This study was designed to investigate the antioxidative activity of a substance isolated from. The antioxidative activity of procyanidine was higher than that of dl-tocopherol and BHA on low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation by thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS). Procyanidine inhibited the copper-mediated oxidation of human LDL in a dose dependent manner with almost complete inhibition at $60{\mu}g/mL$. Procyanidine at a concentration of $80{\mu}g/mL$ in hibited oxidation of LDL induced by J774. LDL oxidized by copper-mediated or cell-induced oxidation was degraded at a much greater rate than native LDL. These results suggested the importance of further research to procyanidine in the investigation of atherosclerosis and free radical-induced injury.

Objectives: Epicardial fat is true visceral fat that is known to be associated with metabolic syndrome, high abdominal fat, insulin resistance, coronary artery diseases, low coronary flow reserve and subclinical atherosclerosis. Dampness-Phlegm pattern is one of the pattern diagnosis of traditional Korean medicine. Previous studies showed that Dampness-Phlegm pattern is associated with hypertension, dyslipidemia, metabolic syndrome. This study is intended to find association between Dampness-Phlegm pattern and epicardial fat thickness. Methods: This study was a community-based single center trial. Ischemic stroke patients within 30 days after their ictus were enrolled. Epicardial fat thickness was measured using transthoracic echocardiography. Other measured and obtained variables are medical history, weight, height, body mass index, fasting blood glucose, cholesterol, triglycerol, high density lipoprotein, lipid and low density lipoprotein. Results: Three hundred sixty six were enlisted, and one hundred forty were diagnosed with the Dampness-Phlegm pattern. Dampness-Phlegm pattern group had significantly thicker epicardial fat. Binary logistic regression also showed statistically significant result. Conclusions: This study showed close association between epicardial fat and Dampness-Phlegm pattern. This result suggests a clue to standardization of pattern identification.

The antioxidative effect of mugwort extracts was measured by DPPH and LDL with four different solutions (70% acetone, ethanol, hot water, cold water). Mugwort extracts contained 3.2% of polyphenol, 380 RE/l00 g of vitamin A, 16.2 mg/100 g of vitamin C, and 5.1 ${\alpha}$-TE/100 g of vitamin E. DPPH revealed the effect in the order of 70% acetone, hot water, ethanol, and cold water. In particular, 70% acetone showed outstandingly stronger activity than the control group. Also, when 10 ${\mu}\ell$ was added, the effect was well noticed. But the antioxidative activity was hardly seen at 15 ${\mu}\ell$. LDL exhibited the same order of strength in proportion to mugwort＇s concentration. Against the control group, the activity of 70% acetone was 7 times, hot water and ethanol 6 times, and cold water 2 times. This result is attributable to the antioxidative increase of polyphenol and antioxidative vitamins.

마늘의 주성분인 유황 함유 화합물을 이용하여 사람 low density lipoprotein (LDL)의 산화에 대하여 항산화 활성을 실험하였다. 유황함유화합물인 1-methyl-1-cysteine, dimethyl trisulfide 및 1-vinyl-4H-1,3-dithiin의 농도를 각각 40, 60, $80{\mu}g/ml$ 씩 첨가하여 $Cu^{2+}$ 및 macrophages 유도로 LDL을 산화할 때 항산화 효능을 TBARS로 측정한 결과 용량 의존형으로 나타났으며 유황 함유 화합물이 모두 효능이 있었으며 항산화력은 2-vinyl-4H-1,3-dithiin > 1-methyl-1-cysteine > methyl trisulfide 순이었다. 이 때 유황 함유 화합물의 LDL에 대한 공액 2중결합에 대한 항산화 실험에서도 항산화 효과가 있었으며 $60{\mu}g/ml$의 농도에서 거의 억제되었다. 유황 함유 화합물 중에서는 2-vinyl-4H-1,3-dithiin이 다른 유황 함유 화합물에 비하여 약간 높은 항산화 효능을 나타내었다. Endothelial cell을 이용한 LDL의 산화에 대한 억제율은 2-vinyl-4H-1,3-dithiin이 가장 높게 나타났다.

