<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>We have developed the Integrated Climate and Air Quality Modeling System (ICAMS) through the one-way nesting of global–regional models to examine the changes in the surface ozone concentrations over East Asia under future climate scenarios. Model simulations have been conducted for the present period of 1996–2005 to evaluate the performance of ICAMS. The simulated surface ozone concentrations reproduced the observed monthly mean concentrations at sites in East Asia with high R<SUP>2</SUP> values (0.4–0.9), indicating a successful simulation to capture both spatial and temporal variability. We then performed several model simulations with the six IPCC SRES scenarios (A2, A1B, A1FI, A1T, B1, and B2) for the next three periods, 2016–2025 (the 2020s), 2046–2055 (the 2050s), and 2091–2100 (the 2090s). The model results show that the projected changes of the annual daily mean maximum eight-hour (DM8H) surface ozone concentrations in summertime for East Asia are in the range of 2–8 ppb, −3 to 8 ppb, and −7 to 9 ppb for the 2020s, the 2050s, and the 2090s, respectively, and are primarily determined based on the emission changes of NO<SUB>x</SUB> and NMVOC. The maximum increases in the annual DM8H surface ozone and high-ozone events occur in the 2020s for all scenarios except for A2, implying that the air quality over East Asia is likely to get worse in the near future period (the 2020s) than in the far future periods (the 2050s and the 2090s). The changes in the future environment based on IPCC SRES scenarios would also influence the change in the occurrences of high-concentrations events more greatly than that of the annual DM8H surface ozone concentrations. Sensitivity simulations show that the emissions increase is the key factor in determining future regional surface ozone concentrations in the case of a developing country, China, whereas a developed country, Japan would be influenced more greatly by effects of the regional climate change than the increase in emissions.</P> <P><B>Highlights</B></P> <P> <UL> <LI> Change in ozone level is determined by the combination of NO<SUB>x</SUB> and NMVOC emissions. </LI> <LI> Ozone level over East Asia would get worse in the near future (the 2020s) than far future. </LI> <LI> A high-concentration event generally increases and more frequently occurs in the future. </LI> <LI> Change in ozone air quality in a developing country depends more on emissions change. </LI> <LI> Change in ozone air quality in a developed country depends more on climate change. </LI> </UL> </P>

Effect of metal coating in all-fiber acousto-optic tunable filter using torsional wave.

Song, Du-Ri,Jun, Chang Su,Do Lim, Sun,Kim, Byoung Yoon Optical Society of America 2014 Optics express Vol.22 No.25

<P>Torsional mode acousto-optic tunable filter (AOTF) is demonstrated using a metal-coated birefringent optical fiber for an improved robustness. The changes in acoustic and optical properties of a metal-coated birefringent optical fiber induced by the thin metal coating were analyzed experimentally and theoretically. The filter wavelength shift is successfully explained as a result of combined effect of acoustic wavelength change and optical birefringence change. We also demonstrated a small form-factor configuration by coiling the fiber with 6 cm diameter without performance degradation. The center wavelength of the filter can be tuned >35 nm by changing the applied frequency, and the coupling efficiency is higher than 92% with <5 nm 3-dB bandwidth.</P>

Lentigo maligna(LM) is a pigmented lesion that occurs on the sun-exposed skin of an older patients and may become lentigo maligna melanoma(LMM). Currently the percentage of LM type melanoma appears to be increasing, and this rise has been attributed to increasing UV radiation exposure. In addition to UV radiation, estrogen and progesterone, and nonpermanent hair dyes have been proposed as risk factors. A case is a 66-year-old female with a 3 years history of pigmented patch. She had a gradually enlarging irregular bordered brown to black mottled patch on the right temple area. Histologic examination revealed atypical melanocytes along the basal layer of atrophic epidermis, arranged in solitary units and small nests. Perilesional skin showed many scattered melanophages and regressing nevus cell nests which suggested preexisting nevus underwent regressive change. On the basis of clinicopathologic examination we diagnosed this case as lenigo maligna arising from nevocytic nevus and then we removed the lesion by wide surgical excision and could not find any recurrence until now.

