  • In this study, the masking effect of olfactory stimulus on the awakening state due to sound stimuli while driving using Graphic Driving Simulator was observed through the response of autonomic nervous system. The test was conducted for 11 males in their twenties. The siren of ambulance car was presented to them as auditory stimulus for 30 secs while driving in a situation of high way in the condition of both peppermint and control, respectively, and LF/HF ratio of HRV (Heart Rate Variability), the activity index of sympathetic nerve, and GSR (Galvanic Skin Response) response were examined. The test was proceeded in the order of three stages, that is, sound stimuli (test 1), driving performance, and sound stimuli (test 2), and fragrance stimulus, driving performance, and sound stimuli (test 3), and the physiological signal of GSR, HRV was measured in the whole stages. As a result of test, comparing the results of before and after auditory stimulus test (1) (p < 0.01), test (2) (p < 0.05), and test (3) (p < 0.01), driving performance test (2) (p < 0.01), test (3) (p < 0.01), and olfactory stimulus test (3) (p < 0.05), respectively, GSR response increased, showing significant difference in all the tests. It indicates that when auditory stimulus was presented to the subjects, they were in the awakening state as sympathetic nervous system got activated. As a result of comparing auditory stimulus while driving before and after presenting olfactory stimulus, there was no significant difference in GSR response. The LF/HF ratio of HRV increased, showing a significant difference only in test (2) (p < 0.05), and in driving performance test (2) (p < 0.05) in auditory stimulus, however, it showed no significant difference in olfactory stimulus. As a result of comparing auditory stimulus while driving before and after presenting olfactory stimulus, there was a decrease, showing significant difference (p < 0.05) in LF/HF ratio of HRV. That is, it means that the activation of sympathetic nervous system decreased, and that parasympathetic nervous system got activated. From these results, it was observed that while driving, the awakening level due to auditory stimulus was settled with olfactory stimulus. In conclusion, it was drawn that while driving, olfactory stimulus could have the masking effect on auditory stimulus.

  • 유럽과 미국에서는 말뚝기초 설계에 한계상태설계법 사용이 거의 정착되었으며, 세계적 추세에 따라 국내에서도 국토해양부가 한계상태설계법에 기반한 교량하부기초 설계기준을 제정하였지만, 국내 말뚝공법 및 지반조건에 대한 저항계수 연구가 부족하여 당장 설계에 반영하기에는 어려운 여건이었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 국내에서 많이 사용되고 있는 PHC 매입말뚝의 저항계수를 구하기 위하여 LH설계기준과 도로교설계기준 방법으로 산정한 지지력과 LH 현장에서 실시한 정재하시험(21회)과 동재하시험(EOID 21회, Restrike 21회) 결과를 신뢰성분석을 실시하였으며, 선행 논문(재하시험에 의한 PHC 매입말뚝의 저항계수 산정)에서 수행한 결과보다 2배 이상 많은 데이터를 추가하여 분석하였다. 그 결과 정재하지지력(극한)으로 구한 저항계수는 설계식 및 목표신뢰도지수에 따라 0.64~0.83, 동재하지지력(극한)으로 구한 저항계수는 0.42~0.55로 나와 정재하지지력(극한)으로 구한 저항계수보다 약 33% 작게 나타났다. 반면 수정동재하지지력(EOID의 극한선단지지력 + Restrike의 극한주면지지력)으로 구한 저항계수는 0.55~0.71로 나와 정재하지지력(극한)으로 구한 저항계수와 비교 시 그 차이가 약 14%로 줄어들었다. 데이터 추가에 의해 저항계수를 산정한 결과 이전 저항계수와 같거나 0.04정도 증가하여 데이터가 2배 이상 추가되어도 저항계수가 의미 있을 정도로 크게 변하지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 본 연구에서 정재하 및 동재하시험으로 산정한 전체 저항계수는 전반적으로 도로교설계기준(2015)에서 제시한 저항계수 0.3보다 커서 경제적인 설계가 가능한 것으로 나타났다.

