Objectives : This study was conducted to integrate the results of studies assessing the association between chronic noise exposure and blood pressure. Methods : Using a MEDLINE search with noise exposure, blood pressure and hypertension as key words, we retrieved articles from the literature that were published from 1980 to December 1999. The criteria for quality evaluation were as follows: 1) the study subjects must have been workers employed at a high noise level area 2) The paper should use average and cumulative noise exposure as method for exposure evaluation. 3) Blood pressure in each article should be reported in a continuous scale Among the 77 retrieved articles, six studies were selected for quantitative meta-analysis. Before the integration of the regression coefficients for the association between blood pressure and noise level, homogeneity tests were conducted. Results : All studies were a cross-sectional design and the study subjects were industrial workers. Five papers used a time-weighted average for noise exposure and only one paper calculated the cumulative noise exposure level. The measurement of blood pressure in the majority of studios were accomplished in a resting stale, and used an average of two or more readings. The homogeneity of studies was rejected in a fixed effect model, so we used the results in a random effect model. The results of the quantitative meta-analysis, the weighted regression coefficient of noise associated with systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure were 0.05 (95% confidence interval [CI]: -0.03, 0.13) and 0.06 (95% CI: -0.01, 0.13), respectively. Conclusions : Our results suggested that chronic exposure to industrial noise does not cause elevated blood pressure.

The concept of “precision agriculture” or “site-specific farming” is usually confined to the fields of soil science, crop science and agronomy. However, because plants grow in soil, animals eat plants, and humans eat animal products, it could be argued (perhaps with some poetic licence) that the fields of feed quality, animal nutrition and animal production should also be considered in this context. NIR spectroscopy has proved over the last 20 years that it can provide a firm foundation for quality measurement across all of these fields, and with the continuing developments in instrumentation, computer capacity and software, is now a major cog in the wheel of precision agriculture. There have been a few giant leaps and a lot of small steps in the impact of NIR on the animal world. These have not been confined to the amazing advances in hardware and software, although would not have occurred without them. Rapid testing of forages, grains and mixed feeds by NIR for nutritional value to livestock is now commonplace in commercial laboratories world-wide. This would never have been possible without the pioneering work done by the USDA NIR Forage Research Network in the 1980's, following the landmark paper of Norris et al. in 1976. The advent of calibration transfer between instruments, algorithms which utilize huge databases for calibration and prediction, and the ability to directly scan whole grains and fresh forages can also be considered as major steps, if not leaps. More adventurous NIR applications have emerged in animal nutrition, with emphasis on estimating the functional properties of feeds, such as in vivo digestibility, voluntary intake, protein degradability and in vitro assays to simulate starch digestion. The potential to monitor the diets of grazing animals by using faecal NIR spectra is also now being realized. NIR measurements on animal carcasses and even live animals have also been attempted, with varying degrees of success, The use of discriminant analysis in these fields is proving a useful tool. The latest giant leap is likely to be the advent of relatively low-cost, portable and ultra-fast diode array NIR instruments, which can be used “on-site” and also be fitted to forage or grain harvesters. The fodder and livestock industries are no longer satisfied with what we once thought was revolutionary: a 2-3 day laboratory turnaround for fred quality testing. This means that the instrument needs to be taken to the samples rather than vice versa. Considerable research is underway in this area, but the challenge of calibration transfer and maintenance of instrument networks of this type remains. The animal world is currently facing its biggest challenges ever; animal welfare, alleged effects of animal products on human health, environmental and economic issues are difficult enough, but the current calamities of BSE and foot and mouth disease are “the last straw” NIR will not of course solve all these problems, but is already proving useful in some of these areas and will continue to do so.

