당뇨병은 심근 경색의 재발 위험이나 심혈관 질환에 의한 사망 위험이 높다는 것은 잘 알려진 사실로 당뇨병 자체로도 관상동맥질환이 있는 것과 같이 대등한 위험인자로 취급하도록 권고되고 있다. 이러한 당뇨병에 이상지질혈증, 고혈압, 복부비만이 동반되어 있는 경우를 대사증후군으로 명명하기도 하며 심혈관질환 위험이 훨씬 증가한다.

By using the Korean demographic data and the modified relative risk projection model given in the Committee on the Biological Effect of Ionizing Radiation (BEIR) report-V under the U.S. National Academy of Science, the radiogenic excess risk in Korean population has been evaluated. On the basis of this risk, a safety goal for the safe operation of domestic nuclear power plants has been further derived in terms of personal dose. The baseline risk of death due to all causes in Korea and the trivial risk level, which the society considers safe, were estimated to be $5.2{\times}10^{-3}$ and $5.2{\times}10^{-6}$, respectively. The radiogenic excess cancer risk in Korea has been estimated to be $5.2{\times}10^{-3}$ for tie case of acute exposure to 0.1 Gy and $3.7{\times}10^{-3}$ for the case of chronic lifetime exposure to 1.0 mGy/y. On the basis of these risks estimate, the resulting safety goal for one year opeation of a reactor was 0.05 mSv, which is quite identical with the ALARA guideline prescribed by the USNRC in the Appendix I, 10CFR50.

In Korea, hydrogen stations are being promoted and commercialized. However, the risk assessment for the hydrogen station is not clear. In particular, it is not clear how to calculate the risk and acceptable criteria for a hydrogen station. Therefore, in this study, three hydrogen stations being installed were selected and general risks were calculated and the social risk of each hydrogen station was calculated. In general, the method of risk assessment is individual/social risk. This is an individual's death rate considering the frequency of accidents, And the likelihood of death according to the number of nearby residents. These can be used to calculate the level of risk for a hydrogen station. However, this method of calculate risks is the criteria for judging whether it is acceptable are unclear. For this reason, this study investigated the allowable standards for foreign risks and considered that they were acceptable by applying the risks of selected domestic hydrogen stations.

Due to the dramatic increase of mortality from ischemic heart disease (IHD) during the last decade, it is highly warranted to present the effective prevention strategy. Therefore this study identified the major risk factors of IHD over 10 years of follow-up among 2,268,018 participants of National Health Insurance Exam in 1996 with Cox proportional hazard model. In men, BMI, blood pressure, smoking were significantly associated with IHD, whereas hypertension, perceived health status and ${\gamma}$-GTP were related with IHD in women.

Background : Acute exacerbations form a major component of the socioeconomic burden of COPD. As yet, little information is available about the long-term outcome of patients who have been hospitalized with acute exacerbations, although high mortality rates have been reported. The aim of this study was to determine predictors of long-term mortality after hospitalization for acute exacerbation of COPD. Methods : We performed a retrospective cohort study of consecutive patients admitted to the hospital for COPD exacerbation between 2000 through 2004. Patients who had died in hospital or within 6-months after discharge, had tuberculosis scar, pleural thickening or bronchiectasis by chest radiography or had been diagnosed with malignancy during follow-up periods were excluded. Results : Mean age of patients was 69.5 years, mean follow-up duration was 49 months, and mean $FEV_1$ was 1.00L (46% of predicted). Mortality was 35% (17/48). In the multivariate Cox regression analysis, heart rate of 100/min or more (p=0.003; relative risk [RR], 11.99; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.34-61.44) and right ventricular systolic pressure (RVSP) of 35mmHg or more (p=0.019; RR, 6.85; 95% CI, 1.38-34.02) were independent predictors of mortality. Conclusion : Heart rate and RVSP in stable state may be useful in predicting long-term mortality for COPD patients admitted to hospital with acute exacerbation.

