Objectives : To investigate the therapeutic compliance and its related factors in lung cancer patients. Methods : The subjects of this study comprised 277 patients first diagnosed with lung cancer at Kyungpook National University Hospital between Jan 1999 and Sept 1999. Of these, 141(50.9%) participated in the study by properly replying to structured questionnaires. The data was analyzed using a simplified Health Decision Model. This model includes categories of variables covering therapeutic compliance, health beliefs, patient preferences, knowledge and experience, social interaction, sociodemographic and clinical characteristics. Results : The therapeutic compliance rate of the 141 study subjects was 78.0%. An analysis of health beliefs and patient preferences revealed health concern (p<0.05), dependency on medicine (p<0.05), perceived susceptibility and severity (p<0.05) as well as preferred treatment (p<0.01) as factors related to therapeutic compliance. Factors from the sociodemographic characteristics and clinical factors that were related to therapeutic compliance were age (p<0.01), monthly income (p<0.05), histological type (p<0.05) and clinical stage (p<0.05) of cancer. Conclusions : In order to improve therapeutic compliance in lung cancer patients it is necessary to educate the aged, low-income patients, or patients who have small cell lung cancer or lune cancer of an advanced stage for which surgery is not indicated. Additionally, it is essential for medical personnel to have a deep concern about patients who have poor lifestyles, a low dependency on medicine, or a high perceived susceptibility and severity. Practically, early diagnosis of lung cancer and thoughtful considerations of low-income patients are important. By means of population-based education in a community, we may promote attention to health and enhance the early diagnosis of lung cancer.

강영한(Yeong-Han Kang),감신(Shin Kam) 대한방사선과학회(구 대한방사선기술학회) 2008 방사선기술과학 Vol.31 No.3

  연구목적 : 성인 남, 여를 대상으로 골밀도의 감소에 따른 대사증후군과의 관련성을 알아보고, 골다공증과 대사증후군의 관계에서 생활습관과 식습관 등의 대사증후군 위험요인들을 통제한 상태에서도 독립적으로 작용하는 지에 대해 알아보기 위해 수행되었다.<BR>  연구방법 : 건강검진 수진자 총 1204명(남자 364명, 여자 840)을 대상으로 단면연구를 시행하였다. 이중에너지 X선흡수계측법을 이용하여 골밀도를 측정하였고, 골감소증과 골다공증을 골량감소군으로 분류하여 정상군과 비교하였다. 골밀도와 대사증후군과의 연관성은 로지스틱 회귀분석을 이용하였고, 연령과 체중, 음주, 흡연, 규칙적인 운동, 규칙적인 식사, 폐경여부 등을 조사하여 통제변수로 이용하였다. 골밀도가 감소함에 따라 대사증후군 유병률에 대한 교차비를 남녀 성별로 구분하여 계산하였다.<BR>  연구결과 : 정상군과 골량감소군에서 대사증후군의 유병률은 남자의 경우 전체 364명 중 100명(27.5%)이 대사증후군의 기준을 만족하였고, 정상군과 골량감소군의 유병률은 각각 36.2%, 16.2%였으며, 여자의 경우 전체 840명 중 137명(16.3%)이 대사증후군에 해당하였고, 정상군과 골량감소군의 유병률은 각각 15.5%, 17.2%였다. 잠재적인 통제변수를 보정한 후의 대사증후군 유병률은 남자에서 골밀도 감소와 유의한 관련이 있었다(p < 0.001). 남자 골밀도가 정상인 군의 교차비를 1.00으로 볼 때 골량감소군의 교차비는 3.07(95% CI =1.83-5.16)로 골량감소군에서 대사증후군이 3.07배 증가하였다. 대사증후군의 5가지 기준들의 유병률과 골량감소와의 관련성을 살펴볼 때, 남자의 경우 높은 체질량지수와 낮은 HDL은 골량감소군에서 유의하게 낮게 나타났고, 여자에서는 높은 체질량지수에서만 골량감소군이 유의하게 낮게 나타났다(p < 0.05). 또한 대사증후군 구성요소의 수가 증가할수록 골밀도의 평균은 남녀 모두에서 유의한 차이가 없었다.<BR>  결론 : 남자는 골밀도 감소군에서 대사증후군에 대한 교차비가 증가하였고, 여자에서는 유의한 차이가 없었다. 즉, 골밀도가 연령에 비해 경미하게 감소하더라도 대사증후군과 동반될 위험이 있고, 예방적 차원에서 골다공증과 대사증후군을 함께 고려하여 생활습관 및 식생활 개선이 요구된다. 향후 다양한 인구집단을 대상으로 하는 연구와 골밀도의 감소요인과 대사증후군을 비롯한 인슐린 저항성, 심혈관계 질환 등의 질병과의 관련성을 파악하고자 하는 연구도 추가적으로 필요할 것으로 사료된다.   Objective : The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between bone mineral density (BMD) and the metabolic syndrome.<BR>  Method : We conducted a cross-sectional study of 1204 adults(males: 364 females: 840) in a general hospital health promotion center. They were grouped into the normal and lower BMD group according to bone loss(osteopenia, osteoporosis), as determined by duel energy X-ray absorptiometery(DEXA). We analyzed the association between BMD and metabolic syndrome by multiple logistic regression analysis. After adjustment for age, weight, alcohol intake, smoking, regular exercise, regular intake of meals, and menopausal status, odds ratios for the prevalence of the metabolic syndrome by gender were calculated for lower BMD.<BR>  Results : After adjustment for the effect of potential covariates, the prevalence of metabolic syndrome was associated with bone loss in men(p<0.001). If the odds ratio of normal group is 1.00, then that of the lower BMD group is 3.07(95% CI = 1.83-5.16). The prevalence of metabolic alterations fitting the criteria of metabolic syndrome was significantly decreased in High BMI, Low HDL in men and in High BMI in women(p<0.05).<BR>  Conclusions : This study shows that BMD was associated with metabolic syndrome. Further studies needed to obtain evidence concerning the association between BMD and metabolic syndrome.

