Hulled oat (Chohan) and naked oat (Choyang) flours were analyzed according to particle size to investigate nutritional components and physicochemical properties. Particle size of naked oat flours was larger than that of hulled oat flours. As the mesh of the crushed ones decreased, particle sizes increased in value. The content of total ${\beta}$-glucan was highest in hulled oat flour (4.23%) with 60 mesh and in naked oat flour (4.26%) with 100 mesh. Most total ${\beta}$-glucan was soluble ${\beta}$-glucan in both flours (over 76%). Total starch of hulled oat flours (63.64~69.82%) was higher than that of naked oat flours (52.45~63.71%). Whereas amylose contents showed a negative correlation with total starch contents. Contents of free amino acids increased according to particle size, and each component was dependent on each type of amino acid. Moreover, while fatty acid composition was not significant, the content of most naked oats was higher than that of hulled oats. Besides, the ratio of unsaturated fatty acids (oleic acid and linoleate) in both types of oat flours was relatively higher than that of other grains. The pasting properties of peak viscosity, trough, and breakdown showed the highest value in both oats with 100 mesh. Further, the values of final viscosity and the setback were higher with relatively larger particle size. In addition, peak time exhibited a lower value with larger particle size, whereas it showed the opposite value for pasting temperature. Starch digestibility did not show any specific trend according to particle size, whereas expected glycemic index of hulled oats was lower than that of naked oats. Moreover, lower values were investigated at larger particle sizes. The results of this study provide basic useful information for processing of oat products to improve consumption of oats grown in Korea.

Purpose : Evaluation and analysis of the incidence and causes of intraoperative and postoperative complications after arthoscopic anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) reconstruction using bone-patella. tendon-bone (BPTB) auto graft. Materials and Methods : We reviewed 85 cases of arthroscopic ACL reconstruction using BPTB autograft which had been followed up for more than 1 year. Intraoperative complications had been recorded and corrected during the operation. Postoperative complications were analyzed and compared between 3 groups which were classified by the last follow-up period after the operation. Results : There were a few intraoperative complications including patellar fracture(1 case), contamination of harvested graft(1 case), impingement of graft(2 cases), blow-out of tile posterior wall of the femoral tunnel(1 case) and intraarticular retraction of the screw(1 case). The result of the comparison of postoperative complications among the groups shows that the incidence of anterior knee pain, donor site pain and patellofemoral crepitation were significantly decreased after 2 years. But there was no significant decrease in these complications after 3 years. Conclusion : Intraoperative complications after arthroscopic ACL reconstruction using BPTB autograft were due to incorrect technique and carelessness of the operation team, and can be prevented by improvement of surgical technique and accumulation of experience. Postoperative complication were somewhat unavoidable but gradually improved with time; hence, we should consider it for the selection of graft donor.

Purpose : To evaluate the clinical results after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction with hamstring tendon and Ligament Anchor (LA) screw Materials and Methods : 103 patients (104 cases) who were followed up at least more than 2 years after ACL reconstruction were included in this study. The average period of follow-up was 36 months. The clinical results such as physical examination and Lysholm knee score and instrumented anterior laxity test with Telos were evaluated. Results : The Lysholm knee score was 57.9 in average preoeratively and improved to 95.2 in average at follow up. On the Lachman test, there were mild (+) instability in 46 cases $(45\%)$, moderate (++) in 33 $(31\%)$, severe (+++) in 25 $(24\%)$ preoperatively. 90 cases $(87\%)$ were converted to negative and 14 $(13\%)$ to mild at follow up. On Pivot-shift test, there were negative (-) instability in 22 cases $(22\%)$, mild (+) in 62 $(59\%)$, moderate (++) in 12 $(11\%)$ and severe in 8 $(8\%)$ preoperatively. 87 cases $(84\%)$ were converted to negative and 17 $(16\%)$ to mild at follow up. On instrumented anterior laxity test with $Telos^{\circledR}$, side to side difference on 20 lb was $13.4{\pm}5.6$ (7-25) mm in average preoperatively, and was decreased to $3.6{\pm}1.5$ (1-6) mm in average at follow-up. Complications were quadriceps muscle atrophy in 27 $(30.0\%)$, saphenous nerve paresthesia in 19 $(18.3\%)$, anterior knee crepitus in 13 $(12.5\%)$ and over-penetration of screw through lateral femoral cortex in 5 cases $(4.8\%)$. Conclusion : ACL reconstruction with hamstring tendon and LA screw was one of the choice of graft and fixatives in restoring knee stability and in improving clinical results with little complications such as anterior knee pain.

