The Job-related Stress Scale, Problem Solving Style Questionnaire, and the Symptom Checklist-Revised (SCL-90-R) were administered to 148 firefighters working in Seoul and Gyounggi. Correlation analysis revealed that job-related stress, problem-solving styles such as helplessness and problem-solving control correlated positively with psychological distress and that problem-solving confidence and approaching style correlated negatively with it. Multiple regression analysis showed that job-related negative cognition and emotion, helplessness and approaching style accounted for 43% of the variance in the psychological distress. Among problem-solving styles, helplessness had the highest predictive power for psychological distress.

요즘 같은 삼복더위엔 고온다습한 기후 때문에 체력 소모가 커서 쉽게 피로해진다. 하지만 적당한 피로감은 밤에 숙면을 이루게 해주는 상쾌한 피로이며 다음날 아침 유쾌한 기상을 할 수 있게 해준다. 따라서 단순한 피로 자체가 걱정거리는 아니다. 문제는 몇 주나 몇 달이 가도 가시지 않는 만성적인 피로감이다. 만성피로는 흔히 두통, 뒷목의 뻣뻣함, 식욕부진, 권태증, 성욕감퇴, 신경쇠약, 의욕상실, 우울증 등을 동반한다. 쉬운 말로 각종 종합검사에서는 정상이지만 온몸이 나른하고 무기력하며 아무런 의욕도 없고 만사가 귀찮아지며 단지 피로할 뿐이다. 만성피로는 모든 질병의 근원이다. 으레 그러려니… 하면서 애써 참다가 낭패를 볼 수 있다. 그렇기 때문에 만성피로를 예방하는 것은 건강한 삶을 위한 첫걸음이다.

Many arthritis patients experience physical and psychological impairment. The influence psychological factors on physical functioning beyond disease & demographic factors has been investigated. Unlike others studied the relationship between just two variables (i. e., depression & helplessness or self-efficacy & depression), the relationships among several variables such as depression, helplessness and self-efficacy were examined altogether. Foully-two patients were examined to identify the relationship between the variables. It was found that ADL is significantly negatively related to depression and helplessness, and positively related to self-efficacy. And ADL was more strongly correlated with self-efficacy and helplessness than depression. Contrary to ADL, pain was significantly negatively related to self-efficacy, and positively related to depression and helplessness. Then stepwise regression analysis was performed to identify the variables to predict ADL. It revealed that helplessness was the only significant predictor of ADL. Finally, it is suggested that the inclusion of the method to increase self-efficacy & to decrease helplessness in any nursing intervention is very important.

Objectives : To investigate the clinical features of drug-induced liver injury (DILI) and traditional Korean medicine (TKM) -based management. Methods : A female patient diagnosed with DILI caused by Western drugs had been treated with Oriental therapies, then the subjective clinical outcome and biochemical parameters were monitored. Results : A 73-year-old female had taken Western drugs (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory and skeletal muscle relaxants) for about 3 months, and complained of severe abdominal discomfort and tiredness. Her RUCAM score was 9, which met the criteria for DILI (AST 90 IU/L, ALT 100 IU/L, ALP 191 IU/L, and GGT 614 IU/L). She was treated with herbal drugs, moxibustion, and acupuncture, and her symptoms completely resolved, with normalized hepatic enzymes within two weeks. Conclusions : This case report provides a clinical characteristic for a typical DILI caused by Western medicine, and shows an example of a TKM-based application.
