The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of family conflict and self-control on school maladjustments of early adolescents. Subjects of this study consisted 662 middle school students drawn from 4 middle schools in Cheong-ju city. The results of this study were as follows: First, younger students' maladjustment to teachers was influenced by variables such as school year, economic levels, conflict strength between parents, conflict settlement between parents, reliability between parents and children, communication between parents and children and self-control, etc. In other words, students' maladjustment to teachers was high at the students in the 2nd year rather than in the 1st year, low economic level, high conflict strength between parents that younger students perceived, low conflict settlement between parents, low reliability between parents and children, high hostility between parents and children and low self-control. Second, younger students' maladjustment to the class was influenced by variables such as gender, school year, economic levels, conflict strength between parents, reliability between parents and children, communication between parents and children, and self-control, etc. In other words, young students' maladjustment to the class was high at the 2nd year students rather than at the 1st year students, low economic level, high conflict strength between parents, low reliability between parents and children, poor communication between parents and children, and low self-control. Third, younger students' maladjustment to rules was influenced by variables such as school year, economic level, conflict level between parents, hostility between parents and children, and self-control, etc. In other words, younger students' maladjustment to rules was high at the 1st year students rather than the 2nd year students of middle school, low economic level, high conflict strength between parents, high hospitality between parents and children and low self-control, etc. Fourth, younger students' maladjustment to friends was influenced by variables such as conflict strength between parents, conflict settlement between parents, hospitality between parents and children, and self-control, etc. In other words, younger students' maladjustment to friends was high at high conflict strength between parents, low conflict settlement between parents, high hospitality between parents and children and low self-control, etc. In the study, self-control was found to be the most important variable at younger students' maladjustment to teachers, class and rules, etc, and conflict settlement between parents was found to be the most significant variable at younger students' maladjustment to friends.

Background: $QuantiFERON^{(R)}$-TB Gold In Tube (QFT-G IT) has been used for diagnosing latent tuberculosis infection and active tuberculosis (TB) since 2007. However, there has not been enough data on QFT-G IT for universal use in children. In this study, we evaluated the clinical usefulness of the QFT-G IT in pediatric practice. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the clinical records of 70 patients younger than 18 years of age who had taken QFT-G IT and had a tuberculin skin test (TST) between July 2007 and July 2009 at Wonju Christian Hospital. The subjects were divided into two groups, asymptomatic TB exposure group and disease group. Four patients who were taking immunosuppressants during the study period were excluded. Results: A total of 66 immunocompetent children were included in this study. Among 27 asymptomatic children who had contact histories of TB, 6 (22.2%) were found to be positive by QFT-G IT. Eleven (40.7%) and 5 (18.5%) children were found to be positive by TST with cutoff values of ${\geq}5mm$ and ${\geq}10mm$, respectively. Agreement was fair to good between QFT-G IT and TST (${\kappa}=0.59$: cutoff value ${\geq}5mm$, ${\kappa}=0.7$: cutoff value ${\geq}10mm$). In disease group, 14 patients (35.9%) were diagnosed with active tuberculosis, 8/14 (57.1%) were positive on TST and 9/14 (64.3%) on QFT-G IT. The positive rate of acid-fast bacilli smear, TB-polymerase chain reaction, and culture for tuberculosis was 11% (1/9), 27.3% (3/11) and 33.3% (3/9), respectively. Conclusion: Our data support that the QFT-G IT can be used as an additional diagnostic tool for latent and active tuberculosis infection in children.

Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate the immune responses of children with moderate and severe novel influenza A virus (H1N1) pneumonia, and to compare their clinical and immunological findings with those of control subjects. Methods: Thirty-two admitted patients with H1N1 pneumonia were enrolled in the study. The clinical profiles, humoral and cell-mediated immune responses of the 16 H1N1 pneumonia patients who were admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit (severe pneumonia group), 16 H1N1 pneumonia patients admitted to the pediatric general ward (moderate pneumonia group) and 13 control subjects (control group) were measured. Results: Total lymphocyte counts were significantly lower in patients with H1N1 pneumonia than in the control group (P=0.02). The number of CD4+ T lymphocytes was significantly lower in the severe pneumonia group ($411.5{\pm}253.5/{\mu}L$) than in the moderate pneumonia ($644.9{\pm}291.1/{\mu}L$, P=0.04) and control ($902.5{\pm}461.2/{\mu}L$, P=0.01) groups. However, the number of CD8+ T lymphocytes was significantly higher in the severe pneumonia group ($684.2{\pm}420.8/{\mu}L$) than in the moderate pneumonia ($319.7{\pm}176.6/{\mu}L$, P=0.02) and control ($407.2{\pm}309.3/{\mu}L$, P=0.03) groups. The CD4+/CD8+ T lymphocytes ratio was significantly lower in the severe pneumonia group ($0.86{\pm}0.24$) than in the moderate pneumonia ($1.57{\pm}0.41$, P=0.01) and control ($1.61{\pm}0.49$, P=0.01) groups. The serum levels of immunoglobulin G, immunoglobulin M and immunoglobulin E were significantly higher in the severe pneumonia group than in the 2 other groups. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that increased humoral immune responses and the differences in the CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocyte profiles, and imbalance of their ratios may be related to the severity of H1N1 pneumonia in children.

