  • 충청남도 청양군의 2개면 14개리에 거주하는 비닐하우스 재배자 177명과 일반 농민 213명을 대상으로 1998년 2월 24일부터 3월 15일까지 피로도, 주관적 건강상태, 농부증과 이의 위험요인을 파악하기 위하여 설문조사를 실시한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 피로도는 비닐하우스 재배자와 일반 농민간에 차이가 없었으며, 성별로는 여자가 남자보다(p<0.01), 교육수준이 낮을수록(p<0.01), 8시간 미만의 수면시간 (p<0.05), 비흡연자, 비음주자에서 피로도가 높았고, 연령, 식생활습관, 체질량지수는 관계가 없었다. 작업환경은 비닐하우스 재배자에서 총농사기간(r=0.159, p<0.05), 일반 농민은 총경작면적(r=-0.143, p<0.05)과 농작업동반가족수(r=-0.136, p<05)에서 약한 상관관계를 보였다. 2. 주관적 건강상태는 비닐하우스 재배자와 일반 농민간에 차이가 없었으며, 성별로는 여자가 남자보다(p<0.01), 교육수준이 낮을수록 (p<0.01), 8시간 미만의 수면시간(p<0.05), 비흡연자에서 주관적 건강상태가 좋지 않았으며, 연령, 음주, 식생활습관, 체질량지수, 작업환경은 관련성이 없었다. 3. '농부증 있음'은 비닐하우스 재배자 49.2%, 일반 농민 52.1%로 비슷하였으며, 성별로 비닐하우스 재배자와 일반 농민 모두 여자에서 57.0%, 58.8%로 남자 37.1%, 40.3%보다 높았다(p<0.01). 교육수준은 비닐하우스 재배자의 경우 무학 58.1%, 초등학교 50.0%, 중졸 이상 36.1%로 학력이 낮을수록 높았고(p<0.01), 일반 농민도 각각 56.3%, 51.0%, 33.3%로 같은 경향이었다(p<0.01). 흡연과 음주여부는 비닐하우스 재배자의 경우 비흡연군과 비음주군에서 높았으나, 일반 농민에서는 차이가 없었고, 체질량지수도 비닐하우스 재배자의 경우 세장형 57.1%, 비만형 63.9%로 정상형 42.5%보다 높았으나(p<0.05), 일반 농민은 차이가 없었다. 4. 농부증의 위험요인에 대한 다변량 로지스틱 회귀분석에서 성별, 수면시간이 중요한 요인이었으며, 남자를 기준하였을 때 여자의 교차비는 2.53(p<0.01), 수면시간 8시간 미만을 기준하였을 때 8시간 이상은 0.74로(p<0.01), 여자에서 발생위험이 높았고, 수면시간이 8시간 이상일수록 발생위험은 낮아졌다. 5. 비닐하우스 재배지와 일반 농민에서 많이 호소하는 주관적 신체증상은 '등이 결리거나 허리가 아파서 일하기가 어렵다.' '팔과 다리가 몹시 쑤시고 아픈 일이 있다', '손발이 저리거나 찌릿찌릿 하다'. '팔과 다리에 통증이 있어서 불편하다' '손의 힘이 전에 비해 약해졌다'에서 과반수 이상이 있다고 응답하였으며, 비닐하우스 재배자에서 일반 농민보다 많은 증상은 '피부의 일부분이 검게 변하였다'. '습진이나 무좀 등이 피부질환이 있다', '치질로 고생한 일이 있다'였다. 6. 대응분석 결과 비닐하우스 재배자는 피부계 질환이 높게 관찰되었으며, 남자는 소화기계 장애나 기타 질환, 여성에서는 내분비질환, 근육계통의 질환이 많은 것으로 나타났고, 농부증도 일반 농민과 여자에서 상대적으로 높은 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 피로도, 주관적 건강상태, 농부증도 비닐하우스 재배자와 일반 농민간에 차이가 없었으며, 주로 농사와 노동일을 병행하는 여성에서 많고, 연령이 증가함에 따라 유병률도 증가하는 경향을 감안하면 추후 농촌의 노령환된 여성들에 대한 중점적인 관리가 필요하다. 또한 작업환경의 차이에 의하여 비닐하우스 재배자에서만 나타나는 미약하지만 특징적인 증상이 있으므로 이에 대한 지속적인 조사와 관리의 필요성이 있다.

