  • Artemisia asiatica Nakai aqua-acupuncture solution (ANAS) was administered once daily for 10 days before the tumor implantation ($1{\times}10^6\;cells$). Body weight, spleen weight and the number of ascitic tumor cells were measured at 6 days after tumor implantation. The change of body weight and the survival rate of mice were observed for 21 days. It was used three biomarkers (quinone reductase, glutathione, glutathione S-transferase) to test chemopreventive potentials of ANAS. ANAS exerted antitumor activity by inhibiting the growth of Ehrlich ascites tumor cells in vivo. Mice given Ehrlich cells and ANAS at $CV_{12}$ and $BL_{18}$ had 57.1% to 49.2% survival after 21 days. Quinone reductase activity and glutathione levels were increased with ANAS. However, glutathione S-transferase level was 1.1-fold with ANAS. These results suggest that ANAS has chemopreventive potential by inducing QR activity and increasing GSH level.

  • 종래의 사용중인 송전철탑 암(Arm) 이동 또는 작업을 위해서는 암주재를 발로 딛고 이동 하거나 작업하는데 발디딤 공간이 부족하여(7~15cm)안전사고 발생요인이 되고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 개선하고자 철탑 암 이동 또는 작업 시 작업자의 심리적 안정감과 물리적 안전조건을 강화시키기 위해 발디딤 공간을 30cm 로 확대시킨 "철탑 암 이동을 위한 통로용 안전발판"(이하, 철탑 암 안전발판)을 개발하였다.

Multidimensional Cancer Monitoring Index Framework for Developing Regional Cancer Monitoring Index: Based on Cancer Continuum (지역별 암모니터링 지표 개발을 위한 다차원적 암모니터링 지표 프레임워크: 암 환자 생애 연속성에 기반하여)

  • Cancer is a disease which has the huge burden in worldwide, and cancer is the number one cause of death in Korea. At this point, the new framework for cancer monitoring index is required for regional cancer monitoring. Especially, cancer survivors are the important target which is rapidly increasing recently, also cancer survivor's quality of care should be considered in the cancer monitoring index framework. To develop the Multidimensional Cancer Monitoring Index considering cancer survivor's quality of care, we took into account cancer continuum which including prevention, detection, diagnosis, treatment, survivorship, assessment of quality of care and monitoring cancer patient, and end-of life care for stage. For target, components of health care delivery system such as patient, family, provider, payer, and policy maker are included. Also, Donabedian model which is a framework for examining health services and evaluating quality of health care such as structure, process, and outcome is applied to contents. This new cancer monitoring framework which includes multidimensional components could help to develop regional cancer monitoring index, and to make national cancer management and prevention policy in the future.
