본고의 목적은 좀비서사를 대타자와의 관계 속에서 비교 분석하는데 있다. 기존의 연구는 좀비를 후기 자본주의의 영혼 없는 노예-소비자나 사물화 된 노동자로 보는 견해가 많았다. 하지만 여기서는 환멸의 세계의 몰락과 함께 새로운 미래를 도입시킬 주체로 보고자 했다. 첫째, 좀비는 후기 자본주의의 소비주체의 표상을 넘어 체제 외부를 욕망하는 각성한 주체로 볼 수 있다. 언캐니의 관점에서 보았듯이 좀비는 우리가 억압해야 할 그 무엇(thing)이었다. 좀비의 속성은 대타자를 위협하는 두려움의 대상이었으며 그렇기에 반드시 괴물이라는 이름으로 억압해야 했던 그 무엇이었다. 그런 면에서 좀비를 환대하는 것은 내 안의 또 다른 나 곧 '인간다움의 근본'을 만나는 것이자 모든 것이 새로 시작되는 엑스 니힐로의 주체로 태어나는 순간이다. 둘째, 좀비로 인한 감염의 사태는 새로운 윤리적 상황을 제시하고 있다. 좀비의 식인행위는 산 노동의 피를 빠는 뱀파이어의 이기주의적 사랑과는 다르다. 좀비의 식인행위는 감염이라는 사건과 더불어 기독교에서 말하는 이웃-사랑의 전형을 보여주고 있다. 그것은 각성의 시간과 순간을 나누는 것이며 연대의 시작이다. 그런 면에서 좀비의 어슬렁거림은 연대를 위한 기다림이며, 인간을 향한 공격성은 적극적인 환대의 다른 이름이다. 셋째, 좀비 서사의 종말론적 상황은 새로움을 향한 또 다른 사건이 시작이다. 좀비의 분노는 단지 괴물성을 드러내는 장치에 멈추지 않고 세계의 파국을 앞당기는 촉매제 역할을 하고 있다. 좀비들의 분노와 폭력은 기만적인 가상의 세계를 정지시켜 새로운 미래를 가능케하는 메시아적 폭력의 은유이다. 좀비의 출현과 이에 대한 대중의 호응은 대안 주체와 세계의 가능성에 대한 열망이다.

The diversity of Southeast Asia can be also represented at the tremendous number of ethnic groups residing throughout its various regions even beyond national boundaries. What does it mean by the composite of numerous peoples? It has triggered a lot of problems in a nation or overall Southeast Asia. Among them, the most serious one seems to be ethnic conflicts having damaged national integration and caused political, economical, and social instability. In that respect, Karen people have been a minority group situated in the most chronic dispute in Myanmar. Since 1947 some of the Karen equipped with armed forces have been fighting against the military government currently ruling Myanmar. As the result, the refugees over 200,000 population had moved to the mountain camps located at neighboring Thailand, attracting a lot of attention throughout international societies. According to 1931 census by British colonial government, the Karen have the greatest numbers in population as minority and include 16 subgroups including Karenni(Kayah) and Pa-O seemingly excluded from its category in contemporary point of view. It means that Karen people should not be regarded as an ethnic group, and in fact do not show a homogeneous identity under the title of Karen. Given the situation, we need to reconsider the category of Karen. What does the Karen mean in a real sense? Previous studies on the Karen had been performed mainly by anthropologists or missionaries such as Marshall(1922), Hamilton (1976), Hanson Tadaw(1959), Smeaton(1920), Keyes(1979), Hayami (1992; 2004), etc. Most of them examined the Karen as a group and ignored the possibilities of representing the divergent identities vis-à-vis their subgroups. Therefore, they have focused on the myth to convert Karen people to Christianity, although the Christian Karens are less than 20% of total population. As a result, I argue that they would fail to define the real meaning of Karen. It has been caused us to recognize the Karen as a meaningless total entity to be accepted by all means. According to their arguments, the difference among Karen's subgroups is just dealt with the trivial matters that do not affect the ethnic boundary itself, still maintaining the ethnic identity as Karen. As we shall see on this thesis, this is never the case. My thesis aims at uncovering and scrutinizing the real meaning of the category of Karen. For the purpose of it, I will consider Karen people as a linguistic group from the beginning as shown in 1931 census. I argue that the Karen have been affected or exposed by various conditions or environments throughout the harsh history having happened on the areas of current Myanmar and Thailand, leading the vicissitudes of their ethnic identities.

