  • Existing agricultural reservoirs are considered as alternative source for the water welfare of rural area. In this study, domestic water supply potential of 476 reservoirs, which has storage capacity more than one million cubic meter, out of 3,377 agricultural reservoirs managed by Korean Rural Community Corporation (KRC) were investigated. Among them water quality of 136 reservoirs met the criteria of domestic water source which show less than COD 3 ppm. Available amount for domestic water of reservoirs, which meet the water quality, for ten year return period of drought was analyzed with reservoir water balance model. The results showed that 116 reservoirs has potential for supplementary domestic water supply while satisfying irrigation water supply. Finally, economic analysis using Net Present Value (NPV), Benefit-Cost (B/C) ratio, Internal Rate of Return (IRR), and Profitability Index (PI) methods was also conducted. The analysis showed that 19 reservoirs satisfied economic feasibility when water is provided from reservoir outlet but only 9 reservoirs meet the economic feasibility if water delivered from a reservoir to treatment plant by newly built conveyance canal. In order to supply the domestic water through the agricultural reservoirs managed by KRC, it is necessary to flexibly interpret and operate the 'Rearrangement of Agricultural and Fishing village Act'. Also, it is reasonable to participate in the water service business when there is a supply request from other Ministries. In addition, the KRC requires further effort to change the crop system for saving water and improve efficiency of irrigation systems.

  • 난임과 인공수정은 증가하고 있음에 비해 이에 대한 법적 규율은 미비한 상태이며, 인공수정으로 출생한 자녀의 법적 지위는 불안하다. 현재는 해석에 의해 해결하고 있지만 향후 입법이 필요한 분야로, 우리 문화와 현재 사회의 인식 정도, 의료 수준의 발달 정도, 국외 여러 나라의 선행 입법례 등을 종합적으로 검토하여야 한다. 특히 입법론에서 고려하여야 할 것은 법을 위반하여 자녀가 출생한 경우, 그의 복리이다. 법이 미래의 모든 사항을 규율할 수는 없기 때문이다. 인공수정자의 복리는 이에 관한 상세한 입법이 없는 현재에서도 중점적 고려사항이다. 자선의 자유 의지와 적극적 행위로 인공수정을 선택한 성인과 달리 인공수정자는 출생에의 선택권이 없기 때문이다. 이하 본고에서는 인공생식 기술의 유형과 현황을 설명하고, 해석과 판례에서 나타나는 인공수정자의 법적인 지위와 기타 문제 등을 살펴보겠다. 그리고 해외 입법례를 통해 향후 입법안의 방향을 제시하겠다. 인공수정의 기술적 부분에 관한 입법안은 생명윤리 및 안전에 관한 법률에 포함시키고, 인공수정자의 친자관계에 관한 법적 지위 부분은 민법전에 편입하는 방식을 취하겠다. 인류의 미래에 도움을 주는 생명과학의 발전은 장려되어야 하지만 인간의 창조나 개량을 향한 연구는 지양해야 한다. 그러므로 본 연구가 현실과 과학을 접목하여 법적인 기준을 제시할 수 있는 단조가 되기를 기대해본다.

