We constructed the family tree database (DB) by using a new family code system that can logically express interpersonal family relationships and by comparing and complementing health insurance eligibility data and resident register data of the National Health Information Database (NHID). In the family tree DB, Parents and grandparents are matched for more than 95% of those who were born between 2010 and 2017. Codes for inverse relationships and extended relationships are generated using sequences of the three-digit basic family codes. The family tree DB contains variables such as sex, birth year, family relations, and degree of kinship (maximum of 4) between subjects and family members. Using the family tree DB, we find that prevalence rates of hypertension, diabetes, ischemic heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, and cancer are higher for those with family history. The family tree DB may omit some relationships due to incomplete past data, and some family relations cannot be uniquely determined because the source data only contain relationships between head and members of the household. The family tree DB is a part of the NHID, and researchers can submit requests for data on the website at http://nhiss.nhis.or.kr. Requested data will be provided after approval from the data service review board. However, the family tree DB can be limitedly provided for studies with high public value in order to maximize personal information protection.

Objetivo: Conocer y analizar la muerte materna, a partir de una aproximación a la realidad familiar, al indagar la experiencia vivida por los familiares de la mujer fallecida y valorar los cambios en los roles y la dinámica familiar. Materiales y Métodos: La investigación se realizó mediante metodología cualitativa, a través del estudio de casos; éstos fueron diez familias que tuvieron una muerte materna en los últimos cinco años, atendidas en hospitales y clínicas del departamento del Tolima-Colombia. Resultados: Ante una muerte materna, las familias y cada uno de sus miembros se tornan vulnerables. Cuando se cuenta con el apoyo de otros familiares, amigos o vecinos, el jefe de familia tiene un trabajo, o la familia pertenece a un grupo religioso o red de apoyo social, la situación se hace menos traumática. Las relaciones familiares en algunos casos se fortalecen, en otros empeoran, particularmente entre suegras y yernos. Con respecto a los cuidados maternales, normalmente las abuelas son las que continúan desempeñando el rol de cuidadoras o madres sustitutas. Conclusiones: Este tipo de muertes, pueden generar sentimientos contradictorios, por un lado se vive el dolor por la ausencia del familiar fallecido y por otro, la alegría de un nuevo miembro. La familia vive una situación de duelo ante la muerte de alguien que trae y cuida la vida, considerada como una muerte trágica, prematura y evitable, por lo que la espera de recibir a un nuevo miembro es sustituida por una pérdida. Palabras clave: Mortalidad materna, familia, relaciones familiares, Colombia.   Family experience of maternal death Abstract Objective: Understanding and analyzing maternal death, approaching to the family reality by examining the experience of the family members of the deceased, and evaluating the change of roles and family dynamic. Materials and Methods: The research was made through study cases, using qualitative methodology; these were ten families that experienced maternal death in the last 5 years, and were attended in clinics and hospitals in de department of Tolima-Colombia. Results: Facing maternal death, families and each of their members become vulnerable. Having support from other family members, friends or neighbors, having a job, or belonging to a religious group or social support network, makes the situation less traumatic. Family relations in some cases are strengthened or worsened, particularly between the mother-in-law and son-in-law.  Regarding maternal care, grandmothers normally take the role of caretakers or substitute mothers. Conclusions: These types of deaths cause contradictory feelings, on one hand there is the pain for the absence of a dead family member and on the other, the joy of a new one. The family goes through a situation of facing the death of someone who brings life and cares for it. It is considered a tragic, premature, and avoidable death, consequently the longing of receiving a new family member is substituted by a loss.

AbstractInternational studies have shown effects of family relations on Internet addiction in young people. This research aimed to outline a discriminant profile of young people classified as dependent and not dependent on the Internet regarding to socio-biodemographic variables to parenting practices, parent-child conflict and interparental conflict. The sample consisted of 200 students (152 girls and 48 boys), between 15 and 24 years of age, 85.5% reside in Rio Grande do Sul and 14.5% in other Brazilian states. Participants responded individually to the protocol available online. The results showed that interparental conflict, parent-child conflict and the educational practice of supervision of paternal behavior discriminate dependents on Internet. The educational practice of maternal emotional support was the only discriminating variable for non-dependents. These national findings corroborate the international context studies and reinforce the importance of including the family in promotion and prevention of mental health of young people.

