연구배경: 우울은 저하된 기분이 비교적 경미한 수준인 일상 우울과 병적 상태인 임상적 우울로 구분할 수 있다. 우울 경험은 치료순응도 저하, 신체증상 등을 경험하게 하여 의료이용을 높일 수 있으나 우울 중 임상적 우울 집단은 질환에 대한 사회적 편견을 경험하여 의료이용이 제한될 수 있다. 의료이용은 개인 나아가 사회 문제의 원인이 되어 중요하다는 측면에서 본 연구는 임상적 우울 집단, 일상 우울, 비우울 집단의 의료이용을 비교하여 살펴보고자 한다. 방법: 일반화 성향점수(generalized propensity score) 기반 처치역확률가중기법(inverse probability of treatment weighting)을 이용하여 비우울, 일상 우울, 임상적 우울 집단 간 공변량의 불균형을 최소화하고 우울과 의료이용, 총진료비의 관계를 각각 음이항 회귀분석과 로그변환한 선형회귀분석을 통해 확인하였다. 결과: 우울은 여성, 소득이 낮은 집단, 교육수준이 낮거나 배우자가 없거나 건강보험에 가입되지 않았거나 경제활동을 하지 않은 집단에서 높았으며, 우울중 임상적 우울은 경제활동을 하지 않거나 민간의료보험에 미가입된 집단, 질환의 보유개수가 많은 집단에서 비중이 높았다. 의료이용 횟수는 우울 집단(일상 우울 집단 및 임상적 우울 집단)이 비우울 집단보다 유의하게 높았으며, 임상적 우울 집단이 일상 우울 집단보다 유의하게 높았다. 총진료비는 우울 집단이 비우울 집단보다 높았으나, 임상적 우울 집단과 일상 우울 집단 간에는 유의한 차이가 없었다. 결론: 의료이용은 비우울 집단보다 우울 집단(임상적 우울 집단 과 일상 우울 집단)에서 높았으며, 임상적 우울 집단보다 일상 우울 집단에서 높았다.

Effects on skin caused by the dose from linear accelerator (LINAC) opposing portal irradiation and TomoDirect 3-D modeling treatment according to the radiation devices and treatment methods were measured, and a comparative analysis was performed. Two groups of 10 patients each were created and measurements were carried out using an optically stimulated luminescence dosimeter. These patients were already receiving radiation treatment in the hospital. Using the SPSS statistical program, the minimum and maximum average standard deviations of the measured skin dose data were obtained. Two types of treatment method were selected as independent variables; the measured points and total average were the dependent variables. An independent sample T-test was used, and it was checked whether there was a significance probability between the two groups. The average of the measured results for the LINAC opposing portal radiation was 117.7 cGy and PDD 65.39% for the inner breast, 144.7 cGy and PDD 80.39% for the outer breast, 143.2 cGy and PDD 79.56% for the upper breast, 151.4 cGy and PDD 84.11% for the lower breast, 149.6 cGy and PDD 83.11% for the axilla, and 141.32 cGy and PDD 78.51% for the total average. In contrast, for TomoDirect 3-D conformal radiotherapy, the corresponding measurement values were 137.6 cGy and PDD 76.44%, 152.3 cGy and PDD 84.61%, 148.6 cGy and PDD 82.56%, 159.7 cGy and PDD 88.72%, and 148.6 cGy PDD 82.56%, respectively, and the total average was 149.36 cGy and PDD 82.98%. To determine if the difference between the total averages was statistically significant, the independent sample T-test of the SPSS statistical program was used, which indicated that the P-value was P=0.024, which was 0.05 lower than the significance level. Thus, it can be understood that the null hypothesis can be dismissed, and that there was a difference in the averages. In conclusion, even though the treatment dose was similar, there could be a difference in the dose entering the body surface from the radiation treatment plan; however, depending on the properties of the treatment devices, there is a difference in the dose affecting the body surface. Thus, the absorbed dose entering the body surface can be high. During breast cancer radiotherapy, radiation dermatitis occurs in almost all patients. Most patients have a difficult time while undergoing treatment, and therefore, when choosing a radiotherapy treatment method, minimizing radiation dermatitis is an important consideration.

