본 논문은 부패문제의 중요성에 대한 대중적 인식의 확산과 부패를 측정하는 연구모형의 중요성을 고려하여 기존의 부패지수 측정모형들을 비교 ${\cdot}$ 분석하였다. 이 연구에서는 서울시정개발연구원에서 개발한 “서울시 시정청렴성지수 측정모형”과 “경실련 부패지수 측정모형”을 분석의 대상으로 선정하여 ‘지표 및 지수선정방식의 적정성’, ‘조사설계의 적절성’, ‘통계활용의 적절성’의 3가지 측면에서 분석하였다. 본 연구에서 발견된 두 모형의 문제점은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 지표 및 지수선정방식에 있어서, 경실련부패지수는 지표가 너무 세분화되어 있고, 중복적인 지표도 다수 포함되어 있었으며, 지표별 가중치를 두지 않음으로써 지표별 중요도를 고려하지 않았다. 시정청렴지수 측정모형은 가중치를 부여하기 위한 가중치평가단에 일반시민에 대한 조사가 포함되어 있지 않아 부패를 체감하는 당사자인 민원인들의 의견을 수렴하지 못하였다 서울시 모형은 부패수준에 대한 직접적인 질문이 빠져 있어 실질적인 부패수준과 인식수준과의 차이점을 밝혀내지 못하였다. 둘째, 조사 설계의 적절성 여부에서는, 경실련 부패지수는 표본수가 너무 적어서 조사의 신뢰성에 문제가 있었으며, 조사방법에 있어서 각 구청에서 출구조사를 실시함으로써 객관성을 떨어뜨리고 있다. 질문문항의 수도 총 38문항으로 시정청렴성지수의 13문항에 비하여 지나치게 많은 감이 있으며 질문을 작성함에 있어 불명확하고 중복적인 용어가 사용되고 있었다. 셋째, 통계활용의 적절성 부분에서는, 시정청렴성지수 측정모형의 경우, 객관적 통계의 활용에 문제점을 제기하여 지표체계에서 삭제하였으며, 경실련 부패지수에서는 1995년부터 1999년까지의 서울시 각 자치구 소속 공무원의 징계자료를 수집하여 자료로 사용하였다. 통계를 자료로 사용가능하기 위해서는 충분한 양의 징계건수가 필요하며, 통계의 신뢰성이 높아야 한다. 현재 우리나라에서 집계되는 통계는 부패의 일각만을 나타내는 것으로 판단된다. 게다가 징계 유형별로 어느 정도의 가중치를 줄 것인가에 대한 객관적인 방법이 아직 개발되어 있지 않은 실정이어서 이러한 점에서 아직까지 객관적 통계자료의 사용은 한계를 가지고 있다. 위의 문제점들이 개선되기 위해서는 평가지표에 객관적 자료가 추가되고, 다양한 평가지표들이 발굴되어야 하며, 각 지표간의 가중치문제가 해결되어야 한다.

Purpose: With the increasing prevalence of orthodontic treatment in adults, clear aligner treatments are becoming more popular. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of orthodontic treatment on periodontal tissue and to compare orthodontic treatment with fixed appliances (FA) to clear aligner treatment (CAT) in periodontitis patients. Methods: A total of 35 patients who underwent orthodontic treatment in the Department of Periodontology were included in this study. After periodontal treatment with meticulous oral hygiene education, patients underwent treatment with FA or CAT, and this study analyzed patient outcomes depending on the treatment strategy. Clinical parameters were assessed at baseline and after orthodontic treatment, and the duration of treatment was compared between these two groups. Results: The overall plaque index, the gingival index, and probing depth improved after orthodontic treatment (P<0.01). The overall bone level also improved (P=0.045). However, the bone level changes in the FA and CAT groups were not significantly different. Significant differences were found between the FA and CAT groups in probing depth, change in probing depth, and duration of treatment (P<0.05). However, no significant differences were found between the FA and CAT groups regarding the plaque index, changes in the plaque index, the gingival index, changes in the gingival index, or changes in the alveolar bone level. The percentage of females in the CAT group (88%) was significantly greater than in the FA group (37%) (P<0.01). Conclusions: After orthodontic treatment, clinical parameters were improved in the FA and CAT groups with meticulous oral hygiene education and plaque control. Regarding plaque index and gingival index, no significant differences were found between these two groups. We suggest that combined periodontal and orthodontic treatment can improve patients' periodontal health irrespective of orthodontic techniques.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the clinical and metabolic determinants of circulating soluble leptin receptor (CSLR) and free leptin index (FLI) in pre-pubertal obese male children. Methods: We conducted a preliminary cross-sectional study at three tertiary hospitals and one public primary school. Eighty obese male children without growth and developmental abnormalities aged 5-9 years were recruited. In these children, obesity was solely caused by excessive food intake, and not by acute illness, medications, endocrine abnormalities, or any syndrome. Body mass index (BMI), body fat mass, carbohydrate intake, fat intake, high density lipoprotein cholesterol level, low density lipoprotein cholesterol level, triglyceride level, and Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance are the potential determinants for leptin regulation, which is represented by CSLR level and FLI. Results: Carbohydrate was the main source of energy. BMI and body fat mass had negative weak correlation with CSLR and positive weak correlation with FLI. Furthermore, carbohydrate intake was found to be independently associated with CSLR based on the results of the multiple linear regression analysis. Following an increase in carbohydrate intake, CSLR level decreased progressively without any negative peak. Conclusion: Leptin regulation in prepubertal obese male children is associated with body composition and dietary intake. Carbohydrate intake is useful for predicting CSLR. Lipid profiles and insulin resistance are not related to both CSLR and FLI. Treatment and prevention of leptin resistance in obese children should focus on reducing BMI, fat mass, and carbohydrate intake.

