In this study, we developed the drowziness prevention system to detect the driver's drowziness and relieve the driver. A computer vision method was proposed to detect the driver's drowziness. We extracted the eyes and mouth in the face image and tracked the positions from the image sequencies in real time. The eye blink duration and yawning was used as the parameters of drowziness. Wehn the drowziness state of a driver is detected, the driver is refreshed by the scent generator and the alarm. Also, the driver's bio-signal is acquired and analysed the vigilance state.

Objectives: Dislocation of the temporomandibular joint may occur for various reasons. Although different invasive methods have been advocated for its treatment, this study highlights the value of non-invasive treatment options even in chronic cases in a resource-poor environment. Materials and Methods: A seven-year retrospective analysis of all patients managed for temporomandibular joint dislocation in our department was undertaken. Patient demographics, risk factors associated with temporomandibular joint dislocation and treatment modalities were retrieved from patient records. Results: In all, 26 patients were managed over a seven-year period. Males accounted for 62% of the patients, and yawning was the most frequent etiological factor. Conservative treatment methods were used successfully in 86.4% of the patients managed. Two (66.7%) of the three patients who needed surgical treatment developed complications, while only one (5.3%) patient who was managed conservatively developed complications. Conclusion: Temporomandibular joint dislocation appears to be associated with male sex, middle age, yawning, and low socio-economic status, although these observed relationships were not statistically significant. Non-invasive methods remain an effective treatment option in this environment in view of the low socio-economic status of the patients affected.

The purpose of this study is to identify the cause of driver's drowsiness and to get information about driver's drowsiness from facial image using computer vision. We measured the driver's movements of a head and shoulders in the highway arid street. We also measured the eye blink duration and yawning duration of normal and drowsy drivers. from the results, we confirmed that the measurement of eye blink and yawning might be a way of drowsy detection.

Driving is a complex vigilance task that includes improper lookout, excessive speed and inattention. The primary objective of this research is to detect driver drowsiness so that the driver can be alerted to an impending traffic accident in performance. We developed the automatic detection and warning system during drowsy driving. A drowsiness detection system must be able to monitor driver status and detect the detrimental changes of a driver performance. Eyeblink has been found to be a reliable factor of drowsiness detection in earlier studies. As an additional parameter, we also considered the yawning which often occurs in a low vigilance state and predicts the drowsy state. We used a computer vision method to extract the eyeblink and yawning in the face image sequences. When the drowsy state was detected, the driver was refreshed by alarming device and menthol scent generator after deciding the warning level by fuzzy logic. For the evaluation of our system, we measured the physiological parameters such as EOG and EEG. The results indicated that it is possible to detect and alert the driver drowsiness temporarily or continuously by using our system.

We studied the problem of driver's low vigilance state which is related to the one reason of traffic accidents. In this paper, we developed the drowsiness warning system for a drowsy driver. To extract the eyes and mouth from the driver's facial image in real time, a computer vision method was used. The eye blink duration and yawning were used as measurement parameters of drowsiness detection. When the drowsy state of a driver was detected, the driver was refreshed by the scent generator and the alarm. Also, the driver's bio-signal was acquired and analyzed to measure the vigilance state.

Attending the operation room is an essential part of surgical clerkships. Syncope or presyncopal attacks in the operation room may negatively affect students' learning and career development. This study set out to identify the prevalence of syncope and presyncopal attacks in the operation room during medical students' surgical clerkships. Data from 420 medical students (303 men and 117 women) in their 3rd year of clerkship were collected between 2014 and 2017. An anonymous questionnaire was distributed to assess the prevalence and degree of syncope and presyncopal symptoms. A total of 27% of the respondents had experienced syncope or presyncopal symptoms, 49.6% of the female students and 18.8% of the male students (p<0.001). Fifty students (43.5%) had been attending as observers at the time of the syncopal attack, while 65 students (56.5%) had been participating as assistants. Thirty-four students (29.6%) had recently eaten at the time of the syncopal attack, while 81 students (70.4%) had not recently eaten. Prodromal symptoms included the urge to sit down (21.2%), sweating (19.3%), nausea (16.9%), a feeling of warmth (13.3%), darkened vision (12.6%), yawning (11.7%), palpitation (11.0%), ear fullness (10.2%), black spots in one's vision (7.6%), and hyperventilation (7.1%). This study showed the prevalence of syncope and presyncopal symptoms in the operation room during surgical clerkships. For students' safety and effective clerkship learning, thorough proactive education on syncopal attacks is required.

