Background: Numerous studies have suggested that selenium deficiency may be associated with an increased risk for several types of cancer, but few have focused on thyroid cancer. Materials and Methods: We examined the association between post-diagnostic fingernail selenium levels and differentiated thyroid cancer risk in a French Polynesian matched case-control study. Conditional logistic regression models were used to estimate odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals. Results: The median selenium concentration among controls was $0.76{\mu}g/g$. Significantly, we found no association between fingernail selenium levels and thyroid cancer risk after conditioning on year of birth and sex and additionally adjusting for date of birth (highest versus lowest quartile: odds-ratio=1.12, 95% confidence interval: 0.66-1.90; p-trend=0.30). After additional adjustment for other covariates, this association remained non-significant (p-trend=0.60). When restricting the analysis to thyroid cancer of 10 mm or more, selenium in nails was non-significantly positively linked to thyroid cancer risk (p-trend=0.09). Although no significant interaction was evidenced between iodine in nails and selenium in nails effect (p=0.70), a non-significant (p-trend =0.10) positive association between selenium and thyroid cancer risk was seen in patients with less than 3 ppm of iodine in nails. The highest fingernail selenium concentration in French Polynesia was in the Marquises Islands ($M=0.87{\mu}g/g$) and in the Tuamotu-Gambier Archipelago ($M=0.86{\mu}g/g$). Conclusions: Our results do not support, among individuals with sufficient levels of selenium, that greater long-term exposure to selenium may reduce thyroid cancer risk. Because these findings are based on post-diagnostic measures, studies with prediagnostic selenium are needed for corroboration.

여성의 인권과 권리가 상승된 현대사회는 남녀평등이라는 원칙 아래 사회의 모든 분야에서 여성과 남성을 차별하지 않고 동등하게 대우할 것을 요구하고 있다. 현대사회에서 남녀평등을 말하기까지에는 그 이면에 페미니즘이 있다. 페미니즘은 여성과 남성의 권리와 기회를 평등하게 만들기 위해서 진행되었으나 역사적으로 사회활동과 정치참여를 남성이 주도 해왔기 때문에 여성권리의 주장과 실현을 목표로 발생하였다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 페미니즘을 영상미디어 콘텐츠인 애니메이션을 통해 연구해보고자 한다. 주지하다시피 미디어는 각 시대의 이데올로기가 반영됨으로써 그 시대를 비추는 거울과도 같다. 그런 의미에서 영상 미디어의 대표적인 장르인 애니메이션에서 나타나는 페미니즘의 경향을 연구하는 것은 시대의 경향을 이해하는 과정에 있어 매우 유의미하다고 할 수 있다. 본 연구는 페미니즘적 경향이 확연히 드러나는 두 편의 애니메이션 "소녀혁명 우테나"와 "겨울왕국"을 분석하였다. 두 애니메이션에는 마녀로써 객체화 된 여성이 주체적인 여성을 만나 자기주도적인 선택과 행동을 하는 캐릭터의 변화를 담고 있다. 이를 통해 현대사회에서 보여지는 포스트페미니즘의 주체적이며 자아 성취적인 경향을 확인할 수 있었고, 이를 기반으로 앞으로 나타날 페미니즘의 변화상 역시 예측 가능하였다. 본 논문의 한계로는 페미니즘에 관련된 애니메이션의 자료를 찾기 쉽지 않았다. 한국에서도 이와 관련된 학술대회가 개최되었고 인터넷 상에서 많은 해석이 있었지만 본 연구에 부합되는 자료가 적어 아쉬움이 남았다. 이는 다음번 연구를 통해 더 심화시키고자 한다.

The periodic health examination have been shown the important role on early detection, early treatment and prevention of disease. Until now, there have been many studies that showed the effectiveness of the periodic health examination on the early detection and early treatment of disease to some extent. But there are few studies about primary prevention before health problem arise. In this case-control study, 29 newly detected hypertensive cases, 31 liver disease cases and 65 controls which are all available for 6-year data in the periodic health examination of a occupational field were compared to investigate the significant increase trend of health status between the groups. The results will be used for the occupational health nurses to provide appropriate primary prevention to the employees. The hypertensive and liver disease cases were divided observation-needed group and treatment-needed group. The data on systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, Body Mass Index and Broca Index in hypertensive cases and SGOT, SGPT, Body Mass Index and Broca Index in liver disease cases were analyzed by t-test and ANOVA. The specific findings are summarized as follows. 1. In the comparison between the hypertensive cases and controls, SBP and DBP of the observation-needed group and the treatment-needed group were significantly higher than the data of the controls for past 6 years. It was 2-3 years ago showing increase over 140/90mmHg of blood pressure in the hypertensive cases before they are categorized as hypertensive cases. In the observation-needed group and the treatment-needed group, the trend of the blood pressure for 6 years were significantly higher than the one of the controls. 2. In the comparison between the liver disease cases and controls, SGOT and SGPT of the observation-needed group and the treatment-needed group were significantly higher than the data of the controls for past 6 years. It was 2 years ago showing increase within upper normal limit of SGOT and 5 years ago of SGPT in the liver disease cases before they are categorized as liver disease cases. In the observation-needed group and the treatment-needed group, the trend of the liver enzyme for 6 years were significantly higher than the one of the controls. With these results, the author proposed that intervention for the primary prevention such as continuous follow-up, health education and weight control to the population who has over 140/90mmHg of blood pressure and upper normal limit of AST and ALT.

