목적 : 본 연구는 인지 중재 비율을 조절한 점진적 관찰감소 동작관찰훈련과 기존의 동작관찰훈련에 대한 상지기능 변화를 비교하여 효율적인 중재 방법을 알아보고자 실시하였다. 연구방법 : 14명의 만성 뇌졸중 환자를 대상으로 7명의 실험군은 점진적 관찰감소 동작관찰훈련을, 7명의 대조군은 기존의 동작관찰훈련을 주 3회, 30분씩, 4주간 실시하였고 각 군은 기존에 실시하던 전통적 작업치료 및 물리치료 역시 시행하였다. 상지 운동기능의 사전, 사후 평가는 울프운동기능검사(Wolf Motor Function Test; WMFT), 상지기능장애 설문지(Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand; DASH), 상자와 나무토막 검사(Box and Block Test; BBT)를 사용하였고, 각 군의 중재 전과 후의 차이는 윌콕슨 부호 순위검정(Wilcoxon signed-ranks test), 두 군 간의 중재 후 효과 비교는 맨 휘트니검정(Mann-Whitney U test)을 사용하여 분석하였다. 결과 : 점진적 관찰감소 동작관찰훈련군과 기존의 동작관찰훈련군은 모두 WMFT, DASH, BBT에서 통계적으로 유의한 변화가 있었다(p<.05). 점진적 관찰감소 동작관찰훈련군과 기존의 동작관찰훈련군의 상지기능 변화량 비교에서는 WMFT의 소요시간과 DASH의 점수에서 점진적 관찰감소 동작관찰훈련군이 더 많은 변화 가 있었으며 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었다(p<.05). 결론 : 본 연구 결과 중재기간에 따라 인지 중재 비율을 고려한 점진적 관찰감소 동작관찰훈련이 기존의 동작관찰훈련보다 상지기능 향상에 효과적이었다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 만성 뇌졸중 환자의 상지기능 향상을 위한 동작관찰훈련의 중재 시 인지비율을 고려한 중재 전략이 필요하다.

International Maritime Organization (IMO) has established standards for ship manoeuvrability and applied these standards for vessels over 100 meters in length that built since 2004 (IMO, resolution MSC.137[76]). These standards are no exception to fishing vessels. In this study we carried out a manoeuvring simulation of the new model ship (Stern trawler) of fisheries training ship of Pukyong National University based on Kijima's empirical formula. The formula takes into account of the effect of stern shape or does not take into account of the effect of stern shape. Also we checked whether the simulation results of turning motion of model ship meet IMO manoeuvrability criteria and then compared trajectories between the simulation results of model ship and the results of real sea trial test of the existing ship. In conclusion, Kijima's empirical formulas can estimate the manoeuvrability of fishing vessels at design stage approximately, it needs more parameters of fishing vessel own in case of expressing the manoeuvrability of fishing vessel accurately.

본 연구는 흑산도 산림유전자원보호구역을 대상으로 산림식생구조를 파악하고자 수행하였으며, 2017년 6월부터 2017년 8월까지 총 59개 조사구에서 식생조사를 실시하였다. Z-M 식물사회학적 방법으로 산림식생 유형을 분류하고 식생단위별 구성종의 중요치와 종다양도를 분석하였다. 산림식생유형분류 결과 최상위 단위에서 동백나무군락군으로 분류되었으며, 군락단위에서는 황칠나무군락(식생단위 1), 소사나무군락, 동백나무전형군락(식생단위 6)의 3개 군락으로 분류되었다. 소사나무군락은 회양목군(식생단위 2), 진달래군(식생단위 3), 왕머루군(식생단위 4), 소사나무전형군 (식생단위 5)의 4개 소군으로 분류되었다. 식생단위별 평균상대우점치 분석 결과 식생단위 1은 붉가시나무, 식생단위 2는 소사나무, 식생단위 3은 곰솔, 식생단위 4는 소나무, 식생단위 5와 6은 구실잣밤나무가 각각 우점치가 가장 높게 나타났다. 종다양도 분석결과 식생단위 2의 종풍부도, 종다양도, 종균재도가 가장 높았으며, 종우점도는 식생단위 6이 가장 높았다. 흑산도 산림유전자원보호구역의 6개 식생단위와 12개 종군에 대한 군집생태학적 접근의 관리방안이 필요할 것으로 판단되었다.

