This study was focused on experience of adult offsprings with disabled parents, and thereby on the evaluation of their family-of-origin environment. Adult offsprings's experience and understanding of the evolution in terms of subjects were explored. This study reviewed the effects of the family-of-origin environment and the analysis of data based on qualititative research depending on Saiki Greig Hill theory. The summary of this is as follows; perception and attitudes about disables parents tended to strengthen the steps 'process of recognition about disabled parents', 'process of escape about disabled parents',' precess of integration about disabled parents'. The alternative programs of the strengthen the steps 'process of integration about disabled parents' should be developed government policy support according to age group, ADL(activity of daily life) support according to disability status and emotional support with a focused on health family support center, public health center, religion meeting.

Objective: The dynamics of morbidity, disability and death rates due to malignant neoplasms in the population in Uralsk city of the Republic of Kazakhstan were studied for 2011-2015, with a focus on age and sex, as well as tumor location. Methods: Statistics for total morbidity, primary disability and mortality from cancer in the adult population of the city of Uralsk for 2011-2015 were calculated per 100 thousand. Estimation of morbidity was based on data from form - $N{\underline{o}}12$ ${\ll}$Report on the number of diseases registered in patients living in the area of health care organizations and patient population under medical observation". Evaluation of primary disability was based on form $N{\underline{o}}7$ ${\ll}$The distribution of newly recognized disabled by disease class, age, sex and disability groups" for 2011-2015 in Ural city and analysis of cancer was carried out using annual form 7 "Report on the sick, and diseases of malignant neoplasms". Result: The most common localizations of cancer were the trachea, bronchi, lungs, stomach and mammary glands. High death rates were noted for patients with cancer of the trachea, bronchi, lung, as compared to stomach and esophagus. Conclusion: The results of our investigation and data in the literature indicate that regional characteristics influence the impact of risk factors associated with cancer. An unfavorable environmental background contributes to ill health of urban populations, contributing to development of cancer. Moreover behavioral risk factors are very important, such as smoking, alcohol drinking, and an unhealthy diet. All these factors require urgent adoption of a package of measures for prevention, early detection and timely treatment. Detailed study of cancer is necessary to develop national programs and activities for prevention and control.

본 연구는 고령화연구패널 4차와 5차의 종단적 자료를 활용하여 Rowe와 Kahn(1997)의 성공적노화요소들의 삶의 만족도에 미치는 영향을 연구한 것이다. 본 연구의 대상은 65세 이상 노인1,385명이다. 분석방법으로는 인구사회적 변인, 위계적인 특성을 갖고 있는 질병과 장애의 예방, 신체 인지기능, 사회활동, 자녀관련 변인을 차례로 투입하는 위계적 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 노년기에는 여성과 남성의 평균수명의 차이로 인하여 배우자 유무에 따른 성공적 노화요소도 차이가 있으므로 배우자 유무에 따른 차이도 검증하였다. 본 연구에서 Rowe와 Kahn의성공적 노화요소인 질병과 장애의 예방, 신체 인지기능 유지, 적극적인 사회활동 외에도 중요한 성공적인 노화요소라고 할 수 있는 자녀관련 변인을 포함하여 분석하였다. 배우자 유무에따른 성공적 노화 요소의 차이검증에 의하면 배우자가 없는 노인이 배우자가 있는 노인보다연령이 높았으며 자녀동거도 두 배 이상 높았다. 규칙적인 운동과 기억력은 삶의 만족도에 유의한 영향을 미쳤다. 적극적인 사회활동 중에서는 친구, 친척, 이웃의 만남이 유의한 영향을미쳤으며 자녀관계 중 전화나 메일 등의 잦은 접촉은 유의한 영향을 미쳤으며 성공적 노화요소 중 삶의 만족도에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 요소로 나타났다. 연구결과에 의하면 성공적 노화요소 중에서도 조작정의에 따라 삶의 만족도에 미치는 영향은 다르게 나타났다.

