The first Cybathlon will be held in October 2016 and this contest is designed for developing prosthetic technologies. In this study, we analyzed the Cybathlon and from this analysis we researched advanced prosthetic technologies. In addition, we ascertained some ethical issues about post-human beings with prosthetic equipment, which could rehabilitate disabled people and even serve to enhance non-disabled people. Disability is only one of the inconveniences that a person must endure, but everyone has some sort of inconvenience to endure. We found the possibilities of dissolving boundaries between people with disabilities and their able-bodied counterparts through the Cybathlon and prosthetic devices. The features and role of our body itself will be expanded with the help of these future technologies. Engineers, inventors and designers are making better prostheses for disabilities, but these could help not only disabled people but also every non-disabled people. The dominant ethical debates that appear in bioethics and human- related enhancement are reliability, authenticity and autonomy. Reliability and autonomy are the question of being safe and controllable. In this study, we want to raise a question on authenticity: ‘if a person with a powered-prosthesis sets a better record, should we admit it?’

국내 무단횡단 사고 발생건수는 2014년 4,093건에서 2016년 5,761건으로 계속 증가하고 있다. 이러한 추세는 무단횡단이 또 하나의 사회문제로 떠오르고 있음을 의미한다. 이 연구에서는 이러한 무단횡단 사고가 자주 발생하는 장소를 찾고 그 특징을 분석하여 무단횡단 사고를 예방하기 위한 방안을 제시하고자 한다. 이를 위해 도로교통공단의 TAAS교통사고정보 개방시스템에서 제공한 서울시 보행자 무단횡단사고 데이터를 QGIS의 포인트 매핑(Point Mapping) 및 커널밀도 추정법(Kernel Density Estimation)으로 무단횡단 핫스팟 분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과, 핫스팟 지역으로 선정된 곳은 종로구, 영등포구, 구로구, 중구의 일부 지점으로서 높은 밀도의 핫스팟 그리드를 가지고 있었으며 그 지역을 중심으로 무단횡단 핫스팟 군집을 형성하고 있었다. 이 지점들은 대개 지하철역과 버스정류장과 같이 교통량이 많고 인구이동률이 높은 장소에 분포하고 있었으며 재래시장과 같은 상업시설이 분포해 있었다. 또한 핫스팟으로 선정된 지역에서는 중앙선 및 도보 펜스가 부재하거나 파손된 경우가 많았다. 이 연구는 이러한 무단횡단 핫스팟 분석을 바탕으로 상황적 범죄예방(Situational Crime Prevention) 전략을 통해 무단횡단 발생을 예방하는 방법을 탐색하였다. Domestic jaywalking accidents are continuously increasing from 4,093 cases in 2014 to 5,761 cases in 2016. This trend implies that the jaywalking is emerging as another social problem. In this study, we propose a method to prevent a jaywalking accident by searching for a place where such jaywalking accident happens frequently and analyzing its characteristics. For this purpose, jaywalking hotspot analysis was carried out using the point mapping and kernel density estimation methods through the QGIS using pedestrian jaywalking incident data provided by TAAS traffic accident information opening system of Road Traffic Corporation. As a result of the research, the hotspot areas in Jongno-gu, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Guro-gu, and Jung-gu have high density hotspot grid and they formed an jaywalking hotspot cluster around the area. These areas were mostly located in high traffic areas such as subway stations and bus stops, and high population moving places and commercial facilities such as traditional markets were distributed. Also, in the areas selected as hotspots, the center line and the walking fence were often absent or damaged. Based on the analysis of the jaywalking hotspots, situational crime prevention strategies were sought to prevent the occurrence of jaywalking.

Until recently, colorectal polyps were classified predominantly as hyperplastic or adenomatous. While adenomatous polyps are well-characterized precursor lesions of adenocarcinomas, hyperplastic polyps have been considered as benign lesion. However, some hyperplastic polyps with serrated morphology of the crypts have been recognized to have distinctive features and these polyps were termed ‘serrated adenomas’. Recent data show that sessile serrated adenomas (SSA) might be the precursors of serrated colonic cancers, underlining the necessity of identifying them. SSA is approximately 3% of all polyps, commonly appears as flat or sessile and yellowish due to mucus production. In the pathogenesis of SSA, progression to high grade dysplasia or early invasive carcinoma may be associated with serrated neoplasia pathway different from adenoma-carcinoma sequence. We report a case with a colon polyp diagnosed as sessile serrated adenoma with high grade dysplasia after endoscopic submucosal dissection.

Objectives:This study was to identify weight & metabolic changes in first-episode psychotic patients with antipsychotics use and investigate the differences of weight & metabolic changes between first-episode psychotic patients and controls with antipsychotics use. Method:In this retrospective study, twenty eight first-episode psychotic patients and twenty eight controls with schizophrenia, schizoaffective or bipolar disorder defined by DSM-IV criteria were included. Information about demographic and clinical characteristics of the subjects was gathered from the medical records. Also body weight, sBP, dBP, fasting glucose, lipid profile and WBC count were evaluated before and after antipsychotics use. Rogistic regression was conducted to assess factors associated with weight gain. Results:First-episode psychotic patients showed more weight and BMI changes than controls after antipsychotics use, and these changes continue over 12 months. On the other hand, there were no significant factors associated with weight gain. Conclusion:The results of present study suggest that antispychotics is one of the major causes inducing weight gain of psychotic patients and antipsychotics-induced weight gain is more vulnerable to drug-naive first-episode psychotic patients.

