교래자연휴양림을 탐방한 대상자들이 삼림욕을 한 후에 자율신경의 활성도에 미치는 영향을 평가하는 것이 목적이었다. 방법: 삼림욕 전후에 유비맥파기를 이용하여 맥파를 측정하였다. 결과: 삼림욕 후에 교감신경 활성(LF)의 변화에서는 대조군의 사전과 사후의 평균치 차이는 유의성이 없었으나, 실험군에서는 사전보다 사후에는 증가하여 유의성이 있었으며(p<.038), 분산분석에서는 그룹간(p<.014), 전후 차( p<.026) 및 그룹과 전후 차에서도 유의하였다(p<.018). 부교감신경 활성도(HF)의 변화에서는 대조군과 실험군 간에 모두 유의성이 없었다. LF/HF 비율에서는 실험군에서는 사전보다 사후에 증가하여 유의성이 있었고(p<.019), 그리고 분산분석에서는 그룹간, 사전 및 사후 차간에서도 유의성이 있었다(p<.04). 평균맥박의 변화에서는 대조군은 사전보다 사후에 유의성이 없이 감소하였으나, 실험군에서는 사전보다 사후에 증가하여 유의성이 있었다(p<.026). 맥박표준편차(SDNN)의 변화에서는 대조군 및 실험군의 사전보다 사후의 평균치는 감소하였으나 유의성이 없었으나, 분산분석에서는 그룹간에서는 유의성이 있었다(p <.014). 심박변이평균편차(RMSSD)의 변화에서는 대조군 및 실험군의 사전과 사후의 평균치 차이는 유의성이 없었다. 결론: 교래곶자왈 숲 삼림욕 후에는 자율신경의 활성이 변화되고 평균맥박도 높아져서 자연치유의 장소로 유용하다고 판단한다.

The estimation of nugget sizes was attempted by utilizing the artificial neural networks method. Artificial neural networks is a highly simplified model of the biological nervous system. Artificial neural networks is composed of a large number of elemental processors connected like biological neurons. Although the elemental processors have only simple computation functions, because they are connected massively, they can describe any complex functional relationship between an input-output pair in an autonomous manner. The electrode head movement signal, which is a good indicator of corresponding nugget size was determined by measuring the each test specimen. The sampled electrode movement data and the corresponding nugget sizes were fed into the artificial neural networks as input-output pairs to train the networks. In the training phase for the networks, the artificial neural networks constructs a fuctional relationship between the input-output pairs autonomusly by adjusting the set of weights. In the production(estimation) phase when new inputs are sampled and presented, the artificial neural networks produces appropriate outputs(the estimates of the nugget size) based upon the transfer characteristics learned during the training mode. Experimental verification of the proposed estimation method using artificial neural networks was done by actual destructive testing of welds. The predicted result by the artifficial neural networks were found to be in a good agreement with the actual nugget size. The results are quite promising in that the real-time estimation of the invisible nugget size can be achieved by analyzing the process variable without any conventional destructive testing of welds.

Objectives: The study evaluated middle-aged women using the Core Seven Emotions Inventory-short form (CSEI-s) followed by a correlation analysis with Menopause Rating Scale (MRS). Methods: In this study, the medical records of 47 women who visited W University Oriental Medicine Hospital and completed the CSEI-s and MRS were evaluated. A total of 47 women were analyzed using SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Science, IBM, United States of America, Version 23.0). Frequency analysis, descriptive analysis, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Scheffe test, and correlation analysis were conducted. Results: 1. Approximately one-third of all subjects were more than cautious expressing joy and fright. 2. According to their educational status, high-school graduates thought they were superior to those with a bachelor's degree or above. 3. Anger was expressed with caution in the group with severe menopausal symptoms. 4. Anger, thought, depression, sorrow, fear, and fright showed a positive correlation with MRS scores. 5. Among premenopausal and postmenopausal women, fright was associated with menopausal symptoms and response by the autonomous nervous system. Conclusions: The results suggest that CSEI-s can be used to measure the psychological symptoms of middle-aged women.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to analyze and compare heart rate variability(HRV) of patient of twenties and thirties diagnosed as Kiwooljeung with healthy controls'. Methods : We measured HRV of 35 patient(20 to 39 years old, male 14, female 11) diagnosed as Kiwooljeung and 40 healthy controls(male 24, female 16). HRV was measured by SA-3000P(Medicore, Korea) for 5 minutes after 5 minutes resting. Results : 1. In time domain analysis, Mean pulse rate(PRT) in Kiwooljeung group was higher than healthy controls. Standard deviation of all normal N-N intervals (SDNN) in Kiwooljeung group was lower and the results of twenties and thirties were same. 2. In frequency domain analysis, total power(TP), very low frequency(VLF), low frequency(LF), high frequency(HF), Ln TP, Ln VLF, Ln LF, Ln HF in Kiwooljeung group were lower than healthy controls but LF/HF ratio was higher than healthy controls. 3. Comparing gender in Kiwooljeung group, LF/HF ratio in male was higher than female. Conclusions : This study suggests lower activity and imbalance of cardiac autonomous nervous system in Kiwooljeung with the age group between twenties and thirties.