Background: The Korea Interstitial Lung Disease Study Group has made a new nationwide idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) registry because the routine clinical practice has changed due to new guidelines and newly developed antifibrotic agents in the recent decade. The aim of this study was to describe recent clinical characteristics of Korean IPF patients. Methods: Both newly diagnosed and following IPF patients diagnosed after the previous registry in 2008 were enrolled. Survival analysis was only conducted for patients diagnosed with IPF after 2016 because antifibrotic agents started to be covered by medical insurance of Korea in October 2015. Results: A total of 2,139 patients were analyzed. Their mean age at diagnosis was 67.4±9.3 years. Of these patients, 76.1% were males, 71.0% were ever-smokers, 14.4% were asymptomatic at the time of diagnosis, and 56.9% were at gender-age-physiology stage I. Occupational toxic material exposure was reported in 534 patients. The mean forced vital capacity was 74.6% and the diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide was 63.6%. Treatment with pirfenidone was increased over time: 62.4% of IPF patients were treated with pirfenidone initially. And 79.2% of patients were treated with antifiboritics for more than three months during the course of the disease since 2016. Old age, acute exacerbation, treatment without antifibrotics, and exposure to wood and stone dust were associated with higher mortality. Conclusion: In the recent Korean IPF registry, the percentage of IPF patients treated with antifibrotics was increased compared to that in the previous IPF registry. Old age, acute exacerbation, treatment without antifibrotics, and exposure to wood and stone dust were associated with higher mortality.

Background: Vitamin K antagonist (VKA) to prevent thromboembolism in non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) patients has limitations such as drug interaction. This study investigated the clinical characteristics of Korean patients treated with VKA for stroke prevention and assessed quality of VKA therapy and treatment satisfaction. Methods: We conducted a multicenter, prospective, non-interventional study. Patients with $CHADS_2{\geq}1$ and treated with VKA (started within the last 3 months) were enrolled from April 2013 to March 2014. Demographic and clinical features including risk factors of stroke and VKA treatment information was collected at baseline. Treatment patterns and international normalized ratio (INR) level were evaluated during follow-up. Time in therapeutic range (TTR) > 60% indicated well-controlled INR. Treatment satisfaction on the VKA use was measured by Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication (TSQM) after 3 months of follow-up. Results: A total of 877 patients (age, 67; male, 60%) were enrolled and followed up for one year. More than half of patients (56%) had $CHADS_2{\geq}2$ and 83.6% had $CHA_2DS_2-VASc{\geq}2$. A total of 852 patients had one or more INR measurement during their follow-up period. Among those patients, 25.5% discontinued VKA treatment during follow-up. Of all patients, 626 patients (73%) had poor-controlled INR (TTR < 60%) measure. Patients' treatment satisfaction measured with TSQM was 55.6 in global satisfaction domain. Conclusion: INR was poorly controlled in Korean NVAF patients treated with VKA. VKA users also showed low treatment satisfaction.