The objective of our research was an international comparison focusing on studies conducted on parks and green spaces undertaken in Japan and Korea. We also aim to clarify the similarities and differences between the two countries and consider the key features of the researches on the field of landscape architecture. We compared the recent trends of Japanese institute with Korean observed in the theme of research papers adopt title of them. The research period spanned approximately twenty years, from 1980 to 2003. We employed the Table of Contents information search system to research academic journal articles and to select the journals that included articles with the key words [park(s)] or [green space(s)] in their title. We chronologically arranged the journals for each country, based on the total number of journals and classification categories. We then conducted a comparative examination among the two countries. We also contributed information on the circumstances behind the formulation or amendment of some policies and laws and we checked the results against the research trend. Among the selected journals, the number of papers was the highest by the Institute of Landscape Architecture. But the reason for increase of the number of papers on green spaces in Japanese journals was not published by the Institute of Landscape Architecture but by the City Planning Institute and the Architecture Institute. In Japan, the papers on parks categorized under historical study were the highest among all categories. On the other hand, in Korean journals, papers on parks categorized under historical study were few. A similar trend was recognized in papers on green spaces. Every society is concerned with the study of function and effect. However, some exact differences have been observed by category classification. In Japan, the percentage of function and effect papers on parks was less than those on green spaces. In Korea, both percentages for these groups were high. The category of system and policy accounted for $17\%$ of the papers on green spaces in Korea. This result was higher than the number of papers on green spaces and parks in Japan and parks in Korea. Recently, the number of papers focusing on large-scale green space system has decreased in Japan. The trend in the study of parks and green spaces on a regional scale or at an individual level will be closely monitored. Systems and modeling studies have been focusing in Korea. The understanding between the administration and the citizens was peculiar to each country.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to analyze the current trends of various herbal medicine research on allergic disease with dysbiosis. Methods : Electronic searches were performed using Pubmed, Research Information Sharing Service(RISS), Korean studies Information Service System(KISS), Oriental medicine Advanced Searching Integrated System(OASIS). Results : We analyzed ten studies on the effect of herbal medicine on allergic disease with dysbiosis. Eight studies were animal experimental studies, and two were randomized clinical trial(RCT) study and one-group pretest-posttest research, respectively. Among the studies, three studies were on atopic dermatitis, two on allergic rhinitis, and five on asthma. All different herbal medicines were used in the studies. Changes in gut microbiota composition were observed in nine studies except for 1 RCT study. In eight animal experimental studies, there was significant reduction in allergy-related inflammatory markers. Six studies evaluated the change of metabolites related to gut microbiota and three of them showed significant increase in short-chain fatty acids(SCFA). Conclusion : This study provides current trends of studies on herbal medicine research on allergic disease with dysbiosis. Most research is conducted using animal experiments, and this is a relatively recent trend. These studies offer basic knowledge on the correlation between herbal medicine, gut microbiota, and anti-inflammatory effects in allergic disease.

Although nursing researchers have performed studies on parent-child relationship actively since early 1980s in Korea, nothing hasn't been tried on the analysis of the contents of researches. We researchers tried examining the trend of researches by investigating treaties on mother-child relationship conducted from 1981 to 1994. The purpose of this study was to analyze the trend of research on the mother-child relationship and to suggest direction for future study. The total numbers of the studies were 27 cases, These studies were analyzed for 1) time of publication 2) research design 3)main concept 4)thesis for a degree or nondegree 5) measurement tool The finding of the analysis were as follows. 1) In the chronological situation, the research on mother-child relationship began to perform in 1981 in the country and had been made most for five years to 1986 with 14 treaties and has decreased since 1990. 2) In the research plan, there are 21 survey(the most) ,5 quasi experimental(before 1986), 1 qualitative. 3) In the subject, the researches on mother-child are the most, 22 and of them 17 treaties on normal infant,4 comparative research on high risk infant and normal infant,5 treaties on mother, 4) The conception of mother-child relationship was used as various conceptions such as affection, union, bonding in early research of 1980s, but it hasn't been used as union bonding but studied mostly as the conception of 'mother-child interaction'since 1986. 5) The measurement tool of research was used variously, the Cropley's tool was used in early 1980s, but Walker's MIPS, Barnard's NCAST were used mostly in 1990. 6) Mother-child interaction influence on mother's self-conception, stress, care and feeding of child, frequency of delivery, planned pregnancy and delivery and health condition of child, birth weight, fetal period, period of mother-child life. Aspects of mother-child interaction composed on visual contact, looking at each other, skinship and caress with finger and fingertip. The leading action of mother-child interaction was mostly uttering action. 7) I suggest that the program for professional education is necessary for the establishment of the aspects of mother-child interaction.