Modern societies are increasingly globalized, where information and communication technologies (ICTs) play a fundamental role in every aspect of daily life: from the social, family, labor, among others. Every day more people who without distinguishing age and gender are seen in the need and desire to have at least one technological device. Objective: To examine the impact of using ICTs in the family relations of the residents of Medellín city. Methodology: exploratory-descriptive research through a quantitative methodological design, a non-probabilistic sampling by criterion was made, where 77 people were selected. Data were collected through a questionnaire type survey with closed questions in a virtual way during 3 Months. Results: among the results, 73.4% of responders suggest that there is no adequate supervision of adults to guide children and adolescents to establish a critical position on these contents. On the other hand, the most valued resources are the mobile device and computer for the possibilities of communication between relatives that are far way and for being means to improve the educational and labor processes. Conclusion: studies around ICTs and their impacts have grown significantly, which it ratifies the importance of the topic. It is imperative that parents stop seeing ICTs as a distant entity, and try to be at the forefront of the uses of the same by children, to generate effective control in the training processes within the family.

The dynamic variability of the modern world determines not only the need to adapt but also the ability to preserve and maintain the values of separate culture. Over the centuries, family is considered to be one of the core values. Family interaction with the society is undeniable. The family is the foundation of any society and the future of the state. Today's new socio-economic situation has an impact on the emotional atmosphere, quality and relationships within the family. Criminological research in family relationships is a complex problem, its environment and circumstances are an important factor in the individual's socialization. The role of the family is equally important both in the process of proper behavioural shaping and in the production of directed behaviour. The article provides an insight into the content of the studies of family criminology.The aim of the article is to describe the criminological framework of family relations based on special literature, research and practice showing the framework of family criminology. Theoretical guidelines, special literature, views and opinions of Latvian and foreign specialists have been analysed in order to assess the criminological aspects of the phenomenon.The author concludes that the knowledge of family criminology is useful, effective, concrete and practically feasible for the criminological studies of the family institute. This approach has a multi-sectoral nature.

Recent attempts to announce the death of the family as a useful analytical category for sociologists are rebutted as being premature. The tendency to view household relations as family relations or, indeed, couple or gender relations as family relations seems to have arisen in the early 1970s. Earlier attempts to construct an empirically grounded analysis of family relationships have been curiously neglected. An account of one family on the Isle of Sheppey in Kent provides some illustrative ethnography on both the positive uses of family members – particularly siblings – and on the way the social boundaries of this family are constructed by its members. It is argued that the family is best understood as a system of relationships that change over time. There is a curious lack of systematic ethnography of contemporary family relationships so that what is taught to students as the sociology of the family may be widely at variance with their own personal experience. This may be partly a result of relying too much on random surveys of households at the expense of detailed explorations of existing patterns of social relationships and social meanings. Developing theoretical arguments on the basis of inadequate or inappropriate ethnography is evidently a dangerous and misleading exercise.

