This study was performed to examine the effects of DA-9601, a novel antiulcer agent extracted from Artemisiae Herba, on radiation colitis in the rat. Female Wistar rats received a 30 Gy dose of irradiation to the 2 cm of distal colon in length using an intrarectal applicator system. 30 mg/tg or 100 mg/kg of DA- 9601 was administered orally 30 min before and 4 h after radiation on day 1. And the same dose of DA-9601 was given to the animals twice a day from day 2 to 14. As a reference control, sucralfate suspension (100 or 300 mg/head) was given as an enema based on the same treatment schedule of DA-9601. Body weight change and the frequency of diarrhea were recorded during the observation period as markers of radiationinduced injury, All animals were sacrificed on day 15 for evaluation of macro- and microscopic findings and mucosal myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity. Radiated animals showed diarrhea, mucosal redness and histologic changes characterized by edema and eosinophilic infiltration of the periglandular lamina propria with loss of colonic epithelium. Radiation also significantly increased mucosal MfO activity of affected colon f\\\\\\\\`<0.05). However, most of these changes were completely protected by oral administration with DA-9601. DA-9601 reduced radiation-induced histologic alteration significantly in a dose-related manner (P<0.05). In addition, mucosal MPO activity in rats receiving high dose of DA-9601 decreased significantly when compared with that in radiated control. High dose of sucralfate (300 mg/head) alleviated radiation-induced histologic lesion, but failed to reach statistical significance. The results of this study suggest that DA-9601 can be useful for the prevention of acute clinical symptoms of radiation proctocolitis and that decrease of mucosal MPO by DA-9601 plays a role in its protective mechanism(s), at least in part.

본 연구에서는 현호색의 methanol추출물에 대하여 사염화탄소에 의한 간 손상 보호효과를 확인한 후 이를 hexane, chloroform, butanol 및 물로 계통분획하여 사염화탄소에 의한 간 손상 보호효과를 검색하였다. 이 결과 현호색 물분획물이 유의성 있는 간 보호효과를 보임으로써 간손상 보호효과를 확인하고 그 기전을 밝히고자 하였다. 그 결과 혈액중의 ALT활성 및 cholesterol함량은 사염화탄소 단독투여군에 비하여 감소하였으며 간조직의 TG와 지질과산화물 함량은 사염화탄소 단독투여군에 비하여 감소하여 사염화탄소에 의한 지방의 축적이나 세포막의 손상은 억제된 것으로 보인다. 기전연구를 위하여 측정한 CYP함량과 calcium함량은 사염화탄소 단독투여군에 비하여 감소하였으며 GST활성도는 사염화탄소 단독투여군에 비하여 증가하였다. 항산화 효소의 유도로 인하여 증가할 것으로 기대한 SOD, GPX, GST활성도는 모든 처치군에서 감소하는 경향을 보여 간손상 보호 효과는 free radical scavenging effect보다는 CYP함량의 감소와 CCB로서의 작용 및 GST활성도의 증가에 기인한 것으로 생각된다.

The diagnostic radiation equipment is managed in accordance with the "Rules for Safety Management of Diagnostic Radiation Equipment" enacted in 1995. The equipments should be inspected before use and every three years after use in accordance with the [Appendix 1] of the same rule. The inspection standard has been maintained without particular revision since enacted. But, over the past two decades new types of equipments have been manufactured and used. So, it is necessary to revise [Appendix 1] by making inspection items and inspection standards. In this study, we revised the classification system of equipments and reviewed international standards of IEC 60601 series, IEC 61223 series and AAPM TG 18 On-line Report No.03. And identified the problem of current inspection standards. Through this, we revised, deleted and added the inspection items and inspection standard of each equipment to meet the domestic circumstances. As a result of the study, we reorganized the classification system of equipment which are current classified as 5 classes into 22 classes as X-ray system etc. (7 classes), CT system etc. (5 classes) and Dental X-ray system etc. (10 classes). And then, we developed 70 inspection items for 6 types of equipments according to the reorganized classification system of equipments. The inspection items and inspection standards derived from this study have been proposed to the KCDC and will be applied to the revision of the Rule's [Appendix 1]. Therefore, we expect to be used as reference materials for domestic medical center, inspection institutions, and equipment manufacturing import companies.