The purpose of this study was to improve productivity for maximum effects with the present equipments and staff. This study compared and analyzed the mea-sured time by using stop watch method and MTM, which was the new measuring method. The flow and results of this study were as follows: 1. This study investigated the theoretical background the efficiency for production management, and the way of productivity improvement through documentary research. 2. Setting up the standard flow on the experi-mental company production, making out a process chart and measuring the actual working hour. 3. The study measured the allowance time applying work sampling. 4. Each process of the movement analysis was filmed by video to use basic data. 5. MTM analysis was taken by choosing 10 processes from front bodice according to the basic movement of MTM. Through the results, this study exclude unneccesary movements and suggest a method for working ways. 6. Using the actual working hour measured by a stop watch calculated the pitch time and presumed the amount of daily productivity. 7. The result of the work sampling came out as 38% of allowance rate. It was 13% higher than the standard amount of woman's jacket allowance rate, which was 25%. The most influencing factor was work discussion. That was because there were commuication problem of the work way between the operator and leader. More adequate use of flow table and level passing table was needed. There were the problems that inappropriate places and sizes made the distance of movements longer and often needed more adjustment of works and surroundings. To prevent breakdowns equipments check ups were necessary before works. 8. The results of MTM analysis were as follow : the time was reduced 40% than the actual measured time by a stop watch. This was because the leveling of the operator was included in the real calculation. Also, leveling was included in MTM analysis and all the conditions were standarized. Therefore MTM method was a scientidic measuring way of establishing the standard time. The presented method of this study, suggested an ideal method eliminating unneccesary motions, and presented standardization of works. Improvement of working methods, work condition and simplifying motions in each 10 processes reduced the working time from total 656 seconds to 301 seconds. 9. The way and time of working was linked together in the MTM analysis methods. Thus data from MTM help suggest not only establishing standard time but also establishing stan-dard work. Plus it includes various ability for improvements of working ways. So it is an objective method which can be widely used in other work studies. 10. The function of a time study is to determine the amount of work produced with a given method. The work rate is used to establish the cost of labor. The wage of worker must be calculated per unit time which is deter-mined before the time study is made. This study tried to introduce the incentive rule for deciding wages according to the standard time by MTM method.

IT 거버넌스(Governance)는 IT 관련 의사결정에 있어서 기업 내부 주체들의 권한과 책임, 의사 결정 조직 체계와 프로세스, 의사소통 방법, 의사결정 실현 체계, 조정과 통제, 그리고 의사결정에 대한 사후 평가 등을 통틀어 일컫는 말이다. IT가 기업 경영의 필수 인프라로 인식되고, 경쟁력 제고의 핵심 역량으로 자리잡으면서 IT 거버넌스의 중요성은 점차 커지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내 주요 대기업들의 IT 거버넌스를 분석하였다. 국내 대기업 4개사들에 대한 심층 인터뷰를 바탕으로, 이들 기업들이 어떤 조직 체계와 의사결정 과정, 의사소통 체계, 그리고 성과 측정 방법 등을 가지고 IT관련 의사결정을 하는지를 살펴보았다. 국내 대기업들은 IT서비스를 전문적으로 제공하는 IT서비스 계열사를 두고 IT기능을 아웃소싱하고 있었으며, IT관련 최종 의사결정은 IT전문 조직이 아닌 비즈니스를 담당하고 있는 경영자들이 하는 것으로 나타났다. 국내 대기업들의 IT서비스에 대한 계약과 성과 측정은 서비스 수준 협약을 통해 이루어지고 있었으며, 국제적으로 인정되고 있는 프로젝트 관리 방법론과 균형 성과 기록표 등을 널리 사용하고 있었다. 이러한 연구는 국내 대기업 내의 IT서비스 전문 기업들의 미래 역할 정립과 정부 기관이나 공기업들의 IT거버넌스 체계의 효율성 등을 측정하기 위한 기초자료로 이용될 수 있다.

