복합호흡운동과 넙다리네갈래근의 신경근전기자극 치료가 중증 만성폐쇄성폐질환 환자들의 폐기능과 대뇌겉질 활성도에 미치는 효과를 알아보고자 하였다. 60~80세 중증 만성폐쇄성폐질환 환자 20명을 대상으로 실험군은 복합호흡운동과 넙다리네갈래근의 신경근전기자극을, 대조군은 복합호흡운동만을 실시하였다. 사전 검사로 폐기능과 대뇌겉질 활성도를 측정하였고, 중재는 6주 간, 주 4일, 1일 1회, 30분씩 각 집단에 시행한 후, 사후검사를 사전검사와 동일하게 재측정하였다. 그 결과 집단 내 폐기능 변화는 실험군과 대조군 모두 1초간 노력성 날숨량에서 유의한 차이가 있었고(p<.001)(p<.05), 집단 간 폐기능 변화 비교에서 1초간 노력성 날숨량의 변화는 유의한 차이가 있었다(p<.05). 집단 내 대뇌겉질의 영역 별 알파파 변화 비교에서는 Fp1, Fp2, F3, F4 영역에서 대조군과 실험군 모두 유의한 차이가 있었다(p<.01)(p<.05). 따라서 6주 동안의 복합호흡운동과 넙다리네갈래근의 신경근전기자극은 중증 만성폐쇄성폐질환들의 폐기능을 향상시키고, 대뇌겉질 활성도에서 앞이마부 영역의 알파파가 증가되어 긍정적인 호흡의 변화가 나타났음을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 중증의 만성폐쇄성폐질환 환자들에게 복합호흡운동 뿐만 아니라 부가적으로 넙다리네갈래근에 신경근전기자극을 병행하면 보다 좋은 치료적 효과를 볼 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

Purpose: This study intended to classify voluntary respiratory exercise and exercise using breathing training equipment to suggest proper respiratory exercise to relieve symptoms of patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Methods: Sixteen subjects were randomly selected for experimental group I, which performed feedback breathing exercise and 15 subjects were randomly selected for experimental group II, which performed a complex breathing exercise. The mediation program was performed 30 minutes a session, once a day, three times a week, for five weeks. This study analyzed before and after results within groups and between groups through measurement of respiratory muscle activity and health-related quality of life. Results: Activity of sternocleidomastoid muscle and scalene muscle increased meaningfully within experimental group I and activity of diaphragm increased significantly within experimental group II (p<0.05) and there was a meaningful difference in health-related quality of life within experimental group II (p<0.05). Significant differences in change of activity of respiratory muscle and health-related quality of life were observed between groups (p<0.05). Conclusion: This study showed conflicting results between activity of agonist and synergist in patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease according to types of respiratory exercise and that complex respiratory exercise is more effective in health-related quality of life. Therefore, it found that the more severity increase, the more self-respiratory technique is an effective program. Diversified approach methods will be needed to improve respiratory function and quality of life for patients, and continuous clinical studies will be needed in the future.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of high-intensity complex exercise program using whole-body vibration (WBV) and respiratory resistance on pain and dysfunction, psychosocial level, balance ability, and pulmonary function in low back pain (LBP) patients with high obesity. Design: A randomized controlled trial Methods: A total of 44 LBP patients withhigh obesity (body mass index, BMI≥30kg/m²) were randomly assigned to an experimental group (n=22) and a control group (n=22). Both groups underwent a lumbar stabilization exercise program. In addition, the experimental group implemented the high-intensity complex exercise program combined with WBV and respiratory resistance. In order to compare the effects depending on the intervention methods, numeric pain rating scale (NRPS), Roland-Morris disability questionnaire (RMDQ), fear-avoidance beliefs questionnaire (FABQ), balance ability, and pulmonary function were used for measurement. Results: Both groups showed significant differences in NRPS, RMDQ, FABQ, balance ability before and after intervention (p<0.05). In addition, the experimental groupshowed significant difference in the amount of change in RMDQ, balance ability and pulmonary function values than the control group (p<0.05). Conclusions: High-intensity complex exercise program using WBV and respiratory resistance has been proven to be an effective and clinically useful method to decrease dysfunction, increase balance ablilty, and pulmonary function for LBP patients with high obesity.

There are studies on breathing pattern disorder (BPD), but the causes of BPD are still complex, and various studies are ongoing. This study reviewed several studies to investigate the possibility that pathological changes in the scalene muscles may be one of the causes of dyspnea, and that treatment of them may improve respiratory disorders. Anatomically, the scalene muscles are located between the cervical vertebrae and the transverse process of the ribs and act as a respiratory muscle. If there is a problem or excessive in its role, it can cause chest breathing or oral breathing. These problems may further affect respiratory diseases such as hyperventilation syndrome, obstructive disease, restrictive disease, and respiratory disorders. According to the results of previous studies, it seems that manual therapy or exercise therapy for the scalene muscles can contribute to the treatment of BPD.