  • 말정혈관확장제(末精血管擴張劑)인 Ethaverine의 임상효과(임상(臨床效果)는 말초동맥질환(末梢動脈疾患)을 갖인 29명(名)의 당뇨질환자(糖尿疾患者)를 대상으로 이중맹검(二重盲檢) 비교차(非交叉) 방법(方法)에 의(依)하여 연구검토(硏究檢討)하였다. 임상적(臨床的)인 개선(改善)은 간헐성파행증(間歇性跛行症)의 발생빈도(發生頻度)를 포함하는 환노(患老)들의 병역(病歷)으로부터 평가(評價)하였다. Ethaverine을 사주(四週) 치료후(治療後)는 임상증상(臨床症狀)을 개선(改善)하는데 있어 위약(僞藥)에 비(比)하여 효과가 없었다. 어째든 간에 Ethaverine은 위약(僞藥)보다는 혈관확장제(血管擴張劑)로서 효력이 있었다. Ethaverine에 의(依)하여 유발(誘發)되는 혈관확장제(血管擴張劑)의 성질(性質)은 alcohol의 그것과 유사하였다. 말초혈관확장제(末梢血管擴張劑)를 연구(硏究)하는 새로운 임상적(臨床的) 방법(方法)을 제시(提示)하였다. 하지(下肢)의 말초혈관(末梢血管) 동맥질환(動脈疾患)의 임상증상(臨床症狀)은 촉맥강도(觸脈强度)의 감소냉감(減少冷感) 및 피부(皮膚)의 변색(變色)등을 들 수 있다. 간헐성파행증(間歇性跛行症)도 수반하는 수가 있다. 혈관조직(血管組織)에 있어서의 병변(病變)이 이같은 증상(症狀)에 선행(先行)하여 일어나며 위중(危重)한 혈관부전(血管不全)의 입증(立證)은 혈관확장제료법(血管擴張劑療法) 또는 외과적(外科的) 처치(處置)를 택하는데 있어서의 결정적(決定的)인 요인(要因)이 된다. 만성 말초동맥질환(末梢動脈疾患)이 있는 술후환자(術後患者)들도 차후혈관확장제(次後血管擴張劑)의 치료(治療)를 받아야한다. 임상보고((臨床報告)에 의(依)하면 말초혈관확장제(末梢血管擴張劑)는 폐새성(閉塞性) 혈관질환(血管疾患)에 대(對)해서 보다는 혈관경련성(血管痙攣性) 말초혈관장해(末梢血管障害)에 대해서 보다 유효하며 비교적 큰 혈관상(血管床)보다는 작은 모세혈관상(毛細血管床) 일때의 혈관(血管)이 가장 잘 감응(感應)한다고 한다. 최근(最近)에 이르러 말초혈관확장제(末梢血管擴張劑)의 임상(臨床)효과는 수많은 임상연구가(臨床硏究家)들 및 임상의(臨床醫)들의 연구대상(硏究對象)이 되고있다. 본연구(本硏究)에서 연구자(硏究者)들은 혈관경련성말초동맥질환(血管痙攣性末梢動脈疾患)을 갖인 환자(患者)들에 대(對)한 말초혈관확장제(末梢血管擴張劑)로써의 Ethaverine HCl의 임상(臨床)효과를 재평가(再評價)하였다. Ethaverine은 각종임상시험결과(各種臨床試驗結果)에 의(依)하면 항경련제(抗痙攣劑)로서는 papaverine 보다도 2배(倍) 내지 4배(倍)정도 그 약효가 강력(强力)하다고 한다.

