Paragonimiasis is a food-borne parasitic zoonosis caused by infection with lung flukes of the genus Paragonimus. In Vietnam, research on Paragonimus and paragonimiasis has been conducted in northern and central regions of the country. Using a combination of morphological and molecular methods, 7 Paragonimus species, namely P. heterotremus, P. westermani, P. skrjabini, P. vietnamensis, P. proliferus, P. bangkokenis, and P. harinasutai, have been identified in Vietnam. Of these, the first 3, P. heterotremus, P. westermani, and P. skrjabini, are known to infect humans in other countries. However, in Vietnam, only P. heterotremus, found in some northern provinces, has been shown to infect humans. Even nowadays, local people in some northern provinces, such as Lai Chau and Yen Bai, are still suffering from P. heterotremus infection. In some provinces of central Vietnam, the prevalence and infection intensity of P. westermani metacercariae in freshwater crabs (the second intermediate hosts) are extremely high, but human cases have not been reported. Likewise, although P. skrjabini was found in Thanh Hoa Province, its pathogenicity to humans in Vietnam still remains uncertain. The results of molecular phylogenetic analyses of Vietnamese Paragonimus species provides new insights on the phylogeny and taxonomy of the genus Paragonimus. Comprehensive molecular epidemiological and geobiological studies on the genus in Vietnam and adjacent countries are needed to clarify the biodiversity and public health significance of the lung flukes.

본 논문은 베트남 63개 지방성들의 정치행정 및 경제 거버넌스의 2차원 분포를 외국인직접투자 규모, 도시화율과 인구밀도, 그리고 북중부 해안지역이라는 세 가지 요인으로 설명한다. 두 차원의 거버넌스 수준이 모두 높은 성들은 우선 외국인직접투자가 상당한 규모로 이루어져 경제 거버넌스가 발전했지만 동시에 그 규모가 아주 큰 수준은 아니어서 정치행정 거버넌스의 악화 현상이 일어나지 않은 경우에 해당한다. 또 대체로 도시화 수준도 높고 인구밀도 또한 높아 이에 따라 경제와 정치행정 두 차원의 거버넌스가 동시에 높은 경향을 나타낸다. 정치행정 거버넌스 지수는 높은 반면 경제 거버넌스는 낮은 경우에 해당하는 성들은 대개 외국인직접투자 유치 실적이 그리 높지 않아 경제 거버넌스는 크게 발전하지 못했으나 일정 정도 투자가 일어나면서 그로인해 정치행정 거버넌스 실적이 향상된 경우들이다. 이들은 또 도시화 수준이 낮으면서 동시에 인구밀도가 높은 특징들을 보인다. 앞의 두 경우엔 또한 북중부 해안지역에 위치해 있는 성들이 포함되어 있다. 이 지역의 역사문화적 특수성으로 이 성들의 정치행정 거버넌스는 다른 요인들로 설명되는 것 이상으로 높은 편이다. 두 차원의 거버넌스가 모두 뒤쳐진 경우들은 이 성들이 외국인직접투자 규모가 미미할 뿐 아니라 도시화 수준도 낮은 상태에 머물러 있고 인구의 밀집 정도도 낮은 특성들을 보인다는 점으로 설명된다. 마지막으로 경제 거버넌스는 앞섰으나 정치행정 거버넌스는 뒤쳐진 경우에 속하는 성들은 대체로 아주 높은 규모의 외국인직접투자를 유치해 왔다. 이 덕분에 경제 거버넌스는 높은 수준으로 발전한 반면 정치행정 거버넌스는 외국인직접투자의 부정적 효과로 인해 오히려 퇴행을 겪게 된다. 또 이 성들은 대체로 도시화 수준은 높지만 인구밀도는 그리 높지 않은 편이다.

Skin cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide, including in Iran. Variations in its incidence rate among geographical areas are due to various contributing factors. Since there has been a lack of studies on this topic in our country, the present spatial analysis of skin cancer incidence in Iran in 2009 was conducted using data from the cancer registry system for the country. The reported incidences of the disease were standardized on the basis of the World Health Organization population and the direct method. Then the data were inserted into the GIS software, and finally, using the analysis of hot spots (Getis-Ord Gi), high-risk areas were drawn. Provinces that were 1.9 SD higher or lower than the national average were considered hot spots or cold spots, with significance at the level of 0.05. In 2009, a total of 9,964 cases of skin cancer occurred, 3,696 in women and 6,268 in men (standardized incidence rates of 15.8 and 22.6, respectively). The results of the study showed that in men and women, the disease demonstrated high incidence in the central provinces and desert regions. In women, Yazd Province and in men, Qom Province had significant hot spots (p <0.05). While Isfahan, Markazi, Tehran and Kurdistan provinces were expected to be hot spots, the differences from the national average were not significant at the 0.05 level. As well, the provinces of Sistan Va Baluchistan, Kerman, and Hormozgan were identified as cold or low-risk disease regions (p <0.05). The central provinces of the country due to hot weather conditions, more solar radiation, and closer vicinity to the central desert of Iran demonstrated higher incidence rates for skin cancer, so further epidemiological studies into the etiology and early detection are essential in these areas.