영남대학교 의과대학 부속병원 종합건강진단센터에서 1994년 5월 20일부터 9월 30일까지 종합건강진단을 받은 성인 661명(남 472명, 여 189명)을 대상으로 이들의 신장, 체중, 혈청지질치(총 콜레스테롤, 중성지방, 고밀도 지단백), 혈압과 impedance를 측정하였고, 이들 측정치를 이용하여 체질량지수, Katsura 지수, 동맥경화지수, 저밀도 지단백, 체지방 비율을 산출하여 체지방 비율과 혈청 지질치 및 혈압과의 관련성을 규명하였다. 체지방 비율에 따른 분포는 남자의 경우 체지방 비율이 20% 이상인 제1군이 15명(3.2%), 여자의 경우 25% 이상인 제 1군이 7명 (3.7%)으로 나타났다. 체중은 남자와 여자에서 체지방 비율에 따라 유의한 차이가 있었으나(p<0.01)신장은 세 군간에 유의한 차이가 없었다. 남자에서는 총 콜레스테롤치, 중성지방치, 고밀도 지단백, 저밀도 저단백, 동맥경화지수가 세군간에 유의한 차이가 있었고(p<0.01) 여자에서는 총 콜레스테롤과 저밀도 지단백은 세 군간에 유의한 차이가 있었으나(p<0.05) 중성지방치, 고밀도 지단백은 세 군간에 차이가 없었다. 체질량지수와 Katsura 지수는 남녀 모두에서 세 군간에 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다(p<0.01). 상관관계분석에서는 체지방 비율이 남자에서는 체중, 체질량지수, Katsura 지수, 총 콜레스테롤, 중성지방, 저밀도 지단백, 동맥경화지수, 수축기 및 확장기 혈압과 유의한 상관관계가 있었고 고밀도 지단백과는 유의한 역상관관계가 있었다. 여자에서는 체지방 비율이 나이, 신장, 체중, 체질량지수, Katsura 지수, 총 콜레스테롤, 중성지방, 저밀도 지단백, 동맥경화지수와 유의한 상관관계가 있었고 고밀도 지단백과는 유의한 역상관관계가 있었으나 혈압과는 유의한 상관관계가 없었다. 심혈관계질환의 위험인자인 총 콜레스테롤과 LDL/HDL비를 종속변수로 하고 나이, 체질량지수, 체지방 비율을 독립변수로 한 다중회귀분석에서 총 콜레스테롤의 경우 남자에서는 체지방 비율, 나이, 체질량지수 모두가 총 콜레스테롤에 유의한 영향을 미치는 변수로 나왔으며$(R^2=0.1286)$, 여자에서는 체지방 비율과 나이가 유의한 영향을 미치는 변수였다$(R^2=0.3399)$. LDL/HDL비의 경우는 남자에서 체질량지수만이 유의한 영향을 미치는 변수였고$(R^2=0.0954)$, 여자에서는 체지방 비율, 나이, 체질량지수 모두가 유의한 영향을 미치는 변수였다$(R^2=0.3164)$. 수축기 및 확장기 혈압을 종속변수로 한 다중회귀 분석에서는 남자에서는 수축기 혈압에 나이, 저밀도 지단백, 총 콜레스테롤이 유의한 영향을 미치는 변수였고$(R^2=0.1297)$, 확장기 혈압에는 나이만이 유의한 영향을 미치는 변수였다$(R^2=0.0972)$. 여자에서는 수측기 혈압에 나이와 총 콜레스테롤이 유의한 영향을 미치는 변수였고$(R^2=0.1705)$, 확장기 혈압에는 나이만이 유의한 영향을 미치는 변수였다$(R^2=0.1218)$. 이상의 결과에서 체지방 비율은 비만이나 혈청 지질치는 잘 반영한다고 생각할 수 있으나 혈압을 반영하는데는 미흡한 점이 있다고 생각되며 앞으로 체지방 비율과 혈청 지질치 및 혈압과의 관련성을 확립하기 위해서는 본 연구에서 고려하지 않은 혈압에 미치는 다른 요인들을 독립변수로 고려한 추가 보완 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

