  • A costume reveals the social characteristics of the era in which it is worn, thus we can say that the history of change of the costume is the history of change of the living culture of the era. Since the Three States era, the costume structure of this country had been affected by the costume system of the China's historical dynasties in the form of the grant therefrom because of geographical conditions, which affection was conspicuous for the bureaucrat class, particularly including but not limited to the Kings' familities. Such a grant of the costume for the bureaucrat class (i.e., official uniform) was first given by the Dang-dynasty at the age of Queen Jinduck, the 28th of the Shilla-dynasty. Since then, the costume for the bureaucrats had consecutively been affected as the ages had gone from the unified Shilla, to the Koryo and to the Yi-dynasty. As the full costumes officially used by government officials (generally called "Baek Gwan") in the Yidynasty, there existed Jo-bok, Gong-bok and Sang-bok. Of such official costumes, Gong-bok was worn at the time of conducting official affairs of the dynasty, making a respectful visit for the expression of thanks or meeting diplomatic missions of foreign countries. It appears no study was made yet with regard to the Gong-bok while the studies on the Jo-bok and the Sangbok were made. Therefore, this article is, by rendering a study and research on the styles of costumes of civil servants' stone images erected at the Kings' tombs of the Yi-dynasty, to help the persons concerned understand the Gong-bok, one of the official costume for Baek Kwan of that age and further purports to specifically identify the styles and changes of the Gong-bok, worn by Baek Gwan during the Yi-dynasty, consisting of the Bok-doo (a hat, four angled and two storied with flat top), Po (gown), Dae (belt), and Hol (small and thin plate which was officially held by the government officials in hand, showing the courtesy to and writing brief memorandums before the King) and Hwa (shoes). For that purpose, I investigated by actually visiting the tombs of the Kings of the Yi-dynasty including the Geonwon-neung, the tomb of the first King Tae-jo and the You-neung, the tomb of the 27th King Soon-jong as well as the tombs of the lawful wives and concubines of various Kings, totalling 29 tombs and made reference to relevant books and records. Pursuant. to this study, of the 29 Kings' tombs the costume styles of civil servants' stone images erected at the 26 Kings' tombs are those of Gong-bok for Baek-gwan of the Yi-dynasty wearing Bok-doo as a hat and Ban-ryeong or Dan-ryenog Po as a gown with Dae, holding Hol in hand and wearing shoes. Other than those of the 26 tombs, the costume styles of the Ryu-neung, the tomb of the Moon-jo who was the first son of 23rd King Soon-jo and given the King's title after he died and of the You-neung, the tomb of the 27th King Soon-jong are those of Jobok with Yang-gwan (a sort of hat having stripes erected, which is different from the Bok-doo), and that of the Hong-neung, the tomb of the 26th King Go-jong shows an exceptional one wearing Yang-gwan and Ban-ryeong Po ; these costume styles other than Gongbok remain as the subject for further study. Gong-bok which is the costume style of civil servants' stone images of most of the Kings' tombs had not been changed in its basic structure for about 500 years of the Yi-dynasty and Koryo categorized by the class of officials pursuant to the color of Po and materials of Dae and Hol. Summary of this costume style follows: (1) Gwan-mo (hat). The Gwan-mo style of civil servants' stone images of the 26 Kings' tombs, other than Ryu-neung, Hong-neung and You-neung which have Yang-gwan, out of the 29 Kings' tombs of the Yi-dynasty reveals the