Purpose : This study examined the effects of an integrated management program on physical function, cognitive function, and depression in patients with subacute stroke. Methods : A nonequivalent control group design was adopted. The participants were assigned to either the experimental group (n=20) or control group (n=23). The experimental group received an 8-week integrated management program and standard rehabilitation service (i.e., physical therapy and occupational therapy), while the control group received the standard rehabilitation service only. Physical function was measured as gait speed and balance ability using the Berg Balance Scale (BBS). Cognitive function was measured with neuro-behavioral cognitive status examination (NCSE), and depression was measured using the Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II). Repeated measure ANOVA was used to determine changes in physical function, cognitive function, and depression over 8-weeks. Results : The interaction between group and time was significant, indicating that the experimental group showed improvement in gait speed, balance ability, cognitive function (linguistic ability, linguistic memory, reasoning), and a decrease in depression compared to the control group. Conclusion : These results indicate that the integrated management program developed herein was beneficial in restoring physical function, cognitive function, and depression in subacute stroke patients.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop a blood glucose control protocol for medical intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Methods: The blood glucose control protocol was developed through the following process: selection of preliminary protocols, clinical application, and evaluation. The clinical validity of the protocol was measured by application, along with examination of the effects of the Yale and the Mayo blood glucose protocols. Seventeen medical ICU adults patients whose blood glucose levels exceeded 200 mg/dL consecutively participated in the study. The development protocol was evaluated by an expert group. Results: Incidence of normal blood glucose levels (p=.041) increased significantly in the Yale protocol application group. Also, incidence of severe hyperglycemia (p=.029) decreased significantly and time to target range of glucose (p=.023) decreased significantly after application of the Yale protocol. However, there was no significant difference in incidence of hypoglycemia (p=.666) between three groups. Conclusion: Using the developed protocol as a basis for the modified Yale protocol was found to be effective in improving the state of blood glucose control for medical ICU patients and is expected to be used for nursing intervention in critical care.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic, progressive, fibrosing interstitial pneumonia with a very poor prognosis. Accurate diagnosis of IPF is essential for good outcomes but remains a major medical challenge due to variability in clinical presentation and the shortcomings of existing diagnostic tests. Medical history collection is the first and most important step in the IPF diagnosis process; the clinical probability of IPF is high if the suspected patient is 60 years or older, male, and has a history of cigarette smoking. Systemic assessment for connective tissue disease is essential in the initial evaluation of patients with suspected IPF to identify potential causes of interstitial lung disease (ILD). Radiologic examination using high-resolution computed tomography plays a pivotal role in the evaluation of patients with ILD, and prone and expiratory computed tomography images can be considered. If additional tests such as surgical lung biopsy or transbronchial lung cryobiopsy are needed, transbronchial lung cryobiopsy should be considered as an alternative to surgical lung biopsy in medical centers with experience performing this procedure. Diagnosis through multidisciplinary discussion (MDD) is strongly recommended as MDD has become the cornerstone for diagnosis of IPF, and the scope of MDD has expanded to monitoring of disease progression and suggestion of appropriate treatment options.

We developed an emergency national manual for preservation of cultural heritage using irradiation disinfection technic under flood disaster. And we examined its practicality with a critical radiation dose on fungi that occur at water-logged event in order to prevent fungal damage that occurs during submersion. The X-ray irradiation for this experiment was conducted at the Production Technology Research Institute located in Yeongcheon, Gyeongsangbuk-do. A disinfection critical dose of 12 kGy was selected for two types of fungi known to spread rapidly and are resistant to radiation to submerged cultural properties, and this experiments were conducted by setting a target dose of 12kGy at 8.37mA at 5MeV. Under the above conditions, only continuity of irradiated samples were completely disinfected. This suggests that continuity of irradiation is important for fungal disinfection.

최근 다중검출기 CT의 보편화 된 사용으로 환자의 피폭선량이 증가하고 있다. 따라서 광자극발광선량계를 이용해 촬영 목적 부위와 주변 결정장기에 대한 환자의 피폭선량을 측정하고 그에 따른 생물학적 효과를 예측하여 저감화 방안을 제시하고자 하였다. ICRP에서 권고한 표준안을 대상으로 만들어진 인체 모형 표준 팬텀에 교정상수를 부여받은 OSD 선량계를 측정하고자 하는 좌 우 수정체, 갑상선, 촬영의 중심점, 생식선에 부착하여 각 검사 부위별 노출 조건과 동일한 상태에서 환자의 피폭 선량을 모사하였다. OSL 선량계의 평균 교정상수는 $1.0058{\pm}0.0074$이었으며 검사 부위별 주변 결정장기의 등가선량은 좌 우측 수정체의 경우 직접 피폭이 약 50mGy로 최대였으며 간접 피폭되는 경우 0.24mGy, 원거리에서는 0.005mGy미만의 기준 준위 이하로 측정되었다. 갑상선의 경우 두부 검사에서 10.89mGy로 최대였으며 흉부에서 7.75mGy, 복부 및 요추부, 골반부에서는 기준 미만이었다. 생식선의 경우 골반검사에서 21.98mGy로 최대였으며 간접 피폭되는 검사에서 기준 준위 미만에서 6.92mGy까지 피폭되었다. CT 검사에서 DRL에 대한 저감화 방법은 국제기구에서 권고하고 있는 방사선 방어 원칙에 대한 정당한 해석과 제도적 뒷받침이 필요하다. 따라서 환자의 피폭을 최소화하기 위해서는 정당성을 충족하여야 하며 환자의 피폭선량에 미치는 영향들을 체계화하고 조직의 불필요한 피폭을 최소화 하여야 한다.

