The purpose of this study was to investigate parental knowledge and attitude and practices relating to infant oral health care and to promote their motivations to their children's oral health care. Authors interviewed 350 persons in Ilwon-Dong and whose children were between 0 to 36 months old and acquired questionnaire from them. The questionnaire constituted of questions about general knowledge of tooth eruption, methods of oral hygiene care, and opinions about preventive dental visit. The collected data were analysed and compared with other researches. The important results obtained from this study were : 1. Females and highly educated persons had more dental knowledge than males and poorly educated persons. But age and economic status did not affect their level of dental knowledge. 2. Fifty nine percents of respondents thought that tooth began to be formed before birth. 3. Seventy six percents of respondents thought that infant oral health care should begin before tooth eruption, but actually only 63% started oral hygiene care before age one. 4. Seventy percents of respondents used gauze for infant oral care. 5. Fifty seven percents of respondents still gave bottles to their children after they reached age one or more and 55% of respondents never heard of nursing caries. 6. Ninety percents of respondents agreed that carious deciduous teeth need restorations, and 31% of respondents thought that age two is the appropriate time for the first dental visit. 7. Forty seven percents of parents did not think that dental caries is an infectious disease. 8. Only Thirty three percents of parents visited dental clinics for examination and prevention during pregnancy and only 11% of expecting parents were offered dental health care education in pediatric or obstetrician clincs. 9. Information about oral health care was mostly given from baby megazines. 10. Overall parental knowledge about infant oral health care was not sufficient to maintain appropriate dental care for infants.

This study agrees with the idea that a situation centered perspective provides a useful contribution in understanding women's attitude on organizations. Women's occupational experiences are less related to their "femaleness" than to the structural constraints inherent in the occupational positions women fill. So characteristics of the organizational situation including gender composition and hierarchical status may "shape and define" women's experience on the job. The present study examined the managerial level's gender gap and "glass ceiling" of the corporation. According to Kanter, if the ratio of women to men in organizations begins to shift, as affirmative action and new hiring and promotion policies promised, forms of relationships and corporate culture should also change. However, the mere presence of women on workplace may not, in itself, result in women-friendly work condition. This study analyzes "Korean Women Manger Panel survey(2010 3rd. wave)" to examine how much gender gap of the managerial level persists and when the glass ceiling effect emerges. Using t-test and ANOVA, various aspects of the gender gap within managerial level were verified. The most significant finding is the glass ceiling effect starts from very low level of management. Policy implications from the statistical analysis of the Panel survey are: 1) We need to increase the absolute number of the women managers for securing middle level women leadership pipe line. 2) We need to confront the fact that the glass ceiling starts from the very low managerial level, and to explore more realistic way to break up the vicious circle for the tokenism. and 3) We need to looking beyond numbers in approaching women's matter at work. At the cultural and institutional level, work-family programs and policies, women's ratings of their competence, and family-friendly organization's climate should be considered.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine levels of knowledge, attitude towards infant oral health, and related health behavior of parents. Methods: The sample consisted of 380 parents who were providing care for a child ranging in age from 11 to 16 months. Results: Participants obtained information on infant oral health via the internet, infant care books, and friends. While showing the correct attitude towards infant oral health, the parents were ill-informed regarding infant oral health and engaged in low levels of appropriate health behavior. There were statistically significant differences in infant oral health knowledge according to parents age, education, income, and age of infant. Attitude towards infant oral health was significantly different according to parents education and income. Also, there were significant differences in health behavior practice for infant oral health according to parents age, income, caregiver, and infant age. A significant positive relationship was found between knowledge and attitude to infant oral health. Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that for maintenance and improvement of infant oral health, the parents and caregivers of infants should be provided with information and specific methods for infant oral health care.

In this study, authors predicted probability of resignation of newly employed nurses using TensorFlow, an open source software library for numerical computation and machine learning developed by Google, and suggested strategic human resources management plan. Data of 1,018 nurses who resigned between 2010 and 2017 in single university hospital were collected. After the order of data were randomly shuffled, 80% of total data were used for machine leaning and the remaining data were used for testing purpose. We utilized multiple neural network with one input layer, one output layer and 3 hidden layers. The machine-learning algorithm correctly predicted for 88.7% of resignation of nursing staff with in one year of employment and 79.8% of that within 3 years of employment. Most of resigned nurses were in their late 20s and 30s. Leading causes of resignation were marriage, childbirth, childcare and personal affairs. However, the most common cause of resignation of nursing staff with in one year of employment were maladaptation to the work and problems in interpersonal relationship.

