  • The potential for traumatic brain injury resulting from falling coconuts is frequently overlooked. These incidents can cause focal lesions in the form of brain hemorrhage. Corpus callosum hemorrhage due to blunt trauma from a falling object is rare and typically associated with poor prognosis. The purpose of this report is to detail a case of corpus callosum hemorrhage caused by a coconut fall and to discuss the conservative management approach employed. We report the case of a 54-year-old woman who was admitted to the hospital with symptoms of unconsciousness, headache, and expressive aphasia after being struck by a falling coconut. Notably, hemorrhage was detected within the body of the corpus callosum, as revealed by imaging findings. The patient received intensive monitoring and treatment in the intensive care unit, including oxygen therapy, saline infusion, an osmotic diuretic, analgesics, and medication to prevent stress ulcers. The patient demonstrated marked clinical improvement while undergoing conservative treatment. Despite the typically unfavorable prognosis of these rare injuries, our patient exhibited meaningful clinical improvement with conservative treatment. Timely diagnosis and appropriate interventions were crucial in managing the patient's condition. This report emphasizes the importance of considering traumatic brain injury caused by falling coconuts and highlights the need for further research and awareness in this area.

  • 학교구강보건은 학생의 구강건강을 합리적으로 관리하고, 구강건강에 대한 지식과 태도 및 행동을 변화시켜, 일생동안 구강건강을 적절히 관리할 수 있는 능력을 배양시키는 과정이다. 이러한 학교구강보건의 목적은 학생의 구강질환을 예방하고 초기에 치료함으로써, 구강건강을 증진 유지시켜 건전한 심신을 양성하여 교육 본래의 목표를 달성함에 있다. 이에 본 연구는 중학생의 구강건강에 대한 인식 및 행동을 파악하여 대상에 알맞은 학습 목표와 교육방법을 모색하고 효과적인 구강건강관리 방안을 위한 기초자료로 활용하고자 실시하였다. 농촌 지역인 충청북도 OO군에 소재한 중학교 학생들을 대상으로 자기기입방식의 설문조사를 실시한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 중학생의 구강건강 지식에 대한 항목 중 치과질환의 증상에 대한 인지율에 비해 부정 교합의 원인(51.5%)과 잇몸병 예방법(15.1%) 등 치과질환의 원인과 예방법에 대한 인지율이 낮은 것으로 조사되었다. 2. 잇솔질 시기에 대한 지식과 행동을 비교하여 살펴본 결과 인식 및 행동 모두 50% 수준 또는 그 이하였으며, 특히 점심식사 후에는 46.2%가 인식, 실천은 33.0%에 불과하였다. 3. 하루 잇솔질 횟수는 하루에 두 번 하는 경우(47.5%)가 가장 많았으나, 한 번 또는 한 번도 닦지 않는다는 응답(5.8%)도 있어 소수의 학생들이지만 잇솔질 실천이 매우 저조한 것으로 조사되었다. 4. 중학생들의 간식섭취 횟수는 일일 2회 이하가 68.8%였으나, 5회 이상 섭취하는 학생도 9.8%로 조사되었으며, 남학생은 5회 이상이 15.8%로 조사되어 성별의 차이가 있었다(p<0.01). 5. 전신건강 중 치아가 차지하는 비중에 대해 30-40% 중요하다는 응답이 31.3%로 가장 많았으며, 다음으로 50-60% 중요하다 30.6%, 60%이상 중요하다 29.9%고 응답하여 학생들은 전신건강 중 구강건강이 매우 중요하다고 인지하고 있는 것으로 조사되었다. 반면, 치과내원은 이가 아플 때에만 간다 49.3%로 가장 많았으며, 이가 아팠지만 치과에는 가지 않았다 21.7%로 응답하여 치아의 중요성에 대한 인지도에 비해 치과에 내원하는 비율은 매우 낮은 것으로 분석되었다. 6. 현재 우리나라 학교구강보건사업은 초등학생을 대상으로 한 세부적인 프로그램과 국가의 지원은 있으나 청소년을 위한 구체적인 프로그램 및 지원은 미비한 상태이다. 건강에 대해 자기 스스로 관리할 수 있는 시기인 청소년 시기의 학교구강보건사업은 효과적이라고 판단되며, 이 시기에 구강보건교육을 비롯한 구체적인 구강건강증진 프로그램이 개발되어 학교구강보건사업이 중 고등학교에도 확대 실시되어야 할 것으로 검토되었다.

