Background: The outcome of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection after liver transplantation (LT) was improved by hepatitis B immunoglobulin (HBIG) and nucles(t)ide analogue (NUA). However, HBV recurrence after LT is critical because the recurrence is occasionally accompanied by a progressive destruction of graft and poor survival. The aims of this study were to investigate the significance HBV recurrence and identity factors associated with HBV recurrence. Methods: From October 1999 to February 2011, a total of 2684 consecutive LT recipients who underwent HBV-associated LT were retrospectively enrolled from 7 transplantation centers in Korea. Results: Prophylaxis regimens were HBIG monotherapy (67.7%) or a combination of HBIG with NUA (22.3%). The recurrence rate of HBV was 6.1% (164 recipients) during mean follow-up duration of 10.9 years. The median time from transplantation to recurrence was 2.1 years (0.1-7.9 years). Of the 1,071 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) prior to LT, 155 patients (14.5%) had HCC recurrence after transplantation, and 48 patients (31.0%) had HBV recurrence. Of the 48 patients with recurrence of both HBV and HCC, 25 patients (52.1%) experienced HBV recurrence after HCC recurrence. In the multivariate analysis, pretransplant HCC, pretransplant HBV DNA above 5.5 log copies/mL was independent clinical factors influencing HBV recurrence after LT. The mortality rate among the recipients with HBV recurrence was 34.1% (56 recipients). Mean overall survival was 6.4 years in the HBV-recurrence group and 9.9 years in the HBV-nonrecurrence group (p<0.001). HBV recurrence was not an independent prognostic factor for overall survival. HCC recurrence was the most important factor for overall survival. Conclusions: The overall outcome of LT in HBV-related liver disease was excellent with the current prophylaxis regimen Choon Hyuck David Kwon,8 Suk-Koo Lee8 Pretransplant HBV DNA and HCC were important factors for HBV recurrence. HBV recurrence after LT did not significantly influence on the overall survival without combining of HCC recurrence.

BEZ235 (PIK3/mTOR inhibitor) Overcomes Pazopanib Resistance in Patient-Derived Refractory Soft Tissue Sarcoma Cells

Kim, Hee Kyung,Kim, Sun Young,Lee, Su Jin,Kang, Mihyeon,Kim, Seung Tae,Jang, Jiryeon,Rath, Oliver,Schueler, Julia,Lee, Dong Woo,Park, Woong Yang,Kim, Sung Joo,Park, Se Hoon,Lee, Jeeyun Neoplasia Press 2016 Translational oncology Vol.9 No.3

<P><I>BACKGROUND:</I> Although pazopanib treatment has become the standard chemotherapy in salvage setting for metastatic sarcoma patients, most patients progress after pazopanib treatment in 4 to 6 months. After failure to pazopanib, patients have limited options for treatment. Therefore, subsequent therapy in patients who failed to pazopanib is urgently needed and the use of patient derived cells or patient derived tumors for accompanying testing with various pharmacological inhibitors could offer additional treatment options for these patients. <I>METHODS:</I> Patient derived tumor cells were collected from ascites at the time of progression to pazopanib and a 13-drug panel was tested for drug sensitivity. We confirmed the results using <I>in vitro</I> cell viability assay and immunoblot assay. We also performed the genomic profiling of PDX model. <I>RESULTS:</I> The growth of patient derived tumor cells was significantly reduced by exposure to 1.0 μM AZD2014 compared with control (control versus AZD2014, mean growth = 100.0% vs 16.04%, difference = 83.96%, 95% CI = 70.01% to 97.92%, <I>P</I> = .0435). Similarly, 1.0 μM BEZ235 profoundly inhibited tumor cell growth <I>in vitro</I> when compared to control (control versus BEZ235, mean growth = 100.0% vs 7.308%, difference = 92.69%, 95% CI = 78.87% to 106.5%, <I>P</I> < .0001). Despite the presence of CDK4 amplification in the patient-derived tumor cells, LEE011 did not considerably inhibit cell proliferation when compared with control (control vs LEE011, mean growth = 100.0% vs 80.23%, difference = 19.77%, 95% CI = 1.828% to 37.72%, <I>P</I> = .0377). The immunoblot analysis showed that BEZ235 treatment decreased pAKT, pmTOR and pERK whereas AZD2014 decreased only pmTOR. <I>CONCLUSION:</I> Taken together, upregulation of mTOR/AKT pathway in sarcoma patient derived cells was considerably inhibited by the treatment of AZD2014 and BEZ235 with downregulation of AKT pathway (greater extent for BEZ235). These molecules may be considered as treatment option in STS patient who have failed to pazopanib in the context of clinical trials.</P>

