This study examined the possibility of clustering using 5-year-old children's basic learning ability and mothers' achievement expectation anxiety, and compared the impact of the children's self-regulation ability and mothers' learning involvement for each cluster. The subjects were 239 children (120 boys & 119 girls) aged 5 and attending 9 kindergartens in Seoul, Gyeonggi and Incheon, and also their mothers. The collected data were analyzed using non-hierarchical (K-means) cluster analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis. The findings of this study were as follows. First, the mother-child pairs were classified into four clusters of 'high learning ability-high expectation anxiety', 'high learning ability-low expectation anxiety', 'low learning ability-low expectation anxiety', or 'low learning ability-high expectation anxiety'group. Second, the level of child's self-monitoring, self-control, and mother's respect and love were significantly higher in the 'high learning ability-low expectations anxiety' group than the 'low learning ability-high expectation anxiety' group. Also, pressure for academic achievement was higher in the 'high learning ability-high expectation anxiety' group than the 'low learning ability-low expectations anxiety' group. Third, child's self-monitoring, mother's pressure for academic achievement, home learning activities, and respect/love for child predicted the clustering using children's basic learning ability and mothers' achievement expectation anxiety.

This study compared the health behaviors, health related clinical characteristics between individuals with Glycated Hemoglobin A1C≧6.5% and < 6.5% in 30~59yr. Factors that were associated with A1C were identified by sex, health behaviors, health literacy. This study was an observational study with a cross-sectional design based on data from 2019~2021 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Multiple logistic regression analysis was employed to compute the odds ratios of health behaviors to identify the risk factors for Glycated Hemoglobin. The prevalence of A1C≧6.5% among the total was 79.4%(weighted %, n=348). In the A1C≧6.5%, 71.8% were men. In univariate logistic regression for A1C≧6.5%, sex, duration with diabetes, and body mass index(BMI) were influencing factors. In multiple logistic regression by sex, the factors associated with A1C≧6.5 in women were as follows: education(OR 4.5; 95% CI:1.1, 18.5), duration with diabetes(OR 2.9; 95% CI 1.1, 7.9). Strategies should be targeted to improve health behaviors and clinical characteristics for those in their sex, women in low education level, duration with diabetes. Moreover, healthcare providers should understand the barriers to health behaviors and health literacy to effectively deliver healthcare service.

This study examines the relationships between the Theory of Planned Behavior(TPB) and entrepreneurial intention. Based on the TPB, we compare the on the effects of TPB on the Entrepreneurial intention with nationality and majors among university students in Korea and China. For empirical analysis, we collected total 359 survey data from university students majoring in Computer Science and Business area both in Korea and China. Empirical results show that personal attitude and perceived behavior control, except subjective norms, have positive relationships with Entrepreneurial Intention. These relationships have differ according to nationality and majors. China students have shown positive effect of personal attitude, without significants relationship with perceived behavior control. For students majoring in Computer Science have shown positive relationships with personal attitude and subjective norms, differing from those majoring in Business with personal attitude and perceived behavior control variables. This study suggests implications for entrepreneurial intention researches.

The purpose of this study is to identify factors related to the intent of quit smoking in adult hypertension and normal group. Data are based on the National Health and Nutrition Survey from 2010 to 2018. The survey was performed on 1,981 male adults(Hypertension group 407, Normal group 1,574). In the hypertension group, single was 0.226 times lower in the will to intention to quit smoking than the group spouses. Also, high school graduation was 2.102 times higher than middle school graduation, and the worse the subjective health status was, the higher the intention was to quit smoking. It was also 5.427 times higher than when people did not walk if the day they walked for more than 10 minutes a day was one day of the week. The characteristics of hypertensive patients should be understood. In quit smoking education, it is necessary to recommend health exercises and proper exercise to patients. It should be used as the basis data for a quit smoking policy for efficient personalized management of hypertensive patients.

This study was conducted to identify factors influencing weight loss efforts in hypertensive patients with obesity in Korea using data from the 2016-2019 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Weight perception, weight loss efforts, and weight control methods were investigated for 1,910 subjects. Data were analyzed using descriptive analysis, cross-tabulation analysis and logistic regression. Among obese hypertensive patients, 12.6% perceived their weight as normal. Weight loss efforts were 2.03 times (95% CI: 1.48 to 2.78) higher in people with overweight perception than those with normal weight perception, and 1.74 times (95% CI: 1.33 to 2.26) higher in women than in men. In addition, those with class 1 obesity were 1.50 times (95% CI: 0.85 to 2.65) higher than those with class 3 obesity, and those with class 2 obesity were 2.16 times (95% CI: 1.16 to 4.00) higher than those with class 3 obesity. These results suggest that weight management approaches for hypertensive patients with obesity should be individually designed according to weight perception, gender, and obesity class.

The aim of this study was to provide data for the relief of asthenopia during binocular vision by determining the characteristics of ocular function in adults. A total of 260 subjects were between the age of 19-35years. We measured individually the refractive error correction, pupillary distance, optical center distance, phoria, convergence, accommodation and the AC/A as well as the asthenopia during binocular vision using a questionnaire. After analysis of factors affecting asthenopia, we also examined the reductive effect of asthenopia in subjects who had asthenopia using prism. To determine the factors affecting asthenopia during binocular vision, statistic analyses were carried out the multivariate Logistic regression model. The results of this study were as follow. The asthenopia during binocular vision was found 26.9% of subjects. Multivariate logistic regression model was used to determine factors affecting binocular vision of myopia. When the accommodation and convergence were low compared to being high, when subjects had esophoria or there was more exophoria, and when AC/A was lower than the standard, the rate of asthenopia was higher. Therefore the accommodation, convergence and AC/A could be predictive factors for asthenopia. We used prism for subjects who had asthenopia during binocular vision, the results showed that the symptom of asthenopia was eased up to 74.3%.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer and a leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Although several diagnostic and therapeutic tools have been available, CRC remains difficult to complete cure because of insufficient understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying this disease progression. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNA molecules that strongly regulate gene expression via transcriptional and translational control mechanisms. Many crucial cellular pathways are frequently disrupted in cancer development process due to dysregulation of several miRNAs. Mir-31 functions as an oncogene that modulate expression of multiple cancer related genes. Thus, we aimed to demonstrate clinical relevance of miR-31 in human CRC. Quantitative RT-PCR analysis of miR-31 expression was performed in 175 CRC tissues and 16 normal colonic mucosa (NM). Next, we investigated clinical significances of miR-31 expression in various clinicopathologic features in CRC patients cohort. Mir-31 was significantly up-regulated in CRC tissues compared to NM. In CRC tissues, miR-31 expression level was significantly elevated in a stage-dependent manner, which was associated with poor survival in patients with CRC. High miR-31 levels in CRC tissues significantly correlated with poor prognosis (hazard ratio [HR]=2.4) as well as distant metastasis (odds ratio [OR]=2.3). In conclusion, we identified clinical significance of miR-31 expression in CRC. High miR-31 expression may be clinically able to use as a biomarker for CRC prognosis and predicting metastasis.