To strengthen the nation's logistics infrastructure, the government will also look into constructing inland freight bases in the country's five major regions-the Seoul metropolitan area, Busan region, Honam region(North and South Jeolla provinces), central region(North and South Chungcheong and Gangwon provinces) and the Youngnam region(North and South Gyeongsang provinces). In the years ahead, the construction industry will be challenged by increasingly difficult and complex problems in both engineering and management . Domestic construction industry usually accounts for the range of 10percent of a gross domestic products(GDP) in Korea. The retardations of construction periods in numerous construction works which are caused by the short supply of building materials and laborers have been coming out as a social problem in the country.

Purpose - This paper intends to make theoretical analysis and empirical test on the factors influencing China's export to South Korea, and draw conclusions about China's export efficiency and trade potential. Based on the conclusions, the reasons for China's trade deficit with South Korea are found, and a solution is put forward for solving the problem of China's trade deficit with South Korea. Design/methodology - Based on the data of 2004-2017 years in China, this paper uses the stochastic frontier gravity model to analyze the influencing factors of China's export to South Korea, as well as the export efficiency of each province and the export potential that can be explored. Findings - First, in terms of the factors affecting China's export trade to South Korea, the GDP of the provinces and cities in China, the FDI of South Korea to the provinces and cities in China, the GDP of South Korea, the population and education level of provinces and cities in China can significantly promote the export scale of Chinese provinces and cities to South Korea. The distance between Chinese provincial capitals and the South Korean capital significantly hinders Chinese exports to South Korea; Second, in terms of export trade efficiency, the trade exchange rate of the economically developed cities along the eastern coast of China and several provinces that are close to South Korea is higher than that of the cities in the central and western regions; Third, economic globalization makes trade more convenient, the average export trade efficiency of China's exports to South Korea showed an upward trend. However, under the influence of the 2008 global financial crisis, the export trade efficiency declined from 2008 to 2009, indicating that the impact of the financial crisis on the trade efficiency cannot be ignored. Originality/value - This paper finds out the influencing factors of China's export to South Korea, analyzes the export efficiency of different provinces and cities, excavates the export potential, and puts forward some suggestions for the balanced development of China and South Korea trade in the next step.

The structural and environmental characteristics of typical pig houses in different growth phases were surveyed and analyzed. Based on the data for thirty six selected farms in four provinces, Gyonggi-do, Gangwon-do, Choongnam, and Chonbook, in Central Korea, the goal is to eventually establish standard pig houses of sow and litter, nursery pigs, and growing-finishing pigs. The survey included farm scale, production specialization, structural dimensions of the houses and their ventilation systems, cooling and heating systems, and floor and pit systems related to manure collection. The survey showed 90∼99% of growing-finishing curtain installation rate was lower by 10∼20%. The sidewall curtain system, although popular, is not well insulated which leads to excessive heating costs in winter. Regarding flooring and manure collection system of the house, there was quite a lot variability among provinces, with 30∼80% of the houses installing scraper systems with concrete-slat floors in comparison with 30∼60% using a slurry system. Gangwon-do and Choongbook Chungwoo-goon are the predominant regions that installed a scraper system. A general trend toward enlargement and enclosure of pig houses for all growth phases was gaining popularity in most regions in recent years. A steady shift to three site production from a lumped system was also observed to prevent a disease transfer. The structural design of a standard pig house with its environmental control systems including ventilation and heating/cooling system was suggested for further validation study. In-depth analysis of the survey data is presented in the Results and Discussing section.

The Environmental Kuznets Curve Hypothesis postulates an inverted-U shaped relationship between GDP per capita and various pollutants. Pollutants emission increases up to a certain level as income goes up; after that, it decreases. This paper investigates the relationship between industry pollutants taking industrial sulfur dioxide omission as example, and economic growth by using province-panel data set from 1989 to 2004 in 28 provinces of P. R. China. The result shows that the EKC hypothesis may be supported in the case of industrial sulfur dioxide, and the GDP per capital of turning point is about RMB 13,548 (at 1978 price). Except Shanghai, all the provinces GDP per capital in this study are less than RMB 13,548, indicating the amount of industrial sulfur dioxide emission will be increasing in the near future. To realize sustainable development and pollutants abatement, the central and local government should adopt an integrated strategy to protect environment.

본 연구의 목적은 중국의 28개 성(省)을 대상으로 1997~2005년까지의 전통적 생산성과 환경 생산성을 비교해 보고자 함이다. 2000년 이전에 동부, 중부, 서부지역은 모두 오염물을 반영하지 않은 M생산성 성장지수가 오염물을 반영한 ML생산성 성장지수에 비해 평균적으로 높으나 2000년 이후 세 지역의 두 생산성변화지수는 거의 비슷한 수준을 보였다. 전반적으로 중국 성에서 대부분 환경을 제외한 생산성 성장 지수가 오염감소활동을 고려한 생산성 성장지수보다 높았다. 이는 중국의 지역경제가 오염배출량을 줄이면서 동시에 산출량을 증가시키는 생산 활동이 매우 어렵다는 의미를 함축한다. 향후 중국의 세 지역이 지속가능한 성장을 하기 위해서는 오염배출을 철저하게 억제하면서 경제성장을 추구하는 방식으로 경제성장 기조의 전환이 필요하고 청정기술 등의 선진화기술의 적극적인 투자와 환경규제 강화 및 집행법규의 실효성을 높여 나가야할 것이다.
