현대인들에게는 다양한 증상과 징후를 나타내는 스트레스성 질환이 증가되고 있는 추세에 있다. 이러한 스트레스 시에 구강 내에는 구강건조이나 구강작열감증후군, 구강점막질환, 구취 등이 호발 된다는 것은 이미 널리 알려진 사실이다. 이때 대부분의 환자에서 공통적으로 나타나는 현상은 타액선의 기능적 및 구조적 변화에 따른 타액성분의 변화이다. 이에 저자는 스트레스가 구강 내 타액선에 어떠한 영향을 미치며, 타액선으로부터 분비되는 ${\alpha}$-amylase에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 알아보고자 본 실험을 시행한 결과 다음과 같은 유의성 있는 결과를 얻었다. 1. 구속 스트레스에 의하여 타액선 조직은 선포세포가 공포화되며 변성되었고, 선포간극이 이개되었으며, 도관주위조직도 변성되었다. 2. 구속 3시간 후에는 선포세포가 위축되기 시작하였고, 구속 6시간 후에는 선포 간 이개현상이 관찰되었으며, 구속 72시간 후에는 도관 주위 조직도 변성되기 시작하였고, 점차 심화되어 구속 168시간 후에는 선포와 도관 주위조직이 모두 심하게 변성되었다. 3. 면역조직화학적 검사에서 구속 3시간 후에는 amylase의 발현이 부분적으로 불규칙하게 관찰되었으며, 구속 6시간 후에는 다소 감소되었고, 구속 12시간 후에는 amylase가 부분적으로 응집되었으며, 점차 감소되고 응집되어, 구속 48시간 후에는 전 타액선에 amylase의 응집현상이 심화되었고, 구속 168시간 후에는 amylase의 발현이 매우 감소되었다. 이상의 결과를 바탕으로 정서적인 스트레스를 받으면 타액선이 변성될 수 있으며, 타액선으로부터 분비되는 중요한 소화 효소인 amylase가 변화되어 소화 장애를 일으키거나 구강건강과 관계없이 구취발생에도 영향을 미칠 수 있다고 예측할 수 있어, 향후 amylase의 분비변화에 따른 지속적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

Objective : Licorice has been used for treating digestive disorder and also recommended as a detoxification agent. Liquiritigenin, a component of licorice, has been reported to have various biological activities. In this study, we aimed to establish the analytical method for liquiritigenin content in licorice and the processing method for the enhancement of liquiritigenin content in licorice. Methods : Processing was accomplished by roasting licorice at $250^{\circ}C$ for indicated time periods (5-20 min). Analysis of liquiritigrnin from roasted licorice was conducted using UPLC(Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography). Results : We established UPLC method for the analysis of liquiritigenin using water : acetonitrile gradient as mobile phase. Furthermore, we standardized the processing condition of licorice to enhance liquiritigenin content using UPLC method. Processing of licorice was accomplished by roasting at $250^{\circ}C$ for indicated time periods (5-20 min) and by pretreating with 50% of acetic acid or 30% ethanol for 24 h. By roasting licorice, the liquiritigenin contents in the licorice were increased. The best roasting time of licorice was 6 min, while roasting for the time above 8 min resulted in diminishing liquiritigenin contents. Moreover, pretreatment with 50% of acetic acid or 30% ethanol picked up liquiritigenin contents in roasted licorice. Conclusion : The adequate processing condition of licorice for the enhancement of liquiritigenin contents was obtained by pretreating licorice with 50% of acetic acid or 30% ethanol for 24 h and then by roasting at $250^{\circ}C$ for 6 min.

Objectives : Schizophrenia and other psychiatric disorder are associated with an increased risk of premature death. For decades, there have been reports of shorter life expectancy among those with severe mental illness. The purpose of this study was to compare the risk of mortality among institutionalized population, treated for severe mental illness to control group who did not have severe mental illness. Methods : The medical records and the death certificates of 2,029 institutionalized population who had died from 1985 to 2003 in Kkottongnae were investigated. Results : The mean age of the death of severe mental illness(SMI) group(51.4${\pm}$15.3 years old) was lower than that of non-severe mental illness(non-SMI) group(65.0${\pm}$19.3 years old) and it was statistically significant(p<0.0001). The most causes of death among the SMI group were respiratory diseases(23.3%), infectious disease (13.0%) and digestive disease(12.3%). Also, we found that the death due to injuries of the SMI group(8.9%) were three times higher than that of non-SMI group(2.5%). The most causes of death among the non-SMI group were respiratory disease(26.3%), circulatory disease(26.2%) and neoplasm(10.8%). Conclusion : The SMI group demonstrated higher mortality rates compared with the rate in the non-SMI group. The finding suggests that careful intervention is needed not only for menal health but also physical health in long-term facilities.
