As a result of the technological advance provided by intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) in 1992, the evaluation and treatment of the infertile male has changed significantly. Many men who were previously thought to be irreversibly infertile have the potential to initiate their own biologic pregnancy. However, not all men having impaired semen parameter are ideal candidates for ICSI for numerous reasons including a lack of addressing the underlying problem causing the male infertility, unknown genetic consequences, and cost-effectiveness issues. In this era of ICSI, the fundamental approach to the male with suspected subfertility is unchanged and is based on a history, physical examination, and focused laboratory testing. The urologist should approach the patient with an intent to identify remediable causes of subfertility given the specific clinical situation. For instance, should a gentleman have his varicocele repaired or vasectomy reversed, or should he proceed directly with ICSI? If no factors can be improved in a timely manner, then ICSI should be considered using the available sperm. Examples of recent advances include the diagnosis and treatment of ejaculatory duct obstruction, indications and techniques for performing testis biopsy, and technique for sperm harvesting. In addition, potential genetic causes of male subfertility should be diagnosed and discussed with the patient. Cystic fibrosis gene mutation, karyotype abnormallities, and Y-chromosome microdeletions all have recently been identified as causative for male infertility in otherwise phenotypically normal men. With recently evolved diagnostic and therapeutic techniques now available for the infertile couple, even the most severe male factor problems in patients previously considered irreversibly infertile are now potentially treatable. The physician should be aware of the availability and limitations of these new and exciting reproductive technologies because they will allow him to provide timely and more effective therapy for the infertile couple. An understanding of these advances by all physicians is important as we progress into the $21^{st}$ century

In order to determine the knowledge of, attitudes to, and practice of housewives toward health care in a rural area, a survey with questionnaire was carried out with 87 housewives who were sampled randomly from 6 villages in Sudong Myun, from April 16th to 21st, 1979. The following results were obtained. 1. Of the housewives studied, 61.5% knew that B.C.G. is a vaccine for T.B prevention and 12.3% knew that D.P.T. is a vaccine for diphtheria, pertussis, and tetanus. 2. The vaccination rate of the children under six-year of the housewives studied was: polio 83.1%, B.C.G. 75.4%, D.P.T. 66.2%, and measles 55.4% respectively. 3. The vaccination rate was higher in children in the area near from the health subcenter than in there of the area further away. 4. Out of 87 respondants, 87.5% knew one or more methods of contraception for spacing children. These were: loop 69.0%, oral pill 66.7% and condom 14.9% respectively. 5. Out of 87 respondants, 82.2% knew the methods of contraception for sterilization. These were: laparascopy 87.5% and vasectomy 16.9%. 6. Out of 87 respondants those who had experience using contraceptive methods were 70.1% and present users were 47.1%. 7. Contraception practice rate was higher in the group of housewives having middle school education or above than those having primary school education or less. 8. Functions of the health subcenter listed by respondants were: patients care 72.4%, family planning 31.0%, vaccination 23.0%, T.B. control 3.4%, health education 3.4%, infant birth delivery assistance 1.1% respectively. 9. Housewives who knew that there is a village health voluntary worker in their own village were 63.2%(55), and 58.2% of those who knew appreciated her activities. 10. Purposes of expenditure of Myun community health development funds listed by respondants were: aid for patient care 34.5%, aid for health subcenter operation 16.1%, and aid for Myun health development 6.9% respectively. 11. It seems that both of the distance from the health subcenter and the utility rate level of the village health voluntary worker are co-related to the B.C.G. vaccination rate of children. 12. It seems that both of the distance from the health subcenter and the utility rate level of the village health voluntary worker are not co-related to the rate of contraception practice.

인체 정관 평활근에서 각종 자율신경전달체 수용체의 유무를 조사하고 benzodiazepine계의 진정-항불안제인 diazepam이 평활근 운동성에 미치는 작용을 관찰하기 위하여, 32내지 45세의 건강한 지원자로부터 정관절편을 얻었다. 정관 절제술은 국소마취하에 시행되었고, 정관절편의 수축력 측정은 등장성장력측정기에 의하였다. 적출장기실험조 내에서 정관절편의 자율수축은 관찰되지 않았으나, norepinephrine에 대한 반응성은 $33^{\circ}C$에서 가장 예민하였던 바, 이 norepinephrine에 의한 농도의존적 수축력증가작용은 알파-아드레날린성 차단제인 phentolamine에 의해 억제되었다. 또 인체 정관절편은 본 실험의 조건하에서 isoproterenol 의하여 수축하였고, 이 수축작용은 베타-아드레날린성 차단제인 propranolol 의하여 완전히 제거되었다. 동시에 인체 정관절편은 acetylcholine에의해서도 비교적 강하게 수축하였고, 이 수축작용은 콜린성 무스카린성 차단제인 atropine에 의하여 완전히 억제되었다. Diazepam은 norepinephrine에 의한 수축을농도 의존적으로 억 제 하였다. 이상의 결과를 종합하면, 인체 정관 평활근은 체온보다 낮은 $33^{\circ}C$에서 그 활동성이 가장 강하고, 자율신경에 대하여서는 아드레날린성 및 콜린성 수용체가 공존하고 있으며, diazepam은 그 수축력을 약화시킨다고 사료된다.

