Purpose: This study was intended to estimate the prevalence of cemento-osseous dysplasia (COD) in the Korean population and to assess the clinical and radiographic characteristics of this condition. Materials and Methods: Panoramic radiographs from 10,646 patients (4,982 males and 5,664 females, age range from 6 to 91 years) were reviewed for evidence of COD. Their demographics, clinical characteristics, and radiographic features were retrospectively assessed. Results: Of 10,646 panoramic radiographs, 33 radiographs (0.31 %) exhibited evidence of COD. The prevalence of COD increased to over 1 % in women over 40-years old. Of these 33 patients, 16 had florid cemento-osseous dysplasia (FCOD) and 17 had focal COD. Due to the multiplicity of FCOD, a total of 63 COD lesions were assessed. These lesions were most common in the mandibular molar area. Most of the COD lesions examined (61.9%) were less than 10 mm and the majority (82.5%) showed radiopacity. Conclusion : COD has a predilection for the mandibular molar area of middle-aged and older women.

This study was conducted to investigate the correlation between frequency of high-caffeine energy drink intake in adolescents and their mental health status using data from the Korean adolescent health behaviors online survey (2014-15). Mental health was classified by the five categories: Perception of stress (PS), Insufficient relief of fatigue after sleep (IRFS), Experience of sadness despair (SD), Suicidal ideation (SI), and Subjective unhappiness (SU). Regarding general characteristics, higher age, height, and body weight of subjects were associated with higher frequency of high-caffeine energy drink (HCED) intake (p< .0001). In the OR analysis, when the lowest group (${\leq}2/wk$) and highest group ($1{\geq}day$) were compared, the highest group showed significantly higher OR in all five categories of mental health. According to gender, males did not show better PS, SD, and SI than females who had a high frequency of HCED (p for trend<.0001). According to school level, middle school students showed a higher risk rate than high school students in PS, IRFS, and SD (p for trend< .0001). Based on the above results, higher frequency of HCED intake among adolescents was associated with more adverse effects on mental health.

This study was focused on recognitive reaction. The purposes of this study was to analyze the fashion brands through correlation analysis between top of mind, recall, recognition, impact index and consumer behavior, and to identify the graveyard brand, niche brand and core brand. 33 questions about 20 fashion brands were asked to 442 males and females from the middle school students to age of 40. Data were analyzed mean, standard deviation, frequency, and correlation by using SPSS 12.0. The results were as follows: 1. Top of mind, recall and recognition affected recognizing the brands and including evoked setting, but it didn't lead the customer to purchase the brand. 2. Although top of the mind and recall are high, the percentage of purchasing the brand is relatively low if a consumer doesn't own the brand. 3. Brands 'B', 'L', 'PF', 'D' and 'BM' were represented as niche Brands which had high recognition and memory. 4. Brands 'TB', 'I', 'EN', 'ML', 'E' could be Graveyard brands that need special management. 5. Brands with the high impact index were 'A', 'T', 'I', 'C' and 'B'. These brands were recognized as the core brands by consumers.

A sleeve lobectomy is an appropriate operative procedure in patients with endobronchial neoplasms of low-grade malignancies in the proximal airways and for a small but significant number of patients with carcinoma. Here, we present eleven cases of sleeve lobectomy which were performed from 1984 to the August of 1991 in the Department of Thoracic Surgery of Seoul National University Hospital. The sex distribution was 6 males and 5 females in the age range from twenty to sixty seven, with an average of 44.9 years. The pathologic diagnoses were 7 cases of pulmonary malignancies: carcinoid in two, mucoepidermoid carcinoma in two, adenoid cystic carcinoma in one, adenocarcinoma in one, and squamous carcinoma in one. Other diagnoses were two cases of tuberculous bronchial strictures and two cases of benign tumors: one case of pesudolymphoma and one case of neurilemmoma. The procedures consisted of five right upper sleeve lobectomies [Fig. 1], four left upper sleeve lovectomies [Fig. 2], one left lower sleeve lobectomy[Fig. 3], and one right middle and lower lobetomy [Fig. 4]. All except one had a normal preoperative pulmonary function. The case which had a poor pulmonary function was a 66-year-old female adenocarcinoma patient. She seemed to be very intolerable to pneumonectomy [predicted FEV1=0.60L]. Therefore, she had a right sleeve upper lobectomy and experienced smooth postoperative course without any pulmonary problems. All cases had good postoperative results and no postoperative complications.