  • This study deals with the current medical utilization for migrant workers and the characteristics of them. The purpose of this study is to provide the basic information to establish proper medical policy. For the study self-made questionnaire was used, which was answered by 453 migrant workers working in the area of manufacturing and non-technical work in 10 cities like Seoul, Inchon, Namyangju, Sungnam, Kwangju, Pyungchon, Kunpo, Kimpo, Masuk in Kyungki-do and Chunan in Chungchungnam-do. Besides, 303 medical records of those who had visited free medical check-up center were analyzed. The period of accumulating data is 6 months, from November 1st, 1996 to April 30th, 1997. The characteristics of migrant workers and current medical utilization are analyzed by percentage and the relation between characteristics and current medical utilization were analyzed using ${\chi}^2$-test, t-test, ANOVA. The finding of this study was as follows : 1) The number of nationality was 16. The first majority was Philippians as 32.0%. Among 16 nationalities Southeastern and Northern Asians were 48.9%, Southwestern Asian was 46.5%, the rest was 7.3%. Men were 81.0%, those who are aged from 26 to 30 were 39.0%, Graduatee from high school 92.7%, Christians 56.3%, unmarried 55.4% and salary from 600,000 Won to 800,000 Won 53.8% averaging monthly payment 669,810 Won. As for their residence, those who resided over 3 years were 31.9% and the illegal residence reached 77.4%. As for Korean language, those who speak in middle level were 5.6%. 2) As for kind of work and circumstances, manufacturing was 81.1%, 4 off-days per month 72.2% and 9-10 working hours per day 42.1%. As for accommodation, residence in fabric was 62.6% and one or two members as roommate 40.2%. 3) The characteristics of health behavior showed that 89.4% of migrant workers had 3 meals, 70.9% of them did not drink alcohol, 73.5% of them did not smoke. 4) As a characteristic of health status, 71.8% of them perceived of their health. 76.1% thought that they had no illness before coming Korea. Among them who recognized their illness, those who had problem in circulatory system was 35.3%, respiratory system ENT 19.1% and nervous system 19.1%.66.2% of those having illness had already had sickness when coming to Korea. 5) During last one month, 79.2% of them were known as ones having no illness. Among the sick, those who had problem in circulatory system was 31.6%, nervous system 23.7% and respiratory system 21.1%. 60.3% of the sick were not cured at that time. 6) Sorting the symptom of those who visited free medical check up, dental care was 24.2%, orthopedic 14.0% and digestive system 13.8%. Teethache was 34.4%, stomach problem 11.6%, upper respiratory inflammation 10.2% and back pain 5.9%. Averagely they visited free medical check up 1-2 times. According to symptom, epilepsy 25.5 times, heart and vascular disease 9 times, constipation 2.8%, neurosis 2.38 times and stomach problem 2.34 times. 7) The most frequently visited medical service by migrant workers was hospital. The most mentioned reason was good healing as 36.3%. The medical service satisfied migrant workers mostly was hospital as 64.3%. The reason of satisfaction was also good healing as 45.9%. 8) 77.2% of respondents did not spend money for medical check. Average monthly medical cost was 25,100 Won, 3.7% of income. Those who had no medical security was 73.4%. In their case, 67.7% got discount from hospital or support from working place and religious organization. 9) As for the difference of medical utilization according for the characteristics of migrant workers, legal workers and no-Korean speaker used hospital more frequently. 10) Those who were satisfied most of all with the service of hospital were female workers, hinduists and buddhists, legal workers or manufacture workers. 11) Christians, those who have 3 meals or recognize themselves as healthy ones mostly had no illness. As a result, the most of migrant workers in Korea are from Asia. They are good educated but are working in manufacturing and illegal. Their average income is under 700,000 Won which in not enough for medical cost. They have no medical security and medical fee is supported by religious organization or discounted. Considering these facts the medical policy by government is to be established.

