The present investigation was conducted to evaluate the regulation of sleep architecture by the red ginseng water extract (RGE) in acutely and chronically restraint stressed rats. Adult rats were fitted with sleep.wake recording electrodes. Following post-surgical recovery, rats were extensively habituated for freely moving polygraphic recording conditions. Polygraphic signs of sleep-wake activities were recorded for 24 h after RGE administration and induction of stress and were analyzed to understand the regulation of sleep architecture. Acute stress decreased wakefulness and increased total sleep, non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep in both the daytime and nighttime recording. RGE shortened the daytime NREM and REM sleep, without changing the wakefulness and total sleep. RGE increased nighttime wakefulness, and decreased total, NREM and REM sleep. Chronic stress increased wakefulness and decreased total sleep in the daytime recording, and increased REM and decreased NREM sleep in both the day and night time recording. RGE ameliorated chronic stress and induced alterations of REM and NREM sleep in the day and night time sleep architecture. Acute and chronic stress could also induce alternations in cortex electroencephalogram (EEG) recording during NREM, REM sleep and wakefulness. These findings suggest that RGE may modulate the sleep behavior in acutely and chronically stressed rats and the ameliorating effect of RGE on the sleep architecture may involve in modulation of $\alpha$-, $\theta$- and $\delta$- wave activities of the cortical EEG.

The clinical validity of a korean EEG and EP mapping system(Neuronics) was evaluated with schizophrenic patients(n=20), normal controls(n=19), and 10 patients with central nervous system disease(8 patients with cerebrovascular accident, 1 patient with brain mass, and 1 patient with periodic paralysis). In the normal control group, the pattern of resting computerized EEG with eyes closed showed normal parieto-occipital dominance of alpha wave. Compared with normal controls, schizophrenic patients had more delta activity in the frontal region, and less alpha activity especially in the parieto-occipital region. In most cases patients with cortical organic lesions(n=5) revealed increased delta and theta activity and decreased alpha activity on the lesion areas. These findings were compatible with their MRI and clinical findings. However in the cases of subcortical lesions(n=5) EEG showed various findings which suggest diverse influences of subcortical abnormalities on cortical activities. The P300 of schizophrenic group was smaller and more delayed than those of normal controls. These results are generally compatible with the previous studies using other EEG and EP mapping systems consequenty and suggest that the this EEG and EP mapping system(Neuronics) has clinical validity.

Purpose : This study purposed on the understanding of psychology in the elderly women using depression scale and electroephalography. The subjects were thirty elderly women in geriatric care hospital. All participants were elderly women over 65 years old. The subjects signed up with informed consent and they were divided into a normal elderly group, an exercise elderly group and a hospital elderly group. They were randomly assigned with 10 persons. Methods : The study instruments were Geriatric Depression Scale(GDS) and Poly-G-I. Brain wave activity was measured by 'power spectrum analysis' of TeleScan program. Statistic analysis consisted of average, standard deviation, One-way ANOVA and post-hoc Tukey using SPSS 21.0 version. The significance was set at .05. Results : Depression scale results showed that the exercise elderly group were $10.60{\pm}5.36$ points which was the lowest among the three groups. The Normal elderly group was $16.20{\pm}5.59$, and the hospitalized elderly group was $16.70{\pm}6.76$ points. There was no significant difference between the normal elderly group, exercise elderly group and hospitalized elderly group. The hospitalized group showed statistical difference in relative theta power in the area of Fp1, F3, F4, T3, P3 as compared to the normal elderly group and the exercise elderly groups. There was no significant difference between relative beta power and relative gamma power in three groups. Conclusion : Geriatric depressed scale showed no significant difference in each group. This is indicated in the mental problems associated with depression. This indicates a higher level of depression in the hospitalized elderly women, more than in the normal elderly women and exercise elderly women groups.

