농업인 재해보장체계 구축방안에 관한 연구
김진수, 전희정, 변영우
사회보장연구

본 연구의 목적은 농업인의 재해에 대한 사회보장체계의 구축방안을 모색함에 있어 근본적인 제도의 성격을 규명하고, 제도의 목적과 역할, 기능에 있어서 타당성과 적절성에 대한 논의를 통하여 농업인 재해보장의 기본체계를 도출하는 것이다. 먼저 농업인 재해보장에 대한 정책방향 설정에 있어 중요한 요소인 농업 보호와 농업인 보호의 차이, 산재보험과 구별되는 농업인 재해의 고유한 성격 및 특성, 타 사회보험제도와의 관련성에 대해 고찰한 후, 농업인 재해 현황과 현재 농업인 재해보장에 직ㆍ간접으로 관련된 제도들을 살펴봄으로써 농업인 재해보장체계 구축의 필요성에 대해 논의하고 있다. 사회보험제도의 구성 및 분석틀에 따라 적용대상, 재정부담 및 조달체계, 급여체계, 재정방식 및 형태, 관리운영체계로 나누어 분석한 결과, 농업인 재해보장체계는 사회보험의 형태로 기존의 산재보험과는 독립된 제도로 설립하고, 타 사회보험과의 관계에 있어서는 보완적 성격을 갖는 체계가 바람직하다. 적용대상은 원칙적으로 모든

Maierdanjiang Wufuer, Tae Hyun Choi, Bakhtiyor Najmiddinov, Junhyung Kim, Jaehoon Choi, Tae-Young Kim, Yongsoo Park, Ji‐hoon Kim, Heejung Jeon, Byung Jun Kim
SJR Q1Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery

BACKGROUND: Although previous clinical studies have reported that cell-assisted lipotransfer increases the fat survival rate in facial fat transplants, most were case studies without quantitative evaluation. A multicenter randomized controlled study was performed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) in facial fat grafts. METHODS: Twenty-three participants were enrolled for autologous fat transfer in the face, and assigned randomly to the experimental ( n = 1

국민기초생활보장제도 개선에 대한 사회복지전담공무원의 인식 연구
전희정, 임란, 박정인

본 연구는 전국 345명의 사회복지전담공무원의 제도에 대한 인식 및 평가를 중심으로, 국민기초생활보장제도의 개선방안에 대한 평가와 이에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분석하였다. 분석결과, 사회복지전담공무원의 제도 및 수급자에 대한 인식 및 평가 수준에 따라서 각 개선방안에 대한 평가에 차이가 나타났다. 특히, 사회복지전담공무원의 재직년수, 업무량 수준에 따라, 그리고 국민기초생활보장 급여수준, 수급자의 탈빈곤 가능성, 자활근로사업의 성과에 대한 사회복지전담공무원의 제도 인식에 따라 개선방안 중 근로능력자 제한규정에 대한 평가가 다르게 나타났다. 이러한 분석결과를 바탕으로 제도 시행 10주년을 맞이한 국민기초생활보장제도의 주요과제와 개선방안을 탐색하였다.

Effect of propofol titration v/s bolus during induction of anesthesia on hemodynamics and bispectral index.
Nitin Shah, Matthew Harris, Kavitha Govindugari, Hamsa B Rangaswamy, Heejung Jeon
PubMed

BACKGROUND: Propofol when given as 2 mg/kg IV bolus for induction of anesthesia is known to cause hypotension requiring vasopressors. The objective of our study was to compare Propofol 2 mg/kg single IV bolus (Precalculated group, PG) with the titration of Propofol (Titration group, TG) to clinical parameters as 10 mg IV increments every 3 seconds on hemodynamic Parameters and Bispectral Index (BIS), during induction. The effect of titration on dose requirement for induction was also evaluated.

