Korean style DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) and a dietary education program for sodium reduction were developed. Reduced sodium diets (15 and 30% reductions) were developed from general diets for 3 consecutive weeks from Monday through Saturday. Subjects (19 total) were classified into two groups according to dietary education. Experimental period was from June 24 to July 23, 2012. Total sum of adaptation scores for low sodium diets significantly increased in the group that underwent dietary education compared to that without (p<0.05). After the experiment, both groups showed significantly increased values in terms of food group balance, sodium-related nutrition knowledge, attitude, and practice by paired t-test. Especially, group that underwent dietary education showed significantly higher values for attitudes by ANCOVA pre-test as a variation (p<0.01). For the results of the nutrient intake survey, group that underwent dietary education showed significantly increased values for dietary fiber (p<0.01), vitamin A (p<0.001), vitamin K (p<0.001), vitamin C (p<0.01), Folic acid (p<0.001), vitamin B12 (p<0.01), calcium (p<0.01), iron (p<0.05), and zinc (p<0.05) and significantly decreased values for sodium (p<0.05) and chloride (p<0.005). Subjects adapted to reduced sodium diets showed apparent improvements in sodium-related knowledge, attitude, practice and intake of nutrient, and these improvements were even higher in the group that underwent dietary education compared to that without. Thus, adaptation to low sodium diet combined with dietary education can improve dietary habits.

본 연구는 여자대학생을 대상으로 장기간의 자율적 저염식 실시가 짠 맛에 대한 인지와 기호에 영향을 미쳐 나트륨 섭취나 혈압에 변화를 가져 올 수 있는지를 조사하고자 실시되었다. 14명의 실험군 대상자들은 나트륨 관련 영양교육과 정보를 제공받아 저염식을 하도록 지시 받았고 10명의 대상자는 평상시의 식생활을 유지하도록 하였다. 짠 맛의 인지와 기호는 9점 척도의 관능검사로 평가하였고 뇨 나트륨 배설량과 최적 염미 나트륨 정량 분석하였으며 혈압을 측정하였다. 주요 연구 결과는 아래와 같다. 1) 연구 시작시의 실험군과 대조군은 나트륨 관련 식행동, 신체 계측치, 혈압, 24시간 회상법에 의한 나트륨 섭취량, 6단계의 염분용액에 대한 짠 맛 인지나 기호에서 차이가 없었다. 2) 6개월의 저염식 실시 후 실험군 대상자들은 0.5% 이하 염분 용액에서 짠 맛 인지도가 높아졌고 대조군은 낮아져 저염식 실시로 낮은 농도의 염분에 적응한 듯하나 연구시작과 종료시의 paired t-test에서 통계적 유의성은 없었다. 기호도는 시작 시에는 두 군 모두 0.5% 염분 용액을 가장 선호했고 연구 종료시 대조군은 0.75%와 0.5% 염분 용액에 비슷한 기호도를 보인 반면 실험군은 0.5%, 그 다음으로 0.3% 용액에 높은 기호도를 보였으나 그 변화가 유의적 수준은 아니었다. 3) 최적 염미 나트륨 농도는 실험군에서 105.6 mmol에서 저염식 적응 후 80.7 mmol로 유의적 (p = 0.015) 감소를 보였고 대조군은 변화가 없었다. 뇨 나트륨 배설량은 대조군은 연구 시작과 종료시 차이가 없었고 실험군은 연구 종료시 1,398 mg에서 906 mg으로 유의적 감소를 하였다. 4) 수축기 혈압은 실험군 대상자에서 111 mmHg에서 106 mmHg로 유의적으로 감소하였고 이완기 혈압은 대조군, 실험군 모두에서 유의적으로 감소하였다. 혈압과 뇨 나트륨 배설량은 상관관계를 나타내지 않았다. 5) 최적 염미 나트륨 농도와 뇨 나트륨 배설량은 양의 상관관계 (r = 0.418)을 보여 짠맛에 대한 기호가 나트륨 섭취량에 영향을 미친 것으로 보인다. 최적 염미 나트륨 농도와 뇨 나트륨 배설량은 0.5% 이하의 낮은 염분 용액에 대한 짠 맛의 인지와는 음의 상관관계 (r = -0.338~-0.399)를 보여 저염식을 하는 대상자는 낮은 염도에도 잘 반응함을 보여 주었다. 본 연구의 대상자들은 6개월 간의 실험 경과 후 최적 염미도와 뇨 중 나트륨 배설량에서는 대조군과 실험군의 차이가 분명하였고 관능검사 결과는 0.5% 이하의 저염 농도에 실험군 대상자들이 짠 맛 인지와 기호도가 유의적이지는 않으나 향상하였다. 혈압은 수축기 혈압이 실험군에서만 유의적으로 감소하여 전반적으로 6개월 간의 저염식 적응이 유효한 듯하다. 그러나 본 연구결과만으로는 저염식에 적응해 가는 변화과정을 알 수 없고 분석 자료의 표준편차로 보아 개인차 커 일부 비적응자가 있었음을 알 수 있다. 앞으로 저염 적응 기간 중 개인별 반응과 함께 여러 시점에서의 관찰이 필요하다고 본다.