Abstract Objectives We evaluated clinical characteristics including adherence and its effects on overall survival (OS) in Korean patients diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) using National Health Information Database "NHID". Methods This study included patients 15 and older who were diagnosed with Philadelphia chromosome positive CML (ICD code C921) from 2005 to 2013 and prescribed with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). TKIs included imatinib, dasatinib, nilotinib and radotinib which were covered by the National Health Insurance Service (NHIS) currently.Patients who were received interferon, prescribed TKI only once, or prescribed TKI 6 months after diagnosis were excluded. We extracted age, sex, medical institution, medical insurance premium (which is imposed by proportionate to income), medication list, date of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), and date of death from NHID. Each patients' laboratory result or disease phase (chronic phase, accelerate phase, or blastic crisis) were not available. Medication possession ratio (MPR) was used for adherence. Overall Survival (OS) was calculated by Kaplan-Meier methods. As well as, univariate and multivariate analysis were done with Cox proportional hazard regression using SAS with following variables: Sex, age (≤50 years vs 50> years), income (high (upper 50%), low (lower 50%)), frontline TKI (imatinib vs others), and adherence (high (MPR ≥0.90), low (MPR<0.9)). Results A total of 3146 were followed up with a median of 69 (1-147) months until the end of 2016. Male was 60.2% (n=1899). Median age was 50 (16-92). More patients (n=1991, 62.9%) payed higher insurance premium. Imatinib was most frequently prescribed TKI (n=2764, 87.4%), then dasatinib (n=904, 28.6%), nilotinib (n=760, 24.0%), and radotinib (n=145, 4.6%) followed in orders. About two-thirds (n=2055, 65%) maintained frontline TKI until the end of follow up. Imatinib was selected as frontline TKI in 86.2% (n=3310), and 13.8% of patients chose newer generation TKIs. After TKI treatment, 7.7% of the patients received cytotoxic chemotherapy, and 19 patients underwent HSCT. Median MPR was 0.975 (0.003-2.035). A total 62% of patients (n=1966) showed high adherence. Male (p=0.036), young age (p<0.0001), high income (p=0.0002), using newer generation TKIs in the frontline (p<0.0001), and longer TKI treatment duration (p<0.0001) were associated with better adherence. Patients with low MPR performed chemotherapy (p<0.0001) or HSCT(p<0.0001) and expired (p<0.001) more than those with high MPR. Estimated OS at 5-year and 10-year were 84.7% and 75.3%, respectively. In univariate analysis, patients older than 50-years (HR 2.11 [95% C.I. 1.81-2.47] (Figure 1A) and low MPR (HR 6.34[95% CI 5.22-7.70] (Figure 1B) showed poor OS. In multivariate analysis, male, age >50, low MPR patients associated with poor OS showing HR 1.29 [95% C.I., 1.09-1.52], 2.98 [95% C.I., 2.49-3.58], and 6.13 [95% C.I., 5.04-7.45], respectively. Conclusion Based on NHID, estimated OS of 3146 Korean CML patients at 10-year was 75.3%, and female, age ≤50, and high MPR associated with better OS. Disclosures No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Today, many countries in the world are concerned about the well-being of pensioners, as their number is growing every year and pension systems cannot cope with ensuring a decent old age. The well-being of pensioners is part of the well-being of society, and the pension system is an institution for ensuring the well-being of pensioners. Therefore, it is important to understand the relationship between the financial well-being of older people and the country’s pension system. It is also important to understand that the family is an integral part of a person and therefore the well-being of each family member affects family relationships. This article is devoted to the assessment of the financial well-being of pensioners in Kazakhstan as a key factor affecting the family relations of a pensioner with partner, children, and grandchildren. Primary and secondary data were used for this study. The primary data were collected through interviews, which allowed us to obtain a subjective definition of financial well-being on the part of pensioners and its impact on family relations. This data was processed and encoded using the Atlas.ti program. Data from the Bureau of National Statistics made it possible to objectively assess the financial situation of Kazakhstani pensioners. The study found that the concept of financial well-being among Kazakhstani pensioners is more important for men than for women. Pensioners are not happy with their financial well-being, but this does not significantly affect their relationship with their families. The results of the study will allow us to assess the financial well-being of pensioners and can be used in the reform of social policy, pension provision of the country. Through the use of interviews financial literacy has been identified as one of the key factors, which depends on circumstances and the context.

Resumen:La sociedad actual ha transformado la estructura familiar; las familias diversas (monoparentales, ensambladas, homoparentales, etc.) ya no son la excepción. Aunque la legislación española atiende esta realidad, todavía no se aborda abiertamente en las aulas, como ocurre en otros países. La normalización de los nuevos modelos familiares debe de gestarse desde edades tempranas y el profesorado (en concreto su formación) es una pieza clave para garantizar el éxito. En este trabajo se presentan, en primer lugar, las ideas previas de los futuros profesores de Educación Infantil sobre la diversidad familiar. A continuación, se muestra el análisis crítico de los futuros docentes hacia dos instrumentos complementarios que favorecen el trabajo inclusivo: el árbol genealógico y el “familyme”. Por último, se discuten los resultados desde el punto de vista de la formación del profesorado y de una posible implementación en las aulas de infantil. Abstract:Modern society has transformed family structure. Diverse families are no longer the exception (single parents, homosexual parents, step families, etc.). Although Spanish legislation reflects this fact, it does not openly address it in the classroom as is the case in other countries. The standardisation of new family structures should be nurtured from a young age and teachers are a key element in guaranteeing that it is done successfully (especially through their training). Firstly, this study outlines the beliefs of future Early Childhood Education teachers on the subject of family diversity. The following critical analysis carried out by future teachers is set out regarding two complementary instruments which favour inclusive work: the family tree and the “familyme”. Lastly, results are discussed from a teacher training standpoint and from possible implementation within infant school classrooms.

Early experience, forms of behaviour that parents expressed towards a child and the family environment in which a child grew up have a significant effect on the formulation of attitudes, needs and interests that later on influence professional orientation and the choice of occupation (Roe, 1956).The research was conducted on a sample of 448 students from 6 different faculties and attempt to examine the possible connection between the quality of family relationships of the student and  his/her professional interests, evaluated through education type, i.e. through selection of the field of study.  The quality of family relationships were operationalized by the Family quality of interactions scale - KOBI (Vulić - Prtorić, 2004).The results indicated differences in the expression of family dimensions between students of different faculties. The students of detached, technical sciences have a weaker feeling of having their mother’s acceptance, while the individuals from the group of students with the strongest feeling of rejection from both parents choose the field of psychology for their studies. Our results indicate the existence of differences between the subsamples of students in their experience of the family that go beyond gender differences, and suggest the need for further, more detailed research which could discover deeper, inner initiators that guide an individual’s choice of profession.
