이 연구는 대학생의 A형 간염 지식, 건강신념, A형 간염 예방접종 행태를 파악하기 위하여 실시하였다. 대구 경북지역의 보건계열을 제외한 4년제 대학생을 대상으로 2014년 3월 3일부터 3월 25일까지 구조화된 설문지를 이용한 자기기입식 설문조사를 하였으며, 총 197부를 최종분석대상으로 하였다. 연구대상자들의 A형 간염 지식점수는 15점 만점에 $4.59{\pm}3.06$점이었으며, 건강신념 점수는 4점 만점에 $2.39{\pm}0.28$점이었고, A형 간염 예방접종률은 12.7%였다. A형 간염 지식은 A형 간염 검사 경험, 가족 중 A형 간염 예방접종 경험에 따라 유의한 차이가 있었고, 건강신념은 성별에 따라 유의한 차이가 있었다. A형 간염 예방접종은 A형 간염 검사 경험, 가족 중 간질환, 가족 중 A형 간염 예방접종 경험, A형 간염 교육 경험 등에 따라 유의한 차이가 있었다. 로지스틱 회귀분석 결과, A형 간염 예방접종 행태에 유의한 영향을 미치는 변수는 A형 간염 검사 경험과 가족 중 A형 간염 예방접종 경험이었다. 결과적으로 연구대상자들의 A형 간염 지식, 건강신념 수준이 낮았으며 A형 간염 예방접종률 또한 낮았다. 따라서 적절한 보건교육을 통해 지식을 습득할 수 있게 하고, 질병 예방행위 실천 및 A형 간염 예방접종률을 높일 수 있는 방안들이 모색될 필요가 있을 것이다.

Purpose: HPV vaccination is important for the prevention of cervical cancer and genital warts and it is recommended that females be vaccinated against HPV before having sexual contact. Although the national HPV immunization has recently started in Korea, the vaccination rate is still not high. This is a relevant study attempting to investigate the factors affecting the vaccination status of female adolescents in the target age groups focusing on mothers' knowledge and health beliefs of HPV vaccines. Methods: Participants were 206 mothers who had daughters at the target age for the national HPV vaccination program living in a metropolitan city. Data were collected using a self-reported questionnaire about HPV knowledge and health beliefs of HPV vaccines, consisting of perceived susceptibility seriousness, benefits, barriers, and cues to action. Results: The participants' knowledge of HPV was significantly correlated with the overall health beliefs. The factors influencing mothers regarding the HPV vaccination status of their adolescent daughters were found to be perceived barriers, advice on vaccination from medical staff, and perceived benefits. Conclusion: There is a need to organize subject-specific education programs focusing on correcting misinformation about the side effects and benefits of HPV vaccines. When operating education programs, it is recommended that participants include both students and their parents, that various approaches be implemented such as formal health classes, home correspondence and online education, and that medical personnel be also involved as education providers.

This study was aimed to determine influenza vaccination coverage in 2004 in Koreans and investigate the factors associated with vaccination. Documentation of vaccination status and baseline data was conducted by a survey using questionnaire sheets. Baseline data and vaccination status were documented on 1465 people out of whom 60.1% received the influenza vaccine. Forty-seven percent of the responders were male; 4% were aged 1-12, 32% were aged 13-39, 32% were aged 40-64 and 32% were aged 65 or older. Twenty-three percent reported a chronic illness, increasing their risk for complications from influenza. Predictors of influenza vaccination were: older age (OR=11.7, 95% CI 5.1-26.8), the presence of chronic illness (OR=2.3, 95% CI 1.1-4.7), previous vaccination (OR=1.8, 95% CI 1.1-2.8), belief that influenza vaccine is effective in preventing influenza (OR=2.5, 95% CI 1.1-5.7) and education level (OR=1.7, 95% CI 1.0-2.7). Immunization rates were much higher in those who will take immunization again (OR=10.4, 95% CI 5.5-19.6). Factors affecting the decision on immunization were self-determination (43.6%), public relations (24.1%), recommendation from family members or friends (22.4%) and consulting with health professionals (5.8%). The main reason not to take influenza vaccine was the thought that they are healthy (50.1%). Overall, influenza vaccine coverage was high in those aged 65 or older. Immunization against influenza was influenced more by existing medical problem and belief about the vaccine's effectiveness, rather than sex or residence.

목적: 조혈모세포이식 환자들은 b 형 헤모필루스 인플루엔자(Haemophilus influenzae type b, Hib)과 폐렴구균(Streptococcus pneumoniae, Sp)에 의한 침습성 감염에 취약하다. 방법: 삼성서울병원에서 2009-2011년 사이에 조혈모세포 이식 환자들에게 Hib와 Sp 백신을 접종하고 면역반응을 평가하였다. 결과: 10명의 소아환자가 참가하였고 연령의 중앙값은 5.5세 이었다. Hib 백신 이전에는 60%의 환자에서 anti-PRP IgG가 측정 하한값 $0.15{\mu}g/mL$ 보다 낮았으나 접종 후 100%의 환자에서 $0.15{\mu}g/mL$와 방어 항체가 $1.0{\mu}g/mL$ 이상으로 증가하였다. Sp 백신을 접종한 2-5세 환자 군은 접종 전 6개의 혈청형에 대한 기하 평균 항체가가 $0.35{\mu}g/mL$ 미만이었으나 접종 후 5개월째 7개 혈청형에 대한 기하 평균 항체가가 모두 $0.35{\mu}g/mL$ 이상으로 증가하였다. 5세 초과의 환자 군에서는 접종 전에 4개의 혈청형에 대한 기하평균 항체가가 $0.35{\mu}g/mL$ 미만이었으나 접종 후 3개월째 검사한 7개 혈청형에 대한 기하 평균 항체가가 모두 $0.35{\mu}g/mL$ 이상 증가하였다. 결론: 소아조혈모세포 이식 환자에서 Hib와 Sp 백신접종 후 면역 반응을 보임을 관찰하였다. 국내 소아 조혈모세포 이식 환자에서 이들 백신에 대한 면역반응 연구가 지속적으로 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

