To demonstrate the clinical usefulness of electroencephalography (EEG) and factors increasing the usefulness of EEG, the authors evaluated each relationship between EEG related factors and clinical variables, and neuroimaging studies (CT and MRI)-related factors, and factors which are related with routine neurological examination for 207 patients who had been evaluated with both of EEG and neuroimaging study(CT or/and MRI). The results were as follows: 1) Abnormality of EEG findings had significant relationships with chief complaints, diagnosis, medication use, seizure attack, pathological reflex, and level of consciousness. However there were no significant correlations between abnormality of EEG findings and neuroimaging studies (CT and MRI)- related factors. 2) Laterality of EEG findings had significant relationships with abnormality, laterality, and focality of CT findings, and also with abnormality of MRI findings. But there were no significant correlations between laterality of EEG findings and clinical variables, and neurological examination-related factors. 3) Anterior-posterior distribution of EEG findings was significantly related with medication use. 4) Focality of EEG findings had significant relationships with sex, sensory dysfunction sign, and cerebellar dysfunction sign. But there were no significant correlations between focality of EEG findings and neuroimaging studies(CT and MRI) related factors. 5) Abnormal EEG pattern had significant correlations with various factors, such as age, chief complaints, duration from onset of symptom to taking MRI, seizure attack, abnormality and nature of lesion in CT findings, cortical atrophy in MRI findings, motor dysfunction sign, sensory dysfunction sign, and pathological reflex. 6) With abnormality on sleep activation, age, age of onset, seizure attack, ventricular enlargement in CT findings, and abnormality of MRI findings were significantly correlated. 7) With abnormality on hyperventilation activation, duration of illness and laterality of MRI findings were significantly correlated. Above results may suggest that abnormality of EEG findings is more closely related with functional change of the brain than structural changes of the brain and laterality of EEG findings is vice versa. And also that medication use has an influence on anterior versus posterior distribution of EEG findings and focality of EEG findings is not related with structural changes of the brain. Activation with sleep may be effective to show age differences and provocation of seizure activity and hyperventilation may be effective to detect the abnormal EEG findings by cerebrovascular insufficiency.

본 논문은 시각 정보로 인해 유발되는 어지럼증(Visually Induced Motion Sickness, VIMS)에 따른 뇌전도(EEG)와 활력 징후(vital sign)의 신체적 반응 및 유발 요인에 대한 분석에 대한 연구이며, 피험자 상태 기반의 동영상 모션 보정을 위한 선행 연구로 수행되었다. 이를 위해 어지럼증을 유발하는 동영상을 제작하여 총 11명의 피험자들에 대한 설문조사와 실험을 수행하였다. 동영상 제작을 위해 모션 벡터 추출 기법인 옵티컬 플로우(optical flow) 측정법을 이용하여 VIMS 유발 동영상으로부터 전역 모션을 추출하고 이를 모션이 없는 동영상에 적용하여 인위적인 모션을 갖는 동영상을 제작하였다. 실험 동영상은 콘텐츠 종류에 따라 영화, 텍스트 두 종류로 분류되며, 적용된 모션 강도에 따라 콘텐츠 별 세 편씩 총 여섯 편의 실험 동영상을 제작하였다. 피험자가 시청하는 동안 간이 뇌전도 측정기를 이용하여 실시간으로 뇌전도를 측정하였고, 이와 동시에 전자혈압계를 이용해 최고/최저 혈압과 맥박을 주기적으로 측정하였다. 측정된 뇌전도 신호는 채널 별 신호 간 상관도(correlation) 연산을 통해 얻어진 Distance Map(DM)을 활용하여 분석하였으며, 측정된 신체 반응 지수와 모션 강도 및 설문조사 결과와 관계에 대한 정량적 분석 및 분류를 수행하였다. 결과 분석을 통해 동영상의 모션 강도와 동영상 시청 전후의 신체 반응의 변화 정도에 따라 모션과 피험자가 느끼는 어지럼에 대한 상관관계를 분석하여 피험자를 특정한 그룹으로 분류할 수 있었다.

Ictal tachycardia and bradycardia are common arrhythmias; however, ictal sinus pause and asystole are rare. Ictal arrhythmia is mostly reported in adults with temporal lobe epilepsy. Recently, ictal arrhythmia was recognized as a major warning sign of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy. We present an interesting case of a child with ictal sinus pause and asystole. A 27-month-old girl was hospitalized due to 5 episodes of convulsions during the past 2 days. Results of routine electroencephalography (EEG) were normal, but she experienced brief generalized tonic seizure for 3 days. During video-monitored EEG and echocardiography (ECG), she showed multiple myoclonic seizures simultaneously or independently, as well as frequent sinus pauses. After treatment with valproic acid, myoclonus and generalized tonic seizures were well controlled and only 2 sinus pauses were seen on 24-hour Holter ECG monitoring. Sinus dysfunction should be recognized on EEG, and it can sometimes be treated successfully with only antiepileptic medication.

