<P>Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with increased mortality rate in patients but clinically available biomarkers for disease detection are currently not available. Recently, a new biomarker, selenium-binding protein 1 (SBP1), was identified for detection of nephrotoxicity using proteomic analysis. The aim of this study was to assess the sensitivity of urinary SBP1 levels as an early detection of AKI using animal models such as cisplatin or ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). Sprague-Dawley rats were injected with cisplatin (6 mg/kg, once i.p.) and sacrificed at 1, 3, or 5 days after treatment. Ischemia was achieved by bilaterally occluding both kidneys with a microvascular clamp for 45 min and verified visually by a change in tissue color. After post-reperfusion, urine samples were collected at 9, 24, and 48 hr intervals. Urinary excretion of protein-based biomarkers was measured by Western blot analysis. In cisplatin-treated rats, mild histopathologic alterations were noted at day 1 which became severe at day 3. Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine (SCr) levels were significantly increased at day 3. Levels of urinary excretion of SBP1, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), and a tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) were markedly elevated at day 3 and 5 following drug treatment. In the vehicle-treated I/R group, serum levels of BUN and SCr and AST activity were significantly increased compared to sham. Urinary excretion of SBP1 and NGAL rose markedly following I/R. The urinary levels of SBP1, NGAL, TIMP-1, and KIM-1 proteins excreted by AKI patients and normal subjects were compared. Among these proteins, a marked rise in SBP1 was observed in urine of patients with AKI compared to normal subjects. Based upon receiver-operator curves (ROC), SBP1 displayed a higher area under the curve (AUC) scores than levels of SCr, BUN, total protein, and glucose. In particular, SBP1 protein was readily detected in small amounts of urine without purification. Data thus indicate that urinary excretion of SBP1 may be useful as a reliable biomarker for early diagnosis of AKI in patients.</P>

It is possible not only to treat high concentration organic matter such as food wastes but also to utilize food wastes as resources according to the bio-energy generation such as methane. The method of co-digestion of mixed wastewater mixed with organic wastes such as sewage sludge concentrated waters together with drinking wastewater is the most ideal method. Radiation not only has germicidal power in water treatment, but also is effective in decomposing degradable organic matter. Second chemical contamination problem is also solved because it does not use chemicals. Introduction of radiation pretreatment system to solve problems caused by mixing of waste water and organic waste resources. Biological electrochemical fusion system is used to remove the nutrients contained in the organic matter-removed mixture. Through the development of a system for treatment of high concentration wastewater, the processing efficiency is verified through the universal water treatment system for wastewater containing high concentration organic matter in addition to treatment of wastewater.

해외여행의 일반화에 따른 우리나라 국내외 입국자수의 증가로 2001년 항공 수요를 분담하고, 아시아 허브 공항의 축을 담당할 인천국제 공항이 개장되었다. 이후 김포 공항은 국내 항공 수요만 담당하였으나 2007년 이후로 중국, 일본과 같은 지리적 인접국에 대한 국제선 수요가 증가하였다. 여기에 공항철도 운영으로 이용객의 접근성이 높아져 지속적인 증가가 예상되지만 여기에 발생되는 이용객의 문제점에 대한 연구는 충분히 수행되지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 HCI 방법으로 공항철도를 이용하는 승객들의 문제점을 찾고 이에 해결 방안을 제시한다. 이를 수행하기 위해 심층인터뷰(in-depth interview) 방식으로 대중교통을 이용하여 김포공항을 이용하는 사람들의 니즈(needs)와 페인포인트(pain points)를 찾았다. 여기서 도출 된 짐에 대한 불편함을 바탕으로 ‘어떻게 하면 이동을 부담감을 줄일 수 있을까?’라는 디자인 코어(design core)를 도출할 수 있었다. 디자인 코어를 바탕으로 지미서비스(zimmy service)를 제안한다. 지미서비스는 첫 번째로 ZIMMY early delivery service, 두번째로 ZIMMY freeway service, 마지막으로 ZIMMY anabada movement이다. 이는 대중교통을 이용해 김포공항을 이용하는 이용객의 편의를 높이기 위한 서비스로서 이후 다양한 서비스디자인의 연구와 개발이 기대된다. Incheon International airport opened at 2001 to be hub airport of Asia and to take Kimpo International airport’s share of airline demands according to increaing of travelers because oversea trips have been common. After Incheon International airport opened, Kimpo International airport only had taken in charge of domestic demands. However Kimpo airport started to run some international airlines because there were increse of International airlines demands in nearest countris like China and Japan since 2007. The accessability of Kim-po airport by public transportation is better than In-cheon airport. Although passengers of airport railroad express are predicted to be increased because of easy transportation access, there are not many research to take care of airport railroad express users. This study will use HCI method to find the pain points of users and to suggest solutions. In this study, we would like to suggest Zimmy Service, which is deducter by service design process, for accessconvenience to ustomers who are using Airport Express Railroad Gimpo station. We conduct IDI(in-depth interview) to find customer’s needs and pain points and were drown a design core as ‘How might we reduce inconvenience when they move?’. By design core, we are suggesting Zimmy service. There are 3 elements in Zimmy service, early delivery service, freeway service and anabada movement. It is the service design in order to increase access convenience who a using public transportation to go to the Gimpo Airport. And more research and development of service design is expected to suggest various services for public transportation users.