Background and objective: The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of a forest healing program in terms of depression, neuropsychological and physiological benefits for the elderly. Methods: For this purpose, we developed a forest therapy program for the elderly who are vulnerable to dementia and conducted a total of 11 sessions of forest therapy activities in a forest once a week. We measured the changes in depression, resting-state Electroencephalography(EEG) and heart rate variability (HRV) before and after the program. There were 60 subjects aged over 65 yesrs old. 30 subjects participated in the forest therapy program, and the other were in the control group. The Geriatric Depression Scale was used to measure the level of depression, neuroNicle FX2 (Laxtha, Korea) was used to measure the resting-state EEG, and photoplethymogram (ubpulse T1, Laxtha, Korea) was used to measure the HRV. Results: The results showed that the depression index of the experimental group improved with statistical significance after the program (experiment group = 3.267 decrease of the mean). In the EEG measurement, the alpha-peak frequency at rest (experimental group = 0.227 Hz increase of the mean) was improved (mean increase = 0.23 in the experimental group, p < .05). The high frequency of HRV, which represents the parasympathetic nerve activity of the body's autonomous response, was also significantly improved (mean increase = 0.396 in the experimental group, p < .05). Conclusion: The results suggest that the forest therapy program can reduce the cognitive, psychological and physical risk factors of dementia for the elderly at risk of cognitive decline. Therefore, forest therapy activities may be suitable for the prevention of dementia in the elderly.

목적: 본 연구는 원적외선을 방사하는 황토 침구를 15명의 불면증 대상자에게 사용하게 한 후에 인체의 자율신경에 어떠한 변화를 일으키는지를 연구하는 것이 목적이었다. 방법: 황토침구를 사용한 대상자들의 변화는 심장박동변이(HRV)로 측정하였다. 결과: 임상군이 황토침구를 사용하기 전의 HF고주파수 평균은 220.8 msec²이었고, 사용한 후의 평균치는 5.1 msec²로 저하되었다. LF저주파수는 사용 전의 평균은 418.1 msec²이었고, 사용한 후의 평균치는 5.2 msec²로 저하되었다. VLF주파수의 사용전의 평균은 1463.3 msec²이었고, 사용한 후의 평균 측정치는 6.8 msec²로 저하되었다. TP주파수는 사용하기 전의 평균값은 977.3 msec²이었고, 사용 후의 평균값은 6.7 msec²로 저하되었다. 이상의 4항목의 사용 후의 측정치의 저하는 통계적으로 모두 유의성이 있었으며, 사용전의 대상자들의 높은 측정치는 대상자들이 모두 장기간 수면장애가 매우 높아서 스트레스와 불안 등이 높은 이유이었다고 유추하였다. 황토침구 사용전의 임상자들의 맥박은 69.3 bpm, 사용 후의 맥박은 70.6 bpm로 유의한차이가 없었다. SDNN 및 RMSSD도 사용전후에 차이가 유의하지 않았다. 결론: 자율신경 HF, LF, VLF, TP주파수는 황토가 발생하는 원적외선의 조사에 영향을 받는다고 평가한다. 본 연구데이터는 이 분야의 기초자료로서 가치가 높다고 평가한다.
