Abstract: The present invention relates to a biomarker for diagnosis of overactive bladder (OAB) disease, and a method for screening a drug using the biomarker. The markers described in the present invention can effectively detect or diagnose the onset of OAB by distinguishing them from normal populations. In particular, OAB-specific protein markers released into urine enable simple and rapid OAB diagnosis in a non-invasive manner. In addition, by selecting an agent that changes, particularly normalizes the expression and activity of the markers selected in the present invention, more effective preventative or therapeutic agents of OAB disease can be screened.

Abstract: A television-integrated video cassette recorder apparatus comprising a high definition television for receiving a high definition television signal from a broadcasting station, a digital video cassette recorder for recording and playing back the high definition television signal or a standard television signal on/from a magnetic tape, and an interface circuit for converting a format of the high definition television signal into a recording format of the digital video cassette recorder in a recording mode, converting a format of a playback signal from the digital video cassette recorder into a high definition television format or a standard television format in a playback mode and performing a plurality of screen processing functions in a standard television manner. According to the present invention, a compatibility is provided between a standard TV system and a HDTV system.

Abstract: A video data recording apparatus for a digital VCR comprising a frame controller for detecting a vertical synchronous signal from input video data and outputting a frame detect signal and a first switching signal in response to the detected vertical synchronous signal, a switching counter for generating a second switching signal in response to the frame detect signal from the frame controller to control a switching operation of a track distributed switch, a buffer for dividing the input video data distributed by the track distribution switch in the unit of segment and storing the video data of the divided segments, a segment shifting counter for generating a third switching signal in response to the first switching signal from the frame controller, a shifting switching circuit for selectively transferring the video data from the buffer in response to the third switching signal from the segment shifting counter, a signal select switching circuit for selectively transferring the video data from the shifting swi

Abstract: A variable bulge device for displacing bulges of a rotation head drum, capable of adjusting a protruded amount of a bulge used, depending on a rotation speed of the rotating head drum and the kind of a tape used. The device includes an operating member partially protruded at one end thereof through a bulge hole formed at a lower drum of the rotation head drum, the operating member having a variable bulge provided by the protruded end, and a drive unit for driving the operating member and thereby adjusting the protruded amount and position of the variable bulge.

Abstract: A signal characteristic variation apparatus for a high definition VCR in which a characteristic of a video signal is varied according to characteristics of a tape and a channel. A predetermined frequency band of test signal is recorded on the tape for recording the tape and channel characteristics in a recording mode. This enables the video signal to be recorded on the tape in the proper mode and permits, in the play-back mode, the tape and channel characteristics to be discriminated by detecting the test signal recorded on the tape. Therefore, the video signal can be played back from the tape with its frequency characteristic properly adjusted according to the discriminated tape and channel characteristics.

Abstract: Video format conversion apparatus and method for a high-definition TV capable of achieving motion compensation by macroblocks, determining stationary condition, motion-involved condition and scene change by pixels, and achieving interpolation by pixels, thereby accurately realizing conversion of a video of the interlaced scanning format into a video of the progressive scanning format.
