Objectives : Objectives of this study was to explore the relationships between anger, alexithymia and premenstrual syndrome(PMS). Methods The subjects included 125 women with PMS and 58 women with non-PMS assessed by Daily record of Severity of Problems(DRSP) and Shortened Premestrual Assessment Form(SPAE). Anger level was assessed by anger expression scale. The level of alexithymia was assessed by Toronto alexithymia scale. We compared the scores of anger, alexithymia between PMS group and no-PMS group. Results : The mean scores of anger in(p=0.04), anger total(p=0.01) were significantly higher in women with PMS compared to control subjects. and the mean scores of alexithymia(p=0.04) were also significantly higher in women with PMS compared to control subjects. Conclusions : This study showed that the level of anger and alexithymia could be higher in women with PMS compared to control subjects, and that symptoms of PMS could be associated with anger and alexithymia. therefore, It would be better to consider the level of anger and alexithymia in treating and evaluating women with PMS.

This study was conducted to investigate the prevalence of metabolic syndrome(MS) and characteristics of nutrient intake in MS subjects by gender and age. The subjects were 957(447 men and 510 women) who visited medical center for regular medical check-up. The diagnosis of MS subjects was adapted from NCEP-ATPIII with blood glucose, cholesterol, triglycerides, and blood pressure and Aisa-Pacific definition with waist-circumference. Anthropometric and biochemical measurements were practiced, then the nutrient intake analysis was assessed through the 24-hour recall method. The MS prevalence of all subjects was 10.3% in average -17% in men and 4.5% in women, respectively. The energy intake in MS group was 2,047.1 kcal and 1,699.5 kcal for normal group, showing significantly higher in MS compared to normal subjects. For intakes of animal fat, cholesterol, and sodium, MS group were significantly higher than normal group. In respect of gender, men subjects of MS group showed significantly higher nutrient intakes than normal group for energy, fat, and cholesterol. Women subjects of MS group showed higher intakes for energy, carbohydrate, and protein. For 30s, MS group showed higher intakes of energy, animal fat, and cholesterol than normal group. Fat and cholesterol for 40s and energy, carbohydrate, vegetable fat for 50s, MS group showed significantly higher intakes than normal group. In summary, MS group showed higher intakes of energy, animal fat, cholesterol, and sodium than normal group.

대사증후군이란 비만, 당대사이상, 고혈압 및 이상지질혈증과 같은 다양한 대사이상이 한 개인에게 중복되어 나타나는 상태를 지칭하는 것이다. 그러므로 대사증후군도 생활 습관병 중의 하나라고 생각할 수 있다. 대사증후군을 막을 수 있는 가장 경제적이면서도 효육적인 방법으로는 적절한 운동과 식사요법이라는 건강한 생활습관을 유지하여 적정한 체중을 유지하는 기초적인 건강수칙을 실천하는 것이 무엇보다 중요하다.

The syndromic surveillance system is designed to identify illness clusters before diagnoses are confirmed and reported to public health agencies, to provide rapid public health response, and thereby to reduce morbidity and mortality. Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (KCDC) has implemented the emergency department-based syndromic surveillance system. To design upgraded and enhanced functions of the current syndromic surveillance system in KCDC for the early warning of adverse disease events, we surveyed many papers. This paper describes the operation status of syndromic surveillance system in other countries and the improvement of the syndromic surveillance system in KCDC.