급성 비특이성 장간막 림프절염의 임상 소견과 급성 충수돌기염과의 감별 인자

Purpose: Although acute nonspecific mesenteric lymphadenitis (ANML) is probably common cause of abdominal pain in children, which can be severe enough to be an abdominal emergency, the clinical features of mesenteric lymphadenitis are not clear. Also, a differential diagnosis with acute appendicitis (APPE) is indispensable to avoid serious complications. The clinical features of ANML were determined, and the risk factors for differential diagnosis with APPE were analyzed. Methods: Between November 2000 and May 2001, data from 26 patients (aged 1 to 11 years) with ANML and 21 patients (aged 2 to 13 years) with APPE were reviewed. ANML was defined as a cluster of five or more lymph nodes measuring 10 mm or greater in their longitudinal diameter in the right lower quadrant (RLQ) without an identifiable specific inflammatory process on the ultrasonographic examination. There were risk factors on patient's history, physical examination, and laboratory examination; the location of abdominal pain, abdominal rigidity, rebound tenderness, fever, nocturnal pain, the vomiting intensity, the diarrhea intensity, the symptom duration, and the peripheral blood leukocytes count. Results: Of the 26 ANML patients and 21 APPE patients, abdominal pain was noted on periumbilical (76.9% vs 14.2%), on RLQ (11.5% vs 71.4%), with abdomen rigidity (7.6% vs 80.9%), with rebound tenderness (0.0% vs 76.1%)(p<0.05), in the lower abdomen (11.5% vs 14.2%), and at night (80.8% vs 100.0%) (p>0.05). The clinical symptoms were vomiting (38.4% vs 90.4%), the vomiting intensity ($1.5{\pm}0.7$ [1~3]/day vs $4.5{\pm}2.9$ [1~10]/day), diarrhea (65.3% vs 28.5%) (p<0.05), and fever (61.5% vs 76.2%)(p>0.05). The period to the subsidence of abdominal pain in the ANMA patients was $2.5{\pm}0.5$ (2~3) days. The laboratory data showed a significant difference in the peripheral blood leukocytes count ($8,403{\pm}1,737[5,900{\sim}12,300]/mm^3\;vs\;15,471{\pm}3,749[5,400{\sim}20,800]/mm^3$)(p<0.05). Discriminant analysis between ANML and APPE showed that the independent discriminant factors were a vomiting intensity and the peripheral blood leukocytes count and the discriminant power