1. Introduction Community medicine with the concept of comprehensive medical care and an ideal medical care delivery system not only for an individual or family but for the whole community has emerged. In April 1970, the Presbyterian Medical Center started a hospital based community health service project in order to improve the health of the people in rural areas. Prior to commencing a comprehensive medical care system, a family survey was needed. The major objective of this survey was to obtain information concerning the people and their environment so as to be able to plan and implement a comprehensive medical care program in Soyang-Myun. 2. Survey Method An interview using a family record form was carried out for each household. This family record form was designed to get information about demography, family planning, environmental sanitation and vital statistics. Prior to beginning, the members of the survey team were trained in interviewing techniques for three days. The team consisted of a public health nurse, four nurse-aides, a sanitarian and four health extension workers who are working in our project, The survey was carried out during the period November 1971 to March 1972. 3.

현재 우리나라 피임시술방법의 대부분을 차지하고 있는 정관불임수술, 난관불임수술 및 자궁내 피임장치시술(Copper T삽입) 수용자의 피임실천상태, 피임실천의 결정요인과 피임시술후의 부작용 및 피임시술 동기 등을 알아보기 위하여 구미시에 거주하는 피임시술을 받은 대상자 중 1990-1992년 사이에 난관불임수술을 받은 남성 105명, 1992년도에 정관불임수술을 받은 남성 109명, 자궁내 피임장치시술을 받은 여성 214명, 총 428명을 대상으로 피임시술확인서와 설문지를 조사분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 대상자의 연령은 정관불임수술 수용자는 30-34세가 56.0%, 그리고 난관불임수술 수용자의 자궁내 피임장치시술 수용자는 25-29세 사이가 가장 높았다. 직업은 정관불임수술 수용자는 회사원이 가장 많았고, 난관불임수술 수용자와 자궁내 피임장치시술 수용자의 대부분은 직업이 없었다. 전체의 81.2%가 교육정도가 고졸이상이었고, 결혼기간은 9년이내가 대부분이었고, 최종자녀 출산에서 피임시술시까지 기간이 6개월 미만이 34.8%, 3.5년 사이가 25.0%였다. 두자 이하를 얻은 뒤 피임시술을 받은 사람의 정관불임수술 남성의 90.8%, 남관불임수술을 여성의 80.1% 및 자궁내 피임장치시술 수용자중 93.9%이었다. 대부분의 사람들이 다른 사람의 권유보다 자기 스스로 필요성을 느껴서 피임시술을 받았고, 피임시술을 받음 중요한 이유는 원하는 자녀 수를 획득한 것과 양육비 및 교육비부담을 줄이기 위한 것이었다. 정관불임수술 수용자의 11.0%가 부작용을 호소했으며, 가장 흔한 증상은 상처부위염증 및 성욕저하였다. 난관불임수술 수용자의 46.7%가 월경량 증가, 요통, 무기력이었으며, 자궁내 피임장치시술 수용자도 난관불임수술 수용자와 유사하였다. 피임시술실천을 후회하고 있다고 응답한 비율은 난관불임수술과 자궁내 피임장치시술 수용자가 정관불임수술 수용자보다 높았으며, 후회하는 가장 큰 이유는 난관불임수술과 자궁내 피임장치시술 수용자는 부작용 때문이었고, 정관불임수술 수요자는 자식을 낳을 수 없는 불안감, 성욕저하가 가장 큰 이유이었다. 남편대신 부인이 난관불임수술이나 자궁내 피임장치시술 시술을 실천하게 된 가장 큰 이유는 원치 않는 임신으로 인공유산 시키게 될 것 같아서 이었다. 피임시술실천자의 83.2%가 시술비를 정부에서 지원해 주기를 바랐으나, 시술비를 본인 부담 시에도 대부분(86.9%)이 시술을 받았을 것이다라고 응답하여 시술비 부담이 피임시술 실천의지에 크게 영향을 미치지 않았다.

