Purpose: As the number of people enjoying skiing and snowboarding which are two popular winter sports has been increasing, wearing helmet during doing these sports has been needed for safety. The rates of head or face injury have decreased after using helmet. However the effect that wearing helmet has on cervical damage is not yet to be known. So through this research we intend to be helpful in developing effective program and safety equipment. Materials and Methods: During two seasons from December 2009 to march 2011, cased 658 cervical injuries within 14538 admittance in medical center of major resort due to skiing and snow-boarding injuries. For survey and research model, one year before the research year conducted a pilot study. Admittance were 432 male and 226 female, advanced 273 and 385 novice. We divided them into two groups depending on wearing helmet, measured cervical damage ratio and injury mechanism, and researched the severity of damage and diagnosed injury. Each group used SPSS 12.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) to process data statistically. Results: The number of patients was 312 in skier and 346 in snow boarder. Patients wearing helmet were 146 in skier and 127 in snow boarder. Classification of each injuries were confirmed as 292 cases of simple sprain, 359 bruising, 6 cervical fractures and 1 case of dislocation. Classification of injury mechanisms were 287 of human collision, 212 material collision, 108 of slip down by oneself, 39 of falling and 12 cases of etc. In cases wearing helmet ski 78/ snow board 70 were simple sprain, ski 64/ snowboard 68 were shown as bruising, ski 1/ snow board 2 had cervical fracture or dislocation. The ratio of cervical sprain increased in cases of wearing helmet compared to non-wearing cases and there was a statistical significance (p<0.001). The ratio of cervical contusion increased significantly in non-wearing helmet user (p<0.05). However, there was no significant increase in fracture and dislocation compared between helmet user and non-user (p> 0.05). Conclusion: In this study, wearing helmet had no relation to additional cervical injury occurrence or severity among skiers and snow boarders. The ratio of cervical sprain increased significantly in helmet user with person to person accident. However, the cervical contusion decreased. On this ground, further biomechanical studies are required and modified helmet will be necessary.

하천의 기능은 공학적 관점에서의 이수, 치수, 환경 기능 외에도 사회적 관점에서 역사 문화 기능을 포함할 수 있다(우효섭, 2009). 1990년대 말부터 하천복원사업이 본격화 되면서 최근에는 하천환경 기능 외에도 친수를 포함한 역사 문화 기능이 하천관리의 주요 축으로 고려되거나 포함되고 있다. 이 과정에서 하천의 역사 문화 기능을 주문하는 요구가 증가한 이유로는 하천복원사업의 지역적 획일화, 친수(심미) 요구 증대, 지역 경제성 제고, 환경(생태, 문화 등) 가치 증대 등 사회경제적 정책적 환경 변화가 기인한 부분이 크다고 할 수 있다. 이러한 측면에서 볼 때 하천의 지속가능하고 효과적인 관리와 보전을 위한 방안으로 하천의 역사 문화적 요소를 사회 경제적, 생태 환경적 요소와 연계하는 접근방식은 유용할 수 있다. 이를 위해서는 우선적으로 지역공동체가 형성해온 물 문화의 특수성을 감안하여 하천유역의 역사 문화적 소재 및 자원을 발굴할 필요가 있다. 그리고 조사 수집된 다양한 역사 문화적 소재 및 자원은 하천사업 및 관리의 주요 콘텐츠로 활용되기 위한 창출과정을 진행함으로써 사회 경제적, 생태 환경적 요소와 연계할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 하천유역을 대상으로 문헌조사 기반의 사전조사와 심도 있는 현장조사(탐문조사 등) 수행결과를 토대로 향후 하천복원사업에 활용될 수 있는 다양한 역사 문화적 소재와 자원 등에 관한 콘텐츠를 도출하였다. 또한 콘텐츠 활용방안은 하천 역사 문화 자원의 세부적인 콘텐츠를 아우를 수 있는 테마설정을 통하여 대상지 및 지역특성(치수 안전, 지역요구, 물 문화 가치 등) 등을 고려한 방안을 제시하였다. 특히, 친수 측면에서 현재 수변공간을 이용하는 방문자수, 목적(산책, 스포츠, 낚시, 물놀이, 레저 등) 등에 대한 패턴과 지역 인구 현황, 접근 인프라(교통, 이동로, 편의시설 등), 주민 요구도 등 잠재적 친수도는 물 문화 형성이라는 측면에서 볼 때 주요한 고려사항이라 할 수 있다.

Objectives: This study aims to review the herbal medicines containing substances banned by World Anti-Doping Agency(WADA), and to consider criteria for the using of herbal medicines. Methods: Using foreign(Pubmed, Cochrane, Embase, Google Scholar, WANFANG, CiNii) and domestic databases (NDSL, OASIS, RISS), we analyzed the content and pharmacokinetics of the prohibited substances in herbal medicines. Results: Herbal medicines containing the prohibited substances proposed in Korea, China, and Japan are Ephedrae Herba, Cannabis Semen, Strychni Semen, Strychni Ignatii Semen, Pinelliae Tuber, Rhizoma Pinelliae, Chelidonii Herba, Papaveris Fructus Deseminatus, Liriopis Tuber, Rehmanniae Radix Recens, Cistanchis Herba, Ponciri Fructus Immaturus, Aurantii Fructus Immaturus, Moschus, Testudinis Plastrum, Otariae Testis et Penis, and Hominis Placenta. Of these, when using Ephedrae Herba, Cannabis Semen, Strychni Semen, Moschus, Strychni Ignatii Semen, and Otariae Testis et Penis, caution is needed in relation to the doping test. Other herbal medicines are considered safe for the doping test. In addition, by analyzing data related to higenamine added to the WADA's prohibited list of doping since 2017, we don't recommend using Nelumbinis Plumula. And in the case of the other herbal medicines containing higenamine, it is considered that care should be taken in doping test depending on the amount of usage. Conclusions: As a result of analyzing the herbal medicines which are in prohibited list about doping, we were able to know the criteria and precautions to use when prescribing the herbal medicines. Further research will be needed about common used herbal medicines and the amount of detection depending on extraction and boiling method.

This study developed safety clothing that is essential for adolescent to protect their bodies from accidents, pursue activities and individuality. Therefore, the developed safety clothing was first based on international standards, while changing design to emphasize creativity, activity, and functionality. Two suits of boy's clothes and a girl's suit were developed as safety clothing for sportswear, along with two pairs of girl's clothes and a pair of boy's clothes for entertainment. It was confirmed that the difference in visibility was revealed by testing under different lighting conditions. Second, the survey on adolescents indicated no significant gender difference in sportswear. Round shirt+shorts for both boys and girls were the most preferred for ball game sportswear. However, there was a significant difference by gender in the design of safety clothing for entertainment. Male students preferred jump suit=cape+pants the most, and female students preferred jump suit>cape+pants in the order (p<0.05). In the safety clothes with the highest preference for entertainment, there was no gender difference. All students preferred the jump suit at the most. Checking at each school level, it was found that both middle and high school students preferred jump suit designs, and in safety clothing, middle school students preferred high-neck shirt blouse+tight skirt, and high school students preferred jump suits. Third, 35.5% responded that they would wear it more if current safety clothing is improved. This indicated the necessity of developing various safety clothing for adolescence.