  • Purpose : this study purposed to investigate school nursing phenomena in Korea by applying ICNP, the international standard nursing classification system developed by ICN, and to compare school nursing phenomena at elementary, middle and high schools. Method : The subjects of this study are 110 nursing teachers from 82 elementary schools, 16 middle schools, and 12 high schools. In the survey, subjects were asked to score the degree to which phenomena and characteristics of Korean school nursing, identified in previous research, on a 5 point scale. Questionnaires were distributed and recovered by mail and email. The period of data collection was 6 months from July to December 2003. The general characteristics of schools and nursing teachers were represented with frequencies and percentages, the phenomena and characteristics of school nursing with the mean score of the questions, and the phenomena school nursing by school grade with ANOVA and Duncan's posterior analysis. Results : 1) As for the characteristics of schools according to school nursing phenomena related to human behavior, the mean score of questions on inadequate stress management was highest at 3.24 points followed by the score on inadequate weight control (3.23), inadequate eating habits (3.22), the risk of spine disorders (2.68), inadequate emergency management (2.62), inadequate response to sex -related problems (2.19), and smoking and drug use (1.85). 2) As for the characteristics of schools according to school nursing phenomena related to human function, the mean score of questions on oral health management was highest at 3.11 points followed by the score on the risk of digestive system disorder (2.87), improper eyesight management (2.81), the risk of respiratory system disorders (2.75), lack of sexual identity (2.52), and inadequate contagious disease control (2.12). 3) As for the mean score according to school nursing phenomena related to environment, the score of the risk of accidents in classroom was highest as 2.68 points followed by the score of the risk of accidents around the school (2.65), maladjustment to school (2.62), the risk of accidents outside the classroom (2.43), inadequate learning environment (1.83), the risk of exposure to socially and physically harmful environment factors (1.82), and inadequate waste disposal (1.77). 4) This study tested the mean scores of questions corresponding to each school nursing phenomenon in order to see if there is a difference in the school nursing phenomenon among elementary, middle and high schools, and performed Duncan's posterior comparison for school nursing phenomena. A significant difference was found at p<.1. According to the results, school nursing phenomena found to be significantly different among elementary, middle and high schools was smoking and drug use (p<.05), which appeared more problematic in high school than in elementary school. phenomena such as inadequate eating habits, inadequate weight control, inadequate response to sex-related problems and inadequate waste disposal were also found to be statistically different at p<.1; however, according to the result of Duncan's posterior comparison, no difference was found among groups in improper eating habits and improper response to sex-related problems, and a significant difference was found between middle and high schools in inadequate weight control and inadequate waste disposal. Conclusion: Based on the results of this study, it is necessary to plan school health projects focused on the characteristic school nursing phenomena that had high scores and to develop and execute school healthe projects in accordance with the characteristics of elementary, middle and high schools. Considering that the scores of school nursing phenomena related to human behavior are high, it is necessary to introduce school health promotion projects in a systematic way.

