Park Sang‐Hyun,Baek Seung‐Ho,Moon Tae‐Young 한국곤충학회 2021 Entomological Research Vol.51 No.11

The decomposition process is an important factor in forensics, and flies play a crucial role in the decomposition of animals and humans. However, there remains limited information on the effect of flies that attend death scenes. This study assesses the effect of the presence or absence of blowflies on the rate and process of cadaver decomposition in the spring, summer, and autumn from 2016 to 2020 on Yeongdo Island, Busan, South Korea. Nine blowfly species belonging to four genera in two subfamilies were sampled. The blowflies that approached the cadavers differed between seasons, but Chrysomya pinguis (Walker) was the dominant species regardless of the season. Blowfly presence on cadavers significantly affected the duration of the decomposition stage and the pattern of weight loss in nearly all scenarios. With the presence of blowflies, the decomposition rate was four times faster in spring, three times faster in summer, and nine times faster in autumn. These results show that the presence or absence of blowflies is an essential factor in the decomposition process of cadavers. Therefore, it should be taken into account when estimating postmortem intervals in medicolegal forensic entomology.

목적 : 2002년 말 중국에서 SARS가 발생한 이후 국내에서도 2003년 10월까지 총 3명의 추정환자, 17명의 의심환자가 보고되었다. 향후 추가적인 SARS의 유행이 우려되는 상황에서, 그간의 SARS 환자 진료에 있어서의 실질적인 준비사항, 진료 현황 등에 대한 조사를 통해 문제점을 파악하여, 향후 더 나은 대비가 될 수 있도록 개선점을 제시하고자 하였다. 재료 및 방법 : SARS로 의심되는 환자를 진료 경험이 있는 병원의료진을 대상으로 2003년 10월에 설문조사를 실시하였다. 설문에는 SARS 환자 진료 시의 실질적인 조치, 진료 현황, 병실, 응급실 및 외래에서의 격리 시설과 준비사항, 보건당국의 관리와 지원에 관한 사항을 포함하였다. 결과 : 대상이 되는 22개 병원 중 17개(17/22, 77.2%) 병원이 설문에 응하였다. SARS 환자를 위한 격리실은 응급실, 외래, 일반병실 및 중환자실에서 각각 9개(9/17, 52.9%), 5개(5/17, 29.4%), 15개(15/16, 93.7%), 4개(4/16, 25%) 병원에서 음압처리가 되어있지 않은 일인실 혹은 다인실이 사용되었고, 1개(1/16, 6.3%) 병원에서만 일반병실에서 음압격리실이 운영되었다. 입원환자의 진찰 시 개인보호구의 착용은 거의 모든 의료기관에서 이루어졌다. 보건당국에서 SARS지정병원의 시설 등을 사전에 확인한 곳은 1곳(1/12, 8.3%)이였고, 14개 병원(14/15, 93.3%)에서는 보건당국에 의뢰한 검사결과를 통하 받지 못하였다. 결론 : 의료기관에서 SARS 환자용 격리실뿐만 아니라 기존의 격리실 설비 등이 미흡하였으며, 특히 중환자실 및 외래의 준비가 더욱 부족하였다. 보건당국의 의료기관에 대한 종합적인 지원이 부족하였고, 병원과의 원활한 연계가 잘 이루어지지 않았다. SARS 만이 아닌 격리를 필요로 하는 질환의 적절한 진료를 위해 향후 병원 시설의 정비와 정부차원에서의 보다 구체적이고 실질적인 대책마련이 필요하다. Background : There was an worldwide outbreak of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) originated from China in late 2002. During that period three cases of suspected SARS and 17 cases of probable SARS were reported in Korea. With the concerns about the reemergence of SARS-coV transmission, it is important to be prepared for any possibility. So, this study is aimed to analysis the past measures in managing SARS and propose the amendatory plans to improve the preparedness. Materials & Methods : Questionnaires were collected among clinicians with any experience in managing the probable or suspected SARS cases in Oct. 2003. 17 out of 22 hospitals responded to the questionnaire. The contents in the questionnaire were practical activities, personal equipments, response plans, isolation facilities in emergency centers, outpatient clinics, general wards and intensive care units, and relationship with the public health department. Results : The dedicated isolation rooms in emergency centers, outpatient clinics, general wards, and intensive care units were prepared in 9 (9/17, 52.9%), 5 (5/17, 29.4%), 15 (15/16, 93.7%), and 4 (4/16, 25.0%) hospitals, respectively. Except for one hospital that newly made negative pressure room for SARS, single or multi-bed rooms without airborne infection control were used in all the other hospitals. The personal precaution principles were kept quite well in general wards. Before the designation of SARS hospital by the public health department prior evalution to see if the hospital was suitable for managing SARS was conducted in only 1 (1/12, 8.3%) hospital. The results of laboratory diagnosis were reported back in 1 (1/15, 6.6%) hospital. Conclusions : The isolation facilities which can control airborne infection were almost deficient not only for SARS but also for other respiratory transmissible diseases. For the infection control of transmissible diseases including SARS, more investment is needed on medical facilities and comprehensive support from the public health department required.

