    Notes: Objectives The International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood (ISAAC) questionnaires have shown that the prevalence of childhood asthma is increasing worldwide. Although Asian countries used to have lower prevalence rates of allergic disease than Western countries, this prevalence is increasing in several Asian countries. To determine whether the prevalence of childhood asthma is changing in Korean adolescents, we compared findings from nationwide cross-sectional surveys in 1995 and 2000 on populations of middle-school children using the Korean version of the ISAAC questionnaire.Methods We developed Korean versions of the ISAAC written (WQ) and video (AVQ) questionnaires for allergic diseases. In 1995, the enrolled population consisted of 15 481 children, ages 12–15, and encompassing all three grades in middle school, selected from 34 schools across the nation; the response rate was 97.3%. In 2000, 15 894 children were selected from 31 of the same schools, and the response rate was 96.4%. The SAS system version 8.0 was utilized for all statistical analyses.Results The WQ showed that the lifetime and 12-month prevalence of wheeze did not change from 1995 to 2000. While the 12-month prevalence rates of sleep disturbed by wheezing and night cough increased, the rates of severe attack of wheezing and exercise-induced wheeze did not change, over this period of time. The lifetime prevalence of asthma diagnosis, however, increased significantly, from 2.7% in 1995 to 5.3% in 2000, as did the 12-month prevalence of asthma treatment, from 1.0% in 1995 to 1.9% in 2000. The AVQ also showed increases in the lifetime and 12-month prevalence rates of wheeze at rest, exercise-induced wheeze, nocturnal wheeze, nocturnal cough, and severe wheeze over this period of time. These were especially because of significant increases in the Provincial cities of Korea. Interestingly, the 12-month prevalence of wheeze was consistently high in Cheju with low air pollution indices, whereas this rate was low in Ulsan and Ansan with very high air pollution indices. Risk factor analysis showed that body mass index (BMI), passive smoking, and living with a dog or cat, but not air pollution, were associated with higher risk of wheeze.Conclusions In the 5-year period from 1995 to 2000, the prevalence of asthma symptoms has increased in Korean adolescents, much of it because of increases in Provincial Centers. BMI, passive smoking, and living with a dog or cat are important risk factors. Environmental factors other than air pollution may be associated with increases in asthma, especially in Provincial Centers.

    Notes: White-colored materials synthesized by a thermal annealing of milled GaN powders at 930 °C in a nitrogen atmosphere were identified to be monoclinic β-Ga2O3 nanowires by x-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy revealed that these nanowires are single nanocrystals, and energy dispersive x-ray indicated that these nanomaterials are free of any metals. In addition, bundles of these crystalline nanowires in the rectangular-pole shape are a few centimeters in length.© 2002 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We report low-temperature conductance measurement on a Coulomb-blockaded dot in a silicon-on-insulator-based single-electron transistor with in-plane side gates. The linear conductance for 4.2 K at zero magnetic field exhibits up to three paired peaks, indicating simple alternating odd (spin 1/2)-even(spin 0) filling. Three intrapair spacings are found to be nearly a constant value, corresponding to the single charging energy U, whereas two interpair spacings are different which are associated with U+ΔE1 and U+ΔE2, i.e., successive quantized level spacings added to U. The quantized level spacings were also revealed in the nonlinear current staircases. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A dual-gate-controlled single-electron transistor with coupled dot geometry has been fabricated on a silicon-on-insulator structure. Coupled dots are defined by tunable gates which are designed to separately control the tunneling potential barriers to compensate for disorder due to size fluctuation in quantum dots. The Coulomb-blockade phenomena observed in linear and nonlinear transport regimes were found to be enhanced by the multidot coupling. The Coulomb staircase (nonlinear effect) appears more clearly with the increasing number of coupled dots, indicating definite suppression of the inevitable cotunneling process. In the linear regime, the frequency of Coulomb oscillation was able to be tuned by changing the interdot coupling strength. These results indicate that enhancement of the Coulomb blockade and tunability can be achieved through replacing the traditional single dot by gate-controlled multidots in future single-electron devices. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Cubic-boron nitride (c-BN) thin films were grown by dual ion beam sputter deposition and the growth mechanism was studied using angle resolved in-situ XPS (x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) analysis. The π bond shake-up satellite of the B 1s peak, which is observed only in a hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) phase, appeared in the XPS spectrum obtained for the surface layer of the c-BN film. This can be a clear evidence that the c-BN phase grows via the transformation of an initially formed h-BN phase and the transformation is induced by the compressive stress accumulated in the subsurface region during ion bombardment. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract The relative ans single comparator methods have been applied to determine 7 rare-earth elements and U, Th in Korean Monazites by 14.5 MeV neutron activation analysis. The (n, 2n) nuclear reactions are used for all elements except La, for which (n, p) reaction is used. Al is used as a flux monitor for the relative method and as a singlle comparator for the single comparator method. The analytical results obtained by the two methods agree well within 3% deviation except for Sm and Gd. These results are also compared with the result obtained by a single comparator method using reactor neutron.

    Notes: Summary Six individuals with complete deficiency of erythrocyte AMP deaminase have been discovered. They are all healthy and have no hematological disorders. The deficiency is only in isozyme E, which is the erythrocyte type isozyme, and is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait. The frequency of the mutant gene is surprisingly high, one heterozygote in about 30 of the population in Japan, Seoul, and Taipei. The ATP level is approximately 50% higher in AMP-deficient erythrocytes compared to that of control cells. Degradation of adenine nucleotide is slower in the deficient erythrocytes than in the control erythrocytes.
