1999년 11월에서 2000년 4월까지 본 교실에서 비중격 성형술과 하비갑개 절제술 혹은 하비갑개 성형술을 시행 받고 3개월이상 추적 관찰이 가능하였던 45명의 성인환자를 대상으로 비중격 성형술 및 하비갑개 수술의 결과를 전향적으로 분석하였다. 수술 전 증상접수는 코막힘이 가장 높았으며 수술 후 전체적으로 모든 증상에서 통계학적으로 의미 있게 호전되었다(p<0.05). 수술 전 후의 음향비강통기도 검사에서 비강수축전의 경우에서 최소비강단면적은 큰 변화가 없었으나, C-절혼 면적과 비강체적은 의미 있게 증가되었다. 또한 증상의 호전도와 음향비강통기도 검사치의 변화와는 통계학적 연관성이 없었으나, 증상이 호전됨에 따라 최소비강단면적, C-절혼 면적, 비강체적이 증가하는 경향을 볼 수 있었다. 결론적으로 바중격 성형술 및 하비갑개 수술 후 결과 판정방법으로서 수술 전 후의 환자의 주관적인 증상을 접수화하여 어느 정도 객관성을 부여하였으며 수술 전 후의 음향비강통기도 검사를 이용하여 음향비장통기도 검사결과를 구하고 이를 바탕으로 증상접수의 호전도와 음향비강통기도 검사결과를 비교 분석함으로써 증상의 호전을 객관적으로 증명하였다.

For the purpose of investigating the subjective symptom of industrial fatigue, a questionnaire survey was carried out on 282 labor workers and 189 managerial workers who were employed at the manufacture of electronic products in two small scale industries. Checklist of industrial fatigue was composed of physical symptoms(10 items), mental symptoms(10 items), and sensory neurotic symptoms(10 items). The results were as follows : 1. Complain rate of fatigue was the highest in "eye strain" of physical symptom, "feel anxious about things" of mental symptom, and "feel stiffness in the neck or the shoulders" of sensory neurotic symptom in labor workers and managerial workers. 2. Managerial workers demonstrated II dominant type (mental or night work type), while labor workers demonstrated I dominant type of fatigue (general type). 3. Mean weighted score of fatigue complaints in labor workers (23.16) was significantly higher than that in managerial workers (20.34). 4. Mean weighted scores of fatigue complaints in male, 5~9 years of work duration, married, 4~5 hours of sleeping time, graduation of high school and college, and large of workload were significantly higher in labor workers than in managerial workers. 5. In poor work condition with temperature, ventilation, illumination and noise, the average weighted score was significantly higher in labor workers than in managerial workers.

Objectives: This study investigated the effectiveness of acupuncture for improving polycythemia-vera-related symptoms and quality of life. Methods: A 56-year-old woman diagnosed with polycythemia vera received acupuncture treatment between February 19, 2021, and August 26, 2021. We observed the changes in subjective symptoms and conducted myeloproliferative neoplasm symptom assessment form total symptom score (MPN-SAF TSS) questionnaire. Results: After 13 acupuncture treatment sessions over six months, symptoms of polycythemia vera, such as fatigue, bone pain, itching, and headache, improved.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to identify factors associated with subjective memory impairment in patients with diabetes mellitus in a metropolitan city. Methods: The subjects of this study were 351 patients with diabetes mellitus aged 50 and over from five districts of Gwangju who participated in the 2018 Community Health Survey. We analyzed general characteristics, health-related behaviors and health related conditions and subjective experience of memory impairment. To find factors associated with subjective memory impairment, the chi-square test and multiple logistic regression analysis were used. Results: Of all subjects, 31.3% was reported subjective experience of memory impairment. The odds ratios (ORs; 95% confidence interval (CI)) for subjective memory impairment according to age were statistically significant at 1.9 (0.9-4.3) in patients in 60s and 2.2 (1.1-4.7) in patients in beyond 70s compared to those in 50s. The OR (95% CI) of ex-smoker compared to the non-smoker was 0.3 (0.8-0.9). The OR (95% CI) of depressive symptom compared to no depressive symptoms was 4.9 (95% CI: 1.8-13.7). Conclusion: In this study, subjective memory impairment in patients with diabets mellitus was associated with age, smoking, and depressive symptoms. Based on the results of this study, subjective memory impairment should be detected early through periodic cognitive function evaluation for elderly patients with diabetes mellitus, and a program for healthy cognitive function should be included in diabetes management program.