  • 본 연구에서는 금불초(Inula britannica) 종(種) 및 개화시기에 따른 금불초 추출물의 항산화 효능을 알아보았다. 이들 추출물의 free radical 소거활성을 살펴본 결과, 만개한 금불초 꽃(I. britannica var. chinensis) 추출물의 경우 500 ${\mu}g/mL$의 농도에서 79.89%의 free radical 소거활성을 보였으나, 금불초 유사종인 가는 금불초(I. britannica var. linariaefolia Regel), 가지 금불초(I. britannica var. ramosa) 및 버들 금불초(I. salicina var. asiatica)의 꽃 추출물의 경우 free radical 소거활성이 거의 나타나지 않았다. 또한 꽃이 만개하였을 경우 꽃 추출물 분획에서는 93.62%의 free radical 소거활성을 보였으며, 봉우리 추출물 분획은 43.28%, 낙화추출물 분획은 14.11%를 나타냈다. 금불초의 종 및 개화시기를 선정 후, 추출용매, 온도, 시간을 조절하여 최적의 추출조건을 확립하였다. 그 결과, $65^{\circ}C$ 에탄올 추출물에서 가장 높은 DPPH free radical 소거활성이 나타났으며, 시간에 따른 유의적 차이는 없는 것으로 나타났다. 만개한 금불초 꽃 추출물에 대하여 rose-bengal로 증감된 사람 적혈구의 광용혈 실험에서 세포보호효과를 측정한 결과, 5 ~ 50 ${\mu}g/mL$의 범위에서 농도 의존적으로 세포 보호 효과를 나타내었다. 특히 50 ${\mu}g/mL$의 농도에서 ${\tau}_{50}$이 116.1 min으로 비교물질인 (+)-${\alpha}$-tocopherol에 비해 1.58배 더 큰 세포 보호활성이 있음을 알 수 있었다. HPLC로 금불초 꽃 추출물을 분석한 결과 flavonoid의 일종인 quercetin이 다량 함유되어 있는 것을 확인하였다. 이상의 결과들은, $65^{\circ}C$ 에탄올로 추출한 만개한 금불초 꽃 추출물의 경우 다량의 quercetin을 함유하며, 그로 인하여 free radical 소거활성 및 ROS에 대항하여 세포막을 효과적으로 보호함으로써 태양 자외선에 노출된 피부를 보호하는 항산화제로서 작용할 수 있을 것으로 사료되며, 기능성 화장품 원료로서 응용 가능성이 있음을 시사한다.

  • According as the automation of clerical work(OA ; Office Automation) develops, the use of VDT(Visual or Video Display Terminal) is increasing suddenly. But, in proportion to the spread of office automation(OA tendency), the self-conciousness syptom attendant upon the work is appearing also (Kim, Jung Tae, Lee, Young Ook, 1990). The apparatuses of office enable the clerical workers to be convenient and perform mass businesses. But, they are increasing the opportunity to be exposed to VDT syndrom, techno stress, computer terminal disease, pain by muscle strain(RSI), bradycausia of noise nature, and electromagnetic waves, etc. which are referred to as the new type of occupational diseases to the workers. It is the real situation that the workers to use VDT is complaining of the physical inconvenience sense in the recent newspaper and literature, it is the point of time that the sydrome to come from VDT use and computer terminal disease, etc. must be classified into the occupational disease(Lee, Kwang Young 1990, Lee, Kyoo Hak 1990, Lee, Won Ho 1991, Lee, Si Young 1991, Lee, Joon 1991, Choi, Young Tae 1991, Heo, Seung Ho 1989). In addition, it is the real situation that the scientifitic study result about the scope that electromagnetic waves has influence on the human body has not been suggested yet, and criticism on the stable exposure permission standard about electromagnetic waves to be emitted from VDT and on the problem in the health about electromagnetic waves is continuing. (IEEE Spectrum, 1990). In addition according to the experience of nursery business of industry field, it is the real situation that the patients who consult complaining of physical and mental inconvenience sence, among the users of apparatus of office automation, are reaching 10% of the patients coming to doctor's room. Therefore, it is necessary to confirm the self-consciousness symptom that the clerical workers complain of multilaterally with the actual state examination about the use of the apparatuses of offices automaton. Thus, this study was tried as th basic data for the cosultation and education for the maintenance and furtherance of the health of workers as the nurse of industry field, by confirming the contents of self-consciousness symptom attendant upon the use of the apparatus for office outomation making the financial institution in which the spparatus for office automation in most frequently used as the subject, and by examining whether there is the difference according to the subject of study, the data were collected, by using the questionnaire method, making 200 workers who consented to the study participation as the subject, among the persons who have spent over 3 months since they used the apparatuses for office automation and didn't receive the treatment in hospital due to the clerical disease for recent 3 years. The period of data collection was from Oct. 9, 1991 to Oct. 12. As for the measurement instrument about the complaint if self-consciousness symptom attendant upon the use of apparatuses fo office automation, the question item on the complaint symptom of health problem attendant upon the treatment of VDT that Kim(1991) developed and on CMI health problem and the question items on the fatigue degree due to industry were used by previous examination to 25 persons. Collected data were analyzed with the statistical method such as percentage, arithmetic mean, Person correlation coeffient, Kai square verfication, t-test, ANOVA, etc. by using SPSS/PC+ program, and the result is as follows : 1. The self-consciousness symptom that the clerical workers complained of most frequetly appeared high in 'My eyes are tired'(99.4%), 'I feel fatigue and weariness'(99.4%), 'I feel that my head is heavy5(90.0%), 'eyesight fell'(88.8%), 'I have a stiff neck'(88.8%), 'I fell pain in the shoulder'(85.0%), 'I feel cold and painful in the eyes'(76.9%), 'I feel the dry sense of eyeball'(76.2%), 'My nerves are edgy, and I an fretful, (75.6%), 'I feel pain in the waist'(73.2%) and 'I fell pain in the back'(72.8%). It emerged that the subject use the apparatuses for office automation complained of self-consciousness symptoms related to visual symptoms and musculoskeletal symptoms. 