-1( I B), bentgrass isolate of R. solani and R. oryzae were strongly pathogenic on creeping bentgrass, followed by AG-2-1, AG-4, AG-5 and AG-2-2 isolates of R. solani moderately to weakly. Zoysia grass isolate of R. solani and R. oryzae were strongly pathogenic on zoysia grass but AG-1( I B) and AG-5 isolates of R. solani showed moderately pathogenic. Capro(iprodione oxine-copper) and mytan(myclobutanil) were extremely effective against brown patch disease of creeping bentgrass and large patch disease of zoysia grass followed by thiopan (thiopanate-methyl) and pencycuron for brown patch disease and tolos(tolclofos-methyl) and thiopan for large patch disease.

To characterize novel biologically-active ingredients in traditional Korean soy sauces, polysaccharide fractions were isolated from two different soy sauces made either commercially (CSP-0) or through a traditional Korean process (KTSP-0), after which their intestinal immune-modulating activities were examined. CSP-0 and KTSP-0 showed enhanced production of interleukine-6 (IL-6) in culture supernatant of Peyer's patch cells. However, KTSP-0 activity was more potent than that of CSP-0. Only KTSP-0 increased in vitro immunoglobulin A (IgA) production by Peyer's patch cells in a dose-dependent manner. KTSP-0 also showed the higher bone marrow cell proliferation activity through Peyer's patch cells than that of the CSP-0 group. To investigate the in vivo effects on the intestinal immune system, CSP-0 and KTSP-0 were administered orally to four experimental groups of mice (0.0, 0.5, 1.0, and 5.0 mg/mouse/day, 30 days). Oral administration of CSP-0 and KTSP-0 induced IgA production by Peyer's patch cells and increased IgA excretion into mouse stools in a dose-dependent manner. Peyer's patch cells from the mice administered both CSP-0 and KTSP-0 showed significantly higher IL-6 production than that of the untreated or CSP-0 groups. However, oral administration of KTSP-0 was more effective at the same dosage. KTSP-0 administration augmented IL-6 content in mouse sera, whereas CSP-0 did not show any effect on IL-6 induction. The above data lead us to conclude that the intestinal immune-stimulating activities of polysaccharides from Korean traditional soy sauce are much better than those of commercial ones.

The mixture (PM) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and fermented rice bran on the activation of macrophage and bone marrow cell proliferation was studied in mice. PM stimulated not only the activation of macrophage (1.8-fold of saline) but also IL-6 production from macrophage (1.5-fold) at 2.0 g/㎏/day during 7 days of oral administration. By the culture supernatant of Peyer's patch cells from C3H/HeJ mice fed PM at 2.0 g/㎏/day for 7 days, the bone marrow cells significantly proliferated compared with that of mice receiving only saline (1.7-fold). In addition, the contents of GM-CSF and IL-6 in the culture supernatant of Peyer's patch cells from mice fed PM at 2.0 g/㎏/day were increased in comparison with those from the control (1.8 and 1.4-fold, respectively). These results revealed that oral administration of PM may modulate IL-6 production to induce the activation of macrophage, and also enhance secretion of hematopoietic growth factors such as GM-CSF and IL-6 from Peyer's patch cells.

Iatrogenic electrical burns that occur from the use of a defibrillator, a paddle-type cardiac shock device, have been reported in various forms. Electrical burns are usually conducted directly through the skin and are more damaging than scald burns or contact burns. A transcutaneous cardiac pacing device is a patch-type cardiac shock device that automatically delivers a shock when an abnormal heart rhythm is detected. We introduce a unique case of iatrogenic electrical burns caused by the transcutaneous pacing patch of a cardiac shock device. Electrical energy was converted into a spark due to foreign bodies deposited around the patch, resulting in damage to the peripheral area of the skin.

In information security and network management, attacks based on vulnerabilities have grown in importance. Malicious attackers break into hosts using a variety of techniques. The most common method is to exploit known vulnerabilities. Although patches have long been available for vulnerabilities, system administrators have generally been reluctant to patch their hosts immediately because they perceive the patches to be annoying and complex. To solve these problems, we propose a security vulnerability evaluation and patch framework called PKG-VUL, which evaluates the software installed on hosts to decide whether the hosts are vulnerable and then applies patches to vulnerable hosts. All these operations are accomplished by the widely used simple network management protocol (SNMP). Therefore, system administrators can easily manage their vulnerable hosts through PKG-VUL included in the SNMP-based network management systems as a module. The evaluation results demonstrate the applicability of PKG-VUL and its performance in terms of devised criteria.

Aortoesophageal fistula is an uncommon and fatal complication after surgery of aortic aneurysm. A case of aortoesophageal fistula as a complication of synthetis patch aortoplasty for mycotic aneurysm of descending thoracic aorta is described. After 3 months since patch aortoplasty for mycotic aneurysm of descending thoracic aorta this patient visited the emergency room due to melena and hematemesis. After gastrofiberoscopy and computed tomography the patient was taken ot the operating room. The surgical intervention was performed in two steps. Median sternotomy and midline laparotomy were made. Hemashield's Dacron(16mm) bypass between ascending thoracic aorta and infra-renal abdominal aorta was established first. Through the posterolateral thoracotomy false aneurysm and previous Hemashield's Dacron patch of descending aorta were resected. The two ends of the aorta were sutured and esophageal fistula was repaired. The esophageal suture line and the stumps were covered with omental graft. Thirty months later the patient has had no difficulty referable to the aortic surgery.
