  • Elderly problem from being aging society, especially health related problem of the elderly is very serious in many parts of this country. The reason is that most of geriatric disease are chronic and debilitating. The cause of chronic and debilitating disease are bad lifestyle and wrong health habit. Health is affected by a result of interaction of environment and human being. Because of difference of lifestyle between a city and a farm village, health behavior and health status of urban elderly and rural elderly may be dissimilar. Thus the purpose of this study was to grasp health behavior and health status, to identify the factors that effect on health status of the elderly. The subfects for this study, 488 persons aged 60 and over who live in Seoul or Cheonbuk Province. The preliminary survey was carried out from Aug. 19, to Aug. 22, 1996. With complement of questions, main survey was carried out from Sep. 29, to Oco. 10, 1996. The data was analysed by using in SPSS/PC+ program. The results were as follows. 1. General Characteristics 1) In the individual characteritics of the respondents, Seoulites aged 80 and over were 24.7%, the average age was 73.14 years old and rural residents aged 60-69 were 63.7%, the average age was 68.90 years old. In Seoul, 142 men and 101 women were respondents. In Cheonbuk Province, 101 men and 144 women were answered. In Seoul, those who graduated form elementary school were 35.4%, in farming region, illiteracy persons were 44.9%. In Seoul, 47.7% of respondents had spouse and in farming village, 66.1% of respondents had spouse. 39.0% of respondents who's imcome type was independent were Seoulite, and 66.1% of respondents who's income type was independent were rural residents. Employed persons in Seoul and in rural region were 16.9% and 62.0%. 2. Health Behavior 1) For the health behavior total score, the difference by region was not statistically significant. But the score of individual item was different and statistically significant. 2) For the Seoulites, younger person(p〈0.01), the female(p〈0.001) showed better health behavior and for the farming village residents, younger person(p〈0.01), the female(p〈0.01), independent income type(p〈0.05), employed person(p〈0.05) showed better health behavior. 3. Health Status 1) For the self-rated health status total score, the difference by region was statistically significant and individual item score was different and statistically significant. For ADL and IADL total score, the difference by region was not statistically significant, but individual item score was different and statistically significant. 2) For the Seoulites, woman(p〈0.05), lower education(p〈0.00l), independent income type(p〈0.05) showed higher score in self-rated health status. For rural residents, woman(p〈0.05), lower education(p〈0.01), independent Income type(p〈0.001) showed higher score in self-rated health status. For the Seoul residents, younger person(p〈0.001), employed(p〈0.05) showed higher score in ADL and IADL, and for the farm area residents, younger person(p〈0.001), higher education(p〈0.01), having spouse(p〈0.001), family type(p〈0.01) showed higher score In ADL and IADL. 3) For the Seoulites, drinking(p〈0.05), breakfast(p〈0.05), exercise(p〈0.05) and for the rural residents, drinking(p〈0.05), deep sleeping(p〈0.05), exercise(p〈0.01), washing hands before meal(p〈0.01) showed higher score In self-rated health status. For the Seoulites, deep sleeping(p〈0.05), exercise(p〈0.05) and for the farm village residents, fruit(p〈0.05), deep sleeping(p〈0.05), exercise(p〈0.001) showed higher score in ADL and IADL. We carried out this study to analyze the effectiveness through health education program in short term which was performed to use the special subject activities. This study was conducted on 63 students who were first grade in S Junior High School from Dec. 1995 to Feb. 1996. To analyze the effectiveness, we performed the Pretest, 1st Posttest, and 2nd Posttest for learned health knowledge. The results were as follows: 1. Most of the students(69.8%) responded that their health were good, and they got the information for health through Mass Com.. The students who had experience of health education were 15.9%, and the 77.8% of the respondents needed the health education. 2. The means of health knowledge on tests were 18.2(Pretest), 21.5(1st Posttest), and 21.4(2nd Posttest). Increase of health knowledge between Pretest and 1st Posttest was 10.9%. 3. The mean of differences between Pretest and 1st Posttest was 3.26, it was significant(p〈0.01). And the mean of differences between Pretest and 2nd Posttest was 3.19, it was significant(p〈0.01);however, the mean of differences between 1st Posttest and 2nd Posttest was not significant(p=0.2514). 4. The significant main contents were Health Facilities(d=0.42), Pregnancy and Labor(d=0.39), Hygiene(d=0.35), Safety Education(d=0.66), and Drug Abuse(d=0.60)(p〈0.01).