  • 목 적 : 1990년대 중반 이후 의료계 내부적 혹은 외부적 변화와 함께 신생아 출산율이 급감한 2000년대 이후의 소아 응급 환자들의 경향의 변화를 알아보고자 하였다. 방 법 : 2001년 1월 1일부터 2002년 12월 31일까지 영남대학교 의료원 응급의료센터를 방문한 15세 미만의 소아 7,034명을 대상으로 응급의무기록지와 입원병록지를 근거로 성별, 연령별, 월별, 계절별, 요일별, 방문 시간대별, 질병 종류별 및 최종 진료 형태별로 분류하여 보았다. 결 과 : 전체 응급실 방문 환자 45,190명 중 소아 환자는 7,034명으로 전체의 약 15.6%를 차지하였으며, 남녀 비는 1.6 : 1였다. 연령대별로는 1세 이상부터 3세 미만이 1,893명(26.9%)으로 가장 많았으며, 3세 이상부터 6세 미만 1,587명(22.6%), 1개월 이상부터 1세 미만 1,196명(17.0%) 순이었다. 계절별로는 봄철과 여름철이 많았는데, 월별로 6월 790명(19.7%), 5월 745명(18.7%), 7월 712명(18.5%) 순이었다. 요일별로는 일요일이 1,747명(25.5%)으로 가장 많았으며, 시간대별로는 20시부터 24시 사이가 2,029명(23.8%)으로 가장 많았다. 질병별 분포는 사고 및 중독이 2.141명(30.4%), 호흡기계 질환 1,607명(22.8%), 소화기계 질환 1,026명(14.6%), 증상, 징후 및 불확실한 병태 863명(12.3%), 신경계 질환 399명(5.7%) 등의 순이었다. 입원치료는 2,109명으로 전체 응급실 방문 소아의 30.0%를 차지하였다. 결 론 : 2000년대 이후 종합병원 응급실 방문 환자들의 분포는 이전의 보고들에 비하여 소아 환자의 비율이 현저하게 줄어 들었는데, 이것은 의료전달체계의 변화, 출산율의 감소 및 소아과 전문 병원의 증설 등의 영향에 기인할 것으로 추정된다. 소아 환자의 질병별 분포에서는 다른 보고들과 유사하게 사고 및 중독의 비율이 가장 높았으나, 급성비인두염이나 급성장염과 같은 1차 진료기관에서도 얼마든지 처치가 가능한 비응급 질환의 비율이 여전히 높은 것을 확인하였다. 이는 소아 환자들에 있어서 3차 진료기관 응급실은 여전히 일차 진료기관으로서의 불필요한 역할을 담당하고 있어, 국민들의 의식 계몽과 함께 의료 체계의 개선 등이 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

  • Helicobacter pylori는 만성 위염, 소화성 궤양, 위암의 중요한 역학적 인자중 하나이다. H. pylori의 독성인자중 CagL은 숙주 세포와 H. pylori의 제 4형 분비기관(Type 4 secretion system)을 연결하는 adhesin으로 작용하는 섬모 단백질로 H. pylori가 발병하는데 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이번 연구는 저빌에 H. pylori를 감염시킨 동물 모델을 이용하여 CagL 재조합 단백질을 면역화시켰을 때 나타나는 효과를 평가하였다. 재조합 CagL은 클론되었고, 과발현시켜 정제하여 준비하였다 저빌은 H. pylori 감염 대조군과 H. pylori 감염 CagL 재조합 단백질 접종군으로 분류하였고, 접종시 알루미늄 애쥬번트를 사용하였다. 일주일 간격으로 4회 근육내 접종하였고, 마지막 접종 일주일 후, 모든 저빌에 H. pylori 7.13 균주를 $1{\times}10^9\;bacteria/500{\mu}l$ 농도로 위내 투여하였다. H. pylori 감염 6주째 모든 저빌을 희생하여 혈청 IgG 반응평가를 위한 ELISA를 실시하였고, 위에서는 집락화된 H. pylori의 수평가, 병리조직학적 평가 및 사이토카인 유전자발현을 조사하였다. CagL 재조합 단백질접종 일주일 후부터 H. pylori 감염 CagL 재조합 단백질 접종군의 혈청내 IgG 항체형성이 유의적으로 증가하였다. 위에서의 집락화된 세균수는 두군의 차이가 없었다. 저빌 체중에 대한 위무게 비율는 H. pylori 감염 CagL 재조합 단백질 접종군이 유의적으로 감소하였으나 병리조직학적 평가에서는 유의적인 차이는 확인하지 못하였다. 위에서의 IL-$1{\beta}$와 KC (IL-8 homologues)의 유전자발현 정도도 두 군사이에 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 이번 결과는 CagL 재조합 단백질의 접종은 IgG 항체형성은 효과적으로 자극하였지만 면역화된 숙주에서 세균 집락화의 감소 및 병변형성의 방어까지는 유도하지 못한 것으로 나타났으며, 앞으로 H. pylori 감염에 대해 유효한 면역 반응 및 질병 방어 효과를 나타내기 위해서 CagL을 포함한 다른 종류의 재조합 항원 사용 및 보조적으로 전신 면역 및 점막 면역을 효과적으로 유도하기 위해 안정성있는 애쥬번트의 사용을 고려해야 할 것으로 사료된다.

