중국에서 이루어진 일본의 한자교육에 대한 연구는 대외 중국어 교육의 중요한 부분 중 하나이기 때문에, 이전의 많은 학자들은 이에 관심을 가지고 여러 방면에서 연구를 진행하였다. 본고는 중국에서 이루어진 일본의 한자교육과 관련된 문장과 논문, 전문 저서 79편을 분석하고 이를 분류하여 정리한 후綜述 부분에서 자형과 자음, 자의의 세 방면으로 나누어 각기 그 연구 성과를 비평하였다. 이러한 기초 위에 본문에서는 일본의 한자교육의 발전 상황에 대해 집중적으로 논의하였다. 30여년 동안의 발전을 통해 일본의 한자교육에 대한 중국에서의 연구 성과는 양적으로는 풍부하지만 연구의 방향이 경도화되어 있으며, 개별 국가에 맞는 특수한 교육의 방법에 대해서도 아직까지 더 많은 발전이 요구되는 상황이다. Teaching of Chinese character is an important part of teaching Chinese language to students whose mother tongue is Japanese, for that the relationship between Japanese characters and Chinese characters may result in unique learning features and difficulties among language learners. A great amount of the research work has been done by professors and experts in this field, and in this article, we aim at doing a brief review of their works and put forward some proposals. A total number of 83 pieces of material written in Chinese language are collected, including research papers, theses and books. We first analyzed and generalized these works and then illustrated them specifically in three aspects of a character: the grapheme, the pronunciation and the meaning. Based on the brief review, we think that a strong record of research has been achieved. And to further investigate into this field, we propose that more focus could be put on studies concerning the teaching of pronunciation as well as meaning, and that individual differences showed among Korean students and Japanese students also call for more attention.

Comics with Drama: New Communication in Wedia

( Jia-wen Hu ),( Seng-su Tsang ) 한국인터넷정보학회 2015 KSII Transactions on Internet and Information Syst Vol.9 No.10

We-the-media (aka wedia) is a concept where the users of social networking sites, such as Facebook, turn into the broadcasters. This study used the popular application Bitstrips as the experiment tool. Facebook was used as the Wedia platform for publishing designed comics, then used the three elements of Goffman`s dramaturgy model―role, scene and dialog―to analyze 265 comics created by 3 researchers and observe the audience`s responses within 9 months. The results showed that people want to see a good story with positive dialogue, and prefer scene is school more than work. As all these elements are controllable, Wedia communication has the potential for more applications. We also found that including the elements of news, gambling and gift-giving tended to trigger greater response. Furthermore, We suggesting that such embedding of product information in web episodes (webisodes) with caricature could be a successful marketing strategy.

Honokiol is an active compound purified from magnolia that has been shown to induce cell differentiation, apoptosis, and anti-angiogenesis effects, as well as an enhancement in tumor growth delay in combination with chemotherapeutic agents in several mouse xenograft models. Our goal was to investigate the radiosensitization effect of honokiol on lung carcinoma. The radiosensitization effect of liposomal honokiol in Lewis lung carcinoma cells (LL/2) was analyzed using an in vitro clonogenic survival assay. For an in vivo study, Lewis lung carcinoma-bearing C57BL/6 mice were treated with either liposomal honokiol at 25 mg/kg or 5 Gy of single tumor radiation, or a combination of both over 12 days of treatment. The tumor growth delay and the survival time were evaluated. In addition, histological analysis of tumor sections was performed to examine changes by detecting the microvessel density and apoptosis in tumor tissues. In the clonogenic survival assay, LL/2 cells treated with IC50 Lipo-HNK for 24 h showed a radiation enhancement ratio of 1.9. After 12 days of combination treatment, the tumor volume decreased 78% and produced an anti-tumor activity 1.3-fold greater than a predicted additive effect of honokiol and radiation alone. This combination treatment also caused an 8.7 day delay in tumor growth. The cell cycle distribution and histological analysis demonstrated that liposomal honokiol has an anti-tumor effect via inducing apoptosis and inhibiting angiogenesis. Liposomal honokiol can enhance tumor cell radiosensitivity in vitro and in vivo, indicating that radiotherapy combined with liposomal honokiol can lead to greater anti-tumor efficacy.

Jia, Liu-Qun,Shen, Yong-Chun,Guo, Shu-Jin,Hu, Qian-Jing,Pang, Cai-Shuang,Wang, Tao,Chen, Lei,Wen, Fu-Qiang Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2013 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.14 No.6

Background: The 2518 A/G polymorphism in the MCP-1 gene has been extensively studied for association swith cancer; however, results from replication studies have been inconsistent. The aim of this investigation was to determine links with risk of cancer by meta-analysis. Methods: We searched Pubmed, Embase, CNKI, Weipu and Wanfang databases, covering all case-control studies until March, 2013. Statistical analyses were performed using the Revman 5.0 software. Results: A total of 11 case-control studies met our inclusion criteria, including 1,422 cases and 2,237 controls. The results indicated that the MCP-1 2518 gene polymorphism had no association with cancer risk overall (GG vs.GA+ AA: OR = 0.89, 95%CI = 0.61-1.28, P = 0.52). However, in the subgroup analysis by ethnicity, a decrease of cancer risk was found in Asian populations (GG vs.GA+ AA: OR = 0.79, 95%CI = 0.63-0.99, P = 0.04). Conclusion: This meta-analysis suggested that the 2518A/G polymorphism of MCP-1 gene is associated with risk of cancer among Asian, but not in Caucasian populations.

