본 연구는 입원정신질환자의 자살사고에 영향을 미치는 요인을 규명하는 서술적 조사연구이다. 연구대상자는 C 대학병원 정신과 병동에 입원한 정신질환자 186명이었다. 구조화된 자가 보고식 설문지를 이용하여 자료를 수집하였으며, 자료 분석은 SPSS WIN 프로그램을 사용하여 빈도와 백분율, 평균과 표준편차, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient, hierarchical multiple regression analysis를 실시하였다. 연구결과, 자살사고는 결혼상태, 진단명, 자살시도 과거력에 따라 유의한 차이가 있었고 우울, 자아존중감, 영성과 유의한 상관관계가 있었다. 일반적 특성 중 자살사고에 유의한 차이를 보였던 결혼상태, 진단명, 자살시도 과거력을 통제한 상태에서 위계적 회귀분석을 실시한 결과, 자살사고에 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 우울과 영성이 유의한 것으로 나타났으며 이들 변수의 자살사고에 대한 설명력은 52.4%이었다. 결론적으로, 입원정신질환자들의 자살사고를 감소시키기 위해서 이들의 우울을 감소시키고 영성을 증진하는 중재 프로그램을 개발하여 적용할 필요가 있다.

Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is a degenerative disease characterized by the selective frontal and temporal lobe atrophy, and progressive deficits in behavior, executive function, or language. The prevalence and incidence of FTD are 15-22/100000 and 2.7-4.1/100000, respectively, in midlife. Hereditary is an important risk factor for FTD. Although there is some controversy regarding the further syndromatic subdivision of the different types of FTD, FTD is clinically classified into behavioral variant of frontotemporal dementia, semantic dementia and progressive nonfluent aphasia. FTD can be misdiagnosed as many psychiatric disorders because of similarity of the prominent behavioral features. Advances in clinical, imaging, and molecular characterization have increased the accuracy of FTD diagnosis, thus developing for the accurate differentiation of these syndromes from psychiatric disorders. We also discuss about therapeutic strategies for symptom management of FTD. Medications such as serotonin reuptake inhibitors, antipsychotics, and other novel treatments have been used in FTD with various rates of success. Further advanced research should be directed at understanding and developing new diagnostic and therapeutic modalities to improve the FTD patients' prognosis and quality of life.

Purpose: The aim of the study was to investigate associations of spiritual well-being, attitude toward death, and quality of life among Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). Methods: This study was cross-sectional and descriptive in design. The data was collected from August to September 2018 with 133 AA members drawn from two provinces of South Korea. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-tests, one-way ANOVA with Turkey tests, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and hierarchical multiple linear regression analyses using SPSS/WIN 20.0 program. Results: The existential spiritual well-being (β=.52, p<.001), attitude toward death (β=.24, p<.001), dual diagnosis (β=-.17, p=.003), occupation (β=.12, p=.035) of the participants were significant factors, which explained 63.7% of the variance of quality of life. Conclusion: The study findings highlight the need to develop psychological nursing strategies to enhance the spiritual well-being and improve a positive attitude toward death based on the job and dual diagnosis among AA members to improve their better quality of life.

본 연구는 정신질환자의 성지식, 성태도 및 성행동 정도와 차이를 파악하고 변수 간 관계를 파악하기 위해 시도되었다. 연구대상자는 J도 K시에 소재한 정신전문병원에 입원한 성인 정신질환자 222명이었다. 자료는 구조화된 설문지를 사용하여 2016년 3월 11일부터 4월 15일까지 수집되었다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS/WIN 20.0 프로그램을 이용하여 independent t-test, One-way ANOVA, $Scheff{\acute{e}}$ test, Pearson's Correlation Coefficients로 분석하였다. 연구 대상자의 성지식 평균점수는 2.60점, 성태도는 2.74점, 성행동은 0.49점이었다. 대상자의 성지식은 부모의 양육태도에 따라 유의한 차이를 보였고(${\rho}$<.01), 성행동은 진단명에 따라 유의한 차이를 나타났다(${\rho}$<.05). 성지식은 성태도(r=.75, ${\rho}$<.001) 및 성행동(r=.15, ${\rho}$<.05)과 유의한 양의 상관관계가 있었다. 성태도는 성행동 하부영역 중 적극적 성행동 간에 유의한 양의 상관관계가 있었다(r=.20, ${\rho}$<.01). 본 연구결과는 정신질환자의 성 관련 문제에 관한 정신간호중재방법의 개발에 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

Method : We studied twenty patients who visited Daejeon University Oriental Medicine Hospital from May, 2003 to September, 2003. Results : 1. The ratio of male to female patients was 1:3 and age distribution was most frequent in 30s&40s. 2. The most frequent cause of illness was stress in occupation and overwork. The greater part of patients came to hospital in 12hours after an attack. 3. In chief problem, somatic symptoms such as headache, dizziness, numbness and chest discomfort were most frequent.