2. As for the general feature of examination subjects, the result to see the distribution by classifying into sex, age, school career, use career of apparatuses for office automation, skillfulness degree of the use of apparatus for office automation, use hours of the apparatuses for office automation per 1 day, type of business of the apparatus for office automation, rest hours during the use of apparatus for office automation, satifaction degree of business of office automation, and work circumstance, etc. emerged as follows : As for the sex of subjects, the distribution showed that men were 58.8% and women were 41.3%, Age was average 26.9. As the distribution of school career, the distribution showed that4below the graduation of high school' was 58.8%, 'graduation from junior college-university' was 35.0%, and 'over graduate school' was 6.3%. In the question to ask the existence or non-existence of experience of health consultation in connection with the work of office automation, the response that I had the consultation exprience and I feel the necessity emergerd as 90.1% And, the case that the subject who didn't wear the glasses or lens before using the OA apparatus wear glasses or lens after using OA apparatus emerged as 28.3% of whole. As for the existence or non-existence of use career of OA apparatus, the case under 3 years was highest as 52. 7%. As for the skillfulnness degree about the use of apparatus for office automation, most of them are skillful with the fact that 'common' was 44.4%, 'skill' was 42.5%, and 'unskillful' was 13.1% As for the use average hours of the apparatus for office automation per 1 day, the distribution showed that the case under 3-6 hours was 33.1%, the case under 6-9 hours was 28.1%, the case under 3 hours was 30.6%, and the case over 9 hours was 8.1% Main OA business and the use hours for 1 day showed in the order of keeping and retrieval, business of information transmission(162min), business of information transmission(79.3 min), business of document framing(55.5 min), and business of duplication and printing(25.4min). as for the rest during the use of apparatus for affice automation, that I take rest occasion demands the major portion, but that I take after completing the work emerged as 33.8%. Though the subiness gets to be convenient by the use of the apparatus for of office automation, respondents who showed the dissatisfaction about the present OA business emergd high as 78.1%. The work circumstances of each office was good with the fact that the temperature of office was 21.8, noise was average 42.7db, and the illumination was average 364.4 lx, in the light of ANSi/HFS 100 Standard. 3. Sight syptom, musculoskeletal symptom, skin and other symptoms showed the significant difference according to the extent of skillfulness of the apparatus for office automation. All the symptoms exept skin symptom showed the difference according to the use hours of the apparatus for office automation. All the question items exept the sytoms of digestive organs and the rest hours during the apparatus for office automation showed the signicant difference. The question item which showed the signicant difference from the satisfaction degree of present OA business showed the significant difference from all the question item classified into 6 groups. But, age and school career didn't significant difference from the complaint of any self-consciousness symptoms.

    . In conclusion, the self-consciousness symptoms of the subjects to use OA apparatus appeared differently, according to sex distiction, skillfull degree of OA apparatus, use hours of OA apparatus, the rest hours during th use of OA apparatus, and the satiafaction degree of persent business. Therefore, it is necessary that the nurse in the inuctry field must recognize to receive the education about the human technological physical condition which is most proper for te use of OA apparatus and about the proper rest method until they get accustomed to the use of OA apparatus. In addition, the simple exercise relax the tention of muscle due to the repetitive simple movement, and the education for the protection of eyesight are necessary.

