In the automobile industry, the service life of gaskets is defined as the time until which a released gasket recovers 60 % of the original compression. It was observed that the recovery curves of gaskets were highly nonlinear at high temperatures, and relatively nonlinear at temperatures above the room temperature. However, it was also noted that the recovery curves of the gaskets at temperatures below room temperature exhibited linearity with respect to the ln(time). Automotive manufacturers demand gasket life criteria that exceed a specific time or the entire life of a car. In the case of gaskets used at lower temperatures, since materials encounter losses in its flexibility and conformability, the definition of service life specifying a 60 % recovery may not be sufficiently safe to eliminate possible leakages. In this study, new gasket life criteria that could be used at low temperatures were proposed. The new criteria were proposed based on the change in Young’s modulus of the gasket material in order to conserve the sealing capability.

Objectives : Assuming that somatization closely interacts with anxiety symptoms, one might speculate that anxiety symptoms will produce the significant differences in development, course and treatment of somatization and the cause of these differences will be elucidated in the cognitive aspect. This study was performed to examine the cognitive characteristics in terms of the somatosensory amplification and the symptom interaction in patients with somatization accompanied by anxiety symptoms. Methods : The following measures were administered to subjects who had a T-score of >60 on somatization subscale of Symptom Checklist-90-Revision (SCL-90-R) : 1) Minnessota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-Korean Version (MMPI-K), 2) Somato-sensory Amplification Scale (SSAS), 3) Symptom Interpretation Questionnaire (SIQ). There was a comparison of differences in the somatosensory amplification and the symptom interpretation between the anxiety group and the non-anxiety group divided by T-score of >60 on the psychasthenia subscale of MMSE-K. Multiple regression analysis was performed to determine the effect of the differences in the somatosensory amplification and the symptom interpretation on age, sex, marital status and level of education between those two groups. Results : There was a greater amplification of sensation in the anxiety group than the non-anxiety group. The former showed a higher level of physical, psychological and catastrophic interpretation than non-anxiety group except with regard to environ-mental interpretation. Somatization was affected by somatosensory amplification and physical interpretation in both groups, as well as psychological interpretation in the anxiety group. Conelusion : Regarding the cognitive aspect, the somatosensory amplification and symptom interpretation were more severely distorted in patients accompanied by anxiety symptoms. These results suggest that a therapeutic approach based on the cognitive charactehstics is essential for the effective management of somatizer.

Objectives : As the elderly population is continuing to increase, psychiatric diseases of the elderly are becoming an important social issue. This study looks into the demographical and clinical features of the elderly patients diagnosed with bipolar disorder in a University hospital. Methods : The study subjects include patients admissioned in the closed wards of Soonchunhyang Seoul hospital and Cheonan hospital from March, 2000 to February, 2005 who met the DSM-IV-TR criteria for bipolar disorder at the time of discharge. A total of 146 patients (76 men, 70 women) medical records were studied retrospectively. Subjects older than the age of 50 at time of admission were grouped as the old age group, whereas those who were younger than 50 as the young age group. Also among the old age group, those who had the first onset of episode under the age of 50 were grouped as the early onset group, whereas those who had the first onset after the age 50 were grouped as the late onset group. Results : The number of bipolar disorder patients in the young age group and old age group were 73 and 73 respectively. The number of early onset group and late onset group were 46 and 23 respectively. The old age group had a relatively higher incidence of bipolar II disorder than the young age group. Also in the old age group there was a higher incidence of hypomanic or depressive episode rather than manic episode compared to the young age group. And in the old age group psychotic symptoms were less common and the mean admission length shorter than the young age group. Additionally in the old age group treatment with Lithium monotherapy or with no mood stabilizers at all were relatively common. Among the old age group, late onset group had a higher rate of bipolar II disorder than the early onset group. Conclusion : This study shows differences in the demographical and clinical features among different age groups. But additional research would be required to determine whether the bipolar disorders in the elderly or late onset group are actually a different type of disorder from those of the young.