Bok-doo with four angled top, having fore-part and back-part divided. Back part of the Bok-doo is double the fore-part in height. The expression of the Gak (wings of the Bokdoo) varies: the Gyo-gak Bok-doo in that the Gaks, roundly arisen to the direction of the top, are clossed each other (tombs of the Kings Tae-jong), the downward style Jeon-gak Bok-doo in that soft Gaks are hanged on the shoulders (tombs of the Kings Joong-jong and Seong-jong) and another types of Jeon-gak Bok-doo having Gaks which arearisen steeply or roundly to the direction of top and the end of which are treated in a rounded or straight line form. At the lower edge one protrusive line distinctly reveals. Exceptionally, there reveals 11 Yang-gwan (gwan having 11 stripes erected) at the Ryu-neung of the King Moon-jo, 9 Yang-gwan at the Hong-neung of the King Go-jong and 11 Yang-gwan at the You-neung of the King Soon-jong; noting that the Yang-gwan of Baek Kwan, granted by the Myeong-dynasty of the China during the Yi-dynasty, was in the shape of 5 Yang-gwan for the first Poom (class) based on the principle of "Yideung Chaegang" (gradual degrading for secondary level), the above-mentioned Yang-gwans are very contrary to the principle and I do not touch such issue in this study, leaving for further study. (2) Po (gown). (a) Git (collar). Collar style of Po was the Ban-ryeong (round collar) having small neck-line in the early stage and was changed to the Dan-ryeong (round collar having deep neck-line) in the middle of the: dynasty. In the Dan-ryeong style of the middle era (shown at the tomb of the King Young-jo); a, thin line such as bias is shown around the internal side edge and the width of collar became wide a little. It is particularly noted that the Ryu-neung established in the middle stage and the You-neung in the later stage show civil servants in Jo-bok with the the Jikryeong (straight collar) Po and in case of the Hong-neung, the Hong-neung, the tomb of the King Go-jong, civil servants, although they wear Yang-gwan, are in the Ban-ryeong Po with Hoo-soo (back embroidery) and Dae and wear shoes as used in the Jo-bok style. As I could not make clear the theoretical basis of why the civil servants' costume styles revealed, at these tombs of the Kings are different from those of other tombs, I left this issue for further study. It is also noted that all the civil servants' stone images show the shape of triangled collar which is revealed over the Godae-git of Po. This triangled collar, I believe, would be the collar of the Cheomri which was worn in the middle of the Po and the underwear, (b) Sleeve. The sleeve was in the Gwan-soo (wide sleeve) style. having the width of over 100 centimeter from the early stage to the later stage arid in the Doo-ri sleeve style having the edge slightly rounded and we can recognize that it was the long sleeve in view of block fold shaped protrusive line, expressed on the arms. At the age of the King Young-jo, the sleeve-end became slightly narrow and as a result, the lower line of the sleeve were shaped curved. We can see another shape of narrow sleeve inside the wide sleeve-end, which should be the sleeve of the Cheom-ri worn under the Gong-bok. (c) Moo. The Moo revealed on the Po of civil servants' stone images at the age of the King Sook-jong' coming to the middle era. Initially the top of the Moo was expressed flat but the Moo was gradually changed to the triangled shape with the acute top. In certain cases, top or lower part of the Moo are not reveald because of wear and tear. (d) Yeomim. Yeomim (folding) of the Po was first expressed on civil servants' stone images of the Won-neung, the tomb of the King Young-jo and we can seemore delicate expression of the Yeomim and Goreum (stripe folding and fixing the lapel of