Background/Aims: Recent epidemiologic studies have shown a continued increase in colorectal cancer incidence among younger adults. Little is known about the factors that contribute to the development of young-onset colorectal neoplasia (CRN). Methods: A cross-sectional analysis was performed for individuals younger than 40 years who underwent colonoscopy in Seoul St. Mary’s Hospital and its affiliated health screening center. High-risk CRN was defined as adenoma or sessile serrated lesion ≥ 10 mm, with three or more adenomas, villous histology, high grade dysplasia, or carcinoma. Results: Of these 13,621 included participants, 2,023 (14.9%) had one and more CRN. Young patients with CRN tended to be elderly, male, obese, smoker, having a habit of drinking, and having comorbidities such as hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes, and chronic kidney disease. In a multivariate analysis adjusted for age, sex, obesity, smoking status, and alcohol intake, old age (odds ratio [OR], 1.086; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.054 to 1.119), male sex (OR, 1.748; 95% CI, 1.247 to 2.451), obesity (OR, 1.439; 95% CI, 1.133 to 1.828), and smoking (OR, 1.654; 95% CI, 1.287 to 2.127) were independent risk factors for overall CRN. Obesity and smoking as two modifiable factors increased the risk for high-risk CRN even more than for overall CRN (OR, 1.734; 95% CI, 1.168 to 2.575 and OR, 1.797; 95% CI, 1.172 to 2.753, respectively). Conclusions: Obesity and smoking were modifiable risk factors for CRN in young adults. They increased the risk for highrisk CRN even more than for overall CRN. A colonoscopy might be beneficial for young individuals with these factors.

정은정(Eun-Jung Chung),김수연(Soo-Yeon Kim),김지영(Ji-Young Kim),안지영(Ji-Young Ahn),박정화(Jung-Wha Park),차명화(Myung-Hwa Cha),이양자(Yang-Cha Lee Kim) 한국식품영양과학회 2003 한국식품영양과학회지 Vol.32 No.2

