Background: Technological developments have led to the creation of a mechanical device capable of providing a representative massage as a passive treatment. The use of mechanical massage offers the distinct advantage of being user-friendly and available for use at any given time. Objectives: To investigated present the outcomes of utilizing a massage bed on the range of motion (ROM) and pressure pain threshold (PPT) in patients diagnosed with chronic low back pain. Design: ABA design of a single case study. Methods: To measure the ROM of the subject's trunk flexion, extension, lateral flexion, and rotation, a tape measure and goniometer were utilized. Furthermore, PPT was measured using an electronic pressure pain meter. Baseline A and Baseline A’ periods were conducted for 5 consecutive days without intervention. Following the baseline periods, a massage bed intervention was administered for 1 hour daily for a total of 10 days during the Intervention B period. Daily assessments were performed, and the Intervention B period was conducted after the intervention. Results: The ROM effect was confirmed in trunk lateral flexion and rotation, while the PPT was effective in both L1, right L2, left L4, and left L5. Conclusion: The results of this study confirmed that the use of a massage bed improved the ROM and PPT in patients suffering from chronic back pain. Further randomized controlled trials involving a larger sample size are necessary to validate these findings.

최근 글로벌 정치․경제 환경의 대전환으로 미국과 유럽 국가들은‘재산업화 전략’으로 제조업 회복을 추진하고 있고, 중국도 ‘중국제조 2025’를 통해 제조업의 질적 발전과 고도화에 집중하고 있다. 이러한 상황에서 본 연구는 외국인직접투자(Inward Foreign Direct Investment, IFDI)가 중국 제조업 고도화에 미치는 영향에 대해 실 증적 분석을 통해 검증해 보고자 하였다. 제조업 가운데 첨단기술 산업의 비중을 중국 제조업 고도화의 지표로 이용하여 2004년부터 2020년까지의 17개년도 중국 31개 성(省)별 패널데이터로 고정효과 모형과 FGLS 모형 을 활용하여 실증분석을 하였다. 분석 결과, 중국 전체와 중국의 동부, 중부, 동북 지역, 장강경제벨트는 IFDI가 중국 제조업 고도화에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났지만, 서부지역에 대해서는 영향을 미치지 않는 것 으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 통해 IFDI가 중국 제조업 고도화에 미치는 영향은 지역별로 다소 차이가 존재 하고 있음을 입증하였다. 분석 결과는 중국 정부의 IFDI를 통한 지역 균형 발전정책이 중부와 동북 지역에 대 해서는 효과적이었음을 알 수 있었던 반면 중국 서부지역에 대해서는 IFDI를 통한 첨단기술 산업 고도화의 정 책 목표와 전략을 수정할 필요가 있음을 시사한다. 한편 통제변수로 활용된 변수인 수출과 수입으로 측정된 개 방정도와 첨단기술에 대한 연구개발 투자는 제조업 고도화에 매우 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 일관되게 나 타나고 있다.

This study is a descriptive research study attempted to identify factors influencing depression of new nurses, focusing on job stress, self-efficacy, resilience, and social support factors of new nurses. The subjects of this study were 174 new nurses with less than one year of nursing experience, who worked at five university hospitals in the metropolitan area. A self-report questionnaire was used for the data collection of this study. The collected data were subjected to stepwise multiple regression to analyze the factors affecting depression using the SAS 9.4 program. As a result of the study, the average score of depression of the subjects was 13.01 out of 80, Factors influencing the subject's depression were identified including job stress(p<.001), self-efficacy(p=.044), resilience(p=.013), social support(p=.012), work department(p=.021), and work type(p=.001). It was found that the higher the job stress of the subject, the higher the degree of depression, while the higher the self-efficacy, resilience, and social support of the subject, the lower the degree of depression. In this study, it was confirmed that job stress, self-efficacy, resilience, and social support were factors influencing the depression of new nurses. In order to prevent depression of new nurses and actively manage with depression, it is suggested that arbitration programs for new nurses will be needed to reduce job stress of new nurses, strengthen self-efficacy, resilience and social support. It is also thought that strategies supporting for new nurses at the organizational level, such as the establishment of various social support systems, are needed

