본 연구에서는 화재 현장에서의 소방진압 업무 적합도를 평가하기 위한 소방관 모의작업 프로토콜을 개발하였고 기존의 체력검정법과 평가 방식을 비교하였다. 본 연구에서 개발한 프로토콜은 모든 소방용 개인보호구를 착용한 채 복사열원 앞에서 3분 동안 걷는 동작을 포함한 총 여덟 가지 동작으로 구성되었으며 5분의 휴식을 사이에 두고 3회 반복되었다. 연구 결과로, 약 30분의 테스트 동안 소방관의 직장온과 심박수는 각각 $38.5^{\circ}C$, 185 bpm까지 상승하였다. 또한 총 소요시간과 연령보정치를 적용하지 않은 기초체력검정 결과는 유의하게 부적 상관관계를 보였다(r = -0.728, p < 0.05). 그러나 진압 경력이 긴 소방관일수록 총 소요시간은 길었던 반면, 총 소요시간과 생리적 부담 수준이 함께 고려된 평가 방식에서는 기초체력검정 결과보다 더 높은 점수를 얻었다. 이러한 결과는 단순하게 소요시간만을 이용한 평가는 생리적 서열부담을 무시할 수 있으며, 소방관 모의작업 프로토콜 이용 시 생리적 부담 수준을 함께 고려할 때에 소방진압 업무 적합도에 대한 보다 심층적인 평가가 가능함을 보여준다.

해수면의 상태를 보고 파고를 측정하는 목측은 선박이나 먼 바다에서의 파랑관측 방법으로 여전히 이용되고 있으며, 오랜 경험을 가진 숙련자의 경우에는 상당히 정확하게 파고를 관측할 수 있다. 이러한 목측의 표준지표로 뷰퍼트(Beaufort) 풍력계급표가 가장 널리 이용되고 있다. 그러나 이 지표에 설명된 해수면의 모양은 연구자 또는 일반인에게는 친숙하지 않기 때문에 파고별 대표영상 등의 보다 구체적인 참고자료가 필요하다. 현대의 현장계측기술은 실시간으로 해양관측자료를 획득할 수 있는 수준에 이르렀으며, 기존의 파고 및 기상 관측시설과 함께 현장의 해상상태 영상자료까지 획득할 수 있게 되었다. 본 연구에서는 속초 조도동방등표에 설치되어 운영 중인 실시간해양관측 시스템에 무선영상전송장치를 설치하여 파랑자료와 영상이미지를 수집하고 유의파고별로 현장이미지를 비교 및 분류하였다. 관측된 해상상태 영상들과 뷰퍼트 풍력계급표의 해면 상태 설명과 비교한 결과 해상상태 영상자료의 가치를 확인할 수 있었다. 뷰퍼트 풍력계급표는 순수하게 목측이나 파고척을 이용하여 목측으로 만들어진 것에 비해 본 연구의 결과는 정밀한 파고센서와 과학적인 해상상태 영상정보 수집으로 파고의 실체적인 모습을 파악할 수 있었으며 관측파고의 신뢰성을 제고할 수 있는 기회가 되었다.

This study was carried out to survey dietary intakes of 739 elementary students, 4-6grades, in Won-Ju area, in 1998, to enhance the effect of school foodservice. The results were as follows : 1. Most investigated students had nuclear family with one brother or one sister. 2. The average height of boys and girls was $141.0{\pm}7.7cm\;and\;141.4{\pm}8.0cm$, and the average weight of them was $35.7{\pm}8.5kg\;and\;36.1{\pm}8.5kg$, respectively. There was no significant difference between boys and girls. 3. The rates of obesity were 12.2% in urban, 7.4% in rural and 0% in remote rural area by Rohrer index and 22.9% in urban 13.9% in rural and 0% in remote rural area by the rate based on standard weight. 4. All nutrients intake of investigated students were sufficient according to recommended dietary allowances. All nutrients intake of boys were higher than those of girls. Calcium intake of children with well educated mother was higher than that of children with poorly educated mother. Children in remote rural area had lower carbohydrate, calory and calcium intake than those in other areas. 5. Students without breakfast had lower protein and iron intake and higher calory from snack than those with breakfast. 6. Students who thought themselves to be obesity had low intake of carbohydrate, total calory and calory from snack and students with regular exercise had high intake of protein, iron, calcium and calory from snack. 7. Students with unbalanced diet, snack intake in large quantities and irregular meal had lower protein, fat, iron and calcium intake and higher calory from snack than other students. As a result, Students without breakfast often had lower all nutrients except calory from snack than other students, significantly. Problems of nutrients intake of elementary students in Won-Ju area were high rate of obesity, high intake of protein, unbalanced nutrients intake of students without meal or students with excessive eating and limited calcium intake of students with poorly educated mother. It is important to confirm desirable food habits for balanced nutrients intake in all areas and to increase calcium intake of students in remote rural area.

