  • Objectives : Seventh-day Adventists is well known to place a strong doctrinal emphasis on healthy life style that do not consume tobacco, alcohol or pork, and many adhere to a lacto-ovo-vegetarian lifestyle. This study aimed to investigate the difference of mortality between Korean Seventh-day Adventists and the general Korean population. Methods : We got 592 mortality data of Adventist cemetery in Seoul city and Kyunggi provincce of Korea, which contains information on causes of death for 2000-2004. Also we used mortality data of the general Korean population in Korea National Statistics Office for 2000-2004. Results : The mean age at death was 70.45 in Korean Adventists, 65.63 in the general Korean population. Higher neoplasm cause of death, such as of stomach, liver and breast, were observed in Korean Adventists than the general population. The death cause of injury, poisoning and external causes, and cerebrovascular disease were higher in the general population than Korean Adventists. The death cause of stomach cancer was lower in Korean Adventists who had above 10 years religious period than general population above age 50 years. In male, the death cause of lung cancer was lower in Korean Adventists than the general population. Conclusions : The results point to the importance of healthy life-style in Korean peoples, and indicate that lifestyle changes in the population might change the causes of death.

  • Due to the rapid development of medical information, vast amounts of medical data are accumulating, and such medical data is highly likely to be used as an important data for solving the aging population and the rapid rise in medical cost. Especially in Korea, there are resident registration numbers and computerized usage data for all citizens, so it can be superior to other countries in terms of medical infrastructure that can utilize big data. The purpose of this study was to analyze the factors affecting the mortality and death rate of Gangwon using the Big Data and the National Statistical Office data centered on Kangwon province. As a result of analysis, major variables related to the mortality rate of Gangwon were hospital infrastructure utilization rate, income level, aging population and population density. Therefore, inequalities due to income disparities and insufficient local medical infrastructures were affecting the local mortality rate, and policy support was needed to improve the local hospital infrastructure and income level. The results of this study were meaningful in that medical big data were used to analyze the deaths of people in Gangwon, and the causes of the deaths were analyzed through various social indicators and correlation analysis.

  • Objectives: The purpose of this research was to evaluate the ability of completing death certificates among medical students. Methods: The self-administered questionnaires were completed, during May to August 2007, by 380 medical students in senior. The questionnaire was composed of 10 cases to write the death certificate. The cause-of-deaths written by students were compared with the gold standards and their errors in the certificates also evaluated. Results: Mean agreement score for 10 underlying cause-of-deaths completed on the lowest line of part I in the death certificate (UC1) was $4.8{\pm}1.7$, and for underlying cause-of-death selected by a coder of the death certificates (UC2) was $5.6{\pm}1.5$. The UC1 and UC2 were significantly higher among the students having the case-oriented education for death certificate than others. For the major errors in the certificates completed by students, the students having the error with no antecedent cause were highest, the error with two or more conditions secondly highest. Mean number of errors was significantly lower in the case-oriented education group than others. Conclusions: Errors are common in the death certificates completed by medical students in senior. The accuracy of death certification may be more improved with the case-oriented education than the traditional method.

