Methods : On-line survey for KMDs who were registered in the Association of Korean Medicine was performed. The survey questionnaires included definitions and categories of Mibyeong, clinical use of Mibyeong, and the need for developing Mibyeong care packages, etc. Results : Of 18,344 KMDs who were received survey e-mail, 884 KMDs replied. As for the awareness of the Mibyeong, over 80% of the KMDs agreed the definitions based on patients' subjective symptoms and Korean Medicine theories. 36.1% of respondents used the term Mibyeong in the medical record, and 38.6% used when they explained the patients' condition to the patients. A majority of respondents agreed with the need for a developing Mibyeong care package. Developing the standard methods for Mibyeong assessment was the primary requisite on Mibyeong research. Conclusions : Currently the level of recognition and use of Mibyeong among Korean Medicine doctors was relatively low. To promote the use of Mibyeong in the clinical field, the standard methods for Mibyeong assessment and Mibyeong care package need to be developed.

In this paper, we investigated electric safety manager's PL recognition and accident occurrence of electric power facilities in electric installation for private use. The target of questionnaire survey is 450 electric installations for private use, 154 responded the questionnaire among these and it occupied 35.8[%]. The questionnaire survey says that 58[%] of electric safety manager knew well about PL contents and 42[%] of them did not recognize its. 82.4[%] of them must applied PL law in electric installation, 5.8[%] of them did not need the PL law. Reason of PL application occupied 64[%] for stability of electrical facility and product, 19[%] for prevention of same accident. The accident of transformer occupied most and the power cable accident were much next. The questionnaire survey results, electric safety managers are interested in PL contents, they expected necessity of PL application about electrical accident strongly.

Objectives: Hand sanitizer is made with ethyl alcohol as the main ingredient. Problems related to the use of hand sanitizers and cases of harm caused by the use of hand sanitizers are occurring. This study investigated the usage behavior and recognition level of people using hand sanitizer and identified the chemical components listed in the component label of hand sanitizer. In addition, the methanol and isopropanol contained in hand sanitizer were quantified using HS-GC-MSD. Methods: The investigation of the behavior and recognition of hand sanitizer usage was conducted through a survey of 143 college students and adults. The components marked on 34 types of hand sanitizers were investigated, and methanol and isopropanol concentrations were analyzed using the HS-GC-MSD method. Results: According to the survey, 57% of respondents use hand sanitizers two to three times per day, 92.3% of them do so when in public places and 41.3% of them do so at home. Ethanol, purified water, carbomer, glycerin, and triethanolamine were the ingredients listed in the hand sanitizer. Among the 34 samples, methanol and isopropyl alcohol were detected in 33 samples, the concentration range for methanol was ND-567 ppm, and the concentration range of isopropyl alcohol was ND-2121 ppm. Conclusion: The results of this study have shown that hand sanitizers are being used constantly every day, and methanol, which is not included in the marked content, was detected in a significant concentration compared to wet tissue. It has been found that maintenance of hand sanitizer manufacturing standards and training on how to use them are needed.

Objectives: This study examined trends in the health status and dietary behavior changes by region using the raw data from the 2008 ~ 2019 Community Health Survey. Methods: This study analyzed the data of 2,738,572 people among the raw data of the Community Health Survey from 2008 to 2019. The regional differences in health status and dietary behavior were examined by classifying the regions into capital and non-capital regions, and the non-capital regions were classified into metropolitan cities and provinces. A chi-square test was conducted on the body mass index (BMI), diagnosis of diabetes and hypertension, frequency of eating breakfast, salty taste in usual diet, recognition of nutrition labeling, reading of nutrition labeling, and utilization of nutrition labeling. Results: In determining obesity using the BMI, the normal weight by year decreased, and the obesity rate by year was 34.6% in 2019, which increased by 13% compared to 2008. In addition, the diabetes diagnosis rate and hypertension diagnosis rate continued to increase with the year. Both diabetes and hypertension diagnosis rates were higher in the non-capital regions than in the capital region. Eating breakfast five to seven times per week was most common and showed a significant decreasing trend by year (P < 0.001). The percentage of respondents who said they eat slightly bland foods increased from 19.5% in 2008 to 19.9% in 2010 and then to 22.1% in 2013. The percentage then decreased to 19.9% in 2019, but showed an overall increasing trend (P < 0.001). According to the region, the capital region had a higher percentage than the non-capital region. The nutrition labeling's recognition rate and utilization rate increased yearly, whereas the reading rate decreased. Conclusions: The study results presented the primary data necessary to develop nutrition education programs and establish strategies for local nutrition management projects to improve disease prevention and dietary problems.