Jia-Horng Lin,Lu Yang,Xianjin Hu,Haokai Peng,Haitao Ren,Ting-Ting Li,Ching-Wen Lou 한국공업화학회 2023 Journal of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry Vol.128 No.-

Bacterial infection is one of the major threats to human health worldwide, posing a great challenge to thedevelopment of medical protective materials with efficient filtration and long-lasting antimicrobial properties. In this study, electrospinning technology and non-woven fabrics were combined to construct amicro/nano-structured photodynamic rechargeable and storable antibacterial filtration composite membrane. The filtration efficiency of the composite membrane is as high as 99.99% for 0.5–5 lm particles,and the resistance pressure drop is 85 Pa. In addition, the release of OH and H2O2 from the compositefilm reached 5326.16 lg/g and 711.93 lg/g, respectively. After 7 cycles of quenching, the charging capacityretains more than 70 % of the original. It showed good antimicrobial properties even when storedunder dark conditions for one month. The bactericidal efficiency of the composite membrane againstE. coli and S. aureus exceeded 99% under both dark and light conditions. The development of this simpleand clean micro/nanofiber membrane provides a new idea for exploring photoactive antimicrobial andfiltration materials for medical protection.

Efficient Certificateless Signature Scheme on NTRU Lattice

( Jia Xie ),( Yupu Hu ),( Juntao Gao ),( Wen Gao ),( Mingming Jiang ) 한국인터넷정보학회 2016 KSII Transactions on Internet and Information Syst Vol.10 No.10

Because of the advantages of certificateless and no escrow feature over the regular signature and identity-based signature, certificateless signature has been widely applied in e-business, e-government and software security since it was proposed in 2003. Although a number of certificateless signature schemes have been proposed, there is only one lattice-based certificateless signature scheme which is still secure in the quantum era. But its efficiency is not very satisfactory. In this paper, the first certificateless signature scheme on NTRU lattice is proposed, which is proven to be secure in random oracle model. Moreover, the efficiency of the new scheme is higher than that of the only one lattice-based certificateless signature.

Liu, Wen,Gao, Fang-Fang,Li, Qun,Lv, Jia-Wei,Wang, Ying,Hu, Peng-Chao,Xiang, Qing-Ming,Wei, Lei Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2014 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.15 No.23

Side effects are an unavoidable consequence of chemotherapy drugs, during which liver injury often takes place. The current study was designed to investigate the protective effect of Astragalus polysaccharides (APS) against the hepatotoxicity induced by frequently-used chemical therapy agents, cyclophosphamide (CTX), docetaxel (DTX) and epirubicin (EPI)) in mice. Mice were divided into five groups, controls, low or high dose groups ($DTX_L$, $CTX_L$, $EPI_L$ or $DTX_H$, $CTX_H$, $EPI_H$), and low or high dose chemotherapeutics+APS groups ($DTX_L$+APS, $CTX_L$+APS, $EPI_L$+APS or $DTX_H$+APS, $CTX_H$+APS, $EPI_H$+APS). Controls were treated with equivalent normal saline for 28 days every other day; low or high dose group were intraperitoneal (i.p) injected with low or high doses of CTX, DTX and EPI for 28 days every other day; low or high dose chemotherapeutics+APS group were separately intraperitoneal (i.p) injected with chemotherapeutics for 28 days every other day and i.p with APS (100 mg/kg) for 7 days continually from the 22th to the 28th days. The body weight, serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST), histopathological features, and ultrastructure morphological change of liver tissues, protein expression level of caspase-3 were estimated at different time points. With high dose treatment of DTX, CTX and EPI, weight gain was inhibited and serum levels of ALT and AST were significantly increased. Sections of liver tissue showed massive hepatotoxicity in $CTX_H$ group compared to the control group, including hepatic lobule disorder, granular and vacuolar degeneration and necrosis in hepatic cells. These changes were confirmed at ultrastructural level, including obvious pyknosis, heterochromatin aggregation, nuclear membrane resolution, and chondrosome crystal decrease. Western blotting revealed that the protein levels of caspase-3 increased in $CTX_H$ group. The low dose groups exhibited trivial hepatotoxicity. More interestingly, after 100 mg/kg APS, liver injury was redecued not only regarding serum transaminase activities (low or high dose chemotherapeutics+APS group), but also from pathological and ultrastructural changes and the protein levels of caspase-3 ($CTX_H$+APS group). In conclusion, DTX, CTX and EPI induce liver damage in a dose dependent manner, whereas APS exerted protective effects.