Objectives: Korean regression models for spirometric reference values are different from those of other ethnic groups. The purpose of this study was to evaluate discordance in spirometric interpretations based on using Korean reference equations versus non-Korean reference equations. Methods: Spirometry was performed on 825 Korean male workers from April 2009 to November 2011. The spirometric patterns and disease severity were evaluated using two Korean equations (Choi’s and Lee’s) and three equations for Caucasians (NHANES III, Morris’s, and Knudson’s), and the results of Choi’s equation were compared with the non-Korean equations. The spirometric patterns were defined as normal, restrictive, and mild and moderate obstructive. Results: The mean differences in the FEV1% and FVC% between the two Korean equations were 2.0 ± 1.3% and 3.5 ± 2.2%, respectively. Morris’s equation had the greatest difference in the FEV1% from Choi’s equation: 32.9 ± 8.5%. Knudson’s equation had the greatest difference in the FVC% from Choi’s equation: 10.5 ± 6.5%. Conclusions: The two Korean equations shared similar characteristics of spirometric interpretation. The spirometric interpretations of Choi’s equation were significantly different from those of Morris’s equation and Knudson’s equation.

Association between Socioeconomic Status and Altered Appearance Distress, Body Image, and Quality of Life Among Breast Cancer Patients

Chang, Oliver,Choi, Eun-Kyung,Kim, Im-Ryung,Nam, Seok-Jin,Lee, Jeong Eon,Lee, Se Kyung,Im, Young-Hyuck,Park, Yeon Hee,Cho, Juhee Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2014 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.15 No.20

Background: Breast cancer patients experience a variety of altered appearance - such as loss or disfigurement of breasts, discolored skin, and hair loss - which result in psychological distress that affect their quality of life. This study aims to evaluate the impact of socioeconomic status on the altered appearance distress, body image, and quality of life among Korean breast cancer patients. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted at advocacy events held at 16 different hospitals in Korea. Subjects were eligible to participate if they were 18 years of age or older, had a histologically confirmed diagnosis of breast cancer, had no evidence of recurrence or metastasis, and had no psychological problems at the time of the survey. Employment status, marital status, education, and income were assessed for patient socioeconomic status. Altered appearance distress was measured using the NCI's cancer treatment side effects scale; body image and quality of life were measured by the EORTC QLC-C30 and BR23. Means and standard deviations of each outcome were compared by socioeconomic status and multivariate linear regression models for evaluating the association between socioeconomic status and altered appearance distress, body image, and quality of life. Results: A total of 126 breast cancer patients participated in the study; the mean age of participants was 47.7 (SD=8.4). Of the total, 83.2% were married, 85.6% received more than high school education, 35.2% were employed, and 41% had more than $3000 in monthly household income. About 46% had mastectomy, and over 30% were receiving either chemotherapy or radiation therapy at the time of the survey. With fully adjusted models, the employed patients had significantly higher altered appearance distress (1.80 vs 1.48; p<0.05) and poorer body image (36.63 vs 51.69; p<0.05) compared to the patients who were unemployed. Higher education (10.58, standard error (SE)=7.63) and family income (12.88, SE=5.08) was positively associated with better body image after adjusting for age, disease stage at diagnosis, current treatment status, and breast surgery type. Similarly, patients who were married and who had higher education had better quality of life were statistically significant in the multivariate models. Conclusions: Socioeconomic status is significantly associated with altered appearance distress, body image, and quality of life in Korean women with breast cancer. Patients who suffer from altered appearance distress or lower body image are much more likely to experience psychosocial, physical, and functional problems than women who do not, therefore health care providers should be aware of the changes and distresses that these breast cancer patients go through and provide specific information and psychosocial support to socioeconomically more vulnerable patients.

