  • 본 연구는 유사한 소득수준을 가진 빈곤층이라고 하더라도 그들이 거주하고 있는 지역사회의 사회경제적 여건에 따라 생활실태에서 차이가 나타나는지를 탐색한 연구이다. 특히 빈곤한 지역에 거주하는 빈곤층에 초점을 두어, 중첩된 빈곤상태에 처하였을 때 이들의 이웃관계와 정신건강수준이 어떠한 결과를 보이는지를 확인하였다. 이를 위하여 2012년도 한국종합사회조사(94개 시 군 구, N=1,396) 자료를 활용하였고, 지역빈곤과 개인빈곤 간의 상호작용효과를 분석하는 데에 중점을 두었다. 분석 결과, 빈곤지역에 거주하는 빈곤층이 부유지역의 빈곤층보다 이웃 간의 유대에 있어 더욱 높은 수준의 이웃관계를 보고하였다. 나아가 중첩된 빈곤상태는 이들의 심리적 안녕감을 또한 높이는 기제로서, 빈곤한 지역사회가 빈곤층의 취약한 정신건강을 완충하는 지지기반이 됨을 보여주었다. 이를 통해 빈곤지역에서 빈곤한 주민들이 지니는 관계성의 의미를 논의하였으며, 그에 따른 실천적 함의를 제시하였다.

  • Deficiency in access to housing is a major manifestation of poverty. In the city of Bangalore, the poor and the marginalized constitute nearly 30 percent of the 8.47 million population (2011 Census) and are living in the nearly 640 slums in addition to squatter settlements and pavements. The city sprawls over an area of 741 sq. kms (2007 estimates) and the poor have very little access to personal living space. According to the Integrated Housing and Slum Development Program guidelines, each household with four average members should have 25 sq. meters of living space. In the case of poor of Bangalore, the attainment of even this minimum is a far cry. In recognition of this acuteness with regard to the problem of housing, the government has introduced schemes like the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission and the Rajiv Awas Yojana. And these schemes have witnessed only a limited success. Whenever the problem of housing for the urban poor is considered, the state and location of slums get into focus. The people living in slums are a crucial and inevitable support to the city economy. Relocation of slum people is fraught with loss of productivity and strain on the transport system and on the incomes of the poor. Their needs like housing, schooling, health centers, creches, hospices etc. have to be provided for. Financial support to the poor with regard to their housing needs will have to be imaginatively provided by banks and related institutions.

  • In this study, 160 tea tree (Camellia sinensis L.) lines were classified by caffeine content using colorimetric methods. Among them, caffeine-rich lines (HR-78, HR-137, HR-82 and HR-123) and poor lines (HP-85, HP-88, HP-19, and HP-131) were selected. To know the difference in morphological and genetic characters between caffeine-rich and poor lines, we used leaf/shoot growth and RAPD methods. Cluster pattern of morphological characters (leaf width, leaf length, leaf area and shoot length) showed that shoot length was longer in caffein-rich lines than in -poor lines. In genetic analysis, amplified DNA bands having various sizes were detected in RAPD analysis where 30 random primers were used. However, the discriminated primer set that distinguish caffein-rich tree line from -poor lines was not found. These results can be used as the basic data to determine the morphological and genetic differences among caffein-rich and -poor lines.

  • The proportion of people living in poverty in Soc Trang is comparatively large. 27,154 households in this province are considered to be poor, which represents 8.4 percent of all households. The gap between rural and urban areas, between farmers and other social classes in this province, tends to increase, and the living standard of people in the countryside remains difficult. This paper aims to investigate the determinant factors of poor households' income in rural areas of Soc Trang province, Vietnam. Data from 120 poor households in Vinh Chau district and Ke Sach district of Soc Trang province collected in the year 2019 is employed to test the proposed hypotheses in this study. By applying the descriptive statistical method and ordinary least squares (OLS) regression, the results show that the factors of production land, number of income generation activities, access to credit, means of transportation, and means of production positively affect the income per capita of poor household in the study area, whereas household size has a negative impact on the household income per capita. Considering the empirical findings, several solutions and recommendations are proposed to improve the income of poor households in Soc Trang province.

