Objectives:　The purpose of this study is to evaluate the development of the near poor Families' Children via learning disability indices, frontal executive function. Methods: Seventeen children (10 boys, 7 girls, 6.6-11.9 years) from the near poor Families' were enrolled in this study. Children were evaluated for a learning disability and frontal executive function. Results: In Learning disability indices, 3 children showed low scores in subscales and 2 children showed low scores in learning quotient. In Frontal executive function, 3 children showed low scores in CCTT (Children's Color Trails Test) and 11children showed low scores in STROOP (Stroop Color and Word Test). Conclusions: Intensive management, educational programs, and additional neuropsychological tests will be needed in children with low learning scores.

We report photometric features of the HB, MSTO, and SGB for a set of metal-poor Galactic globular clusters on the near-IR CMDs. The magnitude and color of the MSTO and SGB are measured on the fiducial normal points of the CMDs by applying a polynomial fit. The near-IR luminosity functions of horizontal branch stars in the classical second parameter pair M3 and M13 indicate that HB stars in M13 are dominated by hot stars that are rotatively faint in the infrared, whereas HB stars in M3 are brighter than those in M13. The luminosity functions of HB stars in the observed bulge clusters, except for NGC 6717, show a trend that the fainter hot HB stars are dominated in the relatively metal-poor clusters while the relatively metal-rich clusters contain the brighter HB stars. It is suggestive that NGC 6717 would be an extreme example of the second-parameter phenomenon for the bulge globular clusters.

Background: This study aims to analyze the impact of levels of health care coverage on the trajectory of self-rated health, comparing the near-poor which tends to be excluded in traditional health care systems with the upper middle class. Methods: The study participants were 3,687 people who sincerely responded questions regarding health care expenditures, unmet medical needs, and self-rated health in the Korea Health Panel data in 2009-2012. Results: The higher health care expenditures and the presence of unmet medical needs were significantly associated with the lower level of self-rated health. However, both factors did not significantly predict the steeper decline in the self-rated health. The results from multiple group analyses showed that health care expenditures and unmet medical needs had greater impact on the near-poor compared to their higher income counterparts. Conclusion: Public health care coverages need to be enhanced as well as reducing health care expenditures and unmet medical needs.

우리나라 대도시 어디에서나 볼 수 있는 빈민지역이 어떻게 형성되었으며 도시내에서 어떻게 공간이동을 하였는가를 알기 위하여 대구를 사례로하여 고찰하였다. 연구결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1) 대구의 빈민형성은 해방 및 6.25 동란을 겪으면서 그 수가 증대되어 1차적으로 도심가까이에 빈민지역을 형성하였고 그 후 도시와의 진전에 따라 도시주변지역의 무단점거에 의한 2차적 빈민지역이 형성되었다. 2) 최근에서 도시재개발사업에 환경이 개선되어 일반거주지역으로 전환되었거나 혹은 대규모 아파트단지가 건립되어 저소득층은 그 곳에 거주하지 못하고 도시근교의 영구 및 임대아파트 단지내에 대규모로 집단화하여 거주지의 수평적 이동이 이루어지게 되었다.

We use near-infrared observations of eight selected Galactic globular clusters to estimate their distances by comparing the observed and theoretically predicted K magnitudes of the red giant branch bumps and tips. The K magnitude levels of the RGB bump and tip have been measured from the luminosity function of the selected RGB stars in the clusters. Theoretical absolute $M_k$ magnitudes of the RGB bump and tip are taken from the Yonsei-Yale isochrones. Comparing the observed apparent K magnitude with the derived absolute $M_k$ magnitude, we calculate the distance moduli of the clusters. We discuss the dependency of the derived distance modulus on the cluster age and the uncertainty of the distance measurement from the near-infrared photometry of the RGB bump and tip.

Livelihood capitals have a clear influence on livelihood development. As for the livelihood results, it has been pointed out in the analysis of the poor households that the ability of people to escape poverty depends especially on the access to livelihood capitals. This study aims to analyze the impacts of livelihood capital on poverty among mountain people who depend on forests through human capital, social capital, natural capital, physical capital and financial capital. This research employs the model of binary regression function. Independent variables x1, x2, …, xn are targets of livelihood strategy, vulnerability context, and livelihood capitals. These variables were selected to be included in the original model with dependent variable Y as poor and non-poor households. This study surveys households living in upland areas, near forests, and households of ethnic minorities. The results show that,out of the poor household rate, nearly 4% are newly-poor households or those falling back into poverty. Therefore, the government needs to pay more attention to this disadvantaged group and implements policies such as education and training policies, credit support policies, policies to support forest development, and payment for forest environmental services in the context of emerging countries like Vietnam.

Purpose: Angiosarcoma is a rare malignant neoplasm of endothelial type cells that line vessel walls. It tends to occur in aged male and the prognosis of angiosarcoma is very poor because of frequent local recurrence and early metastasis. The treatment regimen is yet to be established from its rare occurrence but the wide excision in early stage is known to be the most effective. The authors report two cases of near totally excised angiosarcoma with more than a safety margin of 5 cm. Methods: The two subjects were aged male patients, one of the two was diagnosed with angiosarcoma from our institution confirmed by the biopsy. The other one went through the wide excision with a safety margin of 2 cm and split-thickness skin graft but local recurrence was observed. The two patients underwent near total excision with more than a safety margin of 5 cm, leaving only the periosteum. After confirming that the angiosarcoma had not infiltrated the excision margin, reconstruction with split-thickness skin graft was performed. Results: Based on 6 months and 24 months post-surgery assessment, no local recurrence or remote metastasis in the lungs, liver, bones, and lymph nodes at the neck, where remote metastasis is common, was reported by the two subjects who underwent near total excision with a safety margin of 5 cm. Conclusion: Angiosarcoma has very poor prognosis from its frequent recurrence and metastasis. To enhance the survival rate of angiosarcoma patients, early diagnosis, timely surgical treatment, and radiotherapy after surgery are critical. In addition, authors suggest that it is necessary to further study the efficacy of wide excision using a wider safety margin as much as possible, and to apply this to more cases.

Rural enterprise clusters in India have often been characterized by low-end products, poor income earning options and a near-absence of innovativeness. This has implied limited market access, inadequate organization of production and distancing from sources of formal knowledge. Policy neglect of rural industrialization notwithstanding this paper explores the nature of institutional constraints to innovation through intensive case studies of five rural artisan clusters (handlooms and handicrafts) in as many Indian states. Whether it relates to access to loan finance or technology support or linking to markets, the formal institutions (public or private) have been distanced by informality that typifies most rural enterprise clusters. An obsession with a sectoral approach to cluster development has negated addressing infirmities of the space of enterprise, even as scope for learning from some Asian economies in rural enterprise promotion exists. The paper also enquires if the innovation systems have been inclusive and pro-poor.
