This study examined the effects of a dual-task virtual reality program on the cognitive function and EEG for patients with mild cognitive impairment. A dual-task virtual reality program was performed in the experimental groups while conventional occupational therapy was carried out in the control group for 30 minutes per session, which was done five days per week for 6 weeks. The results were as follows. First, the memory of the cognitive function and balance was improved significantly in the experimental group with the dual-task virtual reality program compared to the control group with the traditional occupational therapy. Second, EEG was also increased significantly in the experimental group compared to the control group. The results of this study suggest that the dual-task virtual reality program was an effective treatment method for the elderly with mild cognitive impairment and would be a cornerstone of basic data that will be helpful to those suffering from a range of diseases.

This study conducted systematic review and meta-analysis to analyze the effectiveness of a dual-task for cognitive function in patients with MCI in Korea. A search was conducted using eight databases, and the search terms were MCI, cognition, and dual task. This study includes RCT and nonRCT published from January 2013 to July 2023. A total of 682 studies were searched, and 8 studies that fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria were finally analyzed. Methodological quality was assessed with the RoB, RoBANS. The meta-analysis used CMA 4.0 ver. As a result of the analysis, the overall effect size of the dual task was medium effect size. The effect size according to the outcome variables was large for orientation and executive function, and medium effect size for global cognitive function, visuospatial function, memory, and attention. As a result of analysis according to the intervention period, the effect was greater when applied for 4 to 8 weeks, and the effect size was larger when applied for 24 to 30 sessions. This study presented clinical evidence on the effectiveness and application method of a dual-task applied to improve cognitive function in patients with MCI.

목적： 이중언어자에 있어서 각각의 언어가 대뇌에 어떻게 표상 되어 있는가에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 한국어/중국어 이중언어화자를 대상으로 사용한 언어와 과제에 따라 활성화된 부위에 차이가 있는지 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법： 이중언어자(화교) 자원자 8명을 대상으로 하였고, 모두 오른손잡이였다. 한국어와 중국어로 구성된 어휘판단과제(lexical decision task)와 의미판단과제 (semantic decision task)를 이용하여 언어 영역의 활성화를 유도하였다. 어휘판단과제는 화면에 제시되는 두 자극이 모두 단어인지 아닌지 판단하여 신호하도록 하였고(예：원개 · 교화, 토끼, 지욱), 의미판단과제는 화면에 제시되는 두 자극의 의미가 관련 있는지 없는지 판단하여 신호하도록 하였다. (예：가가 ·제제, 아침·저녁). 대조과제는 아랍어(예：equation omitted) 글자의 크기를 판단하여 신호하도록 하였다. 1.5T 초전도 자기공명영상장치에서 EPI BOLD 기법을 이용하여 기능적 영상을 얻었으며 8명에서 얻은 영상을 정상화(normalize)한 후 SPM 프로그램을 이용하여 통계분석을 하였다. p<0.000001을 기준으로 얻어진 활성화 영상에서 각 언어와 과제별로 나타난 활성화 신호의 차이를 육안적으로 분석하였다.

Objective : The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of dual-task training on stroke patients. Methods : We searched the databases such as NDSL, RISS, PubMed, CoChrane and EMBASE for publications in the past decade. Finally, 10 papers were selected. Qualitative assessment was performed according to the traditional single-layer evidence model, and meta-analysis was performed using the Comprehensive Meta Analysis 3.0 program. Results : The quality level of each of the 10 selected papers all correspond to I and II in the traditional single-layer evidence model. The motor tasks that constitute dual-task training comprised walking or balancing tasks in 7 articles and the motor tasks related to upper extremity were selected in 3 studies. The effect sizes for ADL function and Cognitive function were 0.65 and 0.64 (medium size effect) respectively. Moreover, the effect sizes of Lower extremity and Upper extremity motor function were 0.34 and 0.22 (small size effect) respectively. The effect size of ADL function and Cognitive function were statistically significant p<0.05). Conclusion : This study confirmed that dual-ask training can be a useful intervention technique for recovering a stroke patient's ability to perform daily activities and cognitive functions. This could be used as a helpful data when selecting appropriate intervention for stroke patients in the clinical setting.