the Po) at the tomb of the Jeongseong-wanghoo, the wife of the King Young-jo, At the age of the King Soon-jo, we can see the shape of Goreum similar to a string rather than the Goreum and the upper part of the Goreum which fixes Yeomim was expressed on the right sleeve. (3) Dae. Dae fixed on the Po was placed half of the length of Po from the shoulders in the early stage. Thereafter, at the age of the King Hyeon-jong it was shown on the slightly upper part. placed around one third of the length of Po. With regard to the design of Dae, all the civil servants' stone images of the Kings' tombs other than those of the Geonwon-neung of the King Tae-jo show single or double protrusive line expressed at the edge of Dae and in the middle of such lines, cloud pattern, dangcho (a grass) pattern, chrysanthemum pattern or other various types of flowery patterns were designed. Remaining portion of the waist Dae was hanged up on the back, which was initially expressed as directed from the left to the right but thereafter expressed. without orderly fashion,. to the direction of the left from the right and vice versa, Dae was in the shape of Yaja Dae. In this regard, an issue of when or where such a disorderly fashion of the direction of the remaining portion of waist Dae was originated is also presented to be clarified. In case of the Ryuneung, Hong-neung and You-neung which have civil servants' stone images wearing exceptional costume (Jo-bok), waist Dae of the Ryu-neung and Hong-neung are designed in the mixture of dual cranes pattern, cosecutive beaded pattern and chrvsenthemum pattern and that of You-neung is designed in cloud pattern. (4) Hol. Although materials of the Hol held in hand of civil servants' stone images are not identifiable, those should be the ivory Hol as all the Baek Gwan's erected as stone images should be high class officials. In the styles, no significant changes were found, however the Hol's expressed on civil servants' stone images of the Yi-dynasty were shaped in round top and angled bottom or round top and bottom. Parcicularly, at the age of the King Young-jo the Hol was expressed in the peculiar type with four angles all cut off. (5) Hwa (shoes). As the shoes expressed on civil servants' stone images are covered with the lower edges of the Po, the styles thereof are not exactly identifiable. However, reading the statement "black leather shoes for the first class (1 Poom) to ninth class (9 Poom)," recorded in the Gyeongkook Daejon, we can believe that the shoes were worn. As the age went on, the front tips of the shoes were soared and particularly, at the Hong-neung of the King Go-jong the shoes were obviously expressed with modern sense as the country were civilized.

  • 목 적:본 연구에서는 노인 수면 무호흡증과 성인 수면 무호흡증에서의 특성들을 비교하고, 이미 알려진 성인 수면무호흡증에서의 위험인자들과 노인 수면무호흡증에서의 호흡장애지수 사이의 상관관계를 살펴 노인 수면무호흡증의 특징을 조사하고자 하였다. 방 법:호흡장애지수가 5 이상이면서 연령이 20세 이상인 275명의 수면 무호흡증 환자들을 대상으로 하였고, 연구 대상에게 간단한 신체검사, Pittsburgh 수면질척도, Epworth 졸림증 척도 등을 포함한 설문지 평가, 수면다원검사를 시행 하였다. 60세 미만의 성인 수면무호흡증 집단과 60세 이상의 노인 수면무호흡증 집단 간에 자료들이 비교, 분석 되었다. 결 과:노인과 성인 수면무호흡증에서 호흡장애지수, 무호흡지수, 90% 미만 산소포화도 기간의 백분율, Pittsburgh 수면질척도 등은 두 집단 간에 차이가 없었다. 노인 수면무호흡증은 성인 수면무호흡증에 비해 폐쇄성 무호흡지수와 산소포화도저하지수가 낮았다. 또한 통계적 유의성은 없으나, 최저 산소포화도와 중추성 무호흡지수가 높았다. 노인 수면무호흡증에서 체질량지수와 목둘레가 성인 수면무호흡증에 비해 작았다. 확장기 혈압도 노인에서 성인 수면무호흡증에 비해 낮았으나, 수축기 혈압은 두 집단 간에 차이가 없었다. 노인 수면무호흡증에서 성인에 비해 Epworth 졸림증 척도 점수가 낮았다. 성인 수면무호흡증에서는 호흡장애지수와 체질량지수 사이에 유의한 상관관계가 있었으나, 노인 수면무호흡증에서는 두 변수 사이에 상관관계가 관찰되지 않았다. 이와 유사한 결과가 호흡장애지수와 목둘레, 수축기 혈압, 그리고 확장기 혈압 사이에서도 나타났다. 결 론:노인 수면무호흡증 집단은 비만하지 않았고, 노인에서의 수면무호흡증의 심각도는 체중과 관련이 없었다. 또한, 노인에서는 수면무호흡증이 행동과 심혈관계에 미치는 영향이 현저하지 않았는데, 이는 노인 수면무호흡증에서 성인에 비해 산소포화도저하지수가 낮고, 최저 산소포화도가 상대적으로 높은 것에 의해 일부 설명되어질 수 있을 것이다. 체중 증가보다는 정상 노화과정이 합병증이 적은 노인 수면무호흡증 발생에 좀 더 기여하는 것으로 생각된다.

