The purpose of this study was to determine the factors affecting on the home treatment stress in the CP (cerebral palsy) children's mothers. Direct interviews were conducted from March 17 with April 4, 2003 with 97 mothers of CP children. The average level of stress from home treatment felt by mothers with CP children was . Stress-levels were especially high in mothers who were not satisfied with the treatment outcome (p<.05) and whose acceptance of disability was low (p<.01). Stress felt by mothers was low when their health status was high (p<.05). A physical burden was shown to have a significant correlation with the stress of the mothers during the home treatment (p<.01). Mothers with a child of Level 2 disability had lower levels of stress than those with a child of Level 4 or 5 disability (p<.01). The level of stress was higher in mothers who lagged in acquiring technical sufficiency (p<.05). Multiple regression analysis showed that one factor affecting the stress felt by mothers with CP children was the degree of acceptance of the disability (p<.01). Programs that can reduce the stress levels of mothers with CP children through home treatment and secure social systems such as professional help and economic compensation, need to be developed. Active policies should be established and executed for these mothers since stress felt by mothers significantly affects the consistency and effectiveness of treatment provided at home.

This study was conducted to find sensitive indicator of food intake and specific food group related to cognitive function and to analyze the pathway among factors affecting food intake and cognitive function of the aged. 179 people over 50 years old were investigated and all the data were analyzed by SPSS 10.0 package. Food frequency was more sensitive indicator to show the relationship between food intake and cognitive function of the aged than the numbers of standard amount of food eaten. Consumption of grains and starch, meat, fish, eggs and beans were strongly related to cognitive function of the aged and intake of vegetables and fruits also have relationship with it. Moreover, the more frequent eating the carbohydrate and the protein, the higher the cognitive level of the aged. Age, education period, income, blood pressure, duration after retirement, frequency of physical activity and BMI were correlated with food intake and cognitive function of the aged. Among them, age and frequency of physical activity were most strongly correlated with food intake, and education period with cognitive function of them. This investigation shows that more stable intake of carbohydrate and protein containing foods need to be supplied to low income aged and the importance of physical activity of the aged must be emphasized with food intake for better life of the aged.

강화도 남단 갯벌에 도래하는 물새류는 여차리, 동막리, 선두리 및 동검리 갯벌에서 종수 및 개체수에 차이를 나타냈다. 3월과 9월에 조사된 물새류는 다른 지역보다 여차리 갯벌에서 보다 많은 종수 및 개체수가 관찰되었다. 물새류 중에서 우점종은 민물도요(Calidris alpina)로 나타났으며, 다른 지역보다 여차리 갯벌에서 개체수가 42.0~79.1%의 점유율을 보였다. 동막리 갯벌 조간대상부가 해수면에 잠겼을 경우 여차리 갯벌에 남아있는 갯벌 면적은 0.0317 km2로서 여차리 갯벌에서 이들 면적이 휴식공간으로 활용되었다. 각 지역의 갯벌 조간대에 서식하고 있는 물새류의 잠재적 식이물의 습중생물량(wet biomass)은 여차리 갯벌에서 선두 4리 지역보다 2. 5배, 동검리와 동막리 갯벌보다 각각 1.6배와 2배가 높게 나타났다. 종수 및 개체수(/0.078m2)는 여차리 갯벌에서 최대 23종 및 266개체가 출현하여, 선두4리 갯벌의 10종 및 184개체, 동검리 갯벌의 11종 33개체와 동막리 갯벌의 20종 및 69개체가 출현한 것보다 높게 나타났다. 우점종인 민물도요(38.11g)의 하루 최저 취식량은 1,295 마리이고, 먹이는 주로 왕좁쌀무늬고둥(Reticunassa festiva), 서해비단고둥(Umbonium thomasi)등의 고둥류와 두토막눈썹참갯지렁이(Perinereis aibuhitensis)였으며, 고둥류는 다른 지역보다 여차리 갯벌에서 높은 서식밀도를 나타냈다. 갯벌에 도래하는 물새류는 잠재적 식이물인 저서생물의 분포, 휴식공간의 확보, 선호하는 먹이의 분포 및 일일 취식량을 충족시켜 줄 수 있는 먹이가 풍부한 서식지 등과 밀접한 관계를 갖고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이들 물새류의 보호를 위해서는 먹이원이 풍부하게 살아 갈 수 있는 갯벌 환경을 유지해야 한다. 갯벌의 무분별한 개발 및 매립, 방문 및 생물채취 등은 자제되어야 하며, 갯벌 환경교육 지역전문가 및 갯벌 관리프로그램 등이 개발되어야 한다.