Purpose - Since the local liquor industry uses the agricultural products produced in the region as the main raw material, cultivation of the industry can be a way to expand the demand for domestic agricultural products and can contribute to the income increase of the farmers. In addition, the local liquor industry can be developed into a region-specific industry differentiated from other regions by linking with the region's tourism resources. Therefore, in order to achieve various derivative effects through promotion of the local liquor industry, it is necessary to precisely understand the factors related to the purchase and consumption of local liquor which then will lead to an increase in consumption. This study analyzes the current status and problems of local liquor industries and examines the determinants of consumers' purchasing decisions of regional specialties through questionnaires. We will then propose a strategy to promote consumption of locally produced alcoholic beverages. Research design, data, and methodology - An online Domestic Consumer Survey was conducted to identify the actual purchases and uses of local liquors for 500 consumers nationwide. Based on the questionnaire results, the analysis uses an ordered probit model. Results - As a result of analyzing the effect of consumer characteristics on the purchase of local liquors, it was found that the average cost of drinking, income, local specialty, brewery experience, and health concerns have a significant effect on gender, drinking frequency. All the variables except the participation in the training of the special provincial manufacturing method were found to be statistically significant. The statistical significance was at a 1% significance level for the remaining factors excluding the bottle design. This shows that the higher taste, quality, price, and harmony with food, the higher the probability of purchasing local liquors. Conclusions - In the analysis of factors influencing the purchase intention of local liquors, it was found that factors such as taste, quality, price, and harmony with food had a significant effect. Given the diversity of purchasing factors, the importance of diversification strategies is emphasized again. In particular, it will be important to secure wide publicity for local liquors through various PR strategies.

공공사업 타당성 평가나 대안 선정에서는 대부분 AHP 기법을 활용하여 대안별 가중합 방식으로 최종 점수를 산정하고 그 값이 가장 큰 대안을 선택하고 있다. 특히 타당성 분석과 같은 경우에는 최종 점수가 0.5보다 큰 대안을 선택하게 되는데, 그 값이 0.5보다 얼마나 커야 의사결정이 의미있고 설득력있는 판단이라고 할 수 있는지에 대한 합리적인 기준 없이 적용되고 있다. 한국개발연구원(KDI)에서 제시한 방법론에는 사업진행 대안의 종합 점수가 0.5 근처에 있는 경우를 회색 영역으로 구분하여 신중한 결정을 하도록 제시하고 있는데, 세부기준에 관한 이론적 검토는 빈약하다. 반면, 통계적 검정의 개념을 도입하여 시도된 분석사례에서는 가중합 평가 점수의 확률분포로서 정규분포 또는 베타분포를 가정하였으나, 이에 대한 분포적 타당성은 제시되지 않았다. 본 논문에서는 현재 다양한 분야에서 적용되고 있는 가중합 평가 방식의 사례를 검토하여 그 결과의 통계적 검정의 필요성을 제기하고, 통계적 검정을 위하여 특정 분포를 가정하지 않는 비모수적 검정 방법을 제시한다. 그리고 본 연구에서 제시한 방법을 국방 분야의 사례에 적용하고 그 함의와 함께 향후 연구의 발전방향을 제안한다.

Purpose: Integrative studies have been made to review the correlationship of menstrual period with obesity and stress, and the relationship between stress and obesity has been reconfirmed through the study. Methods: Among the first time outpatients who visited the gynecological department of the OO oriental medical center from May 1st to September 1st of the year 2009, total 114 patients were included for the study by excluding the patients who received uterine hysterectomy, patients taking hormonal medications, and the patients who installed intrauterine devices. Survey has been made to investigate patients' age, menstrual period and duration of menstrual period. The investigation for the degree of obesity and stress was conducted as in below. Results: 1. From the menstrual cycle difference reviewed by Gonadosomatic index (GSI), the severe GSI group tended to show longer menstrual cycle than moderative GSI group. 2. From the menstrual cycle difference reviewed by Body Mass Index (BMI), longer menstrual cycle was observed from the abnormal BMI group than the normal BMI group. 3. No correlative probability values of GSI and BMI were observed. 4. Although the linear regression analysis result of BMI and GSI with the menstrual cycle did not show any statistical significance, the study resulted to show a tendency. Conclusion: Although the correlationship of menstrual cycle with obesity and stress did not show any significance, it is considered that the menstrual period could be affected by the combination of the variables rather than by independent variable.