The present study was conducted to examine the effect of an increased level of dietary sodium on calcium excretion in 8 health young adult Korean women on a controlled diet. After adaptation period of 2 days, each subject received 2811.8$\pm$68.1 mgNa(day during the initial period of 5 days (low sodium period) and 6417.1$\pm$248.6mgNa(day during the following period of 5 days (high sodium period). Calcium intake was 593.7$\pm$15.7 mg Ca/day during the low sodium period of 596.1$\pm$25.1 Ca/day duing the high sodium period. When the low sodium period is compared with the high soidum period, the results were as following. 1) Mean urinary sodium excretion was significantly higher during the high sodium period (5760.1$\pm$156.5mg0 than during the low sodium period (2272.2$\pm$108.6mg)(P<0.001). Fecal sodium excretion of the high sodium period was also significantly higher than that of the low sodium period(P<0.001). Mean value of sodium balance during the high sodium period was higher than that of the low sodium period . However, the difference was not significant. 2) Mean urinary calcium excretion was significantly higher during the high sodium period than during the low sodium period ; mean value of the low sodium period was 124.7$\pm$11.3mg and that of the high sodium period was 202.6$\pm$17.2mg)P<0.001). Fecal calcium excretion was higher during the high sodium period (284.9$\pm$31.0mg) than during the low sodium period (253.9$\pm$15.3mg0, but there was no significance. Mean value of calcium balance during the high sodium period was significantly lower than that of the low sodium period(P<0.001). The above results show that high sodium intake increases calcium excretion as well as sodium excretion.

Cyclosporine A(CsA) is a widely used immunosuppressant for transplant patients and is also used for the treatment of a wide variety of systemic diseases with immunologic disorders. However, its use is frequently limited because of complications such as nephrotoxicity or gingival hyperplasia. Although several hypotheses have been postulated for CsA-induced gingival hyperplasia, i.e. various cytokine effects of inflammatory cells, existence of plaque or CsA itself, but its pathogenesis is still unclear. For experimental chronic CsA toxicity, salt depletion has been shown to increased susceptibility of rodents to the effects of CsA, and this maneuver facilitates production of arteriolopathy and interstitial fibrosis in kidney that mimic the changes found in human. The purpose of this study was to evaluate pathogenesis of CsA-induced gingival hyperplasia by comparing changes between CsA administration groups of normal standard diet and those of low salt diet group. Specific pathogen-free, 20 to 25 days old(120 to 150 g), male Fisher-344 rats(KIST, Korea), 120 to 150g of body weight, were assigned to four groups of six animals each after one week of adaptation period for powder food. Group 1 received olive oil($300{\mu}l/g\;of\;diet$) with normal standard diet(0.4% of sodium)(NSD). Group 2 received CsA(Cypol-N, Jonggundang, Korea; $300{\mu}g/g\;of\;diet$) with normal standard diet(NSD+CsA). Group 3 received same amount of olive oil with low salt diet(0.05 % of sodium, Teklad Premier, U.S.A.)(LSD). Group 4 received same dose of CsA with low salt diet(LSD+CsA). Rats were pair fed and were sacrificed after six weeks. Renal histologic lesions associated with CsA, consisted of cortical interstitial fibrosis, tubular atrophy and hyalinization of arterioles and the impairment of renal function including increase of serum creatinine and decrease of glomerular filtration rate was more severe in low salt diet group. These were proved as the results of activated of renin-angiotensin system in the kidney by low salt condition. Meanwhile the degree of gingival hyperplasia at incisor and molar tooth was less severe in low salt diet group compared with normal sodium diet group. Hyperplastic gingiva showed mild epithelial hyperplasia and expanded underlyng stroma which consisted of matrix increasement, capillary proliferation and dilatation. While the number and the activation of fibroblasts were increased, inflammatory cells were rare in the stroma. The immunohistochemistry for TGF-${\beta}_1$ in the kidney and gingiva revealed stronger positive in LSD+CsA in kidney but in gingiva of NSD+CsA. These results suggested followings; Gingival hyperplasia can be developed without inflammatory cells infiltration and seemed not induced by CsA by itself. The major role for gingival hyperplasia by CsA would be the secondary effect of TGF-${\beta}$, which maybe upregulated by CsA administration. Low salt diet can attenuate this hyperplasia perhaps by decreasing the activation of $TGF-{\beta}$.

