We compared the composition of the fecal microbiotas of Korean and U.S. adult twins. Our data indicated that the gut microbiota shows some signature of biogeography, potentially mediated by differences in diet and/or other environmental factors; however, these regional differences may be masked by other phenotypic variations, such as obesity.

Glycoside hydrolases (GHs), the enzymes that breakdown complex carbohydrates, are a highly diversified class of key enzymes associated with the gut microbiota and its metabolic functions. To learn more about the diversity of GHs and their potential role in a variety of gut microbiomes, we used a combination of 16S, metagenomic and targeted amplicon sequencing data to study one of these enzyme families in detail. Specifically, we employed a functional gene-targeted metagenomic approach to the 1-4

Abnormal vaginal microbiota (AVM), including bacterial vaginosis (BV), is caused by a microbiota imbalance. Nugent scoring is the gold standard for the laboratory diagnosis of BV; however, it is somewhat subjective to interpret, and challenging to distinguish bacteria. Hence, there is a need for improved technologies for the accurate diagnosis of AVM. To this end, next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology has been shown to yield comprehensive information on the pathophysiology of AVM. Hence, t

Purpose: The Lee Jong-Wook Seoul Project, which began in 2011, is a training program that aims to educate faculty membersof Lao University of Health Sciences in medical knowledge and skills. The project has tremendous significance, attempting to applythe Korean health care developmental model to developing countries. Precise evaluation of the project outcome must be performedto enhance the effectiveness, improve the shortcomings, and adjust the future direction of the program. Methods: Trainers

Lactobacillus ruminis SPM0211 is a potential probiotic strain that shows antimicrobial activity against emerging pathogens. Here we present the draft genomic sequence of L. ruminis SPM0211, isolated from a fecal sample from a healthy Korean and describe both the common and unique features of this strain.

Our study investigated the available chlorine content, contact time and difference among strains of each pathogen for sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) to control chemically against soil-borne fungal pathogens, such as Phytophthora rot by <i>Phytophthora cactorum</i>, violet root rot by <i>Helicobasidium mompa</i>, and white root rot by <i>Rosellinia necatrix</i>, causing die-back symptom on apple trees. As a result, the colony growth of <i>Phytophthora cactorum</i> was inhibited completely by soaking

Recently, severe dieback of apple tree has occurred in the apple orchards of Chungbuk province. Dieback rate and its casual agents have been investigated on the Chungbuk province apple orchards in 2013-2015. Out of 29,265 apple trees in the 27 orchards throughout Chungbuk province, 4,000 apple trees (13.7%) showed dieback symptoms. The causes of dieback were Phytophthora rot (50.4%), violet root rot by Helicobasidium sp. (27.1%), rodents (10%), white root rot by Rosellinia sp. (6.3%), and freezi

Recently, the severe dieback of apple trees resulting from soil-borne diseases has occurred in South Korea. The casual agents of dieback were surveyed on 74 apple orchards that had been damaged nationwide in 2016-2019. The number of apple orchards affected alone by Phytophthora rot, violet root rot, and white root rot was 31, 34, and 3, respectively. Also, the total number of mixed infection orchards was 6. Out of 9,112 apple trees affected by dieback, the trees damaged by Phytophthora rot, viol

Sweet potato starch was modified using Thermus aquaticus α-1,4-glucanotransferase (TaαGT), and its structural and rheological properties were investigated. TaαGT-modified starch had a lower amylose level and molecular weight than raw starch. The chain length distribution showed an increased number of short and long branched chains and the formation of cycloamyloses. Compared with raw starch, TaαGT-modified starch displayed a lower gelatinization enthalpy and a wider melting temperature range. Th