COVID-19로 인한 팬데믹은 21세기 인류가 당면한 가장 큰 고난 중의 하나라고 할 수 있다. 전방위로 모든 산업에 심각한 피해 를 줬으며 특히, 산업현장의 노동자는 COVID-19로 변화된 근로 및 생활환경으로 많은 고통과 어려움을 지금도 겪고 있다. 선원은 팬데믹 이 시작된 후 일찍이 필수업무종사자의 지위를 국제사회로부터 인정받았다. 또한 국제적으로는 해사노동협약을 통해서 이들의 권리 보장 과 국제노동기준의 이행을 통해서 공정한 경쟁체제 확립에 노력하고 있다. 그러나 당사국이 준수해야 할 국제협약상의 의무와 국제기구 의 권고에도 불구하고 해사노동협약상의 선원권리는 침해받고 선원의 안전보건이 더욱 위협받는 상황이 팬데믹 동안 발생하였다. 이 논 문은 COVID-19에 대한 각국의 대응조치가 국제해운업계와 해사노동협약 이행에 끼친 영향분석과 함께 제4차 특별삼자간위원회를 통해서 채택된 2022년 해사노동협약 개정을 회의준비문서와 보고서를 중심으로 분석하였다. 채택된 8개의 해사노동협약 개정문은 선원의 권리와 안전보건에 있어서 향후 긍정적인 영향을 줄 것으로 기대되지만 선원의 최대근로시간, 최대승무기간 및 송환의 문제는 여전히 난제로 남 아 있기 때문에 국제사회의 노력이 지속되어야 할 것이다.

We deduced the proper estimation methodology for the amount of carbon sequestration by damaged trees for Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA). The nine development projects related to renewable energy, damaged trees occur, assessment status and used method of evaluating the carbon storage of damaged trees were summarized. And after re-calculating the carbon storage of damaged trees through allometric equations, the difference between the two groups, re-calculated the damaged trees carbon storage and the damaged trees carbon storage in the report, was validated. As a result, damaged trees carbon storage in words was more than the re-calculated damaged trees carbon storage, and it was statistically significant (p<0.005). This result means that the existing method for calculating damaged tree carbon storage is overcalculated. It was judged that it was necessary to improve the calculation method. Therefore, allometric equations suitable for each dominated-tree species should be used when calculating the damaged tree carbon storage. Furthermore, we propose to establish a carbon storage calculation system based on actual data from the ecosystem so that researchers can efficiently and accurately the damaged trees carbon storage. Key words: damaged vegetation, carbon sequestration, allometric equation, environmental impact

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of ImmunoSEB as an immune-booster additive on the performance of broiler chicks. A total of 1150 broiler chickens were randomly allotted to three treatments on the basis of body weight (10 pens per treatment with 40 broilers in each pen): the control (CON), CON + ImmunoSEB 0.025% in feed (SEB25), and CON + ImmunoSEB 0.050% in feed (SEB50). The experiment was conducted for d 42 in three phases (phase 1, d 0–14; phase 2, d 15–28; and phase 3, d 29–42). There were significant differences in the average daily gain (ADG) and feed intake. The ADG at d 14 in the SEB50 treatment was greater than that in the CON treatment. The overall ADG in the SEB50 treatment was greater than that in the CON treatment. During d 0–14, the feed intake of chickens in the SEB50 treatment increased compared to that in the CON treatment. The crude protein and lysine digestibility improved in the SEB25 and SEB50 treatments compared to those in the CON treatment at d 28. Superoxide dismutase concentration significantly increased in the SEB50 treatment compared to that in the CON treatment. The interleukin-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α concentrations were higher in the cecum of chickens in the CON treatment than in the SEB25 and SEB50 treatments. A lower population of E. coli was detected in the ileum and cecum of broilers fed the SEB50 diet compared to those of broilers fed the CON diet. The overall result showed the beneficial effects of using ImmunoSEB at a dose of 0.050% in broiler chickens.

Recently, the construction of tall buildings utilized by high strength-concrete in the whole world is tending to be on the rise. The application of high-rise structural system in buildings results in the excellent cut-down effect in construction materials due to section reduction. Therefore, in order to investigate the CO2 and resource reduction effect for the high-rise structural system, comparisons of GWP and ADP in embodied energy of structural materlais between 4 type of high-rise structural system have been performed. As a result, GWP emission increased in the order of steel structure outrigger system, RC shear wall system, and RC outrigger system. On the other hand, ADP emissions increased in the order of RC shear wall system, RC outrigger system, and steel structure outrigger system.

PURPOSES : In this study, emissions from asphalt mixture production and construction processes are calculated and used to estimate the emission from each asphalt pavement layer. The calculated emissions for the processes are used as fundamental data to estimate the total emission from the entire life cycle of pavement engineering in South Korea. METHODS : A design proposal and the Korean standard, which provide quantitative information for activities, were used to estimate the amount of construction materials and energy consumption. Subsequently, the LCI DB from NAPA and the LCIA DB from EPA were utilized in conjunction with the estimated quantity to assess the effect of the emissions to determine their environmental impact categories. RESULTS : Calculation results show that 5.84 million ton of CO2eq is discharged from production and construction processes, whereas 3.24 million ton of CO2eq is discharged from operation processes in the pavement engineering sector. The total GHG emission, i.e., 9.08 million ton of CO2eq, is approximately 1.25% of the national GHG emission in 2018. The asphalt mixture production process results in the highest GHG emission in the life cycle of asphalt pavements. CONCLUSIONS : An LCI DB that accounts for the industrial characteristics of South Korea must be established to provide more reliable emission data to be used for national GHG reduction plans, including those for the pavement engineering sector.
