Pilots are exposed to carcinogenic substances like radiation, ozone, exhaust gas from jet engine, and electromagnetic wave, their environment can be very hazardous. I designed this study to know if there is any difference between pilots and general people in cancer incidence. I analyzed cancer cases between 1999 and 2008, and investigated their age, site, aircraft types, and sex. I compared pilot's cancer incidence with general people during same periods. Statistical analysis was performed with standardized incidence ratio (SIR). 10 cases were high performance pilots, 5 cases were low performance pilots. The average age when the diagnosis had been made was $39{\pm}7.8$. Pilot's incidence ratio was lower than people's, the most common cancer was kidney, and there was no lung cancer. Cancer is influenced by gene and environment, each country has different patterns. The low incidence ratio in Korean pilots might be due to "healthy worker effect". I think we should perform further investigation on kidney cancer.

어디서나 접속할 수 있는 인터넷의 광역성과 최근 들어 인터넷을 통한 전자상거래의 급진전, 네트웍을 통한 다양한 형태의 원격 접속 확대 등으로 이제 많은 기업들이 통신비가 상대적으로 저렴하면 서도 기밀성이 보장되는 인터넷을 기반으로 하는 Internet Protocol Virtual Private Network(IP VPN) 도입을 서두르고 있다 VPN은 공중망 인프라를 공유하여 구축된 가상 사설망을 의미한다. IP VPN으로 기업은 본사와 지사를 연결하는 Intranet, 협력사와 연결되는 Extranet 그리고 최근 들어 급증하고 있는 이동 근무자와 재택 근무자를 회사에 안전하게 연결시킬 수 있는 원격 접속 등을 경제적으로 구축할 수 있다. 또한 광케이블과 동축케이블이 혼합된 Hybrid Fiber & Coaxial(HFC)망이 초고속인터넷, 디지털방송, 주문형비디오(VOD) 등의 멀티미디어 서비스를 수용하기에 가장 좋은 방안으로 최근 각광을 받고 있다. HFC망은 기존의 CATV망을 기반으로 하므로 신규 투자비가 적게 들면서도 다양한 형태의 고속 데이터 통신이 가능하다. 이에 본 논문에서는 HFC망에서의 IP VPN의 성능을 전송 프로토콜과 암호화 알고리즘을 달리 하면서 어떤 요소가 성능에 얼마나 영향을 주는지와 요소간 상호작용이 어떻게 일어나는지, 또한 어떤 조합으로 VPN 통신을 할 때 가장 좋은 성능을 보이는지를 비교 분석한다.

The safe operation of military aircraft is crucial for national defense to prevent unnecessary loss of combat power. With the advancement of technology, the proportion of accidents caused by mechanical defects is decreasing compared to the beginning of aviation history, but the proportion of accidents caused by human factors is increasing. Therefore, it is necessary to identify factors that enhance flight safety behavior from various perspectives and explore related mechanisms. In this study, we examined the relationship between Air Force aircrew's calling and their flight safety behavior. With a sample of 357 Air Force aircrew, we found a significant positive relationship between calling and flight safety behavior, with affective commitment and moral duty mediating this relationship in parallel. We discussed theoretical and practical implications of the study based on these results.

호산구는 염증 반응에 의해 활성화되며, 주로 기생충 감염이나 알러지 질환 등에 대한 면역 작용을 담당한다고 알려져 있다. 호산구 증가증은 약물 반응, 알러지, 국소적인 기생충 감염 등에 의한 경우가 많지만, 자가면역성 질환이나 종양에 의한 경우도 있다. 최근 연구를 통해 위염의 대표적인 원인균 중 하나인 유문나선균 역시 위점막에서 나타나는 조직 호산구 증가증의 원인이 될 수 있다고 밝혀지고 있으나, 유문나선균에 의한 호산구 증가증 발생 기전이나 빈도는 아직까지 확립되지 않고 있다. 위점막 내 호산구 침윤과 동반되는 위염은 복통, 오심, 구토, 설사, 장폐색 등을 일으킬 뿐만 아니라, 아토피성 피부염, 천식, 위식도 역류, 염증성 장질환 등의 발생과 관련이 있다고 보고되고 있다. 위염 및 다양한 관련 질환에 의한 증상은 공중 근무자들의 임무 수행 능력을 저하시켜 항공기 사고를 발생시킬 수 있는 가능성을 가지고 있다는 점에서 항공의학적으로 매우 중요하며, 실제로 호산구성 위염이나 유문나선균 감염의 치료 여부가 공중 근무자에게 일시적 또는 영구적 비행임무정지를 부과할 수 있는 기준이 되기도 한다. 본 연구에서는 대한민국 공군 장병 환자를 대상으로 내시경을 통해 얻은 위점막 조직 내 호산구수를 측정하고, 이를 위점막 표면의 유문나선균 존재 유무와 관련지어 보았다. 111명 중 20명의 환자에서 한 고배율 시야 당 30개 이상의 호산구가 관찰되었고, 63명의 환자의 위점막 표면에서 유문나선균을 확인하였다. 또한 위점막 내 호산구의 밀도와 유문나선균의 존재 간의 관계는 통계학적으로 유의하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 대한민국 공군 장병을 대상으로 하여 조직 호산구 증가증과 유문나선균의 빈도 및 상호 관계를 최초로 분석했다는 점에서 의의가 있으며, 추후 유문나선균이 어떤 기전으로 위점막 조직 내 호산구의 증가에 관여하는지에 대한 연구를 진행하기 위한 기초 자료로서 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

