This study aims to evaluate the effect of mobile healthcare service which was provided to employees diagnosed with hypertension in employee's health checkup. The study subjects were 146 employees and nurse measured their blood pressure, body mass index, and blood tests at the clinic in a workplace. The general characteristics of the participants were analyzed using descriptive statistics. After providing health care service using mobile text message for 8 weeks, blood test and blood pressure was measured. As a result, it was confirmed that blood pressure(SBP: 139.32±10.38 → 133.96±11.31, DBP: 98.13±6.21 → 94.28±8.56) and blood test(HDL: 47.90±9.79 → 51.40±9.79, HbA1C: 5.96±.66 → 5.65±.71) were more significantly reduced in 56 employees with a systolic blood pressure of 140 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure of 90 mmHg or more. It was confirmed that the program for self-management of blood pressure by receiving text messages on a mobile basis was effective. It is expected that the results of this study will be used as basic data for healthcare services that provide text information using mobile to improve drug usage, physical exercise, and eating habits.

Background: Pulmonary hypertension is one of the cardiovascular complications of in COPD. However, a diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension requires an invasive test, such as right heart catheterization. NT-proBNP is a cardiac hormone that is elevated when a cardiac volume or pressure overload is present. It was hypothesized that NT-proBNP might play a role in detecting of pulmonary hypertension in COPD patients. Method: The 31 COPD patients, who underwent all of NT-proBNP, echocardiography, and spirometry in Seoul National University Bundang Hospital during the period from November 2003 to July 2005, were retrospectively analyzed. Result: Of the 31 COPD patients, 9 patients had pulmonary hypertension. A significant positive correlation was observed between the NT-proBNP and pulmonary arterial pressure (r=0.589, p=0.002). However, there was no significant correlation observed between the $FEV_1$ and NT-proBNP and $FEV_1$ and pulmonary arterial pressure. Conclusion: NT-proBNP might indicate the presence of pulmonary hypertension in COPD patients.

K14 patient with chronic dyspnea, who is senile female, early had suffered from radical mastectomy, radiotherapy, autoplastic transplantation, and knee arthritis. Abnormalities of cardiopulmonary function such as obesita, hypertension, mild left ventricular hypertrophy, and chronic pulmonary disease were found from K14 patient's clinical datas, which based on medical history and diagnosis, as well as evaluation of blood pressure, obesity, clinical diagnosis, chest PA, electrocardiogram, ultrasonocardiograph, and spirometery test. Diagnostic results were exactly analyzed, also long-term cares of K14 patient were discussed with related to the clinical literatures.

A 7-year-old, intact male Pomeranian(weighing 2.2 kg), was presented with clinical signs of prolonged anorexia, polydypsia/polyuria, severe azotemia, proteinuria and heart murmur. Diagnostic studies found chronic kidney disease, severe hypertension and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. The dog was treated with 2-day peritoneal dialysis, blood transfusion, anti-hypertensive therapy with amlodipine and conservative therapies direct to chronic renal failure. This is a rare case of hypertensive cardiomyopathy complicated with chronic kidney disease in dogs.

This study attempted to explore the experience of patients' having hypertension and diabetes participation in health care. 11 chronic patients who regularly visited community health centers for more than a year participated in this study. The data was collected through individual interviews and analyzed by thematic analysis method. As a result, 6 sub-themes and 3 themes derived from the data. The themes were 'Trying to utilize short consultation time efficiently', 'Answering within narrow limits to healthcare provider', 'Being lack of continuous motivation for health care'. The result showed the need for nurses to provide accurate and sufficient health information and motivate patients in supportive manner to encourage chronic patients' participation in health care.

대사증후군이란 비만, 당대사이상, 고혈압 및 이상지질혈증과 같은 다양한 대사이상이 한 개인에게 중복되어 나타나는 상태를 지칭하는 것이다. 그러므로 대사증후군도 생활 습관병 중의 하나라고 생각할 수 있다. 대사증후군을 막을 수 있는 가장 경제적이면서도 효육적인 방법으로는 적절한 운동과 식사요법이라는 건강한 생활습관을 유지하여 적정한 체중을 유지하는 기초적인 건강수칙을 실천하는 것이 무엇보다 중요하다.

건강검진의 주 목적을 보면 암을 찾기 위한 것이 첫번째라면 심혈관질환의 위험인자라고 하는 당뇨병, 고혈압, 고지혈증, 비만 등을 찾는 것이 두번째 중요한 목적이다. 대표적으로 당뇨병을 예를 들어보면 당뇨병을 진단하기 위한 기준 126mg/dl 는 임의로 정한 기준이다. 5년전 만해도 140mg/dl를 기준으로 하였다. 어쩌면 10년 후에는 다른 기준을 사용할지도 모른다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the vasodilatation effect of kirenol isolated from Sigesbeckia pubescens on the rabbit basilar artery. In this study, to determine the vasodilatation effect of kirenol on the rabbit basilar artery, arterial rings with intact or damaged endothelium were used for the experiment. And used an organ bath and force transducer were contracted by endothelin. Kirenol, major active constituents of S. pubescens, showed a moderate vasodilatation effect on the basilar arteries of rabbits. Therefore, treatment with kirenol may selectively accelerate cerebral blood flow through dilatation of the basilar artery. This result suggests a potential role of kirenol isolated from S. pubescens as a source of vasodilatation agent.
