Relation of the Blood Pressure, Lipids and Body Mass Index by Smoking Status Among Adolescents: Young Soon Byeon, Hea Shoon Lee; Journal of Korean Academy of Nursing 2007;37(6):1020-1026. Published online March 28, 2017; DOI: https://doi.org/10.4040/jkan.2007.37.6.1020

PURPOSE: This study was to investigate the relationship between blood pressure, lipids and body mass index by smoking status among adolescents. METHODS: This study was designed as a descriptive correlational study. General and smoking characteristics were collected using a questionnaire. The smoking group consisted of 42 (33%) students and the non smoking group 85 (67%) students. Blood pressure, lipids, height and weight were measured, and body mass index was calculated to kg/m2. The collected data was analyzed by the n(%), chi-square-test, t-test and Pearson correlation coefficient (SPSS 12.0). RESULTS: 1. The smoking level was different between grade, smoking status among the family, the contentment of their relationship with their parents, school life and teachers. 2. The smoking group's systolic blood pressure, total cholesterol, triglyceride, low density lipoprotein cholesterol and body mass index were higher than those of the non smoking group. 3. The smoking amount had a significant positive correlation between total cholesterol and low density lipoprotein cholesterol. CONCLUSION: The result of this study offered basic data to develop intervention programs to prevent hypertension and hyperlipidemia in smoking adolescents.

Published online October 31, 2014; DOI: https://doi.org/10.4040/jkan.2014.44.5.484

Abstract PDF

Purpose

The purpose of this study was to identify trends for studies published in the Journal of Korean Academy of Nursing and journals published by member societies from inaugural issues to 2010.

Methods

A total of 6890 studies were analyzed using descriptive statistics.

Results

Quantitative studies accounted for 83.6% while qualitative studies accounted for 14.4%. Most frequently used research designs were quasi-experimental (91.1%) for experimental research and survey (85.2%) for non-experimental research. Most frequent study participants were healthy people (35.8%), most frequent nursing interventions, nursing skills (53.5%), and 39.8% used knowledge, attitude and behavior outcomes for dependent variables. Most frequently used keyword was elderly. Survey studies decreased from 1991 to 2010 by approximately 50%, while qualitative studies increased by about 20%. True experimental research (1.2%) showed no significant changes. Studies focusing on healthy populations increased from 2001-2005 (37.5%) to 2006-2010 (41.0%). From 1970 to 2010, studies using questionnaire accounted for over 50% whereas physiological measurement, approximately 5% only. Experimental studies using nursing skill interventions increased from 1970-1980 (30.4%) to 2006-2010 (64.0%). No significant changes were noted in studies using knowledge, attitude and behavior (39.9% ) as dependent variables.

Conclusion

The results suggest that further expansion of true experimental, qualitative studies and physiological measurements are needed.

Re-employment Experience of Nurses Who Have Left the Profession: Young Soon Byeon, Miyoung Kim; J Korean Acad Nurs 2008;38(5):768-778. Published online October 30, 2008; DOI: https://doi.org/10.4040/jkan.2008.38.5.768

Abstract PDF

Purpose

The purpose of this study was to explore the re-employment process of inactivated nurses returning to the nursing field and to develop a grounded theory about their re-employment experiences.

Methods

Data was collected through a face-to-face interview and telephone interviews from 10 nurses. The ground theory methodology of Strauss and Corbin (1998) was used for theoretical sampling in accordance with their unemployment period and reason for leaving prior to reemployment; whereas works of data collection and analysis were performed concurrently.

Results

The core category was discovered to be 'identifying a career path by striking a balance between the practical and the ideal'. This series of processes was categorized into five stages: 'trying to get a job again', 'tolerating difficulties as a beginner', 'trying their best to remain a nurse', 'trying to get another job', and 'staying in the profession till the end'.

Conclusion

The results of this study suggest an understanding and profound insight on the issue of a nursing shortage.

A Study on Physical Symptom, Activity of Daily Living, and Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) in the Community-Dwelling Older Adults: Kyung-Rim Shin, Young Soon Byeon, Younhee Kang, Jiwon Oak; J Korean Acad Nurs 2008;38(3):437-444. Published online June 30, 2008; DOI: https://doi.org/10.4040/jkan.2008.38.3.437

Abstract PDF

Purpose

This study aimed to identify the relationships among physical symptoms, activities of daily living, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in community-dwelling older adults.

Methods

A stratified random sampling method was conducted to recruit participants from May 10 to August 17, 2007. Physical symptoms were measured using the Physical Health Questionnaire (PHQ), activities of daily living using the Late-Life Functional and Disability Instrument (LLFDI), and HRQoL using the Medical Outcomes Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) in 242 community-dwelling elderly Korean people.

Results

The HRQoL correlates with the physical symptoms (r=-.31) and the function component (r=.59). Of the two disability parts of the LLFDI, the limitation dimension correlates higher (r=.57) with HRQoL than the frequency dimension (r=.42). The HRQoL is significantly associated with the function component, and disability limitation in capability which explained 44.4% of variance in physical health.

Conclusion

These results may contribute to a better understanding of physical symptoms, activities of daily living, and HRQoL in community-dwelling older adults. Therefore, health programs for prompting older adult's health should be planned based on results of the study.

A Study on Health Behavior in People at Risk for a Cerebrovascular Accident: Mi Sook Song, Young Soon Byeon, Kyoung Sook Lim, Ji Won Oak; Journal of Korean Academy of Nursing 2007;37(7):1091-1097. Published online December 31, 2007; DOI: https://doi.org/10.4040/jkan.2007.37.7.1091

Abstract PDF

Purpose

This study was done to survey health behaviors in people at risk for a Cerebrovascular Accident(CVA).

Method

From November 21 to December 29, 2005, a questionnaire survey was conducted with 171 people at risk for a Cerebrovascular Accident(LDL of above 130 mg/dl & homocysteine of above 15.0 micromol/L). Their physical composition was measured and blood was collected.

Results

1. Of the subjects, 34.5% were smokers, 61.4% were drinkers, 56.7% did not exercise regularly, 57.3% did not control their weight, 26.9% preferred eating meat, and 32.2% preferred salty food. 2. The gender was different between smoking status(χ²=10.734, p=.001), and drinking status(χ²=7.185, p=.007), and the age was different between smoking statusχ²=6.656, p=.010), and drinking status(χ²=10.722, p=.001). The HbA1C level was different for regular exercise(χ²= 4.824, p=.028) and the HDL-cholesterol was different for meat-eating preference(χ²=7.928, p=.005). The observance of troubling signs was different for a salty food preference(χ²=4.313, p=.038).

Conclusion

It is necessary to develop programs for taking care of people at risk for a Cerebrovascular Accident and test the effects of the programs in order to reduce the risk factors of CVA and enhance health behavior promotion.