The aim of this study was to investigate the factors affecting earth science problem-solving performances of elementary school pre-service teachers. The participants of the study were 81 students attending an elementary school teacher education university. The instruments of the study were paper-and-pencil tests, questionnaires, and interviews. The tests mainly measured the participants' problem solving abilities in the motions of the moon and the planets. Correlation and multiple regression techniques were used for data analysis. The results demonstrated that the pre-service teachers' problem solving abilities were low. Problem-solving performances were affected by the procedural knowledge, the participants' perception of the past earth science performance, self-efficacy, and the prerequisite declarative knowledge. Contrary to our expectation, the spatial visualization ability was not found to be related to the problem-solving performances. Implications of the study are drawn, and suggestions are made for further research.

Distribution of pathogenic vibrios in the seawater of live fish tank and effect of environmental factors an their existence were investigated by collecting samples from fish markets and restaurants in 6 different cities. Pathogenic vibrios and coliforms were determined by using the most probable number (MPN) procedure, and aerobic plate count was enumerated by the standard pour plate method. No Vibrio cholerae O1 was detected in all the samples tested. Detection rates of Y. cholerae non-Ol, V. parahaemolyticus and V. vulnificus in all the samples tested were 7.7%, 69.2% and 23.1%, respectively. Water temperature and turbidity of the seawaber measured were higher in the pathogenic vibrios positive samples than in those negative samples. However, higher salinity and pH were shown in the pathogenic vibrios negative samples than in positive samples. The aerobic plate counts and MPN of total and fecal coliforms in the seawater were higher in the presence of pathogenic vibrios than in the absence of pathogenic vibrios. In this study, the presence of pathogenic vibrios in the seawater tested was closely related with other physiochemical parameters and populations of coliforms, indicators for food safety.

Maternal stress was very common symptom that every pregnant women could have experienced during pregnant period. We found that the causative factors of stress for subjects were physical change(50.8%), family relationship(13.6%), change of body image(7.4%), concern baby(6.8%), economic difficulties(6.4%), depress(4.3%), morning sickness(3%), and miscellaneous(3.5%). According to our study, maternal stress during the first trimester negatively correlated with food and nutrients intake of pregnant women and gave low weight gain during pregnancy and low birth weight of infants. It also significantly correlated with monthly income(p〈0.001) and monthly food cost(p〈0.001) during pregnant period. Mean intake of Calcium and Iron were 47~60% of RDA and 35~48 of RDA, respectively. With the Iron supplement the total intake of Iron exceeded 100% of RDA. We also found majority of food items, except seaweeds, fruits and vegetables, were negatively correlated with maternal stress during three trimesters. Additional support system projected by professionals in health-care field could mediate maternal stress and lead to healthy pregnancy outcome.