  • Purpose: The committee on trauma of the american college of surgeons, in its manual resources for optimal care of the injured patients involved in falls from less than 20 feet need not be taken to trauma centers. Because triage criteria dictate less urgency for low-level falls, this classification scheme has demerits for early detection and treatment of serious problems in the emergency room. Methods: A prospective analysis was conducted of 182 patients treated for fall-related trauma from June 2003 to March 2004. Falls were classified as group A (<3 m), group B (${\geq}3m$, <6 m), and group C (${\geq}6m$). Collected data included the patient's age, gender, site and height of fall, surface fallen upon, body area of first impact, body regions of injuries, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), Revised Trauma Score (RTS), and Injury Severity Score (ISS). Results: The 182 patients were classified as group A (105) 57.7%, group B (61) 33.5%, and group C (16) 8.8%. There was a weak positive correlation between the height of fall and the patients' ISS in the three groups (p<0.001). There were significant differences in GCS (p=0.017), RTS (p=0.034), and ISS (p=0.007) between group A and B. In cases that the head was the initial impact area of the body, the GCS (p<0.001) and the RTS (p=0.002) were lower, but the ISS (p<0.001) was higher than it was for other type of injuries. Hard surfaces as an impact surface type, had an influence on the GCS (p<0.001) and the ISS (p=0.025). Conclusion: To simply categorize patients who fall over 6 meters as severely injured patients doesn't have much meaning, and though patients may have fallen less than 6 meters, they should be categorized by using the dynamics (impact surface type, initial body - impact area) of their fall.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this prospective multi-institutional study was to evaluate the nutritional status of patients undergoing radiotherapy (RT) for treatment of head and neck, lung, or gastrointestinal cancer. Materials and Methods: A total of 1,000 patients were enrolled in this study at seven different hospitals in Seoul, Korea between October 2009 and May 2010. The nutritional status of patients after receiving 3 weeks of RT was evaluated using subjective global assessment (SGA). The nutritional status of each patient was rated as well nourished (A), moderately malnourished (B), or severely malnourished (C). Results: The mean age of patients in this study was $59.4{\pm}11.9$ years, and the male to female ratio was 7:3. According to the SGA results, 60.8%, 34.5%, and 4.7% of patients were classified as A, B, or C, respectively. The following criteria were significantly associated with malnutrition (SGA B or C; p < 0.001): loss of subcutaneous fat or muscle wasting (odds ratio [OR], 11.473); increased metabolic demand/stress (OR, 8.688); ankle, sacral edema, or ascites (OR, 3.234); and weight loss ${\geq}5%$ (OR, 2.299). Conclusion: SGA was applied successfully to assess the nutritional status of most patients. The prevalence of malnutrition in a radiation oncology department was 39.2%. The results of this study serve as a basis for implementation of nutrition intervention to patients being treated at radiation oncology departments.

  • The purpose of this study was to evaluate the program for the control of acute respiratory infections(ARI) in children in a Korean rural area(Yonchon county). Evaluating the program, we focused on the pattern of prescription and appropriateness of antibiotics prescribed by the health personnel who had participated in the ARI Control Program. It was implemented at the primary health care setting in rural area, such as district hospital, health subcenters, and health posts. During six-months programme monitoring period, medical records were reviewed and collected data were analysed by the pediatrician, research coordinator of this study. The baseline data were collected from medical records of the same period(six months) of one year before the implementation of the ARI programme. The study results were as follow : 1. Common cold was the most prevalent disease(78.7%. 594 cases) among the all ARI cases (755 cases). The less frequent cases were bronchitis(11.9%), acute pharyngitis(5.2%), and pneumonia(1.8%). 2. Significant reduction in the use of antibiotics was observed after the programme implementation. Ninety three(15.7%) of 594 common cold cases were received antibiotics compared with 282(35.2%) of 802 in the baseline period. In the cases of bronchitis and acute pharyngitis, the reduction rates were 15.1% and 23.2% respectively compared to the baseline period. 3. Mean duration of antibiotics prescription was 1.81-1.75 days, similar to the baseline data. 4. The appropriateness rate of antibiotics prescriptions were 84.3%(common cold), 35.6% (bronchitis) and 28.2%(acute pharyngitis). In the case of pneumonia, the antibiotics prescription was compatible to the criteria developed. 5. Pediatrician prescribed antibiotics more appropriately for all cases than general practitioners in health sub-center, and nurse practitioners in health posts. 6. Antibiotics therapy was shown to be of no effect in the treatment of the all ARI cases. At the 5 and 10 days check-up of common cold cases after visits, proportion of improved patients were 58.3% in the antibiotics-used group and 51.4% in the control group. In the other cases of ARI, the patterns of response were similar to common cold. None of the differences in outcome between the antibiotics-used and control group was statistically significant. This ARI programme may have substantial a substantial impact on antibiotics use at the public health institutions(district hospital, health subcenters, health posts) which are of major domain for primary health care in Korean rural areas.

