Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the relationships between the level of knowledge, attitude and compliance of preventive behaviors of the Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) among nursing students. Methods: The study sample consisted of 219 nursing students. Through the use of a structured questionnaire, data collection was conducted from June 1st to June 30th 2015. The descriptive statistics, independent t-tests and Pearson's correlation coefficient were employed to analyze the data. Results: The score of the MERS-related knowledge was 9.15 out of 13. The participants had a positive attitude toward the MERS. The level of MERS-related knowledge was high in the case of temporary school closure or break in clinical practice because of the clinical training in hospitals that MERS occurred (t= 2.42, p= .016). The compliance level of the preventive behavior for MERS was high in female students (t= -2.11, p= .036), in the case of temporary school closure or break in clinical practice due to the clinical training in hospitals that MERS occurred (t = 3.29, p= .001), and in students that had MERS-related education for prevention (t = 2.80, p= .006). The MERS-related knowledge was positively correlated with the level of compliance for preventive behavior (r= .18, p= .009). Conclusion: To prevent MERS infection in nursing students, the level of knowledge on MERS should be enhanced so that they can practice preventive behaviors against it. Additionally, the MERS infection control education should include etiology and treatment products based on the MERS response guideline issued by the Centers for Korea Disease Control and Prevention.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to identify the effect of abdominal stabilization exercise with Stabilizer and Gymball. METHODS: The participants were divided randomly into 2 groups each of 20 participants in the gymball exercise group and 20 participants in the exercise group. The changes of respiratory muscle activity between the two groups were measured three times a week for 4 weeks. The activity of rectus abdominis and internal oblique was measured using surface EMG to measure respiratory muscle activity. The training was repeated five sets, and one set was repeated 6 times with one 10 second exercise and 5 second rest. RESULTS: The results of the study showed that there was a significant difference in the amount of respiratory accessory muscle activation, inspiratory pressure, respiratory minute volume at the experimental group with stabilizer and control group with gymball exercise. Between-group difference was statistically significant only for rectus abdominis muscle activation. CONCLUSION: Both the stabilizer and the gymball exercises were effective in improving the respiratory rate but there was no difference between the two groups. Also, when comparing activity of muscle in both group, both groups were effective in improving and more effective than improvement of muscular activity of stabilizer in muscle of stabilizer.

목 적: 호흡을 고려한 사차원방사선치료의 효용성 증대를 위하여, 규칙적이고 안정된 호흡주기 및 호흡량을 갖도록 환자를 교육하고 호흡을 연습시키는 호흡연습장치 및 프로그램을 자체 제작하여 유용성을 평가하였다. 대상 및 방법: 호흡연습장치를 사용시 및 사용후의 호흡의 규칙도의 변화를 측정하기 위해 11명(자원자 9명, 환자 2명)을 대상으로 실험을 실시하였다. 자유롭게 호흡하는 '자유호흡(free-breathing)'법, 자유호흡 시 시뮬레이션 된 표준 호흡주기를 따라함으로써 일정한 호흡주기를 만드는 '신호모니터-호흡(guided-breathing)'법 및 호흡연습 후 시뮬레이션 신호 없이 호흡하는 '연습 후 호흡(postguided-breathing)'법 등 3가지 방법으로 호흡주기를 기록하여 호흡주기(PTP (Peak To Peak))와 호흡크기(Amplitude) 및 호흡패턴(Area, RMS (Root Mean Square))의 변화를 정량적으로 분석하였다. 결 과: 호흡주기를 보여주는 PTP 값은 '신호모니터-호흡'에서 표준편차 값(standard deviation)이 의미 있게 감소하여 호흡주기가 더 규칙적이었고(자유호흡 0.568 vs 신호모니터-호흡 0.344, p=0.0013), '연습 후 호흡'법에서는 '자유호흡' 시보다 표준변동치가 낮아 호흡주기가 보다 안정적이었으나 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 없었다(자유호흡 0.568 vs 연습 후 호흡 0.512, p=ns). 호흡량 측정 결과는 '자유호흡'보다 '신호모니터-호흡'의 경우 호흡량의 표준편차 값이 낮아 호흡량이 보다 일정하게 유지되었으나 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 없었다(자유호흡 1.317 vs 신호모니터-호흡 1.068, p=0.187). 호흡 패턴은 '자유호흡'과 '모니터 호흡' 사이에는 큰 차이가 발생하지 않았지만, '연습 후 호흡'에서는 호흡주기 내 호흡함수의 평균 면적이 7% 감소하였고 RMS 값은 5.9% 감소를 보였다. 결 론: '신호모니터-호흡'에서 호흡주기 및 호흡량이 가장 일정하게 유지되었다. 호흡연습의 효과는 시뮬레이션 신호 없이 호흡하는 '연습 후 호흡'의 경우 시간 경과에 따라 감소할 것으로 판단되었다. 본 연구에서 제작한 호흡연습장치 및 프로그램은 호흡의 주기의 규칙성과 호흡량을 일정하게 유지시키는데 효과적으로 평가되었다.

