  • 1. Backgrounds and Aims Human being is divided into 4 constitution types(Taeyangin, Soyangin, Taeumin, and Soumin). According to Sasang Constitutional Medicine[SCM] Each constitution has its own incidence, treatment and prevention of disease. The purpose of this study is to find the relation of dietary habits, life styles and Psychosocial stress with obesity in each Sasang Constitution. 2. Methods 975 subjects who have received health examinations and diagnosis of Sasang Constitution at Kyung-hee Medical Center were divided into each constitutional group. Each constitutional group was then divided into obese group and normal group. We evaluated risk factors of obesity such as dietary habits, life styles, and Psychosocial stress. These data were statistically analysed to investigate the relations between risk factors and obesity. And then significant factors were analysed by multinomial logistic regression analysis to get each odds ratio. 3. Results In a multinomial logistic regression analysis adjusted for age and sex, promotion of appetite and overeating or excessive diet elevated risks of obesity in Taeumin, promotion of appetite and high speed of diet elevated risks of obesity in Soyangin, and Psychosocial stress elevated risks of obesity in Soeumin. 4. Conclusions The results suggest that promotion of appetite and overeating or excessive diet may be major risk factors for obesity in Taeumin, promotion of appetite and high speed of diet in Soyangin and Psychosocial stress and dyschezia in Soeumin.

  • 2015년 실시한 국민구강실태조사에 따르면 우리나라 만 12세 아동들의 우식경험영구치지수(DMFT index)는 1.9로 주요 OECD 국가들의 평균인 1.6에 거의 근접한 것으로 조사되었다. 본 연구의 목적은 인접면 우식증의 진단에 있어 새로 개발된 $Qraypen^{TM}$의 효능을 기존의 방법인 시진 및 구내 치근단 방사선 사진과 비교 평가하고, 임상 적용 시의 문제점을 파악하여 차후 $Qraypen^{TM}$에 필요한 개선안을 제시함과 아울러 치아우식증의 예방 및 초기 우식증 재광화 방법에 대한 기초 연구자료를 마련하고자 하였다. 학교 구강검진을 목적으로 내원한 학령기의 혼합치열을 가진 32명의 어린이들을 대상으로 구강검진 2회, 구치부 치근단 방사선 필름 판독 2회 그리고 구치부 인접면 $Qraypen^{TM}$ 이미지 판독 2회를 실시하고 비교한 결과 $Qraypen^{TM}$ 영상은 변연융선이 파괴되지 않은 유구치의 인접면 우식증의 탐지에 효과적이었다. 또한 방사선 촬영 결과와 비교해 보니 차이가 없음을 확인하였다. 그러나 인접면 우식증이 상아질까지 진행되어 병소가 성숙하여야 뚜렷한 붉은색 형광을 관찰할 수 있었기에 우식 병소의 진행 정도와 붉은색 형광 발생의 관련성을 확인하기 위해서는 향후 발치된 치아를 사용하여 조직학적 검사를 병행한 추가적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다. 본 연구 결과 $Qraypen^{TM}$은 유구치의 육안으로 보이지 않은 인접면 우식증을 탐지하는 데 도움을 줄 수 있는 유용하고 간편한 보조장비가 될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

  • 의료 목적으로 X선 촬영이나 CT, PET과 같은 진단방사선 피폭은 불가피하지만 선진국에서 의료 방사선이 최대의 인공 피폭원을 구성하고 있고 또 빠르게 증가하는 경향에 있음을 고려하면 의료상 피폭의 특성이나 그 결과로 인한 환자 선량 크기를 이해하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 이에 2002년도를 기준으로 단위 진료행위별 선량과 국내 의료보험 통계자료를 결합하여 방사선 진료절차별 집단선량과 1인당 유효선량 평가하였다. 절차의 유효선량 값은 NRPB 보고서, ICRP 80, MIRDOSE3.1 및 우리가 독립적으로 산출한 자료들로부터 편집하였다. 평가 결과 연간 집단선량은 진단방사선 22880man-Sv, 핵의학 4560man-Sv로서 총 27440 man-Sv로 나타났으며 따라서 인구 4770만 명을 나눈 1인당 연평균 의료상 피폭선량은 0.58mSv였다. 이 집단선량은 2002년 16기의 원전을 가동한 우리나라의 직업상피폭 70man-Sv보다 크게 많다. 특히 CT 촬영만의 집단선량도 9960man-Sv에 이름은 주목할 일이다. 이 결과는 국가의 방사선방호 정책이 의료에서 환자선량 최적화에 보다 주목해야 함을 시사한다.