1960년대 GPS가 개발되어 2000년도 미국에서 SA(Selective Availability)를 해제함에 따라 본격적인 상용화가 시작되며 현재에 이르렀다. 개발을 거듭해온 GPS의 관측 방식 중 실시간 이동측량방식은 항상 2대의 수신기가 필요하며 기준국과 이동국의 거리가 멀어짐에 따라 정확도가 떨어지는 문제점이 발생한다. 이러한 개선방안으로 가상기지국 방식이 도입되었다. 가상기지국은 여러 개의 GPS상의 관측소 자료로부터 이동국 인근에 가상점을 생성시켜 이동국의 정밀한 위치를 결정하는 방식이므로 신뢰성과 이동성이 높다. 또한 현재의 지적기준점은 방위각법, 배각법, 다각망도선법 등의 방법으로 관측하여 사용하고 있으며, 측량성과가 서로 다른 기지점의 성과차, 도선의 길이에 대한 제약, 관측시의 여러 오차들로 인하여 문제점들이 많이 발생하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 상시관측소 데이터를 이용하여 지적기준점에 대하여 가상기지국 방식을 통한 데이터를 비교 분석하였다. 관측결과, 지적기준점을 관측한 토털스테이션을 사용하여 배각법으로 관측한 성과와 VRS-RTK로 관측한 성과를 비교한 결과 X축 평균오차 -0.08m, Y축 평균오차 +0.07m, 평균거리오차 0.11m로 나타났다.

연구목적: 피로는 일차 진료에서 흔한 증상이지만 비특이적 주관적 특성상 명확한 정의와 객관적 평가가 어렵고, 특히 기질적 질환이 없는 피로의 평가는 더욱 힘들다. 이에 저자들은 기질적 질환이 없는 피로 환자에게 Fatigue severity scale (FSS) 을 적용하여 그 유용성을 알아보고자 하였다. 방법: 피로환자 44명, 우울 또는 불안증의 정신과 환자 43명과 대조군 45명에게 피로도, 스트레스, 우울 불안 척도를 이용하여 FSS의 신뢰도와 타당도를 조사하였다. 결과: FSS의 신뢰도 계수는 0.935이었고 재검사의 상관관계 계수는 0.916이었다 (p<0.01). FSS 점수는 피로 군에서 유의하게 가장 높았고 대조군에서 가장 낮았다 (p<0.01). FSS와 Chalder fatigue scale의 상관관계 계수는 0.782로 높았다 (p<0.01). 피로군과 대조군에 대한 FSS index의 최적의 절단점은 민감도 84.1%. 특이도 85.7%인 3.22로 조사되었다. 결론: FSS는 일차진료에서 기질적 질환이 없는 피로환자와 우울 또는 불안증 환자에서 피로도를 평가할 수 있는 유용한 도구이며, 향후 보다 많은 환자를 대상으로 한 연구가 필요하리라 생각된다.

