This study investigated the eating habits of elementary school children and their perceptions related to traditional Korean foods, based on the health belief model. The subjects were fifth grade elementary school children (274 boys and 274 girls) in eight Korean cities. The results were as follows: The children ate almost three meals per day and were grateful for their meals. However, they irregularly consumed meals and snacks. They tended to eat heartily and did not eat foods that they had not yet eaten. Their meals were based on rice and they have eaten kimchi and vegetables at almost every meal. However, they had undesirable habits in eating other foods, such as fruits, fish, soybeans, and sweet foods. They did not sensitively or seriously perceive their eating habits in relation to their health. They perceived that it was very good for their nutrition, health, and tastes to eat traditional Korean foods, and they had pride in traditional Korean foods and eating style. Although they expressed some difficulty regarding availability and preparation of traditional Korean foods, they hardly felt difficulty in eating them. They had high dietary self-efficacy with regard to eating these foods, except for two items of self-regulation. Their eating habits showed positive correlation with dietary self-efficacy, perceived susceptibility, and perceived benefit. In conclusion, eating habits of elementary school children in relation to traditional Korean foods are not desirable, but not serious. They did not sensitively or seriously perceive their eating habits in relation to their health. However, they perceived that it was very good for their nutrition and health to eat traditional Korean foods, did not have a high level of difficulty in eating them, and had high dietary self-efficacy with regard to eating them. Therefore, we suggest that children should be exposed to various traditional Korean foods, along with education about them, in order to enhance their concern and motivation to eat them.

This study explored relationships between health perception and behavior of Korean relevant to particulate matter(PM) as PM in the atmosphere getting worse. To investigate the relationship in the personal hygiene dimension, we analysed the structural relationships among multi-dimensional health locus of control, perceived susceptibility and severity, and health behavior intention. Except internal among three tendencies of multi-dimensional health locus of control, chance and powerful other had an effect on perceived susceptibility and severity, respectively. Perceived susceptibility and severity also had a positive effect on the intention. Thus, to facilitate PM-related disease prevention, timely and reliable information should be supplied with the solution for lessening damage from PM, and then training for internalizing locus of control should be encouraged through eliminating fear and uncertainty. Finally, we discussed suggestions for future study.

잇몸병(치주질환)은 한국인이 가장 많이 앓는 질환 중 하나이다. 건강보험심사평가원의 진료비 통계지표(2009년 기준)에 따르면 치주질환진료가 감기 등의 호흡기 질환 다음으로 많다고 한다. 문제는 많은 사람들이 잇몸병에 시달리고 있지만 그 심각성을 크게 인식하지 못하고 있다는 점이다. 잇몸병이 합병증을 유발하는 질병의 뿌리인데도 말이다.

This descriptive correlational study was conducted to identify the factors influencing the uncertainty of patients undergoing chemotherapy for lung neoplasms. One hundred and eleven patients were recruited from the chemotherapy clinic of a university hospital. Data were collected from July 25 to December 31, 2014, and analyzed by descriptive statistics, the t-test, ANOVA, the Scheffe test, Pearson's product moment correlation coefficients and multiple regression analysis with SPSS for Windows Version 18.0. The mean score of the uncertainty of the patients undergoing chemotherapy for lung neoplasms was 2.61(${\pm}0.46$), which was higher than that of the patients with other diseases. The uncertainty was positively correlated with the seriousness of the illness (r=.74, p<.01) and consistency of the symptoms (r=.27, p<.01). Multiple regression analysis showed that the (main) factor influencing the uncertainty was the seriousness of the illness, which explained 54% of the uncertainty of the patients undergoing chemotherapy for lung neoplasms. As a result, nursing interventions are needed to reduce the uncertainty of lung neoplasm patients who are receiving chemotherapy. The seriousness of the illness should be considered when developing nursing interventions to reduce the uncertainty of lung neoplasm patients.

WHO 산하의 국제암연구소는 2013 년부터 미세먼지를 1 급 발암 물질로 분류하고 있으며 미세먼지 노출에 대한 질병 발생의 심각성은 점점 수면 위로 드러나고 있는 추세다. 본 연구에서는 국민건강보험공단의 진료 내역 정보 데이터와 2015 년부터 2021 년까지의 미세먼지 및 초미세먼지 월 평균 농도 데이터를 이용하여 미세먼지 및 초미세먼지 농도와 순환기계와 호흡기계 질병 간의 상관 관계를 보이고, 연관성있는 질병을 찾아내었다. 이를 위해 시계열분석, 상관분석, 빈도분석을 시행하였으며 실험 결과 호흡기질환에서는 급성 부비동염, 코의 농양 등의 질병과 순환기질환에서는 상세불명의 원발성 고혈압, 폐색전증이 상관관계가 높은 질병으로 판명되었다.