The purpose of this study is to develop and validate the parental roles and responsibilities for young children. A survey was conducted on 301 parents with children attending preschools. The parental roles and responsibilities scale were determined from a total of 60 items and 11 sub-factors based on the criteria for goodness, validity, and reliability of items (i.e., factor load ≥ 0.5; AVE ≥ 0.5; CR ≥ 0.7; Cronbach's alpha ≥ 0.7). The parental roles and responsibilities scale include 'hygiene management' (4 items), 'physical activities' (6 items), 'survival and health care' (6 items), 'cognitive development' (5 items), 'emotional stability' (5 items), 'social skills' (6 items), 'social norms and values' (7 items), 'physical environment' (5 items), 'protection' (5 items), 'family community consciousness and family tradition' (4 items), and 'the role and responsibility of parents for childcare institutions' (7 items). It is significant that the indicators on the parental roles and responsibilities for young children were developed and verified to fit the situation in Korea. Findings will help identify the characteristics of parental role responsibilities and serve as a basis for efficient communication between parents and preschoolers.parental role responsibilities and serve as a basis for efficient communication between parents and preschools.

This study aimed to evaluate the applicability of "food and nutrition standards for child care setting in the Seoul Metropolitan Government" using quantitative and qualitative surveys and lay the groundwork for future expansion. To evaluate the understanding and applicability of each item of the standards and utilize goodness of fit as an evaluation item to improve practicality of the child care center's health foodservice, we surveyed 82 child care centers, kindergartens, and community children centers in Seoul by e-mail through the Seoul Metropolitan Government in November 2015. Using focus group interviews with directors of child care centers and kindergartens as well as dieticians of child care support centers who had conducted public foodservice in Seoul, the appropriateness of each standard was finally reviewed, and amendments to extend this standard were derived. Results of the survey show an understanding of 86.9% and an applicability of 80.7%. Moreover, the applicability of the evaluation items for assessing improvement of health foodservice practices at the child care center was 82.6%. Qualitative evaluation of the applicability of standards through focus group interviews identified four factors for extended application: necessity of a guideline for separate food ingredient suppliers, conformity of the basis and purpose of the item, consideration of contextual situations, and necessity of establishing a Seoul-level foundation. Therefore, guidelines for the standards should be suggested for those providing public food services for children. Furthermore, separate guidelines categorized by items that food ingredient suppliers need to provide should be mandatory or recommended. Evaluation of the applicability of the standards suggests that revising and supplementing the guidelines in order to extend the standards can contribute to health promotion and a sustainable environment for children using public foodservice. Follow-up studies and supports are needed for sustainable food and nutrition management programs.

To investigate the maternal and child factors associated with early detection of cerebral palsy, 74 mothers of cerebral palsy children who were born since January 1, 1980 and being treated at Taegu Rehabilitation Center for the Handicapped, Rehabilitiation Center of Taegu University, St. Paul Children's House and Pusan Welfare Association of Cerebral Palsy Children were interviewed from February to April 1987. There is no association between age of child when parents noticed the child's abnormality and educational level of father but it tend to be detected earlier when education level of mother is college or above compared with high school or under. There is a trend of earlier detection of child's abnormality although statistically not significant in case father is professional or managerial worker, monthly income of father is over \610,000, child is first-born, age of the parents is 34 years or under, child is a boy, and child has periodic well-baby check-up. The child's abnormality is detected earlier when mothers had 7 prenatal visits or more compared with those who had 6 visits or less (p<0.05). Parents noticed the child's abnormality first in 85.1% of the cases whereas doctors detected it first in 2.7% and this percentage was not different whether the child had periodic well-baby check-up or not. The first physician's diagnosis of the children was cerebral palsy in 36.5% and the rest was normal, need for observation, uncertain, etc. Parents took the child to doctor for diagnosis 2-3 months after they noticed the child's abnormality and after the child was diagnosed as cerebral palsy parents either took no therapeutic measure or brought the child to physiotherapy or acupuncture or gave herb medicine before they started specific rehabilitative therapy. For early detection of the cerebral palsy children, teaching of evaluation method for child development should be reinforced both in medical school and clinical training course and should train the specialist for diagnosis and treatment of crippling conditions. Also, public education is needed for the importance of early detection of crippling conditions and currently available methods for diagnosis and treatment.

