Background: After successive trials and failures of various injectable materials such as bovine collagen, polyacryamide, calcium hydroxylapatite, etc., hyaluronic acid (HA) has become the most popular filling material. Many new HA fillers are being produced for the purpose of correcting wrinkles and augmentation of soft tissue. Objectives: This study aimed to test the efficacy, tolerability, and safety of a new HA filler, HA-IDF (Yvoire Classic s touch-up, LG Life Sciences, Inc., Seoul, South Korea) and compare HA-IDF with Restylane (Q-Med, Uppsala, Sweden). Methods: Fifty-eight subjects with visible nasolabial folds (NLFs) were enrolled in a randomized, multi-center, single-blind, active-controlled, matched-pair clinical study. Each subject was injected with HA-IDF in one NLF and Restylane in the other. All participants were assessed for cosmetic change at 2, 10, 18, and 26 weeks. Results: At screening, the average Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale (WSRS) for both right and left NLFs was 3.24±0.43. After 26 weeks, the results were 2.56±0.09 for both groups. There was no significant difference in WSRS scores for wrinkle improvement and in incidence of adverse events for both HA filler treatments. Conclusion: The new HA filler HA-IDF is effective and safe for correcting NLFs.

Lee, Gil-Yong,Ha, Suk-Jin,Jung, Jong-Hyun,Seo, Dong-Ho,Park, Jong-Yul,Kim, Su-Rin,Park, Nam-Woo,Kweon, Dong-Keon,Park, Sang-Hoo,Park, Cheon-Seok The Korean Society for Applied Biological Chemistr 2009 Applied Biological Chemistry (Appl Biol Chem) Vol.52 No.3

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a linear high-molecular-weight polysaccharide with useful biomedical applications. Streptococcus zooepidemicus, a typical HA-producing bacterium, requires an animal-derived nitrogen source such as tryptone, peptone or sheep blood as a nutrient. Sixteen non-animal-derived (NAD) nitrogen sources were tested as a replacement for the expensive animal-derived nitrogen sources, which may have safety issues. Among the sixteen tested NAD nitrogen sources, a yeast-derived nitrogen source (YE 0251) showed the highest HA productivity, which was equivalent to the control HA production medium containing tryptone in a 5-L jar and in 3,000-L industrial fermentations. In the 3,000-L fermentation, YE 0251 increased cell mass (dry cell weight) and HA production by 11% and 8%, respectively, compared with the control HA production medium. The fmal specific volumetric productivity (0.41 g/L h) was improved by about 70% after reducing the fermentation time from 20 h to 12 h, compared to the conventional production medium.

The soybean cultivar, ‘Saegeum’, has been developed for preparing soy-paste and tofu. The soybean cultivars ‘Daepung’ and ‘SS98207-3SSD-168’ were crossed in 2003 to obtain ‘Saegeum’. Single seed descent method was used to advance the generation from F3 to F5, and the plant lines with promising traits were selected from F6 to F7 by pedigree method. The preliminary yield (PYT) and advanced yield trials (AYT) were conducted from 2009 to 2010, and the regional yield trial (RYT) was conducted in 12 regions between 2011 and 2013. The morphological characteristics of ‘Saegeum’ were as follows: determinate plant type, white flower, tawny pubescence color, and brown pod color. Flowering and maturity dates were August 2, XXXX and October 17, XXXX, respectively. Plant height, first pod height, number of nodes, number of branches, and number of pods were 79 cm, 18 cm, 16, 2.3, and 44, respectively. The seed characteristics of ‘Saegeum’ were as follows: yellow spherical shape, yellow hilum, and the 100-seed weight was 25.4 g. ‘Saegeum’ was resistant to bacterial pustule and SMV in the field test, and its lodging resistance was mildly strong, whereas its shattering resistance was excellent. The ability of this cultivar to be processed into tofu, soybean malt, and other fermented products was comparable with that of ‘Daewonkong’. The yield of ‘Saegeum’ in the adaptable regions was 3.02 ton ha-1. Thus, ‘Saegeum’ is adaptable to mechanized harvesting because of its high first pod height, as well as lodging and shattering resistance. (Registration number: 5929)

Comparative study on long-term stability in mandibular sagittal split ramus osteotomy: hydroxyapatite/poly-ʟ-lactide mesh versus titanium miniplate

Park, Young-Wook,Kang, Hyun-Sik,Lee, Jang-Ha Korean Association of Maxillofacial Plastic and Re 2019 Maxillofacial Plastic Reconstructive Surgery Vol.41 No.-

