This study examined drinking status, knowledge regarding drinking, and drinking behaviors between non-risky drinking and risky drinking groups and found out the factors determining risky drinking. Data were collected from 355 college students in Gyeongbuk region by a self-administered questionnaire. T tests, ${\chi}^2$ tests and logistic regression analysis were conducted by SPSS Windows V.20.0. Almost 30% of the respondents were categorized as the risky drinking group. The respondents in the risky drinking group showed greater drinking frequency per month, subjective drinking quantity, frequency of resolution not to drinking per month, and drinking expenditure than the non-risky drinking group. There was no statistically significant difference in the percentage of correct answers for knowledge regarding drinking between non-risky drinking group and risky drinking group. However, the respondents in the risky drinking group showed more undesirable drinking behaviors than the non-risky drinking group. Finally, according to the result of logistic regression analysis of the factors determining risky drinking, monthly allowance, major, circle activity status, drinking frequency per month, drinking motive and drinking behaviors were significant.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the childcare support demonstration services and direct policy. The participants for the study were three childcare (IDOLBOMI), three parents who were provided with IDOLBOMI, two practitioners, and three professors related to IDOLBOMI. The data was collected by interview and a phone survey and analyzed qualitatively. The results and several suggestions were follows: First, IDOLBOMI loved to take care of children, felt proud of the job, and thought the work was worthy. The result can help future IDOLBOMI when they are recruited and trained; Second, IDOLBOMI wanted income security at least, which means that the basic activity fee for the IDOLBOMI should be compensated by government; Third, most of the parents who experienced the service were generally satisfied with that, but they wanted the quality of nutrition, hygiene and the quality of play to be developed for children. Therefore, the management of the center and maintenance of education are needed constantly for the IDOLBOMI system; Fourth, the parents who needed the service thought the cost of IDOLBOMI was expensive. Expenditure support should be sought for the parents; Finally, the group of professionals had difficulty in securing the quality of childcare support services. For the future, it is necessary to increase the educational budget, manpower resources, and PR budget for IDOLBOMI.

Background: Firefighters are required to use self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA), which impairs ventilatory mechanics. We hypothesized that firefighters have elevated arterial $CO_2$ when using SCBA. Methods: Firefighters and controls performed a maximal exercise test on a cycle ergometer and two graded exercise tests (GXTs) at 25%, 50%, and 70% of their maximal aerobic power, once with a SCBA facemask and once with protective clothing and full SCBA. Results: Respiratory rate increased more in controls than firefighters. Heart rate increased as a function of oxygen consumption ($V_{O_2}$) more in controls than firefighters. End-tidal $CO_2$ ($ETCO_2$) during the GXTs was not affected by work rate in either group for either condition but was higher in firefighters at all work rates in both GXTs. SCBA increased $ETCO_2$ in controls but not firefighters. Conclusions: The present study showed that when compared to controls, firefighters' hypoventilate during a maximal test and GXT. The hypoventilation resulted in increased $ETCO_2$, and presumably increased arterial $CO_2$, during exertion. It is proposed that firefighters have altered $CO_2$ sensitivity due to voluntary hypoventilation during training and work. Confirmation of low $CO_2$ sensitivity and the consequence of this on performance and long-term health remain to be determined.

Objectives: This study aimed to prepare basic data to improve the health-related quality of life of cancer survivors by confirming their oral and mental health statuses and identifying factors affecting their health-related quality of life. Methods: Of all participants in the 8th KNHANES (2019-2020), adults aged 19 years or older who responded 'yes' to the diagnosis of cancer and 404 cancer survivors who responded 'none' to the current cancer prevalence item were selected as the final research participants. Multiple regression analysis was conducted to confirm the effect of cancer survivors' oral and mental health on health-related quality of life. Results: Subjective oral health (p<0.01), chewing problems (p<0.05), subjective health (p<0.001), and depression (p<0.01) had an effect on health-related quality of life from multiple regression analyses. Conclusions: Therefore, oral and mental health promotion may improve health-related quality of life. Thus, it is necessary to recognize the importance of oral and mental health and implement preventive education and programs.