Purpose: There is currently little evidence to support intravenous immune globulin (IVIG) therapy for pediatric myocarditis. The purpose of our retrospective study was to assess the effects of IVIG therapy in patients with presumed myocarditis on survival and recovery of ventricular function and to determine the factors associated with its poor outcome. Methods: We reviewed all consecutive cases of patients with myocarditis with left ventricular dysfunction verified by echocardiogram who had visited 3 university hospitals between January 2000 and September 2009. These patients were divided into 2 groups. Group 1 consisted of 23 patients (69.6%) who received IVIG alone or IVIG in combination with steroids, and group 2 consisted of 10 patients (30.3%) who received neither IVIG nor other immunosuppressive agents. Clinical manifestations, laboratory results, echocardiographic findings, and outcomes were compared between these 2 groups. Results: One year after the initial presentation, the difference in the probability of survival did not show statistical significance in IVIGtreated patients ($P$=0.607). Of the echocardiographic parameters on admission, a shortening fraction of less than 15% was associated with unremitting cardiac failure. Furthermore, anemic patients were more likely to have elevated N-terminal fragment levels of the B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in the progressed group ($P$=0.036). Conclusion: There was no difference between the IVIG-treated patients and the control patients in the degree of recovery of left ventricular function and survival. Prospective, randomized, clinical studies are needed to elucidate the effects of IVIG treatment during the acute stage of myocarditis on ultimate outcomes.

A natural population of Adonis multiflora, a spring ephemeral herb growing in temperate deciduous forests, was studied to determine the seed production characteristics. Plant size, flowering time, and seed number were monitored from February 2009 to May 2011 in main growing season (i.e., from March through May). The biomass rates of the shoot and the root in the A. multiflora population were 22-24% and 76-78%, respectively, and the biomass of the root was proportional to that of the shoot. The flowering rate was 60% in the plants with 1 to 2 g of shoot biomass, and 100% in the plants with >2 g of shoot biomass. In the plants with root biomass between 4 and 6 g, the flowering rate was 43% and, in the plants with the root biomass over 8 g, it was 100%. The shoot biomass was a better predictor of the flower production probability than the root biomass. The number of flowers and seeds was closely correlated to shoot biomass at 1% significance level. The size of the plant that produced seed excessively instead of the shoot biomass in one year typically decreased in the next year and vice versa. The flowering time and its duration were closely related to the number of faithful seeds but not to that of total seeds. The number of faithful seeds was proportionate to flowering duration and inversely proportionate to flowering time (year day, YD). In a plant, the number of faithful seeds noticeably decreased with the inflorescence (i.e., order of flower in a plant), and this difference between the two successive flowers was significant at the 1% level between the first and the third flower in 2009 and 2011 but not between the third and the fourth. However, the number of total seeds was mostly similar in the first through the fourth flower for all three years.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to measure and compare the removal torques of different cements applied in attachments of zirconia restorations on titanium (Ti) abutments fitted with retrievable cement-type slot (RCS) on the lingual side for the better retrievablity by use of a slot driver. Materials and Methods: Three types of cements were used in the experiment: two permanent cements in $RelyX^{TM}$ U200 (RU) (3M ESPE) which is a resin cement and $FujiCem^{TM}$ (FC) (GC) which is a resin-modified glass ionomer cement, and a temporary cement in $Freegenol^{TM}$ temporary cement (TC) (GC). Measurements of removal torques were conducted as follows; an attached sample was fixed on the equipment customized for the experiment; a slot driver was connected to a MGT12 (Mark-10 Corp.), a torque measurement instrument; the sample had the driver fitted to its RCS and then was rotated until the it was removed; and finally, the maximum torque value was recorded. Result: As for the removal torque measurement results, the average values were $47.9{\pm}2.6Ncm$ for RU, $43.4{\pm}1.5Ncm$ for FC, and $20.9{\pm}1.0Ncm$ for TC. The statistical analysis using Kruskal-Wallis test yielded the significance probability of P<0.05 (P=0.002), which confirmed the presence of significant differences between the three groups. Conclusion: All three cements exhibit clinically acceptable levels of removal torque when applied to an upper zirconia implant restoration fitted with a lingual slot, with RU and FC, the two permanent cements, having the significantly higher values than that of TC, the temporary cement.
