This study was performed to develop a Kdiet-index based on the definitions and characteristics of traditional Korean food. The Korean Food Pattern Index (Kdiet-index) for diseases was applied using dietary data from the 2017 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) and the association between Kdiet-index and metabolic disease was confirmed. The study subjects were 1,971 Korean adults aged >40, and the components were classified according to 14 criteria used to establish the Kdiet-index. Main ingredients up to the top 3 were designated using dish names, ingredients, and contents using KNHANES dietary data. Kdiet-index was classified using scores of ≤3 points, 4-7 points, and ≥8 points and total Kdietindex were calculated by summing dietary scores. Correlations between Kdiet-index and obesity, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and diabetes were analyzed. The odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for obesity were 0.531, 0.385~0.732 and for elevated cholesterol (≥240 mg/dL) indices were 0.471, 0.282~0.788, respectively, which showed a significant decreased in the risk for each disease for Kdiet-index of ≥8 points. This study confirms that metabolically related clinical results improved significantly as Kdiet-index increased and that higher Korean food pattern indices are associated with lower risks of metabolic disease

The study investigated occurrence of major insect pests and damage to 16-30 representative apple orchards in major apple production area of 4-8 cities and counties in Gyeongsang Provinces and Jeonbuk province for 17 years from 1992 to 2008. In addition, it examined the hatching time of the overwintered eggs of European red mite (Panonychus ulmi) and apple leaf-curling aphid (Myzus malisuctus) at the Apple Research Station in Gunwi-gun, the Gyeongbuk Province from 1993 to 2009, and conducted a survey on the occurrence rate of oriental fruit moth (Grapholita molesta) and peach fruit moth by means of sex pheromone traps at 2-5 day intervals to look into the changes in the occurrence. As the result of survey on the insect pests of representative apple orchards, the population density of two spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae) was higher then that of Panonychus ulmi from 1992 to 1999 while it became lower than Panonychus ulmi from 2000. Although there was difference in spiraea aphid (Aphis citricola) by year, but the occurrence density tended to decline from 1992. Lyonetia prunifoliella had not become a problem in apple orchards before the 1990’s, but it started occurring in 1993-1994 and increased rapidly in the late 1990’s. Later, it has consistently increased as leafminer with Phyllonorycter ringoniella in apple orchards. Tortricid insect pests increased the most highly in the late 1990’s, but it has not been a problem after 2000 and the occurrence and damage by Grapholita molesta was higher than that of Carposina sasakii in apple orchards after 1997. Besides, the damage by stink bugs as well as ambrosia beetles has increased after 2000. In the 2000’s, the initial hatching date of overwintered eggs of Panonychus ulmi and Myzus malisuctus ulmi was 18 and 14 days earlier, the 50% hatching date was 7 and 6 days earlier, and the final hatching date was 1 and three days earlier respectively than that of the 1990’s. In the 2000’s, the first occurrence of Grapholita molesta and Carposina sasakii was earlier by 5 days compared to the 1900’s, and the first occurrence of apple insect pests tended to become earlier compared to the 1990’s.

NATM터널의 경우 대부분 산악지역에 위치함에 따라 배수형 터널이 지배적이다. 그러나 NATM 터널에서의 배수기능 저하와 수압작용, 이에 따른 라이닝 변상(누수, 백태 등)이 다수 보고되었으며, 매년 내구성과 사용성 확보를 위한 유지관리 비용이 투입되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 고속철도 NATM 터널을 대상으로 최근 실시한 정밀안전진단 결과를 활용하여 횡배수관 막힘 현상과 지보패턴과의 상관관계 분석사례를 소개하고 향후 개선방안에 대한 연구방향을 제시하고자 한다.
