In order to evaluate the possible environmental lead hazard in children's playground and to test the practicability of field portable x-ray fluorescence(FPXRF) for environmental lead measurement, authors investigated lead concentration of lead-based paint on the surface of children's playing equipments in the playground of 13 apartments using FPXRF at the site in city A, Choongnam province. 93 spots were determined surface lead concentrations 3 times each using a FPXRF. Out of 93 spots, 83 spots (92%) were revealed to have lead in paint and mean concentration was $1.12{\pm}1.76mg/cm^2$. The mean concentration of lead on the surface of playing equipments at the apartments near the main street was $1.20mg/cm^2$ and higher than those at the apartments far away from the main street($0.81mg/cm^2$)(p<0.05). The mean concentration of lead on the surface of playing equipments painted with yellow color was $3.23mg/cm^2$ and the highest among all colors, whereas equipment painted white color was non-detectable. PVC and etc materials for construction of playing equipment showed higher surface lead concentration than other materials. The result suggests that it is necessary to be taken caution of the lead exposure in the playground of apartment and it should be taken any kind of confirmative action to prevent unwanted lead exposure from surface lead source of playing equipment. Authors found that FPXRF was very reliable and useful for field measurement to detect lead on the painted surface.

최근에는 외상이 증가되는 추세이며, 외상 받은 치아에 대한 조속한 치료와 올바른 처치를 위해선 외상성 손상에 대한 역학적인 면을 아는 것이 중요하다. 본 조사의 목적은 강릉대학교 치과병원 소아치과에 외상을 주소로 내원한 아동 120명(재외상환자 포함)에 대한 성별 및 나이에 따른 발생 빈도, 손상 받은 치아의 개수, 손상 유형, 원인 및 손상 받은 장소, 월별, 시간대별 빈도, 손상 받은 치아의 위치, 외상 후 내원까지의 경과시간 등에 대한 조사를 통해 외상에 대한 교육과 예방에 도움이 되고자 시행하였다. 1. 성별에 따른 발생 빈도는 1.6 : 1로 남아의 비율이 높았다. 2. 나이에 따른 발생 빈도는 2~4세와 8~10세 때 빈도가 높았다. 3. 외상시 손상 받은 치아의 개수는 1개일 경우(51.7%)가 많았다. 4. 손상의 유형은 유치에서는 치주조직 손상이 많았고, 영구치는 경조직과 치주조직의 손상 비율이 유사하였으나 유치에 비해 경조직 손상의 비율이 많이 증가하였다. 5. 손상의 원인은 두 치열 모두에서 낙상의 비율이 높았으며 영구치열에서는 스포츠에 의한 손상 비율이 증가하였다. 6. 손상 받은 장소로는 유치는 집(38.8%), 영구치는 거리(42.5%), 학교(35%)의 비율이 높았다. 7. 월별 발생 빈도는 7월에서 빈도가 가장 높았다. 8. 시간대에 따른 빈도는 유치는 오전, 영구치는 오후에 높은 빈도를 보였다. 9. 외상시 손상 받은 치아의 위치는 유치, 영구치 모두 상악, 특히 중절치의 비율이 높았다. 10. 외상 후 내원까지의 경과시간 절반 이상(59.2%)가 당일에 내원하였으며, 손상 정도가 심할 경우가 경미한 손상일 경우보다 당일 내원하는 경우가 많았다.

This study aims to develop protective pants to relieve impact from falls and to present basic data for the development. The survey results are as follows; First, 45% of the respondents were in their 60s and 55% of them were in their over 70s and older. Also, 64% of them have fallen once for the past year and 36% of them have fallen twice or more. The older they were, the more there were those who have fallen twice or more. This indicated the older people has experienced more fall accidents again after a initial fall accident. Second, as per accident situations, the survey showed that fall accidents happened the most in the winter and in the afternoon (12-18 pm). Also, it happened on a street mostly and they were wearing sneakers or hiking boots when they got a hurt slipped in a front or side by missing their step in a walk. The injury areas are mostly knee and ankle. They had the bruises or a sprain in their knee and ankle mostly. The rate of bone fracture was 19.5%. Therefore, the protection area to falls in lower body is the knee. But hip and hip joint should be protected with knee as well because those are usually be broken when it is damaged. Third, approximately 80% of those who were hospitalized for treatment had surgery. Patients who had surgery were rather in their over 70s than in their 60s. The older they were, the more serious their fracture was. The period of hospital or outpatient treatment is more than three weeks in many cases. They responded their health got worse after falls. Aftereffects of accidents were physical discomfort, anxiety and medical costs. Falls to the old makes physical damage, psychological damage, which cause reduced physical activity and the increased cost of health care with economic losses. So it results on a negative impact on the life of the old. Fourth, elderly females were rarely aware of impact protective clothing and they have never purchased such clothing. For impact protective pants, the major consideration was suitable design for their body types. They liked casual style with front or side pockets and simple designs without any patterns or decorations. As per pants materials, they responded that they need functionality, activity and elasticity. Among the functional points, insulation of cloths are considered importantly, so the heat reservance of material in the impact protective pants should be considered carefully.