Purpose: This study was to develop and verify the effects of the exercise-cognitive combined dual-task training program on cognitive function and depression of the elderly with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Methods: A non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design was used. The participants were assigned into two groups: an experimental group receiving an exercise-cognitive combined dual-task (n=20) and a control group receiving a simple-task (n=18). After 8 weeks of intervention (2 days per week), the change in depression and cognitive functions were compared between the groups. Results: General cognitive function (t=-2.81, p=.011), frontal cognitive function (Z=-3.50, p<.001), attention/working memory function (U=-2.91, p=.004), depression (t=4.96, p<.001) of the experimental group were significantly increased than those of the control group. Conclusion: The findings of the study showed that an exercise-cognitive combined dual-task program for MCI was effective in improving general cognitive function, frontal and executive function, attention/working memory function, and reducing depression.

This study analyzed the changes of vowel formant, voice intensity, and fundamental frequency of vowels for 11 months using acoustochemical spectrogram analysis of women diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The test word was a vowel /a, i, u/ and a diphthong /h + ja + da/, /h + wi + da/, and /h +ɰi+ da/. Speech data were collected through the word reading task presented on the monitor using 'Alvin' program, and the recording environment was set to 5,500 Hz for the nyquist frequency and 11,000 Hz for the sampling rate. The records were analyzed by using spectrograms to vowel formants, voice intensity, and fundamental frequency. As a result of analysis, the fundamental frequency and intensity of the ALS process were decreased and the formant slope of the diphthong was decreased rather than the formant change in the vowel. This result suggests that the vowel distortion of ALS due to disease progression is due to the decrease of tongue and jaw co morbidity.

교육인적자원부는 교육행정 전반의 효율성을 높이고 교원 업무 환경 개선을 위해 교육행정정보시스템(NEIS)을 도입하여 시행하고 있다. 그러나 개인정보보호 문제로 여러 단체와 갈등을 빚어오던 중, 2003년 12월 교무 학사, 입 진학, 보건 등 3개영역을 분리하여 별도 시스템을 구축하기로 결정하고 2005년 시범학교 운영을 거쳐, 2006년에는 시스템을 전면적으로 운영하게 되었다. 본 연구는 교무업무시스템의 운영 현황을 분석하고, 당면한 문제점과 관련 과제를 제시하고자 하였다. 연구 결과, 70%이상의 교사들이 교무업무시스템을 1일 평균 1-2회 접속하는 것으로 밝혀졌으며, 기존의 수기장부가 약간 줄어들은 것으로 평가되었다. 교사들은 교무업무시스템의 기능, 디자인, 편의성, 효율성 등에 대해 긍정적이었으며, 재택 처리가 가능해진 것을 가장 좋은 점이라고 응답했다. 또한 개인정보보호에 대한 중요성을 알고 전자인증서를 관리한다는 응답이 많았으며, 가장 큰 문제점으로 접속의 어려움과 느린 시스템 속도 등 시설 측면의 개선이 요구되었다. 다수의 교사들이 시스템의 정착 후 교원의 업무가 경감되고 효율적으로 바뀔 것이라고 긍정적으로 응답했으나, 복잡해지고 이중 부담이 예측된다는 응답이 뒤를 이었다. 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위해, 다양한 연수프로그램 제공, 학교 시설의 전반적인 개선, 수기장부의 감축을 통한 실제적인 업무 경감 등이 필요한 것으로 나타났다.

Objective: This study evaluated the effects of a non-face-to-face obesity management program, implemented during the pandemic. Methods: The non-face-to-face obesity management program used the Intervention mapping protocol (IMP). The program was put into effect over the course of eight weeks, from September 14 to November 13, 2020 in 48 overweight and obese adults, who applied to participate through the Daegu Citizen Health Support Center. Results: IMP was first a needs assessment was conducted; second, goal setting for behavior change was established; third, evidence-based selection of arbitration method and performance strategy was performed; fourth, program design and validation; fifth, the program was run; and sixth, the results were evaluated. The average weight after participation in the program was reduced by 1.2kg, average WC decreased by 3cm, and average BMI decreased by 0.8kg/m² (p<0.05). The results of the health behavior survey showed a positive improvement in lifestyle factors, including average daily intake calories, fruit intake, and time spent in walking exercise before and after participation in the program. A statistically significant difference was seen (p<0.05). The satisfaction level for program process evaluation was high, at 4.57±0.63 point. Conclusion: The non-face-to-face obesity management program was useful for obesity management for adults in communities, as it enables individual counseling by experts and active participation through self-body measurement and recording without restriction by time and place. However, the program had some restrictions on participation that may relate to the age of the subject, such as skill and comfort in using a mobile app.
