  • 경영 표준진단표를 통해 재배자 스스로 경영 진단을 할 수 있도록 하고 이를 참고하여 임가 경영 개선에 도움이 되고자 떫은감 경영 표준진단표를 개발하여 주산단지의 임가를 대상으로 적용하였다. 떫은감 경영 표준진단표는 임가 일반 현황과 경영 성과 지표, 그리고 경영 진단을 위한 3개의 대분류 항목과 18개의 중분류 항목으로 구성되어 있다. 떫은감 경영 표준진단표 작성을 위해 떫은감 주산단지 10개 시 군 241임가의 경영 실태 조사를 실시하였으며 경영수준 진단을 위해서 18개 중분류 항목의 점수를 합산하여 총점을 산출하였다. 조사 결과 241임가의 평균 점수는 57.4점이었으며 전체 임가의 62%가 40점 이상 60점 미만에 해당하는 것으로 나타났다. 세부 진단항목 결과를 살펴보면 경영기반 지표에서는 나무높이 항목의 점수가 충남 지역에서만 평균 점수보다 현저히 낮은 점수를 나타냈는데 이는 조사 지역의 나무가 30년 이상 된 고령목들이 많아 영향을 준 것으로 생각된다. 생산기술 지표에서 결실조절 항목의 전국 평균 점수는 1.96점으로 상당히 낮은데 떫은감은 단감과 달리 적뢰 적과를 거의 하지 않고 자연 낙과를 통해 스스로 조절하는 경우가 많기 때문이다. 경영 및 판매능력 지표의 자재구입 항목에서는 전국 평균 점수가 2.01점으로 조사 임가의 60% 이상이 대부분의 자재를 개별적으로 선택하고 협상하여 구입한다고 응답하였다. 공동으로 구입한다고 응답한 임가들은 대부분 작목반 단체로 구입하는 경우인 것으로 나타났다.

  • Objective: This study aimed to determine the effects of stress during slaughter of beef cattle on physiological parameters, carcass, and meat quality at a Federal Inspection Type slaughterhouse located in the southeast of Mexico. Methods: A total of 448 carcasses of male Zebu×European steers with an average age of 36 months were included. Carcass assessment of presence of bruises and bruise characteristics was carried out on each half-carcass. Blood variable indicators of stress (packed cell volume, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio, glucose, cortisol concentration) and meat quality parameters (pH, color, shear force, drip loss) were evaluated. Results: Of the 448 carcasses evaluated, 81% of the carcasses showed at least one bruise; one bruise was detected in 36.6% and two bruises in 27.0% of animals. Of the 775 bruises found, 69.2% of the bruises were grade 1 in region 3. Of the 448 carcasses studied, 69.6% showed hyperglycemia (6.91 mmol/L); 44.3% and 22.7% showed high (74.7 ng/mL) and extremely high (108.8 ng/mL) cortisol levels, respectively, indicative of inadequate handling of animals during preslaughter and slaughter. Of the carcasses evaluated, 90.4% had a pH ≥5.8 with an average of pH 6.3. In both pH groups, meat samples showed L values >37.0 (81.6%) and a shear force >54.3 N; meat pH≥5.8 group showed a drip loss of 2.5%. These findings were indicative of dark, firm, and dry (DFD) meat. According to principal component analysis, grades 1 and 2 bruises in region 3 and grade 1 bruises in region 5 were highly associated with cortisol, drip loss, and color parameters b and h and were negatively associated with L, a, and C. Conclusion: The bruises probably caused by stress-inducing situations triggered DFD meat. Appropriate changes in handling routines in operating conditions should be made to minimize stress to animals during the slaughter process to improve animal welfare and meat quality.

  • Previously standardization study for identifying 5 types of pattern identification of stroke patients has been performed and the Korean standard of pattern identification (II) was developed. In the present study we investigated the interactions between total indices designated by the Korean standard of pattern identification(KSPI II) and indices for PI of Cold-Heat and Deficiency-Excess. Indicators for Cold-Heat and Deficiency-Excess are isolated from 58 indices through the survey of oriental medicine doctors and their relationship with KSPI-II indices was analyzed by corresponding analysis method using data of 1581 stroke patients. Means and standard deviations indicated that 2 Cold indices, 14 Heat indices, 12 Deficiency indices, and 5 Excess indices were included for Cold-Heat and Deficiency-Excess pattern identification. The results of corresponding analysis shows the relationship of 57 indices and 4 types of pattern identification (excluding 1 index and 1 pattern among 58 indices and 5 patterns) using the cross-tabulation which was obtained from the clinical data. Most of Cold and Heat index were divided to dimension 1(inertia 51.9%) obtained from the result of corresponding analysis. Deficiency and Excess index were partially associated with dimension 2(inertia 31.7%). These data suggest that pattern identification of Cold-Heat plays an role in the standardization of pattern identification in stroke, although further studies are required by various trials such as analysis of surveys and clinical data.