The basic nursing educational institutions in the whole country were total 113, namely, 3 years course, 65 junior colleges of nursing, and 4 years course, 48 colleges of nursing. And there were 3 types of continuing nursing educational system: two of three were transferring to another college for gain bachelor's degree in nursing; RN-BSN programs and university of broadcasting, and the other was the system of independent learning and then examination for BSN. Total nursing graduates from junior college of nursing courses and college of nursing courses were 7,564 on February, 1999. In general graduate school, the number of master courses were 21 and Ph.D courses were 13. And the number of special graduate schools were 21, i.e., graduate school of education were 7, graduate school of administration were 2, graduate school of public health were 11 and graduate school of industry was 1. As the perspective on nursing education, we overviewed changing nursing organizational environment, increasing the system of continuing education, making standards in nursing education and systemization of nursing educational accreditation, specialization of nursing, information system in nursing education and education of graduate school. The summary of the above overviewed subjects were as follows; Every nursing educational institution needed to educate by educational criteria and standard and characteristically run BSN and graduate courses. Specialization in nursing has to develop more and more, therefore advanced education and law should be prepared appropriately. According to the age's and social needs, we have to establish counter-plan for fundamental educational environment. We have to sensitive to rapidly changing information in the era of globalization. In the level of university education, each university needs characterization of educational objectives, goals and contents, and has to replace the shortage of the number of professor. And the regulation of thesis and dissertation examinations need to be reinforced. Education in nursing should consists with specialization. Collaboration among universities will bring efficiency in the nursing education.

  • This study was done to examine the correlations between weight, BMI and risk factors of coronary heart disease in men and women in their forties and fifties. The subjects were 412 adults. who had regular health examinations between January and December of 1996 at S-Hospital in Seoul. The data were analyzed using ANOVA, Scheffe test, and Pearson correlation coefficient. The results are as follows : 1. The men between 50 and 59 years of age had higher levels for BMI, weight, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, total cholesterol. LDL-cholesterol, triglyceride, fasting blood sugar, plasminogen activator-1, and hemoglobin A,C than the group of women in their forties. Yet. HDL-cholesterol was lower than in the former group. 2. In the group of men in their forties, weight was significantly correlated to diastolic blood pressure(r=.22), LDL-cholesterol(r=.20), plasminogen activator-inhibitor-1(r=.35) HDL-cholesterol(r=-.19). Their BMI was significantly correlted to systolic blood pressure(r=.27), diastolic blood pressure (r=.33), total cholesterol(r=.23), LDL-cholesterol (r=.26), plasminogen activator-1(r=.36) and HDL-cholesterol(r=-.25). 3. As for the group of women in their forties weight was significantly correlated to systolic blood pressure(r=.20), diastolic blood pressure(r=.22), triglyceride(r=.32) , plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (r=.30) and HDL-cholesterol(r= -.37). Their BMI was significantly correlated to diastolic blood pressure (r=.25) triglyceride(r=.47), plasminogen activator-1 (r=.35), fibrinogen(r=.27) and HDL-cholesterol(r=-.47). 4. In the group of men in their fifties. weight was significantly correlated to total cholesterol (r=32), LDL-cholesterol(r=.29). plasminogen activator inhibitor-1(r=.26). Their BMI was significantly correlated to systolic blood pressure(r=.24), diastolic blood pressure (r=.22), total cholesterol (r=.34), LDL-cholesterol (r=.32), and plasminogen activator-1(r=.25). 5. In the group of women in their fifties, weight was significantly correlated to diastolic blood pressure(r=.33), total cholesterol(r=.21), LDL-cholesterol(r=.20), plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (r=.43) and HDL-cholesterol(r=-.21). Their BMI was significantly correlated to systolic blood pressure(r=.25), diastolic blood pressure(r=.40), total cholesterol(r=.24), LDL-cholesterol(r=.24), triglyceride(r=22), and HDL-cholesterol (r=-.30). The above findings indicate that the BMI was more predictive than weight as a risk factor for coronary artery disease for men and women in their forties and fifties.

