  • 본 연구에서는 PubMed에 등재되었으나 Medical Subject Headings(MeSH)가 부여되지 않은 국내 의학학술지의 문헌을 대상으로 미국국립의학도서관 (NLM: National Library of Medicine)의 Medical Text Indexer(MTI)를 활용하여 MeSH 용어를 추천받은 후, PubMed 레코드의 유사주제문헌 (Relation Citations, PRC)에 부여된 MeSH와의 일치여부를 분석하였다. 또한 논문의 저자가 부여한 키워드(저자키워드)와 PRC MeSH의 일치여부도 비교하였다. PRC MeSH와 MTI MeSH 추천어의 일치율은 주표목이 21.1%였고, 체크태그는 18.1%, 부표목은 16.5%로 나타났다. 우리나라 의학논문에 나타난 저자키워드의 중요한 특징은 MeSH 주표목 위주이고, 체크태그와 부표목은 거의 사용하지 않는 것이다. 따라서 저자키워드와 PRC MeSH 주표목과의 일치율은 23.4%에 이르지만, 체크태그와 부표목의 일치율은 각각 1%, 2.1%였다. 색인전문가가 통제어휘를 사용하여 색인하는 과정에서 PRC와 MTI의 MeSH 주표목과 저자키워드가 일치하는 용어를 주표목으로 부여하고, PRC와 MTI가 추천하는 체크태그와 부표목을 활용하는 등 국내 의학문헌의 MeSH 용어 부여 작업을 반자동화(semi-indexing)하면, 정확하고 신속한 MeSH 부여 작업이 가능할 것이다.

  • This study attempts to reorganize the knowledge classification system for the research fields and majors in education by designing a new classification schedule. Content analysis of the majors and curriculums in the universities and major areas of the academic professors in Korea, and the comparison with the various headings in several classification systems for research fields were carried out. Based upon the comparison with library classification systems and reviews and opinions of subject specialists in major disciplines, finally, a knowledge classification system composed of three parts - schedules, tables and a relative index - was presented. The proposed classification scheme was tested for classifying the research projects listed in the 1998 catalog of the academic research funded by Korea Research Foundation. Also, several ways for developing a more useful knowledge classification scheme to organize disciplinary information effectively and to encourage interdisciplinary research were suggested.

  • Angiogenesis is one of the essential processes that occur during wound healing. It is responsible for providing immunity as well as the regenerative cells, nutrition, and oxygen needed for the healing of the alveolar socket following tooth extraction. The inappropriate removal of formed blood clots causes the undesirable phenomenon of alveolar osteitis (AO) or dry socket. In this review, we aimed to investigate whether enhanced angiogenesis contributes to a more effective prevention of AO. The potential pro- or anti-angiogenic activity of different materials used for the treatment of AO were evaluated. An electronic search was performed in the PubMed, MEDLINE, and EMBASE databases via OVID from January 2000 to September 2016 using the keywords mentioned in the PubMed and MeSH (Medical Subject Headings) terms regarding the role of angiogenesis in the prevention of AO. Our initial search identified 408 articles using the keywords indicated above, with 38 of them meeting the inclusion criteria set for this review. Due to the undeniable role of angiogenesis in the socket healing process, it is beneficial if strategies for preventing AO are directed toward more proangiogenic materials and modalities.

  • The purpose of this study is to analyze and systematize the semantic relationships in knowledge organization systems(KOS) . For this purpose, Classification systems, thesaurus, subject headings, semantic networks, ontology, databases were analyzed in terms of the semantic relationships between terms. Also, various kinds of the terminological relationships not only in the current KOS but in the theoretical researches were collected and analyzed. In addition, six proposals were suggested for the organized system of the terminological relationships for the future uses.

  • Background Abdominoplasty, with or without liposuction, is among the most frequently performed aesthetic procedures. Its main objective is to improve the body contour by means of excising redundant skin and fat tissue. Although abdominoplasty is considered a safe procedure with high satisfaction rates, intraoperative and postoperative complications can become a challenge for the surgical team. The aim of this article is to offer a synopsis of the most common complications arising after abdominoplasty, along with evidence-based guidelines about how to prevent and treat them. Methods A systematic MEDLINE search strategy was designed using appropriate Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) terms, and references were scanned for further relevant articles. Results According to the published case series, local complications are considerably more common than complications with systemic repercussions. Approximately 10% to 20% of patients suffer a local complication following abdominoplasty, while fewer than 1% suffer a systemic complication. Prevention and management strategies are critically discussed for complications including seroma, haematoma, infection, skin necrosis, suture extrusions, hypertrophic scars, neurological symptoms, umbilical anomalies, deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary thromboembolism, respiratory distress, and death. Conclusions The complications of abdominoplasty vary in severity and in the impact they have on the aesthetic outcomes. Recommendations for prevention and management are based on various levels of evidence, with a risk of observer bias. However, most complications can be treated appropriately following the current standards, with satisfactory results.

