Sleep related breathing disorders(SRBDs) are a group of diseases accompanied by difficulties in respiration and ventilation during sleep. Central sleep apnea, obstructive sleep apnea(OSA), sleep-related hypoventilation, and hypoxemia disorder are included in this disease entity. OSA is known to be the most common SRBDs and studies show its significant correlation with general health problems including hypertension, arrhythmia, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome. The diagnostic process of OSA is composed of physical examinations of the head and neck area and also the oral cavity. Radiologic studies including cephalography, CT, MRI, and fluoroscopy assist in identifying the site of obstruction. However, polysomnography(PSG) is still considered the gold standard for the diagnosis of OSA since it offers both qualitative and quantitative recording of the events during a whole night's sleep. The dentist who is trained in sleep medicine can easily identify patients with the risk of OSA starting from simple questions and screening questionnaires. Diagnosis is the first step to treatment and considering the high rate of under-diagnosis for OSA the dentist may play a substantial role in the diagnosis and treatment of OSA which will eventually lead to the well-being of the patient as a whole person. So the objective of this article is to assist dental professionals in gaining knowledge and insight of the diagnostic measures for OSA including PSG.

The purpose of this study is to investigate cognitive gap between users and architectural experts for architectural planning of elementary schools to support effective decision-makings. For this study, each architectural factor was selected from the journals published by Korean Institute of Education Facilities(KIEF) from 2000 to 2004. Among these factors, the priority planning factors were decided through Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP). The results of this study showed users' emphasis on the amenities of physical environment such as orientation, ventilation, noise, view, but experts' preference on spatial composition of space and function such as orientation, circulation, zoning, parking lot, courtyard. This difference shows clear cognitive gaps between two groups and also suggests factors required to be considered to develop effective decision-making in elementary school planning.

This paper provides quantitative data that describes the evolution of the air quality in the Whale and Sea Museum, located in the Iwate prefecture, collected after the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake and tsunami. The museum was damaged significantly by the disaster, and restoration works continued for over six years. The air quality in the temporary storage facility and museum was monitored during the rehabilitation process. Evaluation of air quality is carried out by gas chromatography- mass spectrometry, ion chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography. The results showed that the characteristics of the chemical components differed depending on the measurement locations inside the building. The museum atmosphere tended to be alkaline as the airtightness increased because of the maintenance works at the entrance. It was also determined that it was necessary to study the intake/exhaust routes and to clean them according to the contamination degree. In Japan, there are recommended museum air quality standards for acetic acid, formic acid, alkali, and aldehydes. The results indicated that these standards should not be used as a reference for damaged museums. Furthermore, at the temporary storage facilities for to store the collections during the rehabilitation of the museum, solvents such as ethyl benzene, toluene, and xylene are initially abundant, although they can be reduced by ventilation, while other components such as 2E1H was confirmed in this case are likely to remain.

연구배경: 침습적 기계 호흡 이탈에 성공하여 기관내 관을 제거하였으나 48시간 이내에 급성 호흡 부전이 경우 또는 환자 스스로 기관내 관을 제거한 후 발생된 급성 호흡 부전은 이탈 실패의 중요한 원인이며, 발생시 기관내 관의 재삽관을 통한 호흡 보조가 표준적 치료이다. 비침습적 양압 환기법(noninvasive positive pressure ventilation이하 NIPPV)은 비 혹은 안면마스크를 통해 양압 환기를 시행하므로 기관내 삽관을 회피할 수 있다. 본 연구는 기계 호흡 이탈 후 기관내 관을 제거한 환자들에게 발생된 급성 호흡 부전 시 NIPPV 적용이 기관내 삽관을 통한 양압 환기 치료를 대체할 수 있는지를 알아보고자 하였다. 방 법: 대상은 아산 재단 서울 중앙병원 내과계 중환자실에 입원하여 기계적 환기 치료를 받고 이탈 과정에서 기관내 관 제거 후 48시간 이내에 급성 호흡 부전이 발생한 환자 21명 및 스스로 기관내 관을 제거한 후 급성 호흡 부전이 발생한 환자 7명과 기관내 관이 기도내 분비물로 막혀 기관내 관을 제거한 환자 2명등 총 31명에게 NIPPV를 적용하였다. NIPPV는 환자 상태에 따라 기계 환기 양식, 압력 보조 수준 및 흡입 산소의 양이 조절 되어졌으며, 압력 보조 8cm $H_2O$미만에서 임상적으로 안정된 상태를 유지하는 경우 완전히 NIPPV에서 이탈하였다. 성공군은 NIPPV 이탈후 48 시간 이상 자발 호흡을 유지한 경우로 정의하였고, 실패군은 NIPPV 시행 후 호흡 부전 소견이나 동맥혈 가스검사의 호전이 없어 다시 기관내 삽관을 시행하여 기계호흡을 시행한 환자로 정의하였다. 각 군에서 NIPPV적용 직전, 적용 후 30분, 6시간, 24시간, NIPPV 이탈 작전 또는 실패하여 기관내 재삽관으로 전환 직전의 심박동수, 분당 호흡수, 동맥혈 가스검사, 압력 보조 수준 및 호기말 양압등을 비교하였다. 결 과: 총 31명에서 NIPPV를 적용하였고, 이 중 성공군은 14명(45%)이었다. 성공군과 실패군을 비교 시 나이, 중환자실 입원 당시의 APACHE III 점수, 기관 내 삽관 기간, 기관내 관 제거 후 NIPPV적용시까지의 시간 및 NIPPV 시행 직전의 분당 호흡수, 심박동수, 동맥혈 가스검사, $PaO_2/FiO_2$ 등은 양군간에 유의한 차이가 없었다. 모든 환자에서 NIPPV적용 30분후부터 분당 호흡수 및 심박동수는 감소하였고 동맥혈 산소 포화도는 증가하였다.(p<0.05) 그러나, 실패군에서는 NIPPV 시행중에 상태가 악화되어 기관내 재삽관을 시행하였고, 재삽관 작전의 분당 호흡수 및 심박동수는 다시 증가하였으며 동맥혈 산소포화도는 감소하였다(p<0.05). 기저 질환이 COPD 이면서 기관내 관 제거 후 급성 호흡부전이 발생한 환자 8명에게 NIPPV 적용 시 COPD가 아닌 다른 환자들에 비해 NIPPV의 성공률이 의미 있게 높았다(62% 대 39%)(p=0.007). NIPPV를 이용한 이탈 시 실패의 원인으로는 기저 질환의 악화 없이 동맥혈 가스 소견이 악화되었던 예가 9예, 그 외 기저 질환 악화 5예, 마스크 부적응이 2예, 기도내 분비물 축적이 1예였다. 결 론: NIPPV는 침습적 기계 호흡이탈과정에서 특히 기저질환이 COPD인 환자들의 경우 기관내 관 제거 후 발생한 급성 호흡 부전 시 기관내 관의 재삽관을 피할 수 있는 유용한 치료적인 방법으로 사료된다.

