  • According as the automation of clerical work(OA ; Office Automation) develops, the use of VDT(Visual or Video Display Terminal) is increasing suddenly. But, in proportion to the spread of office automation(OA tendency), the self-conciousness syptom attendant upon the work is appearing also (Kim, Jung Tae, Lee, Young Ook, 1990). The apparatuses of office enable the clerical workers to be convenient and perform mass businesses. But, they are increasing the opportunity to be exposed to VDT syndrom, techno stress, computer terminal disease, pain by muscle strain(RSI), bradycausia of noise nature, and electromagnetic waves, etc. which are referred to as the new type of occupational diseases to the workers. It is the real situation that the workers to use VDT is complaining of the physical inconvenience sense in the recent newspaper and literature, it is the point of time that the sydrome to come from VDT use and computer terminal disease, etc. must be classified into the occupational disease(Lee, Kwang Young 1990, Lee, Kyoo Hak 1990, Lee, Won Ho 1991, Lee, Si Young 1991, Lee, Joon 1991, Choi, Young Tae 1991, Heo, Seung Ho 1989). In addition, it is the real situation that the scientifitic study result about the scope that electromagnetic waves has influence on the human body has not been suggested yet, and criticism on the stable exposure permission standard about electromagnetic waves to be emitted from VDT and on the problem in the health about electromagnetic waves is continuing. (IEEE Spectrum, 1990). In addition according to the experience of nursery business of industry field, it is the real situation that the patients who consult complaining of physical and mental inconvenience sence, among the users of apparatus of office automation, are reaching 10% of the patients coming to doctor's room. Therefore, it is necessary to confirm the self-consciousness symptom that the clerical workers complain of multilaterally with the actual state examination about the use of the apparatuses of offices automaton.

    • Objectives This research was proposed to present Clinical Practice Guideline (CPG) for Prevention of Sasangin disease pattern of Sasang Constitutional Medicine (SCM) and diseases closely related with Sasang constitution. Each CPG was developed by the national-wide experts committee consisting of SCM professors. Methods At first, we searched the literatures related to SCM such as "Dongeuisusebowon", Textbook of SCM and Clinical Guidebook of SCM. Also we searched the articles related to the studies about risk factors for Sasangin disease pattern of both at home and abroad. Finally, we selected leading risk factors of Sasangin disease pattern and developed CPG for prevention of Sasangin disease pattern of SCM. And then, we searched the literatures related SCM such as "Dongeuisusebowon" and the articles on the correlation between disease and Sasang constitution using case-control studies, observational studies or cross sectional studies of both at home and abroad. Next, we selected diseases closely related with Sasang constitution on the basis of articles including prevalence rate and odds ratio between disease and Sasang constitution and finally developed CPG for these diseases. Results and Conclusions We categorized risk factors of Sasang disease pattern into 2 types: non-modifiable and potentially modifiable. 3 items (age, sex and genetic factors) were classified as non-modifiable risk factors of Sasang disease pattern. 