There is exhibit a degree of pain in the occurrence and course of treatment levels or oral, pain rating scale actions, such as illness, for example, the discomfort scale because of the pain "annoying", "unpleasant" "annoyed am", "painful" represents a pain scale of the order of "painful", "hard to bear", "very difficult to bear". Depression is recognized based on the premise of the situation, because it is difficult to recognize themselves. In this paper we define the components of the depression can be seen lifestyle which can lead to depression or through a biological signal. The depression index was derived from the ontology modeling to understand the state of depression. Depression ontology components and depression index will be aware of the situation based information services for depression. Combined with the situational awareness based devices and can be synchronized to verify the results of the depression index. It will be applied to improve lifestyle factors that of depression.

This paper investigated the biomedical medicalization of "depression"which is growing fast in Korea in terms of the treatment mechanism. Depression has been regarded as a mental disease that occurs with mixing various causations because what was the cause of this disease was not clarified until a recent date. Thus, as depression treatment, the medicine and the psycho-socio therapy have been used. However, from 1990s, as the brain science was introduced in the western society, and the high-tech diagnostic equipment of the brain disease and new drugs for the mental disease were developed, depression was rapidly redefined as 'the brain nerve system illness'that is easy to be taken and is able to obtain the permanent relief with the regular care. Under the influence of the redefinition of depression and the new treatment of it, recently, 8% of depression patients per year emerge as the aggressive cure subjects in the Korean psychiatric circle. However, according to the Korean psychiatric circle's unofficial calculation, it is estimated that only 10% of depression patients are receiving the accurate treatment but over 80% of the patients are not. If so, what does this estimation mean? Based on this question, this paper critically investigated the biomedical medicalization of depression.

Depression is a disease with an increasing prevalence worldwide, and is highly associated with mortality as well as several diseases such as hypertension. The aim of this study is to discover clinical risk indicators associated with depression in the occupational group of simple labor workers. This study used the Seventh Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2016-2018) conducted by the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In association between depression and demographic information, age, sex, degree of stress perception, and stress perception ratio indices had a very high statistical association with depression, and education level and marital status were also associated with depression. Obesity indices such as abdominal circumference and body mass index were not associated with depression. Among the blood information, hemoglobin and hematocrit were highly associated with depression, and statistical significance was maintained even in the analysis adjusted for sex and age. The results of this study can be used as information for the prevention and treatment of depression in the occupational group of simple labor workers in the future.

우울증은 감정을 조절하는 뇌의 기능의 변화가 생겨 부정적인 감정이 나타나는 병이다. 불안장애와 우울증은일반인구중 15%가 평생 동안 한번 이상 앓는 질환이다. 우울증환자는 일반인보다 불안한감정의 원인인 델타파가 많거나 좌측 전두엽의 알파파가 증가하고, 우측 전두엽은 베타파가 증가하는 특징을 가지고 있다. 선행연구에서는 백색잡음을 우울증환자의 증상완화에 사용하였다. 우울증 환자에게는 백색잡음보다는 유색(갈색)잡음이 치료에 더 효과적인 연구를 기반으로 하여 무음 상태, 갈색잡음, 고주파 가중치를 적용한 갈색잡음, 청감특성을 고려한 가중치를 적용한 갈색잡음을 들었을 때 의 뇌파에 대하여 살펴보았다. 그 중 갈색잡음과 청감특성을 고려한 가중치를 적용한 갈색잡음의 경우가 가장효과가 좋았다.

Childhood depression was not officially accepted as a separate diagnosis until 20-25years ago. Although DSM-III R criteria gave us a starting point and are gaining acceptances as a useful tool for diagnosing childhood depression recently, many professionals feel that additional modifications are needed to better reflect the developmental aspects of children. And because children are relatively poor in expressing their moods or feelings due to weak reality sence and/or cognitive and linguistic limitations, the author too carefully suggest that developmental perspectives of children should be considered in diagnosing childhood depression. Little is known about the extent to which childhood depression precedes adult depression and persists into adult life and about the impact of it on the personality formation. Some evidences that childhood depressive symtoms can be quite enduring make it important to make an early diagnosis and treatment.