  • 우리나라는 바이오정보의 산업적 성장 가능성에만 주목하고 있어서 바이오정보의 수집 및 관리를 위한 사회적 논의는 빈약한 실정이다. 이러한 문제의식 아래 본 연구는 바이오정보의 활용을 위한 사회적 논의의 기본 토대가 될 수 있는 시민들의 인식 현황을 조사하였다. 설문조사결과를 통해 확인할 수 있는 가장 큰 특징은 많은 시민들이 목적별 바이오 인식기술 사용에 대해 긍정적 의견을 표하고, 국가의 지문정보 수집에 대해서도 개방적인 입장을 취하고 있지만 동시에 바이오 인식기술을 통한 본인인증 시스템에 상당한 우려를 가지고 있다는 점이다. 특히 바이오정보를 수집하는 기관에 대해 신뢰하기 어렵다는 점을 지적하고 있다. 또한 신체정보를 비롯한 건강정보에 대해서는 각별한 우려를 표했으며, 다른 개인정보에 비해 더 엄격한 규제가 필요하다는데 압도적인 동의를 표시했다. 의료기관에서 수집되는 의료정보에 대해서도 설문에 응한 80%에 가까운 사람들이 영리업체 제공에 대해 동의하지 않았으며, 심지어 통계 학술연구를 위해 사용한다는 것에조차 60%가 넘는 사람들이 동의하지 않았다. 이와 같은 결과는 바이오정보의 공익적 활용을 위해서라도 철저한 관리가 필요하다는 사실을 잘 보여주고 있다. 나아가 국가적 관리 시스템과 제도 마련 과정에서 일반인들이 참여해 의견을 개진 할 수 있도록 현재의 개인정보영향평가 제도를 개선할 필요가 있음을 강조하고자 한다.

  • There has recently been an increased interest in women's health from, various disciplines, with different perspectives presented according to each profession's academic background. This has led to many instances of incorrectly defining, or misinterpretation, of the issues even among professionals. Nurse scholars as well as practitioners who work in women's health care need to have a clear conceptual understanding of women's health in order to build a body of knowledge, delineate curricular activities, and set directions for professional nursing interventions. In addition, a conceptual model that may be directly utilized in practice is needed to maintain and promote women's health issues. The purpose of this study was to apply a Hybrid model, analyzing conceptual definitions and discussions related to women's health gathered from review of the literature. Further to compare analyticals the concepts and properties observed from field work, so as to present a final definition of women's health and, build a conceptual framework for a united comprehensive perspective on the concept as well as on nursing practice. Data collection and analysis consisted of a theoretical stage, field work stage, and final analysis. A heterogeneous group of professionals and lay persons, 39 in all, participated in the field work. Study findings Include several subconcepts under the concept of women's health : a woman's whole life, holistic health, quality of life, awareness of being a woman, individual nursing, self care ability, reproductive health, and family health. Thus, a comprehensive definition was built, 1. e., "Women's health care be defined as improvement in the quality of life of women through attainment of holistic health throughout the life span. With reproductive health at the core, the concept is directly related to family and national health, and includes taking care of one's own health based on awareness of being a woman and utilizing self care activities. Women's health care issues are unique and allow various responses, therefore women's health professionals need to apply individual approaches to reach solutions in attaining holistic health and improving quality of life." The constructual factors of women's health were found to be reproductive functions, diseases more common in woman, self actualization, mental health, women's health policies, sexuality, midlife changes, and marital relations, with each factor having more than three properties. Positive factors affecting women's health were found to be a normal childbearing process, a healthy lifestyle, active health management, health information, support, and resources, and interpersonal relationships. Negative factors were found to be overwhelming role stress, cultural oppression, gender inequality, distorted sexual identity, economic difficulties, misuse and/or abuse of substances, and stress. The model of women's health may be visualized as a balance scale set upon a woman's life, supporting 4 concentric circles. The innermost circle and second circle incorporate conceptual definitions of women's health, and the outer two circles represent the constructional factors and properties of women's health. Each circle has its own color that symbolizes the conceptual meaning. Positive and negative factors are represented as weights at either end of the scale, and are affected by nursing intervention, i. e., health and wellness increase when positive factors are stronger, whereas disease and illness increase when negative factors are stronger. This model is only a preliminary effort and requires much discussion and testing to be further developed. Continuous research is also required.

