  • 본 연구에서는 해조류 섭취와 염증과 관련된 유전자의 변이 및 다유전자 위험 점수 간의 상호작용이 염증에 미치는 영향을 확인하였다. 남성과 여성 모두 PRS가 높은 그룹에서 염증 발생 위험은 증가하였다. 본 연구에서는 해조류의 섭취가 염증과 직접적인 관련이 있는 것으로 밝혀지지 않았지만, 해조류 섭취와 다유전자 위험 점수 변이 사이에선 통계적으로 유의한 결과를 보였다. 특히, 낮은 해조류의 섭취는 높은 다유전자 위험 점수를 가진 여성에서 고염증 발생 위험이 높았다. 따라서 본 연구결과는 한국인에게서 작용하는 염증 및 염증질환에 대한 유전자 소인을 파악할 수 있고 면역 체계의 균형 및 건강 유지에 새로운 중재방안을 제시할 수 있음을 기대한다.

  • 경기도에 거주하는 60세 이상의 농촌 여성노인 133명을 대상으로 건강상태, 영양소 섭취실태 및 식습관을 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 조사대상자의 연령은 60~69세가 41.4%, 70~79세가 48.1%였고 가족수는 3명 이상이 76.0%, 2명인 경우가 20.9%, 노인 혼자 살고 있는 경우는 13.2%를 차지하였다. 학력 정도는 무학이 72.4%, 국졸 26.8%로 학력수준이 매우 낮음을 보였다. 2. CMI를 이용한 건강상태 조사결과 총45점 만점 중 평균 $29.1\pm6.8$점이었으며, 11~25점이 30.1%, 26~33점이 40.6%, 33~44점이 29.3%였다. CMI 각 항목에 대한 호소율은 관절 및 골격근에 대한 증상이 68.8%로 가장 높았고 그 다음은 피로감, 정신적 불만, 이비인후계, 신경계의 순이었다. 가족원수, 교육수준 및 영농참여에 따른 CMI값은 큰 차이가 없었고, 연령의 경우 65세 미만에서는 CMI값이 낮은 경우가 44.0%로 가장 많았으며, 65~79는 중간상태가 가장 많은 반면 80세 이상에서는 CMI값이 높게 나타났다. 소득수준이 높거나 낮은 경우에 중간인 경우보다 CMI가 낮았으며 조사대상자가 스스로 느끼는 계층의식과의 관계에서는 잘 살고 있다고 생각하는 경우가 못산다고 생각하는 경우보다 약간 높은 CMI값을 보였다. 3. 조사대상자의 평균 영양소 섭취량은 thiamin과 ascorbic acid를 제외하고는 모두 권장량에 미달되었다. 에너지는 권장량의 84.1%, 단백질은 67.0%, riboflavin은 90.1%를 섭취하고 있었으며, vitamin A는 권장량의 49.1%로 제일 낮은 섭취를 보였고, 그 다음으로 칼슘은 권장량의 55.1%를 섭취하였다. 영양소 섭취량과 일반적 특성과의 관계에서는 독신인 경우에 에너지, 단백질, ascorbic acid의 섭취량이 유의적으로 낮게 나타났다. CMI값을 low, middle, high의 3 group으로 나누어 영양소 섭취량과의 관계를 살펴본 결과 칼슘을 제외한 다른 영양소들에서 low group과 다른 두 group사이에 유의적인 차이 (p<0.05)를 보였으며, riboflavin은 low group과 middle group 사이에서만 유의적인 차이가 나타났다. 또한 대상자의 CMI값과 영양소 섭취량과의 상관관계는 칼슘을 제외한 모든 영양소에서 p<0.001로 높게 나타났다. 4. 식습관 조사결과 식사의 규칙성은 응답자의 84.8%가 항상 규칙적으로 식사하는 것으로 나타났으며 결식을 하는 경우의 해당 끼니는 점심 52.4%, 아침 28.6%, 저녁 19.0%의 순이었고 결식을 하는 이유로는 식욕이 없어서가 40.9%로 가장 많았다. 음주율은 28.8%로 주로 막걸리, 소주 위주였으며 흡연정도는 19.2%였다. 음식의 짠맛에 대한 기호도는 싱겁게 먹거나(43.4%), 약간 싱겁게 먹는 것(25.6%)으로 나타났으며 생선과 육류에 대한 선호도는 육류보다 생선을 약간 더 많이 섭취하고 있는 것으로 나타났으나 두 가지 모두를 섭취하지 않는 사람도 23.5%나 차지하여 단백질 식품의 질적인 문제를 가지고 있는 것으로 사료되었다. 영양제 복용은 대상자의 38.3%가 실시하고 있었다. 이상의 결과에서와 같이 농촌여성노인이 가지고 있는 건강문제 중 관절 및 골격근 문제가 가장 심각하며, 영양소 섭취량 중 retinol, calcium, protein의 섭취가 현저히 부족하였다. 일반적인 특성과 식습관은 건강상태에 유의적인 영향을 미치지 않은 반면 CMI 값과 영양소 섭취량과의 상관관계가 유의적으로 높았으며, 특히 독신 여성노인에 있어서 영양소 섭취량이 건강상태에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 복잡한 문제를 안고 있는 농촌여성 노인의 건강상태 및 영양소 섭취량을 증가시키기 위한 방안 마련이 시급하다고 본다.