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to conduct a clinical analysis of patients treated for dizziness with Jeoreongchajeonja-tang, evaluate the effect of Jeoreongchajeonja-tang administration, and present indications of Jeoreongchajeonja-tang in dizziness. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 63 patients who were admitted to the Oriental Hospital of Se-Myung University from August 2012 to June 2019, complaining of dizziness, so who took Jeoreongchajeonja-tang. Results: 1) As a result of the analysis of the general characteristics of patients who took Jeoreongchajeonja-tang with dizziness, women were 2.7 times more than men. The age distribution was: patients in their 70s, 36.5%; in their 50s, 20.6%; in their 60s, 15.8%; and in their 80s, 12.6%. Patients had a history of hypertension (46.0%), diabetes (22.2%), stroke (17.4%), lung disease (12.6%), and cancer (11.1%). According to the diagnosis, 48 patients (76.1%) were assigned to the peripheral dizziness group, 7 patients (11.1%) to the central dizziness group, and 8 patients (12.6%) to other dizziness groups. 2) Compared with the peripheral dizziness group, the central dizziness group was older, their history of hypertension 8.4 times greater, their history of stroke 7.8 times greater, and the duration of herbal medicine administration was longer. 3) The vertigo grade was significantly decreased after taking Jeoreongchajeonja-tang (p=0.000). 4) As age increased by one year, odds ratio of improvement in the vertigo grade decreased by 0.924 times after taking Jeoreongchajeonja-tang (p=0.010). 5) Sex, disease duration, past history, diagnosis, the duration of herbal medicine administration, whether or not Yanggyuksanhwa-tang was combined with the Jeoreongchajeonja-tang and whether or not Western medicine was used did not affect improvement in the vertigo grade after taking Jeoreongchajeonja-tang. Conclusions: In patients with dizziness, Jeoreongchajeonja-tang can be used as a treatment without side effects.

  • Objectives: In Korea, as in most countries, there will be a sharp increase in the number of dementia patients in the near future. However basic data on dementia prevalence, which is important in defining epidemiologic characteristics and in implementing preventive strategy, are limited. This study was conducted to estimate the prevalence rate of dementia in the urban elderly aged 65 or older in Kwangmyung, Korea. Methods: A two phase design was used for case finding and case identification. In phase I, a representative sample aged 65 or older was selected and interviewed by door-to-door survey with a Korean version of the Mini-Mental State Examination (K-MMSE). In phase II, Of the 946 subjects interviewed in phase 1,356 elderly were randomly selected disproportionately according to K-MMSE score. Of these elderly, 223 (61.5%) underwent standardized clinical evaluations, including psychiatric interview, neurological examination, and neuropsychological assessment. Dementia was diagnosed by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV) criteria. The diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) was made by National Institute of Neurological and Communicative Disorders and Stroke-Alzheimer's Disease and feinted Disorders Association(NINCDS-ADRDA) criteria and vascular dementia (VD) by DSM-IV. Results: The overall weighted prevalence rate of all dementia among Kwangmyung residents aged 65 or older was 12,8%(age-adjusted rate: 13,0%, 95% Confidence Interval[CI]: 10.6-15.3%). Women had much higher prevalence rate than men even when age was controlled(15.9%[95% CI 12.6-19.2%] vs 7.5%[95% CI 4.0-10.4%]), The rates of dementia were 5.2%, 12.2%, 17.0%, and 34.3% for the age groups of 65-69, 70-74, 75-79 and 80 and over, respectively. The rate of AD appeared to be slightly higher than that of VD(5.2% vs 4.8%), though not statistically significant. Most of the cases(69%) were mild dementia according to CDR(<1) in these subjects. Conclusions : These results showed that the prevalence rate of dementia among urban elderly in Korea appears to be higher than those of other Asian countries.

