The purpose of this study was (1) to examine the impact of chronic diseases on adolescent's peer relationships, and (2) to investigate the mediating effect of self-perceived health status and resilience on the relationship between their physical health states and peer relationships. The authors used the first-wave panel data from 'the Korean Children-Youth Panel Survey'. The sample included 2,351 first-grade of middle school students(boys 50.1%, girls 49.9%). Among the subjects examined 48.11% had chronic diseases. Using maximum likelihood estimation with Amos18(Arbuckle, 2009), SEM software, structural equation modeling was tested. The major findings were as follows : 1. Adolescents' chronic diseases had a negative impact on peer relationships. 2. Self-perceived health status and resilience had a mediating effect. This suggests that self-perceived health status and resilience could be protective factors when it comes to perceive peer relationships more positively for adolescents with chronic diseases. 3. Resilience was directly affected by self-perceived health status. This indicates that positive self-perception about their health status encourages adolescents with chronic diseases to be more resilient and to more positively affect their perception of their relationships with peers.

In a society undergoing rapid change, modern individuals are facing various stresses, and there's a noticeable increase in mental health treatments for children as well. For the psychological well-being of children, it's crucial to swiftly discern their emotional states. However, this proves challenging as young children often articulate their emotions using limited vocabulary. This paper aims to categorize children's psychological states into four emotions: depression, anxiety, loneliness, and aggression. We propose a method for constructing an emotion dictionary tailored for children based on assessments from child psychology experts.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of sleep pattern on regular exercise and to examine mediating effect of subjective health status in the relationship between sleep pattern and regular exercise of older people. For the purpose of the study, older people aged over 65 years old who participated in 2020 Social Survey conducted by Statistics Korea were analyzed. Multiple regression analyses were used and significance of mediating effect was examined using Sobel test for 4,567 older people. Results of the analyses showed that sleep pattern had a significant effect on regular exercise of older people. That is, having an appropriate sleep increased the possibility of doing regular exercise, so the direct effect of sleep pattern on regular exercise was found. Sleep pattern had a significant effect on subjective health status, so older people having an appropriate sleep perceive their subjective health status more positively. As for the mediating effect, subjective health status had partial mediating effects in the relationship between sleep pattern and regular exercise of older people. Results of this study show that sleep pattern of older people should be considered in intervention for improving practicing regular exercise.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine if self-rated oral health differed according to self-reported oral health behaviors in Korean adolescents. Methods: The raw data of 'The 6th Youth Health Behavior Online Survey' carried out by the Korea Center for Disease Control and Prevention were analysed. Independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, and Logistic regression analysis were used to assess the relationships between oral health behaviors and self-rated oral health (n=73,238). Results:Oral health behaviors had stronger influence on daily toothbrushing habits. In particular, participants who brushed their teeth in the morning and participants who brushed their teeth more than 3 times a day were more likely to have good self-rated oral (P<0.001). Conclusions: Korean adolescents with high self-rated oral health reported practicing good oral health behaviors. These results highlight the need for the further practicable oral health education programs.

An "OpenNote" can be defined as the sharing of medical records between patient and doctors by online, and is a new trial to allow patients to access their medical records any time. To identify the need for the introduction of OpenNotes, which is expanding medical recrods, this study has researched the awareness and attitude towards medical records and OpenNotes among hospital workers in charge of part of medical servises. One of the results in this study is that recognizing his or her own records can impact his or her understanding his or her health status. Also, the subjects who were participated in this study generally agreed with the usefulness of the OpenNote and were willing to participate in the OpenNote. Meanwhile the subjects are admitting counterfeiting the medical records or falsifying them. The conclusion has been shown that patient-doctor sharing of medical records could help patients better understand their health information and encourage their self-care. When patients can access their own medical records easily, Unnecessary misunderstandings and distrust of records between patients and medical staff can be markedly reduced then it can help to build up the trust in a doctor-patient relationship. Considering not only the health utility of OpenNotes but also the impact on the trust of doctors, the pilot project of OpneNotes for experimental verification is proposed.

현대인들은 삶을 영위하기 위해 매우 바쁘게 생활한다. 아이러니하게도, 이로 인해 자신의 건강은 챙기기 쉽지 않다. 특히 치아 쪽은 건강검진에도 포함되어 있지 않아 더욱 그렇다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 논문은 충치를 판단해주는 플랫폼을 제안한다. 실시간으로 사용자의 구강 안을 촬영한 영상에서 충치, 아말감, 골드 크라운 이렇게 세 가지 치아의 상태를 구분하여 검출한다. 치아의 종류를 판단하는 기술은 딥러닝을 이용하였다. 딥러닝 학습모델이 치아 판별기로써의 기능을 다하려면 충분하게 많은 각 종류의 치아 데이터가 필요하다. 따라서, 인터넷, 학술 자료 등을 활용하여 수집했다. 이 시스템을 혈압측정기, 신장계와 같이 공공장소에 설치함으로써 사용자 스스로 치아의 상태를 확인 할 수 있을 것으로 예상된다.

How to eliminate health disparity to ensure health equity is one of major issues that are handled across the world. The purpose of this study was to examine any possible differences in self-rated oral health state according to socioeconomic status and the relationship between the two based on the data of the 5th National Health & Nutrition Examination Survey of 2010~2012. As for differences in self-rated oral health state according to sociodemographic characteristics, the women considered themselves to be in poorer oral health than the men. The older respondents found themselves to be in poorer oral health, and there was a tendency that the respondents who were less educated and whose household income was smaller rated their own health as worse. When a logistic regression analysis was made to determine influential factors for self-rated oral health status, the women perceived they were in better oral health than the men did, and the better-educated respondents were more likely to consider themselves healthier. Concerning disparities in self-rated health state according to income level, there were broader differences in that regard according to an increase of income. The findings of the study illustrated that there was oral health inequity according to social stratum. It's required to make a nationwide effort to promote national oral health, and appropriate support should especially be provided for disadvantaged people at the same time in order to get rid of the gap in oral health among different social classes, as there is a yawning gap between them and the other classes.
