Background: The huge improvements in the speed of data transmission and the increasing amount of data available as the Internet has expanded have made it easy to obtain information about any disease. Since pneumothorax frequently occurs in young adolescents, patients often search the Internet for information on pneumothorax. Methods: This study analyzed an Internet community for exchanging information on pneumothorax, with an emphasis on the importance of accurate information and doctors' role in providing such information. Results: This study assessed 599,178 visitors to the Internet community from June 2008 to April 2017. There was an average of 190 visitors, 2.2 posts, and 4.5 replies per day. A total of 6,513 posts were made, and 63.3% of them included questions about the disease. The visitors mostly searched for terms such as 'pneumothorax,' 'recurrent pneumothorax,' 'pneumothorax operation,' and 'obtaining a medical certification of having been diagnosed with pneumothorax.' However, 22% of the pneumothorax-related posts by visitors contained inaccurate information. Conclusion: Internet communities can be an important source of information. However, incorrect information about a disease can be harmful for patients. We, as doctors, should try to provide more in-depth information about diseases to patients and to disseminate accurate information about diseases in Internet communities.

The Gyeonggi-do Agricultural Research and Extension Services has developed a web-site (www.epilove.com) in collaboration with EPINET to provide information on agricultural weather and rice disease and insect pest management in Gyeonggi-do. Weather information includes near real-time weather data monitored by automated weather stations (AWS) installed at rice paddy fields of 11 Agricultural Technology Centers (ATC) in Gyeonggi-do, and weekly weather forecast by Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA). Map images of hourly air temperature and rainfall are also generated at 309m x 309m resolution using hourly data obtained from AWS installed at 191 locations by KMA. Based on near real-time weather data from 11 ATC, hourly infection risks of rice blast, sheath blight, and bacterial grain rot for individual districts are estimated by disease forecasting models, BLAST, SHBLIGHT, and GRAINROT. Users can diagnose various diseases and insects of rice and find their information in detail by browsing thumbnail images of them. A database on agrochemicals is linked to the system for disease and insect diagnosis to help users search for appropriate agrochemicals to control diseases and insect pests.

Objectives Mibyeong is an ideological concept that means the state between the healthy and diseased conditions. The purpose of this study was to suggest a research direction to establish the diagnostic criteria for the Mibyeong by reviewing the research results for the Mibyeong. Methods Academic databases (OASIS for Korean database, Embase for English database, and CNKI for Chinese database) were used to search related literatures, and articles describing the concept or diagnostic criteria of the disease were selected. Results The concept of Mibyeong consisted of three different conditions: (1) subjective symptoms without a specific disease, (2) abnormal examination findings without a specific disease, and (3) a state in between health and disease. No matter which of the three conditions is applied, the spectrum of condition was very wide and diverse. Conclusions It is impossible to apply appropriate and monolithic diagnostic criteria to all types of Mibyeong. Therefore, we suggests that the Mibyeong be classified into several subtypes and the diagnostic criteria suitable for each type be established.

This study is to design a Semantic Navigation Retrieval System for Oriental Medicine Articles based on a XTM so that people can search and use them more effectively than before. Keywords extracted from articles are categorized 4 topics : herbs, prescription, disease, and action. Keywords analysis Ontology is modeled based on 4 topics and their relations, and then represented Topic maps. Next, Article analysis Ontology is consist of title, author, keywords, abstracts and organization Topics from metadata. Keywords and Article analysis Ontology were integrated through Keywords Topic. Korean Medical Article Retrieval System is optimistic in terms on search results supporting semantic navigation in the information service aspects and easier accessibility because all related information are semantically connected with each different DBs.

Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate the frequency and clinical characteristics of anaphylaxis patients who are registered inaccurately with other disease codes. Methods: Study subjects presenting at the emergency department (ED) were retrospectively collected using disease codes to search for anaphylaxis patients in a previous studies. The study group was divided into an accurate and inaccurate group according to whether disease codes were accurately registered as anaphylaxis codes. Results: Among 266 anaphylaxis patients, 144 patients (54%) received inaccurate codes. Cancer was the most common comorbidity, and the radio-contrast media was the most common cause of anaphylaxis in the accurate group. Cutaneous and respiratory symptoms manifested more frequently in the inaccurate group, while cardiovascular and neurological symptoms were more frequent in the accurate group. Blood pressure was lower, and shock and non-alert consciousness were more common in the accurate group. Administration of intravenous fluid and epinephrine use were more frequent in the accurate group. Anaphylaxis patients with a history of cancer, shock, and epinephrine use were more likely to be registered as anaphylaxis codes accurately, but patients with respiratory symptoms were more likely to be registered with other disease codes. Conclusion: In cases of anaphylaxis, the frequency of inaccurately registered disease codes was higher than that of accurately registered codes. Anaphylaxis patients who were not treated with epinephrine at the ED who did not have a history of cancer, but had respiratory symptoms were at increased risk of being registered with disease codes other than anaphylaxis codes.

C. neoformans-associated cryptococcosis is primarily a disease of immunocompromised persons, has a world-wide distribution, and is often spread by pigeons in the urban environment. In contrast, C. gattii causes infection in normal hosts, has only been described in tropical and semi-tropical areas of the world, and has a unique niche in river gum Eucalyptus trees. Cryptococcosis is acquired through inhalation of the yeast propagules from the environment. C. gattii has been identified as the cause of an emerging infectious disease centered on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. No cases of C. gattii-disease were diagnosed prior to 1999; the current incidence rate is 36 cases per million population. A search was initiated in 2001 to find the ecological niche of this basidiomycetous yeast. C. gattii was found in the environment in treed areas of Vancouver Island. The highest percentage of colonized-tree clusters were found around central Vancouver Island, with decreasing rates of colonization to the north and south. Climate, soil and vegetation cover of this area, called the Coastal Douglas fir biogeoclimatic zone, is unique to British Columbia and Canada. The concentration of airborne C. gattii was highest in the dry summer months, and lowest during late fall, winter, and early spring, months which have heavy rainfall. The study of the emerging colonization of this organism and subsequent cases of environmentally acquired disease will be informative in planning public health management of new routes of exposure to exotic agents in areas impacted by changing climate and land use patterns.

최근 인터넷의 보편화와 정보통신 기술의 발달로 인해 인터넷을 통한 정보검색이 일상화 됨에 따라 주식에 관한 정보 역시 검색엔진, 소셜네트워크서비스, 인터넷 커뮤니티 등을 통해 획득하는 경우가 잦아졌다. 특정 단어에 대한 키워드 검색량은 사용자의 관심도를 반영하기 때문에 다양한 연구에서 개별 기업에 대한 인터넷 검색량은 투자자의 관심도에 대한 척도로서의 사용가능성을 각광받았다. 특정 주식에 대한 투자자의 관심이 증가할 때 일시적으로 주가가 상승하였다가 회복하는 반전현상은 여러 연구를 통해 검증되어 왔지만 그 동안 투자자의 관심도는 주로 주식거래량, 광고 비용 등을 사용해 간접적으로 측정되었다. 본 연구에서는 국내 코스닥 시장에 상장된 기업에 대한 인터넷 검색량을 투자자의 관심의 척도로 사용하여 투자자의 관심에 근거한 주가변동성의 변화를 전체 시장 측면과 산업별 측면에서 관찰한다. 또한 투자자 관심이 야기한 가격압박에 의한 주가 반전현상의 존재를 코스닥 시장에서 검증하고 산업 간의 반전정도의 차이를 비교한다. 실증분석 결과 비정상적인 인터넷 검색량 증가는 주가변동성의 유의적인 증가를 가져왔고 이러한 현상은 IT S/W, 건설, 유통 산업군에서 특히 강하게 나타났다. 비정상적인 인터넷 검색량의 증가 이후 2주 간 주가변동성이 증가하였고 3~4주 후에는 오히려 변동성이 감소하는 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 주가 반전현상 역시 IT S/W, 건설, 유통 산업군에서 보다 극단적으로 발생하는 것으로 나타난다.