백상현,채민수,배태성 대한치과기재학회 1996 대한치과재료학회지 Vol.23 No.1

This study was performed to investigate the effects of thermal cycling on the strength of light cured restorative composite resins. Five commerically available light-activated composite resins(Photo Clearfil A : CA. Lite-Fil A : LF, Clearfil Photo Posterior : CP, Prisma AP.H. : PA, Z100 : ZH) were used. The specimens of 12mm in diameter and 0.7mm in thickness were made, and a thermal cycling test of 1000 cycles at 15 seconds dwell time each in 5℃ and 55℃ baths was performed. In order to investigate the deterioration of composite resins in the thermal cycling test, the bi-axial flexure strengths were measured, and the surface after thermal cycling test were examined by SEM. The results obtained were summarized as follows; 1. Biaxial flexure strength significantly decreased due to the thermal cycling(P<0.01). 2. Biaxial flexure strengths showed the maximum value of 125.65MPa for ZH group and the minimum value of 64.86MPa for ZA group, after thermal cycling test, Biaxial fleure strengths of ZH and CP group were higher then those of PA, CF, and CA groups after thermal cycling test(p<0.05). 3. Fracture surfaces showed that the composite resin failure developed along the matrix and the filler/resin interface region, and the cracks propagated in the conical shape from the maximum tensile stress zone.

백태현,김명수,조성호 한국비파괴검사학회 2001 한국비파괴검사학회지 Vol.21 No.2

광탄성법은 전체적인 응력장 해석을 위하여 가장 많이 사용되는 방법중의 하나이다. 광탄성법에서 주응력의 차이와 방향은 등색선과 등경선으로 나타난다. 재래식 방법으로는 주응력 방향은 평면 편광기의 편광자와 검광자를 동시에 회전시켜 수작업으로 측정하며, 이를 타디보간법이라 한다. 이러한 방법은 전체적인 응력장 해석시 매우 번거로우며 많은 시간이 걸린다. 재래식 광탄성법에서는 광탄성 프린지로부터 등경선을 분리시킬 수 없다. 본 연구에서는 광탄성이론을 Jones행렬로 나타내고 4단계와 8단계의 위상이동법에 대해서 기술하였다. 컴퓨터시뮬레이션을 통하여 압축하중을 받는 원형디스크의 광탄성 프린지로부터 등경선과 등색선을 분리시킬 수 있는 시험을 하였다. 디스크의 프린지는 응력-광 법칙에 의하여 생성하였다. 8단계 위상이동법으로 얻은 등경선과 등색선의 크기를 이론으로 계산한 값과 비교하였다. 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션으로부터 광탄성 프린지로부터 등경선과 등색선을 분리시킬 수 있는 가능성ㅇ르 예시하였다. Photoelasticity is one of the most widely used methods for whole field stress analysis. In photoelasticity, the difference and the directions of the principal stresses are given isochromatic and isoclinic fringe patterns. Conventionally, principal stress directions are measured by rotating the polarizer and analyzer of a plane polariscope at the same time. This is known to be the Tardy compensation method. This measurement can be very tedious and time consuming in whold field analysis. It is not possible to separate isoclincs from photoelastic fringes by conventional photoelastic technique. In this study, photoelastic theory is represented by Jones matrices and 4-steps and 8-steps phase shifting methods are described. A feasibility study using computer simulation is done to separate isoclincs and isochomatics from photoelastic fringes of a circular disk under diametrical compression. Fringe patterns of the disk are generated using stress optic law. The magnitudes of isoclincs and isochromatics obtained from 8-step phase shifting method are compared with those of theories. From computer simulation, it is verified to separate isoclincs and isochmatics from photoelastic fringes.