본 논문에서는 무의식의 창조성이 종교와 어떻게 연결되는지를 그리스도교를 중심으로 살펴보려 한다. 융은 인간의 무의식을 과학적으로 연구하려 했던 프로이트의 무의식관이 오직 자아에 의해 무의식적으로 억압되어 있는 부문만을 포함하고 있음을 비판하면서, 무의식의 범위에는 억압된 내용뿐만 아니라 의식의 문턱값에 이르지 못한 모든 심리적 소재가 광범위하게 포함되어 있는 것으로 파악했다. 또한 인간 정신 역시 전적으로 개별적인 현상일 뿐 아니라 집단적 현상이기도 한 것이기에, 이러한 집단정신이 정신기능의 하부를 포괄하고 있고, 의식과 개인적 무의식은 정신기능의 상부를 포괄하는 것으로 보았다. 무의식은 자기조절의 기능을 지니고 있음을 융은 다양한 임상경험과 스스로의 체험을 통해서 알게 되었다. 그러므로 무의식은 '요구'할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 자신의 요구를 다시 거두어들일 수도 있는 것이다. 이러한 기능을 융은 무의식이 지닌 자율성으로 보았으며, 이처럼 자율적으로 움직이는 무의식이 창조적으로 만들어내는 꿈이나 환상을 통한 상(像)들은 풍성한 관념뿐 아니라 감정을 포함하는 모든 것이다. 무의식의 이러한 창조적인 상들이 인간이 본래의 자기(Self)를 찾아나가는 '개성화의 과정'을 도와주고 이끌어나가는 것이다. 이처럼 자아의식을 보상하는 무의식의 과정은 전체 정신의 자가조절에 필요한 모든 요소를 지니고 있어 창조적인 방법으로 자율적으로 작용하는 것이다. 융이 체험했던 종교란 바로 무의식의 창조성과 자율성에 의해 움직여지는 집단의식의 상들이 의식을 사로잡아 형성된 '누미노줌'에 대한 숙고의 자세이며, 종파란 바로 이러한 상(像)들이 제의(ritual)나 의식으로 굳어져 신앙 공동체로 형성된 것이다. 융은 종교를 최고, 혹은 가장 강력한 가치와의 관계로 파악하고, 이러한 관계는 양면적, 즉 자유의지에 의한 것이기도 하고 불수의적인 것이기도 한 것으로 보았다. 따라서 사람들은 하나의 가치, 즉 어떤 에너지가 부하된 정신적 요소에 의해 무의식적으로 사로잡힐 수도 있고, 혹은 그것을 의식적으로 수용할 수도 있게 된다. 융은 인간 속에서 최대의 세력을 갖고 있는 압도하는 정신적 요소, 또는 그러한 심리학적 사실이 신(神)으로서 작용하는 것으로 보았다. 융은 어린 시절부터 스위스 개혁교회의 전통적인 분위기에서 자랐지만 자신을 헌신적인 그리스도교인 으로 생각하지는 않았던 것 같다. 그에게 다가온 기독교는 지적(知的) 정직성도 부족했고 영적인 활력도 부족한 생명력이 사라진 습관적이고 관례적인 한 기관일 뿐이었다. 융은 12살 때 자신의 환상을 통해 만났던 극적인 종교적인 체험을 통해서 자신의 무의식 안에 살아있는 신의 존재를 인식했기에, 일생을 통해 끊임없는 신학적인 질문과 삶 안에 얽혀있는 종교적 문제들과 대면했다. 이는 분명히 제도화된 그리스도교의 소생을 위한 융 자신의 개인적인 관심이고 사랑이었음을 이 논문에서 밝혀보려 한다.

Objectives To examine direct causes of attempted suicides, methods adopted to commit suicide, and psychiatric diagnoses among suicide attempters in South Korea. Methods A total of 1359 suicide attempters who had visited emergency department of 17 medical centers due to suicide attempt from May 2013 to Nov 2013 were interviewed using semi-structured questionnaires. Results Psychiatric symptoms were the most common cause of suicide attempts (62.2%), followed by interpersonal relationships (24.4%). Women attempted suicide more often for interpersonal reasons, whereas men were more likely to do so for financial and job-related reasons. Half of participants (55.8%) attempted suicide by drug intoxication, which was more prevalent among females and those who had previous history of psychiatric disease or previous suicide attempt. Men were more likely to use more lethal methods such as pesticide poisoning and gas inhalation than women. Pesticide poisoning was also prevalent among the elderly group and the rural population. Near ninety-five percent (94.5%) of participants received a psychiatric diagnosis : the most frequent diagnosis was depressive disorder. Conclusions This is the first nationwide study of cases of attempted suicide. When stratified by age groups, gender, urbanicity, living alone or not, presence of physical illness, previous psychiatric history, and previous suicide attempt, there were significant differences with respect to causes, methods of attempted suicides and psychiatric diagnoses of suicide attempters.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of implementing the consensus statement from the Asian Society of Cardiovascular Imaging-Practical Tutorial 2020 (ASCI-PT 2020) on the reliability of cardiac MR with late gadolinium enhancement (CMR-LGE) myocardial viability scoring between observers in the context of ischemic cardiomyopathy. Materials and Methods: A total of 17 cardiovascular imaging experts from five different countries evaluated CMR obtained in 26 patients (male:female, 23:3; median age [interquartile range], 55.5 years [50-61.8]) with ischemic cardiomyopathy. For LGE scoring, based on the 17 segments, the extent of LGE in each segment was graded using a five-point scoring system ranging from 0 to 4 before and after exposure according to the consensus statement. All scoring was performed via web-based review. Scores for slices, vascular territories, and total scores were obtained as the sum of the relevant segmental scores. Interobserver reliability for segment scores was assessed using Fleiss' kappa, while the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was used for slice score, vascular territory score, and total score. Inter-observer agreement was assessed using the limits of agreement from the mean (LoA). Results: Interobserver reliability (Fleiss' kappa) in each segment ranged 0.242-0.662 before the consensus and increased to 0.301-0.774 after the consensus. The interobserver reliability (ICC) for each slice, each vascular territory, and total score increased after the consensus (slice, 0.728-0.805 and 0.849-0.884; vascular territory, 0.756-0.902 and 0.852-0.941; total score, 0.847 and 0.913, before and after implementing the consensus statement, respectively. Interobserver agreement in scoring also improved with the implementation of the consensus for all slices, vascular territories, and total score. The LoA for the total score narrowed from ± 10.36 points to ± 7.12 points. Conclusion: The interobserver reliability and agreement for CMR-LGE scoring for ischemic cardiomyopathy improved when following guidance from the ASCI-PT 2020 consensus statement.

