This study tested the hypothesis that effects of the menstrual cycle on resting blood pressure carry over to dynamic exercise. Eleven healthy females were studied during the early (EP; low estrogen, low progesterone) and late follicular (LP; high estrogen, low progesterone) menstrual phases. Stroke volume (SV), heart rate (HR), cardiac output (CO), systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and total vascular conductance (TVC) were assessed at rest and in response to mild and moderate cycling exercise during EP and LP. During EP, compared to LP, baseline SBP ($111{\pm}1$ vs. $103{\pm}2$ mmHg), DBP ($71{\pm}2$ vs. $65{\pm}2$ mmHg) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) ($84{\pm}2$ vs. $78{\pm}1$ mmHg) were higher and TVC ($47.0{\pm}1.5$ vs. $54.9{\pm}4.2$ ml/min/mmHg) was lower (p<0.05). During exercise, absolute values of SBP (Mild: $142{\pm}4$ vs. $127{\pm}5$ mmHg; Moderate: $157{\pm}4$ vs. $144{\pm}5$ mmHg) and MAP (Mild: $100{\pm}3$ vs. $91{\pm}3$ mmHg; Moderate: $110{\pm}3$ vs. $101{\pm}3$ mmHg) were also higher, while TVC was lower (Mild: $90.9{\pm}5.1$ vs. $105.4{\pm}5.2$ ml/min/mmHg; Moderate: $105.4{\pm}5.3$ vs. $123.9{\pm}8.1$ ml/min/mmHg) during EP (p<0.05). However, exercise-induced increases in SBP, MAP and TVC at both work intensities were similar between the two menstrual phases, even though norepinephrine concentrations were higher during LP. Results indicate that blood pressure during dynamic exercise fluctuates during the menstrual cycle. It is higher during EP than LP and appears to be due to additive effects of simultaneous increases in baseline blood pressure and reductions in baseline TVC.

Purpose : The purpose of this study is to verify the effectiveness of combined marine healing programs by analyzing the physical composition of metabolic patients, blood lipids and the effects of the inflammatory factors, the C -reactive protein(CRP). Methods : the combined marine treatment program was conducted for 6 hours a day, 5 days a week on the 10 adult patients with metabolic diseases and the results of their body composition, blood lipids and CRP were analyzed before and after the subjects completed the program. For the statistical analysis, the mean and standard deviation (M±SD) of each variable were calculated using SPSS version 20 and a paired t-test was conducted in order to test for the differences before and after the combined marine treatment program. All significant levels were set to 𝛼=.05. As a result of the experiment Results : First, regarding the changes in body composition and blood pressure after the 5-day combined marine treatment program was completed, there were statistically significant differences found in weight (p<.01) and systolic blood pressure (p<.05). Second, regarding the changes in blood lipids and CRP after the program was conducted, there were statistically significant differences found in total cholesterol (p<.05) while there was no statistically significant difference found in the variables of neutral fat, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and CRP. Conclusion : the study results were integrated, the 5-day combined marine treatment program had a positive effect on weight, blood pressure and total cholesterol in the patients with metabolic diseases. Therefore, the short-term marine treatment program was thought to be effective for them. However, considering no significant differences were found in neutral fat, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and CRP, further development and research on combined marine treatment programs should be conducted in the long term to create an effective program for patients with metabolic diseases.

This study compares salt-related dietary patterns according to sodium intake. A survey was conducted with 257 college students(130 male and 127 female students) in the Busan area. Dish Frequency Questionnaire 70(DFQ 70) was used to quantitatively estimate sodium intake. A short dish frequency questionnaire(DFQ 15) was used to screen subjects with high or low- salt intake. The sodium intake of male students based on DFQ 70 was significantly higher than that of female students(p<0.05). Sodium intake has significant negative effects on systolic and diastolic blood pressure(p<0.05). In the high-salt intake(HS) group, classified by DFQ 15, the number of male students was significantly higher than that of female students(p<0.01). The systolic blood pressure of the HS group was significantly higher than that of the low-salt intake(LS) group(p<0.05). Salt-related dietary behavior score and eating habit score for the HS group were significantly higher than those for the LS group(p<0.01). The sodium intake of the HS group based on DFQ 70 was significantly higher than that of the LS group(p<0.01). In these results, college students in Busan area showed high blood pressure and high sodium intake compared to Korean DRIs. The results indicate a need for various education programs to help college students practice a low-sodium diet.

