Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the attitude of nurses toward transsexuals. Method: The Q-methodology which provides a method of analyzing the subjectivity of each item was used. Twenty-nine nurses classified the 50 selected Q-statements into a normal distribution using a 9 point scale. The collected data was analyzed using the Quanl PC program. Result: Four types of attitudes toward transsexuals were identified. The first type (humanitarian acceptance) showed an attitude of respecting transsexuals as human beings and understanding and accepting their desires and difficulties. The second type (superficial understanding) understood the psychological conflicts and suffering of transsexuals but could not accept them as members of families or society, The third type (insufficient understanding) did not feel a sense of rejection toward transsexuals but showed a lack of understanding of their desires and difficulties. The fourth type (rejection) failed to understand the desires and difficulties of transsexuals and showed a sense of rejection toward them, in addition to regarding them as sexually immoral people. Conclusion: The results of the study indicate that different. approaches of educational programs based on the four types of attitudes toward transsexuals are recommended.

Breast cancer is the sccond most female cancer patient in the entire female cancer patient, and has emerged as the highest contributor to female cancer deaths. If breast cancer id detected early, the cure rate is 92 percent. However, if early detection fails, breast cancer has a very high rate of metastasis. The transition from cancer to cancer has become more successful as cancer progresses. Early diagnosis of cancer is an important factor in improving quality of life. Examples of breast cancer include Mammograph, ultrasound, and Momotome. Mommography is not only painful for the examiner, but also for easy access to breast cancer exam inations. In this paper, breast cancer diagnosis data mammograph data was used. In addition, the Neural Network were classified for early diagnosis of breast cancer early using NEWFM. After learning of data using NEWFM, the accuracy of the breast cancer data classification was 84.4391%.

Structural MRI(sMRI) imaging is used to extract morphometric features after Grey Matter (GM), White Matter (WM) for several univariate and multivariate method, and Cerebro-spinal Fluid (CSF) segmentation. A new approach is applied for the diagnosis of very mild to mild AD. We propose the classification method of Alzheimer disease patients from normal controls by combining morphometric features and Gaussian Mixture Models parameters along with MMSE (Mini Mental State Examination) score. The combined features are fed into Multi-kernel SVM classifier after getting rid of curse of dimensionality using principal component analysis. The experimenral results of the proposed diagnosis method yield up to 96% stratification accuracy with Multi-kernel SVM along with high sensitivity and specificity above 90%.

Because rectal prolapse in pediatric age was known to have a self-limitting natural history in weeks to years, this disease is prone to be regarded as a minor condition to the most of surgeons. But to the children and the parents who have to be suffered each time could be a heavy distress. Even though operative or nonoperative methods can be applicable for treatment, the main problem is in surgeon's side, whose preference is based on the experiences of adult patients. The authors have experienced 16 cases of ano-rectal prolapse for 9 years since 1986. Eleven of them were true rectal prolapses. In 7 cases of true type, injection therapy has been tried. One ml of five percent phenol in glycerine was injected into the submucosal layer of the ano-rectal angle level at both lateral and posterior sides. After first trial of each cases, 5 of them were cured completely so far. Recurrences were in two cases, but one of them was temporary to be subsided afterward. Complete bowel cleansing and adequate sedations were required as preoperative preparations. Two days' oral antibiotics and two weeks' laxatives for free of defecation straining were recommended after the procedure. The safety of sclerosis was supported by the experimental histology. In pediatric rectal prolapse, sclerosis seems to be a safe and effective treatment of choice without any significant morbidity.

Hospital Kiosk is a useful means to decrease human resources and to extend service hour to non-working hour for the stance of hospital and to obtain useful services without time loss in waiting in lines for the stance of user. However, various kinds of information kiosks are respectively installed with independent functions, and they have bad usability due to complexity in manipulate and unclear information architecture. In this paper, we tried to analyze usability and respective functions of each kiosk and aimed to suggest alternative information architecture for the integrated hospital kiosk. We categorized users as patient, guardian and visitor and we conducted usability test and in-depth interview with each group of users. based on result analysis from the research, we could suggest proper information architecture for the integrated user centered hospital kiosk. The new information architecture for the integrated hospital kiosk has better accessibility to the menus which reflects users's preemptive needs and it includes more specific information that can support user tasks.

