  • The purpose of this study was to examine the knowledge of university students on oral cancer, their attitude toward it and their belief about it. The subjects in this study were sophomores and juniors who majored in dental hygiene in Gyeonggi province. The findings of the study were as follows: (1) As for knowledge on oral cancer, 63.3 percent acquired it from school, and just 32.2 percent were aware of how to prevent oral cancer. And they looked upon operation as the best way to treat oral cancer. (2) With regard to attitude toward oral cancer, 45.4 percent had interest in oral cancer. (3) In relation to oral cancer belief, poor oral environments were cited as the first cause of oral cancer, and 91.3 percent felt oral cancer was one of serious diseases. And the majority of the respondents believed that it's possible to prevent and cure that disease, and regular oral examination was considered most important to prevent it. (4) As for correlation between dental health and oral cancer belief, they thought there was a weak positive correlation between the two. Those who were more concerned about oral health were more interested in oral cancer, and those respondents found oral cancer to be more grave. Their concern for oral health had a statistically significant relationship with their interest in oral cancer and their perception of its gravity.

  • The purposes of this study were 1) to investigate eating behaviors and patterns in breast cancer patients using a newly developed food frequency questionnaire and 2) to examine perception and use of nutritional information about breast cancer treatment among cancer patients treated with radiation therapy. Sixty breast cancer patients (case group) undergoing radiation therapy in Ajou University Hospital, Suwon, South Korea and 79 healthy women (control group) participated in this study. Mean age of subjects in the control group was $46.00{\pm}7.88$ years and BMI was $23.12{\pm}2.85kg/m^2$, and that of the case group was $50.06{\pm}11.64$ years and $22.32{\pm}3.24kg/m^2$. The results of eating behaviors showed several significant differences between control and case groups. Breast cancer patients ate meals on a more regular basis, on time, and more frequently compared to control subjects. In addition, they preferred more salty or spicy and bland food compared to healthy women. According to answers from the food frequency questionnaire, breast cancer patients consumed significantly lower amounts of boiled white rice, meats and processed food, fish and shellfish, coffee, milk, and cheese, whereas they consumed a significantly large amount of boiled multigrain rice, vegetable, seaweeds, soybean and processed food, and yoghurt compared to healthy women. This study also observed the way in which cancer patients and healthy control subjects obtain information about breast cancer treatment and its reliabilities. Results showed that healthy women did not hesitate to obtain information from mass media, while breast cancer patients would obtain nutritional information from specialists rather than mass media. Results of this survey confirmed that breast cancer patients avoided intake of red meat protein, even though they already recognized the importance of dietary protein intake for recuperation and treatment of the disease. These results could be used for future diet and nutrition guidelines for breast cancer patients.