  • Objectives: This study was conducted to investigate the effect of a 6-week low-calorie diet (LCD) program including high protein-low carbohydrate protein bar on weight loss, blood pressure, and blood lipid profile in 40 overweight women according to dietary compliance. Methods: Subjects were 62 healthy overweight women (BMI ≥ 23.0 or body fat percentage ≥ 28%), aged 20~59 yrs who were provided a high protein-low carbohydrate protein bar (each 35 g, 154 kcal, protein energy %: 28.6%, carbohydrate energy %: 38.7%) as part of dinner for 6 weeks. Forty subjects who completed the whole diet program were categorized into high compliance (HC) group (days of eating protein bar ≥ 5 weeks) or low compliance (LC) group (days < 5 weeks). Results: Energy intake significantly decreased from 1,867.5 kcal at baseline to 1,137.4 kcal at 6 weeks for the HC group and from 1,971.7 kcal to 1,362.2 kcal for the LC group, respectively. On the other hand, a significant increase in protein energy percentage was observed in each group (HC group: 3.5%, LC group: 2.2%). Both groups showed significant decreases in weight (HC group: 1.8 kg, LC group: 1.1 kg), BMI, fat mass, systolic blood pressure, total cholesterol, and LDL-cholesterol. Reduction of body fat percentage and diastolic blood pressure were only observed in the HC group. Conclusions: The inclusion of a high protein-low carbohydrate protein bar as part of a low-calorie diet for a short period can be effective to achieve weight loss and concomitantly improve blood cholesterol level without serious physiological side effects. More evident results can be achieved by eating a diet with low calorie diet including high protein-low carbohydrate protein bar for more than 5 weeks.

  • This study was done to investigate the effects of Gamisojaganggi-tang(GSGT) on immunopathologic changes in OVA-induced asthma model of mice. Pathologic indicators associated with this immune disease, which include cytokines, the number of immune-cells, immunoglobin E (IgE), were examined, and histological changes of bronchial tissues were also examined. The administration of GSGT significantly reduced the lung weight compared with control mice of OVA-induced asthma model. The administration of GSGT significantly reduced the number of total cells in BALF compared with control mice of OVA-induced asthma model. The administration of GSGT significantly reduced the number of eosinophil in BALF compared with control mice of OVA-induced asthma model. The administration of GSGT insignificantly increased the number of monocyte in BALF compared with control mice of OVA-induced asthma model. The administration of GSGT significantly reduced the number of lymphocyte in BAL compared with control mice of OVA-induced asthma model. The administration of GSGT significantly reduced the gene expression of eotaxin in lung tissue compared with control mice of OVA-induced asthma model. The administration of GSGT insignificantly reduced the IL-4 and IL-5 production in BALF compared with control mice of OVA-induced asthma model. The administration of GSGT insignificantly reduced the levels of total IgE and ovalbumin-specific IgE in BALF. The administration of GSGT significantly reduced the levels of ovalbumin-specific IgE whereas the serum levels of total IgE were insignificantly reduced compared with control mice of OVA-induced asthma model. The administration of GSGT moderately reduced bronchial alveolar narrowing, bronchiovascular edema and increase in the size of alveolar space, which shown in control mice of OVA-induced asthma model, in a dose dependent manner. Furthermore, GSGT reduced invasion of inflammatory cells, and proliferation of smooth muscle cells in bronchial tissue. These results suggested that GSGT has suppressive effects on pathologic changes associated with disease progression in asthma through the modulation of immune system. GSGT has potential to use as an anti-asthmatic agents.

