Objectives We analyzed visiting patterns to medical institutions and cost per visit according to the common cold patients aged 0-19 years. We analyzed Korean medical treatment for common cold. Methods Using the Pediatric Patient Sample data of the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service (HIRA-PPS), we analyzed the data on health insurance claims of approximately 1 million people from 2017 to 2019. The data included the number of patients who visited the hospital due to common cold for the first and second time, the ratio of second visits by type of medical institution, and the status of prescriptions in Korean medical institutions. Results The number of patients visiting healthcare providers for common cold was higher in Western medical institutions than in Korean medical institutions. However, the number of second visits was higher in Korean medical institutions. Acupuncture is the most commonly used medical treatment in Korean medical institutions for common cold. Herbal medicine for common cold was usually prescribed for 2-3 days for children and adolescents. Conclusions Although the average medical cost of Korean medical institutions was higher than that of Western medical institutions, the rate of second visits to Korean medical institutions was higher because of the demand for Korean medical treatment

Hospital on-site preparations (HOP) have long been produced in most institutions since enactment of the Ministry of Health and Welfare Notification No. 92-12 in 1992. However, due to the unclear definition of the HOP, most institutions have trouble in production and reporting of the HOP. Therefore, in this study, the definition and range of HOP are examined by questionnaire for 34 institutions, mainly teaching hospitals, which reported the items of HOP among 84 institutions having 500 or more beds. It was found that 472 items and 1,116,888 jesu of the HOP were produced at 34 institutions in 2006. Most institutions prepared $21{\sim}30$ items of HOP, and the number of institutions producing $5,000{\sim}10,000$ forms was most prevalent. Accordingly, for HOPs whose need was identified by this study, pharmaceutical companies should be pressed for commercialization.

The role of the financial institution to promote corporate sustainability may be reviewed in two angles, as a commercial lender and an investor. As a commercial lender, financial institutions should minimize the legal risks and the political risks. Financial institutions began to recognize environmental risks as legal risks that directly affect their lending practices since the legislation of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act("Superfund") of the U.S.A. The so-called lender liability rule has a detailed guideline where the financial institutions may be exempted from the Superfund Liability. Similar attempts are noticed in the recent EU White Paper on Environmental Liability. In Korea, comprehensive environmental liability laws are yet to be developed. The Soil Environment Preservation Act now includes a far-reaching environmental liability provisions, where the owners and operators as well as receivers of the facility bear responsibility. However, whether the financial institutions may be captured as a potential responsible party is not very clear. Until the relevant legislation is developed and court decisions accumulate, Korean financial institutions are well advised to raise awareness on this issue, to develop environmental policies and to train personnels.

The paper discusses the ICT infrastructure as far as the availability of (computers, local or wide area networks, Internet connectivity and its reliability, size of the bandwidth and its optimization, etc.) in the S&T research institution. It also examined the profile of the research scientists and looked at the type of ICT infrastructure that is available for their use as well as the reliability of the Internet connectivity within these research institutions. It looked at the broadband capacities of the research institutions and the ICT capabilities in respect of the technical and managerial support back-up that are available to the research institutions. The study used the survey research method with a questionnaire as well as personal observation to gather the data. From the data gathered, it was realized that the internet connectivity and the size of the bandwidth that the R&D institutions subscribed to differed significantly. Again, the extent to which the research scientists were able to access the internet in their respective institutions depended on the quality of the local network in place. Generally, the investments in ICT were made for different management objectives, and these were meant to facilitate the generation of new knowledge as well as make measurable improvements in R&D activities.

Capital inflows have a strong presence that influences destination countries' development of institutions, which can in turn help resuscitate a stopped economy and re-attract capital that was lost during crises such as the recent public health crisis. While the previous literature emphasizes the mechanism that foreign investors press or even threaten the local government for change, this paper explores empirically whether institutional improvement can be achieved through the channel that host countries voluntarily reform institutions in anticipation of potential investments predicted by the exogenous geographical and cultural characteristics of the recipient countries. Given that countries with better institutional quality can accumulate larger FDI stocks, we still find that the need for more FDI, in contrast to FPI and debt, gives higher incentives to host countries to strategically improve their institutions before seeking capital overseas. Moreover, the predicted FDI exerts more prominent impacts on institutions on constraining elite than those involved in launching a business, enforcing contracts, and protecting properties. The results imply that a long-run plan for upgrading elite constraint institutions is crucial for a post-pandemic FDI reboot.

Women entrepreneurs play a vital role in employment creation, economic development, and growth. Women entrepreneurship is deep-rooted in the social and cultural norms and values of society. Women's entrepreneurship contribution is still invisible and needs to be properly investigated. The current research study explores "how institutions affect women's entrepreneurial performance in Pakistan" by using institutional and social cognitive theories. Focusing on the Formal and informal institutions, this research examines how institutions are affecting women's entrepreneurial performance by taking the mediating role of women's entrepreneurial self-efficacy and ethical decision making. A 7-point Likert scale research questionnaire is used to collect primary data. Data on active entrepreneurs are collected from the Peshawar, Mardan, and Abbottabad divisions of KPK's Women Chambers of Commerce. The data is empirically tested through the path analysis technique of structural equation modeling (SEM) through SMART PLS 3. The results indicated that women's entrepreneurial self-efficacy and ethical decision-making strongly mediate both institutions and significantly affect women's entrepreneurial performance. The study suggests that government and concerned departments should pay due attention to determinants like informal institutions and social constraints to boost women's entrepreneurial performance.

본 연구는 치과의료기관을 대상으로 장애인 편의시설의 설치 실태를 파악하여 향후 장애인의 치과의료기관 이용 편의성 개선을 위한 기초자료로 삼고자 2011년 3월부터 4월까지 충청북도 청주시에 개설신고 된 치과의료기관을 대상으로 조사를 실시하였다. 장애인 편의시설 기준항목을 선정하여 항목별 시설물의 설치 실태를 조사한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 조사대상 의료기관은 치과의원이 대부분을 차지하였고 의료기관 개설 시기는 1990년 이전부터 2011년까지 전체적으로 폭넓게 분포하고 있었으며 건물 내 치과진료실의 위치는 대부분 2-3층에 위치하는 것으로 조사되었다. 치과의원의 장애인 편의시설은 주출입구 접근로 및 승강기의 설치율이 가장 높았고 장애인 주차구역과 장애인용 화장실의 경우 편의시설 중 설치율은 매우 낮게 나타났으나 병원 및 보건소는 조사대상 편의시설이 모두 설치되어 있는 것으로 조사되었다. 또한, 2006년 이후에 개설된 의료기관이 1990년 이전에 개설한 의료기관과 비교하여 편의시설 항목 전체에서 높은 설치율을 보였고, 1-2층에 위치한 경우보다 3층 이상에 위치한 치과의원의 설치율이 모두 높게 나타났다. 장애인 편의시설 설치율은 병원 및 보건소가 높았고 치과의원의 경우 대체로 낮게 조사되어 향후 편의시설의 의무사항을 일차 의료기관까지 확대하는 법적 개선이 필요한 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 장애인들의 치과의료기관 접근 편의성 확보를 위한 기초자료로 활용하는 데 도움이 될 것으로 사료된다.