  • 본 연구는 만 40세 중년기의 대규모 성인을 대상으로 우울한 기분상태와 비만, 복부비만, 대사증후군, 혈압 검사, 혈액 검사 및 요검사의 건강특성 그리고 영양 생활습관 특성과의 관련성을 파악하고, 이들을 대상으로 효과적인 건강증진 프로그램을 개발하는데 기초자료로 활용하고자 시도하였다. 연구는 2011년 1월 1일부터 12월 31일까지 전국의 16개 한국건강관리협회 건강증진의원을 방문하여 생애전환기 건강진단을 수검한 총 27,684명의 검진결과에 대해 생애전환기 1차 건강진단의 문진에서의 정신건강 간이검사 결과에 따라 우울기분군과 비우울군을 분류하여 건강상태 및 영양생활습관과의 관련성을 분석하였고 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 전체 연구대상자의 6.4%인 1,781명은 우울기분군으로, 93.6%인 25,903명은 비우울군으로 분류되었다. 성별로는 남성의 4.3%, 여성의 8.0%가 우울기분군으로 우울기분의 분포는 남성보다 여성에서 유의하게 높았으며, 지역에 따라 다소 편차를 보였고, 건강보험가입자보다 경제적으로 취약한 의료급여수급자에서 높은 분포를 보였다. 또한 가족력이 없는 경우보다 있는 경우, 기존질환이 없는 경우보다 있는 경우 우울기분의 높은 분포가 유의하게 높았다. 체질량지수 (BMI)가 18.5 $kg/m^2$ 이하의 저체중에서 우울기분과의 관련성이 유의하게 높았으나 과체중 및 비만군은 정상군과 유의적 차이를 보이지 않았다. 그러나 허리둘레 기준 남성 90 cm 이상/여성 85 cm 이상의 복부비만에서 우울기분의 분포가 유의하게 높았고, 복부비만에서 우울기분의 오즈비가 유의하게 증가함을 보였다. 체질량지수의 저체중과 복부비만은 다른 일반 특성 및 흡연, 음주, 신체활동 등의 보정 후에도 유의적인 관련성을 나타냈다. 혈액 및 요검사 결과에서는 HDL-콜레스테롤과 트리글리세라이드 결과에 대한 질환의심 비율이 비우울군에서 유의하게 높았으며, 혈색소 결과에서는 질환의심의 비율이 우울기분군에서 유의하게 높았으나, 우울기분의 오즈비에 대해서는 다른 일반 특성 및 흡연, 음주, 신체활동 등의 보정 후 모두 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 영양생활습관 평가 결과에서는 총점 28점 미만으로 바람직하지 않은 식습관을 갖고 있는 비율이 우울기분군에서 비우울군보다 유의하게 높았다. 특히 '우유, 두유, 유제품', '육류, 생선, 달걀, 콩, 두부를 통한 단백질 식품', '김치이외의 채소', '과일이나 과일 주스' 등의 섭취빈도가 낮을수록 '매끼 정해진 시간 식사'를 하지 못하는 경우에 우울기분과 더 높은 관련성을 가지는 결과를 보여주었다. 결론적으로 본 연구에서는 중년기 만 40세 성인의 우울기분은 영양 생활습관과 체질량지수 및 허리둘레에 따른 주요 건강특성과 관련성을 가지고 있으며, 부정적인 영양생활습관은 우울기분과 높은 관련성을 가지고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 이들을 대상으로 효과적인 질병예방과 건강증진 프로그램을 제공하기 위해서는 심리적 정신적인 건강관리를 위한 지원을 함께 병행하는 것이 매우 중요하며, 우울기분의 관리를 위해서는 영양생활습관의 개선을 교육, 지원하는 것이 필요하다 사료된다.

