Objectives : Sopung-tang(Shufeng-tang) is a famous herbal prescription that treated ischemic brain injury. This study was designed to evaluate the effects of Sopung-tang(Shufeng-tang) on congnition and motor function recovery after ischemic brain injury in rats. Methods : Male rats were divided into 4 groups. Those rats caused ischemic brain injury by occlusion of MCA as Longa method. Control group I was per os normal saline for 7 days after ischemic brain injury. Control group II was per os normal saline for 14 days after ischemic brain injury. Experimental group I(Ex I) was taken with Sopung-tang(Shufeng-tang) for 7 days after ischemic brain injury. Experimental group II(Ex II) was taken with Sopung-tang(Shufeng-tang) for 14 days after ischemic brain injury. The author carried out neurological, cognitive motor behavior tests and histological assessment. Neurological motor behavior tests consist of limb placement test, beam-walking test and horizontal wire test. Morris water maze test was used for cognitive motor behavior test. In the histological assessment test, TTC(2,3,5-triphenylteterazolium chloride) staining, Hematoxylin & Eosin staining and immunohistochemical staining were experimented. Results : 1. In neurological motor behavior tests, motor function recovery was significantly increased in the experimental groups as compared with control groups(p<0.05). Especially Ex II was significantly increased as compared with Ex I(p<0.05). 2. In Morris water maze test, congnitive motor function recovery was significantly increased in the experimental groups as compared with control group(p<0.05). Especially Ex II was significantly increased as compared with Ex I(p<0.05). 3. In the immunohistochemical staining for the expression of BDNF in hippocampus, more immune reaction was investigated in the experimental groups as compared with control groups. Especially most immune reaction was experimented in the EX II. Conclusions : According to the above results, Sopung-tang(Shufeng-tang) can treat on the congnition and motor function recovery after ischemic brain injury in rats.

이 연구의 목적은 드로잉 과제를 활용한 수업이 과학 영재들의 개념 변화와 과학에 대한 태도 변화에 미치는 효과를 알아보는 것이다. 드로잉 과제를 활용한 수업이란 학생들이 수업의 주제와 관련된 핵심 개념을 그림으로 표현한 후 이를 수업에 활용하여 학습자의 개념을 발전시켜 나가는 형태의 수업이다. 본 연구는 2008년 3월부터 10월까지 8개월에 걸쳐서 드로잉 과제를 활용한 수업을 받은 실험 집단과 일반 영재 수업을 받은 비교 집단 간의 사전 및 사후 개념 점수를 비교하여 수업의 효과를 분석하였다. 또한 개발된 수업의 효과가 영재학생들의 메타인지 수준, 과학 창의적 문제 해결력 수준, 과학탐구능력 수준에 따라서 어떻게 다르게 나타나는지도 알아보았다. 드로잉 과제를 활용한 10차시 분량의 수업 절차는 Osborne과 Freyberg(1985)의 발생학습 모형을 기초로 하여 개발하였으며, 이 수업의 효과를 검증하기 위하여 울산광역시 U영재교육원 중3과학반 60명의 학생들을 실험집단 30명과 비교집단 30명으로 나누어 실험집단은 드로잉 과제를 활용한 수업을 실시하였고, 비교 집단은 일반 영재수업을 실시하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 드로잉 과제를 활용한 수업은 과학 영재의 개념을 변화시키는데 효과적이었다. 이것은 동료 학생들의 드로잉과 자신의 드로잉을 서로 비교하고, 토론하는 과정에서 학습자의 개념 변화가 효과적으로 일어났기 때문이라고 생각된다. 둘째, 드로잉 과제를 활용한 지각변동 수업의 효과는 과학 영재의 메타인지 수준에 관계없이 모든 과학 영재들의 개념 변화에 골고루 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구에서 개발한 드로잉 과제를 활용한 지각변동 수업은 메타인지 수준에 관계없이 모든 과학 영재들의 개념 변화를 위해 적용될 수 있는 프로그램이다. 셋째, 드로잉 과제를 활용한 지각변동 수업의 효과는 과학 창의적 문제 해결력 '중' 수준의 과학 영재에게 수업의 효과가 가장 크게 나타났다. 넷째, 드로잉 과제를 활용한 지각변동 수업의 효과는 과학 탐구능력 '중' 수준의 과학 영재에게 수업의 효과가 가장 크게 나타났다. 본 연구를 통하여 드로잉 과제를 활용한 수업은 과학 영재들의 개념 변화와 과학에 대한 태도 변화에 매우 효과적이라는 사실을 밝혔다. 많은 과학영재들이 수업 전에 자신이 가지고 있던 사전 개념을 드로잉으로 표현하는 학습활동에 높은 흥미와 관심을 보였으며, 다른 동료 학생들과 드로잉을 서로 비교하고 분석하는 학습활동에 적극적으로 참여하였다. 이러한 사실을 종합해 볼 때, 드로잉 과제를 활용한 수업을 적용하면 과학 영재들의 개념을 효과적으로 변화시킬 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 과학에 대한 태도 역시 긍정적으로 변화시킬 수 있다고 생각된다.

