The Japanese encephalitis (JE) virus is the leading cause of vaccine-preventable encephalitis in Asia. Since the introduction of a universal JE vaccination program and urbanization of Korea, the incidence of JE has dramatically decreased in Korea. However, recent JE cases have occurred, predominantly among unvaccinated adults and with a shift in age distribution. Here we aimed to review the changes in age-specific JE seroprevalence over time and discuss the implications of JE vaccination programs in Korea. Following the last epidemic in 1982-1983, mandatory vaccination for all children aged 3-15 years was conducted annually until 1994. However, JE has reemerged, predominantly affecting unvaccinated adults aged 40 years or older and demonstrating a shift in age distribution toward older populations. The age-specific seroprevalence of the JE virus in Korea has changed noticeably over time. Seropositivity in children and adolescents increased from 10%-59% in the 1970s to 90%-92% in the 1980s after the implementation of the JE vaccination program and increased further to 98% in 2012. No age-specific difference in the seroprevalence of JE was found, and appropriate levels of immunity to JE were maintained for all age groups. Continuous surveillance of the seroprevalence of JE is essential to establish a proper immunization policy in Korea.

일본의 경비업법과 경비산업이 한국에 많은 영향을 미쳤다. 현대적 의미의 민간경비에 대한 역사와 발전과정은 양국간에 큰 차이가 없는데도 불구하고 실질적으로 민간경비에 대한 인식은 차이가 크다. 일본의 민간경비와 경찰의 협력은 교육, 범죄예방, 방재 및 복구, 생활안전 등의 면에서 활발하게 이뤄지고 있다. 한국에서도 민간경비와 경찰의 협력이 더욱 필요한 시점이다. 일본의 협력사례들을 참고하여 한국에서도 범죄예방을 위한 민간경비와 경찰의 협력을 강화해야 할 것이다. 일본의 경우 경찰과 시민단체 경비업협회 경비업자 등은 국민의 안전욕구를 적극적으로 충족시키기 위해 다양한 방범, 방재활동을 전개하고 있다.

During the period from August 1959 to end of July 1980, 69 cases of Type I VSD were noted among 235 cases of ventricular septal defect who were operated utilizing cardiopulmonary bypass in the Department of Cardio-thoracic Surgery, College of Medicine, Seoul National University(29.4%). During the same period 1162 open heart surgery cases were experienced among whom 778 cases were congenital anomalies. There were no significent differences between Type I '||'&'||' other tvpo:s of VSD in sex and age distribution. In Type I VSD frequency of aortic regurgitation association was much higher than rest of the types. (8.7% to 2.6%). Necessity of patch closure in Type I was not different from other types. The high incidence of Type I VSD is quite similar to Japanese references which show quite higher ratio compared with from Euroamerican caucasian patients materials. All cases were operated on with bubble type oxygenator mainly Shiley**" oxygenator utilizing hypothermic hemodilution perfusion technique.echnique.

The study analyzed a diachronic distribution, social meanings and social evaluations of ROOJIN. 'Headline Database of Newspaper Articles' and 'Balanced Corpus of Contemporary Written Japanese' by KOKKEN were used as research data. There were 305 newspaper articles (About 0.2%) which contained the word ROOJIN at 'Headline Database of Newspaper Articles'. The number of newspaper articles related to ROOJIN started to increase in a rapid rate in 1972 and 1973. They were also increased in 1976, from 1981 to 1987, 1992 and 1993. The reasons of increasing of newspaper articles related to ROOJIN on those 4 periods of time could be summarized as follows. Firstly, there was a increasement of ROOJIN who are lonely, are not able to move about freely or live alone. Secondly, the understanding of a symptom of aging called BOKE was necessary. Thirdly, there were negative evaluations in a society towards ROOJIN. There were 453 cases which contained the word ROOJIN at 'Balanced Corpus of Contemporary Written Japanese' on the data since 2000. The most frequently used words were ones that are related to senior care facilities. There were 109 cases (24%) which contain those words. '~SISETSU', '~SENTA-', '~HO-MU' were presented as words related to senior care facilities. Among them, 78 cases contained the word '~HO-MU' which was similar to a home with family members. The second most frequently used words were ones that are related to 'welfare for the aged' and they are led by 'medical care for the aged'. They occupied about 8%. Institutionalization of medical care for the aged, medical expenses, nursing were presented as words related to 'medical care for the aged'. Words that were related to 'welfare for the aged' led by 'senior care facilities' and 'medical care for the aged' occupied about 32% of research data. As mentioned above, problems of the aged in Modern Japan such as negative evaluations in a society towards ROOJIN, ROOJIN who are lonely, are not able to move about freely or live alone, BOKE could be identified by analyzing the data. Also, The frequent usage of words such as 'Home for the aged', 'medical care for the aged' and 'nursing' could be identified. The outcome of analysis suggested that a family traditionally had a function of solving problems of the aged but that function was reduced in modern Japan. It also suggested that there was a tendency to outsource problems of the aged as much as possible.

