  • Purpose: This study was performed to identify the relations between glaucoma and dietary patterns in Korean adults, aged 30 years or older. Methods: 6,453 subjects (male 2,759, female 3,694 subjects) who aged 30 years or older from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey were included. Glaucoma was assessed based on the subjects were diagnosed by a doctor. At first, waist circumference and body mass index (BMI) were compared to investigate the association between glaucoma and obesity index. Secondly, dietary patterns using factor analysis for external blue colored fish(mackerel), seaweed(seaweed, laver), bean(bean, soybean milk), vegetables(sprout, spin, carrot, cabbage, cucumber, pepper, tomato, pumpkin) and fruits(tangerine, apple, pear, strawberry, grape, peach) were obtained. Lastly, regression analysis was used for glaucoma and emerged dietary factors. Results: In glaucoma and normal group, waist circumference and BMI were $82.25{\pm}9.96cm$ and $23.27{\pm}2.84kg/m^2$, $75.79{\pm}13.79cm$ and $22.39{\pm}4.06kg/m^2$, respectively. There was statistically significant difference (p<0.05). Three dietary patterns were emerged from the factor analysis, and factor 1 was included sprout, spin, carrot, cabbage, seaweed, cucumber, mackerel, laver. The factor 1 of dietary pattern was inversely related to the prevalence of glaucoma (OR: 0.697, 95%CI: 0.496-0.980, p=0.038), and model adjusting for age and sex was showed the same trend (OR: 0.698, 95%CI: 0.497-0.982, p=0.039). Conclusions: This study was analysed first with glaucoma and dietary pattern in Korean, and vegetables, laver and mackerel significant associated to reduce the risk of glaucoma.

  • In an effort to uncover the reproduction of Korean brook perch Coreoperca herzi testis anatomy and sperm morphology were studied. Fish samples were collected in the Sooypcheon river from May to October 2001. White-colored testes have wedgeshaped external morphology, and developed symmetrically in the dorsal cavity of the trunk. Isogenetic germ cells developed in the cyst located in seminiferous lobule. Each lobule showed significant asynchrony in the spermatogenic stage of the cyst. Sperm was 43 ${\mu}$m in length. The round head was 2.2 ${\mu}$m long. The middle piece developed beneath the head was 0.5 ${\mu}$m long. Tail was 40 ${\mu}$m in length. Coomassie brilliant blue (CBB) gave rise the intense staining in the apex of sperm head and middle piece, suggesting the possible development of acrosome.
