Objective: This study examined the caregiver burden, depressive symptoms, and mental-related quality of life of 226 caregivers of stroke patients, who had been hospitalized in 7 general hospitals located in Cheongju and Daejeon Metropolitan city. Methods: Data were collected from August 5, 2014 to October 5, 2014 and a structured self-administered questionnaire was used. The results were analyzed using a t-test, ANOVA for different comparisons of the mental related quality of life in the sociodemographic characteristics, care-related characteristics, health-related behavioral characteristics, caregiver burden, and depressive symptoms. Hierarchical multiple regression was conducted to determine the explanatory power of the independent variables on the dependent variables, with the variables showing significant differences in univariate analysis as independent variables. Results: According to the results of hierarchical multiple regression analysis, the relevant factors that influenced the mental-related quality of life were the relationship with a patient, burden by 'care', burden by sacrifice of 'personal life', and depressive symptoms. Conclusion: To enhance health-related quality of life, not only is a systematic complement on such factors needed, but the development and implementation of an intervention program to the caregiver burden and depressive symptoms is also urgently required.

The budget is an essential tool for the systematic management of the organizational performance and for diagnosing the status of an organization. Effective budget execution is important to hospital management due to the nonprofit nature of hospitals. On the other hand, there are few studies regarding the budgetary slack of hospitals in Korea. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the university hospital budgeting system characteristics on the budgetary slack. For this purpose, the data from 118 staff of a university hospital located in Seoul were collected by self-administered surveys. Frequency analysis, correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis were carried out using Stata Ver. 14. The main results of this study were as follows. First, information asymmetry has a positive influence on the budgetary slack. Second, budget feedback and budget motivation have a negative effect on the budgetary slack. These findings suggest that the sharing of budget-related information among hospital staff is important for efficient hospital management. In addition, it is necessary to establish ways to enhance the feedback and motivation in budgetary activities for managing the budgetary slack systematically. The major strength of this study is that it draws attention to research concerning the budgetary slack of hospitals in the absence of research on the budgetary slack. The significance of this study was to provide an empirical basis for improving the efficiency of hospital management.

This study intends to examine general hospital workers' health promoting lifestyle practice and figure out related factors to it. To achieve that, it conducted a survey with an unsigned self-reported questionnaire to the subject of 580 workers at hospitals located in Daejeon. The degree of practice in the subjects' health promoting lifestyle, the average of the entire questions was 2.26 points and the average of sub-sections was as in the following: 2.62 for interpersonal relations, 2.58 for spiritual growth, 2.26 for nutrition, 2.16 for stress management, 2.00 for health responsibility and 1.89 for physical activity Thus, the section of interpersonal relations showed the highest practice rate, whereas the section of physical activity demonstrated the lowest one. According to the multivariate regression analysis by phase, main factors affecting their health promoting lifestyle practice were selected as stress, attendance in education on health promotion, subjective heath condition, and age. The above results imply that general hospital workers' health promoting lifestyle practice is not sufficient and various factors are involved in it. Accordingly, it is considered that in order to enhance general hospital workers' attention to health promoting lifestyle practice, it is necessary to develop health promoting strategies and programs.

This study analyzed the situation of urban agriculture development through theories, paradigms, and typology to determine the application frequency and development keywords about space forming. The results showed that urban space by distance determines "Dimension of space forming" through self-production, public-production, and nation-social operation. Second, the complex space by shape determine "Identity of space forming" through "Flat Shape" for using the widespread land, "Compact Shape" for overcoming the small and poor land, and "Fusion of Flat Compact Shape" for systematic use between Flat and Compact. Third, building and interior space according to location determine the "Utility of space forming" through land, roof, wall, veranda, interior, and infrastructure space. The concepts about space forming of urban agriculture have an organic correlation and will be developed sustainably by the evolved cases from now on. In addition, space forming of urban agriculture produces new creation space by various fusion processes and will be a development trend of new urban agriculture.

Recently the government has succeeded in shutting down the Illegal Copyrighted Websites by cracking down on the operators of the websites. But this only caused 'the Balloon Effect', similar websites were created and users shifted to the new websites. 'Follow the money' is drawing attention as a way to complement the effect of policies. It tracks the commercialization scheme and fund flows of the Illegal Copyrighted Websites and blocks the supply and publication of advertisements, which are the main source of revenue. This approach aims at self-closure of Illegal websites by blocking the revenue source. In this study, we have selected and analyzed overseas cases that adopted these measures. Many countries had different policies and campaigns, but three things are common: non-punishment measures, partnership based on voluntary participation, pursuing a variety of purposes other than protecting the copyright industry. In Korea, the reason public-private Partnerships was not properly established had been caused by the difference of views between them. Advertisers and agencies need to expand their awareness that illegal advertisements can have adverse effects such as brand image damage and enormous economic losses. Also campaigns and conferences related with the policy should be held to prevent copyright infringement through mutual understanding and cooperation.

In this study, we set the occupational satisfaction and communication ability of clinical dental hygienists as the main variables, and investigated the factors that affect communication within the organization to improve the work of dental hygienists. Self-reporting questionnaires were administered to 200 dental hygienists working in dental hospitals and dental clinics in Seoul and Gyeonggi Province from May 18, 2019 to June 12, 2019. We analyzed the data with Pearson correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis. The significance level was set at 0.05. Research results: Job satisfaction (r=0.193, p<0.05) and communication ability (r=0.404, p<.001) showed a significant positive correlation with intra-organizational communication, and individual communication ability (β=0.461, P<.001), which was found to have a significant effect on communication within this organization. Therefore, in order to improve the communication skills of dental hygienists, they should be proud of their work as professionals, enhance their job satisfaction, and be able to have a clear expression of their own intentions and effective dialogue. Efforts should be made to provide opportunities such as opening related lectures during internal education and maintenance education.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Recent studies have reported an association of the angiotensin II type 2 receptor (AT2R) 3123Cytosine/Adenine (3123C/A) polymorphism with essential hypertension and cardiovascular diseases. The purpose of the study was to investigate whether the AT2R 3123C/A polymorphism affects blood pressure for free-living hypertensive men during a 5-month intervention period. SUBJECTS/METHODS: The subjects were free-living hypertensive Japanese men aged 40 to 75 years who agreed to intervention in the period from 2004 to 2011. Detection of the AT2R 3123C/A polymorphism was determined by polymerase chain reaction. The dietary intervention was designed to decrease salt level and to increase potassium level through cooking instructions and self-monitoring of the diet. The exercise session consisted of activities such as stretching, resistance training, and walking. Blood pressure, urinary sodium and potassium excretion, dietary and lifestyle data, and non-fasting venous blood sample were collected at baseline and after the intervention period. RESULTS: Thirty nine subjects were eligible for participation and the follow-up rate was 97.4%. The C allele proportion was 57.9%. AT2R 3123C/A polymorphism was X-chromosome-linked, therefore we analyzed the C and A genotypes. At baseline, no significant differences were observed between the genotype groups. After the intervention, there were no significant differences in lifestyle habit between the groups. Nevertheless, the estimated salt excretion (g/day) was significantly decreased only in the C genotype (13.0-10.3, P = 0.031). No significant change was observed in systolic blood pressure (SBP) (mmHg) in the A genotype, but a significant decrease was observed in the C genotype (150.0-141.5, P = 0.024). CONCLUSTIONS: In the C genotype, it might be easy to improve SBP through lifestyle intervention in free-living hypertensive Japanese men, however generalization could not be achieved by the small sample size.