  • Background: Orbital fractures are the most common pediatric facial fractures. Treatment is conservative due to the anatomical differences that make children more resilient to severe displacement or orbital volume change than adults. Although rarely, extensive fractures may result in enophthalmos, causing cosmetic problems. We aimed to establish criteria for extensive fractures that may result in enophthalmos. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the charts of patients aged 0-15 years diagnosed with orbital fractures in our hospital from January 2010 to February 2019. Computed tomography images were used to classify the fractures into linear, trapdoor, and open-door types, and to estimate the defect size. Data on enophthalmos severity (Hertel exophthalmometry results) and fracture pattern and size at the time of injury were obtained from patients who did not undergo surgery during the follow-up and were used to identify the surgical indications for pediatric orbital fractures. Results: A total of 305 pediatric patients with pure orbital fractures were included-257 males (84.3%), 48 females (15.7%); mean age, 12.01±2.99 years. The defect size (p=0.002) and fracture type (p=0.017) were identified as the variables affecting the enophthalmometric difference between the eyes of non-operated patients. In the linear regression analysis, the variable affecting the fracture size was open-door type fracture (p<0.001). Pearson's correlation analysis demonstrated a positive correlation between the enophthalmometric difference and the bony defect size (p=0.003). Using receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, a cutoff value of 1.81 ㎠ was obtained (sensitivity, 0.543; specificity, 0.724; p=0.002). Conclusion: The incidence of enophthalmos in pediatric pure orbital fractures was found to increase with fracture size, with an even higher incidence when open-door type fracture was a cofactor. In clinical settings, pediatric orbital fractures larger than 1.81 ㎠ may be considered as extensive fractures that can result in enophthalmos and consequent cosmetic problems.

  • This survey was undertaken for the period seven month beginning January 15, 1977 and ending July 31, 1977 to detect the general sanitary status of the villages and the villagers and, at the same time, analyse quality of water sources with emphasis on a total of 1,256 households dividing into three different groups: such as, 280 households were selected as random samples from the area of the sophisticated piped water supply system, 122 households from the area of the simplified water supply system and finally 854 households from the area of nonpi-ped water supply system. The following results were concluded after quality of water sources had been analysed and conditions of the environmental sanitation had been reviewed: 1. 11.2% of the respondents from the area of the sophisticated piped water supply system responded that quantity of drinking water lacked to meet their demand while 30.6% of the villagers from the area of nonpi-ped water supply system responded quantity of drinking water didn't meet their demand. 2. 30.8% of the.respondents from the area of the sophisticated water supply system responded that contaminating source located within 15 meters from the water source while 54.4% of the respondents from the non-piped water supply system claimed the same. 3. It was found that water from all sampling areas were positive in coliform group with exception of Moonsan which is one of the sophisticated piped water supply system groups and the number of general bacteria exceeded the government standard criteria of water quality in the area of the nonpi-ped water supply system. 4. In relation with time requirement to draw water in the area of non-piped water supply system, 76 respondents claimed it requires less than 15 minutes to draw water, 15.0% claimed 15 to 30 minutes and 9.0% claimed more than 30 minutes. 5. In relation with knowledge on sanitation of drinking water, 30.8% of respondents from the area of the sophisticated piped water supply system and 41.8% of respondents from the area of nonpiped water supply system denied possible existence of germ in drinking water they drink, while 17.4% of the respondents from the area of the sophisticated water supply system and 50.2% of non-peped water supply system thought it safe to drink water without any treatment. 6. 60.0% of the respondents from the area of non-piped water supply system and many of them believed that their health status will be improved by installation of a sophisticated water supply system in their area. 7. The respondents from the areas of piped water supply sytem expressed greater concern over drinking water sanitation than those from the areas of non-piped water supply system and sanitary conditions were found the same. It was, therefore, proved that knowledge of environmnntal sanitation contributed a great deal to improve sanitary conditions of the villages and villagers and at the same time health education, especially environmental sanitation, will be played a important role to improve their sanitary conditions.

