  • Background and Objectives: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between between one's quality of life (QoL) level and the arterial stiffness estimated by the second derivative of photoplethysmogram (SDPTG) for women patients. Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed on charts of 407 women patients (38.38±11.82 years) who visited Gangdong Kyung Hee Hospital between April 1st and September 30th, 2011. Vascular aging index (VAI, (b-c-d)/a), b/a, c/a, and d/a were considered as the arterial stiffness indexes, and the Korean version of the Short-Form 36 (SF-36) were completed to estimate one's physical and mental QoL. Results: Physical and mental components of the SF-36 in older group (50, 60, and 70 years-group) were lower than those in younger group (20 and 30 years-group). Large arterial stiffness-related b/a in older group was higher that in younger group, while small arterial stiffness-related d/a in older group was lower that in younger group. Physical and mental component scores of the SF-36 had the negative correlations with VAI and b/a (r; -0.153~-0.195), while had the positive correlations with c/a and d/a (r; 0.147~0.228). Conclusions: In conclusion, this study suggests that convenient and cost-effective SDPTG test may serve as an auxiliary tool to estimate one's physical and mental QoL.

  • Objectives: To investigate the different effects of Sa-Am acupuncture with Spleen Jung-gyuck and Spleen Seung-gyuck on the radial pulse in healthy subjects. Methods: Sixty healthy volunteers (30 males and 30 females) participated in this study. The participants were randomly divided into three groups: control (C), Sa-Am acupuncture with Spleen Jung-gyuck (SP+) and Sa-Am acupuncture with Spleen Seung-gyuck (SP-). The radial pulse was measured using a multi-step tonometry system before, and 0, 30 and 60 minutes after acupuncture. Results: The heart rate adjusted radial augmentation index (RAI/HR) and high-tensioned pulse area (W area) significantly increased in the SP- group compared to the C and SP+ groups in males. The systolic pulse period (T4) increased significantly in the SP- group compared to the C and SP+ groups in females. The RAI/HR had positive correlations with W area and T4. Conclusion: The effects of Sa-Am acupuncture with Spleen Jung-gyuck and Spleen Seung-gyuck are different. Sa-Am acupuncture with Spleen Seung-gyuck induces acute increases of radial pulse parameters related to arterial stiffness in healthy subjects.

  • Cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors may be acting several decades before CVD becomes manifest. Data from young subjects may be valuable in further elucidating at this issue. We evaluated the association between baPWV (brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity) and cardiovascular risk factors in apparently healthy young adults. A total of 46 male and 91 female adolescents aged $18{\sim}25 years$ were studied. baPWV increased in a dose-responsive manner as the number of metabolic syndrome components. In both gender groups, baPWV was positively correlated with age. In males, waist, circumference total cholesterol, and LDL-cholesterol were positively correlated with baPWV, and in females, blood pressure (BP) was positively correlated with baPWV. Age, gender, mean BP, and Homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) were found to be independent factors associated with baPWV levels. In conclusion, mean BP, age, gender, and HOMA-IR were associated with baPWV in young adults. This result suggests that multiple cardiovascular risk factors may be associated with an increased risk of arterial stiffness in young adults.

  • [Purpose] Aerobic exercise training (AT) reverses aging-induced deterioration of arterial stiffness via increased arterial nitric oxide (NO) production. Asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA), an endogenous inhibitor of NO synthase, was decreased by AT. However, whether AT-induced changes in ADMA levels are related to changes in nitrite/nitrate (NOx) levels remains unclear. Accordingly, we aimed to clarify whether the relationship between plasma ADMA and NOx levels afected the AT-induced reduction of arterial stifness in middle-aged and older adults. [Methods] Thirty-one healthy middle-aged and older male and female subjects (66.4 ± 1.3 years) were randomly divided into two groups: exercise intervention and sedentary controls. Subjects in the training group completed an 8-week AT (60%-70% peak oxygen uptake [${\dot{V}}O_{2peak}$] for 45 min, 3 days/week). [Results] AT signifcantly increased ${\dot{V}}O_{2peak}$ (P < 0.05) and decreased carotid β-stifness (P < 0.01). Moreover, plasma ADMA levels were significantly decreased while plasma NOx levels and NOx/ADMA ratio were significantly increased by AT (P < 0.01). Additionally, no sex diferences in AT-induced changes of circulating ADMA and NOx levels, NOx/ADMA ratio, and carotid β-stifness were observed. Furthermore, the AT-induced increase in circulating ADMA levels was negatively correlated with an increase in circulating NOx levels (r = -0.414, P < 0.05), and the AT-induced increase in NOx/ADMA ratio was negatively correlated with a decrease in carotid β-stifness (r = -0.514, P < 0.01). [Conclusion] These results suggest that the increase in circulating NOx with reduction of ADMA elicited by AT is associated with a decrease in arterial stiffness regardless of sex in middle-aged and older adults.

  • 본 연구에서는 심혈관 질환의 위험 인자인 고혈압, 이상지질혈증 및 당뇨병이 없는 건강한 성인 남·녀를 대상으로 3축 가속도계를 이용하여 일주일간의 평소 신체활동량을 평가하고 동맥경화지표와의 연관성을 알아보고자 하였다. 가속도계를 이용한 신체활동 측정 결과, WHO 신체활동지침 준수율은 29.9%, 좌식 행동에 소비한 시간은 531.1 min/day, 저강도 활동에 소비한 시간은 281.4 min/day, 중·고강도 활동에 소비한 시간은 36.2 min/day 이였다. 활동 수준이 다른 두 군의 신체활동을 비교한 결과, CPM, 중·고강도 활동에 소비한 시간, 중·고강도 활동을 10분 이상 지속한 횟수 및 시간은 활동군이 비활동군에 비해 유의하게 높았다. 좌식 행동에 소비한 시간은 활동군이 비활동군에 비해 유의하게 낮은 반면 좌식 행동 패턴 및 baPWV와 ABI는 두 군 간에 유의한 차이가 없었다. 그러나 여자에서는 좌식 행동을 60분 이상 지속하는 횟수와 baPWV 간에 양의 상관관계가 나타났으며 좌식 행동을 50분 이상 지속하는 횟수와 ABI 간에 음의 상관관계를 보였고, 저강도 활동에 소비한 시간과 ABI 간에는 양의 상관관계를 보였다. 이는 좌식 행동을 50분 이상 지속하는 횟수가 많을수록 동맥경화 및 말초 동맥질환의 위험이 높고 저강도 활동에 소비한 시간이 많을수록 말초동맥질환의 위험이 낮음을 보여주었다. 향후 동맥경화 예방을 위한 지침 마련을 위해 다양한 연령대의 건강한 성인을 대상으로 신체활동과 함께 식품 및 영양섭취 현황, 식사 패턴, 음주 행태 등 동맥경화와 관련된 요인들이 포함된 연구의 필요성을 제안하는 바이다.
