  • Background: This study investigated the status of oral health promotion activities for adult workers in public health centers and industrial dental offices and provided basic data for the model development of oral health promotion program for adult workers in Korea. Methods: A questionnaire was developed separately according to the person who in charge of the oral health promotion activities in public health centers nationwide and dental hygienists working in 20 industrial dental offices. This survey was conducted through postal survey and consisted of 29 items and 35 items respectively, including 19 common items for general information, oral health promotion program status and opinion. Statistical analysis was performed using the IBM SPSS ver. 23.0. Results: We analyzed the data of 147 public health centers (57.9%) and 9 industrial dental offices (45.0%). A workforce with a lack of practice was the biggest barrier to oral health promotion activities for adult workers. However, both groups showed high intention for the practice of adult worker's oral health promotion activities. Also, they showed willingness to work together in an organic partnership to perform their roles (94.4% and 77.8%, respectively). Regarding the scope of cooperation in the implementation of the industrial oral health promotion activity linked to the public health center, dental hygienists of industrial dental offices responded that they could coordinate necessary matters and schedule management. Conclusion: The development of an oral health promotion program aided by the relationship between public health centers and industrial dental offices is essential for the oral health promotion of adult workers. The possibility of cooperation between the abovementioned centers was confirmed through this study. In a long-term perspective, it would be necessary to identify a method to institutionalize industrial dental hygienists for the provision of continuous oral health care in workplaces.

  • Objective: To compare the electromyographic activity of masseter and temporal muscles between bruxers and nonbruxers in adult and adolescent patients. Material and Methods: The samples composed of the surface electromyography (EMG) recordings obtained from the orthodontic patients. Sixty-eight patients who had bruxsim habit (43 female and 25 male) were divided into four groups according to their age and gender. Control groups consisted of 79 patients who had not bruxism habit. EMG of the masseter muscle and anterior temporal muscle were recorded before treatment in clenching at maximum intercuspation. The ratio of temporal and masseter muscle activity (T/M ratio) was compared between bruxers and nonbruxers in adult and adolescent patients. Results: EMG of masseter muscle and temporal muscle were significantly higher in adult male bruxism group than control. T/M ratio in adult male bruxism group was significantly lower than in adult male nonbruxism group. However, there was no significant difference in T/M ratio between adolescent bruxism group and adolescent nonbruxism group. Conclusions: The balance in the activity of the masseter and temporal muscles may not differ between bruxers and nonbruxers during adolescent periods. However, in adult period, the masseter muscle activity against temporal muscle is greater in males with bruxism habit compared to non-bruxer.

  • 성인 자살의 폭발적인 증가와 부정적 파급효과에도 불구하고 성인 자살에 관한 연구는 매우 부족한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 스트레스-취약성 모델을 토대로 성인 자살의 독특한 원인과 특성을 살펴보고, 성인 자살의 유형화를 시도하고자 하였다. 분석결과, 자살의 취약성 요인으로는 개인적 요인, 가족환경적 요인, 사회환경적 요인이 밝혀졌다. 개인적 요인은 개인의 특성과 관련된 요인들로 개인의 정신건강문제, 신체건강문제, 문제행동으로 나뉘어졌다. 가족환경적 요인은 취약성 요인 중, 가정환경과 관련된 요인들로 이는 가족관계문제와 경제적 문제로 나뉘어졌으며, 사회환경적 요인은 사회적 관계와 관련된 문제로 직업을 가지고 있지 않는 무직이 포함되었다. 자살의 촉발사건은 촉발사건의 성격에 따라 좌절경험이나 개인적 문제 행동에 의한 개인적 위기사건과 대인관계와 관련되어 있는 대인관계적 사건으로 분류되었다. 개인적 위기사건은 좌절사건과 문제 행동으로 나뉘어졌으며, 대인관계적 사건은 자살자가 자신에게 중요하게 여기는 사람의 죽음이나 관계단절 등을 경험하는 대인관계상실 사건과 대인관계상 갈등으로 인해 자살을 하게 된 대인관계갈등 사건으로 분류되었다. 취약성 요인과 촉발사건의 상호 영향력의 정도에 따라 자살을 유형화하였으며 자살의 촉발사건은 언급되지 않고 취약성 요인만 언급된 취약형 자살, 촉발사건만이 언급된 사건반응형 자살, 그리고 취약성 요인과 촉발사건이 동시에 언급된 복합형 자살로 분류하였다. 자살유형에 따른 특성과 각각의 자살예방법에 대해 논의하였다.

  • The purpose of this study is to provide for the basic data useful to the effective production and marketing of the brassiere befitting adult women's body shapes and preferences, and thereby, help them improve their apparel life. For this purpose, 563 Korean adult women aged between 20-59 were sampled to survey their practices of purchasing the brassieres and positively identify the factors affecting the practices and thereupon, determine the correlations among them by age group. Data is processed by a computer(SAS) and analyzed by using frequency, percentage, $\chi^2$-test, ANOVA, Duncan-test. The main results of this study are as follows; 1. The adult women tend to use such mass media as TV, magazines, catalogues and DM to decide for themselves which brassiere befits them most, and to check the brand-name(78.8%) or the sizes(93.4%), but more than 90% of them purchase their brassieres without trying on them. 2. The places of purchasing on which adult women rely most for their brassiere are department stores(32.6%), agencies(26.1%) and discount or pension shops(25.4%), while more than 90% of the sample women often visit bargain sale shops. The average number of brassieres possessed by our adult women is 5.7, and an adult women buys 2.6 brassiere costing 10-30 thousand wons a year on average and consumes a brassiere for the period from 6 months to 2 years. 3. It had been disclosed that the brand favored most by adult women is Venus(56.2%), followed by Vivien (17.6%), Wacoal(6.8%), Amie(2.5%) and Body Guard(2.3%). The most influential factors for the popularity of brands are fitting condition(40.3%) and design(23.8%), which suggests that consumers appreciate functionality and aesthetics. The most important reference affecting our women's choice of brassiere is size(64.4%), followed by design and functionality. The brassiere style favored most by adult women is a wire-type 3/4 cup brassiere made of thin material with sewing lines, while the most favorite color is white. In all, it has been found through this study that adult women's practices of buying their brassieres differ by age group, which may well suggest that brassiere production need to take such age-wise practices into consideration in setting up their brassiere production and marketing strategies.
