Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop of the Health Promotion Program for the Auxiliary Police based on PRECEDE model. Methods: The data were collected from the Auxiliary Police officer in the D provincial Police Agency. The program was developed through analysis of literature review, analysis on the Auxiliary Police's demand through in-depth interview, and the content validation by an expert group. Results: The program consists group education sessions (7 times, 90 minutes each) for 5 weeks. The program also reflects the concept of quality of life, health promotion behavior, self-efficacy and health knowledge, social support, and availability of resources which are important factors for assessment through PRECEDE. Conclusion: The results may be crucial to develop strategy in order to decrease the disease prevalence as well as increase the participants' overall quality of life of Auxiliary Police. This is proposed to standardize the Health Promotion Program for the Auxiliary Police.

Bronchogenic cysts are generally presented as a well defined mass that have thin and smooth wall in the intrapulmonary or mediastinal area by simple chest radiographs. We present the case of a 20-year-old man with a ill-defined left upper lobe mass, found by chest radiographs. At the preoperative examinations, chest computed tomography showed ill-defined mass with Hounsfield Number 26, and nonspecific findings were shown by the bronchoscopy and percutaneous needle aspiration. The patient was undertaken the left upper lobectomy. The surgical specimen contained a ill-defined mass, measuring $2{\times}3$ cm. On the section of the mass, a cyst containing dark brown thick materials was noted. The cyst was unilocular, and the wall showed a trabeculation. Microscopically, the cystic mass was lined with ciliated pseudostratified columnar epitheliums and surrounded by smooth muscle and cartilage.

Aim: We aimed to examine the cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between sleep and work-related impaired cognitive and emotional functioning in police employees. Methods: This study included 410 participants (52% men) employed in a police district in Norway at baseline, of which 50% also participated in the study at 6 months later follow-up. The questionnaires included items measuring work schedule, sleep length, insomnia, as well as impaired cognitive and emotional functioning at work. Results: The results showed that insomnia was related to impaired work-related emotional functioning measured at baseline, and to impaired cognitive functioning measured at both baseline and follow-up. Sleep length and rotating shift work were not associated with future decline in cognitive or emotional functioning. Conclusion: Our study indicates that the relationship between insomnia and emotional functioning at work may be transient, whereas insomnia can be related to both immediate and future impaired cognitive functioning. Replication of the findings in larger samples is advised. The findings call for an emphasis on the prevention and treatment of sleep problems among police employees as a mean of maintaining and improving cognitive and emotional functioning at work, and thereby reducing the risk for impaired performance and negative health and safety outcomes.

This study was conducted with the aim of testing the relationship between authority-giving leadership recognized by maritime police officials with organizational citizenship behavior. There are various types of leadership. Marine police officials will be able to help solve more effective problems in practice by the authority granted due to the nature of their duties. Organizational citizenship behavior is informal, though. However, as a result, it is related to organizational development. Recently, as a study for organizational development, many studies on empowerment leadership and organizational citizenship behavior are being conducted. In this study, 168 marine police officials were surveyed. As a result of the study, the authority-granting leadership and organizational citizenship behavior of marine police officials are very important factors due to the dangers and unexpectedness of the duties of marine police officials. Policy suggestions were made for the development of the maritime police organization.

In 2003, the local police system was adopted, and the personnel and installation of local police agencies were subsequently changed. According to the "Police Law", local police station shall be established under the control of chief of police department, and the criteria for the installation of local police stations were to take into consideration of population, administrative districts, area, geographical characteristics, traffic and other conditions. The chief of local police has the authority to install district police station according to the "National Police Agency and its Organization". However, it is hard to say they were applied. Futhermore, it is inappropriate to apply the laws and regulations equally across the nation. Also, it has been criticized for its difficulties of patrolling, the weakened relationship with local residents, and poor quality of security services in rural areas. Therefore, this study suggests that the criteria for the installation of the police station should be made through a comprehensive analysis of the characteristics of the areas and security needs.

The acromioclavicular separation (AC separation) is a common injury, which is often accompanied by the rupture of the coracoclavicular ligament (CC ligament) in severe occasions. In rare forms of AC separation, the fracture of the coracoid process would occur rather than the rupture of the CC ligament. Only 31 cases of such injury have been reported in the English literature. We present 2 additional cases with literature review. The fracture of the coracoid process is not readily seen on anteroposterior shoulder radiograms. Severe AC separation without widening of CC distance on anteroposterior shoulder radiogram heralds the fracture of the coracoid process.

Background: TIAM2, a Rac guanine nucleotide exchange factor, is closely associated with cell adherence and migration. Here, we aimed to investigate the role of TIAM2 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells. Materials and Methods: A small interference RNA (siRNA) was introduced to silence the expression of TIAM2. Invasion and motility assays were then performed to assess the invasion and motility potential of NSCLC cells. GST-pull down assays were used to detect activation of Rac1. Results: TIAM2 was highly expressed in NSCLC cells. Knockdown of TIAM2 inhibited the invasion and motility, and suppressed activation of Rac1. Further experiments demonstrated that knockdown of TIAM2 could up-regulate the expression of E-cadherin, and down-regulate the expression of MMP-3, Twist and Snail. Conclusions: Our data suggest that TIAM2 can promote invasion and motility of NSCLC cells. Activation of Rac1 and regulation of some EMT/invasion-related genes may be involved in the underlying processes.

Objective : Police officers are exposed to job-related traumatic events and have a high prevalence of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). This study examined the relationship between PTSD symptoms and dimensions of temperament and character in police officers. Method : Thirty-six police officers participating in a psychological support program were enrolled. All subjects were asked to complete a demographic questionnaire, the Impact of Event Scale-Revised (IES-R), the Temperament and Character Inventory (TCI) and other self-reported symptoms scales. Results : Among all participants (age $40.8{\pm}10.2$, men 94.4%), the rate of 'post-traumatic stress symptoms group' was 47.2%. After controlling for confounding factors, lower self-directedness scores were significantly associated with higher PTSD symptoms (${\beta}=0.6$, p=0.03) in multiple regression analysis. Conclusion : Character traits, especially self-directedness, were associated with the severity of PTSD symptoms severity. These findings may provide useful information regarding personality factors related to PTSD in police officers.

Purpose: We present our experience about the clinical aspect and treatment modalities of ostechondritis dissecans of the talus. Material and Method: This study included 35 patients, 38 cases diagnosed as ostechondritis dissecans of the talus that were proved by clinical and radiologic finding. The methods of treatment were conservative (2 cases), multiple drilling (1 case), excision (1 case), excision, curettage & multiple drilling (23 cases), curettage & bone peg fixation (2 cases), curettage & bone graft (2 cases), and autogenous osteochondral transfer(Mosaicplasty) (7 cases). Results: Of the 38 cases, 30 cases were associated with a history of trauma (17 cases of medial lesion, 13 cases of lateral lesion), and 9 cases of which had major trauma history and 21 cases, minor repetitive trauma history. According to O'Farrel grading system, 21 cases (55%) had good results, 11 cases (29%) had fair results, and 6 cases (16%) had poor results. Of the medial lesion 16 cases had good results, 6 cases, fair results, and 2 cases, poor results. Of the lateral lesion 5 cases had good results, 5 cases, fair results, and 4 cases, poor results. Conclusion: There were fair or good results in 84% of patients with surgical treatment. Curettage and multiple drilling reveals a good result in medial lesion in grade I, II, III and lateral lesion in grade I, II. Autogenous osteochondral transfer(Mosaicplasty) is considered for the cases in grade III, IV(medial and lateral), lesion exceeds 1Cm of size and poor result with another treatment modality.