  • 치면열구전색술이 건강보험급여 항목에 포함된 이후 진료경향을 분석하여 치아우식예방을 파악하고자 2009년 12월 1일부터 2014년 12월 31일까지 건강보험심사평가원 대전지원에 접수된 요양급여비용 명세서를 분석하였다. 연도별 치면열구전색술 현황을 살펴보면, 2010년에 수진자 수와 수진자 처치 치아수가 가장 많았고, 1인당 평균 처치 치아수는 2013년에 3.39개로 가장 높게 나타났다. 일반적 특성에 따른 2010년 제1대구치 치면열구전색술을 분석한 결과 남자가 여자보다 높았고, 연령별에서는 7세에서 가장 높게 나타났고 계절별로는 여름이 가장 높았다. 각 제1대구치 분포에서는 상악좌측 제1대구치가 가장 높았으며 그 외는 상악우측 제1대구치, 하악우측 제1대구치, 하악좌측 제1대구치 순으로 나타났다. 2010년에 상악 우측 제1대구치에 치면열구전색술한 후 치아우식이 발생되어 2011년부터 2014년에 충전을 시행한 치아를 분석한 결과, 남자가 여자보다 높게 나타났고, 연령별에서는 7세에서 가장 많은 충전을 실시하였으며, 계절별로는 여름에 가장 많이 실시한 것으로 나타났다. 2009년 12월부터 2014년 11월까지의 치료 치아수를 토대로 2015년 12월까지 치아 치료수를 예측한 결과 2015년도 8월에 가장 높은 수요가 나타날 것으로 예측되고 2014년에 비해 감소될 것으로 예측된다. 따라서, 칫솔질만으로는 치아우식증 예방에 한계가 있으므로 높은 예방효과를 보이는 치면열구전색술 실시를 영유아 및 초,중,고 구강보건실등에서 정기적인 실시한다면 치아우식 예방효과가 있을것으로 기대된다.

  • The purpose of this study was to evaluate the patterns of stresses arising from various life styles and their related sociodemographic factors in urban residents. The subjects were recruited from the population of two ‘Dong’s (administrative blocks) representative of Daejeon city through stratified cluster random sampling during the period ranging from June I st to Aug. 31 st, 2003. Self-administered questionnaires, including items asking about subjects' sociodemographic characteristics, daily life styles, measurement of stresses by General Health Questionnaire (Goldberg, 1978), were delivered to 396 residents and their responses were analyzed with the following results. 1. Based on the discriminant scores of HPI, 46.7% of the subjects were found to have less than 4 points (poor life style), whereas 53.3% had points higher than 5 (good life style). Higher than 5 points were scored more frequently in females than in the male, in the age group of 40's - 60's than the 30's, in the group with spouse than without, in the group with both spouse and offsprings than without, and in the group owning a house than not. 2. Based on the degree of stress, 17.7% of the subjects were determined to be healthy, 74.5% were potentially under stress, and 7.8% were at higher risk of stress. The proportion of healthy individuals were significantly higher in the male, advanced aged group(40's and 60's), the group with higher education years( over highschool), with higher monthly income over two million Won, and with spouse, than their respective counterparts. On the other hand the proportion of the individuals potentially under stress and at higher risk of stress was significantly higher in the female, in the age group of 30's and over 60's, in the group with academic career lower than middle school, with monthly income lower than two million Won, and without spouse. 3. Based on the relation of HPI with degree of stresses, subjects with HPI scores lower than 4 had increased rate of falling into the groups under potential stress and at higher risk of stress, while on the other hand those with over 5 points were found to be healthy in light of stress. 4. Based on the specific relation of each item of HPI with degree of stress, the proportion of healthy individuals was higher in the groups who take appropriate hours of sleep(7-8hours), who take breakfasts everyday, who take physical exercises everyday, who don't smoke, who don't drink alcohol, who take snacks everyday, who are overweight and obese, whereas the proportion of the group under potential stress and at higher risk of stress was higher in their comparable counterparts. 5. The relation of mean scores of HPI with stress scores in both male and female subjects showed negative correlation that the higher HPI scores, the lower stress scores. 6. Multivariate regression analysis to reveal the factors influencing the stress of the subjects showed that for men the significant factors were age, education, presence of job or not, exercise, subjective health status, with the explanatory power of 26.3%. For women, they included educational years, presence of spouse or not, job, owning a house or not, sleeping hours, drinking habit, taking snacks, subjective health status, with the explanatory power of 31.8%. The above study results suggests that stresses of urban residents have significant correlation with daily life styles and this correlation is also remarkably distinguished by different age and sex.