A feeding trial was conducted to examine the effect of high-temperature-micro-time (HTMT) processing of diets containing extruded soybean (ESB) in high quantity on milk fat production, metabolic responses, and the formation of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) and trans-vaccenic acid (TVA). Twenty-one multiparous Holstein cows in mid-lactation were blocked according to milk yield in the previous lactation. Cows within each block were randomly assigned to either normal concentrate or HTMT treated diets containing ESB (7.5% HTMT-ESB and 15% HTMT-ESB). It was hypothesized that the HTMT-ESB would affect the undegradable fatty acids in the rumen and, thus, would modify the fatty acid profile of milk fat. Both 7.5% and 15% HTMT-ESB did not affect milk yield, fat, protein, lactose and solid-not-fat (SNF), but the proportion of cis-9, trans-11 CLA in milk fat was significantly increased by these treatments. Content of TVA in milk fat was not affected by HTMT-ESB. The HTMT-ESB influenced the fatty acid profile in milk fat, but there was little difference between 7.5% and 15% of supplementation. HTMT-ESB feeding significantly decreased the concentration of plasma insulin and glucose, while plasma growth hormone (GH), triglyceride (TG), non-esterified fatty acid (NEFA) and HDLcholesterol were increased by 7.5% and 15% ESB-HTMT supplementation in comparison to the control group (p<0.05). However, no significant difference was observed in plasma LDL-cholesterol, insulin like growth factor (IGF)-1, T3, T4, and leptin concentrations among treatments (p>0.05). The present results showed that cis-9, trans-11 CLA production was increased by HTMT treatment of dietary ESB without reduction of milk fat, and the unchanged milk fat and yield was assumed to be associated with the constant level of thyroid hormones, leptin, and IGF-1.

A feeding trial was carried out to determine the effects of chromium methionine (Cr-Met) chelate and forage level over two years, $1^{st}$ fattening and $2^{nd}$ fattening period on growth parameters, carcass characteristics and blood metabolites of 46 Korean native (Hanwoo, Bos Taurus, $BW=183{\pm}44kg$) steers. Treatments were: 1) Steers in the low forage (LF) group were fed diets that consisted of 60% concentrate and 40% forage; 2) Steers in the high forage (HF) group were fed diets that consisted of 40% concentrate and 60% forage. Following the $1^{st}$ fattening period, steers ($BW=480{\pm}37.6kg$) were randomly assigned to four treatment groups: LF (40 F plus no Cr-Met supplementation in the $2^{nd}$ fattening period), LFCM (40LF plus added 400 ppb of Cr-Met during the $2^{nd}$ fattening period), HF (60 F plus no added Cr-Met during the $2^{nd}$ fattening period) and HFCM (60 F plus added 400 ppb of Cr-Met in the $2^{nd}$ fattening period). Dry matter intake of the treatment diets did not differ during the raising and $1^{th}$ fattening period (P > 0.05). The ADG in the raising period showed no difference between the 40 F and 60 F groups (P > 0.05). Carcass characteristics including rib-eye area and meat yield index were higher in HF than the other treatment groups (P < 0.05). The HF group tended to show a higher (P = 0.08) marbling score than the LF group whereas the HFCM group showed a higher marbling score than the LFCM group (P < 0.05). HDL was higher and LDL lower in groups fed with Cr-Met than in other groups whereas glucose showed the lowest value in HF group (P < 0.05). Triglyceride (TG), Cholesterol, PUN and total protein (TP) were the same among all treatment groups (P > 0.05). The Insulin concentration in the blood was significantly higher for the HFCM group than for the LF, LFCM and HF groups (P < 0.05). It is concluded that supplementation of chromium-methionine chelate could improve meat quality in beef steers.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the proportion and associated risk factors of hypertriglyceridemia in rural Vietnamese women. Research data were collected as part of the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study (KoGES). A cross-sectional study of 957 Vietnamese women in their 20 to 30s was conducted in rural areas of Bavi, Vietnam. Subjects were classified as hypertriglyceridemic (serum TG ${\geq}$ 150 mg/dL). Demographic, socio-economic details, anthro-pometric measurements, and blood profiles were recorded. The proportion of hypertriglyceridemic subjects was 22.0%, and the mean age of hypertriglyceridemics subjects was older than that of normo-triglyceridemic subjects (p < 0.05). In hypertriglyceridemic subjects, height, HDL-cholesterol, and LDL-cholesterol were significantly lower, compared to subjects with normo-triglyceridemia, while weight, body mass index, waist hip ratio, body fat %, blood pressure, fasting blood sugar, total cholesterol, and atherogenic index were higher, compared to those with normo-triglyceridemia. Intake of cereal and cereal products, total plant food, and cereal/potato fiber in subjects with hypertriglyceridemia was significantly higher, compared to normo-triglyceridemic subjects. Hypertriglyceridemic subjects had a significantly lower intake of animal calcium and retinol than normo-triglyceridemic subjects. Significant positive relationships were observed between the prevalence of hypertriglyceridemia and consumption of total plant food [OR (95% CI) for the highest tertile, compared to the lowest: 1.764 (1.131-2.750); p for trend = 0.008] and crude fiber [OR (95% CI) for the highest tertile compared to the lowest: 1.651 (1.092-2.497); p for trend = 0.027]. In addition, a significant inverse relationship was observed between the prevalence of hypertriglyceridemia and cholesterol intake [OR (95% CI) for the highest tertile, compared to the lowest: 0.601 (0.400-0.901); p for trend = 0.012]. These findings may provide basic data for use by policymakers and dieticians in future development of nutrition and health programs to encourage healthier eating habits, and to prevent hypertriglyceridemia advancing cardiovascular disease in rural Vietnamese women.