The roentgenologic appearance of carcinoma of the lung may vary considerably from case to case. And when it forms cavitary lesion, it is frequently confused with benign lesions and treated conservatively. Twenty-seven patients with cavitary bronchogenic carcinoma were treated in our St. Marys Hospital during the period 1984-1989. There were 24 males and 3 females. They ranged in age from 43 to 76 years. Symptoms of cough, blood-streaked sputum or pleuritic chest pain were present in all patients one month to 6 months before hospital admission and 7 patients among them were delayed in recognition of the malignancy from z month to 3 months. Of 27 malignancies with cavity, 22[81.5 %] were squamous cell ca., 3[11.1%] were large cell ca., and 2[7.4%] were adenoca. And of 22 squamous cell carcinomas, 5 were well differentiated, 13 were moderately and 4 were poorly. All lobes except Rt. middle lobe were involved [RUL 2 cases, RLL 13 cases, LUL 3 cases and LLL 9 cases]. We explored 16 patients and performed 7 lobectomy, 4 bi-lobectomy, 2 pneumonectomy and 3 08zC. Post-operative follow-up examination of the resected 13 patients indicated one and two year survival rates of 69.1 %[9/13 cases] and 37.5%[3/8 cases] respectively, and now 6 survivors whose post-operative periods were from 4 months to 37 months.

Generally early surgical extirpation is considered to be beneficial for the treatment of mediastinal tumors and prevention of its complication. The review of the clinical course, histopathologic characteristics and current diagnostic and treatment modalities will help us to decide when to treat and how to treat mediastinal tumors. For this purpose clinical analysis of the 42 patients who were surgically treated from July 1984 to August 1993 in the Chung Ang University Hospital is done in this report. There were 24 males and 18 females[1.3:1], and their age ranged from 1 year to 75 years. Nonspecific symptoms such as chest pain, cough and dyspnea were the most frequently encountered symptoms. Asymptomatic patients were relatively common[21.4%]. The tumors were found most frequently in the posterior mediastinum[45.2%]. Anterior mediastinum was the next and middle and upper mediastinum showed relatively rare occurrence of the tumor. Neurogenic tumor was the most common histopathologic type . Germ cell tumor, benign cyst and thymoma followed it. Curative resection was possible in 27 patients[64%], partial resection in 6 patients[14.3%]and just open biopsy in 7 patients[16.7%]. There was no early operative mortality. Postoperative complications were occurred in 5 patients[11.9%] and most of them were not serious.

The objectives of this study were to group female consumer types according to cosmetics benefits sought at online and off-line cosmetic shopping malls, and to investigate the differences in consumer values, cosmetic purchase behaviors, and demographic variables according to the consumer types. Subjects were 451 females residing in Seoul, of whom 212 were online shoppers and 239 were off-line shoppers. Five dimensions of cosmetics benefits sought were derived by factor analysis. These were functionality, economy, brand, fashion, and practicality. The female consumers were classified into four benefits sought types by cluster analysis of the five dimensions: T.1 'practicality sought type', T.2 'economy sought type', T.3 'brand function sought type', and T.4 'economic function sought type'. Economy sought consumers purchased cosmetics much more from online shopping malls than from off-line. The cosmetics expenses of practicality sought online consumers were low and many of them were in their 20's and middle-class. Economy sought online consumers preferred domestic brand, their cosmetics expenses were low, and many of them were career women. Practicality sought off-line consumers were high in independent value. Economy sought off-line consumers were low in independent value and social approval value, preferred domestic brand, and distributed more in college students than in career women. Brand function sought off-line consumers purchased cosmetics at department store and regarded social approval value as important. Economic function sought off-line consumers were distributed in middle-class and in diverse age range.

