광용적맥파(photoplethysmogram, PPG)는 심장의 수축과 이완으로 변화하는 혈액용적(blood volume)과 혈액내의 헤모글로빈에 흡수되는 빛의 양의 선형적 관계를 이용하여 신호를 획득하는 방법이다. 본 논문에서는 PPG 센서를 이용하여 질환 예측을 할 수 있는 시스템을 제안하였다. 본 시스템은 PPG 센서를 이용하여 심박수의 변이를 살펴볼 수 있는 심박수 변이 분석과 이전 심박수와 이후 심박수를 구분지어 그래프로 표현하는 심박수 분포를 보여준다. 또한 심박수를 스펙트럼 분석하여 자율신경계 균형도, 가속도 맥파로부터 혈관 상태를 분석하여 심혈관 질환을 조기 예측하는 개인용 컴퓨터 기반의 시스템을 설계하고 구현하였다.

Rheum palmatum L. has been used for treatment of hypertension, lipemia, and paramenia in the oriental gerbal medicines for a long time. We have examined the relaxational response to the water extract of Rheum palmaum L. in isolated thoracic aorta from sprague dawley (SD) rat in the presence and absence of endothelium. Rat thoracic aorta was investigated in vessel segments suspended for isometric tension recording by polygraph. Responses to Rhizoma Rhei were investigated in vessels precontracted with 5-hydroxytryptamine. We found that the ghoracic aorta segments responded to the water extract of Rheum palmatum L. (ERP) with a dose-dependent vasorelaxation. We found that 1.The thoracic aorta sehments responded to ERP with a dose-dependent vasodiliation. 2.The 5-HT induced contraction at 10$\^$-4/M were inhibited by 85.8% after addition of the 0.1 g/mL water extract of ERP. 3. The 5-HT induced contraction at 10$\^$-4/ M with and without endothelium were inhibited by 86.4% and 85.8% after addition of the 0.1g/mL ERP. 4. After pre-treatment of the thoracic aorta with 10$\^$-4/M N$\^$G/-monomethyl-L-arginine(L-NMMA), inducible niric oxide synthase inhibitor, the vessels has not response to the contraction. In conclusion, ERP induced reaxation in the isolated rat thoracic aorta were composed of dose-dependent relaxation. and it has potent vasodilation.

어종에 따라 혈관의 긴장도 조절은 다양한 신경전달물질에 의하여 조절되고 있다. 그러나 아직 대부분의 어종에서 자율신경계 신경전달물질 및 혈관긴장도 조절인자들의 기능에 대하여 명확하게 규명되어 있지 않다. 본 연구는 아직 연구되지 않은 분야인 이스라엘잉어에서의 자율신경계 신경전달물질들의 혈관긴장도 조절에서의 역할을 규명하고자 적출복대동맥을 이용하여 시험하였다. 이 적출혈관에서 아세틸콜린 (ACh)은 정상혈관과 미리 일정수준 수축시킨 혈관 모두에서 수축을 유발하였으며 수축작용은 무스카린성 길항제인 아트로핀에 의해 거의 완벽하게 차단되었다. 여러 가지 아드레날린성 수용체를 동시에 흥분시키는 내인성 물질인 에피네프린 (Epi)은 혈관의 조건에 상관없이 이완반응을 유발하였다. 그러나 유사한 내인성물질인 노르에피네프린 (NE)은 정상혈관에서는 미약한 수축율, 미리수축된 혈관에서는 이완작용을 유발하였다. 한편 ${\alpha}_1$ 아드레날린성 수용체 흥분제인 페닐에프린은 수축을, $\beta$수용체 홍분제인 이소프로테레놀은 이완을 각각 유발하였으며 ${\alpha}_2$수용체 흥분제인 클로니딘은 아무런 반응을 유발하지 않았다. Epi, NE 및 이소프로테레놀에 의해 유발된 혈관이완 반응은 $\beta$ 아드레날린성 수용체 길항제인 프로프라놀롤에 의해 유의하게 억제되었다. 따라서 살아있는 상태의 이스라엘 잉어에서는 ACh는 주로 무스카린성 수용체 활성화에 의한 혈관을 수축하는 기능을, Epi과 NE는 $\beta$수용체 흥분에 의한 이완작용을 각각 발휘하는 것으로 판단된다.