N/A Background/Aitns: It has been reported frequently that clinical features of gallstone diseases in Koreans were different from those of Occidentals. These differences were thought to be due to inherent racial difference and acquired living habits. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether the pattern of gallstone disease changes or not in Korea. Methods: We analyzed 5,488 cases of gallstone diseases which were reported in Korea frorn 1966 to 1994. We divided the period into 6 groups: the first period was 1,000 cases reported from 1966 to 1970, the second was 331 cases from 1971 to 1975, the third was 1,000 cases from 1976 to 1980, the fourth was 1,957 cases from 1981 to 1985, the fifth was 1,000 cases from 1986 to 1990, and the sixth was 200 cases from 1991 to 1993. Results: The age group of highest incidence was the fifth and sixth decade. The incidence below the third decade showed a decreasing tendency. In contrast, the incidence above sixth decade showed an increasing tendency. The male to female ratio was 1:1.25 to 1:1.71 and had no periological change. The duration of illness of highest frequency was below 6 months. In the case of duration above 5 years these was a decreasing tendency. The major complaints of biliary stone were right upper quadrant pain and tenderness. Nausea, vomiting, jaundice, and radiating pain showed a decreasing tendency. The major laboratory findings were leukocytosis, elevated SGOT and SGPT, elevated alkaline phosphatase, hyperbilirubinemia and hypoalbuminemia. Of these, only hypoalbuminernia had a decreasing tendency. By the second period, the main diagnostic procedures were oral cholecystogram and intravenous cholecysto- graphy. From the fourth period, ultrasonography, ERCP, CT and PTC were been used comrnonly. For the location of gallstone, the gallbladder stone revealed the only increasing tendency, the common bile duct stone had a decreasing tendency, and the intrahepatic duct stone had no periological change. From 1980, the cholesterol stone became the main composition of gallstones. But, there was no periological change between early and late 1980s. Positive bacterial culture rate was 57.0% and the most common microorganism was E. coli. Klebsiella and Enterobacter. Pseudomonas showed an increasing tendency. Of the diseases associated with gallstone, only diabetes had an increasing tendency. The frequency of residual stone had an increasing tendency. Conclusions: The age of peak incidence of gallstone diseases was the fifth and sixth decades and there was a little predominance in females. From 1980, the cholesterol stone becarne the main composition of gallstones. For the location of gallstone, the gallbladder stone showed an increasing tendency and the common bile duct stone revealed a decreasing tendency. These suggested clinical features of gallstone diseases in Koreans are somewhat similar to those of Occidentals. (Korean J Gastroenterol 1997;29:352 - 361)

Objectives : This study was conducted to evaluate the reliability and the validity of the Korean version of the Scale to Assessment Unawareness of Mental Disorder (SUMD-K). Methods : The subjects were 55 schizophrenic patients between ages of 26 and 58 who were recruited from the psychiatric unit of the university hospital and the out-patient clinic. The SUMD-K and insight scale of PANSS were applied to the patients. Results : The range of inter-rater (Spearman's rho) of the general items of SUMD-K were .97-.98 on the current illness and .58-.98 on the past illness. The correlation coefficient between the sum and the general items of the SUMD-K showed high scores. The concurrent validity between SUMD-K and insight item of PANSS was high (scores between .59-.96). However,the reliability and the validity of the attribution items of symptoms showed low scores compared to the current symptoms. Conclusion : The SUMD-K was confirmed in its reliability and validity. It can be a useful clinician-rating scale for evaluating insight in schizophrenic patients as well as patients with other neuropsychiatric conditions.

