It is necessary to control the room temperature for comfortable and deep sleep during a tropical night. We need to investigate thermal transport and parameter between human and environment for comfortable sleep. Therefore this study is performed to evaluate the comfortable room temperature based on the change of skin temperature under variations in thermal conditions and several reports. Five female subjects of 20~22 years with similar sleeping pattern were participated for the experiment. The subjects arrived in chamber at 9 pm and adapted to thermal circumstances during 2 hours. The sensors was sticked in body for skin temperatures. If subjects fall asleep in chamber, lights off and then sleep during 8 hours.As results, indoor temperature range for comfort sleep was $23.9{\sim}28.4^{\circ}C$ based on comfort mean skin temperature. But considering transition of time, minimum indoor temperature was $21.6^{\circ}C$, $22.9^{\circ}C$, $24.1^{\circ}C$, $23.9^{\circ}C$ and maximum indoor temperature was $28.2^{\circ}C$, $30.1^{\circ}C$.

The number of patients with many complications grows with the increase of aging population. As the elders and severely ill patients spend most of their time in bed, it leads to Pressure Injuries (PI) such as bedsores. Unfortunately, there is no method to automatically detect changes in patient's posture which leads to the need for a caregiver every set of times when the patient needs to be moved. Many studies are conducted to solve this inefficient problem. Yet, these studies require costly devices or use methods that disturb patient's sleeping environment. Those methods are mostly hard to implement in practice due to these reasons. We propose a method to detect posture using a three-axis acceleration sensor from the wrist band. We developed a wearable watch that measures sleep-related data. We analyzed 40 people's sleep data with a wearable module and watch to measure their postures such as supine, left-side, and right-side. Then, we compared the classified posture from the watch with the wearable module and achieved 90% accuracy. Therefore, we concluded that only by using the wearable watch, we can detect the sleeping position without any new equipment or system to diagnose the patients without discomfort during their daily lives.

The purpose of this study was to find out how sleep characteristics by Sasang constitution (SC) appear in Vietnamese immigrant women in Korea, and how sleep aberration by SC affected the quality of life. The number of 217 Vietnamese immigrant women joined this study. We surveyed SC with Korea Sasang Constitutional Diagnostic Questionnaire (KS-15) and sleep characteristics with Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI) questionnaire. We evaluated quality of life(QoL) with Euro Quality of Life-5Dimension(EQ 5D) questionnaire. A Chi-square test and a one-way ANOVA test were conducted according to SC, and T test also used to compare PSQI groups. Significant p was .05. The number(rate) of Taeeumin(TE), Soeumin(SE), and Soyangin(SY) were 40(18.4%), 55(25.3%), and 122(56.2%) respectively. The distribution of obstructive factors of sleep were significantly different according to SC(Too Cold in Sleeping, x =13.378, p=.037, Too Hot in Sleeping x²=12.834, p=.046). The distribution of daytime drowsiness(x²=15.379, p=.018) and falling concentration power (x²=17.533, p=.008) was significantly different according to SC. The sleep status of the subjects showed a significant negative correlation with the EQ 5D Visual Analogue Scale(VAS) (r =-.399, p<.001), and the EQ 5D Index (r=-.211, p=.002). In the EQ VAS, TE showed a difference between the good and bad sleeping groups (t=3.955, p<.001). SE showed a difference between the two groups in the EQ 5D Index (t=2.332, p=.037). SY did not show a difference between the two groups. This study reveals that sleeping is closely related with QoL and distribution of obstructive factors of sleep may be different according to SC. Further study to confirm the constitutional difference in race at Vietnam is needed.

콜라겐 펩타이드(collagen peptide)는 단백질의 가수 분해물로서 주름 완화, 보습력 증대, 탄력 개선 등의 특정 피부 효능을 나타낼 수 있어 화장품 혹은 피부 개선 기능식품으로서 활용되고 있다. ${\gamma}-aminobutyric$ acid (GABA)는 척추 동물의 뇌, 척수에 존재하는 신경전달 물질로서 수면의 질과 양을 개선해 준다고 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 콜라겐 펩타이드와 GABA의 복합물이 수면 장애가 있는 여성에게 8주 경구 섭취를 통해서 수면 및 피부 상태를 개선할 수 있는가에 관하여 확인하였다. 복합물(J85091900)은 8주간 연속적으로 섭취 시, 수면장애지수(PSQI)가 유의적으로 감소하였으며, 수면 시간을 7% 증가시켰다. 또한, 피부 거칠기, 눈가 주름 및 피부 수분량(capacitance)을 유의적으로 개선하였다. 이상의 결과에서 콜라겐과 GABA의 복합물은 복합 수면 장애에 따른 피부의 노화 현상으로부터 피부를 보호할 수 있음을 확인하여 먹는 화장품의 핵심 소재로 활용 가능함을 확인하였다.