  • 세기조절방사선치료(Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy, IMRT)의 정도관리를 위해서 독립적인 방법으로 선량검증을 하는 것은 중요하다. 독립적 선량검증을 위해 팬톰과 이온전리함을 이용한 측정 방법이 보편적으로 이루어지지만 많은 시간과 노력이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 세기조절방사선치료 시 시간에 따른 다엽콜리메이터의 움직임을 기록한 dynalog 파일을 이용하여 치료계획에서 도출된 총 실제 플루언스와 실제 치료 시의 모니터유닛(monitor unit, MU) 공간분포를 비교함으로써 간편한 세기조절방사선치료 정도관리 기술을 개발하였다. DICOM RT plan 파일로부터 총 실제 플루언스를 추출하고 MATLAB 코드를 이용하여 실제 치료 시 MU 공간분포를 dynalog 파일로부터 계산하였다. 개발된 방법의 효용성을 검증하기 위해 단계별조사기법과 동적조사기법으로 치료 받은 각 5명의 환자 데이터를 후향적으로 분석하였다. 분석 방법은 상용프로그램(Verisoft 3.1, PTW, German)에서 제공하는 감마인덱스를 사용하였다. 분석 결과 실제 치료 시의 MU 공간분포와 치료계획 상의 MU 공간분포 일치도가 평균 $97.8{\pm}1.33$%로 높은 일치도를 나타냈다. MU 공간분포 재구성의 정확도는 동적조사기법보다 단계별조사기법이 평균 1.4% 높았다. 본 연구에서 개발된 기술을 통해 세기조절방사선치료의 선량검증을 효과적으로 수행할 수 있다. 또한 분할치료 시 선량보정에 적용함으로써 맞춤형치료(adaptive radiotherapy)를 위한 기초자료로 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

  • 목적: 약년자와 고령자에서 발생하는 위암의 차이점에 관한 연구는 이전부터 있어왔지만, 최근 한국인의 평균 수명이 연장되면서 이에 따른 약년자 군과 고령자 군을 새롭게 분류해야할 필요가 제기되었다. 약년자에서 발생하는 위암은 진단 시 간파되기 쉽고, 고령자 위암의 경우 동반질환으로 인해 수술 전후의 위험도를 증가시키는 것으로 알려져 왔다. 저자들은 약년자 군과 고령자 군에서 발생한 위암에서 각각의 임상병리학적 특성과 예후에 관하여 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 위암 환자를 나이에 따라 35세 이하의 약년자 군 31명과 75세 이상의 고령자 군 49명으로 분류하고 성비, 발생위치, 조직학적 분류, 병기, 수술방법, 평균생존율 등의 임상병리학적 특성을 비교하였다. 결과: 약년자 군에서 미분화 선암과 미만형의 발생률이 가장 높았으며, 고령자 군에서는 미분화와 중등도 분화 선암, 장형의 발생률이 가장 높은 것으로 관찰되었다. 그 외 두 군 간의 수술 방법의 차이나 술 후 합병증 및 수술 전후의 사망률 등의 의미있는 임상적 차이는 관찰되지 않았다. 또한, 두 군 간의 생존율 차이도 관찰되지 않았다. 결론: 약령자와 고령자 두 군 간에 임상병리학적이나 생존율의 차이를 보이지 않았고, 두 군 간 수술방법과 근치도에서 차이가 없는 수술이 시도된 결과 고령자 군에서 약년자 군에 비해 생존율 저하를 보이지 많았다. 따라서 고령 환자에서 발생한 위암의 치료 시 보다 적극적 수술 치료가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.