성장발육하는 시기에 영양과 성장하는 아동들의 체위와는 밀접한 관계가 있고 또한 영양부족과 그로 말미암아 자라나는 이학적 소견과도 불가분의 관계가 있기 때문에 그동안 우리나라에서 부분적, 단편적으로 연구 발표된 문헌을 중심으로 그를 검토 고찰하여 보았다. 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 우리나라 아동들이 출생후 6개월까지는 주로 모유에 의존하고, 약간이 인공영양에 의존하고 있는데, 이 시기에는 다른 선진제국의 어린이들의 성장발육과의 별 차이가 없었다. 그러나 이유기인 $6{\sim}30$개월 사이에는 우리나라 어머니들의 이유에 대한 지식이 빈약하고 이들 음식물을 그대로 아기들에게 적용하기 힘든 이유등으로 아이들에게 보급해서 주는 음식물이 빈약함으로 말미암아 다른 선진제국 아이들에 비해서 이 시기에 체위가 많이 떨어지고 빈혈현상을 나타내는 것을 볼 수 있다. 이때 고양군에서 농민의 아동들에 대해서 시행한 영양조사 내용을 보면, 전체 칼로리도 부족되고 특히 단백질, 철분, 칼슘, 비타민 A, B복합제가 전반적으로 부족되는 것을 알았다. 이는 어머니들의 육아와 이유식에 대한 지식의 결집도 중요한 역할을 했겠거니와 더욱더 중요한것은 우리나라 어른들의 식습관이, 민족적 전통적으로 짜고, 매웁고, 딱딱해서 이를 아기들에게 그대로 적응해서 먹이기가 힘든 것도 더 중요한 이유가 된다. 어른들을 위한 음식물에도 맵지 않고, 짜지 않으며, 아기들도 즐겨 먹을 수 있는 유동식 혹은 반유동식으로 된 영양가치가 좋은 음식물을 발전시켜 애용하도록 하는 것이 민족적인 긴급한 과제라고 하겠다. 그렇지 않으면 선진제국 모양으로 이유기에 있는 아이들을 위해서 아이들이 즐겨 먹을 수 있는 이유식을 크게 발전시켜서 이유기의 아이들에게 저렴하게 공급할 수 있는 생산공장과 제도의 마련이 긴급하다고 하겠다. 우리 민족의 체위를 향상 시키는데 영양학자와 영양사들에게 기대 하는 바가 크다. 육아하는 어머니의 교육정도와경제적인 면이 아기 체위에 주는 영향에 대한 연구에서는 교육정도가 높고, 경제적으로 좋은 위치에 있는 엄마가, 교육정도가 낮고 경제적으로 가난한 위치에 있는 어머니보다 아이들 체위에 훨씬 좋게 기를 수 있다는 것을 알았다. 특히 이유기에 들어간 6개월 이후에 체위 격차가 심한 것을 볼 때 보충해 주는 음식물의 적절한 보급이 얼마나 필요한가를 말해 주는 것이며 이에는 어머니의 교양과 열의와 경제적 뒷받침이 얼마나 필요하다는 것을 말해주는 것이다. 지역별로 서울에서 부유층 가정과 학교 아동, 농촌 지역 가정과 학교아동, 강원도 산간지역 가정과 학교 아등으로 나누어서 자라나는 아동들의 체위와 이학적 소친을 연구 조사한 바로는 서울 부유층이 제일 좋고 그 다음이 서울 빈한층, 강원도 산간지역 아동의 순으로 좋았으며 농촌지역 아종은 체위가 가장 떨어졌다. 구각증, 구내염등은 강원도 산간지역 아동에 제일 많고, 다음이 농촌지역, 서울 판자촌지역의 순으로 많으며 서울부유충지역이 가장 적어서 이는 산간일수록 또 는 빈한할수록 등물성단백질이 부족되는 것을 말해 주는 것이다. 지역별 혈색소치는 109gm/100ml 이하인 경우가 서울 빈한층가정 아동에 제일 많아서 51.7%나 되며 다음이 산간지역가정, 농촌지역가정의 순으로 많으며 서울부유층가정 아동은 2.2%에 지나지 않는다. 한국아등의 체위와 일본아동의 체위를 비교해 본 바로는 출생 후 약 12개월까지는 별차가 없지만 그후로는 점차로 그 격차가 심해져서 $12{\sim}15$세 사이에 평균체중면에서 5kg정도, 신장면에서 5cm정도의 큰 격차를 나타냈다. 그러나 그후로 성인이 되어감에 따라서 그 격차는 좁아졌다. 이는 일본국이 경제적으로 우리보다 우위에 있음에 따라서 아이들 성장에 필요한 영양분을 적기에 적당하게 공급해 주었기 때문이며 우리는 많은아이들이 가만하기 때문에 그 나이에 맞는 영양분 보급을 적당히 하지 못한 결과로 생각할 수 밖에 없다. 한국 아동의 발육표준치를 1965년초에 측정한 것과 1975년도에 측정한 것을 비교해 본 결과 1975년 치는 1965년도치에 비해 체중과 신장 면에서 상당히 증가하였다. 이는 우리라라 경제상태가 좋아지면서 굶는 아이들이 적어지거나 없어졌을 뿐만 아니라 식품 내용이 개선된 때문으로 해석된다. 따라서 민족의 체위가 개선되고 향상되려면 제일 먼저 해결되어야 할 문제는 국가의 경제력이 향상될뿐만 아니라 빈부의 격차가 적어져서 우리나라에 생을 받은 사람은 누구나 굶는 자가 없이 균형 있는 영양분을 충분히 섭취 할 수 있는기회를 갖도록 되어야 하겠다. 영양학자와 식품관리자들은 우러나라 아이들이 타고난 체위의 잠재성을 충분히 키우기 위해서 어떠한 음식물이 얼마나 필요한지 계산하여 이를 작물로 충분히 충당할 수 있도륵 계획해서 농수산물을 생산하도록 해야겠다. 영양학자들은 우리 민족의 음식물을 개선해서 아기들이 즐겨 먹을 수 있는 어른들의 음식물, 영양식을 발전시켜 이유기에 받는 우리 어린아기들의 수난을 조속히 극복하는 것이 바람직하다. 또한 영양에 대한 교육을 국민학교, 중학교 교과과정에 많이 넣어서 교육하고 영양에 대한 교육과 보급을 조직적으로, 신문, 라디오, 텔레비젼등을 통해서 성인교육을 강화해서 모든 국민들이 적은 돈을 가지고도 보다 나은 영양물을 구해서 섭취할 수 있는 지혜를 가지도록 해야겠다. 국민학교 재학중 및 졸업시기를 전후딘서 체위가 많이 떨어지며 그 영향이 일생동안 간다는 것을 감안할 때 국민학교에서 점심 한끼라도 영양식을 보급해서 우리 국민체위 향상을 위해서 나라에서 직접적으로 공헌하는 바가 있었으면 한다.