Purpose : To evaluate clinical outcomes after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction in middle-aged patients and determine the factors affecting the outcome. Subjects and Methods : Clinical results obtained from 60 cases (60 patients) older than 40 years of age at the time of surgery and 58 cases (58 patients) younger than 40 years of age who underwent ACL reconstruction between August 1988 to January 2002, return to sports activity, and stress radiographs using Telos instrument were compared. Results : The Lysholm knee score was improved from the preoperative score of 54.0 points to the postoperative score of 92.9 in patients older than 40 years of age and was improved from 56.2 points to 92.2 points in patients younger than 40 years of age. Clinical outcome was excellent in 51 cases $(85\%)$ and good in 9 cases $(15\%)$ in patients olde. than 40 years of age and was excellent in 47 cases $(81.0\%)$ and good in 11 cases $(19.0\%)$ in patients younger than 40 years of age. There was a significant difference in the rate of returning to preoperative sports activity between patients older than 40 years of age ($60\%$, 36 cases) and younger than 40 years ($82.8\%$, 48 cases). According to Telos stress radiography, the preoperative difference of 11.2 mm was decreased to the postoperative difference of 3.1 mm in patients older than 40 years of age and the preoperative difference of 10.7 mm was decreased to the postoperative difference of 2.9 mm in patients younger than 40 years of age. Clinical outcome did not show significant correlation with age, gender, surgery method, the presence of additional injury, and the rate of return to sports activity before receiving injury (p>0.05). Conclusion : Age didn't have a significant influence on the final outcome of ACL reconstruction and good results could be obtained with ACL reconstruction even in middle-aged patients.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate and standardize the four scales of Questionnaire for the Sasang Constitution Classification 　II (QSCCII). QSCCII is newly prepared by statistical item analysis and is designed to examine its diagnostic discriminability. QSCCII is administered to 1366 random informants. From the survey, we could get the data for the standardization. The criteria of standardization are based on the data from 265 informants who are examined by professionals. Collectted data are analyzed by internal consistency, variation analysis(ANOVA), Duncan test and discrimination analysis of SPSS PC+ V4.0 program. The results are as follows reliability of four scales for QSCCII is relatively valid. The internal consistency of Tae-yang(太陽) (太陽) scale is Cronbach's a=0.5708. That of So-yang(少陽) scale is a=0.5708. That of Tae-eum(太陰) scale is a =0.5922. That of So-eum(少陰) scale is a=0.6319. 2. There is a significant difference between each group through variation analysis of four scales. 3. The process of standardization is based on the average value and standard deviation with respect to age and sex difference of each criteria 4. This study suggests a source of standardization of Sasang Constitution Classification by providing norms in which the differences of age, sex, and number of items are taken into deep consideration. QSCC Ⅱ, therefore, can be applied to every age(the 10's to the 60's) and sex groups. 5. The recalculation of the raw-score to standard value (T-score) shows that the diagnostic discriminability (Hit-ratio: 70.08%) of QSCC Ⅱ brings about 37% improvement than proportional chance criteria (33.33%). Especially, Hit-ratios of Tae-eum In(74.5%) and So-eum In(70.8%) are higher than that of So-yang In(60.0%). 6. QSCC has discriminability only to male informants. Compared with QSCC, however, QSCC II has relatively efficient discriminability both to male and female informants. 7. These results would be a demonstration of the fact that the QSCC II could be used as a tool for sasang constitution classification.

This study is a descriptive research to identify the relationship among violence experience, resilience and job stress of nurses working in emergency department. The subjects of this study were 143 nurses with over one year working in emergency departments of 6 hospitals located in D city and C city and collected data through structured questionnaire. It was from November 6th to November 15th. The degree of violent experience of the subjects was 1.26 ± 1.31 out of 4. The average score of resillience was 2.50 ± 0.55 out of 4. The average score of job stress was 3.62 ± 0.49 out of 5. The result of correlation between violence experience, resilience and job stress, among the sub factors, in the correlation among violence experience and job stress sub factors, verbal violence experience was significantly positively correlated with nursing work(r=.194, p=.010), role conflict stress(r=.158, p=.030), and physical threat experience was positively correlated with nursing work(r=.200, p=.008), role conflict(r=.162, p=.027), and conflict with doctor(r=.145, p=.042). In the correlation between resilience and job stress sub factors, nursing work stress is hardness(r=-.189, p=.012), persistence(r=-.165, p=.025), and optimism (r=-.186, p=.013) and there was a negative correlation with the region. Expertise stress is hardness(r=-.230, p=.003), persistence(r=-.195, p=.010), optimistic(r=-.194, p=.010) and there was a negative correlation. Nurse-treated stress was positively correlated with spirituality(r=.154, p=.033). In the subcategory correlations of resilience and violent experience, the hardness had a negative correlation with the physical threat(r=-.150, p=.037) experience. The persistence was negatively correlated with the experience of physical threats(r=-.138, p=.050). The optimism was negatively correlated with the experience of physical violence(r=-.151, p=.036). As a result, it is necessary to create a safe working environment free from violence and to reinforce training on how to deal with violence in order to reduce the job stress of emergency department nurses. In addition, measures to cope with stress according to age and work experience and programs to increase resilience should be developed and mediated to reduce the job stress of emergency department nurses.