본 연구는 2007~2012년 국민건강영양조사 자료를 이용하여 30세 이상 제2형 당뇨병 여성 환자의 과일류 및 생선류 등의 식품섭취량과 심혈관질환 위험인자와의 관련성을 분석하였다. T2DM군이 NFG군에 비해 과일류 및 생선류의 섭취량이 유의적으로 낮았고 이들의 섭취량이 증가할수록 고중성지방혈증의 위험성이 유의적으로 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 과일류와 생선류 섭취량은 각각 중앙값 이상으로 많이 섭취한 군 (FF3)이 각각 중앙값 이하로 섭취한 군 (FF1)에의 비해 TG 농도가 높을 위험이 유의적으로 낮았다. 이러한 결과는 과일류에 김치를 제외한 채소류, 버섯류, 해조류의 섭취량을 포함시켜 분석했을 때에도 같은 결과를 나타내었다. 따라서, 한국인 제2형 당뇨병여성 환자의 과일류 및 생선류의 섭취가 심혈관질환에 긍적적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 보이며, 과일류나 생선류 중 어느 한 종류만 많이 섭취하기보다는 두 종류를 모두 적절히 섭취하는 것이 심혈관 질환 위험성을 낮추는데 효과적일 것으로 사료된다.

본 연구에서는 국내 원주에서 생산되고 있는 RDF의 열분해 특성을 조사하기 위해 열중량 분석기(TGA)를 이용하여 비등온 실험(10, 20, $30^{\circ}C/min$)을 수행하여 분석하였다. 다양한 성분의 물질을 함유한 RDF는 승온 속도에 따라 차이가 있으나, 대체로 $350{\sim}700^{\circ}C$ 사이에서 열분해 및 연소되었으며, 최대 열분해 반응속도를 나타내는 온도는 석탄의 그것에 비해 매우 빠름을 알 수 있었다. Friedman 및 Flynn-Wall-Ozawa의 방법을 이용하여 평균한 활성화에너지 값은 각각 14.44, 18.40 kcal/mol이었으며, Friedman의 방법을 통해 반응 차수는 1.219, 빈도인자 $3.02{\times}10^5(s^{-1})$의 값을 얻었다. 또한 Coats Redfern의 방법을 통해 앞서 계산한 활성화에너지 값과의 유사성을 비교하여 고체상의 연소반응 메커니즘을 판단할 경우, 개별 입자들 사이에서 하나의 핵에서 핵화되는 반응인 1차 화학 반응($F_1$)이 가장 유사한 반응 메커니즘으로 판단되었다.

간 효소(ALT와 AST)는 주로 간기능을 검사하는데 활용되지만, 간 효소와 심혈관질환 사망과의 관련성에 대한 연구들이 보고되고 있다. 본 연구는 간 효소와 전체사망원인의 관련성을 확인하고자 하였다. 연구자료는 2005년 8월과 2006년 12월에 한국농촌코호트(5개 지역) 연구에 참여한 40세 이상의 성인 10,110명의 건강검진 및 설문조사 자료와 2012년 12월 통계청의 사망자료를 병합하여 사용하였다. 분석방법은 5개 범주로 구분한 간 효소에 의한 사망위험비는 Cox의 비례위험모델을 이용하여 다른 위험요인들을 보정하여 분석하였다. 연구결과 지금까지 사망의 중요 위험요인들의 사망위험비는 65세 이상이 3.5배, 남자가 3.8배, 흡연 3.2배, WHR이 높을수록, 운동 안함 1.6배, 지질성분 및 PP2가 높을수록 높았으며, 이런 변수들을 보정한 상태에서 AST가 50 IU/L 이상일 때 사망위험비가 2.198배(95% CI: 1.217-3.971)였고, ALT도 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 이런 결과는 높은 값의 AST는 사망 위험을 높이는데 영향을 미치며, ALT도 사망을 예측하는데 유용한 도구가 될 수 있다는 것을 제시한다.
