About smoking and health control by theorize of common with various records investigation prevent an injury from smoking Further, should be contribute for the national health improvement for application of guide to health education. The results of investigation are as follows; 1) Tobacco be transmitted the first year of KwangHea's(reign) from GeeRu(the year of GeeRu), before sixth year of KwangHea's GapIn. 2) By reason of smoking an extreme poison ingerdients is Nicotine, Co, Tar etc three kinds. 3) The number of chemicalcompound in the tobacco smoking. Nicotine play an important part of it makes continue to smoking act. 4) Co, Not only injury vascular in the cell wall but also influence in ardiac muscular tissue. 5) Tar, is play an important part tl determine taste of tobacco or fragrace(a sweet smell). 6) Be demaged in the body with harmful objects of tobacco is first lung cancer, next heart disease, and chronic lung disease etc. 7) Passive smoke(indirect smoke)is first smoker's when have smoking and blow smoke from cigarette take smoking. On second when take smoking as it is burning cagar to end. 8) Female smoker are no good and bring many trouble to the mother's body and fetal body(an unborn child). 9) Nicotine also, like drug and alcohol break out reliance, introspection, poisonous or obstinence syndrome 10) A counterplan about smoke should be settlement with propriety control of smoking and an antismoking(non-smoker).

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relation between health behavior patterns and demographic, socio-economic characteristics, health status, health information in Korea. The quantification method through canonical correlation analysis was conducted to the data from Korea National Health Survey in 1995, which consisted of 5,805 persons. The health lifestyle patterns were quantified as good diet lifestyle, passive lifestyle to the negative direction and drinker lifestyle, smoker lifestyle, hedonic lifestyle and fitness lifestyle to the positive direction. The covariate were related to health lifestyle patterns in the order of sex, age, marital status, occupation, health information, economic status, level of physical labour and health status. Characteristics of male, age below 50, married, blue colored worker, no health information, low in economic status, heavy level of physical labour, and poor in health status were positively related to drinker lifestyle, smoker lifestyle, hedonic lifestyle, fitness lifestyle sequentially.

Adolescents exposed chronically to tobaccotobacco smoke have been found to have reduced pulmonary function as well as an increased risk of lung cancer and a serious heart disease. Consequently, reducing exposure to tobacco smoke is an important public health goal. This study was conducted to develope the exact evaluation method of student smoker or heavy exposure from ETS, and the change on smoking behavior and attitude after a stop-smoking program. From the study, we concluded that the cotinine concentrations in saliva from students indicate exactly whether they are smoker or not. Also, it was found that the more and exact informations from both the cotinine analysis and the questionnaire were obtained than from only the questionnaires. The non-smokers had more positive effects on the changes of cog-nitions, behaviors and attitude about passive-smoking after a stop-smoking program than the smokers. The results of this study show that through both the accurate determination of cotinine in saliva and the questionnaires, the smoking status and the tobacco education effectiveness can be predicted.

The purpose of this study was observing the keratinization of human oral mucosa on smoking & non-smoking persons. The results are as follows : 1. In the oral mucosa of the smoker, it reaveald the increase of keratinization than the non-smoker. 2. The keratinization of the oral mucosa revealed the increase in proportion to the duration of smoking. 3. The keratinization of the oral mucosa increase in proportion to the amounts of smoking. 4. Between the male and the female in smoking, it didn't show the sensible difference in the keratinization of the oral mucosa. 5. Between smoking and non-smoking, there was not a sensible difference in the change of nucleus and cytoplasm of the oral mucosa.

The current study uses longitudinal data, which show secondary school students' responses in a biennial data of surveys from England (n=4,326/boys=2,313;girls=2,413) and Scotland (n=3,528/boys=1,744;girls=1,784), to describe the association between availability of cigarette sales to minor, prosmoking attitudes of family members and drinking/drug use and smoking behaviours amongst adolescents. The findings provided strong evidence suggesting that availability of cigarette sales to minor, lack of familial interest on the child's smoking and other substance use were positively associated with the increased level of smoking behaviour in youth. Girls and boys also differed the likelihood of smoking and being a regular smoker. Boys were found to be more likely than girls to be smoking and to be a regular smoker. The implications of promising prevention programmes for preadolescents and areas for future research are presented

The purpose of this study was to assess the clinical outcomes of active periodontal therapy (APT) and supportive periodontal therapy (SPT) through loss of teeth in the Korean patients with aggressive periodontitis. The number of missing and residual teeth, probing pocket depth were examined in 33 patients diagnosed with aggressive periodontitis at the baseline and who had participated in APT and SPT for 3 years or more. A 20 and 3 teeth were lost during the APT and SPT, respectively. The mean tooth loss rate of 0.13 per patient and year. There was no significant statistical difference in clinical improvement between the smoker and non-smoker groups. Within the limitation of this study, APT combined with supportive therapy could decrease the risk of tooth loss in patients suffering from aggressive periodontitis.

Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of a new scoring system in Korean patients with hematuria at high risk of bladder cancer. Materials and Methods: A total of 319 consecutive patients presenting with painless hematuria without a history of bladder cancer were analyzed, from the period of August 2012 to February 2014. All patients underwent clinical examination, and 22 patients with incomplete data were excluded from the final validation data set. The scoring system included four clinical parameters: age (${\geq}50$ = 2 vs. <50 =1), gender (male = 2 vs. female = 1), history of smoking (smoker/ex-smoker = 4 vs. non-smoker = 2) and nature of the hematuria (gross = 6 vs. microscopic = 2). Results: The area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve (95% confidence interval) of the scoring system was 0.718 (0.655-0.777). The calibration plot demonstrated a slight underestimation of bladder cancer probability, but the model had reasonable calibration. Decision curve analysis revealed that the use of model was associated with net benefit gains over the treat-all strategy. The scoring system performed well across a wide range of threshold probabilities (15%-45%). Conclusions: The scoring system developed is a highly accurate predictive tool for patients with hematuria. Although further improvements are needed, utilization of this system may assist primary care physicians and other healthcare practitioners in determining a patient's risk of bladder cancer.