The spacial potential source contribution function (PSCF) method was utilized by considering topography and height of back trajectories based on the measurement of organic typo matter (OM), $NO_3{^-}$, $SO{_4}^{2-}$, and $NH_4{^+}$ at the Baegryungdo Super Site ($37^{\circ}57^{\prime}N$, $124^{\circ}37^{\prime}E$, 135 m a.s.l. (above sea level)) for three selected periods (i.e., January~April, May~August, and September~December) in 2013. The PSCF were calculated on the contributions of trans-boundary transport to the hourly mean concentrations using a high-resolution time-of-flight aerosol mass spectrometer (HR-ToF-AMS). The cluster analysis using back trajectories was performed to identify the major airflows to the sampling site. The upper atmosphere in the Tianjin area of China and the lower atmosphere in the western coast area of Korea can be the major source of trans-boundary pollution to the sampling site during January~April resulted from PSCF. The area in Lianyungang-city and Liaoning-sheng, China can be responsibile for the nitrogen related secondary compounds during May~August, and Shandong Peninsula in China is the major source area during September~December. In addition, relationships between the cluster analysis of back trajectories and PSCF were investigated for the statistically significance level for the source areas.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to compare the muscle activity by electrode location in the biceps brachii during the arm curl isometric exercise and to provide the basic data needed to develop the proper electrode location of the biceps brachii based on the study results comparing the muscle activity by the angle of the elbow joint. Method: 17 adult males (Age: 21.50±4.63 yrs, height: 175.29±5.97 cm, weight: 63.79±15.31 kg, upper-arm length: 30.10±1.22 cm) participated in the study. In the arm curls isometric exercise, the experiment was divided into 1st and 2nd steps to compare muscle activity according to electrode location in the biceps brachii and muscle activity according to elbow angle change. In the first experiment, the surface electrode was attached at one-third point on the line from medial acromion to cubital fossa, according to the measurement method indicated by SENIAM. The elbow angle was set to 90°. In the second experiment, according to the proposed method of this study, the electrodes were separated at one finger's width in the left and right direction at one-third point on the line from medial acromion to cubital fossa, attached at the long head and short head. From the long head electrode, in about a width of two fingers in proximal direction, a total of three electrodes were attached at the myotendinal junction of the long head. The elbow angles were set as 70°, 90°, and 110°, and the isometric exercise (100% MVC) for 5 seconds was maintained with keeping the forearm and the rope to be 90° for the first and second experiments. Results: During the arm curl isometric exercise, there was no significant difference in SH and SENIAM proposition location proposed by this researcher. LH was shown to be lower than the muscle activity of the location proposed by SENIAM and there were significant (p<.01) differences. MJ appeared lower than the muscle activity of the location proposed by SENIAM and there were significant (p<.001) differences. The muscle activity by the elbow joint angle of SH in the biceps brachii was shown in large order of 70°<90°<110°, but there was no significant difference. The muscle activity by the elbow joint angle of LH was shown in large order of 90°<70°<110°, but there was no significant difference. The muscle activity by the elbow joint angle of MJ was shown in large order of 110°<90°<70°, but there was no significant difference. Conclusion: During the arm curl isometric exercise of the biceps brachii, it is judged appropriate to attach surface electrodes to the location proposed by SENIAM.

1960년에서 1990년까지 발표된 영양조사 관련논문 336편을 9(영유아, 학동기아동, 청소년, 대학생, 임신수유부, 주부, 노인, 근로자, 환자)개 대상 집단별로 나누어 각 대상집단의 영양조사에 적용된 조사방법을 분석한 결과는 아래와 같다. 영양조사의 대상별 분포를 보면 영유아, 학동기아동, 대학생, 청소년, 주부, 노인, 근로자, 수유부, 환자의 순이었다. 조사건수의 85%가 식이조사를 포함였으며, 식이섭취조사법의 이용이 증가되었다. 설문지의 조사표를 이용하여 식습관, 영양지식등 식생활 상황을 파악한 논문이 가장 많았으며 그 내용도 대상집단에 따라 다양하였다. 논문의 53%가 신체계측조사를 적용하였으며 영유아, 학동기 아동의 경우는 신장과 체중을 계측하여 발육표준치와 비교하여 성장발육을 측정하였고, 성인의 경우는 신장과 체중을 이용하여 body mass index를 구하거나 피부투겹두께를 측정하여 체조성을 관찰하였으며, 최근에는 영양부족으로 인한성장 지연이나 열세한 체위보다는 영양과잉섭취로 인한 비만 쪽으로의 연구가 증가하고 있었으며 따라서 정확한 체지방측정 방법을 모색하는 연구논문이 다수 있었다. 생화학적 조사를 수행한 연구논문은 32%로서 숫자에 있어서는 거의 빈혈에 관한 생화학적 조사가 대부분을 차지하였다. 단백질 영양상태 판정을 위한 조사가 다수 있었으며, 무기질에 있어서는 Na과K이 주를 이루었고 비타민에 관한 생화학적 조사는 매우 부진하였다. 임상조사는 26%로서 그 적용빈도가 가장 낮았으며 특히 영양결핍성 신체징후를 관찰한 경우는 5%정도에 그쳤다. 반면에 대상자의 자각증상에 관한 설문 또는 조사표를 이용한 건강상태자각정도와 피로도 등을 측정하는 사례가 많았다.