  • Abusive head trauma (AHT) in infants, especially acute subdural hematoma, has an extremely poor outcome. The most decisive and important finding is the appearance of a widespread low-density area on head computed tomography. This phenomenon was traditionally thought to be caused by cerebral ischemia. However, many other pathophysiological abnormalities have been found to be intricately involved. Recent studies have found that status epilepticus and hyperperfusion injures are the major causes. Another serious problem associated with AHT is cardiopulmonary arrest (CPA). Many infants are reported to visit to the hospital with CPA, and its pathophysiology has not been fully elucidated. This paper examines the background of these pathological conditions and associated factors and elucidate the pathophysiological mechanisms resulting in poor outcomes in AHT. In addition to the intensity of assault on the head, the peculiar pathophysiological characteristics in infants, as well as the social background specific to child abuse, are found to be associated with poor outcome.

  • 한반도해송숲의 지형환경, 기상조건, 토양 이화학적 성질과 곰솔의 생육상태를 조사해, 이곳 곰솔의 수세약화 원인을 찾아내고자 했다. 곰솔의 수세가 불량하거나 고사한 지역(수세불량지)과 대조구로서 곰솔의 생육상황이 양호한 지역(수세양호지)으로 나눠 조사했다. 그 결과, 수세불량지의 입목밀도는 수세양호지보다 유의적으로 높았지만, 수관폭은 반대로 수세양호지에서 더 넓었다. 고사목 개체수와 입목밀도는 서로 부(-)의 상관관계를 보였고, 또 입목밀도와 흉고직경·수고·수관고(crown height)·수관폭 사이에서는 부(-)의 상관관계를 보였다. 즉, 입목밀도가 높으면 개체의 수관이 겹쳐 하부 가지가 죽어 수관고와 수관폭이 작아졌다. 이에 엽량 감소에 따른 광합성량이 줄어들어 수고와 직경의 생장량이 적어졌다고 본다. 이로 인해 수세가 약해지면서 해안사구라서 수분·양분의 부족과 강한 조풍 등의 환경압이 가중되어 해안가 근처의 곰솔이 대규모로 죽은 것으로 판단된다. 한반도해송숲의 고사목 발생과 수세약화 원인은 복합적이지만, 곰솔 생장에 따른 적정한 입목밀도 관리 부족이라는 내부요인을 제1 요인으로 꼽을 수 있다. 또 곰솔 생육에 불리한 토양조건과 조풍, 강풍 등의 환경압을 제2 요인이라고 볼 수 있다.

  • Inadequate dietary intakes and poor health behaviors are of concern among rural residents in Korea. This study is conducted to compare dietary intakes, dietary diversity score (DDS), mean nutrient adequacy ratio (MAR) and health related behaviors by rural, factory and urban areas in Asan. A total of 930 adults (351 men and 579 women) were interviewed to assess social economic status (SES), health related behaviors and food intakes by a 24-hour recall method. Mean age was 61.5 years with men being older (64.8 years) than women (59.3 years, p<0.001). Men in the factory area were older than rural or urban men while urban women were the youngest. Education and income of urban residents were higher than other area residents. There were more current drinkers in urban area while smoking status was not different by regions. Physical activity was significantly higher in rural or factory areas, whilst urban residents exercised more often (p<0.05). Rural or factory area residents considered themselves less healthy than others while perceived stress was lower than urban residents. Energy intakes were higher in urban residents or in men, however, after SES was controlled, energy intake did not show any differences. Energy-adjusted nutrient intakes were significantly higher in the urban area (p<0.05) for most nutrients except for carbohydrate, niacin, folic acid, vitamin $B_6$, iron and fiber. Sodium intake was higher in factory area than in other areas after SES was controlled. DDS of rural men and MAR of both men and women in the rural area were significantly lower when SES was controlled. In conclusion, dietary intakes, diversity, adequacy and perceived health were poor in the rural area, although other health behaviors such as drinking and perceived stress were better than in the urban area. In order to improve perceived health of rural residents, good nutrition and exercise education programs are recommended.