    • Today most developed countries provide modern medical care for most of the population. The rural area is the more neglected area in the medical and health field. In public health, the philosophy is that medical care for in maintenance of health is a basic right of man; it should not be discriminated against racial, environmental or financial situations. The deficiency of the medical care system, cultural bias, economic development, and ignorance of the residents about health care brought about the shortage of medical personnel and facilities on the rural areas. Moreover, medical students and physicians have been taught less about rural health care than about urban health care. Medical care, therefore, is insufficient in terms of health care personnel/and facilities in rural areas. Under such a situation, there is growing concern about the health problems among the rural population. The findings presented in this report are useful measures of the major health problems and even more important, as a guide to planning for improved medical care systems. It is hoped that findings from this study will be useful to those responsible for improving the delivery of health service for the rural population. Objectives: -to determine the health status of the residents in the rural areas. -to assess the rural population's needs in terms of health and medical care. -to make recommendations concerning improvement in the delivery of health and medical care for the rural population. Procedures: For the sampling design, the ideal would be to sample according to the proportion of the composition age-groups. As the health problems would be different by group, the sample was divided into 10 different age-groups. If the sample were allocated by proportion of composition of each age group, some age groups would be too small to estimate the health problem. The sample size of each age-group population was 100 people/age-groups. Personal interviews were conducted by specially trained medical students. The interviews dealt at length with current health status, medical care problems, utilization of medical services, medical cost paid for medical care and attitudes toward health. In addition, more information was gained from the public health field, including environmental sanitation, maternal and child health, family planning, tuberculosis control, and dental health. The sample Sample size was one fourth of total population: 1,438 The aged 10-14 years showed the largest number of 254 and the aged under one year was the smallest number of 81. Participation in examination Examination sessions usually were held in the morning every Tuesday, Wenesday, and Thursday for 3 hours at each session at the Namchun Health station. In general, the rate of participation in medical examination was low especially in ages between 10-19 years old. The highest rate of participation among are groups was the under one year age-group by 100 percent. The lowest use rate as low as 3% of those in the age-groups 10-19 years who are attending junior and senior high school in Taegu city so the time was not convenient for them to recieve examinations. Among the over 20 years old group, the rate of participation of female was higher than that of males. The results are as follows: A. Publie health problems Population: The number of pre-school age group who required child health was 724, among them infants numbered 96. Number of eligible women aged 15-44 years was 1,279, and women with husband who need maternal health numbered 700. The age-group of 65 years or older was 201 needed more health care and 65 of them had disabilities. (Table 2). Environmental sanitation: Seventy-nine percent of the residents relied upon well water as a primary source of dringking water. Ninety-three percent of the drinking water supply was rated as unfited quality for drinking. More than 90% of latrines were unhygienic, in structure design and sanitation (Table 15). Maternal and child health: Maternal health Average number of pregnancies of eligible women was 4 times. There was almost no pre- and post-natal care. Pregnancy wastage Still births was 33 per 1,000 live births. Spontaneous abortion was 156 per 1,000 live births. Induced abortion was 137 per 1,000 live births. Delivery condition More than 90 percent of deliveries were conducted at home. Attendants at last delivery were laymen by 76% and delivery without attendants was 14%. The rate of non-sterilized scissors as an instrument used to cut the umbilical cord was as high as 54% and of sickles was 14%. The rate of difficult delivery counted for 3%. Maternal death rate estimates about 35 per 10,000 live births. Child health Consultation rate for child health was almost non existant. In general, vaccination rate of children was low; vaccination rates for children aged 0-5 years with BCG and small pox were 34 and 28 percent respectively. The rate of vaccination with DPT and Polio were 23 and 25% respectively but the rate of the complete three injections were as low as 5 and 3% respectively. The number of dead children was 280 per 1,000 living children. Infants death rate was 45 per 1,000 live births (Table 16), Family planning: Approval rate of married women for family planning was as high as 86%. The rate of experiences of contraception in the past was 51%. The current rate of contraception was 37%. Willingness to use contraception in the future was as high as 86% (Table 