Background and Objectives: To evaluate the impact of smoking in young adults on the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and the clustering effect of behavioral risk factors such as smoking, obesity, and depression. Methods: A Korean nationwide population-based cohort of a total of 3,280,826 participants aged 20-39 years old who underwent 2 consecutive health examinations were included. They were followed up until the date of CVD (myocardial infarction [MI] or stroke), or December 2018 (median, 6 years). Results: Current smoking, early age of smoking initiation, and smoking intensity were associated with an increased risk of CVD incidence. Even after quitting smoking, the risk of MI was still high in quitters compared with non-smokers. Cigarette smoking, obesity, and depression were independently associated with a 1.3-1.7 times increased risk of CVD, and clustering of 2 or more of these behavioral risk factors was associated with a 2-3 times increased risk of CVD in young adults. Conclusions: In young adults, cigarette smoking was associated with the risk of CVD, and the clustering of 2 or more behavioral risk factors showed an additive risk of CVD.

40대 이후 급증하는 중년여성의 우울증은 다양한 치료방법에도 불구하고 좀처럼 감소하지 않고 있다. 이러한 현상이 자기상실에서 오는 전체성의 몰인식에서 기인한다는 전제하에, 보다 근원적인 치료방법을 위한 질적 연구가 필요하다. 이에 본 연구는 2016년 9월부터 2018년 11월까지 우울증을 호소하는 3명의 기독교인 중년여성을 연구 참여자로 선정, 10~15회기 심층상담과 인터뷰를 실시하여 261개의 의미단위와 11개의 하위구성요소를 도출하였으며 도출한 의미단위를 2개의 주제군인 우울증 경험과 개성화과정의 현상으로 나누어 구조화하였다. 심층상담 결과를 바탕으로 우울증 경험과 개성화과정의 현상으로 구조화한 결론은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 우울증의 경험은 신체적, 인지적, 정서적, 행동적, 사회적, 영적인 면에서 고통스러운 증상으로 나타나는데 이는 삶의 의미를 찾으려는 의욕으로 변환되고 새로운 길을 모색하는 창조적 질서를 위한 과정으로 연결된다. 둘째, 중년여성의 개성화과정 현상은 페르소나, 그림자·콤플렉스, 아니무스와의 직면에서 또 다른 고통을 불러오지만, 동시에 이를 극복하기 위한 겸손과 용기의 태도 또한 가져온다. 셋째, 중년여성의 개성화과정에서 자기실현의 현상은 카타르시스 후 자기성찰을 통해 문제를 인식하고 수용하는 것으로부터 시작되고 점차 인격과 관계의 변화, 전반적인 삶에서의 변화, 종교적인 영역에서의 변화, 인지적·정서적·행동적인 영역에서의 긍정적 변화 등이 나타났다. 결론적으로 본 연구를 통해서 우울증을 경험한 중년여성이 고통의 본질적인 의미를 깨닫고 개성화과정을 통해 근원적으로 치료 받을 수 있는 계기를 마련하고, 일반 중년여성들에게도 예방적 차원의 방법을 제시하였다는 데 의의가 있다.

Purpose: This study was aimed to investigate the factors influencing problem drinking of male drinkers above 19 years old according to the life cycle. Methods: The study subjects consisted of a representative community sample of 2,229 male drinkers aged 19 and older from the 2011 Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Rao-Scott $x^2$-test, simple and multiple logistic regressions. Results: The problem drinking rates were 38.7% in adolescence, 44.5% in middle age, and 23.9% in senescence. In adolescence, the predictors of problem drinking included occupation, stress recognition, and smoking. In middle age, the predictors of problem drinking were education level, depression, and smoking. In senescence, the predictors of problem drinking were not identified in this study. Conclusion: The findings of this study suggested that the factors influencing problem drinking of male drinkers were different according to life cycle. Thus different intervention methods should be developed for each age group in order to intervene the problem drinking.