  • Lead is ubiquitous in the human environment as a result of industrialization. China's rapid industrialization and traffic growth have increased the potential for lead emissions. Lead poisoning in children is one of the most common public health problems today, and it is entirely preventable. Children are more vulnerable to lead pollution and lead in their bodies can affect their nervous, circulatory, and digestive systems. Children are exposed to lead from different sources (such as paint, gasoline, and solder) and through different pathways (such as air, food, water, dust, and soil). Although all children are exposed to some lead from food, air, dust, and soil, some children are exposed to high dose sources of lead. Significant sources of lead for China's children include industrial emissions (often close to housing and schools), leaded gasoline, and occupational exposure that occurs when parents wear lead-contaminated clothing home from work, burning of coal for home heat and cooking, contaminated food, and some traditional medicines. To assess the blood lead level in children in China, a large-scale study was conducted in 19 cities among 9 provinces during 1997 to 2000. There were 6502 children, aged 3-5 years, were recruited in the study The result indicates that the mean blood lead level was 8.83ug/dl 3-5 year old living in city area. The mean blood lead level of boys was higher than that of girls (9.1l ug/dl vs 8.73ug/dl). Almost 30 percent childrens blood lead level exceeded 10ug/dl. The average blood lead level was higher than that of in 1985 (8.83ug/dl vs 8.lug/dl). An epidemiological study was carried on the children living around the cottage industries recycling the lead from battery. Nine hundreds fifty nine children, aged 5-12 years, living in lead polluted villages where the lead smelters located near the residential area and 207 control children live in unpolluted area were recruited in the study. The lead levels in air, soil, drinking water and crops were measured. The blood lead and ZnPP level were tested for all subjects. The results show that the local environment was polluted. The lead levels both in the air and crops were much higher than that of in control area. In the polluted area, the average blood level was 49.6ug/dl (rang 19.5-89.3ug/dl). Whereas, in the unpolluted area, the average blood level was 12.4ug/dl (rang 4.6-24.8ug/dl). This study indicates that in some countryside area, some cottage industries induce seriously lead pollution and cause children health problem. For the introducing of unleaded gasoline in some large cities, such as Beijing and Shanghai, the blood lead level showed a declined trend since 1997. By 2000, the use of leaded gasoline in motor vehicles has been prohibited in China. The most recent data available show that levels of lead in blood among children in Shanghai decreased from 8.3ug/dl in 1997 to 7.6ug/dl in 1999. The prevalence rate of children lead poisoning (blood lead >10ug/dl) was also decreased from 37.8% to 24.8%. In children living in downtown area, the blood