본 연구에서는 MEDLINE에 수록된 논문의 암 관련 우울증 문헌을 대상으로 MeSH(Medical Subject Headings) 키워드를 이용하여 1992년부터 2011년까지 20년간의 연구 동향을 분석하였다. 암과 우울증에 해당하는 MeSH 키워드를 주제로 다룬 논문 3,389편과 50,778개의 키워드를 대상으로 주요 학술지 및 암 발병 위치와 우울증 치료요법을 분석하였다. 암 관련 우울증 논문의 암 발병 위치별 빈도는 유방암이 799편으로 가장 높았으며, 폐암, 전립선암, 뇌종양, 두경부암이 뒤를 이었다. 또한 우울증 치료 요법별 빈도는 비약물치료가 552편으로 약물치료 400편보다 높게 나타났으며 비약물치료는 크게 상담치료와 상담 외 치료에 대한 키워드로 구분되었고, 약물치료는 치료 요법명과 약명으로 다시 구분되었다.

본 연구는 서울시의 우울증 진단 경험률 통계 데이터를 분석하여 지역별 우울증 발생 패턴과 인구 통계적 특성을 파악하고자 하였습니다. 결측치 처리와 이상치 조정을 통한 데이터 전처리 후, 연령대와 성별, 교육 수준 등 다양한 변수에 따른 우울증 진단률의 분포를 탐색적 데이터 분석을 통해 시각화하였습니다. 특히 여성과 고령 인구에서 높은 우울증 경험률을 관찰하였으며, 이를 통해 맞춤형 정신건강 개선 방안을 제시하고자 하였습니다. 본 연구는 정책 입안자와 보건 전문가들에게 유용한 인사이트를 제공하고, 효과적인 우울증 관리 및 예방 전략 개발에 조금이라도 기여할 것으로 기대됩니다.

The debate about whether depressive disorders should be divided into categories or arrayed along a continuum has gone for decade, without resolution. In our review, there is more evidence consistent with the spectrum concept than there is with the idea that depressive disorders constitute discrete clusters marked by relatively discontinuous boundaries. First, "depression spectrum", "is there a common genetic factors in bipolar and unipolar affective disorder", "threshold model of depression" and "bipolar spectrum disorder" are reviewed. And, a new subtype of depression is so called SeCA depression that is a stressor-precipitated, cortisol-induced, serotonin-related, anxiety/aggression-driven depression. SeCA depression is discussed. But, there is with the idea that depressive disorders constitute discrete subtypes marked by relatively discontinuous boundaries. This subtypes of depressive disorder were reviewed from a variety of theoretical frames of reference. The following issues are discussed ; Dexamethasone suppression test(DST), TRH stimulation test, MHPG, Temperament Character Inventory(TCI), and heart rate variability(HRV).

Until recently there were arguments on the existence and the definition of childhood depression. In DSM-III(1980) childhood depression was accepted as the formal psychiatric disorder in childhood. As the diagnostic criteria for childhood depression is less clearly defined than those for other psychiatric disorders as well as prominent age-related variations in depression symptomatology, informations from various sources are very important in accurate diagnosis of childhood depression. Present study reviewed various assessment methods such as self-report questionnaires, interviews, behavior rating scales, structured tests and projective techniques with discussion on the merits and limitations of each method. Also several issues on the reliability and the validity of assessment techniques for childhood depression were discussed.

우울증은 슬프거나 울적한 느낌이 신체에까지 영향을 끼쳐 개인이나 사회생활에 장애를 초래하는 것을 의미한다. 한의학에서는 이를 기울(氣鬱)이라 하며 억압되고 침울한 마음으로 생리기능이 침체되는 현상으로 이해하고 있다. 우울증을 바로 알고 예방하며 즐거운 마음을 갖고 건강한 생활이 되도록 해보자.
