  • Background: Breast cancer is by far the most frequent cancer of women (23 % of all cancers), ranking second overall when both sexes are considered together. Contralateral breast cancer (CBC) is becoming an important public health issue because of the increased incidence of primary breast cancer and improved survival. The present communication concerns a study to evaluate the role of various clinico-pathological factors on the occurrence of contralateral breast cancer. Materials and Methods: A detailed analysis was carried out with respect to age, menopausal status, family history, disease stage, surgery performed, histopathology, hormone receptor status, and use of chemotherapy or hormonal therapy. The diagnosis of CBC was confirmed on histopathology report. Relative risk with 95%CI was calculated for different risk factors of contralateral breast cancer development. Results: CBC was found in 24 (4.5%) out of 532 patients. Mean age of presentation was 43.2 years. Family history of breast cancer was found in 37.5% of the patients. There was statistically significant higher rate (83.3%) of CBC in patients in age group of 20-40 years with RR=11.3 (95% CI: 1.4, 89.4, p=0.006) seen in 20-30 years and RR=10.8 (95% CI:1.5-79.6, p=0.002) in 30-40 years as compared to older age of 60-70 years. Risk of development was higher in premenopausal women (RR=8.6, 95% CI: 3.5-21.3, $p{\leq}0.001$). Women with family history of breast cancer had highest rate (20.9%) of CBC (RR=5.4, 95% CI: 2.5-11.6, $p{\leq}0.001$). Use of hormonal therapy in hormone receptor positive patients was protective factor in occurrence of CBC but not significant (RR=0.7, 95% CI: 0.3-1.5, p=0.333). Conclusions: Younger age, premenopausal status, and presence of family history were found to be significant risk factors for the development of CBC. Use of hormonal therapy in hormone receptor positive patients might be protective against occurrence of CBC but did not reach significance.

  • Background: This study was planned as comparative and descriptive in order to measure and evaluate the knowledge and attitudes regarding early diagnosis of women with and without a family history of cervical cancer. Materials and Methods: The study sample consisted of the relatives of female patients (N=253) who were admitted to Istanbul University of Medicine. Women with a family history of cervical cancer formed the case group, while those without family history of cervical cancer constituted the control group. Two distinct data collection tools, a questionnaire and the Miller Behavioral Style Scale (MBSS), were used in order to obtain data for evaluation with SPSS for Windows 20.0 statistics package program. Results: It was found that 61.0% of the case group with family history of cervical cancer and 19.0% of the control group without family history of cervical cancer were using early diagnostic methods. Thus the presence of an individual with cervical cancer in the family affected the attitudes towards early diagnosis. It was further found that the level of knowledge on cervical cancer and PAP smear test was higher in the case group, which was more sensitive with regard to being informed about cervical cancer as compared to general society. However, the average MBSS scores were not significantly different compared to the control group. Conclusions: It was noted that, women participating this study knowledgeable, but this did not necessarily transform into better behavior.

  • 국내 대학에 '통계학과'가 최초로 개설된 해는 1962년이니 국내 대학에 통계학이 독자적인 학문 영역으로 자리 잡은지 어언 57년이 지났다. 김준보 선생은 국내 대학 최초 통계학과인 고려대 통계학과에 처음으로 부임한 전임 교원으로 이 땅 통계학 여명기에 통계학 교재 저술에 힘썼으며, 또한 1971년 한국통계학회 창설을 주도하고 초대 회장을 맡아 국내에 통계학이 독자적 학문영역으로 자리매김 할 수 있는 초석을 마련하셨다. 본고에서는 두 가지 논의를 중심으로 연구한다. 하나는 한국통계학회 태동과 김준보 선생, 다른 하나는 이 땅 통계학 여명기에 선생이 저술한 통계학 분야 두 권의 책을 개관한다. 『현대통계학 : 통계와 추계의 종합체계』 (Kim, 1954), 『추측통계 : 표본조사와 실험계획법 입문』 (Kim, 1956)이 그것이다.