이대희,조헌노,원세열,이영민 인제대학교 1999 仁濟論叢 Vol.14 No.3

본 연구에서는 변압기 냉각용 각-관(Shell and Tube) 열교환기의 성능을 실험적으로 테스트하여 열교환기의 냉각능력을 향상시키는 기술을 개발하고자 하였다. 예열수조 2개를 항온조와 함께 사용함으로써 열교환기 입구에서와 온수의 초기온도를 60℃로 유지하고, cooling tower를 이용하여 입구에서 냉각수 온도를 20℃로 유지하였다. 냉각수 유량변화(5ℓ/min, 10ℓ/min, 15ℓ/min)에 따른 baffle의 형태(Single-segmental baffle, Double-segmental baffle, Disk & Doughnut baffle, Helical baffle)와 baffle의 개수(7개에서 5개) 및 tube의 개수(26개에서 18개)를 변화시켰을 때 열교환기의 냉각능력을 각각 실험하였다. 온수와 냉각수의 입ㆍ출구에서의 온도변화를 측정하기 위하여 Thermocouple을 온수와 냉각수 관의 입ㆍ출구에 하나씩 설치하였다. 실험결과 Disk & Doughnut, Helical baffle, Double-segmental baffle의 열전달률이 Single-segmental baffle보다 5.3%, 5.5%, 11.8% 높고, Double-segmental baffle의 경우 Tube 수의 감소율이 35%일 때 열전달률의 감소율은 14.3%임을 알 수 있었고, baffle의 수가 5개에서 7개로 증가했을 때 열전달률이 12.1% 증가함을 알았다. An experimental study to enhance the cooling capacity of the shell and tube type heat exchanger has been carried out. The initial temperature of hot water in the heat exchanger is maintained at 60℃, using two preheating water baths and one constant temperature water bath, while the coolant temperature is maintained at 20℃ by way of the cooling tower. For the coolant rates of 5 ℓ/min, 10 ℓ/min, 15 ℓ/min, the experiments to determine the heat exchanger cooling capacity have been performed using the various types of baffle(Single- segmental baffle, Double-segmental baffle, Disk & Doughnut baffle, Helical baffle), the number of baffles(from 7 to 5) and number of tubes(from 26 to 18). Thermocouples are installed in the inlet and outlet of hot-water and coolant tube to measure the temperature difference. It was found that the heat transfer rates for Disk & Doughnut baffle, Helical baffle, Double-segmental baffle are 5.3%, 5.5%, 11.8% higher than the Single-segmental baffle, respectively. When the number of tube is reduce by 35%, the 14.3% decrease in the heat transfer rate occurs, while when the number of baffle increases from 5 to 7, the 12% increase in the heat transfer rate occurs.

이명호,이재철,이승우,서장일,박세희 강원대학교 부설 석재복합신소재 제품연구센터 2004 석재연 논문집 Vol.9 No.-

폴리머 콘크리트 복합체를 이용하여 악천후에도 시인성이 좋고 주위의 경관과 어울리는 자동점멸 표지병을 개발하였다. 아날로그 회로에 비해 설계상의 난해한 점이 있으나 상대적으로 간편한 디지털 회로를 사용하여 자동점멸 회로를 구성하였으며, 작업의 능률을 높이고 개발비를 줄이기 위하여 OrCAD를 사용한 Simulation을 실시후 회로를 구성하였다. 표지병의 시공시와 같은 환경에서의 실험에서는 디지털회로의 작은 전류와 표지병간의 거리, 전선의 저항으로 인하여 클럭 및 클리어 신호에 전압강하와 상승/하강 시간의 증가가 나타났다. 표지병은 전자회로와 함께 설치되어야 하므로 방수성을 고려하여 표지병과 전자회로를 일체형으로 설계하였다. 실제 시공시의 환경에서 시행한 실험에서 나타난 문제점을 검토하였으며, 향후 연구방향에 관하여 고찰하였다. Using polymer concrete composite, the automatic-on/off road marker that is well distinguished in a bad weather condition of rainy or foggy day and is well harmonized with. Digital circuit that is hard to design but simpler than an analog circuit is used in designing the automatic-on/off circuit, and it order to raise the working efficiency and lower the development cost, OrCAD, a simulation tool of electric circuit, was used in simulating the circuit. In an experiment conducted under the circumstance of practical application, voltage drop and raising/lowering time increment in the clock and the clear signals are occurred because of small current of digital circuit and resistance of electrical line. Because that the road marker is assembled with the digital circuit, it is designed as one assembled unit by considering water proof. Some problems occurred in the experiment and the future work are discussed.

