Yongneup wetland protected area, the only high moor in Korea, is a core area to conserve biodiversity. Even though the Yongneup wetland protected area is relatively small, various plant species are distributed in the Yongneup wetland protected area because it includes various habitats showing different environmental gradients. Vascular plants distributed in the Yongneup wetland protected area were identified as a total of 376 taxa that is composed of 73 families, 217 genera, 322 species, 3 subspecies, 44 varieties and 7 forms. For endangered plants designated by the Ministry of Environment, 5 species including Trientalis europaea var. arctica, Lilium dauricum, Halenia corniculata, Lychnis wilfordii and Menyanthes trifoliata were found and 34 taxa were confirmed to be distributed only in the mountainous wetland habitats. Regarding naturalized plants, a total of 11 taxa were distributed, but most of them were distributed in the areas where artificial interference has occurred. And in areas inside the wetlands that are relatively well preserved, 2 species of Bidens frondosa and Erigeron annuus were observed. In this study, the occurrence and distribution of Pseudostellaria baekdusanensis M. Kim, which was recently found in Mt. Baekdu and reported as a new species, were identified in the Yongneup wetland protected area. A wetland is a very vulnerable area to drastic environmental changes and damages to its ecosystem could cause the extinction of rare plant species which are distributed only in the wetlands. Therefore, it is mandatory that current status of the Yongneup wetland protected area is evaluated and actions to prevent rapid environmental changes are taken. Fourteen separate investigations were conducted in 2013 and another four in 2014, to evaluate current status of the Yongneup wetland protected area. These investigations have provided us the basic information for future actions of conservation and restoration.

This study was performed to identify risk factors for depression among the elderly in a rural area. A survey was done for the elderly living in Gosam-myenn, Ansung-kun during the period of July 28, 1997 and July 30, 1997. Demographic and sodoeconornic characteristics, and functional and health Status were assessed using a structured questionnaire, and the level of depression was measured by GDS score. The data obtained were analyzed by frequencies, percentage, t-test, ANOVA, and multiple regression, and the results were as follows: 1. The total sample consisted of 133 elderly. Of them, 47 elderly (35.4%) showed significant depressive Symptoms. 2. The GDS score was the highest for the group over 85 years of age (p < 0.05). Those living alone or widowed showed lower GDS score than those living with someone or married (p < 0.05). 3. The GDS score was the highest in the absolutely dependent group, followed by the partially dependent group, and the independent group (p < 0.01). The elderly who perceived their health Status as excellent showed the lowest GDS score. In contrast, those who had more than five chronic diseases showed the highest GDS score. 4. The elderly receiving financial and emotional support from their family or friends showed lower GDS score compared to those without any support. 5. The economically dependent group showed higher GDS score than that of independent group. 6. The elderly who involved in leisure activities showed lower GDS score than those without any involvement. 7. In terms of risk factors for depression, we found that perceived health Status, subjective economic Status, leisure activities, living arrangement and financial support were inversely associated with GDS score, whereas labor support was positively associated with GDS score. Based upon the above findings, this study suggests that these risk factors for depression in the elderly should be taken into consideration for a comprehensive mental health program for the elderly living in the rural area.