  • Under the hypothesis that any pair of terms in the sentence is meaningful to present the context of the paper, the Brillouin measure of term relatedness in automatic indexing is proposed. For the experiment, the pair of terms simul-taneously appeared in two or more sentences of the paper are extracted from the title and abstract of the paper. Com-pared with the list of index terms or subject headings suggested by the author, the terms in term relatedness graph are highly matched with the terms in the list. Especially, it is revealed that the rank of terms by synthetic strength is use-ful in the selection of index terms.

  • Purpose : The purpose of this study was to investigate the coincidence between keywords of Journal of the Korean Society of Physical Medicine (JKSPM) and MeSH terms, a controlled vocabulary used in MEDLINE. Methods : A total of 838 keywords used in 252 papers of JKSPM from Vol.1, No.1, 2006 to Vol.7, No.1, 2012 were compared with MeSH terms. All of keywords are classified to three large categories; complete coincidence, incomplete coincidence, and complete incoincidence. Results : The keywords in complete coincidence category were 183(21.8%), the keywords in incomplete coincidence category were 378(45.1%), and the keywords in complete incoincidence category were 277(33%). The most used keyword in complete coincidence category was 'stroke' and in complete incoincidence category was 'balance'. The most used keyword matching entry terms in incomplete coincidence category was 'elderly'. Conclusion : The rate of complete coincidene of keywords with MeSH terms was not higher than the rates of incomplete coincidence and complete incoincidence. It is necessary to understand MeSH terms more accurately and specifically. The JKSPM should ask the authors to use MeSH terms as keyword when they submit the paper.

  • The purpose of this study is to explore how the practical knowledge used by an elementary school science teacher during learner-centered science instruction can promote elementary students' construction of positive emotion. Using an auto-ethnographic approach over a period of three months, the researchers collected students' interest diaries, post interviews with students, video recordings in science classes, and students' personal diaries and analyzed them by means of the constant comparative method. In this way, the researchers categorized the structure of the practical knowledge held by the teacher and explained how it was applied in learner-centered science instruction to promote students' construction of positive emotion. Three images of an elementary science teacher's practical knowledge emerged and can be categorized under the following headings: 1) 'From science classroom to science $caf{\acute{e}}$', 2) 'Pleasant experiment class for all students and the teacher', and 3) 'A science class for students who were marginalized'. These images were backed up by principles and rules, and the teacher came to embody these images as he implemented these rules. This study also discusses how the impact of a science teacher's practical knowledge on students' construction of positive emotions can be interpreted as promoting positive outcomes rather than negative sanctions, meeting students' expectation from lab activities, and meeting the specific needs of marginalized students in a science class.

  • Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a disease with high morbidity and mortality that occurs mainly in premature born infants. The pathophysiologic mechanisms indicate that gastrointestinal dysbiosis is a major risk factor. We searched for relevant articles published in PubMed and Google Scholar in the English language up to October 2020. Articles were extracted using subject headings and keywords of interest to the topic. Interesting references in included articles were also considered. Network meta-analysis suggests the preventive efficacy of Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus spp., but even more for mixtures of Bifidobacterium, Streptococcus, and Bifidobacterium, and Streptococcus spp. However, studies comparing face-to-face different strains are lacking. Moreover, differences in inclusion criteria, dosage strains, and primary outcomes in most trials are major obstacles to providing evidence-based conclusions. Although adverse effects have not been reported in clinical trials, case series of adverse outcomes, mainly septicemia, have been published. Consequently, systematic administration of probiotic bacteria to prevent NEC is still debated in literature. The risk-benefit ratio depends on the incidence of NEC in a neonatal intensive care unit, and evidence has shown that preventive measures excluding probiotic administration can result in a decrease in NEC.

  • Purpose: Ménétrier disease (MD) was first described in 1888, and 50 cases have been reported until now. We aimed to discuss the etiology, diagnostics, and management of MD in children. Methods: We searched for case reports published from 2014 till 2019 in English using PubMed. Articles were selected using subject headings and key words of interest to the topic. Interesting references of the included articles were also included. Results: The pathophysiology of MD is still uncertain. However, overexpression of transforming growth factor alpha with transformation of the gastric mucosa has been observed, which may be mediated by genetics and provoked by an infectious trigger. Clinically, MD is diagnosed by abdominal pain, vomiting, anorexia, and edema secondary to hypoalbuminemia. A gastroscopy with biopsy is the gold standard for the diagnosis of MD. In children, the disease is self-limiting and only requires supportive treatment. In general, children have a good prognosis and recover spontaneously within a few weeks. Conclusion: Few pediatric cases of MD have been described in recent years, and with all different etiology. Endoscopy with biopsy remains the golden standard for the diagnosis of MD, and in children, the disease is self-limiting.