급성 백혈병 환자에서 감염증의 양상 및 예후인자에 관한 연구 : 1988년∼1995년까지

정희진,김병수,신상원,김열홍,김우주,김민자,김준석,박승철,김권범 대한감염학회 1998 감염 Vol.30 No.3

목적 : 급성 백혈병의 경우 골수기능이 억제되고 항암화학요법에 따른 골수기능 저하로 감염의 위험이 증가하며 감염의 치료가 환자의 생존에 큰 영향을 미치게 된다. 이에 저자들은 1988년부터 1995년까지 고대 구로병원에 급성 백혈병으로 입원했던 환자들 중 입원 기간 내 감염이 있었던 경우를 대상으로 하여 감염의 위험인자 및 감염증의 예후를 후향적으로 분석함으로써 향후 급성 백혈병환자의 감염의 치료에 대한 지침을 얻고자 하였다. 방법 : 급성 백혈병으로 확진된 환자들 중 감염병에 이환된 경우를 대상으로 하여 각각을 미생물학적 확인감염, 임상적 확인감염, 그리고 설명 불가열로 구분하였다. 각각의 경우에서 감염 당시의 호중구 수, 호중구 감소 기간, 항암화학요법과의 연관성, 감염 병소, 배양된 검체 및 원인균, 선택적 소화관 살균법의 사용여부 및 골수회복 여부 등을 조사한 후 환자의 예후와 어떤 관계가 있는 지 조사하였다. 결과 : 연구 대상은 총 113예로 남녀비는 46:67 이었고 평균연령은 34±13세, 진단은 급성 골수성 백혈병 (AML)이 84예, 급성 림프구성 백혈병(ALL)이 29예였으며, 감염시 평균 호중구수는 663±1678/㎣이었고, 호중구 감소 기간은 평균 18±13일이었다. 감염양상은 항암화학요법과 연관된 감염이 84예로 대부분이었고 미생물학적 확인 감염이 40예로서 35%였으며, 폐렴과 원발성 패혈증이 각각 20예와 19예로 가장 많았고, 카테터 연관 감염이 7예로 나타났다. 배양된 균주는 E. coli가 10예(25%)로서 가장 많았으며, 전체적으로 E. coli, P. aeruginosa, K. pneumoniae 등의 그람음성균이 63%로 대부분을 차지하였으나 최근 그람양성구군 및 진균의 분리율이 증가하는 양상을 보였다. 감염증의 예후를 분석한 결과 진균 감염인 경우나 호중구 감소 기간이 긴 경우 사망률이 높았으며 그 중에서도 골수 기능이 회복 여부가 환자들의 생존과 통계적으로 유의한 연관이 있었다.(P=0.01). 결론 : 급성 백혈병 환자들에서의 감염은 관해유도화학요법 후 초래되는 호중구 감소와 유의한 관계가 있으며, 폐렴 및 패혈증의 임상양상을 보이는 경우가 흔하고, 원인균별로는 그람 음성균이 주류를 이루나 최근 그람 양성균 감염이 증가하는 추세를 보였다. 감염의 예후 인자로는 진균 감염인 경우나 호중구 감소 기간이 긴 경우 사망률이 높았으나 골수 기능의 회복여부가 결정적인 역할을 하는 것으로 나타나, 향후 급성 백혈병 환자의 치료에 있어 감염 빈도의 감소와 감염에서의 조속한 회복을 위해서는 골수 기능의 회복에 중점을 두어야 할 것으로 사료된다. Background : Infection is one of the most important and fatal complications in patients with acute leukemia. The characteristics of infection in acute leukemic patients are different from those in other diseases by the lack of normal inflammatory responses or distinct clinical evidence except fever. To improve the outcome of acute leukemia, it is very important to recognize the risk factors, patterns and prognostic factors of acute leukemia. Methods : We analyzed retrospectively the patterns of infection from 113 febrile patients with acute leukemia from January, 1988 to December, 1995. To determine the prognostic factors and the outcome of infection, the following variables were analyzed: the presence of neutropenia, use of chemotherapeutic agents, type and site of infections, isolated organisms, gastrointestinal decontamination, duration of neutropenia, and bone marrow recovery. Results : Out of 113 febrile patients with acute leukemia, 84 infection episodes(74%) occurred after chemotherapy. The mean duration of neutropenia was 18±13 days. The incidence of microbiologically-documented infection(MDI) was 35%(40/113). Pneumonia was the most common infection(26%), followed by primary sepsis(24%), catheter-related infection(9%). In cases of MDI, 63% were caused by gram-negative bacteria, followed by gram-positive bacteria(28%), and fungi(10%). Escherichia coli(25%) was the most common isolated in MDI. Regarding the prognostic factors in cases with infections, the recovery of bone marrow function was the only statistically significant factor(P=0.01). Conclusion : Infection has been a major cause of morbidity and mortality in acute in acute leukemic patients. To prevent infection and thereby improve the prognosis of acute leukemia, restoration of bone marrow function at early stage is important.

