In order to verify the effects of cinema therapy on decreasing a sense of uneasiness and improving interpersonal relationship, this study carried out 7 sessions of cinema therapy and consultation with 10 schizophrenia patients. According to the qualitative analysis, the participants were found to be emotionally relaxed through improving their sense of alienation and nervous behaviors as well as revealed the improved interpersonal relationship with communicating lively and expressing actively, Meanwhile, according to the quantitative analysis, 7 of 10 displayed more stable figures than the average of normal people in uneasiness quotient and 6 of 10 showed higher numbers in interpersonal relationship measure. Based on these results, it can be concluded that the treatment applying the cinema therapy has significant effects on decreasing a sense of uneasiness and improving interpersonal relationship.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to establish scientific evidence though a systematic review, of the existing interventional methods and their respective effects, for swallowing disorders among dementia patients. The interventional methods were based on patient characteristics. Methods : An electronic literature search was performed using five electronic databases from 2010 to 2020. The keywords were 'Dementia', 'Alzheimer disease', 'Deglutition disorder', 'Swallowing disorder', 'Dysphagia'. Five articles met the inclusion criteria. Results : One study with moderate-to-severe and four studies with severe dementia patients were included. The interventions consisted of one remedial intervention, three compensatory interventions, and one comprehensive intervention. Compensatory intervention, including behavioral and psychological management, were used in moderate-to-severe patients. For the severe patients, remedial, compensatory, and comprehensive intervention were used to address the feeding tube problem. The interventions used in each study had a positive effect on the outcome variables associated with swallowing ability. Conclusion : The purpose of the intervention and the intervention factors changed depending on the patient's dementia stage. The intervention was effective when considering the progressive stage of the patient. These results may serve as a guide in designing effective interventions for swallowing disorders in dementia patients.

Objective : To summarize clinical and demographic variables and machine learning uses for predicting functional outcomes of patients with stroke. Methods : We searched PubMed, CINAHL and Web of Science to identify published articles from 2010 to 2021. The search terms were "machine learning OR data mining AND stroke AND function OR prediction OR/AND rehabilitation". Articles exclusively using brain imaging techniques, deep learning method and articles without available full text were excluded in this study. Results : Nine articles were selected for this study. Support vector machines (19.05%) and random forests (19.05%) were two most frequently used machine learning models. Five articles (55.56%) demonstrated that the impact of patient initial and/or discharge assessment scores such as modified ranking scale (mRS) or functional independence measure (FIM) on stroke patients' functional outcomes was higher than their clinical characteristics. Conclusions : This study showed that patient initial and/or discharge assessment scores such as mRS or FIM could influence their functional outcomes more than their clinical characteristics. Evaluating and reviewing initial and or discharge functional outcomes of patients with stroke might be required to develop the optimal therapeutic interventions to enhance functional outcomes of patients with stroke.

Serious games based on VR(Virtual Reality) and motion recognition technologies have been studied in physical therapy and have shown significant positive effects. These existing systems have focused on measuring performance for the general public rather than patients which need rehabilitation. In the paper, We propose a serious game of self-rehabilitation that measures the patient's current physical state to generate appropriate difficulty levels to aid patients with shoulder injury.

In this study, we compared the effect of the Therapeutic Diet and Constitutional Diet on the subjects whose total number is 65 and has hyperlipidemia by checking the serum lipids 3weeks later, 6weeks later. In the Taeumin, there is a little difference in the two Dietary Therapies. Therapeutic Diet shows significant decrease in the total-cholesterol(6weeks later), triglyceride(6weeks later). (P<0.05) In that point Therapeutic Diet shows better effect than Constitutional Diet. Constitutional Diet shows better effect in the phospholipid by significant decrease in the phospholipid(6weeks later).(P<0.01) In the Soyangin group, Therapeutic Diet shows no difference, but Constitutional Diet shows significant decrease in the total lipid(3weeks, 6weeks later), phospholipid(3weeks later).(P<0.05).

This review paper deals with the current statues of pre-treatment quality assurance conducted for Intensity modulated radiation therapy. Focusing on the issues relevant to two-dimensional verification of absorbed dose distribution, review was made for the papers published during the last 3~4 years. Lastly, the future development direction was projected.

In order to study on the Na, K, Ca, Mg content of low sodium diet used in hospital the mineral content of low sodium diet and general diet was measured at C Hospital in Taegu during June 26~28 in 1990. Results were as follows; 1)Energy per day was basis on 2300 Kcal in low sodium diet and general diet. 2) Na content per day of low sodium diet and general diet were 2510.0mg and 3580.3mg 3) K content per day of low sodium diet and general diet and general diet were 676.1mg and 1132.9mg. 4) Ca content per day of low sodium diet and general diet were 662.9mg and 605.4mg 5) Mg content per day of low sodium diet and general diet were 443.1mg and 278.7mg.

1990년대 이후 국내 노령인구 비율이 급격히 증가하고 있다. 2018년에는 전 인구의 14%, 2026년에는 전 인구의 20% 정도를 차지할 것으로 예상되고 있다. 노령 인구는 만성질환의 유병율이 높으며 이와 함께 노령 인구의 특성상 인지기능저하가 동반되는 경우가 많아 환자 관리에 있어서 어려움이 많다. 당뇨병은 인지기능장애의 주요 위험 인자를 차지하고 있다. 그러나, 일반적으로 당뇨병 치료에 있어 혈당관리, 미세혈관 및 대혈관 합병증에 대한 관심 및 관리는 잘 이루어지고 있지만, 이에 반해 인지기능장애 부분에 있어서는 다소 간과하고 있는 부분이 많다. 당뇨병이 있는 환자에서 치매 발생 위험율이 2배 이상을 높은 점을 감안할 때, 고령 환자에서는 인지기능장애에 대한 세심한 관심이 필요하다.
