Purpose: Dietary fiber is a component of carbohydrate that is linked closely with the carbohydrate quality, but few studies have investigated the association of high fiber intake with the cardiometabolic risk factors in Koreans. This study examined the association of high fiber and high carbohydrate intake with the cardiometabolic risk factors among Korean adults. Methods: This study included 15,095 adults aged ≥20 years, who participated in the 2013 ~ 2017 KNHANES. The dietary intake was obtained using a 24-h dietary recall method. The associations of high fiber and high carbohydrate intake with metabolic syndrome and dyslipidemia were examined by sex using multiple logistic regression analysis. Results: The median of dietary fiber was 23.6 g/day in men and 20.0 g/day in women. Dietary fiber intake increased gradually as dietary carbohydrate groups increased except for ≥80% of energy from the carbohydrate group. Women in the highest quintile of fiber intake showed a 33% lower risk of metabolic syndrome compared with those in the third quintile. When stratified into low fiber (LF) and high fiber (HF) groups using Adequate Intake of fiber for Koreans, men in the third quartile of carbohydrate intake showed a 44% and 51% higher risk of metabolic syndrome and atherogenic dyslipidemia than in the first quartile, respectively, but only in the LF group. Women in the second quartile of carbohydrate intake showed an 83% higher risk of hypercholesterolemia than in the first quartile in the LF group. On the other hand, as no significant association was observed between the carbohydrate intake and metabolic diseases among the HF groups in both sexes. Conclusion: These findings suggest that a high fiber intake might be associated with a reduced risk of metabolic syndrome and high carbohydrate intake with a low dietary fiber intake might be associated with an increased risk of several metabolic abnormalities among Korean adults. Further prospective studies will be needed to confirm the effects of high fiber and high carbohydrate intake on the cardiometabolic risk factors among Koreans.

선천성(유전성) 대사이상은 유전적인 원인으로 인해 단백질, 탄수화물, 지방 등의 대사에 이상이 생겨 정상적인 영양소 대사가 이루어지지 않는 질병이다. 대부분의 대사이상은 심각한 임상적 문제를 초래하며 출생직후 발견되므로 빠른 진단과 치료가 필수적이다(Alluri and Mulvihill 2002). 대사이상 질환은 매우 드물게 발생하고 자세한 주의 관찰을 요하므로 환자마다 영양치료로서 개별적인 관리가 필요하다(Enns and Packman 2002). 대사이상 환자의 생존율이 증가하면서 임상적으로 성장기 이후의 문제와 임신, 출산까지 관리에 대한 필요성이 점차 증가하고 있다(Radomyska 2003).

Proper development of fertilized oocyte to blastocyst is a key step in mammalian development to implantation. During development of preimplantation embryos, the mammalian embryo needs supply the energy substrate for keep viability. Usually mammalian oocyte get substrate especially energy substrate from oviduct and uterus, because it does not store much substrate into cytoplasm during oogenesis. Carbohydrates are known as a main energy substrate for preimplantation stage embryos. Glucose, lactate and pyruvate are essential component in preimplantation embryo culture media and there are stage specific preferences to them. Glucose transporter and $H^+$-monocarboxylate cotransporter are a main mediator for carbohydrate transport and those expression levels are primarily under the control of intrinsic or extrinsic factors like insulin and glucose. Other organic substances, amino acids, lipids and nucleotides are used as energy substance and cellular regulation factor. Though since 1960s, successful development of fertilized embryo to blastocyst has been accomplished with chemically defined medium for example BWW and give rise to normal offspring in mammals, the role of metabolites and the regulation of intermediary metabolism are still poorly understood. Glucose may permit expression of metabolic enzymes and transporters in compacting morula, capable of generating the energy required for blastocyst formation. In addition, it has been suggested that the cytokines can modulate the metabolic rate of carbohydrate in embryos and regulate the preimplantation embryonic development through control the metabolic rate. Recently we showed that lactate can be used as a mediator for preimplantation embryonic development. Those observations indicate that metabolites of carbohydrate are required by the early embryo, not only as an energy source, but also as a key substrate for other regulatory and biosynthetic pathways. In addition metabolites of carbohydrate may involve in cellular activity during development of preimplantation embryos. It is suggested that through these regulation and with other regulation mechanisms, embryo and uterus can prepare the embryo implantation and further development, properly.