The purpose of this study was analyze children's Physical Fitness and basic rate by observing the change in the heart rate of the 1230 children of five of six years of age. Following conclusions were obtained The muscular strength was relatively low according to places. And the muscular strength of boys was higher than that of girls. The flexibility of girls was higher than that of boys according to places and sexes. The muscular endurance, power, balance and agility of boys were higher than those of girls according to places and sexes. Thus the development of physical fitness was improved with their ages, the physical fitness for physique seemed rather low. So the programs of physical plays for children's physical fitness ought to be developed and physical play showed to be done at kindergarten school.

Eledctrophysiological phenomena of pyramidal cells in the CAI area of the dorsal hippocampus were recorded from and filled with neurobiotin in anesthetized rats. The electropharmacological properties of membrane as well as the cellular-synaptic generation of rhythmic slow activity (theta)were examined. The intracellular response characteristics of these pyramidal cells were distinctly different from responses of inteneurons. Pyramidal cells had a high resting membrane potential, a low input resistance, and a large amplitude action potential. A afterhyperpolarization was followed a single action potential. Most of pyramidal cells did not display a spontaneous firing. Pyramidal cells displayed weak inward rectification and anodal break excitation. The slope of the frequency-current relation was 53.4 Hz/nA for the first interspike interval and 15.9 Hz/nA for the last intervals, suggesting the presence of spike frequency adaptation. Neurobiotin-filled neurons showed pyramidal morphology. Cells were generally bipolar dendritc processes ramifying in stratum lacunosum-moleculare, radiatum, and oriens. Commissural stimulation discharged pyramidal cells, followed by excitatory and inhibitory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs and IPSPs). The frequency of theat-related membrane potential oscillation was voltage-independent in pyramidal neurons. At strong depolarization levels (less than 30 mV) pyramidal cells emitted sodium spike oscillation, phase-locked to theta. The observations provide direct evidence that theta-related rhythmic hyperpolarization of principal cells is brought by the rhythmically discharging interneurons. Furthermore, the findings in which interneurons were also paced by rhythmic inhibitory postsynaptic potentials during theta suggest that they were periodically hyperpolarized by their GABAergic septal afferents.

Background: Recently there has been evidences that serum Lp(a), an independent risk factor to atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases, were increased in proteinuric disorders such as nephrotic syndrome and diabetic nephropathy. Methods: We intended to search of altered concentrations of Lp(a) in proteinuric disorder measuring serum Lp(a) concentrations with ELISA in 44 glomerulonephritic patients(25 nephrotic syndrome(NS), 19 non-nephrotic range proteinuric glomerulonephritis(GN), 25 diabetic nephropathy patients(DN), and 31 healthy controls(HC). Also, we compared Lp(a) concentration between glomerulonephritis patients and diabetic nephropathy patients with proteinuria of similar degree. Results: 1) There were significantly increased levels of total choesterol, triglyceride, and LDL-cholesterol in Ns compared to GN, DN, HC. 2) There were significantly increased concentrations of serum Lp(a) in NS compared to HC, but no signiicant difference in serum Lp(a) among NS, GN, and DN. 3) There was no significant difference in serum Lp(a) concentrations between NS & DN with 24 hour urine protein greater than 3.0g. 4) There was no significant difference in serum Lp(a) concentration between GN with 24 hour urine protein greater than 0.5g and less than 1.5g and DN with proteinuria of simial degree. 5) In glomerulonephritis patients, there was negative correlation between serum Lp(a) concentration and serum albumin level but correlation with 24 hour urinary protein, total cholesterol, Ldl-cholesterol, and HDL-cholesterol was not shown. In diabetic nephropathy, there was no significant correlation among serum Lp(a) concentration and all parameters including serum albumin, 24 hour urinary protein, and other lipid profiles. Conclusion: The present study confirmed that patients with nephrotic syndrome of diverse etiologies have makedly increased plasma level of Lp(a), in conjunction with other lipid abnormalities. However, this study shows no difference in Lp(a) concentrations between diabetic nephropathy and glomerulonephritis with similar degree of proteinuria.
