Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) will be the third leading cause of death worldwide by 2030. One of its components, emphysema, has been defined as a lung disease that irreversibly damages the lungs’ alveoli. Treatment is currently unavailable for emphysema symptoms and complete cure of the disease. Hyaluronan (HA) and proteoglycan link protein 1 (HAPLN1), an HA-binding protein linking HA in the extracellular matrix to stabilize the proteoglycan structure, forms a bulky hydrogel-like aggregate. Studies on the biological role of the full-length HAPLN1, a simple structure-stabilizing protein, are limited. Here, we demonstrated for the first time that treating human alveolar epithelial type 2 cells with recombinant human HAPLN1 (rhHAPLN1) increased TGF-β receptor 1 (TGF-β RI) protein levels, but not TGF-β RII, in a CD44-dependent manner with concurrent enhancement of the phosphorylated Smad3 (p-Smad3), but not p-Smad2, upon TGF-β1 stimulation. Furthermore, rhHAPLN1 significantly increased sirtuins levels (i.e., SIRT1/2/6) without TGF-β1 and inhibited acetylated p300 levels that were increased by TGF-β1. rhHAPLN1 is crucial in regulating cellular senescence, including p53, p21, and p16, and inflammation markers such as p-NF-κB and Nrf2. Both senile emphysema mouse model induced via intraperitoneal rhHAPLN1 injections and porcine pancreatic elastase (PPE)-induced COPD mouse model generated via rhHAPLN1-containing aerosols inhalations showed a significantly potent efficacy in reducing alveolar spaces enlargement. Preclinical trials are underway to investigate the effects of inhaled rhHAPLN1-containing aerosols on several COPD animal models.

지현진,정윤하,이철원 한국스포츠리서치 2004 한국 스포츠 리서치 Vol.15 No.1

The purpose of the present study was to provide a view of the lives of Korean female seniors, who visit their nearby No-In-Jung almost everyday. Especially, it was to explore why they failed to get away from No-In-Jung and make their life more dynamic. Seven daily visitors of two No-In-Jungs in Seoul were closely observed and individually interviewed. The facility and the environment composing the No-In-Jungs were also investigated. Results revealed six key factors: isolation from family, living as korean women, living as simple workers, weakened body and mind, economic dependence, and isolated from social welfare program. Insights and suggestions were also provided.

The purpose of this research is to evaluate indoor office environment using the concentrations of nicotine, 3-enthenyl-pyridine(3-EP), and respirable suspended particulate(RSP), which are indicators for environmental tobacco smoke(ETS) and the correlations between indicators and environmental conditions(smoking density, smoking index). The mean air charge per hour (ACH) in smoking rooms was 10.4 and most of the smoking rooms showed non-compliance withe ASHRAE standard value except only one smoking rooms. The concentrations of RSP, 3-EP, nicotine showed log=normal distributions, and became different statistically depending on smoking condition(p〈0.01). The geometric mean concentration of RSP in smoking room was 441.7 ug/㎡ that is far exceeded environmental standard(150 ug/㎡). This implies that fine particulate in smoking room should be carefully controlled considering smoking density and ventilation fate. The mean concentrations of nicotine and 3-EP were 93.4 ug/㎥, respectively. The correlation coefficients between RSP and SI, 3-EP and SI, and Nicotine and SI were 0.67, 0.84 and 0.74, respectively. The correlation coefficient between nicotine and 3-EP, nicotine and RSP, and RSP and 3-EP were 0.76,0.78 and 0.57 respectively.

