The study examined the effects of trunk pattern exercise in proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) integrated transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on the muscle activity and balance, walking speed in stroke patient. Thirty-one patients with hemiplegia due to stroke were assigned to either the experimental group (n=15) or control group (n=16). Both groups performed trunk pattern training in PNF for 3 times per week over a 6 week period for 20 minutes per session. The experimental group performed additional tDCS for 20 minutes. A comparison of the two groups after the intervention showed that the exercise program in experimental group had a more significant on the gastrocnemius, tibialis anterior and balance than the control group (p<.05). This showed that trunk pattern exercise in PNF integrated tDCS had a positive effect on the functional recovery of the lower extremity in stroke patients.

최근 새로운 바다 자원으로서 “해양 심층수”가 주목받고 있다. 해양 심층수(深層水, deep sea water)는 태양광이 도달하지 않는 수심 200 m 이상 깊이의 물로 수온이 2$^{\circ}C$ 이하로 연중 거의 변화가 없는 저온안정성과 무기 영양염을 다량 포함하는 특징이 있어 심층수의 활용도는 매우 높다. NaCl만 제거하면 훌릉한 생수가 되기 때문에 심층수를 원료로 한 식품, 화장품, 의약품 개발에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 미국, 일본 등지에서는 10여년전부터 심층수를 이용한 에너지, 수자원, 생수 및 식품 산업이 활발히 진행되어졌다. 현재 식품 산업분야로는 두부제조, 빵, 청주, 간장, 된장 등의 발효식품에 대한 연구가 진행되어지고 있다. 심층수를 적당하게 첨가하면 알코올 농도가 높아지는 발효강화작용이 있다. 새로운 건강 먹거리를 갈망하는 현대인들에게 해양 심층수를 이용한 발효식품은 매우 환영받을 것으로 사료된다. 이에 본 연구는 해양 심층수의 다양한 자원성을 효율적으로 활용하기 위해 심층수의 청정성과 풍부한 미네랄을 함유한 심층수의 농도에 따른 효모의 증식도를 알아봄으로서 적응력 강한 효모를 조사하였다. 실험에 사용한 해양 심층수는 淸凉飮料水(日本ナチュラルヘルス株式會社, 深透水 1550) 사용하였다. 효모균주는 경북과학대 전통식품 연구소에서 보유하고 있는 9종의 효모를 사용하였으며, 심층수 경도 250, 500, 1000의 심층수와 1차 증류수(대조군)에 sucrose 10% 첨가한 당용액을 사용하였다. 또한 당의 적응력을 알아보기 위해 sucrose 10, 15, 20% 첨가 당용액을 사용하여 Sacch.cerevisiae kluyvery DJ97 효모의 증식도를 알아보았다. 그 결과, Saccharomyces cerevisiae 12호 균주가 심층수 경도 500인 시험군에서 증식력이 높았으며, Saccharomyces cerevisiae 901 균주는 경도 1000인 시험군이 대조군에 비해 증식력이 높게 나타나 효모균주의 종류와 심층수의 첨가량에 따라 적응력이 차이가 있었다. 당농도와 심층수 첨가량에 따른 효모 균주의 발효력을 알아본 결과 심층수 경도 200의 당 10% 첨가군에서 가장 잘 증식하는 것으로 나타나, 알코을 효모균주의 발효력을 높이는데는 최적의 농도가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 심층수를 이용한 다양한 발효식품에 대한 연구가 요구되어진다.

Purpose:This study was conducted to identify the effects of theSemi-Fowler's position on post-operative recovery and pain for patients with laparoscopic abdominal surgery Methods: This study utilized a non-equivalent control group non-synchronized design to validate the effects of theSemi-Fowler's position. After IRB approval, 56 patients took part in this study, 29 in the experimental group and 27 in the control group. Consent was obtained from the participants. The Semi-Folwer's position was applied to experimental group and the supine position was applied to the control group for 24 hours after surgery. All data were reviewed retrospectively from April to June 2016. Collected data, frequency, percentage, average, standard deviation, chi-squared test, independent t-test and repeated measures ANOVA were conducted using SPSS 20.0. Results: There was no significant difference between the experimental and control group with regard to recovery outcomes; however, there was a significance differencebetween groups and among check times with regard to post operational pain. Conclusion:The results of this study provide information that will be usefulto the development of strategies for improving recovery outcomes and pain for laparoscopic operation patients.

