Abstract:
An apparatus and method for processing an echocardiogram using the Navier-Stokes equation is provided. The apparatus includes an ultrasonic sensor that transmits ultrasonic waves to the heart in three different directions and receives echoes thereof; an image processor that constructs first to third echocardiograms captured from the three different directions, respectively, based on the received echoes of the ultrasonic waves; a three-dimensional model construction unit that constructs a three-dimensional model of a left ventricle of the heart based on the first to third echocardiograms; and a blood flow vector calculation unit that calculates blood flow vectors within the left ventricle by applying the three-dimensional model of the left ventricle to boundary conditions in the Navier-Stokes equation. In echocardiogram processing, vector components of the blood flow within the left ventricle are calculated using the Navier-Stokes equation, whereby the vector components of the blood flow can be more accurately calculated.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), including SNAP5114 as an active ingredient. A Git1 gene-deficient hetero (+/−) mouse, confirmed to have increased amount of GABA in the brain striatum that controls hyperactivity, can be used as an animal model of ADHD, and by confirming that hyperactivity is ameliorated by administering SNAP5114 to the Git1 gene-deficient hetero (+/−) mouse, SNAP5114 is provided as a therapeutic agent for ADHD.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method and kit for isolating an extracellular vesicle (EV) from a biological sample using fractional precipitation. According to the method and kit, rapid isolation is possible, and an EV can be effectively isolated from various types of biological samples regardless of the sample sources. Unlike a method for isolating an EV on the basis of an existing precipitation method, the present invention can easily remove a salt by washing, and, thus, has the benefit of being able to isolate a highly pure EV with a high yield rate and can be applied to both small-scale EV isolation in research and diagnostic fields and large-scale EV isolation for industrial applications.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a monocrystalline metal foil and a monocrystalline metal foil manufactured thereby, the method comprising the steps of: fixing each of the ends of a polycrystalline metal foil to electrodes; and heat-treating the fixed polycrystalline metal foil to manufacture a monocrystalline metal foil.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a polymeric gel comprising crosslink points, which are dissociated in response to nitrogen monoxide, and to a method for preparing a hydrogel, the method comprising the steps of: a) polymerizing a mixture of monomers comprising a monofunctional hydrophilic monomer and a monomer comprising a plurality of functional groups comprising an o-phenylenediamine residue; and b) separating a hydrogel formed by the polymerization.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a deglycosylated LRG1 glycoprotein and a LRG1 glycoprotein variant, and a use thereof. The deglycosylated LRG1 glycoprotein and LRG1 glycoprotein variant of the present invention exhibit effects of angiogenesis, nerve growth and nerve regeneration that are superior to those of conventional LRG1 glycoproteins, and thus a composition containing thereof is effective in preventing and treating vascular erectile dysfunction, ischemic heart/brain/peripheral vascular diseases, diabetic vascular complications, neurogenic erectile dysfunction, diabetic neurologic complications, post-operative/post-traumatic peripheral nerve damage, ischemic diseases including neurodegenerative diseases, peripheral nerve diseases, erectile dysfunction and/or neurodegenerative diseases.