낙동강 유역에 조성된 신규습지에서 서식환경에 대한 어류의 분포 특성을 평가하고, 이를 기반으로 한 관리방안 도출을 위해 42개 습지에서 환경요인의 측정과 어류 조사를 시행하였다. 조사 기간 동안 총 30종의 어류가 출현하였으며, 이 중에서 배스(Micropterus salmoides)와 블루길(Lepomis macrochirus)과 같은 외래어종의 비율이 상대적으로 높았다. 특히, 밀어(Rhinogobius brunneus)나 끄리(Opsariichthys uncirostris amurensis), 피라미(Zacco platypus) 등의 어류는 흐름이 있는 환경을 선호하기 때문에 배스가 우점하는 습지(정체수역)에서 상대적으로 낮은 밀도를 가지는 것으로 사료된다. SOM (Self-Organizing Map)을 활용한 패턴분석 결과, 각 습지의 서식환경 특성에 따라 어류 종의 출현빈도가 상이한 것으로 분석되었다. 어류 종의 분포는 각 습지의 수심 변화와 수생식물 피도에 민감하게 영향 받는 것으로 나타났으며, 수온이나 pH, 용존산소 등의 이화학적 요인 변화에 대한 영향은 적었다. 특히 수생식물의 피도는 어류의 종다양성이나 밀도에 강한 영향을 주는 것으로 분석되었으며, 수변식생이 부족한 습지에서는 어류가 적은 풍부도와 다양성을 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구 결과를 기반으로 평가할 때 어류 등의 생물다양성 증진을 위해 호안사면의 높은 인공성이나 수변식생의 부족한 습지 등은 개선이 필요할 것으로 사료되며, 건강성 확보를 위한 지속가능한 관리방안이 마련되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.

The Breakfast Club of the Seoul Metropolitan Government aims to provide breakfast and nutrition education to students who require need breakfast. This study was conducted to explore the experience of changes at the individual and environmental levels among high-school participants of the Breakfast Club. The qualitative data were collected from 20 high school students (10 boys and 10 girls) via a focus group interview at each school. Experienced improvement and suggested future tasks from the experience of the Breakfast Club were categorized at three levels (themes): personal factors, school environmental factors, and home environmental factors. The health belief, knowledege, awareness, and perception of effects of the participants showed improvement but the personal barriers need to be improved. At the school level, peer influence and school food policies were improved but some aspects of availability and accessibility for breakfast, and social norms need to be improved. The factors related to the home environment, such as family influence, and availability and accessibility for breakfast were better after the program. The Breakfast Club changed not only personal behaviors but also the family and school environments.

F-containing TiO2 nanopowders are synthesized using simple wet processes (precipitation-based and hydrothermal) from ammonium hexafluorotitanate (AHFT, (NH4)2TiF6) as a precursor to apply as a photocatalyst for the degradation of rhodamine B (RhB). The surface properties of the prepared samples are evaluated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results confirm that the synthesized anatase TiO2 has sphere-like shapes, with numerous small nanoparticles containing fluorine on the surface. The photocatalytic activity of F-containing TiO2 compared with F-free TiO2 is characterized by measuring the degradation of RhB using a xenon lamp. The photocatalytic degradation of F-containing TiO2 exhibits improved photocatalytic activity, based on the positive effects of adsorbed F ions on the surface.