was 95.7%. Conclusion: The clinical characteristics of ANML were abrupt onset of periumbilical pain without rigidity or rebound tenderness, a mild vomiting intensity, normal peripheral leukocytes count, and relatively short clinical course. If the abdominal pain persist for more than 3 days, and/or the vomiting intensity is more than 3 times/day, and/or the peripheral leukocytes count is over $13,500/mm^3$, abdominal ultrasonography is recommended to rule out APPE. 목 적: 급성 비특이성 장간막 림프절염(acute nonspecific mesenteric lymphadenitis, ANML)은 타 질환이 적절히 배제되었을 때 임상적 추정으로 진단하는 경우가 많아 그 실체에 대하여는 잘 알려져 있지 않다. 특히 급성 충수 돌기염(acute appendicitis, APPE)과의 감별에 혼란을 주어 복막염 등으로 이행되는 경우가 드물지 않다. ANML의 임상 소견을 보고하고, 특히 APPE와의 감별시 도움을 줄 수 있는 접근 방식을 연구하고자 한다. 방 법: 2000년 11월부터 2001년 5월까지 대구시 한영한마음연합소아과의원으로 급성 복통을 주소로 내원하여 ANML로 진단된 26명(남녀비 13:13)을, APPE 환자는 같은 기간 대구가톨릭대학병원을 방문하여 수술받은 21명(남녀비 12:9)을 대상으로 하였다. ANML 환자들은 복부 초음파 검사상 10 mm 이상, 5개 이상의 장간막 림프절이 관찰되면서 회장, 대장의 장벽 비후 소견이 5 mm를 넘지 않고 염증성 충수돌기가 관찰되지 않으며, 말초 혈액 검사, 소변 검사, 대변 검사상 타 질환을 의심할 소견이 없는 등을 진단기준으로 설정하였다. 결 과: 1) ANML군의 진단 당시 연령은 1~11세, $5.2{\pm}2.3$세였다. 2) ANML군의 복통 양상은 21례(80%)에서 야간 복통이 있었고, 위치는 배꼽 주위부 20례(76%), 우하복부 3례(11%), 하복부 3례(11%)였다. 2례(7%)에서 복부 강직이 있었고, 반발 압통은 전례에서 없었다. APPE군에서는 전례에서 야간 복통이 있었고, 17례(80%)에서 복부 강직이, 16례(76%)에서 반발 압통이 관찰되어 ANML군과 각각 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<0.05). 3) ANML군에서 복통의 회복까지 걸린 시간은 2~4일, $2.5{\pm}0.5$일이었다. 4) ANML군 10례(38%)에서 구토를 보였고 1~3회/일, $1.5{\pm}0.7$회/일이었다. 설사는 17례(65%)에서 있었고 1~4회/일, $1.6{\pm}0.8$회였다. APPE군 19례(90%)에서 구토가 있었으며 1~10회/일, $4.5{\pm}2.9$회로 ANML군과 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<0.05). APPE군의 설사는 6례(28%)에서 있었으며 1~5회/일, $2.1{\pm}1.6$회이었다. 5) ANML군에서 열은 19례(73%)에서 있었고, 말초혈액 백혈구 수는 $5,900{\sim}12,300/mm^3$이었으며 평균 $8,403{\pm}1,737/mm^3$이었다. APPE군에서는 열은 16례(76%)에서 관찰되었으며 백혈구 수는 $5,400{\sim}20,800/mm^3$으로 평균 $15,471{\pm}3,749/mm^3$이었으며 ANML군과는 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<0.05). 6) 판별분석을 이용하여 하루 구토의 강도와 백혈구 수를 독립변수로 하였을 때 ANML과 APPE는 95.7% 수준으로 분류되었다. 결 론: ANML과 APPE의 감별 시 복부강직, 반동압통 등 급성복증의 소견이 의심될 때 뿐만 아니라, 복통이 3일을 초과하여 지속되거나, 하루 구토가 3회를 초과하는 경우, 말초혈액검사상 백혈구 수가 $13,500/mm^3$ 이상을 보일 때에도 반드시 복부초음파 검사를 이용하여 APPE를 확인하여야 한다.

