This study investigated the health and nutritional characteristics according to household income level and obesity in Koreans aged over 50 years based on the 2005 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Subjects were classified into 3 groups by average household income with reference to the minimum monthly living expenses (MLE): low (n = 319, < 100% MLE), middle (n = 222, < 200% MLE), high (n = 411, ${\geq}$ 200% MLE) and each group was compared by BMI index. With increasing income level, the prevalence of systolic hypertension and hyperlipidemia was increased. In the low income group, serum total cholesterol, triglycerides, and fasting glucose were higher in the obese compared with the normal. In the middle and high income groups, the prevalence of hyperlipidemia and diastolic hypertension were higher in the obese. Subjects had nutritional imbalance, such as inadequate intake of calcium and potassium. With increasing income level, the percentages of protein and fat to total calorie were increased in addition to the intakes and density of nutrients. The obese in the low income group had higher intakes of energy, protein, phosphorus and higher consumption frequency of cereals and potatoes compared with the normal. It was shown that the obese of the middle and high income groups tended to have lower consumption frequency of Korean cabbage and higher frequency of fruits. The obese of high income group also had binge drinking habit. Therefore, this study suggests that specific approaches based on economic status should be considered in developing nutrition education program for the elderly.

목적: 이 연구에서는 다발성 골수종에서 두개골과 중간 허벅지 이하 하지부를 포함한 전신 $^{18}F$-FDG PET/CT 영상 획득의 필요여부를 알아보았다. 대상 및 방법: 총 30명(평균나이: $59.4{\pm}11.7$세, 남/여 17/13명)의 환자를 대상으로 두개골과 중간 허벅지 이하 하지부를 포함한 전신 $^{18}F$-FDG PET/CT 영상을 총 45개 촬영하였다. PET 영상에서 두개골 또는 중간 허벅지 이하 하지부에 주변보다 비정상적인 국소 섭취증가를 보이는 병변 유무에 따라 두 그룹으로 나누어 나이, 성별, 병기 등의 임상소견 차이를 비교해보았다. 결과: 총 45개의 전신 PET/CT 영상에서 두개골 또는 중간 허벅지 이하 하지부 병변은 14명 환자(46.7%)의 22개 스캔(48.9%)에서 발견되었다. 그 중 두개골 병변은 중간 허벅지 이하 하지부 병변에 비해 유의하게 흔히 관찰되었다(86.4% 대 40.9%, p<0.005). 이 두 환자군 사이에 종양의 양을 반영하는 혈색소 수치, 혈청 칼슘 수치, 혈청 면역글로불린 수치, 뇨 면역글로불린 수치, 혈청 크레아티닌 수치에 유의한 차이는 없었다. 두개골 또는 중간 허벅지 이하 하지에 비정상적인 국소 FDG 섭취증가를 보인 22개의 PET 영상에서 두개골 또는 중간 허벅지 이하 하지 병변으로 인하여 Durie/Salmon plus 병기가 상승된 경우는 단 1개(4.5%, p>0.05)였다. 결론: FET 영상에서 두개골 또는 중간 허벅지 이하 하지 병변은 다발성 골수종에 있어 종양의 양 및 병기 평가에 유의한 영향을 주지 못했다. 따라서 다발성 골수종에서 머리와 다리를 포함한 전신영상을 꼭 촬영할 필요는 없으며, 머리를 포함한 몸통 영상획득 방법이 가장 적절할 것으로 보인다.