환자-대조군 연관성 연구에서 후보 유전자와 질병이 연관되어 있지 않더라도 인구집단 층화로 인해 가짜 연관성이 발생할 수도 있다. 본 연구에서는 일배체형에 기초한 환자-대조군 연관성 연구에서 인구집단 층화로 인한 가짜 연관성을 해결하기 위한 방법으로, Zaykin 등 (2002)이 제안한 일배체형 경향성 모형에 인구집단 층화에 대한 정보를 추가하고자 한다. Zaykin 등 (2002)의 모형과 제안한 모형에 기초한 일배체형의 유의성 검정에서 인구집단 층화와 인구집단에 대한 관측 오차가 제1종 오류율에 미치는 영향을 모의실험을 통해 살펴보았다. 인구집단이 층화되어 있지만 각 개체가 속한 인구집단을 정확히 알 수 있을 때, Zaykin 등 (2002)의 모형에 기초한 검정은 제1종 오류율을 잘 조절하지 못했지만 본 연구에서 제안한 모형에 기초한 검정은 제1종 오류율을 잘 조절하는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 인구집단이 층화되어 있고 관측 오차가 존재하면 제안한 모형에 기초한 검정도 제1종 오류율을 조절하지 못하고 명목 유의수준보다 큰 값을 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 단일염기다형성에 기초한 환자-대조군 연관성 연구와 마찬가지로 일배체형에 기초한 환자-대조군 연관성 연구에서도 인구집단 층화에 대한 정보를 갖고 있다할지라도 그 속에 관측 오차가 존재하면 위양성을 피하기 어렵다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

이 글은 '주류' 아카이브 연구에서 아직은 크게 주목하지 않고 있는, 국내외 예술계를 중심으로 부상하는 새로운 아카이브 '열병'과 '충동'의 경향을 어떻게 주류 기록학계에서 바라보고 이를 주체적으로 수용할 것인지에 대한 시론적 글의 성격을 갖는다. 구체적으로, 이 글은 몇 가지 국내 아카이브 아트의 최근 경향성에 대한 관찰을 통해서 어떻게 아카이브 아트가 미학적 태도와 방식을 갖고 역사와 기억에 관여하고 있는지, 그리고 예술계 내부 '아카이브 충동' 현상이 '기록학계' 연구 경향에 어떤 시사점이나 영향력을 미칠 수 있는 지를 살펴보고자 한다. 먼저 구체적인 해외 사례, 즉 미국의 한 공공 기록관의 아카이브 체계 내에서 아카이브 충동을 재해석하고 적극적으로 수용하려는 의미 있는 움직임을 살피고자 한다. 이에 이어서, 아직 구체적 아카이브 방법의 조직화 수준에 이르지는 않았으나 국내 예술계에서 산발적으로 시도되는 아카이브를 매개하여 이뤄지는 창작 작업의 특징과 성격을 탐색하는 작업을 시도한다. 이른바 '아카이브 아티스트'들이 기존의 기록학계에서 관찰되지 않는 방식으로 어떻게 기록되지 않은 것을 기록하고, 배제된 역사를 어떻게 미학적 언어로 소환해 풀어내는지를 살핀다. 결론적으로, 본 연구는 '아카이브 아트'라는 이 새로운예술 경향으로부터, 전통의 역사적 기록을 보관박스에서 끄집어내 동시대적 정서 구조 안에서 살아있는 아카이브로 재해석할 수 있는 가능성을 타진한다.

Smart phone zombie or Smombie means pedestrians who walk without attention to their surroundings because they are focused upon their smart phone. Because the traffic accidents and injuries caused by Smombie have been increased rapidly in recent years, the social attention and policies are needed to prevent it. This study was conducted to analyze Smombie's current status and some solutions used before and to propose new improved method through the latest ICT trend. In this study, we did the field survey to check Smombies at several places in Seoul through people counting, and found that a lot of pedestrians still use the smart phone while walking. And we analyzed many case studies about some solutions to prevent Smombies previously. The case studies include legal regulations, government policies, smart phone app services and facilities that are used before. We studied them through internet searches and reference studies and we also checked the current operating situation as visiting several places that the solutions actually has been operated. Therefore, we found there are some limitations in previous solutions in terms of effectiveness and management. To consider new solution that can be expected to overcome the limitations, we analyzed the latest ICT trends focused on features to utilize the Smombie prevention, especially video recognition and digital signage. In these days, video recognition has been developed rapidly with assistance of AI technology and it can recognize the specific pedestrian's characteristics such as holding smart phone as well as hair style, clothes, backpack and etc. On the other hands, the digital signage is the convergence device that includes big display, network connection and various IoT sensors. It can be used as public media in many places for public services as well as advertising. Through these analysis results, we show the requirements and the user scenario for the improved method to prevent Smombie. Finally, we propose to develop R&D technology to recognize Smombie exactly as pedestrian attributes and to spread creative contents to increase pedestrian's interest and engagement for Smombie prevention through digital signage.
