The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship among perceived health status, self-esteem, self-efficacy and health promoting behavior, and to determine the predictors of health promoting behavior in post-mastectomy patients. The study, a descriptive correlational study, was done with structural questionnaires. A total of 51 post-mastectomy subjects from C university hospital in Kwang-ju, South Korea completed mail-in self-reporting questionnaires during a three month period from March to June, 1999. The data were collected using Lawstone's(1982) perceived health status scale, Rosenberg's(1965) self-esteem scale, the modified self-efficacy scale(Shere et al, 1982), and the modified health promoting lifestyle profile (Walker et al, 1987). The data obtained were analyzed according to percentage, mean and standard deviation, principal component analysis, varimax rotation, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation, and stepwise multiple regression. The results were as follows: 1. The health promoting behavior measurement resulted in six factors. Each factor was labelled as follows: self-actualization, nutrition, stress management, exercise, health responsibility and interpersonal support. The total percent of variance explained by the six factors was 58.4%. 2. The mean score of health promoting behavior was 85.92(range 58~117). The scores of six factor were nutrition 3.20, self-actualization 2.59, stress management 2.58, interpersonal support 2.58, health responsibility 2.49, and exercise 2.34 on a four point scale. 3. When the score of health promoting behavior factors were compared by general characteristics. Factor I: self-actualization, differed significantly by the frequency of pregnancy (F=3.06, p=.037). Factor II: nutrition differed significantly by drinking experience(t=-2.26, p=.028) and the pre- or post stage of menopause(F=2.69, p=078). FactorIII: stress management differed significantly depending on regularity of mensturation(t=-2.12, p= .042). FactorIV: exercise differed significantly by type of religion (F=2.49, p=.072), marital status(F=5.03, p=.010), and feeding type (F=2.64, p=.036). Factor V: health responsibility differed significantly by regularity of mensturation(t=2.18, p=.037). 4. The total health promoting behavior score was significantly related to self-esteem and perceived health status(r=.610, p.006; r= .378, p=.006). The score of selfactualization also corresponded with selfesteem and perceived health status(r=.556, p=.001; r=.343, p=.013). 5. The predictor to explain the score of health promoting behavior was self-esteem, which accounted for 37.1% of the total variance. The predictor to explain the score of self-actualization was self-esteem, which accounted for 30.9% of the total variance. The score of nutrition was primarily affected by both premenopause and drinking experience, which accounted for 13.1% and 9.5% respectively. Finally, the score of exercise was dictated by marriage, Buddhism, no experience of breast feeding, which accounted for 17%, 9.8%, & 5.2% respectively. In conclusion, self-esteem is the main predictor for health promoting behavior in post-mastectomy women. These findings suggest a need for nursing strategies which promote self-esteem in such patients.

Objectives: This study was performed to elicit the effectiveness of a herbal formula, Kamisoyo-san (Jiaweixiaoyaosan) on enhancing ovarian function in infertile woman with ovarian dysfunction. Methods: 28 patients who initially visited between November 2006 and February 2009 and were administered Kamisoyo-san until May 2009 were retrospectively evaluated for their ovarian function by means of basal FSH (b-FSH), menstrual cycle, body mass index (BMI), and body fat ratio. To identify the major factor of improving ovarian function, 28 patients were classified into two groups by criteria of patent factors, such as pre-administration b-FSH, patient age, and treatment duration, respectively. Two groups were compared in terms of pregnancy percentage, b-FSH, menstrual cycle, BMI, and body fat ratio. Results: Post-administration b-FSH significantly decreased in comparison with pre-administration (p=0.004). The higher group (b-FSH $\geq$ 25mIU/mL) in pre-administration b-FSH was more effective in decrease of post-administration b-FSH than the lower one (10mIU/mL < b-FSH < 25mIU/mL). Conclusion: Kamisoyo-san may have a therapeutic effect on the infertility of child bearing period woman with ovarian dysfunction.

Many women in the world have suffered from anemia produced by menstruation, pregnancy and delivery. In the theory of oriental medicine, a sour taste is believed to have a tonic effect on the blood. Thus this paper is to investigate the effect of sour tastes on the improvement in anemia-induced female mice, using citric acid and Fructus schizandrae(五味子). The method used in this experiment was the change of RBC, WBC, Hemoglobin, Hematocrit, Fe, and TIBC in the blood of female mice who were fed citric acid and Fructus schizandrae(五味子). The results obtained were as follows ; 1. Compared with the control group (anemia- induced group without treatment), the mean number of RBC in the blood of mice was significantly increased only in evaluating the change of sample group fed Fructus schizandrae (五味子) 500mg/kg. 2. Compared with the control group (anemia- induced group without treatment), the mean number of WBC in the blood of mice was not significantly larger in both sample groups fed citric acid and Fructus schizandrae(五味子). 3. Compared with the control group (anemia- induced group without treatment), the mean number of Hemoglobin in the blood of mice was significantly larger only in evaluating the change of the sample group fed Fructus schizandrae(五味子). 4. Compared with the control group (anemia- induced group without treatment), the mean percentage of Hematocrit in blood of mice was significantly increased only in evaluating the change of sample group fed Fructus schizandrae(五味子) 500mg/kg and sample group fed Fructus schizandrae(五味子) 250mg/kg for 3days. 5. Compared with control group (anemia- induced group without treatment), the mean volume of Fe in serum of mice was significantly increased only in evaluating the change of sample group fed Fructus schizandrae(五味子) 500mg/kg. 6. Compared with control group (anemia- induced group without treatment), the mean TIBC in serum of mice was significantly increased only in evaluating the change of sample group fed Fructus schizandrae(五味子) 500mg/kg and sample group fed Fructus schizandrae(五味子) 250mg/kg for 7days. According to these results, a sour taste is presumed to have a general tonic effect on anemia, but more study must be taken on the effects of citric acid in improving female anemia.

