지명진,구유정,오태근,전현정 대한의학회 2018 Journal of Korean medical science Vol.33 No.17

Background: Adiponectin is an adipokine that regulates lipid and glucose metabolism and has been shown to have anti-inflammatory and anti-atherogenic effects. It also plays an important role in the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Methods: This study evaluated the association between adiponectin 45T/G polymorphism and cardiovascular complication in type 2 diabetes in Koreans. Results: The present study included 758 patients with type 2 diabetes. The distribution of the adiponectin 45T/G polymorphism was 3.56% (n = 27) for GG, 42.35% (n = 321) for TG, and 54.09% (n = 410) for TT in patients with type 2 diabetes. The prevalence of CVD was significantly higher in subjects with the GG + TG genotype compared to those with the TT genotype (17.5% vs. 9.8%, P = 0.002). The G allele was associated with a higher risk of CVD (P = 0.002). Conclusion: Our findings suggest that the adiponectin 45T/G polymorphism is associated with diabetic cardiovascular complication in type 2 diabetes.

지명진 ( Myeongjin Ji ),김태현 ( Tae-hyun Kim ),김성환 ( Seong-whan Kim ) 한국정보처리학회 2021 한국정보처리학회 학술대회논문집 Vol.28 No.1

최근의 기계 학습 (딥러닝)은 기존의 전통적인 통계 분석 방법들에 비해 효율성과 정확도가 높은 장점이 있지만, 처리과정이 블랙박스와 같아 결과 값의 중요한 원인 또는 근거 요인을 찾기 어렵다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이를 해결하기 위한 최근의 XAI (eXplainable AI) 연구를 기반으로 하여, 본 논문에서는 의료기관에서 전정기관의 이상을 판별하기 위해 수작업으로 이루어지고 있는 HIT (head impulse test) 테스트 결과를 자동화하고, 설득력 있는 신뢰도 검정을 위해, XAI 기반 DoWhy 프레임워크를 사용하였다. 전정기관 이상으로 의심되는 환자의 동공 움직임을 optical flow 로 추적하고, 정상인과의 Wasserstein metric 의 DoWhy 검증을 통해 전정기관 이상 여부의 신뢰도 구간을 검정한다.

김재욱,지명진,차병관,김종규,Kim, Jae-Uk,Ji, Myoung-Jin,Cha, Byung-Kwan,Kim, Jong-Gyu 대한화학회 2010 대한화학회지 Vol.54 No.5

열 변색 현상을 나타내는 염료 중에서 분자량은 같지만 구조식이 다른 두 염료인 Blue 402 {3-(4-(diethylamino)-2-methylphenyl)-3-(1,2-dimethyl-1H-indol-3-yl)isobenzofuran-1(3H)-one}와 Blue 502 {3-(4-(diethylamino)phenyl)-3-(1-ethyl-2-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)isobenzofuran-1(3H)-one}의 스펙트럼을 측정하여, 두 염료의 흡광도 변화에 따른 열역학적 함수들을 연구하였다. 염료의 알코올 용매 하에서 탄소 수 변화에 따른 흡광도의 변화를 실험한 결과 탄소수가 증가할수록 흡광도($\lambda_{max}$)의 변화는 장파장으로 이동함을 확인하였다. 흡광도 측정 결과 Blue 502가 Blue 402보다 알코올 용매 하에서 보다 더 안정하다는 것을 확인하였다. 두 염료의 온도 변화에 평형 상수를 측정하여 열역학적 함수들을 계산하였는데, 두 염료의 평형상수는 약 0.9 ~ 1사이의 값을 갖는 것을 확인하였다. 평형상수와 몰흡광계수로부터 계산된 엔탈피 값은 메탄올에서 Blue 402는 약 10.94 kJ/mol, Blue 502는 약 9.010 kJ/mol의 값을 갖는 것을 확인하였다. Two different dyes containing the same molecular weight but different chemical structure have been utilized for the study of thermodynamic parameters. In this study, {3-(4-(diethylamino)phenyl)-3-(1-ethyl-2-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)isobenzofuran-1(3H)-one} (Blue 502) and {3-(4-(diethylamino)-2-methylphenyl)-3-(1,2-dimethyl-1H-indol-3-yl)isobenzofuran-1(3H)-one} (Blue 402) were used. It has been performed by measuring UV spectra of the two dyes. In general, the blue shift has been observed from both dyes in higher carbon number alcohol solvents. Interestingly, Blue 502 showed higher stability than Blue 402 in the same conditions used in this study. And, the equilibrium constants (0.9~1.0) of the dyes depending upon temperature change were also calculated using UV absorbance. The standard enthalpy calculated from equilibrium constants and molar absorptivity($\varepsilon$) are 10.94 kJ/mol in Blue 402 and 9.010 kJ/mol in Blue 502, respectively.