Background: Resorbable devices have recently been adopted in the field of orthognathic surgery with controversies about their postoperative skeletal stability. Hence, we determined the long-term skeletal stability of unsintered hydroxyapatite/poly-ʟ-lactic acid (HA/PLLA) mesh for osteofixation of mandibular sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO), and compared it with that of titanium miniplate. Methods: Patients were divided into resorbable mesh and titanium miniplate fixation groups. A comparative study of the change in the mandibular position was performed with preoperative, 1-day, 6-month, and 2-year postoperative lateral cephalograms. Results: At postoperative 6 months-compared with postoperative 1 day, point B (supra-mentale) was significantly displaced anteriorly in the titanium-fixation group. Moreover, at postoperative 2 years-compared with postoperative 6 months, point B was significantly displaced inferiorly in the titanium-fixation. However, the HA/PLLA mesh-fixation group did not show any significant change with respect to point B postoperatively. Conclusions: The HA/PLLA mesh-fixation group demonstrated superior long-term skeletal stability with respect to the position of mandible, when compared with the titanium-fixation group.

흰물떼새(Charadrius alexandrinus)의 번식 성공에 대한 환경 요인의 영향

이동윤 ( Dong-yun Lee ),이주현 ( Ju-hyun Lee ),성하철 ( Ha-cheol Sung ) 한국환경생태학회 2021 한국환경생태학회 학술대회지 Vol.2021 No.2

The nest fate of plovers have been affected from around environmental factors such as vegetation, sediment grain size and others, because these factors correlate with the camouflage and consistent temperature of nest. The Kentish plover (Charadrius alexandrinus) is known to select nest site where vegetation cover is low to easily detect predators. However, recent studies show that their nest successes positively correlate with vegetation cover rate, because vegetation can hide incubating parents from predators. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the relationships between vegetation cover and nest fate, and between breeding success and other environmental factors (such as, sand, shell etc.). This study was carried out from early March to late July in 2020 at Saemangeum, specifically (1) Mangyeong estuary, Gunsan, Jellabuk-do; (2) Dongjin estuary, Buan, Jellabuk-do. The study area is reclaimed land with sandy coastal environment, and the size of Mangyeong estuary was about 1,011 ha, Dongjin estuary was about 893 ha. Sedges (family Cyperaceae) were the major vegetation in these locations. We analyzed the effect of environmental factors on the breeding success of Kentish plovers. First, we measured five variables in field: nest diameter (cm), nest height (cm), nest slope (°), distance from nest to the nearest vegetation (m), and the height of the nearest vegetation (cm). Then, we obtained the coordinate of each nest with a GPS and measured distance from nest to water resource (m) using satellite map (Kakao map). We also estimated the cover of environmental factors using 1m² quadrat. The quadrat photos were taken by two ways for each nest: 1) centered on the nest within a 1m²; 2) randomly selected two points in 10m distance from a nest. On the analysis of variables in quadrat photo, we measured the 11 variables. First, we measured the cover of nest area (mm²) and the cover of five environmental factors (dry vegetation, vegetation, sand (grain size < 2 mm), shell and other object; mm²) on the quadrat photos of centered on the nest within a 1m². Second, we also measured the cover of five environmental factors in each photo and calculated the average of two photos on the each factor on the quadrat photos of randomly selected two points in 10m distance from a nest. For statistical analysis, we translated variables using “X = log10 (x + 1); X = translated value; x = origin value” before modelling and analyzed using Generalized Linear Model (GLM). The model criteria was Akaike Criteria Information (AIC). Then, we used Mann-Whitney U test to compared variables between successful and failed nests in the best model. All statistical analysis had a significant effect at p < 0.05. We analyzed 285 quadrat photos (95 photos within a 1m² quadrat centered on each nest; 190 photos on the randomly selected points within 10m area from each nest) from 95 nests: 60 nests in Mangyeong (35 successful nests and 25 failed nests); 35 nests in Dongjin (28 successful nests and 7 failed nests). As the results of GLM, the best model was composed not environmental factors, but three nest factors: nest area, nest diameter and nest slope. In this model, nest area and nest diameter were significant (p < 0.05). However, according to Mann-Whitney test, these factors did not differ between successful and failed nests (p > 0.05). Therefore, when researchers studied the effect of nest factors on the breeding success, nest area and nest diameter should be considered together. On the effect of environmental factors, all factors, which included vegetation and dry vegetation cover, did not affect breeding success. Thus, the other environmental factors should be studied to reveal which one affects the breeding success of Kentish plovers.