The purposesof the study are to analyze the community nursing center in U.S.A and to develop the model of nursing care system based on nurse-midwifery clinic in community for women's health in Korea. 1. In America nursing center is defined as nurse-anchored system of primary care delivery or neighborhood health center. Nursing centers are identified the following four types: (1) community outreach centers, which are similar to traditional public health clinics: (2) institutional-based centers following the mission of a large institution, such as a hospital or university: (3) wellness/health promotion centers, which offer screening, education, counseling, triage, and health maintenance services: and (4) independent practice. Nursing centers are a concept of services provided by nurses in practice arrangements in a community. Nursing centers offer a variety of services, ranging from primary care provided by advanced practice nurses with medical acute management and nursing care to the more traditional education, health promotion, screening wellness and coordination services. Some services, such as the care provided by advanced practice nurses are reimbursed under various insurance plan in some instances and states, where as others, such as preventive and educational services, are not. Thus, lack of reimbursement has threatened the survival of some centers. Licensing of nursing centers varies by state and program and accreditation of nursing centers is also limited. 52% of centers are affiliated with another facility and 48% are freestanding centers. The number of registered nurse at the nursing centers ranges from just one to 115, with a mean of eight RNs peragency and a median of three. Nursing centers avail ability varies: 14% are open 24 hours, 27% have variable short hours, 23% are open 6-7 days per week, and 36% are open Monday- Friday. As the result of my visiting three health centers in Seattle and San Francisco, the women's primary care nurse practitioners focus on a systematic and comprehensive assessment of the health status of women and diagnosis and management of common physical and psychosocial health concerns of women in ambulatory settings. Therapeutic nursing strategies are directed toward self-care, risk reoduction, health surveillance, stress reduction, healthy nutrition, social support, healthy coping, psychological well-being, and pharmacological therapy. They function as primary care providers for the well ness and illness care of women from adolescence through the older adult years and pregnant families. 2. In Korea a nurse-midwife practices independently for pregnant women's health including childbearing family at her own clinic in community. Her services are reimbursed under national health insurance but they are not paid on a fee-for-service schedule covering items. Analyzing the nursing centers in America, I suggest that nurse-midwifery clinics offer primary care for women and home care for chronic ill patients. The health law and health insurance policy should be reovised in order to expand nurse-midwife's and home care nurse's roles at nurse-midwifery clinic.

본 연구는 초등학생의 간식 섭취 실태를 조사하여 바람직한 간식을 섭취하는 아동에 비해 그렇지 않은 간식을 자주 섭취하는 아동의 식생활 및 생활습관, 학교 급식의 만족도 및 잔반 실태와 음식의 기호도를 비교하고자 경기 북부 소재 초등학교 3개교의 4-6학년 435명을 대상으로 설문 조사를 실시하였다. 본 연구대상자의 경우 가장 자주 섭취하는 간식으로 과자류 (37.3%) > 음료류 (11.7%) > 우유 및 유제품류 (9.0%) > 면류 (8.3%) > 빵류 (7.8%) > 분식류 (7.1%) > 패스트푸드류 (1.6%) 순으로 나타났는데, 가장 자주 섭취하는 간식을 과일, 우유·유제품으로 답한 군을 자연간식군 (114명), 면류, 분식류, 패스트푸드로 답한 경우 식사대용군 (74명), 과자류, 음료류, 빵류로 답한 경우 단맛간식군 (247명)으로 구분하여 군간 차이의 유의성을 검증하였다. 자연간식군의 경우 미취업모를 가진 비율, 간식빈도가 주 3회 이하로 낮은 비율이 유의적으로 높았으며, 간식을 스스로 구매하는 비율과 하루 간식 구입비가 3,000원 이상인 비율은 유의적으로 낮았다. 간식의 선호하는 맛으로 단맛을 택한 비율은 단맛간식군에서, 매운맛은 식사대용군에서, 새콤한 맛은 자연간식군에서 가장 많이 선택하여 유의적으로 달랐다. 식사대용군의 경우 아침에 한식을 먹는 비율이 유의적으로 낮은 경향이 있었으며 생활습관 중에서 30분 이상 운동빈도가 자연간식군에서 유의적으로 더 높았다. 자연간식군은 고기튀김류의 기호도가 유의적으로 낮은 반면 잡곡밥과 생채류의 기호도가 유의적으로 높았고 숙채와 채소볶음의 기호도가 높은 경향이 있었다. 한편 식사대용군에서 상대적으로 많은 비율이 학교 급식에서 음식을 남기는 이유로 '배가 고프지 않아서'로 답한 경향은, 적절하지 못한 간식 섭취가 세끼 식사를 방해하는 것과 관련될 수 있음을 보였다. 종합적으로 볼 때, 초등학생 시기에 자연간식을 즐기는 식습관을 기를 수 있도록 교육하는 것이 이들 집단의 맛 기호도, 잡곡밥과 채소반찬 기호도, 운동습관에 바람직한 영향을 미칠 수 있는 가능성을 제시하였고, 이 결과는 본 조사대상자의 연령군을 대상으로 한 영양교육 자료를 개발하는데 기초자료를 제공할 수 있을 것이다.