Lifestyle and dietary behavior intervention as the primary prevention of lipid disorder seems safe and compatible with other treatments of cardiovascular diseases. Cross-sectional associations between lifestyle factors and dietary behavioral factors with plasma lipid and lipoprotein levels were analyzed in 189 middle-aged men in Suwon, Korea. Overnight fasting plasma levels of total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein(HDL)-cholesterol, triacylglycerol and glucose were analyzed. Blood pressure and anthropometric data were also measured. Lifestyle factors such as smoking status, alcohol consumption and frequency of physical exercise were evaluated by a self-administered questionnaire. Questions regarding dietary behavior were also asked. The subjects were 43.8%${\pm}$7.9 years old, and 23.8%${\pm}$2.6kg/m$^2$. From stepwise regression analyses, significant correlates with total cholesterol level were body mass index(BMI), alcohol intake(negative), age and coffee drinking(model R$^2$=14.3%). BMI, breakfast-skipping, age, and sleeping hours were significant for triacylglycerol level(model R$^2$=15.8%). BMI, alcohol drinking(negative), age, and coffee drinking were significant for low-density lipoprotein(LDL)(model R$^2$=11.7%). Age(negative), BMI(negative), alcohol drinking, stress level(negative), physical exercise, and cigarette smoking(negative) were significant for high-density lipoprotein(HDL)(model R$^2$=12.1%). From stepwise regression analyses, excluding BMI and age as factors in the model, alcohol intake(negative) and coffee drinking were significantly correlated with total cholesterol level(model R$^2$=4.4%) : breakfast-skipping with triacylglycerol(model R$^2$=3.2%) : alcohol intake (negative) with LDL level(model R$^2$=3.4%) : alcohol intake, physical exercise and stress level(negative) with HDL level(model R$^2$=6.3%). The findings suggest that a healthy daily lifestyle and dietary behavior may have an anti-atherogenic effect by altering plasma lipid and lipoprotein levels in middle-aged Korean men.

The purpose of this study is to promote understanding of physical activity and metabolic syndrome in middle-aged adults and to provide basic data of interventions development for the prevention and management of metabolic syndrome. Using the 2020 data for Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, 1,786 middle-aged adults between the ages of 40 and 64 with no missing data were analyzed. As a result of the study, 56.5(±2.1)% of men and 52.9(±1.81)% of women were sufficient activity group among physical activity, and the proportion of men was higher than that of women, but it was not statistically significant(t=1.27, p=.207). The prevalence of metabolic syndrome was 38.9(±2.1%) of men and 25.4(±1.5)% of women, the prevalence of men was significantly higher than that of women(t=5.12, p<.001). Compared to the insufficient activity group, the sufficient activity group had a 0.71(95% CI: 0.57~0.88) times the risk of developing low HDL(high density lipoprotein)- cholesterol(p=.002), and this pattern was maintained even after adjusting for age, education level, body mass index, smoking status, and drinking status(p=.002). Based on the results of this study, a physical activity and metabolic syndrome risk group in middle-aged adults should be selected, and physical activity promotion program to improve high density lipoprotein-cholesterol among metabolic syndrome indicators should be developed.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the affecting factors of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and it's components in Korean adults in their 30s and 40s. Methods: The present study assessed 1,215 subjects who participated in the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in 2014. We analyzed the prevalence rate of MetS and it's components and their affecting factors. Results: The prevalence rate of MetS was 16%. Family history of diabetes mellitus and, low or high saturated fat intake were associated with MetS in males. Low income, low education, excessive sleep, excessive carbohydrate and low saturated fat intake were associated with MetS in females. Triglycerides showed the highest prevalence in males and were related to white collar socioeconomic status, smoking, and obesity. Triglycerides and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol were high in females, and triglycerides were affected by excessive sleep, family history, low saturated fat intake, and obesity. High-density lipoprotein cholesterol was affected by obesity. Conclusions: Because sex differences exist in MetS, it is necessary to intervene through diverse approaches. In particular, a continuous management and preventive intervention for obesity is needed.