This study was performed to explore the effects of a dance therapy on physical and psychological characteristics in the elderly. The design of this study was a non-equivalent pre-post test experiment. The subjects consisted of elderly persons living in a facility located in Suweon and Bucheon. Fifty eight subjects, aged between 65 and 93 years who had normal cognition, sensory function, balance, and resting blood pressure. They underwent tests of balance, flexibility, muscle strength, depression, and anxiety as baseline data before dance therapy, and at 6th week and at the end of the 12nd week after following dance therapy. Twenty seven elderly persons were assigned to the experimental group and participated with the dance therapy between April and July, 1998. The dance therapy was developed by the author with the help of a dance therapist and a physiatrist. This therapy was based on the Marian Chace's dance therapy and Korean traditional dance with music. The dance therapy consists of 50 minutes session, 3 times a week for 12 weeks. One session was consisted of warming-up, expression, catharsis, sharing, and closing stage. The intensity of the dance therapy was at the 40 % of age-adjusted maximum heart rates. Data were analysed with mead standard deviation, Chi-square test, unpaired t-test, repeated measures ANOVA, and Bonferroni multiple regression using SAS program. 1. The results related to the physical characteristics were as follows : 1) The balance (standing on one leg, walking on the balancing bar), flexibility and muscle strength (knee extensor, knee flexor, ankle plantarflexor and dorsiflexor) of the experimental subjects significantly increased over time mere than that of the control subjects. 2) The experimental group had significantly higher score for balance, flexibility, muscle strength of knee extensor, and knee flexor than the control group at the 12nd week after dance therapy. 3) The experimental group had significantly higher score for muscle strength of ankle dorsiflexor and plantarflexor than the control group at the 6th week and the 12nd week after dance therapy. 2. The results related to psychological characteristics were as follows : 1) Scores of Geriatric Depression Scale, Hamilton Depression Rating Scale, and Zung's Self-rating Anxiety Scale of the experimental group were significantly decreased over time more than that of the control group. 2) The experimental group had significantly lower score for depression than the control group at the 12nd week after dance therapy. 3) The experimental group had significantly lower score for anxiety than the control group at the 6th week and the 12nd week after dance therapy. The findings showed that the dance therapy could be effective in improving the balances, flexibility, and muscle strength of lower limb, and effective in decreasing the depression and anxiety of the elderly. Additional merits of the dance therapy would be inexpensiveness, easy accessibility, and increasing interpersonal relationship. It can be suggested that the dance therapy is effective in the health promotion of the elderly.

Background: This study aimed to analyze correlations between depression, cognitive function, oral health state, ability to perform activities of daily living, oral dryness symptoms, and oral health-related quality of life, and determine factors influencing the latter. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study based on questionnaires completed by 260 participants with suspected dementia, residing in South Korea. Psychiatrists, psychiatric nurses, and dental hygienists visited clinics in the participating regions for examination and questionnaire administration. General characteristics, the geriatric depression scale, ability to perform activities of daily living, cognitive function, oral health state, and oral health-related quality of life were analyzed. Independent t-tests, one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis were conducted, identifying factors affecting oral health-related quality of life. Data analysis was performed using SPSS ver. 20.0 (IBM Corp., USA), and the significance was set at p<0.05. Results: Approximately 65.0% of participants were female, 63.5% were in their 70s, and 90.0% had health insurance. About 21.5%, 42.0%, and 36.5% were normal, slightly impaired, and had dementia, respectively. High cognitive impairment was associated with poor oral health. Sex, education levels, marital status, and living arrangements influenced oral health-related quality of life. According to the regression analysis, geriatric depression and oral dryness affected the Geriatric Oral Health Assessment Index scores. Conclusion: In conclusion, oral dryness and depression levels among elders influenced oral health-related quality of life. The results showed that to enhance elders' oral health-related quality of life, it is essential to not only improve their oral health state, but also relieve oral health problems, especially oral dryness, and take into consideration their psychological aspects.

