목적 : 본 연구는 직업재활에 참여하고 있는 발달장애인의 시간사용을 확인하고, 시간사용에 따른 작업균 형을 제시하고자 한다. 연구방법 : 직업재활 프로그램에 참여하고 있는 발달장애인 106명에게 시간사용과 작업균형을 조사하기 위하여 Occupational Questionnaire를 사용하였다. 자료는 기술통계와 ANOVA을 실시하여 분석하였다. 결과 : 발달장애인은 동일 연령 취업자보다 일상생활의 작업영역에서 일상생활수행 시간이 적고, 여가활동 시간과 수면 시간이 많은 것을 알 수 있었다. 작업유형은 일상활동 유형 5.7%, 여가과다 유형 27.4%, 노동과다 유형 36.8%, 작업균형 유형 30.2%였다. 작업유형과 일상생활의 작업영역은 밀접한 연관을 가 지고 있으며, 작업균형 유형일수록 작업영역에 긍정적인 영향을 미쳤다. 결론 : 직업재활에 참여하고 있는 발달장애인은 시간사용 조율과 각 작업영역간의 작업균형을 맞출 수 있다. 추후, 발달장애인에 대한 접근이나 중재에 작업균형을 고려한 체계화된 지원이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

풍력발전단지는 초기 투자비용이 높고 설치 후 이동이 용이하지 못하기 때문에 풍력발전단지 설계 과정에서 해당 지역의 생 산 가능 자원량을 정확히 예측하는 것이 필수적이다. 많은 연구자들이 풍력에너지 발전량을 예측하기 위해 수치기상예보(Numerical Weather Prediction, NWP) 방법으로부터 얻은 장기간 기상데이터를 활용한다. 하지만 NWP 방법은 국지적 지형지물과 표면조도가 풍 황에 미치는 영향을 충분히 고려하지 못한다는 한계점이 존재하여 대부분의 육상풍력발전단지가 지형이 복잡한 산간지역에 설치되어 있는 한국에서 활용하기에 적합하지 않다. 이에 NWP 방법을 통해 얻어진 장기간 기상데이터를 전산유체역학(Computational Fluid Dynamics, CFD)의 경계조건으로 활용하여 지형지물과 표면조도의 영향을 고려하여 축소함으로써 공간해상도를 100m 급으로 고해상 도화 하였다.

Laos People’s Democratic Republic (Laos) is a country selected by Korea’s priority foreign policy – New Southern Policy. It is also one of Korea’s 24 priority partner countries. The objective of this study was to understand the current status of rice industry and recommendations for improving rice productivity in Laos based on “Agriculture Development Strategy to 2025 and Vision to the Year 2030” published by the Lao government. In Laos, major crops are rice, vegetables, maize, coffee, cassava, sugar cane, and others. Laos achieved rice self-sufficiency in 1999. Its rice production reached up to 3,580,000 tons in 2018. It aims to harvest a total of 5 million tons of paddy rice with a target yield of approx. 1.5 million tons in 2025. Rice consumption per capita totals 160 kg/year in Laos, the highest in the world. The national nutrient program sets its targets as follows: of 2,600 kcal, a recommended daily calorie intake for adults, it aims to lower rice and starch, while increasing calories from meat, vegetables, fat, and so on. This shows that the rice policy is formulated with consideration of improving health of people in Laos as well as boosting rice exports. Based on the agricultural policy and strategy of Laos, it is viewed that the rice industry in Laos can advance further and produce results only when rice industry is linked to the following areas: economic development, farm size expansion, higher productivity through novel varieties and cultivation technologies, scaling-up of agricultural mechanization, greater efficiency in processing, and infrastructure expansions such as roads and reservoirs. If an ODA (Official Development Assistance) project takes a tailored approach considering its actor-specific characters and tasks, it is believed that the project can contribute to the goal of securing sustainability for the rice industry.

