This study selected the fifth and sixth graders of elementary school in Jeollanamdo who can express their opinions of safety consciousness and understand the items of questionnaire as the population. It selected 10 elementary schools under the supervision of Jeonnam Board of Education and sampled 700 students randomly from 2-3 classes in the 5th and the 6th grade. One preliminary survey was conducted to revise and complement the contents and forms of questionnaire with 70 students of a school from Apr. 1 to 6, 2004 and this study was conducted from Apr. 10 to 30, 2004. Data of this study were collected by explaining the purport of study to subjects after obtaining approval of principal and teacher of the school and distributing questionnaires. Total 700 questionnaires were distributed and 681 were collected (97%) and 602 were used for final analysis except 79 lacking responses. The results of this study are as follows. According to demographical characteristics of subjects, 'male' students were 302(50.%) and 'female' students were 300(49.8%) by sex and 'the 5th graders' were 285(47.3%) and 'the 6th graders' were 317(52.7%) in grade distribution. Residents at 'apartment house' were 406(67.4%) in residence type, 'going to school by foot' was 477 students(79.2%), 'high school graduates' were 297(49.3%) in fathers' education, 'high school graduates' were 366 (60.8%) in mothers' education, 'professional and office workers' were 231(38.4%) in fathers' job, 'full-time workers' were 283(47.0%) in mothers' job, and the number of siblings was one except myself in 343 students(57.0%). Respondents on the level of class showing 'good' were 340(56.5%) and those on the degree of adaptation to school life showing 'active' were 349(58.0%). On the characteristics related to safety education, 360(59.8%) responded it was 'very necessary', on the frequency of safety education at school for last one year, 339(56.3%) responded they had 'once or twice', on the frequency of safety education by parents, 279(46.3%) responded they 'often' had it, on the level of safety practice by parents, 347(57.6%) responded they practiced it 'frequently', on the source of knowledge of safety, 223(37.0%) responded they got it from 'parents, siblings and relatives', on the degree of recognizing the need of safety education textbooks, 295(38.5%) responded 'it was needed', on the recognition of necessity of teacher for safety education, 271(45.0%) answered it was very necessary', and on the recognition of qualification of teacher for safety education, 370(61.5%) answered it was 'paramedic'. The mean score of safety consciousness of subjects was 2.72 (SD. 21) of full score 3, having high score over mean score. According to each area, the area showing the highest safety consciousness was safety of fire(2.83), followed by home safety(2.76) and first-aid treatment(2.76), traffic safety(2.71), play and leisure safety(2.66) and school safety(2.56).

A review was undertaken to obtain information on the sustainability of pig free-range production systems including the management, performance and health of pigs in the system. Modern outdoor rearing systems requires simple portable and flexible housing with low cost fencing. Local pig breeds and outdoor-adapted breeds for certain environment are generally more suitable for free-range systems. Free-range farms should be located in a low rainfall area and paddocks should be relatively flat, with light topsoil overlying free-draining subsoil with the absence of sharp stones that can cause foot damage. Huts or shelters are crucial for protecting pigs from direct sun burn and heat stress, especially when shade from trees and other facilities is not available. Pigs commonly graze on strip pastures and are rotated between paddocks. The zones of thermal comfort for the sow and piglet differ markedly; between 12-22$^{\circ}C$ for the sow and 30-37$^{\circ}C$ for piglets. Offering wallows for free-range pigs meets their behavioural requirements, and also overcomes the effects of high ambient temperatures on feed intake. Pigs can increase their evaporative heat loss via an increase in the proportion of wet skin by using a wallow, or through water drips and spray. Mud from wallows can also coat the skin of pigs, preventing sunburn. Under grazing conditions, it is difficult to control the fibre intake of pigs although a high energy, low fibre diet can be used. In some countries outdoor sows are fitted with nose rings to prevent them from uprooting the grass. This reduces nutrient leaching of the land due to less rooting. In general, free-range pigs have a higher mortality compared to intensively housed pigs. Many factors can contribute to the death of the piglet including crushing, disease, heat stress and poor nutrition. With successful management, free-range pigs can have similar production to door pigs, although the growth rate of the litters is affected by season. Piglets grow quicker indoors during the cold season compared to outdoor systems. Pigs reared outdoors show calmer behaviour. Aggressive interactions during feeding are lower compared to indoor pigs while outdoor sows are more active than indoor sows. Outdoor pigs have a higher parasite burden, which increases the nutrient requirement for maintenance and reduces their feed utilization efficiency. Parasite infections in free-range pigs also risks the image of free-range pork as a clean and safe product. Diseases can be controlled to a certain degree by grazing management. Frequent rotation is required although most farmers are keeping their pigs for a longer period before rotating. The concept of using pasture species to minimise nematode infections in grazing pigs looks promising. Plants that can be grown locally and used as part of the normal feeding regime are most likely to be acceptable to farmers, particularly organic farmers. However, one of the key concerns from the public for free-range pig production system is the impact on the environment. In the past, the pigs were held in the same paddock at a high stocking rate, which resulted in damage to the vegetation, nutrient loading in the soil, nitrate leaching and gas emission. To avoid this, outdoor pigs should be integrated in the cropping pasture system, the stock should be mobile and stocking rate related to the amount of feed given to the animals.