Purpose: To evaluate the potential utility of $^{123}I$-metaiodobenzylguanine ($^{123}I$-MIBG) scintigraphy and $^{18}F$-fluorodeoxyglucose ($^{18}F$-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) for the detection of primary and metastatic lesions in pediatric neuroblastoma (NBL) patients, and to determine whether $^{18}F$-FDG PET is as beneficial as $^{123}I$-MIBG imaging. Methods: We selected 8 NBL patients with significant residual mass after operation and who had paired $^{123}I$-MIBG and $^{18}F$-FDG PET images that were obtained during the follow-up. We retrospectively reviewed the clinical charts and the findings of 45 paired scans. Results: Both scans correlated relatively well with the disease status as determined by standard imaging modalities during follow-up; the overall concordance rates were 32/45 (71.1%) for primary tumor sites and 33/45 (73.3%) for bone-bone marrow (BM) metastatic sites. In detecting primary tumor sites, $^{123}I$-MIBG might be superior to $^{18}F$-FDG PET. The sensitivity of $^{123}I$-MIBG and $^{18}F$-FDG PET were 96.7% and 70.9%, respectively, and their specificity were 85.7% and 92.8%, respectively. $^{18}F$-FDG PET failed to detect 9 true NBL lesions in 45 follow-up scans (false negative rate, 29%) with positive $^{123}I$-MIBG. For bone-BM metastatic sites, the sensitivity of $^{123}I$-MIBG and $^{18}F$-FDG PET were 72.7% and 81.8%, respectively, and the specificity were 79.1% and 100%, respectively. $^{123}I$-MIBG scan showed higher false positivity (20.8%) than $^{18}F$-FDG PET (0%). Conclusion: $^{123}I$-MIBG is superior for delineating primary tumor sites, and $^{18}F$-FDG PET could aid in discriminating inconclusive findings on bony metastatic NBL. Both scans can be complementarily used to clearly determine discrepancies or inconclusive findings on primary or bone-BM metastatic NBL during follow-up.

사회복지관련 예산의 급격한 증가가 함께 사회복지관련 사업도 다양한 분야로 확대되고 있다. 이러한 시점에서 사회복지정책을 수행하는 정부 및 지자체에 의한 지원과 보조사업 추진의 당위성 및 논거를 명확히 할 필요가 있다고 사료되며, 본 연구는 후생경제학 입장에서 장애인복지관련 예산이 국가경제 및 지역경제에 미치는 경제적 효과를 살펴보았다. 장애인복지정책의 달성을 위한 예산 지출은 기업 및 개인의 소비행위를 연속적 및 직 간접적으로 파생시키게 되며, 본 연구에서는 산업연관분석을 이용하여 장애인복지예산의 경제적 효과로써 생산, 부가가치, 고용, 취업 등에 얼마나 기여하는가를 계량적으로 추정하여 제시하였다. 수도권 3개 지자체의 장애인복지관련 예산지출에 의해 연간 1조 3천억원의 생산을 유발시키며, 8,015.9억원의 직간접 부가가치를 파급시키는 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 17,673.2명의 고용 및 26,825.2명의 취업을 창출시키는 것으로 추정되었다. 본 연구 결과는 장애인 사회복지예산을 소비지출로 인식하는 사회분위기 속에서 사회적 논란 야기 및 재정압박 요인으로 작용하는 현시점에서 복지 분야에 대한 정부 및 지자체의 장애인복지정책에 의한 개입 지원 보조의 당위성 논의의 타당성은 결국 실증적인 분석을 통하여 뒷받침될 수 있느냐에 달려 있다고 사료되며, 본 연구는 이를 위한 기초적 연구로서의 역할이 기대된다. 또한 복지예산은 소멸성 지출이 아니며 우리나라 사회 경제에 다양한 영향을 파생시키는 중요한 산업임을 본 연구에서 확인할 수 있었으며, 지속적 연구를 통해 정책적 지원 및 사회적 합의가 필요하다.

Purpose: Meckel's diverticulum (MD) has various clinical manifestations, and diagnosis or selectection of proper diagnostic tools is not easy. This study was conducted in order to assess the clinical differences of MD diagnosed by scintigraphic and non-scintigraphic methods and to find the proper diagnostic tools. Methods: We conducted a retrospective review ofthe clinical, surgical, radiologic, and pathologic findings of 34 children with symptomatic MD, who were admitted to Gachon University Gil Medical Center, Inha University Hospital, and The Catholic University of Korea, Incheon St. Mary's Hospital between January 2000 and December 2012. The patients were evaluated according to scintigraphic (12 cases; group 1) and non-scintigraphic (22 cases; group 2) diagnosis. Results: The male to female ratio was 7.5: 1. The most frequent chief complaint was lower gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding in group 1 and nonspecific abdominal pain in group 2, respectively. The most frequent pre-operative diagnosis was MD in both groups. Red blood cell (RBC) index was significantly lower in group 1. MD was located at 7 cm to 85 cm from the ileocecal valve. Four patients in group 1 had ectopic gastric tissues causing lower GI bleeding. The most frequent treatment modality was diverticulectomy in group 1 and ileal resection in group 2, respectively. Conclusion: To diagnose MD might be delayed unless proper diagnostic tools are considered. It is important to understand indications of scintigraphic and non-scintigraphic methods according to clinical and hematologic features of MD. Scintigraphy would be weighed in patients with anemia as well as GI symptoms.