  • 최근 격심한 운동은 시상하부-뇌하수체-생식소 (HPG)축의 교란을 일으켜 여성과 남성의 생식기능에 장애를 유발하는 것으로 알려지고 있다. 격심한 운동을 하는 여성 운동선수의 경우는 과소월경, 무배란, 황체기 단축, 성성숙 지연등에 따른 생식호르몬의 변화가 유발된다. 남성 운동선수의 경우는 과도한 운동, 정신적 장애와 긴장, 군 훈련 등 격심한 운동으로 생식호르몬의 분비에 이상이 생긴다고 보고되고 있으나, 임상적인 증상은 미약한 것으로 보고되고 있다. 본 연구는 격심한 운동이 생식이상을 초래하는 원인을 밝히는 연구의 일환으로, 정상 남자가 장기적 운동 (3개월 이상), 단기간의 격심한 운동 (1주일),그리고 1${\sim}$2시간의 집약된 심한 운동 후 혈청내 호르몬의 변화를 방사면역측정법을 이용하여 측정하였다. 세 가지 운동 형태의 경우 모두가 부신 및 고환에서 분비되는 총 testosterone (TT), 유리형 T (fT), DHEA, A의분비 변화를 일으켰다. 특히 단기간과 1${\sim}$2시간의 격한 운동 후 일시적으로 증가되었다가, 이어 정상치 이하로 감소하는 것이 발견되었다. Cortisol, DHEAS, ACTH 등은 운동 후 지속적인 증가를 초래하였다. 장기간의 운동 후에서는 생식소자극 호르몬의 분비가 큰 변동이 없었으나, 단기간 운동 후에는 FSH의 감소가 발견되었다. 이러한 결과는 부신 및 고환의androgen이 격한 운동에 의해 감소되며, 장기간의 지속적인 남성호르몬의 변화는 생식기능의 이상을 초래하는 원인이 된다고 가정된다. 또한 단기간의 격한 운동이 HPG축 호르몬의 변화를 유발하나, 장기간의 운동으로 일어나는 androgen의 감소는 HPG축 이외의 요인(들)에 의해 남성호르몬의 분비이상이 생긴다고 가정된다.후 80%, 95%층에서 X 정자가 많이 회수되고, 활동성이 증가하는 것뿐만 아니라 정자의 질도 개선할 수 있다는 사실을 알 수 있었다.1kDa과 GA110 만이 항원-항체 반응을 나타내었다. 이 같은 결과로 미루어 사람의 난포액과 혈청에는 gelatinase A의 독특한 isoform인 GA110이 있으며 특히 난포액내의 GA110은 수란관액성분에 의해 선택적으로 분해되는 것으로 여겨진다.두냔 tsuchigae, S. nigripinni morii, M. jeoni, C. splendidus, P. koreanus, C. lutheri, I. koreensis, C. herzi, R. brunneus 등으로 본 종들의 서식 상태는 하천의 오염 정도 및 하천개수와 직접적인 관계가 있으므로 어류서식 환경을 유지시키기 위해서 보다 적극적인 하천 수질관리의 대책과 방안이 수립되어야 될 것으로 사료된다.와 운동, H-R도상에서의 별의 특성과 진화 등이다. 탐구 과정에 대한 학생의 성취도는 비교적 높으므로 이해도가 상대적으로 낮은 영역에 대해 학생의 오답 유형을 참고하여 기본 개념 지도에 보다 관심을 기울일 필요가 있다.Cr은 FW에서 전반적으로 감소하는 경향을 보였지만 SW에서는 실험 초기에 감소하다 24시간 이후에는 증가 후 일정한 양상을 보였다.

