Background:
Personality may predispose family caregivers to experience caregiving differently in similar situations and influence the outcomes of caregiving. A limited body of research has examined the role of some personality traits for health-related quality of life (HRQoL) among family caregivers of persons with dementia (PWD) in relation to burden and depression.
Methods:Data from a large clinic-based national study in South Korea, the Caregivers of Alzheimer's Disease Research (CARE), were analyzed (N = 476). Path analysis was performed to explore the association between family caregivers’ personality traits and HRQoL. With depression and burden as mediating factors, direct and indirect associations between five personality traits and HRQoL of family caregivers were examined.
Results:Results demonstrated the mediating role of caregiver burden and depression in linking two personality traits (neuroticism and extraversion) and HRQoL. Neuroticism and extraversion directly and indirectly influenced the mental HRQoL of caregivers. Neuroticism and extraversion only indirectly influenced their physical HRQoL. Neuroticism increased the caregiver's depression, whereas extraversion decreased it. Neuroticism only was mediated by burden to influence depression and mental and physical HRQoL.
Conclusions:Personality traits can influence caregiving outcomes and be viewed as an individual resource of the caregiver. A family caregiver's personality characteristics need to be assessed for tailoring support programs to get the optimal benefits from caregiver interventions.

Objectives
The occurrence of a relapse during abstinence is an important issue that must be addressed during treatment for drug addiction. We investigated the influence of drug exposure pattern on morphine-seeking behaviour following withdrawal. We also studied the role of the hippocampus in this process to confirm its involvement in drug relapse.
MethodsMale Sprague–Dawley rats that were trained to self-administer morphine (1.0 mg/kg) using 2, 4, 6, 8, or 10 h daily sessions underwent withdrawal in their home cages and were re-exposed to the operant chamber to evaluate morphine-seeking behaviour. During the relapse session, rats were intravenously injected with morphine (0.25 mg/kg) or saline before re-exposure to the chamber. In the second experiment, rats were administered a microinjection of saline or cobalt chloride (CoCl2, 1 mM), a synaptic blocker, into the CA1 of the hippocampus prior to the relapse test.
ResultsIn the first experiment, more morphine-seeking behaviour was observed in the 2 h group (animals trained to self-administer morphine during a 2 h daily session spread over 21 days) during the relapse session, despite all groups being exposed to similar amounts of morphine during the training period before withdrawal. In the second experiment, pretreatment with CoCl2 markedly reduced morphine-seeking behaviour in the 2 h group.
ConclusionsThe present findings suggest that the exposure pattern influences the degree of relapse and that control of memorisation is important for prevention of relapse.

Background:
Cerebral white matter hyperintensities (WMH) are prevalent incident findings on brain MRI scans among elderly people and have been consistently implicated in cognitive dysfunction. However, differential roles of WMH by region in cognitive function are still unclear. The aim of this study was to ascertain the differential role of regional WMH in predicting progression from mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to different subtypes of dementia.
Methods:Participants were recruited from the Clinical Research Center for Dementia of South Korea (CREDOS) study. A total of 622 participants with MCI diagnoses at baseline and follow-up evaluations were included for the analysis. Initial MRI scans were rated for WMH on a visual rating scale developed for the CREDOS. Differential effects of regional WMH in predicting incident dementia were evaluated using the Cox proportional hazards model.
Results:Of the 622 participants with MCI at baseline, 139 patients (22.3%) converted to all-cause dementia over a median of 14.3 (range 6.0–36.5) months. Severe periventricular WMH (PWMH) predicted incident all-cause dementia (Hazard ratio (HR) 2.22; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.43–3.43) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) (HR 1.86; 95% CI 1.12–3.07). Subcortical vascular dementia (SVD) was predicted by both PWMH (HR 16.14; 95% CI 1.97–132.06) and DWMH (HR 8.77; 95% CI 1.77–43.49) in more severe form (≥ 10 mm).
Conclusions:WMH differentially predict dementia by region and severity. Our findings suggest that PWMH may play an independent role in the pathogenesis of dementia, especially in AD.

A novel nano-scale manipulator capable of handling low-dimensional materials with three-dimensional linear motion, gripping action, and push–pull action of the gripper was developed for an in situ experiment in transmission electron microscopy. X-Y-Z positioning and push–pull action were accomplished by a piezotubing system, combined with a specially designed assembly stage that consisted of a lever-action gripping tip backed by a push–pull piezostack. The gripper tip consisted of tungsten wire fabricated by electrochemical etching followed by a focused ion beam process. Performance of the nano-scale manipulator was demonstrated in a grab-and-pick test of a single silver nanowire and in an in situ tensile test of a pearlitic steel sample with a specific orientation.

