The aim of this article is to introduce articles of the special issue on 'Revitalization Conditions on Crisis on Industrial Regions: Experience from Europe and the Republic of Korea, and to explore policy alternatives to crisis on industrial regions on the basis of policy diagnoses and prescriptions. In the existing research, diagnoses of such Korean regions are quantitatively focused upon industry, employment, plant, consumption, investment, real estate, and labour market, and are qualitatively based upon external environment and functional, structural and spatial characteristics. Prescriptions of such regions emphasize the establishment of a law and an institutional fix, financial supports, jobs' creation, industrial diversification, the intensification of urban foundation throughout the urban revitalizaion. In the policy development for these regions, it is required to link the industrial sector to social, educational, political and welfare sectors, and furthermore the collaboration of inter- and intra-ministry and the active participation of provincial and local governments are needed.

본 논문에서는 현대사회에서 스마트 폰 보급의 활성화와 좋지 않은 자세로 오래 앉아 있는 학생들이 자가적으로 척추 측만증을 진단하여 스스로 인지하게 하는 것이 목표이다. 척추측만증은 통증이 나타나지 않아 질병으로인해 병원에서 진료받지 않으면 자가적으로 판단하기 어려울 뿐만 아니라 방치하면 추간판 탈출증 등 여러 척추 질환에 노출 되기 쉽다. 질환을 예방 하기 위해 자이로 센서와 균형센서를 이용하여 집이나 재활트레이닝 센터 및 학교 등에서 자가적으로 판단을 할 수 있다. 센서를 통한 자가적인 진단 정보는 휴대폰의 어플리케이션으로 전달되어 척추 측만증의 정도를 알 수 있고 그에 따른 운동방법이나 자세 교정 방법등을 알려주고 운동 프로그램을 설계하는 시스템을 개발하는데 목적이 있는 연구이다.

Objectives : This study aimed to describe the use of over-the-counter (OTC) drugs and to identify predictors for their use in the elderly living alone. Methods : This is a cross-sectional study that enrolled 1,099 subjects. Data regarding socio-demographic status, medical condition, cognition, mood disorder and use of OTC drugs were collected using self-administered questionnaire and from a specific semi-structured interview by a trained nurse. Data regarding use of OTC drugs were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Logistic regression analysis was applied to examine factors associated with the use of OTC drugs. Results : The use of OTC drugs were reported by 35.4% of the subjects. Analgesics (13.6%) was the most frequent drugs. Depression (OR=1.10, 95% CI=1.10-1.87) and comorbidities measured by cumulative illness rating scale (CIRS) (OR=1.08, 95% CI=1.03-1.12) were significantly associated with the use of OTC drugs in the elderly living alone. Conclusions : Depression and severity of underlying medical conditions could be a predictor of the use of OTC drugs in the elderly living alone. The clinicians should be vigilant regarding the potential use of nonprescription medications in the elderly.

Recently the telemedicine platform firms which have been temporarily permitted since COVID-19 outbreak have increasingly provided online prescription drugs delivery, causing concerns among incumbent providers of medicine, some of whom began to take aggressive actions again them. In this study, using game theoretic market entry - deterrence model, we show that although the incumbent medicine provider can effectively deter entry by the telemedicine platform firms by its preemptive action, accommodation could be a optimal action when telemedicine platform firms already have penetrated the market with their being permitted to do business due to the COVID-19. However, for the incumbent to cooperate for the successful change in the retail market for medicines, policies like placing a ceiling on the maximum number of taking prescriptions by the pharmacists a day in the telemedince platform network, providing favorable exposure of community pharmacists on the telemedicine platform user interface, and allowing community pharmacies to participate as shareholders of the telemedicine platform firms in its initial public opening of capital, are suggested.

This study explores the way of prescribing the ethic of science in korean society in the 2004 ethical debates about 'Hwang woo-suk' embryo stem-cell study. It is the process of ethical communication. The debate includes very sensitive problem such as ovum and embryo, which is related directly with life. Particularly, this issue has many implications as there was a wild enthusiasm of patriotism in Korean society after had published Prof. Hwang's paper. This case shows dramatically the formation of ethical attitude in our society. There were included many actor's desire, interest, and conflicts. This study analyzes the process of competition to seize the initiative of the definition of ethics. It includes patriotic discourse, competition of rhetorics. This ethical communication involves the making of 'star scientist', Hwang woo-suk. In consequence, the ethics has been marginalized and stigmatized as anti-science on the stage of star scientist. This study argues ethics is not a fixed thing, it is construction of competition.

지금까지의 자축의 설사병 치료에 응용되는 경구적 보액요법에 관해서 그 유래와 효과 그리고 경구보액 처방의 선택에 있어서의 참고사항을 소개하였다. 경구보액의 적용은 소아의 설사병 치료에서 유래되어 수의임상에서는 주로 자축의 설사병 치료에 유효하게 응용될 수 있으며 특히 자축에 가장 흔히 발생되는 Salmonella, E. coli 및 Rotavirus에 기인한 설사병에 관해서 실험적 및 자연발생 증예에 대한 경구적 보액의 유효성을 입증하는 여러 근거자료를 제시하였다. 자축의 설사병 치료에 이용되는 경구보액 으로서는 가급적 glucose, glycine, citrate 및 기타의 electrolytes가 함유되는 산성의 등장용액이 바람직하다는 이론을 부연하였다.

Purpose: This study was to evaluate the effects of a social prescribing program on cognitive function and depression of the elderly in the rural community. Methods: A non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design was used for this study. The experimental group (n=76) completed a 8-week intervention of social prescribing, while the control group (n=39) only participated in pre- and post- need assessment from April 2021 to October 2022. A Wilcoxon signed rank test was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of a social prescribing program on the level of cognitive function and depression of the participants. Results: The level of cognitive function was improved significantly in the experimental group (p<.05) while there was no significant change in the control group. Depression has been significantly decreased in the experimental group (p<.01), but there was no statistically significant change in the control group. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that the social prescribing program is effective for improving cognitive function and reducing depression of the elderly living in the rural area. Therefore, a social prescribing program can be utilized as a preventive program for dementia and depression of the elderly.

서울시민의 인체건강을 보호하고, 쾌적한 생활환경을 조성하는 것은 도시공간상의 대기오염물질 발생량 저감 및 관리와 밀접한 관련을 맺고 있다. 그러나 서울시 대기환경 수준은 사회·경제적 여건변화와 교통, 토지이용, 에너지 소비 둥 여러 가지 영향인자의 복합적 작용의 결과이나, 이를 종합적으로 파악하고 대처하기 위한 처방은 다소 미흡한 수준이다. (중략)

This research is based on the assumption that Korea's social consensus among two sides of industry and government on Feb. 2 '98 was not just temporary response to the economic crisis caused by International Monetary Fund financial fund. Some arguments on the applicability of social democracy and corporatism and D. Donnison's perspective on Democratic Socialism are employed in search of an appropriate social consensus model for Korean situation. In the process of analyzing Korean situation in historical context it becomes apparent that there is embryo of stable social consensus beyond the level of tentative social cooperation to overcome the economic crisis. The next step applying the social consensus model to the employment policy for people with disability levels up empirical and theoretical validity of this research. It casts some implications for disability labour market which demands another kind of social consensus among people with disability, employers and the government. These implications include a desirable solution for hard lives of unemployed people with disability in economic difficulties and current policy issues facing Korean government.
