This study on Gobongdond Wetlands have hydrogeomorpholosic charateristics in the southern-west of Gogongsan. This study area have been dissected and deep weathered. in geology, this area show banded gneiss consisting of alternated felsis and mafic layers. in geomorphology this area have 3 slope that surplyed the surface water and ground water, but have a little water source by surface water. The most of Gobongdong wetland's water sources are aquifer or confined aquifer, so this wetlands have many seepages or discharges. The characteristics of Soil have retained the wetland's water. Deep weathering made the parents soil into clay minerals.(siallitization) This clay minerals have a high water table.

지난 11월 20일부터 시행 중인 청소년 보호법이 요즘 이슈가 되고 있다. 이는 그것은 바로 여성 가족부에서 추진 중인 '게임 셧 다운제'이다. 청소년들의 수면권과 학습권을 보호하자는 것인데, 학교에 다니는 청소년들이 방과 후 학원을 거쳐 늦은 시간에 귀가하면, 곧바로 수면이 아닌 온라인 게임을 하느라 제대로 된 휴식을 취하지 못한다는 것이다. 게임 셧 다운제는 만 9세 이상 16세 미만의 청소년을 자정부터 다음날 오전 6시까지 온라인 게임에 접속을 차단하는 것인데, 기존에 있는 정책들과 대립되는 문제가 있다. 본 논문에서는 게임 셧 다운제의 문제점에 대해 연구하는 것을 목적으로 한다.

This review describes the wide spectrum of paroxysmal events during sleep in infancy and childhood. The differential diagnosis between sleep-related non-epileptic paroxysmal events and epileptic seizures is difficult in special occasions. The nocturnal frontal lobe seizure and of the more common nonepileptic paroxysmal events during sleep are described. The main differentiating features characterizing parasomnias are: onset in early childhood, rare episodes of long duration, relatively lower frequency per night, absence of stereotypy, gradual disappearance of older age. Video-polysomnography is the gold standard to diagnosing and differentiating parasomnias from nocturnal frontal lobe seizures.

Psychogenic cough is barky, croupy, and explosive and disappears during sleep, and is not affected by antitussive drugs. Physical and radiological examinations of the respiratory tract and other routine laboratory test are normal. It is helpful to recognize this condition early in its course so that appropriate treatment can be instituted before iatrogenic problems resulting in multiple hospitalizations and chronic steroid use occur. We experienced two child and adolescent cases that showing typical psychogenic cough so reported it with the literatures review.

Purpose : This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sedatives for pediatric patients using noninvasive procedures. Methods : We performed a prospective study in 446 (aged 1 month-21 y) consecutive pediatric patients undergoing sedation to study noninvasive sedation techniques from February to August 2007. We reviewed demographic data, sedative drugs, dosage, complications, and successful rates of sedation according to the underlying diseases. Results : The overall successful rate of sedation was 435/446 (97.5%). The overall rate of successful sedation using chloral hydrate was 99.1% (420/424), and was 70.6% (12/17) and 60.0% (3/5) with ketamine and midazolam, respectively. Of the neurologic patients (n=172, aged 1 month to 21 years), 136 patients were sedated for EEGs, 5 patients for renal scans, and 31 patients for neuroimaging studies such as brain CT or MRI. All non-neurological patients (n=274, aged 1 month to 5 years) were diagnosed with urinary tract infection and sedated for renal scan. The overall success rate of sedation for this group was 99.6% (273/274). A total of 14 adverse events were observed (3.1%). Most adverse reactions were mild in severity and clinically insignificant. Conclusion : Using chloral hydrate alone has enough effect to sedate non-neurologic patients. However, neurologic patients in the severe course group, especially those suffering from intractable epilepsy, autism, or severe cerebral palsy, must be medicated with chloral hydrate 2 times at most; instead, injections of ketamine or midazolam in the early stage may result in a more promising outcome.

