많은 역학조사에서 두발을 이용하여 체내 중금속 오염 정도를 알아보는 방법이 유용한 것으로 보고 있다. 본 논문에서는 61구의 부검체를 이용하여 다변량기법으로 두발과 장기의 수은 및 카드늄 축적정도를 측정하여 상호간 관련성을 밝히고자 하였다. 그 결과 수은의 경우 두발에서의 축적정도와 2차 축적장기와는 통계적으로 유의한 상관성이 있는 것으로 나타났다.

Objective : Infection is one of most devastating complications in ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt surgery. Preoperative hair removal has traditionally been performed to reduce infectious complications. We performed VP shunt surgeries and evaluated the prevalence of infection in patients who were shaved and those who were unshaven. Methods : A retrospective analysis was conducted of 82 patients with hydrocephalus of various pathologies who underwent VP shunt surgery, with or without having the head shaved, between March 2010 and March 2017. For patients in the non-shaved group (n=36), absorbable suture materials were used for wound closure, and Nylon sutures or staples were used in the shaved group (n=46). We evaluated the infection outcomes of patients in the two groups. Results : There was no difference in the average age of patients in the two groups. In the non-shaved group, there were no infections, while two patients in the shaved group required revision because of shunt infection. Conclusion : Non-shaved shunt surgery may be safe and effective, with no increase of infection rate. We recommend that shunt procedures could be performed without shaving the hair, which may increase patients' satisfaction without increasing infection risk.

Several heavy metals are known to give some kinds of mental retardation although abnormal X-chromosome is closely connected with genetic disease such as mental retardation. This study dealt with the influence of minerals in the hair of mental retardation people. Minerals were analyzed by Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer (Sciex Elan 6100, Perkin-Elmer corporation, Foster, CA, USA). The nutritional elements such as Ca, Na, K were higher level (p<0.01) in normal group than in the mental retardation group. The toxic elements such as Cd (p<0.01) and As were higher level in the mental retardation group than in normal group. But Pb is not significant difference among the all groups including normal group.

This dissertation has been intented to grasp the components of personal colors and classify personal colors. The Method of the study was quasi-experimental. In the experiment to evaluate personal colors, the subjects was 315 male and female college students in Taegu and Kyungbuk area. The evaluations were analyzed by SAS and the methods used were descriptive statistics, cluster analysis, T-test. The results obtained were as follows: First, the major components of subjects personal colors were found to be the colors of skin and hair. Secondly personal colors were classified into three types: warm, cool, and ambiguous. Third types of personal colors tended to be different between men and women.

The fiber morphologies of the textiles from the burials of the Seip group of Ohio Hopewell (ca. 100 B.C. to A.D. 500)mounds were examined using light and scanning electron microscopy. A theoretical model was proposed which delineates the rate of morphological change in fibers through time and the cultural activities which occur during the life of a textile element. The Seip textiles were categorized according to their visual and structural characteristics. The microscopic examination of the Seip textiles yielded the evidence of animal hair fibers and bast fibers. The animal hair fibers of the seip textiles were identified as the hair of rabbit or hare. The bast fibers of the Seip textiles exhibited variation in morphological features such as the degree of bundle separation and the presence of transverse striations, fibrillations, or trans-verse cracks.

An atomic absorption spectrophotometry analysis study of zinc, cadimium, lead, copper and mercury in human scalp hair samples of 699 subjects in 3 urban and 4 rural communities gave mean values of 170.33/187.00 ppm, 0.18/0.22 ppm, 8.43/8.62 ppm, 9.81/10.24 ppm and 2.13/1.20 ppm for male and female, respectively. The concentration did not differ significantly regardless ages. However, female was higher than male in overall concentration except that of mercury. The percentile methods was partially applied for a reference values of metals in Korean scalp hair to provide more appropriate data for further comparisons.