목 적 : 주기성 사지운동(periodic limb movement syndrome, PLMS)은 수면 중 팔다리를 비롯한 신체 일부가 불수의적이고 주기적으로 움직이는 현상을 말한다. 여러 연구에 의하면 PLMS는 고혈압의 위험인자로 잘 알려져 있고 각각의 PLMS 이후의 혈압이 20 mm Hg까지 증가한다는 연구도 있다. 본 연구에서는 PLMS가 수면 전후 혈압의 변화에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 방 법 : 야간 수면다원검사상 수면무호흡증이 없고(respiratory distress index < 5), 렘수면행동장애, 기면병 등의 수면장애가 없는 358명(남자 176명, 여자 182명)의 18세 이상 성인을 대상으로 하였다. 이들의 수면다원검사 기록과 수면다원검사 전 저녁 수축기, 이완기 혈압, 수면다원검사 후 아침 수축기, 이완기 혈압, body mass index, 음주, 흡연, 혈압강하제 복용 유무, 벡우울척도(Beck Depression Index), 엡워스졸음척도(Epworth Sleepiness Scale), 피츠버그수면질지수(Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index)를 포함하는 임상 기록들을 수집하였다. 주기성 사지운동지수(Periodic Leg Movement Index) 15를 기준으로 15 이하인 군과 15 초과인 군으로 나누어 비교하였다. 두 군의 임상적 변수 비교는 t-test와 카이제곱 검정을 사용하였으며 repeated measure ANOVA를 사용하여 각 군에서의 검사 전후 혈압 변화 및 두 군의 혈압 변화 양상을 비교하였다. 결 과 : 대상자 전체에서 PLMS가 시간당 15초과한 군이 PLMS 15이하인 군에 비하여 수면 전후 수축기 혈압이 덜 감소하였다. 이러한 결과는 성별과 연령을 보정하였을 때에도 유의하게 나타났으나 BMI, 음주, 흡연, 혈압강하제 사용, sleep efficiency 변수들을 보정하였을 때에는 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다(0.098). 여성에서 두 군간 연령 이외의 다른 변수들은 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다($49.0{\pm}14.6$세, $57.1{\pm}14.8$세, p = 0.001). 여성의 경우, 두 군 모두 검사 전, 후 수축기 혈압은 유의한 감소를 보였다(p < 0.001). PLMI 15 이하군의 수축기 혈압이 9.7 mm Hg 감소한 것에 비해 PLMI 15 초과군의 수축기 혈압은 2.9 mm Hg 정도만이 감소하여 수면 전, 후 수축기 혈압 변화 양상이 유의하게 차이가 났다($135.2{\pm}20.3mm\;Hg{\rightarrow}125.5{\pm}18.3mm\;Hg$, $133.5{\pm}17.9mm\;Hg{\rightarrow}130.6{\pm}14.8mm\;Hg$, p = 0.010) 이러한 결과는 연령, BMI, 음주, 흡연, 혈압강하제 복용 유무, sleep efficiency 변수를 보정하여도 유의하게 나타났다(p = 0.024). 남성의 경우 두 군 모두에서 수축기 혈압이 수면 전, 후 유의하게 감소하였지만 PLMS에 의한 교호작용(interaction effect)은 나타나지 않았다. 결 론 : PLMS는 수면 중의 정상 혈압 강하 패턴의 감소와 유의한 연관성이 있었으며 혈압과 관련된 임상 변수를 보정하였을 때에는 여성에서만 유의한 연관성을 보였다. 여성에서 PLMS와 관련하여 발생할 수 있는 고혈압 및 심혈관 질환의 임상적 의미를 확인할 수 있었다.

