The genetic effects of restraint stress challenge on HPA axis and the therapeutic effect of Boshimgeonbi-Tang on the stress were studied with cDNA microarray analyses on hypothalamus using an immobilization-stress mouse as stress model. Male CD-1 mice were restrained in a tightly fitted and ventilated vinyl holder for 2hours once a day, and this challenge was repeated for seven consecutive days. The body weights of the immobilization-stress mice were diminished about 25 percent degree as compared to normal ones. Seven days later, total RNA was extracted from the organs of the mouse, body-labeled with CyDye/sup TM/ fluorescence dyes (Amersham Bioscience Co., NJ), and then hybridized to cDNA microarray chip. Scanning and analyzing the array slides were carried out using GenePix 4000 series scanner and GenePix Pro/sup TM/ analyzing program, respectively. The expression profiles of 109 genes out of 6000 genes on the chip were significantly modulated in hypothalamus by the immobilization stress. Energy metabolism-, lipid metabolism-, apoptosis- and signal transduction-related genes were transcriptionally activated whereas DNA repair-, protein biosynthesis-, and structure integrity-related genes were down-regulated in hypothalamus. The 58 genes were up-regulated by the mRNA expression folds of 1.5 to 7.9. and the 51 genes were down-regulated by 1.5 - 3.5 fold. The 20 genes among them were selected to confirm the expression profiles by RT-PCR. The mRNA expression levels of Tnfrsf1a (apoptosis), Calm2 (cell cycle), Bag3 (apoptosis), Hspe1 (protein folding), Aatk (apoptosis), Dffa (apoptosis), Itgb1 (cell adhesion), Vcam1 (cell adhesion), Fkbp5 (protein folding), BDNF (neuron survival) were restored to the normal one by the treatment of Boshimgeonbi-Tang.

The maximum breathing capacity (MBC) and the maximum mid-expiratory flow rate (MMF) are widely used in evaluation of the ventilatory function, among various parameters of pulmonary function. The MBC volume is the amount of gas which can be exchanged per unit time during maximal voluntary hyperventilation. Performance of this test, unlike that of single breath maneuvers, is affected by the integrity of the respiratory bellows as a whole including such factors are respiratory muscle blood supply, fatigue, and progressive trapping of air. Because of this, the MBC and its relation to ventilatory requirement correlates more closely with subjective dyspnea than does any other test. The MMF is the average flow rate during expiration of the middle 50% of the vital capacity. The MMF is a measurement of a fast vital capacity related to the time required for the maneuver and the MMF relates much better to other dynamic tests of ventilatory function and to dyspnea than total vital capacity, because the MMF reflects the effective volume, or gas per unit of time. Therefore, it is important to have a prediction formula with one can compute the normal value for the subject and the compare with the measured value. However, the formulas for prediction of both MBC and MMF of the Korean children and adolescents are not yet available in the present. Hence, present investigation was attempt to derive the formulas for prediction of both MBC and MMF of the Korean children and adolescents. MBC and MMF were measured in 1,037 healthy Korean children and adolescents (1,035 male and 1,002 female) whose ages ranged from 8 to 18 years. A spirometer (9L, Collins) was used for the measurement of MBC and MMF. Both MBC and MMF were measured 3times in a standing position and the highest values were used. For measurement, the $CO_2$ absorber and sadd valve were removed from the spirometer in order to reduce the resistance in the breathing circuit and the subject was asked to breathe as fast and deeply as possible for 12 seconds in MBC and to exhale completely as fast as possible after maximum inspiration for MMF. During the measurement, investigator stood by the subject to give a constant encouragement. All the measured values were subsequently converted to values at BTPS. The formulas for MBC and MMF were derived by a manner similar to those for Baldwin et al (1949) and Im (1965) as function of age and BSA or age and height. The prediction formulas for MBC (L/min, BTPS) and MMF (L/min, BTPS) of the Korean children and adolescents as derived in this investigation are as follows: For male, MBC=[41.70+{$2.69{\times}Age(years)$}]${\times}BSA$ $(m^{2})$ MBC=[0.083+{$0.045{\times}Age(years)$}]${\times}Ht$ (cm) For female, MBC=[45.53+{$1.55{\times}Age(years)$}]${\times}BSA$ $(m^2)$ MBC=[0.189+{$0.029{\times}Age(years)$}]${\times}Ht$ (cm) For male, MMF= [0.544+{$0.066{\times}Age(years)$}]${\times}Ht$ (cm) For female, MMF=[0.416+{$0.064{\times}Age(years)$}]${\times}Ht$ (cm)

