Objectives: To examine any potential relationships between the types of alopecia and the facial heat distribution in patients with alopecia Methods: 183 patients with alopecia participated in this study to provide facial heat distribution measured by the Infrared Thermography Scanner (ITS, Nec San-ei Instruments Ltd, Japan). The thermography scan was used in a light-and heat-protected room after 20 minutes’of resting period. 1.5m of distance maintained between the patients and ITS. Results: Specificity in the type of facial heat distribution was found as follow. 1. Types of facial heat distribution can be classified as T-type and diffused patterns. 2. There was a significant difference in the pattern of facial heat distribution among different types of alopecia (p=0.002): facial heat distribution appeared T-type in Androgenic Alopecia, Alopecia Areata, and Telogen Effluvium (71.3%, 85.7%, 70.4%), whereas diffused pattern was dominant in Seborrheic Alopecia(55.6%). 3. There was a significant difference in the pattern of facialheat distribution between men and women (p<0.001): While the T-type and diffused type were equally appeared in men (50.6%: 49.4%), T-type was dominant in women (88.0% vs. 12.0%). Conclusions: We conclude that the pattern of facial heat distribution differs depends on the types of alopecia and gender. These differences may provide useful information for the diagnosis and clinical therapy for this population.

[ $MgAl_2O_4$ ] 막은 MgO 보호막 보다 단단하며 수분 흡착 오염 문제에 상당히 강한 특성을 가진다. 본 연구에서 AC-PDP 의 유전체보호막으로 사용되는 MgO 보호막의 특성을 개선하기 위해 $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ 이중층 보호막을 제작하여 특성을 조사하였다. 전자빔 증착기를 사용하여 Cu 기판에 MgO 와 $MgAl_2O_4$을 각각 $1000\AA$ 두께로 증착, $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ 을 $200/800\AA$ 두께로 적층 증착 후, 이온빔에 의한 충전현상을 제거하기 위해 Al 을 $1000\AA$ 두께로 증착하였다. 집속 이온빔 (focused ion beam: FIB) 장치를 이용하여 10 kV 에서 14 kV 까지 이온빔 에너지에 따라 MgO는 $0.364{\sim}0.449$ 값의 스퍼터링 수율에서 $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ 을 적층함으로 $24{\sim}30 %$ 낮아진 $0.244{\sim}0.357$ 값의 스퍼터링 수율이 측정되었으며, $MgAl_2O_4$는 가장 낮은 $0.088{\sim}0.109$ 값의 스퍼터링 수율이 측정되었다. g-집속이온빔 (g-FIB) 장치를 이용하여 $Ne^+$ 이온 에너지를 50 V 에서 200 V 까지 변화시켜 $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ 와 MgO 는 $0.09{\sim}0.12$의 비슷한 이차 전자방출 계수를 측정하였다.

It is known that $MgAl_2O_4$ has higher resistance to moisture than MgO, in humid ambient MgO is chemically unstable. It reacts very easily with moisture in the air. In this study, the characteristic of $MgAl_2O_4$ and $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ layers as dielectric protection layers for AC- PDP (Plasma Display Panel) have been investigated and analysed in comparison for conventional MgO layers. MgO and $MgAl_2O_4$ films both with a thickness of $1000\AA$ and $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ film with a thickness of $200/800\AA$ were grown on the Cu substrates using the electron beam evaporation. $1000\AA$ thick aluminium layers were deposited on the protective layers in order to avoid the charging effect of $Ga^+$ ion beam while the focused ion beam(FIB) is being used. We obtained sputtering yieds for the MgO, $MgAl_2O_4$ and $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ films using the FIB system. $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ protective layers have been found th show $24{\sim}30%$ lower sputtering yield values from 0.244 up to 0.357 than MgO layers with the values from 0.364 up to 0.449 for irradiated $Ga^+$ ion beam with energies ranged from 10 kV to 14 kV. And $MgAl_2O_4$ layers have been found to show lowest sputtering yield values from 0.88 up to 0.109. Secondary electron emission coefficient(g) using the ${\gamma}$- FIB. $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ and MgO have been found to have similar g values from 0.09 up to 0.12 for indicated $Ne^+$ ion with energies ranged from 50 V to 200 V. Observed images for the surfaces of MgO and $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ protective layers, after discharge degradation process for 72 hours by SEM and AFM. It is found that $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ protective layer has superior hardness and degradation resistance properties to MgO protective layer.