  • Provider-oriented weather information has been rapidly changing to become more customer-oriented and personalized. Given the increasing interest in wellness and health topics, the demand for health weather information, and biometeorology, also increased. However, research on changes in the human body according to weather conditions is still insufficient due to various constraints, and interdisciplinary research is also lacking. As part of an effort to change that, this study surveyed medical practitioners at an actual treatment site, using questionnaires, to investigate what kind of weather information they could utilize. Although there was a limit to the empirical awareness that medical staff had about weather information, most respondents noted that there is a correlation between disease and weather, with cardiovascular diseases (coronary artery disease (98.5%) and hypertension (95.9% ), skin diseases (atopic dermatitis (100%), sunburn (93.8%)) being the most common weather-sensitive ailments. Although there are subject-specific differences, most weather-sensitive diseases tend to be affected by temperature and humidity in general. Respiratory and skin diseases are affected by wind and solar radiation, respectively.

  • BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Youth is the crucial stage between childhood and adulthood during which an individual acquires new behavior and practices including dietary habits, that may be influenced by his peers, social circle, nutrition knowledge level and other factors. The increase in awareness of young adults is of special importance from the perspective of health and prevention of obesity related chronic diseases. To measure the nutrition literacy level of university students using the Turkish version of Adolescent Nutrition Literacy Scale (ANLS). We evaluated their food habits using the Adolescent Food Habit Checklist (AFHC) tool and analysed it, if the eating habits were affected by nutrition literacy level. SUBJECTS/METHODS: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted on randomly selected 276 students studying in the Faculty of Health Sciences of Istanbul Aydin University, Turkey. Data was collected by means of ANLS and AFHC tools by face to face interview method. SPSS statistical sofware (IBM SPSS Statistics 19) was used to analyse the obtained data. RESULTS: Participants comprised of 47.1% males and 52.9% females with mean age of $20.0{\pm}1.60years$. Mean body mass index (BMI) was determined as $22.4{\pm}3.76$ ($23.6{\pm}3.63$ males $21.3{\pm}3.57$ females). Functional, interactive and critical nutritional literacy scores for male participants were $22.49{\pm}5.71$, $17.45{\pm}4.84$, and $28.28{\pm}7.13$ respectively (total $64.98{\pm}10.15$). For females the values were $24.66{\pm}5.13$, $20.17{\pm}4.28$, and $32.20{\pm}5.65$ (total $69.72{\pm}8.59$) respectively. For all the three sub-categories of nutrition literacy, the scores acquired by females were significantly higher than males (P < 0.001). In the AFHC tool, the mean score acquired by males were $9.26{\pm}4.18$ whereas for females it was $10.37{\pm}3.40$ significantly higher as compared to males (P = 0.007). CONCLUSION: The food habits of female participants were better than males; in accordance with their nutrition literacy status. It may be concluded that food habits are influenced by nutrition literacy and therefore stress much be given to increase the nutrition awareness among children youth as well as adults.

