Objectives : The study is performed to investigate the influence of psychological stress on neck muscles tone and heart rate variability(HRV). Methods : This study was carried out with the data from stress response index score(SRI), surface electromyography(sEMG) and HRV. First subjects were divided into two group according to the SRI points. Subjects in group A had points of SRI in which lower than 30 points. Subjects in group B had points of SRI in which higher than 30 points. Then we investigated how to difference of the index of sEMG and HRV according to each groups. Results : In this study, the muscle contraction of both upper trapezius muscle in stress group were higher than non-stress group significantly. Complexity, root mean square of successive differences of R-R intervals(RMSSD), standard deviation difference between adjacent normal to normal intervals(SDSD), high frequency oscillation power(Ln(HF)), normalized HF(Norm HF) in stress group were lower than non-stress group significantly and normalized LF(Norm LF) was higher. Conclusions : This results show that the stress was associated with neck muscle condition and autonomic nervous system.

1. Objectives When we give Jowiseungcheong-tang to Taeumin patients, analyzing a change of their autonomic nervous system. It is measured by the heart rate variability(HRV) analyzer. 2. Methods We give Jowiseungcheong-tang to ten Taeumin patients for three days and examine the HRV at first time and three days later. 3. Results and Conclusions We compared two HRV results. The value of RRNN(average of normal RR intervals), SDNN(the standard deviation of all normal RR intervals), RMSSD(the root mean square of successive differences between the normal heart beats) have a downward tendency. Norm HF(normalized high frequency power) have a upward tendency. norm LF (normalized low frequency power) and LHR(LF/HF ratio) have a downward tendency. It means hypofunction of autonomic nervous system. But all results are not significant. We think that restudy is needed with more patients and longer periods afterward.

This study deals with the measurement of relational norms, a safeguard for sustained exchange relationshipsim marketing channel systems. Here, the relational norm items are hypothesized to have a second-order factor model, in which mine observed items originate from the three first-order factors and the first order factors in turn originate from a second-order factor. The three first order construe comprising a higher order norm are mutuality(equity in the distribution of benefits and burdens over the course of the exchange on a long term basis), flexibility(expectation of friendly adaption for possible circumstance changes), and solidarity (the degree to which the preservation of the unique and continuing relationship is internalized by the exchange partners as being important in and of itself). 113 research questionnaires are obtained from four industries such as construction, telecommunication, iron, and electric ＆ electronic industries, Reliability and nomological. discriminant validity are tested, and in using the confirmatory factor analysis of Lisrel 7.16, and the chi-square difference test it is tested which has a better satisfactory fit to the data, the first-order model or the second-order one. The results of this study indicates that relational norms have a second order construct. In the electric and electronic industry the model as a while has a satisfactory fit to the data and the relevant first- and second-order factor loading to the mutuality is not significant. Same Results are happened to the flexibility in the telecommunication industry and to the mutuality and flexibility in the inn industry. In sum, the model lends support to our construct, but it is difficult to apply the measurement model to all kinds of industries.

Objectives : This study sought to define autonomic functional difference on heart rate variability between headache patients and normal subjects Methods : We determined, heart rate variability of 52 headache patients and 30 normal subjects by means of three time domain measures: Mean PR(mean pulse rate), SDNN(standard deviation of all normal R-R intervals), RMSSD(the square root of the mean of sum of the squares of differences between adjacent normal R-R intervals), and five frequency domain measures: TP(total power), VLF(very low frequency), LF(low frequency), HF(high frequency). Results : 1) RMSSD, TP, HF, HF Norm of HRV decreased with aging and LF Norm, LF/HF increased with aging in headache patients. 2) There was no significant differences between migraine and tention headache in any standard index of HRV, whereas, HRV of total headache patients were smaller than those of normal subjects. 3) In the gender comparison, SDNN, RMSSD, HF of tention headache patients were the smallest and then migraine patients, normal subjects in order with man, whereas, LF Norm, LF/HF of normal subjects were the smallest with man. RMSSD of migraine patients were the smallest and then tention headache patients, normal subjects in order with women. 4) In the term of history of headache patients, SDNN, RMSSD were getting lower as long term. 5) There was no significant differences of HRV in physical symptom of headache patients. Conclusions : All of these results show that standard index of HRV of headache patients were significantly different with normal subjects.