soybean hypocotyl에서 분리한 미토콘드리아로부터 submitochondrial particles와 matrix 단백질 추출액을 준비하고 전기분해법으로 제조한 superoxide를 처리하여 malate dehydrogenase 및 cytochrome C oxidase의 불활성화와 mitochondrial membrane의 과산화를 각각 조사하였다. 막에 결합되어 있는 cytochrome C oxidase나 수용액상태의 malate dehydrogenas는 모두 $O^{-}_{2}$에 대해 매우 민감하게 불활성화되었다. 즉 dismutation 반응이 빠르게 진행되어 실질적으로 효소의 불활성화에 기여하게 될 농도는 대단히 낮을 것으로 추정되는 $O^{-}_{2}$의 명목상 처리농도 1.4mM 전후에서 두 효소는 그 활성을 완전히 상실하였다. 한편 malondialdehyde의 생성을 지표로 하여 측정된 membrane 과산화는 인지질로서만 이루어진 liposome의 경우보다는 다소 낮은 수준이었으나 무시할 수는 없는 정도였다. mitochondrial membrane의 과산화가 상대적으로 억제된 것은 막에 결합되어 있는 항산화제 및 단백질들에 의한 $O^{-}_{2}$소거효과에 기인하였으리라 해석된다. 식물 미토콘드리아의 대표적인 대사과정인 TCA cycle과 호흡전자전달반응의 성분효소들인 malate dehydrogenase와 cytochrome C oxidase가 불활성화되었고 membrane이 과산화 되었다는 사실은, 식물의 냉해와 광피해 발현기작에서 공히공통적인 화학적 인자로 인정되는 $O^{-}_{2}$의 과잉생성 및 축적이 그것의 주 생성처인 미토콘드리아의 생화학적 기능과 구조에 미칠수 있는 파괴적 효과를 적절히 지시하는 것이다.

A review of this literature and discussions reveal a development of ideas concerning the elements of nursing models. The elements of a nursing model are the nurses view of the human being, nursing's goal, and nursing activities. It has long been recognized that human beings, at one time or another, require nursing care. Varieties of literature were reviewed in regard to the human being as recipient of nursing care through the theory development in nursing. Florence Nightingale initiated the modern era of nursing and described more clearly man as the recipient of nursing care. She looked at man as responding to the laws of nature whether the person was healthy or sick. Henderson added to Nightingale's concept of man , the recipient of nursing care by emphasizing that man is a whole, complete, and independent being. Her view is further specified by her enumeration of the activities the human being must perform. Johnson has developed a very comprehensive view of man as the recipient of nursing care. Man is a behavioral system which has a tendency to achieve and maintain stability in patterns of functioning. Like Nightingale, Johnson sees that similar patterns occur in both health and illness. Johnson postulates that the whole behavioral system of the human is composed of eight sub-systems: affiliative, achievement, aggressive, dependency, eliminative, ingestive, restorative, sexual. Roger's main contribution to the development of nursing models was her emphasis upon unitary man. She pointed out that man is a unified whole, possessing his own integrity and manifesting characteristics that“are more than and different from the sum of his parts.”Rogers focuses on the life processes of the human and points out that these processes have the following characteristics. Wholeness, openness, unidirectionality, pattern and organization, sentence, and thought. According to Roy, man is a biopsychosocial being in constant interaction with a changing environment. To cope with this changing environment, man has certain innate and acquired mechanisms. Man's ability to respond positively or to adapt, depends upon the degree of the change taking place and the state of the person coping with the change. When she analyzes man as an adaptive organism she further describes man as being composed of four adaptive modes: physiological needs, self-concept, role function, and interdependence. Based on the literary review through the theory development in nursing, general approach by a unified nursing model to a view of the recipient of nursing care may be stated as follows: Man is a unified whole composed of subsystems with a flexible and normal line of defense; his internal regulating mechanisms help him to cope with a changing environment; he functions by the principles of homeodynamics.