The effect of the level of casein phosphopeptide (CPP) on mineral (Ca and P) bioavailabilties and bone biomarker of aged ovariectomized (OVX) Sprague-Dawley rats were studied as a model for postmenopausal bone loss. Forty five Spargue dawley rats, 220-230 g of body weight were fed a control diet (AIN 93M) or containing different level of CPP diet for 7 weeks: $0\%$ (sham control; SC, OVX control; OC), $1\%$ (OVX low CPP diet: OL), $2\%$ (OVX medium CPP diet; OM), $3\%$ (OVX high CPP diet; OH) Ca absorption was unaffected by increasing CPP content from 0 to $3\%$. Urinary Ca excretion was increased by OVX, and decreased by CPP significantly (p < 0.05) with no evident doserelationship. The urinary P excretion was increased by CPP intake in OVX rats. The fecal excretion of P given CPP decreased in OVX with dose dependent manner. Ca and P contents of femur significantly increased by adding 2 or $3\%$ of CPP when compared with OC group and OL group (p < 0.05). There were no significant differences in serum alkaline phosphatase activity and c-terminal telopeptide excretion in experimental groups. Although ovariectomy induced the increase in urinary c-terminal telopeptide excretion, 2 or $3\%$ of CPP in the diet decreased urinary c-terminal telopetide excretion significantly. These finding suggest the usefulness of CPP in the prevention of postmenopausal bone loss by decreasing urinary Ca excretion and bone resorption. Over 2 percent of CPP in the diet was effective to prevent postmenopausal bone loss.

A biomarker is needed to monitor and manage the health of pigs from heat stress (HS). Therefore, we investigated the effects of HS on growth performance, nutrient digestibility, and blood profiles in finishing pigs. A total of 12 finishing pigs (n = 12) were raised in thermal neutral (TN; 25℃) conditions for a 3-d adaptation period. After the adaption, 6 pigs were exposed to HS at 33℃ (HS33) for 5 d. The pigs were fed the same diet based on corn and soybean meal. Chromic oxide was added to all the diets at a level of 2 g·kg^-1 as an indigestible marker for the determination of the apparent total track digestibility (ATTD) of nutrients and amino acids. Blood samples were collected after the adaptation and heat treatment to verify the blood profiles. The HS33 pigs had a lower (p < 0.01) average daily feed intake (ADFI) and higher (p < 0.05) rectal temperature compared to the TN pigs. However, there was no difference in the ATTD of nutrients and amino acids. The HS33 pigs had reduced (p < 0.05) levels of serum glucose, non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA), total protein, albumin, and calcium compared to the TN pigs. However, the level of total bilirubin was increased (p < 0.05) in the HS pigs. In conclusion, HS reduced the feed intake and had an adverse effect on health. Altered blood profiles as a result of a negative energy balance are expected to be biomarkers of HS in finishing pigs.

Objective : Ssangwha-tang is a traditional medicine formula widely prescribed for a decrease of fatigue after an illness in Korea. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of Ssangwha-tang fermented by Lactobacillus fermentum (SF) on osteoclast differentiation in vitro and on bone metabolism of an ovariectomized rat in vivo. Methods : Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase activity and staining were applied to evaluate the formation of osteoclasts. Ovariectomized rats were orally administrated with SF (30 ml/kg/day) for 12 weeks. Serum aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, triglyceride, phosphate, calcium levels were determined. Effect of SF on bone loss were studied by histological analysis and the measurement of bone mineral density. Results : SF significantly inhibited tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase activity and formation of osteoclasts in RAW264.7 cells stimulated by receptor activator for nuclear factor ${\kappa}B$ (NF-${\kappa}B$) ligand (RANKL). In addition, SF significantly decreased the level of triglyceride and increased the level of low-density lipoprotein. Moreover, the decrease of trabeculae of the femur was partially prevented in ovariectomized rats administrated with SF. Conclusions : SF treatment could prevent ovariectomy induced bone loss and its effects could be medicated by the inhibition of osteoclastogenesis.

