The purpose of this study is to identify the prevalence of impaired fasting glucose among non-diabetic middle-aged men in Korea and to identify factors related to impaired fasting glucose. The research method is a descriptive research study using data of 545 men aged 40-64 who participated in the 8th Korean Health and Nutrition Examination Survey(KHANES) in the second year(2020). For data analysis, frequency and percentage, mean and standard deviation, Rao-Scott 𝛘², t-test, and logistic regression analysis were performed using the complex sample analysis method of SPSS/WIN 23.0 program. The results of this study showed that the prevalence of impaired fasting glucose was 44.77%, and the frequency of drinking(OR=1.531, 95% CI: 1.01-2.33) and triglycerides(OR=1.002, 95% CI: 1.00-1.01) were significantly related factors for impaired fasting glucose. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a program for the prevention and management of impaired fasting glucose in middle-aged men, and this program should include drinking habits and triglycerides management strategies.

This study aims to assess how effective environmental management can be accomplished through monitoring of environmental conditions in patient discharge rooms within healthcare facilities through direct observation and the use of fluorescent markers. From March to July 2013, this study evaluated 448 check-out beds in wards and intensive care units before and 494 after intensive environmental monitoring activities. The collected data were analyzed using the SPSS 21.0 program. According to the study's findings, direct observation increased from 95.2% prior to the implementation of intensive environmental monitoring activities to 98.9% following the implementation, which was statistically significant. The non-detection rate of fluorescent markers exhibited an increase from 96.1% prior to the commencement of intensive environmental monitoring activities to 98.0% following their implementation. However, it should be noted that this observed increase was not deemed statistically significant. In light of the results of this research, it is imperative to evaluate the effectiveness of environmental management by employing a variety of assessment methods, including direct observation and fluorescent markers.