형광체나 반도체의 소자로 사용되는 전이금속화합물 중에서 나노(nano) 크기를 가지는 스피넬 화합물을 합성하였다. 스피넬 화합물의 크기, 합성여부, 열적분석과 화합물의 특성을 확인하기 위하여 열 중량 분석기(TGA), X-선 회절 분석기(XRD), 적외선 흡수 분광기(IR)를 사용하였다. Scherrer식을 이용하여 화합물의 평균 입자 크기가 13~16 nm임을 예측할 수 있었다. 본 논문에 사용된 실험방법은 졸-겔(sol-gel)법을 사용하였으며, 소성 온도는 낮은 온도에서 진행 되었다($350^{\circ}C$). Kinetic 함수인 활성화 에너지와 전환인자를 계산하기 위해서 Kissinger방법과 Arrhenius식을 이용하여 계산하였다. $ZnCo_2O_4$와 $NiCo_2O_4$의 활성화 에너지는 163.42 kJ/mol와 147.01 kJ/mol 값을 가지는 있음을 확인하였다. 그리고 spinel 화합물들의 열역학적 함수(${\Delta}G^{\varphi}$, ${\Delta}H^{\varphi}$, ${\Delta}S^{\varphi}$)를 결정하였다. The spinel compound was obtained by the thermal decomposition of Zn-Co and Zn-Ni gel prepared by sol-gel method using oxalic acid as a chelating agent. The formation of spinel compound has been comfirmed by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), x-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and infrared spectroscopy (IR). The particle size of 13 nm~16 nm was calculated by Scherrer's equation. The sol-gel method provides a practicable and effective route for the synthesis of the spinel compound at low temperature ($350^{\circ}C$). The kinetic parameters such as activation energy (Ea) and pre-exponential factor (A) for each compound were found by means of the Kissinger method and Arrhenius equation. The decomposition of spinel compound has an activation energy about 155 kJ/mol. Finally, the thermodynamic parameters (${\Delta}G^{\varphi}$, ${\Delta}H^{\varphi}$, ${\Delta}S^{\varphi}$) for decomposition of spinel compound was determined.

본 연구는 전이금속이 치환된 묽은 자성 반도체의 자기적 특성을 연구하였다. 울츠자이트(wurtzite) 구조를 가지는 화합물은 졸-겔(sol-gel)법을 이용하여 합성하였다. 열역학적 특성과 자기적 특성을 가진 $Zn_{1-x}Co_xO$은 단일상으로 나타났으며, 농도에 따라 다른 특성을 보여주었다. 묽은 자성 반도체의 특성을 조사하기 위해 X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electronic microscope (SEM) 및 vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM)을 사용하였다. 구조 분석을 통해 단일상이 확인된 시료에서는 모두 강자성 특성이 발견되었고, 전이금속 이온의 농도를 5%이상 치환이 되면 강자성이 감소하는 현상이 나타났다. This is the study of magnetic properties of transition metal doped diluted magnetic semiconductors(DMSs). The wurtzite structure samples were synthesized by the sol-gel method. The thermodynamic characteristics and magnetic properties of $Zn_{1-x}Co_xO$ single phase was investigated for different doping concentration (x = 0%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 10%, 15%). The property of diluted magnetic semiconductors has been comfirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electronic Microscope (SEM) and Vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The magnetic properties of pure $Zn_{1-x}Co_xO$ is found to be dominated by the ferromagnetic interaction between doped transition metal ions, where by the ferromagnetic coupling strength is simply increased with the concentration(>5%) of the doped transition metal.