Purpose: This study aimed to determine the influence of psychological factors such as highly sensitive person, intolerance of uncertainty, depression, and self-esteem on nurses' perceptions of gaslighting damage. Methods: The participants were 178 nurses working in hospitals nationwide. Data were collected through a non-face-to-face approach using an online survey platform (Google Forms) with self-reported questionnaires. Perceptions of gaslighting damage were measured using the victim gaslighting questionnaire (VGQ). The collected data were analyzed with statistical methods such as independent t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and multiple regression analysis using IBM SPSS 25.0. Results: Of the participants, 94.4% were female. The participants' average age was 32.7 years old, 60.2% were unmarried, and 86.0% were staff nurses. The mean score of the VGQ was 40.49. There were statistically significant differences in the VGQ according to marital status, participants' time in their current department, total clinical career, and type of medical institution. The perception of gaslighting damage was statistically significantly positively correlated with intolerance of uncertainty, highly sensitive person, depression, and self-esteem. The most influential factor on nurses' perception of gaslighting damage was intolerance of uncertainty (β=.32, p<.001), followed by depression (β=.30, p<.001) and highly sensitive person (β=.23, p=.001). The total explanation of these variables for the perception of gaslighting damage by nurses was about 75.0%. Conclusion: This study suggests that it is necessary to develop an intervention program to reduce negative psychological factors affecting gaslighting in nurses and to cultivate nurses' strength to overcome gaslighting damage.

노인우울은 유병율이 높을 뿐만 아니라 상당히 심각한 신체적, 심리사회적, 경제적 부담을 초래함에도 불구하고, 노화의 과정으로 또는 신체질환의 일부로 여겨지는 가운데 개입이 지연되고 있다. 건강문제를 해결하기 위한 시도가 일반적으로 당사자나 주변인들의 문제 인식에서 비롯되는 점에 비추어 볼 때, 우울증상에 대한 정확한 식별은 자기 자신은 물론 주위 노인들의 증상에 대한 조기발견과 개입을 촉진하는데 도움이 될 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 대도시에 거주하는 노인 104명에 대한 면접 설문조사를 통해 우울증상에 대한 노인들의 식별력과 증상의 개념화 방식을 탐색하고 이에 영향을 미치는 요인들에 대한 분석을 실시했다. 연구결과, 우울증상을 식별할 수 있었던 노인은 전체 응답자의 14%에 불과했으며, 그 밖에는 외로움, 정서적 문제, 경제적 문제 등으로 인식했다. 75세 이상의 나이, 주된 정신건강정보원이 대중매체인 경우 식별력이 감소하는 것으로, 정신건강 지식이나 정보의 주된 원천이 정신건강 관련교육인 경우 식별력 증진에 도움이 되는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 결과에 기초할 때, 노인의 우울증상 식별력을 증진시키기 위한 전략으로 정보지 비치나 일회성 행사위주의 정보전달보다 면대면의 구체적 정보제공과 상담 방식이 효과적일 것으로 보이며, 대중매체의 정신건강 및 질환 콘텐츠에 대한 면밀한 검토에 초점을 둔 후속 연구도 필요할 것이다.

A study was performed to develop as a screening tool the Simple Evaluation Questionnaire for Screening the Over-weight-type Dietary Pattern in 30 to 49 Year Old Adults. We used the data from the 30 to 49 year old subjects who participated in the three surveys - the health behavior survey, the dietary habit survey and the food intake survey - as the National Health and Nutrition Survey 1998. The 3,598 adults were classified into to two body fatness groups of normal (including underweight) and overweight (including obese) on the basis of their relative body weight (RBW) When comparing variables between the two groups, significant differences were found in gender, education, job, employment status, perceived health status, sadness / depression state, stress level, age, number of diseases, age when overweightedness started, maximum body weight, sleep length, drinking pattern (yes/no) , amount of alcoholic drinks, frequency of intoxication or drunkeness, amount of alcoholic drinks when drunk, intensity of exercise, frequency of exercise, exercise duration, skipped meals, small meals and drug supplements. In terms of food intake, there were significant differences in the daily food intake in terms of breakfast, dinner, daily kimchi and dairy products. In terms of mealtimes, we found differences in the amount of cooked rice at breakfast, kimchi at lunch, soup / kuk at dinner, fresh vegetables for snacks, fried foods for snacks between breakfast and lunch, and fruits /juices for snacks between lunch and dinner. After developing questions with indicators and analyzing the indicators by logistic regression analysis three times, we chose 10 questions for a simple evaluation of dietary patterns for the overweight-type category in order to give one point each. Among them we selected two questions to add one additional point and one question to add two additional points. The average scores of the overweight and normal groups, as shown by the developed questionnaire, were $5.97 \pm 2.36 \pm 7.36 \pm 2.21$, respectively. A score of seven points was selected as the cut-off point. We examined the sensitivity, specificity and positive predictive value of the questionnaire to the results of 67%, 59% and 62%, respectively.
