  • Purpose: This study aimed to identify the prevalence of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), evaluate factors affecting LUTS among community-dwelling older adults, and provide basic data for a community-based LUTS management program. Methods: A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted from April to November 2010 by using a structured questionnaire. Participants were 157 individuals recruited from 5 community senior centers. Results: The mean LUTS score of the older adults was 9.4 (International Prostate Symptom Score range 0-35). For each LUTS (range 0-5), nocturia was the highest (2.3). Of all older adults, 24.8% had experienced urinary incontinence more than once a month during the past 6 months. Urinary incontinence was found to be an important factor associated with LUTS. Conclusion: A community-based management program for both LUTS and urinary incontinence in community-dwelling older adults should be implemented.

  • Objectives: Although a few studies have investigated the relationship between kidney and oral function (number of remaining teeth), their results remain inconclusive. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the relationship between kidney function and oral health in community-dwelling healthy elderlies and examine the factors associated with kidney function. Materials and Methods: We used cross-sectional data from the Shimane prefecture cohort recruited by the Center for Community-Based Health Research and Education in 2019. We collected clinical data on dental status, background factors and kidney function (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR], mL/min/1.73 m2 and creatinine levels, mg/dL). Results: The study enrolled 481 participants, whose mean age was 66.7±7.4 years, and 223 (46.4%) participants were men. Multivariate analysis revealed significant correlations between eGFR (B=0.17, P=0.04), creatinine (B=-0.54, P<0.01), and the number of remaining teeth. The number of remaining teeth was associated with creatinine and eGFR, which are indicators of kidney function. Conclusion: This study suggests that preserving the teeth may prevent decline in kidney function. Dental professionals should provide instructions and professional care to reduce the risk of systemic diseases such as kidney dysfunction.

  • The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of On-Line Community Assisted Team Learning (OCATL) activities on academic achievement and team member's Shared Mental Model(SMM) subscale scores. Two studies were conducted over two semesters in different universities. The first study was aimed at examining the effects of OCATL on university students' academic achievement using pre- and post- experimental design. For this experiment, 133 university students composed of 80 male and 53 female students from 13 colleges participated. The OCATL activities included the orientation of OCATL, seminar on collaborative learning, on-line community assisted team learning with sixteen hour participation during one semester and a final report (or a term paper). To measure these students' academic achievement, their pre- and post-semester's GPA were compared. The results of paired t-test revealed a significant difference in academic achievement (p<.05). The second study was designed to compare the scores of SMM subscales of the experimental group with the OCATL activities and those of the control group without using OCATL activities. The data was collected using the scale of Shared Mental Model(SMM)-short version developed by Johnson in 2011[18]. For this study, 74 participants from 10 teams served as an experimental group and 15 teams which were not exposed to OCATL activities served as a control group. The MANOVA results showed that SMM subscores of two groups measured after the experiment were statistically significantly different: The experimental group with the OCATL activities showed high scores on general task and team knowledge, general task and communication skills, attitudes toward team and task, team dynamics and interactions, team resources and working environment, and satisfaction with the team.

  • Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the role of hospital-based home health nursing in community care by examining the institutional progress of hospital-based home health nursing and the current status of home health nursing in Korea. Methods: Korean research data, national statistical data, government press releases, and related laws were investigated to clarify the role of hospital-based home health nursing in community care. Results: Korean visiting medical care services, including hospital-based home health nursing, was not found to be sufficient nationwide. The supply of home health nursing did not increase due to the nature of the visiting services that required transportation time, poor profitability due to insufficient insurance fees, and increase in acute beds. Conclusion: The nature of the Korean medical environment and visiting medical care makes it challenging to establish a visiting medical supply system for community care. Therefore, hospital-based home health nursing is an important infrastructure for visiting medical care, and will be a valuable resource to link discharged patients returning to the community when moving health care services. Hence, laws and institutional supplementation to expand the role of home health nursing agencies nationwide are needed along with addressing the limitations in the supply of home health nurses.
