  • 노인장기요양보험은 2008년 7월에 시작된 이후 제도의 안정적 정착과 발전을 위해 여러 가지 면에서 보완해야할 부분이 많은 상태이다. 그 중에서도 장기요양급여의 진입장벽을 결정하는 등급결정모형을 지속적으로 보완하는 것이 가장 중요하다. 본 연구는 제도 시행 이후 급속히 변화하는 장기요양 시장의 현실을 등급결정모형에 반영하고자 제도 도입 이후의 자료를 활용하여 등급결정모형을 구축하여 현행 모형을 보완하고자 하였다. 등급결정모형을 개발하기 위해 데이터마이닝 기법 중 의사결정나무기법을 활용하였으며, 이것은 현행 모형과 비교가 용이하도록 하기 위한 것이다. 이 모형은 기능상태가 나쁜 사람일수록 장기요양서비스량이 많을 것이라는 가정을 전제로 하고 있으며 장기요양서비스량을 서비스 제공시간으로 보았다. 이 연구는 변화된 현실을 충분히 반영하기 위해 등급결정모형을 보완 하였다는 점에서 의의를 갖는다. 그러나 향후에도 서비스 인프라, 급여 이용자의 특성 등 계속 변화하는 환경을 반영하여 등급결정모형을 보완하고 발전시키는 것이 지속적으로 필요하다고 본다.

  • Acetanilide is a High Production Volume Chemical, which is produced about 2,300 tons/year in Korea as of 1998 survey. Most is used as an intermediate for synthesis of pharmaceuticals and dyes. The chemical is one of seven chemicals, which are under the frame of OECD SIDS program sponsored by National Institute of Environmental Research of Korea. Regarding the information on the environmental fate. bioconcentration is one of important factor to estimate the environmental tranfer. However, measurement of bioconcentration needs high expense and time. For this reason, OECD recommends to use BCFWIN model to estimate bioconcentration of organic chemicals, BCFWIN estimates the bioconcentration factor (BCF) of an organic compound using the log octanol-water partition coefficient (Kow) of the compound. Structures are entered into BCFWIN through SMITES (Simplified Molecular Input Line Entry System) notations. The BCFWIN method classifies a compound as either ionic or non-ionic. ionic compounds include carboxylic acids, sulfonic acids and salts of sulfonic acids, and charged nitrogen compounds (nitrogen with a + 5 valence such as quaternary ammonium compounds). All other compounds are classified as non-ionic. In this study, bioaccumulation of acetanilide was estimated using BCFWIN model based on SMIIES notation, chemical name data and partition coefficient as one of environmental fate/distribution of the chemical elements.

  • Background: According to recent statistics, the breast cancer rate is growing fast in developing countries. In North West of Iran, the incidence of breast cancer after esophageal and gastric cancers has the highest rate. Previous studies have also indicated that women in this region show reluctance to do breast cancer screening. There is a great need for change to promote breast cancer screening among women. Social marketing is a discipline that uses the systematic application of commercial marketing techniques to promote the adoption of behavior by the target audience. Materials and Methods: In the present qualitative study, thirty-two women with breast cancer were interviewed about their experiences of breast cancer screening. A semi-structured interview guide was designed to elicit information specific to the 4 P's in social marketing. Results: Three main categories emerged from the analysis: price, service and promotion. Subcategories related to these main categories included factors effective in increasing and decreasing cost of screening, current and desirable features of screening services, and weakness of promotion. Conclusions: Screening programs should be designed to be of low cost, to meet patients' needs and should be provided in suitable places. Furthermore, it is essential that the cultural beliefs of society be improved through education. It seems necessary to design an executive protocol for breast cancer screening at different levels of primary health care to increase the women's willingness to undergo screening.