광탄성프린지 위상이동법을 이용한 에지균열판의 응력 해석

백태현,김명수,조성호 한국비파괴검사학회 2000 한국비파괴검사학회지 Vol.20 No.3

광탄성법은 투명한 물체에 힘을 가하면 복굴절 현상이 나타나며, 편광기에 의해 등색 및 등경프린지가 나타난다. 등색프린지를 이용하여 주응력차이 또는 평면상 전단응력을 계산할 수 있으며, 등경프린지에 의해 주응력 방향을 결정할 수 있다. 재래식 광탄성법에서는 특정한 위치에서 프린지를 개별적으로 측정해야 되는 불편한 점이 있어, 디지털 영상처리에 의해 광탄성 프린지로부터 전체적인 응력장을 해석할 수 있도록 프린지이동에 의한 위상이동법이 개발되었다. 프린지 위상이동법은 원형편광기에서 검광자를 0˚, 45˚, 90˚ 및 135˚회전시켜 프린지가 이동된 4개의 영상을 얻고, 이들로부터 위상차리로 나타나는 프린지분포를 측정한다. 본 연구에서는 프린지 위상이동법에 관한 광학적인 이론을 이용하여 압축하중을 받는 원형디스크의 프린지분포를 위상이동법으로 측정한 후 이론 값과 비교하였다. 또한, 인장하중을 받는 에지균열판의 응력분포 해석에 프린지 위상이동법을 적용하였다. 실험결과, 프린지 위상이동법으로 측정한 결과는 유한요소 해석 결과와 잘 일치하였다. 광탄성에서 위상이동법은 등경선과 평행하거나 직교하는 선상에서 응력분포를 용이하게 측정할 수 있으나, 일반적인 프린지 해석시 프린지 위상이동법을 적용하면 오차가 포함될 수 있다. The method of photoelasticity allows one to obtain principal stress differences and principal stress directions in a photoelastic model. In the classical approach, the photoelastic parameters are measured manually point by point. The previous methods require much time and skill in the identification and measurement of photoelastic data. Fringe phase shifting method has been recently developed and widely used to measure and analyze fringe data in photo-mechanics. This paper presents the test results of photoelastic fringe phase shifting technique for the stress analysis of a circular disk under compression and an edge-cracked plate subjectes to tensile load. The technique used here requires four phase stepped photoelastic images obtained from a circular polariscope by rotating the analyzer at 0˚, 45˚, 90˚ and 135˚. Experimental results are compared with those of FEM. Good agreement between the results can be observed. However, some error may be included if the technique is used to general direction which is not parallel to isoclinic fringe.

The purpose of this present study was to investigate the effect of VitaminQ supplementation on antioxidant enzyme activities and cardiorespiratory function following prolonged exercise in trained triathlers. Male 14 healthy college students of trained triathlers participated in exercise sessions. The subjects were divided into 2 groups, as Non-supplement(NS) or VitaminQ supplement(VQ) groups. VitaminQ subjects were participated in two exercise sessions: an initial prolonged exercise(swim 750m, running 10㎞) and 70%V O2max treadmill running exercise. The Non-supplement group fed normal diet. VitaminQ group adminstated 90㎎/day for 4weeks. Venous blood samples were drown from the forearm antecubital vein pre-supplement, pre-exercise and immediately post-exercise. The results of this study can be summarized as follow: First, the SOD activity of RBC was not changed, while the GPx, GR or GR/GPx activies of Hb were significantly increased following prolonged exercise with CoQ10 supplementation. Second, 70%VO2max treadmill running exercise increased significantly the V O2max and VE, but the heart rate significantly decreased. In conclusion, the present results clearly show that the VitaminQ supplementation gave rise to increase the GPx or GR activies and to improve the cardiorespiratory function.

조혈모세포이식 후 골성장인자의 변화 및 골대사에 미치는 영향 : Impact on Bone Mineral Metabolism

백기현,오은숙,오기원,이원영,김혜수,권순용,한제호,강무일,차봉연,이광우,손호영,강성구,김춘추 대한내분비학회 2002 Endocrinology and metabolism Vol.17 No.5

