Objectives : The purpose of this study was to perform researches and analysis on the use of dental institutions, oral health behavior, the actual conditions of oral health care, and the oral health knowledge according to the rank of soldiers and officers and then to provide the basic data for the contents development of an oral health education to the military. Methods : The subjects in this study were 380 soldiers serving in Gyeonggi, Gangwon and Chungchong provinces. Results : In terms of the use of dental institutions, the soldiers visit the dental clinics most(56.5%), and the officers visit the military dental clinics most(52.7%)(p<0.05). In the oral health behavior, the most of the soldiers(46.7%) and the officers(58.1%) answer that they thought to be in good oral health. Regarding the actual conditions of oral health care, it is investigated that the most of the soldiers brush their teeth twice a day(46.7%) and the officers three times a day(58.1%). With the oral health knowledge, the officers get a point of $2.89{\pm}1.36$, which is higher than the soldiers'($2.47{\pm}1.27$), and the person who have an experience to take an oral health education, getting a point of $2.83{\pm}1.22$, have higher level of the knowledge than the unexperienced with $2.48{\pm}1.31$(p<0.5). Conclusions : It is thought to be necessary to provide the military camps with an oral health education and to develop the contents of an oral health education customized to them.

Background: New-onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE) occurs in people without a history of seizures. In these cases, the seizure causes are unclear, and the seizures are not controlled by standard treatment. Autoimmune encephalitis (AIE) can be a cause of NORSE. Cryptogenic NORSE may be associated with AIE, but antibodies associated with the condition have not yet been identified. Primary immunotherapy may not be effective for AIE. Rituximab has improved the prognosis in some cases. Case Report: We treated a cryptogenic NORSE patient with a combination of antiepileptic drugs and immunotherapy. On the 13th hospital day, the seizures were controlled, but the patient remained in a coma. The patient rapidly recovered after administration of rituximab started on the 26th hospital day. Conclusion: Rituximab may be helpful for cryptogenic NORSE patients in whom primary immunotherapy controls seizures, but fails to improve consciousness.

This article examines the reason why Indonesian Javanese are using their traditional medicine jamu. Tracing the cultural logic of Javanese, this study observes the space and the process in which the demand on jamu is culturally constructed. In order to address this, the article focuses on Javanese family and their royal court, the spaces where jamu originated from and has been used. Then, the discussion proceeds to identify jamu as a medium to construct rukun(harmony) and tentram(peace), as well as to express and ensure Javanese cosmology. Along with the research, the article argues that: 1) jamu is an embodiment of Javanese local knowledge system into which Javanese consciousness, notions, knowledge, and techniques integrate; 2) the health achieved by using jamu is what Javanese call tentram, which encompasses physical, mental, spiritual and social dimensions of health; 3) the health of tentram has the value of a resource that becomes the foundation to build a good, prosperous society.

The purpose of this study is to verify the effect of lateral position and chest percussion on gas exchange in the decreased level of conscious patients. The Subjects for this study were 21 patients' admitted in ICU of CNUH from Dec 18th, 1989 to Aug 4th, 1990. The Data was analyzed by paired t - test. The results of this study as follows ; 1) In comparison of supine position, good -lung dependent position and good - lung dependent with chest percussion, the difference of PaO ㆍ was statistically significant (P＜0.05). 2) In comparison of supine position, good -lung dependent position and good - lung dependent with chest percussion, the difference of A-a Do ㆍ was statistically significant (p＜0.05). En conclusion, the use of good -lung dependent position and chest percussion was effective nursing intervention on decreased level of conscious patients in ICU.

The volume of the functional clothing market is gradually growing in Korea. This study intended to identify the relationship among benefits sought in clothing, well-being health consciousness, age, and purchase intention of functional clothing. A survey data was collected from 380 male ranging from 20 to 59 years old and was analyzed SPSS 17.0. As a result, six clothing benefit factors were identified and labeled as attraction improvement, social position, figure flaw compensation, individuality, comfort, and economy. The influences of benefits sought in clothing on the purchase intention was found. Also well-being health consciousness and age moderated the effects of benefits sought in clothing on the purchase intention.