본 연구는 우리나라 대기오염의 실태를 알아보고, 급격히 증가하고 있는 대기오염으로 인한 사회적 비용을 산출해 봄으로서 비용-편익분석에 기초하여 이루어지고 있는 선진국형 환경규제기준의 발판을 마련하는데 그 의의가 있다. 이러한 연구는 앞으로 WTO의 정식의제로 채택되리라고 예상되는 환경정책에 능동적으로 대응하고, 우리나라 환경정책의 우선순위의 결정 및 사람들이 체감으로 느끼는 대기오염의 심각성을 확인시킴으로써 환경보전에 대한 인식을 확산, 환경정책의 수행을 용이하게 한다. 이산화질소와 호흡기 질환의 반응도에 관한 실증분석의 결과는 이산화질소가 인체의 호흡기 질환에 매우 유의적인 영향을 미치고, 이산화질소 대기오염으로 인한 한해 동안의 사회적 비용은 약 5조 3,946억원을 상회했다. 이외에 상관관계를 이용해 대기오염이 질병에 미치는 영향을 진료과목별로 분류하여 분석한 결과는 대기오염이 질병에 상당한 상관관계를 갖고 질병을 유발시키고 있음을 확인했다.

만성신부전증 환자 절반가량에서 당뇨병이 원인인 것으로 드러나면서 당뇨병성 신증에 대한 심각성이 제기되고 있다. 당뇨병에 의한 말기신부전은 생명을 이어가려면 투석과 신장이식이 불가피한 질병으로 일상에 불편을 가져오는 것은 물론 결국 사망에 이르게 하는 치명적인 질환이다. 중앙대학교 병원 신장내과 유석희 교수는 "당뇨로 인한 반성신부전은 다른 원인으로 인해 발생하는 신부전보다 생존율이 낮다"며 "당뇨병이 오래된 환자일수록 신장합병증이 발병률이 높아지는데, 당뇨병환자가 늘 혈당관리에만 매달리다보면 신장기능이 나빠지는 신호를 놓칠 수 있다"고 전했다.

This study aims to provide basic information on how to secure competitiveness of companies from a practical point of view by examining how information sharing for companies' infection prevention and service quality improvement affects revisit intentions. In order to achieve the purpose of this study, 341 visitors over the age of 19 who visited offline stores located in Busan and Gyeongnam were selected as study subjects. As a result of this study, it was found that consumers' perceived health beliefs, perceived disease infection probability, and perceived disease infection severity had a significant effect on revisit intention. In addition, it was found that the company's infection prevention information sharing and infection prevention customer management had a significant mediating effect on the relationship between perceived health beliefs and revisit intention. Based on these research results, the conclusion suggested that a company needs a series of management activities that can contribute to the sharing of information on infection prevention and customer management among members of the organization and achievement of business performance.

최근 산업사회의 급속한 환경변화는 근로자의 상병구조에서도 나타나 작업이 단순반복화 되며 다양한 작업공구를 반복적으로 사용하게 되어 작업속도와 작업량이 많아지고 운동부족으로 인한 근력의 약화 등에 의해서 근골격계질환이 급속히 증가하고 있다. 이로 인한 근로자의 삶의 질은 물론 결근에 의한 노동력 손실, 제품불량 증가, 산재보상비용 지출증가 등으로 성장을 둔화시키고 사회$.$경제적으로 문제의 심각성을 더해주고 있다. 최근 노동부가 발표한 산업재해통계를 보면 2002년도 산업재해 중 업무상질병자는 5,417명으로 전년대비 136명 감소하였으나, 이중 직업성 근골격계질 환자(신체부담작업 및 요통)는 1,827명으로 전년대비 193명(11.8%) 증가한 것으로 나타났고, 그 발생양상이 집단적이라는 특성을 갖고 있다. 이처럼 직업성 근골격계질환의 업무상 질병에서 차지하는 비율이 증가추세에 있고 대부분의 선진국에서도 과거에는 각종 화학물질에 의한 직업병이 상위를 차지해 오다가 근래에는 동 질환이 업무상질병의 상당부분 이상으로 차지하고 있다. 미국의 경우 1998년 한해동안 253,300건(64.2%) 발생하였고 이 가운데 자동차 관련업종이 가장 많은 비율을 점유하고 있다.(중략)
