This study was performed to evaluate sleep efficiencies and conditions for comfortable sleep based on the analysis of EEGs and MST under four thermals conditions. Five female subjects who have similar life cycle and sleep patterns were participated for the sleep experiment. Their age was from 20 to 22 years old. They were healthy, and had regular sleep with consistent bed and wakeup time. It was checked whether they had a good sleep before the night of experiment. Experiments were performed in an environmental chamber of $4.1\times4.9\times2.7m$ size. EEGs were obtained from C3-A2 and C4-Al electrode sites. Sleep stages were classified, then TST, SWS latency and SWS/TST were calculated for the evaluation for sleep efficiencies on thermal conditions. As results, it was concluded that indoor thermal environments of $24\~26^{\circ}C$ was the best for comfortable and deep sleep.

The study was to evaluate the air-conditioning of sleep algorithm. The algorithm was developed through the analysis of brain waves and MST, the experiments using air conditioner was performed in a apartment bedroom. Five female subjects were participated for the experiment. Eight hours of data collection a day was performed under different algorithm, case A, case B and case C. Physiological signals, EEG, ECG, EOG, and EMG, were obtained using polygraph and converted into digital signal. Then, subjects were asked to answer the questionnaire about their thermal sensation after experiment in bedroom. Sleep stages were classified, then TST, Sleep latency and Sleep efficiency were calculated for the three different air conditioner algorithm. As results, TST, Sleep efficiency, questionnaire showed the higher values for Case B algorism than that for other algorism. On the other hand, SWS latency was lower than for other conditions. Therefore, it was concluded that Case B of the algorithm was the best for comfortable and deep sleep.

Standark polysomnograms, and questionnaires were measured using 4 subjects during simulated 150m heliox saturation dives. These measurements were performed on 4 pre-dive nights, 8 bottom nights, 6 decompression nights and post decompression nights. Sleep disturbances caused by frequent awakening were found throughout the dive period, but the disturbances were more intense on the second and fourth nights at the bottom and on the third and fourth nights of decompression. Stage 4 of sleep decreased every night at the bottom and from the first through third nights of decompression. The subjective self-evaluation of sleep was in agreement with the physiological variables. Complaints of subjective feeling of fatigue slightly increased throughout the dive period. It could be surmised that sleep disturbance or fatigue was not as significant under the 150m deep hyperbalic environment of He-O/ sub 2/ mixture, and therefore should be able to be coped with partially, through there moght be individual differences in adaptation.

We report a case of narcolepsy. A 25-year-old man has had excessive daytime sleepiness of about 10 years durations. He awakens daily feeling exhausted and continually falls asleep during the day while engaged in such situation like reading and watching television. He has exhibited cataplexy, a sudden loss of muscular tone, brought on by emotion, usually laughter. Polysomnogram revealed increased sleep stage 1, 2 and decreased deep sleep. Multiple sleep latency test (MSLT) showed that sleep latency was 1.33 minutes and there were 3 noted sleep onset rapid eye movement (SOREM) on 5 trials. The epworth sleepiness scale (ESS) was 17/24. Typing of HLA haplotype that was positive for the $DQB1^{\ast}0602$ allele, and hypocretin-1 (orexin A) could not be detected in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Brain MRI showed normal image. We diagnosed his case as narcolepsy based on history of cataplexy, and three occurances of SOREM, and positive of HLA haplotype.

Purpose : There are two types of sleep disturbance: inability to sleep (不眠) and somnolence (多眠). This study is to examine treatments of the two types of sleep disturbance in the Books of Cold Damage and how those theories were established and formed. Methods : 1. Verses including the words related to inability to sleep and somnolence were extracted from "Treatise on Cold Damage Diseases" (傷寒論). 2. Among the Books on Cold Damages that are classified according to the symptoms, 17 books with contents related to inability to sleep and somnolence were selected to collect and classify data in three perspectives: mechanism of disease (病機), method of treatment (治法) and disease pattern (病證). 3. Data collected through the above methods were compared and diagramed. Results & Conclusions : 1. On Cold Damage, inability to sleep is mostly rooted when human body lacks yin energy while having excessive yang energy (陽盛陰虛) due to fire and heat (火熱). The reason could be misuse of perspiration inducing method (汗法) or purgation (下法) on the doctors' part. 2. On Cold Damage, somnolence is rooted when pathogen (邪氣) is spread to yin meridians (陰經) and the human body lacks yang while having excessive yin energy (陰盛陽虛) or when heat (熱邪) is invaded into interior parts (裏部). 3. Many scholars of Cold Damage in later periods had copied the "Treatise on Cold Damage Diseases" for treatments of sleep disturbance but many others have applied the verses from "Treatise on Cold Damage Diseases" or added new treatments. Do jeol-am (陶節庵) and Wang Geung-dang (王肯堂) particularly had deep understanding on "Treatise on Cold Damage Diseases" and utilized the content freely or suggested new remedies because they had thorough knowledge on relating formula as well.