목적 : 본 연구는 수근관 증후군의 발생위험이 높은 작업형태에 종사하는 상지 단순반복작업근로자로서 육류 및 어류 가공 사업장과 목재소 근로자에서 근전도검사를 이용하여 수근관 증후군의 유병률을 조사하고자 하였다. 방법 : 상지 단순반복작업근로자로서 육류 및 어류 가공 사업장 근로자 69명과 목재소 근로자 17명을 실험군으로, 관리직, 경리, 경비등 상지의 단순반복작업이 없는 근로자 28명을 대조군으로 선정하여, 작업적 및 병력조사, 이학적 검사와 근전도검사를 통해 수근관 증후군의 유병률을 조사하였다. 결과 : 수근관 증후군의 유병률은 육류 및 어류 가공 사업장과 목재소에서 각각 26.09 % (18명)와 29.41 %(5명)로 조사되었으며, 육류 및 어류가공사업장과 목재소 근로자를 '7년 이상과 미만의 작업기간'으로 층화하여 비교한 결과 '상지부위의 통증 호소 유무', 'Visual Analogue Scale(VAS: 총 10점) 4점 이상 여부', 'Tinel teat 양성 유무', 'Phalen test 양성 유무'는 모두 단기 작업근로자군에서 양성의 빈도가 증가되었고 '수근관 증후군 유무'는 장기작업근로자군에서 양성의 빈도가 증가되었다. 결론 : 육류 및 어류 가공 사업장과 목재소의 수근관 증후군 유병률은 각각 26.09 %와 29.41 %로 육류 및 어류 가공 사업장과 목재소는 1996년 OSHA가 지정한 바와 같이 위험한 작업요인이 있는 작업장으로 분류하여 관리되어야 할 것으로 생각된다. Objectives : This study was carried out to survey on the prevalence of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome(CTS) in high risk jobs(meat and fish processing plant and wood plant), by application of Nerve Conduction Study(NCS), a confirmatory diagnostic method. Methods : Experimental group was 69 workers sampled from meat and fish processing plants and 17 workers sampled from wood plants, who were simple, repetitive workers using upper extremities and control group was 28 workers sampled from managers, secretaries and keepers. All employees were examined through work history, physical examination and NCS. Results : 18 workers(26.09%) in meat and fish processing plants, and 5 workers(29.41%) in wood plants had compatible findings to NIOSH diagnostic criteria for CTS. The experimental group had more symptoms (complaint of upper extremities, Visual Analogue Scale ≥4(VAS: total 10 point)), signs(Tinel and Phalen test) and prevalence of CTS than control group(p<0.05). The prevalence of symptoms and signs were higher in short term workers(<7 years), but the prevalence of CTS was higher in long term workers(≥7 years). Conclusions : The prevalence of CTS in meat and fish processing plant and wood plant were 26.09% and 29.41% respectively. Authors propose that meat and fish processing and wood plants should be managed as a risk job category which were designated by OSHA in 1996

연구목적 : 외환위기 이후에 급증한 노숙자 문제는 경제적인 상황의 호전에도 불구하고 만성화하는 경향을 보이고 있다. 쉼터의 노숙자를 대상으로 정신질환의 유병율과 삶의 질에 대한 조사를 시행하였다. 방 법 : 2000년 3월에 서울의 대표적인 쉼터에 거주하는 노숙자220명을 대상으로 인구학적 자료에 대한 설문조사를 한 뒤 Structured Clinical for DSM-Ⅳ(SCID-I)을 이용하여 AxisⅠ의 주요 정신질환을 진단하였다. 또 SmithKline Beecham Quality of Life Scale(SBQOL)를 사용하여 삶의 질정도를 평가하였다. 결 과 : DSM-Ⅳ AxisⅠ의 정신질환 중 기분장애, 정신병적 장애, 물질 사용 장애에 대한 진단 평가 결과 상기정신질환의 전체 평생 유병율은 73.6%, 현재 유병율은 59.1%이었다. 알코올 의존과 남용의 평생 유병율은 59.5%로 가장 높았고, 기분장애와 장애가 각각 39.5%, 3.6%이었다. 삶의 질은 노숙의 기간이나 실직 기간과 유의한 관계가 없었고, 자신이 지각한 건강상태, 자살과거력, 우울장애 유무와 통계적으로 유의하게 상관관계가 있었다(p<0.01). 결 론 : 노숙자에서 정신질환 중 알코올 장애의 유병율이 가장 높았으며, 우울장애가 있는 경우에 삶의 질이 저하되는 것으로 나타났다. Objectives : Homeless people surged after financial crisis tend to be chronic despite late economic recovery. So we tried to estimate prevalence of mental illness and quality of life of the homeless population living in shelter. Method : The study subjects were 220 homeless peoples who stayed at a shelter in Seoul around March 2000. Questionnaires on sociodemographic data were administered to the subjects, and then diagnoses of major DSM-Ⅳ Axis I mental disorders were made using Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-Ⅳ Axis I Disorders(SCID). And quality of life(QOL) was evaluated by SmithKline Beecham Quality of Life(SBQOL). Results : The lifetime prevalence of major DSM-Ⅳ mental disorders(mood disorders, psychotic disorder, and substance use disorder) of 220 homeless people was 73.6%, and current prevalence was 59.1%. The lifetime prevalence of alcohol dependence and abuse was highest, 59.5% and those of mood disorder and psychotic disorder were 39.5%, 3.6% respectively. Quality of life was not significantly correlated with duration of homelessness and unemploy-ment but marital status, self perceive health status, suicidal attempt history were significant factors. The quality of life in the people with mood disorders were estimated to be lower than those with any other diseases(p<0.01). Conclusion : Alcoholism was the most prevalent mental disorder in homeless people and mood disorder was negatively related to the quality of life scale.