Purpose: Based on Anderson's model of health service utilization, we investigated the factors that affect the influenza vaccination status in Korean adults aged 50-64 years, who live alone. Methods: Data of 194 Korean adults aged 50-64 years, who live alone were obtained from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 7th Edition (2016-2018). Descriptive statistics and a multiple logistic regression model were used for statistical analysis. Results: The influenza vaccination rate in the study population was 39.3%. Educational status and health behaviors such as smoking habits and regular medical check-up were associated with the influenza vaccination rate in Korean adults aged 50-64 years, who live alone. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that educational level lower than middle school graduation (odds ratio [OR] 2.02), non-smoking status (OR 1.98), and lack of regular medical check-up (OR 0.62) were significantly associated with the influenza vaccination rate in Korean adults aged 50-64 years, who live alone. Conclusion: The influenza vaccination rate in Korean adults aged 50-64 years, who live alone, is relatively low; therefore, policies should be implemented to improve the influenza vaccination rate in this population. Influenza vaccination in single households was affected by health promotion activities; therefore, interventions are warranted to encourage overall health promotion activities.

Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the estimated proportion for influenza vaccination and to identify factors associated with influenza vaccination in Korean diabetic patients. Methods: Data from the fourth, fifth, and sixth (except for 2013) Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (n=3,726) was used. A chi-square test was performed to investigate the estimated proportion for influenza vaccination, and a multiple logistic regression analysis was used to identify the factors associated with self-reported influenza vaccination. Results: In men, 28.8% of diabetes patients 30-64 years of age, and 76.1% of elderly (over 65 years of age) diabetes patients received influenza vaccination. In women, 37.7% of diabetes patients 30-64 years of age, and 78.4% of elderly diabetes patients received influenza vaccination (p<0.0001). The determinants of influenza vaccination were marriage, hypertension (odds ratio [OR], 1.55; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.07-2.24), residence within a mega city, unemployment (OR, 3.94; 95% CI, 1.24-12.54), and exercise via (weekly) walking for diabetic men; and hypertension (OR, 1.71; 95% CI, 1.16-2.52), chronic disease (OR, 1.81; 95% CI, 1.08-3.02), and exercise via walking (OR, 2.65; 95% CI, 1.49-4.73) for diabetic women. Conclusion: Influenza vaccination remains relatively low in young diabetic patients. It is necessary to recommend vaccination to young diabetic patients, and to devise other strategies to improve vaccination.

Purpose: Mumps meningitis is a common complication of mumps infection; however, information on mumps meningitis in the postvaccine era is limited. The purpose of the present study was to determine factors associated with mumps meningitis and to discuss the effect of vaccination on this disease. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed patients younger than 19 years with mumps, diagnosed at a university hospital in Korea between 2003 and 2013. Patients were divided into groups with and without meningitis, and the clinical features of the 2 groups were compared. Results: The study enrolled 119 patients: 19 patients with meningitis and 100 patients without. Univariate analysis showed that older age (median: 15 years vs. 9.5 years, respectively), a longer interval from last vaccination (median: 10.2 years vs. 4.8 years, respectively), and febrile presentation (94.7% vs. 31.0%, respectively) were significantly associated with mumps meningitis. Sex, number of vaccination doses, bilateral parotitis, and the presence of complications other than meningitis did not differ between the 2 groups. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, age (odds ratio, 1.38; 95% confidence interval, 1.01-1.89; P=0.04) and fever (odds ratio, 30.46; 95% confidence interval, 3.27-283.61; P<0.01) remained independent factors for mumps meningitis. Conclusion: Clinicians in the postvaccine era should be aware of the possibility of mumps meningitis in febrile cases of mumps in adolescents, regardless of the number of vaccination doses. To establish the role of vaccination in mumps meningitis, further studies will be necessary.

Female ICR mice were vaccinated against Toxoplasma gondii(RH strain), infected 2 weeks later and after recovery mated to normal ICR males. Control matings were with normal ICR females. The progeny of the above matings were weaned at 1 week, vaccinated at 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 weeks of age and infected 2 weeks later with lethal Toxoplasma tachyzoites. As assessed by survival, the effectiveness of vaccination among offspring of vaccinated-recovered mothers was greatly impaired than that of control mice, with respective of age : where mice did survive, recovery was greatly delayed relative to the controls. The protective effect of vaccination among infants born to control mothers was also blocked by maternal specific antibodies, by administration of high-titered specific antibodies or by transfer of nylon wool adherent immune-spleen cells, but was augmented by transfer of nylon wool passed immune-spleen cells. These results indicate that this impairment of vaccination may be due to the transmission of maternal specific antibodies to the offspring which acts to suppress both priming by the vaccine and the generation of parasite-specific helper T cells.