IEEE 802.15.6 표준 기술은 인체 내부 또는 근처에서의 근거리 저전력 무선 통신을 목적으로 제안되었으며, 대부분 맥박, 혈압, ECG, EEG 신호와 같은 인체 활력 징후(Vital Sign)를 데이터 형태로 전송하게 된다. 이러한 인체 활력 징후들은 대부분 실시간으로 전송되어야 하기 때문에 데이터 생성 후 허브 노드까지 전송이 완료되는 지연 시간이 중요한 성능 지표가 된다. 하지만 IEEE 802.15.6 표준 기술의 경우 데이터 재전송이 그 다음 수퍼프레임에 이루어지는 특징을 가지고 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 논문은 적응형 폴링 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안한 알고리즘은 슬레이브 노드가 데이터 전송에 실패할 경우 허브 노드가 현 수퍼프레임 내에서 할당 가능한 시간 구간을 찾아 슬레이브 노드에 이를 할당하여 현 수퍼프레임 내에서 재전송이 이루어지도록 한다. 성능 분석을 통해 제안한 알고리즘이 기존 IEEE 802.15.6 표준 기술 대비 트래픽 양이 70%일 경우, 수퍼프레임이 10ms, 100ms일 때 약 61%, 73%씩 지연시간을 감소시켰다. 또한 제안한 알고리즘은 재전송으로 인한 과부하적(Bursty) 트래픽 전송 현상을 차단하는 효과도 가지고 있다. 제안한 적응형 폴링 알고리즘을 통해 시간 민감형 인체 활력 징후 트래픽은 심각한 지연 없이 전송될 수 있다.

A single-blind comparative study was performed using haloperidol as a reference drug in order to evaluate the efficacy and safety of nemonapride, a new benzamide derivative, in sixty-nine Korean schizophrenic patients. the total period of the study was 8 weeks, maximum dosage of nemonapride was 36mg and that of haloperidol was 24mg. Psychopathology and extrapyramidal symptoms were assessed every week or four weeks until the end of the 8th week using the PANSS, BPRS, and 4 point general side effect check list, The drug safety was assessed every week until the end of the 8th week using vital sign, body weight, EEG, EKG, and blood chemistry. In total. one patient discontinued nemonapride treatment and seven patients discontinued haloperidol treatment before the end of the study. Therefore sixty-one patients(88 %) completed the study. PNASS and BPRS scores of the two groups on the end study point demonstrated a significant improvement compared with baseline score. The number of patients who had a clinical improvement of at least 20% in baseline score was similiar in both treatment groups. The difference of Simpson's rating scale socres were significant in both groups, and mean scores were more high in the haloperidol group than in nemonapride group. No significant EKG, EEG changes were induced, no relevant change in body weight or clinical laboratory parameters were observed in the sixty-one patients during 8 weeks and no Significant difference in the both groups. From these results, nemonapride is considered to be a clinically useful drug having a wide range of antipsychotic effect in schzophrenic patients.

Bibliotherapy is the field of clinical counceling to treat the emotional, psychiatric and social maladjustment. Neurofeedback is a means by which participants can team voluntary control of the EEG and has been applied to a range of clinical conditions such as epilepsy, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, depressive disorder. 'Ul-zeong' comes from obstruction of qi by stress. The mind affect the body. The patient has depressed mood, irritable sign, chest discomfort, flank pain, angry state and some strange feeling on the throat. In this case, a female patient, 30 years old, who complained of amnesia, deficiency of the power of the attention and concentration depersonalization, depressed mood, insomnia ect. We treated the patient with bibliotherapy, neurofeedback and oriental medical treatment such as heral medicine, acupuncture treatment and aroma therapy. In result, the symptoms which she complained were improved.

1. Objective This study was performed to research the biological change of forest healing according to Sasang constitution. 2. Methods Forty seven applicants are involved in this study. They were classified into three groups(Soyangin, Taeeumin, Soeumin) by QSCC II. And then they participated in forest healing program from March 26 to March 27 in 2011. We performed before and after experiment, including vital sign, electroencephalography(EEG), heart rate variability(HRV), complete blood cell count(CBC), biochemical test(BC), and stress hormones. 3. Results Men had the relaxative effect of tension. While, the group of women and Soyangin was more sensitive to sudden environmental change than the group of men or other constitutions. The tension of women and soyangin's group increased after the forest healing program. Soeumin group showed reduced diastolic blood pressure after the forest healing program. 3. Conclusions Forest healing program has shown better efficacy in relaxation in men than women, in lowering diastolic blood pressure in Soeumin group than other constitutional groups. However a single positive result within this study should be carefully interpreted.
