Purpose : There are many patients with cold hypersensitivity who want oriental medicine treatment. But there has been no study of acupucture treatment effect on patients. So we examined effects of acupuncture treatment at different acupuncture points and compared results of 1st cold stress test and 2nd cold stress test. Method : 8 patients with hand cold hypersensitivity applied for this study. To rule out an bias, we excluded the patients with skin diseases, spinal nerve disease of cervial spine, external wounds. We measured body temperature with D.I.T.I. We performed cold stress test(CST) by 6 thermographic observation using D.I.T.I ; the 1st was taken after 15 minutes-resting, the 2nd was immediately taken after 1 minute soak in $20^{\circ}C$ water, the 3rd was taken at 10 minutes after the soak, and after a week, the 4th was taken after 15 minutes resting, the 5th was immediately taken after 1 minute soak in $20^{\circ}C$ water, the 6th was taken after 10 minutes with acupunture treatment. There were two groups of patients. First group was acupuncture that performed acupuncture therapy on distal points. Second group was acupuncture that performed acupuncture therapy on proximal points. We compared first CST and second CST recovery rate result. Results : The recovery rate at distal points acupuncture therapy was higher than before of that. but not significantly different. The recovery rate at proximal points acupuncture therapy was significantly higher than before of that. The recovery rate of both the back, the palms, all fingers of after proximal acupuncture therapy was significantly higher than before of that. Conclusions : Acupuncture could be effective therapy method on cold hypersensitivity, especially using proximal acupuncture points could be good at cold hypersensitivity patients. This was pilot study of very small samples, results had limitations. For further results more examine would be needed.

Purpose : This study examined the effects of driving rehabilitation functional training on visual perception ability and driving reaction velocity. Those subjects were put under MVPT-3 test to see their visual perceptual functions before and after the 4weeks' driving rehabilitation function training and then put to TMT A-type test to see their driving reaction velocity performance. The followings are the results of this study. Methods : Using a driving simulator, driving rehabilitation functional training was performed targeting men and women aged in 20s 20 minutes per time, two times per week, for a month. Results : As for the change in visual perception, the Raw Score of MVPT-3 very significantly increased (p<.01), and the Standard Score also very significantly increased (p<.01). As for the change in reaction velocity, TMT A-type very significantly decreased (p<.01), and TMT B-type also very significantly decreased (p<.01). Conclusion : It could be found that driving rehabilitation functional training should be effective for both visual perception and reaction velocity. Consequently, the driving rehabilitation function training can be applied to clinics as training method for functional recovery and improvement of visual perceptual functions and driving reaction velocity performance ability of the patients. Thus, various functional programs should be studied in the future.

To evaluate training effect, the step exercise was loaded to three mem for nine weeks. Step score, cardiopulmonary functions and blood constituents were measured before, during and after the test exercise (50 cm-step exercise and treadmill running), and were compared with the pre-tranining values. The results were as follows: 1) By the training, Harvard step score increased remarkably, expecially in the early stage of training. 2) The post-training values of maximal oxygen uptake increased very significantly and it seemed to be due to increases of stroke volume and tissue oxygen extraction. 3) After the training, the degree of increase in expired volume was small during the treadmill exercise. 4) By the training, increasing rate of respiratory quotient lessened during the exercise and it was considered to be caused by the decreases of carbohydrate consumption and anaerobic metabolism. 5) The blood cholesterol concentrations were harldy changed with this degree of training. 6) The blood lactate level decreased during the recovery periods and the values of the recovery 0 and 5 minutes decreased remarkably, in comparison with the pre-trained values. The above results suggest that the 9 week-training of the step exercise brings about the enhancement of circulatory functions and tissue oxygen utilization, and changes of food-stuffs used during the exercise.