Objectives This study was designed to assess the effectiveness of ultrasound therapy at the ST11 for regulation of sympathetic hyperactivity. Methods Forty healthy adult subjects were assigned to experimental group and control group. After taking mental stress, ultrasound therapy was applied at the ST11 in experimental group and sham-ultrasound therapy was applied in control group. The evaluation of sympathetic activity was measured by blood pressure, pulse rate, and heart rate variability at 3 times (Time 1: before the stress stimulation, Time 2: after the stress stimulation, Time 3: after the intervention). The primary end point was consisted of normalized (norm) low frequency (LF)/high frequency (HF) ratio, LF (norm), HF (norm). The secondary end point was consisted of systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, pulse rate, mean heart rate, standard deviation of NN intervals, root mean square of the successive differences, total power (log). Results After the stress stimulation, all subjects showed sympathetic hyperactivity. After the intervention, the experimental group showed lower sympathetic activity than the control group. Comparing the Time 3 and Time 1, the experimental group showed no significantly differences in sympathetic activity while the control group showed higher sympathetic activity in Time 3 than Time 1. Comparing the Time 3 and Time 2, the experimental group showed lower sympathetic activity in Time 3 than Time 2 while the control group showed higher sympathetic activity in Time 3 than Time 2. Conclusions We suggest that the ultrasound therapy at ST11 can decrease sympathetic activity in sympathetic hyperactivity condition.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to test a model for intention to discontinuation drinking high caffeinated beverages among undergraduate students. This model was based on the Ajzen's theory of planned behavior and Becker's health belief model. Methods: Participants consisted of 201 undergraduate students. Data were collected by questionnaires from March 11 to May 24, 2019. Collected data were analyzed using SPSS/WIN 22.0, AMOS 22.0 program. Results: The assessment of the model indicated an acceptable fit (normed x²=1.65, goodness-of-fit index [GFI]=.83, adjusted GFI=.79, comparative fit index [CFI]=.92, standardized root mean square residual [SRMR]=.05, Tucker-Lewis index [TLI]=.91, normed fit index [NFI]=.87, root mean square error of approximation [RMSEA]=.07). Perceived behavior control, subjective norm, the subjective attitude was found to have a significant direct effect on the intention to discontinuation of drinking a high caffeinated beverage. The variances of this model explained 45.3% of the variance in intention to discontinuation of drinking a high caffeinated beverage. Conclusion: These results suggest that a need to increase awareness of adverse effects and potential risks of high caffeinated beverage consumption in undergraduate students. Besides, the university and government should provide education and campaigns to prevent excessive high-caffeinated beverage consumption.

We present an optimized integer cosine transform(OICT) as an alternative approach to the conventional discrete cosine transform(DCT), and its fast computational algorithm. In the actual implementation of the OICT, we have used the techniques similar to those of the orthogonal integer transform(OIT). The normalization factors are approximated to single one while keeping the reconstruction error at the best tolerable level. By obtaining a single normalization factor, both forward and inverse transform are performed using only the integers. However, there are so many sets of integers that are selected in the above manner, the best OICT matrix obtained through value minimizing the Hibert-Schmidt norm and achieving fast computational algorithm. Using matrix decomposing, a fast algorithm for efficient computation of the order-8 OICT is developed, which is minimized to 20 integer multiplications. This enables us to implement a high performance 2-D DCT processor by replacing the floating point operations by the integer number operations. We have also run the simulation to test the performance of the order-8 OICT with the transform efficiency, maximum reducible bits, and mean square error for the Wiener filter. When the results are compared to those of the DCT and OIT, the OICT has out-performed them all. Furthermore, when the conventional DCT coefficients are reduced to 7-bit as those of the OICT, the resulting reconstructed images were critically impaired losing the orthogonal property of the original DCT. However, the 7-bit OICT maintains a zero mean square reconstruction error.

