This study was conducted to analyse climate change impact on agriculture infrastructure and propose improved measures on vulnerable areas. Recently, Climate change has resulted in damaging effects on agricultural fields through increases in drought intensity and flood risk. It is expected that this impact will increase over time. This study shows that Gyeong-gi and Chung-nam provinces are affected by drought and Gyeong-buk and Gyeong-nam provinces are affected by heavy rain. However, there are also regional variations within each province. Agricultural infrastructure affected by drought may also be affected by heavy rain. Increased damages on the infrastructure due to increased extreme weather events require preventive measures especially in vulnerable areas. In order to minimize the damage by climate change, we need to introduce a reform in the system which selects project region by analysing climate change impacts. Furthermore, impact assessment of climate change from projects such as 'water supply diversification', 'flooded farmland improvement', and 'irrigation facility reinforcement' also need to be adopted to improve the measures. The results of this study are expected to provide a foundation for establishing measures on coping with climate change in the agricultural sector.

Purpose: This study attempted to estimate the need for home visiting nurse at public health centers. Methods: A model was generated to estimate a community's home visiting health service needs in 16 regions and a workload analysis was adopted to estimate the number of required Nurses. Data were collected from 16 public health centers using the South Korean government's open-information systems. Subjects were divided into three groups: vulnerable social group, bottom 10% income group, and bottom 20% income group. Results: The analysis revealed that 2,158 and 6,667 nurses were needed to provide home visiting health service for the bottom 10% and 20% income groups, respectively. It was estimated that for the vulnerable social group, 10,336 nurses were needed to provide home visiting health service, implying that the need-based demand for nurses is well over 5 times the number currently employed. Conclusion: The results indicate that the number of currently employed nurses is insufficient for the health management of vulnerable social groups. The government should consider active employment policies to encourage nurses to apply for home visiting health service.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is analysing the influence of how health behavior such as smoking, drinking, and consuming salt and obesity affects to blood pressure and providing useful data for preventing ischemic heart disease of Peru which is main cause of death since 2012 and promoting healthy lifestyle of community. Methods: At the selected four districts in Lima and Callao region of Peru by KOICA Peru office, survey was conducted among adults over the age of 18. Excepted 19 incomplete people for the missing, 686 people were analysed in this survey. Results: There was no significant relationship between blood pressure and drinking and salt intake. By regression analysis, systolic blood pressure was significantly related with gender, age and abdominal obesity and diastolic blood pressure was significantly related with gender and abdominal obesity. Conclusions: As a result, diastolic and systolic blood pressure are mainly affected by waist circumference and gender. Therefore, It's need to be classifying male into vulnerable groups in the occurrence of hypertension and providing health education and information about hypertension to them. For improving health status of vulnerable group, awareness of hypertension prevention and changing unhealthy lifestyle to healthy lifestyle activities are necessary.

Background: There are regional variations in the incidence of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which means that some regions are more exposed to the risk of COVID-19 than others. Therefore, this study aims to investigate regional variations in the incidence of COVID-19 in Korea and identify risk factors associated with the incidence of COVID-19 using community-level data. Methods: This study was conducted at the districts (si·gun·gu) level in Korea. Data of COVID-19 incidence by districts were collected from the official website of each province. Data was also obtained from the Korean Statistical Information Service and the Community Health Survey; socio-demographic factor, transmission pathway, healthcare resource, and factor in response to COVID-19. Community risk factors that drive the incidence of COVID-19 were selected using a least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression. Results: As of June 2021, the incidence of COVID-19 differed by more than 80 times between districts. Among the candidate factors, sex ratio, population aged 20-29, local financial independence, population density, diabetes prevalence, and failure to comply with the quarantine rules were significantly associated with COVID-19 incidence. Conclusion: This study suggests setting COVID-19 quarantine policy and allocating resources, considering the community risk factors. Protecting vulnerable groups should be a high priority for these policies.

본 연구는 C시에 소재한 보건소의 방문건강관리 대상 노인 중 만성 관절통증이 있는 65세이상 취약계층 재가 여성노인 234명을 대상으로 삶의 질에 영향을 미치는 주요 요인을 파악하기 위한 서술적 상관관계 연구이다. 본 연구의 자료는 일반적 특성, 통증양상, 통증정도, 지각된 건강상태, 일상생활능력, 수면양상, 우울, 삶의 질로 구성된 구조화된 설문지를 통해 2017년 2월 16일부터 3월 13일에 걸쳐 수집되었으며, t-test, ANOVA, 상관분석, 위계적 다중 회귀분석으로 분석하였다. 연구결과, 대상자의 일반적 특성을 포함하여 대상자의 삶의 질에 영향을 미친 변수는 우울(${\beta}=-.60$, p<.001), 통증정도(${\beta}=-.15$, p=.007), 의료보장 유형(${\beta}=.15$, p=.001), 지각된 건강상태(${\beta}=.14$, p=.007), 통증지속기간(${\beta}=-.10$, p=.019), 결혼상태(${\beta}=.10$, p=.024), 일상생활능력(${\beta}=.09$, p=.036)순으로 나타났으며, 모형의 총 설명력은 63.1%였다. 본 연구를 통해 만성 관절통증이 있는 재가 여성노인의 삶의 질을 향상시키기 위해서는 지역사회 중심의 체계적인 우울 예방 및 관리 프로그램 운영이 우선 실시되어야 하며, 특히 경제적으로 취약한 공적부조 대상 노인의 삶의 질에 관심을 기울여야 하고, 통증 발현 초기부터 통증에 대한 정확한 사정을 토대로 통증완화중재 개입을 시행해야 한다.
