Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16 MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with two complete blood count analyzers (Sysmex WE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data transmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology.

Purposes: 우리나라 공공의료기관들의 경영실적 보고에 따르면 대부분의 공공의료기관들이 만성적자로 인한 경영난 문제를 겪고 있는 실정이다. 이는 공공의료서비스 제공 등이 주요 원인이겠지만 그럼에도 공공의료기관들의 경영효율화 문제는 지속적으로 지적되고 있음은 공공연한 사실이다. 이에 본 연구는 고정비 성격이 강한 인적자원관리비용과 경영성과 간의 관계를 분석하여 공공의료기관의 경영성과 개선을 위한 경영적 함의를 제공하고자 하였다. Methodology: 분석자료는 2014년부터 2019년까지 39개 지역거점 공공병원의 재무자료를 이용하였고, STATA SE 12.0을 사용하여 다중회귀분석과 패널회귀분석을 실시하였다. Findings: 다중회귀분석을 통한 단면연구 결과에서는 인건비가 높을수록 경영성과가 높은 경향을(2014년 의료수익:1.523/ 2015년 의료수익: 2.002, 의료수익의료이익률: 0.002/ 2016년 의료수익: 1.223) 보였으나 패널회귀분석을 통한 종단연구 결과에서는 복리후생비가 높을수록 경영성과가 의미있게 높은 경향을(의료수익: 3.232582/ 의료수익의료이익률: 0.0014502) 보였다. 이는 인건비는 경영성과에 단기적인 효과가 있는 반면 복리후생비는 경영성과에 장기적인 효과가 있음을 반영하는 것이라고 볼 수 있다. Practical Implication: 본 연구는 이러한 결과를 기반으로 장기적인 효과가 있는 복리후생비의 중요성을 제시하고, 공공의료기관의 경영성과에 영향을 미치는 인건비와 복리후생비의 특성 파악을 통하여 효과적인 인적자원관리방법을 위한 경영적 함의를 도출하였다는 점에서 의의가 있겠다.

This study is a descriptive study comparing the nursing work environment, job stress and turnover intention of pediatric ward nurses and general ward nurses. The subjects of this study were 174 nurses with more than one year of experience working in small hospitals, general hospitals and university hospitals with more than 200 beds in G-city. Data collection was conducted from August 2016 using structured questionnaires to measure nursing work environment, job stress and turnover intentions. Results: There were no significant differences in nursing work environment between pediatric ward nurses and general ward nurses, and there were significant differences in job stress. Especially, the more nursing work environment of pediatric ward nurses was, the higher the job stress, the higher the turnover intention. In other words, pediatric ward nurses are more likely to have higher job stress than regular ward nurses because they are stressed not only from the health problems of the child but also from the family members. Therefore, communication and self-achievement that can reduce the job stress of the pediatric ward nurse and a variety of measures are needed.

This study is a qualitative study to understand the meaning and essential structure of the experiences of Tae-um (Workplace bullying) experienced in hospital organizations for nurses. The participants were interviewed by selecting 10 persons who agreed to participate in the research through SNS in the workplace with the cooperation of the hospital. The collected data were analyzed using Colaizzi's phenomenological method. As a result of the study, Tae-um in the hospital organization of clinical nurses was divided into 4 categories(Taking the terrible first step, A series of hardships that never end, Hang on to myself, Wings flight of for adaptation) and 16 It was derived from themes. In conclusion, it was confirmed that Tae-um, not only new nurses, but even nurses who have accumulated careers, are still in progress, so they are adapting to the difficult hospital organization. Therefore, if a psychological support program for nurses is introduced, it will contribute to solving the Tae-um problem and establishing an organizational culture where nurses are respected.

A diverse range of stresses such as heat, cold, salt, ethanol, oxygen starvation or nutrient starvation induces same stress-responsive proteins. This general stress response enhances bacterial survival significantly. In Bacillus subtilis and closely related Gram-positive bacteria Listeria monocytogenes, the general stress response is controlled by the alternative transcription factor ${\sigma}^B$. The activity of ${\sigma}^B$ is regulated post-translationally by a signal transduction network that has been extensively studied in B. subtilis, and serve as a model for L. monocytogenes. The proposed model of L. monocytogenes signal transduction network is similar to that of B. subtilis, but the energy stress pathway is missing. More than 150 general stress proteins belong to ${\sigma}^B$ regulon of B. subtilis and L. monocytogenes. In both bacteria, ${\sigma}^B$ function is primarily important for resistance to diverse stresses. In addition, ${\sigma}^B$ function contributes to the control of important virulence genes in food-borne pathogen L. monocytogenes. Therefore, understanding of the general stress response is important not only for bacterial physiology, but also for pathogenicity.

Objectives : Although subclinical depression symptoms are associated with suicidal idea, most research have focused on clinical depression such as major depressive disorder or dysthymia. The aim of this study is to investigate network structure of depressive symptom and to reveal which symptoms are associated with suicidal ideation. Methods : We used part of data from the seventh Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Participants were between 19 and 65 years of age (N=8,741). Network analysis with Isingfit model is used to reveal network structure of depressive symptoms and most central symptom and edges assessed by patient health questionnaire (PHQ-9). Results : The most two central symptoms were psychomotor activity and suicidal ideation. The strongest edge was psychomotor activity-suicidal ideation. Suicidal ideation also has strong association with depressive mood and worthlessness. Conclusions : These results suggest that psychomotor activity and suicidal ideation can serve as treatment target for subclinical depression and psychomotor activity, worthlessness and depressed mood may be important factor for early intervention of suicidal ideation.

Alternaria longissima Deighton & Macgarvie was recorded for the first time on seeds of sesame in low percentages. Detailed descriptions of the habit characters, conidial morphology and cultural characters are described. This fungus, which is generally regarded as a saprophyte, was shown to be a pathogen to sesame plants producing zonate leaf spots, foliage blight, stem necrosis and spots on capsules, but does not show any pathogenicity to rice and sorghum plants.

In this paper, We are evaluated about bio-signal between general workers and nuclear medicine workers which is more radiation exposure relatively. In order to reciprocal evaluated two group, we experimented nuclear medicine workers in Chung-Buk National University Hospital at department of nuclear medicine and worker in Chon-Nam National University Hospital at CT room, general radiographic room, medical recording room, receipt room, general office room. Used of experimental Equipments as follows, for a level of radiation measurement by pocket dosimeter which made by Arrow-Tech company, for heart rate and blood pressure measurement by TONOPORT V which made by GE medical systems company, for heat flux and skin temperature and energy expenditure measurement by Armband senseware 2000 which made by Bodymedia company. Result of experiment obtains as follows: 1) Individual radiation exposure is recorded 3.05 uSv at department of nuclear medicine and order as follows CT room, general radiograpic room, medical recording room, receipt room, general office room. Department of nuclear medicine more 1.5 times than other places. 2) Radiation accumulated dose is not related to Heat flux, Skin temperature, Energy expenditure. 3) Blood pressure is recorded equal to nuclear medical workers, general officer, general people about systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure. Compared to blood pressure between nuclear medical works which is more radiation exposure and other workers was not changed. Consequently, more radiation exposed workers at nuclear medicine field doesn't have hazard.