본 연구에서는 장애인고용패널 2차웨이브 1차년도(2016년)부터 6차년도(2021년)까지 데이터를 활용하여 20세 이상 성인 임금 장애근로자의 장애수용과 직무만족도 사이의 종단적 변화양상과 상호적 인과관계를 분석하기 위해 자기회귀교차지연 모형을 적용하였다. 분석결과, 첫째, 장애 임금근로자의 이전 시점의 장애수용과 직무만족도는 각각 이후 시점의 장애수용(𝛽=.556~.610)과 직무만족도(𝛽=.554~.585)에 안정적으로 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 장애 임금근로자의 이전 시점의 장애수용은 이후 시점의 직무만족도(𝛽=.077~.090)에 그리고 이전 시점의 직무만족도는 이후 시점의 장애수용(𝛽=.087~.092)에 교차지연효과가 유의한 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 장애 임금근로자의 성별 집단에 따른 모형적합도 분석결과 시간의 흐름에 따른 장애수용과 직무만족도 사이의 자기회귀효과 및 장애수용과 직무만족도 사이의 교차지연효과의 차이가 유의하지 않게 나타났다.

This case report presents a 31-year-old male intellectual disability patient with problem behavior such as food refusal and temper tantrums. He was treated with the Korean traditional herbal medicine (Yokukan-san-gami) continuously for 56 days. The effects of the treatment were measured by the frequency of his problem behavior and the score of the Korean version of Aberrant Behavior Checklist (ABC). After treatment, his challenging behavior became reduced, and his ABC score had been decreased by 24.6%. The findings from this case suggest that the Korean traditional herbal medicine (Yokukan-san) could be effective for challenging behavior in patients with intellectual disabilities.

Extracts of adult worker bodies of Vespa simillima in 2 % NaCl or acidified methanol were administered orally to mice for 70 days. Following this period, memory at one-day and one-month periods, and the effects on scopolamine-induced amnesia were examined using a step-through passive avoidance task. Changes in MK-801-induced disability after 8 days of training, and in memory one month after the trial were also assessed. Mice treated with the 2% NaCl extract showed significant improvement in memory in the behavioral tests one month after the trial, whereas mice receiving the extract in acidified methanol, did not differ from the controls in any trial. The results inidicate that Vespa simillima contains substances acting favorably on the cerebral functions of mammals.

Objectives: Chronic diseases, including back pain, result in significant patient morbidity and societal burden. Overall improvement in physical fitness is recommended for prevention and treatment. Walking is a convenient modality for achieving initial gains. Our objective was to determine whether neighbourhood walkability, acting as a surrogate measure of physical fitness, was associated with the presence of chronic disease. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study of prospectively collected data from a prior randomized cohort study of 227 patients referred for tertiary assessment of chronic back pain in Ottawa, ON, Canada. The Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) was calculated from patient-completed questionnaires and medical record review. Using patients' postal codes, neighbourhood walkability was determined using the Walk Score, which awards points based on the distance to the closest amenities, yielding a score from 0 to 100 (0-50: car-dependent; 50-100: walkable). Results: Based on the Walk Score, 134 patients lived in car-dependent neighborhoods and 93 lived in walkable neighborhoods. A multivariate logistic regression model, adjusted for age, gender, rural postal code, body mass index, smoking, median household income, percent employment, pain, and disability, demonstrated an adjusted odds ratio of 2.75 (95% confidence interval, 1.16 to 6.53) times higher prevalence for having a chronic disease for patients living in a car-dependent neighborhood. There was also a significant dose-related association (p=0.01; Mantel-Haenszel chi-square=6.4) between living in car-dependent neighbourhoods and more severe CCI scores. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that advocating for improved neighbourhood planning to permit greater walkability may help offset the burden of chronic disease.

Purpose: This study was to describe the burden of aged parents caring for adult children with disabilities and related factors. Methods: The subjects were 123 caregivers aged over 65 who were caring for 18-year-old or older children with disabilities. The research tool of this study was a structured questionnaire on family burden. Data were collected from June 3 to 25, 2010, and analyzed by Cronbach's alpha, mean, standard deviation, t-test, and ANOVA using SAS 9.2 program. Results: The major findings of this study were as follows. Elderly parents caring for adult children with disabilities perceived a moderate level of burden. The burden from concern over their children's future was highest, and economic and physical burdens were higher when the parents were younger. Burden was significantly different according to parents' characteristics such as gender, perceived health status, disease, the costs of caring for disabled children, and children's characteristics such as disability rating, health status, and ADL. Conclusion: In order to reduce the burden of elderly parents caring for adult children with disabilities, we need to improve their health status and assess comprehensive policies.