현재의 산업 상황은 제한적인 내부 네트워크의 사용만으로는 충분히 뒷받침할수 없 는 새로운 업무형태로 바뀌었다. 기업에서는 내부 네트워크의 구성뿐만 아니라 증가하는 지 사나 이동 근무자나 재택근무자들을 지원하기 위한 네트워크 확장이 필요하게 되었다. 그러 나 기존 네트워크 구성에서 사용하던 전용선이나 PSTN을 이용하는 방법은 많은 비용 때문 에 기업에 과중한 부담을 가져오게 되었으며 이에 대한 해결책으로 VPN이 제안되었다. VPN은 공중망을 매개로 한 가상적인 네트워크 구성으로서 네트워크 확장에 소요되는 비용 을 크게 절감하고 네트워크 관리를 용이하게 하였다. 특히 근래에 인터넷 사용자가 급격하 게 증가하면서 보안 솔루션으로서의 IP 기반 VPN에 대한 관심이 집중되고 있다, 본 고에서 는 VPN 기술의 전반적인 내용에 대해 소개하고 VPN의 핵심기술이라 할수 있는 터널링 기 술을 IPsec 중심으로 살펴보기로 한다.

Targeting dental hygienists who work in clinical division and public dental health division, this study was to investigate and analyze their working environment by work division, so that it could make basic material available in the interest of efficiently employing technical manpower specializing in public health and their better work environment in the future. 1. In terms of the sociodemographic characteristics of respondents, it was found that employees in public health were married in higher percentage and had higher age with longer career than those in clinical division, and it was noted that the former group had higher percentage in longer academic career than the latter group. 2. In terms of working days and hours, it was found that dental hygienists employed in public health worked 5 days a week(95.8%), while those in clinical division worked 6 days a week(70.3%). That is, the latter group worked longer days a week than the former group. 3. In terms of annual regular holidays, it was found that dental hygienists in public health division mostly took 11 to 20 days off a year, while those in clinical division mostly took 1 to 3 days off a year. That is, the former group is significant different in annual holidays from the latter group. 4. In terms of pay and allowances, it was found that most of public health group(89.4%) got monthly pay, while most of clinical group(65.4%) got the pay in annual salary. 5. In terms of reorientation experiences, it was found that 63.5% of total respondents didn't have any opportunity of domestic and overseas reorientation. And in terms of financial sponsorship for reorientation, it was noted that 54.0% of total respondents were financially supported for their reorientation by the institution they work for. 6. In terms of in-house welfare environment for married employees, it was found that 85.5% respondents ever faced no discrimination in job opportunities. In terms of the availability of maternity leave, it was noted that 69.2% respondents used the maternity leave, and 74.8% respondents used the maternity leave during 3 months. 7. In terms of quitting job, it was found that 46.8% respondents had ever left their job(public health group: 53.8%, clinical group: 45.8%), while the remaining 53.2% respondents(public health group: 46.2%, clinical group: 54.2%) had never left their job. Here, it is found that the employees in public health accounted for somewhat higher percentage in quitting job than those in clinical division. In terms of the number of leaving job, it was noted that most(50.8%) respondents left their job once, and there were similar distributions in quitting job between these both groups. In terms of the reason for quitting job, it was found that 29.2% respondents left their job due to desire for better pay(allowance) and working conditions.

The purposes of this study were to investigate risk factors of low back pain in civil airmen and to use this information as basis for the back rehabilitation. Subjects of this study were randomly selected 276 civil airmen who had been employed at four airports in Seoul. These data were analyzed by $X^2$ test, t-test, ANOVA, and multiple logistic regression using SAS. The results were as follows: 1) The prevalence of low back pain among 276 civil airmen was 64.9%. 2) The most common cause of low back pain was load lifting (stewardess), long sitting (aircrew A), and long sitting plus training (aircrew B). 3) There were no statistically significant associations among age, height, body weight, and low back pain. 4) No statistically significant relationships were found among the average monthly working time, total working time, average monthly rest time, working year and low back pain. 5) There was statistically significant relation ship between abnormal posture and low back pain (p<.01). 6) There was statistically significant relation ship between fatigue and low back pain among stewardess and aircrew B. 7) There was a statistically significant relationship between job satisfaction and job-related stress (p<.05). 8) In stewardess, higher satisfaction score was associated with less likelihood of low back pain (odds ratio = .80). The results of this study indicate that civil airmen developed chronicity of low back pain due to unfit seat, poor habitual posture, fatigue symptom, and stress or other risk factors. Therefore, there is a need to improve the working environment for the prevention of posture-related low back pain.