Rapunzel syndrome refers to a very rare condition in which swallowed hair forms a gastric trichobezoar that has a long tail extending into the small bowel. We describe a case of Rapunzel syndrome in an 8-year-old girl who presented with abdominal mass, epigastric pain and vomiting. Abdominal computed tomography scan showed a markedly dilated stomach filled with coarse heterogeneous materials. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed a huge hairy ball with a tail extending through the pylorus. We performed a surgical laparotomy and successfully removed a huge trichobezoar with a long tail extending into the middle portion of jejunum. Psychiatric consultation with review showed her past history of trichotillomania and trichophagia 4 years ago. But her parents denied further psychiatric therapy and she was lost to the follow-up. Rapunzel syndrome should be included in the differential diagnosis in children with chronic abdominal pain and trichophagia.

Virtual reality technology is now being used in neuropsychological assessment and real-world applications of many psychiatric disorders, including anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, child psychiatric disorders, dementia, and substance related disorders. These applications are growing rapidly due to recent evolution in both hardware and software of virtual reality. In this paper, we review these current applications and discuss the future work of clinical, ethical, and technological aspects needed to refine and expand these applications to psychiatry.

This paper first reviewed the definition, criteria, and neurological theories concerning the etiology of AD/HD, and the empirical studies dealing with the comorbidity of AD/HD with other psychiatric disorders. Secondly, results of studies using various neuropsychological tests for assessing the cognitive and behavioral problems in AD/HD children were examined, which suggest the possibility that dysfunction may exist in neural pathways involving many areas of the brain in AD/HD. However, because most of neuropsychological test used in Korea for ADHD children had been developed abroad, further study involving AD/HD, normal control, and other psychiatric control groups is needed to obtain developmental norms for interpreting the results, and to make more accurate diagnosis, and to clarify comorbidity of AD/HD with other disorders.

In this paper, we present the Computerized Polysomnographic System, which we developed for aiding manual polysomnographic diagnonis. This system is composed of four sub parts: patient information management tool, polysomno-graphic signal acquisition tool, signal analysis tool, and result-reporting tool. We calculated the parameters of sleep diagnosis, both on the sleep stage hypnogram and event lists. We developed this system on the Windows NT 4.0 and Pentium Pro 200Mhz. We are testing this system on the clinical site.

목 적 : 본 연구에서는 이미 정착하여 일상 생활을 하고 있는 북한이탈주민들 중 정신과 진료를 받은 환자들을 대상으로 정신생리를 고찰하고자 하였다. 방 법 : 본 연구는 2005년 1월 1일부터 2011년 7월까지 정신과를 내원한 북한이탈주민 환자 85명을 대상으로 후향적으로 인구학적 정보 및 정신과적 정보를 획득하였다. 결 과 : 85명의 북한이탈주민 중 75명(88.2%)이 여자였으며, 평균연령은 48세였다. 외래에서 주로 호소한 증상으로는 불면 47명(55.3%), 두통 37명(43.5%), 불안감 20명(23.5%), 우울감 19명(22.4%) 등이었으며, 입원시 주된 증상은 불면 14명(87.5%), 우울감 12명(75%), 두통 8명(50%) 등이었다. 결 론 : 국내에 입국해서 생활하고 있는 북한이탈주민들이 가장 많이 호소하는 정신과적 증상은 불면, 두통 등으로 나타났다. 향후 북한이탈주민들을 정신과적 평가 및 치료함에 있어서 정서적 호소보다 신체적 증상을 더 많이 호소하는 특징을 고려하여야 함을 시사한다. 또한 북한이탈주민들의 가장 많은 증상이 불면이었다는 점에서 향후 이들을 대상으로 수면에 대한 심도 있는 연구가 이루어야 할 것이다.