광릉 슈퍼사이트에서 대기와 식생간의 에너지와 물질교환 규명은 지형과 식생의 복잡성으로 인해 많은 기술적인 어려움에 직면하고 있다. 따라서 KoFlux 연구에서는 상호보완적인 다중 분야의 연구를 통해 이러한 어려움을 극복하기 위한 시도를 해 오고 있다. 본 논문에서는 현재 진행중인 KoFlux 연구의 예비결과 중 특히 광릉사이트에서의 물/탄소수지, 물과 탄소순환의 상호관련성 그리고 몬순기후하의 생태계에서 탄소순환에 미치는 수문학적 요인의 중요성에 대해 중점적으로 논의하고자 한다. 광릉낙엽활엽수림의 순생태생산량 (NEP)은 광범위한 생태학적 연구결과에 따르면 약 ~2.6 t C/ha/y로 예상된다. 이를 미기상 플럭스 관측 결과와 함께 고려할 때 광릉 산림은 탄소의 중요한 육상흡원으로서 기능함을 예상할 수 있다. 다양한 생태수문 관측에 의해 규명된 유역단위 물수지에 의하면 연단위 전체강수량의 약 30-40%가 증발산 (ET)에 해당함을 나타내고 있다. 광릉산림의 대표적인 수종인 졸참과 서어나무의 잎에서 얻어진 탄소 안정동위 원소 조성에 근거하여 계산된 식물 성장기간의 평균 물 이용효율(WUE)은 약 ~12 μmol CO2/mmol H2O에 해당된다. 얻어진 증발산량과 물이용효율은 유역단위의 생태계 생산량을 산출하는데 이용될 수 있다. 나이테 성장량과 토양호흡량의 연단위 변화는 강수량과 강수의 패턴에 의해 크게 영향을 받음을 보이고, 이는 몬순기후에 영향을 받는 동아시아 지역 생태계에서 탄소 순환과정이 수문학적 조건과 밀접한 상관관계를 가짐을 지시한다. 연구지역의 공간적 특성을 정량화하기 위해 관측지의 구조 및 기능적 단위를 규명하기 위한 연구가 진행되고 있고 이를 통해 서로 다른 시공간 규모에서 진행되고 있는 연구의 결과물을 체계적으로 연결 통합하고 나아가 보다 광역적인 규모에서 대표적인 물/탄소 수지를 산출하기 위한 연구가 시도되고 있다. KoFlux Gwangneung Supersite comprises complex topography and diverse vegetation types (and structures), which necessitate complementary multi-disciplinary measurements to understand energy and matter exchange. Here, we report the results of this ongoing research with special focuses on carbon/water budgets in Gwangneung forest, implications of inter-dependency between water and carbon cycles, and the importance of hydrology in carbon cycling under monsoon climate. Comprehensive biometric and chamber measurements indicated the mean annual net ecosystem productivity (NEP) of this forest to be ~2.6 t C ha-1 y-1. In conjunction with the tower flux measurement, the preliminary carbon budget suggests the Gwangneung forest to be an important sink for atmospheric CO2. The catchment scale water budget indicated that 30~40% of annual precipitation was apportioned to evapotranspiration (ET). The growing season average of the water use efficiency (WUE), determined from leaf carbon isotope ratios of representative tree species, was about 12 μmol CO2/mmol H2O with noticeable seasonal variations. Such information on ET and WUE can be used to constrain the catchment scale carbon uptake. Inter-annual variations in tree ring growth and soil respiration rates correlated with the magnitude and the pattern of precipitation during the growing season, which requires further investigation of the effect of a monsoon climate on the catchment carbon cycle. Additionally, we examine whether structural and functional units exist in this catchment by characterizing the spatial heterogeneity of the study site, which will provide the linkage between different spatial and temporal scale measurements.

