Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The Zuckerkandl tubercle is located at the posteromedial border of the thyroid lobe, and it may be confused with a neoplasm or other mass. This study was performed to clarify the position and morphologic characteristics of the Zuckerkandl tubercle by dissecting cadavers and to compare the findings with the corresponding CT images obtained in the same cadavers. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred thyroid lobes from 50 fresh cadavers were dissected for this study (20 males and 30 females; mean age at death, 77.3 ± 11.5 years). CT scans were obtained in 10 of the cadavers by using a 128-channel multidetector row CT scanner before dissection. RESULTS The Zuckerkandl tubercle of the thyroid gland was observed in 83% of the specimens. It was mostly located at the posteromedial border of the thyroid lobe and within the middle two quarters (2nd and 3rd) of the thyroid lobe. The Zuckerkandl tubercle was classified into 3 types based on its direction of extension: posteromedial in 64% of the specimens, posteromedial and superior in 13%, and posteromedial and inferior in 6%. On axial CT, the Zuckerkandl tubercle was usually continuous with the posteromedial part of the thyroid lobe and extended posteromedially to the esophagus. The parts of the Zuckerkandl tubercle that protrude posteromedially and superiorly or posteromedially and inferiorly from the thyroid lobe appeared separated from the thyroid gland by a thin, low-density string on axial CT. CONCLUSIONS Zuckerkandl tubercles that protrude toward the posteromedial and superior or inferior direction could cause confusion due to their separation when performing diagnoses with CT images.

Abstract
As demands for high pixel densities and wearable forms of displays increase, high-resolution printing technologies to achieve high performance transistors beyond current amorphous silicon levels and to allow low-temperature solution processability for plastic substrates have been explored as key processes in emerging flexible electronics. This study describes electrohydrodynamic inkjet (e-jet) technology for direct printing of oxide semiconductor thin film transistors (TFTs) with high resolution (minimum line width: 2 μm) and superb performance, including high mobility (∼230 cm2 V-1 s-1). Logic operations of the amplifier circuits composed of these e-jet-printed metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) TFTs demonstrate their high performance. Printed In2O TFTs with e-jet printing-assisted high-resolution S/D electrodes were prepared, and the direct printing of passivation layers on these channels enhanced their gate-bias stabilities significantly. Moreover, low process temperatures (<250 °C) enable the use of thin plastic substrates; highly flexible and stretchable TFT arrays have been demonstrated, suggesting promise for next-generation printed electronics.

Abstract
This paper describes a multiple background subtraction method in frequency difference electrical impedance tomography (fdEIT) to detect an admittivity anomaly from a high-contrast background conductivity distribution. The proposed method expands the use of the conventional weighted frequency difference EIT method, which has been used limitedly to detect admittivity anomalies in a roughly homogeneous background. The proposed method can be viewed as multiple weighted difference imaging in fdEIT. Although the spatial resolutions of the output images by fdEIT are very low due to the inherent ill-posedness, numerical simulations and phantom experiments of the proposed method demonstrate its feasibility to detect anomalies. It has potential application in stroke detection in a head model, which is highly heterogeneous due to the skull.

Abstract
To optimize the design of ITER vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) spectrometer, a prototype VUV spectrometer was developed. The sensitivity calibration curve of the spectrometer was calculated from the mirror reflectivity, the grating efficiency, and the detector efficiency. The calibration curve was consistent with the calibration points derived in the experiment using the calibrated hollow cathode lamp. For the application of the prototype ITER VUV spectrometer, the prototype spectrometer was installed at KSTAR, and various impurity emission lines could be measured. By analyzing about 100 shots, strong positive correlation between the O VI and the C IV emission intensities could be found.

Abstract
Abstract
The in situ compatibilization of poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) with liquid crystalline polymer (LCP) via catalyzed transesterification reaction was examined through thermal, rheological, morphological and mechanical studies. The addition of catalyst, dibutyltindilaurate, was found to promote the transesterification between PBT and LCP. Maintenance of high vacuum environment was required to produce the high molecular weight copolymers in the reactor, which, acting at the interface, diminished the size of the dispersed phase (LCP) and enhanced interfacial adhesion that led to an early increase of the flexural strength. Flexural strength was reduced after long time reaction due to the chain scission. Transesterification confirmed by NMR spectroscopic analysis played a major role in the interchange process.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is a gap in the systematic description and investigation of functional disability in corticobasal syndrome (CBS) and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). Additionally, the relations between disability, apraxia, cognitive and behavioural changes are not well understood in atypical parkinsonian syndromes. METHODS Fifty patients were included in this study (CBS = 18; PSP = 11), including a subgroup of primary progressive aphasia-nonfluent variant (PPA-nfv = 21) who were used as a control group given the clinic-pathological overlap. Functional disability (basic and instrumental activities of daily living), general cognition and behavioural changes were evaluated at baseline, with a subgroup of patients being reassessed after 16 months. RESULTS The corticobasal syndrome group had the most marked disability in basic activities in comparison to progressive supranuclear palsy and primary progressive aphasia-nonfluent variant. Longitudinal decline was marked for all three groups. In a linear regression examining factors behind functional disability in CBS and PSP, memory dysfunction emerged as the main factor (48.5%), followed by apraxia (14.9%) and atypical parkinsonian symptoms (9.6%). CONCLUSIONS Memory dysfunction is the most important factor in functional disability in CBS and PSP, which has to be taken into consideration in disease management, prognosis and planning of services to fully address patients' and families' needs.