Objectives: TuRo, defined as a dance therapy applying the meridian Qi system into the dancing movements, may have effects on ameliorating the psychological symptoms that often appear in adolescent students in a stressful situation. The Objective of the present study was to examine whether TuRo training relieves the psychological symptoms in adolescent female students. Methods: Symptom Check List-90-Revision (SCL-90-R), a 5 point Likert scale, consisted of 90 items that represent psychological symptoms, were used to measure the psychological health status in healthy adolescent female. Twenty two adolescent female students were trained TuRo dancing for two months while 29 in control group were trained mimicked movements without the concept of Qi for the same period. Changes in Somatization, Obsessive-Compulsive behaviors, Interpersonal Sensitivity, Depression, Anxiety, Hostility, Phobic Anxiety, Parinoid Ideation and Psychotic symptoms by the two months of training were compared between TuRo and control groups using SCL-9Q-R. Results: Among the nine-categorized psychological symptoms, the somatization and hostility were significantly reduced in TuRo group (p<O.01, p<0.05, respectively). Obsessive-Compulsive symptoms, Interpersonal Sensitivity, Phobic Anxiety, Hostility, Psychoticism were significantly reduced by two months of training (p<0.05, p<O.Ol, p<0.05, p<O.Ol, p<O.01), however, group differences were not detected. Conclusions: Symptoms of somatization and hostility were significantly reduced by TuRo training. Our finding indicates that TuRo training may have therapeutic effects on the psychological symptoms in teen age girls who may suffer stress-related symptoms.

The present study determined the estimated dietary fiber (DF) intake per capita of Korean from 1991 to 2001 and analyzed the major food sources of dietary fiber for Korean using the data on per capita consumption of each food reported in the Korean National (Health and) Nutrition Survey Reports and the recently established DF database by the Korean Nutrition Society. The estimated mean daily DF intakes of Korean during the last 11 years $(1991{\sim}2001)$ were in the range of $19.25{\sim}21.22\;g\;or\;9.97{\sim}11.99\;g/1,000\;kcal$ with a small range of fluctuations. As of 2001, average DF intake per capita of Korean was estimated as 20.92 g or 10.59 g/1,000 kcal. The average DF intake level was under the Adequate Intake for DF (12 g per 1,000 kcal) of the Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs) for Koreans established in 2005. The level of DF intake was relatively lower in small city residents compared to the large city or rural area. The top two major food group sources of DF for Korean were vegetables and cereals, in addition, legumes, fruits, seaweeds and seasonings were included among top five food groups. The ratio of DF intake from fruits was gradually increased but the ratio from legumes was steadily decreased during the last 11 years. The mostly contributed single foods for DF intakes of Korean were Kimchi and rice regardless of year and area. Percentage of DF intake from top ten single foods was continuously decreased from 65% in 1991 to 51 % in 2001. The results of this study revealed that DF intakes of Korean as of 2001 is insufficient compared to the Adequate Intake for DF for Korean and the source of fiber in Korean diet has been more various. Therefore the beneficial health effects of DF and the increased consumption of DF from a variety of food sources should be continuously emphasized through the nutritional education.

The purpose of this study was to help elementary teachers to design systems for small group study to improve the efficiency of both teaching and learning in science education. This was done by examining how teachers form and manage a small group study, and by observing students' perceptions regarding small group study. For this study, an in-depth interview was conducted with 8 elementary teachers and 8 sixth grade elementary students chosen according to their levels of class participation and scientific achievement. The results showed that although elementary teachers preferred a group of 4 students, 6 students were randomly picked to form a group due to the physical aspects of the educational environment in most of the cases examined. It was also found that when the small group was composed of students with different personalities rather than according to their level of achievement, this better encouraged research activities and fostered scientific attitudes as compared to educating solely for the transference of scientific knowledge. On the elementary students' part, a change of perception on their new role and skills of interaction was also required. Elementary students preferred to compose small groups so that they resembled a group of close friends, and from their perspective, small group study was useful, interesting, time efficient, and helpful to each other in studying science.