구강내 작열감 증후군은 객관적 징후없이 구강점막에 작열감을 나타내는 만성동통장애이다. 다양한 원인요소들이 제시되어 있지만, 이러한 요소들의 관련성에 대해서는 아직 분명하지 않은 실정이다. 그러므로, 이러한 구강내 기능이상의 근본적이고 효과적인 치료를 위해서는 다양한 임상적 관찰과 원인요소의 분석등이 계속 연구 조사되어져야 할 것이다. 저자는 구강내 작열감 증후군의 증상을 호소하는 112명의 환자의 임상적 특징에 대해 조사하고자, 환자군과 대조군에 대해 구강내 작열감 증후군에 관한 설문조사 및 구강검사와 혈액학적 검사를 시행하였으며, 점도계를 사용하여 구강내 작열감 증후군 환자의 자극이 전타액의 점도를 측정하였다. 또한, 환자의 심리적 요인을 파악하고자 간이정신진단검사를 실시한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 구강내 작열감 증후군은 주로 페경기 전후의 여성에서 많이 나타났으며, 호발부위는 혀, 치주 및 치조점막, 구개, 협점막의 순이었다. 2. 구강내 작열감 증후군 환자에게서 대조군 비해 구강건조감, 미각 및 수면장애, 빈혈, 소화기 장애, 두통과 기타 다른 신체불편감의 호소 등이 더 많이 나타났다. 3. 혈액학적 검사결과, 구강내 작열감 증후군 환자중의 26%와 12%에서 각각 혈중 엽산농도와 철분농도의 저하를 나타냇다. 4. 자극시 분비된 전타액의 점도는 40대와 50대이상의 연령군에서 구강내 작열감 증후군 환자가 정상인에 비해 높았다.(p<0.01). 5. 구강내 작열감 증후군 환자군의 간이정신진단검사의 각 증상차원 및 전체지표의 T점수의 평균치는 정상범위내에 있었으며, 신체화(SOD)와 우울 (DEP)차원의 평균치가 가장 높았다.

As smart phone became popular, a word smart phone syndrome is also commonly used among us. Its excessive uses cause adverse effects on daily lives such as mental and physical health education and individual relationships. This paper targeted to undergraduate students who are mostly using smart phones to analyze on their perception of smart phone syndrome and a reality of typical syndrome such as digital forgetfulness, smart phone addiction and dependence on Kakaotalk. It also suggested basic countermeasures for preventing smart phone syndrome. The perception on smart phone syndrome of undergraduate students using over the average 5 hours a day was resulted to be very low, and it is analyzed smart phone syndrome including digital forgetfulness, smart phone addiction and dependence on Kakaotalk is quite serious, so that proper countermeasures and the actions are required.

Metabolic syndrome has been known as a major factor of cardiovascular disease. Several metabolic disorders, particularly chronic disease is complex, and from individuals that appear in our country, the prevalence of the metabolic syndrome is increasing gradually. Therefore, this study, using a multi-factor dimensionality reduction method, checks the major single risk factor of metabolic syndrome and suggests a new diagnosis results of metabolic syndrome. Data of 3990 adults who responded to all the questionnaires of health interview are used from the database of the 5th Korea national health and nutrition examination survey conducted in 2010. As the result, the most dangerous single risk factor for metabolic syndrome was waist circumference and the most dangerous combination factors were waist circumference, triglyceride, and hypertension. This is the result of a new diagnosis of the metabolic syndrome. Especially, waist circumference, low HDL-cholesterol and hypertension were the most dangerous combination for male. In particular, the combination of waist circumference, triglyceride and diabetes was dangerous for obese people.

Objective: This study examined the changes in the clustering of metabolic syndrome, and examined the distribution of a combination of clustering. Methods: The study was performed with the data from the same 1,900 people who had a medical checkup at a health clinic twice from 2009 to 2013. The subjects were divided into two groups of metabolic syndrome and non-metabolic syndrome (normal group) and examined according to the periodic changes. The related factors were examined with a cohort study. Results: The order affecting the prevalence of metabolic syndrome by the combination of metabolic syndrome constituent factors was two combinations (TG+HDL), three combinations (WC+TG+HDL), and four combination (WC+TG+HDL+BP). Conclusions: To manage these factors, public health programs will be needed and the methods to prevent metabolic syndrome should be promoted. In addition, more study on the risk factors of metabolic syndrome will be needed.

Metabolic syndrome is deeply related with risks of chronic disease and mortality. Furthermore, the metabolic syndrome disorder in childhood and adolescence usually tends to lead to a number of cardiovascular disease in the stage of adulthood. In this sense, metabolic syndrome needs to be investigated seriously. The purpose of this study is therefore to prove the relationship between dietary habits(high carbohydrate, high calorie) and metabolic syndrome among adolescents. We also aim to clarify the relationship between emotional factors perceived by adolescents and metabolic syndrome. Our empirical results based on KNHANES dataset significantly demonstrates that the HDL-cholesterol is a decisive factor for the diagnosis of metabolic syndrome disorder. Additionally, emotional experience factors such as stress also show significant effects in difference of adolescents' metabolic syndrome.
