Purpose: This study aimed to determine the effects of a 12-week metabolic syndrome BeHaS (Be Happy and Strong) program in elderly people with metabolic syndrome living alone, based on a community-based participatory research (CBPR). Methods: A nonequivalent control group pre-posttest design was used, and the participants were 43 elderly people living alone (experimental group 24, control group 19). The experimental group received a one-hour program per week and two individual health consultations during 12 weeks. The control group received two sessions about the metabolic syndrome and two individual health consultations. The effects of health behavior, blood pressure, blood sugar levels, abdominal circumference, triglycerides, and self-esteem were evaluated. The data were analyzed using the independent t-test and Mann-Whitney U test. Results: The health behavior with respect to the metabolic syndrome in the experimental group increased significantly (t = - 3.19, p = .002). Both diastolic blood pressure and abdominal circumference decreased in the experimental group (t = 2.00, p = .028 and t = 3.91, p < .001). No significant differences were observed between the groups in systolic blood pressure, fasting blood sugar levels, triglycerides, and self-esteem. Conclusion: The 12-week metabolic syndrome BeHaS program using community resources improves the health of elderly people with metabolic syndrome living alone. Based on these findings, further studies on the effectiveness of the metabolic syndrome BeHaS program and the experiences of those who participated in the CBPR are warranted.

배경: 식도-위 접합부에 존재하는 고압력대는 위-식도 역류를 예방하는 중요한 역할을 하는데 주로 하부 식도 괄약근이 관여한다. 그러나 하부 식도괄약근이 제거된 환자에서 횡격막 crura가 고압력대로 나타나 괄약양의 역할을 하는 지를 알아보기 위하여 식도 내압을 측정하였다. 대상 및 방법: 식도-위 절제술을 시행받은 환자 22명과 대조군으로 정상 성인 3명을 대상으로 식도 내압을 측정하였다 결과: 대조군은 3명 전원에서, 환자는 22명중 12명에서 고압력대가 나타났는데 Ivor-Lewis법 수술을 시행받은 환자보다는 좌측 개흉을 시행받은 환자에서 많이 나타났다. 고압력대의 위치는 환자군에서 비강으로부터 42.5$\pm$0.9cm로 대조군과 비슷한 위치에서 나타났으나, 길이는 2.13$\pm$0.6cm로 대조군 보다 짧았다. 고압력대의 압력은 station pull-through technique(SPT), rapid pull-through technique(RH)에 의해 측정한 결과 각각 13.78$\pm$1.63mmHg, 28.58$\pm$6.06 mmHg로 대조군 보다낮았으며, 부분적으로 연하에 의해 이완되고(84.4%), 복압증가에 의해 수축하는 양상을 보였다. 결론: 하부 식도 괄약근이 제거된 경우에도 횡격막 crura에 의해 흉복부 접합부에 고압력대가 나타나며, 이 횡격막 crura가 괄약양 역할을 하기 때문에 식도-위 절제술후 손상된 횡격막 crura의 복구를 시행함으로써 위-식도 역류를 감소시킬 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of $21^{\circ}C\;CO_2$ and $37^{\circ}C\;CO_2$ pneumoperitoneum on body temperature, blood pressure, heart rate, and acid-base balance. Methods: Data were collected at a 1300-bed university hospital in Incheon, from February through September 2012. A total of 74 patients who underwent laparoscopic colectomy under general anesthesia with desflurane were randomly allocated to either a control group or an experimental group. The control group received $21^{\circ}C\;CO_2$ pneumoperitoneum; the experimental group received $37^{\circ}C\;CO_2$ pneumoperitoneum. The pneumoperitoneum of the two groups was under abdominal pressure 15 mmHg. Body temperature, systolic blood pressure, heart rate and acid-base balance were assessed at 30 minutes and 90 minutes after pneumoperitoneum, and again at 30 minutes after arriving at the Post Anesthesia Care Unit. Results: Body temperature in the $37^{\circ}C\;CO_2$ pneumoperitoneum group was significantly higher (F= 9.43, p< .001) compared to the $21^{\circ}C\;CO_2$ group. However, there were no statistically significant differences in systolic blood pressure (p= .895), heart rate (p= .340), pH (p= .231), PaCO2 (p= .490) and HCO3- (p= .768) between the two groups. Conclusion: Pneumoperitoneum of $37^{\circ}C\;CO_2$ is effective for the increase of body temperature compared to pneumoperitonium of $21^{\circ}C\;CO_2$, and it does not result in a decrease of blood pressure, heart rate or acid-base imbalance.