This study examined the effectiveness of two commonly used dietary assessment methods (the 24-hour recall and the food frequency questionnaire) in the epidemiological investigations of health-related habits and degenerative diseases. This cross sectional project in the Seoul area was conducted for the purpose of establishing cohort subjects and collecting reliable nutrient intake data for a further large-scale cross sectional study. The subjects were 91 volunteers from the Seoul area with a mean age of 53.5 \pm 9.6 for the males and 52.2 \pm 8.9 for the females. The subjects had a relatively high educational background, were from high socioeconomic levels, and were greatly concerned about healthrelated life styles. There was a significantly negative correlation between their smoking and their nutrient intake. Their drinking habits, their self-estimated health status and their concern or stress about being healthy did not have any influence on their nutrient intakes. Skipping meals was the most undesirable dietary habit influencing their nutrient intakes, and the next was their irregularity of eating meals. The subjects who liked legumes and fish had higher intakes of iron and niacin and those who liked milk and dairy products had higher intakes of calcium, vitamin \B_2 and fat. The subjects who considered themselves not to be healthy consumed higher amounts of fish and shell-fish, and those who considered themselves to be healthy consumed higher amounts of vegetables. The smokers consumed less fruits than non-smokers, but there was no correlation between their drinking and consumption of the food groups. There was no correlation between their food consumption frequency and their skipping meals or meal irregularity. There were positive correlations between their food likes and food consumption frequency for foods such as meat, milk and dairy products, seaweeds and fruits. Therefore, their smoking, skipping meals and meal irregularity appeared to greatly influence their nutrient intakes. Significant correlations were found between their health-related habits and their food group preferences and food frequencies. This implies that simple surveying methods using criteria such as smoking, skipping meals and meal irregularity, food group preferences and eating frequencies can be used as useful tools in the assessment of nutritional statuses.

Objectives: Few studies have focused on health behaviors and health status among teachers even though these are one of principles and values of WHO's Health Promoting Schools. In this study, we described health behaviors and health status among teachers and explored the differences of these by personal and school characteristics. Methods: A stratified and random cluster sampling design was used to obtain a cross-sectional sample. A total of 59 elementary, middle and high schools in Seoul and Gyeonggi areas were included in which 333 teachers (males 40.6%, females 59.4%) participated in this survey. Chi-square tests were conducted with SPSS 17.1. Results: Overall, health behaviors and health status among teachers were better than the general public according to Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Male and middle/high school teachers had higher prevalence of alcohol dependence and of driving under the influence of alcohol. Also, their rate of wearing seat belts were lower compare to female. In other hand, female, health and nutrition teachers, rural school teachers had lower prevalence of meeting recommended levels of physical activity. Underweight were more prevalent to them in contrast to male with higher prevalence of obesity. In addition, teachers of health promoting schools were not likely to ride on a car with a drunk driver. They also have a lower prevalence of skipping breakfast and have higher positive perception of health for themselves. Conclusion: Teachers' health should be given higher concerns as a key component of school based health promotion. Gender and age specific programs should be considered to develop health promoting programs for them.

청소년의 성폭력 개념과 원인에 대한 인식을 규명하기 위해 중 고등학생 694명을 대상으로 설문지 조사를 실시한 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 청소년의 성폭력에 대한 인식정도를 유형별로 볼 때. '신체적성폭력'을 성폭력이라고 인식하는 정도가 가장 높았고 그 다음이 '언어적성폭력', '심리적성폭력 순이었다. 성별로는 남학생이 여학생보다 신체적 성폭력을 성폭력으로 인식하는 정도가 훨씬 낮았다. 이는 남학생은 일반적으로 신체적 성폭력의 가해자인 남성의 입장에 서서 자기중심적으로 사고하기 때문인 것이다. 따라서 성폭력 예방을 포함한 성교육은 여학생보다 남학생에게 더욱 필요하다고 하겠다. 반면 나이에 따른 차이를 보면, 고둥학생이 중학생보다 심리적 성폭력을 성폭력이라고 인식하는 경향이 적었다. 이는 생활연령이 증가할수록 음란물에 노출되는 경험이 많아져 성폭력의 범위를 축소시켜 인식한 결과이다. 따라서 성폭력 예방을 위해서는 주위환경의 정화가 무엇보다 우선되어야 할 것이다. 둘째, 청소년이 인식하는 성폭력 원인을 유형별로 살펴보면 청소년은 사회 환경'을 가장 높은 성폭력 원인으로 인식하였고, 그 다음으로 '지역사회역할'을 지적하여 성폭력 근절을 위해서 주위 환경이 중요함을 다시 한번 일깨워주고 있다. 또한 성폭력 원인에 있어서 남학생은 피해자를 성폭력 원인으로 인식하고 있음으로써 남학생에 대한 성교육의 필요성을 강력히 말해주고 있다.