연구배경: 각종 장기이식의 시행이 많아지고 이식 후 생존율이 증가함에 따라 이식 후 합병증에 대한 관심 또한 높아지고 있다. 조혈모세포이식 후에도 다양한 내분비적 합병증이 발생할 수 있으며 골격에 대한 합병증도 문제점으로 대두되고 있다. 조혈모세포 이식 후 발생하는 골소실에는 이식 후 초기의 골형성 저하와 골흡수 증가가 중요한 역할을 담당하리라고 추측되는데 이러한 골재형성불일치(biochemical uncoupling)에 골 성장인자들이 미치는 영향에 대해서는 알려진 바가 없다. 본 연구에서는 조혈모세포이식 전, 후로 말초 혈액에서 IGF-I, FGF-2, M-CSF같은 성장인자의 변화를 알아보고, 이들 성장인자의 변화가 조혈모세포이식 후의 골형과 골흡수에 미치는 영향 및 이식 후 발생되는 골량 소실과의 연관성을 확인해 보고자 하였다. 방법: 여러 가지 혈액질환으로 인해 동종 골수이식을 시행 받은 환자들을 전향적으로 관찰하였으며 이식 전 및 이식 후 1주, 2주, 3주, 4주 및 3개월, 6개월 1년에 말초 혈액에서 골교체표지자를 측정하였다. 이식 전 및 이식1년 후에 요추골 및 대퇴골 골밀도를 측정할 수 있었던 36명의 환자들을 대상으로 냉동 보관되어 있던 혈청을 이용하여 IGF-I, FGF-2 및 M-CSF를 시기별로 측정하였으며 이들 성장인자와 골교체표지자의 변화 및 골밀도 변화 사이의 상관관계를 확인하였다. 결과: 골흡수 표지자인 혈청 ICTP는 이식 전에 비해 이식 후 4주까지 점차 의의 있게 증가하다가 이후 6개월까지 더욱 증가한 후 감소하였다. 골형성 표지자인 osteocalcin은 이식 후 3주까지는 점차 감소하다가 이후 증가하여 이식 후 3개월 및 6개월에 기저치보다 통계적으로 유의하게 증가한 후 감소하였다. 혈청 IGF-I과 FGF-2는 각각 이식 후 3주 및 1주까지 의미있게 감소하다가 이후 증가하였으며 혈청 M-CSF는 이식 후 1주째에 기저치에 비해 의미 있게 증가하였다가 이후 기저치로 회복되었다. 이식 1년 후 평균 요추부 골밀도는 5.2% 감소하였고 평균 근위대퇴골 골밀도는 11.6% 감소하였다. 이식 전 및 이식 후 3주에 측정한 IGF-I과 같은 시기에 측정한 오스테오칼신 사이에 유의한 상관관계가 관찰되었으며 이식 후 3주째의 M-CSF와 골흡수표지자인 M-CSF 사이에서 의미 있는 양의 상관관계를 관찰할 수 있었다. 이식 후 3주 및 3개월에 IGF-I이 낮은 환자일수록 이식 1년 후 근위대퇴골에서의 골소실이 많은 것으로 분석되었다. 결론: 조혈모세포이식 후 발생하는 골소실에는 기존에 알려진 기저질환의 영향, 성호르몬의 감소, 면역억제의 투여, 골수기질세포와 조골세포의 손상 및 이식초기 사이토카인의 변화이외에도 골성장인자가 관련이 있음을 확인하였고, 이는 이식 후 발생되는 골량소실에 중요한 역할을 할 것이라고 사료된다. Background: A loss of bone mass is usually detected after a bone marrow transplantation (BMT), especially during the early post-transplant period. We recently reported that enhanced bone resorption following a BMT was related to both the steroid dose and the increase in IL-6. We also suggested damage to the marrow stromal microenvironment, by myoablation, partly explains the impaired bone formation following a BMT. It is well known that some growth factor play important role in bone growth and osteogenesis. However, the pathogenetic role of bone growth factors in post-BMT bone loss is unknown and data on the changes in the growth factors, in accordance with bone turnover markers and bone mineral density (BMD) changes are scarce. We investigated changes in bone growth factors such as IGF-I (Insulin-like growth factor-I), fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) and Macrophage colony stimulating factor (M-CSF), during the post-BMT period, and assessed whether the growth factor changes influenced the bone turnover and post-BMT bone loss. The present study is the first prospective study to describe the changes in bone growth factors following a BMT. Methods: We prospectively investigated 110 patients undergoing a BMT, and analyzed 36 patients (32.4±1.3 years, 17 men and 19 women) whose BMDs were measured before, and 1 year after, the BMT. The serum biochemical markers of bone turnover were measured before, 1, 2, 3 and 4 weeks, 3 and 6 months, and 1 year, after the BMT. The serum, FGF-2, IGF-I and M-CSF levels were measured before and 1 and 3 weeks, and 3 months after the BMT. The correlation between the changes of growth factors and various bone parameters was analyzed. Results: The mean bone losses in the lumbar spine and total proximal femur, calculated as the percentage change from the baseline to the level at 1 year, were 5.2(p<0.05) and 11.6%(p<0.01), respectively. the serum type I carboxyterminal telopeptide(ICTP), a bone resorption marker, increased progressively until 6 months after the BMT, but thereafter decreased, to the base value after 1 year. Serum osteocalcin, a bone formation marker, decreased progressively, until 3 weeks after the BMT but then increased transiently, and finally returned to the base level at 1 year. The serum IGF-I and FGF-2 also decreased progressively until 3 weeks 1 week after the BMT, respectively, then increased to the base values at 3 months. The serum M-CSF increased briskly at 1 week post-BMT, then decreased to the base level. There were positive correlations between the percentage changes from the baseline proximal femur BMD and the IGF-I levels 3 weeks and 3 months (r=0.52, p<0.01, r=0.41, p<0.05) post BMT. A significant correlation was found between the IGF-I and osteocalcin levels pre-BMT, and 3 weeks after the BMT. Another positive correlation was found between the M-CSF and the ICTP levels at 3 weeks post BMT (r=0.54, p<0.05). Conclusion: In conclusion, there were significant changes in the serum IGF-I, FGF-2 and M-CSF levels in the immediate post-BMT period, which were related to a decrease in bone formation and loss in the proximal femoral BMD during the year following the BMT (J Kor Soc Endocrinol 17:664∼674, 2002).