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to confirm the association among the health status, health behaviors, and periodontitis according to total, age and sex in cases of adult metabolic syndrome(MetS). Methods: This cross-sectional study used collected data from the 7^th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) conducted from 2016 to 2018 with 3,394 adults with MetS aged 19-79 years. The complex samples logistic regression analysis confirmed the relevant factors for periodontitis. Results:Periodontitis was diagnosed in 43.6% of all MetS cases. Diabetes (Odds Ratio [OR]=1.554), abdominal obesity (OR=1.336), current smoking (OR=2.465), past smoking (OR=1.379), and not-using oral care products (OR=1.414) were associated with periodontitis in MetS. In the age of 19-39 years with MetS group, diabetes (OR=5.379), elevated blood pressure (OR=3.975), current smoking (OR=7.430), and not using oral care products (OR=3.356) were associated with periodontitis. In the 40-79 age group, diabetes (OR=1.398), abdominal obesity (OR=1.360), current smoking (OR=2.022), and not using oral care products (OR=1.416) were associated with periodontitis. In the male MetS group, current smoking (OR=3.119), past smoking (OR=1.625), and brushing teeth more than three times (OR=0.743) were associated with periodontitis. In the female MetS group, diabetes (OR=1.733), impaired fasting glucose (OR=1.434), abdominal obesity (OR=1.479), and not using oral care products (OR=1.992) were associated with periodontitis. Conclusions: Improvement in blood sugar control, obesity, smoking cessation, and oral health education, including how to use oral care products in all individuals with MetS may result in improved oral health. In addition, improvement in elevated blood pressure in the MetS group aged under 40 years, and brushing teeth more than three times a day in the male MetS group can reduce the risk of periodontitis. Therefore, public and oral health professionals should emphasize on the relationship between age and sex during the metabolic syndrome management program and share relevant information with patients.

Various factors influencing the lymph flow from thoracic duct were investigated in an attempt to evaluate their contributing degree and the mechanisms. Sixteen mongrel dogs weighing between 10 and 16 kg were anesthetized and polyethylene catheters were inserted into the thoracic duct and femoral veins. Arterial blood pressure, heart rate, central venous pressure, lymph pressure and lymph flow were measured under various conditions. Electrical stimulation of left sciatic nerve, stepwise increase of central venous pressure, manual application of rhythmical depressions onto abdomen, injection of hypertonic saline solution and histamine infusion were employed. Measurement of cental venous pressure was performed through the recording catheter inserted into abdominal inferior vena cava. Changes in central venous pressure were made by an air-ballooning catheter located higher than the tip of the recording catheter in the inferior vena cava. Lymph flow from thoracic duct was measured directly with a graduated centrifuge tube allowing the lymph to flow freely outward through the inserted cannula. The average side pressure of thoracic lymph was $1.1\;cmH_2O$ and lymph flow was 0.40 ml/min or 1.9 ml/kg-hr. Hemodynamic parameters including lymph flow were measure immediately before and after (or during) applying a condition. Stimulation of left sciatic nerve with a square wave (5/sec, 2 msec, 10V) caused the lymph flow to increase 1.4 times. The pattern of lymph flow from thoracic duct was not continuous throughout the respiratory cycle, but was continuous only during Inspiration. Slow and deep respiration appeared to increase the lymph flow than a rapid and shallow respiration. Relationship between central venous pressure and the lymph flow revealed a relatively direct proportionality; Regression equation was Lymph Flow (ml/kg-hr)=0.09 CVP$(cmH_2O)$+0.55, r=0.67. Manual depressions onto the abdomen in accordance with the respiratory cycle caused the lymph flow to increase most remarkably, e.g,. 5.5 times. The application of manual depressions showed a fluctuation of central venous pressure superimposed on the respiratory fluctuation. Hypertonic saline solution (2% NaCl) administered Intravenously by the amount of 10 m1/kg increased the lymph flow 4.6 times. The injection also increased arterial blood pressure, especially systolic Pressure, and the central venous pressure. Slow intravenous infusion of histamine with a rate of 14-32 ${\mu}g/min$ resulted in a remarkable increase in the lymph flow (4.7 times), in spite of much decrease in the blood pressure and a slight decrease in the central venous pressure.