  • In contemporary times, there is an increasing demand for a dedicated healthcare environment, all over the world. The main motivation for this demand is the level of awareness manifested by the users and reflected on their expectations. Therefore new research strategies and design actions are investigated in order to answer to the users' needs and to provide objective design tools for the specialist. This study continues a series of previous developments of the Healthcare Environment Color Index that should be used for public facilities in Korea and abroad. The cross-cultural approach is a new opportunity for exchanging know-how and for testing and calibrating the perception of the users on the color index. The gathering of results was made based on the online survey provided in this phase in English version for the Romanian users. The survey was intended as an objective mean of research and an efficient way of disseminating information on the subject thus contributing to increasing the level of awareness of the users. A total of 86 Romanian and 89 Koreans with valid answers took part in the survey. Comparative visualizations of the results showed significant similarities concerning the patterns of color preferences but also cultural and emotional differences. As a result both categories of users proved to be aware of the relation between healthcare environment color and its effects on health. They also showed a common understanding on the potential of the color index. As a result the most appealing colors to be applied to the healthcare environment were the series G and B, and the most effective ones were proved to be the ranges of high lightness and low saturation but also the medium high lightness and medium saturation. Both the similarities and the differences of choice between Romanians and Koreans show that cultural and emotional differences of color recognition are important and that should be taken into consideration in design, in order to generate an inclusive and efficient healthcare environment.

  • ICT in the IOT era is the core basis of modern society. This study investigated and analyzed the recent commercialization trends of smart fashion products internationally and domestically, to utilize them as the basis of data for developing user-friendly smart fashion products that can meet the needs of consumers. Keyword research using the most representative search engines, Google and Naver was conducted for searching for various wearable items commercialized actively since 2010. The final 78 products were classified by the physical area, and the key features and benefits were analyzed. Smart fashion products were classified as four physical types for the head and face, torso, arms and hands, and ankles and feet. Smart fashion products for each body part were developed in various ways, such as hats, glasses, lenses, virtual screens, earphones, headsets, clothing, watches, wrist bands, gloves, rings, wallets, bags, anklets, shoes, socks, and insoles. The main features were music playback, bluetooth, a camera based on NFC, virtual effects, health and safety protection through measuring heartbeat and momentum, and social network sharing of all kinds of information, based on inter-working with a smartphone. These functions represent the physical, social, and emotional interactions among users and their surroundings, as well as the users, themselves. The research results are expected to be used in future studies on planning user-friendly and marketable products through in-depth analysis of the design characteristics of smart fashion products as well as consumer responses.

  • Objective: The propose of this study is to build a conceptual framework for representing clinical findings in Traditional East Asian Medicine(TEAM). As the existing standard models have been developed without considering features of Traditional Medicine, in this study we introduced unique characteristics for the TEAM. Method: This study was composed of three steps. First, we analyzed whether the existing clinical information models are suitable for representing clinical findings. Second, we analyzed ISO/TS 22789 model which is a ISO medical informatics standard, to find out the problem by applying clinical findings of TEAM into the model. Finally, we defined semantic links and a concept hierarchy in our model based on the analyzed results. The model includes the concepts for clinical findings and terms, and the semantic links can be regarded as relations between concepts, so that the representating clinical findings are completed by connecting concepts with other concepts. Results: Our framework was developed by removing unnecessary semantic links, and adding some necessary ones based on ISO/TS 22789 model. The ISO/TS 22789 model has a simple concept hierarchy, but in this study we subdivided the hierarchy and also considered interoperability with other terminological systems and standard models. Conclusions: This research needs more discussions, but is meaningful as proposing a way how to develop Traditional Medicine terminological systems. This study shows the limitations of existing models in describing clinical findings for TEAM, and what should be considered to represent Traditional Medicine knowledge, and propose a solution to improve the problem.

  • The purpose of this study is to analyze the school dietitian's cognition, practical use of environment-friendly agricultural products to provide fundamental information for the qualitative improvement in the school food service. The results of the study are as follows: 1. It was clearly recognized that the subsidy for the school food service is generally insufficient, the amount of additional appropriate subsidy for the school food service was different according to type of school and roughly 300~600 won in each of foods needs to be supported. 2. The environment-friendly agricultural products that were often used in the school food service were vegetables and grains. 3. In the analysis of cognition and problems toward using environment-friendly agricultural products, the dietitians recognized that environment-friendly agricultural products should be appropriately used. A reason that environment-friendly agricultural products were better than general agricultural products was composed of a use of less additive, good ingredient, and good outer condition. 4. In the analysis of countermeasure on increasing environment-friendly agricultural products in the school meal service, the response to that more additional subsidy was necessary for the school food service. The highest and the most positive effects after using environment-friendly agricultural products were students' health improvement and improvement in parents' satisfaction with the school food service.