Background and Objectives: Laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) is a very common disease among outpatients of department of otorhinolaryngology. Although there are several diagnostic tools for LPR disease and ambulatory 24-hour double-probe pH monitoring is gold standard method, empirical diagnosis by reflux symptom index and reflux finding score (RFS) are mainly used. So we analyzed the relationship between ambulatory 24-hour double-probe pH monitoring and RFS in patients with LPR. Subjective and Method: Fifty patients with LPR symptoms and abnormal RFS and ambulatory 24-hour double probe monitoring were enrolled. Each items and sum of laryngeal reflux score were compared the results of ambulatory 24-hour double-probe pH monitoring in upper (UES) and lower (LES) esophageal sphincter. Results: There were no significant correlation between the results of ambulatory 24-hour double-probe pH monitoring in UES (pH<4 and pH<5) and each item and sum of RFS. However, supine time and reflux number of UES (pH<5) were showed the partial correlations with diffuse laryngeal edema and thick endolaryngeal mucus (p=0.03, p=0.01). Although there were no relationship between the results of ambulatory 24-hour double-probe pH monitoring in LES and sum of RFS, the significant correlations presented between granuloma and total time (p=0.008), upright time (p=0.008, reflux number (p=0.049) of LES. Conclusion: Although granuloma among items of RFS showed significantly correlation with the results of ambulatory 24-hour double-probe pH monitoring in LES, there were no significant correlation between the results of ambulatory 24-hour double-probe pH monitoring in UES and LES and items and sum of RFS.

미더덕 육과 체액을 이용한 천연 조미료의 제조를 위하여 본래의 향과 가열에 따른 변화를 비교해보기 위하여 SDE법과 SPME법으로 미더덕 향기성분을 분석하였다. SDE 추출법으로 얻어진 미더덕 육에 함유된 주요 성분으로서는 hexanal $371.3\;{\mu}g/g$, 1-tridecanol $80.1\;{\mu}g/g$, (Z)-4,5-dimethyhex02-en-4-ol $72.1\;{\mu}g/g$ 등이 있었고, 그 외 다량의 alcohol, aldehydes 및 acids가 얻어졌다. SDE 추출법으로 얻어진 alcohol은 농도도 높았지만 미더덕 육향기성분의 주체가 되는 것으로 나타났다. SPME 추출법으로 얻어진 미더덕 육에는 9종의 alcohols, 1종의 acid, 1종의 aldehyde, 1종의 hydrocarbon, 1종의 ester, 1종의 amine 및 2종의 ketones이 포함되어 있었다. 이들 중 함량이 가장 높았으며 그 중 1-nonanol, 1-decanol 및 1-tridecanol이 주성분이었다. SPME법으로 얻어진 향기성분 중 1-nonanol $31.6\;{\mu}g/g$, (E)-2-butanoic acid dibutylester $20.3\;{\mu}g/g$ 및 heptadecanoic acid $26.7\;{\mu}g/g$으로 전체 향기성분 추출물의 62.1%를 차지하였다. 따라서 SPME법으로 얻어진 향기성분이 SDE법보다 추출효율은 낮았지만 원래 향에 가까운 것으로 나타났다.

정신장애 관련 검사 및 진단 방안에 관한 연구는 국내 외적으로 활발히 진행되고 있으나 해결을 위한 가장 기본적인 연구인 심리검사에 관한 연구는 다음과 같은 근본적인 문제점들을 내포한다. 기존 심리 검사의 대표적인 문제점으로는 심리상담가의 전문적 훈련정도에 따른 검사 결과의 해석 차이 등을 들 수 있다. 이러한 문제는 객관화된 심리 분석기법의 부재로부터 야기되어 지며 그 결과 동일한 피험자 응답에 대해서도 심리 검사자에 따른 서로 다른 주관적인 분석으로 귀결되어 진다. 심리검사 시 또 다른 문제점은 심리검사의 방법으로 부터 야기되어 진다. 기존의 심리검사는 다양한 의사소통을 통하여 이루어지게 되며, 이러한 문제는 중증장애우, 외국인, 영유아 피험자들의 심리 검사 및 분석을 어렵게 한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이러한 주관적인 심리검사의 문제점을 해결하기 위한 방안으로 Ballken지수법을 활용하여 주관적 심리검사 및 분석 기법중 하나인 TAT(Thematic Apperception Test)를 분석하여 정량화를 시도하며 객관화 하고자 한다. 정량화되어진 분석결과를 BCI(Brain Computer Interface)기반의 TAT환경 하에 수집되어진 사용자의 뇌파 신호와 비교분석하여 정신장애에 따른 뇌파특징벡터 DB의 구축 및 분류를 수행 한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 심리검사 및 진단 시스템은 기 구축된 뇌파특징벡터 DB를 활용하여 기존의 주관적인 심리검사 기법을 정량화 및 객관화하며, 피험자의 간단한 뇌파검사만으로도 심리검사가 가능하여 기존 심리검사의 대표적인 문제점을 해결 가능 할 것으로 판단되어진다.

