Abstract: The disclosure relates to methods of treating an infant having or at risk of developing bronchopulmonary dysplasia, including premature infants, by administering an antagonist of endothelial monocyte-activating polypeptide II (EMAP II) to the infant.

Abstract: A seat cushion extension apparatus for a vehicle seat includes an extension unit slidable from a front end portion of a seat frame in a vehicle to a position disposed forwards of the front end portion of the seat frame, locking units for locking the extension unit with respect to the seat frame at a locking position, and allowing the extension unit to be slidable such that the extension unit protrudes forwards of the seat frame at a release position, and a lever for controlling the locking units between the locking position and the release position. The extension unit is supported by guide shafts to be movable forwards and rearwards in housings fixed to the seat frame. The guide shafts are locked in the housings at the locking position and are movable with respect to the seat frame at the release position.

Abstract: Disclosed is a hybrid solar thermal system, including: a solar cell panel configured to absorb solar heat to generate electricity, and transmit the generated electricity in connection with a system of a power supply company; a thermal storage tank configured to heat inside fluid by using the electricity drawn from the power supply company to provide air conditioning; a boiler configured to provide the fluid heated by the thermal storage tank to provide heating; and a cooling device configured to allow the fluid heated by the thermal storage tank to flow in a heating unit and provide cooling through heat exchange, in which the solar cell panel includes: a plurality of solar cells configured to absorb solar light and generate electricity; partitions which are installed at lower ends of the plurality of solar cells, and allow a fluid that is any one of air or water to be circulated; an insulating material configured to block heat loss to the air; and a finishing material configured to surround the solar cell.

Abstract: A manufacturing method of a triboelectric energy harvester, including the steps of generating an electrification material with a surface of a micro-nano pattern on an electrode and forming a coating electrification layer to support the micro-nano pattern on a surface of the electrification material, is provided.

Abstract: Disclosed is a laundry machine having an increased wash capacity. The laundry machine includes a cabinet, a tub connected to vibration sources through a vibration transmission blocking member, a drum rotatably provided in the tub, a suspension unit to substantially damp and support the vibration sources, and ball balancers, each of which includes a race, balls contained in the race, and an oil filing the race, provided on the drum.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a virtual golf simulation apparatus and method that is capable of applying differences between golf shots based on kinds of a landform of a real golf course when a user performs a golf rounding in the real golf course to hitting environment based on a golf mat, on which the user hits a golf ball, and to a virtual golf course through virtual golf simulation, and that is capable of simultaneously and properly reflecting the hitting environment of the user and the environment of the virtual golf course in simulation results, thereby providing the same sense of reality that the user would feel in the real golf course.

Abstract: A control method of a laundry machine is disclosed. The control method of a laundry machine comprising a circulating step configured to circulate water inside the tub to re-supply the water to the tub, the circulating step implemented in a heating step.

Abstract: Disclosed is a power transmission tower, which includes a tower body; first through sixth main insulation arms connected by one end thereof to the tower body with an angle with the tower body, respectively, and arranged radially and symmetrically about the tower body in a longitudinal direction; and first through eighth auxiliary insulation arms for selectively connecting the other end of the first through sixth main insulation arms and the tower body so that each of the auxiliary insulation arms constitutes each side of an octagon. Since the insulation arms are octagonally arranged, it is possible to reinforce a mechanical strength and enhance electric properties of the tower.

Abstract: A laundry machine is disclosed, which includes a cabinet (600, 620, 630, 640) defining an external appearance thereof, the cabinet (600, 620, 630, 640) comprising a base (600), a tub (100, 120, 130) provided in the cabinet (600, 620, 630, 640), a drum (300, 320, 340) provided in the tub (100, 120, 130), the drum (300, 320, 340) rotatable with respect to the tub (100, 120, 130) and a pressure adjusting part provided in the tub (100, 120, 130) to prevent forward movement of the drum (300, 320, 340) generated by pressure difference during the rotation of the drum (300, 320, 340). As a result the laundry machine may improve capacity of the tub (100, 120, 130) and to prevent collision between the drum (300, 320, 340) and the tub (100, 120, 130) by adjusting the pressure inside the tub (100, 120, 130).