It is highly recognized that there is need for protection against indoor air pollution, as we realize environmental pollution is growing, For example, in an indoor environment, a person spends more than 80 percent of their time inside the building. Thus, concern about indoor decoration materials is growing, since they cause pollution in the rooms of an apartment, as well as in offices. As the indoor decoration materials become more diverse and lusurious, so the effect of VOCs(Volatile Organic Compounds) and HCHO(Formaldehy) is growing. The indoor decoration materials cause the Sick Building Syndrome, such as headaches, dizziness, or lack of concentraion, and they in turn cause serious deterioration in people's health. In this study, I probed the status of the indoor air pollution and carried on an investigation and analysis about the prevention technique. In doing so, I performed experimental tests and an assessment of the indoor decoration materials of an apartment. I also examined elements of the emitted and the emission. Finally, I examined the character of emissions, by changing environmental conditions, such as the temperature, humidity, and ventilation. With respect to VOCs tests, I applied the method of solid state adsorption using the adsorptive tube, based on the measurement of the American EPA TO-17, ASTM 5116-97, and the measurement of the Japanese Wall Decoration Industrial Association. The tested sample was analyzed by High Performance Liquid Chromatography, after going through the process of dissolvent extraction. As subjects of the test, Paint were selected. The process of this test is as follows; first, I figured out the character of the emission, by measuring the emitted concentration of VOCs and HOHC from the indoor decoration materials of an apartment. Second, I made a small-scale chamber and the test was processed in the chamber in order to suggest an environment-friendly prediction modlel development.

In this paper, micro dried bio-potential electrodes are demonstrated for sEMG (surface ElectroMyoGraphic) signal measurement using conductive epoxy on the textile fabric. Micro dried bio-potential electrodes on the textile fabric substrate have several advantages over the conventional wet/dry electrodes such as good feeling of wearing, possibility of extended-wearing due to the good ventilation. Also these electrodes on the textile fabric can easily apply to the curved skin surface. These electrodes are fabricated by the screen-printing process with the size of $1mm{\times}10mm$ and the resultant resistance of these electrodes have the average value of $0.4{\Omega}$. The conventional silver chloride electrode shows the average value of $0.3{\Omega}$. However, the electrode on the textile fabric are able to measure the sEMG signal without feeling of difference and this electrode shows the lower resistance of $1.03{\Omega}$ than conventional silver chloride electrode with $2.8{\Omega}$ in the condition of the very sharp curve surface (the radius of curvature is 40 mm).

This study was performed to find out factors affecting degree of satisfaction with workers' working environment. The study subjects were 165 workers who were working at painting process of twelve furniture manufacturing factories in Incheon area. We used self-administered questionnaire containing general characteristics, working conditions, the degree of satisfaction with working environment, and the degree of satisfaction with working condition. In addition, we measured the exposure levels of occupational hazardous agents. The results were as follows; 1. Correlations between the degree of satisfaction with workers' working environment and the measured of occupational hazardous agents did not affect the degree of satisfaction with workers' working environment. 2. Factors affecting the degree of satisfaction with workers' working environment were not the exposure levels of occupational hazardous agents, but the degree of satisfaction with working condition, size of industry, health status, and types of ventilation system. As the degree of satisfaction with working condition was increased, the degree of satisfaction with working environment was increased. Also, for the workers who had good health status, the degree of satisfaction with work environment was appeared to be high. To increase the degree of satisfaction, with workers' working environment, firstly, effective work management and production control are required. Also, the worker's effort to negotiate continuously with top manager on improving working conditions is required. Secondly, developing heath promotion program to be appropriate for the characteristics of worksite is required. Moreover, leading worker's participation in health promotion program is very important to increase the degree of satisfaction with workers' working environment.
