본 연구는 노인인구의 급속한 증가에 따른 만성질환자 증가 추이를 고려하여, 만성질환에 의한 정신건강 악화에 대해 다루고자 하였다. 이를 위해, 한국인의 사망원인 중에서 상위를 차지하는 5가지의 주요 만성질환(당뇨병, 암, 만성폐질환, 심장질환, 뇌혈관 질환)을 선정하였다. 1-2차년도 고령화연구패널조사(KLoSA)에 참여한 45세 이상의 중고령자를 대상으로, 만성질환 진단자로의 전이와 우울 수준이 어떠한 관계가 있는지 살펴보았다. 연구방법은 SPSS 25.0을 사용한 다중회귀분석을 실시하여, 만성질환자로 전이한 경우 및 5가지 각 질환별 전이한 경우가 우울에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 분석하였다. 본 연구결과에 따르면, 만성질환 진단자로 전이는 우울수준을 유의미하게 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. 질환별로 살펴보았을 때, 암, 만성 폐질환, 뇌혈관 질환이 진단된 중고령자는 우울 수준이 높아졌으나, 당뇨병과 심장질환이 진단된 경우는 우울에 유의한 영향을 미친다는 증거가 발견되지 않았다. 본 연구결과를 바탕으로 만성질환자로의 전이와 우울관리에 대한 논의가 이루어졌다.

Objectives: To determine the effects of Korean medicine on behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) of an Alzheimer's disease (AD) patient. Methods: A 85-year old female patient diagnosed with AD was treated with herbal medicine formula Chungsimyeonja-tang (淸心蓮子湯), Woohwangchungsim-won (牛黃淸心元), and acupuncture. Korean version of Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE-K) scores were used at baseline and post treatment as outcome measures to evaluate clinical symptoms of the patient. Results: Improvements in MMSE-K post treatment scores were observed compare to those at baseline. BPSD were also alleviated. Such changes were visually noticeable. Conclusions: Herbal medicine and acupuncture treatment were effective in alleviating symptoms of AD. Further studies with a larger sample size and randomized clinical trials are needed to obtain more reliable and valid treatment outcomes.

Purpose: This study was done to investigate the prevalence of job stress and musculoskeletal symptoms, and to identify the factors that affect work-related musculoskeletal symptoms of the 119 Emergency medical technicians (EMT). Method: From August 26 to September 10, 2010, the data were obtained from 456 EMT working in Daejeon city or Choongnam province. For data analysis, descriptive statistics and multiple logistic regression were performed using SAS version 9.1. Results: Physical environment, job demand, interpersonal conflict, and occupational climate were stressful to 119 EMT. The prevalence of musculoskeletal symptoms of female EMT was higher than those of the male EMT's. After gender and age were adjusted, there ware significant relationships between musculoskeletal symptoms and some risk factors including occupational class, hours of intensive musculoskeletal use, previous injury or work-related injury, physical burden, and job stress. Overall, a higher degree of job stress increased musculoskeletal symptoms. Conclusion: Job stress is a major cause of musculoskeletal symptoms. To prevent and manage musculoskeletal disease of 119 EMT, there is a need to develop a management program for musculoskeletal symptoms to reduce occupational stress, considering gender differences.