김소월 「시혼」의 이기론적(理氣論的)고찰

This study aims at clarifying that Kim, So-Wol`s poetics is based on LiKi(理氣)philosophy. And this is to show the distinction between Western ideas like Romanticism which is accepted by Kim-uk and So-Wol`s traditional poetics. The results are as follows. First, So-Wol is realized paradoxical sense which can find out positive meaning from negative thing and overcome Western dichotomy by LiKijimyo(理氣之妙) principal means that Li(理) as Hyungisanja(形而上者: metaphysical thing) and Ki(氣) as Hyungihaja (形而下者: physical thing)are neither divided nor united. Second, So-Wol emphasizes that immutable character of Sihon(詩 魂) on his poetics because he wants to show Li`s character as inevitable cause and right. As he authorizes Sihon(詩魂) ontological and axiological character of Li, Sihon(詩魂) has Good truth and thereby has good effect for society. Unlike Kim-uk`s romanticism, to display subjectivity on So-Wol`s poetics is based on LiKi philosophy has a effect for society, because the subjectivity has a moral sensibility. Last, like Li and Ki, Sihon(詩魂) is manifested on poetry by Umyoung(陰影), so poetry is valuated by not Sihon but Umyoung. But So-Wol contradicted himself by asserting that Umyoung(陰影) isn`t discussed merits and demerits. This is explained by considering LiKijimyo(理氣之妙). Ki is a manifestation of Li, therefore when we see poetry as Ki with view is based on authenticity, Ki is not a thing of judgement. But when we poetry with view is based on substantiality, Ki is a thing of judgement. In conclusion, So-Wol intended to include not only eternal nature but also substantiality on modern poetry with LiKi(理氣) philosophy.

The cytotoxic T lymphocyte(CTL) are an important component in host defense mechanism against viral infection. They can recongnize virus-derived peptides presented by the ClassⅠ MHC molecule at the cell surface of the infected cells. On searching for effective CTL epitopes of hepatitis B virus(HBV), we synthesized a distinct set of 9-10 mer peptide containing amino acid sequence of hepatitis B virus surface proteion that are selected on the basis of a computer modeling and the previously described HLA-A2 specific motifs. Binding assay of the synthetic peptides to HLA-A2 molecules using human antigen processing defectantn T2 cells showed what 3 out of 4 synthetic peptides enhaced the expression of HLA-A2 molemule on T2 cell surface. Two anchor positions, namely P2 and P9(or P10) appeared to play a decisive role for binding. Structural chacteristics of the peptides addressed by molecular dynamics simulation was analysed and compared. These peptides also parially triggerd CTL isolatied frmo human peripheral blood mononuclear cells of HBV positive patients, and the response was peptide-specific. These results showed that negatively-charged amino acid residue at P2 hampered binding affinity of the peptides to HLA-A2 molecules, and that binding affinity of the peptides are not always reflected by thier immunogenicity among natural T cell repertoire.
