Panax ginseng is one of the most universally used herbal medicines in Asian and Western countries. Most of the biological activities of ginseng are derived from its main constituents, ginsenosides. Interestingly, a number of studies have reported that ginsenosides and their metabolites/derivatives-including ginsenoside (G)-Rb1, compound K, G-Rb2, G-Rd, G-Re, G-Rg1, G-Rg3, G-Rg5, G-Rh1, G-Rh2, and G-Rp1-exert anti-inflammatory activities in inflammatory responses by suppressing the production of proinflammatory cytokines and regulating the activities of inflammatory signaling pathways, such as nuclear factor-${\kappa}B$ and activator protein-1. This review discusses recent studies regarding molecular mechanisms by which ginsenosides play critical roles in inflammatory responses and diseases, and provides evidence showing their potential to prevent and treat inflammatory diseases.

Lifetime Health Maintenance Program(LHMP) or Koreans is the Korean guide to clinical preventive services which include screening for chronic diseases, counseling and immunization. The Korean Task Force on the LHMP vigorously reviews evidence for interventions to prevent over 50 different illnesses and conditions which are important in Korea. The problems addressed in this program are common ones seen every day by primary care physicians in Korea: cardiovascular, infectious diseases, gastrointestinal and endocrine diseases, cancers, alcohol and smoking, and many others. Primary care clinicians have a key role in screening for many of these problems and imunizing against others Of equal importance, however, is the clinician's role in counseling patients to change unhealthful behaviors related to diet, smoking, exercise, injuries, and sexually transmitted diseases The recommendations are grouped by age, sex, and other risk factors.

The sense of vision is the primary means by which we gather information from our surroundings, and vision loss, therefore, severely compromises the life of the affected individuals, their families, and society. Loss of vision becomes more frequent with age, and diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, cataracts, and glaucoma are the major causes of vision impairment. To find active pharmacological compounds that might prevent or ameliorate the vision-threatening eye diseases, numerous studies have been performed, and some botanical compounds, including those extracted from ginseng, have been shown to possess beneficial effects in the treatment or prevention of common ocular diseases. In this review, we summarize the recent reports investigating the therapeutic effects of ginseng and ginsenosides on diverse ocular diseases and discuss their therapeutic potential.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to examine the association between two major oral diseases and cardiovascular diseases. Methods: Data from the 6th Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2013-2015) were used. The study included 12,754 adults, aged ${\geq}19years$, who participated in the questionnaire survey of health related to hypertension, stroke, myocardial infarction, and angina pectoris as well as completed blood tests, anthropometry, and oral examination. Statistical analyses included complex sample frequency, complex sample general linear, complex sample cross-tabulation, and complex sample logistic regression analyses. Results: With respect to the number of Decayed-Missing-Filled-Teeth(DMFT ), patients with hypertension (DMFT 8.05), stroke (DMFT 8.66), and angina pectoris (DMFT 8.24) showed a DMFT score of >2, compared with those who did not have these diseases (p<0.05). Patients with hypertension, stroke, myocardial infarction, and angina pectoris presented an approximately 2.7, 3.5, 4, and 3 times higher incidence of periodontal diseases, respectively, than those who did not (p<0.05). Based on the analysis of the relationship between the number of DMFT and cardiovascular diseases, patients with cardiovascular diseases had a risk of 1.033 higher DMFT than those who did not (p<0.05). As per the analysis of the relationship between periodontal diseases and cardiovascular diseases, patients with cardiovascular diseases had a 2.969 higher risk of periodontaldiseasesthanthosewithout them (p<0.05). Conclusions: Two major oral diseases were found to be associated with cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, to prevent these major oral diseases in patients with cardiovascular diseases, oral hygiene management must be actively performed.

