Objectives: Acupuncture treatments are safe and effective for a wide variety of diseases involving autonomic dysregulation. Heart rate variability (HRV) is a noninvasive method for assessing sympathovagal balance. The low frequency/high frequency (LF/HF) spectral power ratio is an index of sympathovagal influence on heart rate and of cardiovascular health. This study tests the hypothesis that from rest to 30% to 50% of peak oxygen consumption, the nonlinear Conte-Zbilut-Federici (CZF) method of computing the LF/HF ratio is a more reliable index of changes in the HRV than linear methods are. Methods: The subjects of this study were 10 healthy young adults. Electrocardiogram RR intervals were measured during 6-minute periods of rest and aerobic exercise on a cycle ergometer at 30% and 50% of peak oxygen consumption ($VO_{2peak}$). Results: The frequency domain CZF computations of the LF/HF ratio and the time domain computations of the standard deviation of normal-to-normal intervals (SDNN) decreased sequentially from rest to 30% $VO_{2peak}$ (P < 0.001) to 50% $VO_{2peak}$ (P < 0.05). The SDNN and the CZF computations of the LF/HF ratio were positively correlated (Pearson's r = 0.75, P < 0.001). fast Fourier transform (FFT), autoregressive (AR) and Lomb periodogram computations of the LF/HF ratio increased only from rest to 50% $VO_{2peak}$. Conclusion: Computations of the LF/HF ratio by using the nonlinear CZF method appear to be more sensitive to changes in physical activity than computations of the LF/HF ratio by using linear methods. Future studies should determine whether the CZF computation of the LF/HF ratio improves evaluations of pharmacopuncture and other treatment modalities.

본 논문은 HF/LF 변조 방법을 적용한 ANPC (active neutral point clamped) 인버터의 스위치 개방 고장에 대응하기 위한 허용 제어 방법을 제안한다. 기존 Si 기반 인버터에 비해 SiC MOSFET과 Si IGBT로 구성된 ANPC 인버터는 시스템의 효율이 높고 출력 품질이 우수하다. HF/LF 변조는 커뮤테이션 루프를 줄일 수 있어 MW 급 대용량 인버터를 위해 사용되는 변조 기법이다. MW 급 인버터의 스위치 개방 고장은 부하에 심각한 손상을 입히며, 인버터가 동작을 멈출 경우 막대한 경제적 손실을 야기한다. 제안하는 스위치 개방 고장의 허용 제어 기술은 ANPC 인버터의 지속적인 운전을 가능하게 하며 신뢰성을 향상 시킨다. 제안하는 기법의 성능은 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 검증한다.

Purpose: This study was done to identify the effects of Qi hand reflexology on autonomic nerve activity in patients admitted to hospital. Method: A non-equivalent control group and quasi-experimental research with pre/post test design were used and 59 patients on a medical ward were assigned to either the experimental group (32) or the control group (27). The study variables included vital signs, autonomic nerve activities (ALF (absolute low frequency), AHF (absolute high frequency), nLF (normalized low frequency), nHF (normalized high frequency), SDNN (standard deviation of all normal-normal intervals)) and were evaluated using the QECG-3 system. The experimental group was treated with Qi hand reflexology for 10 minutes per day, for 3days. Results: Skin temperature and systolic blood pressure in the experimental decreased with treatment. ALF, AHF and SDNN for the experimental group increased with regulating proportion (nLF: nHF=6:4) and a significant difference between the groups was observed. Conclusion: The results indicated that application of Qi hand reflexology for patients in the hospital is effective in regulating the autonomic nervous system activation. Implication of finding should be useful for future research.

Objectives : The detrended fluctuation analysis is one of the nonlinear methods for the investigation of biological time series. It quantifies the fractal scaling properties and is known to be useful in the evaluation of long-range correlations in time series. The heart rate variability(HRV) of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) patients during nighttime was analyzed by detrended fluctuation analysis to assess its relationship with the severity of the symptoms. Methods : Fifty nine untreated male OSAS patients with moderate to severe symptoms(mean age=45.4${\pm}$11.7 years, apnea-hypopnea index, AHI${\geq}$15) underwent nocturnal polysomnography. Moderate(AHI=15-30, N=22) and severe(AHI>30, N=37) OSAS patients were compared for the indices derived from detrended fluctuation analysis and frequency domain analysis of HRV. Results : In the detrended fluctuation analysis, the alpha values were 0.75${\pm}$0.11 and 0.82${\pm}$0.07 for the severe and the moderate OSAS groups respectively. The difference was significant(p<.01). The alpha value had negative correlation with AHI(r=-.425, p=.001). Negative correlation coefficients were also found in the relationships between the alpha values and very low frequency(VLF)(r=-.425, p=.001), low frequency(LF)(r=-.633, p= <.001) and the LF/HF ratio(r=-.305, p=.019) respectively. LF/HF ratio(p=.005) was higher in the severe OSAS group compared to that of the moderate OSAS group. Conclusion : In this study, the detrended fluctuation analysis showed the significant difference between the two OSAS groups classified according to their severity of symptoms. The scaling exponent showed the negative correlation with AHI and indicies of frequency domain analysis. This result suggests that detrended fluctuation analysis can be helpful to estimate the severity of OSAS.

