부산시 국제공동의료보험조합은 환원사업의 일환으로 조합원에 대한 집단 자궁암 검사를 건강관리협회부산지부와 함께 실시했다. 조합원 5,000여 몇 중 약 1,000명이 검사에 참가했던 이번 검사사업은, 그 동안 자신의 건강을 방(?)했던 많은 사람들에게 질병의 조기발견과 이를 통한 건강관리의 중요성을 깨닫게 해 주었을 뿐 아니라, 보건교육이 얼마나 필요한 가를 새롭게 각인시켜 주었다. 어떻게 이루어졌고, 반응이 어떠했는지를 취재하면서 ‘근로자의 건강을 지키는 것이 곧 복지사회로 가는 길’이라는 국제공동의보의 적극적 태도에 깊은 감명을 받았다.

This study aimed to compare general and female health-related factor between day-work and shift-work worker. It is based on the data of the Korea National Health&Nutrition Examination Survey(KNHANES) 2nd year on 7th period. The number of participants was 10,430. Out of the participants, 1,995 workers' dara was analyzed. The age, marital status, education level, occupational status and childbirth experience of female workers indicated significant differences between day and shift work. By contrast, health-related quality of life did not represent significant differences these factors; income, subjective health cognition, stress perception, depression experience, menarcheal age, menopausal age and breastfeeding period. The shift work is inevitably implemented as an industrial development and flexible work hours. Therefore, social and national attention and measures as well as those of individual workers are required to reduce the side effects from shiftwork.

In order to identify relationships between oral health management behavior and subjective oral health perception and oral acid production in small and medium industry workers, an examination on oral acid production and a survey were conducted. As a result, the subjective oral health status, which is subjective oral health perception, was found to have a significant effect on oral acid production, and the worse the subjective oral health status was, the higher the oral acid production was. As the subjective oral health perception is expected to be helpful for the development of industrial oral health programs to improve oral health of workers, organizational and institutional efforts for industrial oral health education will be necessary for improvement of subjective oral health perception of workers.

This paper develops the argument that the 'Healthy Cities Approach' extends beyond the boundaries of officially designated Healthy Cities and suggests that signs of it are evident much more widely in efforts to promote health in the United Kingdom and in national policy. It draws on examples from Leeds, a major city in the north of England. In particular, it suggests that efforts to improve population health need to focus on the wider determinants and that this requires a collaborative response involving a range of different sectors and the participation of the community. Inequality is recognised as a major issue and the need to identify areas of deprivation and direct resources towards these is emphasised. Childhood poverty is referred to and the importance of breaking cycles of deprivation. The role of the school is seen as important in contributing to health generally and the compatibility between Healthy Cities and Health Promoting Schools is noted. Not only can Health Promoting Schools improve the health of young people themselves they can also develop the skills, awareness and motivation to improve the health of the community. Using child pedestrian injury as an example, the paper argues that problems and their cause should not be conceived narrowly. The Healthy Cities movement has taught us that the response, if it is to be effective, should focus on the wider determinants and be adapted to local circumstances. Instead of simply attempting to change behaviour through traditional health education we need to ensure that the environment is healthy in itself and supports healthy behaviour. To achieve this we need to develop awareness, skills and motivation among policy makers, professionals and the community. The 'New Health' education is proposed as a term to distinguish the type of health education which addresses these issues from more traditional forms.

The purpose of this study is to examine the relationships between supplements knowledge and educational needs of nursing students. Data were collected through self-reported structured questionnaire using convenient sampling survey from 586 students enrolled in the nursing department from May to June, 2015. The average score of supplements knowledge and educational needs were 15.45 and 3.45 respectively. There were positive correlations between supplements knowledge and educational needs. As a result, the men's score of supplements knowledge is higher than women's according to the general characteristics of nursing students. It is necessary to develop a comprehensive program to improve for inducing the effective supplements knowledge and educational needs in nursing students.