혈중 지질농도는 식이단백질 종류보다는 연령의 영향을 많이 받아, young군보다 old군의 총 콜레스테롤, TG, HDL-콜레스테롤, LDL+VLDL-콜레스테롤 및 AI 모두 높았다. 한편 콩 단백질군에서 HDL-콜레스테롤 수준이 증가하고, LDL+VLDL-콜레스테롤와 AI는 감소하여, 심혈관질환에 대한 콩 단백질의 유익한 효과를 확인할 수 있었다. 식이단백질에 의해 유의한 영향을 받은 혈장 인지질의 지방산조성중 22:0, 18:1ω9, ∑MUFA 조성은 카제인군에서 콩 단백질군 보다 높았으며, 반대로 ∑SFA 조성은 카제인군에서 낮았다. 연령에 의해 혈장 인지질 지방산 조성에 있어 유의한 차이를 보인 지방산 중 22:0, 18:1ω9, 22:1, 18:3ω3 및 22:4ω6는 young군에서 높은 반면에, 22:6ω3, ∑ω3, 18:2ω6, 20:4ω6, ∑ω6 및 ∑PUFA의 조성비율은 old군에서 높게 나타났다. 이와 같이 식이 단백질의 종류보다 연령의 영향력이 더 많이 나타난 것은 혈중 콜레스테롤 수준이 식이 단백질보다는 연령의 영향을 더 크게 받았기 때문으로 생각된다. 혈장 인지질 지방산의 대사지표 중 Δ7-desaturation index(16:0⇒16:1ω7)와 Δ9-desaturation index(18:0⇒18:1ω9)가 식이 단백질의 영향을 받아 카제인군에 비해 콩 단백질군에서 유의하게 낮았다. Δ7- 및 Δ9-desaturation index만이 식이 단백질의 영향을 받은 것은 식이 단백질보다 desaturase 활성에 더 큰 영향력을 미치는 콜레스테롤이 식이에 첨가되었기 때문이라 생각된다. Δ-4 desaturation index (22:4ω6⇒22:5ω6)는 young군에 비해 old군에서 높았으며, elongation index(20:4 ω6⇒22:4ω6)는 old군에서 낮았다. 대부분의 elongation과 desaturation 단계는 연령에 따라 유의한 차이를 보이지 못하였으나, ω3계 지방산의 전체적인 elongation-desaturation 단계를 나타내는 ∑products-fatty acid(ω3)/α-LNA(ω3) 비율이 old군에서 young군보다 유의하게 높아, 연령에 따른 PUFA 대사의 변화가 관찰되었다. 이상에서와 같이, 콩 단백질의 섭취로 흰쥐 혈장 인지질의 ∑MUFA 조성은 낮고 ∑SFA 조성은 높아 다른 지질 강화성분의 섭취와 유사한 결과를 나타내었다. 혈중 콜레스테롤 수준이 높은 old군에서 체내 막조직의 유동성을 유지하기 위해 PUFA의 합성 특히 ω3계 지방산의 elongation-desaturation이 증가하여 총 PUFA 조성이 young군보다 높았다. 연구결과로 이소플라본을 포함한 콩 단백질의 혈중 지질저하 기전에 대해 체계적인 설명은할 수 없지만, 콩 단백질이 혈장 지방산의 조성을 변화시킴으로써 간접적으로 심혈관계 질환에 대해 유익한 효과를 미침을 알 수 있었다. 한편, 이러한 혈관의 건강과 관련된 콩의 유익한 효과는 이소플라본과 같은 콩의 특정 성분의 단독효과라기보다는 콩 단백질과의 복합효과에 의한 것이라는 주장은 매우 설득력 있다고 생각된다. Effects of soy protein concentrate (SPC) containing isoflavone and casein diets on plasma phospholipid (PLs)-fatty acid patterns were investigated in 7- & 40- wk old female rats. Diets containing 16% SPC (soy/young: SY, soy/old: SO) and casein (casein/young: CY, casein/ old: CO) supplemented with 0.5% cholesterol were fed for 4 wks. Fatty acid compositions of plasma PLs were determined by TLC and GLC. Compared to the dietary protein effects, age effects on serum lipids were more profound. The levels of total cholesterol (Chol.), triglyceride, HDL-Chol., (LDL+VLDL)-Chol. and atherogenic index (AI) were higher in older groups (OC & OS) than younger groups (YC & YS). Soy groups had higher HDL-Chol. level and lower (LDL+VLDL)-Chol. and AI, compared with casein groups. The compositions of C22:0, C18:1ω9 and sum of MUFA in plasma PLs were significantly higher in casein group (CY & CO) than soy group (SY & SO), but those of sum of SFA were higher in soy group. The compositions of C22:0, C18:1ω9, C22:1, C18:3ω3 and C22:4ω6 were higher and those of C22:6ω3, sum ofω3, C18:2ω6 C20:4ω6, sum ofω6 and sum of PUFA were lower in plasma PLs of younger rats. The average P/S and ω3/ω6 ratio in older group was higher. The Δ-7 desaturation index (16:0⇒16:1ω7) and Δ-9 desaturation index (18:0⇒18 : 1ω9) were lower in soy group than casein group, while Δ-6 and Δ-5 desaturation index were not affected by dietary protein. The Δ-4 desaturation index (22:4ω6⇒22:5ω6) were higher and, elongation index (20:4ω6⇒22:4ω6) were lower in older group. The ratio of the products of ω3 fatty acid series/precursor of ω3 fatty acid series (C18:3) was significantly higher in older group, which in- dicated that age affected the plasma PUFA metabolism. On the other hand, older rats had higher serum cholesterol level compared with younger rats. Taken together, these changes in fatty acid composition might cause minimal changes in the membrane fluidity induced by the increase serum cholesterol level.

분할 루팅이 허용되는 링의 용량결정문제에 대한 개선된 해법

명영수,김후곤 한국경영과학회 2001 韓國經營科學會誌 Vol.26 No.4

In the ring loading problem with demand splitting, traffic demands are given for each pair of nodes in an undirected ring network and flow is routed in either of the two directions, clockwise and counter-clockwise. The load of a link is the sum of the flows routed through the link and the objective of the problem is to minimize the maximum load on the ring. The fastest algorithm to date is Myung, Kim and Tcha's algorithm that runs is O(n|K|) time where n is the number of nodes and K is the index set of the origin-destination pair of nodes having flow traffic demands. Here we develop an algorithm for the ring loading problem with demand splitting that improves the rerouting step of Myung, Kim and Tcha's algorithm and runs in O(min{n|K|,n^2}) time.

