In this paper, configurations and performance of a pulse tube engine (PTE) are investigated. The configuration of PTE is basically designed by using a concept of energy flow. The configurations of PTE are classified as a PTE with two pistons and a PTE with one piston. First, the PTE with two pistons is simulated and the Carnot efficiency is about 41 %. The phase difference of between motion of two pistons located at expander and compressor mainly effects the performance of the PTE. Second, the PTE with one piston is designed. From a concept of analogy, the piston of compressor is replaced by a compliance tube and a resonator. The PTE with one piston is identical with a thermoacousic engine and has the large volume because the compliance tube and resonator are consisted of large volume tubes. Therefore, we will consider each usefulness of the compact PTE with two pistons and the huge PTE with one piston for PTE applications and the judgement of feasibility.

Purpose: The purposes of the study were 1) to examine what relationships exist between PTE(perceived treatments effect) and PPS (perceived physical suffering) as the independent variables and hope as the dependent variable and 2) to examine whether PTE and PPS predict hope in cancer patients in their post-operative period within the Stotland's hope theory. Method: The Visual Analog Scale was used for measuring PTE and PPS and the Kim & Lee's Hope Scale which had acceptable reliability and validity was used for measuring hope. The data was collected from 38 hospitalized cancer patients who were in the post-operative period with a convenient sampling method. Result: There was a significant positive relationship between hope and the PTE in the low PTE group. There was a significant negative relationship between hope and the PPS in the low PPS group. There were no significant relationships between hope and the PTE in the high PTE group, and between hope and the PPS in the high PPS group. And the PTE explained hope with 71.2% of the variance in the low PTE group. Conclusion: PTE in the low PTE group and PPS in the low PPS group were identified as the factors to explain hope.

큰가리비 치패의 대체 먹이원을 개발하기 위해 각기 다른 먹이원을 공급하여 성장, 생존율 및 체내 조성을 조사하였다. 생존율은 PTE + PHY 실험구에서 90.0%로 가장 높게 나타났다. 각장과 각고는 PHY에서 가장 높게 나타났으나 PTE +PHY 실험구와의 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 반면, PTE와 OTE 단독구는 유의적으로 가장 낮게 나타났다. 한편, 각폭 및 전중량도 동일한 경향을 보여 PHY 단독 실험구와 PTE+PHY 혼합 실험구에서 유의적으로 가장 높게 나타난 반면 PTE와 OTE 단독구는 가장 낮은 값을 보였다. 한편, 체내 지방산 분석에서 DHA 함량은 기존 먹이인 미세조류 단독 실험구 (PHY) 와 경제적인 먹이원인 INS 실험구에 비해 지질강화원인 PTE와 OTE가 혼합된 실험구에서 더욱 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 이러한 높은 값에 기인하여 n-3 PUFA도 높았다. 또한, 총 단백질 함량은 주요 단백질원인 PHY와 INS가 들어간 실험구가 55.5-65.2%의 함량을 보인반면 지질영양강화원만 들어간 PTE, OTE 단독 실험구는 각각 44.8%, 47.0%로 가장 낮은 함량을 나타내었다. 필수아미노산 함량도 동일한 경향을 보여 단순 지질강화원 실험구에서는 낮았다. 한편, 체내 핵산 분석에서 RNA 값은 PHY 단독 실험구와 PTE+PHY 혼합구에서 0.76으로 가장 높게 나타났으나 PTE, OTE 단독구는 각각 0.35, 0.32로 가장 낮게 나타났다. DNA 값도 PHY 단독 실험구와 PTE + PHY 혼합구에서 3.95으로 가장 높게 나타난 반면 PTE, OTE 단독구는 유의적으로 가장 낮았다. 이러한 경향에 의해 RNA/DNA ratio 값도 PHY와 INS가 들어간 단독구와 몇몇 혼합구가 PTE와 OTE 단독구 보다 높았다. 이상의 결과를 통해서 미세조류 단독 공급구인 PHY에 PTE를 혼합해 준 PTE+PHY 혼합 공급구는 큰가리비 치패의 성장, 생존율 및 체내 조성을 향상시켜 주는 것으로 나타났다. 본 실험을 통해 새롭게 대체 개발된 PTE+PHY 혼합구는 이매패류 양식에서 차지하는 미세조류 생산비용의 절감 효과를 기대해 볼 수 있는 것으로 경제적인 측면에서 매우 유용한 결과라 할 수 있다.

1. Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Schizosaccharomyces pombe 4683, Aspergillus niger의 세 종류의 균류를 2% 펙틴이 함유된 액체 배지를 사용하여 3$0^{\circ}C$에서 진탕 배양하여 pectin Transeliminase (PTE)를 생성 시켰다. 2. Asp. niger의 PTE의 생성은 두 종류의 효모균보다 월등히 높았다. 이들 효소의 환원력을 측정한 결과 Asp. niger의 PTE는 효모의 그것에 비하여 대단히 높았다. 즉 환원력은 PTE 활성에 비례함을 알 수 있었다. 3. PTE 효소에 의한 펙틴의 분해 산물은 4,5-unsaturate galacturonic acid임이 확인되었다. 4. 세가지 균류의 효소 환성의 최적 PH는 6.0이었고 최적 온도는 $50^{\circ}C$이었으며 온도에 의한 효소의 불활성도는 1$0^{\circ}C$에서 $50^{\circ}C$까지는 거의 없었으나 6$0^{\circ}C$ 이상에서는 점차 증가하였다. 5. 기질에 의한 PTE의 활성을 조사한 결과 Asp. niger의 경우 0.125%의 펙틴을 포함한 용액속에서는 그 활성이 촉진되었으나 그 이상의 기질 농도에서는 효소 활성이 오히려 억제 현상을 나타내었다. 두 종류의 효모균에서도 유사한 결과가 나타났다. 6. 효소 황성에 미치는 KCI, NaCl, MgC $l_2$의 염의 최적 농도를 규명한 결과 KCI과 NaCl은 최저 2$\times$$10^{-4}$M에서 6$\times$$10^{-l}$ M까지의 농도에서는 Asp. niger와 Sac. cerevisiae 유래의 PTE의 활성은 계속 증가하였다. 반면 MgC $l_2$의 경우는 0.2M에서 효소활성이 최적이었다.

This present study investigated the effects of the abdominal drawing-in maneuver (ADIM) and chin tuck (CT) on middle thoracic erector spinae, lower thoracic erector spinae, and lumbar erector spinae muscle activity during three prone thoracic extension (PTE) exercises. Twelve healthy subjects performed preferred PTE, ADIM PTE, and ADIM-CT PTE. Surface electromyography was used to collect data on the muscle activity of dominant middle and lower thoracic erector spinae muscles and the lumbar erector spinae. Middle and lower thoracic erector spinae muscle activity significantly increased when ADIM and CT was performed (p<.05). However, lumbar erector spinae muscle activity significantly decreased in ADIM PTE compared to preferred PTE (p=.017) and significantly increased in ADIM-CT PTE compared to ADIM PTE (p=.004). In conclusion, ADIM-CT PTE effectively increased middle and lower thoracic erector spinae muscle activity, and ADIM PTE decreased lumbar erector spinae muscle activity. Hence, ADIM PTE could be a recommended exercise maneuver to strengthen thoracic erector spinae without over activation of lumbar erector spinae.

In this paper, the power transfer efficiencies (PTEs) of magnetic resonance (MR) wireless power transmission (WPT) and radio frequency (RF) WPT are compared as a function of the distances between resonators (or antennas). The PTE of the C-loaded loop resonators during MR WPT was theoretically calculated and simulated at 6.78MHz, showing good agreement. The PTE of the patch antennas, whose area is the same as the C-loaded loop resonator during MR WPT, was theoretically calculated using the Friis equation and the equation by N. Shinohara and simulated at 5.8 GHz. The three results from the Friis equation, the equation by N. Shinohara, and from a full wave simulation are in strong agreement. The PTEs, when using the same size resonators and antennas are compared by considering the distance between the receiver and transmitter. The compared results show that the MR WPT PTE is higher than that of the RF WPT PTE when the distance (r) between the resonators (or antennas) is shorter. However, the RF WPT PTE is much higher than that of the MR WPT PTE when the distance (r) between the resonators (or antennas) is longer since the RF WPT PTE is proportional to $r^{-2}$ while the MR WPT PTE is proportional to $r^{-6}$.