  • Purpose. The purposes of this study were to examine the effectiveness of a behavioral intervention program combining pelvic floor muscle exercise with bladder training for urinary incontinence and also to conduct follow-up assessment after self-training. Methods. This study was conducted using a non-equivalent control group, pretest-posttest design. The subjects were 60 middle-aged women(control group, n=30; intervention group, n=30) who experienced an episode of urinary incontinence at least once a week. The program was run over a 4 week period (once a week) and composed of urinary incontinence education, pelvic floor muscle exercise, and bladder training. Results. Overall, there was a significant difference in urinary incontinence symptoms and psycho-social well-being related to urinary incontinence between the treatment and control group. Of the variables, weekly leakage frequencies, leakage amounts on each occasion, leakage index, frequencies of nocturia, and quality of life were significantly different between the groups. Follow-up assessment (9th week) indicated that overall incontinence symptoms and psycho-social well-being were significantly different between the posttest and follow-up assessments. Most variables of incontinence symptoms and psycho-social well-being were significantly improved at follow-up assessment versus posttest. Conclusions. The program was voerall effective in terms of relieving symptoms and improving psych-social well-being related to urinary incontinence, and this effect continued after a 4-weeks self-training period. In the respect that this is a community-based application study, the results can be meaningful and applicable.

  • Purpose: This study was designed to identify meaningful themes related to the recognition of lifestyle risk factors and barriers in seeking treatment following an acute event of first-time acute myocardial infarction. Methods: A methodological mixed method of thematic content analysis and a quantitative analysis was used. The sample consisted of 120 male patients < 65 years of age who agreed to be in the study were interviewed using a semistructured during 2008-2009. Data were analyzed according to the procedure of thematic content analysis and the meaningful themes were coded into SPSS data for quantitative analysis. Results: Pre-hospital delay greater than three hours reported by 58.3% (n=70) of the sample and similarly 63.3% had no recognition about their symptoms as cardiac in origin. The mean number of risk factors was $3.9{\pm}1.8$ out of 11 when lifestyle and psychosocial factors were included. From the interview data among the 70 patients delayed greater than three hours, thirty-five themes categorized into 12 main themes influenced the delayed decision which was identified according to personal-cognitive, socio-cultural, and contextual factors. Conclusion: Health care providers should consider these themes in designing individual interventions to make lifestyle changes and to facilitate more prompt decisions to seek care.

  • Hyalinizing trabecular adenoma of the thyroid gland is a rare benign neoplasm predominantly diagnosed in middle-aged women. Carney et al. first described this entity that may mimic paraganglioma, medullary carcinoma and papillary carcinoma in 1987. We describe cytologic and histopathologic features of a case of hyalinizing trabecular adenoma combined with occult papillary carcinoma in the opposite lobe. A 55-year-old woman presented with nontender palpable mass of the right neck for 6 months. The aspirate was cellular and contained small clusters and sheets of epithelial cells with abundant filamentous, vacuolated, and ill-defined cytoplasm. The nuclei were slightly pleomorphic and showed nuclear overlapping, nuclear grooves, and intranuclear cytoplasmic inclusions. Histologic examination showed hyalinizing trabecular adenoma in the right lobe and occult papillary carcinoma in the left lobe.