  • Increasingly nursing science is embracing the concepts and methodology derived from psycho-neuroimmunology. It has been previously shown that stress increases and immune function declines in students undergoing examinations. To date, however, no many studies have been reported on stress levels, immune function and interventions in Korean students undergoing their first clinical nursing rotation. It was proposed that nursing students during their first clinical rotation experience increase in stress because of the novelty of the situation and their lack of clinical knowledge. It was also hypothesized that biofeedback and progressive relaxation, methods of self-regulation of involuntary autonomic nervous system responses, would reduce the stress response. The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of progressive muscle laxation using biofeedback The effectiveness of the experimental methods was tested by measuring the degree of symptoms of stress (SOS) and the values of ephinephrine, pulse rate, blood pressure and natural killer cells. The subjects of this study were thirty nursing students divided into two groups: experimental group was progressive muscle relaxation group using biofeedback and control group. This study was conducted for 8 weeks of clinical practice. Biofeedback training was done by software developed by J&J company (1-410 form for progressive muscle training). Progressive muscle relaxation training according to Jacobson's Theory was done by messaged word from biofeedback. The data was analyzed using Chronbach' ${\alpha}$ and t-test of the SPSS program and the significance level of statistics was 5%. The results of the study were : 1) The progressive muscle relaxation training using biofeedback was effective for the reduction of symptoms of stress(t=-4.248, p<.001) under clinical practice stress conditions. 2) The progressive muscle relaxation training using biofeedback was not effective for the values of epinephrine(t=-1.294, p=.206). 3) The progressive muscle relaxation training using biofeedback was effective for the reduction of systolic blood pressure (t=-2.757, p=.01). 4) The progressive muscle relaxation training using biofeedback was effective for the reduction of diastolic blood pressure (p=-2.032, 0=.05). 5) The progressive muscle relaxation training using biofeedback was not effective for the reduction of pulse rate(t=-15, p=.988). 6) The progressive muscle relaxation training using biofeedback was effective for the maintenance of natural killer cells (t=2.381, p=02). The first clinical rotation for student nurses is a stressful experience as seen by the rise in the SOS in the control group. Biofeedback using progressive muscle relaxation were effective in preventing the rise of symptoms of stress and the blood pressure means when comparing the pre to post clinical experience, The mean natural killer cell count was depressed in the control group but not significantly different in the experimental groups, It is proposed here that stress via the hypothalamic - pituitary - adrenal axis suppressed the NK cell count whereas the relaxation methods prevented the rise in stress and the resulting immune depression. We recommend relaxation techniques using biofeedback as a health promotion technique to reduce psychological stress. In summary. the progressive muscle relaxation training using biofeedback was effective for the reduction of symptoms of stress under clinical practice stress conditions.

  • 본 연구는 파킨슨질환의 진행 정도를 평가할 수 있는 선조체를 모사한 brain 팬텀을 직접 제작하여, PET-CT검사 시 최적의 영상의 질을 유지하면서 CT 스캔에 의한 brain 선량 저감을 위한 가능성을 평가하였다. 팬텀의 hot sphere와 background (radi oacti vi ty rati o 3:1)에 $^{18}F$ FP-CIT를 주입하고, 관전압(100, 120 kVp)과 관전류(80, 140, 200 mAs)의 조건을 변화시키며 CT 스캔을 실험하였다(기준조건; 120 kVp, 140 mAs). 각 조건에 따라 예상유효선량을 conversion factor를 적용해 계산하였고, SNR과 CRChot의 영상평가 인자를 설정하여 영상의 질을 평가하였다. 실험결과 CT 촬영 기준조건 이하에서의 예상유효선량은 최소 10%에서 최고 60% 정도 감소하였고, 기준조건 이상에서의 예상유효선량은 40% 증가하였다. 또한 PET 영상의 SNR과 CRChot의 유의한 차이는 없었으므로, 관전압과 관전류의 감소에 따라 brain 선량이 감소함을 확인하였다. 이와 동시에 스캔 조건의 변화에도 불구하고 SNR과 CRChot 측면에서의 영상의 질에는 유의한 변화가 없었다. 이러한 사실은 낮은 선량 조건으로도 기존의 선량 조건으로 획득한 영상의 질 수준을 얻을 수 있었으므로, 추후 brain PET-CT 스캔의 선량감소와 동시에 영상의 질 향상에 관한 연구의 기초자료로 활용이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