Background: Individuals with calf muscle shortening may have decreased dynamic balance. Objects: This study aimed to investigate the effect of mobilization with movement (MWM) and myofascial release (MFR) on kinematic changes in dynamic balance in individuals with calf muscle shortening. Methods: Thirteen participants were randomly assigned to the MWM or the mobilization with movement added myofascial release (MWM-MFR) group. The MWM group received treatment with only MWM, whereas the MWM-MFR group was treated with MWM and MFR. Pre- and post-intervention passive range of motion (PROM), maximum reaching lengths, and modified star excursion balance test (MSEBT) results were compared for all participants. Wilcoxon signed-rank test and Mann-Whitney U test were used for statistical analysis. Results: The results showed significant within-group differences in ankle PROM, but no significant between-group differences. The maximum reaching length in the MWM-MFR group in the posterolateral direction was significantly different before and after the intervention (p = 0.005). This group also showed significantly reduced ankle abduction in MSEBT during the posteromedial direction section 3 (p = 0.007) and posterolateral direction section 5 (p = 0.049) compared with the MWM group. Conclusion: Combined MWM and MFR intervention improves ankle stability in the coronal plane during the posteromedial and posterolateral forward mo

소변검사 전 냉/해동 반복과 해동 과정에 따라 대표적인 임상 화학검사 측정값의 변화를 확인 함으로써 소변검사의 안정성과 품질 개선방안을 모색하고자 하였다. 조사 대상자는 모두 건강한 남성 10명이었으며 이들의 소변 검체를 이용하여 냉/해동 안정성(freeze and thaw stability) 실험을 진행하였다. Micro-albumin과 Amylase의 경우 시간이 경과 됨에 따라 37℃에서 는 통계적 유의성은 없었으나, 42℃와 60℃에서는 시간의 경과에 따른 결과가 통계적으로 유의한 변동 이 있었고, BUN, Creatinine, Uric acid와 Glucose에서는 통계적으로 유의한 변동이 있었다. Long term의 안정성 결과, 7일이 지난 후에는 Glucose의 변이는 증가하였고, 60℃에서는 Amylase가 감 소하는 양상을 보였다. Glucose와 Amylase의 경우 시간의 경과에 따른 결과가 통계적으로 유의한 변동 이 있었다. 신뢰성 있는 검사결과를 얻기 위해서는 소변 시료의 채취, 보관 및 저장 등을 비롯한 요검사 의 정확한 표준화가 필요하며 생체 물질별 안정성 확보를 위한 조건들의 체계적 연구가 필요하다.

In September and October 2020, combined acoustic and trawl surveys were conducted in the northwestern sea of Jeju Island. In the survey area, a region, so called Jeju region, was designated to esimate the biomass of chub mackerel and jack mackerel using a trawl survey method and frequency difference method. In the September survey, the weight ratios of jack mackerel and chub mackerel to the total catch were 24.6% and 2.8%, respectively, and in the October survey, those ratios were 24.9% and 20.7%, which were used to calculate their biomass (trawl survey). Using the frequency difference range (–8 to –3dB) corresponding to two species in 120 and 200 kHz, their biomass was estimated (frequency difference method). As a result, the biomass of two species from the trawl method was 3252.3 tons in September and 5777.0 tons in October. The estimated biomass by the frequency difference method was 4926.6 tons in September and 7521.5 tons in October. It was the first trial to estimate the biomass of two species using the trawl and frequency differencing methods in South Korea although there were some differences between two methods. In addition, horizontal distributions of acoustic backscattering strength over the entire survey area were mapped.

Using environmental DNA (eDNA) in the fisheries and oceanography fields, research on the diversity of biological species, the presence or absence of specific species and quantitative evaluation of species has considerably been performed. Up to date, no study on eDNA has been tried in the area of fisheries acoustics in Korea. In this study, the biomass of a dominant species in the northwestern waters of Jeju Island was examined using 1) the catch ratio of the species from trawl survey results and 2) the ranking ratio of the species from the eDNA results. The dominant species was Zoarces gillii, and its trawl catch ratio was 68.2% and its eDNA ratio was 81.3%. The Zoarces gillii biomass from the two methods was 7199.4 tons (trawl) and 8584.6 tons (eDNA), respectively. The mean and standard deviation of the acoustic backscattering strength values (120 kHz) from the entire survey area were 135.5 and 157.7 m 2 /nm 2 , respectively. The strongest echo signal occurred at latitude 34° and longitude 126°15’ (northwest of Jeju Island). High echo signals were observed in a specific oceanographic feature (salinity range of 32-33 psu and the water temperature range of 19-20℃). This study was a pilot study on evaluating quantitatively aquatic resources by applying the eDNA technique into acoustic-trawl survey method. Points to be considered for high-quality quantitative estimation using the eDNA to fisheries acosutics were discussed.

