Objective : The aim of this research was to investigate the depressive effect of acupuncture on Dong and depletion on Fungchi-point(G20) in stroke patients. Methods : We measured the blood pressure of the patients who were admitted in the Oriental Medical hospital of Dongeui medical center from 21. Dec. 2001. to 2. Oct. 2002. 41 stroke patients were devided into two groups. 15 patients were treated by acupuncture on Dong. The other 26 patients were treated by depletion on Fungchi-point(G20). The activity of daily living was measured. If systolic blood pressure was over 160 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure was over 90mmHg, acupuncture on Dong and depletion on Fungchi-point(G20) were performed. Then 30 minutes and 60 minutes later, systolic. diastolic blood pressure and pulse rates were measured. Results : After 30 minute of treatment, both acupuncture on Dong and depletion on Fungchi-point(G20) significantly depressed systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure. After 60 minute of treatment, both acupuncture on Dong and depletion on Fungchi-point(G20) were significant in depressing systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure. Pulse rates significantly changed in depletion on Fungchi-point(G20) but did not significantly change in acupuncture on Dong. Conclusions: These results suggest that both acupuncture on Dong and depletion on Fungchi-point(G20) are effective in depressing systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure.

This study is to evaluate the availability of cardiorespiratory fitness measurement by 20 m shuttle run test based upon energy contribution rates of elite athletes in different sports type. Sixty-seven elite athletes attending K national university participated in this study. They were divided by three groups based upon sports type, composed of Anaerobic Group (sprint, jumps, weightlifting, throw; n=35), Aerobic Group (medium-long distance; n=9), and Combat Sport Group (judo; n=23). 20 m shuttle run test was conducted by Leger et al.(1982) method and calculating acceleration using measured shuttle run repetitions was conducted by Brewer et al.(1988) method. To test the usefulness of VO₂max, graded exercise treadmill test was conducted and standing long jump and 50 m run were measured as power fitness factors. Z-jump was used for measuring power, agility, and muscular endurance. Standing long jump and 50 m run of Anaerobic Group (AnG) was significantly higher than that of Aerobic Group (AeG) and Combat Sport Group (CG) (p<0.05). However, Z-jump of CG was significantly higher than that of AnG and AeG(p<.05). There was a higher correlation of 20 m shuttle run test and VO₂max in AnG(r= 0.577, p<.0001) and CG(r= 0.760, p<.0001). Otherwise, there was a low correlation of 20 m shuttle run test and VO₂max in AeG. There was no significant group difference to test the availability of 20 m shuttle run test and there was a reduced error when converting 20 m shuttle run results into VO₂max. This study examined the usefulness of 20 m shuttle run test by converting 20 m shuttle run repetition results into VO₂max calculation, which showed reduced error. Therefore, this study confirmed that it would be needed to convert 20 m shuttle run results into VO₂max for universal and practical use in the field without dividing sports type.

The new 5G radio technology (NR) can provide ultra-reliable low latency communications. The supporting 5G network infrastructure will move away from the previous point-to-point network architecture to a service-based architecture. 5G can provide three new things, i.e., wider channels, lower latency and more bandwidth. These will allow 5G to support three main types of connected services, including enhanced mobile broadband, mission-critical communications, and the massive Internet of Things (IoT). In 2015, the 5th generation (5G) mobile communication was officially approved by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) as IMT-2020. Since then, 3GPP, the international organization responsible for 5G standards, is actively developing specifications for 5G technologies. 3GPP Release 15 provides the first full set of 5G standards, and the evolution and expansion of 5G are now being standardized in Release 16 and 17, respectively. This paper provides an overview of 3GPP 5G technologies and key services.