In this paper, new parameters were developed to estimate the depth of anesthesia during a general anesthesia using EEG. Power spectral density(PSD) analysis was used for these parameters because EEG became slow wave during anesthesia. The new parameters were DTR, ATR, TDR, ADR, BTR and BDR applied to PSD. These parameters were compared with SEF which is conventionally used at clinic and confirmed clinical value. As the results, DTR, ATR, TDR, ADR among parameters were not useful compared with SEF but BTR and BDR is valuable for clinic. 15 patents, at pre-operation BDR the value is $265.36{\pm}25.29$, at induction the value is $129.23{\pm}34.92$, at operation the value is $154.99{\pm}38.34$, at awaked the value is $283.83{\pm}39.80$ and at post-operation the value is $234.80{\pm}23.46$. Also at pre-operation BTR value is $183.38{\pm}13.59$, at induction the value is $104.09{\pm}25.11$, at operation the value is $115.38{\pm}23.42$, at awaked the value is $190.33{\pm}23.31$ and at post-operation the value is $172.38{\pm}19.08$. Trend of BDR and BTR is similar to change of SEF, so two parameters are useful. to estimate the depth of anesthesia.

M ssbauer 분광법을 이용하여 비정질합금 Fe83B9Nb7Cu1의 자기적 성질을 연구하였다. 개선된 Vincze의 방법을 적용하여 각 온도에서 초미세자기장, 이성질체 이동치, 그리고 quadrupole line broadening의 분포함수들을 얻었고 큐리온도는 393K, Hhf(0)는 231kOe로 산출되었다. 환산된 평균 초미세 자기장(reduced average hyperfine field)의 온도 변화는 S=1 자기화 곡선에 비해 급히 감소하는 양상을 보였고 이를 설명하기 위해 Handrich의 분자장 이론에서 교환 상호 작용의 척도인 에 =0.75-0.64(T/Tc)+0.47(T/Tc)2의 온도 의존성을 도입하였다. 평균 초미세 자기장(Hhf(T))은 저온에서 스핀파 여기에 의한 공식 Hhf(T)=Hhf(0)[1-0.44(T/Tc)3/2-0.28(T/Tc)5/2- ]으로 분석하였고, 큐리온도 부근에서는 1.00[1-T/Tc]0.39의 관계를 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 초미세 자기장 분포곡선의 선폭은 13K에서 102kOe (3.29 mm/s)였으며, 오도가 증가함에 따라 감소했다. 큐리온도 이상에서 평균 quadrupole splitting값은 0.43 mm/s였으며 quadrupole 이동치 분포에 의한 선폭 증가는 13K에서 0.1 mm/s, 320K에서는 0.072 mm/s 정도로 초미세 자기장 분포나 quadrupole line broadening에 의한 선폭 증가보다 작았다. 이성질체 이동치의 온도 변화에 Debye 모형을 적용하여 Debye 온도를 D=424K로 산출하였다.

배경: 싱잉볼은 그릇 모양의 타악기로 명상 및 치유 프로그램에 활용되고 있으나, 임상적 효과에 대한 기전이 명확하지 않다. 목적: 본 논문에서는 싱잉볼 소리의 독특한 음향학적인 특성을 개관하고, 싱잉볼의 효과를 유도하는 물리적인 기전에 대해 토의했다. 방법: 문헌을 고찰하여 연구하였다. 결과: 싱잉볼 소리는 인접한 다수의 피치의 소리가 포함되어 있어 맥놀이 현상이 발생한다. 싱잉볼 소리에서 느끼는 강하고 지속적인 소리의 울림은 맥놀이 현상의 결과이다. 싱잉볼 소리의 울림은 싱잉볼 악기 및 연주 방법에 좌우되며, 대체로 명상 상태에서 관찰되는 뇌파(세타파)와 유사한 리듬을 포함하며 명상 뇌파를 활성화하는 동조 현상을 유발한다. 싱잉볼 소리의 임상적 효과는 주로 싱잉볼 소리의 울림의 리듬과 뇌파의 동조 효과와 밀접하게 관련된 것으로 추정된다. 결론: 싱잉볼 소리의 임상적인 효과에 대한 기전을 명확히 이해하기 위해서는 싱잉볼 소리의 울림에 대한 심리 및 생리적인 반응에 대한 체계적인 연구가 필요하다.