Background : It goes without saying that cumulative trauma disorders is spreading to various types of occupation in many advanced countries including America, and it forms considerable rate of total occupational disorders already. and as the result of it, the seriousness of worker health problem and economic loss owing to production loss, recuperation expense, etc. are on the increasing trend through whole society. In case of Korea, the related measures as well as accurate fact-finding survey data on cumulative trauma disorders aren't prepared in detail, so it implies forward problem would be serious. Purpose : The purpose of this study is to draw the risk factor of cumulative trauma disorders in production factory, to forecast the rate of occurrence of cumulative trauma disorders on the basis of subjective symptoms, and to present forward realistic and effective prevention measures by showing the risk of cumulative trauma disorders, objecting the production factory of a domestic riding automobile assembly shop, by estimating in the aspect of human-engineering through the analysis of risk factor being a cause of cumulative trauma disorders. Methods : For this study, I investigated work type and on-duty hours, breathing time, and subjective symptoms of cumulative trauma disorders through questionnaire, objecting the workers in press. car body, coating, and outfit factory. Results : As a result of research, 81.2% of workers were in the physical burden due to present working, and the highest prevalence by part of body is an waist. The higher a rule score, The higher the number of workers complaind for working intensity, and the higher age work duration, tool used time, the higher prevalence of subjective symptoms by part of body. The number of workers complaind subjective symptom for treatment is the highest in drugstore.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to develop outcome indicators in clinical trials of herbal drugs effective for asthma. cough and sputum. To accomplish the objective, this study collected outcome indicators developed and used according to conventional medical concepts. Methods : Our research group reviewed SCI papers concerned with developing outcome indicators to evaluate amelioration of asthma, cough and sputum. We also reviewed clinical trials of herbal drugs effective for them. Results : To evaluate asthma, objective as well as subjective methods were chosen according to the purpose of each trial. Objective methods were PEF, FEVl, serum IgE, peripheral eosinophil counts, and so on. Subjective methods were symptom scores, symptom diaries, quality of life measures, etc. To evaluate cough and sputum, objective and subjective methods were also chosen. Objective methods were tussigenic challenges, sputum induction and computerized methodology, and subjective methods were similar to the methodology evaluating asthmatic symptoms. Conclusions : It is desirable for a clinical trial evaluating herbal drugs for asthma, cough and sputum to use objective and subjective outcome indicators together. However, biological outcome indicators, a kind of objective methods, can not be chosen as the purpose of trial. Valid and reliable subjective outcome indicators are needed to develop good clinical trials of herbal drugs effective for asthma, cough and sputum.

일부 도시 중년여성을 대상으로 안면부위별 피부상태를 파악하고자 비침습적 측정방법을 이용하여 유 수분, 멜라닌 홍반 정도를 관찰하였고, 주관적으로 자각하는 유 수분 유형을 조사하여 객관적 측정값들과의 관련성을 보고자 하였다. 안면부위별 측정 결과, 수분량은 눈가>이마>볼, 유분량은 이마>눈가>볼 부위 순이었으며, 홍반지수는 이마>볼>눈가, 멜라닌지수는 눈가>이마>볼 부위 순이었다. 객관적 유분 측정값과 주관적으로 자각하는 유분유형은 일치성을 나타내었다. 유분량 홍반지수, 멜라닌지수의 각 측정값들은 유의한 양의 상관관계를 보였다.

본 조사는 요실금 자각 증상이 있는 중년여성을 대상으로 요실금의 주관적 정도와 통증이 그에 따른 삶의 질에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 2010년 2월부터 5월까지 병원을 외래로 방문한 만성 근골격계 여성 환자를 대상으로 요실금 자각 증상이 있는 114명에게 요실금 관련 삶의 질 도구로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 전체적인 삶의 질은 보통($61.36{\pm}13.2$점)이라고 느꼈으며, 요실금과 관련한 통증은 허리통증으로 나타났다. 통증정도는 VAS 4~7의 중간통증으로 나타났으며, 요실금으로 인해 삶의 질 요인 중 행위의 회피 제한과 심리사회적으로 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 조사로 인해 중년여성의 요실금과 통증이 삶의 질에 실질적인 영향을 미침으로 나타나 실질적인 중재 개발에 기초를 제공할 수 있을 것이라 생각된다.

본 연구는 근무특성이 다른 병동과 수술실에 근무하고 있는 간호사들의 인구사회학적 특성, 건강관련행위 특성, 직업적 특성, 직무스트레스 요인 및 사회심리적 요인에 따른 스트레스와 피로수준을 비교 분석하고자 시도하였다. 연구대상은 대전광역시에 소재하고 있는 4개 대학병원의 병동근무 간호사 220명, 수술실근무 간호사 147명, 합계 367명으로 하였으며, 2012년 7월 1일부터 8월 31일까지의 기간 동안에 구조화된 무기명 자기기입식 설문조사를 실시하였다. 연구결과, 사회심리적 스트레스에 관련된 요인으로 병동근무 간호사에서는 연령, 주관적인 건강상태, 근무경력, 업무에 대한 만족도, 업무에 대한 적성, 업무요구도, 업무자율성, 동료의 지지도, 자기존중감, 통제신념 및 A형 행동유형이 지적되었고, 수술실근무 간호사에서는 연령, 수면시간, 주관적인 건강상태, 근무경력, 업무의 신체적 부담정도, 업무에 대한 만족도, 업무에 대한 적성, 직업전환의사, 업무요구도, 업무자율성, A형 행동유형이 지적되었다. 피로수준에 관련된 요인으로 병동근무 간호사에서는 연령, 여가시간 여부, 주관적인 건강상태, 업무에 대한 만족도, 직업전환의사, 업무요구도, 통제신념, A형 행동유형이 지적되었고, 수술실근무 간호사에서는 연령, 주관적인 건강상태, 업무의 신체적 부담정도, 상사의 지지도, 동료의 지지도, 통제신념이 지적되었다. 이와 같은 결과를 볼 때 간호사의 근무부서에 따른 스트레스와 피로수준에 관련된 요인에 차이가 있음을 알 수 있으며 근무부서별 스트레스와 피로수준을 적절하게 통제할 수 있는 프로그램개발 및 실행이 필요하다고 생각된다.