Abstract
Ginseng is beneficial for many aspects of human physiology, including sexual function. In this study, we have evaluated the efficacy and safety of an extract of ginseng berry, which has a ginsenoside profile distinct from other parts of the plant, on sexual function in men with erectile dysfunction. In all, 119 men with mild-to-moderate ED participated in a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel, placebo-controlled clinical study. They were administered 4 tablets of either standardized Korean ginseng berry (SKGB, 350 mg ginseng berry extract per tablet), or placebo, daily, for 8 weeks. Efficacy was assessed with the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF)-15 and premature ejaculation diagnostic tool (PEDT) at the end of the 4th and 8th week. We observed that the total and each of the individual domain scores of IIEF-15 increased from 40.95 ± 7.05 to 46.19 ± 12.69 significantly in the SKGB by the 8th week (P<0.05). The erectile function domain of IIEF changed slightly from 17.17 ± 2.57 to 18.59 ± 5.99 in the SKGB group by the 8th week (P<0.05). In addition, PEDT scores significantly improved from 9.14 ± 4.57 to 7.97 ± 4.4 and 7.53 ± 4.26 in the SKGB group after 4 and 8 weeks of treatment (P<0.05). Safety markers including hormone and lipid in the blood were assessed at the end of the 4th and 8th week and they remained unchanged. Oral administration of the SKGB extract improved all domains of sexual function. It can be used as an alternative medicine to improve sexual life in men with sexual dysfunction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS This study examined functional changes in progressive non-fluent aphasia (PNFA) and logopenic progressive aphasia (LPA) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) and the association between function, cognition and behaviour. METHODS 59 patients were assessed with the Disability Assessment of Dementia (DAD), Addenbrooke's Cognitive Examination Revised (ACE-R) and the Cambridge Behavioural Inventory Revised (CBI-R). RESULTS No differences between groups in basic and instrumental activities of daily living (ADLs), and total ACE-R scores were found; there were correlations between total DAD and ACE-R scores for PNFA and LPA. Over 12 months, PNFA showed the marked decline of basic ADLs, whereas all three groups showed marked decline of instrumental ADLs. CONCLUSION PNFA, LPA and AD appear functionally similar when matched for disease duration. The rate of decline of ADLs depends, however, on disease diagnosis.