유·초등학생 장애이해 교육

이유훈,권택환,김희규,유장순,최세민 국립특수교육원 2003 연구보고서 Vol.- No.1

특수교육이 장애학생을 포함한 모든 학생의 특성과 요구에 부응하는 통합교육으로 발전하기 위해서는 무엇보다도 장애인에 대한 편견과 차별이 없어야 한다. 장애인에 대한 편견과 부정적인 태도는 결국 장애인의 사회통합에 부정적인 영향을 미치기 때문에 우선적으로 해결해야 할 과제라고 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 「유ㆍ초등학생 장애이해 교육」자료를 개발ㆍ보급하여 장애인에 대한 편견과 차별을 해소하는데 그 목적을 두고, 전문가 협의회, 관련 문헌 탐색, 기존 장애이해 교육 자료 분석, 현장교사 설문 및 심층면담 등을 실시하였고, 이를 통해 얻은 연구 결과를 요약 정리하면 다음과 같다 첫째, 우리의 학교현장에서는 장애이해 교육 시간확보가 어려운 실정이다. 이런 현상은 교육경력이 낮은 교사일수록 또는 학교경영자와 일반교사의 이해가 부족할수록 더욱 심각하게 나타나는데, 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서는 국립특수교육원이나 시ㆍ도교육청에서 장애 이해 교육에 따른 시간확보 방안을 제공할 필요가 있다. 장애이해 교육의 필요성에 대한 학교경영자 및 일반교사의 인식 부족을 해결하기 위해서는 학교경영자와 일반교사가 특수교육과 장애인에 대한 이해를 넓힐 수 있도록 하는 다양한 연수프로그램이 마련되어야 한다. 둘째, 장애이해 교육에 활용할 수 있는 자료의 양이 부족할 뿐 아니라, 기존에 개발된 자료를 활용할 수 있는 체계적인 방안이 마련되어 있지 많다는 점이다. 따라서 장애이해 교육에 활용할 수 있는 다양한 자료가 개발되어야 하고, 기존에 개발된 자료는 쉽게 활용될 수 있도록 종류별로 정리되어야 하고, 활용할 수 있는 구체적인 방법도 제시할 필요가 있다. 셋째, 장애이해 교육이 학기초나 '장애인의 날'과 같은 특정기간에 편중되어 있다는 점이다. 장애인식 개선을 위한 교육은 년 중 계획을 세워 일정기간 단위로 실시하여야 한다. 넷째, 장애이해 교육에 활용되는 모델이나 이해교육 방법이 주로 감각장애(시각장애ㆍ청각장애) 또는 지체부자유학생을 중심으로 되어 있다는 점이다. 교육현장에서는 발달장애학생도 많기 때문에 발달장애학생을 모델로 하는 장애이해 교육 프로그램이나 교수-학습방법도 지속적으로 개발되어야 한다. 다섯째, 장애이해 교육방법이 다양하지 못하다는 점이다. 장애이해 교육이 효율적으로 이루어지기 위해서는 장애인의 다양한 특성이 고려되어야 한다. 그러기 위해서는 교수활동 방법 또한 이들의 특성을 고려하여 보다 다양하게 이루어져야 할 것이다. 위에서 제시한 장애이해 교육 실태를 토대로 본 연구보고서에서는 현장교사들이 쉽게 활용할 수 있도록 하기 위해서 1부, 2부로 나누어「유ㆍ초등학생 장애이해 교육자료」를 안내하였다. 제 1부 「장애이해 교육의 개관」에서는 장애이해 교육자료 개발의 필요성, 목적, 연구방법 및 절차, 장애이해 관련 제이론, 장애이해 교육의 현황 및 문제점, 개선방안 등을 기술하여 학교현장의 교사들이 장애이해 교육에 대해 보다 폭 법은 이해를 도모하도록 하였다. 제 2부 「장애이해 프로그램 및 교육자료」에서는 장애유형별 즉, 시각장애, 청각장애, 정신지체, 정서장애, 자폐성장애, 학습장애, 지체부자유 등으로 나누어 제시하여 교사들이 장애 이해 지도를 보다 쉽게 접근할 수 있도록 하였고, 아울러 기존에 개발된 장애이해 교육자료를 도서, 방송프로그램, 영화, 인터넷 웹사이트 등으로 분류 제시하여 학교현장에서 학생의 수준과 활동 내용에 따라서 다양하게 활용할 수 있도록 하였다. 본 프로그램은 「유ㆍ초등학생 장애이해 교육자료」의 한 예에 불과하다. 학교 현장의 지도 교사는 프로그램의 수준을 상향 또는 하향 조정하여 지도할 수 있으며, 생활 주변의 다양한 소재로 프로그램의 내용을 수정 또는 대체할 수 있다. 나아가 창의적으로 새로운 상황을 전개할 수 있도록 하는 노력도 필요하겠다. 2004년에는 「중ㆍ고등학생 장애이해 교육자료」가 개발되어 학교현장에 보급될 계획이다. In order for special education to develop into an inclusive education system that meets the characteristics and needs of all children, including those who are disabled, there must be no prejudices and discriminations against children who are physically or mentally challenged. As the biases and negative attitudes toward persons with disabilities could eventually exert negative influences on their integration into society, these tasks must be effectively taken care of above all else. This study, with the aim of dissolving prejudice and discrimination against the persons with disabilities by developing and disseminating materials for the "Education for Non-disabled Preschoolers and Elementary School Children to Understand Disabilities", has had consultations with experts, researched related books and other documents, analyzed the existing educational materials for understanding individuals with disabilities and conducted surveys on and interviews with teachers in the field of education. The results of the study are summarized as follows. First, the fact remains that it is difficult to secure time to educate on how to understand the children with disabilities at the nation's schools. Such a phenomenon occurs more seriously among teachers with less educational experiences as well as school managers and general education teachers without adequate understanding of the children with disabilities. To resolve this problem, either the Korea Institute for Special Education or the municipal and provincial educational agencies need to provide ideas to secure time to educate the understanding of those who are challenged. In order to solve the lack of understanding of the children with disabilities among school managers and general education teachers, various programs must be created