Paddy fields are important habitats for maintaining the biodiversity of agricultural ecosystems. Recently, as the need for safe food and biodiversity conservation has increased, the rice cultivation methods have undergone changes. This study was conducted to investigate the fish fauna in Environmentally Friendly Paddy fields (EFP) and Conventional Paddy fields (CP), and compare the characteristics of Misgurnus anguillicaudatus and Aphyocypris chinensis populations in EFP and CP. A total of 2,703 fish were collected and classified into six families and 13 species. Our results showed that there was a difference in the proportion of fish populations in the two paddy fields, and the number of individuals in EFP was higher than in CP. The weight values of M. anguillicaudatus were higher in EFP than in CP, and the total length, body length, and weight values of A. chinensis were higher in EFP than in CP. Conditional factor(K) values also showed similar trends in EFP and CP. Our results indicate that the farming practices in paddy fields have a significant effect on the characteristics of M. anguillicaudatus and A. chinensis populations, and the results of this study can be used as basic data for securing biodiversity in future agricultural ecosystems.

The liver is the major target of ethanol toxicity and oxidative stress plays a role in development of alcoholic liver disease. This study was performed to investigate the effects of green tea extracts (GTE) on acute ethanol-induced hepatotoxicity in rats. Experimental animals were divided into 4 groups, control, GTE, ethanol, and GTE+ethanol treatment, with 5 rats in each group. Ethanol (6 g/kg body weight (BW)) and GTE (200 mg/kg BW) were treated by gavage. At 1 hour, 3 hours and 20 days (6 g/kg BW every 2 days for total 10 doses) after ethanol and/or GTE treatments, animals were killed; hepatic tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-$\alpha$) and glutathione level, serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST), serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), hepatic antioxidant enzymes (SOD, CAT, GPx) activities and hepatic thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) were measured. At 1 hour and 3 hours, hepatic TNF-$\alpha$ levels were increased significantly in ethanol group and ethanol+GTE group but that levels was significantly lower in ethanol+GTE group compared with ethanol group. Hepatic glutathione level was decreased by ethanol treatment but GTE prevented the ethanol-induced glutathione decrement. The levels of liver marker enzymes (AST, ALT), liver antioxidant enzymes (SOD, CAT, GPx) and lipid peroxidation marker (TBARS) were not changed in rats of 1 and 3 hours after ethanol treatment. After 20 days, GTE decreased the changes of liver marker enzymes (AST, ALT) activities and TBARS level by ethanol. This study shows that GTE beneficially modulates TNF-$\alpha$ and glutathione levels in liver of ethanol administered rats. The GTE supplementation could be beneficial to liver by decreasing early changes of biomarkers of liver damage caused by ethanol.

Purpose : To compare perinatal characteristics, clinical courses, and overall morbidity between respiratory distress syndrome(RDS) with patent ductus arteriosus(PDA) and RDS without PDA in neonates. Methods : Eighty-three neonates who were diagnosed and treated for RDS in the neonatal intensive care unit(NICU) from Jan. 2000 to Dec. 2002 were included in this study. RDS was complicated with PDA(group A) in 17 patients and not complicated in 66(group B). PDA was diagnosed by echocardiogram in neonates with congestive heart failure symptom, cardiac murmur or chest X-ray findings of cardiomegaly or pulmonary edema. A retrospective study was undertaken of the perinatal characteristics and overall morbidity in group A and group B. Results : The birth weight and gestational periods of group A were less compared with group B. There was more perinatal asphyxia in group A. Incidence of overall morbidity such as bronchopulmonary dysplasia, intraventricular hemorrhage and death was higher in group A. Intravenous indomethacin was administered in 17 PDA infants. Conclusion : The perinatal characteristics in the two groups showed a significant difference. Incidence of overall morbidity in the two groups showed significant differences, however, there is no simple conclusion to draw because we didn't do multifactorial analyses to rule out other many risk factors affecting morbidity, such as gestational weeks or birth weight.

The purpose of this study was to determine whether association exists between temporomandibular joint (TMJ) characteristics in transcranial radiographs and TMJ internal derangement and to evaluate the validity of transcranial radiographs in diagnosis of internal derangement. Transcranial radiographs and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of 113 TMJs from 76 subjects were used for this study and all TMJs were classified into 3 groups according to the results of MRI: normal disk position, disk displacement with reduction, and disk displacement without reduction. Transcranial analysis included linear measurement of joint spaces and condylar head angle measurement. To determine any relationship between transcranial measurements according to disk displacement, one-way ANOVA was used. The results showed that condyle-fossa relationship in standard transcranial radiographs had no relationships with disk displacement. And, as disk displacement progressed, condylar angle between head and neck increased significantly. This result can be interpreted that condylar head angle reflects structural hard tissue change according to internal derangement progress. But this is insufficient in the determination of internal derangement. Therefore, although still clinically helpful, the validity of standard transcranial radiographs to diagnose TMJ internal derangement was questioned.