The purpose of this study was to examine symptom experiences, sleep quality, and quality of life in asthma patients and investigate any correlation among these factors. The study was conducted on 146 asthma patients that visited the Internal Medicine Department of Allergies at a hospital in Korea from March to June, 2015. Tools that were originally developed by Oh (1999) were used to measure the symptom experience of asthma patients. Sleep quality was measured using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) while quality of life was measured by the Short Form 36-Items Heath Survey (SF-36). The dates were analyzed by t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe test, and Pearson's correlation coefficient using the SPSS 20.0 program. Symptom experiences of asthma patients showed a positive relation with sleep quality (r=.468, p<.001) and negative relationship with quality of life; PCS (r=-495, p<.001) and MCS (r=-.411, p<.001). The symptom experiences of an asthma patient along with sleep quality and quality of life turned out to be correlated. Therefore, this study is expected to be utilized as a basis for the development of assessment tools and arbitration programs to elucidate symptom experiences of asthma patients from various aspects and enhance their sleep quality and quality of life.

Objectives: To explore the quality of life in patients with temporomandibular disorders and to evaluate it in terms of source and duration of the pain. Methods: A total of 61 patients with temporomandibular disorders participated in this study. According to pain source, they were divided into 2 groups, masticatory muscle pain (MMP) group and intracapsular pain (ICP) group. And each group was divided into acute phase group (pain duration <6 months) and chronic phase group (pain duration=6 months). The Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) was used to measure patients' quality of life. The scores for eight-scale profile and the physical component summary (PCS) and mental component summary (MCS) of the SF-36 were compared between groups (MMP vs. ICP and acute vs. chronic). Student t-test was used to analyze the difference of the scores of the SF-36 between MMP and ICP groups. Results: MMP group showed significantly lower score in the 3 scales of the SF-36 (Role limitations due to emotional problems, Vitality, Bodily pain) when compared to ICP group. In acute phase there was no significant difference between MMP and ICP group in PCS as well as MCS scores, but in chronic phase MMP group showed significantly lower MCS score than ICP group. Conclusions: The masticatory muscle pain in patients with temporomandibular disorders,negatively influences the quality of life especially in chronic phase, and the mental components of quality of life are significantly interfered in the TMD patients with chronic masticatory muscle pain.

경안천은 팔당호로 직접 유입되는 하천 중 유입량 대비 오염도가 매우 높아 상수원보호를 위한 특별관리가 요구되는 지역이다. 또한 경안천 유역은 수도권과 인접하고 있어, 도시화에 의해 토지이용이 지속적으로 변화되고 있다. 이러한 토지이용의 변화는 불투수면적을 증가시켜 강우시 유출 및 수질오염 발생량을 증가시킨다. 그러므로 불투수면적 증가에 따른 영향을 줄이기 위해서는 친환경 도시개발에 적용하고 있는 LID기법을 도입하여, 개발지역의 불투수면적 발생을 최소화하여야 하며 오염원 발생을 사전에 제어해야 한다. 그러나 도시개발시 무분별한 LID기법 도입은 정부의 막대한 예산 및 인력낭비를 초래하므로 현장적용 전 모델링을 통해 LID기법의 기대효과 및 비용을 산출하여야 하며, 도시 계획 수립시 가장 효과적인 LID기법을 제시하여야 한다. 따라서 효과적인 LID기법을 제시하기 위해서는 LID기법 평가가 가능한 SWMM모형을 이용해야 한다. 하지만 경안천 유역과 같이 유역 내 도시 와 비도시지역이 혼재되어 있는 우리나라의 대부분의 유역은 SWMM모형만으로는 유역의 강우-유출 및 수질 평가가 불가능하기 때문에, 유역 내 도시와 비도시지역의 유출 및 수질관리 평가가 가능한 SWAT-SWMM 연계모델을 이용하여 유출량 및 수질관리 효과를 분석해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 SWAT-SWMM 연계모델을 이용하여 LID기법 별 시나리오를 구축하였고, 시나리오별 유출량 및 수질오염 발생량을 모의하여 분석하였다. 분석결과 상당량의 유출량 저감 및 수질개선 효과가 나타났다. 또한 SWAT-SWMM 연계모델을 이용하여 모의된 수질자료는 환경부에서 제시하고 있는 단위유역 대표지점 수질환경기준 달성의 객관적인 평가를 가능하게 한다. 향후 LID를 적용한 SWAT-SWMM 연계모델을 이용하여 정부에서 규제하는 개발제한구역이 포함된 유역에서의 도시개발시 수질환경기준에 맞는 친환경적인 개발을 할 수 있을 것이라 기대된다.