Effect of cell density on the xylitol production from xylose by Candida parapsilosis KFCC 10875 was investigated. The concentrated cells were obtained by centrifugation of culture broth. The xylitol production rate was maximum at the cell concentration of 20 g/l and the specific xylitol production rate decreased when the cell concentration was increased due to oxygen limitation. Effect of the initial concentration of xylose on the xylitol production was also examined using the concentrated cells of 20 g/l. The xylitol production rate, specific xylitol production rate, and xylitol yield from xylose were maximum at 170 g/l xylose. Above 170 g/l xylose, the xylitol production rate was remarkably decreased. The concentrated cells could also be obtained by adjusting the dissolved oxygen (DO) during fermentation. The rapid accumulation of cells up to 20 g/l was achieved by maintaining an increased level of DO during the exponential growth phase and then, for the efficient xylitol production, the DO was changed to a low level in the range of 0.7-1.5%. A fed-batch fermentation of xylose by adjusting the DO level was carried out in a fermentor and the final xylitol concentration of 140 g/l from xylose of 200 g/l could be obtained for 56 h fermentation.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the antioxidant contents and antioxidant activities of solvent fractions from methanolic extract of sericea lespedeza. To determine the antioxidant compounds in solvent fractions from methanolic extract, total polyphenolic, flavonoid, tannin, and proanthocyanidin contents were measured by spectrophotometric methods. Solvent fractions were evaluated for antioxidative capacity according to DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities. Total polyphenolic contents were 12.44, 3.61, 6.39, 27.11, 20.00, and 9.32 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/g extract residue (ER), respectively. Total flavonoid contents were 2.94, 9.92, 7.77, 9.27, 5.11, and 2.66 mg catechin equivalent (CE)/g ER, respectively. Total tannin contents were 8.75, 10.04, 7.42, 17.32, 11.65, and 7.61 mg tannic acid equivalent (TAE)/g ER, respectively. Total proanthocyanidin contents were 346.09, 63.50, 103.76, 288.62, 231.99, and $358.48{\mu}g$ CE/g ER, respectively. DPPH radical scavenging activities of solvent fractions from methanolic extract of sericea lespedeza were 20.62, 5.16, 9.29, 20.80, 20.00 and 20.79 mg Trolox equivalent (TE)/g ER, and ABTS radical scavenging activities were 33.86, 9.24, 17.36, 33.76, 33.49, and 33.86 mg TE/g ER, respectively. SOD-like activities were 4.12, 0.61, 2.01, 9.89, 13.47, and 11.82 units/mL, and ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibition activities were 93.85 and 61.64% at concentrations of 50 and $25{\mu}g/mL$ in the water fraction, respectively. The results of this study show that notable antioxidant activities in sericea lespedeza have significant health benefits.

Purpose : Glycogen storage disease type Ia(GSD Ia) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by the deficiency of glucose-6-phosphatase(G6Pase). The aim of the study was to investigate the spectrum of G6Pase gene mutations and relationship between genotype and clinical findings in Korean patients with GSD Ia. Methods : Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral leukocytes of 20 patients with GSD Ia. The five exons of G6Pase gene were amplified and PCR products were directly sequenced. The frequency of short stature, hypoglycemia, hypercholesterolemia, hyperuricemia, hypercalciuria, nephrocalcinosis and hepatic adenoma was compared between 727G>T homozygotes and 727G>T compound heterozygotes. Results : A total of 5 different mutations were identified. The most common mutation was the 727G>T with an allele frequency of 80%. All patients were either homozygous(12/20) or heterozygous(8/20) for the 727G>T mutation. G122D was found in 3 patients, P178A in 1, G222R in 2, and S339R in 2. There was no difference in the frequency of short stature, hypoglycemia, hypercholesterolemia, hyperuricemia, nephrocalcinosis, and hepatic adenoma between 727G>T homozygotes and heterozygotes. Conclusion : Diagnosis of GSD Ia can be based on clinical and biochemical abnormalities combined with mutation analysis instead of enzymatic diagnosis that requires liver biopsy. Homozygosity for the 727G>T does not seem to alter the disease phenotype as compared with the heterozygous state.