이 연구의 목적은 여성 노인들을 대상으로 낙상자와 비낙상자 간 보행 시 하지의 국부적 안정성과 근 활동 양상을 후향성 접근을 통해 규명하고자 했다. 이를 위해 보행 시 낙상 경험이 있는 20명과 낙상 경험이 없는 20명이 선정되었다. 트레이드밀 보행 시 3차원 운동 캡쳐 시스템과 무선 근전도 장비를 이용해 운동학적 좌표와 근전도 신호를 수집했다. 운동좌표를 이용해 무릎과 발목 관절의 3차원 각 변위를 산출했으며, 이들의 국부적 안정성을 Lyapunov 지수를 통해 계산했다. 근 활성도는 근전도 신호를 이용해 대퇴직근과 대퇴이두근, 전경골근과 비복근을 살펴봤으며, 또한 이들의 동시 수축 지수를 정량화했다. 연구 결과 무릎 관절의 내·외전 움직임의 국부적 불안정성은 비낙상자 집단이 낙상자 집단보다 컸으며(p<.05), 전경골근의 근활성도는 낙상자 집단이 비낙상자 집단보다 적게 나타났다(p<.05). 또한 비복근과 전경골근의 동시 수축 지수는 낙상자 집단이 비낙상자 집단보다 컸다(p<.05). 그 밖에 낙상자 집단에서 비복근과 전경골근의 동시 수축 지수와 발목 관절의 굴신 움직임에 대한 국부적 안정성과는 유의한 상관관계를 보였다(p<.05). 따라서 보행 시 낙상을 예방하기 위해서는 무릎 관절의 내·외전 움직임에 관여하는 근들을 강화하고, 발목 관절의 굴신에 작용하는 비복근과 전경골근을 균형적으로 강화할 필요가 있다고 판단된다.

비닐하우스 재배농민들이 일반농민에 비해 신체증상 호소율이 더 높은 지 조사해 보기 위해 경상북도 성주군의 6개면 지역에서 무작위로 추출된 비닐하우스 재배농민 250명과 일반농민 142명을 대상으로, 일반적 특성, 농작업양상 그리고 농부증의 각 증상에 대한 호소빈도에 대해 1993년 7월 5일부터 10일까지 6일간에 걸쳐 면담조사와 혈압측정을 하였다. 비닐하우스 재배농민이 일반농민에 비해 평균 연령이 적었고, 동거 가족수가 많았고, 농사경력은 짧았으며, 연평균 일일 노동시간과 연간 노동일수가 많았고 연간 가구당 평균 수입이 약 2.6배 많았다(p<0.01). 조사기간인 1993년 6월 한 달에 비닐하우스 재배농민은 농약을 평균 3.4회 살포하여 일반농민보다 약 1.7배 더 많이 살포했고, 년간 16회 이상 살포하는 것으로 나타났으며, 최근 한 달간 농약살포후 중독 경험률은 비닐하우스 재배농민 가운데 39.6%나 되어 일반농민의 25.4% 보다 더 많았다. 농부증 8개 증상 중 비닐하우스 재배농민과 일반농민 남녀가 공통적으로 가장 많이 호소하는 증상은 요통, 수족감각둔화, 어깨결림, 그리고 어지러움이었다. 농부증 양성률은 비닐하우스 재배농민 남자 22.1%, 여자 43.4%, 일반농민 남자 23.2%, 여자 50.7% 로 비닐하우스 재배농민과 일반농민 간에는 뚜렷한 차이가 없었으나 여자들이 남자에 비해 농부증 양성률이 약 2배 더 높았고, 다중 지수형 회귀분석으로 다른 요인의 효과를 조정했을 때는 3.0배 더 높았다(p<0.01). 두 농작업군 모두에서 연령이 증가할수록 농부증 양성률이 증가하는 경향을 보였고, 1세 증가시 농부증 위험도는 3% 증가하였다(p<0.05). 또 최근 한 달간 농약살포 후 중독을 경험했던 농부들이 경험하지 않았던 농부들에 비해 농부증 위험도는 3.7배 였다(p<0.01). 고혈압 유소견율은 일반농민 남녀 각각 22.4%, 13.7%로 비닐하우스 재배농민의 13.5%, 12.0% 에 비해 높게 나타났으며, 고혈압과 농부증 사이에 일정한 관련성은 없었다. 본 연구의 결과로는 비닐하우스 재배농민들이 일반농민들에 비해 특별히 신체증상호소율이 높지 않았다. 중요한 건강문제와 가능한 대책은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 농약살포후 중독이 문제가 되므로 농약을 쓰지 않거나 더 적게 쓰고도 농사를 지을 수 있는 영농법 및 농약을 좀 더 안전하게 살포할 수 있는 방법의 개발, 고온에서도 착용하기 좋고 보호 성능이 좋은 보호구의 개발이 시급히 요구되며, 농약살포시 환기요령과 보호구 착용방법에 대한 교육 등의 강화도 고려되어야 할 것으로 생각된다. 둘째, 농부증 증상 중 흔한 증상들은 농작업 자세 및 과도한 노동에 기인되었을 가능성이 있으므로 신체에 부담을 줄일 수 있는 농기구를 개발하고, 주기적인 휴식 및 운동을 권장해 볼 만하다. 세째, 고혈압 유소견율이 15% 전후로 높으므로 고혈압 관리사업의 강화가 요구된다.

The intention of this study is to apprehend the con. tents and methods of herb remedies that are commonly conducted when there are health-problem cases of ENT, eyes, teeth and skin. Methods of this study are divided into two stages : 1) For a period of six months from December 1994 to June 1995, some 40 persons who are believed to be well versed with herb remedies have been randomly chosen, and we made a survey on herb remedies by symptoms: and 2) we have endeavored to make their grounds evident through the studies on literatures with the focus on the basic data collected. Their results are as follows: 1) When one feels a pain in ears, such herb remedies are employed as pouring the vapor into ears, which is made by steaming Alaska pollack, or as applying or wiping with the juices of radish or the ginkgo, or' alum. Applying the radish juice is effective for sterilization and fever removal: and applying the ginkgo juice is effective for cleanliness. But, plastering alum, sesame oil or castor oil, or pouring the vapor of Alaska pollack into ears are perhaps effective but do not have any pharmacologic grounds. 