The survey was done on 30 cases of obese patients who were treated by fasting therapy in the Dept. of Oriental Rehabilitation Medicine, oriental medical hospital in Won Kwang University from May 1995 to August 1995. The results are as follows: 1. The ratio of females to males was 1:14. The distribution was 20th decades (63%), 30th decade(13%), 10th decade(6.7%), and 40th decade(6.7%). 2. In the age of obese-prevalence, the middle to high school years was the highest number as 12 persons(40%). The 20th decade(23.3%) and 30th decade(13.3%) were the second and third highest frequency of subjects. 3. In the obesity index, 150% of ideal weight was the highest percentage with persons(40%). 120-129%(30%), 130-139%(23.3%) and 140-149%(6.7%) were in order of frequency. 4. In the family histories of obese patients, it was found that hypertension had a high incidence of 8 persons. Other evidences of family histories were DM (7), cancer (3) and CVD (2). In hereditary tendency of obese parents, it was known that hereditary tendency of obese mothers was high at 14 persons, that of obese fathers was 5 persons, and that of obese parents was 2 persons. 5. In identifying the cause of obesity, it was found that changes of diet patterns was high at 24 persons(80%). Pregnancy, birth and diseases were in order of cause. 6. The review of consumption showed that obese patients ate the same amount as non-obese persons in the case of 21 patients(70%), 8 patients(26.7%) ate more than non-obese persons and 1 person(3.3%) ate less than persons of the same ages. 7. Obese patients consumption of daily snacks was 10 persons(33%). 17 person(57%) of the obese patients ate midnight snacks every 3-4 days. 11 persons(37%) of the obese patients ate out every 3 - 4 days. 8. For the purpose of weight reduction, 15 patients(50%) used exercise. Fasting therapy(36.7%) and food restriction(33.3%) were the second and third methods used by obese patients. 9. In the relation of constitution medicine usage with obese patients, TAE-EUM-IN was 14 persons(46.7%), SO-EUM-IN was 11 persons(36.7%), and SO-YANG-IN was 5 persons(l6.7%).

Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is now regarded as a heterogenous disease, with variable phenotypes. Acute exacerbation of COPD is a major event that alters the natural course of disease. The frequency of COPD exacerbation is variable among patients. We analyzed clinical features, according to the frequency of acute exacerbation in COPD. Methods: Sixty patients, who visited Gyeongsang National University Hospital from March 2010 to October 2010, were enrolled. Patients were divided into two groups, according to their frequency of acute exacerbation. Frequent exacerbator is defined as the patient who has two or more exacerbation per one year. We reviewed patients' medical records and investigated modified Medical Research Council (MMRC) dyspnea scale, smoking history and frequency of acute exacerbation. We also conducted pulmonary function test and 6-minute walking test, calculated body mass index, degree of airway obstruction and dyspnea and exercise capacity (BODE) index and measured CD146 cells in the peripheral blood. Results: The number of frequent exacerbators and infrequent exacerbators was 20 and 40, respectively. The frequent exacerbator group had more severe airway obstruction (forced expiratory volume in one second [$FEV_1$], 45% vs. 65.3%, p=0.001; $FEV_1$/forced vital capacity, 44.3% vs. 50.5%, p=0.046). MMRC dyspnea scale and BODE index were significantly higher in the frequent exacerbator group (1.8 vs. 1.1, p=0.016; 3.9 vs. 2.1, p=0.014, respectively). The fraction of CD146 cells significantly increased in the frequent exacerbator group (2.0 vs. 1.0, p<0.001). Conclusion: Frequent exacerbator had more severe airway obstruction and higher symptom score and BODE index. However, circulating endothelial cells measured by CD146 needed to be confirmed in the future.

≪십개사휘중적중국(十個詞彙中的中國)≫ 의 한국어판 서문의 제목은 <5월 35일>이다. 이는 중국의 천안문 사건이 일어난 1989년 6월 4일을 의미한다. 중국 정부의 인터넷 검열을 피하기 위하여 교묘하게 '5월 35일'이라 부르게 된 것이다. 원본 ≪십개사휘중적중국(十個詞彙中的中國)≫가 중국에서 출판이 금지된 이유는 이 책이 바로 직접적으로 천안문 사태를 언급하는 '6월 4일'식 글쓰기 때문이라고 간접적으로 말하고 있다. 반대로 같은 저자 위화의 다른 소설 ≪형제≫는 더 직접적인 비판일색의 소설임에도 이 소설의 형식이 저자가 말하는 '5월 35일'식 글쓰기였기에 정부 검열의 여지가 있음에도 출판된 것이다. 저자 위화가 말하는 '5월 35일'식 글쓰기와 '6월 4일'식 글쓰기는 각각 '허구'와 '비허구'의 글쓰기를 지칭한 것이다. 지난 30년간 위화는 이른바 소설이라는 '허구적 글쓰기' 속에 사랑과 애증의 필치로 자신이 사는 중국의 현실을 이야기하여 왔다. 그리고 그간의 소설속에 예리한 비판정신을 담아왔음은 그의 작품을 아는 많은 독자들 누구나 인정하는 사실이다. ≪십개사휘중적중국(十個詞彙中的中國)≫은 소설이 아니라 산문이다. 하지만 이 작품에는 위화가 더 이상 소설이라는 틀에 의존하지 않고 현실에 대한 포문을 자신의 이야기하고 싶은 열망을 직접적으로 표현하기 시작한 첫 작품이라는 중요한 의미가 있다.