Neurogenic tumors of the brachial plexus region are relatively rare. We report a recent experience of schwannoma of the right brachial plexus in the inferior trunk, which was successfully treated by microsurgical resection. A 38-year- old man presented a dysesthetic pain in the supraclavicular area and the right forearm of C6, 7 dermatome. Rubbery hard mass was palpated in the right supraclavicular area and magnetic resonance imaging showed a well circumscribed, well enhanced ovoid mass with cystic degeneration on the right brachial plexus portion. The patient underwent complete removal of the mass through the anterior cervicothoracic (modified Dartevelle) approach. At the postoperative 3 months, there is no neurologic deficit.

2001년 9 11 테러 이후 미국에서 탄저균을 이용한 생물테러가 발생한 이래 미국을 비롯한 여러 나라에서는 생물무기 및 생물테러에 대한 대응방안들이 준비되고 있다. 따라서 이런 대응방안과 더불어 생물무기를 쓰는 테러리스트의 행동과 위협에 대비를 할 필요가 있다. 생물테러 전염병은 치명률이 높고, 인간 상호간에 전염이 용이하며 치료하기가 어려우므로, 인명의 손실을 최소화하기 위해서는 보건의료기관 등에서 근무하는 보건의료인이 생물테러로 의심되는 병원체 및 전염병을 조기에 인지하는 것이 가장 중요하다. 따라서 보건분야 전문가들은 환자나 일반 대중, 그리고 다른 보건전문가들에게 생물무기와 생물테러에 의해 퍼질 가능성이 있는 질병들에 대해 신중하게 대응할 수 있는 방법들을 교육해야 한다. 질병이 발생했을 때 보건전문가들은 조사에 착수할 역학자들과 협조를 해야 하고, 임상 또는 연구소에 일하는 보건전문가들은 생물무기로 사용될 수 있는 병원체나 생물무기를 생산하는데 사용되는 시설에 접근하는 것을 제한하도록 도울 수 있다. 2005년 질병관리본부 생물테러대응팀에서는 의료인, 다중시설이용 근무자, 보건요원을 대상으로 생물테러 인식도를 조사한 바 있다. 조사결과, 의료인에 대한 생물테러 교육 및 교육훈련의 필요성에 대해 94.2%가 필요하다고 응답하였다. 이런 자료를 바탕으로 하여 국내에서도 생물테러교육의 필요성이 대두되기 시작하였다. 본 연구는 미국, 영국에서 진행되고 있는 생물테러 관련 교육에 대한 관련 자료와 사례를 문헌 분석을 통해 우리나라에 맞는 생물테러 교육에 대한 방향을 제시하고 문제중심학습모듈을 개발하고자 하는데 그 목적이 있다.

Background: Tumors of the trachea are rare despite their histologic similarity to tumors of the main stem bronchus and lung. Materials and methods: Fourteen patients with tracheal tumor underwent surgical, radiational, or laser photocoagulation therapy from March 1981 to July 1996. Nine patients were malignant and five patients were benign. The most common malignant tumor was adenoid cystic carcinoma. Results: Age ranged from 10 to 65 years with mean age of 45.9 years. Most tumors were located middle and lower one-third of trachea. Surgery was done through collar incision, or collar incision with vertical partial sternal division, or left posterolateral thoracotomy, or sternal division with laryngeal release. Two patients died after operation, because of the disruption of anastomosis and airway obstruction,and laryngeal edema after suprahyoid release. Only one patient died after 8 month of diagnosis. The other patients were doing well during the follow-up period.
