Purpose: This study examined characteristics and patterns of interorganizational networks for smoking prevention and cessation in Korea. Methods: We surveyed two community health centers, ninety-five hospitals or clinics, ninety- two pharmacies, and sixty-five health welfare organizations in two districts of Seoul in 2020. Data on the organizations' characteristics of smoking cessation and interorganizational activities for information sharing, client referral, and program collaboration were collected and analyzed using network statistics and blockmodeling. Results: Network size was in the order of information sharing, client referral, and program collaboration networks. Network patterns for interorganizational activities on information sharing, client referral, and program collaboration among four organizations were similar between the two districts. Community health centers provided information and received clients from a majority of the organizations. Their interactions were not unidirectional but mutual with other organizations. Pharmacies were involved in information sharing with health welfare organizations and client referrals to hospitals or clinics. Health welfare organizations were primarily connected with the community health centers for client referrals and program collaboration. Conclusion: A community health center is the lead agency in interorganizational activities for smoking prevention and cessation. However, hospitals or clinics, pharmacies, and health welfare organizations also participate in interorganizational networks for smoking prevention and cessation with diverse roles. This study would be evidence for developing future interorganizational networks for smoking prevention and cessation.

Margarite, occurring in an Unkyori Formation of Miwon area, Chungcheongbukdo, South Korea, was investigated using a high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM) to reveal the microstructural intergrowth textures of margarite. HRTEM images of margarite, which was previously confirmed to have intergrowth textures by petrographic microscope and back-scattered electron images, show that chlorite occurs as thin packets of layers interlayered within margarite crystals, and intercalated chlorite layers are intergrown irregularly in areas as a few hundred angstroms thick slabs or isolated chlorite unit layers. Margarite crystals observed by HRTEM consist of a well-ordered 2M polytype, and electron diffraction pattern shows no prominent streaking along the 001 (or $c^{*}$) direction, indicating that there is no significant stacking disorder in margarite. Intercalated extra brucite-like layers, which are approximately 5 $\AA$ thick, are observed locally within margarite crystals. Insertion of such extra brucite-like layer at the interlayer of margarite would result in a chlorite-like structure unit. (001) margarite layers are parallel to (001) of chlorite, and margarite layers are not extended from (001) of chlorite, indicating that margarite was apparently produced through a dissolution-precipitation mechanism.m.

This study was carried out to determine the effects of various iron concentrations on the hemochemical changes of olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus exposed for 50 days. The flounder exposed to iron concentration 0.97 mg/$\ell$ started to increase significantly in serum iron and magnesium concentrations after 20 days. The low concentration of serum calcium concentration was observed at 30 days of the experiment in iron concentration 0.97 mg/$\ell$. Serum total protein, albumin and glucose concentrations initiated to decrease from 30 days at the iron concentrations of 0.97 mg/$\ell$ or up. Total cholesterol concentration was increased significantly after 40 days at iron concentration 0.97 mg/$\ell$. A significant increment of GOT, GPT and LDH activities in the flounder serum was noticed after 40 days at iron concentrations over 0.97 mg/$\ell$ without significant changes of Al-P. These results indicate that flounder can be affected by iron in terms of inorganic elements, organic substances and enzyme activity in serum when they were exposed to the iron concentrations 0.97 mg/$\ell$ or higher for 30 days.

The aim of this study is to suggest ways to capitalize on the golden period for timely response to fire and emergency victims. To implement a system to effectively capitalize on the golden period, there is a need for policy measures as well as legal and social consensus. Precedent research has relentlessly mentioned the need for and feasibility of the priority traffic system for emergency vehicles. To this end, the present study involved an analysis of pilot cases of the priority traffic signal system for emergency vehicles introduced in a city during 26 days, from April 3 to 28, 2017. Out of 58 cases registered with the local 1-1-9 fire house, the number of cases that took advantage of the priority traffic system stood at 16 in response to fire and 11 to first-aid operations. Owing to the system, on average, the response time reduced by 3 min and 50 s in case of fire and by 3 min and 30 s for first aid. There were four complaints registered owing to traffic congestion, and the number of car accidents declined to one from six over the same period in the previous year. Based on these findings, it is safe to say that the priority traffic signal system would be effective for emergency vehicles to capitalize on the golden period if issues identified during the pilot run are resolved.