급성 췌장염의 합병이 추정되는 한국형 출혈열 1예

The Korean hemorrhagic fever (KHF) is an acute febrile disease with characteristic of fever, bleeding tendency, and renal failure. There are many complications of Korean hemorrhagic fever such as infection, anemia, internal bleeding, hypopituitarism, respiratory, and neurologic complication. A few cases were reported on acute pancreatitis with hemorrhagic fever abroad, but there was no case about Korean hemorrhagic fever with acute pancreatitis in this country. We experienced a case of Korean hemorrhagic fever associated with suspected acute pancreatits. With review of articles, we report a case of 51 year-old woman with KHF, where acute pancreatitis developed during management, (Korean J Infect Dis 33:376∼379, 2001)

Ongoing Process of the Integration of Kindergarten and Childcare of Korea

Won-young Rhee,Myung-ha Kim 환태평양유아교육연구학회 2019 Asia-Pacific journal of research in early childhoo Vol.13 No.2

The integrating effort, which has been tried in Korea, by the governments of four presidents from 1998 to 2017 has been described in this study. The integration of this study means uniting kindergartens and child care centers under one Ministry. The purpose is to clarify what kinds of problems the divided system could cause young children and what has been done. The analysis of documents such as records of the Blue House (president’s office), the Prime Minister’s Office, Ministries, and research articles in terms of integration was applied. Research found that problems of the divided system of kindergarten and child care center in Korea can be placed in three categories – inefficient administration governance, duplicated budget allocation and its inefficiency, and quality difference of early education and care for the same age group. Integration was started first by the Minister of the Ministry of Gender Equality (MOGE), Chi Eun-hee of the Kim Dae-jung government in 2003. The Roh Moo-hyun government moved child care administration from the Ministry of Health and Welfare (MOHW) to MOGE in 2004, but the Lee Myung-bak government moved it back to the MOHW in 2008. The MOHW vigorously tried to integrate the two institutes under it as soon as they had it back, but failed. The Ministry of Education (MOE) of the Lee Myung-bak government integrated the two national curriculums and named it NURI Curriculum, which was applied to five-year-olds first in 2012 and then to children of three- and four-year-olds in 2013. At present, children attending either kindergartens or child-care-centers benefit from Local Government Financial Assistance Grants. Lastly, the Park Geun-hye government decided to continue the Lee government’s policies, NURI curriculum, and free education with the Local Government Financial Assistance Grant. In addition to this, her government made an integration agenda in 2014, which consisted of 10 projects. 8 out of 10 projects had been achieved by 2015, and two projects, integrating teacher education and certificate system of both institutes, and uniting two institutes into a Ministry are remain to be achieved.

제1형 당뇨병 환자에서 췌도세포 동종이식의 반복시행

양태영,정인경,서인아,오은영,조건영,오승훈,김성주,정재훈,민용기,이명식,이문규,김광원,도영수,주성욱 대한당뇨병학회 2002 Diabetes and Metabolism Journal Vol.24 No.4

