  • The recent development of embodiment technology of the medical images makes most medical institutions introduce PACS(Picture Archiving and Communication System) in haste. However lots of PACS solutions, currently developed and distributed, haven't been able to serve the convenience of users and to satisfy user's demand because of economic limitations and administrator-oriented considerations in the process of development. So we have developed MIH(Medical Image History), by which we can search and refer to the patient's medical images and information with few restrictions of time and space for diagnosis and treatment. This program will contribute to the improvement in the medical environment and meet the clients' need. We'll make more effort to develop the application which insures the better quality of medical images. MIH manages the patient's image files and medical records like film chart in connection with time. This trial will contribute to the reduction of the economical loss caused by unnecessary references and improve the quality in the medical services. The demand on the development or the program which refers to the medical +ata quickly and keeps them stable will be continued by the medical institute. This will satisfy the client's demand and improve the service to the patients in that tile program will be modified from the standpoint of the users. MIH is trying to keep user-oriented policy and to apply the benefit of the analog system to the digital environment. It is necessary to lead the public to the better understanding that the systematic management and referring of the medical images is as important as the quality of the images.

  • Muscle fatigue often induces deterioration of postural balance and muscle contraction, such as strength or maximal voluntary contraction(MVC). This study was to investigate the effects of transcutaneous electrical stimulation(TENS) applied to the fatigued muscles on postural imbalance and decline in muscle strength following fatigue of triceps surae. For the 4 months from March, 2010, twenty healthy subjects without vestibular disease and visual disturbance were recruited and induced muscle fatigue of triceps surea performed by repeated voluntary contraction. TENS was applied to gastocnemius immediately after development of muscle fatigue. Postural sway length, velocity and MVC were recorded under these conditions: pre-fatigue, post-fatigue, and TENS application to fatigued muscle during post-fatigue. Muscle fatigue increased postural imbalance as expressed by sway length and velocity and decreased muscle contraction(p<.05), while TENS improved the postural imbalance and MVC following muscle fatigue during stance(p<.05). The results suggested that fatigue on plantar flexor is associated with postural balance and muscle contraction, and TENS application to fatigued muscle was effective in improving postural imbalance and decline in muscle strength following muscle fatigue. TENS will be an effective method in exercise, working environment and daily life.

  • This study attempts to identify the changes in social reactions to disabilities in general, and to research the contextual implication of these changes in social work practice in Korea. In the early years after the Industrial Revolution, disability was conceived as social unfitness and it was assumed that the cause and responsibility could be attributed to people with disabilities. But, in the midst and late 20th century, social responsibility for people with disabilities was argued and generally accepted. As the results of these changes, conceptual models explaining disabilities have changed gradually; there has been a transition, so called, from individual model to social model. In a similar vein, WHO has refined the definition and classification of disability. Related to these changes, social welfare service paradigm for people with disabilities has shifted. This paradigm shift can be explained with the perspective of strength approach, empowerment approach, case management and independent living model. In Korea, 1998 Act on welfare for people with disabilities meant that social service for the disabled were categorized with, namely, residential service, community rehabilitation service and vocational rehabilitation service. Recently, the extent of these services has been rapidly broadened. In these situation, this study researched to identify the implications on social work practice in the context of changes in social response, conceptual model, definition and also service paradigm. Such as the followings are enumerated for the implications: disabled person's participation in assessment process, development of assessment tools focusing on social and environmental perspectives, reinforcement of information service helping self-determination, supporting on formal and informal helping network, expanding self-help programs and, finally, a shift from displacement model to support model.

  • The purpose of this study was to identify the correlation and level of Body Mass Index, Body Shape Dissatisfaction, Eating Behavior in college students. Methods: A total of 383 students were asked. The survey was analyzed by SPSS Win 21.0 program. 293 were female students and most of the students were normal in BMI(58.2%), and underweight students were the next(14.9%). There were positive correlation between body shape non satisfication and eating behavior and BMI(r=.587, p=.000; r=.174, p=.001), and negative correlation between body shape non satisfication and age and sleeping time. According to BMI the body shape non satisfication was different in normal and 1 stage obesity students. and 2 stage obesity and under weight students (F=2.993, p=.019;F=2.993, p=.109). As a result of this study, students with body mass index overweight have low body satisfaction, so it is necessary to educate the right dietary exercise therapy for weight management. And even underweight groups should be mediated so that they undergo normal diet behaviors, rather than restrained dietary behaviors, to maintain health.

  • In the era of SNS, many people relies on it to express their emotions about various kinds of products and services. Therefore, for the companies eagerly seeking to investigate how their products and services are perceived in the market, emotion mining tasks using dataset from SNSs become important much more than ever. Basically, emotion mining is a branch of sentiment analysis which is based on BOW (bag-of-words) and TF-IDF. However, there are few studies on the emotion mining which adopt feature selection (FS) methods to look for optimal set of features ensuring better results. In this sense, this study aims to propose FS methods to conduct emotion mining tasks more effectively with better outcomes. This study uses Twitter and SemEval2007 dataset for the sake of emotion mining experiments. We applied three FS methods such as CFS (Correlation based FS), IG (Information Gain), and ReliefF. Emotion mining results were obtained from applying the selected features to nine classifiers. When applying DT (decision tree) to Tweet dataset, accuracy increases with CFS, IG, and ReliefF methods. When applying LR (logistic regression) to SemEval2007 dataset, accuracy increases with ReliefF method.

  • The Chironomidae is a benthic macroinvertebrate commonly found in freshwater ecosystems, along with Ephemeroptera and Trichoptera, which can be used for environmental health assessments. There are approximately 15,000 species of Chironomidae worldwide, but there are limited studies on species identification of domestic Chironomidae larvae. In the present study, we carried out species classification of the Chironomidae larvae that found in Jeju's tap water purification plants using morphological characteristics and genetic identification based on cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene of the mitochondrial DNA. Body shape, mentum, antenna, mandible in the head capsule, and claws were observed in the larvae for morphological classification. Analysis of 17 larvae collected from faucets and fire hydrants of domestic tap water purification plants revealed the presence of two species, including 14 Orthocladius tamarutilus and 3 Paratrichocladius tammaater. These results will aid the use of the criteria information about species classification of the Chironomidae for water quality management in water purification plants and diversity monitoring of freshwater environments.

  • Schools are highly feared to spread widely in the event of an infectious disease, and systematic management and prompt response are needed as it can undermine students' health and learning rights. This study was conducted to identify the current status of infectious diseases common to elementary, middle and high school students and to provide basic data to protect students and faculty from the threat of infectious diseases and maintain normal school functions. Sejong City was selected for investigation. The three major infectious diseases are influenza, chickenpox and aquarium, all of which are classified as acute viral infectious diseases and have fast propagation speed and strong propagation power, which can have fatal consequences for students living in groups. The research data were analyzed using the 2019 infectious disease report data from the Education Ministry's Education Administration Information Network (NEIS), and the current status data reported by elementary, middle and high schools nationwide were analyzed. The research method was to compare the current status of infectious diseases across the country and Sejong City, compare the status of issuance by each school level, compare the status of infectious diseases by item, and analyze the status of infectious diseases by time. The results of the survey on the status of the three major infectious diseases are expected to be used as basic data for managing infectious diseases not only in Sejong City but also in the nation, so that they can be used to establish measures to manage student infectious diseases in the future.