The present study describes the bacterial blight of walnut, caused by Xanthomonas arboricola pv. juglandis (Xaj) in the northern Gyeongbuk province, Korea. Disease symptoms that appear very similar to anthracnose symptoms were observed in walnut trees in June 2016. Pathogens were isolated from disease infected leaves, fruits, shoots, bud, flower bud of walnut, and cultured onto yeast dextrose carbonate agar plates. Isolated bacteria with bacterial blight symptoms were characterized for their nutrient utilization profiles using Biolog GN2 and Vitek 2. In addition, isolates were subjected to physiological, biochemical, and morphological characterizations. Furthermore, isolates were identified using 16S rDNA sequence analysis, and multi-locus sequence analysis using atpD, dnaK, efp, and rpoD. To confirm pathogenicity, leaves, fruits, and stems of 3-year-old walnut plants were inoculated with bacterial pathogen suspensions as a foliar spray. One week after inoculation, the gray spots on leaves and yellow halos around the spots were developed. Fruits and stems showed browning symptoms. The pathogen Xaj was re-isolated from all symptomatic tissues to fulfill Koch's postulates, while symptoms were not appeared on control plants. On the other hand, the symptoms were very similar to the symptoms of anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides. When walnut plants were inoculated with combined pathogens of Xaj and C. gloeosporioides, disease symptoms were greater in comparison with when inoculated alone. Xaj population size was more in the month of April than March due to their dormancy in March, and sensitive to antibiotics such as oxytetracycline and streptomycin, while resistant to copper sulfate.

The investigators conducted this survey to find out prevalence of diseases and symptoms of the 812 nurses who were working at the 12 Seoul city and University's hospital in Seoul by retrospective study The results of survey were summarized as follows: 1. Distribution of Prevalence Rate of Diseases and Symptoms. 1) An average prevalence rate of diseases and Symptoms of the nurses/100 persons was 64.3 cases at Present October I.1972 2) The total number of diseases and Symptoms was 522 cases at present Oct, I 1972 for the survey nurses. The prevalence rate of following diseases/100 persons were as, foot sore-11, 3. myopia-9.7, neuralgia-9.6, anemia-9.1, insomnia-8.6 cases and the corrected number percent of prevalence rate of diseases and symptoms of the above diseases into 100 denominator were as follows : foot sore-17.6% , myopia-15.4%, neuralgia-14.9%, anemia-14.2% insomnia-13.2%. 3) The prevalence rate of diseases and symptoms/100 person for the age group of 45 and over was 140.0 cases and the age of 35-39 years was 27.3 cases. 4) The prevalence rate of diseases and symptoms/100 persons by the rotation system of nurses'duty/day were as follows: two shift system rotation-86.7 cases, three shift system rotation-67.9 cases and day duty only was 56.2 cases, 5) The prevalence rate of diseases and symptoms/100 person by the basic nursing education background seemed to be lower occurrence against to the higher education and it was 94.4 cases at the Technical Nursing High School graduates. 6) The prevalence rate of diseases and symptoms/100 persons by the marital status of the nurses were as follows; single-64.8 cases, married-48, 7 cases, and widowed-28.6 cases.

Behcet's disease is a systemic disease affecting multiple organs including the central nervous system. Neuro-Behcet's disease was regarded as relatively rare, but thanks to the development of diagnostic tools, more and more cases are being reported. We are reporting a case of neuro-Behcet's disease in which the patient displayed paraparesis, dysarthria and involuntary tremor as neurologic symptoms. The patient's brain MRI showed cerebellar atrophy, and a spinal cord MRI failed to reveal any significant lesions. The patient experienced a couple of fever attacks during hospitalization, which were managed adequately by herbal medicines. Her main neurological symptoms such as paraparesis were, however, grossly unchanged at discharge.

This paper designs a disease prediction algorithm to diagnose migraine among the types of diseases in advance by learning algorithms using machine learning-based time series analysis. This study utilizes patient data statistics, such as electroencephalogram activity, to design a prediction algorithm to determine the onset signals of migraine symptoms, so that patients can efficiently predict and manage their disease. The results of the study evaluate how accurate the proposed prediction algorithm is in predicting migraine and how quickly it can predict the onset of migraine for disease prevention purposes. In this paper, a machine learning algorithm is used to analyze time series of data indicators used for migraine identification. We designed an algorithm that can efficiently predict and manage patients' diseases by quickly determining the onset signaling symptoms of disease development using existing patient data as input. The experimental results show that the proposed prediction algorithm can accurately predict the occurrence of migraine using machine learning algorithms.