In this study, we investigated the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effect of the Paulownia tomentosa extracts (PTE). The total polyphenol and flavonoid contents of PTE were 148.98±1.84 mg GAE/g extract, and 115.33±4.16 mg CE/g extract, respectively. The PTE showed that strong antioxidant activity via -diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, ABTS radical scavenging activity and FRAP assay. The anti-inflammatory activity was evaluated on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. PTE remarkably reduced protein expression of inducible nitric oxide (iNOS), resulting in inhibition of production of nitric oxide (NO). Additionally, pre-treatment of PTE significantly suppressed the production of inflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6). Moreover, PTE significantly attenuated LPS-induced IkappaB (IκB) degradation and suppressed nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) nuclear translocation in macrophages. The PTE showed high antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity. These data suggest that PTE has pharmacological activity and may be useful for the development of anti-inflammatory agents.

항암치료의 조절인자로서 중요시되는 활성엽산대사물의 장간(腸肝)순환동태를 규명하기 위해 랫드에 $[^3H]pteroylglutamic$ acid(PteGlu)를 정맥주사한 후 고성능 액체 크로마토그래피법(HPLC)을 이용해 담즙중 활성대사물에 관해 조사하였다. HPLC-liquid scintillation counting법의 분석결과, 현저한 다섯개의 방사활성 피크가 출현, 이들은 $H_4PteGlu$, $10-HCO-H_4PteGlu$, $5-CH_3-H_4PteGlu$와 paraaminobenzoyl glutamate(pABG), PteGlu로 각각 동정되었다. 전자 3물질의 활성엽산대사물의 동정은 표준물질과의 비교분석에 의해 HPLC-전기화학검출기를 이용한 retention time profile 및 hydrodynamic, Voltammogram의 일치성 그리고 HPLC-photodiode array분석에 의한 흡광스펙트럼의 일치성에 근거하였다. 후자 그 물질의(pABG 및 PteGlu) 동정은 흡광스펙트럼의 일치성에 근거하였다. 랫드 담즙중$[^3H]PteGlu$의 활성엽산대사물로서 $H_4PteGlu$의 존재가 처음으로 밝혀졌다.

Objective : To investigate the risks and pattern of evolution of peritumoral brain edema (PTE) after stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for asymptomatic intracranial meningiomas. Methods : A retrospective study was conducted on 320 patients (median age 56 years, range 24-87 years) who underwent primary Gamma Knife radiosurgery for asymptomatic meningiomas between 1998 and 2012. The median tumor volume was 2.7 cc (range 0.2-10.5 cc) and the median follow-up was 48 months (range 24-168 months). Volumetric data sets for tumors and PTE on serial MRIs were analyzed. The edema index (EI) was defined as the ratio of the volume of PTE including tumor to the tumor volume, and the relative edema indices (rEIs) were calculated from serial EIs normalized against the baseline EI. Risk factors for PTE were analyzed using logistic regression. Results : Newly developed or increased PTE was noted in 49 patients (15.3%), among whom it was symptomatic in 28 patients (8.8%). Tumor volume larger than 4.2 cc (p<0.001), hemispheric tumor location (p=0.005), and pre-treatment PTE (p<0.001) were associated with an increased risk of PTE. rEI reached its maximum value at 11 months after SRS and decreased thereafter, and symptoms resolved within 24 months in most patients (85.7%). Conclusion : Caution should be exercised in decision-making on SRS for asymptomatic meningiomas of large volume (>4.2 cc), of hemispheric location, or with pre-treatment PTE. PTE usually develops within months, reaches its maximum degree until a year, and resolves within 2 years after SRS.