An epidemiological study was performed to evaluate the state of fish diseases between aquaculture fishes in the area of southern Kyeongnam, especially Tongyeong-si, Geoje-si, and Goseong-gun. Examination for a total of 91 cases was carried out for a variety of fishes, including Japanese flounder(Paralichthys olivaceus), rock fish (Sebastes schlegeli), sea bass (Lateolabrax japonicus), sea breams(Pagrus major), and red drum (Sciaenops ocellatus) from November, 1999 to October, 2001. The investigation resulted in exploring 155 infectious diseases, including 62 Vibriosis, 16 Edwasiella infection, 11 Streptococcosis, 7 Pseudotuberculosis, 15 Scuticociliatida infection, 20 Gill flukes, and 9 Trichodiniasis. When the infections were classified according to fish species, Japanese flounder was infected by 30 Vibrio spp., 16 Edwardsiella tarda, 6 Streptococcus spp., 12 Scuticociliatida infection. In case of sea bass, 10 Vibrio spp. was able to isolate out of 10 outbreaks, on the other hand, rock fish was dominantly infected by gill flukes since it was observed 12 out of a total of 20 cases. With reference to seasonal fluctuation, Vibrio spp. infection was continually observed through all seasons but Edwardsiella septicaemia, Streptococcosis and Pseudotuberculosis was mainly isolated in summer and autumn when the water temperature was raised high. Scuticociliatida infection was frequently occurred from late autumn to early spring but gill flukes were watched all the year regardless of temperature. As regards, multiple infection, 47 out of 91 cases was Identified to have involved in more than 2 pathogens, especially Vibrio spp. was highly mixed with other pathogens since 42 out of 47 cases was mixed with Vibrio spp.

"Kenjurok" is a set of medical records of Todo Yoshimasu, a Japanese docotr in the eighteenth century, who suggested that all diseases have originated from a poison, which is his own pathological term describing abnormal states of the body, The 54 records in "Kenjurok" were analyzed in statistical respects, including gender ratio, demographic distribution of patients, types of diseases, and herbal prescriptions used. Among 54 cases, male patients outnumbered female, as much as four times. The patients were quite evenly distributed according to ages. In 23 cases out of 54, abdomen palpation data were mentioned, Majority of the prescriptions used were originated from Sanghanron(傷寒論:Treaties on Febrile Diseases)/Geumgeyoryak(金匱要略: Synopsis of Golden Chamber). In frequency of use of prescriptions, however, showed somewhat different result, that is although Sanghan/Geumge prescriptions were used most often, esoteric prescriptions handed down in his family also composed significant part. The speculations derived from these statistical results are: Although Todo favored abdommen palpation to locate the poison and to decide a prescription, the proportion of abdomen palpation was not as high as expectation, He did use prescriptions not only in Sanghan/Geumge, but also other diverse prescriptions, rather often than not, which are regarded unique Japanese traditional prescriptions including poisonous minerals such as mercury and arsenic.

Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) has become an important concern in food safety. Until now, 36 cases of BSE have been detected in Japan. Control programs have led to a decrease in the annual numbers, and Japan has now been categorized as a "controlled risk" country by the World Animal Health Organization (OIE). In spite of a worldwide decrease in the number of BSE cases, sporadic occurrences of atypical BSE cases have been reported. In Japan, 2 atypical BSE cases were confirmed. A Japanese L-type-BSE (BSE/JP24) has exhibited transmissibility to bovinized transgenic mice (TgBoPrP) it has a shorter incubation period than that of classical BSE. Although the origin of atypical BSE is obscure, risk analysis of newly emerged BSE prions of cattle and humans is required.

근래 일본에서 TV 드라마 속의 연애스토리가 감소하는 가운데, 인기 높은 한국드라마의 연애스토리가 어떤 점에서 차별화되어 있는지를 검토한 결과 일본의 연애스토리에 비해 다음과 같은 차이점이 나타났다. 일본작품의 주인공은 평범한 남녀가 많았고, 연애과정의 갈등은 인물 환경에 대한 갈등과 더불어 현실에서도 흔히 일어나는 개인의 생각 속의 갈등도 겪게 했었다. 사랑의 고백은 한국작품보다 심플한 표현을 사용하며 '좋아한다' '사랑한다'도 말하지 않은 남녀도 있었고, 사랑의 위기일 때도 상대에 대한 집착행동이 많이 나타나지 않았다. 그리고 반드시 맺어지지는 않는 결말도 묘사되어 있었다. 한편 한국작품의 주인공은 남녀간 격차가 있는 입장이 많았고, 갈등도 환경 차이, 병, 연적 등의 환경적인 것이 대부분이었다. 모든 남녀가 '좋아한다' '사랑한다'는 말로 고백함은 물론 일본작품보다 열혈한 애정 표현을 많이 사용했고, 위기일 때도 모든 남자가 물러서지 않고 사랑에 대한 집착을 보여줬다. 그리고 우여곡절 끝에 모두가 행복하게 사랑이 결실되는 결말이 그려졌었다.

As for the Japanese dietary style and dietary equipments, many are regarded, with the rice plant imported, as the influence of China and Korea, while traditional culture has recently changed in Japanese and Korean urban lives because of the increase of nuclear families and modernization of lives. Of 1,244 junior high school students of boys and girls in Tokyo and Seoul, we investigated the present situations of the employment of dining equipments October to November, 1987. The results obtained are as follows. More cases that each member of a family had his or her own dining equipment were found in Japan. The frequency of using chopsticks was high in both countries. Korean children, having no struggles, handled chopsticks better than Japanese children. As for the dishing-up of sidedishes, more than half of Japanese used their individual plates, while in Korean families they used whole dishes. As for the employment of dining equipments, Japanese people have established their own style because of the national character of delicacy and finicality. This kind of traditional habits were found much more in extended families than in nuclear families. In Korea, the traditional spirit and the broad-minded characteristics cherished in the continental circumstances were manifested in the employment of dining equipments and their strong national character will not easily accept the wave of modernization.