This study was designed to investigate the characteristics of atmospheric concentrations of toxic volatile organic compounds (VOC_(s)) in Korea. Target compounds included 1, 3-butadiene, aromatics such as BTEX, and a number of carbonyl compounds. In this paper, as the first part of the study, the performance of sampling and analytical methods was evaluated for the measurement of selected VOC_(s) and carbonyl compounds in the ambient air. VOC_(s) were determined by the adsorbent tube sampling and automatic thermal desorption coupled with GC/MSD analysis, while carbonyls by the DNPH-silica cartridge sampling with HPLC analysis. The methodology was investigated with a wide range of performance criteria such as repeatability, linearity, lower detection limits, collection efficiency, thermal conditioning, breakthrough volume and calibration methods using internal standards. In addition, the sampling and analytical methods established in this study were applied to real field samples duplicately collected in various ambient environments. Precisions for the duplicate samples appeared to be comparable with the performance criteria recommended by USEPA TO-17. The overall precision of the sampling and analytical methods was estimated to be within 20-30% for major aromatic VOC_(s) such as BTEX, whereas the precision for major carbonyl compounds such as formaldehyde and acetaldehyde was within 10-20% for field samples. This study demonstrated that the adsorbent sampling and thermal desorption method can be reliably applied for the measurement of BTEX in ppb levels frequently occurred in common indoor and ambient environments.

They showed higher rate of 91 percents in the thirties and forties, 92 percents of the married, 93.9 percents in junior college graduates, 97.2 percents in higher economic classes, 88.7 percents in smokers, 85 percents in general bed, 89.3 percents in sleeping on one's face, 85 percents in swimming, 92 percents in stretch, 86.7 percents in 56 to 60 kilograms of weight, 89.7 percents in group O blood, 90.5 percents in experienced women of abortion, 97 percents in heel over 8 centimeters, 58.3 percents in 'feel much fatigue', 93.6 percents in inconvenient chair of beauty shop, and 89.4 percents in a lack of recess than other group. 3) The more women who have been experienced in lumbago, the higher their social treatment(p<0.01), income(p<0.001), working time(p<0.05), job potentiality(p<0.05), inner affinity(p<0.05), and job satisfaction of environment(p<0.001) were. Women who suffered much stress related to job environment(p<0.001), client(p<0.01), and their duty(p<0.01) showed high rate of lumbaginous experience. 4) In degree of lumbago by characteristic, there was the significant difference in age over 50-years-old, unmarried women, college graduates, service of small-medium cities, higher economic classes, smokers or drinkers, hot-floored room, sleeping with ransack, stretch or swimming, group A blood, fat body, experience of abortion, 6 to 7 centimeters of heel, convenient chair of beauty shop, insufficient recess, lumbago continued for one to the three months in comparison of other group. 5) There were variables of posture such as to place materials under one foot(p<0.001), to lay arm on armrest and desk(p<0.001), to pull materials near body while lifting them (p<0.05), to sometimes use anodyne(p<0.01), not to lift also light materials(p<0.001), to be inconvenient in sleeping(p<0.001), to be absent at job for two or three days(p<0.01). The degree of depression(p<0.001), had the significant effect on the degree of lumbago(32.7%). The results are as follows : Beauty artists have faced upon dangerous job environment to cause lumbago. The more the industrial society will be developed, the more their burden of service will be increased. In addition, the occupational stress and posture of beauty artists who showed high job satisfaction and high economical level became major factors which have had an effect on their lumbago. In conclusion, it is desirable for beauty-related organizations and professionals to positively develop program of health education with much concern as well as to lessen stress of beauty artists through education of job posture and rightful life in order to prevent lumbago of those beaut.