  • 본 연구는 농촌지역에 거주하는 65세 이상 노인 119명을 대상으로 우울정도와 자아존중감의 두 가지 심리적 요인이 영양위험도와 영양소 섭취량에 미치는 영향에 대해 연구했으며, 주요 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale(CES-D Scale)을 적용하여 우울정도를 판정한 결과, 정상은 43.7%, 경도 우울 21%, 중등 우울 21%, 중증 우울 14.3%로 각각 나타났다. 성별에 따른 우울정도를 비교하면 경도 이상 우울에 해당되는 비율이 남자노인에서 47.1%, 여자노인에서 60.0%로 나타났다. 2. 자아존중감(General Self Efficacy Scale;GSES)점수 합의 평균은 전체에서 45.9점, 남자노인에서 51.9점, 여자노인에서 43.6점으로 남자노인에서 유의적으로 높게 나타났다(p < 0.05). 3. NSI Checklist를 적용하여 영양위험도를 평가한 결과 전체 대상자 중 정상은 69.7%, 중간위험 군은 30.3%였으며, 성별에 따라 비교한 결과 남자노인에서는 85.3% vs. 14.7%, 여자노인에서는 63.5% vs. 36.5%로 나타났다(p < 0.01). 4. 영양소 섭취수준을 평가한 결과, 남녀 모두 에너지는 섭취기준의 76%이었으나, 칼슘, 칼륨, 아연, 비타민A, 리보플라빈, 나이아신의 섭취량은 영양섭취기준의 60% 미만인 것으로 나타났다. 5. 영양위험도는 우울정도와는 양의 상관관계를(r = 0.385, p < 0.01), 영양소 섭취량은 자아존중감과 양의 상관 관계를 보였다(단백질, 칼슘, 인, 아연, 철, 나트륨, 터아민, 리보플라빈, 나이아신, 비타민B6, p < 0.05). 즉, 우울정도가 높을수록 영양위험도가 증가하는 반면에, 자아존중 감에 대한 인식도가 높을수록 영양소 섭취량이 높게 나타났다. 6. CBS-D Scale 합의 4분위 구간별 영양위험도 점수는 증가하였으며(Q1 = 2.90, Q2 = 4.31, Q3 = 3.52, Q4 = 6.52, p < 0.001), 자아존중 감 점수 합의 4분위에 따라 에너지를 포함한 대부분의 영양소 섭취량이 증가하는 경향이었으며 특히 단백질(Q1 = 71.4, Q2 = 74.7, Q3 = 80.3, Q4 = 92.9, p < 0.05), 인(p < 0.05), 아연(p < 0.01)의 섭취량은 유의적인 수준에서 증가하였다. 이상의 결과로부터 노인의 영양위험도와 영양소 섭취량은 심리적 요인들과 밀접하게 관련되어 있음이 확인되었다. 전반적으로 영양상태가 좋지 못한 노인들에서 우울과 같은 심리적, 정신적 문제들을 과소평가하거나 적절한 관리가 이루어지지 못한 경우에는 영양문제를 가속화하는 요인으로 작용할 수 있어 이에 대한 적절한 관리가 필요하다고 사료된다.