This study aims to evaluate the anti-inflammatory effect of Coptidis Rhizoma (CR) extract for atopic dermatitis through maintaining skin barrier and regulating Th2 cell differentiation. We divided NC/Nga mice into 3 groups as follows; atopy-like dermatitis induced group with CR treatment (CT, n=10), no treatment group(Ctrl), atopy-like dermatitis elicited group(AE). Atopy-like dermatitis was induced to NC/Nga mice by sensitizing with dermatophagoides farinae(DfE) on 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, and 13th week. After inducing atopic dermatitis, CR extract was administered 20 mg/kg daily for the experimental duration to the CT group. We measured the integrity of lipid layers in the epidermis and Th2 differentiation through immunohistochemical staining against filaggrin, loricrin, IL-4, and IL-13. We also measured the distribution of subcutaneous collagen fibers by the Masson's trichrome staining. Administration of CR significantly inhibited the reduction of lipid layers in the skin that caused atopy. The expression of IL-4, IL-13, each of which is a cytokine secreted by T helper type 2 (Th2) cells, was markedly suppressed in the CT group as compared with AE group (p<0.05). CR treatment also decreased the expression of iNOS, $p-I{\kappa}B$. Atopic dermatitis induced dermatological damage to skin, such as hyperplasia of epithelium, and capillary proliferation was significantly reduced by CR administration. CR effectively inhibited the thinning of the skin barrier and inflammatory responses in atopic dermatitis-induced mice. In particular, it showed anti-inflammatory effects by reducing the expression of IL-4 and IL-13, Th2 cell cytokines, which play a crucial role in development of atopic dermatitis. Therefore, CR can be a good candidate to ameliorate and treat atopic dermatitis.

Rodent model for chronic cerebral hypoperfusion caused by bilateral carotid artery occlusion (BCAO) show clinically relevant evidences for vascular dementia and impairments of synaptic plasticity in the hippocampus. The purpose of this study was to evaluate effect of fermented garlic (F-Garlic) extract with NO metabolites on cognitive behaviors, synaptic plasticity, and molecular events in the hippocampus following BCAO. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided three experimental groups into: control+water; BCAO+water; BCAO+F-Garlic. Animals were treated with oral administration of F-Garlic in tap water as a drinking water after surgery for 4 weeks. On passive avoidance test and Y-maze test, BCAO+water showed a significant decrease in step-through latency and spontaneous alteration, indicating deficit of hippocampal memory formation but the treatment of F-Garlic significantly increased these cognitive behaviors. In control+water, a robust increase in the amplitude of evoked field excitatory postsynaptic potentials was observed by theta burst stimulation to hippocampal neural circuit indicating formation of long-term potentiation (LTP) in the hippocampal CA1. BCAO+water showed a highly significant deficit in LTP induction 4 weeks after BCAO. On other hand, daily oral administration of F-Garlic extract caused the marked preservation of LTP induction. Moreover, parvalbumin was markedly reduced in the CA1, especially, in the stratum radiatum of BCAO+water. In contrast, BCAO+F-Garlic mitigate a significantly reduction of the parvalbumin. In summary, these results suggest that daily oral administration of F-Garlic extract can ameliorate cognitive memory deficit through the preservation of synaptic plasticity and interneurons integrity in the hippocampus in rodent model of chronic cerebral hypoperfusion.