lead level reduced dramatically. To explore the relationship between gene polymorphisms and individual susceptibility of lead poisoning, a molecular epidemiological study was conducted among children living in lead polluted environment. The result showed that the subjects with ALAD2 allele has higher ZPP level, and the subjects with VDR B allele has larger head circumference than only with b allele. In the present study, we demonstrated that ALAD genotypes modify lead effects on heme metabolism and VDR gene variants influence the skull development in highly exposed children. The polymorphism of ALAD and VDR genes might be the molecular inherited factor modifying the susceptibility of lead poisoning. Recently, Chinese government pays more attention to lead pollution and lead poisoning in children problem. The leaded gasoline was prohibited used in motor vehicles since 2000. The government has decided to have a clampdown on the high-polluted lead smelters for recycling the lead from battery in countryside. It is hopeful that the risk of lead poisoning in children will be decreased in the further

  • 정신신체질환은 개개인의 서로 다른 성격, 정서적 스트레스에 대한 반응과 기질적인 요소 등이 함께 반응하여 소화기계, 순환기계, 호흡기계 및 근골격계 등에 수많은 질환을 야기하며, 그 중에 만성통증도 역시 포함한다. 구강안면 영역의 증상으로 내원하는 이유 중 가장 많은 비율을 차지하는 것은 통증이며 증상에 영향을 주는 기여요인은 생물학적 요인, 행동요인, 환경요인, 사회요인, 정서요인, 인지요인 등을 포함한다. 이러한 기여요인은 개인의 성격, 인성에 좌우되어 증상의 경로에 영향을 미치게 된다. 통증에 있어 수면은 하나의 기여요인으로 작용하며, 통증은 수면장애를 가져오거나 악화시키기도 하며, 수면장애 역시 통증을 악화시킬 수 있다. 수면의 질의 저하는 정서적 스트레스를 가속화 시킬 수 있는 한 요인으로 작용할 수 있다. 이에 구강안면 영역에 증상을 보이는 환자에게 비교적 정확하고 간단하게 시행할 수 있는 수면의 질 평가 및 정신 검사를 필히 시행하여 평가해야 한다. 본 연구는 PSQI를 통한 수면의 질 평가와 간이정신진단검사(SCL-90-R)를 비교 평가하여 수면과 정서적, 심리적 상태와의 관계를 규명하고자 하였으며, 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. poor sleeper 는 남자가 18명, 여자가 1명이었으며, PSQI 총수면 지수는 남자에서 $6.11{\pm}2.38$, 여자에서 $4.67{\pm}2.18$로 나타났다. SCL-90-R 지수는 남녀간 차이를 보이지 않았고 poor sleeper에서 신체화(SOM), 강박증(O-C), 대인예민성(I-S), 불안(ANX), 공포불안(PHOB), 정신증(PSY)에서 유의성 있게 높은 평균치를 보였으며 전체 심도지수(GSI), 표출증상합계(PST)가 유의성 있게 높았다. 또한 수면의 질에 따른 SCL-90-R의 T-점수는 주관적 수면의 질이 나쁠수록 강박증(O-C), 대인 예민성(I-S)에서, 수면장애가 심할수록 편집증(PAR), 정신증(PSY), 표출증상합계(Positive symptom total, PST)가, 주간수면장애에서는 우울(DEP), 불안(ANX), 적대감(HOS), 공포불안(PHOB), 편집증(PAR), 전체 심도지수(GSI)에서 유의하게 높은 평균치를 보였다. 이와 같이 수면의 질과 정서적 상태는 서로 밀접한 연관성을 지닌다고 할 수 있으며, 이는 구강안면 영역의 만성 통증에 영향을 미치리라 생각된다. 이에 구강안면통증을 다루는 임상가들은 환자의 수면의 질과 정서적 상태에 대해 적절히 평가하는 것이 반드시 필요하며, 추후 구강안면통증에 있어 수면과 정서적, 심리적 인성관계에 대한 연구가 더 필요하리라 사료된다.

  • 인터루킨 27(IL-27)은 인터루킨 12계열의 이성이량체 사이토카인으로 EBI3와 p28의 두 서브유니트로 구성 되어 있다. 인터루킨 27은 Th1 개시의 초기 조절에 관여하는 사이토카인으로 Th2 인자인 GATA-3의 작용을 억제하는 역할을 한다. 이 사이토카인은 $CD4^+$ T 림프구와 자연살해세포에서 아주 높게 발현하는 수용체(WSX-1)에 의하여 매개된다. 우리들은 사람의 IL-27p28유전자에서 네 개의 유전자다형성 부위를 찾아서 이들 유전자다형성이 기관지 천식의 감수성에 영향을 미치는 것을 보고한 바 있다. 이 연구에서는 IL-27p28 유전자의 유전자다형성이 알레르기성 비염의 감수성에 영향을 미치는 지를 알아보기 위하여 이들 다형성에 있어서 알레르기성 비염환자 군과 정상인군 사이의 유전자형 및 대립형질의 빈도를 비교분석 하였다. 비록 알레르기성 비염환자 군에서 IL-27p28 유전자의 유전자다형성의 유전자형 및 대립형질의 빈도의 차는 정상인 군의 그것과 큰 차이가 없었으나, g.2905T>G SNP에서 두 그룹간에 주목할만한 차이(P=0.037)를 발견하였다. 이 결과는 IL-27p28 유전자의 g.2905T>G 유전자 형성이 알레르기성 비염환자에서 IgE의 생산에 영향을 준다는 것을 암시한다.

