This study was carried out to investigate the self-reported health and eating habit of the elite female adolescent athletes in Incheon. The subjects were 102 elite female athletes of middle and high schools located in Inchon. A self-administered Questionnaire was used for this cross-sectional survey. Statistical analysis by two-way ANOVA was performed to discriminate between the main effects of age (as middle and high school athletes) and sports type, and their interaction. As use of nutritional supplements, 35.8% of the total subjects took vitamin and iron supplements and 62.5% of field and track athletes took vitamin and iron supplements. While mental stress related to exercise was much in fencing ＆gt; shooting ＆gt; field and track ＆gt; swimming athletes, physical burden during training was higher in swimming ＆gt; field and track ＆gt; fencing ＆gt; shooting athletes. More than half of the subjects showed irregular menstrual cycle. As the most severe problem of eating habit, they reported skipping meal ＆gt; overeating ＆gt; prejudiced meal ＆gt; preference to salty and spicy foods. More than half of the subjects skipped meal over three times per week. Fencing and shooting athletes showed very significantly higher frequency of skipping meal and more irregular breakfast time compared to those of other sport types. As for snack, they ate cookies, carbonated drink, chocolate, candy ＆gt; milk, yogurt, ice cream ＆gt; cake, bread, rice cake ＆gt; fried noodle ＆gt; hamburger, pizza. Therefore, nutritional counseling and education by sport type are necessary for health and good eating habit of these elite female adolescent athletes.

The purpose of the present investigation was to evaluate the effects of swimming training on response of lipid peroxide (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) enzyme activity of hyperlipidemic rats. Twenty-five male SD rats (6 weeks old) were randomly divided into a control group and 4 swimming groups after hyperlipidemia induction for 4 weeks through a 1% cholesterol diet. Swimming groups were then divided into unloaded swimming group, low-loaded swimming group, moderate-loaded swimming group and high-loaded swimming group by swimming intensity, and made to swim for 6 weeks (6 days/week). The loaded swimming group rats among the swimming groups swam a lead weight equivalent to 0%, 3%, 5% and 7% of body weight attached to the base of the tail. All data were expressed as mean and standard deviation by using an SPSS/$PC^+$ program, and to evaluate the differences between groups, data were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance and Duncan multiple range test (${\alpha}$=0.05) was performed to test the significant levels of differences between groups. The conclusions obtained from this study were as follows: 1) all swimming groups had significantly lower levels of MDA than the control group (p<0.001). Among the swimming groups, the moderate-loaded group had a significantly lower level than the unloaded group, low-loaded group and high-loaded group (p<0.001). 2) all swimming groups had significantly higher levels of SOD than the control group (p<0.01). Among swimming groups, the unloaded group, moderate-loaded group and high-loaded group had significantly higher levels than the low-loaded group (p<0.01).

While swimming is a very popular competitive sports activity, swimming injuries are unique due to the repetitive nature of the swimming stroke and demanding training programs that can result in upper limb overuse. Therefore, the primary objective of this review was to analyze swimmers' injury areas, injury types by stroke type, and swimming rehabilitation, as well as to discuss safety management for improving swimming performance. In this study, the injuries incurred in swimming events were discussed in the order of upper limb injuries (neck, shoulder, arm, and wrist), lower limb injuries (knee and ankle), and waist injuries. An analysis by stroke type found that shoulder injuries occurred most often with freestyle, backstroke, and butterfly strokes, followed by rotator cuff injury, impingement syndrome, and SLAP (superior labral tear from anterior to posterior) lesions. Knee injuries were associated with the breaststroke, whereas spinal cord injuries occurred with the breaststroke and butterfly stroke. Finally, back injuries were associated with the butterfly stroke. During the freestyle stroke, the shoulder undergoes repetitive overhead movement; hence, shoulder and musculoskeletal pain are the most common and well-documented complaints of swimmers. For safety management, coaches and instructors must ensure that athletes do sufficient warm-up and cool-down exercises to avoid injuries. In case of an injury, they should be familiar with first aid measures so that secondary damage can be prevented with its quick application. In addition, coaches and instructors need to be trained in injury prevention and treatment so that they can provide appropriate rehabilitation treatment for athletes. Although swimming-related injuries cannot be completely eliminated, to reduce them to a minimum, leaders need the knowledge to apply scientific and systematic training principles and methods individualized for each athlete.