연구배경:췌도세포 이식은 시술이 간편하고 안전하기 때문에 반복이식이 가능하여 그 동안 여러 센터에서 반복이식의 성공을 보고한 바 있다. 국내에서도 본 병원을 비롯하여 몇몇 센터에서 췌도세포 이식이 활발히 시도되고 있으나 사람에서의 동종이식 및 동종 이식의 반복시행은 보고된 바 없는 실정이다. 저자 등은 국내 최초로 췌도세포 동종이식을 시행하여, 혈청 C­펩타이드가 증가하고 인슐린 요구량이 감소하였으며, 혈당농도와 당화혈색소의 안정을 보였다. 그러나 이식 70일 후 다시 인슐린 요구량이 증가하고 C­펩타이드가 감소하여 췌도세포 이식을 다시 시행한 바 있다. 2차 이식 후 70여일이 지난 현재 다시 혈청 C­펩타이드가 증가하고, 인슐린 요구량이 더 감소되어 췌도세포 이식에서 반복 시행의 유용성을 보고하는 바이다. 방법:환자는 32세 남자로 17년전 당뇨병 진단 후 인슐린 치료 중이었으며, 3년전 부터는 만성신부전증으로 혈액툭석을 하고있었다. 1999년 12월 25일 신장이식을 하였고 3일 후 췌도이식을 하였으며, 두번째 이식은 70일 후 시행하였다. 췌도분리는 변형된 Recordi방법과 비연속성 자당 농도차(discontinuous density gradient)를 이용하였으며 분리한 췌도는 배양 후 환자의 신장기능이 정상화되고 미생물학 검사에서 음성을 확인한 후 경피경간으로 간문맥을 접근하여 16G 폴리 에틸렌 카테터를 이용하여 간실질에 이식하였다. 결과:1차 췌도이식시 순수분리전 췌도수는 210,000개, 순수분리후 획득한 췌도수는 90,000개, 순도 95%, 세포양 1.0mL 이었고, 2차 췌도이식시 순수분리전 췌도수는 420,000개, 순수분리후 획득한 췌도수는 370,000개, 순도 95%, 세포양 1.5mL 이었다. 1,2차 모두 간문맥을 통해 약 20분에 걸쳐 간실질에 주입하였다. 췌도이식전 인슐린요구량은 75∼75U/일, HbA1e 8∼10%, C­펩타이드 0.6ng/mL 였으며, 1차 췌도이식수 7일째 인슐린 요구량은 40U/일, C­펩타이드 1.5ng/mL, FPS 109mg/mL 였고, 40일 추적관찰 후 인슐린 요구량이 36U/일, C­펩타이드 1.8ng/mL, HbA1e 6.5∼7.0%로 안정되었다. 그러나 이식 50일째부터 인슐린 요구량이 50∼56U/일, C­펩타이드 0.6ng/mL, FPS 130∼200mg/dL로 혈당 조절이 불안정하여 다시 췌도이식을 시행하였다. 2차 이식후 50일이 경과한 현재, 인슐린 요구량은 26U/일, C­펩타이드 1.8ng/mL, FPS 90∼120mg/dL로 다시 안정되었다. 결론:췌도이식은 반복이식이 가능하며, 본 환자의 경우 인슐린요구량 감소, 혈당의 안정화 및 C­펩타이드가 상승하여 이식한 췌도의 기능을 확인할 수 있었고, 향후 스테로이드 등 면역억제가 유지 용량으로 감량되면 인슐린 요구량은 더 감소될 것으로 기대된다. Over the past 20 years, significant advances have been made in human islet transplantation. However, cases of prolonged insulin independence after islet allotransplantation have rarely been reported and over time, a slight, gradual decrease in insulin secretion appears to occur, as suggested by the lower C-peptide. Although preliminary clinical success achieved over the past few years has been considerably higher with whole pancreatic transplant than with isolated islet grafts, both approaches remain experimental. Islet grafts might gain, over time, increasing credibility and might eventually provide an easier alternative in terms of grafting procedures and patient management, as compared with the more "traumatizing" whole-pancreas transplantation. Also, using islet, re-transplantation is possible. But it is not known whether re-transplantation of islet could be suitable for those patients who lost grafted islet function. The aim of the present study was to investigate the benefits of re-transplantation of islet in previously simultaneous islets-kidney transplant (SIK) patient who have lost graft function. Methods : The recipient was a 32 year old male. First islet transplantation was underwent at December 25, 1999. However, the grafted islets lost function after 70 days. So we performed re-transplantation of islets. The isolation of islet was conducted sterilely on a laminarflow hood and isolated by a modified Recordimethod. The islet was injected slowly into the liver via a cannular placed in the potalvein for 20 minutes. Results : Transplanted islets were 90,000 IEq at first islet transplantation, 370,000 IEq at second islet transplantation. The insulin requirement was reduced from 75-85 to 35-40 U/day, the basal C-peptide level was 1.5 ng/mL at 7 days posttransplant Unfortunately, the grafted islets lost function after 70 days. After second transplantation, the insulin requirement was reduced to 26 U/day. Conclusions : Despite the continuous need for exogenous insulin therapy, islet transplantation can prevent wide glucose fluctuations, thus resulting in normalization of glycemic control and improvement in HbAlc, and also, show that islets can be successfully and safely re-transplanted intraportally in patients who have lost previously grafted islet function (J Kor Diabetes Asso 457~466, 2000).