The purpose of this study was to examine parental perceptions on the importance, performance level, and satisfaction with foodservice quality at daycare centers in the Compensation and Welfare Service institute. The questionnaire was developed to measure thirty-two attributes of foodservice operations are administered to 598 parents and 23 foodservice supervisors from June 22, 2009 to July 10, 2009. The parents placed a high importance on the need for foodservices, earning 4.70 points out of 5 points. Their perceptions of foodservice quality menu, foodservice ingredients and effects, facilities, sanitation, and service scored even higher than performance. The overall satisfaction level for foodservice compared to performance was 4.33 and 4.03 points out of 5 points, respectively. Multiple regression analysis indicated that 98.6% of the variance in parents' overall satisfaction scores was explained by six dimensions.

Bronchoplastlc procedures including sleeve lobectomy were initially introduced for patients whose pulmonary function was insufficient to tolerate pneumonectomy In more recent years, sleeve lobectomy has evolved as an alternative to pneumonectomy in carefully selected cases of bronchogenic carcinoma, especially for centrally located lesions. Between 1992 and 1995, bronchoplastic procedures for bronchogenic carcinoma were performed in 15 patients and the majority of operative procedures were sleeve lobectomy (W: 12). All procedures were considered as complete and potentially curative. Mean age was 62.3 years (range 46 to 70 years) and there were 12 males and 3 females. Of 15 patiients, 7 underwent right upper sleeve, 2 underwent right lower sleeve, 5 underwent left upper sleeve, and 1 underwent right sleeve pneumonectomy. Postoperative staging was , stage I in 3, stage ll in 8, stage llla in 3 and stage lII in 1. The postoperative complications included anastomosis site obstruction due to granulation tissue in 1, local recurrence in 3, and wound infection in 1 There were 1 operative death due to sepsis and 2 late deaths. The three-year survival rate was 80%. The significant correlation was observed (r=0.11) between the predicted FEVI (1.851 L) and measured FEVI (1 762L). In conclusion, bronchoplastic procedure will have better prognosis than pneumonectomy in selected lung cancer patients because of preserving good function in remnant lung.