Polysaccharides obtained from Sappan Lignum, Mori Radicis Cortex and Olibanum were examined for their liver protective effects against carbon tetrachloride-and D-galactosamine intoxication in ICR-mice. Hexobarbital sleeping time and serum transaminases (S-GOT and S-GPT) were measured as parameters for the evaluation of liver protective effects. All polysaccharides tested in this experiment showed remarkable positive effects on the prevention of hepatic intoxication with carbon tetrachloride-and D-galactosamine. Much better liver protective effects of polysaccharides were observed in D-galactosamine-liver injuries than in carbon tetrachloride-injuries.

Thirteen compounds were synthesized by condensing the N-heterocyclic amines (piperidine, pyrrolidine, morpholine) and secondary aliphatic amines (dimethylamine, diethylamine) with 3,4-methylenedioxyphenylalkenoic acid chlorides for developing CNS depressants. Among them, N, N-diethyl-3,4-methylenedioxycinnamamide (IX) and N, N-dimethyl-5-(3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl)-2, 4-pentadienoic acid amicle (XII) exhibited strong activity in antagonism against pentylenetetrazole-induced convulsion, strychnine-induced convulsion and maximal electroshock seizure. N, N-Dimethyl-3, 4-methylenedioxycinnamide (VIII) showed more potent activity in antagonism against strychnine-induced convulsion and maximal electroshock seizure and in the prolongation of hexobarbital sleeping time.

Alcohol extracts of plants widely used in the traditional medicine have been tested to establish if they affect the metabolism of drug in mice. Forteen of the plants tested exhibited prolonging and/or inhibitory effect on hexobarbital sleeping time. Some of them also showed increasing effect on strychnine mortality, whereas piperis retrofracti Fructus reduced the toxicity of strychnine.

In order to search a more active and safer compound, piperine derivatives with substituents in piperidine residue were synthesized and evaluated on CNS depressant activity. N-Piperoyl-2-methylpiperidine (I) and N-piperoyl-3-methylpiperidine (II) were potent in strychnine-induced convulsion. Compound I and N-piperoyl-3-hydroxypiperidine (IX) exhibited a potent inhibitory effect againt pentetrazoleinduced convulsion and a significant prolongation effect of hexobarbital-induced sleeping time. The hydroxy derivatives were more toxic than the methyl derivatives.

The purpose of this study is to analyze patterns of space use and housing preferences to be used in the housing plan for students. Data was collected through questionnaire surveys from local university students living apart from their family. We collected 272 samples and analyzed them using SPSSwin program. The results are as follows; 1) The average hours of staying at the housing for student are 5 hours and 30 minutes(except sleeping time). Most of the time was used for ‘hobby’ and ‘study\ulcorner computer works’. The most of the students had ‘a meal per day’ at their housing. 2) The most preferred housing type by the students is ‘studio apartment’ and the next preferred is ‘apartment’. The highly demanded facility is ‘laundry’ and the next comes ‘kitchen’. 3) Those who spend more time in their housing than average show higher demand in ‘kitchen’ and ‘balcony’. Those who spend less time in their housing show higher demand in ‘storage’.

고속도로의 경우 해당구간에 버스전용차로, 휴게소, 졸음쉼터 등이 존재할 경우 다수의 통행시간 그룹이 존재할 수 있다. 기존 대부분의 구간통행시간 추정연구에서는 낮은 표본 수집 상태에서 하나의 대표 통행시간(정규분포 가정) 그룹을 가정하고, 특정범위를 벗어난 경우 이상치로 판단하여 제거한 후 구간 통행시간을 추정하였다. 하지만, 고속도로와 같이 해당구간에 버스전용차로, 휴게소, 졸음쉼터 등이 존재할 경우 통행시간 분포는 정규분포가 아닌 쌍봉 또는 다봉 형태를 보일 것이다. 따라서 기존의 추정방법론을 적용할 경우 왜곡된 결과를 초래할 가능성이 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 첫째, 샘플수가 부족한 상태에서도 신뢰할 수 있으며, 둘째, 다수의 통행시간 그룹 중 일반차로를 이용하면서 휴게소를 이용하지 않은 대표 통행시간 그룹을 선정하고, 선정된 통행시간 그룹의 개별 통행시간 자료를 이용하여 대표 통행시간을 추정할 수 있는 방법론을 제안하였다.