배경: 본 연구에서는 16년간 본원에서 시행한 완전방실중격결손 환자의 수술성적을 고찰하고 수술후 사망 및 술후 잔존 좌측방실판막부전의 발생에 관여하는 위험인자들을 분석하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 본원에서 84년 7월부터 2000년 6월까지 수술한 완전방실중격결손 환자 70명의 임상기록을 후향적으로 연구관 하였다. 70명의 대상환자중 남아 환아는 36명 여아 환아는 34명이었고 연령분포는 1개월에서 19세였다.(평균나이는 32.$\pm$71.9개월). 이중 다운증후군이었던 환자는 39명(55.7%)이었으며 술후 라스텔리 분류 A형이 42명(60.0%), B형이 6명(8.6%), C형이 20명(28.6%)이었고 기록상으로 분류를 확인 할 수 없는 경우가 2명 (2.9%)이었다. 결과: 9(12.9%)명에서 술후 조기사망했으며, 이를 기간별로 비교해 보면 1996년 이전은 20.0%, 1996년 이후 최근 5년간은 7.7% 였으며 둘 사이의 통계학적 유의한 차이는 없었다. 술후 10명(14.3%)에서 3도이상의 잔존좌측방실판막부전을 보였다. 5년 및 10년 장기 생존율은 79.4%였고, 4명의 환자에서 5례의 재수술을 시행하였으며 5년간의 7.7% 였으며 둘이상의 통계학적 유의한 차이는 없었다. 술후 10명(14.3%)에서 3도이상의 잔존 좌측방실판막부전을 보였다. 5년 및 10년 장기 생존율은 79.4% 였고, 4명의 환자에서 5례의 재수술을 시행했으며 5년 및 10년 장기 재수술 회피율은 91.4%였다. 수술후 사망에 관여하는 위험인자 분석을 시행하여 술후 잔존좌측방식판막부전이 3도 이상인 겨우 오즈비가 38.5 (p<0.001)로 통계적으로 유의한 위험 인자로 나타났다. 또한 술후 잔존좌측방실판막부전의 발생에 관여하여 위험인자 분석을 시행하여 술후 좌측방실판막의 교련을 교정한 경우 오즈비가 6.72(p=0.02)로 통계적으로 유의한 위험인자로 나타났다. 결론: 1세이하 환아를 포함한 완전방실중격결손증의 수술은 낮은 수술사망율과 재수술율 그리고 양호한 장기성적으로 보였다. 또한 이에는 3도 이상의 잔존 좌측방실판막부전의 발생이 술후 사망에 중요한 위험인자로 기여하여 수술적 교정후 잔존 좌측방실판막부전의 정도를 줄이고 좌측방실판막의 양호환 교합을 유지하기 위해서는 완전방실중격결손증의 방실판막의 다양한 해부학적 형태로 따른 개별적인 접근법이 유효하다고 생각한다.고 생각한다.

In the analysis of competing risks data, some of covariates may not be fully observed for some subjects. In such cases, excluding subjects with missing covariate values from the analysis may result in biased estimates and loss of efficiency. In this paper, we studied multiple imputation and the augmented inverse probability weighting method for regression parameter estimation in the cause-specific proportional hazards model with missing covariates. The performance of estimators obtained from multiple imputation and the augmented inverse probability weighting method is evaluated by simulation studies, which show that those methods perform well. Multiple imputation and the augmented inverse probability weighting method were applied to investigate significant risk factors for the risk of death from breast cancer and from other causes for breast cancer data with missing values for tumor size obtained from the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal, and Ovarian Cancer Screen Trial Study. Under the cause-specific proportional hazards model, the methods show that race, marital status, stage, grade, and tumor size are significant risk factors for breast cancer mortality, and stage has the greatest effect on increasing the risk of breast cancer death. Age at diagnosis and tumor size have significant effects on increasing the risk of other-cause death.

Background: Interrupted aortic arch is a rare congenital heart anomaly which still shows high surgical mortality. In this study, we investigated the causes of and the risk factors for mortality to improve the surgical outcomes for this difficult disease entity. Material and Method: From 1984 to 2004, 42 patients diagnosed as IAA were reviewed retrospectively. Age, body weight at operation, preoperative diagnosis, preoperative PGE1 requirement, type of interrupted aortic arch, degree of left ventricular outflow stenosis, CPB time, and ACC time were the possible risk factors for mortality. Result: There were .14 hospital deaths. Preoperative use of PGE1, need for circulartory assist and aortic cross clamp time proved to be positive risk factors for mortality on univariate analysis. Preoperative left ventricular outflow stenosis was considered a risk factor for mortality but it did not show statistical significance (p-value=0.61). Causes of death included hypoxia due to pulmonary banding, left ventricular outtract stenosis, infection, mitral valve regurgitation, long cardiopulmonary bypass time and failure of coronary transfer failure in TGA patients. Conclusion: In this study, we demonstrated that surgical mortality is still high due to the risk factors including preoperative status and long operative time. However preoperative subaortic dimension was not related statistically to operative death statistically. Adequate preoperative management and short operation time are mandatory for better survival outcome.