Long-term late effects in older gastric cancer survivors: Survival analysis using Cox hazard regression model by retrospective electronic health records
Misun Jeon, Hyoeun Jang, Heejung Jeon, Chang Gi Park, Sanghee Kim
SJR Q1Supportive Care in CancerOA

PURPOSE: Because the population of older gastric cancer survivors (GCSs) is growing, understanding the long-term late effects experienced by these GCSs and their impact on survival outcomes is crucial for optimizing survivorship care. This study aims to identify and characterize these effects and investigate their association with survival outcomes. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of electronic health records was conducted on 9,539 GCSs diagnosed between 2011 and 2017. The GCSs were divided in

Dynamic Changes in the Bridging Collaterals of the Basal Ganglia Circuitry Control Stress-Related Behaviors in Mice
Young Lee, 한나은, 김원주, 김재곤, 이인범, 최수정, 전희정, Misun Seo, 이창준, Hae-Young Koh, Joung-Hun Kim, Ja-Hyun Baik

The basal ganglia network has been implicated in the control of adaptive behavior, possibly by integrating motor learning and motivational processes. Both positive and negative reinforcement appear to shape our behavioral adaptation by modulating the function of the basal ganglia. Here, we examined a transgenic mouse line (G2CT) in which synaptic transmissions onto the medium spiny neurons (MSNs) of the basal ganglia are depressed. We found that the level of collaterals from direct pathway MSNs

연명의료결정제도의 경험과 개선점: 제도 관련자들의 견해를 중심으로
전희정, 최지연, 이일학

연명의료결정제도가 시행된 이래로 한국 사회에서는 제도의 정착을 목표로 한 다양한 연구가 수행되어왔다. 그간 수행되었던 관련 연구와 사업을 토대로 제도가 광범위하게 적용되고 실제 돌봄을 변화시키는 것을 고려해야 하는 시점으로 사용자들의 경험을 확인하고 적절한 전략을 마련하는 작업이 요구된다. 이 과정에서 시행 3년간 제도 운영에 참여해 온 관련자의 경험은 중요한 기초자료로써 활용 가치가 있다. 본 논문은 향후 연명의료결정제도의 개선안 마련의 기초자료를 마련하기 위하여, 제도 관련자들을 대상으로 한 초점집단면접을 시행하고 그들의 경험을 수집하고 이들이 제안한 개선점을 확인하는 내용으로 구성하였다. 초점집단면접은 제도 관련 기관종사자 그룹, 의료제공자 그룹, 의료사용자 그룹을 대상으로 진행했으며 죽음을 포함한 전반적인 사회환경의 변화와 임종기 문화 간의 관계, 예측 가능한 제도의 변화 및 대처 전략과 관련한 내용에 집중하였다. 자료 분석은 주제분석방법(Braun & Clarke, 2006

보건의료계열 대학원생 대상 연구윤리 교육에 대한 동향과 시사점
전희정, 전미선, 이고은, 김준혁, 정회인, 김상희
생명윤리

보건의료분야 연구는 인간의 건강과 생애 전반에 밀접하게 관련되며 다양한 연구 대상과 복잡한 윤리적 상황을 포함하고 있어 연구윤리의 중요성이 특히 강조된다. 따라서 연구를 시작하는 대학원생이 책임있는 연구자로 성장하기 위해서는 체계적이고 지속적인 연구윤리 교육이 필수적이다. 본 연구는 대학원생 대상 연구윤리 교육의 동향, 특성, 내용을 주제범위 문헌고찰을 통해 검토하고 향후 교육 설계 및 운영을 위한 시사점을 도출하고자 수행되었다. Arksey와 O’Malley(2005)의 주제범위 문헌고찰 단계를 기반으로 2005년 1월부터 2023년 9월까지 PubMed, CINAHL, EMBASE, WOS, KISS, KMbase, KoreaMed 데이터를 검색하였으며, 제목, 초록, 전문을 검토하여 최종 20편의 연구를 선정하였다. 선정된 연구 중 12편은 탐색 목적(60%), 7편은 교육 프로그램 개발 또는 평가(35%)를 목적으로 수행되었으며, 교육 방식은 교과과정 유형에 따라 달랐다. 정