Son, Jun Seong,Song, Jae-Hoon,Ko, Kwan Soo,Yeom, Joon Sup,Ki, Hyun Kyun,Kim, Shin-Woo,Chang, Hyun-Ha,Ryu, Seong Yeol,Kim, Yeon-Sook,Jung, Sook-In,Shin, Sang Yop,Oh, Hee Bok,Lee, Yeong Seon,Chung, Doo The Korean Academy of Medical Sciences 2010 JOURNAL OF KOREAN MEDICAL SCIENCE Vol.25 No.7

<P>Recent changes in healthcare systems have changed the epidemiologic paradigms in many infectious fields including bloodstream infection (BSI). We compared clinical characteristics of community-acquired (CA), hospital-acquired (HA), and healthcare-associated (HCA) BSI. We performed a prospective nationwide multicenter surveillance study from 9 university hospitals in Korea. Total 1,605 blood isolates were collected from 2006 to 2007, and 1,144 isolates were considered true pathogens. HA-BSI accounted for 48.8%, CA-BSI for 33.2%, and HCA-BSI for 18.0%. HA-BSI and HCA-BSI were more likely to have severe comorbidities. <I>Escherichia coli</I> was the most common isolate in CA-BSI (47.1%) and HCA-BSI (27.2%). In contrast, <I>Staphylococcus aureus</I> (15.2%), coagulase-negative <I>Staphylococcus</I> (15.1%) were the common isolates in HA-BSI. The rate of appropriate empiric antimicrobial therapy was the highest in CA-BSI (89.0%) followed by HCA-BSI (76.4%), and HA-BSI (75.0%). The 30-day mortality rate was the highest in HA-BSI (23.0%) followed by HCA-BSI (18.4%), and CA-BSI (10.2%). High Pitt score and inappropriate empirical antibiotic therapy were the independent risk factors for mortality by multivariate analysis. In conclusion, the present data suggest that clinical features, outcome, and microbiologic features of causative pathogens vary by origin of BSI. Especially, HCA-BSI shows unique clinical characteristics, which should be considered a distinct category for more appropriate antibiotic treatment.</P>

For the direct methanol fuel cell, the expensive cost of Pt is one of the most important factors. In this study, various kinds of support were synthesized and chosen for highly dispersed catalysts which need less amount of Pt and show higher activity. A mesoporous carbon was selected as a support which has 5 times larger specific surface area than Vulcan XC-72, a commercial support. Such a large surface area gave an advantage in the dispersion of Pt, but a disadvantage in electric conductivity which could be solved by increasing the carbonizaton temperature in the preparation of mesoporous carbon. These prepared mesoporous carbons were used as supports of Pt. Among the catalysts, the catalyst using mesoporous carbon carbonized at 1000 ℃ showed better activity than the catalyst using Vulcan XC-72 as a support showing the best activity. From the XRD analysis, the activity was proportional to the dispersion of Pt.

Vygotsky의 ZPD이론에 기초한 유아 교수-학습방법에의 적용

이현섭,하은숙 진주산업대학교 2001 論文集 Vol.40 No.-

The purpose of this study are to investigate Vygotsky's Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) theory, and to discuss his theory in terms of the practice of early childhood education. Based on Vygotsky's theory of ZPD, the following suggestions can be drawn : 1. In order to provide the foundation of learning of young children, teachers should evaluate them using dynamic method of assessing their ZPD. 2. Since teacher are one of the most important factors influencing children's development, they should try to improve their professional quality. 3. The ratio of teacher vs children should be lower and children should be divided into small groups for more effective scaffolding. 4. Mixed age group is more effective than homogeneous age group in order to enhance young children's active peer interaction. 5. Teacher should select and provide children with various activities in which children can experience cooperation with peers and social interaction with other using language. 6. Teacher should establish an appropriate educational objectives for each child on the basis of the results of the dynamic assessment

전반적 발달장애아의 의사소통특성 고찰

이현섭,하영례 진주산업대학교 2002 論文集 Vol.41 No.-

Children with PDD have significant difficulties in pragmatics or social use of language. The purpose of this study is to explore theoretically the communicative characteristics of children with PDD and the theories about the fundamental cause of their communicative disorder.Examples of spared and impaired components of communication in children with PDD are as follows: Spared components are speech sounds, linguistic form, questions for requests, turn-taking abilities, protoimperatives(requests, commands), and instrumental gestures. Impaired components are intonation, voice quality, linguistic function, questions seeking information, adding to conversational topic, protodeclaratives(comments, informing), and expressive gestures. Generally speaking, the theories about the cause of communicative impairment in PDD can classified into two perspectives: cognitive deficit perspective and social-affective perspective. According to cognitive perspective, the difficulties in communication are due to the deficit of symbolic play, theory of mind, executive function, and central coherence. Social-affective perspective argues that the deficit of gaze behavior, joint attention, imitation, and attachment result in communicative impairment. This two perspectives are complementary rather than contradictory because they are concerned with distinct, separate levels of causality. Therefore, it is necessary to integrate two perspectives for the available research and clinical knowledge.
