  • 최근 휴대폰 보급률이 증가하면서 휴대폰 전자파로 인해 두통, 불면증, 단기간의 기억력 소실 등의 정신 신경 생리학적 증상을 호소하는 휴대폰 전자파 과민증(EHS, Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity) 환자들이 나타나고 있다. 그러나 휴대폰 전자파 과민반응의 원인이 막연한 불안감 때문인지 혹은 전자파 노출로 인한 증상 인지에 대하여 확실한 원인규명이 되지 않고 있다. GSM 방식의 휴대폰의 경우 전자파 노출 시 EHS 군을 대상으로 혈압, 맥박수 변화 및 자각 증상 등의 과민 반응에 대한 연구들이 수행되었으나 일반인과 EHS 군의 실험-대조군 연구로 생체신호, 자각증상 및 전자파 인지 여부에 대한 복합적인 연구와 CDMA 휴대폰 EHS 연구는 거의 없는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 일반인 19명과 EHS 17명을 대상으로 30분간 300 mW의 CDMA 휴대폰 전자파에 노출 시 교감신경의 흥분을 나타내는 맥박, 호흡수, HRV(heart rate variability)의 변화를 측정하고, 전자파 노출 시 전자파 인지여부와 두통, 피로 등의 자각증상을 조사하였다. 그 결과, 일반인과 EHS 군 모두 전자파 노출여부에 따라 맥박, 호흡수, HRV의 변화가 없었고, 자각증상의 차이도 없었다. 전자파 인지 조사 결과 EHS 군이 일반인 군에 비하여 전자파를 더 잘 인지한다고 볼 수 없었다.

  • Purpose: This study was done to examine the effects of moxibustion on physiological indices, such as 24-hr blood pressure, pulse pressure, and pulse rate, and autonomic nervous symptoms among adults with prehypertension. Methods: Participants were adults whose systolic and diastolic blood pressures were in the prehypertension stage and were not under treatment for the condition. Both experimental and control group consisted of 13 participants who were taking classes on acupuncture and moxibustion at a private institute. The experimental group received moxibustion once a day for 15 min, at least 5 days a week for 8 weeks. The results were analyzed using $x^2$-test, t-test, Fisher's exact test, Wilcoxon rank sum test and repeated measures ANOVA with the SAS program. Bonferroni correction method was adopted for multiple comparisons. Results: No significant change was observed in the 24-hr systolic and diastolic blood pressure between the two groups. Differences in the 24-hr pulse pressure and pulse rate were also not significant. However, significant decreases in headache, symptoms of flushing and fatigue were observed in the experimental group. Conclusion: The results suggest that moxibustion contributes to alleviating symptoms such as headache, flushing and fatigue associated with the autonomic nervous system among adults with prehypertension.

  • This thesis aims to provide an analytical basis for existing or new prescriptions based on the theory for properties and tastes of Korean oriental herbal medicines. To this end, prescriptions presented in 「the Various Changes in the Dominations of the Six Energies and their Relations with the Diseases」 of 『Plain Questions』 were analyzed based on the theory for properties and tastes of Korean oriental herbal medicines in 『Yellow Emperor's Canon Internal Medicine』. This thesis focused on symptoms and prescriptions based on the theory for properties and tastes of Korean oriental herbal medicines, which were described in 「the Various Changes in the Dominations of the Six Energies and their Relations with the Diseases」 of 『Plain Questions』 with regard to the year when Kweoleum is affecting the earth energy and the wind energy is partially over-abundant. Those symptoms and prescriptions originate from the theory of the five elements and six climates. The symptoms were analyzed from the perspective of physiology. The prescriptions were first analyzed based on the theory for properties and tastes of Korean oriental herbal medicines in 『Yellow Emperor's Canon Internal Medicine』. Then, a mix formula of oriental medicines pursuant to those prescriptions was studied. Lastly, proper prescriptions from 『Treatise of Cold-Induced Diseases』, which were in conformity with the above prescriptions, were selected. From the physiological point of view, symptoms with regard to the year when Kweoleum is affecting the earth energy and the wind energy is partially over-abundant can be, based on the theory of the five elements and six climates, diagnosed as the symptoms from impaired spleen and stomach due to excessive wind energy. Prescriptions from 『Treatise of Cold-Induced Diseases』pursuant to prescriptions based on the theory for properties and tastes of Korean oriental herbal medicines can be broken down into the following: pinellia decoction for reducing stomach-fire(Banhasasimtang); ginger decoction for reducing stomach-fire(Saenggangsasimtang); liquorice root decoction for reducing stomach-fire(Gamchosasimtang); and Chinese goldthread decoction(Hwangryentang). Therefore, symptoms of six kinds of weather presented in 「the Various Changes in the Dominations of the Six Energies and their Relations with the Diseases」 of 『Plain Questions』 can be analyzed from the physiological point of view. As a result, in addition to the methodology that analyzes existing prescriptions within the boundary of the theory for properties and tastes of Korean oriental herbal medicines in 『Yellow Emperor's Canon Internal Medicine』, it is expected that a theoretical basis for new prescriptions can be provided by analyzing prescriptions from 『Treatise of Cold-Induced Diseases』, based on prescriptions from the theory for properties and tastes of Korean oriental herbal medicines.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study were to examine the incidence of lymphedema and to compare to physiological and psychosocial symptoms between breast cancer patients with lymphedema and without lymphedema. Method: Four hundreds fifty women with breast cancer receiving mastectomy were recruited from two out-patient breast clinics of A and S university hospitals in Seoul, Korea from October, 2004 to May, 2005. Lymphedema was defined by circumferential measurement. Differences greater than 2cm between the affected arm and normal arm were considered to be lymphedema. A descriptive design was used for this study and data was collected using a structured questionnaire. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and independent t-test. Results: Lymphedema developed in 112(24.9%) of the 450 subjects. Subjects with lymphedema reported more severe sensation change of arm and more depression and confusion than subjects without lymphedema. Range of motion of shoulder as a physical indicator and social support, however, were not significantly different between the two groups. Conclusion: Lymphedema is recognized as an unpleasant and uncomfortable consequence of breast cancer-related treatment. Therefore, more research is needed to evaluate the impact of lymphedema on quality of life in patients with lymphedema and the efficacy of nursing intervention.