의과대학 본과 4학년 학생들의 사망진단서의 작성 능력을 살펴보고자, 2007년 5월부터 8월까지 충청도, 전라도, 경상도의 4개 의과대학 본과 4학년 학생 380명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 설문지는 사망진단서 작성을 위한 10개의 사례들과 사망진단서 작성 양식, 그리고 사망진단서 작성과 관련된 교육 경험에 관한 문항들로 구성되었다. 교육 유형별 사망진단서 작성 정확도를 평가하기 위해 학생들이 기술한 사인들이 기준사인과 일치되는 정도와 기재내용의 오류 등을 파악하였다. 설문 미응답자 61명을 제외한 232명의 분석결과는 다음과 같다. 10개 사례에 대한 4단계 사망원인 평균 일치개수 즉 CD는 9.6±3.8이었다. 4단계 사망원인들 중 최하단에 기재한 원사인의 평균 일치 개수 즉 UC1은 4.8±1.7이었고, 학생들이 기술한 4단계 사망원인들 중에서 사인분류사에 의해 선정된 원사인의 평균 일치 개수 즉 UC2는 5.6±1.5이었다. UC1과 UC2는 사례중심 교육집단이 이론교육집단 보다 높았다. 주오류의 세부 내용별로 살펴보면 ‘선행사인 미기입’의 오류를 가진 경우(78.9%)가 가장 많았으며, 다음으로 ‘한 칸에 두개 사인 기입’(48.3%), ‘Ⅱ부에 Ⅰ부 기입‘(43.1%)등의 오류를 범하는 경우 등이 많았다. 주오류와 부오류 모두 사례중심교육집단이 이론교육집단보다 평균 오류의 수가 더 적었다. Objectives: The purpose of this research was to evaluate the ability of completing death certificates among medical students. Methods: The self-administered questionnaires were completed, during May to August 2007, by 380 medical students in senior. The questionnaire was composed of 10 cases to write the death certificate. The cause-of-deaths written by students were compared with the gold standards and their errors in the certificates also evaluated. Results: Mean agreement score for 10 underlying cause-of-deaths completed on the lowest line of part I in the death certificate (UC1) was 4.8±1.7, and for underlying cause-of-death selected by a coder of the death certificates (UC2) was 5.6±1.5. The UC1 and UC2 were significantly higher among the students having the case-oriented education for death certificate than others. For the major errors in the certificates completed by students, the students having the error with no antecedent cause were highest, the error with two or more conditions secondly highest. Mean number of errors was significantly lower in the case-oriented education group than others. Conclusions: Errors are common in the death certificates completed by medical students in senior. The accuracy of death certification may be more improved with the case-oriented education than the traditional method.

신점순,박재용,감신,주리 한국병원경영학회 1997 병원경영학회지 Vol.2 No.1

This study was carried out to find out the effect of conflict between profession groups within medical institution. For the purpose, the questionnaire-based research was done with 605 persons consisting of specialists, residents, nurses, radiologic technicians, clinicopatholigic technicians, health record administrator, administrative employees who are working in a university hospital located in Taegu City from February 15, 1997 to March 2, 1997. The results of the study were summarized as follows. The subject profession group against which each profession group feels the most conflict in interprofession mutual recognition relation was found out as follows : Specialists(34%) against colleague specialists, residents(54.0%) against nurses, nurses(54.8%) against residents, radiologic technicians(44.0%) against residents, and clinicopatholigic technicians(34.5%) against nurses, while it was shown that health record administrator felt even conflict against residents, nurses and administrative employees and administrative employees(48.1) did against nurses. Most employee group answered that medical specialists have a one-sided and individual attitude toward all affairs, while both medical specialists and administrative employees of hospital answered that nurses are one-sided. It was shown among such group that radiologic technicians' conflict results from their thinking which mutual dependence and cooperation are lowest while individual difference is highest, clinicopatholigic technicians' conflict from the problem in mutual communication, medial specialists' conflict from difference in goals greater than other group, respectively lower than other group. The rate of vertical conflict between groups was highest for the health record administrators and then for the radiological technicians, while it was lowest for the medical specialists and then for the nurses. In addition, the rate of horizontal conflict was high for both medical specialists and nurses, but it was low for the health record administrations and clinicopathological technicians. The group with the highest job satisfaction was the medical specialists and nursed, and the group with the highest involvement in organization was the medical specialists and administrative employees. Also it was shown that both medical specialists and clinicopathological technicians show a favorable attitude toward patients. Factors having an effect on the vertical conflict included difference in goals, cooperation within group and leadership. It was shown among those factors, however, that only the leadership has an effect on all the groups evenly. The horizontal conflict was influenced by such factors as educational level, mutual dependence, difference in goals, cooperation within group, and individual difference, when an important factor was the difference in goals for all the groups. Their attitude toward patients was influenced by the vertical conflict and age, but the vertical conflict was the most significant factor for the medical specialists. In conclusion, it is required to control properly the conflict between employees as well as between profession group and to execute good leadership, so as to improve patients' satisfaction which is the key goal of hospital.