본 연구는 헌혈 참여자들의 헌혈에 대한 지식과 인식 및 만족도, 효과적이라고 생각하는 홍보방안에 대해 살펴보고 자발적이고 지속적인 헌혈인구의 확대방안 마련의 기초자료를 얻기 위하여 시도되었다. 자료수집기간은 2012년 3월 9일부터 3월 24일까지 16일간이었고, 자료의 수집방법은 설문조사로 총 700부를 배포하여 636부를 최종 분석 자료로 사용하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS 21.0을 이용하여 빈도분석 및 교차분석, t-test, ANOVA를 시행한 결과 첫째, 남성, 20~29세의 범위 연령층에서, 학생, 대졸이상의 집단에서 높은 분포를 보였다. 둘째, 헌혈에 대한 지식과 인식도는 모른다는 내용이 많았으며, 만족도는 헌혈행위에 대한 만족보다는 헌혈과 관련된 서비스 만족도 점수가 더 높게 나타났다. 셋째, 헌혈 홍보에서는 홍보교육이 필요하며 홍보매체와 수단으로는 TV, 거리광고, 전철광고 방법 순의 결과를 보였으며 지속적인 헌혈을 위하여 헌혈에 대한 긍정적인 인식이 필요하다는 결과를 보였다. 그러므로 헌혈인구 확대를 위해서는 헌혈에 대한 지속적인 교육, 홍보를 통하여 대국민 인식변화를 유도하고 헌혈자에 대한 다양한 보상 이벤트제공 등으로 헌혈에 대한 더욱 적극적인 방법을 모색해야 할 것이다.

Smoking has become one of the public health harzard affecting the world. In the UK, smoking is responsible for around one in five deaths. The illnesses caused by smoking extend beyond the well-reported links with cancer, heart disease and respiratory illnesses. Hence the research to determine the awareness of the predisposing factor to smoking among adults in sokoto metropolis. A cross-sectional form of descriptive survey research design was used for this study. This is because descriptive studies are used when the characteristics of a population are either unknown or partially known (Hennekens & Buring, 2007), and it was used by Ganley and Rosario (2013) in a related research this justified the use of similar design in a study of similar nature.Two hundred and seventy returned questionnaire was collected, analyzed using descriptive statistic of frequency count, normative percentage and grand mean; as well as inferential statistics of chi-square (${\chi}^2$). The level of significant was fixed at 0.05. Appropriate degrees of freedom were worked out. There was statistical significant influence or relationship with marital status on the predisposing factors of smoking chi-square of 19716.516 greater than the critical value 43.77297at df 30 p<0.05. There were statistical significance chi-square =27468.348 which is greater than the critical value 43.77297 at df= 30. These show that there is a relationship on gender awareness of predisposing factors to smoking rejecting the null hypotheses. The respondents across different lever/year higher institution shows that the awareness of predisposing factors of smoking there were a statistical significance difference chi-square =7168.429 (df=88) greater than critical value 102.342 rejecting the null hypotheses. There is consistent evidence that links exposure to depictions of smoking in movies and initiation of smoking in young people. Over the years television shows and films have effectively built up associations between smoking and glamour, sex and risk-taking. Social learning theory describes how we learn by example from others. We are strongly influenced by our parents, and other people we look up to, such as peers, actors and pop stars. This can lead us to emulate their behaviour and try smoking.

본 연구는 2003년 1월부터 2007년 7월까지 전남대학교 병원 소아치과와 응급실에 치아 외상을 주소로 내원한 환자 570명(치아수: 1394개)을 대상으로 연령, 성별분포, 발생원인 및 장소, 손상 받은 치아의 위치 및 유형, 초진시 처치 등에 대한 조사를 통해 외상에 대한 적절한 진단과 치료에 도움이 되고자 시행하였다. 1. 성별에 따른 발생빈도는 1.9:1로 남자의 비율이 높았고, 나이에 따른 발생 빈도는 1세, $6{\sim}8$세, $17{\sim}18$세 때 높았다. 2. 외상의 원인은 유치열과 혼합치열에는 넘어진 경우가 가장 많았으며 영구치열에서는 교통사고와 싸움으로 인한 손상 빈도가 높았다. 외상을 입은 장소는 유치열은 집에서, 혼합치열, 영구치열에는 길에서 비율이 높았다. 3. 외상시 손상 받은 치아의 위치는 유치와 영구치 모두 상악 중절치의 비율이 높았다. 손상의 유형은 유치와 영구치 모두 치주조직의 손상이 많았는데, 유치는 아탈구, 진탕, 함입 순이었으며, 영구치는 아탈구, 진탕, 완전탈구 순이었다. 4. 초진시의 처치는 특별한 처치 없이 경과를 관찰하는 경우가 대부분이었으며, 유치는 33.1%, 영구치에서는 44.5%의 재 내원률을 보였다. 치주조직 손상 후 유치는 20.3%, 영구치는 26.6%의 치수 괴사율을 보였다.