17). Tuberculosis control: Number of registration patients at the health center currently was 25. The number indicates one eighth of estimate number of tuberculosis in the area. Number of discharged cases in the past accounted for 79 which showed 50% of active cases when discharged time. Rate of complete treatment among reasons of discharge in the past as low as 28%. There needs to be a follow up observation of the discharged cases (Table 18). Dental problems: More than 50% of the total population have at least one or more dental problems. (Table 19) B. Medical care problems Incidence rate: 1. In one month Incidence rate of medical care problems during one month was 19.6 percent. Among these health problems which required rest at home were 11.8 percent. The estimated number of patients in the total population is 1,206. The health problems reported most frequently in interviews during one month are: GI trouble, respiratory disease, neuralgia, skin disease, and communicable disease-in that order, The rate of health problems by age groups was highest in the 1-4 age group and in the 60 years or over age group, the lowest rate was the 10-14 year age group. In general, 0-29 year age group except the 1-4 year age group was low incidence rate. After 30 years old the rate of health problems increases gradually with aging. Eighty-three percent of health problems that occured during one month were solved by primary medical care procedures. Seventeen percent of health problems needed secondary care. Days rested at home because of illness during one month were 0.7 days per interviewee and 8days per patient and it accounts for 2,161 days for the total productive population in the area. (Table 20) 2. In a year The incidence rate of medical care problems during a year was 74.8%, among them health problems which required rest at home was 37 percent. Estimated number of patients in the total population during a year was 4,600. The health problems that occured most frequently among the interviewees during a year were: Cold (30%), GI trouble (18), respiratory disease (11), anemia (10), diarrhea (10), neuralgia (10), parasite disease (9), ENT (7), skin (7), headache (7), trauma (4), communicable disease (3), and circulatory disease (3) -in that order. The rate of health problems by age groups was highest in the infants group, thereafter the rate decreased gradually until the age 15-19 year age group which showed the lowest, and then the rate increased gradually with aging. Eighty-seven percent of health problems during a year were solved by primary medical care. Thirteen percent of them needed secondary medical care procedures. Days rested at home because of illness during a year were 16 days per interviewee and 44 days per patient and it accounted for 57,335 days lost among productive age group in the area (Table 21). Among those given medical examination, the conditions observed most frequently were respiratory disease, GI trouble, parasite disease, neuralgia, skin disease, trauma, tuberculosis, anemia, chronic obstructive lung disease, eye disorders-in that order (Table 22). The main health problems required secondary medical care are as fellows: (previous page). Utilization of medical care (treatment) The rate of treatment by various medical facilities for all health problems during one month was 73 percent. The rate of receiving of medical care of those who have health problems which required rest at home was 52% while the rate of those who have health problems which did not required rest was 61 percent (Table 23). The rate of receiving of medical care for all health problems during a year was 67 percent. The rate of receiving of medical care of those who have health problems which required rest at home was 82 percent while the rate of those who have health problems which did not required rest was as low as 53 percent (Table 24). Types of medical facilitied used were as follows: Hospital and clinics: 32-35% Herb clinics: 9-10% Drugstore: 53-58% Hospitalization Rate of hospitalization was 1.7% and the estimate number of hospitalizations among the total population during a year will be 107 persons (Table 25). Medical cost: Average medical cost per person during one month and a year were 171 and 2,800 won respectively. Average medical cost per patient during one month and a year were 1,109 and 3,740 won respectively. Average cost per household during a year was 15,800 won (Table 26, 27). Solution measures for health and medical care problems in rural area: A. Health problems which could be solved by paramedical workers such as nurses, midwives and aid nurses etc. are as follows: 1. Improvement of environmental sanitation 2. MCH except medical care problems 3. Family planning except surgical intervention 4. Tuberculosis control except diagnosis and prescription 5. Dental care except operational intervention 6. Health education for residents for improvement of utilization of medical facilities and early diagnosis etc. B. Medical care problems 1. Eighty-five percent of health problems could be solved by primary care procedures by general practitioners. 2. Fifteen percent of health problems need secondary medical procedures by a specialist. C. Medical cost Concidering the economic situation in rural area the amount of 2,062 won per residents during a year will be burdensome, so financial assistance is needed gorvernment to solve health and medical care problems for rural people.