The objective of the study was to examine the associations of dietary carbohydrate and fat intake with the prevalence of metabolic syndrome in Korean women. A cross-sectional study was employed based on data from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination (2007-2016). A total of 22,850 women aged 19 to 69 years were studied after excluding responses from pregnant or lactating women and those with missing metabolic values. Dietary intake data were collected with a 24-hour recall method. Dietary carbohydrate and fat intakes were divided into quintiles. After controlling for confounding variables, a multivariable logistic regression and general linear model were used. The findings indicated that HDL cholesterol levels were lower (p for trend<0.01), while triglyceride levels (p for trend=0.04), waist circumference (p for trend<0.01), and systolic blood pressure (p for trend<0.01) were higher among participants in the highest quintile of carbohydrate intake compared to those in the lowest quintile. Participants in the highest quintile of fat intake had lower waist circumference (p for trend=0.02), triglyceride level (p for trend<0.01), and systolic blood pressure (p for trend<0.01), while higher HDL cholesterol level (p for trend<0.01) compared to those in the lowest fat intake quintile. Metabolic syndrome was more likely to be present in the highest quintile of carbohydrates intake than in the lowest quintile (5^th quintile vs. 1^st quintile, OR: 1.32; 95% CI: 1.11 to 1.57). However, metabolic syndrome was less likely to be present in the highest quintile of fat intake than in the lowest quintile (5^th quintile vs. 1^st quintile, OR: 0.73; 95% CI: 0.61 to 0.86). This study revealed that high dietary carbohydrate intake and low dietary fat intake were associated with metabolic syndrome in Korean women.

월동기간 동안 zoysiagrass[Zoysia matrella(L.) Merr]와 creeping bentgrass(Agrostis palustris Hunds)의 저온 스트레스에 대한 탄수화물 대사 반응을 구명하기 위해 11월부터 이듬해 4월까지의 식물체내의 탄수화물 대사산물의 변화를 비교 분석하였다. Creeping bentgrass의 녹색도와 뿌리 성장은 온도변화와 거의 평행하게 변화하였으나 zoysiagrass는 뿌리 성장에 거의 변화가 없이 3월 말까지 담황색을 나타냈다. 11월부터 이듬해 1월까지 zoysiagrass에서 glucose와 sucrose 함량은 크게 높았고, 1월에서 4월까지 starch를 제외한 모든 탄수화물 화합물들의 감소의 정도가 현저하게 낮았다. Reeping bentgrass에서 fructan의 depolymerization이 2월 이후 단당류와 이당류의 감소와 일치했으나 zoysiagrass에서는 starch 가수분해가 11월부터 일찍이 시작되었다. 이상의 결과들은 creeping bentgrass와 비교 했을때 zoysisagrass 뿌리의 높은 비구조적 탄수화물의 농도가 저온 내성과 밀접한 관계가 있음을 잘 나타내어 주고 있다.

A sensitive and easy high performance liquid chromatograph (HPLC) / electrospray ionization (ESI)-mass spectrometric (MS) method has been developed for the quantitative and qualitative analyses of acarbose and its metabolites. After plasma samples were simply filtered with a syringe filter, the filtered plasma was analyzed by LC/MS. The standard calibration curve for acarbose was linear ($r^2=0.9963$) over the concentration range $0.1{\sim}10{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ in plasma. The metabolite component-I and II, which were metabolized by the ${\alpha}$-amylase and ${\beta}$-amylase, were found also by in vitro incubation. The developed method can be utilized to study acarbose and the other carbohydrates.

The prevalence of obesity has been increasing worldwide. Several dietary treatments have been suggested to control weight, and recent guidelines recommend individualizing the composition of macronutrients. Carbohydrates are the most important nutrients in meals, and carbohydrate restriction is a dietary strategy that promotes weight loss. A low-carbohydrate diet is effective for short-term weight loss and can help improve glycated hemoglobin, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and triglyceride levels; however, the long-term effects and safety of this diet remains doubtful. In the short term, there is a risk of gastrointestinal symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and gastroesophageal reflux, and type 1 diabetes patients are at risk of severe hypoglycemia, while in the long term, it can lead to malnutrition and decreased exercise capacity. Thus, rather than limiting the intake of carbohydrates, it is important to limit the intake of refined grains, sugar, honey, syrup, and sweetened beverages while maintaining the planned carbohydrate intake rate and improving meal quality.