In order to investigate the complaint rates of subjective fatigue symptoms and study the relationship between them and body type, health awareness in middle school students, we carried out a survey of 1,209 students (654 boy students and 555 girl students) at a middle school in Taejon City by a self-recorded questionnaire. The survey was conducted in June, 1997. The results obtained were as follows: 1. Among complaints of fatigue, "feel like lying down" was the highest, followed by "feel anxious about things", "feel drowsy", "yawning a lot", "eye strain" and "whole body feels tired" in descending order. 2. In the average weighted score of fatigue complaint, dullness and sleepiness (I) was the highest, followed by a difficulty in concentration (II) and bodily projection of fatigue (III) in descending order. Fatigue seems to create mental stress rather than physical burdens. 3. In the classification of body type based on the $R\ddot{o}hrer$ index, the obesity type (145 and above) was 11.0%, standard type (110~144) was 64.7% and leptosomic type (l09 and below) was 24.3%. Comparison between both sexes revealed that the rate of obesity and leptosomic types were significantly higher in boy students than in girl students. 4. In terms body type awareness, the statistics are the following: those who consider themselves to be standard type, 44.3%, slightly obese 24.5%, leptosomic, 23.5% and obese 7.8%. However, the level of obesity awareness was significantly higher in girl students than in boy students. 5. As for health awareness, 36.5% considered themselves healthy, 5.4% generally healthy and 10.1% a little unhealthy, but the level of unhealthy awareness was higher in girl students than in boy students. 6. In the relationship between body type and health awareness, most students thought that they were obese in spite of their standard body type. Also, many students who were obese and leptosomic tended to consider themselves to be a little unhealthy. 7. The more the students were obese or felt unhealthy, the more the average weighted score of fatigue complaints was high.

Objectives : Koreans consume excessive amounts of sodium due to their traditional diet based on rice, soup, and kimchi. The purpose of this study was to find out the relationship between salty taste preference and physical symptoms. Methods : A survey was conducted on 252 patients visiting L/C oriental medical clinic. Taste preferences were investigated, and the overall physical condition, as well as general lifestyle habits, of people who enjoy salty tastes were checked. We selected symptoms that were significantly more common in people who enjoy salty foods. Results : People who enjoyed salty foods tended to smoke and drink alcohol, and had many thermal symptoms such as dry mouth and prefer to drink cold water. And there was a tendency for cardiovascular diseases such as chest pain, chest congestion, purpura, gastrointestinal diseases such as abdominal pain, bowel sound, constipation·diarrhea, nausea·vomiting, and urogenital diseases such as enuresis, naengdaeha, and menstrual pain, and symptoms such as food urticaria and yawning were significant. There were a lot of them. Conclusion : To quit drinking and smoking, it is good to avoid eating salty foods, and to prevent cardiovascular diseases, gastrointestinal diseases, and urogenital diseases, it is also good to avoid excessive sodium intake. It is believed that one can maintain a healthy lifestyle only by eating an appropriate combination of the five flavors.

그에게 쏟아진 거의 만장일치에 가까운 찬사에도 불구하고, 연상호의 애니메이션 작품세계에 대한 본격적인 논의는 아직 제대로 된 형태를 갖추지 못하고 있다. 산발적인 몇몇 리뷰들을 제외하면 진지한 접근의 시도를 찾아보기 힘든 상황인 것이다. 이 깊은 골을 메우려는 시도로서 본 논문은 그의 작품들이 의미 있는 전체(oeuvre)로 간주되어야 한다고 주장한다. 그의 두 장편 애니메이션인 <돼지의 왕>과 <사이비>에 집중하되, 그들이 그의 단편 작품들과 맺는 미묘한 관계들에도 주목하면서, 나는 그의 작품이 현대 한국사회와의 관계 속에서 얼마나 '급진적'인지, 혹은- radical이라는 말의 어원 그대로 '뿌리'에 닿는다는 의미에서- '근원적'인 지를 보여줄 것이다. 두 작품 간의 연속성을 우회하거나 제대로 논의하지 않는 일반적인 독해들과 달리, 나는 그 둘이 주목할 만한 차이들에도 불구하고 공명하는 독특한 방식에 주목하려 한다. 단도직입적으로 말해 서사의 중심에서 그의 작품들은 '연대(solidarity)'의 문제, 보다 정확하게 말해 '비참한 이들(abjected people) 간의 연대의 결핍/과잉'이라는 문제를 중심으로 회전한다. 나아가, 어쩌면 더욱 중요하게도, 나는 어쩌면 그저 주제적 차원이라 할 수 있을 이러한 문제들이 그의 애니메이션 작품들 속에서, 내가 '바닥없는 표면/표면의 심연(abyssal surface)'이라 이름붙인 형식적 차원으로 표면화되고 있는 지를 드러낼 것이다. 서사는 훌륭하나 '애니메이션' 작품으로서의 정체성을 인정하기는 어렵다는 식의, 상찬을 가장한 비난- 혹은 오독-과 달리, 나는 연상호의 작품들이 '비참한 이들' 간에 드러나는 신뢰의 결핍/과잉을 애니메이션으로서, 즉 그 뒤에 서로에 대한 '바닥없는 불신/신뢰'가 숨어있는 불길하고 피상적인 표면을 육화한다고 주장할 것이다. 연상호의 애니메이션은 정확하게 이런 중의적인 의미에서, 즉 주제적인 차원에서의 사회의 뿌리와 표현 양식 차원에서의 애니메이션의 근본을 건드린다는 이중적인 의미에서 근본적(radical)이다.