목 적: 인삼은 한국을 비롯한 아시아 국가에서 전통적으로 불면증의 치료에 사용되어 왔으며 쥐를 이용한 동물실험에서 수면을 촉진시키는 효과가 있다는 연구 결과가 있어왔다. 하지만 이러한 효과를 입증할 만한 임상 실험은 거의 이루어지지 않았다. 이에 본 연구에서는 고려 홍삼이 수면에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 한다. 방 법: 건강한 성인 남성 20명을 대상으로 하였으며 이들은 무작위로 홍삼군과 위약군에 배정되어 2주간의 실험이 진행되었다. 홍삼군의 경우 하루 4,500 mg의 홍삼을 섭취하였다. 실험 시작시점과 2주 후인 종료시점에 수면다원검사를 시행하여 두군간의 변수의 변화를 비교하였다. 결 과: 총 15명의 대상자, 즉 홍삼군 8명과 위약군 7명이 수면다원검사를 시행 받았으며 홍삼군이 위약군 보다 실험 종료 시점에서 3단계 수면이 증가한(p=0.087) 반면에 2단계 수면이 감소하는(p=0.071) 경향을 나타냈다. 결 론: 본 연구 결과는 고려 홍삼이 깊은 잠은 증가시키고 얕은 잠은 감소시키는 경향이 있음을 보여준다. 이는 통계적으로 유의한 결과는 아니지만 홍삼이 수면의 질을 향상시키는 데 효과적임을 짐작하게 한다. 그러나, 보다 많은 대상군과 충분한 홍삼 용량으로 보다 긴 기간 동안 진행되는 연구를 통해 고려 홍삼의 수면에 대한 효과를 확인할 필요가 있다.

It is necessary to control the room temperature for comfortable and deep sleep during a tropical night. We need to investigate thermal transport and parameter between human and environment for comfortable sleep. Therefore this study is performed to evaluate the comfortable room temperature based on the change of skin temperature under variations in thermal conditions and several reports. Five female subjects of 20~22 years with similar sleeping pattern were participated for the experiment. The subjects arrived in chamber at 9 pm and adapted to thermal circumstances during 2 hours. The sensors was sticked in body for skin temperatures. If subjects fall asleep in chamber, lights off and then sleep during 8 hours.As results, indoor temperature range for comfort sleep was $23.9{\sim}28.4^{\circ}C$ based on comfort mean skin temperature. But considering transition of time, minimum indoor temperature was $21.6^{\circ}C$, $22.9^{\circ}C$, $24.1^{\circ}C$, $23.9^{\circ}C$ and maximum indoor temperature was $28.2^{\circ}C$, $30.1^{\circ}C$.

Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a common sensorimotor disorder that is characterized by an urge to move the legs and peculiar, unpleasant sensations deep in the legs and its prevalence in the general population is between 3.2% and 15%. RLS significantly impairs patients' lives, often by severely disrupting sleep. However, both clinicians and patients under-recognize the RLS. RLS phenotypes include an idiopathic form and secondary form that is usually resulted from various causative conditions. The pathophysiology of RLS may be related with the dopaminergic system, which is closely linked to a number of psychotropic medications, including antidepressant and antipsychotics. Several antidepressants and antipsychotics have been shown to induce or exacerbate RLS. We need pay attention to the fact that commonly prescribed medications can be the cause of RLS.

The relationship between central nervous system (CNS) and enuresis has not been sufficiently elucidated despite the presence of several circumstantial evidences. Contrary to common belief, polysomnographic sleep analysis revealed that the disturbance of arousal rather than deep sleep was responsible for enuresis. Subsequent studies confirmed depressed sympathetic tone and retarded brainstem reflex indicating abnormal arousal threshold in enuretics. In accordance with the bladder-brain dialogue, chronic stimulation of bladder may modify the brainstem function elevating arousal threshold. Epidemiological studies have suggested the association between enuresis and various psychosomatic disorders like attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), which has shown the abnormal brainstem reflex similar to enuresis. Taken together, CNS is assumed to play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of enuresis. Psychological assessment is vital to understand the psychodynamic effect of enuresis. Studies have shown that the prevalence of psychological problems was higher in enuretic children and externalization of the symptoms was usually found. Several explanations have been brought up regarding the development of enuresis and psychological problems. Enuresis may cause psychological problems and vice versa. Otherwise, both may be associated with other variables, such as socioeconomic status (SES).