Background: Thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) acts as a master switch for inflammatory responses. Ginsenoside Rg3 (Rg3) which is an active ingredient of Panax ginseng Meyer (Araliaceae) is known to possess various therapeutic effects. However, a modulatory effect of Rg3 on TSLP expression in the inflammatory responses remains poorly understood. Methods: We investigated antiinflammatory effects of Rg3 on an in vitro model using HMC-1 cells stimulated by PMA plus calcium ionophore (PMACI), as well as an in vivo model using PMA-induced mouse ear edema. TSLP and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) levels were detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay or real-time PCR analysis. Murine double minute 2 (MDM2) and hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF1α) expression levels were detected using Western blot analysis. Results: Rg3 treatment restrained the production and mRNA expression levels of TSLP and VEGF in activated HMC-1 cells. Rg3 down-regulated the MDM2 expression level increased by PMACI stimulation. The HIF1α expression level was also reduced by Rg3 in activated HMC-1 cells. In addition, Rg3-administered mice showed the decreased redness and ear thickness in PMA-irritated ear edema. Rg3 inhibited the TSLP and VEGF levels in the serum and ear tissue homogenate. Moreover, the MDM2 and HIF1α expression levels in the ear tissue homogenate were suppressed by Rg3. Conclusion: Taken together, the current study identifies new mechanistic evidence about MDM2/HIF1α pathway in the antiinflammatory effect of Rg3, providing a new effective therapeutic strategy for the treatment of skin inflammatory diseases.

칼슘과 마그네슘 등의 무기질 섭취는 순환기계 질병과 밀접한 관련성이 있는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 여성은 폐경 이후 에스트로겐의 분비가 감소하면서 혈중 지질이 상승하게 된다. 따라서 폐경과 칼슘의 지속적인 결핍으로 인해 폐경 후 여성은 심혈관질환의 고위험군으로 분류될 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 폐경 후 여성에서 칼슘과 마그네슘의 섭취수준이 지질패턴의 개선에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여 총 50마리의 흰쥐를 각 10마리씩, 난소절제-저칼슘군, 난소절제-적정칼슘군, 난소절제-저칼슘마그네슘보충군, 난소절제-적정칼슘마그네슘보충군, Sham 대조군으로 분류하여 12주간 사육한 후 혈중과 간조직 중 지질을 분석하였다. 그 결과 혈중 총콜레스테롤, 중성지질, HDL-콜레스테롤은 군간 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았으며, LDL-콜레스테롤은 난소절제군이 Sham 대조군에 비해 높았다 (p < 0.01). 난소절제-적정칼슘군의 AI (Atherogenic index), TPH(Total cholesterol/HDL-C)와 LPH (LDL-C/HDL-C)는 난소절제-저칼슘군에 비해 유의적으로 낮게 나타났으며 (각 p < 0.05), 난소절제-적정칼슘마그네슘보충군의 LDL, AI, TPH 수준은 난소절제-저칼슘군에 비해 유의적으로 낮았다.(각 P < 0.05). 간의 총 지질함량은 난소절제-적정칼슘군과 난소절제-적정칼슘마그네슘보충군이 난소절제-저칼슘마그네슘보충군에 비해 유의적으로 낮게 나타났고, 난소절제-저칼슘군과 난소절제-저칼슘마그네슘보충군의 간의 총 지질 함량은 Sham 대조군에 비해 유의적으로 높았다 (p < 0.01). 간조직 중 총콜레스테롤함량은 군간 유의한 차이가 없었다. 이상의 결과를 통하여 난소절제시 적정칼슘의 섭취가 혈중 AI와 TPH, LPH 및 간조직 중 총 지질함량을 감소시켜 칼슘결핍군에 비하여 심혈관질환의 위험을 낮추는 효과를 보였으며, 적정칼슘에 마그네슘의 보충이 실시되었을 때 칼슘결핍군보다 LDL-콜레스테롤, AI, TPH가 감소하는 효과를 보였다. 이러한 결과를 통하여 폐경 후 여성에서 심혈관 질환의 예방을 위해 칼슘의 적정한 섭취가 중요하며, 마그네슘 보충에 의한 심혈관질환에 대한 효과는 적정한 수준의 칼슘을 섭취할 때 나타나기 때문에 폐경 후 여성의 심혈관질환의 예방 및 관리차원에서 마그네슘의 보충은 칼슘섭취와의 관계를 반드시 고려하여야 할 것으로 사료된다.