Therapeutic Effects and Adverse Drug Reactions are Affected by Icotinib Exposure and CYP2C19 and EGFR Genotypes in Chinese Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients

Chen, Jia,Zheng, Xin,Liu, Dong-Yang,Zhao, Qian,Wu, Yi-Wen,Tan, Fen-Lai,Wang, Yin-Xiang,Jiang, Ji,Hu, Pei Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2014 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.15 No.17

Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate how CYP2C19 affects icotinib and metabolite' exposure, and to determine whether the exposure and EGFR genotype influences survival time, tumor metastasis and adverse drug reactions. Materials and Methods: 274 NSCLC patients who accepted 125mg icotinib/t.i.d. were chosen from a phase III study. Blood samples were obtained in $672^{nd}$ ($4^{th}$ week) and $1,680^{th}$ hours ($10^{th}$ week), and plasma was used to quantify the concentration of icotinib and blood cells were sampled to check the genotypes. Clinical data were also collected at the same time, including EGFR genotypes. Plasma concentrations were assessed by HPLC-MS/MS and genotype by sequencing. All data were analyzed through SPSS 17.0 and SAS 9.2. Results: CYP 2C19 genotypes affected bio-transformation from icotinib to M24 and M26, especially in poor-metabolisers. Higher icotinib concentrations (>1000 ng/mL) not only increased patient PFS and OS but also reduced tumor metastasis. Patients with mutant EGFR experienced a higher median PFS and OS (234 and 627 days), especially those with the 19del genotype demonstrating higher PR ratio. Patients who suffered grade II skin toxicity had a higher icotinib exposure than those with grade I skin toxicity or no adverse effects. Liver toxic reactions might occur in patients with greater M20 and M23 plasma concentrations. Conclusions: CYP2C19 polymorphisms significantly affect icotinib, M24 and M26 exposure. Patients with mutant EGFR genotype and higher icotinib concentration might have increased PFS and OS and lower tumor metastasis. Liver ADR events and serious skin effects might be respectively induced by greater M20, M23 and icotinib concentrations.

Yu-Jia Lin,Hsiao-Ting Chang,Ming-Hwai Lin,Ru-Yih Chen,Ping-Jen Chen,Wen-Yuan Lin,Jyh-Gang Hsieh,Ying-Wei Wang,Chung-Chieh Hu,Yi-Sheng Liou,Tai-Yuan Chiu,Chun-Yi Tu,Yi-Jen Wang,Bo-Ren Cheng,Tzeng-Ji Ch 한국한의학연구원 2021 Integrative Medicine Research Vol.10 No.2

Background: Medical staff may have difficulties in using conventional medicine to manage symptoms among terminally ill patients, including adverse effects of the treatment. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is regarded as a complementary or alternative medicine, and has been increasingly used in the field of palliative medicine in recent years. This study aimed to investigate the experiences of and attitudes toward using TCM among palliative care professionals, and to provide preliminary information about its use in palliative care. Methods: This was a cross-sectional survey study conducted in eight inpatient hospice wards in Taiwan between December 2014 and February 2016. The questionnaire was self-administered, and was analyzed with descriptive statistics including Pearson’s Chi-square test and Fisher’s exact test. Results: A total of 251 palliative care professionals responded to the questionnaire, of whom 89.7% and 88.9% believed that the use of TCM could improve the physical symptoms and quality of life in terminally ill patients, respectively. Overall, 59.8%, of respondents suggested that TCM had rare side effects, and 58.2% were worried that TCM could affect the liver and kidney function of patients. In total, 89.7% and 88.0% of professionals agreed there were no suitable clinical practice guidelines and educational programs, respectively, for TCM use in palliative care. Conclusions: Most of the respondents agreed there was insufficient knowledge, skills-training, and continuing education on the use of TCM in terminally ill patients in Taiwan. These results show that to address patient safety considerations, guidelines about use of TCM in palliative care should be established.

Granular Effects on Depositional Processes of Debris Avalanches

Yu-xiang Hu,Hai-bo Li,Shun-chao Qi,Gang Fan,Jia-wen Zhou 대한토목학회 2020 KSCE JOURNAL OF CIVIL ENGINEERING Vol.24 No.4

Debris avalanches generally have massive mobility and extensive deposited area, which have strong relation to the granular effect. The granular effect is an outcome from the interaction (based on frictional mechanism) among particles. Discrepancy of grain composition, for instance the difference of particle size and their proportion of particles, is a key factor to influence granular effect. A series of laboratory tests have been conducted to research the granular effects on depositional processes of debris avalanches containing fine- and coarse-grained particles. The velocity of debris front, the morphology characteristics and runout distance of the debris avalanche are considered in detail, and the mass parameter and the size parameter are introduced in analysis for the research of granular effect. The experimental results indicate that the granular effects can decrease the dissipation of momentum and increase the accumulation region, leading to further runout distance and more extensive deposited areas. Further, the velocity, the range of depositions of debris avalanches are larger than that in other conditions when the proportion of fine-grained particles is 30%, especially the materials consist of heterogeneous granular. It means there have a critical mass parameter in experiments which lead to the high efficiency of granular effects, and the granular effect is weakening in homogeneous granular composition.