The purpose of this study is to provide total data of real body-type and self-evaluation about it. The subjects were 614 middle-aged women between 35 and 59 years old. Data were collected through measurement and a questionnaire survey on self-evaluation. The results of self-evaluation of body are as follows; 1. As the result of the recognition degree analysis, people consider themselves thicker, shorter or smaller than what they really are, regardless of ages and types. In addition, the women of younger group rather than the women of order group consider themselves bigger/thicker and shorter than what they really are. They think that the items of waist girth, abdominal girth, hip girth, upper arm girth, and thigh girth are thicker than the other items, however, among girth items the size of bust girth is smaller than the other items. The women of the late middle-aged group consider their somatotype thicker/bigger and shorter than the women of the early middle-aged group do. 2. As the result of body cathexis for each part, women in general turn out themselves not to be satisfied with their body parts, regardless of ages and types. Particularly, they are not satisfied with abdominal girth, weight, hip girth. According to the age bracket, the women in the older group are more satisfied than the women of younger group in terms of their body. According to somatotype, women in tall and slim groups are more satisfied with their body. The women of the early middle-aged group turn out not to be satisfied with girth items while the women of the late middle-aged group are not satisfied with length items.

A questionnaire survey was conducted on 572 taxi drivers in Taejeon City to investigate the prevalence rate which was derived from the subjective symptoms of respondents according to the working condition and daily life effected on health. The disease were classified the cardiovascular disease, gastrointestinal disease, neurotic disease and musculoskeletal disease according to the subjetive symptoms. The results obtained were as follows : 1. Among the subjective symptoms. the complaint rate of latigability, eye strain, loss of appetite, irritability, dizziness on standing, stiffness on shoulder. and low back pain became decreased in that order. 2. The prevalence rates of cardiopulmonary and gastrointestinal disease were low in the old aged group, and the prevalence rates of all disease was proportional to the frequencies of accident experience. but no evident trend in job conditions. 3. The groups having regular meal time and rest after meal showed low prevalence rate in all disease. The sleeping time and smoking habit were related to the neurotic and cardiopulmonary disease. 4. The group of usual drug intake occupied 68% of all studied subjects, the age group of 40 or more and the group of having G-1 disease showed high rats of usual drug intake.

The study is tried to look for the quantitative approach to Budgeting-Making the public sector and to be classified roughly Budgeting-Making into three fields private, city-government and federal government. The generalization of the approach is to be construed with traits and common features of each fields that are to be traced on three fields. The budget would be the combination between scarce resources and limitless desires and so the budged is the product of Politics. The study is to adjust the focus of the possibility which in forming the produce would be available to make it scientific to pool all social powers and represent social equality and values. The quantification sometimes loses sight of the nature of the subjects and will become to be a parochial, but the substance of the quantification would be criteria which leads to explain in more detail lots of phenomena and to guide the settlement and then it would not be far from a science. The quantitative approaches are consisted of two demensions-one is micro and other macro. Two demensions are reciprocal in nature and according to objects they will be applied to each other. Incrementalism is based on the approach and in fact it would be criticized as actualistic, negative or satisfied, but only the contents and the effects of the budget could be so. The nature of the budget is concentrated on its effectiveness and results than actualistic or negative. The quantitification of the budget therefore could accelerate that the budget is to be a science and could bring it to be scrutinized. The quantification could not mean the sole-equation but could come multi-demensionals and a complex of all elements to be simple and warm.

This study was aimed to investigate the lipid components of total lipid and polar lipid of root and stem in colocasia antiquorum. The results were summarized as follows; 1. Total lipid contents in colocasia antiquorum was 0.35% in root, 0.16% in stem. 2. Total lipids were mainly composed of triglyceride, monoglyceride, sterol, polar-lipid, and as major component in root. Total lipids were mainly composed of monoglyceride, sterol, polarlipid, triglyceride and hydrocarbon as major component in stem. 3. The major fatty acids in total lipid were linoleic acid (34.5%), palmitic acid (24.1%) and oleic acid (20.9%) in root, linoleic acid (33.7%), palmitic acid (30.7%) and oleic acid (9.9%) in stem. Particularly, the contenrs of oleic acid of root were higher than those of stem. 4. The major fatty acids in polar lipid were palmitic acid (34.1%), linoleic acid (34.0%) and linolenic acid (7.9%) in root, linoleic acid (36.3%), palmitic acid(32.7) and oleic acid (9.0%) in stem. 5. The fatty acids components of total lipid in root and stem were 32.1% and 30.7% saturated fatty acids, 23.5% and 10.2% monoenoic fatty acids and 39.6% and 42.6% polyenoic fatty acids respectively. 6.