The service for waterworks is important infrastructure structuring the cities and the public properties affecting the health and the abundant lives of the residents at the same time. However, the waterworks project still has many problems in reality in spite of the continuous efforts from the nation, local governments and many related people in waterworks projects. From the aspect of the situation, this purpose of this study is to review the actual operation state and the operation principle on the basis of the accidents in the system and to suggest the policy leverages for accurate diagnosis of the waterworks project and for the efficient operation. The operation structure of the service for waterworks is the complicated system showing the overlapped forms of the relation with other various factors. Moreover, as this has been influenced by other external environments, it has flexible features that can be changed by unexpected factors even if the internally close causality has been established The domestic local operation of waterworks have been divided by an administrative district and it causes inefficiency in the aspect of the country and the local government with small sized of budget faces the insufficient investments. These phenomena have been shown in some small sized areas located in Chungcheongbuk-do and, making a realistic suggestion by the related local government to improve the waterworks operation project is urgent. For this reason, this study is to lead the policy leverages to increase the efficiency of the service for waterworks and to stabilize the structure of virtuous circle in the system. At first, the reformation of the waterworks structure should be performed after the various supports and system maintenance. At second, the service quality should be improved through the creativity in management and the consideration of the efficiency by the participation of private enterprises for waterworks service. At third, through the specialized waterworks operation, the quality improvement of the waterworks and satisfying the standard of natural environment should be related. In this context, the fundamental solutions for the problems of domestic waterworks service and finding realistic alternatives are considered to be the priority for the waterworks project to be operated efficiently.

The black pine bast scale, $Masucoccus$ $thunbergianae$ (Hemiptera: Margarodidae), is a serious pest of the Japanese black pine, $Pinus$ $thunbergii$, in Korea. The distribution of the black pine bast scale was examined, looking overall at 686 towns (eup), townships (myeon) or neighborhoods (dong). There were Japanese black pine ($Pinus$ $thunbergii$) forests in 91 cities, counties (gun) and borough (gu), in seven provinces and three metropolitan cities during 2010. Black pine bast scale were found in 64.8% of cities or counties or borough (59) in 7 provinces and 3 metropolitan cities, and were distributed in all South Costal regions, Pohang in East Costal region and Boryeong in West Costal region. Chungcheongbukdo, Daejeon and Jeju did not have black pine bast scale. All the gu regions in Busan had black pine bast scale, of which the area with the highest prevalence was Haenam in Jeollanamdo (1.713 crawlers/0.785 $cm^2$). Songji-myeon had the highest occurrence rate (6.36 crawlers/0.785 $cm^2$) from the towns, township and dong. The density of black pine bast scale in twigs was highly correlated with percentage of the sample with scale (Correlation coefficacy=0.89).

Archaeological Heritage is material testimony of national and regional history, and it is one of the tourist's attractions. So it has very important meaning and identical value for a local residents. Public concern on the heritage site elevate higher day by day. They are willing to use it for a multiful purpose, cultural, educational, and even commercial one. But Archaeological Heritage is fragile, and visitors can impact negatively for protection and management of the authenticity on the heritage site. In this research I try to compare legal and administrative measure for the protection, management, and culturalization of Archaeological Heritage in many countries. And I suppose sustainable and practical strategies for keeping integrity of heritage.

The purpose of this study was to identify factors influencing maladaptive perfectionism, self-leadership, and social support on nursing students' clinical practice stress. Participants were 150 nursing students who were enrolled at four universities in Chungcheongbukdo. Data were collected using questionnaire by from 03 to 30 November, 2022. The measurement tools consisted of the Almost Perfect Scale-Revised, Self Leadership Questionnaire-Revidsed, Scale of Social Support, and Clinical Practice Stress Scale-Revised. Results revealed that higher levels of maladaptive perfectionism were associated with increased clinical practice stress. Decreased self-leadership, satisfaction with nursing major, number of clinical practice in other regions, and social support was also associated with increased clinical practice stress. Findings indicate that specific characteristics such as maladaptive perfectionism and decrease of social support can lead to increase clinical practice stress. In this paper, we propose that active considerations for these psychological characteristics are important when reducing clinical practice stress for nursing students.