Association between Bsm1 Polymorphism in Vitamin D Receptor Gene and Diabetic Retinopathy of Type 2 Diabetes in Korean Population

홍용주,강은석,지명진,오태근,궁성수,전현정,최형진 대한내분비학회 2015 Endocrinology and metabolism Vol.30 No.4

Background: Type 2 diabetes is one of the most common diseases with devastating complications. However, genetic susceptibility of diabetic complications has not been clarified. The vitamin D endocrine system is related with calcification and lipolysis, insulin secretion, and may be associated with many complicated disease including diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Recent studies reported that single nucleotide polymorphisms of vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene were associated with diabetic complications. Methods: In present study, we evaluated the association of BsmI polymorphism of VDR with diabetic complications in Korean diabetes patients. Total of 537 type 2 diabetic subjects from the Endocrinology Clinic of Chungbuk National University Hospital were investigated. Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism was used to test the genotype and allele frequency of BsmI (rs1544410; BB, Bb, bb) polymorphisms. Results: Mean age was 62.44±10.64 years and mean disease duration was 13.65±7.39 years. Patients with B allele (BB or Bb) was significantly associated with lower risk of diabetic retinopathy (severe non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy or proliferative retinopathy; 7.4%, 5/68) compared with patients without B allele (bb; 17.3%, 81/469; P=0.035). This association was also significant after adjusting for hemoglobin A1c level, body mass index, age, sex, and diabetes mellitus duration, concurrent dyslipidemia and hypertension (odds ratio, 2.99; 95% confidence interval, 1.08 to 8.29; P=0.035) in logistic regression analysis. Conclusion: Our findings suggest that B allele of Bsm1 polymorphism in VDR gene is associated with lower risk of diabetic retinopathy in type 2 diabetic patients. Bsm1 genotype could be used as a susceptibility marker to predict the risk of diabetes complication.

담도 과오종과 선천성 간섬유증은 태생기에 간판 기형에 의해 생기는 섬유 낭성 질환에 속한다. 담도 과오종은 증상을 유발하지 않고 우연히 발견되는 질환이지만, 선천성 간섬유증은 25%에서 담관염이 발생하고 증상이 발생하면 항생제 투여부터 수술까지 적극적 치료가 필요하다. 저자들은 복부 영상 소견으로 담도 과오종으로 진단하고 경과 관찰하던 64세 남자가 2년간 반복적인 담관염이 발생한 원인을 찾기 위해 시행한 간 생검에서 담도 과오종과 선천성 간섬유증이 병합된 것으로 진단한 증례를 경험하여 문헌고찰과 함께 보고한다. Biliary hamartoma and congenital hepatic fibrosis belong to fibrocystic disorders originating from ductal plate malformation. A 66-year-old man who had incidentally been diagnosed with biliary hamartoma two years ago presented to us with recurrent acute cholangitis. In the first episode, he had presented with septic shock and was treated with endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and cholecystectomy under the diagnosis of acute cholecystitis and cholangitis. However, during a two-month follow-up period, the patient experienced four episodes of acute cholangitis. Because he showed normal ERCP, and biliary hamartoma is usually asymptomatic, a liver biopsy was performed. Pathology revealed combined features of biliary hamartoma and congenital hepatic fibrosis, characterized as periportal fibrosis and intrahepatic ductular dysplasia. During follow-up for the last six months, he had experienced two episodes of acute cholangitis and was treated with antibiotics. A follow-up abdominal CT scan revealed aggravated hepatosplenomegaly compared to that of two years ago. We report a case of combined congenital hepatic fibrosis and biliary hamartoma and a literature review. Korean J Pancreatobiliary 2015;20(2):105-110