The purpose of this study is to compare the dental health capacity of smokers and nonsmokers. This study included 9,856 adults aged 19 years or older. The data used for analysis were obtained from the Korean National Health and Nutrition Survey for the 6th round, 1st (2013), and 2nd round (2014). Statistical analysis was performed by analysis of complex sample survey data. The demographic characteristics and results of the comparison of the dental health capacity between smokers and nonsmokers were as follows: with regard to the tissue health (T-health) index, the sex, age, and education level were statistically significant in smokers and nonsmokers. For the functioning teeth (FS-T) index, age, income, and education levels were statistically significant in smokers, while sex, age, and education level were statistically significant in nonsmokers. In smokers, the age and education level were statistically significant for present teeth (PT), sound teeth (ST), and missing teeth (MT), while in nonsmokers, the sex, age, and education level were statistically significant for the same parameters (p<0.05). A comparison of the dental health capacity between smokers and nonsmokers yielded the following findings: the T-health index was higher in smokers, while the FS-T index was higher in nonsmokers. PT and ST were higher in nonsmokers (p<0.05). The results of this study show that the dental health capacity of nonsmokers was higher than that of smokers. Therefore, a clear difference was observed in the dental health capacity of smokers and nonsmokers. The results of this study can provide objective data for nonsmoking treatment.

The purpose of this study was to identify health literacy among elderly and to investigate the relationships between healthy literacy and health status. A cross-sectional study was conducted with a sample of 158 participants between July and December 2019. The linguistic and functional health literacy (using the KHLAT and NVS) and self-rated physical and mental health were assessed. Above third of elderly have difficulties reading and understanding linguistic and functional health literacy. There were significant differences in health literacy according to residence, spouse, living together, educational level, occupation, monthly income, and number of diagnosed disease. Linguistic and functional health literacy and self-rated physical and mental health are closely related. Sociodemographic and disease related factors such as residence, educational level, monthly income, and multi-morbidity need to be considered when developing educational programs to improve health literacy. It could be possible to promote health status by improving the health literacy through individualized convergent educational program.

목적: 사하라 이남 아프리카 지역 중저소득국가 모성보건지표의 더딘 개선율은 MDG 5(모자보건향상) 미달성의 주요 원인 중 하나로 꼽힌다. 따라서 본 연구는 우간다 동부 카프초르와 구의 모성사망과 밀접한 산후건강관리(PNC, Postnatal care)서비스 이용결정요인을 파악하는데 있다. 이를 통해 지역건강관리자들에게 PNC 서비스 이용 개선을 위한 정책 수립 및 방안 마련에 기초자료를 제공하고, 궁극적으로는 MDG 5 지표 개선에 일조하고자 한다. 방법: 표본 집단은 카프초르와 구의 15세~49세 여성들 중 최근 1년 내에 출산을 경험한 자들을 대상으로 편의추출 되었다. 조사기간은 2014년 7월부터 10월까지였으며, 구조화된 설문에 총 171명이 응답하였고, 19명의 주요 정보제공자와의 심층면담도 실시하였다. 응답자의 사회인구학적 특성 및 PNC 이용행태를 알아보기 위해 빈도분석을 실시하였으며, 각 독립변수가 PNC 이용에 어떤 영향을 미치는지 파악하기 위해 로지스틱 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 결과: 응답자의 55%만이 의료시설의 PNC 서비스를 받은 것으로 나타났다. 로지스틱 회귀분석을 통해서는 응답자의 연령과 사회적 네트워크, 인지된 건강상태, 산전관리서비스 이용이 PNC 서비스 이용에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며 의료시설과의 거리, 가족의 규모는 부정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 결론: PNC 서비스 이용개선을 위해서는 먼저 여성의 사회적 자본 확충 및 개선을 위한 모성보건교육인 소프트 인프라 지원이 지자체 차원에서 실시되어야 할 것이며, 서비스 이용을 가능케 하고 접근성을 높이는 응급후송체계 구축과 같은 물리적 인프라 지원도 도입되어야할 것이다. 또한 가족계획 서비스를 제공하는 등 모성보건관리에 대한 지자체의 민감성을 높이는 것도 필요하겠다.