POE Formula를 이용한 모듈러 로봇 좌표독립 모델링

조영진,여인철,김영탁,안영명 중앙대학교 생산공학연구소 1999 생산공학연구소 논문집 Vol.8 No.2

모듈러 로봇은 우주, 건설산업, 원자력발전 및 여러 소비제품 생산분야에서 이미 오래 전부터 채용되어온 모듈러의 개념을 로봇에 적용한 것이다. 미리 규격화된 모듈을 응용작업 대상에 따라 효과적인 로봇구조로 조립하므로써 작업효율이 높은 로봇을 구성할 수 있게 한다. 따라서 모듈러로봇은 미리 정해진 한가지 로봇구조를 가지고 있지 않으며 더불어 관절간의 관계인 링크 파라미터도 정해져 있지 않다. 즉 로봇의 구조가 결정되어야 비로소 링크파라미터가 결정된다. 로봇구조에 따라 링크파마미터가 다르게 되고 모델링도 달라지는데 로봇제어를 위해서 그 때 마다 모델링을 해야 하는 것은 매우 번거롭고 시간과 노력을 요하는 일이다. 따라서 로봇구조에 상관없이 자동적으로 모델링이 가능한 수법의 개발이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 로봇의 모델링 기법으로써 계산량이나 컴팩트한 형태 때문에 최근에 많은 주목을 받고 있는 POE formula를 모듈러 로봇에 적용하여 로봇의 구조가 바뀌더라도 자동으로 모델링이 될 수 있는 방법에 대해 기술한다. Modularity in robotics is an extension of the general concept of modular system design which has been previously used in many areas as diverse as space applications, construction industry, nuclear power plants, and many consumer products. Modularity offers quick assembly of pre-constructed modules into robots which may have different kinematic configuration as given tasks. Thus modular robots have no pre-defined link and joint parameters, i.e., the link lengths, offsets, and joint twists. The kinematic model of a modular robot will be established only when its assembly configuration is determined. Therefore, a configuration independent kinematic and dynamic modeling techniques are necessary for the modular robots. In this paper, the configuration independent kinematic and dynamic modeling techniques for the modular robot is described. Product of exponentials (POE) formula is used for the modeling.