  • This is a study for the construction of nursing care based upon the Korean attitude toward medicine. Factors which were investigated include the source of nursing care, the reason for choosing care, the type of heath care chosen, the accessability of caregivers, and the desired location of death. The population examined in this study consisted of 517 adults distributed in six large cities and 191 adults from five rural communities. Data was analyzed using frequency, percent, Cronbach alpha, $X^2$ - test, t - test, F - test and scheffe post hoc contrast with an SAS program. The results of this study are summarized as follows: 1. Among sources of nursing care used, first rank rated-pharmacy(54.4), private hospital(18.2), general hospital(8.4), folk remedies in house (5.0), chinese hospital(2.8), prayer(2.8) and others(8.4), and the reasons for choosing nursing care rated 'the easiest method' (63.6), 'the best method'(15.7), 'reliable'(10.8) and 'lower cost burden'(4.6) in order of preference. 2. The type of nursing care chosen rated western medicine(6.80), chinese medicine(6.15), folk remedies(5.46), faith remedies(3.51) and divination remedies (1.41). There were significant differences in the effect recognition degree to various kinds of medicine. 3. The difference of the type of nursing care chosen according to general characteristics showed that urban residents were higher than rural community residents(t=2.15, p=0.0320) in western medicine, and urban residents, women, and singles were higher than rural community residents(t=2.04, p=0.0414), men (t= -2.89, p=0.0039), and married(t=2.50, p= 0.0126) on folk remedies. With repect to age and education those 21-30, under 20 and 31-40, graduated from college and graduate school were higher than above 51, above 61 (F = 7.76, p = 0.0001), graduated from elementary school(F=4.39, p=0.0006) on folk remedies. In other categories, rural community residents, women, younger people. Christians were higher than urban residents ( t = -2.73, p=0.0305), men(t= -4.15, p=0.0001), older people (F=2.48, p=0.0307), Catholic, Buddhist, or atheist (F= 70.18, p=0.0001) on faith remedies. Those graduated from high school and Buddhist were higher than unschooled, graduated from middle school(F=3.18, p= 0.0075), atheist, Catholic or Christian(F=18.32, p=0.0001) on divination redemies. There were significant differences concerning age and education level. 4. The accessibility of caregivers rated 'caregivers should be nearby if the patients need them' (50.0), 'caregivers must be there all day (24 hours)' (39.6), 'caregivers must be there at night only'(5.0), 'caregivers must be there during the day only'(2.6), 'caregivers always should visit during visiting hours' 0.4), 'caregivers don't need to be there at all' (1.2). The frist rank of suitable caregivers were rated as spouse(66.6), mother(24.2), daughter (3.6), daughter-in-law(1.9), and the reasons of thinking thus were rated as 'the most comfortable' (81.5), 'people should correctly with regards to family they'(7.1), 'the easiest' (5.4), 'take good care of the patient' (5.1) and 'lower cost burden' (0.4). 5. The desired location of death rated as the following: his/her house (91. 6) to the hospital(8. 4). A person going to encounter death in the hospital wanted his house(78.5) over the hospital(21.5), and a person dieing in the hospital prefered his house(52.9) over the hospital(47.1) as a funeral ceremony place. The following suggestions are made based on the above results. 1. A sampling method that enhances the re presentativeness should be used in regional and/or national related research and replicated to confirm the result of this study. 2. This study should be used to understand the Korean view of medical centers and to meet the expectations of patients in Korean nursing. 3. Research on the Korean traditional view of humans and expectations of the sick, health and illness, and health behavior, the perception of dying, the decision to heal, and the view of general medicine should continue to be conducted continuosly so that Korean nursing theory can be advanced on these concepts.

