  • Household-level surrounding greenspace as a nature-based intervention for health recovery after occupational injury

    Open AccessDoyun Song, Shawn Kim et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2026

    Introduction Urban greening has been increasingly discussed as a component of health-supportive environments. While greenspace exposure has been associated with psychological restoration, limited evidence exists regarding household-level responses among families affected by occupational injury. This study examined whether a structured forest-based intervention was associated with short-term changes in psychological burden, resilience, and perceiv…

  • Association between Heavy Metal Exposure and Dyslipidemia among Korean Adults

    Open AccessDo‐Won Kim, Do-won Kim et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2022

    Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of death in Korea. Dyslipidemia, characterized by the presence of abnormal lipid levels, has been suggested as an early diagnostic and preventable factor for CVD. Recent studies have shown that exposure to lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), and mercury (Hg) affects lipid metabolism. This study aimed to verify the association between heavy metal concentrations and serum lipid profiles in the general population…

  • Effects of a Forest Therapy Program on Reducing PTSD and Depression and Improving Mood States in Fire Officers

    Open AccessChoong-Hee Park, Juhyeon Chun et al.ARTICLEJournal of People, Plants, and…2021

    Background and objective This study was conducted to investigate the effects of forest therapy programs on reducing post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression and improving mood states in fire officers. Methods To determine PTSD, depression, and mood states before and after the forest therapy program, the survey results of 185 fire officers were analyzed. Frequency analysis was conducted to identify the demographic characteristics of the p…

  • Association between Pb, Cd, and Hg Exposure and Liver Injury among Korean Adults

    Open AccessDo‐Won Kim, Do-won Kim et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2021

    Heavy metal exposure showed an association with liver injury among the general adult population in Korea. Further studies are required to clarify the relationship between heavy metals and liver injury

  • Comparison of Short-Term Associations between PM2.5 Components and Mortality across Six Major Cities in South Korea

    Open AccessSi-Eun Yoo, Jinsoo Park et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2019

    Association between short-term exposure to fine particulate matter (PM 2.5 ) and mortality or morbidity varies geographically, and this variation could be due to different chemical composition affected by local sources. However, there have been only a few Asian studies possibly due to limited monitoring data. Using nationwide regulatory monitoring data of PM 2.5 chemical components in South Korea, we aimed to compare the associations between dail…

  • Association by Spatial Interpolation between Ozone Levels and Lung Function of Residents at an Industrial Complex in South Korea

    Open AccessSoon‐Won Jung, Soon-Won Jung et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2016

    Spatial interpolation is employed to improve exposure estimates and to assess adverse health effects associated with environmental risk factors. Since various studies have reported that high ozone (O3) concentrations can give rise to adverse effects on respiratory symptoms and lung function, we investigated the association between O3 levels and lung function using a variety of spatial interpolation techniques and evaluated how different methods f…