Regular long term dance movement could be one of ways to induce improvement of psychophysiological variables, resulting in improvement of quality of life. However, there have been few studies to evaluate the effect of dance movement training on both physiological and psychological variables in the elderly. This study was focused to determine the effect of Korean traditional dance movement training on psychophysiological variables-body weight, body fat, lean body mass, muscle strength, muscle endurance, flexibility, agility, resting heart rate and blood pressure, depression and life satisfaction-in Korean elderly women. Thirty four subjects, aged between 65 and 75years who have normal cognition, sensory function, cerebellum function, cardiovascular function, participated in this study. Seventeen experimental group subjects were selected from E-elderly university in Kyung Gi province, and Seventeen control group subjects were selected from N-welfare facility in Seoul City. Seventeen experimental group subjects participated for 12weeks dance movement program. Korean traditional dance movement program was developed on the basis of Korean traditional dance and music by the author. The program consisted of approximately 50minutes of dance, 3times a week for 12weeks. During 50minutes workout, there were 15minutes of warm-up dancing, 25minutes of conditioning dance and 10minutes of cool-down dancing. The intensity for the conditioning phase was at between 60% and 65% of age-adjusted maximum heart rates. The body weight, body fat, lean body mass, muscle strength(grip strength, leg strength), muscle endurance, flexibility, agility, resting heart rate and blood pressure, depression and life satis-faction were measured prior to and following the experimental treatment. The participants in dance movement were interviewed focusing on subjective feeling following 12 week's regular dance movement. Data were analyzed with mean, standard deviation, percentage of change, X²-test, t-test, and ANCOVA test using SPSS PC/sup +/ program. Subjective feeling was categorized into cognitopsy-chological and physiological responses. Results were obtained as follows : 1) The body weight (F=15.52, p=.000), body fat (F=18.33, p=.000) and lean body mass (F=7.28, p=.011) of the experimental group were significantly lower than those of the control group following the dance movement training. 2) The leg strength (F=30.96, p=.000), muscle endurance (F=9.06, p=.005), agility(F=44.92, 000), flexibility(F=6.84, p=.014) of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group following the dance movement training. There was no significant difference of grip strength(F=.43, p=.515) between experimental and control groups. 3) The heart rate(F=26.96, p=.000), systolic (F=10.40, p=.000) and diastolic(F=3.99, p=.005) blood pressure at rest of the experimental group were significantly lower than those of the control group following the dance movement training. 4) No significant difference of score of depression (F=3.49, p=.071) was observed between experimental and control groups. 5) Score of life satisfaction of experimental group was remarkably higher than that of control group following 12weeks of dance movement training (p<0.05). 6) Thematic responses about the dance movement following the training were positive. "I feel good" was the most frequent among cognitopsychological responses and "I feel lightness of body" was the most frequent among physiological responses. The results suggest that Korean traditional dance movement training can improve psychophysiological variables of Korean elderly.

