  • Purpose: The objectives of this study were to investigate the prevalence of the metabolic syndrome (MetS) and to identify associated factors with MetS among rural residents. Methods: Data were collected from 1,196 subjects over aged 30 years by a self-administered questionnaire, physical measurement, and blood test in a rural area. The prevalence of MetS was determined by the criteria of the American Heart Association/National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (AHA/NHLBI) and 2005 the Korean society for the study of obesity. Results: The prevalence of MetS was 40.5% for men, 49.2% for women. The prevalence of risk factors of MetS was 57.4% for elevated blood pressure, 49.0% for low HDL-cholesterol, and 48.6% for abdominal obesity. Unemployment and higher Body mass index (BMI) were associated factors for MetS regardless of gender. And higher age and physical inactivity in women only increased the odds of the MetS. Especially, BMI was a strong risk factor of MetS in both men and women. Conclusion: The prevalence of metabolic syndrome was higher in a rural area. Therefore, health care providers should develop lifestyle modification program to increase physical activity level and to prevent the obesity among rural residents in order to decrease the prevalence of MetS.

  • This paper proposes the design and implementation of adaptive naval gun fire simulator on a naval combat system. The proposed simulator can log data, analysis logged data, modify the BCU(Ballistic Computing Unit) S/W in real-time, and evaluate gun fire performance to check it satisfy requirement or not. When the simulation result satisfies the requirement, the BCU S/W is installed on onboard system. The simulation results show that similar result with actual naval gun fire reslult.

  • Objectives: This study has been conducted on public health purposes for people with Menopausal disorders in rural areas. Methods: From February, 2017 to June, 2017, we performed the Korean Medicine in the "Menopausal Disorder Overcoming Program" conducted by the department of Health service, Imsil-Gun bogun Hospital. Menopausal women who participated were treated with acupuncture, moxibustion, Jaeumganghwa-tang for 20 weeks. Of the 34 patients, 16 patients were excluded due to absence of treatment at least once. And 18 treatment outcomes were analyzed. Results: The KI results showed that the average score decreased in 7 out of 11 questions after treatment. The results of BDI, the mean scores of the 17 questions except the 4 questions of the 21 questions after the treatment decreased. 12, 16, and BDI total score were statistically significantly reduced before and after treatment. Conclusions: The results of the Korean Medicine treatment seemed to be effective in alleviating facial flushing, insomnia, depressive symptoms and other symptoms in menopausal disorders.

  • The severe effects of climate change, such as global warming and the El Niño phenomenon, have become more prevalent. In recent years, natural disasters such as drought, heavy rain, and typhoons have taken place, resulting in noticeable damage. Korea is affected by droughts that cause damage to rice fields and crops. Societal interest in droughts is growing, and measures are urgently needed to address their impacts. As the demand for high-quality agricultural products expands, farmers have become more interested in water management, and the demand for field irrigation is increasing. Therefore, we investigated water demand in the irrigation of drought-vulnerable crops. Specifically, we determined the water requirements for crops including cabbage, red pepper, apple, and bean in four regions by calculating the consumptive water use (evapotranspiration), effective rainfall, and irrigation capacity. The total consumptive water use (crop evapotranspiration) estimates for Dangjin-si (cabbage), Yesan-gun (apple), Cheongyang-gun (pepper) in Chungnam, and Goesan-gun (bean) in Chungbuk were 33.5, 206.4, 86.1, and 204.5 mm, respectively. The volumes of groundwater available in the four regions were determined to be the following: Dangjin-si, 4,968,000 m3; Yesan-gun, 4,300,000 m3; Cheongyang-gun, 1,114,000 m3, and Goesan-gun, 3,794,000 m3. The annual amounts available for the representative crops, compared to the amount of evapotranspiration, were 313.9% in Dangjin-si, 29.5% in Yesan-gun, 56.1% in Cheongyang-gun, and 20.1% in Goesan-gun.