2) When one bleeds at the nose, such kinds of herb remedies are applied as stimulating nose or head with cold water, pressing nose or ridge of nose, or filling up nares with mashed mugworts. In addition, they have utilized garlic or leeks. Such methods as stimulating with cold water or just pressing nose and ridge of nose is based on reasonable grounds, i.e. vasoconstriction and vascular compression ; and applying mashed garlic on the sole of foot is good for the circulation of Qui ; and the use of mugworts and leeks is based upon the pharmacological function of hemostasis. 3) When one feels a sore throat such kinds of herb remedies are employed as gargling or rinsing throat with brine, drinking hot gruel or water, or drinking the juice of mugwort, radish, ginger or Chinese quince. Gargling with brine or drinking the juice of mugwort, radish or ginger is based upon the pharmacological function of pain alleviation, fever removal, and detoxication. 4) When a boil is formed in mouth, such herb remedies are applied as spreading honey, brine or alum water, and taking gall nut, Chinese matrimony vine, lotus root, etc, for drugs. Spreading honey, brine or water that is made by infusing gallnut, Chinese matrimony vine, lotus root is based upon such functions as hematosis, astriction, antibacterial, and antiphlogistic, Alum, eggplant and licorice are said to be effective, but their pharmacological effects have no grounds. 5) When one has conjunctivitis such herb remedies are commonly applied as irrigation with brine and dropping breast milk in eyes. Moreover, such other drugs are used as plantain. shepherd's purse, and purslane, etc. The use of brine, breast milk, plantain, shepherd's purse and purslane is based upon such functions as sterilization, antiphlogistic, disinfection and pain relieving. Eriocaulon sieboldianum, bean stem, bean pod and narcissus leaves are said to be effective, but their pharmacological action have no basis. When one has a stye, such herb remedies are applied as extracting eyelashes, stimulating by a massage of middle finger, third finger or big toe, as well as sear ing with a heated bamboo comb that is fine-toothed. Other than these, plantain and nightshade's nuts are used as drugs for it. Extracting eyelashes corresponds with exclusing suppurative node and draining the stye of pus ; and the use of plantain is based upon disinfection: and nightshade's nuts are said to be effective, however, their pharmacological action has no grounds. 6) For a treatment of toothache, such herb remedies are commonly employed as rinsing mouth with brine and holding cold water or gasoline in the mouth ; and as the drugs that are believed to be effective have been Welsh onion, ginger and castor-oil, plant, etc. The use of Welsh onion is based upon pain killing, antiinflammatory actions, and the use of ginger is based upon detoxication and disinfection ; and seeds of castor-oil plants are said to be effective, but they have no pharmacological basis. 7) When one has hives, such herb remedies are commonly applied as rubbing burned straw in affected parts, exposing to its smoke, rubbing with salt, sweeping down with a broom, and spreading and drinking boiled water of trifoliate orange. The use of cassia tora seeds, walnut, aloe and radish is said to be effective. The use of cassia tor a seeds has the functions of intestinal order, anti-paralysis, etc. The use of walnut has resulted in an increase of blood by invigorating spirits ; and the use of aloe is based upon disinfection, antibiotic, anti-salt, antihistamine and detoxication action. But, the effects of radish juice and straw's smoke have no pharmacological grounds. 