Background: Tobacco consumption has become pandemic, and is estimated to have killed 100 million people in the 20th century worldwide. Some 700,000 out of 5.4 million deaths due to tobacco use were from India. The era of global modernization has led to an increase in the involvement of women in tobacco consumption in the low income and middle-income countries. Tobacco consumption by females is known to have grave consequences. Objectives: To assess: (1) the tobacco use among urban and rural women; (2) the discrepancy in the knowledge, belief and behavior towards tobacco consumption among urban and rural women in Durg-Bhilai Metropolitan, Chhattisgarh, Central India. Materials and Methods: The study population consisted of 2,000 18-25 year old young women from Durg-Bhilai Metropolitan, Chhattisgarh, Central India, from both urban and rural areas. Data were collected using a pretested, anonymous, extensive face to face interview by a female investigator to assess the tobacco use among women and the discrepancy in the knowledge, belief and behavior towards tobacco consumption among urban and rural individuals. Results: The prevalence of tobacco use was found to be 47.2%. Tobacco consumption among rural women was 54.4% and in urban women was 40%. The majority of the women from urban areas (62.8%) were smokers whilst rural women (77.4%) showed preponderance toward smokeless tobacco use. Urban women had a better knowledge and attitude towards harms from tobacco and its use than the rural women. Women in rural areas had higher odds (1.335) of developing tobacco habit than the urban women. Conclusions: Increased tobacco use by women poses very severe hazards to their health, maternal and child health, and their family health and economic well-being. Due to the remarkably complex Indian picture of female tobacco use, an immediate and compulsory implementation of tobacco control policies laid down by t he WHO FCTC is the need of the hour.

타인과 긴밀한 정서적 유대감을 가지려는 인간 성향인 애착은 내적작동모델로 기능하면서 타인과의 상호작용의 질을 결정하는 요인으로 보고되고 있다. 따라서 어머니의 성인애착은 자녀와의 상호작용인 양육행동에 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 뿐만 아니라 어머니의 만족도 역시 긍정적 심리 요인으로 기능하면서 양육행동에 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 그러나 어머니의 애착인 성인애착이, 그리고 삶의 질을 반영하는 삶의 만족도가 양육행동 중 애정적 양육행동에 더 민감한 영향을 미치는지 또는 거부적 양육행동에 더 영향을 미치는지에 관해서는 충분한 정보가 부족한 실정이다. 이에 이 연구에서는 다음과 같은 연구문제를 통해 어머니의 성인애착과 삶의 만족도가 애정적 또는 거부적 양육행동에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 살펴보고자 한다. 첫째, 유아기 자녀를 둔 어머니의 성인애착과 삶의 만족도는 애정적-거부적 양육행동에 유의한 영향을 미치는가? 둘째, 유아기 자녀를 둔 어머니의 애정적-거부적 양육행동에 대한 성인애착과 삶의 만족도의 상대적 영향력은 어떠한가? 이를 위해 대구경북지역내 유아교육기관에 다니는 만 3, 4, 5세 유아의 어머니 331명을 연구대상으로 질문지 조사를 통해 자료수집하였으며 SPSS PC(15.0 version)프로그램의 단순 및 표준적 중회귀분석을 통해 유의수준 .05미만에서 자료분석하였다. 연구결과 첫째, 유아기 자녀를 둔 어머니의 애정적 양육행동은 성인애착이 높을수록, 삶의 만족도가 높을수록 높게 나타났다. 반면 유아기 자녀를 둔 어머니의 거부적 양육행동은 성인애착이 낮을 때, 삶의 만족도가 낮을 때 높게 나타났다. 둘째, 유아기 자녀를 둔 어머니의 애정적 양육행동에 대한 성인애착과 삶의 만족도의 설명력은 성인애착이 상대적으로 높게 나타났다. 유아기 자녀를 둔 어머니의 거부적 양육행동 역시 삶의 만족도보다 성인애착에 의해 보다 높게 나타났다. 이는 애정적 또는 거부적 양육행동에 있어 어머니의 성인애착이 삶의 만족도보다 더 영향력 있음을 시사하는 것이다. 이와 같은 연구 결과 외에 중요하게 고려해야 하는 것은 유아기 자녀를 둔 어머니의 성인애착과 삶의 만족도는 애정적 양육행동보다 거부적 양육행동을 설명하는 힘이 더 크다는 것이다. 이는 유아기 자녀를 둔 어머니의 애정적 양육행동을 높이기보다 거부적 양육행동을 예방하기 위해 성인애착과 삶의 만족도에 보다 더 많은 관심을 가질 필요가 있음을 시사하는 것이다.