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the changes in pulmonary function, gait ability, and quality of life when NMES is applied along with CBE and to provide basic clinical data to be used in pulmonary rehabilitation guidelines for patients with COPD to treat patients with severe COPD. Methods: For this study, CBE and NMES of quadriceps femoris on both sides were applied to the experimental group (n=10), and only CBE was applied to the control group (n=10). For a pre-test, a 6-minute walk test was performed, and pulmonary function and health-related quality of life were measured. Moreover, an exercise program was applied to each group for 30 minutes per session, 5 times a week, for 6 weeks. After that, a post-test was conducted the same way as the pre-test. Results: In the within-group comparison, there were significant differences in forced expiratory volume in one second, 6-minute walk test and health-related quality of life between the experimental group and the control group (p<0.01)(p<0.05). In the between-group comparison, the experimental group showed an increase in forced expiratory volume in one second and 6-minute walk test (p<0.05) and showed a decline in health-related quality of life (p<0.05). Conclusion: The 6-weeks NMES program improved health-related quality in patients with severe COPD by increasing expiratory volume by reinforcing the function of quadriceps femoris. This finding implies that NMES could be an alternative mode for improving physical functions of patients with severe COPD, who cannot participate in a breathing exercise program or are reluctant to participate.

The fit of a respirator to the face of an individual can be determined by a qualitative fit test (QLFT) or a quantitative fit test (QNFT). The pass/fail decision from a QLFT or QNFT for the same respirator on the same individual may vary from one wearing to the next, because the human facial features are complex and the respirator may not fit to the face in the same way every time it is worn. This study reports how the fit factors (FF) resulting from a QNFT on an individual vary from day to day and depend on the movements in the six fit test exercises. The reported FFs provide an objective and numerical basis (FF) which does not depend on the subject's voluntary or involuntary response. Four half-mask (H1-H4) and four full-facepiece respirators (F1-F4) were fit tested on one wearer 10 times a day for 5 days with a PortaCount (model 8010, TSI). The FFs obtained for each set of 10 fit tests on a specific day and 50 fit tests on five days involving one of the six exercise regimes have been recorded as log-normal distributions. All of the geometric standard deviations (GSD) of the overall FFs varied widely among every wearing and day except for H1 and F3, and the variability of the half-mask respirators was larger than that of the full-facepiece respirators. Among the six exercise regimes, reading or talking (RT) had markedly the lowest exercise FFs on the tested individual. Generally, there were significant differences between the first normal breathing (NB1) FFs and the remaining exercise FFs.

불면증은 최근 5년 새 환자가 20% 이상 증가하고 있는 현대 사회의 만성적인 질병이다. 수면이 부족할 경우 나타나는 개인 및 사회적 문제가 심각하고 불면증의 유발 요인이 복합적으로 작용하고 있어서 진단 및 치료가 중요한 질환이다. 본 연구는 자유롭게 의견을 표출하는 소셜 미디어 'Reddit'의 불면증 커뮤니티인 'insomnia'를 대상으로 5,699개의 데이터를 수집하였고 이를 국제수면장애분류 ICSD-3 기준과 정신의학과 전문의의 자문을 받은 가이드라인을 바탕으로 불면증 경향 문헌과 비경향 문헌으로 태깅하여 불면증 말뭉치를 구축하였다. 구축된 불면증 말뭉치를 학습데이터로 하여 5개의 딥러닝 언어모델(BERT, RoBERTa, ALBERT, ELECTRA, XLNet)을 훈련시켰고 성능 평가 결과 RoBERTa가 정확도, 정밀도, 재현율, F1점수에서 가장 높은 성능을 보였다. 불면증 소셜 데이터를 심층적으로 분석하기 위해 기존에 많이 사용되었던 LDA의 약점을 보완하며 새롭게 등장한 BERTopic 방법을 사용하여 토픽 모델링을 진행하였다. 계층적 클러스터링 분석 결과 8개의 주제군('부정적 감정', '조언 및 도움과 감사', '불면증 관련 질병', '수면제', '운동 및 식습관', '신체적 특징', '활동적 특징', '환경적 특징')을 확인할 수 있었다. 이용자들은 불면증 커뮤니티에서 부정 감정을 표현하고 도움과 조언을 구하는 모습을 보였다. 또한, 불면증과 관련된 질병들을 언급하고 수면제 사용에 대한 담론을 나누며 운동 및 식습관에 관한 관심을 표현하고 있었다. 발견된 불면증 관련 특징으로는 호흡, 임신, 심장 등의 신체적 특징과 좀비, 수면 경련, 그로기상태 등의 활동적 특징, 햇빛, 담요, 온도, 낮잠 등의 환경적 특징이 확인되었다.