  • 진단용 X선 영상에서 산란선은 화질을 열화시키는 주요한 원인이다. X선 장치는 필름/스크린을 사용한 아날로그 시스템부터 Imaging plate (IP) 및 평판 검출기(Flat panel detector; FPD)를 사용한 디지털 시스템으로 바뀌어 가고 있다. 그러나 산란 X선 제거를 위한 Grid는 아날로그 시대에 사용됐던 구조부터 큰 변화가 없다. 본 논문에서는 선행연구에서 고안된 산란선 제거율을 향상시키기 위한 간접변환형 평판검출기의 새로운 구조를 다양한 입사 X선을 사용하는 임상현장에서의 활용 가능성을 검토했다. 일반적으로 FPD는 3개의 층으로 구성되어 있다. 신호를 검출하는 화소와 화소 사이에는 전압을 거는 voltage line이나 데이터를 전달하는 data line과 같은 X선 불감영역이 존재한다. 선행연구에서는 이 불감영역에 정확히 맞추어 방사선 불 투과성의 납을 그물 모양으로 substrate layer에 삽입함으로서 검출기 자체가 산란선 제거 효과가 있도록 설계하였다. 새로운 구조의 임상 유용성을 평가하기 위해, 삽입된 그물 모양의 납을 입사 X선에 대해 가로, 세로성분으로 나누어 각각의 성능을 확인하였으며, 동시에 납의 높이를 변화시켜 납 높이가 성능에 미치는 영향을 영상 대조도와 grid 노출 인자를 통해 검토했다. 검출기면에 대해 대각선으로 입사한 X선($0^{\circ}$, $15^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$)에 대해서, 입사 X선에 대해 평행한 가로성분이 세로 성분에 비해 높은 영상 대조도와 낮은 그리드 노출 인자를 나타냈으며, 세로성분의 납 높이가 높을수록 본 연구에서 고안한 검출기에 악영향을 미치는 것을 확인했다. 그러므로 본 연구에서 고안한 새로운 FPD 시스템은 FPD의 구조를 방사선검사 조건과 목적에 맞추어 최적화함으로써 임상 의료현장에서의 사용 가능성이 확인되었다.

  • Objectives: The cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI) and ankle-brachial index (ABI) are non-invasive methods to evaluate cardiovascular disease and arteriosclerosis. This study investigated the relationship between CAVI, ABI, and factors related to arteriosclerosis. Methods: This study included 535 healthy adults who underwent health examinations in 2019. We analyzed the correlation between CAVI, ABI and clinical variables. Multiple regression analysis was performed on the independent clinical variables associated with CAVI and ABI. Results: The correlation analysis of CAVI showed that body mass index (BMI) and HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) had a negative correlation, and the other variables had a significant positive correlation. The correlation analysis with ABI on the right side showed that age, diastolic blood pressure (DBP), gender, and LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) had a significant positive correlation, while HDL-C had a significant negative correlation. There was no statistical significance on the left. In the multiple regression analysis, DBP, age, BMI, gender, and HDL-C were proved to be independent factors in CAVI (right) (R2=0.365); DBP, age, gender, BMI, fasting blood sugar, and total cholesterol in CAVI (left) (R2=0.357); and age, gender, DBP, and systolic blood pressure in ABI (right) (R2=0.133). There were no statistically significant factors in ABI (left). It could be inferred that smoking and drinking are determinants that play an important role in CAVI. Conclusion: CAVI showed a high correlation with gender, age, and blood pressure. A significant correlation between CAVI and serum lipid values could be observed, but this showed a low correlation coefficient. ABI showed a high correlation with age and DBP. These results support the use of CAVI and ABI as primary diagnostic devices in medical treatment.

  • 2013년 1월부터 2016년 3월 사이 인제대학교 해운대백병원에 내원한 환자를 대상으로 HPV genotype 분석 후 세포학적 검사 결과, 조직학적 검사 결과와 비교하였다. 총 검사대상 2,130건 중 58.9%인 1,254건은 HPV 양성으로, 41.1%인 876건은 HPV 음성으로 분석되었다. HPV 양성검체 중 단순감염은 58.4%인 732건, 복합감염은 41.6%인 522건이었다. 감염비율은 HPV 16, 68, 56의 순으로 각각 7.1%인 152건, 4.6%인 97건, 3.8%인 80건으로 나타났다. HR HPV 감염은 40대, 30대, 50대 순으로 높은 감염률을 보였고, LR HPV 감염은 40대, 50대, 30대 순으로 높은 감염률을 보였다. 조직병리학적 분석 결과 CIN 2 이상으로 나온 HPV 16, 68, 56 건수는 329건 중 155건으로 47.1%(155/329)로 분석되었다. 부산지역 여성의 HPV subtype 감염은 주로 16, 68, 56, 58, 51과 관련이 있었으나, 이중 68, 56, 51형은 현재 시판 중인 Gardasil 9가 백신으로도 예방할 수 없는 유전자형이었다. 이 연구를 통해 부산 지역의 HPV 예방 접종을 위한 프로그램에 대한 중요한 기준 데이터를 제공할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