  • 본 연구는 문제음주자의 성별에 따른 정신건강, 대사증후군과 영양소 섭취를 비교하기 위해 시도 되었다. 2010-2012년까지 실시된 제5기 국민건강 영양조사를 원시자료를 이용하여, 19세 이상의 음주하는 성인 남, 녀 중 AUDIT (Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test) 12점 이상 자를 문제음주자로 선별하여, 최종 669명을 대상으로 하였다. 문제음주자의 정신건강은 스트레스, 우울, 자살생각을, 대사증후군은 허리둘레, BMI(body mass index), 공복혈당(fasting blood sugar), HDL(highdensity lipoprotein), Triglyceride, BP(blood pressure) 중 3가지 이상 정상범위에서 벗어나는 경우로 구분하였으며, 영양소 섭취는 에너지와 9개의 영양소의 적정 섭취비(Nutrient adequacy ratio:NAR) 및 평균 영양소 적정 섭취비(Mean adequacy ratio: MAR)를 구하여 확인하였다. SPSS18.0을 이용하여, 빈도와 교차분석, 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과 일반적 특성은 연령, 결혼상태, 직업유무에서, 정신건강은 스트레스, 우울, 자살생각에서 유의한 차이가 있었고. 대사증후군은 대사증후군 여부, FBS, HDL, BP에서 유의한 차이가 있었으며, 영양소 섭취는 Calcium, Vit. A, Thiamine, Riboflavin, Niacin, Vit. C, MAR에서 유의한 차이가 있었다. 각각 유의한 차이를 보인 변수에 대해서 로지스틱 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 스트레스, 우울, 자살생각은 남성의 경우 19-29세, 여성은 30-49세가 유의하게 많았고, 대사증후군은 남성은 직업이 있는 경우와, 여성은 미혼과 경제상태가 '중-하'인 경우가 더 많았다. 평균 영양소 적정 섭취비(MAR)는 남성은 미혼, 기취업, 경제상태가 '중-하' 인 경우, 여성의 경우는 경제상태가 '하'수준일수록 더 많았다. 문제 음주자의 정신건강, 대사증후군, 영양섭취문제를 해결하기 위한 접근과 중재를 계획 할 때 본 연구를 통하여 확인된 유의한 차이를 보인 특성들을 고려한다면, 보다 효과적으로 도움을 줄 수 있을 것이라 생각된다.

  • Background: Tobacco smoking is a major cause of preventable disease and death worldwide. Kreteks are clove-flavored cigarettes made from a combination of tobacco and ground-clove mixed with a sauce, smoked widely in Indonesia. Because health and social consequences of kretek smoking are potentially as great as those of traditional cigarettes, this study examines the prevalence of kretek smoking in Indonesia and associated risk factors. Materials and Methods: The study used nationally representative Indonesia Global Adult Tobacco Survey data. Multiple logistic regression analysis was employed to identify correlates of kretek smoking. Results: One-third of Indonesian adults smoked tobacco of which about 90.0% smoked kreteks. Prevalence of kretek smoking among men (60.9%) was more than 25 times the rate among women (2.3%). Overall, the highest prevalence of kretek use was in the age group 45-54 years (36.5%), followed by 34-44 (35.1%), 25-34 (34.2 %), and 55-64 years (32.8%). By wealth index, prevalence of kreteks smoking among those in the middle index was almost 50% above the rate for the wealthiest group (36.4% vs 24.8% respectively). Logistic regression results showed that being male, being older, having less education, and being less wealthy were significant predictors of kretek smoking, while urban vs rural residence was not. Conclusions: Kretek smoking is common in Indonesia and is entrenched in the sociocultural fabric of the country. However, potential consequences of kretek smoking, particularly as risks for noncommunicable diseases, underscore the importance of a comprehensive approach to tobacco control as outlined in the World Health Organization's MPOWER strategies.