목 적 : 장티푸스는 체액의 세균배양검사에서 Salmonella typhi의 분리로 확진하지만 조기진단을 위해서는 혈청학적인 검사가 도움이 된다. 저자 등은 1989년 이후 장티푸스진단에 S. typhi의 Vi항원을 이용한 간접형광항체법 (Vi-indirect fluorescent antibody test : Vi-IFAT)을 도입하였다. 이에 지난 7년간의 검사결과를 토대로 Vi-IFAT의 민감도 및 특이도를 규명하고자 하였다. 방 법 : 1989년부터 1996년까지 연세대학교 의과대학 세브란스 병원에 발열을 주소로 내원하여 Vi-IFAT가 의뢰된 환자 중 발열의 원인이 확진된 744명의 환자를 대상으로 하였으며, Vi-IFAT에 있어서 양성반응은 1:64이상으로 하였다. 결 과 : 1) 세균배양검사에서 확진된 장티푸스 환자 178예 중 168예에서 양성반응을 보여 민감도는 94.4%이었다. 항체가는 1:64가 89예, 1:128이 36예, 1:256이 27예, 그리고 1:512가 16예이었다. 위음성이었던 10예의 항체가는 1:32가 7예, 1:16이하가 3예이었다. 2) 발열을 주소로 내원한 환자 중 장티푸스 이외의 다른 질환으로 확진된 566예 중 538예에서 음성반응을 보여 특이도는 95.1%이었다. 항체가는 1:32가 117예, 1:16이하가 421예이었다. 위양성이었던 28예의 항체가는 1:64가 23예, 1:128이 5예이었으며, 장티푸스 이외의 살모넬라증이 4예, 요로계감염이 10예, 소화기계감염이 6예, 호흡기 계감염이 5예, 악성 종양이 2예, 그리고 바이러스 감염이 1예이었다. 3) Vi-IFAT 양성인 196예 중에서 장티푸스는 168예로 양성예측율은 85.7%이었으며, Vi-IFAT 음성인 548예 중 장티푸스 이외의 발열질환은 538예로 음성예측율 98.2%이었다. 4) 배양검사와 Widal test 사이의 일치율 (Kappa value)는 0.28로 poor agreement를 보였으며 Vi-IFAT와 Widal test 사이의 Kappa value는 0.74로 good agreement를 보였다. 그러나 배양검사와 Vi-IFAT 사이의 Kappa value는 0.86으로 excellent agreement를 보여 일치율이 가장 높은 검사는 배양검사와 Vi-IFAT라 할 수 있겠다. 5) 장티푸스 환자에 있어서 Vi-IFAT의 양성율은 발열기간이 1중 미만인 환자에서는 68%, 1내지 2주인 환자에서는 89.5%, 2주이상인 환자에서는 100%이었다. 결 론 : Vi 항원을 이용한 간접형광항체법 (Vi-IFAT)은 장티푸스 진단에 높은 민감도 및 특이도를 가지며, 또한 조기진단에 있어서도 임상적으로 유용함을 확인할 수 있었다. Background : Typhoid fever is diagnosed by culture or serological study. The confirmative diagnosis of typhoid fever is made by culture of the causative organism usually from body fluids. Serological test is a supportive diagnositic tool, which is useful for early diagnosis. In Severance Hospital, Vi-indirect foluorescent antibidy test(Vi-IFAT) using the Vi-antigen of Salmonella typhi has been used in the diagnosis of typhoid fever since 1989. We investigated the test results from the past 7 years, in order to clarify the sensitivity and specificity of Vi-IFAT. Methods : A retrospective study was done on patients whose chief complaint was fever and who were tested using Vi-IFAT in the Severance Hospital from 1989 to 1996. The positive value for Vi-IFAT was defined as 1:64 or higher. Results : The sensitivity and specificity of Vi-IFAT for typhoid fever was 94.4% and 95.1%, respectively. The positive and negative predictive values were 85.7% and 98.2% respectively. Positive rates of Vi-IFAT after fever onset increased with time and 68% were positive before the first week. From the first to the second week, 89.5% were positive and after the second week, 100% were positive. Conclusion : Vi-IFAT is not only a valuable serologic test for the diagnosis of typhoid fever, but also useful in the early diagnosis of the disease.

도축돈 장분변으로부터 Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli의 분리와 성상

송영환,김지영,채미경,박창식,김명철,전무형 충남대학교 형질전환복제돼지연구센터 2007 논문집 Vol. No.10

Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) causes various clinical signs in human and animals, and has been indicated as a global enteropathogen with zoonotic importance. In this study, the feces of healthy pigs were collected from the slaughtered pigs of Daejon abattoir during the period from December 2001 to October 2002. Of 326 specimens, 13 STEC were confirmed by culture, PCR and colony hybridization. The isolates were further studied for toxin types, pathogenic factors, plasmid profiles, and antimicrobial resistance to characterize the genetic and toxigenic properties. In PCR, all of 13 isolates were evident to have shiga toxin gene (stx). Of 13 isolates stx1 gene was detected in 4 and stx2 gene in 9. The genes of eaeA, hlyA and rfbE were not present in any isolates. In colony hybridization using shiga toxin common primer (STXc), 2 to 9 per 100 colonies subcultured from 13 isolates showed the positive reaction. In the examination for plasmid profiles of the isolates, one to eleven plasmids with varying sizes of 1.0 Kb to 100 Kb were detected, and the 13 STEC could be classified into four groups by the plasmid patterns. The antimicrobial resistance patterns of the isolates were comparably corresponded with the plasmid profile patterns.
