Objective : Acupuncture has been widely used throughout the world for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis (knee OA). This study investigated whether acupuncture, particularly Sa-am acupuncture, could be effective in relieving pain and improving the symptoms of knee OA. Method : This study was conducted as a prospective, randomized, controlled, and patient- and investigator-blinded clinical trial. Forty volunteers with knee OA participated in the study. All participants were screened through an inclusion and exclusion criteria. Thirty four participants completed the clinical trial. In total, forty subjects were randomly selected to receive Sa-am acupuncture. Eight sessions of acupuncture were given at the contralateral side of the problematic knee for 4 weeks. Korean translation of Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (KWOMAC) scores were measured twice: at the beginning and end of the clinical trial period. Both the Patient Global Assessment and physical health scores based on the 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey were also used to measure the results. Results : Compared to the pre-trial scores, the Sa-am acupuncture group (n=34) showed a significant decrease in KWOMAC total scores according to a paired t-test. The Sa-am acupuncture group also showed significant improvement in the Patient Global Assessment when compared to the pre-trial. Conclusions : Sa-am acupuncture for knee OA resulted in an improved KWOMAC total score. This was mostly driven by the function component score that was greatly affected by acupuncture. However, further studies with expanded designs are needed to solidify this finding with scientific rigor.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of parents' dietary habit and nutritional recognition on the dietary habit of disabled students and to provide information to establish dietary guideline for disabled students. The less fast-foods they ate, the less snack they ate (p<0.01). Seventy percents of students had an unbalanced diet. Their disliked foods were vegetables, fruits, meat, and fish and the reasons were taste, strangeness, smell, and shape. The students with disliked food had 10.54 point higher dietary score than those without. Average frequency of snack was 1-2 per a day. The parents thought that school meal provide sufficient nutrition provided fewer snacks to their children (p< 0.05). The types of snack were milk and dairy products, fruits and fruit juices, and breads. Thirty four percents of the parents had disliked foods, such as meat, fish, vegetables, fruits, and dairy products because of its taste, smell, strangeness, shape, and color. Most parents did not know enough about nutrition labeling. Parents obtained nutritional information mainly from TV and radio. However, highly educated mothers obtained nutritional information from newspaper and magazine (p<0.05). Dietary score of the parents was higher than that of children by 3.83 points. Dietary score of students whose parents had an unbalanced diet was lower than that of the students whose parents did not, suggesting that children's dietary habit were influenced by their parent's. In addition, dietary score of students whose parents know nutrition labeling well was higher than that of the students whose parents don't. In conclusion, dietary habits of the students and their parents had a significant positive (r=0.53, p<0.01) correlation.

Thrombohemorrhagic complications in chronic myeloproliferative disease(CMPD) including chronic myelogenous leukemia(CML) are not rare. Lower incidence of disordered hemostasis is reported in CML compared with other CMPD. The mechanism of thrombohemorrhagic complications might be a consequence of qualitative platelet abnormalites and prolonged bleeding time rather than that of thrombocytosis. Although defect of platelet function has been extensively investigated, there was no established consistent correlation between clinical bleeding and number and function of platelet. The most common site of bleeding complications in the CMPD is superficial mucosa. Bleeding in deep tissue and viscera is very unusual. We report a case of CML which developed a huge spontaneous retroperitoneal hematoma.

A single phase induction motor(SPIM) with two windings, main and auxiliary, is probably the most widely used motor in the world due to their ruggedness, low maintenance and simplicity of construction There are several ways of starting single phase motors The most popular arrangements is centrifugal switch An auxiliary winding connected in series with a capacitor, is brought into the circuit during starting The closing and opening of the switch must be speed dependant The switch meets the speed requirements, but it also has many drawback random switching, arcing, many models necessary for different speeds and shaft diameters, space required inside the motors and limited lifetime to name some of them. In this paper, the starting current of single phase induction motor was detected by a small detector and determined TRIAC gate signal. The strategy of current control is based on limited main and auxiliary current angle during starting period in the closed-loop control. The experimental result show the motor's starting characteristics of the proposal starting system and are compared with centrifugal switch starting motor.

In this study, piezoceramics/polymer composities with 3-3 connectivity were made by BURPS(Burnout Plastic Sphere) technique with PZT ceramics and PVA sphere. And physical and dielectric properties dependent on the PVA wt.% were n vestigated. The density of porous piezoceramic and piezoceramic/polymer 3-3 composites were decreased almost linearty with increasing the PVA wt.%.

In has been prepared by a coprecipitation method for Ferroxplana Ni₂Y(Ba₂Ni₂Fe O ) magnetic particles, which is one of the hexagonal ferrite. The coprecipitates were synthesized by adding aqueous solution of BaCl₂·2H₂O, Nicl₂·6H₂O and FeCl₃·6H₂O(of which the mole ratio is Ba²+:Ni²+:Fe³+=1:1:6) to a mixture of NaOH and Na₂CO₃ solution. The shape of Ferroxplana Ni₂Y magnetic particles obatined at the calcined temperature 1,100(℃) was hexagonal plate-like, average particle size was 2(m), and aspect ratio was more than 7.

박정학,이수호,사공 건 東亞大學校 大學院 1995 大學院論文集 Vol.20 No.-

In this paper, the dielectric and piezoelectric properties of piezocermics(PZT) made by coprecipitation method and metal oxide method were investigated. At and over pH 8 coprecipitates were obtained. The particle size of PZT powders obtained by coprecipitation method was about 0.1(μm). It's shape was spherical and fine grain. The sintering temperature was lowered about 150(℃) than that of conventional metal oxide mettled since fine grained particle was obtained. By preparing piezoceramics PZT by the coprecipitation method, the dielectric and piezoelectric properties were improved in comparision with that of conventional metal oxide method. In particular, the best results obtained by both methods were shown at Zr/Ti composition ratio 52/48.

Femoral pseudoaneurysm is important complication after diagnostic femoral catheterizationor more complex procedure. With the increasing use of larger-size percutaneous instruments and periprocedual anticoagulant or antiplatelet agent the incidence of postcatheterization femorl artery injuries ncluding pseudoaneuiysm has increased in the past few years. Duplex ultrasonography and addition of color- flow Doppler provides an accurate, noninvasive. risk-free diagnosis and faster detection of intraaneurysrnal blood flow and the track betweenthe injured artery and the pseudoaneurysm. Though early surgical repair of the arterial defect is usually recommended because of severeand life-threatening complication such as rupture, fhrornboembolism, compression neuropathyetc, Ultrasono-Guided Compression Repair(UGCR) is to be first-line treatment for its advantagesuch as high success rate, low morbidity and cost-effectiveness. The authors report 2 cases of femoral psoudoaneurysrns treated using UGCR with nlanualcompression with C-clamp at the same time as a nonsurgical treatment.