Circadian rhythm is entrained in the 24-hour time interval by periodic factors in the environment, known as zeitgeber. But most rotating work schedules are outside the range of the entrainment of the pacemaker timing the human circadian sleep - wake cycle. It has been postulated that physiological and emotional disturbances occur in most human functions when the circadian rhythm is disturbed. So application of circadian principles to the design of shift schedules can aid in maintaining the temporal integrity of the circadian system and thereby minimize for the shift worker any detrimental consequences of circadian disruption. This study was a quasi-experimental study to test the effect of shift intervals for the clinical nurse on the circadian rhythm. Twenty nurses newly employed in general units of two hospitals were selected as an experimental group and twelve college nursing students as a control group. Both groups were selected according to an established criteria using a purposive sampling technique. Ten subjects were assigned to a weekly shift group and another ten to a biweekly shift group engaged in a semi -continuous shift schedule(sunday off) with a backward direction, that is, morning -evening - night shift. The control group worked a morning shift for 42 days. Oral temperature rhythm, waking tim, sleep - wake cycle, fatigue, and mental performance were measured during the experimental period. The data collection period was from April 30, 1990 to June 10, 1990. MANOVA, paired t-test, ANOVA, and Student Newman Keuls method were used for statistical analysis. The results are summarized as follows. 1. Phase delay in the acrophase of temperature rhythm was shown according to the backward rotating shift. A complete adaptation to work on the night shift was achieved between the sixth and ninth day of the night shift. 2. There was no difference in either waking time or sleep- wake cycle according to the duration of the working day for every shift group. Significant difference was found in the waking time and the sleep -wake cycle for subjects on the morning, evening, and night shift in both of the shift groups(weekly shift group : λ＝0.121, p＜0.01, λ＝0.112, p＜0.01, biweekly shift group : λ＝0.116, p＜0.01, λ＝0.084, p＜0.01). 3. There was no difference in fatigue between the first working day and the last working day for the control group and for the biweekly shift group. In the weekly shift group, physical fatigue was significantly different for the first day and the sixth day of the night shift(t＝-2.28, p＜0.05). Physical fatigue and total fatigue on the first day of the night shift showed a significant difference among the control group, the weekly shift group, and the biweekly shift group(F＝5.79, p＜0.01, F＝4.56, p＜0.05). There was a significant difference between the shift groups and the control group(p＜0.05), Physical fatigue, neurosensory fatigue and total fatigue on the last day of the night shift showed a significant difference among the control group, the weekly shift group, and the biweekly shift group(F＝12.65, p＜0.01, F＝7.77, p＜0.01, F＝9.68, p＜0.01). There was a significant difference between the shift groups and the control group(p＜0.05). 4. No difference in mental performance was seen between the first day and the last day of work in each case. An arithmatic test on the first day of the night shift revealed a significant difference among the control group, the weekly shift group, and the biweekly shift group(F＝3.79, p＜0.05). There was a significant difference between the shift groups and the control group(p＜0.05) . The digital symbol substitution test and the arithmetic test on the last day of the night shift showed a significant difference among the control group, the weekly shift group, and the biweekly shift group(F＝3.68, p＜0.05, F＝5.55, p＜0.01), and both showed a significant difference between the shift groups and the control group(p＜0.05). Accordingly, this study showed that during night duty, the waking time, sleep- wake cycle, and fatigue increased and mental performance decreased compared with morning and evening duty. It was also found that the weekly shift group had a higher fatigue score on the sixth day of night duty as compared to the -first day, but the waking time, sleep- wake cycle, and mental performance revealed no difference for the duration of the night duty or between shift groups, and complete adaptation of temperature rhythm was achieved between the sixth and ninth day of night duty. It is possible to conclude from these results that for intermediate circadian type in a healthy young woman, a biweekly shift system is more compatible with the circadian timing system than weekly shift system.