Background: Lower back pain (LBP) is a major cause of disability and a common musculoskeletal disorder encountered at some point in life. Dysfunction of the lumbar vertebrae has been associated with decreased flexibility of the hamstrings, which exhibited a strong positive correlation with LBP. Hamstring tension affects lumbar pelvic rhythm. We aimed to activate pelvic stability with compression by Active Therapeutic Movement (ATM), muscle energy technique (MET) was applied to increase the flexibility of the hamstring. Objects: In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of MET with ATM and general MET were applied to the hamstring of adults, who were in their twenties with nor without LBP, on their pelvic inclination and the length of their hamstring. Methods: A total of 32 subjects were briefed about the purpose of this study and agreed to participate voluntarily. Before the experiment, all subjects were pre-examined, and they were divided into an LBP group and a no lower back pain group accordingly. Thereafter, all subjects participated in both in a crossover manner. After at least one week, they switched to another group and participated in the same experiment. Results: The study results revealed that both groups demonstrated significant results in the modified active knee extension test (p < 0.01) and the sit and reach test (p < 0.01) performed to assess the hamstring flexibility; an interaction (p < 0.05) was noted. Moreover, a more significant difference was observed between the MET with ATM and the general MET. Although significant results were obtained for the pelvic inclination (p < 0.01), interaction was not noted. Conclusion: Conclusively, in this study, when the MET with ATM was applied to the two groups, there was a significant difference compared to the general MET for hamstring flexibility, but it was confirmed that there was no significant difference for the pelvic inclination.

본 연구에서는 폐기물 배출해역의 퇴적물이 해양생물에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위해 2016~2019년 3개 배출해역; 동해병, 서해 병, 동해정 해역의 9개 정점에서 채취한 퇴적물 시료들을 대상으로 국내 해양폐기물공정시험기준에 의거하여 저서성단각류(Monocorophium acherusicum)와 발광박테리아(Vibrio fischeri)를 이용한 독성시험을 수행하였다. 시험결과, 상대평균생존율(저서성단각류)과 상대발광저해율 (발광박테리아)이 각각 30 % 이하로서 ‘독성없음’으로 판정되었으나, t검정을 이용한 독성 평가 결과에서는 총 12개(2016년 6개, 2017년 1개, 2018년 1개, 2019년 4개)의 저서성단각류 시료에서 대조구와 유의한 차이를 나타내었다(p<0.05). 저서성단각류의 독성원인 탐색을 위해 퇴 적물 내 8종 중금속 함량(Cr, As, Ni, Cd, Cu, Pb, Zn, Hg)과 저서성단각류 상대평균생존율의 단순선형회귀분석을 수행한 결과, Cr의 저서성 단각류 독성 기여도가 가장 높았다(p=0.000, R2=0.355). 또한, 매년 독성영향이 가장 높은 정점(DB-85)의 시료에서 Cr이 여전히 가장 높은 농 도로 검출되었으며, 해양환경기준을 매년 초과하였다. 해양폐기물공정시험기준의 생태독성판정 기준 적용 시 ‘독성없음’으로 평가되는 퇴 적물 오염도가 대조구와의 통계적 유의성 검정, 독성원인확인 평가를 적용할 경우 독성영향을 수용 가능한 수준으로 판단하기 어려우므로 향후 종민감도분포곡선을 활용한 정량적 위해성 평가를 통한 준거치를 도출하여 생태독성 영향 판단 기준의 재설정을 고려할 필요가 있다.

To investigate the effects of ozonated water concentration and soaking time on adventitious root formation of willow, we studied the efficiency of root cuttings in the revegetation technology of biological engineering of willows. The ozonated water concentrations were used for 5 minutes and 2 hours at 1, 5, 10, 15, 20 ppm by soaking method and then the shoot characteristics were observed. The number and length of adventitious roots were determined. The results indicated that 20 ppm of ozonated water for 2 hours and 1 ppm of ozonated water for 5 minutes resulted in leaves turned wither away and no adventitious root production. Considering the appearance, number and length of the adventitious root, soaking willow cuttings into the ozonated water with dissolved ozone concentration, 5 ppm for 2 hours and 10-15 ppm for 5 minutes were suitable for generating adventitious roots.