and implemented to train the school administrators and regular teachers to expand their understanding of the persons with disabilities. Second, not only is the amount of materials available for the education of the children with disabilities insufficient, but moreover there are no systematic measures to make the most of those materials that are already developed. Therefore, diverse resources must be developed to use for educating the understanding disabilities, and already developed materials must be classified into categories for easy use along with concrete methods for utilizing such resources. Third, education for understanding the children with disabilities is concentrated on specific periods, such as the early semester or the "Day for the Persons with Disabilities". Education to improve the perception of disabilities should be conducted in periods under an annual program. Fourth, the models or methods used to educate for understanding the persons with disabilities are centered mainly on the individuals with sensory injured (with visual or hearing impairments) or the persons with physically disabled. At educational sites, there are many children with developmentally disabled and so educational programs and teaching-learning methods to educate the understanding of the children with disabilities should be modeled after the children with developmentally challenged. Fifth, the methods to educate the understanding of the persons with disabilities are not diverse. For the efficient education of the understanding disabilities, the diverse characteristics of the persons with disabilities should be taken into account. To be successful in this matter, more diverse methods of teaching activities also need to be used by considering the characteristics of the people with disabilities. On the basis of the reality of developing an understanding and proper awareness of those who are disabled as presented above, this study report guides the "Education for non-disabled preschoolers and elementary school children to understand disabilities" in Part 1 and Part 2 for easy use by teachers on active duty. In Part 1, titled as "A General Survey of Educating the Understanding of the Children with Disabilities", I have described the necessity and purpose of educating the understanding of the children with disabilities, its study methods and procedures, various theories on educating the understanding of the children with disabilities, the current situations and problems of educating the understanding of the children with disabilities and their improvement measures to deepen the understanding about educating the understanding disabilities by teachers on active duty. In Part 2, titled the "Programs to Educate the Understanding Disabilities and Educational Materials," I have classified types of disabilities into visual impairment, hearing impairment, mental retardation, emotional disorder, autism, learning disability and the physical impairment for easy approach to educate the understanding disabilities by teachers. At the same time, I re-categorized the already developed materials to educate the understanding disabilities into books, broadcasting programs, movies, Internet web-sites and others for diverse use at schools according to the children' levels and activities. This program is just one example of the "Education for Non-disabled Preschoolers and Elementary School Children to Understand Disabilities". I have arranged it in such a way as to allow teachers to teach the children by upgrading or downgrading the program's level as well as modifying or replacing the contents of this program by using various materials that can be obtained in everyday lives. In 2004, I am planning to develop and distribute the "Education for non-disabled Middle-and High-school Students to Understand Disabilities".
