2.Effects of Work Intensity and Physical Discomfort on Job Satisfaction in Clinical Nurses.
Journal of Korean Academy of Nursing Administration 2016;22(4):362-372
PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to investigate whether job satisfaction in clinical nurses was dependent on work intensity and whether physical discomfort mediated the relationships between these variables. METHODS: Structural equation modeling was used with a sample of 253 clinical nurses from four general hospitals. In the model, absolute work intensity, relative work intensity, and flexibility were considered as exogenous variables and physical discomfort as a mediating variable. Data were collected using self-report measures such as the Labor Intensity Questionnaire, the Rating of Perceived Exertion, and the Index of Job Satisfaction. RESULTS: The results of the structural equation modeling found that the higher scores on absolute and relative work intensity were positively associated with physical discomfort but only relative work intensity was significantly related to job satisfaction. Physical discomfort mediated the relationships between absolute work intensity and job satisfaction and between relative work intensity and job satisfaction. Among three kinds of work intensity, only relative work intensity had direct and indirect effects on job satisfaction. CONCLUSION: The findings suggest that increase in relative work intensity might play an important role in decreasing job satisfaction in clinical nurses and a reasonable reward system considering relative work intensity could be necessary.

4.Eosinophilic Esophagitis.
The Korean Journal of Gastroenterology 2007;50(5):286-291
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EE) is characterized by eosinophilic infiltration of the esophageal wall including mucosa, submucosa, and muscle proper. EE is a condition involving both pediatrics and adults. Patients with EE are predominantly young males, commonly related to atopy. The typical clinical presentation includes dysphasia, food impaction, and symptoms mimicking gastroesophageal reflux disease. Endoscopic examination reveals mucosal fragility, ring or corrugated mucosa, whitish plaques, or small caliber esophagus. Histologic finding of >20 eosinophils/HPF (high power field) is the diagnostic hallmark of EE. Elemental formula, systemic or topical corticosteroid, anti-inflammatory drugs such as leukotriene receptor antagonists, anti-interleukin (IL)-5, and anti-IL-13 monoclonal antibodies have been used to manage EE. Esophageal dilation is considered in adult patients with severe obstructive symptoms due to stricture.

6.An Overview of Eosinophilic Esophagitis.
Gut and Liver 2014;8(6):590-597
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic, immune/antigen-mediated esophageal disease affecting both children and adults. The condition is characterized by an eosinophilic infiltration of the esophageal epithelium. Symptoms of esophageal dysfunction include dysphagia, food impaction and symptoms mimicking gastroesophageal reflux disease. Endoscopic examination typically reveals mucosal fragility, ring or corrugated mucosa, longitudinal furrows, whitish plaques or a small caliber esophagus. Histologic findings of >15 eosinophils per high-power field is the diagnostic hallmark of EoE. An elimination diet, topical corticosteroids or endoscopic dilation for fibrostenotic disease serve as effective therapeutic option.

10.Prevention and Treatment of Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting.
Journal of the Korean Medical Association 2007;50(1):65-70
Postoperative nausea and vomiting is an adverse condition that affects a large number of patients after surgical interventions. Postoperative vomiting is a severe discomfort for patients and can be a bigger concern even than postoperative pain. Although many studies have been performed on the pathophysiology of postoperative nausea and vomiting, little has been known about it. This article reviews the risk factors, mechanisms, preventive measures, and treatment of postoperative nausea and vomiting.