This study was conducted to examine ear, nose, and throat diseases of community residents and related factors in Korea. 475 people who were experienced in suffering from the ear, nose, and throat diseases were chosen as the subjects of this study. Data were collected in Daegu, Kimchon, Andong, Pohang, Kyungsan from February 1, 2000 to May 30, 2000. The results of this study are summarized as follows. 1. Among ear, nose, and throat diseases, the incidence of throat diseases was highest (42.3%). The incidence rate of nose diseases was 31.9%, while that of ear diseases was 25.7%. The incidence of these diseases were significantly related to the variables of sex, age, occupation, religion, education level, smoking, and drinking. 2. When the respondents were afflicted with ear diseases, 47.7% of them was treated in ear, nose, and throat hospitals or clinics, while 29.4% of them was treated in general hospitals or clinics. 13.2% of them just endured without receiving treatment. 5.7% of them was treated in their homes and 3.9% of them was treated in pharmacies. 3. 28.9% of the respondents was treated for their ear diseases during two weeks; 24.2% 'during one week'; 20.5% 'during three to four days'; 12.6% 'during one to two days'; 9.0% 'during one to two days'; 4.8% 'during over six months'. The period of treatment was significantly related to the variables of sex, age, occupation, marital status, religion, smoking, drinking, and exercise. 4. When the respondents took nose diseases, 27.4% of them was treated in ear, nose, and throat hospitals or clinics, while 24.7% of them was treated in general hospitals or clinics. 18.6% of them just endured without receiving treatment. 17.7% of them was treated in pharmacies and 5.9% of them was treated in their homes. 5. 27.0% of the respondents was treated for their ear diseases during three and four days; 23.6% 'during on week'; 17.3% 'during two weeks'; 13.5% 'during one to two weeks'; 10.0% 'during one to two months'; 8.6% 'during over six months'. The period of treatment was significantly related to the variables of sex, ccupation, religion, education level, smoking, drinking, and exercise. 6. The throat diseases were caused by cold (30.2%), tonsils (29.3%), and bronchitis (15.7%). When the respondents took throat diseases, 26.1% of them was treated in ear, nose, and throat hospitals or clinics, while 25.3% of them was treated in general hospitals. 20.2% of them was treated in pharmacies and 12.4% of them just endured without receiving treatment. 10.3% of them received reatment in clinics, while 5.6% of them was treated in their homes. 7. The level of satisfaction with treatment for ear diseases was 3.58±1.12 points on the basis of 5 points, while that for throat diseases was 3.19±0.085 points. In case of information sources on ear, nose, and throat diseases, 31.8% of the respondents obtained the information from doctors, while 21.4% of them got it from TV or Radio. 15.9% of them obtained it from family members, neighbors, or friends and 10.0% of them obtained it from magazines, newspapers or pamphlet. Only 7.0% of them got it from pharmacists. 8. 67.2% of the respondents thought that mass media dealt with the ear, nose, and throat diseases lightly. 40.6% of them replied that education and publicity of those diseases would be necessary, while 10.7% of them replied those would not be necessary. Among the ear, nose, and throat diseases, the incidence rate of throat diseases was highest (42.3%). The ear diseases showed the highest level of satisfaction with treatment, while the throat diseases displayed the lowest level of satisfaction with treatment. Although the diseases are very serious in Korea, they are dealt with lightly in terms of education and publicity through using mass media. Therefore, the government, otorhinolaryngologists, and related associations must make great efforts to prevent the diseases.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the fluoride releasing behavior of one self-curing glass-ionomer (Fuji II), one light-curing glass-ionomer (Fuji II LC), three compomers (PrismaFlow, UniFil F, and Dyract AP) and SIX composite resins (Flowline, Fissurit FX, Flow-It, Wave, Heliomolar Flow, and Glacier) as a function of light intensity. Disk type specimens were stored in deionized water at 37℃ for 1, 2, 4, 8 hrs and 1, 2, 7, 14, 21, 28 days. The deionized water was changed after measurements. The amount of fluoride ion, which was released from specimens, was measured by pH/ISE Meter (Istek Model 730P, Korea) with fluoride electrode. The results were statistically compared by Tukey multiple comparisons test (p=0.05). There were significant differences in degree of polymerization between specimens with 1 hr after irradiation and those with 24 hrs after irradiation (p<0.05). The cumulative amount of fluoride released was decreased with increasing light intensity (or degree of polymerization). The fluoride-releasing patterns of specimens were significantly different (p<0.05).

This study was designed to survey the knowledge and attitude towards the noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) of the workers with hearing impairment who are working at the noisy workplaces. The subjects were 423 workers selected from noisy workplaces, where the noise level was 85dB and over, and whose hearing impairment was 30dB and over at 1,000 Hz or 40 dB and over at 4,000 Hz in the primary screening auditory test. For this study, a questionnaire was applied to the study subjects studying their knowledge and attitude towards the noise-induced hearing loss including their personal characteristics. Only 379 workers completed the questionnaires sincerely except 18 workers who did not show hearing impairment, and they were divided into three groups according to their status of hearing impairment: noise-induced hearing loss (D₁), suspected hearing loss (C), hearing loss with medical reasons (D₂), for their comparison of their knowledge and attitude towards the noise-induced hearing loss. The workers who took auditory test at employment were 47.8% and who took auditory test last year after employment were 76.8%. The workers who put on protection device after the test in 77.1%. The workers did not know the fact that they would work at the noisy workplace in 31.9%. The disturbance of daily communication is significantly different symtom among 3 groups (p<0.01). The workers answered that noise did not affect the body adversely in 4.7% and NIHL was not problem if it did not disturb daily life in 31.9%. In case they were diagnosed as NIHL, 68.6% of the subjects answered that they would put on protection devices throughly and 20.8% answered that they would ask for medical care. And 39.3% of them answered that they would want to stay at their present workplaces even though they were ordered to change their workplaces to the another less noisy workplaces. The protection of right answer in the article related NIHL was 61.2% in average. For the protection of NIHL, an effective hearing conservation program should be developed and provided to the labor working in the noisy workplace.

최영규,김용우,김현철 서울保健大學 1997 論文集 Vol.17 No.1

Recently according to the individualization and differentiation in consumers` lifestyles, there are many changes in the distribution types of products. Especially owing to the increase of women in the work force, the single population and the night active population, in the past few years the rapidly growing convenience stores are becoming fixture in our society as a popularized retailer. Accordingly, going beyond the primary role of preserving contents and protecting quality, package design at a convenience store, on the premise of it being self-service, serve as a means of sales promotion strategy, to induce the purchase by communicating information and favorable image to the consumer. Developing package design with consideration to these special features of a convenience store must be improved by satisfying the following points: · to produce positive corporate image by developing private brands for a differentiation strategy. · to induce impulse buying owing to direct advertising by developing package designs which considers P.D.P. functions. · to stimulate the consumers` desire to purchase and to revitalize the store atmosphere by package design which maximizes effects of the displays. · to produce brand logotypes that has outstanding communicative properties and that can be long remembered. · to develop a color strategy which suggests a product's features, can touch the consumer's sensibility, and can minimize stress to the eyes. · to produce a systematic layout which leads to visual order of detail design elements.