  • The purpose of this study was to understand how vegetarian diets in Taiwanese hospitals are well established and provide suggestion for successful implementation in Korea. Micro-ethnographic case study with in-depth interviews, field observations, and paper reviews were used for this study. Experiences of doctors and nutritionists from Taiwanese hospitals where deliver vegetarian hospital diets were analyzed. This research found out Taiwanese life respect culture has influence on introducing vegetarian diets in hospital, besides most Participants agreed to use vegetarian diets for the medical purpose according to their clinic experiences and research results. Meanwhile there is no restriction to compel patients to keep vegetarian diets. All participants answered food has a large effect on the human body and further study on vegetarian diets' efficacy is required. The hospital chief's decision making is crucial to introduce vegetarian diets in hospitals. For the bigger picture, social supports, organizational supports and national policy supports are all important factors for it. The implications and recommendations for Korean hospitals were discussed. The public awareness for vegetarian diet for medical purpose along with research on its efficacy would be needed. In order to make good use of a vegetarian diet for medical purposes, we first need to build a vegetarian-friendly environment, go deep into the study of a diet's effects using diverse methodologies, and combine the diet with traditional medicine theory. Based on the results of this primary study, more related studies should be carried out in the future.

  • Korean-Japanese architect Itami Jun that proceeded with primeval architecture based on analogue ideas in the digital era realizing nomad architecture is delivering a totally different meaning in the modern time. Not like the Japanese architectural community equipped with rich technologies showed state-of-the-art architecture after 1980s, Itami Jun' formative consciousness intending to assimilate nature from the original position of things is thought to have started from the relationship with Korean-Japanese painters leading MONO-HA desiring to look at the world as it is and approach the source of existence. The purpose of this study is to analyze the spatial characteristics from the viewpoint of 'Theory of Meeting' which is the essence of the work theory of Lee UFan that made the theoretical foundation of MONO-HA to understand Itami Jun's architectural space in the ideological aspect. Although the characteristics of marginal men appearing in Itami Jun's architectural space as others located on the boundary between Korea and Japan, art and architecture, and functions are valuable research objects, they have not been studied in the aspect of source, so it is needed to research his works and the source of the spatial ideas that led his works. Based on Theory of Meeting claiming that the world becomes the place of experience by the medium of objet which is the structure of meeting, and that human beings can meet the truly opened world by self-awareness through body, the expressive characteristics of Itami Jun's interior space was analyzed. As a result of the analysis, it turned out that Itami Jun's interior space actively expressed Theory of Meeting on the unity of structure and space, and on the trans-boundary by the medium of objet. Conclusively, this study suggests that, in the reality of the modern interior design full of technology-intensive designs, analogue approach moving in the opposite way from technologies could be a better expressive method of design delivering the fundamental human emotions.

  • Currently, the global furniture market can not overlook environmental problems due to changes in environmental regulations. In order to grow into a global corporation, environmentally friendly design became essential. In addition, domestic and foreign consumers are increasingly interested in and spending on children's furniture, and demand for environment - friendly furniture for children's health and emotional development is increasing. In the era of universal consumer tastes due to massive mass production, it has been changed into a multi-product small-volume production period that reflects the preferences of various consumers, so that various types of furniture that meet individual preferences are required. Therefore, in this study, we investigated various personal opinions, perception, preference, propensity to use furniture, purchasing points, etc. for environmentally friendly children's furniture, and provided basic data for environmentally friendly children's furniture development that reflects consumer preference and requirements. Accordingly, 243 parents who have more than one child living in Seoul, Gyeonggi, and Incheon were surveyed about the use of children's furniture and the perception and preference of environmentally friendly children's furniture. According to the survey results, 64.57% of the respondents knew about eco - friendly children's furniture and the most popular way to get to know eco-friendly furniture was Internet advertising (49.48%). The rate of recognizing eco-friendly furniture as healthy furniture with no emission of hazardous substances was high as 56.16%. The purchase intention of eco-friendly children's furniture was very high at 86.01% and the most important factor in purchasing was the harmlessness to the human body (56.88%). 59.50% said that it is not possible to distinguish environmentally friendly furniture, which means that there is not much information to consumers yet. In addition, the preferred price range is 500~1000 thousand won, and the preference for the rest furniture is high. In the preferred form type, unit type modular furniture is 36.13%, in the material, wood is 72.35%, in the color, the color of wood with wood grain is high as 45.56%.