세포막의 결합장치들은 형태학적으로나 기능적으로 분화된 특이한 구조이며 각기 인접한 세포막 사이의 특징적인 부위에 위치한다. 그러나 이들 결합장치가 간세포의 기능상태에 연관하여 미세구조적으로 어떠한 변화를 보이는지에 관해서는 아직 잘 알려져 있지 않다. 본 연구는 간세포의 기능적 변동에 따르는 간세포막 사이 결합장치의 형태학적 변화를 알아보기 위하여 정상군과 8일간 기아 시킨 기아군으로 구분한 휜쥐 ($Wister,\;{\uparrow},\;250{\sim}280g$)에서 절취된 간조직을 박절편과 급속동결할 단복제법에 의거 표본을 제작하여 이들 결합장치의 미세구조상을 비교 고찰하였다. 그 결과 담세관주위의 폐쇄띠는 기아상태에서 현저히 감축되거나 소실되어 있었는데 이러한 소견은 박절편과 급속동결할단복제에서 다 같이 관찰되었으며 기아상태하에서 결합반과 교통반의 현저한 증가를 볼 수 있었다. 또한 정상상태하에서 이들 결합장치가 비교적 일정한 구조를 유지하고 있을 것이라는 일반적인 견해와는 달리 본 연구에서는 박절편이나 급속동결할단복제에서 다 같이 폐쇄띠가 부위에 따라 현저한 구조적 차이를 보였다. 본 연구에서 얻어진 이러한 결과로 미루어 폐쇄띠의 감축이나 소실은 기아로 인한 간세포의 기능저하가 담즙물질의 생성을 저해하게 됨으로서 담세관의 내압이 저하된 데 기인된 현상으로 생각된다. 또한 결합반의 증가는 기아로 인하여 감축된 간세포를 지지하므로서 간조직의 유지를 도우려는데 있었을 것이며 교통반의 증가는 기아로 인한 간세포의 기능적 저하가 간세포상호간의 물질교환을 필요로 하였기 때문이었을 것으로 추정된다. 특히 정상상태하에서도 부위에 따라 폐쇄띠의 미세구조적 변화가 있었던 것은 이 결합장치가 간세포의 기능이나 담세관의 상태에 민감하게 반응하기 때문일 것으로 생각된다.

본 논문에서는 선형 판별분석 (LDA: Linear Discriminant Analysis)과 공통벡터 추출방법을 이용한 음성인식방법을 제안하였다. 음성신호는 화자의 성별, 나이, 출생지, 주위 잡음, 정신적 상태, 발성기관의 구조 등과 같은 다양한 정보를 포함하고 있다. 이로 인해 같은 음성신호라 할지라도 서로 다른 화자가 발성하게 되면 서로 다른 특성을 보이게 된다. 음성신호의 이러한 성질은 같은 음성군 (class)에 포함된 공통된 특성벡터를 추출하는 일을 상당히 어렵게 한다. 음성신호에서 공통된 특징 벡터를 추출하는 방법은 KLT (Karhunen-Loeve Transformation)와 같이 선형 대수적인 접근방법이 많이 사용되어지고 있으나, 본 논문에서는 M. Bilginer et al.이 제안한 공통벡터 추출 방법을 사용하였다. M. Bilginer et al.이 제안한 방법은 주어진 훈련 음성신호들에 대하여 최적의 공통 벡터를 추출하여 주면서 공통벡터 추출에 사용된 훈련 데이터에 대해서는 100%의 인식결과를 보여준다. 그러나 공통벡터 추출을 위한 훈련 음성신호의 수를 무한히 늘릴 수 없다는 점과 공통벡터들간의 구별정보 (discriminant information)가 정의되지 않았다는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 단어그룹간 (class) 구별정보를 추출된 공통벡터와 결합해 단어간의 오인식률 (error rate)을 감소시킬 수 있는 방법과 공통벡터 추출방법에 적합한 파라미터 가공 방법을 제안하였다. 공통벡터 추출방법은 음성신호의 시간 축 정규화 방법과 벡터의 차원 크기에 따라 인식시간과 인식률에 영향을 받는다. 따라서 부적절한 시간 축 정렬과 너무 큰 벡터의 차원 수는 인식률 저하 등과 같이 알고리즘의 효율성을 떨어뜨린다. 본 논문에서 제안한 방법을 사용하여 실험한 결과 알고리즘의 효율성이 증가되었으며, 기존방법보다 약 2％정도의 향상된 인식률을 얻을 수 있었다.낮추는 효과를 나타내었다.다. 이상의 결과를 통하여 추출 온도와 용매 농도에 따른 수율의 차이가 있었으며 free radical 소거 활성에서는 종자 에탄을 추출물이 과피 에탄올 추출물 보다 145배 이상의 현저히 높은 활성을 나타내었다.을 나타내었다.'Lian(연)' : repeatability, continuance, plenty and intercommunicate, 2.