  • Objectives: The purpose of this study was to identify basic health needs of adult clients to develop a community nursing center model in Seoul. Methods: Data were collected using a questionnaire survey from 894 adults registered at a public health center who were health management members, and visiting 4 community nursing centers, University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee during the period from July 1999 to January 2000. The data were analyzed using frequency, percentile, t-test, and ANOVA. Results: 1) The University of Wisconsin- Milwaukee School of Nursing has a long tradition of developing 4 community nursing centers with innovative health care programs. CNCs integrate the ability to implement and test effective intervention strategies with education, research, and practices of nursing students and faculty. They were designed to enhance the health status and quality of life for urban communities through the development of productive, outcome focused, collaborative partnerships among UWM-Nursing faculties and staff, other health and human service providers, consumers, and policy makers. It links the financial resources between UWM and 9 voluntary agencies and 12 public funding organizations including federal. state, and local governments. 2) Of the total health management members, 37.4% were reported to have at least one type of chronic disease such as hypertension, diabetes, and arthritis. Ten percent of them reported having obesity, and 44.2% reported lack of exercise. The health status of the subjects was within normal range in laboratory tests. However, female subjects showed more significant differences in obesity and cholesterol levels than male subjects. The subjects, who were in their 50s, showed more significant differences in obesity, SGOT, SGPT, and cholesterol levels than the subjects in other age groups. Conclusion: A community nursing center needs to be developed, that has a link between the nursing college and the public health center, with partnerships and a multidisciplinary approach. Based on the study results, exercise programs for middle aged adults are considered necessary. In particular, specific exercise programs for pre-menopausal women needs to be implemented in the future to prevent them from developing osteoporosis.

  • Objective : This study was a covariance structural analysis to identify korean medicine health promotion behavior by the general characteristics of the subjects and build a predictive model and theoretical framework based on Pender's health promotion model(1996) and related literature reviews. Method : A hypothetical model was consisted of 8 theoretical variables and 27 measured variables. Related variables included Individual Characteristics and Experience, Behavior-specific cognitions and affect and Behavioral outcome. The data was collected from 802 middle and old-aged people living in Seoul and Gyeong gi province through structured questionnaires by face to face interviews between February and March, 2014. SAS ver. 9.1 and AMOS 18.0 programs were used for the data analysis. Results : Difference in the verification of Korean medicine health promotion behavior by the general characteristics, Older people who are male, with higher economic status, no chronic disease or with diabetes, no smoking, no drinking, with more exercise showed significantly higher scores, but education level has no difference. 15 paths were statistically significant among 16 paths on the direct effect, 6 paths were statistically significant among 9 paths on the indirect effect in the hypothetical model. The greatest impact variable on Korean medicine health promotion behavior was perceived self-esteem. Also, the findings showed that the higher perceived social support, perceived health status, previous Korean medicine health promotion behavior, community environment, perceived benefit and the lower perceived barrier had a significant effect on Korean medicine health promotion behavior. Conclusion : This research model has an empirical validity as the variables of this study verified their effects and significances. Therefore, the understanding of Korean medicine health promotion behavior can be increased and the utilization will be higher when seeking a comprehensive health promotion plan. Also, a strategy can be utilized the strategy for Korean medicine health promotion behavior.

  • Although excessive intake of sodium is known to cause various diseases and threaten public health and policies for reducing overconsumption of sodium are being implemented, the theoretical research on sodium intake is incomplete. This study attempted to provide a policy basis by examining whether or not planned behavior theory, which is a typical health communication theory used to describe health-related behaviors, can be applied to explain sodium intake behavior. Especially, sodium ingestion behaviors were compared using the theory of actions planned for men and women as well as young people, middle-aged, and elderly persons, who are predicted to show differences in eating habits. In this study, questionnaires were prepared to measure the daily eating habits of subjects and subordinate factors of planned behavior theory: behavioral beliefs, outcome expectations, normative beliefs, compliance motivation, and control beliefs. Questionnaires were given to 93 college students and their families. As a result of the difference analysis and path analysis of the questionnaire responses, the following suggestions were obtained. First, age difference is more obvious than sex difference in terms of low salt intentions. For example, older people are healthier than younger people in terms of eating habits and health concerns. Second, the elderly are more likely to practice the low-salt formula when they are provided information on the benefits and effects of the low-salt formula compared to younger ones. Third, systematic efforts are needed to promote a culture that emphasizes the health benefits of a low salt diet rather than providing piecemeal information on the advantages and effects of a low salt diet.
