Since the World Health Organization has offi cially declared a global infl uenza pandemic, the number of human cases of pandemic infl uenza A (H1N1) in 2009 has been increasing in many countries. Especially from mid-October, the number of domestic cases of infl uenza A (H1N1) has been exponentially increasing, with the number of confi rmed cases reaching over 100,000. The clinical symptoms of novel infl uenza A (H1N1) include fever, cough, sore throat, runny nose, myalgia, headache, chills and fatigue. Nucleic acid amplification tests, including real time RT-PCR assay specific for 2009 novel influenza A (H1N1) can be used in the patients with suspected influenza. Antiviral treatment by using neuraminidase inhibitors (oseltamivir, zanamivir) is recommended by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for treatment of novel influenza A (H1N1) disease. Personal and public efforts to control the outbreak of novel influenza A (H1N1) disease are required. Vaccination against pandemic H1N1 is important for personal health, but also to build community-level immunity to novel infl uenza A.

Background
There were debates on the relationship between peak expiratory fl ow (PEF) and oil spill cleanup activity. The aim of this study was to compare the distinction of PEF among pre-works and post-works in Hebei Spirit oil. Methods: The study subjects were participators of cleanup works. The questionaire on symptoms was done. And PEF was measured. The subjects were sampled on random basis. We then used a logistic regression analysis to evaluate the effects of cleanup works on PEF. Results: Only 66 (35.3%) participants versus 121 showed with low values in PEF before cleanup works. But, 78 (80.1%) participants versus 20 significantly showed with low values in PEF after cleanup works (P = 0.002). On our analysis, measuring their own PEF after cleanup works (Odds ratio [OR], 2.328; 95% confi dence interval [CI], 1.218 to 6.624), female gender (OR, 5.841; 95% CI, 3.571 to 9.557), the number of working days on cleanup activities (OR, 2.760; 95% CI, 1.364 to 7.900), and residents (OR, 4.610; 95% CI, 2.488 to 8.544) were shown to be signifi cant risk factors for low value of peak expiratory fl ow. Conclusion: Our results suggest that exposure to petroleum in cleanup works are associated with a signifi cant low value in PEF. But, the heterogeneity of pre-works and post-works groups is a limitation of the study.

Background
There are limited data regarding smoking cessation treatment by physicians in Korea. Thus, we investigated the attitude to smoking cessation intervention and services among Korean physicians. Methods: This survey was conducted in 987 participating physicians who had experiences in smoking cessation services. The subjective diffi culties of smoking cessation services and its causes and the presumptive reasons for failure of smoking cessation among their patients were investigated using questionnaires. Results: Overall smoking rate among Korean physicians who participated in this survey was 12.6%. Most participating physicians had a diffi culty in smoking cessation services and its causes were high cost of medication for smoking cessation due to non-imbursement (50.7%) and the absence of a medical fee on smoking cessation services (34.8%). The high cost of medication for smoking cessation due to non-imbursement (29.5%) also ranked high in the presumptive reasons for failure of smoking cessation among their patients. Conclusion: The smoking rate of Korean physicians in this survey was lower than those of the general population. Most participating physicians had a difficulty in offering smoking cessation services. And the most common cause for the diffi cult was non-imbursement of their services and medication.

Background
Nowadays 2-year 'Compulsory Clinical Training Program' is on issue. The perception and opinions for the new training system of residents and interns may be essential to establish ideal postgraduate medical education. Methods: A questionnaire survey of postgraduate trainee from March to April 2008 was performed by person to person method. Gender, age, specialty, the location and the facility of the hospital, and 7 questions reflecting individual perception and opinions for the 'Compulsory Clinical Training Program' were reviewed. Results: Among in 1,314, 1,284 subjects completed the survey fully. We divided 1,284 sujects into 4 groups; Intern; Resident of Family Medicine; Resident of Internal Medicine or Pediatrics; Resident of other than Family Medicine, Internal Medicine and Pediatrics. About the vision for independent clinical skills through the 'Compulsory Clinical Training Program', most were negative. They were afraid of 'prolongation of current Internship' or 'unclear quality of the training course'. In case of setting the 'Compulsory Clinical Training Program', most chose additional resident courses for specialty. The main opinion about the ideal model of a primary physician was medical doctors who obtained primary care specialty. Conclusion: Most of the residents and interns think that the specialists of family medicine, internal medicine or pediatrics are suitable for primary care. And on wishing the additional residency course even after 'Compulsory Clinical Training Program', they doubt about the effi cacy of the new training system.

