The purpose of current investigation was identified to the effects of swallowing training with surface electromyography biofeedback on swallowing function and dietary level, satisfaction in acute stroke patients with dysphagia. Sixteen acute stroke patients with dysphagia was participated in our study. All stroke paitents were allocated in randomly to experiemental group(n=8) and control group(n=8). Both group received traditional dysphagia therapy during 30min/day, five per week, for four weeks. experimental group was perfomed swallowing training with surface electromyography biofeedback, additionally 30 min/day, and control group received only swallowing training, additionally 30 min/day. Assessments evaluated Functional Dysphagia Scale(FDS) and Penetration-Aspiration Scale(PAS) for measure of swallowing function, and Functional Oral Intake Scale(FOIS) assessed for measure of dietary level. satisfaction assessed by using Visual Analog Satisfaction Scale(VASS). In results, after intervention both group improved significant on swallowing function, and dietary level, compared to before intervention(p<0.05). After intervention, satisfaction of both group was not significant difference(p>0.05). In comparison of change score between two group, experimental group improved significantly than control group in dietary level(p<0.05). Swallowing training with surface electromyography biofeedback may be a effective dysphagia therapy to improve on dietary level in acute stroke patients with dysphagia.

The purpose of this study attempted to collect basic data for development of an integrated self-management program for cancer survivors who completed cancer treatment. Self-management programs are divided into symptom management and physical activity management. Symptom management includes fatigue, sleep disturbance, pain, depression and anxiety. PubMed, CINAHL and EMBASE were used for searching guidelines. Based on the guideline quality evaluation, the final 8 guidelines were analyzed. The structured table was used to extract the screening subjects, timing, contents, subjects for comprehensive assessment and contents, and summarized contents related to the physical activity and exercise in non-pharmacological approach. As a result, after the completion of cancer treatment, all cancer survivors should be screened regularly using reliable and validated tools. In the case of fatigue, physical activity was recommended as the primary intervention, but it was recommended for other symptoms as adjuvant therapy. Therefore, Cancer survivors should be encouraged to be active in their physical activity, and maintain the moderate intensity physical activity as long as they have no complication related to the cancer treatment.

This study confirmed factors affecting sexual autonomy with self-esteem and sexual awareness as variables to lay the foundation for nursing intervention that helps female college students grow into subjects who can promote safe sexual activity and sexual health. A self-administered online survey of 139 students from three Colleges was conducted from February 15 to 21, 2021. The data were analyzed using a t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe test, Pearson's correlation coefficients and hierarchical multiple regression. The significant predictors of sexual autonomy were self-esteem (𝛽=0.393, p<.001), experience of dating (𝛽=0.213, p=.008) and sexual consciousness (𝛽=0.175, p=.028) and their explanatory power was 22.1%. In order for female college students to have autonomy as sexual subjects, they must be able to have a positive sense of self-esteem that values themselves and healthy sexual consciousness. Furthermore, they must be able to have a positive experience of socializing with the opposite sex. Therefore, individual efforts and social support to promote self-esteem are required, and educational mediation is needed to contribute to the promotion of sexual autonomy through efficient communication between men and women with a healthy sexual consciousness

The purpose of this study is to identify what factors have impacts on the amount of YouTube viewing. In doing so, usage type, children's levels of self-control on viewing, parent's perception of media contents, and parental mediation style were investigated by age. The result of the study showed no significant differences of the amount of use by the different age groups. There were, however, significant differences in terms of subscription status(non subscription based vs. subscription-based viewing), level of self-control, perception of content, and parent's mediations (technology, supervision, and guidance). Given the amount of YouTube use, the subscription status and parent's supervision were significantly influential factors for the age group of 3-4 years old. For the age group of 5-6, subscription status, levels of self-control, and mediation of parent's supervision and guidance were influential factors. For the age of 7-9, subscription status, the level of self control, and premium service were significantly influential. Finding similarities and differences in meaningful variables by age group suggests that different strategies should be used to reduce the amount of children's YouTube use. In addition, it raises the need for a more detailed classification of children's YouTube usage methods, which have not been addressed so far, and the need for research on the influence of these methods.

A decision tree algorithm should be modified to be suitable in distributed and collaborative environments for distributed data mining. The distributed data mining system proposed in this paper consists of several agents and a mediator. Each agent deals with a local data mining for data in each local site and communicates with one another to build the global decision tree model. The mediator helps several agents to efficiently communicate among them. One of advantages in distributed data mining is to save much time to analyze huge data with several agents. The paper focuses on a transfer technique among agents dealing with each local decision tree model to reduce huge overhead in communication among them.