This study was conducted in 2014 in the Gangjin area of Jeonnam province for the purpose of confirming the potential of Kenaf as an alternative feed crop of rice. The weather and soil conditions were favorable and there was no adverse effect on the growth of Kenaf. The amount of seeding was given at 10 kg, 15 kg and 20 kg. As the seeding volume increased, plant height and dry matter yield increased, and stem diameter and number of nodes decreased. The highest growth rate was observed between 75 and 90 days from the date of planting(p<0.05). As the growth progressed, stem rate increased and leaf rate decreased(p<0.05). Increased amount of seeding and growth resulted in decreased CP and TDN and increased ADF and NDF, which resulted in the decreased economic value of Kenaf as a feed crop. The result of increasing the use of organic fertilizer to 20 kg and 30 kg was similar to increasing the amount of seeding. As organic fertilizer usage increased, dry matter yield and growth rate improved(p<0.05).

This study was conducted to investigate whether dietary levels of copra and palm meals affect the growth performance, carcass characteristics, and meat properties of Hanwoo steers. Eighty-one Hanwoo steers were randomly assigned to one of three dietary groups: T1 (conventional level of palm and copra meals), T2 (20% copra meal and 15% palm meal), and T3 (30% copra meal and 20% palm meal). During the growing and early fattening periods, the average daily gains and formula feed intakes of T2 and T3 were higher than that of T1; however, those differences were not statistically significant. The dietary levels of copra and palm meals did not affect carcass weight, back fat thickness, and rib-eye areas. Marbling scores and meat quality grades were lower in T3 than in T1 and T2; however, those differences were not statistically significant. Meat color, fat color, texture, and maturity were similar among the treatment groups. In addition, dietary levels of copra and palm meals did not affect the chemical and fatty acid composition of longissimus dorsi muscles in Hanwoo steers. Thus, the present results indicate that high supplementation levels of copra and palm meals do not negatively affect the growth performance, carcass characteristics, and meat properties of Hanwoo steers.

This study aimed to produce high-quality blastocysts and establish appropriate microinjection conditions for the introduction of target gene. First, we identified embryo development to the blastocyst stage after microinjection using the CRISPR/Cas9 system on the Cas9 protein or mRNA. As a result, we confirmed that blastocyst development in the Cas9 mRNA injected group significantly increased when compared to the Cas9 protein injected group (p<0.05). However, the blastocyst gene targeting rate increased in the Cas9 protein injected group when compared to the Cas9 mRNA injected group (p<0.05). Next, we treated the injection medium with 10 μg/ml of cytochalasin B (CB), and the microinjected embryos were cultured in CR1-aa medium supplemented with 0.1 μM of melatonin (Mela). Consequently, the blastocyst formation rate significantly increased in the CB treated group (p<0.05). After microinjecting embryos with the CB treated injection medium, we investigated blastocyst formation and quality via Mela treatment. Consequently, the Mela treated group demonstrated significantly increased blastocyst formation rates when compared to the non-treated group (p<0.05). Furthermore, immunofluorescence assay using RAD51 (DNA repair detection protein) and H2AX139ph (DNA damage detection protein) showed an increase in RAD51 positive cells in Mela treated embryos. Therefore, we verified the improvement in knock-in efficiency in microinjected bovine embryos using Cas9 protein. These results also demonstrated that the positive effect of the CB and Mela treatments improved the embryonic developmental competence and blastocyst qualities in genetically-edited bovine embryos.

The reproduction characteristics of hagfish Eptatretus burgeri were examined using individuals caught in the South Sea of Korea. The spawning season and size at minimum sexual maturity of this species were characterized based on a gonad-somatic index (GSI) and monthly variation egg size (long axis). From monthly variation of GSI, the spawning season was estimated to be from August to September. Developing eggs larger than 10 mm were found in March, and the largest egg size was found in July. The first spawning length was 34.2 cm TL. Batch fecundity ranged from 13 to 117 eggs for hagfish sized from 34.2 cm TL to 77.0 cm TL, respectively, and increased linearly with total length.