과거 양식장에서 어류 질병은 세균성이었던 반면 최근은 바이러스성 및 혼합된 형태가 되면서 어류 질병의 빈도가 높아졌다. 양식장이라는 밀폐된 공간에서 바이러성 질병은 확산속도가 높으므로 집단 폐사로 이어질 확률이 매우 높다. 집단 폐사를 방지하기 위해서는 어류 질병의 빠른 식별이 중요하다. 그러나 어류의 질병 진단은 고도의 전문지식이 필요하고 매번 어류의 상태를 눈으로 확인하기 어렵다. 질병의 확산을 막기 위해서는 병이든 어류의 자동식별 시스템이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 딥러닝 기반의 넙치의 질병 식별 시스템의 성능을 높이기 위해서 기존 전처리 방법을 비교 실험한다. 대상 질병은 넙치에서 가장 빈번히 발생하는 3가지 질병 스쿠티카병, 비브리오증, 림포시스티스를 선정하였고 이미지 전처리 방법으로 RGB, HLS, HSV, LAB, LUV, XYZ, YCRCV를 사용하였다. 실험결과 일반적인 RGB를 사용하는 것보다 HLS가 가장 좋은 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 간단한 방법으로 질병의 인식률을 향상해 어류 질병 식별 시스템을 고도화 할 수 있을 것으로 예상한다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore prevalence and causal factors of musculoskeletal diseases on nurses. Methods: This study was an integrated review. Documentations were searched through electric databases using SAGE journals, EBSCOhost, Pubmed, RISS, NDSL and KCI. Terminology for this review was "Nurse" and "Musculoskeletal" and language versions were Korean or English. Number of final articles was 70 (Korean articles were 11 and english versions were 59). Results: Studies related to musculoskeletal diseases on nurses started in Sweden and USA from 1995. Subjects of studies were general hospital nurses in 50 out of 70 studies. Lower back in Korea and waist in other countries were highest areas of muculoskeletal disease's prevalence. Revisable factors of musculoskeletal diseases on nurses included physical, psychosocial and environmental factors that were more than unrevised factors. Conclusion: This study suggests to develop programs for preventing musculoskeletal disease of lower back or waist in general hospitals because of high frequency. Interventions to prevent musculoskeletal diseases need to consider prevalence and quality indicators on nurses.

Objectives : The purpose of the study is to investigate the recognition between laypersons and dental hygienists on expansion of health insurance of scaling. Methods : A self-reported questionnaires was filled out by 100 laypersons and 100 dental hygienists from October 7, 2013. Data were analyzed by SPSS version 21.0 program. Results : All the dental hygienists recognized the introduction of the health insurance of scaling and 71.0% of the laypersons agreed. The introduction of health insurance of scaling was responsible for the interest toward scaling in 80 dental hygienists(80.0%) and 66 laypersons(66.0%). 94% of dental hygienists answered that health insurance of scaling would prevent periodontal diseases. The expansion of health insurance of scaling revealed many periodontal diseases and 52% of laypersons answered that prevention of periodontal diseases would deprive the dental hygienists of their jobs. Conclusions : The expansion of health insurance of scaling can prevent the periodontal diseases and enhance the oral health services. So the government must try to expand the health insurance of scaling.

Swine respiratory diseases have induced severe economic lasses in swine industry worldwide. Therefore, several methods have been made and applied to prevent and control the diseases. However, these methods still have a problem and also induce side effects. Recently, the use of egg yolk antibody was introduced to control and prevent the diseases as one of new trials. As a study of using egg yolk antibody, antibody titers against several different antigens of major pathogens in swine respiratory diseases were compared in egg yolk and serum of hens immunized with those antigens. The titers were measured by ELISA using the antigens as coating antigens. The relationship in antibody titers between egg yolk and serum were identified by analysis of variance for linear regression. Almost of antigens used in this study showed the high relationship in antibody titers between egg yolk and serum (r = 0.87 ~ 0.93) even though the relationship in antibody titers against P. multocida A:3 IROMP was slightly low (r = 0.74)(P<0.01). These results indicated that antibody titer in egg yolk could be useful to predict the titer in serum of chicken.
