Purpose: The purpose of this research was to examine the effects of musical therapy and the differences of two different ways of musical therapy: the closed musical therapy using a headset and the open musical therapy using cassette player. Methods: his study was designed with the non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design. The research cases were 60 spinal and epidural anesthesia surgery patients at K University Hospital in C city from January 3, to March 31, 2005. We measured trait & state anxiety, blood sugar level, vital signs. The group was divided into two: experimental and control group. Results: 1) There are no significant differences between an experimental group and a control group in homogeneity test. 2) We can see that musical therapy during operations stabilizes blood pressure, and reduces sugar level in blood, and decreases psychological anxiety. 3) And the closed musical therapy has more obvious and significant effects than the open musical therapy. Conclusion: We could conclude our study here saying musical therapy during operations is necessary in easing patients' anxieties. More advanced researches on the subject are required to prove validity of the findings in our pilot study.

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a major health issue increasing worldwide. Currently, nearby half a billion people have diabetes. Two major types of DM that type 1 and type 2-DM have different etiologies but feature a crucial common pathological transition into dysfunction of pancreatic β-cells and consequently leading hyperglycemia and finally go into DM. Therefore, maintaining of β-cells such as preventing β-cells degeneration, and promoting β-cells regeneration and proliferation will be essential approaches in prevention and/or treatment of DM. There are many reports that various types of seaweed control metabolic diseases such as obesity, high blood pressure, and blood sugar control. However, no new drug candidates have been developed yet. Additionally, although seaweed has excellent blood sugar control effects, there is no evidence that it directly proliferates or regenerates beta cells. Therefore, we studied on the promotion of β-cell regeneration by a seaweed, Polysiponia morrowii extract (PME) which preserves β-cells and maintains its function. As a result, it was confirmed that PME directly promotes the proliferation of pancreatic islet β-cells with insulin secretion function in in vivo. Therefore, PME shows potential as a candidate for β-cell regeneration that may play a fundamental role in the treatment of diabetes.

In the sequence of carbon tetrachloride hepatotoxicity, increased serum levels of a number of enzymes have been demonstrated in experimental animals. These observations, therefore, have served to help in detecting hepatic injury. The serological influence of chlorpromazine (CPZ) and iproniazid on the acute $CCl_4$ poisoning was executed in this investigation taking use of 6 albino rabbits (around 2 kg b.w.) in each group. By measuring of blood sugar level (Nelson-Somogyi method), S-GOT and S-GPT activities (Reitman-Frankel method), the pharmacological effects of the drugs was evaluated setting pretreated groups against the control. The results obtained were summarized as follows: 1. The intramuscular injection of $CCl_4$ led to increase the blood sugar level in first 3 hours and, after that, to decrease reasonably. But CPZ-pretreated group showed a tendency of increasing in compare with the control, and iproniazid-pretreated group inhibited evidently. 2. In S-GOT activity, the increased level was induced by $CCl_4$ in control. And CPZ-pretreated group showed a increased level until first day and decreased rapidly. But this property inhibited inhibited significantly by pretreating with iproniazid. 3. Although a single dose of $CCl_4$ increased the S-GPT activity, the more increasing trend was observed in CPZ-pretreated group. But these tendencies depressed remarkably in the iproniazid-pretreated group. It seemed to be attributed not to defend the $CCl_4$ toxicity but to be suppressed the enzyme systems in the liver by iproniazid that the blood sugar level and serum transaminase activities was decreased significantly in pretreating with iproniazid.