목 적：본 연구의 목적은 주요우울장애환자를 대상으로 Heart Rate Variability(HRV) 검사를 이용하여 비침습적으로 자율신경계의 기능, 심혈관조절체계 및 항상성을 측정하여 정상대조군과 비교해보고 생리학적, 임상적 의미를 고찰해보는 것이다. 방 법：DSM-Ⅳ의 진단기준에 의하여 주요우울장애로 진단받은 환자 30명과 정상대조군 30명을 대상으로 하였다. 검사는 SA-2000E 기기를 사용하여 HRV parameter를 측정한 후 시(time) 영역과 주파수(frequency)영역별로 분석하였다. 결 과：Heart rate(HR)는 환자군에서 유의하게 증가된 소견을 나타내었으며 the standard deviation of the NN interval(SDNN), the root square of successive differences(RMSSD)도 환자군에서 유의하게 낮은 소견을 보였다. Total power(TP) band, very low frequency(VLF：$0.003{\sim}0.04\;Hz$) band, low frequency(LF：$0.04{\sim}0.15\;Hz$) band, high frequency(HF：$0.15{\sim}0.4\;Hz$) band는 환자군에서 유의하게 낮은 수치를 보였고, LF/HF의 비는 유의한 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 결 론：우울증 환자는 심박수의 증가와 HRV의 감소를 보였으며, 교감 신경과 미주 신경의 불균형이 높은 심혈관계 사망률과 부분적으로 연관이 있는 것 같다. 우울증 환자들은 심장에서 자율신경기능의 이상을 나타내며 이렇게 교감/부교감 신경활성 조절능력이 저하되어 균형이 깨짐으로써 높은 심혈관계 사망률을 보인다고 할 수 있다.

본 연구는 여자대학생에게 복싱에어로빅 운동 후, 그 운동이 심박수변이도에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여 시도되었다. 운동전 측정과 3개월 복싱에어로빅 운동 후 측정, 두 차례에 의하여 검사한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. (1) 심박수변이도의 결과 Mean HRT는 집단 및 시간, 집단과 시간간의 교호작용이 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. (2) 심박수변이도의 결과 SDNN은 집단 및 시간, 집단과 시간간의 교호작용이 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. (3) 심박수변이도의 결과 RMSSD는 집단 및 시간, 집단과 시간간의 교호작용이 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. (4) 심박수변이도의 결과 TP는 집단 및 시간, 집단과 시간간의 교호작용이 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. (5) 심박수변이도의 결과 LF는 집단 및 시간, 집단과 시간간의 교호작용이 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. (6) 심박수변이도의 결과 HF는 집단 및 시간, 집단과 시간간의 교호작용이 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. (7) 심박수변이도의 결과 LF/HF는 집단 및 시간, 집단과 시간간의 교호작용이 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. (8) 심박수변이도의 결과 VLF는 집단 및 시간, 집단과 시 간간의 교호작용이 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 이상을 종합할 때 심박수변이도는 환경적인 영향을 받는 것으로 생각되어지며, 심박수변이도가 운동에 미치는 영향을 자세하기 규명하기 위해서는 비교적 동일한 집단을 더욱 세분화시키고 연령대와 성별, 운동형태 등에 따른 보다 장기적인 연구가 필요한 것으로 생각된다.

Objectives : Functional dyspepsia (FD) is one of the most common gastrointestinal diseases. Nevertheless, there are many unknown mechanisms of autonomic functioning in FD patients. This study was designed to investigate the relationship between FD and biosignals from heart rate variability (HRV) and Yangdorak diagnosis. Methods : 32 patients (22 female, 10 male; mean age 40) and 32 healthy volunteers (21 female, 11 malemean; age 38) participated in this study. First gastrointestinal symptoms rating scale (GSRS) was assessed by questionnaires in both groups to evaluate the types of gastrointestinal symptoms. Second, HRV and Yangdorak diagnosis were measured in both groups. Results : 1. The FD group in this study mainly had the complaint of 'bloating' symptoms. 2. There was statistically no significant difference between Yangdorak (total average and 24 acupoints) and HRV values except logarithmic low-frequency band (lnLF) and total power (TP) in frequency domain. 3. There was statistically no significant relationship between HRV and Yangdorak in either group. However, most Yangdorak values were positively related with some HRV values (low-frequency, low-frequency/high-frequency ratio and high-frequency, etc) in the control group. Conclusions : FD patients had relatively lesser sympathetic domain than healthy subjects, indicated by decreased lnLF and TP. Particularly, there were positive relationships and significant differences between Yangdorak and HRV in young healthy subjects. This suggests that biosignals from HRV may be a useful method that can differentiate FD from healthy state in those of young age.