  • Background: The polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), characterized by hyperandrogenism and chronic anovulation, is a common endocrine disorder in women. PCOS, which is associated with polycystic ovaries, hirsutism, obesity and insulin resistance, is a leading cause of female infertility. In this condition there is an imbalance in female sex hormones. All the sequelae symptoms of PCOS gradually lead to cancer in the course of time. It is heterogeneous disorder of unknown etiology so it is essential to find the exact cause. Materials and Methods: In this study both invasive and non-invasive techniques were employed to establish the etiology. Diagnosis was based on Rotterdam criteria (hyperandrogenism, ovulatory dysfunction, PCOM) and multiparameters using buccal samples and dermatoglypic analysis and cytogenetic study for 10 cases and four age and sex matched controls. Results: In clinical analysis we have observed the mean value of total testosterone level was 23.6nmol/L, total hirsutism score was from 12-24, facial acne was found in in 70% patients with 7-12 subcapsular follicular cysts, each measuring 2-8 mm in diameter. In dermatoglypic analysis we observed increases in mean value ($45.9^{\circ}$) of ATD angle when compared with control group and also found increased frequency (38%) of Ulnar loops on both fingers (UU), (18%) whorls on the right finger and Ulnar loop on left finger (WU) and (16%) arches on right and left fingers (AA) were observed in PCOS patients when compared with control subjects. Features which could be applied as markers for PCOS patients are the presence of Ulnar loops in middle and little fingers of right and left hand. The buccal micronucleus cytome assay in exfoliated buccal cells, we found decrease in frequency of micronuclei and significant increases in frequency of karyolysed nuclei in polycystic ovarian syndrome patients. Chromosome aberration analysis revealed a significant increase in frequency of chromosome aberrations (CAs) in PCOS patients when compared with controls. Conclusions: From this present work it can be concluded that non-invasive technique like dermatoglypics analysis and buccal micronucleus cytome assays with exfoliated buccal cell can also be effective biomarkers for PCOS, along with increased CAs in lymphocytes as a sign of genetic instability. There is a hypothesis that micronuclei and chromosomal aberrations could have a predictive value for cancer. From this present work it can be concluded to some extent that non-invasive technique like dermatoglypics and buccal cell analysis can also be effective for diagnosis.

  • The purpose of this study was to examine the image of dental hygienists. The subjects in the study were 396 patients and their caregivers who visited 14 dental hospitals and dentists' offices in and around Seoul. After a survey was conducted, the following findings were given: 1. The people investigated gave a mean of 4.0 to the image of dental hygienists. Dental hygienists rated highest in terms of looking neat and tidy(4.33), and were given the lowest marks in arbitrary job performance(3.46). 2. There appeared four different types of dental hygienist images, which made a 59.824 prediction of the image of dental hygienists in general. A typical image(4.11) was most dominant, followed by professional one(4.07), personal one(4.01) and social one(3.73). 3. The relations between the general characteristics of the respondents and their image of dental hygienists could be described as below: 1) By age, those who were in their 60s(4.12) had the best image of dental hygienists, and the teenagers(3.90) had the worst image of them. 2) By gender, the men(4.05) looked at dental hygienists more positively than the women(3.96). They had a significantly different opinion on the social image of dental hygienists according to gender(pE0.05). 3) By marital status, the married people(4.00) had a better image of dental hygienists than the unmarried ones(3.95). 4) As for the influence of the type of dental institutions, they had a more favorable image of dental hygienists in dentists' offices(4.13) than in dental hospitals(3.88). There was a broad significant difference in the way they looked at the professional and personal images of dental hygienists according to the type of dental institutions(pE0.001). 5) As to the impact of educational level, those who received community-college or higher education(4.01) had the best image of dental hygienists, and those who received middle-school or lower education(3.91) had the worst image of them. 6) By occupation, the government workers and students(4.07) had the best image of dental hygienists, and the company employees(3.90) had the worst image of them. They took a significantly different view of the social image of dental hygienists according to occupation(pE0.05). 7) Concerning the impact of the frequency of receiving dental treatment, the respondents who had received it seven times or more(4.16) had the best image of dental hygienists, and those who hadn't(3.79) the worst image of them. There was a wide significant gap according to that frequency. The way they looked at the typical, social and professional images of dental hygienists was quite different significantly according to that frequency as well(pE0.001). 8) As for the influence of whether they were accompanied by caregivers or not, the people who weren't accompanied by caregivers(3.99) had a better image of dental hygienists than those who were(3.97).