수문조사 방법 및 기준은 각 국가별 기후, 유역 및 하천특성에 따라 다르게 제시되고 있으며, 세계기상기구(WMO)나 국제표준화기구(ISO)에서는 국제적으로 통용될 수 있는 기준을 제시하고 있다. 대부분의 국가에서는 국제기구 또는 수문조사 선진국(미국, 일본, 영국 등)에서 제시한 기준 및 방법을 도입하여 적용하고 있으며, 국내의 경우도 국제기준과 더불어 미국의 기준과 우리나라와 기후, 지형 및 하천특성이 비슷한 일본의 기준을 많은 부분에서 도입하였다. 유속계에 의한 유량측정 시 측선수를 늘리면 정확도를 높일 수 있지만 대하천 또는 수위(유속)가 급변하는 경우에는 측선수를 많이 해서 측정시간이 길어지면 오히려 정확도를 떨어뜨릴 수 있다. 특히, 국내에서 홍수시 신속한 측정에 사용되는 부자와 전자파표면유속계는 기존의 회전식유속계 측선수 기준을 적용하는 것은 적합하지 않다. 이에 따라, 우리나라 수문조사 전담기관인 한국수자원조사기술원에서는 전자파표면유속계 측선수 기준을 실무적으로 제시하고 있으나 이에 대한 기술적인 검토가 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 2016년~2020년까지 한국수자원조사기술원에서 측정된 58개 지점의 총 739개의 전자파표면유속계 측정성과에 대하여 수면폭 및 측선수 현황을 살펴보았다. 한국수자원조사기술원 일반기준 이상 측선수 비율은 646개(87.4%), 긴급기준 이상 측선수 비율은 739개(100.0%) 그리고 전체 평균값 이상 측선수 비율은 404개(54.7%)로 나타났다. 일반기준 이상 측선수가 많은 원인을 파악해보기 위하여 측선수를 최대구간유량비 20% 이상일 때까지 측선수를 10%씩 감소하여 산정된 유량의 변화를 검토하였다. 유량 변화 검토 결과 현장에서 유량측정 시 측선수의 등유량 배치, 최대구간유량비(20%) 및 불확도(±10%) 기준을 준수하기 위해서 기준 이상의 측선수를 확보하는 경향으로 판단되었다. 이러한 문제를 해소하기 위하여 측선수 감소에 따른 유량 편차율 ±10%와 불확도 ±10% 조건을 만족하는 수면폭 구간별 최소 기준을 제시하였으며, 이 기준을 적용할 경우 전자파표면유속계로 현장에서 보다 신속하고 정확한 유량측정을 수행할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Background : Continuous positive airway pressure(CPAP) is doubtlessly using as a medical treatment of choice for patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome. CPAP is effective in OSA patients as a physical "pneumatic pressure splint" mechanism. We have done this study for two purposes, first to seek for the factors to determine the optimal CPAP titer, second to predict the minimal CPAP titer using the determined factors. Methods: We studied a 72 OSA patients who were treated with CPAP. All of them were studied by using a two nights polysomnographic rests in hospital. We compared the patients requiring CPAP over $10cmH_2O$ with those who required CPAP under 5cm $H_2O$ to determine the factors affecting the minimal CPAP titer. Results : The high CPAP group is characterized by a significantly higher body mass index(BMI), apnea index(AI) and apnea and hyponea index(AHI) and significantly lower lowest $SaO_2$. Regression analysis using the optimal four variables resulted in the following prediction equation for CPAP titer. CPAPtiter=8.382 + 0.064 ${\times}$ BMI + 0.077 ${\times}$ AI - 0.004 ${\times}$ AHI - 0.077 ${\times}$ lowest $SaO_2$ When this regression equation was applied to the 72 patients, the mean CPAP titer as predicted by the above equation was $7.80{\pm}2.96$ mmHg. Compared this value with actually determined CPAPtiter, $7.93{\pm}4.00$mmHg, there was no significant difference between the two values. Conclusion: Obesity, apnea severity and lowest Sa02 were strongly correlated with CPAP titer. Linear regression equation for CPAP titer using these indices predicted very closely the actually measured values in the sleep laboratory.
