Abstract
PDF

Attending conferences is important for doctors and residents in family medicine. Nevertheless, departments of family medicine at many hospitals find it difficult to hold regular conferences. Holding joint videoconferences between Family Medicine Departments of several hospitals through a videoconferencing system could solve this problem. Therefore, Family Medicine Departments of Seoul National University Hospital, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, and Kangwon National University Hospital decided to hold regular joint videoconferences via a videoconferencing system. Eighty-one joint videoconferences were held from April 1 to October 29, 2010. PowerPoint slideshows were transferred to the other two locations in the same resolution as presenter's monitor. Image and voice of the speaker were transferred in real time and in acceptable quality. Joint videoconferences are feasible, satisfactory and useful for medical education, especially when individual family medicine departments are small and lack resources to hold face-to-face conferences. We expect that more family medicine departments will choose to participate in implementing similar joint videoconferencing systems in the future.

Background
Diet pattern of regular and three meals per day is commonly recommended. Studies investigated the health effect of gorging pattern of diet using meal frequency and meal skipping, but the health effect of meal calorie variation between three regular meals has never been investigated. In this study, maximum meal calorie variation was defined as subtraction calorie for a meal with minimum energy intake from calories for a meal with maximum energy intake between three meals and examined the effect of maximum meal calorie variation between three regular meals a day on cardiovascular risk factors. Methods: A total of 4,680 healthy subjects aged 20-87 years who underwent medical screening examination, at one tertiary hospital health screening center and completed 24-hour dietary recall was included. Serum cholesterol subfractions, fasting glucose and blood pressure were measured.Results: Maximum meal calorie variation was significantly related to serum concentration of total cholesterol (Ղ = 1.77; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.36 to 3.18) and low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) (Ղ = 1.64; 95% CI, 0.37 to 2.91), body mass index (Ղ = 0.24; 95% CI, 0.12 to 0.37) and waist circumference (Ղ = 0.66; 95% CI, 0.34 to 0.98) after adjustment for potential confounders. Conclusion: This study suggests the notion that concentration of total cholesterol and LDL-C and obesity indices are related to maximum meal calorie variation between three meals, independently of energy intake and other confounding factors in free-living population.

Long-term Maintenance of Smoking Cessation and Related Factors of Relapse.: Jae Sang Lee, Shin Myung Kang, Hyoung Jin Kim, Kyong Yeun Lee, Belong Cho, Eurah Goh; Korean J Fam Med 2009;30(3):203-209. Published online March 20, 2009; DOI: https://doi.org/10.4082/kjfm.2009.30.3.203

Abstract

Background
Long-term maintenance of smoking cessation is important to reduce smoking related diseases. There are few studies that evaluated long-term maintenance and related factors. For effective cessation treatment, we analyzed the relapse pattern after cessation and related factors.Methods: We selected people who visited a health care center more than two times between January 1995 and December 2006 and who have succeeded in cessation after the fi rst visit. Telephone survey was done and their medical records was analyzed. A total of 308 people whose medical records corresponded to the results of the telephone survey were fi nally included and analyzed. Results: The mean follow-up duration was 112 months and the mean age of the first visit was 47.9 years. The median maximum duration of abstinence was 5.50 years, and the annual hazard ratio of relapse was about 2.5-4.2% from two to seven years of duration of abstinence. Mean age of smoking onset was 22.9 years, the mean smoking duration was 24.5 years, and the mean smoking amount per a day was 20.0 cigarettes. In single-variate analysis, the total number of cessation success, the age of smoking onset, the mean smoking duration, the mean smoking amount per day, the cessation method, the reason for trying cessation were related with the long-term cessation maintenance. In multi-variate analysis, the total number of success for cesstion, the reason for trying cessation, the cessation method, the mean number of cigarettes per day were related. Conclusion: The experience of relapse, the motive of cessation and self-willingness were shown to be important for long-term maintenance of smoking cessation.