Pulse is one of the basic diagnostic information of TKM(Traditional Korean Medicine). To quantify and standardize pulse diagnosis, we had collected an amount of clinical data from May 2005 by using newly developed pulse analyzer. But there were many noises in pulse wave according to measuring method, environment, operator and condition of patient. So some data can’t be included for analyzing diagnosis. To reduce noises from measuring pulse and to collect reliable pulse wave data, we made the process map of measuring method and applied six sigma project. With this we can improved the method of measuring pulse wave in collecting clinical data. The project follows a disciplined process of five macro phases: define, measure, analyze, improve and control (DMAIC). A process map and C-E diagram are used to identify process input and output variables. The major input variables are selected by using C&E matrix, and process map is developed by analyzing input variables. And the optimum process conditions are going to be controled to avoid in increasing loss of collecting pulse wave data.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the interaction patterns between teachers and students appeared in sixth grade elementary science lessons. To this end, we set research questions as what are the types of SPS (Social Participation Structure) between teachers and students in the class. Eighteen elementary science lessons were observed. Data were collected by video recordings and observation method. The result showed that the types of SPS were classified into nine. 1) A teacher initiates the whole students into interaction with him. 2) The whole students keep silent or carry out specific activities under the teacher's direction. 3) A teacher initiates some students into interaction. 4) A teacher names specific students to read a text. 5) A teacher initiates the whole students into group interactions. 6) Students interact with each other irrespective of the teacher's intention. 7) Students initiate a teacher into interactions with them. 8) A teacher intervenes during the students' activities and this intervention, in turn, produces interactions between the teacher and the students. 9) A teacher directs the whole class to read a learning goal or a learning material. This study shows that SPS-1 and SPS-3 are the most frequently observed interaction patterns in the elementary science lessons.

배경 : 체질의학에서 진단의 중요성에도 불구하고 팔체질의학의 맥진의 신뢰성에 대한 과거 연구가 거의 없었다. 목적 : 본 예비연구는 팔체질의학의 맥진에 대한 진단자 간의 신뢰성 및 진단자 내의 신뢰성을 검사하기 위함이다. 재료 및 방법 : 팔체질의학을 이용한 진료 경력이 3년 내지 5년 되는 한의사 두 명이 실험에 참여하였다. 31명의 건강한 대학생들의 팔체질을 맥진을 통해 진단하고 그 결과를 확신도와 함께 각각 기록하도록 하였으며 이 중 5명은 각각 진단자로부터 3회씩 진단을 받도록 하였다. 그 결과를 분석하여 진단자 간의 신뢰성과 진단자 내의 신뢰성을 검사하였다. 아울러 진단에 대한 확신도와 결과와의 상관성이 있는지도 조사하였다. 대상자와 진단자는 서로를 알 수 없도록 가리개를 하고 실험을 진행하였다. 결과 : 진단자 간의 일치도는 35.7%였으며 카파 계수는 0.232로 보통 이하 수준인 것으로 나타났다. 진단자 내 일치도는 진단자 별로 각각 89%, 66.83%로 나타났다. 다만 두 진단자 사이의 결과가 일치하는 경우 불일치하는 경우보다 진단자의 확신도가 높은 것으로 드러났다 결론 : 본 연구에서는 팔체질의학의 맥진의 진단자 간, 진단자 내의 신뢰성이 비교적 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 이는 진단의 변수가 많고 진단자의 숙련도나 대표성의 문제 등 여러 가지 요소들로 인한 결과로 파악된다. 팔체질의학의 진단자 간, 진단자 내의 신뢰성에 대한 향후 연구가 절실히 요구된다.