    • 배 경: 기관지 천식은 기도에 발현된 복합적인 세포성 혹은 화학-매개물 등의 영향으로 기도내 만성적인 면역학적 염증을 보이는 기저병리를 특정으로 하며 이러한 결과로서 기도과민성을 포함한 기관지수축에 따른 호흡기 증세를 나타내므로 기도내 염증조절이 중요하게 인식되고 있다. 기침형 천식은 뚜렷한 호흡곤란이나 천명음없이 주로 만성기침만을 호소하며 기도 과민을 특징적으로 보인다. 스테로이드는 대표적인 항염증 흡입제로 인정되고 있으며 nedocromil sodium은 cromolyn에 비해 효과적인 항염증제로 알려져있다. 저자들은 기침형 천식환자들에서 전향적으로 흡입 항염증제 치료에 따른 기도과민도 변화 경과를 관찰하고 기도과민도 호전여부에 영향을 미치는 인자들을 평가하고자 하였으며 기침형 천식환자에서 nedocromil의 치료 효과를 평가하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 기침형 천식환자 61명을 대상으로 전향적으로 조사하였다. 23명에서 budesonide ($400{\mu}g{\times}2/day$), 22명에서 nedocromil($4mg{\times}2/day$) 군에 속하였으며 16명에서 병합치료를 하였다. 기도과민성은 DeVilbiss 646 Dosimeter를 이용한 메타콜린 기관지 유발검사로 평가하였다. 증세변화여부는 본조사에서 정해진 양식에 따라 문진하여 증세-점수도를 산출하여 평가하였다. 각군에서 2 개월간 흡입치료후 시행된 기관지유발검사 결과 양성반응을 보이는 경우 임의로 비-관해군(non-responder)으로 정하여 이들을 대상으로 각각 치료후 4 개월 혹은 6개월째에 기관지유발검사를 재시행, 평가하였다. 결 과: 각군간의 평균 연령 및 성별에는 차이가 없었으며 기침발현 평균기간은 각각 7.5, 4.5, 5.4년으로 차이가 없었다. 각군에서 내원당시 평균흡연력 및 평균 FEV1% 치는 차이가 없었으며 내원당시 메타콜린 PC20(mg/ml) 평균치는 각각 3.0, 4.8, 2.9으로 각 군간에 차이는 없었다. 각군에서 내원당시 증세-점수도간에 차이는 없었다. 치료 2개월째 기도 과민도 관해를 보인 정도는 budesonide 군에서 30.4%, nedocromil 군 31.8%, 병합치료군에서 37.5%로 각 군간에 차이가 없었다(p=0.95). 각군에서 기도 과민도는 2개월 치료후 내원당시에 비해 각각 4.24, 2.44, 6.91 배로 유의하게 감소하였으며(p<0.05), 증세-점수도는 각군에서 유의하게 감소하여(p<0.05) 증세 호전을 보였다. 치료 2개월째 기도 과민도의 관해를 보이지 않았던 환자들에서 메타콜린 축적용량단위 및 증세-점수도는 내원당시에 비해 2개월째에 유의한 호전을 보였으나(p<0.01) 각각 4개월 혹은 6개월째 재평가한 결과 2개월째와는 차이가 없었다. 치료 2 개월째 기도 과민도 관해를 보인군에서 혈중 총 IgE, 말초혈액 호산구수 및 피부반응 양성율은 관해를 보이지 않았던 군과 차이가 없었으나 치료시작전 증세발현기간 정도, 흡연력, 연령, 성별 등에서는 양군간에 유의한 차이를 보였으며(p<0.05) 내원당시 메탈콜린 PC20 치는 관해군에서 유의하게 높은 결과를 보였다(p<0.01). 결 론: 치료 2개월째에 기도 과민도 관해를 보이지 못한 군에서는 이후의 관찰기간동안 기도 과민도 및 증세-점수도는 각각 2개월째와 차이가 없었으며 치료시작전 증세발현기간, 연령, 흡연력, 성별, PC20 등은 기도 과민도 관해에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 사료되었다. 기침형 천식환자에서 병합치료가 budesonide나 nedocromil 단독치료에 비해 우월하지 않는 것으로 사료되었다.