정부는 1960년대 초기의 높은 인구증가율이 경제개발의 저해 요인임을 인식하여 1962년부터 시작되는 5개년 단우의 경제개발 장기계획의 일환으로 가족계획사업을 출산조절정책 수단으로 수용하였다. 초창기부터 가족계획사업은 정부의 보건조직망을 통하여 가족계획요원에 의한 피임보급 활동과 지정시술의사에 의한 자궁내장치 및 불임시술 서비스 등이 무료로 제공되었고 특히 피임방법별 목표량 제도와 규제 및 보상 등 사회제도적 지원시책으로 1980년대까지 지속적으로 사업이 강화되었다. 민간단체의 지원활동으로는 대한가족계획협회에 의한 계몽교육사업과 한국 보건사회연구원(초창기에는 가족계획연구원)에 의한 사업평가 및 조사연구사업이 활발히 이루어 졌다. 결과적으로 1960년에 6명 수준이던 합계출산율이 1980년대 중반에 대치수준(2.1)으로 저하되어 30년도 못되는 단기간에 인구전환을 이룩하는 획기적인 성과를 갖게 되었다. 그후 합계출산율은 1.6에서 1.7 범위의 저출산을 유지하고 있으며 이러한 수준이 지속된다면 현 1% 미만인 인구성장률은 2028년에 총인구가 5,060만 수준에서 그 성장을 멈추고 그 후로는 인구의 감소가 초래될 것으로 예상된다. 이에 정부는 1996년 6월에 기존의 인구억제정책을 전면적으로 폐지하고 인구자질향상에 역점을 두는 방향으로 공식적인 정책전환을 이룩하였다. 한편 남아선호사상 등 영향으로 태아의 성감별에 의한 성선별적 인공임신중절로 인하여 출생성비의 불균형이 심화되고 유배우 부인의 인공임신중절도 아직 상당수준으로 높게 지속되고 있어 삶의질 차원에서의 새로운 인구자질향상 정책이 특히 모자보건과 노인보건을 포함하는 전반적인 국민건강증진 프로그램과 함께 더욱 효과적으로 추진되어 복지사회 구현에 기여할 수 있는 사업으로 발전되는 것이 바람직할 것이다.

This study was conducted to compare the characteristics of high performane areas for family planning with that of low performance areas and to find factors which strongly affected contraceptive practice behavior. For the study, eight areas were selected from 274 rural family planning canvassing areas of Korean Population Policy and Program Evaluation Study, which was an action study operated in all areas of Cheju Island from July 1, 1976 until December 31,1979. As a first step of the action study, Cheju Island was devided up 318 family planning canvasser areas Each area was consisted of 200 households in rural district and 300 households in urhan one Duriog the period of project, each canvassing area had been managed by a female family planning canvasser, selected by director of health center considering several individual conditions needed for family planning activities Basic activities of canvassers were to counsell all the eligihie couples in own charged area about family planning methods and also to distribute contraceptives such as condoms and oral pills. In case couples desire to accept sterilization including vasectomy and tubal-ligation, the canvassers played a linking role connecting potential client with family planning field workers. Canvassng areas shows significant differentce in performance for family planning, nevertheless they are supposed to have almost the same conditions regarding family planning distribution channel. Because the purpose of the Cheju project was to eliminate all the problems that existed in governmental distribution system, that is to remove geographic, economic, cognitive and administrative barriers Accumulated performances of family planning methods accepted by residents in each area were calculated by eligible women aged 14-49. And then canvassing areas were ranked according to performance score. Consequently, 4 areas in extremely high and low family planning performance areas were selected respectively. Major results were obtained by comparing characteristics of high performance area with that of low performance areas, which are as follows: 1. The mean number of living children was about the same both in high and low performance areas for family planning. But respondents' mean age (38.5) in high performance areas was higher than that (37.0) in low performance areas 2. Respondents' perception in the expectant educational level of others' children in high performance areas was higher than that in low performance areas, although respondents educational level, monthly expenditure and ratio of children in high school and above was not different. 3. Ratio of ownerships of TV and newspaper in high performance areas was highen than that in low performance areas 4. The duration of canvasser' charge in high performance areas was longer than that of low performance areas, showing the fact that canvassers didn't move cut in high performance areas 5. In high performance areas, canvassers' houses were relatively located in the center part of the village. And so villagers resided in near distances from the anvasser's house 6. 4H clubs' activities in high performance areas were more active than those in low performance areas Therefore it was assumed that cohesiveness of community in high performance areas were stronger than that in low areas. 7. Canvassers' family planning practice rate was higher than that in low performance areas, and also canvassers' human relationship was more sociable than that of canvassers in low performance areas. 8. Fourteen variables which showed relatively high significance level in $X^2$ and F test were selected as independent variables for stepwise regression analysis. According to the results of regression analysis. five of 14 variables-distributors education level ($R^2$=.4439), duration of distributor's charge ($R^2$=.6166), 4H club activities ($R^2$=.6697), canvasser's contraceptive practice ($R^2$=.7377) and location of distributions house ($R^2$=.8010) explained 80.1 percent of total variance.