The protective effect of human urinary trypsin inhibitor(UTI) on acute hemorrhagic shock in beagle dog was studied. Hemorrhagic shock was experimentally induced in thoracotomized beagle dogs by removing blood and maintaining low arterial blood pressure for 30 min, and then blood removed was entirely transfused back into the dogs within one hour. When the blood was transfused, UTI was administered together to check the potential protective effect of UTI on hemorrhagic shock. The arterial blood pressure recovery was accelerated slightly by UTI treatment. Blood pH and $P_{a co2}$ returned to normal level in shorter time in the UTI treatment group. These data suggest that UTI may have protective effects on experimentally induced hemorrhagic shock.

Spontaneous intracranial hypotension, a syndrome of low CSF pressure, occurs without preceding events such as lumbar puncture, back trauma, operative procedure or medical illness. The most characteristic symptom is an occipital or frontal headache which is aggrevated in the erect position and relieved in the supine position. This syndrome usually resolves spontaneously or with strict bed rest. When the headach persists or is incapacitating, more aggressive treatment may be necessary. Autologous epidural blood patch is highly effective in the management of spontaneous intracranial hypotension. Epidural blood produces an organized clot which effectively tamponade any dural CSF leak. The rapid relief of headache immediately after the infusion of blood occur by some other mechanism, such as an increase in subarachnoid pressure that is known to occur with infusion of fluid into the lumbar epidural space. We report three cases of spontaneous intracranial hypotension successfully treated with epidural blood patch.

The aim of this study is to investigate whether milk fermented by Lactiplantibacillus plantarum K79, which exhibits angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitory activity, has an effect on lowering the blood pressure of hypertensive rats and to investigate biomarker changes in their blood. Experimental group: normal group (NG, Wistar-Kyoto rats): distilled water, control group [NCG, spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR)]: distilled water, high treatment group (HTG, SHR): 500 mg/kg/day, medium treatment group (SHR): 335 mg/kg/day, low treatment group (SHR): 170 mg/kg/day, positive control group (PCG, SHR): Enalapril, 10 mg/kg/day. The experimental animals used in this study were divided into groups composed of 8 animals. In terms of weight change, a significant difference was observed between the NG and the SHR group, but there was no significant difference between the SHR group. After 8 wk of feeding, blood pressure was lowered more significantly in the HTG (209.9±13.3 mmHg) than in the NCG (230.8±7.3 mmHg). The treatment group has an effect of lowering blood pressure by significantly suppressing blood pressure-related biomarker protein expression than NG. The results obtained can be used as an antihypertensive material in a variety of food raw materials.

Purpose: The purposes of this study were to identify variables related to self-care behavior and to find factors related to the control of hypertension. A cross-sectional study was carried out to provide basic data for effective and continuous hypertension control in the low-income elderly. Methods: This study was performed with a total of 189 subjects who were hypertensive and were receiving pharmacological treatment of hypertension from a community health center in D Metropolitan City. Data were collected through a face to face survey, and systolic and diastolic blood pressure (the mean value of the two measures) were measured during May 2004. Obtained data were analyzed by $x^2$ test, t-test, multiple logistic regression and Pearson's correlation coefficient (using SPSS Version 10.1). Results: 1. According to demographical characteristics, the score of self-care behavior was significantly higher in elders living along ($47.63{\pm}7.276$) than in those living with the family ($45.19{\pm}5.501$) (p<.05), and in those with religion ($47.11{\pm}6.722$) than in those without religion ($45.01{\pm}6.110$) (p<.05) 2. As to blood pressure control, the percentage of blood pressure control within the normal range (systolic 140mmHg, diastolic below 90mmHg) was 37.03%. According to demographical characteristics, the percentage of blood pressure control was significantly lower in those without religion (p<.05). In practicing hypertension self-care behavior, those who do not control salk intake showed a significantly lower percentage of hypertension control (p<.05). The score of hypertension self-care was $48.28{\pm}4.443$ in the controlled group, and $45.42{\pm}7.399$ in the uncontrolled group, showing a significant difference (p<.01). 3. Hypertension self-care behavior was in a positive correlation with blood pressure control (r=.210, p<.05). Conclusion: Attention should be paid to self-care behavior to increase the control of hypertension in the low-income elderly. These results can be used guidances for improving self-care behavior and the control of hypertension in the low-income elderly.
