This study examined the effects of response-facilitating factors(Food-related Knowledge, Response-Efficacy, and Self-Efficacy) and response-inhibiting factors(Severity, Vulnerability, and Consumer Stress) on the consumer’ behavior intention based on protection motivation theory, which explains the behavioral change to protect oneself. This study was conducted to reduce the customers’ concerns regarding food safety accidents and introduce ways to make them more interested in food safety. A sample of 225 adults over 19 years of age was collected in February 2018 through a self-administered questionnaire. The results of the cognitive mediation process of protective motivation theory showed that the consumers’ knowledge and self-efficacy which are response-facilitating factors, positively influence the behavioral intention. Severity and consumer stress were response-inhibiting factors. On the other hand, response-efficacy, which is a response-facilitating factor, and vulnerability, which is a response-inhibiting factor, did not influence the behavioral intention. Therefore, severity and consumer stress are response-inhibiting factors. The results were analyzed as a result of a behavioral change to protect oneself from food safety accidents. The applicability of the theory of protection motivation on the topic of food safety was also confirmed.

Peri-implantitis is an inflammatory lesion of the periodontium surrounding an endosseous implant, with progressive loss of the supporting peri-implant bone. The main purposes of treatment for peri-implantitis due to biological factors include addressing the inflammation and restoring a healthy but reduced periodontium around the implant, similar to the treatment of periodontitis in natural teeth. The proposed treatment protocol includes surgical treatment, mainly resective surgery, after non-surgical treatment such as oral hygiene instructions, mechanical cleansing of the fixture, and general or topical antiseptic or antibiotic application according to the extent of inflammation. In this article, we present a 6-year follow-up case showing unusual marginal bone regeneration after resective surgery and decontamination of an implant surface for the treatment of peri-implantitis and discuss the possible reasons.

PURPOSE: This study was to investigate factors that influence health examination for unmarried women. METHODS: A correlation study was carried out with 144 unmarried women with an age range of 35~49 years through self-administered questionnaires. This questionnaire included Health Belief Model modifying factors (demographic . sociological, structural, and cues to action variables). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, chi2-test, multiple logistic regression. RESULTS: The mean age of participants was 37.2+/-2.67 years. Rates for breast cancer, cervical cancer and comprehensive health examination were each 34.7%, 38.2% and 94%. In multiple logistic regression analysis, influencing factors on physical examination were age(OR=0.06, 95% CI: 0.02~0.26), personal medical insurance (OR=6.30, 95% CI: 1.60~24.82), housemate (OR=7.63, 95% CI: 2.58~22.52), exercise (OR=3.72, 95% CI: 1.37~10.12) in breast cancer examination, and age (OR=0.08, 95% CI: 0.02~0.34; OR=0.07, 95% CI: 0.01~0.85), personal medical insurance (OR=14.17, 95% CI: 2.94~68.23), sexual experiences (OR=3.38, 95% CI: 1.28~8.91), drinking (OR=2.92, 95% CI: 1.14~7.49) in cervical cancer examination. CONCLUSION: The results emphasize the necessity of preparing nursing education and intervention in consideration of associated factors which influence on the health examination in unmarried women.

PURPOSE: The incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD) may further increase in the coming decade as advances in neonatal intensive care enable clinicians to save even smaller, younger and more critically ill infants. The purpose of this study was to evaluate risk factors and prognosis associated with BPD in premature infants. METHODS: The retrospective review on RDS infants admitted to the neonatal intensive care units at the Chonnam University Hospital was done from Jan. 1995 to July. 1997. These infants were divided into two groups, BPD group(n=25) and non-BPD group(n= 112). The incidence, risk factors and therapeutic results of BPD were analyzed. RESULTS: Infants in the BPD group had lower birth weight, gestational age, and lower 1 min Apgar score compared to that of infants in the control group. The incidence of BPD was 18.2Yo and was higher in male infants. Longer duration of oxygen, ventilatory support and higher PIP were noted in the BPD group. There were no significant differences between the two groups concerning duration of postnatal requirement of oxygen supplementation, ventilatory support, and ventilatory parameters such as FiO2 and PEEP. The incidences of PDA and pneumothorax mean fluid volume and weight loss were similar in two groups. Frequent episodes of respiratory infection occurred(31.6%) in BPD group and one patient expired during 6 to 12 month follow up. 22 infants(88%) received dexamethasone in BPD group. Side effects of dexamethasone including hypertension and hyperglycemia occurred in 59.1% and 31.8%, respectively. CONCLUSION: The overall incidence of BPD was 18.2% and the risk factors for BPD included lower birth weight and gestational age, lower Apgar score at 1 minute, longer duration of oxygen and ventilatory support with higher PIP.