  • Objective: Mulberry (Morus alba L.) is a cultivated shrub grown widely in the sub-tropical and tropical areas. It has been shown that mulberry leaf contains high levels of protein while having polyphenols as phytonutrients. Therefore, it is important to conduct an experiment to assess potential toxic level from mulberry on behavior, blood hematological and coagulation parameter using Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. Methods: Both male and female SD rats were given an intragastric administration of respective treatments of mulberry leaf intakes (control, low and high levels). Parameters of feed intake, hematological and coagulation of blood parameters, as well as liveweight changes were taken during the 7 d of adaptation, 28 d of treatment exposure, and 14 d of recovery periods, respectively. All treatment data were statistically analyzed using analysis of variance of SPSS17.0 for Windows Statistical Software following the Randomized complete block design with sex as a block. Results: Most of the parameters of the physical symptoms of the SD rats, were not significantly different (p>0.05) when compared with that of the control group. Those which remain unchanged in each dose group were, body weight (BW) gain, feed intake, the hematology and coagulation indexes. Although, there were a few individual indicators that were abnormal, but the overall physiological appearance of the rats were normal. Conclusion: Results under this experiment revealed that most hematological and coagulation parameters of the SD rats in both male and female were normal, although the weight gain of female rats in high-dose group was significantly reduced than those of the male rats. Under this study, the use of mulberry leaf up to 2 g/kg BW did not result in abnormal phenomenon in the SD rats. These findings would offer useful information for further in vivo feeding trials in animals to extensively use of mulberry leaf to improve animal production, particularly in P.R. China.

  • In order to increase the clinical value of an identification of patterns according to the eight principles (IPEP) in Korean medicine practice, The research on the Clinical Practice Guideline (CPG) of IPEP should comprehend the situation of clinical usage of IPEP practiced by Korean medicine doctors at first. Google survey form were emailed to Korean Medicine doctors registered in the Association of Korean Medicine on 04/15/2021 and the survey was closed at 04/22/2021. Data of 505 answered cases were analyzed by Frequency analysis, Chi-Square analysis, correlation analysis for understanding differences by groups. Out of 505 respondents, 57.6% have answered that they are using IPEP. It means that 42.4% of KM doctors don't use in the medical practice reversely in spite of fundamental diagnostic theory. The 64.7% respondents of no using IPEP presented their opinion about the theoretical problem that it is difficult to use because the concept of IPEP is ambiguous. And next, the 52.1% of the respondents expressed that there is no objective tools to measure and record the IPEP evidences in actual implementation. And 49.6% of the respondents also suggested that it is hard to trust and use IPEP similar to the previous comment. Even about 50% of the respondents are carrying out diagnosis and treatment using IPEP, it showed that there were several unsolved problems such as lack of understanding and practical tools or objective indicators for diagnosis of IPEP. Through the above results, the concept, usage, measurement requirements with indices and discriminant logic of IPEP were manifested as the main hopes of attending members of Korean medicine in the survey, so the IPEP CPG should make clear about these difficult but necessary assignment in the near future.

  • TCDD로 유발할 수 있는 남성 난임 원인 중 가장 큰 비율을 차지하는 것은 정자형성 장애와 정자의 질적 저하가 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해 GYB의 한의학적 처방을 이용하여 TCDD-유도 생식독성을 유발한 랫드에서 내분비기능 및 생식독성 관련 지표에 미치는 영향을 조사하고자 본 연구를 시행하였다. 수컷 SD 랫드를 5개의 그룹으로 7마리씩 나누어 실험하였다. 정상 대조군은 vehicle 및 saline을 투여하였으며, TCDD 단독투여그룹은 TCDD(2 ㎍/kg, weeks) 및 생리식염수를 복강 내 투여하였으며, 시험 군은 6주 동안 GYB (75, 150, 300 mg/kg)를 3가지 농도로 나누어 경구로 투여하였다. TCDD를 투여한 모든 군에서 체중 감소가 나타났으며, 호르몬 변화에서 GYB 300 mg/kg 투여군에서 free testosterone의 유의한(p<0.01) 감소가 나타났다. 또한 GYB 투여군의 고환조직에서 생식세포 일부 파괴, 정세관 위축 그리고 정자 수의 감소가 농도 의존적으로 개선되는 것이 관찰되었다. 또한 Johnsen's score, serotoli cell index(SCI)에서도 농도 의존적으로 개선되었다(p<0.05). 이러한 발견은 향후 남성 난임의 해결방안으로 의학적 시술이 아닌 약물요법을 효과적으로 사용할 수 있을 것으로 기대할 수 있다.