    • 본 연구는 이종간 핵이식란의 생산성 향상에 기여하기 위한 기초연구로서 핵이식 수정란의 융합과 활성화 과정에 있어서 수핵난자 및 전기적 융합조건이 핵이식 수정란의 융합 및 체외 발달에 미치는 요인들을 조사하기 위하여 실시하였다. 도축되어지는 소 및 돼지의 난소에서 난포란을 채취하여 TCM-199 및 NCSU-23에 혈청 및 호르몬을 첨가하여 39$^{\circ}C$, 5% CO$_2$ 배양기내에서 24 및 48시간 체외성숙을 실시하여 수핵난자를 준비하고, 공여세포의 준비는 산양의 귀세포를 채취하여 0.25% Trypsin-EDTA의 처리로 세포를 분리, 배양하여 사용하였으며, 계대배양과 함께 세포는 TCM-199 + 10% FBS + 10% DMSO로 동결을 실시하였다. 핵이식은 성숙된 난자의 극체 및 전핵을 laser system으로 투명대를 drilling 하여 제거하고 준비된 공여세포를 핵이 제거된 난자에 주입하여 전기적 자극으로 융합을 실시하여 융합된 난자는 전기적 자극으로 활성화를 유도하였다. 활성화가 이루어진 복제 수정란은 수핵란이 소난자의 경우 monolayer가 형성된 10% FBS가 첨가된 TCM199 배양액에서 7∼9일 동안 체외배양하였으며, 수핵란이 돼지의 경우 10% FBS가 첨가된 NCSU-3 배양액으로 6∼8일 동안 체외배양을 실시하여 배반포기로 유도하였다. 본 연구에서 얻은 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 전기자극의 세기를 1.95 kv/cm와 2.10 kv/cm로 주었을 때 수핵란이 소 난자의 경우 융합율은 47.7및 44.6%였으며, 분할율도 41.9 및 54.5%로써 차이가 없었다. 수핵란이 돼지 난자인 경우는 융합율은 51.3 및 46.1%로써 차이가 없었으며, 분할율도 75.0및 84.9%로써 차이가 없었다. 전기자극 시간을 30 또는 60${\mu}$sec, 횟수는 1 또는 2회 주었을 때 수핵란이 소 난자의 경우 융합율은 30 ${\mu}$sec 1회(50.8%) 와 2회(31.0%) 간에 차이가 없었으나, 60${\mu}$sec 1회(19.3%)가 가장 낮았다(P<0.05). 융합란의 분할율은 30${\mu}$sec 1회(53.3%)와 2회(50.0%) 간에 차이가 없었으나, 60${\mu}$sec 1회(18.2%)보다 유의적(P<0.05)으로 높게 나타났다. 돼지 난자의 경우 융합율은 30${\mu}$sec 1회(48.1%), 2회(45.2%)및 60${\mu}$sec 1회(48.6%)간에 차이가 없었으며, 분할율은 30${\mu}$sec 1회(78.4%)와 60${\mu}$sec 1회 (79.4%)간에 차이가 없었으나, 30${\mu}$sec 2회(53.6%)보다 유의적(P<0.05)으로 높게 나타났다. 이종간 핵이식란의 체외발달에 있어서 수핵란이 소 난자의 경우 상실배와 배반포기로의 발달율이 22.6%로써 단위발생란 30.6%와 차이가 없었으며, 돼지 난자의 경우는 이종간 핵이식란이 5.1%로써 단위발생란 37.4%보다 유의적(P<0.05)으로 낮게 나타났다. 이상의 실험결과로 보아 산양의 체세포를 이용한 이종간 핵이식 복제수정란의 생산을 위하여 수핵란으로 소와 돼지를 사용하여 복제수정란의 발달을 확인할 수 있었으며, 이종간 핵이식에 있어서 수핵란, 공여세포, 융합, 활성화 및 배양조건 등 아직 초보 수준에 있으며, 앞으로 보다 많은 연구를 통하여 이러한 문제들이 해결되면 멸종위기 상태에 있는 동물들의 종 보존에도 활용이 가능할 것으로 생각된다.