Objective: The study was conducted to assess biochemical profiles in premenopausal and postmenopausal women having breast cancer. Materials and Methods: A hospital based case control study was carried out at Manipal Teaching Hospital (MTH), Pokhara, Nepal. The analysed variables were age, metabolic profile including total cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL-C, LDL-C, blood sugar, insulin concentration, C-peptide, HbA1c and selenium. Descriptive statistics and testing of hypothesis were used for the analysis using EPI INFO and SPSS 16 software. Results: In premenopausal women, significant differences were noted for total cholesterol (P value <0.001), triglycerides (P value 0.002), HbA1c level (P value <0.001), insulin concentration (P value 0.030), C-peptide concentration (P value 0.001), and selenium (P value <0.001) between cases and controls. Insignificant results were found for HDL-C (P value 0.749), LDL-C (P value 0.933), blood sugar (P value 0.59) and BMI (P value 0.746). Similarly, significant difference in total cholesterol (P value <0.001), triglycerides (P value 0.001), LDL-C (P value <0.001), HDL-C (P value 0.025), blood sugar (P value <0.001), insulin concentration (P value <0.001), c-peptide concentration (P value <0.001), HbA1c level (P value <0.001) and selenium (P value <0.001) were observed for postmenopausal patients and controls. Conclusions: Assessing metabolic changes and their management may be important for control of breast cancer and increased survival.

홍삼청국장 추출물(RC)이 알코올을 섭취중인 당뇨흰쥐 혈당과 혈청지혈에 미치는 효과를 관찰하기 위하여 SD계 흰쥐에 streptozotocin(STZ)을 투여하여 고혈당과 고지혈증을 유발시킨 다음 홍삼청국장 추출물을 함유(g/mL)하는 $20\%$ 알코올을 매일 2 mL씩 2주간 경구투여 하였을 때의 증체량, 식이효율, 음용수 섭취량과 배뇨량, 장기중량, 혈당 및 혈청지질 함량에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 그 결과 RC의 식이는 STZ 투여에 의하여 증가되었던 음용수 섭취량과 배뇨량을 개선시키지 못하였으나, 감소하였던 증체량과 식 이 효율은 대조군 수준으로 회복시켰으며, 고혈당과 고지혈증도 유의하게 감소시켰다. RC는 당뇨 유발 후 에탄을 투여로 인한 사망률을 현저히 감소시켰다. 이러한 결과와 문헌상의 지견들을 종합해 볼 때, RC는 고혈당 및 고지혈증을 치료 및 예방함으로서 에탄을 섭취에 의한 사망률을 감소시킴과 동시에 당뇨에 의해 발생할 수 있는 당뇨 합병증을 예방 내지는 지연시켜주는 작용이 있을 것으로 생각된다.

This is to study the incidence of Diabetes and its risk factors in the impaired glucose tolerence group. 1084 subjects who had been examined 3 times for regular check-up in one human dock center under the university hospital were studied between $1986{\sim}1993$. The results are as follows; Prevalence rate of diabetes was 3.56%, and that of impaired glucose tolerence was 30.90% as of initial examination. The rate of diabetes was increasing with the age where 1.2% at age group $30{\sim}39$, 3.21% at age group $40{\sim}49$, 5.84% at age group $50{\sim}59$, 14.28% at age group 60 and over. And also the rate of impaired glucose tolerance was increasing with the age where 21.29% at age group $30{\sim}39$, 31.42% at age group $40{\sim}49$, 38.91% at age group $50{\sim}59$, 33.33% at age group 60 and over Of the examinees who were initially examined, total incidence rate of diabetes who developed to obvious diabetes at the 3rd follow-up examination from the initially impaired glucose tolerence group was 4.63% and it was 11.3 times higher than from the normal group (0.41%). After controlling for the effects of both age and obesity, the risk of subsequent diabetes for subjects with impaired glucose tolerance remained significantly higher than for normal subjects (Relative Risk, 10.48). Test for trends for developing to diabetes by the increasing level of fasting blood sugar and 1hr blood sugar at the initial examination were statistically significant in either normal and impaired glucose tolerence group. To determine the risk factor for developing to diabetes, logistic regression test was applied. Only fasting blood sugar and 1hr blood sugar were predictors for developing diabetes from the impaired glucose tolerence group at initial examination.