  • Hyperhydricity is a physiological anomaly that significantly affects the growth and proliferation rate of crops cultivated by tissue culture techniques. To better understand the mechanisms that govern hyperhydricity incidence, we examined the effects of several media components, particularly cytokinin and gelling agents. These elements were found to be influential in both in vitro propagation and the development of hyperhydricity. Our study revealed that Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings had a greater manifestation of hyperhydricity symptoms when exposed to high cytokinin concentrations compared with the control. The presence of gelrite led to the manifestation of hyperhydric symptoms by elevated water build-up in the apoplast. The phenomenon of stomata closure was observed in the hyperhydric leaves, resulting in an increased ability to retain water and a decrease in the transpiration rates when compared to their respective control leaves. Additionally, histological examinations of the cross sections of hyperhydric leaves revealed an irregular cellular arrangement and large intercellular spaces. Furthermore, hyperhydric seedlings displayed impaired cuticular development in comparison to their normal seedlings.

  • 전기기기의 사용이 증가함에 따라 60Hz 전력선에서 발생되는 전자기장의 인체영향에 관한 관심이 고조되고 있다. 그와 더불어 60Hz 자기장에 의해 두통, 불면증 등 정신 신경 생리학적 증상을 호소하는 사람들이 증가하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 증상이 자기장 노출에 의한 것인지 심리적 요인 때문인지에 대하여 확실한 원인규명이 되어 있지 않다. 따라서 본 연구는 자기장 노출 시 생리학적 변화(심박수, 호흡수, 심박변이도, 뇌파의 알파, 베타파), 자각증상, 자기장 인지 여부를 동시에 측정하여 복합적으로 자각 증상 원인을 분석하는 연구를 수행하였다. 60Hz 12.5uT의 자기장을 일반인 군(16명)과 EHS 군(15명)을 대상으로 실제 노출 및 가상 노출을 하였다. 그 결과 알반인 군과 EHS 군 모두 60Hz 자기장 노출여부에 따른 생리학적 변화나 자각증상의 차이가 없었다. 또한 자기장 인지 정확도에서도 EHS 군이 일반인 군보다 인지를 잘한다고 볼 수 없었다. 그러므로 EHS 유발요인은 60Hz 자기장이 아니라 다른 심리적, 환경적 요인에 의한 것으로 사료된다.

  • 비광요구형 디페닐에테르계 화합물인 TOPE의 제초작용 생리를 알기 위하여 온실에서의 제초특성을 비롯한 식물색소대사, 전자전달계, 단백질 및 핵산대사 등에 미치는 TOPE.의 영향을 조사하였다. 작용발현 속도가 광요구형 디페닐에테르계보다는 늦지만 엽신부의 고사와 동시에 생육저해 및 생장점에서의 분열이상이 관찰되었으며 절취된 오이자엽에 처리될 경우 전해질 누출과 더불어 엽주변부의 심한 분열이상이 초래되었다. 그러나 2,4-D와 같은 오옥신 활성은 아니었다. 저광도에서의 엽록소 형성 저해정도는 관찰되지 않았으며 oxyfluorfen 과는 달리 protoporphyrin IX의 축적도 유기되지 않았으나, 카로티노이드 성분은 모두 비정상적으로 증가되었다. 탈수소효소의 활성 또는 미토콘드리아에서의 호흡활성은 일정농도에 서 증가되는 경향을 보이나 호흡저해제들은 TOPE에 의한 전해질 누출을 경감시키지 못하였다. 한편 광합성 전자전달 저해는 고농도에서만 관찰되었다. 오이의 전해질 누출과 분열이상을 지표로 한 TOPE와의 상호작용 실험에서 전해질 누출에 대하여 cycloheximide는 상승적으로, chloramphenicol, actinomycin-D, hydroxyurea는 길항적으로 작용하였고, cycloheximide, actinomycin-D, hydroxyurea 등은 자엽의 이상분열을 경감시켰다. 이는 TOPE가 핵산대사에 관여됨을 시사해 주는 것으로써 오이자엽 및 벼 근에 TOPE를 처리했을 때 RNA 및 단백질보다 DNA의 증가가 보다 빠른 시기에 일어났다. 따라서 TOPE가 처리되면 비정상적인 핵산대사 촉진으로 인해 제반 생리작용이 교란되고 이어 엽신부의 고사와 분열이상 등의 제초활성이 발현되는 것으로 생각된다.