Traditionally, polynomials have been used to approximte functions with prescribed values at a number of points(called the knots) on a given interal on the real line. The method of splines recently developed is more flexible. It approximates a function in a piece-wise fashion, by means of a different polynomial in each subinterval. The cubic spline gas ets origins in beam theory. It possessed continuous first and second deriatives at the knots and is characterised by a minimum curvature property which es rdlated to the physical feature of minimum potential energy of the supported beam. Translated into mathematical terms, this means that between successive knots the approximation yields a third-order polynomial sith its first derivatives continuous at the knots. The minimum curvature property holds good for each subinterval as well as for the whole region of approximation This means that the integral of the square of the second derivative over the entire interval, and also over each subinterval, es to be minimized. Thus, the task of determining the spline lffers itself as a textbook problem in discrete computer programming, since the integral of ghe square of the second derivative can be obviously recognized as the criterion function whicg gas to be minimized. Starting with the initial value of the function and assuming an initial solpe of the curve, the minimum norm property of the curvature makes sequential decision of the slope at successive knots (points) feasible. It is the aim of this paper to derive the cubic spline by the methods of computer programming and show that the results which is computed the all the alues in each subinterval of the spline approximations.

본 연구는 계속구강건강관리가 잘 이루어지지 않는 근로자를 대상으로 계획된 행동이론에 기초하여 구강질환이 있을 경우 치과치료이용을 하려는 의도에 미치는 요인을 조사를 하였다. 이에 치과의료를 이용할 의도를 높일뿐만 아니라 실제 치과의료 이용으로 실행될 수 있는 방안을 마련하는데 기초자료로 쓰이고자 시도되었다. 연구대상상자는 1,016명 중 현재 치과치료를 받는 환자 53명과 지난 6개월간 치과방문을 경험한 사람 355명을 제외한 총 608명을 대상으로 조사 분석하여 얻은 결론은 다음과 같다. 1. TPB 변인과 의도의 상관관계는 행동에 대한 태도, 주관적 규범, 인지된 행동통제의 순으로 나타났으나 인지된 행동통제는 유의하지 않았다. 2. 치과의료이용 의도에 영향을 미치는 일반적 특성은 경제상태로서 여유가 있다고 생각할수록 의도가 높게 나타났으며, TPB 변인 중에서는 치과의료이용과 관련된 행동에 대한 태도와 주관적 규범이 유의한 영향을 주었다. 3. 일반 선형회귀분석한 결과 모형의 설명력은 21%로 나타났다. 구강질환이 있을 경우 치과의료를 이용할 의도가 높다고 하더라도 실제 상황에서는 행동으로 실행이 되지 않을 가능성이 높을 것으로 간주된다. 하지만 의도가 낮은 사람에 비하여 의도가 높은 사람이 실제 치과의료이용을 할 가능성이 높다. 따라서 의도에 영향을 주는 치과의료이용에 관련된 태도와 주관적 규범이 긍정적으로 형성되며 인식할 수 있도록 구강보건교육을 통하여 동기부여가 되어야 하겠다. 그렇게 위해서는 산업장 구강검진이 일회성 형식에 그치지 않으며 구강질환자는 검진치의사의 강력한 치료권고를 통하여 치과치료를 받을 수 있도록 유도하여야 하고, 계속구강건강관리프로그램이 전면적으로 실행되면서 활성화되어 근로자들의 구강건강증진이 이루어져야 하겠다.

Optimality conditions are derived for a nonlinear program in which a support function appears in the objective as well as in each constraint function. Wolfe and Mond-Weir type duals to this program are presented and various duality results are established under suitable convexity and generalized convexity assumptions. Special cases that often occur in the literature are those in which a support function is the square root of a positive semi- definite quadratic form or an Lp norm. It is pointed out that these special cases can easily be generated from our results.
