The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of physical activity on women's health. I conducted literature reviews for meta-analyses and randomized controlled trials with the target diseases including cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, cancers osteoporosis, and pregnancy outcomes. Women who were active had less total mortality and smaller incidence of hypertension, coronary heart diseases, and stroke. Exercise was better than drug therapies in preventing diabetes and effective in preventing colon and breast cancers. Exercise can reduce the risks of falling injury in elderly women. Walking during pregnancy was not harmful to the mothers and their infants, and desirable to prevent the complications of pregnancy or weight gain after pregnancy. Physical activity at work and leisure-time showed similar effects on women's health. Based on these results, moderate-intensity physical activity should be recommended to all women, Resistive, muscle strength, and balance-training exercise also can be recommended. Doctors' advices are effective to make women exercise, especially using handouts or motivational interviewing techniques. It is desirable to recommend to peform other health promotion measures together such as smoking cessation, weight control and diet control.

Passive smoking is the involuntary inhalation of tobacco smoke by a person, especially a non-smoker, who occupies and area with smokers or a smoker. Passive smoking may cause eye and nose irritation, sore throat, headache, cough to everyone, and it is known that non-smokers have the same kinds of illness with smokers. Smoking rate among the adults aged over 20 in Korea is higher than that of the US or European conturies. Therefore we suppose that Koreans may be exposured to passive smoking than the people of other conturies. It is necessary that people have the knowledge on the heath problems caused by passive smoking and on prevention from the involuntary inhalation of tobacco smoke. I propose that the smokers should be informed the importance of smoking cessation.

Purpose: The aim of this study is to report a case of oral bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ) resulting in implant failure. Methods: A patient suspected of having BRONJ was referred to the Department of Periodontology, Kyung Hee University School of Dentistry for the evaluation and treatment of exposed bone around implants. Results: The patient, who had been taking oral bisphosphonates (BPs) for about a year, was successfully treated with systemic antibiotics, chlorhexidine mouth rinse, explantation, and surgical debridement of necrotic bone. Conclusions: The results of this case suggest that a patient taking BPs orally should be treated cautiously. Appropriate management including cessation of BPs and respective dental treatment may reduce the development of BRONJ.

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common disorder characterized by recurrent cessation of breathing due to complete or partial upper airway occlusion during sleep. The incompetent tone of palatal, pharngeal, and glossal muscles which fail to maintain airway patency during sleep causes narrowing of the airway dimension and increased resistance of breathing. The identification of the sites of upper airway obstruction in patients with OSA is important in understanding the pathogenesis and deciding the treatment modality of snoring and/or OSA. Various upper airway imaging modalities have been used to assess upper airway size and precise localization of the sites of upper airway obstruction during sleep. Dynamic imaging modalities enabled assessment of dimensional changes in the upper airway during respiration and sleep. This article focused on reviews of various upper airway imaging modalities, especially dynamic upper airway imaging studies providing important information on the pathogenesis of OSA.

Background. In Seoul, Korea, 70% of all adult males are reported to be smokers, and guidelines to smoking cessation generally include ways to help smokers avoid situations of smoking temptation. However the phenomenon of smoking temptation has been scarcely studied. Therefore, it is critical to acquire a better under-standing of smoking temptation for more effective nursing practice. Aim. This study intends to analyze the subjectivity of smoking temptation. Design. Q-methodology, which applies a scientific method to subjectivity, was utilized. Findings. Five distinct smoking temptation modalities, on Q-types, emerged from the Q-sort: 1) Urge to facilitate interpersonal relation; 2) Psychological desire for tranquility; 3) Habituation in social life; 4) Habituation in daily life; and, 5) Nicotine craving combined with daily routine. Conclusion. It is hoped that analysis of the five types of smoking temptation identified in this study will contribute to the body of knowledge and a better understanding of why smokers are addicted to smoking.

The kinesiologic electromyograhy(KEMG) is one of the most common use in physical therapy for understanding normal function and dysfunction of the neuromuscular system. Physical therapists concerned to patterns of muscle response, position, type of muscle contraction, onset and cessation of activity, the level of muscle response in relation to effort, and type of muscle contraction. Also they are use KEMG to assess the exercises for facilitate or for inhibit specific muscle activity. However there is a few references that provide information of KEMG Thus, the purpose of this article is for the use and interpretation of KEMG data. This article will guide beginning researchers for collecting, managing and analyzing of KEMG data.

의미 있는 '하나의 경험'은 성장을 가져온다. 존 듀이는 '하나의 경험'을 하나의 예술작품이 만족스럽게 완결에 이르게 되고, 계속해서 고민하던 어떤 문제에 대한 해결책이 마침내 도출되는 것이라 말한다. 독서를 하거나 책을 쓰는 것 등도 언젠가는 종결에 이르게 되는데, 이러한 경우의 종결은 단순히 중지(cessation)가 아닌 하나의 과정의 결과인 것이다. 이러한 경험은 하나의 통일체(a whole)이며 그것 자체의 개별화된 특질과 자급자족(self-sufficiency)을 갖추고 있다. 바로 이러한 특징을 갖는 경험을 '하나의 경험'이라고 부르는 것이다. 학교 현장의 교육과정에서 '하나의 경험'이 되는 배움이란 교육적인 의미와 가치로서 인정되고 평생 기억에 남는 교육 경험 활동이라 할 수 있다. 학습자 입장의 배움, 자발성에 근거한 들뢰즈의 '배움' 이론이 '하나의 경험'으로 기억되는 의미 있는 가치로의 가능성을 탐구하고자 한다.

Traumatic injuries to an immature permanent tooth may result in cessation of dentin deposition and root maturation. Endodontic treatment is often complicated in premature tooth with an uncertain prognosis. This article describes successful treatment of two traumatized maxillary central incisors with complicated crown fracture three months after trauma. The radiographic examination showed immature roots in maxillary central incisors of a 9-year-old boy with a radiolucent lesion adjacent to the right central incisor. Apexogenesis was performed for the left central incisor and revascularization treatment was considered for the right one. In 18-month clinical and radiographic follow-up both teeth were asymptomatic, roots continued to develop, and periapical radiolucency of the right central incisor healed. Considering the root development of these contralateral teeth it can be concluded that revascularization is an appropriate treatment method in immature necrotic teeth.

The control performances for active re-reflecting wave control suggested in the previous paper have been verified in cases of regular and irregular waves in a real two dimensional wave basin. For regular waves, the control performances are investigated in terms of reflection coefficients, expected amplitudes of propagating waves and wave absorbing capabilities after cessation of wave generation, compared with those of no-control cases. For irregular waves similar verification procedures were adopted. Though there are certain constraints due to the geometrical non-linearity of wave maker and certain nonlinear characteristics due to the near field and gravity waves these experiments show that the control logic could be useful in realizing re-reflecting wave control in conditions of real wave basin.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between dual smoking and mental health. Methods: This study was conducted on 5,879 Korean adults, and a logistic regression analysis was conducted to investigate the relationship between smoking type and mental health. Results: The types of smoking were surveyed as 'dual smoking' 6.1%, 'electronic cigarette' 1.7%, 'general smoking' 12.1%, and 'non-smoking' 80.1%.. The risk of diagnosing depression in the dual smoking group was 2.87 times higher than in the non-smoking group, the risk of depression was 1.66 times higher than in the non-smoking group, and the risk of stress was 1.62 times higher. Conclusion: Even in adulthood, health education such as smoking prevention education and smoking cessation education should be conducted.