Abstract
LBA4032 Background: Currently, there is no standard regimen for palliative chemotherapy in metastatic, unresectable biliary tract cancer (BTC). A phase II trial of erlotinib monotherapy showed a promising anti-tumor activity in BTC with tolerable toxicity. Additionally, gemcitabine + erlotinib demonstrated superior efficacy when compared to gemcitabine alone in pancreatic cancer. Hence, we conducted a phase III trial to compare between GEMOX vs GEMOX+erlotinib (Tarceva [T]) (GEMOX/T) as first-line chemotherapy in unresectable, metastatic BTC. Methods: Eligible patients were as follows: histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of biliary tract (CCC), ampulla of vater (AOV) or gall bladder (GB); unresectable or metastatic; ECOG performance status of 0~2; adequate marrow, hepatic, renal and cardiac functions; no prior chemotherapy. The primary endpoint was progression free survival (PFS). The study regimen was gemcitabine 1,000mg/m2, oxaliplatin 100mg/m2, erlotinib 100mg qd daily q 2 weeks. Results: From February 2009 to August 2010, 268 pts were randomized, 133 patients to GEMOX arm and 135 patients to GEMOX/T arm. Patient characteristics: median age 61 yrs (range 30-82); male (63.4%); CCC (n=180, 67.2%), GB (n=82, 30.6%), and AOV (n=6, 2.2%). With a median follow-up of 13.9 months (range, 6.7 – 25.0), median PFS was 5.8 months (95% CI, 4.6 - 7.0) in GEMOX/T arm and 4.2 months (95% CI, 2.7 - 5.7) in GEMOX arm (P=0.080). In subgroup analysis (CCC, n=180), however, median PFS was significantly longer in GEMOX/T arm (5.9 months) when compared with GEMOX arm (3.0 months, P=0.049). The overall response rate was significantly higher in the GEMOX/T arm when compared with GEMOX arm. There was no significant difference in overall survival between the two arms (GEMOX/T: 9.5 months, 95% CI, 7.6 – 11.4; GEMOX: 9.5 months, 95% CI, 7.5 – 11.5; P=0.611). The EGFR mutation testing results in correlation to responsiveness to erlotinib will be presented at the meeting. Conclusions: This phase III represents the first multicenter, randomized trial to compare GEMOX vs GEMOX/T in unresectable, metastatic BTC. Although PFS was not prolonged in GEMOX/T, there was a significant benefit in terms of PFS in GEMOX/T arm for CCC patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE Patients with posterior cortical atrophy (PCA) often have Alzheimer disease (AD) at autopsy, yet are cognitively and anatomically distinct from patients with clinical AD. We sought to compare the distribution of β-amyloid and glucose metabolism in PCA and AD in vivo using Pittsburgh compound B (PiB) and FDG-PET. METHODS Patients with PCA (n = 12, age 57.5 ± 7.4, Mini-Mental State Examination [MMSE] 22.2 ± 5.1), AD (n = 14, age 58.8 ± 9.6, MMSE 23.8 ± 6.7), and cognitively normal controls (NC, n = 30, age 73.6 ± 6.4) underwent PiB and FDG-PET. Group differences in PiB distribution volume ratios (DVR, cerebellar reference) and FDG uptake (pons-averaged) were assessed on a voxel-wise basis and by comparing binding in regions of interest (ROIs). RESULTS Compared to NC, both patients with AD and patients with PCA showed diffuse PiB uptake throughout frontal, temporoparietal, and occipital cortex (p < 0.0001). There were no regional differences in PiB binding between PCA and AD even after correcting for atrophy. FDG patterns in PCA and AD were distinct: while both groups showed hypometabolism compared to NC in temporoparietal cortex and precuneus/posterior cingulate, patients with PCA further showed hypometabolism in inferior occipitotemporal cortex compared to both NC and patients with AD (p < 0.05). Patients with AD did not show areas of relative hypometabolism compared to PCA. CONCLUSIONS Fibrillar amyloid deposition in PCA is diffuse and similar to AD, while glucose hypometabolism extends more posteriorly into occipital cortex. Further studies are needed to determine the mechanisms of selective network degeneration in focal variants of AD.

Abstract
This study involves the investigation of the geometry effect of nano-fillers on thermally induced dimensional stability of epoxy composites by experimentally evaluating the linear coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE). Carbon nanofibers (CNF) were chosen as the filler in epoxy matrix to investigate the effect of an aspect ratio on the CTE of the nanocomposites at three different volume fractions of 0.5, 1, and 2% of the nano-filler. The composites were fabricated using a mechanical mixing method. The CTE values were evaluated by measuring thermal strains of the composites and also compared with a micromechanics model. It was observed that the composites with short CNF (average L/d = 10) show better thermal stability than one of the composites with long CNF (average L/d = 70), and the thermal stability of the composites was proportional to the volume fraction of the filler in each composite. In addition, the CTE of mutliwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNT) reinforced epoxy composites was evaluated and compared with the CTE of the CNF reinforced composites. Interestingly, the MWNT reinforced composites show the greatest thermal stability with an 11.5% reduction in the CTE over the pure epoxy. The experimental data was compared with micromechanics model.

Abstract
The possibility of insertional mutagenesis in retroviral gene therapy can be reduced by using a vector lacking the enhancer sequence present in the U3 of the long-terminal repeats. However, such vectors suffer from many pitfalls. We attempted to improve a murine leukemia virus-based retroviral vector containing the enhancer-free U3, first by making it easier to construct a producer line and then by introducing the cellular RPL10 promoter as an internal promoter. The reverse orientation of the expression cassette of the transgene was found to give higher transducing titer and higher-level gene expression. The deletion analysis revealed that the 54-bp-long sequence of U3 (34 and 20 bp present at 5' and 3' extreme ends, respectively) was sufficient for the functions of retroviral vectors. The data from the in vitro cell culture assay indicated that the final construct, ROK, containing all these features, had little cis-activation activity, even if it was placed right upstream from the RNA start site of the neighboring gene. Our data suggested that the newly developed vector might provide increased safety, while still producing high viral titer from a stable producer line and high-level gene expression in various target cells including human CD34(+) stem cells.