수종의 고정성 보정장치에 따른 유성견의 치주조직 반응

조명훈,윤영주,김광원 대한치과교정학회 2001 대한치과교정학회지 Vol.31 No.1

교정력을 가한 후 각기 다른 재료로 제작된 고정성 보정장치를 적용한 경우에 발생하는 치주조직의 재형성과 치유과정을 조직학적으로 관찰하기 위해 건강한 치주상태를 가진 네 마리의 유성견을 대상으로 최초 교정력이 200gm이 되도록 견인 스프링 (sentalloy closed coil springR, Tomy Co., Japan)을 대상 치아에 결찰하여 1주일 간 교정력을 가한 후, 각각의 실험동물에 3가닥 호선인 0.018인치 DentaflexR(Dentarum Co., Germany), 3가닥 호선인 0.020인치 DentaflexR(Dentarum Co., Germany), 6가닥 호선인 0.0195인치 RespondR(G&H Co., U.S.A.)를, 그리고 자가중합형 레진 접착제인 Superbond C&BR를 고정성 보정장치의 재료를 이용하여 보정장치를 접착한 군과 보정장치를 접착하지 않은 군으로 나누어 3주간 적용 후 희생하여 H-E염색군, M-T염색군으로 나누어 광학현미경으로 관찰하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1.0.0195인치 RespondR를 접착시킨 군은 0.018인치 DentaflexR, 0.020인치 DentaflexR, Superbond C&BR를 접착시킨 군에 비교할 때 압박측에서의 거대세포 침윤 감소와 긴장측에서의 신생골 형성 증가가 매우 두드러지게 나타났으며 치주인대는 형태와 배열에서 대부분 정상적인 소견을 보였다. 2.실험 1군의 모든 실험대상에서 압박측 치조골 내부의 괴사골이 관찰되었고, 압박측과 긴장측 모두에서 치조골 표면의 골양조직 및 sharped 섬유의 형성과 치주인대의 재형성 현상이 나타나는 것이 관찰되었다. 3.실험 2군은 실험 1군에 비교하여 압박측에서 거대세포 침윤이 현저히 감소되었고 치주인대는 거의 정상적인 소견을 보였다. 긴장측에서는 수층의 골침착을 보이며 치주인대 측으로 골양조직과 골아세포가 구상으로 나타나는 활성화 소견을 보였다. 이상의 결과에서 더 여러 가닥이 꼬인 6가닥 호선인 0.0195인치 RespondR(G&H Co., U.S.A.)를 보정장치로 적용한 경우가 다른 재료의 고정성 보정장치보다 더 활발한 신생골주 형성의 활성화 소견이 관찰되었으며 대조군과 유사한 배열과 형태를 보이는 정상적인 치주인대 섬유의 배열양상이 관찰되어 다른 재료들에 비교하여 치주조직의 초기 재형성과정을 더 신속하게 유도하는 것으로 사료된다. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the material for fixed type retainer, allowing physiologic tooth movement. and proper remodeling of periodontal tissue during retention period. The present study was performed to observe the histologic changes of periodontal tissue after application of different types of fixed type retainer after orthodontic tooth movement in young adult dogs. For this study, 4 young adult dogs were used as a experimental animal and experimental group was divided into three groups ; experimental group 1 contained right side maxillary third incisors and canines, experimental group 2 contained contralateral teeth of same animals, and control group contained mandibular premolars. And each dogs were applied the 4 different types of fixed type retainer to experimental group 1. The experimental teeth were ligated on the Sentalloy closed coil springR(Tomy Co., Japan) from maxillary third incisors and canines and applied orthodontic force at initial 200gm-forced during 1 week. All the experimental animals were sacrificed on the 3rd week after the orthodontic teeth movement and then the specimens were taken, fixed in formalin, embeded in parafin, sectioned 6-8μm in thickness and stained with Hematoxylin-Eosin staining, and Masson's trichrome staining method. Examined under the light microscopy. The following results were observed. There were observed that decreased infiltration of giant cells in pressure side and increased the new bone forming in tension side on the specimen of 6-stranded 0.0195' RespondR(G&H Co., U.S.A.) group. Periodontal ligament fibers were much compressed or elongated in 3-stranded 0.018', 0.020' DentaflexR(Dentarum Co., Germany), and Superbond C&BR(Sun Medical Co., Japan) groups. 2. In experimental group 1, necrotic bone inside the alveolar bone of pressure side, forming of the sharpey's fiber in osteoid tissue, and remodeling of the periodontal ligament were observed in all animals. 3. In experimental group 2, it was observed that the amount of bone resorption was equal or decreased in pressure side, and increased new bone forming and significantly decreased Infiltration of giant cell than the experimental group 1. By this results, it considered that 6-stranded RespondR(G&H Co., U.S.A.) wire was the most useful material allowing early periodontal tissue remodeling.

정상인에서 베타3-아드레날린 수용체 유전자의 변이가 복부 비만도 및 지질대사에 미치는 영향

김영선,윤석기,김철희,서교일,김학선,김극배,변동원,유명희 순천향의학연구소 1998 Journal of Soonchunhyang Medical Science Vol.4 No.1

The β₃-adrenergic receptor is expressed in visceral adipose tissue in humans and is thought to contribute to the regulation of the resting metabolic rate and lipolysis. We studied the influence of a mutation in the β₃ -adrenergic receptor gene(Trp64Arg) on body fat distribution, central obesity, lipid metabolism in 65 healthy young male adults. One out of 65 subjects were homozygous (Arg/Arg) for the trp64Arg mutation, 17 subjects were heterozygous (Trp/Arg), and 47 lacked the mutation(Trp/Trp). The body weight, height, body mass index, waist-to-hip ratio were similar between the subjects with- and without the mutation. Total body fat, abdominal fat amount, body fat distribution, serum total- and HDL-cholesterol, triglyceride, glucose, and insulin concentrations were also not different according to the presence or absence of the mutation. These results suggested that Trp64Arg mutation in β₃-adrenergic receptor gene is not a major contributing factor for central obesity or change in lipid metabolism in Korean young adults.