  • 수학의 여러 분야 가운데 패러독스가 가장 풍부한 분야는 확률 통계 영역이다. 이것은 역사적으로 확률 통계 이론의 전개 과정에서 지난 시기 동안 연구자들이 직관과 상식에 의해 참이라고 믿고 있었지만 그 사이에는 감춰져 있던 다양한 패러독스들이 존재했으며, 이 패러독스들을 수학자들이 밝히고 수학적으로 해결해 나가면서 현재의 형식적 체계에 이르게 되었음을 시사하는 것이다. 학교 수학에서 확률 통계 영역의 교수 학습 자료로 적절하게 활용할 수 있는 역사적 패러독스들은 그 당시 현실적 맥락의 도입에 따른 학생의 흥미와 관심을 불러일으킬 수 있으며, 또한 교실 수업에서 역사 발생적 원리에 따라 패러독스를 제기하고 해결하고자 고민한 수학자들의 수학적 사고를 엿볼 수 있는 타당한 교수 학습 자료이다. 더불어 확률 통계 영역에서 역사적 패러독스를 활용하는 교실 수업은 형식적이고 연역적인 학교 수학을 학생의 발견적 형성적인 측면을 강조하는 수학으로 변화하게 할 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 확률 통계 영역의 형식화 과정에서 발생한 역사적인 패러독스들 중에서 중 고등학교 확률 통계 수업에 활용할 수 있는 패러독스들에 대해서 알아보고, 또한 이 패러독스들을 교실 수업에 활용할 수 있는 구체적인 방안에 대해서 논해보고자 한다.

  • 고대로부터 일제 말기까지를 연구대상으로 한 우리나라 여성사 연구문헌을 수집하여 통계, 분석하였다. 분석된 문헌은 2003년 말까지 생산된 369건의 도서, 학위논문, 학술지기사(전자문헌포함)이다. 분석결과, 연구자들은 여성의 지위에 가장 큰 관심을 보였으며 교육, 예술분야와 함께 선호하는 연구주제였다. 그 외에 여성의 활동, 생활, 인물, 종교 등의 주제를 연구하고 있으며 점차로 다양한 주제를 연구하는 경향을 보였다. 시대별로는 조선시대의 여성연구가 가장 많고 고려시대의 여성에 관한 연구가 가장 적었다. 연구문헌의 상당수가 단선적 서술형식의 연구였고 주장이 강한 여성해방운동사적 연구도 많이 있었다. 그러나 한 시대와 다른 시대간의 비교연구 또는 국외의 여성사와의 비교연구는 거의 없었다.

  • Background: Previous studies have generated conflicting evidence regarding associations between family history and survival after gastric cancer surgery. In this study, we investigated this question using a meta-analysis. Materials and Methods: To identify relevant studies, PubMed and Embase databases were searched up to June 2013. Two reviewers independently assessed search results and data extraction of included studies. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for overall survival (OS) were calculated based on fixed- or random-effects models. Homogeneity of effects across studies was assessed using $x^2$ test statistics and quantified by $I^2$. Results: A total of five studies were selected according to the inclusion criteria. The total number of patients included was 2,030, which ranged from 145 to 598 per study. There was no significant difference in OS by family history of cancer (HR=0.83, 95%CIs=0.50-1.38), but subgroup analysis of patients with a first-degree family history of cancer (HR=0.74, 95%CIs=0.60-0.93) and gastric cancer family history (HR=0.56, 95%CIs=0.41-0.76) tended to show better OS in these patients. Conclusions: This meta-analysis suggests that a first-degree family history of cancer or gastric cancer family history is associated with better survival of gastric cancer patients after surgery, after a systematic review of five previous studies. These results can be applied by clinicians when counselling patients regarding their risk of death from gastric cancer. Further study is needed to investigate the underlying mechanism between family history and survival in gastric cancer patients.

  • This paper is to survey the research process and the problems in statistics of The Chronicle of Korea Fishery. The contents of The Chronicle were researched by two groups. One group is the managers of every province, the other group is the officers of every county. The managers performed the literature investigation research and field study and also arranged the reports from the county officers. But the managers seemed not to pay the full attention about the consistency of contents. The main contents about fishery are the number of coastal households and population, the number of fishery households and population, the number of fishing boats and fishing net. The body of The Choronicle and the table of fishing affairs in the appendages must be carefully compared to use the statistics. Though these statistics lack the consistency, the number of fishery households and boats deserves the attention. The fishing households account for less than 3% of all households, and about one third of fishing households has fishing boat.

  • Pierre-Simon de Laplace(1749-1827) is considered one of the most influential scientists in history. He was known to his contemporaries as the Newton of France, and a scientific sage valued for his magisterial syntheses of scientific works through the 18th century. Laplace was a determined mathematician, astronomer, writer, philosopher, and educator. In this paper, we take a survey of his achievements in the areas of astronomy and mathematical statistics, along with his scientific philosophy, the universal determinism.

  • Compression history detection plays an important role in digital multimedia forensics. Most existing works, however, mainly focus on digital image and video. Additionally, the existed audio compression detection algorithms aim to detect the trace of double compression. In real forgery scenario, multiple compression is more likely to happen. In this paper, we proposed a detection algorithm to reveal the compression history for MP3 audio. The statistics of the scale factor and Huffman table index which are the parameters of MP3 codec have been extracted as the detecting features. The experimental results have shown that the proposed method can effectively identify whether the testing audio has been previously treated with single/double/triple compression.
