  • 이 연구는 일개 군 지역 농촌주민을 대상으로 한 건강증진사업 접근전략 개발을 위하여 흡연, 음주 및 운동에 대한 행태를 단계별로 그 분포를 기술함으로써 향후 건강증진사업의 기획과 평가에 적용 및 효율적이고 효과적인 건강증진사업의 접근전략 개발을 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 시도되었다. 본 조사의 대상자는 옥천군의 30세 이상 주민 중 남성 384명(43.1%), 여성 508명(56.9%)이었다. 조사는 1999년 8월중 6일간 다단계 추출법으로 선정된 세대별로 구조화된 면담지를 이용한 직접 방문조사를 통하여 이루어졌다. 사용된 설문지는 사회인구학적 조사변수로는 성, 연령, 학력, 직업, 총수입, 결혼상태 등을 포함하였으며, 흡연과 음주 그리고 운동은 행동변화 6단계로 측정하였다. 흡연경력자의 흡연의 행동수정 변화 6단계의 분포는 남자인 경우, 계획전 단계에 50.6%, 계획 단계에 32.5%인데 반해 여자의 경우 계획전 단계 60.6%, 계획 단계 28.8%로 계획전 단계와 계획단계에 집중된 분포 양상이었다. 음주 경력자에서는 남자인 경우 계획전 단계가 72.8%, 계획단계 19.3%였으며, 여자의 경우 계획전 단계 80.3%, 계획단계 15.5%로 계획전 단계의 분포가 집중되어 있었다. 운동의 경우에도 남자가 계획전 단계가 80.6%, 유지단계 1.8%, 완료단계가 10.2%였으며, 여자의 경우 계획전 단계 87.6%, 유지단계 1.2%, 완료단계 5.3%로 계획전 단계에서는 여성이 더 높았으나 준비단계 이상의 긍정적인 단계에서는 남자가 더 많아 성별로 유의한 차이를 보였다. 따라서 성인들에서의 건강증진의 접근전략에서 위험요인별로 각기 다른 단계별 전략이 개발되어야 함을 시사하였다. 또한 특히 흡연, 음주, 운동의 건강증진 전략은 계획전 단계가 일차적으로 목표되어야 한다. 흡연과 음주 그리고 운동의 행동수정 변화 단계간에 유의한 일치도는 없었으나 상관 분석에서는 흡연과 음주, 음주와 운동이 유의한 상관을 다변수 분석에서 운동과 음주, 운동과 흡연간에 유의한 관련성을 보였다. 따라서 행동수정의 단계적 변화론 모형의 건강행태 측정에서 그 타당도가 재확인 되어야하며, 이러한 행동수정의 단계별 변화론의 적용결과는 추후 중재연구의 전향적 추적조사를 통하여 검정되어 건강행위로의 가능한 출입구(gateway)가 밝혀져야 할 것이다.

  • One of the main problems associated with MANETs is that mobility and the associated route discovery and maintenance procedures of reactive routing protocols cause severe interruptions on real-time video streams. Some of these interruptions are too large to be concealed using any sort of video technology, resulting in communications breaks unpleasant for the final end user. We present a solution for enhanced video transmission that increases route stability by using an improved route discovery process based on the DSR routing protocol, along with traffic splitting algorithms and a preventive route discovery mechanism. We also present some video adaptative mechanisms that improve the overall performance of multipath routing in terms of video data replication and video packet splitting strategies. Combining our proposals, we achieve up to 97% less interruptions on communication with high mobility and over 1.2 dB of improvements in terms of video distortion.

  • The association of menarche and nutritional status was studied in 116 female students of the 6 th grade in a rural primary school. Participants were divided into two groups based on menarcheal status. The anthropometric data showed that mean heights and weights of menarcheal group on two occasions were significantly higher than those of the other group (p<0.01). Neither hemoglobin levels nor hematocrit values for determination of anemia were not associated with menarche. Twenty four hour dietary recall revealed that young females with menarche consumed less energy and Ca compared to the other group. Ca intake was 34.8% of RDA in menarcheal group. It might be suggested that effective intervention strategies need to be developed and include education programs for nutritional needs and food sources of Ca, targeting rural residents.

