  • 본 연구는 노인의 구강 건강 향상의 방안으로 구강운동프로그램을 47명에 대하여 시행하여 39명의 대조군과 비교하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 타액분비량은 실험군이 0.075 ml로 대조군 0.046 ml 보다 0.029 ml 증가하여 구강운동으로 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 2. 최대 개구량은 실험군이 4.12 cm로 대조군 3.92 cm 보다 0.20 cm 증가하여 구강운동으로 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 3. 구강 교호 운동량은 실험군이 초당 1.69회에서 초당 2.03회보다 0.34회 증가하여, 구강운동으로 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이 결과 구강운동이 노인의 구강건강 뿐만 아니라 추후 구강운동을 고령화 시대 노인의 건강 증진 방안의 일환으로 적극 활용할 수 있도록 해야 할 것이다.

  • 본 연구는 종묘공원이라는 노인집단문화지역 속 노인들의 상호작용을 살펴봄으로써 그들의 삶을 이해하고 노인복지 실천의 시사점을 찾고자 하는 목적을 지니고 있다. 이를 위해 연구자는 2007년 12월에 연구현장에 진입하여 1년이 넘게 참여관찰을 하였으며 종묘공원 노인들과 그 주변의 이해 당사자들을 대상으로 심층 면접을 실시하여 자료를 수집했다. 자료는 스프래들리(Spradley, 1979)가 제시한 방법에 따라 종묘공원과 그 주변에서 시간을 보내는 노인들의 생활에 대해 영역을 확인 한 후 분류분석과 성분분석을 시행하였다. 이러한 과정을 통해 종묘공원 노인들의 집단 문화를 '잊었거나 혹은 밀어낸 욕망의 발현점', '불시착한 땅에서의 탈출', '죽은 시간 살려내기'라는 문화적 주제를 확인하였다. 노인집단 문화지역의 연구를 통해 노인들의 향 후 복지정책의 방향성을 제언하였다.

  • Functional ability is an important criterion to predict the capability of older persons to maintain independent living in the community setting. This study focused on the effect of built-environment features to ameliorate declines in functional ability and reduce the likelihood of relocation. Using longitudinal data from the Asset and Health Dynamics Among the Oldest Old (1993, 1995), relocation was analyzed for 6,225 respondents aged 70 or older. Findings are that while functional decline in household activities of daily living among older persons increased their residential moves in the community, functional declines in basic activities of daily living, household activities of daily living, and advanced activities of daily living among them increased their entrance into an institutional care facility However, they were less likely to enter an institutional care facility when their home was equipped with built-environment features such as street level ramps, special railings, modifications to allow someone in a wheelchair, grab bars or shower seat in the bathroom, and special call device or system to get help.

The scope of research includes 40 remodeling houses free of charge which are broadcasted in the TV program 'Love House'. Taking in consideration the characteristics of users like parentless or single-parent families and families with disabled persons, this study uses the spatial approach, user's convenience approach and psychological problem solving approach, in terms of the methodology. In result of the analysis of their interior design, first of all, it is essential solving the problem of limited house space by comparison with the family number. Second, the universal design concept for the family with disabled persons(72.5%), old persons or children is strengthened guaranteeing privacy in small and old interior space. Third, the interior design is focused in increasing communication among family members, because mental and physical obstacle would obstruct accessibility among them. This research shows the importance of the interior design which makes wide social roles contributing to create "welfare society".

The studied persons who were dental students of the School of Dentistry Seoul National University (SNU), nurses and dental auxiliaries of the SNU Hospital, had no pain or severe symptoms of dysfunction of the masticatory system. The obtained results were as follows : 1. The mean values for maximal opening and protrusion differed significantly between men and women, 55.9 mm and 49.7 mm, 9.3 mm and 7.4 mm respectively. 2. The means found for maximal lateral movement to the right and to the left were practically the same, 8.5 - 9 mm and did not differ with sex. 3. The lower limit of the normal range of horizontal movements may be regarded as 4 mm for men and 3 mm for women and maximal opening as 44 mm for men and 39 mm for women. 4.

  • The lung cancer in patients under 40 years old is rare and reported to be more rapidly fatal than in older persons. We reviewed the records of 18 cases who younger than 40 years with histologically proven lung cancer between 1959 and 1992 at department of Thoracic Surgery in National Medical Center. There were 12 male and 6 female patients. Two male and all female patients had never smoked. The 17 cases had respiratory symptoms for a mean duration of 3 months. The squamous carcinoma was found in 7 cases[38.9%], small cell carcinoma in 4 cases[22.2%], mixed cell carcinoma in 4 cases[22.2%], adenocarcinoma in 2 cases[11.1%] and bronchoalveolar cell carcinoma in 1 case. Among the 6 resected tumors, one case was stage I, two cases were stage II and three cases were stage IIIa. The operation was considered complete and curative in 6 patients and noncurative in 6 pations because of an exploratory thoracotomy. We conclude that lung cancer in young persons is virulent and that diagnosis is frequently delayed.