  • A study was conducted to see the effect of dietary incorporation of alkali (1.5% NaOH, w/w) processed solvent extracted karanj cake (SKC) supplemented with methionine on growth performance, humoral immune response and carcass characteristics of broiler chickens from 0 to 8 weeks of age. One hundred and twenty, day- old broiler chicks were wing banded, vaccinated against Marek' disease and distributed in a completely randomized design (CRD) into 3 groups of 40 chicks each, which was further replicated to 4 and fed on diet containing soybean meal and those of test groups were fed diets containing alkali (1.5% NaOH) treated SKC partially replacing soybean meal nitrogen of reference diet (12.5%) without or with supplementation of methionine (0.2%). Individual body weight of chicks and replicate-wise feed intakes were recorded at weekly intervals throughout the experimental period. Feed consumption from 1 to 14, 28, 42 and 56 d of age was recorded for each replicate and feed conversion efficiency (weight gain/feed intake) for the respective period was calculated. Mortality was monitored on daily basis. On 28$^{th}$ day of experimental feeding, two birds of each replicate in each dietary group (8 birds/diet) were inoculated with 0.1 ml of a 1.0% suspension of sheep red blood cells (SRBC) and the antibody titre (log 2) was measured after 5 days by the microtitre haemmagglutination procedure. After 42 days of experimental feeding, a retention study of 4 days (43-47 d) duration was conducted on all birds to determine the retention of various nutrients such as DM, N, Ca, P and GE. On 43$^{rd}$ day of experimental feeding, one representative bird from each replicate of a dietary treatment (4/dietary group) was sacrificed, after fasting for two hours with free access to water, through cervical dislocation to observe the weight of dressed carcass, primal cuts (breast, thigh, drumstick, back, neck and wing), giblet (liver, heart and gizzard), abdominal fat and digestive organs. The body weight gain of chicks fed reference diet and those fed diet incorporated with NaOH treated SKC (12.5% replacement) with or without methionine supplementation was comparable during 0 to 4 weeks of age. However, dietary incorporation of alkali processed SKC replacing 12.5% nitrogen moiety of soybean meal resulted in growth retardation, subsequently as evidenced by significantly (p<0.05) lowered body weight gain during 0 to 6 weeks of age in birds fed diet incorporated with alkali processed SKC at 6.43% without methionine as compared to those supplemented with methionine or reference diet. Dietary incorporation of alkali (1.5% NaOH) processed SKC replacing 12.5% of soybean meal nitrogen in the diet of broiler chickens had no adverse effect on feed conversion ratio during all the weeks of experimental feeding. The humoral immune response (HIR) as measured by the antibody titre in response to SRBC inoculation was comparable among all the dietary groups. No significant difference in the intake and retention of DM, N, Ca, P or GE was noted among the chicks fed reference and alkali processed SKC incorporated diets with or without methionine supplementation. None of the carcass traits varied significantly due to dietary variations, except the percent weight of liver and giblet. The percent liver weight was significantly (p<0.05) higher in the birds fed diet incorporated with alkali processed SKC as compared to that in other two groups. Thus solvent extracted karanj cake could be incorporated after alkali (1.5% NaOH, w/w) processing at an enhanced level of 6.43%, replacing 12.5% of soybean meal nitrogen, in the broiler diets up to 4 weeks of age, beyond which the observed growth depression on this diet could be alleviated by 0.2% methionine supplementation.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the objectives and contents of basic medical sciences at department of nursing in college of nursing, and junior college of nursing, thus ultimately providing the basic data to standardize the curriculum of the basic medical sciences in nursing education. Seventy eight professors who were in charge of teaching basic medical sciences to at 22 colleges of nursing/ department of nursing, and 20 junior colleges of nursing responded to the questionnaires that consisted of the questions regarding objectives and contents, of basic medical sciences. Based on the description of objectives, the description related to nursing, nurse, nursing science was cathegorized as on objective applicable to nursing science, the description related to medicine or clinical medicine as medical model, the description without description related to medicine was cathegorized as knowledge acquisition. The number of schools corresponding to each category were summerized in descending order.