  • The chicken egg provides a perfectly packaged, portion controlled, highly nutritious food containing vital nutrients essential for maintaining human health. However, concern by health professionals over the possible association of diets high in fat and cholesterol to chronic diseases has led to a decrease in egg consumption. Several different strategies have been adopted by the poultry food industry to enhance the nutritional value of eggs. The major emphasis has been focused on the modification of polyunsaturated fatty acid composition and fat soluble vitamins. This review briefly describes the composition, lipid nutrient content and the positive health effects of egg lipid nutrients.

  • Objective: The purpose were understanding the epidemiological characteristics of work related injuries of the farmer and establishing injury prevention and control activity. Background: Agriculture is one of the most hazardous industry and job in Korea. Method: We reviewed previous reports regarding the agricultural injury, injury prevention and control. Results: In the agricultural total injury, there were 45,342 hospitalized injury to farmers, injury rate was 35.8/1,000 farmers/years. Of these injuries, 52.6 percent were classed as work related injury. The farm-related injury rate was 17.5/1,000 farmers/years by analysis of Safety Aid System of Farm Workers. There were 2.4 times as incidence rate for farmers compared to non-farmers. Conclusion: Several strategies are available for injury prevention and control. They are as follows; social concern, survey of farm related injury, injury prevention, injury surveillance system and injury compensation.

  • Purpose: The Purpose of this study was to examine an obesity control program using dietary consult and physical exercise among middle-aged obese women in a health center. Method: This study used a pretest-posttest design. The subjects were 63 middle-aged women with over BMI $25(kg/m^2)$ or %BF 28 who participated in the obesity control program for 12 weeks. Results: After the program for 12 weeks, BMI(p= .02) and TC(p= .00) decreased significantly compared with those before the program. Conclusion: Obesity control programs in health centers can decrease the degree of obesity in middle-aged obese women. Therefore health centers should develop strategies for their members' continuous participation in such an obesity control program.

  • Natural organic matter (NOM) is a primary component of fouling in low-pressure membrane filtration, either solely, or in concert with colloidal particles. Various preventive measures to interfere with NOM fouling have been developed and extensively tested, such as coagulation, oxidation, ion exchange, carbon adsorption, and mineral oxide adsorption. Therefore, this article aims to conduct a literature review covering the topics of low-pressure membrane processes, NOM characteristics and fouling behaviors, and diverse fouling control strategies. In-depth explanations and discussion are made regarding why some treatment options are able to remove NOM from source water, but do not reduce fouling. This review provides insight for hybridized membrane processes with respect to NOM removal and fouling mitigation in water treatment.

  • Objectives: This article intends to explore the major documents about inter-sectoral collaboration for physical activity promotion based on new paradigm. Methods: In addition to the documents after 1990s collected through several physical activity related projects of author, additional snowballing exploration has been done. Results: Globally extensive participation of stake-holders and partnership developed were strategically recommended and implementation strategy and good example were provided. In Europe individual, micro-environmental and macro-environmental specific role of major sectors were provided. Nationally series of Australian documents officialized inter-sectoral linkages from early times and Slovenian program showed examples of inter-sectoral evaluation and health indicators. U.S. national physical activity plan showed specific example of 6 guiding principles and 5 overarching strategies among 8 sectors for good inter-sectoral collaboration. In city level, healthy city approach activated. Conclusions: Various specific good examples of intersectoral physical activity collaboration could searched globally, regionally and nationally for application in Korea.

  • Lung function reportedly declines with age and that this decline is accelerated during disease progression. However, a recent study showed that the decline might peak in the mild and moderate stage. The prognosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) can be improved if the disease is diagnosed in its early stages, prior to the peak of decline in lung function. This article reviews recent studies on early COPD and the possibility of applying the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommendation 2008 and 2015 for early detection of COPD in Korea.