The purpose of this study was to identify levels of activity of daily living, self-efficacy. stroke specific quality of life and need for self-help management program for patients with hemiplegia in the home. Data were collected from June to November, 2000 and subjects were 88 poststroke patients who lived in Seoul and Kyunggi-do. The questionnaire consisted of 5 scales: activities of daily living, self-efficacy, stroke specific qulaity of life and need for a self-help management program. Data were analyzed using frequencies, percent, paired t-test, and Pearson's correlation coefficient with the SAS(version 6.12) program. The results are as follows ; 1) Most of subjects were Partially independent in ADL, but they needed assist once to do dressing, bathing meal preparation and house keeping work. 2) The mean self-efficacy score was 54.89(range : 1 to 80) and the individual differences were large. 3) Subjects responded that they were satisfied on the stroke specific quality of life scale totaled 65.8%. This value is comparatively low, especially for social role(51.4%), family functioning(58.3%) and mood (62.2%). 4) The highest needs for self-help management programs were for physical therapy, stress management, and range of motion exercise and the lowest needs were for elimination management and training, family counseling, and speech therapy. 5) On the demographic variables, sex showed significant differences for the dependent variables. Females had higher scores than males for IADL, self-efficacy, stroke-specific quality of life, and need for self-help management. 6) Age had high negative correlation with ADL, self-efficacy and stroke specific quality of life. Age was also correlated with need for self-help management. In conclusion, there was a high correlation for ADL, Self-efficacy and Quality of life in poststroke patients of home. The patient with a stroke also had a strong need for self-help management programs especially physical therapy and stress management. Therefore rehabilitation programs based on self-efficacy enhancement need to be developed in order to promote independent living for patients with hemiplegia.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the trend of nursing research related to family support and to provide an effective direction for future research by conducting a review of the Korean nursing literature from 1980 to 2000. A total of 73 studies were analyzed with the following results. 1) The number of studies related to family support has been rapidly increasing since 1984, and 77% of those were conducted in the 1990s. 48 studies, 65% of those analyzed. were degree-based research including 4 doctoral theses (4%) and 45 master's theses (62%). 2) Based on the objective frame of study types developed by Lee et al. (991), the types of studies were analyzed: 56 studies, 76.6% of those reviewed, belonged to factor-relating: 9 studies (12.4%) belonged to factor-isolating: 7 studies (9.6%) belonged to situation-producing: and only 1 study (1.4%) belonged to situation-relating research, respectively. 3) In terms of research design, most studies of analyzed (90.4%) were conducted by non-experimental design, and 7 studies (9.6%) were conducted by experimental design. But, qualitative research related to family support was not found. 4) In terms of research subjects, target populations of experimental studies were patients with arthritis, mental disorder, tuberculosis, coronary artery disease and hypertension. In correlational studies, 51 studies, 69.9% of those analyzed, were conducted to patients with renal failure, cancer and hemiplegia, and 5 studies (6.8%) were conducted to aged people and adolescents. 5) Study concepts used in correlational studies were quality of life, anxiety and depression, self-esteem, hope, role behavior, compliance and self-care activities. The quality of life was most often used among studies with 12.5% of those analyzed. 6) Nursing interventions, including diet therapy, family involving education and supportive care, used in experimental studies mostly showed positive effects on client involvement and home health improvement. However, the nursing interventions of mental health rehabilitation and resistance exercise showed neutral and negative results. The findings of this study provide evidence that more empirical research including experimental or qualitative studies should be conducted actively to improve nursing practice related to family support. Also, to promote more diverse nursing interventions, a family assessment tool especially for Korean families needs to be developed.