21세기 양돈산업의 전망은 환경문제, 사료생산, 동물복지 등 다양한 생산제한 요인에 의하여 국제적으로 돈육수급이 불안정할 것으로 예상되지만, 세계적으로 돼지고기 소비는 아시아 지역의 경기회복 등으로 증가추세에 있어 우리의 노력 여하에 따라서는 내수 소비확대 및 수출재개 등 경쟁력 있는 양돈산업으로 발전될 수 있다고 생각합니다. 또한 미래의 양돈산업 전개방향은 소비자 중심의 산업으로 변화되어 돈육의 건강개념과 영양적 가치 증진 및 식품의 안전성에 중점을 둘 것이며, 특히 소비자의 의식변화는 미래 양돈산업을 지배하는 결정적인 요인이 될 것입니다. 한편 유통경영 측면에서는 수직협력 시스템(Vertical co-ordination)과 효율적인 물류유통관리(MSCM) 시스템 도입이 가속화 될 것입니다. 즉, 소비자가$\codt$저마진에 의한 다량판매, 대규모 사육, 생산비 절감 기술개발에 주력할 것이라고 생각됩니다. 이에 따라 우리나라 양돈산업의 국제경쟁력 제고를 위하여 보다 시급히 해결되어야 할 질병$\codt$방역관리, 유통구조 개선, 고품질 돈육생산 및 위생$\codt$품질향상 분야에 있어서 중점 추진되어야 할 내용을 소개하고자 합니다.

Objectives: To identify and compare the health behaviors and health status of the elderly between urban and rural areas using the data of the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES). Methods: The study population comprised 3,823 elderly people aged 65 years or older who participated in the $4^{th}$ KNHANES (2007-2009). The areas were classified into "large cities," "cities," and "rural areas" using the administrative and residential areas. The health behaviors and health status of the elderly between the rural and urban areas were compared using a complex sample design with the Rao-Scott chi-square test and weighted multiple logistic regression analysis. Results: Compared to large cities, the odds ratios (ORs) (95% confidence interval [CI]) of rural areas were as high as 1.58 (1.25-2.01) for the influenza vaccination and as low as 0.47 (0.37-0.59) for flexibility exercises, 0.56 (0.38-0.81) for muscular exercises, and 0.76 (0.62-0.92) for obesity. The ORs (CI) for osteoarthritis and diabetes mellitus were as low as 0.81 (0.66-0.99) and 0.70 (0.55-0.89), respectively. Conclusions: The health behaviors and health status of the elderly are better in rural areas than in urban areas despite the fact that the socioeconomic conditions in rural areas are poorer that those in urban areas. These findings suggest that programs suitable for residential areas should be developed and that studies to explain the differences in residential areas are needed.

Various kinds of living circumstances are making population structure of Korean changed. That is, number of the children is decreased and that of the aged is increased. It is predicted that population of the children and the aged will be almost same until 2020. With above, as the expectation of the aged on healthy living might be increased, some special programs for the aged will be needed strongly. At this point, Korean aged population might be economically poor, comparing with other generation. In general, economic factor affects the subjective living-satisfaction and health status of them. Moreover, educational status, household shape and family tieing also affect their health status. According to the foreign articles, health status of the aged might be related to income, educational status, job, employed or/not, marital status, family structure, sex, and childhood condition. decrease of the income or unemployment could make the death rate of the aged higher. During childhood, discordance among the family might affect their health status after. IGUR is also important factor to affect the adulthood health. Positive life style of the aged would lessen their unequality of the health among them. Nutritional status of the Korean aged population might be indicated under the nutritional recommendation. It is affected by their income, education level, social class, and residing place. (Korean J Nutrition 33(1) : 86-101, 2000)