Drought is considered as a devastating hazard that causes serious agricultural, ecological and socio-economic impacts worldwide. Fundamentally, the drought can be defined as temporarily different levels of inadequate precipitation, soil moisture, and water supply relative to the long-term average conditions. From no unified definition of droughts, droughts have been divided into different severity level, i.e., moderate drought, severe drought, extreme drought and exceptional drought. The drought severity classification defined the ranges for each indicator for each dryness level. Because the ranges of the various indicators often don't coincide, the final drought category tends to be based on what the majority of the indicators show and on local observations. Evaporative Stress Index (ESI), a satellite-based drought index using the ratio of potential and actual evaporation, is being used as a index of the droughts occurring rapidly in a short period of time from studies showing a more sensitive and fast response to drought compared to Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI), and Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI). However, ESI is difficult to provide an objective drought assessment because it does not have clear drought severity classification criteria. In this study, U.S. Drought Monitor (USDM), the standard for drought determination used in the United States, was applied to ESI, and the Percentile method was used to classify drought categories by severity. Regarding the actual 2017 drought event in South Korea, we compare the spatial distribution of drought area and understand the USDM-based ESI by comparing the results of Standardized Groundwater level Index (SGI) and drought impact information. These results demonstrated that the USDM-based ESI could be an effective tool to provide objective drought conditions to inform management decisions for drought policy.

이전 연구를 통하여 터널 굴진에 따른 터널 막장의 붕괴 위험에 대한 잠재 수준을 정량적으로 평가하기 위한 툴인 KTH-index(KICT Tunnel Collapse Hazard index) 지수화된 위험도 수준 표현 툴을 개발한바 있으며, 이는 다수의 시공현장에 성공적으로 적용되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 제안된 터널 위험도 지수를 기반으로 수행된 터널 설계안의 전 종단구간에 대해 정량적인 위험도 수준을 시뮬레이션 하는 새로운 설계안 적정성 평가 방법을 제안하였다. 본 KTH-index 기반 시뮬레이션에서 가장 중요한 것은 시뮬레이션을 위한 입력항목의 결정이며, 대부분의 설계안 관련 항목과 시공관련 항목은 직접적으로 설계안으로부터 결정될 수 있으나, 불명확한 지반조건은 설계 당시 때 수행된 시추조사와 전기비저항 탐사를 기초로 준비된다. 이때, 낙관적 시나리오와 비관적 시나리오에 기반한 터널 종단 지반조건 시나리오가 설정되었다. 이러한 위험도 시뮬레이션을 통해서, 시뮬레이션 대상 설계안에 대한 위험도 수준을 사전에 파악할 수 있었으며, 사전에 파악된 요 주의구간은 시공단계와 연결시켜 시공 중 계측이나 막장관찰 시에 요긴하게 활용될 수 있는 정보를 제공할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to measure the inter-rater reliability of Emergency severity index (ESI) version 4 among triage nurse. Methods: This study was carried out from August 11, 2010 to September 7, 2010 in a regional emergency department. Data collection was done by ten triage nurses who trained ESI v.4. Two research nurses and ten triage nurses scored the ESI version 4 to the patients as references, independently. We calculated the weighted kappa between the triage nurses and research nurses to evaluate the consistency of the ESI v.4. Results: A total of 233 patients were enrolled in this study. Classification of ESI level was as follows - level 1 (0.4%), level 2 (21.0%), level 3 (67.8%), level 4 (9.4%), and level 5 (1.3%). Inter-rater reliability by weighted kappa was 0.79 (95% Confidence Interval= 0.74-0.83) and agreement rate was 87.1%. Under-triage rate by triage nurse was 6.0% and over-triage rate was 6.9%. Conclusion: For this study, inter-rater reliability was measured good level between triage nurses and research nurses in Korean single ED.

In order to diagnose low-level turbulence in Korea, diagnostic indices of low-level turbulence were calculated from Aug 2016 to Jul 2019 using a Korea Meteorological Administration Post Precessing (KMAPP) developed by the National Institute Meteorological Sciences (NIMS), and the indices were evaluated using Aircaft Meteorological Data Relay (AMDAR). In the mean horizontal distribution of diagnostic indices calculated, severe turbulence was simulated along major domestic mountains, including near the Taebaek Mountains, the Sobaek Mountains and Hallasan Mountain on Jeju Island due to geographical factors. Later, detection performance was evaluated by calculating the KMAPP Low-Level Turbulencd index (KLT) on combined index, using AUC value of Individual diagnostic indices as a weight. The result showed that the AUC value of KLT was 0.73, and the detection performance was improved (0.02-0.13) when the index was combined. Also, when looking for the AMDAR data is divided into years, seasons, and altitudes, up to 0.94 AUC values were found in winter (DJF) and the surface (surface-1,000ft). By using high-resolution numerical data reflecting detailed terrain data, local turbulence distribution was well demonstrated and high detection performance was shown at low-level.
