The purpose of this study is to develop medicine electronic order system to improve medicine logistics using information and communication technologies. The Electronic Order System of medicine using Web EDJ adopted the Internet and Web-based technologies which grows so fast lately, enables medical institutions to place an order with the pharmaceutical companies for various pharmacy and vendors to receive an order form in electronical ways and to deliver the products. It designed that every application programs installed and run at web-server, so if personal computers located in user facilities have only web-browser, user can order medicines wherever Internet is available. We can expect two effects from this system. First, it reduces cost and budget because of substituting electronical ordering the pharmacy for telephoning or faxing. Secondly, in technical side, it utilized a new kind of concept, Internet-based EDJ, not VAN(Value Added Network) EDI using the existent closed network.

With the development and utilization of computer techniques, Internet is playing an important role in information dissemination. There are abundant biomedical resources on the Internet. Accessing biomedical information is more dependent on the Internet than ever. It is important to explore new methods to describe and manage information resources. We have analyzed biomedical databases, search engines, web sites, and the metadata adopted by biomedical databases. The results show that biomedical information resources are characterized by electronic format, networking, dynamia, and dispersion. Describing a resource with metadata allows it to be understood by both humans and machines in ways that promote interoperability. Metadata interoperability has to be the underlying principle for networked information management. It directly impinges on information sharing, interchange, and accessibility across the boundaries of systems, languages, and geographic locations. We can use metadata to describe biomedical information and to integrate resources. It will benefit the people to access, select, and utilize biomedical information resources.

Real-time data reporting in clinical research networks can provide network members through interim analyses of the registered data, which can facilitate further studies and quality improvement activities. The aim of this report was to describe the building process of the data display system (DDS) of the Korean Neonatal Network (KNN) and its basic structure. After member verification at the KNN member's site, users can choose a variable of interest that is listed in the in-hospital data statistics (for 90 variables) or in the follow-up data statistics (for 54 variables). The statistical results of the outcome variables are displayed on the HyperText Markup Language 5-based chart graphs and tables. Participating hospitals can compare their performance to those of KNN as a whole and identify the trends over time. Ranking of each participating hospital is also displayed in terms of key outcome variables such as mortality and major neonatal morbidities with the names of other centers blinded. The most powerful function of the DDS is the ability to perform 'conditional filtering' which allows users to exclusively review the records of interest. Further collaboration is needed to upgrade the DDS to a more sophisticated analytical system and to provide a more user-friendly interface.

The status and function of family plays the key role in the maintenance, aggravation and recovery of adolescent internet addiction. Especially, the secure attachment and open communication between parents and adolescents can prevent the situation from getting worse. Given the adequate supervision, support and relationship in the family, the adolescents can be immunized against internet addiction. Internet addicts have diverse underlying psychopathologies, such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, impulse control disorder, depressive-anxiety disorder, and socialization deficit. The management of the internet addicts needs a holistic approach including medication for the underlying psychopathology, family therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and educational therapy. In this review article, the authors describe the family education, family therapy and multidisciplinary-integrative inpatient treatment for the adolescent internet addicts.

OBJECTIVES: This study examined the status of children's favorite foods intake and the relationship with the policy environment based on the Special Act on Safety Control of Children's Dietary Life for suggesting a supportive policy strategy. METHODS: The subjects were 4th grade students (n=1,638) in elementary school from 45 schools collected from seven areas (Seoul, Daegu, Daejeon, Gyeonggi, Chungnam, Jeonbuk, and Gyeongnam). The children participated in a self-administered questionnaire survey in class under the supervision of the teacher. The questionnaire consisted of items, such as social demographic characteristics, frequency of intake of the children's favorite foods, and policy cognition. A t-test and ANOVA were applied to explore the relationship between the frequency of children's favorite foods intake and policy cognition. The survey was implemented from August 2016 to September 2016. RESULTS: For the boys, the frequency of ‘high-calorie low nutrient foods intake’ (HCLN) was significantly higher than that of the girls (p<0.01). For the children who received information on their favorite foods from the internet, the frequency of HCLN was higher than the other sources (p<0.01). The time of TV viewing and computer usage, and smartphone usage was associated with a higher frequency of HCLN, and a lower healthy favorite food intake (all p<0.001). The intake frequency of healthy favorite foods indicated a positive correlation with the policy cognition, including policy perception, usefulness, necessity and buying intention, and educational experience. CONCLUSIONS: This study showed a correlation with the frequency of children's favorite foods intake and policy. In particular, the frequency of children's healthy favorite foods intake indicated a meaningful relationship with the policy than the frequency of HCLN. This study also found that the consumption of children's healthy favorite foods was positively correlated with the educational experience. To develop a supportive policy for a good dietary environment for children, there is a need to focus on how to collaborate with multiple levels of influences, such as the national level, school level, and family.

The outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has spread rapidly around the world. As of May 30, 2020, a total of 84 568 confirmed COVID-19 cases have been recorded in China, with a mortality rate of approximately 5.5%. Taizhou is a prefecture-level city in Zhejiang Province. A total of 146 cases were diagnosed in this epidemic, with a fatality rate of 0%. This condition is due to the establishment of an "Internet +" diagnosis and treatment model based on online medical application (APP), telemedicine, WeChat service, and consultation hotline in Taizhou. Taizhou led in opening the "COVID-19 Prevention and Treatment Special Line" in China, which is conducive to pre-hospital screening, suppressing social panic, and clinical support. Hospitals also carried out related online lectures and popularization of science. We summarize Taizhou's COVID-19 prevention and control experience with telemedicine features, with a view to providing reference for the control of the epidemic at home and abroad.