Six volunteers (mean $age=25.7{\pm}1.7$, $height=173{\pm}1.9$ and $weight=63.4{\pm}2.3{\;}kg$) participated in a graded exercise test and one hour of basic form of ChunDoSunBup (CDSB) Qi-training to investigate the cardiorespiratory responses and exercise intensity of Qi-training, a Korean traditional psychosomatic training. In the maximal exercise, the trainee showed $96.2{\pm}8.89{\;}l/min$ in ventilation (VE), $46.0{\pm}4.4$ in breath frequency (BF), $1.31{\pm}0.05$ in respiratory exchange ratio (RER), $180.7{\pm}3.0$ in heart rate (HR), and $2.6{\pm}1.1{\;}l/min$ or $40.7{\pm}2.3{\;}ml/kg/ml$ in oxygen consumption $(VO_2)$. Qi-training induced significant changes in BF, RER, HR, and $VO_2$. The exercise intensity of Qi-training were 42.3%, 46.9% and 38.7% of $HR_{max}$ during the sound exercise, slow motion (haeng-gong) and meditation respectively and the average was 46.2% of $HR_{max}$. We conclude that Qi-training is an aerobic exercise of a light (mild) intensity exercise, and it leads to decrease the metabolic rate in the trainee by breathing efficiently and relaxing them. In addition, Qi-training may affect cardiorespiratory function of BF, RER, HR and $VO_{2max}$ in trainees.

많은 요추 불안정성 환자들은 호흡 기능 감소와 호흡 패턴 변화로 인해 몸통 움직임 패턴의 변화를 나타낸다. 본 연구는 요추 불안정성 환자의 호흡 패턴 교정 운동 후 안정 및 노력성 호흡 동안 3개의 흉·복부 둘레 선 (겨드랑이, xiphoid junction, 10번째 갈비뼈)에 대한 사용률 변화를 조사하기 위해 실행하였다. 실험군 15명은 호흡 패턴 교정 운동을, 대조군 15명은 요추 안정화 운동을 실시했다. 중재 전, 두군 모두 안정 호흡과 노력성 호흡 동안 3개의 흉·복부 라인 간의 사용률에서 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<.05). 중재 후, 실험군은 안정 호흡 동안에 3 라인간 사용률 차이가 없는(p>.05) 변화를 나타내었고 노력성 호흡 동안에 두 라인 간 사용률의 변화를 나타내었다(p<.05). 호흡 패턴 교정 운동은 호흡 패턴의 회복을 통해 몸통 운동 패턴을 개선하였다. 따라서 우리는 호흡 패턴 교정이 요추 불안정성 환자를 위한 재활-프로그램의 재교육 및 강화 과정에 적용될 수 있음을 제안한다.

PURPOSE: This study was conducted to analyze the effects of virtual reality inspiratory muscle training and conventional inspiratory muscle training on diaphragm movement and pulmonary function in patients with thoracic restriction. METHODS: This study measured diaphragm movement, forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), peak expiratory flow (PEF), and thoracic mobility (upper, middle, and lower trunk) under two different conditions. Forty young women between 19 and 24 years of age who had no history of orthopedic symptoms for the last 6 months were divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group performed virtual reality inspiratory muscle training and diaphragm breathing, and the control group performed conventional inspiratory muscle training and diaphragm breathing. RESULTS: The control group showed a significant increase in all dependent variables except for lower trunk mobility and PEF. The experimental group showed a significant increase in all dependent variables except for lower trunk mobility. Particularly, the experimental group showed significant increases in diaphragm movement (p<.05), FVC (p<.05), FEV1 (p<.05), and PEF (p<.05) relative to the control group. CONCLUSION: We recommend inspiratory muscle training with a virtual reality program over conventional training to improve diaphragm movement and pulmonary function in patients with thoracic restriction.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the scope of knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of pregnant women about the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine. Materials and Methods: A total of 886 pregnant women were recruited for the study. A cross-sectional questionnaire was conducted on these selected participants. Data about past infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), SARS-CoV-2 infection of closely related people, and deaths due to COVID-19 among their relatives were questioned. Results: The rate of vaccination was higher (64.1%) in pregnant women with higher education levels. Informing about the vaccine, especially by health professionals, showed that the rates of vaccination (25%) increased (p<0.001). In addition, a significant increase was observed in vaccination rates with increasing age and financial income (p<0.001). Conclusion: The main limitation of our study is that the vaccine, which was approved for "emergency use", was just started to be administered to pregnant women during the study. Our findings show that our target audience, low-income, low-education, younger pregnant women should be given more attention than those who apply to the doctor for routine follow-up.

Respiration in Antheraea mylitta was studied using constant pressure respirometer. Oxygen uptake in different stages of life showed that moth has highest rate of oxygen uptake as compared to larva and pupa. At each stage significant sexual differentiation was observed. Depression in the rate of oxygen uptake in diapausing pupa was found to be higher in male ($65.75\%$) than female ($60.65\%$) as compared to non-diapausing counterparts. During diapause lowest oxygen uptake was recorded in the month of February, and were in the order of February < January < December < March < November < April < May < June in male, and, February < January < December < March < April < November < May < June in female. Significant sexual differentiation in oxygen uptake was recorded throughout the period of diapause (November to June) where female pupae registered lower rate of oxygen uptake than that of male. Oxygen uptake in female pupae declined upto $28.89\%$ in non-diapausing and $18.29\%$ in diapausing broods over male. Highest respiratory quotient value was recorded in the moth of November (0.68 in male and 0.70 in female) and, the lowest in the month of March in male (0.54) and May in female (0.55). Percentage loss in pupa weight always remained at a significantly higher level in male (except in February and March). The lowest oxygen uptake rate and weight loss in the month of February shows that the pupae were at peak of their dormancy during this month.