하구는 강이 흘러 바다로 유입되는 지역으로 강의 담수와 바다의 염수가 만나는 강의 하류에 형성되며 지형, 담수의 유입, 해수의 조석 등에 의해 염분분포가 변화 하는 특성을 가진다. 또한 하구에 형성되는 하구역은 조수 간만의 차로 인한 상하운동이 일어남으로 인해 염분 농도는 0.5~30 ‰로 매우 광범위하게 나타난다. 하구는 해수가 미치는 최대 경계인 감조역과 해수와 담수가 혼합되는 기수역이 나타나며, 하구에서의 염분의 변화는 동 식물의 생존 및 분포, 수자원 확보 및 관리, 구조물 설치 등 공학적 분야에서도 매우 중요하다. 또한, 염수쐐기와 조석의 영향으로 하구의 수층에서는 담수 및 염분분포가 지점에 따라 다르게 형성이 되기 때문에 하천 수질측정 시 염수에 의해 대표성이 결여될 수 있다. 본 연구는 바다로 유입되는 수영강을 대상으로 염분분포의 특성을 고려하여 중권역 대표지점으로서의 적합성을 판단하고자 하였다. 수영강은 부산 용천산에서 발원하여 회동수원지를 거쳐 온천천과 합류하여 남해로 유입된다. 수영강에 위치한 좌수영교와 수영교에서 조석 간만의 차가 뚜렷하게 나타날 수 있는 대조기와 소조기에 연직 염분분포를 분석하여 하천수질 측정지점의 대표성을 판단하고자 하였다. 만조에서 간조로 수위가 변화 할 때 표층의 담수층이 옅어지는 현상을 보이며 소조기 보다 대조기에서의 담수층 변화 폭이 커지며 수질측정 시 고려하여야 할 것으로 판단된다.

말초신경은 외상이나 질병 등 여러 가지 원인으로 손상되기 쉬우며, 손상의 정도가 심하거나 치료가 지연되는 경우에는 심각한 기능 소실을 초래할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 수영이 말초신경손상후 운동기능의 회복과 뇌유인성 신경영양인자 (brain-derived neurotrophic factor, BDNF) mRNA의 발현에 미치는 효과를 알아보기 위하여, 흰쥐 좌골신경에 압박 손상을 가하고 수영을 적용한 후 보행궤적분석 (walking track analysis)과 역전사연쇄반응 (reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, RT-PCR)을 실시하였다. 그 결과, 좌골신경 압박손상된 쥐는 특징적인 보행패턴을 나타내어 좌골신경기능지수 (sciatic function index, SFI)가 현저히 낮아졌으며, BDNF mRNA의 발현이 증가하였다. 좌골신경 압박 손상후 수영을 한 쥐에서는 SFI가 현저히 향상되었으며, BDNF mRNA의 발현은 억제되었다. 이러한 결과는 말초신경손상후 수영이 BDNF mRNA의 발현을 조절함으로써 기능 회복을 촉진시키는 효과적인 치료방법이 될 수 있음을 제안하고 있다.

Effect of terrapin or snake extract on forced-swimming capacity and related biochemical parameters of SD rats was evaluated. Treatment groups were fed diet supplemented with 5% terrapin extract or 1% snake extract for 4 weeks. After adaptation for 1 week, each group was divided into two subgroups: one group swam for 90 min (90-min subgroups), and the other swam until exhaustion (all-out subgroups). No significant difference was observed in swimming time until exhaustion among the groups. After swimming for 90 min, contents of fatigue factors of serum such as lactate, inorganic phosphate, creatine kinase, and ammonia were not significantly different (p < 0.05) between control and treatment groups, including all-out subgroups, except for lactate concentration. These results indicated that terrapin or snake extract had little effect on forced-swimming capacity of rats.

The effect of supplementation with docosahexaenoic acid into n-3 fatty acid deficient diet on improvement of loaming related brain function was investigated. On the second day after conception, Sprague Dawley strain dams were subjected to a diet containing either n-3 fatty acid deficient (Def) or n-3 fatty acid deficient + docosahexaenoic acid (Def+DHA). After weaning, male pups were fed on the same diet of their respective dams until adulthood. Motor activity and Morris water maze tests were measured at 10 weeks old. In motor activity test, there were no statistically significant differences in moving time and moving distance between the Def and Def+DHA diet groups. The n-3 fatty acid deficient with DHA (Def+DHA) group exhibited a shorter escape latency, swimming time and swimming distance (P<0.05) compared to the n-3 fatty acid deficient group (Def) but there was no difference in resting time and swimming speed between the experimental diet groups. In memory retention trial, the number of crossing of the platform position (region A) was significantly greater than those of other regions for the Def+DHA group. However, the Def group swam randomly without preference for the provisions platform location, indicating poorer memory retention. From those results, supplementation with DHA into the n-3 fatty acid deficient diet improved the spatial loaming ability in rats as assessed by Morris water maze test.