  • Background: The National Central Cancer Registry of China (NCCR) affiliated to the Bureau of Disease Control, National Health and Family Planning Commission of China is responsible for cancer surveillance in the entire country. Cancer registration data from each local registry located in each province are collected by NCCR annually to be analyzed and published to provide useful information for policy makers and cancer researchers. Materials and Methods: Until 1st June, 2013, 219 population-based cancer registries submitted data of 2010 to the National Central Cancer Registry of China covering about 207,229,403 population, and 145 cancer registries were selected after quality evaluation for this study. Colorectal cancer cases were selected from the database according to ICD-10 coded as "C18-C20". We calculated the crude incidence and mortality rates by sex, age groups and location (urban/rural). The China population in 2000 and Segi's population were used as standardized populations for the calculation of age-standardized rates. The 6th National Population Census data of China was used to combined with the cancer registries' data to estimate the colorectal cancer burden in China in 2010. Results: Colorectal cancer was the sixth most common cancer in China. It was estimated that there were 274,841 new cases diagnosed in 2010 (157,355 in males and 117,486 in females), with the crude incidence rate of 20.1/100,000, highest in males in urban areas. Age-standardized rates by China standard population of 2000 (ASRcn) and World standard population (Segi's population, ASRwld) for incidence were 16.1/100,000 and 15.9/100,000 respectively. There were 132,110 cases estimated to have died from colorectal cancer in China in 2010 (76,646 men and 55,464 women) with the crude mortality rate of 10.1/100,000. The ASRcn and ASRwld for mortality were 7.55/100,000 and 7.44/100,000 respectively, higher in males and urban areas than in females and rural areas. The incidence and mortality rates increased with age, reaching peaksin the 80-84 year old, and oldest age groups, respectively. Conclusions: Colorectal cancer is one of the most common incident cancers and cause of cancer death in China. Primary and secondary prevention, with attention to a health lifestyle, physical activity and screening should be enhanced in the general population.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of pelvic traction and muscle energy technique(MET) for hemiplegic patients on static standing balance. The scale for static standing balance is measured by using mean balance(%), frequence(Hz), sway area($mm^2$), sway path(mm), max sway velocity(mm/s), ant/post sway angle($^{\circ}$), lateral sway angle($^{\circ}$), sway number, change of pelvic height is measured in relation to the height of ASIS and PSIS. The subjects of this study were thirty hemiplegic patients: 15men and 15 women, with an average ages of 50.80 years. The thirty subjects were divided into 3 group of 10 at random ; ten subjects had pelvic traction after bobath therapy (the pelvic traction group), ten subjects had muscle energy technique after bobath therapy (the MET group), and ten subjects had only bobath therapy (the control group). Static standing balance was measured using BPM (balance performance monitor; data print software version 5.3), pelvic height was measured using height measuring with an adjustable horizontal arm. In order to assure the statistical significant of the result, an one-way ANOVA, the paired t-test, and a person's correlation were applied at the.05 level of significance. The results of this study were as follows: 1) The change in pelvic height were statistically significant between the pelvic traction group, the MET group and the control group on pre-treatment and post-treatment(p<.05). 2) The change in affected and non-affected on weight bearing were not statistically significant between the pelvic traction group, the MET group and the control group on pre-treatment and post-treatment(p>.05). 3) The change in frequency were statistically significant between the MET group, the control group and the pelvic traction group on pre-treatment and post-treatment(p<.05). 4) The change in sway area were statistically significant between the MET group, the control group and the pelvic traction group on pre-treatment and post-treatment(p<.05). 5) The change in sway pa1h were statistically significant between the pelvic traction group, the MET group and the control group on pre-treatment and post-treatment(p<.05). 6) The change in max sway velocity were statistically significant between the pelvic traction group, the MET group and the control group on pre-treatment and post-treatment(p<.05). 7) The change in ant/post sway angle were statistically significant between the pelvic traction group, the MET group and the control group on pre-treatment and post-treatment(p<.05). 8) The change in lateral sway angle were statistically significant between the pelvic traction group, the MET group and the control group on pre-treatment and post-treatment(p<.05). 9) The change in sway number were statistically significant between the pelvic traction group, the MET group and the control group on pre-treatment and post-treatment(p<.05). In conclusion, there was a difference between the experimental group and the control group. In the future, we have to study continuously about pelvic traction and muscle energy technique in hemiplegic patients.