The traditional herbal medicine, Jackyakgamcho-tang(JGT), was reported to decrease serum testosterone levels and make pregnancy possibel in anovulatory woman and rat. JGT contains Paeoniae Radix(PR) and Glycyrrhizae Radix(GR) in equal amount. This study was designed to investigate the effect of JGT and its components(PR, GR, paeoniflorin and glycyrrhizin) on uterine and ovarian responses, follicular development, and estrogen secretion in the immature rat. The samples(water extracts of JGT, PR, GR; pure compound of paeoniflorin and glycyrrhizin) were administered orally to rats from the 21th day of age to the 28th or 30th days of age for 7 or 9 days. JGT(400mg/kg) and PR(100mg/kg, 200mg/kg) treatments significantly increased serum estradiol above levels in control rats, but both GR and glycyrrhizin had no effect on this parameter. Gross observation and histological analysis revealed that an increased number of growing follicules was observed in the ovaries of JGT and PR treated rat. However the lutenized follicles and ova present in the oviducts were not observed in all rats except one treated with estrogen as a positive control. These results indicate that JGT stimulates the estrogen production and follicular maturation in the immature rat and PR is the main component to induce such reaction.

GnRH는 10개의 아미노산으로 구성된 호르몬으로서 생식기능을 조절, 관장하는 중요한 역할을 담당하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 특히 임신 중에는 태반에서 hCG의 분비를 조절하는 중요한 역할을 한다. 최근 사람의 두 번째 GnRH 유전자가 발견되었으며 그 10개의 아미노산 서열은 닭에서 두 번째로 발견된 GnRH (chicken GnRH-II)와 동일한 것으로 확인되었다. 이제까지 사람에서의 두 번째 GnRH (GnRH-II)의 발현은 중뇌와 신장에서 보고된 바 있으며, 본 연구자들에 의해서 처음으로 사람의 자궁내막에서의 발현이 보고되었다 (Cheon et al., 2001). 이에 본 연구에서는 임신초기의 태반조직에서 GnRH-II의 mRNA와 Peptide가 발현되는가를 조사하였다. 본 연구결과를 통해 태반에서 발현되는 GnRH-II mRNA는 두 가지 형태라는 것이 확인되었으며, 특히 GAP 부위에 21개의 뉴클레오티드 결실을 갖는 작은 전사체는 조직 특이적인 alternative splicing 기작에 의하여 태반조직에서만 특이적으로 발현되는 것으로 확인되었다. 면역화학염색법을 이용하여 GnRH-II peptide의 발현을 조사한 결과, 세포영양막과 융합영양막의 세포질에서 모두 발현되는 것으로 확인되었으며, 특히 세포영양막에서 더 많은 양이 발현되었다. 이상의 결과는 임신초기 태반에서 기존의 GnRH (GnRH-I)이외에도 다른 아미노산 서열의 GnRH-II가 발현된다는 사실을 말해주며 이는 GnRH-II 역시 태반조직에서 임신의 유지 및 생식기능의 조절에 관여할 가능성을 시사한다 하겠다.

Objective : Samulatang (herbal description) is much used for women's disease in Korean Traditional Medicine. The aim of this study is to evaluate reproductive toxic effect by Samultang in pregnant rats and fetuses, and ascertain a dose-response relationship Method : Pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats were administered with the Samultang at single, double and quadruple dose for 20 days, orally. Pregnant rats were sacrificed at 20th day of gestation, and observed internal and reproductive organs. Live fetuses of gestation were randomly selected and fixed in 95% ethanol. Fetuses were stained with alcian blue and alizarin red S. We observe maternal body weight,, index associated pregnancy, and skeletal malformations in fetus Result : Maternal body weight of Samultang treated group has increased, side effect was not found in maternal body compared to that of control group. There were no significant difference in internal and reproductive organs. Double concentration administered group had lowest value in number of implantation, live fetuses, implantation rate and delivery rate, Also double concentration administered group showed higher early and late resorption rate than the other group. But, these are not significant. In the sex ratio, number of females, bigger than number of males in all Samultang administered groups. The fetuses of dams treated with Samultang didn't showed external and skeletal malformation. Vertebral and sternal variations were observed in single, double and quadruple concentration administered group but, compared to the control, those variations were insignificant. There were no significant changes in number of ribs, cervical, thoracic, lumber, sacral and caudal vertebrae Conclusion : Samultang is not expected to affect on pregnant rats and fetus about maternal body weight and number of live fetuses. There were no significant changes in organ weight, reproductive organs. Although skeletal variations were showed in vertebrae and sternum, treated groups were shown insignificant changes in skeletal variation