  • 본 지역 재정지표와 표준화사망률간의 관계에 대한 것으로, 연구대상지역은 1998년부터 2007년까지의 전국 232개 시 군 구이며 이를 5개 광역권과 4개 도시 종류에 따라 분류하였다. 지역 재정지표는 1인당 지방세부담액과 재정자립도, 재정자주도, 의존재원비율을 활용하였고, 지역 총사망률은1998년에서 2007년까지의 통계청 사망 원자료 상의 사망자수를 분자로, 주민등록인구를 분모로 직접 표준화법을 사용하여 연구대상 지역의 성 연령표준화사망률을 산출하였다. 자료의 분석은 SPSS 12.0K를 이용하여 상관분석, 일원배치분산분석(Tukey b 사후검정) 및 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 주요 결과로는 첫째, 재정지표와 표준화사망률간의 상관분석을 실시하여 연도별로 계수 값을 구한 결과 1인당 지방세부담액을 제외하고 재정자립도, 재정자주도, 의존재원비율 모두 남자, 여자, 전체 모두가 전 연도에 걸쳐 상관계수 값이 통계적으로 유의하였으며, 남자가 여자보다 높은 상관관계를 보였다. 둘째, 재정자립도, 재정자주도 각각을 표준화사망률과 단순 회귀분석을 실시한 결과, 표준화사망률 남자, 여자, 전체가 전 연도에서 통계적으로 유의하였고, 재정자립도와 재정자주도가 낮을수록 사망률이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 광역권역, 도시 종류까지 고려한 재정지표의 다중회귀분석을 실시한 결과, 1인당 지방세부담액과 의존재원비율, 광역권역과 도시 종류에 따른 지역을 고려하고도 재정자주도의 효과는 전체사망과 남자, 여자, 전 연도에 걸쳐 모두 통계적으로 매우 유의하여 재정자주도가 높을수록 사망률이 낮은 것으로 나타났고 이런 경향은 여자보다 남자에서 더욱 강하게 나타났다. 넷째, 광역권별 분석의 경우, 충청권은 수도권에 비해서 표준화사망률에서 유의한 차이는 없었으며 호남권과 영남권은 전체 표준화사망률의 경우 전체 연도의 절반 이상에서 수도권에 비해서 통계적으로 유의하게 높았고, 남자와 여자에서는 이런 경향이 약해졌다. 강원 제주권은 전체 사망에서 수도권에 비해 전체 연도의 절반 이상이 유의하게 사망률이 낮았으며, 여자도 이와 비슷한 양상을 보여주었다. 다섯째, 도시 종류에 따른 분석에서 대도시에 비해 중소도시는 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 없었으나, 전 연도에 걸쳐 도농통합도시와 군지역은 대도시에 비해 통계적으로 사망률이 높았다. 여섯째, 전 연도에 걸쳐 의존재원비율이 높아질수록 사망률이 유의하게 높아졌다. 이는 남자, 여자 모두에서 유사하게 나타났다. 마지막으로 연도별 분석 이후 1998년에서 2007년 전체 다중 회귀분석을 실시한 결과 전체 사망과 여자의 경우 1인당 지방세부담액을 제외한 모든 변수에서 통계적으로 유의하였다. 지역의 재정력이 성 연령 표준화사망률에 영향을 미치는 것으로 파악되었는데 이를 단서로 지역의 건강 격차가 발생하는 원인과 기전을 밝히기 위해 향후 보다 면밀한 후속 연구가 이뤄져야 하겠고 지역 간 건강 격차를 완화하기 위한 여러 방법론적 고찰 안에 지역간 재정력의 격차를 완화하려는 정책적인 접근도 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

  • Purpose : In the course of treatment, patients with hematological or oncological disorders often develop pulmonary complication. The patients who develop a severe pulmonary complication have a poor outlook. The causes of pulmonary complication are either infectious or non-infectious in origin. We have analyzed the etiology and outcome of these patients admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit of Asan Medical Center. Methods : Medical records of 95 patients on Pediatric oncology service who were admitted to pediatric intensive care unit(PICU) of Asan Medical Center from Jan 1997 to May 2000 were retrospectively reviewed. Results : The mean age of the patients was 8.5 years(2 months-18 years). The underlying malignancies of these 95 patients were as following; acute lymphoblastic leukemia(31 cases), lymphoma (11 cases), acute myeloid leukemia(nine cases), brain tumor(eight cases) and other solid tumors(25 cases). Pulmonary complications included pneumonia, acute respiratory failure, pneumothorax and pleural effusion. The most common cause of pulmonary complication was infection(88%) in etiology. The overall mortality rate was 56.8%. Pulmonary complications in these patients carried high rates of mortality regardless of whether they were immune compromised(76%) or not(69%). Even without pulmonary complications, the hematological or oncological patients admitted to PICU had high mortality rates of 43%. Conclusion : Pulmonary complications are frequent finding in the hematological or oncological patients admitted to Intensive Care Unit. The main etiology of these pulmonary complications was infection, which carried a high mortality rate regardless of their immune status at the time when they were admitted to PICU.

  • Background: We present here the early and midterm surgical results for infective endocarditis and we especially focus on the effect of aggressive reconstruction or root implantation after wide debridement. Material and Method: Between January 1995 and Jun 2006, we enrolled 79 adult infective endocarditis patients who underwent surgical treatment. There were 63 and 16 native and prosthetic valve endocarditis cases, respectively. They included 27 cases of culture negative endocarditis. With performing valve replacement or repair, 28 of the patient underwent a more aggressive surgical option, for example, aortic root replacement or reconstruction, or heart base reconstruction etc. Result: There were statistical relationships between the in-hospital mortality and staphylococcal infection, urgent-based operation and operation during the active phase of endocarditis. Wide debridement and aggressive reconstruction were not related to either the post operative mortality or the early morbidity. Culture negative endocarditis was not related to the postoperative mortality and morbidity. Conclusion: Physicians must pay attention to patients' medical treatment during the preoperative period of the infective endocarditis. If surgery is considered for treating infective endocarditis, it should be performed before the downhill course of the disease so that the surgical outcome is improved. Wide debridement and more aggressive reconstruction are also warranted.