Background and Objectives: The skin barrier protects skin against a harmful environment. Its function includes an antimicrobial barrier as well as a physical barrier. Stress is harmful to the skin barrier and there are many studies on this, but there are few about the effect of stress during pregnancy on the skin barrier of offspring. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of stress during pregnancy on the skin barrier of offspring by examination with the naked eye, cortisol, weight, TEWL and histologic tests. Materials and Methods: Male hairless mice ten weeks old were coupled with females for three days. After twelve days the females were divided into two groups. We stressed one group and not the other group. The offspring from the non-stressed (N group) and stressed (S group) grew up until four weeks. The S group was exposed to chronic mild stress using the chronic stress model protocol modified method of Wilner and Towell for a week. We made examinations with the naked eye, assessment of cortisol, weight, TEWL, and histologic test to contrast the S group with the N group. Statistical analysis was performed by using Mann-Whitney and Friedman test. Statistical significance was achieved if the probability was less than 5% (p<0.05). Results: 1. By making an examination with the naked eye, S group showed papules, creases and dryness on their skin, but N showed no change compared with normal skin. 2. There was no statistically significant difference between S group and N group in cortisol (p>0.05). 3. There was no statistically significant difference between S group and N group in weight. N group had less weight than S group (p<0.05). 4. There was no statistically significant difference between S group and N group in TEWL (p>0.05). 5. There was no statistically significant difference between S group and N group in TEWL recovery (p>0.05). 6. In TEWL and TEWL recovery, there was statistically significant difference by time between S group and N group (p<0.005). Histologically, S group showed a thicker epidermis and epidermal crest than N group. Conclusions: We found that stress during pregnancy has negative effects on the skin barrier of offspring. Though there were no statistically significant differences between S group and N group in TEWL recovery, we found evidence that the recovery of skin barrier function is interrupted by stress during pregnancy by examination with both the naked eye and histology.

목 적：수면 결핍과 과도한 주간졸림증은 교통사고와 산업재해, 생산성 저하, 학습장애, 대인관계 문제 등의 심각한 결과를 초래할 수 있다. 이러한 부정적인 영향에도 불구하고, 수면 부족과 주간졸림증에 관한 역학 연구는 거의 없는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 얼마나 많은 사람들이 수면 결핍을 경험하고 있는지, 주말에 얼마나 많은 회복 수면이 일어나는지, 그리고 회복 수면량과 주간졸림증 간의 관련성에 대해 알아보고자 하였다. 방 법：164명(남 65명, 여 99명)의 지원자가 광고를 통해 모집되었으며, 이들은 서울에 거주하는 20세 이상의 직장인 및 대학생으로, 평균 연령은 남자 $33.4{\pm}11.64$세, 여자 $31.9{\pm}9.68$세이었다. 본 연구의 배제 대상은 60세 이상, 불면증이나 주간졸림증을 유발할 수 있는 의학적, 신경학적, 정신과적 장애와 수면장애가 있는 사람, 수면 스케줄이 불규칙한 사람, 최근 해외여행을 다녀온 사람, 출퇴근을 하지 않거나 교대근무자이었다. 연구 참여자들은 2주일간 매일 아침 수면일지를 작성하였고, 둘째 주 마지막 날 정오 무렵에 Epworth Sleepiness Scale(ESS)를 작성하였다. 모든 분석은 SPSS/PC+를 사용하였으며 t 검증, 카이제곱 검증, 또는 변량분석을 시행하였다. 결 과：본 연구의 결과는 참여자들이 평일에는 6시50분, 토요일에는 7시9분, 그리고 휴일을 포함한 일요일에는 8시 12분에 잠에서 깨었으며, 일요일에는 평일이나 토요일에 비해 더 빈번하게, 그리고 더 오랫동안 낮잠을 잔다는 사실을 보여주었다. 평일에는 야간 수면시간이 평균적으로 6시간 30분인데 비해, 주말에는 약 1시간이나 더 늦잠을 자는 경향이 있었다. 평일에 8시간 이상 수면을 취하는 사람은 연구대상의 9.1%에 불과하였고, 약 67%는 7시간보다 적게 잠을 잤으며, 49.4%는 일요일에 1시간 이상의 회복 수면을 보고하였다. 일요일에 회복수면이 2시간 이상인 사람들은 30분 이하인 사람들보다 유의하게 더 많은 주간졸림증을 호소하였다. 결 론：이러한 결과는 수면 결핍과 과도한 주간졸림이 한국 도시 성인에서 비교적 흔하며 평일에 수면이 불충분한 사람들은 일요일에 늦잠이나 낮잠을 잠으로써 수면 부족을 보충하려고 시도한다는 사실을 보여준다. 회복 수면량은 주간졸림증과 관련이 있으며, 수면 결핍은 축적된 효과를 가지고 낮시간의 졸리움을 증가시키는 것처럼 보인다.
