The first study analyzes the aeromedical consultation outcomes for Korean military flight crews diagnosed with malignant tumors. It highlights the increasing incidence of cancers such as thyroid and lung cancer, underscoring the need for regular health check-ups and thorough aeromedical evaluations. The second paper addresses the significant fatigue experienced by air operations control officers due to shift work. It suggests restructuring shift schedules to ensure adequate rest and maintain performance. The third study explores the effects of low-dose radiation on cognitive functions, suggesting potential benefits such as improved cell repair mechanisms, though it also calls for cautious application due to ongoing debates. The fourth paper examines the operational environment for urban air mobility, emphasizing the need for robust air traffic management systems and addressing vertical take-off and landing challenges. Lastly, the fifth study compares Korea’s aircraft maintenance personnel qualification system with international standards, recommending the adoption of competency-based training to enhance educational quality. Together, these studies contribute valuable insights and potential solutions for advancing aerospace and environmental medicine. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This issue of Volume 34, Issue 1 contains 5 papers, 3 original articles, 2 review articles, and 0 case report. By subject, there were 0 papers on Aerospace Medicine, 5 on Aviation Human Factors, and 0 on Aviation Nursing. The first paper investigated the effect of self-management competence on social anxiety among students in an aviation program at a college, based on a survey of 90 students. Conducted with careful consideration of student anonymity, this study found that higher self-management competence are associated with lower social anxiety. The second paper explored the introduction of a pre-safety assessment and consulting system in the aviation industry, gathering and analyzing opinions from professionals through an online survey. The third study analyzed air traffic control threats and their impact, using data collected from Line Operations Safety Audits, and presented statistically significant findings. The fourth paper focused on fatigue management strategies for shift workers in air traffic control, reviewing related domestic and international laws and regulations and emphasizing the need for effective fatigue management. Lastly, the fifth paper discussed the characteristics of low-cost carriers and their ripple effects on the air transport market, examining both positive and negative aspects. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