연구 목적: 이 연구는 MZ세대 비보건･의료계열 대학생이 인식하는 간호사의 호감도와 이미지를 확인하고, COVID-19 확산 전후 간호사 이미지의 차이를 분석하여 향후 간호사의 이미지 강화에 필요한 요소들을 도출하고 논의하는데 목적이 있다. 연구 방법: 연구의 목적에 따라 MZ세대를 대표하는 대학생들을 연구대상으로 선정하고 서울 소재 K대학 비보건･의료계열 학생을 대상으로 간호사의 호감도와 이미지에 대한 설문조사를 수행하였다. 총 234명의 설문 응답을 SPSS 22.0을 사용하여 기술통계 및 간호사 이미지에 대한 항목별 비교와 COVID-19 확산 이전과 이후 간호사 이미지를 비교 분석하였다. 연구 내용: COVID-19 확산 이후의 현재 간호사 이미지가 이전보다 긍정적임을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 간호사를 대면해본 경험 유무와 상관없이 COVID-19 확산 이후 간호사에 대한 이미지가 이전보다 긍정적으로 형성되었다는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, 문항별 간호사 이미지 중 간호사는 ‘

국가경쟁력을 위해서 여성의 경제활동 참가율을 올려야 한다. 그렇게 하기 위해서는 기혼여성들의 육아부담을 국가 또는 사회가 어느 정도 책임을 같이 져야 한다. 양육이 더 이상 개별가정의 문제가 아니라 복지사회구현을 위한 사회적, 국가적 관심과 책임이기에 더욱 그러하다. 영유아 보육을 위한 보육시설의 질을 확보하기 위해서는 정상적인 보육조건 설정과 함께 그에 따른 합리적인 비용을 알 필요가 있다. 이에 본 연구의 목적은 보육시설의 재정적 어려움을 해소할 수 있고, 합리적인 운영을 위해서 표준보육비를 산출하는 것이다. 이를 위해 표준보육조건을 규정하고 표준보육단가의 모형을 만든 후 인건비, 급식비, 교재교구비, 시설관리비, 시설투자비에 대한 표준보육단가를 산출한다. 이를 통해 중앙정부와 지방정부의 보육재정지원 정책을 합리적으로 수립하는데도 도움을 주고자 한다.

연구목적: 본 연구의 목적은 상급초보 간호사의 재직의도에 영향을 미치는 요인을 설명하고 예측하는 구조모형을 구축하는 데 있다. 연구결과로 확인된 구조모형을 통해 상급초보 간호사의 재직의도를 향상시키고 간호사 인적자원관리의 기초자료를 수립하고자 하였다. 연구방법: 가설 모형 구축을 위해 재직의도에 영향을 미치는 잠재변인들을 체계적 문헌고찰과 메타분석을 통해 확인하였으며, 간호전문직관, 소명의식, 간호근무환경, 긍정심리자본, 직무만족이 변인으로 선정되었다. 가설 모형은 구조방정식을 통해 모형의 적합성을 확인하였으며, 통계분석을 위해 SPSS 25.0, AMOS 22.0, Mplus 61.2 프로그램이 사용되었다. 연구결과: 간호전문직관은 상급초보 간호사의 재직의도에 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 확인되었다. 최종 구조모형은 RMSEA=.062, SRMR=.052, RMR=.048, CFI=0.95, TLI=0.94로 나타나 재직의도를 유의미하게 설명하고 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 결론: 직무

<i>Lactobacillus jensenii</i> SNUV360 is a potential probiotic strain that shows antimicrobial activity for the treatment of bacterial vaginosis. Here, we present the complete genomic sequence of <i>L. jensenii</i> SNUV360, isolated from a vaginal sample from a healthy Korean woman.

Our study was carried out to determine the control efficacy of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) for violet root rot caused by Helicobasidium mompa in apple. The experiment was conducted in the farm located at Chungbuk province in South Korea from 2014 to 2016. When infected apple trees were treated at least two or three times with 31.25 and 62.5 ml/l available chlorine content in NaOCl, it greatly increased the rooting of rootstock, and restored the tree crown density by 44.4-60.5%. In addition, the
