  • The purpose of this study is to identify the convergence factors affecting the unmet health needs of the indigent elderly. The data the study is the Korean medical panel of 2011 and the parameters belonging to each factors were selected based on the Anderson model. We analyzed the general characteristics using frequency analysis and the correlations between variables using cross analysis. Finally, logistic regression analysis was conducted to examine the factors affecting unmet health needs. The indigent elderly with no education and elementary school graduates were 1.5 times more likely to experience unmet health needs than the poverty elderly with high school graduates. The indigent elderly who does not work for income, who were employers and self-employeds were 1.5 times more likely to experience unmet health care need than unpaid family workers. The indigent elderly with disabilities in activites of daily living were 2.9 time more likely to experience unmet health care needs than the indigent elderly with no disability in activites of daily living. The results of this study confirm that the increase in the economic burden of medical care for the indigent elderly can lead to the unmet health needs.

  • 다변량 데이터 분석에 주로 사용되는 차원축소 기법 중 하나인 PCA 알고리즘을 직접 구현해보고 기존의 통계분석 프로그램과 그 결과를 비교분석 해보았다. UCI에서 제공하는 유방암 데이터를 이용하여 실험 해본 결과 두 프로그램 모두 같은 주성분을 얻고, Eigenvalue와 variance도 같은 값을 얻었다. 따라서 상용화된 통계패키지를 사용하지 않고도 PCA 알고리즘을 적용하여 차원축소 문제를 해결하고 데이터를 분석 할 수 있다.

  • The Cd0.95Mn0.05Te0.98Se0.02 (CMTS) ingot was grown by the vertical Bridgman technique at low pressure. All wafers showed high resistivity, which suggests potential as a room-temperature semiconductor detector. The resistivity of the CMTS planar detector was 1.47 × 1010 Ω·cm and mobility lifetime product of electrons was 1.29 × 10-3 cm2/V. The spectroscopic property with Am-241 and Co-57 was evaluated. The energy resolution about 59.5 keV gamma-ray of Am-241 was 11% and the photo-peak of 122 keV gamma-ray from Co-57 was clearly distinguished. The result shows the first detector-grade CMTS in the world and proves CMTS's potential as a radiation detector operating at room temperature.

A Convergence Study on the Mediating Effects of Dental Health Determinants on Relationship between Health Practice Behaviors and Health-Related Quality of Life of the Elderly (노인의 건강실천행위가 건강관련 삶의 질에 미치는 영향에서 치아건강도의 매개효과에 관한 융합연구)

  • This study was to examine whether an elderly can health-related quality of life(EQ-5D) by the mediating effect of dental health determinants on the association between health practice behavior and EQ-5D. The analysis was conducted on 1,311 of above the age of 65 in elderly by using raw data from the 2015 National Health and Nutrition Survey. The data were analyzed using SPSS for windows version 24.0 and SPSS PROCESS-macro. The health practice behavior and EQ-5D by living arrangement were the highest in the one-generation family(4.62, 0.90) and the lowest the elderly living alone(4.40, 0.86). Also, analysis using the PROCESS macro indicated that the FS-T index has a mediating effect between health practice behavior and EQ-5D(${\beta}=.0011$, BCCI [.003~.0024]). These findings suggest that FS-T index is closely related to EQ-5D and this will be used as basic data for development of health promotion programs for elderly.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate oral behavior and quality of life for soldiers. Because this study basis data for the oral health education for soldiers. A total of 400 soldiers in Seoul and Gyeonggi area were surveyed and 361 data were collected. The data were analyzed by the SPSS 19.0 program. Soldiers felt that there were oral health moderated, and oral hygiene behavior was not high. Also, soldiers answer that oral health education is necessary and there was a statistically significant correlation between self rated oral health status and the need for oral health education. As the physical health, mental and social health of soldiers is related to oral health, it seems that the oral health education of soldiers should be regularly and this study can be used basic data of oral health education of soldiers.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of stress on oral health and health behaviors. The study was conducted on 72,060 people using 11th Youth Health Behavior Online Survey in 2015. The study shows that In general, female students, high school students and students with high performance ranking are more stressful than male students, middle school students and students with low performance ranking respectively. Studies have shown that students who do not exercise a lot and have not breakfast get relatively high stress. Plus, the stress index was also high and statistically significant. (p<0.001). The study also shows that students who have got symptoms of "tooth pain when eating" and "bleeding gun" at the questionnaire of "Self-assessed Oral health status"get high stress relatively. And the study tells us that students who have bad breath get high stress relatively as well. And, the stress index was also high and statistically significant. (p<0.001). The implications of this study are that psychological stress among adolescents has a close relationship with oral health and health behavior.

  • To investigate the relationship between mental health and oral health problems in the elderly, this study was conducted using raw data from the 7th 3rd(2018) National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, targeting 753 elderly people aged 65 and over. For data analysis, complex sample analysis was performed using IBM SPSS 22.0 program. In the case of chewing problem, the odds ratio increased in the group with high stress perception and depression(p<0.05). In the case of speaking problem, the odds ratio increased in the group that received mental health counseling(p<0.05). As a result of this study, it was found that there is a relationship between mental health and oral health problems in the elderly. Therefore, it is thought that it is necessary to improve the quality of life through the development of programs to improve the mental health of the elderly and oral health problems.

  • This study was performed to determine correlation on oral health behavior and variables of planned behavior theory before and after oral health education. 62 male inpatient alcoholics conducted the structured self-administered questionnaires, and subjects were taken oral health education for 4 weeks. To analysis data, the correlation analysis was conducted. The education group showed a significant positive correlation with oral health behavior and behavior intention, attitude toward behavior, subjective norm, perceive behavior control after oral health education. The relevant variables after the oral health education displayed a higher correlation coefficient and relation in the education group. It suggested an evidence that regular oral health education should be applied to promote oral health for alcoholic inpatients.

  • This study aims to the effects for researching on dental treatment of related to the major of University students. Regarding the study results, female students took 4.63 times(health-related major) and 2.56 times(health-unrelated major) more than male students for dental treatments. On the other hand if they think their gum health is subjectively good enough they relatively took only 0.92 times(health-related) and 0.39 times(health-unrelated) than students who do not. Depending on the major the result of the dental treatment are different. Based on this study the dental treatment of convergence oral health education program for student of health-unrelated major shall be developed. Through this it is will have to be well-organized and correct oral knowledg that shoud be acquire appropriate dental treatments.