8) When one gets a boil, such herb remedies are commonly used as applying a plaster, paste of flour mixed with yolk, soy sauce or honey, as well as spreading pounded elm tree. Other remedies that have been said to be effective are ; heating with mugwort, brine, wild rocambole, aloe, onion, squid's bone, etc. The use of mugwort is based upon pain killing, astringent antiinflammatory and tranquility. Wild rocambole is based upon the generation and maintenance functions of cell-joining textures ; elm tree upon antiphlogistic ; aloe upon fever removal and antiphlogistic ; onion on pain killing, fever removal, antiphlogistic and tranquility ; squid's bone on astriction: and brine or vinegar on sterilization. Pine resin and gardenia seed are said to be effective, but they have no pharmacological basis. 9) When one cuts his skin, such herb remedies are commonly employed as spreading mugwort's juice or squid's bone powder, or pressing the wounds. In addition, kalopanax, onion and fine soil are employed. The use of mugwort, kalopanax and squid's bone is based upon such functions as hemostasis, sedation, pain killing, antibacterial ; and fine soil is said to be effective, but it has no pharmacological basis. 10) When one suffers from whitlow, such herb remedies are commonly utilized as heating with boiled soy sauce, spreading soybean paste, or dipping into eggs, etc. Other drugs that have been employed are onion root, brine, eggplant, potato, loach, etc. The use of onion is based upon pain killing and antiphlogistic functions ; and that of brine upon antiphlogistic function. The use of soy sauce or soybean paste, fomentation, eggplant, potato and loach is said to be effective, but it has no pharmacblogic ground. 11) For the treatment of frostbite, such herb remedies are commonly used as dipping the affected part into frozen soybean sack, using boiled water of eggplant stem, garlic caulis, onion, hot pepper, caulis. Onion is based upon antiphlogistic and tranquility actions garlic upon disintection, metabolic exacerbation, tonic and aphrodisiac actions and the use of eggplant and hot pepper is based upon help blood circulation, dissolution and excretion of waste matters in vein. 12) For the treatment of burn, such herb remedies or drugs are commonly used as cleansing with Korean gin, spreading eggs, cleansing with cold water and soap water ; and as brine, cactus, moss, soybean paste, oil, etc. The cleansing with Korean gin, cold water, soap water, brine, vinegar is based upon cleaning and sterilizing functions ; and the use of cucumber is based upon nu. trition provision, and strengthening of resisting power by adjustment of metabolism. The use of potato, cactus, moss, oil and eggs is said to be effective, but their phamacological functions are not clarified. In view of the above results, we can realize that the drugs that have been employed in herb remedies are quite diverse. However, in regard to majority of herb remedies that have been employed by symptoms, the pharmacological functions of their drugs have not been clarified, and they are merely known as effective. Furthermore, they have not been recorded in the literature as yet ; and we confirm that there have been many herb remedies that were executed without the proper knowlege of their effects. It is now our view that the results of this survey may be utilized for consulting data in regard to the use of herb remedies.