Background
Overactive bladder syndrome (OAB) is a common disorder in primary care that affects negatively on the quality of life of outpatients. However, little information is available on related factors and the quality of life in adults with overactive bladder. The purpose of this study was to fi nd related factors of overactive bladder and to measure the quality of life in adults with overactive bladder. Methods: Among the people who visited a hospital in Seoul and Chung-ju for a health xamination or primary care between October 1 and December 31, 2008, we selected 327 participants over 20 years old. We measured their Overactive Bladder Questionnaire (OAB-q), took medical history and reviewed their demographic data. The relationship between OAB, other independent variables and health related quality of life (HRQL) were analyzed. Results: Of 327 respondents, the prevalence of OAB in adults was 38 (11.6%). The factors related to OAB were age (P = 0.007), history of prescription for congestive heart failure (P = 0.023), benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) (P = 0.002), and depression (P = 0.008). OAB was signifi cantly associated with BPH medication (P = 0.042; OR = 8.757) and depression medication (P = 0.005; OR = 9.977) in multivariable logistic regression analysis. In each T-test analysis, OAB decreased in HRQL. Conclusion: OAB is a common disorder in adults, history of BPH medication and depression medication is more common in OAB. The symptoms that were suggestive of OAB were affected negatively on the quality of life in adults. Effective health care polices and prompt management of OAB should be implemented.

Background
Fatigue is a common problem in medical students and is thought to be related to poor academic performance. Fatigue is expected to be highly related to dietary habits, but previous research was not enough. Therefore, the aims of this study were to investigate the relationship between dietary habits and the prevalence of fatigue and also to give an update on basic research data for improving academic performance in medical students. Methods: The study group consisted of 170 healthy second-year medical students attending three university school of medicine in Busan. They completed a questionnaire dealing with fatigue (Fatigue Severity Scale), dietary habits, lifestyle, and academic performance. Results: On multivariate logistic regression analyses, skipping breakfast (completely skipping breakfast everyday versus having breakfast everyday; odds ratio 7.23; 95% confi dence interval, 2.07 to 25.28; P = 0.002) was positively correlated with the complaints of fatigue. Conclusion: Skipping breakfast was associated with the complaints of fatigue in medical students.

Backgroud: Body mass index (BMI) for gender and age and percentage-weight-for-height (PWH) for gender and height have been frequently used to diagnose childhood obesity. However, few studies have examined the optimal cutoff of percent body fat (%BF) to predict metabolic abnormalities in obese children. Methods: One thousand fi fteen obese children aged 10 to 15 years were enrolled in this study. The %BF cutoff values were calculated by ROC analysis for metabolic abnormalities. We also calculated %BF cutoff values corresponding to a BMI of > 85th or 95th percentile for gender and age and a PWH of > 120% for gender and height based on the 2007 Korean children and adolescents growth standard chart. To defi ne metabolic abnormalities in children, we used the criteria of metabolic syndrome recommended by International Diabetes Federation consensus for children and adolescents. Results: The %BF cutoff corresponding to the group having more than one metabolic abnormality in this study population were 38.4% (sensitivity 40.1%, specifi city 84.4%) in total, 38.4% (sensitivity 35.4%, specifi city 84.8%) in boys and 39.5% (sensitivity 38.9%, specifi city 90.9%) in girls. The %BF cutoff values corresponding to a BMI ≥ 95 percentile were 38.1% (sensitivity 50.5%, specifi city 72.7%), a BMI ≥ 85 percentile were 34.5% (sensitivity 69.3%, specifi city 74.2%), and a PWH ≥ 120% were 36.4% (sensitivity 72.3%, specifi city 64.4%) in total. Conclusion: The optimal cutoff value of percent body fat to predict metabolic abnormalities in obese children may be 38.4% (boys 38.4, girls 39.5%) and we suggest 34.5% as a cutoff value of %BF for screening childhood obesity.