연구목적 소위 '행동증상 아형 전두측두엽 치매 표현형모사 증후군(behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia phenocopy syndrome)' 환자들은 일차성 정신장애와 감별이 힘들고, 기존의 치료 약물에 대한 반응도 회의적이어서, 오진의 위험과 법적 문제의 유발 가능성이 높으므로, 이러한 양상을 보이는 환자군에 대한 지속적인 관심과 연구가 필요함을 환기 시키기 위해서 본 연구를 시행하였다. 방법 2000년 부터 2016년 까지 발행된 영문 학술지에 게재된 논문을 인터넷에서 'frontotemporal', 'phenocopy', 'behavioral'과 같은 단어의 조합으로 검색하여 찾은 참고문헌을 정리, 고찰하였다. 또한 저자가 직접 경험한 두 증례를 간략히 기술하였다. 결과 환자의 행동 증상은 가족과 지역사회에 큰 영향을 끼치므로 행동증상 아형 전두측두엽 치매에서 정확한 진단이 중요하다. 그러나, 행동증상 아형 전두측두엽 치매에서 현재까지 질병 수정 치료법은 개발되지 않았으며, 현재의 약물학적 치료는 특수한 증상에 도움이 될 뿐이고, 적절한 정신의학적 치료에도 불구하고 점진적인 퇴행이 진행된다. 상당수의 '행동증상 아형 전두측두엽 치매 의심(possible bvFTD)' 환자에서 임상적으로 '행동증상 아형 전두측두엽 치매 가능(probable bvFTD)'으로 진행되지 않으며, 인지기능이나 사회적 기능이 저하되지 않고, 활동 기능의 저하를 보이지 않으며, 생존기간이 조금 더 길고, 수년에 걸쳐서 정상적인 뇌영상화 검사 소견을 보인다. 결론 환전두측두엽 치매 및 일차성 정신장애 환자에서 보이는 전형적인 임상적 양상이나 경과, 뇌영상화 검사를 포함한 진단적 평가와는 다른 비전형적인 소견을 보이는 환자군들은 생각보다 많으며, 정신의학과 의사들이 이에 대한 의학적 지식과 판별 능력이 발전되면, 그 발견의 비율은 훨씬 더 높아질 것이다. 그러나, 현재로서는 이러한 비전형적인 환자군의 정체에 대해서는 이견이 많으며, 향후 적극적인 연구가 행해져야할 분야이다.

장애아의 문화예술교육은 매우 중요한 활동임에도 불구하고 '장애유형과 수준에 맞는 지도방법 및 프로그램 부재'로 최근까지도 활발하게 이루어지지 못했다. 이러한 상황에서 만화콘텐츠는 지적 장애아의 문화예술교육을 위한 가장 적절한 교구로서 활용될 수 있다. 만화콘텐츠의 오락적 기능과 장르적 특성은 대상 아동이 보다 자발적이고, 적극적으로 참여할 수 있도록 동기를 유발하고 흥미로운 활동을 위한 교구로서 기능할 수 있다. 물론 일반아동을 대상으로 제작된 만화콘텐츠를 특수교육현장에 그대로 적용하는 것은 적절하지 않으므로 대상 아동에게 적절한 콘텐츠를 개발해야 한다. 만화 해독 능력에 관하여 조형요소 인지, 문자와 기호 인지, 연상과 사고력 등 세 가지 측면으로 살펴본 결과, 연구 대상 아동인 전조작기 수준의 경도정신지체 아동은 그 수준에 맞게 제공된 콘텐츠에 대하여 단순화, 상징화된 만화의 이미지를 실사 이미지보다 더욱 명확하게 이해할 것이며, 문자와 이미지가 서로 의미를 보완하는 만화의 특성은 문자와 기호의 인지를 더욱 용이하게 할 것으로 기대된다. 또한 연상과 사고력 또한 대상 아동의 기억 한계 내에서 구성할 경우 만화의 칸 전개 유형 중 대부분 형태의 연상활동이 가능하였다. 만화의 구성에 있어 주제와 소재는 전조작기 수준의 아동이 이해할 수 있으며, 생활연령 8~13세가 흥미를 유발할 수 있어야 하며, 작품의 분량은 일반아동을 대상으로 한 만화보다 적은 분량으로 수준에 맞게 계획하도록 한다. 문자와 기호가 작품 내에서 보조적인 역할만 하도록 분량 제한하고, 만화 이미지의 스타일 표현과 페이지의 칸 구성 등은 대상아동의 특성과 장애의 정도를 고려하도록 한다. 그러나 이러한 시도가 교육현장에 기여하려면 다양한 만화콘텐츠 제작이 시도되어 장애 유형별 개념과 정서 및 사회 행동적 특성, 인지와 학업성취 능력, 언어 및 신체 건강 특성을 고려한 만화콘텐츠 제작의 구체적 지침을 만들어 내는 것이 필요하며, 개발된 만화콘텐츠가 피상적인 결과물에 머물지 않도록 적용성을 높이기 위해 개발 과정에서 수업 적용 등 대상 아동과 충분한 의사소통이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.