Objectives This study is to investigate the related factors to contribute the metabolic syndrome according to Sasang Constitution. Methods Nine hundred twenty six persons out of 1774 persons, over 40 years old, participated in community-based cohort in Wonju City of South Korea from June 2006 to August 2009. The diagnosis of metabolic syndrome was carried out by NCEP-ATP III(National Cholesterol Education Program in Adult Treatment Panel III) and Asian Pacific Criteria for abdominal obesity. The related factors were checked using questionnaire and blood samples. Sasang Constitution was verified by a Sasang Constitution specialist using the results of PSSC(Phonetic System for Sasang Constitution), facial pictures and simplified Sasang Constitutional questionnaires. Metabolic syndrome incidence rate according to Sasang Constitution and binary logistic regression analysis were performed with SPSS 19.0. Results Metabolic syndrome incidence rate was 30.3% and the majority of newly categorized as metabolic syndrome was Taeeumin(40.7%). There were significant risk factors like systolic blood pressure, fasting blood sugar, triglyceride and female and a significant defense factor like HDL-cholesterol. In terms of constitutional view, there were significant risk factors like waist circumference, systolic blood pressure, triglyceride in Soyangin, female, waist circumference, systolic blood pressure, fasting blood sugar, triglyceride in Taeeumin, female, waist circumference, systolic blood pressure, triglyceride in Soeumin. And there was a significant defense factor like HDL-cholesterol in only Taeeumin. Conclusions Regimens on metabolic syndrome were considered to be changed according to Sasang Constitution. Taeeumin female and Soeumin female should be cautious of body weight and metabolic syndrome when elderly. There are more cautious risk factors in each constitution; systolic blood pressure and triglyceride in Soyangin and fasting blood sugar and serum lipids levels in Soeumin and Taeeumin.

본 연구는 농촌지역 주민들의 대사증후군 예방을 위한 영양 사업에 기초 자료를 제공하고자 안동시 읍면 지역 농촌의 45세 이상 주민을 대상으로 신체특성 및 건강관련 생활습관이 대사증후군 발생에 미치는 영향을 다항로지스틱회귀모델을 사용하여 분석하였다. 분석 대상자 1,431명 중 대사증후군 유병율은 38.2%(남자 23.5%, 여자 46.9%)로 남자에 비해 여자의 유병율이 유의적으로 높게 나타났는데 이는 폐경기 이후 여성에서의 대사증후군 비율이 증가하는 것과 관계가 있다고 할 수 있다. 대사증후군 위험인자 중 유병율이 가장 높은 요인은 혈압이었고, 다음은 낮은 HDL-콜레스테롤, 복부비만, 높은 혈당, 높은 혈중 중성지방 순으로 나타나 이 지역 주민의 대사증후군 유병율을 낮추기 위해서는 혈압을 내리고 HDL-콜레스테롤을 높이며 복부비만을 감소시킬 수 있는 방안을 모색할 필요가 있다고 생각된다. 한편, 대사증후군 위험인자를 한 개 이상 가진 사람은 94.7%, 두 개이상은 68.9%로 나타났다. 대사증후군 발생위험요인과 위험도를 분석한 결과 대사증후군 발생 위험도는 남자에 비해 여자가 2.953배 높았다. 체지방율의 경우 정상체중에 비해 비만에서 남녀 각각 5.786배와 13.498배 대사증후군의 위험이 높았으며, 체질량지수로는 정상체중에 비해 비만에서 남녀 각각 3.782배, 13.301배, 고도비만에서는 21.516배, 21.482배 대사증후군의 위험도가 높았다. 건강관련 습관인 흡연, 음주, 운동, 농사활동 시간은 대사증후군 발생위험요인으로 나타나지 않았다. 이상의 결과로부터, 안동 농촌지역 주민들의 대사증후군 유병율을 낮추기 위해서는 혈압과 폐경 여성들의 복부비만에 대한 철저한 관리가 필요한 것으로 생각된다. 아울러 건강관련 습관인 흡연, 음주, 운동 등이 대사증후군 발생에 미치는 영향에 대해서는 더 많은 연구가 필요하다고 사료된다
