Elderly Perception on the Internet of Things-Based Integrated Smart-Home System.
Sensors (Basel)
February 2021
An integrated smart home system (ISHS) is an effective way to improve the quality of life of the elderly. The elderly's willingness is essential to adopt an ISHS; to the best of our knowledge, no study has investigated the elderly's perception of ISHS. Consequently, this study aims to investigate the elderly's perception of the ISHS by comprehensively evaluating its possible benefits and negative responses.

- Freshwater mussels of the genus Nodularia are widely found in East Asia, but their taxonomy and distribution are still unclear.
- Genetic analysis of 169 individuals revealed three genetic clades of N. douglasiae, with one being unique to the Korean Peninsula but not a separate species.
- N. breviconcha was confirmed to be an independent species, separate from N. douglasiae, and potential biogeographic distribution scenarios were proposed.
The complete mitochondrial genome of a freshwater mussel (Bivalvia: Unionidae).
Mitochondrial DNA B Resour
August 2018
The circular F-type mitochondrial genome (15,761 bp) was completely sequenced for a Korean freshwater mussel (synonym ; Unionidae, Unionida, Bivalvia). It contains 13 PCGs, two rRNA genes, and 22 tRNA genes, as generally shown in metazoan mitochondrial genomes. Its gene order is identical to that of F-type mitochondrial genomes observed in other freshwater mussels.

This study was to identify the factors that affect vaccination coverage according to the results of pulmonary function tests depending on the age. In this cross-sectional study, data were obtained from 3,224 adults over the age of 40 who participated in the fifth National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey and underwent pulmonary function testing in 2012.

- The study investigates the preferred brow archetypes among Korean women, surveying 300 participants grouped by their backgrounds (medical students, recent plastic surgery clients, and brow bar visitors).
- Results indicated that 77.3% of respondents believed there is an ideal brow method, with the Anastasia archetype being the most preferred across all groups (44.8% overall).
- Significant differences in preferences were found among the groups, influenced by occupation, but no significant variation was observed based on age, education level, or marital status.