6 items (original symptom, stress, diet and nutrition, physical activity, alcohol and drug misuse) were classified as less well-documented or potentially modifiable risk factors of Sasangin disease pattern. We found out Sasang constitution is more likely to develop some diseases. It was proven that Sasang constitution increase the risk of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, stroke, nonalcoholic fatty liver and obstructive sleep apnea. And there is high probability of Sasang constitution being potential risk factor for obesity, hyperlipidemia, allergy and cancer. Also, we found out Taeeumin is independent risk factor for hypertension, diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, stroke, nonalcoholic fatty liver and obstructive sleep apnea. Therefore we recommend that Taeeumin need to prevent these disease by regular checkups and aggressive management.

    • 울산지역에 거주하는 20대 이상 성인 남녀 412명을 대상으로 건강관련요인, 식습관, 스트레스 점수, 스트레스원인 및 증상 등을 알아보고, 스트레스와 식습관에 영향을 미치는 요인을 살펴봄으로써 건강한 식생활에 도움이 되고자 본 연구를 실시하였으며, 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 조사대상자는 남자 188명, 여자 224명으로 구성되었으며, 대학교 재학생이 24.5%, 전업주부 18.9%, 사무직 18.0%, 서비스 판매직 17.0%, 전문직 8.3%의 순으로 나타났으며, 월평균가계수입은 200$\sim$299만원이 전체의 31.1%로 가장 많았다. 82.0%가 핵가족이었으며, 종교가 없는 조사대상자가 전체의 45.1%, 불교 42.5%로 나타났다. 비만도를 살펴보면 정상 54.4%, 저체중 9.7%, 과체중 20.1%, 비만 15.8%로 과체중과 비만군이 비교적 많이 나타났으며, 남자의 경우 과체중과 비만군이 많았으며, 여자의 17.0%가 저체중인 것으로 나타나 성별에 따른 차이를 보였다 (p < 0.001). 전체의 57.0%가 꾸준히 운동을 하고 있었으며 (남자: 61.7%, 여자: 53.1%), 주로 걷기 (43.4%), 헬스 (22.6%), 등산 (11.5%), 수영 (8.9%)의 순이었으며, 남 녀 간에 유의적인 차이를 보였다 (p < 0.001). 하루 평균 1/2$\sim$1시간 정도 운동을 하고 있었으며, 남자가 여자보다 더 많은 시간을 운동에 할애하였다 (p < 0.001). 평균 수면시간은 7시간 미만이 68.2%로 가장 많았으며, 7$\sim$8시간은 29.9%로 나타났다. 건강관심정도는 보통이다 48.5%였으며, 자신이 건강하다는 조사대상자는 34.7%, 보통이다 53.9%로 나타났으며, 전체의 21.6%가 현재 질병이 있다고 응답하였다. 매일 규칙적인 식사를 하는 조사대상자는 55.1%였으며, 여자보다 남자가 더 규칙적이었지만 외식빈도는 남자가 더 높았다. 식생활 중 문제점으로는 폭식이나 과식이 30.1%로 가장 많았으며, 불규칙한 식사시간, 맵고 짠 자극적인 음식 선호의 순으로 나타났다. 음주와 흡연정도에서 남 녀간의 유의적인 차이가 나타났으며 남자의 48.9%, 여자의 5.8%가 흡연을 하고 있었으며 (p < 0.001), 남자의 6.9%, 여자의 34.4%가 전혀 술을 마시지 않는다고 응답하였다 (p < 0.001). 조사대상자들의 스트레스 원인으로는 개인적 요인, 사회적 요인, 가족관계, 신체적요인, 업무나 학업 순이었으며, 스트레스를 받았을 때 주로 신경예민 걱정 근심 불안, 두통, 목이나 어깨 등의 통증, 소화불량, 우울, 불면 등을 호소하였고, 이를 해소하기 위해서 휴식, 음주 흡연, 야외 활동 (여행, 운동), 실내활동 (PC 게임, 영화나 TV감상, 노래부르기) 등의 순으로 나타났다. 스트레스를 받았을 때는 맵고 뜨거운 음식, 술이나 커피 등의 음료, 단음식 등을 선호하였으며, 남 녀 간에 다소 차이를 보였다. 전체의 55.8%가 조금 스트레스를 느낀다고 응답하였으며, 스트레스 점수는 높을수록 스트레스를 많이 받고 있다는 것으로 최고 100점 중 전체 평균 58.3점으로 조사되었다. 각 영역별 점수를 살펴보면 음주와 흡연이 12.8 $\pm$ 4.8점으로 가장 낮게 나타났으며, 정서적 활동 14.0 $\pm$ 2.6점, 식생활 15.2 $\pm$ 3.3점, 육체적 활동 16.4 $\pm$ 4.4점의 순으로 나타났다. 평균 식습관점수는 41.1 $\pm$ 7.1점이었으며, 스트레스 점수 '상'인 그룹 36.8 $\pm$ 6.3점, '중' 40.5 $\pm$ 6.0점, '하' 47.3 $\pm$ 6.4점으로 나타나 스트레스가 높을수록 식습관 점수가 낮은 것으로 유의적인 차이를 보였다 (p < 0.001). 식습관점수 '상'인 그룹의 평균 스트레스 점수는 46.7 $\pm$ 11.8점 '중' 55.0 $\pm$ 9.8점, '하' 63.5 $\pm$ 8.3점으로 식습관 점수가 좋은 '상' 그룹에서 가장 낮은 스트레스 점수를 보였다 (p < 0.001). 스트레스를 받았을 때 식사량 (p < 0.01)이 증가한다는 응답은 전체의 32.0%, 음주량 (p < 0.001)의 증가 44.9%, 흡연량 (p < 0.001)의 증가 22.8%, 신체활동량 (p < 0.001)의 증가 22.8%로 나타났지만, 스트레스 점수가 낮은 '하' 그룹에서는 식사량 (58.1%), 음주량 (45.7%), 흡연량 (90.7%), 신체활동량 (53.5%)이 동일하다는 응답이 가장 많았으며, 식사량이 감소한다는 응답이 23.3%로 나타났다. 연령이 높은 군에서 식습관점수가 유의적으로 높았으며(p < 0.001), 스트레스 점수는 30대, 40대, 20대, 50대의 순으로 증가하여 연령대별로 유의적인 차이를 보여주었다(p < 0.001). 학생, 자영업, 판매영업직에서 낮은 식습관 점수와 높은 스트레스 점수를 보여주었으며 (p < 0.001), 독신가정이고 운동을 하지 않거나 (p < 0.001), 수면시간 (p < 0.05)이 적을수록 스트레스 점수는 높아지고, 식습관 점수는 낮았다. 이상의 연구결과를 볼 때 스트레스를 많이 받을수록 불규칙적이며 자극적인 식사를 선호하고 음주와 흡연을 하는 것으로 나타나 건강에 나쁜 영향을 미칠 것으로 우려된다. 또한 이러한 생활이 반복될 경우 비만을 유발할 수 있으므로 외부의 스트레스로부터 건강을 유지하기 위해 개인의 규칙적인 생활습관과 적절한 영양섭취가 필요하며, 이를 해소하기 위한 운동이나 사회활동 프로그램 등이 필요하다고 하겠다. 따라서 스트레스를 관리하고 비만 등의 질병을 예방하기 위한 건강관리 및 생활습관을 가지기 위한 지속적인 영양교육이 실시되어야 할 것으로 생각된다.