This study was performed to investigate the effects of dietary protein content on recovery of laparotomized rats in terms of urinary epinephrine and norepinephrine plasma epinephrine and norepinephrine, . Fortyeigh male Sprague Dawley rats average-weighing 160g were divided into two diet groups ; LPD(10% low protein diet) group HPD(25% high protein diet) group After 3 days of adaptation period rats were given experimental diet for 14 days. Experimental period consists of 7-days pre-trauma and 7-days post-trauma period. Rats were laparotomized by 4cm abdominal incision under sodium pentobarbital anesthesia. During 7-days before and after the surgery urine and plasma were collected for the analysis of epinephrine and norepine-phrine. The results are as follows: 1) After laparotomy urinary epinephrine level was not increased in two diet groups. Urinary epinephrine concentration of rats in LPD group was considerably increased in post-trauma day 3 and thereafter gradually reduced. By post-trauma day 4 however urinary epinephrine concentration of rats in HPD groups was recovered to pre-trauma level 2) Urinary norepinephrine concentration of rats in LPD group was significantly increased after trauma(p<0.01) and the difference between LPD and HPD in post-trauma average norepinephrine concentration was not significant. 3) Post-traum average plasma epinephrine concentration was higher but not significant than that of pre-truma average in both groups [LPD(19.88ng/ml vs 20.93ng/ml) HPD(17.20ng/ml vs 19.37ng/ml)] 4) Plasma norepinephrine concentration of rats in LPD group was significantly increased in post-trauma period(p<0.01) In HPD group however post-trauma average plasma norepi-nephrine concentration was significantly lower than pre-trauma average. Thus the results suggest that norepinehrine concentration was affected by trauma and rats in HPD group excreted less amount of norepinephrine than rats in LPD group.

The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of ambient temperatures on carcass characteristics of lambs fed concentrate diets with or without $NaHCO_3$ supplementation. A slaughter study was carried on 12 male Black Belly Barbados lambs randomly drawn from a growth trial (35 weeks). The lambs were divided into four equal groups and allotted in a $2{\times}2$ factorial design. The lambs were allotted at random to two dietary treatments of a basal diet (35:65 roughage:concentrate) or basal diet supplemented with 4% $NaHCO_3$ at different ambient temperatures ($20^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$) in an environment controlled chamber for 10 days. Lambs were slaughtered for carcass evaluation at about 262 days of age (245 days of growth trial, 7 days adaptation and 10 days of experimental period). Ambient temperature had significant (p<0.05, p<0.05, p<0.01, and p<0.001) effects on meat color from the ribeye area (REA), fat, leg and longissimus dorsi muscles with higher values recorded for lambs in the lower temperature group than those from the higher ambient temperature group. Significant differences (p<0.05) in shear force value ($kg/cm^2$) recorded on the leg muscles showed higher values (5.32 vs 4.16) in lambs under the lower ambient temperature group compared to the other group. Dietary treatments had significant (p<0.01, p<0.01, and p<0.05) effects on meat color from the REA, fat, and REA fat depth ($cm^2$) with higher values recorded for lambs in the $NaHCO_3$ supplementation group than the non supplemented group. Similarly, dietary treatments had significant differences (p<0.05) in shear force value ($kg/cm^2$) of the leg muscles with the $NaHCO_3$ groups recording higher (5.30 vs 4.60) values than those from the other group. Neither ambient temperature nor dietary treatments had any significant (p>0.05) effects on pH, and water holding capacity on both muscles. These results indicated that $NaHCO_3$ supplementation at low ambient temperatures had caused an increase in carcass characteristics leading to significant effect on meat quality.