The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) on the alleviation of lumbar myalgia. This is a randomized, real-sham, double blind pilot study. 38 patients were divided into the PEMF group and the Sham group, each of which was composed of 19 patients (1 patient dropped out in the Sham group) of randomized allocation. The PEMF group was treated by using the PEMF device and the Sham group by using a sham device on the lumbar muscle and acupuncture points, three times a week for a total of two weeks. Evaluations of Visual Analogue Scale for bothersomeness (VASB), Visual Analogue Scale for pain intensity (VASP), Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), 36-Item Short Form Health Survey Instrument (SF-36), EuroQol-5Dimension (EQ-5D), Beck's Depression Inventory (BDI) and Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ), etc. before and 1 week after treatment were carried out. The primary outcome measure was the VASB, measured 1 week after the end of the pulsed electromagnetic therapy. VASB scores for the PEMF group changed by $-2.06{\pm}2.12$ from the baseline, and that for the Sham group changed by $-0.52{\pm}0.82$ (p < 0.05). VASP scores for the PEMF group were reduced by $-2.10{\pm}2.12$ from the base line, and that for the Sham group was reduced by $-0.53{\pm}1.50$ (p < 0.05). PEMF group showed significant improvements in all VASB, VASP, ODI, SF-36, EQ-5D, BDI and RMDQ scores, while the Sham group showed significant improvements in all scores, except the VASP score. However, the VASB, VASP and RMDQ scores of the PEMF group were much lower than those of the Sham group. The two groups showed no significant difference in ODI, SF-36, EQ-5D and BDI. This study demonstrates the effectiveness of PEMF treatment for alleviating lumbar myalgia.

Objective : Although iliac crest autograft is the gold standard for lumbar fusion, the morbidity of donor site leads us to find an alternatives to replace autologous bone graft. Ceramic-based synthetic bone grafts such as hydroxyapatite (HA) and b-tricalcium phosphate (b-TCP) provide scaffolds similar to those of autologous bone, are plentiful and inexpensive, and are not associated with donor morbidity. The present report describes the use of Polybone$^{(R)}$ (Kyungwon Medical, Korea), a beta-tricalcium phosphate, for lumbar posterolateral fusion and assesses clinical and radiological efficacy as a graft material. Methods : This study retrospectively analyzed data from 32 patients (11 men, 21 women) who underwent posterolateral fusion (PLF) using PolyBone$^{(R)}$ from January to August, 2008. Back and leg pain were assessed using a Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), and clinical outcome was assessed using the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI). Serial radiological X-ray follow up were done at 1, 3, 6 12 month. A computed tomography (CT) scan was done in 12 month. Radiological fusion was assessed using simple anterior-posterior (AP) X-rays and computed tomography (CT). The changes of radiodensity of fusion mass showed on the X-ray image were analyzed into 4 stages to assess PLF status. Results : The mean NRS scores for leg pain and back pain decreased over 12 months postoperatively, from 8.0 to 1.0 and from 6.7 to 1.7, respectively. The mean ODI score also decreased from 60.5 to 17.7. X-rays and CT showed that 25 cases had stage IV fusion bridges at 12 months postoperatively (83.3% success). The radiodensity of fusion mass on X-ray AP image significantly changed at 1 and 6 months. Conclusion: The present results indicate that the use of a mixture of local autologous bone and PolyBone$^{(R)}$ results in fusion rates comparable to those using autologous bone and has the advantage of reduced morbidity. In addition, the graft radiodensity ratio significantly changed at postoperative 1 and 6 months, possibly reflecting the inflammatory response and stabilization.

Purpose: Pyrethroid is an insecticide that produces moderate intoxication in mammals, with neither exposure to skin nor inhalation resulting in severe systemic manifestations. In 2005 we made a nationwide survey of agrichemical human intoxication. The object of this study is to analyze pyrethroid intoxications based on the 2005 survey. Methods: We prospectively collected data from 1 August 2005 to 31 July 2006 by a standard investigation protocol. We analyzed demographic data, exposure data (cause, amount, ingredients), clinical features, and courses. Results: A total of 125 cases of pyrethroid intoxication were surveyed. The mean patient age was $56.78{\pm}16.158$ years old, and the mean amount ingested was $121.85{\pm}110.732ml$. Patients were classified into four severity groups according to symptoms and mental status: the asymptomatic group (27 patients, 21.6%), the mild symptom group (48, 38.4%), the moderate symptom group (21, 16.8%), and the severe symptom group (7, 5.6%). There were statistically significant differences in mental status, severity, and mean ICU days between two groups. Admission days by severity grade for the asymptomatic, mild, moderate, and severe symptom groups were $5.49{\pm}16.051,\;3.65{\pm}4.143,\;4.59{\pm}3.335,\;and\;8.14{\pm}7.199days$, respectively (p=0.047). Conclusion: Nationwide surveillance was extremely telling in uncovering a high frequency of agrichemical intoxication in Korea. In pyrethroid intoxication, severity grading can be a useful prognostic tool.