The effect of oral iron supplementation was assessed on blood iron levels and Pb and Cd levels in erythrocytes, hair and urine of 101 Puchon 5th grade school children with suboptimal iron status. Treatment with 25mg of elemental iron per day for 8weeks resulted in a significant increase in the intake of most nutrients in addition to iron. Iron supplementation resulted in significant improvements in hemoglobin, MU, MCH, MCHC, serum ferritin, serum iron, TIBC, and transferrin saturation of subjects(p<0.05 - p<0.01) and cocomitantly lowered Pb and Cd levels in erythrocytes, hair, and urine(p<0.01). Regression analysis showed that only iron intake contributed to significant increases in hemoglobin and serum ferritin. It seems that 25mg of iron supplementation is safe and adequate to improve iron status in school children with suboptimal iron status and it also has the benefit of alleviating Pb and Cd status.

Objectives : The aim of present study was to investigate the skin characteristics of twenty-five healthy Korean subjects. These results can be used as basic data for the development of future herbal applications. Methods : Skin type, hair and scalp condition, water content, sebum content were investigated through the measurement of skin conditions and subjective questionnaire survey to know the skin characteristics of subjects. Results : Most of subject has 'Dry Skin' and they have trouble about their keratin(dandruff), scalp itching, alopecia, hair texture, scalp moisture. Conclusions : More studies are needed to investigate the skin characteristics of healthy Korean subjects.

The qualitative and quantitative analysis of MDMA and MDA in hair samples by GC/MS were reported. Hairs were collected from subjects aged 22-37 years, who were suspected of abusing MDMA. After washing with methanol, hair samples were cut into small pieces, extracted with methanol containing 1 percent hydrochloric acid for 20th, and the solution was evaporated. MDMA or MDA in the extract were determined by GC/MS using selected ion monitoring after derivatization with trifluoroacetic anhydride. (omitted)

예전부터 치약이 모발성장을 촉진시킬 수 있는 잠재력을 갖고 있다고 제안되어 왔지만 발모효과에 대한 과학적 검증과 치약 내 주요 활성성분에 대한 연구는 보고된 바가 없다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 치약을 이용하여 피부 각질세포의 성장 및 C57BL/6 마우스의 제모된 등쪽 피부에 국소적으로 적용하여 모발의 성장 촉진 여부를 평가하였다. 본 연구 결과 치약의 구성 성분으로서 문헌에서 발모 효과가 있다고 알려진 𝛼-tocopherol acetate와 l-menthol, stevioside 혼합액과, 이들을 제외한 치약 조성 성분들의 혼합액을 각각 두 그룹의 C57BL/6 마우스의 제모된 피부에 국소적으로 적용한 경우, 치약 성분의 혼합액은 발모효과를 보이지 않았고, 𝛼-tocopherol acetate과 l-menthol, stevioside 혼합액이 포함되었을 경우에는 마우스에서 발모 효과가 나타났다. 따라서, 치약을 구성하는 보조성분들인 α-tocopherol acetate과 l-menthol, stevioside 혼합물은 in vivo에서의 모발성장에 있어 잠재력을 갖고 있음을 확인하였다. 또한 치약을 처리한 그룹의 마우스와 발모 유효 성분으로 추정되는 𝛼-tocopherol acetate과 l-menthol, stevioside를 혼합 처리한 그룹의 마우스, 그리고 대조군의 마우스의 등쪽 표피를 취하여 전사체 분석을 진행한 결과 대조군에 비해서 각각의 처리군에서 유의적으로 발현된 유전자 패턴은 매우 유사함을 보였다. 또한 기능유전체적 분석을 하였을 때, 두 그룹에서 공통적으로 발모 조절 관련 기능의 유전자들이 매우 큰 비율의 변화를 보였다. 두 그룹에서 발현이 변화한 발모관련 유전자들로는 케라틴과 케라틴 관련 단백질, forkhead box, sonic hedgehog 등이 관찰되었다. 따라서, 치약의 발모 효과는 𝛼-tocopherol acetate과 l-menthol, stevioside 혼합물의 효과에 기인하는 것으로 생각된다.