Sarcopenia, a common clinical syndrome in older adults, is defined as decreased muscle mass, strength, and physical performance. Since sarcopenia is associated with the incidence of functional decline, falls, and even mortality in older adults, researchers and health care providers have been keen to accumulate clinical evidence to advocate the screening and prevention of sarcopenia progression in older adults. The factors that may accelerate the loss of muscle mass and function include chronic diseases, inactivity, and deficiency in appropriate nutritional support. Among these, nutritional support is considered an initial step to delay the progression of muscle wasting and improve physical performance in community-dwelling older adults. However, a nationwide study suggested that most Korean older adults do not consume sufficient dietary protein to maintain their muscle mass. Furthermore, considering age-associated anabolic resistance to dietary protein, higher protein intake should be emphasized in older adults than in younger people. To develop a dietary protein recommendation for older adults in Korea, we reviewed the relevant literature, including interventional studies from Korea. From these, we recommend that older adults consume at least 1.2 g of protein per kg of body weight per day (g/kg/day) to delay the progression of muscle wasting. The amount we recommend (1.2 g/kg/day) is 31.4% higher than the previously suggested recommended daily allowance (i.e., 0.91 g/kg/day) for the general population of Korea. Also, evidence to date suggests that the combination of exercise and nutritional support may enhance the beneficial effects of protein intake in older adults in Korea. We found that the current studies are insufficient to build population-based guidelines for older adults, and we call for further researches in Korea.

수중운동치료는 물의 저항을 이용하여 충분한 운동 효과를 낼 수 있어서 관절염이나 재활치료를 받아야하는 환자들에게 긍정적인 효과를 가진다. 하지만 효과에 대한 국내 연구는 미비한 실정이고, 그 효과에 대한 근본적인 원인규명은 아직까지 확실하지 않다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 수중운동 효과의 근본적인 원인을 파악하기 위해 실제 환경과 비슷한 조건으로 Unsteady fluid flow simulation을 진행했다. 해석 모델은 실제 손을 모델링하였고, 손가락 마디에 가해지는 압력변동을 the methods of computational fluid로 분석했다. 손의 수중운동 시, 피부 표면속도와 유동 저항에 의하여 손가락 사이에 다양한 크기의 와류가 발생한다. 와류에 의해 약 -500Pa부터 +500Pa 정도의 압력이 가해지고, 방향을 전환하는 부분에서는 최소 -2000Pa에서 최대 +2000Pa까지의 양압과 음압이 지속적으로 반복됐다. 또한 손가락 마디마다 20Hz ~ 70Hz의 진동수를 가진 압력 변동이 지속적으로 가해졌다. 이러한 지속적인 압력 변동은 손가락 마디에 직접적인 마사지 효과를 제공하고, 관련 부위의 혈액순환에 긍정적인 영향을 미친다고 판단된다.

본 연구는 반폐쇄성도훈련에 기반을 둔 성대에어로빅치료(Vocal Aerobic Treatment: VAT)가 소프라노 성악가 음성개선에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 연구대상은 성대결절로 음성문제를 호소하는 소프라노 성악가 1명으로 연구를 진행하였다. 연구방법은 치료 전 후 음향학적평가와 주관적 음성평가를 실시하여 측정값을 비교하였으며, 성대에어로빅치료는 주 2회 총 32회기동안 진행하였다. 음향학적 평가는 MDVP (multi-dimensional voice program)와 VRP (voice range profile)를 사용하여 음도, 음질, 음역을 평가하였으며, 주관적 음성평가는 SVHI (singing voice handicap index)로 주관적인 음성만족도를 평가하였다. 음도 평가 결과 치료 후 소프라노 가수에 적절한 기본주파수(Fo)를 유지하였다. 음질평가 결과 주파수변동률(Jitter), 진폭변동률(Shimmer), 배음대소음비(NHR) 수치가 치료 전보다 감소하였다. 음역평가결과 음역의 범위가 넓어졌으며 반음의 개수가 30개에서 35개로 증가하였다. 주관적 음성평가는 설문 보고 후 획득한 총 점수를 문항수로 나눈 결과 3.6점에서 0.6점으로 감소하였으며, 본인이 느끼는 음성문제의 정도가 경미하다고 보고하였다. 이러한 결과를 정리해보면 성대에어로빅치료는 성악가 음성개선에 효과적인 것으로 사료된다. 그러나 본 연구는 소프라노 성악가 1명을 대상으로 한 성대에어로빅치료의 치료 효과에 관한 사례연구로 향후 더 많은 성악가를 대상으로 효과에 대한 연구가 이루어져야 할 것이다. 또한 성악가뿐만 아니라 다양한 직업적 음성사용자를 위한 음성관리 및 음성치료프로그램에 관한 후속 연구가 필요할 것이다.