Abstract
e15591 Background: The interleukin (IL)-6 pathway is one of the mechanisms liking inflammation and angiogenesis to malignancy. As the C-reactive protein (CRP) is representative marker of inflammation, recently CRP has been reported to be associated with processing of disease in many cancers. This study aims to determine the preoperative serum levels of IL-6 and CRP in gastric carcinoma, and correlate them with disease status and prognosis. Methods: A total of 115 patients receiving gastrectomy entered this study. Serum level of IL-6 was measured by using Enzyme-Linked Immuno-Sorbent Assay (ELISA) and CRP was measured by using immunoturbidimetry. Histological findings were included depth of tumor invasion, lymph node (LN) metastasis, and TNM stage (AJCC Stage Groupings The staging systems; Primary tumor, regional LN, metastasis). Results: The more cancer invasion and stage are high, the more preoperative serum IL-6 levels are high. IL-6 level was correlated with depth of invasion (P=0.006) and TNM stage (P<0.001). Preoperative CRP level also correlated with depth of invasion (P<0.001), TNM stage (P=0.001), and presence of peritoneal seeding metastasis (positive 0.66 ± 0.69 mg/dL, negative 0.20 ± 0.29 mg/dL; P<0.001). When we put cutoff value of IL-6 level (6.77 pg/dL) by ROC curve, although patients’ survival did not reach the median value, it shows significant difference in time to progression (TTP; P<0.001) and overall survival (OS; P<0.010). But, CRP did not show significance to patients’ TTP and OS. Conclusions: Preoperative serum IL-6 and CRP levels might be markers of tumor invasion and TNM stage. Preoperative high IL- 6 level was a poor prognostic factor of disease recurrence and overall survival in patients with gastric cancers. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
e22018 Background: Several clinical studies have shown that Excision repair cross-complementation group1 (ERCC1) overexpression is associated with resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy and poor prognoses in several tumors. However these studies have never been tried for biliary tract cancer. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between ERCC1 expression and treatment outcomes in advanced biliary tract adenocarcinoma patients treated with platinum-based palliative chemotherapy. Methods: We analyzed 45 patients with histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of biliary tract at 5 institutions between January 2002 and March 2008. ERCC1 expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry from biopsy specimens. Results: ERCC1 expression was positive in 17 of 45 specimens (37.8%). 26 (57.8%) of 45 patients showed clinical benefits(including complete response, partial response and stable disease). Among 26 patients who obtained clinical benefits, seven (27%) were positive for ERCC1 expression and ninety (73%) were negative (p=0.079). With a median follow-up of 6.6 months (range, 0.9–39.4 months), median Progression free survival (PFS) and Overall survival (OS) were 4.4 months (95% CI, 3.2–5.6 months) and 8.5 months (95% CI, 6.1–10.9 months), respectively, for the total study population. On univariate analysis, PFS was 2.3 months for patients with ERCC1 positive tumor and 5.3 months for those with ERCC1 negative tumor (P = 0.053). However OS was significantly longer in the ERCC1-negative group than in the ERCC1-positive group (10.0 vs 4.4 months, respectively; P = 0.001). Other factors affecting the prolongation of OS were objective response rate (P = 0.016) and clinical benefits (P = 0.001). A Cox proportional hazard model showed that negative ERCC1 expression (hazard ratio 0.405, 95% CI, 0.200–0.820; P = 0.012) and clinical benefit (hazard ratio 0.183, 95% CI 0.080–0.420; P = 0.001) were significant independent prognostic factors for the prolongation of survival. Conclusions: These results suggest that advanced biliary tract adenocarcinoma patients with ERCC1-negative tumors show a survival benefit from palliative chemotherapy with a platinum- containing regimen.

Abstract
e15660 Background: To illuminate the effect and toxicity of fortnightly low-dose leucovorin(LV) and fluorouracil(5FU) bolus plus continuous infusion(LV5FU2) postoperative chemotherapy(adjuvant) in patients with curative resected, advanced gastric cancer. Methods: Total 40 patients were enrolled in this study. All patients received LV 20mg/m2(bolus), 5FU 400mg/m2(bolus), 5FU 600mg/m2(24-hour continuous infusion) on day 1, 2, 15, and 16, every 4 weeks(LV5FU2), total 6 cycles. Results: Postoperative chemotherapy was initiated median 19 days after surgery. Total of 238 cycles were administered and median follow-up was 602 days. The median disease-free survival time was 728 days (95% CI, 411∼1045) and 2-year overall survival was 77%. Relapses were reported in 18 (45%) of the patients : Two of 9 patients relapsed in stage IIIA (22.2%), seven of 12 patients relapsed in stage IIIB (58.3%) and nine of 17 patients relapsed in stage IV (52.9%). They were all distant relapsed. Eight patients died. 7 patients died as a result of cancer progression and 1 patient suicided while receiving palliative chemotheraphy for cancer relapse. The grade 3∼4 toxicity of neutropenia 8.4% and anemia 0.4%, neutropenic fever 0.4% were observed. Conclusions: Postoperative LV5FU2 adjuvant chemotherapy is effective and tolerable for the patients with curative resected, advanced gastric cancer.
