As Daniel Bell says, that modern society is an information society. In contrast to earlier days, modern society has placed a high value on information and knowledge. Therefore, modern civilization depends largely on information and knowledged, which is the most valuable sources of all intelligence activities. By coordinating a large number of human action, the information creates a powerful social tool. It combines its personnel with its resources and new materials at various level. At the same time, It continually evaluates how well it is performing and tries to adjust itself accordingly in order to achieve social goals. As we shall see, all this allows information to sew the various needs of society. In connection with above mentioned problem consciousness, the study is designed to sew the following purposes. As its title indicates, and perhaps most significant. This study is to review and reinterpret the existing literature on local telecommunication system, networks, and policy direction in order to arrive at a somewhat more general approach to understanding them. In local telecommunications service, the service exploitation and promotion and database development must be accomplished by establishing local telecommunications. If we develop local telecommunications toward the progressing direction, we would dissolve the regional information disparity and could also make the local policy suited for high-intelligence society. It is true of any science that knowledge is never complete. It is also true of a science that knowledge should grow, through systematic reexamination of the body of findings. There are certainly true of this study on the developmental direction for local telecommunication system.

This study tried to find out how to overcome multicollinearity problems in the structural equation model by creating a hierarchical construct model about the repurchase intention of social commerce. This study selected, as independent variables, price, quality, service, and social influence, based on literature review about social commerce, and then, as detailed variables of independent variables, selected system quality, information quality, transaction safety, order fulfillment and after-sales service, communication, subjective norms, and reputation. As results of empirical analysis about hierarchical construct model, all the independent variables were accepted having a significant impact on repurchase intention of social commerce. Next, this study analyzed the competition model that eight independent variables of price, system quality, information quality, transaction safety, order fulfillment and after-sales service, communication, subjective norm, and reputation directly influence the repurchase intention of social commerce. As results of empirical analysis, system quality, information quality, transaction safety, communication appeared to be insignificant. This study showed that hierarchical construct model is useful to overcome the multicollinearity problem in structural equational model and to increase explanatory power.

Purpose: This study was conducted to suggest a method for financial projection of health insurance expenditures that reflects future changes in demographic structure. Methods: Using data associated with the number of patients and health insurance cost per patient, generalized linear models (GLM) were fitted with demographic explanatory variables. Models were constructed separately for individual medical departments, types of medical service, and types of public health insurance. Goodness-of-fit of most of the applied GLM models was quite satisfactory. By combining estimates of frequency and severity from the constructed models and results of the population projection, total annual health insurance expenditures were projected through year 2060. Results: Expenditures for medical departments associated with diseases that are more frequent in elderly peoples are expected to increase steeply, leading to considerable increases in overall health insurance expenditures. The suggested method can contribute to improvement of the accuracy of financial projection. Conclusion: The overall demands for medical service, medical personnel, and relevant facilities in the future are expected to increase as the proportion of elderly people increases. Application of a more reasonable estimation method reflecting changes in demographic structure will help develop health policies relevant to above mentioned resources.

As an electronic commerce grows in a rapid speed today, it has a great effect on not only our consuming lives but also the marketing activities. The study on involvement levels and consumer satisfaction in physical market in the existing studying papers in home was made progress rapidly. But, the study on involvement levels and consumer satisfaction in virtual market leaves much to be desired. This paper aims at considering the relationship between the involvement levels and the consumer satisfaction factors in the electronic commerce through the internet shopping mall whose importance is emphasized day by day. In this paper, three following questions were studied: (1) what is the difference among the factors(product/service/image) of consumer's satisfaction in accordance with consumers' involvement levels, (2) what is the difference in an intention of repurchase in accordance with the consumers' satisfaction factors, and (3) what is the difference in an intention of repurchase in accordance with the involvement levels and the consumers' satisfaction factors. As a result of analysis, only the service one of the factors of consumer's satisfaction has a difference in accordance with high/low involvement, and also, the factors which have an effect on the intention of repurchase were product, service and image.

The most common cause of primary hyperparathyroidism is a single adenoma accounts for more than 85% and about 1-2% in multiple occurrence. The adenoma arises mainly in the neck and rarely in the mediastinum. The simultaneous occurrence is extremely rare. A 73-year-old man came to our clinic complained about sense of falling forward during last eight months. The brain MRI and vestibular function test showed non-specific findings but total calcium and intact parathyroid hormone levels were markedly elevated. Radiologic studies and sesta-MIBI scan revealed multiple masses in lower paratracheal area and superior mediastinum. We performed mass excision with transcervical approach and all of them were diagnosed as parathyroid adenoma. After surgery, intact PTH and calcium levels returned to the normal range and his symptoms were dramatically improved. We report the unique and rare disease entity with a brief literature review.

Objectives : This study reviews the feasibility of Reciprocal Health Care Agreements (RHCA) between South Korea and Australia. Methods : A literature review was conducted using government reports and media articles. Results : In Australia, the Health Insurance Act enables health care agreements with other nations, but Korea has no similar legislation in place. Therefore, Korea must build a broader consensus on the need for RHCA, based on the precedent of Australia's RHCA with 11 nations, as well as on the Korean Pension Act, which has made reciprocal pension agreements with 28 nations through an exceptive clause. The active government involvement of the Ministry of Health and the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade in Australia, and the Ministry of Health & Welfare and Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Korea, are essential for a successful RHCA process. Conclusions : RHCA between Australia and Korea would constitute a significant step forward in strengthening people-to-people links between these two trading partners in the spirit of health diplomacy.