Contractile responses of myocardium and vascular smooth muscle to angiotensin II were studied in isolated rabbit papillary muscles and aortic helical strips, with respect to the sensitivity and the mechanism of action. All experiments were performed in $HCO-_3\;-buffered Tyrode solution which was aerated with $3%\;CO_2-97%\;O_2$ and kept pH 7.35 at $35^{\circ}C$. Action potentials were measured by conventional microelectrode technique in the papillary muscles. Helical strips of vascular smooth muscle were prepared from the descending thoracic aorta of the rabbit. Angiotensin II elicited a positive inotropic effect in doses from $10^{-8}$ to $10^{-6}\;M$, and this effect was dose-dependent and characterized by a symmetrical increase of maximum dP/dt during contraction and relaxation phase. Slow responses (or slow action potentials) were induced by A. II $(10^{-6}\;M)$ in the papillary muscle hypopolarized by 27 mM $K^+$. These A. II-induced slow action potentials were eliminated by verapamil (2 mg/l), but not affected by propranolol $(10^{-5}\;M)$. In aortic helical strips, contractile force was increased dose-dependently in the range of $10^{-10}{\sim}10^{-7}\;M$ A. II. $ED_{50}$ in aorta was $3{\times}10^{-9}\;M$ A. II, whereas that in paillary muscle was $2.5{\times}10^{-7}\;M$ A. II. A. II contracted vascular smooth muscle in depolarizing concentration of $K^+$ (100 mM $K^+$), and also produced a sustained contraction even in the presence of verapamil and regitine. The results of this experiment suggest that the primarily important physiological role of A. II is the action on the blood vessel, and the positive inotropic effect of A. II in papillary muscle results from the increase of slow inward $Ca^{++}$ current, and that A. II-induced contraction of aorta is independent of transmembrane potential and associated with promoting bet transmembrane $Ca^{++}\;-influx$ and the mobilization of cellular $Ca^{++}$.

Objective : The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of HwangRyunHaeDok-Tang and combinations of constituent herbs on the arterial contraction. Methods : In order to investigate the effects Scutellariae Radix. Coptidis Rhizoma, Phellodendri Cortex and Gardeniae Fructus, in which one of them, two of them, and all of them, were used to exam. Results : The results were summarized as follows; 1. HwangRyunHaeDok-Tang significantly inhibited the contraction of artery induced by Norepinephrine(NE). However the atonic effect was slightly blunted when the vascular endothelial cell was removed. No significant change in the atonic effect of HwangRyunHaeDok-Tang was found when $_L-NNA$ was used as a preliminary treatment. These results indicate that the vascular atonic effect by HwangRyunHaeDok-Tang is slightly dependent on the endothelial cell, and that the HwangRyunHaeDok-Tang works directly to the vascular smooth muscle in creating the vascular atonic effect. 2. The pretreatment of HwangRyunHaeDok-Tang extract significantly inhibited the contractile response to additive application of $Ca^{2+}$ in the strips which were contracted by NE in $Ca^{2+}$-free solution. 3. HwangRyunHaeDok-Tang extract increased the contraction of arterial smooth muscle induced by KCl. Therefore, it can be concluded that HwangRyunHaeDok-Tang may block the NE-receptor or receptor-operated $Ca^{2+}$ channel. 4. It was determined that Scutellariae Radix, Coptidis Rhizoma and Phellodendri Cortex among the ingredients of HwangRyunHaeDok-Tang have a vascular atonic effect. In addition, those ingredients plays a role in strengthening the atonic effect by working with other herbal medicines. Gardeniae Fructus causes the blood vessel to contract. but it does not influence the atonic effects of other herbal medicines. However Gardeniae Fructus tends to inhibit the vascular atonic effect of Phellodendri Cortex. Conclusion : Based on the above results, it can be said that HwangRyunHaeDok-Tang can be applied to cure hypertension considering those three herbs have significant effects of relaxation.
