본 연구는 여자 청소년들의 휴대전화 사용행태와 컴퓨터단말기증후군 증상경험을 파악하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 자료 수집은 2013년 5월 6일부터 6월 3일까지 중학교 및 고등학교에 재학 중인 여학생들을 대상으로 VDT 증후군 자각증상 조사표를 이용하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS 21.0 프로그램을 이용하여 기술통계 및 Kruskal-Wallis test, Mann-Whitney U test 등으로 분석하였다. 연구결과 대상자들의 96.3%가 휴대전화를 사용하고 있었으며 컴퓨터단말기증후군 증상을 하나 이상 경험한 비율은 87.7%였으며, 증상경험 점수는 $.39{\pm}.41$점이었다. 눈 관련 증상을 가장 많이 경험하였으며, 근골격계 증상의 정도가 가장 심하였다. 컴퓨터단말기증후군 증상경험은 휴대전화 사용자세, 사용시간, 사용 중 휴식여부에 따라 차이가 있었다. 따라서 휴대전화 사용 시 바른 자세로 사용하고, 사용 중에는 휴식 시간을 갖는 것이 컴퓨터단말기증후군 증상경험 완화에 도움이 될 것이다. 또한 여자 청소년들이 자신의 휴대전화 이용 상태를 객관적으로 점검할 수 있도록 휴대전화 이용 상태 진단 도구의 개발과 주기적인 점검 기회를 제공할 필요가 있으며, 휴대전화 중독 위험집단에게는 중재 프로그램 또는 예방교육이 필요한 것으로 보인다.

Objectives Eyes, one of visual inspection regions, present important clues to pathological patterns including deficiency and excess patterns to the clinicians. The purpose of this study was to develop Eyes Inspection Questionnaire (EIQ) and to examine which items among the EIQ were more predictive of clinicians' determination for the deficiency and excess patterns. Methods Nine questionnaire items for Visual Inspection of Eyes were extracted through the literature review. These items were presented to the 4 Korean medical doctors who are specialized in visual inspection to conduct the Delphi method. The Korean medical doctors were asked to rate the importance of each items for the corresponding Visual Inspection of Eyes, using a Likert 5-point scale(the 3 points of importance as a cut-off point). Then, out of 75 photographs submitted to the Society of HyungSang Medicine in 2009, 30 portrait pictures were selected as samples. The samples were copied to make 60 sample pictures, and then randomly assigned to 4 clinicians. The 4 clinicians evaluated the 60 samples for excess and deficiency of the eyes and were asked to check the 6 questionnaire items. The results were recorded as 5-points-scale, and their average and standard deviations were calculated. Intra- class reliability test and multi regression test were performed using SPSS 13. Results Intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC) was between 0.750 to 0.841 (P<0.05). Indices for visual inspection of the eyes were: endowment of the bone structure around the eyes; brightness of the eyes; upward deviation of the eyes; eye shapes; and definition of iris. 76.92% of deficiency symptom patterns and 86.42% of the excess symptom patterns matched the patterns predicted by the visual inspection of the eyes, according to the frequency analysis. According to the multiple regression analysis, were significantly related to the excessive symptoms, and to the deficiency symptoms. Conclusion This study is the first attempt of development for checklist of excess and deficiency of Visual Inspection of Eyes and quantitative measurement of excess and deficiency using the Visual Inspection of Eyes by the visual inspection experts. Still, additional studies are needed regarding the relationship visual inspection methods have with existing standards of diagnosis.

Objectives : The purpose of this research is to examine the effect of Bunsimgi-eum on the chest discomfort of Hwa-byung's major symptom. Methods : In this randomized, double blinded, placebo-controlled study, we planned to give Bunsimgi-eum or controlled medication for major symptoms of Hwa-byung. As preparatory research, 100 mm Visual Analogue Scale(VAS) for chest discomfort, the Hwa-byung' major symptom was measured as the 1st evaluative instrument, and Likert scale for major symptom of Hwa-byung, Korean State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory(STAXI-K), Korean State-Trait Anxiety Inventory(STAI-K), Korean Beck's Depression Inventory(BDI-K) and Heart Rate Variability(HRV) were also measured as the 2nd evaluative instrument at the before treatment. Results : Clinical characteristics-vital signs & demographic characteristics showed no significant difference between both groups. The characteristics of disease-chief complaint, pattern Identification, period, etiological factor, etc, also showed no significant difference between both groups. There were almost no Coincidence between pattern identification & weight of Hwa-byung's major symptoms. The results of Chest PA, EKG and clinicopathologic examination showed no significant difference between both groups. There were no significant difference between both groups in all valuation scales; 100 mm Visual Analogue Scale for chest discomfort, the Hwa-byung' major symptom was measured as the 1st evaluative instrument, and Likert scale for major symptom of Hwa-byung, STAXI-K, STAI-K, BDI-K and HRV. Conclusions : We considered that establishment of experimental group and controlled group was objective and worth conducting this research. And this methodology is expected to be applied to the subsequent research. And also, we hope to make up for this study through various study and discussion.