Background: Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths among women worldwide. High breast cancer mortality has been attributed to lack of public awareness of the disease. Little is known about the level of knowledge of breast cancer in Central African Republic. This study aimed to investigate the knowledge of health professionals on breast cancer. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted among 158 health professionals (27 medical; 131 paramedical) in 17 hospitals in Bangui using a self-administered questionnaire. Descriptive statistical analysis, Person's ${\chi}^2$ test and ANOVA were applied to examine associations between variables with p < 0.05 being considered significant. Results: Data analyzed using SPSS version 20 indicates that average knowledge about breast cancer perception of the entire population was 47.6%, diagnosis method 45.5%, treatment 34.3% and risk factors 23.8%. Most respondents (65.8%) agreed that breast cancer is important in Central African Republic and that family history is a risk factor (44.3%). Clinical assessments and mammography were considered most suitable diagnostic methods, and surgery as the best treatment. The knowledge level was significantly higher among medical than paramedical staff with regard to risk factors, diagnosis and treatment. However the trainee group had very high significant differences of knowledge compared with all other groups. Conclusions: There is a very urgent need to update the various training programs for these professionals, with recommendations of retraining. Health authorities must create suitable structures for the overall management of cancer observed as a serious public health problem.

Acebrophylline is a compound produced by salifying ambroxol with theophylline-7 -acetic acid. After acebrophylline administration, the salt splits into these two components which feature a peculiar pharmacokinetic behavior, an adequate ambroxol and a low theophylline-7-acetic acid serum levels. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the bioequivalence of two acebrophylline capsules, Surfolase (Hyundai Pharm. lnd. Co., Ltd.) and Burophil (Kuhnil Pharm. Co., Ltd.), according to the guidelines of the Korea Food and Drug Administration (KFDA). The release of ambroxol from the two acebrophylline formulations in vitro was tested using KP VIII Apparatus II method with various dissolution media (pH 1.2, 4.0, 6.8 buffer solution and water). Twenty eight healthy male subjects, $23.25{\pm}1.43$ years in age and $64.82{\pm}6.77$ kg in body weight, were divided into two groups and a randomized $2{\times}2$ cross-over study was employed. After two capsules containing 100 mg as acebrophylline were orally administered, blood was taken at predetermined time intervals and the concentrations of ambroxol in serum were determined using HPLC with electrochemical detector (ECD). The dissolution profiles of two formulations were similar at all dissolution media. In addition, the pharmacokinetic parameters such as $AUC_t$, $C_{max}$ and $T_{max}$ were calculated and ANOVA test was utilized for the statistical analysis of the parameters using logarithmically transformed $AUC_t$, $C_{max}$ and untransformed $T_{max}$. The results showed that the differences between two formulations based on the reference drug Surfolase, were -1.64, -3.33 and -0.92% for $AUC_t$, $C_{max}$ and $T_{max}$, respectively. There were no sequence effects between two formulations in these parameters. The 90% confidence intervals using logarithmically transformed data were within the acceptance range of log 0.8 to log 1.25 $(e.g., \;log\;0.93{\sim}log\;1.05\;and\;log\;0.88{\sim}log\;1.05$ for $AUC_t$, and $C_{max}$, respectively). Thus, the criteria of the KFDA bioequivalence guideline were satisfied, indicating Burophil capsule was bioequivalent to Surfolase capsule.