기관지 연관 림프조직 림프종은 비특이적인 호흡기 증상만을 나타내며, 전산화단층촬영에서 세기관지 폐포암, 림프구성 간질성 폐렴등과 뚜렷이 구분이 되지 않는 결절 외 림프종의 일종이다. 저자들은 비특이적인 호흡기 증상만을 나타내는 병변에 대해 침습적인 방법인 경피 미세흡입생검을 시행하여, 원발성 기관지 연관 림프조직 림프종으로 진단하였으며, 병리적 진단이 내려진 상태에서 치료를 목적으로 좌상엽 절제술을 시행하였다. 기관지 연관 림프조직 림프종은 서서히 진행되는 질환으로, 대부분 최종 진단이 늦어지는 경향을 보인다. 국소적 병변일 경우 외과적 수술로 완치가 가능한 질환이므로, 질환이 의심되는 경우 적극적 검사와 치료를 시도하는 것이 중요할 것으로 생각된다.

본 연구의 목적은 하버마스의 의사소통행위이론이 사회복지 실천에 대하여 가지는 함의를 탐색적으로 고찰하는 것이다. 하버마스의 이론은 사회복지실천에 만연하고 있는 관료화와 효율화를 도구적 이성의 팽배로 적절히 해명하고 그 대안으로 의사소통이론을 제시함으로써 규범적 비판의 기준을 제시하고 있다는 점에서 사회복지를 조망할 수 있는 패러다임으로서 주목할 만하다. 그러나 하버마스의 의사소통이론을 보다 자세히 검토하여 보면 바람직한 사회복지의 분석틀이 되기에는 일정정도의 문제점이 존재하는 것으로 보인다. 우선 개념적인 측면에서 사회복지 실천 활동을 단순히 의사소통행위만으로 파악하는 것에는 무리가 있다. 하버마스의 이론에 의하면 전문직 관계와 판단이 단순한 이해와 합의의 과정으로 축소되고 만다. 하버마스의 비판이론은 사회복지 실천전략적인 측면에서도 충분한 지침이 되지 못하고 있다. 특히 의사소통행위의 동기와 도구적 이성의 배제, 의사소통의 일치와 합의를 판단하는 데 있어 명확한 근거와 기준을 제시하지 못한다. 결론적으로 하버마스의 비판이론이 단순히 이상적인 목표나 하나의 지향에 그치지 않고 사회복지 실천전략으로서 기능하기 위해서는 의사소통이론과는 별개의 추가적인 조건들이 필수적으로 요청된다는 것이다. 특히 전통적인 사회복지의 주제인 상호이해에 대한 인지적 관심과 간주관성에 대한 실천적 관심을 어떻게 의사소통이론과 결합할 것인지가 주요한 과제가 될 것으로 보인다.

Background: Rhinolaryngoscopy and sputum examination are popular tests for the evaluation of chronic cough. Little is known about the relationship between symptoms and rhinolaryngoscopic findings or sputum eosinophilia in chronic cough patients. Methods: One hundred patients, who had chronic cough with normal chest radiography and who also had undergone both rhinolaryngoscopy and induced sputum analysis, were reviewed retrospectively. Eleven associated symptoms of chronic cough were asked; postnasal drip (PND) and laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) were examined by rhinolaryngoscopy. Induced sputum analysis was performed for evaluation of sputum eosinophilia. Cross tabulation analyses with chi-square tests were used to evaluate the relationship between symptoms and objective findings. Results: The most frequent symptom was sputum (70%). The prevalence of PND and LPR on rhinolaryngoscopy were 56% (56/100) and 25.6% (22/86), respectively. Sputum eosinophilia was observed in 23 (23.7%) of 97 patients. The dyspnea (p=0.001), sputum (p=0.003), nasal obstruction (p=0.023), and postnasal drip sense (p=0.025) were related with PND on rhinolaryngoscopy. LPR on rhinolaryngoscopy was not related with any symptoms. Dyspnea (p=0.003), wheezing (p=0.005), nasal obstruction (p=0.013), and belching (p=0.018) were related with sputum eosinophilia. Conclusion: Any symptoms might not be related with LPR on laryngoscopy. Some symptoms might be related with PND on rhinoscopy or with sputum eosinophilia.