The purposes of this study are : (a) to investigate the attitude to various coffee and tea of women, (b) to analyze the characteristics of each classified group according to eating frequency, and (c) to abstract the factors which can influence the consumption of coffee and tea. Questionnaires were hand delivered to 1,200 women residing in Seoul. A total of 1012 was usable: resulting in 84% response rate. Statistical data analysis was completed using SAS Package program for the one way-analysis of variance(ANOVA), Duncan's multiple comparison test, factor analysis and analysis of covariance (ANOCOVA). (a) Instant coffee was most consumed(22.1 times a month), green tea in tea bag(8.7), Donggulre tea(8.3), Coffee (72) in order of frequency. Among Korean traditional tea Donggulre tea(8.3) and Yuja tea (2.0) were most prefered but still a minute quantity of Korean traditional tea was enjoyed. (b) Coffee and Black tea was regarded unhealthful but habitual, delicious and familiar beverage. Green tea was regarded good for health but not so habitual, practical and familiar. The consumer awareness can be grouped into 3 clases : Healthy factor, Habitual Practical factor, Familiar factor. (c) The sociodemographic characteristics of women influenced the beverage consumption. Women in their 30s and 40s consumed much of instant coffee and coffee. 10s and 20s consumed much of canned coffee. Working women drank much of instant coffee and green tea in tea bag. Women in highest income group(≥ 4,000,000 won/month) consumed much of coffee. (d) The factors which influenced the eating frquency of those beverages were various. The eating frequency of instant coffee was influenced by the age, familiar factor and habitual practical factor. And coffee were influenced by income level, habitual practical factor. The frequency of green tea in tea bag was influenced by habitual practical factor and familiar factor, green tea was influenced by healthy factor and habitual practical factor, Donggulre tea was influenced by habitual practical factor.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relation between components of population, maternal health, need for health care, maternal lifestyle and environment from a conceptual model for cerebral palsy, and the occurrence of cerebral palsy with spastic quadriplegic. This study was a case-control design. The subjects consisted of 53 children with quadriplegic cerebral palsy as a case who were receiving treatment after a diagnosis for cerebral palsy at 3 university hospitals and 3 rehabilitation facilities, and 186 children as a control who were visiting well baby clinics and pediatric departments after screening at the same hospitals in Seoul. The data were collected by a structured questionnaire survey from October, 1998 to February, 1999. The odds ratios of risk factor was produced by χ2 and simple logistic analysiss. The unconditional logistic analysis was done by modeling the data, after adjusting for gestational age. Statistically associated with an increase the risks for spastic quadriplegia were asphyxia(OR=221.89, 95% CI 15.8-999.0) and maternal history of admission during the pregnancy (OR=10.55, 95% CI 2.2-50.4). The result suggested that the improvement of obstetric and neonatal care is necessary to prevent cerebral palsy with spastic quadriplegia.

This study was carried out to establish an effective embryo production system by analyzing several factors ifluencing in vivo embryo production in Hanwoo. The results are summarized as follows : 1. The number of total, fertilized and transferble embryos by gonadotropins were no significant difference among PMSG, FSH and FSH+PMSH. 2. The numbers of recovered and transferable embryos by type of FSH were no significant difference in both FSH-P and FOLLTROPIN-V but significant difference with SUPER-OV(p<0.01). 3. The numbers of recovered and transferable embryos by age of donor were highest in 5 years old. 4. The recovered number of transferable embryos was highest in the cows at the 1 st and 3rd parity but significantly lower in hifers and the cows at more than 6th parities(p<0.01). 5. The numbers of trasferable embryos by postparient were more<270 days than > 270 days in significant difference(p<0.01). 6. Embryo production after treatment of repeated super ovulation was no significant difference. 7. Recovered and trasferable embryos production after treatment of repeated super ovulation interval was highest 81∼100 days and significant difference(p<0.01). 8. The numbers of recovered and transferable embryos by seasons were no significant difference.

This review discussed the properties of biological factors affecting the function of phosphorus (P) sink of wetlands, and proposed the applicability of microbes, especially periphyton in phosphorus removal. Microbes have a large potential in natural purification of water, because they have fast growth rates and outcompete macrophytes in taking up P. The degree of P uptake by microbes, especially periphyton appears largely to depend on P and light availability and their biomass. As long as there is sufficient light, periphyton can accrue biomass in the system, assuming losses from herbivory and disturbance are not too great. This large periphyton biomass can reduce P concentrations in the water column via uptake and adsorption, and thereby being able to reduce algal blooms. This idea can be applicable to ameliorate water quality by introducing constructed wetlands and shallow ponds in the incoming region of rivers or lakes. The future studies are required to accumulate data on P cycling between microbes and environmental parameters in wetlands.

The objectives of the study were to establish sperm separation method and duration of insemination for bovine IVF. Oocytes from slaughterhouse ovaries were matured and fertilized using general protocol. After 18 or 42 h of insemination, six to ten embryos were placed into a 30 drop of each medium, and the embryos were examined 7~10d post in semination without medium renewal. First, we compared Percoll gradient will swim-up technique for sperm separation. There was no difference in cleavage rates between them, but the development rates over morula stage of oocytes fertilized with sperm separated by Percoll gradient was significantly higher than that sperm selected by swim-up technique (p<0.05). Second, we evaluated development of bovine embryos derived from the IVF procedure with different durations(18 vs 42 h) of fertilization. There was also no difference in cleavage rates, but the development to blastocyst stage of oocytes exposed in cleavage rates, but the development to blastocyst stage of oocytes exposed to sperm for 42 h was significantly higher than that exposed for 18 h (p<0.05). In conclusion, Percoll gradient can be used for sperm selecton, improving of embryonic development. Also, 42h of IVF may improve the development of bovine embryos.
