The purpose of this study is to investigate isokinetic strength changes of knee joint in accordance with short-term weight loss of wrestlers. For this purpose, 14 male wrestlers of a K technical high school in B city participated in our research. The wrestlers were divided into two groups; one group of the wrestlers didn't lose any weight, and the other lost over 5% of their weights. The isokinetic strength was also observed before and after weight loss. The isokinetic strenght test were processed at test speed of the$60^{\circ}C$/sec, $90^{\circ}C$/sec, and $250^{\circ}C$/sec with the CYBEX NORM system(Cybex 770＋TMS, USA). Peak torque, peak torque %BW, total work, total work %BW, and endurance ratio were measured. Results showed that the isokinetic strength after the short-term weight loss of wrestlers decreased meaningfully Although endurance ratio didn't show any meaningful difference in our research, but more accurate research may find out the relationship between short-term weight loss and the endurance ratio of isokinetic strength.

The purpose of this study is to correct the error of lower weight input method as an alternative to reduce the specific absorption rate(SAR) in MRI. In order to prove that the SAR values not change according to the weight entered into the patient information, the 50kg phantom is placed in the coil and the input weight is changed from 10 to 100 in 10kg units to compare the SAR values. As a result, T1-weighted images had a SAR rate of 0.2W/kg and T2-weighted images had an average of 0.4W/kg. In conclusions, the SAR does not change according to the weight input by the technician before the scan, a lower weight when inputting patient information cannot be an alternative to reduce the SAR.

비만과 질병의 관계가 밝혀짐에 따라, 비만은 세계보건기구에서 정한 치료를 요하는 질병 중의 하나로 구분되고 있다. 비만의 치료는 과체중이 바람직한 체중으로 감소되고, 감소된 체중이 적어도 5년 동안 유지되는 것으로 정의하여, 이를 기준으로 보았을 때 비만에 대한 치료율은 암의 치유율 보다 낮아서, 비만의 완치가 얼마나 어려운지를 잘 말해주고 있다.(중략)

The purpose of this study was to identify the concepts of body image, weight control and food behavior in 520 Korean high school seniors from Seoul and Gyeonggi Province. A questionnaire survey was conducted to investigate body image, concern of weight control, experience of weight control, the first time to try weight control, plan for weight control, reasons of weight control and food behaviors related with weight control. Anthropometric parameters such as weight and height were measured. Finally, data from 497 high school seniors were used for statistical analysis. The results were as follows. Many subjects had misperceptions. Among the subjects who perceived themselves as 'fat', 57.8% were normal weight and 0.5% underweight. Among the subjects who perceived themselves as 'thin', 59.5% were normal weight, 0.9% overweight and 0.9% obese. Girls were more concerned about weight control than boys (4.20 vs. 3.66). Weight loss had been experienced by 61.5% of the subjects and weight gain by 12.8%. First weight control was attempted by 71.3% of the subject at high school and by 28.7% at middle school. The majority of subjects planned for weight control before their freshman year. The boys choose 'health' as the primary reason for weight control, whereas the girls chose 'good appearance'. The total score of food behaviors varied significantly according to BMI. Overweight and obese subjects had more desirable food behaviors than normal weight and underweight subjects (24.00, 24.06 vs. 21.92, 21.52). However, total scores of food behaviors showed no variation according to sex, weight control attempt and body image. In conclusion, the high school seniors had misconceptions about body image and weight control. They were exposed to a high risk of inappropriate weight control and food behaviors. Therefore, proper nutritional education programs need to be developed for high school seniors to prevent nutrition problems related to weight control and to maintain desirable food behaviors.

The experiments were performed to determine whether lidocaine interferes with the utilization of lipid as source of energy fuel for the contractile process by the isolated rat atria. Rats were starved for two days in order to inerease the lipid content of the heart. Atria from starved rats were better able to maintain their contractility in the absence of exgenous substrate, and also were more resistant to depression by lidocaine than atria from fed rats. Starvation results in a marked loss of body weight in rats. In contrast to the starved rats, the body weight of fed rats inereased with time. The smaller reduction in contractile activity of atria from the starved rats may suggest that endogenous lipid accumulates during starvation period and is used as an energy source for the contractile process in the face of a lidocaine-induced blockade in glycolysis.

In this study rats in fasting or fed protein free restricted diet including only fat showed much lowered level of serum cholesterol and triglyceride accompanied by utmost weight loss and high level of blood urea nitrogen indicated the tissue degradation, especially in liver with signs of damage or necrosis of hepatic parenchymal cell leading to elevated glutamic pyruvate transaminase value and to death. Rats fed only perilla oil in starvation or as fat source in normal diet dropped down the level of serum cholesterol and triglyceride compared to beef tallow fed rat. But with evidence of glutamic pyruvate transaminase values which was significantly elevated long term ingestion of perilla oil is likely to cause the lesion or any damage of hepatic function.

최근 우리나라의 당뇨병이 비만을 동반하는 '선진국형' 당뇨병으로 바뀌어 가고 있다. 비만은 당뇨병을 일으키는 주요 요인일 뿐 아니라 합병증을 유발할 수 있어 한국인의 비만 탈출이 더욱 강조된다. 또한 약간의 체중 감소가 비만한 당뇨인의 질병 진행을 막을 수 있다는 반가운 보고가 있어 당뇨병환자가 체중을 줄이는 것이 어떤 의미가 있는지 알아봤다.

The effects of protein-bound polysaccharides (A-PBP and L-PBP) that were extracted from the mycelia of two edible mushrooms, namely Agaricus blazai and Lentinus edodes, on serum cholesterol and body weight were investigated in mice and female volunteers. Six groups of Male Balb/c mice were fed six kinds of diet supplement- solutions composed of L-PBP, A-PBP, chitosan, and other fiber constituents, for 30 days under the normal diet. Ninety female volunteers were also supplemented for 8 weeks with six kinds of capsules including control and five test groups as the same manners (two times a day, 4 capsules). From 12 days after feeding of L-PBP (Group I) and A-PBP (Group II), the weight of mice began to reduce as compared with control, whereas that of Group III fed chitosan was decreased 15 days after feeding. Group W and Group V which were fed mixture of L-PBP, A-PBP, chitosan, and other dietary fiber, were more significant in lowering weight. After 4 weeks of the supplementation in women, their serum LDL-cholesterol level and body weights in Group I and II were reduced, but Croup 111 taken with chitosan capsule showed weaker effect than Group I and II. After 8 weeks, LDL-cholesterol content in the sera of Group I (132.5 mg/dL) and II(131.5 mg/dL) was decreased to ideal level (125.4 and 122.8 mg/dL) for healthy blood vessel. In the case of Group W supplemented with mixture of L-PBP, A-PBP, and chitosan, the weight-reduction effect (11.8%) and hypocholesterolemic effect (11.0%) was most significant, indicating their synergistic action. These data suggested that the weight-controlling and hypolipidemic effect of L-PBP and A-PBP was involved, at least in part, in absorption of cholesterol as their role of dietary fiber, as well as cholesterol metabolism.