In this study, we investigated anticarcinogenic effects of extracts from Gloiopeltis tenax (GT). GT was extracted with methanol (GTM), which was then further fractionated into four fractions by using solvent fractionation method, affording methanol (GTMM), hexane (GTMH), butanol (GTMB) and aqueous (GTMA) soluble fractions. We determined the cytotoxic effects of these fractions on cancer cells by MTT assay. Among various fractions of GT, the GTMM showed the strongest cytotoxic effect at concentration of $150{\mu}g/mL$, displaying 95.97% on HepG2 cell lines and 93.64% on HT-29 cell lines, respectively. And, the anti-proliferative effect of GT was accompanied by a marked in increase of levels of Bad, Bax, Bok and Bak protein and activation of caspase-3, caspase-7 and PARP protein. Also, we observed quinone reductase (QR) induced effects in all fraction layers of GT on HepG2 cells. The QR induced effects of the GTMM and GTMB on HepG2 cells at concentration of $60{\mu}g/mL$ showing inductive indexes of 2.86 and 2.04 compared to the control value of 1.0.

The anti-lipogenic effect of cereal samples on high sucrose diet (HSD)-induced non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in mice was studied. We divided C57BL/6 mice into various groups based on 8 weeks of treatment with three types of cereal samples (HSD+WR, HSD diet containing 40% white rice; HSD+MCG, HSD diet containing 40% mixed cereal grain; HSD+AO-MCG, HSD diet containing 40% mixed antiobesity-cereal grain). After the experimental period, body weight changes, liver weights, serum lipid profiles, and hepatic fatty acid metabolism-related gene expression levels were determined. We found that HSD+WR, HSD+MCG, and HSD+AO-MCG treatments reduced body weight and liver weight, especially HSD+MCG and HSD+AO-MCG effectively reduced levels of serum triglycerides, total cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. However, high density lipoprotein cholesterol levels increased compared to the control group. Furthermore, expression of hepatic lipogenic genes such as sterol regulatory element-binding protein-1c, acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylase, fatty acid synthase, stearoyl-coenzyme A desaturase-1, cluster of differentiation, and $PPAR-{\gamma}$ (peroxisome proliferator activated receptor ${\gamma}$) decreased, whereas expression of ${\beta}-oxidation$ genes such as $PPAR-{\alpha}$ and carnitine palmitoyl transferase-1 increased following HSD+MCG and HSD+AO-MCG treatment compared with levels in HSD+WR and control groups. These results suggest that the functional cereal samples, especially HSD+AO-MCG treatment, improved hepatic steatosis triggered by an HSD-induced imbalance in hepatic lipid metabolism.

This study compared antioxidant compounds and antioxidant activities according to various varieties of 18 colored rice. Selected rice cultivars for this study were as follows: black rice (12 cultivars)-Heugjinjubyeo, Nunkeunheugchal, Joeunheugmi, Josaengheugchal, Heuggwang, Heugseol, Shinmyeongheugchal, Shinongheugchal, Shintoheugmi, Cheongpungheukchal, Heughyang, Boseogheugchal, red rice (four cultivars)-Jeogjinju, Jeogjinjuchal, Hongjinju, Geonganghongmi, and green rice (two cultivars)-Nogwonchal and Jungmo1020. These were transplanted on June 30th and cultivated from the Department of Southern Area Crop Science, National Institute of Crop Science in Miryang, Korea. Total polyphenol (TP) content of black rice cultivars was higher than that of red rice varieties. Heugjinjubyeo exhibited the highest TP, which was $9.55{\pm}0.05mg$ gallic acid equivalent/g sample. There were no significant differences between black rice cultivars and red rice cultivars in terms of total flavonoid (TF) level. Heugjinjubyeo and Hongjinju showed the higher TF content than any other variety. Shintoheugmi revealed the highest anthocyanin content ($194.26{\pm}0.65mg/100g$). Methanol extract of Heugjinjubyeo had the highest antioxidant activities. 2,2'-Azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activities of Heugjinjubyeo extract were $14.70{\pm}0.62$ and $30.68{\pm}2.22{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. There were significant correlations between antioxidant compound content and antioxidant activities.