Background: Low education and illiteracy are associated with an increased risk of dementia. This study aimed to develop a neuropsychological test battery applicable to both illiterate and literate elderly and to assess its reliability and validity for a diagnosis of dementia.
Methods: We developed the Literacy Independent Cognitive Assessment (LICA), which consists of 13 subtests assessing memory, language, visuoconstruction, executive function, attention and calculation. We investigated its reliability and validity on 152 patients with dementia, 66 with mild cognitive impairment and 639 normal controls.
Results: The subtests were found to be applicable to most of the illiterate normal controls (97.3%) and were found to have high inter-rater reliabilities (r = 0.85–1.00, p < 0.001) and moderate to high test-retest reliabilities (r = 0.50–0.86, p < 0.001). The LICA performed well in discriminating participants across Clinical Dementia Rating stages and showed excellent internal consistency and good concurrent validity with the Korean Mini-mental State Examination in both literate and illiterate participants. The area under the curve of the receiver operating characteristic was 0.985 in each of the two literacy groups. Sensitivity and specificity of the LICA to make a diagnosis of dementia was 91.9% and 91.8% at the cutoff point of 186.0 in the literate subjects and 96.2% and 91.1% at the cutoff point of 154.5 in the illiterate subjects. The battery was factored into two separate factors consisting of verbal memory tests and tests for other cognitive domains.
Conclusion: The LICA is a valid and reliable instrument for a diagnosis of dementia in both illiterate and literate elderly.

Inside parsing is a best parse parsing method based on the Inside algorithm that is often used in estimating probabilistic parameters of stochastic context free grammars. It gives a best parse in O(N3G3) time where N is the input size and G is the grammar size. Earley algorithm can be made to return best parses with the same complexity in N.
By way of experiments, we show that Inside parsing can be more efficient than Earley parsing with sufficiently large grammar and sufficiently short input sentences. For instance, Inside parsing is better with sentences of 16 or less words for a grammar containing 429 states. In practice, parsing can be made efficient by employing the two methods selectively.
The redundancy of Inside algorithm can be reduced by the topdown filtering using the chart produced by Earley algorithm, which is useful in training the probabilistic parameters of a grammar. Extensive experiments on Penn Tree corpus show that the efficiency of Inside computation can be improved by up to 55%.

In this paper, we introduce a method to represent phrase structure grammars for building a large annotated corpus of Korean syntactic trees. Korean is different from English in word order and word compositions. As a result of our study, it turned out that the differences are significant enough to induce meaningful changes in the tree annotation scheme for Korean with respect to the schemes for English. A tree annotation scheme defines the grammar formalism to be assumed, categories to be used, and rules to determine correct parses for unsettled issues in parse construction. Korean is partially free in word order and the essential components such as subjects and objects of a sentence can be omitted with greater freedom than in English. We propose a restricted representation of phrase structure grammar to handle the characteristics of Korean more efficiently. The proposed representation is shown by means of an extensive experiment to gain improvements in parsing time as well as grammar size. We also describe the system named Teb that is a software environment set up with a goal to build a tree annotated corpus of Korean containing more than one million units.

A study of material and optical characteristics of InGaAsPAnGaP lasers grown on GaAs (100) substrate, Operating at λ = 0.8μm was carried out. The main features of InGaAsPAnGaP lasers over the conventional AlGaAs/aCAs; ones were not only stable epitaxial layer growth due to the aluminum-free material, but also strong resistance to the degradation. The other benefits of InGaAsP/inGaP laser over AlGaAs/GaAs one was the quantum-well structure growth by a simple version of liquid-phase epitaxy (LPE), which might be irnispensable to the high power operation of a semiconductor laser. The separate confinement heterostructure single quantum weil(SCH-SQW) InGaAsP/nGaP lasers were fabricated for the material charaterization of quaternary systen. The local temperature rise at the mirror facet of a InGaAsP/InGaP laser, which is the barometer of a reliable operation, was less than 30°C under even above 500 mW CW operation. We presumably attribute this low local temperatur rise of the quaternary system to the fact that it has thenodynamically stable minor facet. The surface analysis of InGaAsP layer by ESCA showed that the formation of indium oxide would prevent the elemental segragation constituting dangling orbital, which is common to A1GaAs material systems.
