This study was conducted to determine family factors related to obesity of high school students. A descriptive correlational study was conducted with 384 high school students in I metropolitan city. Data were collected from February to April of 2015 using self-report structured questionnaires. Questionnaires included weight, height, individual characteristics of subjects and their familial characteristics. Collected data were analyzed by multiple logistic regression. Logistic regression analysis revealed that male gender (aOR = 4.37; 95% CI [1.26, 15.16]), having a non-regular paternal job (aOR = 3.10; 95% CI [1.15, 8.40]), and not being in a two parent family (aOR = 3.52; 95% CI [1.29, 9.61]) were statistically significant contributors to obesity. These results indicate that it is necessary to improve social awareness regarding the obesity risk of male adolescents. Health care providers should recognize the importance of family factors such as parental socioeconomic status and family structures.

The purpose of the study was to evaluate patients' compliance with the hemodialysis and to investigate relationships between compliance, physiological parameters, and health-related quality of life. Data were collected from 220 patients at 27 local hemodialysis clinics. Compliance was measured with Sick-role Behavioral Compliance including interdialytic weight gain, serum potassium, and phosphorus. Health-related quality of life was assessed using Medical Outcomes Study Short Form-12. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-tests, ANOVA, and Pearson correlation. Total compliance scored 2.92 out of 4 points on average. Among fifteen items, 'I keep on my dialysis schedule(time and date)' was the highest score. There were differences in the scores for compliance according to age, marital status, and dialysis period. Statistically significant correlations were found between four compliance items(medication, infection control, sleep, eating vegetable and fruit) and health-related quality of life. The results of the study indicate that a patient-centered approach would be helpful to improve quality of life in patients with hemodialysis. Healthcare providers need to understand the patients' perspectives by identifying what is important to patients and taking patient values and priorities into account.

This study was conducted to investigate the prevalence, severity or impact of symptoms in hemodialysis patients and its relationship with self efficacy and family support to identify factors influencing their symptoms. A cross-sectional design was used and the subjects were 243 patients undergoing hemodialysis at local units. The patients were Dialysis Symptom Index (DSI), a questionnaire about the presence and severity of symptoms. The data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, independent t-test, Pearson coefficient correlation and multiple regression. There were significant differences in the total score of symptoms according to age and duration of hemodialysis. Symptoms score had significant negative correlations with family support (r=-.35, p<.001) and self-efficacy (r=-.16, p=.006). Family support explained 16.0% of the variance in symptoms score. Hemodialysis patients experience many distressing symptoms, which have negative effects on quality of their life. Promoting family support can help to reduce and control distressing symptoms in hemodialysis patients.

The rapid advancement of computing technology has triggered the need for fast data I/O processing and high-performance storage technology. Next generation memory technology, which we refer to as new memory, is anticipated to be used for high-performance storage as they have excellent characteristics as a storage device with non-volatility and latency close to DRAM. This research proposes NTL (New memory Translation layer) as a technology to make use of new memory as storage. With the addition of NTL, conventional I/O is served with existing mature disk-based file systems providing compatibility, while new memory I/O is serviced through the NTL to take advantage of the byte-addressability feature of new memory. In this paper, we describe the design of NTL and provide experiment measurement results that show that our design will bring performance benefits.
