Intermittent PTH treatment can delay the transformation of mature osteoblasts into lining cells on the periosteal surfaces
Mature osteoblasts have three fates: as osteocytes, quiescent lining cells, or osteoblasts that undergo apoptosis. However, whether intermittent parathyroid hormone (PTH) can modulate the fate of mature osteob...

Lipid Profiles and Bone Mineral Density in Pre- and Postmenopausal Women in Korea
Although it has been hypothesized that an atherogenic lipid profile might be associated with lower bone mineral density (BMD), the previous results are controversial. We investigated the association between li...

Multi temporal JERS-1 SAR investigation of Mt. Baekdu stratovolcano using differential interferometry
Mt. Baekdu, a Cenozoic stratovolcano, was studied using twenty-three JERS-1 SAR and two ERS-2 SAR images. A 70-day ERS-2 interferogram produces a very poor interferogram because of the temporal decorrelation p...