권세훈,김형호,강지인,하재하,한경택,이재록,김동민,권용은,윤성호,이승일 朝鮮大學校 附設 醫學硏究所 2007 The Medical Journal of Chosun University Vol.32 No.1

Scrub typhus is a potentially fatal infectious disease caused by the organism Orientia tsutsugamushi. Clinical manifestations are fever, skin rash, eschar and varying degree of respiratory distress. The pleural effusion in scrub typhus is rare and secondary to the destruction of vascular endothelium. Because the respiratory symptoms are generally mild and the pleural effusion in scmb typhus is rare than in interstitial pneumonia, there are few comments about the characteristics of scmb typhus with pleural effusion. So we made the comparative study of scmb typhus patients between with pleural effusion and without pleural effusion. 연구배경 치명적일 수 있는 감염질환 중 하나인 쯔쯔가무시중(Scrub typhus)에서 드문 흉막삼출을 동반한 환자에 대한 고찰은 다른 문헌에서도 자주 언급되지 않았다. 따라서 본 저자들은 흉막삼출이 있는 경우와 없는 경우에 따른 쯔쯔가무시중 환자들을 비교하고자 하였다. 방법 2003년에서 2006년까지 조선대학교 병원 내과에 입원중인 환자 중 쯔쯔가무시중 진단을 받은 총 109명의 환자를 대상으로 하여 흉부 X선 검사 및 혈청학적 검사(CPK, LDH, ESR, CRP, AST, ALT, ADA), 혈액학적 검사(WBC, PLT) 및 백분율 검사등을 실시하였다. 결과 흉막삼출이 있는 환자들의 경우 흉막 삼출이 없는 환자들에 비해 ESR 수치가 통계학적으로 의의있게 높았다(p-vaule < 0.05). 결론 흉막삼출 유무에 따른 쯔쯔가무시중 환자간의 비교에 있어 ESR 수치가 통계학적인 의의를 가졌다.

A Case of Herpes Zoster Granulomatous Dermatitis: Report of Wolf’s Isotopic Response

( Ji Ha Yoon ),( Ye Ji Jang ),( Eun Joo Park ),( Kwang Joong Kim ),( Kwang Ho Kim ) 대한피부과학회 2021 Annals of Dermatology Vol.33 No.2

Wolf’s isotopic response refers to the occurrence of a novel skin disease at the site of a preceding treated or untreated skin disease. Although the most common preceding skin disease was found to be herpes zoster (HZ), HZ-related dermatological phenomena are not well known in the literature. We report a case of HZ granulomatous dermatitis in a 77-year-old female with a previous history of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, and HZ. She presented with a 3-month history of a pruritic skin lesion on her right thigh. The location of the lesion was consistent with a previous HZ site. Histopathological examination revealed lympho- histiocytic infiltration in the superficial dermis, forming a granulomatous structure. Based on clinical and histopathological findings, we made a diagnosis of granulomatous dermatitis at a previous HZ site. We assumed that the lesion arose from an isotopic response of Wolf. The patient was treated with topical steroids for 3 months and showed clearance of the lesion and symptom. We suggest that treatment should be based on the individual disease, which in our case was topical steroid. (Ann Dermatol 33(2) 186∼189, 2021)

Background: Acai is well-known for its anti-oxidative action. To evaluate protective effects of acai powder (AP) intake on azoxymethane (AOM)/dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colon tumors in an experimental mice model. Methods: Six groups of 5-week-old ICR mice were used. Carcinogen groups; 24 micewere injected intraperitoneally with 10mg/kg of AOM once and orally administered with 2.5% of DSS for 7 days from a week after the injection. Bothe control and AOM-treated groups were divided in to three groups, respectively (G1-G6); fed with standard diet, a diet containing 2.5% or 5.0% of AP for the rest of 14 weeks after the administration of DSS. Sixteen weeks after AOM injection, all groups were sacrificedfor histopathology analysis and the colon tumor assay. Key molecules of infi ammation and proliferation pathway, such as IL-1ß, IL-6, TNF-a, cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), myeloperoxidase (MPO) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) were assessed frommice colonic mucosa. Results: Eight (100%), 6 (75%) and 4 (50%) mice in each AOM-treated group (G4-G6) developed cancers (P trend = 0.024). Among AOM-treated mice, signifi cant reduction in tumor multiplicity and tumor size were observed in the both groups fed with AP compared to the standard diet group (multiplicity: 10.1 ± 2.3 vs. 2.8 ± 0.9 and 2.6 ± 0.8 P = 0.025, P = 0.023; size: 5.8 ± 0.8 vs. 2.5 ± 0.8 and 2.4 ± 1.0, P = 0.025, P = 0.016). Also, significant reduction in COX-2 expression in the AOM-treated group with AP and inhibition of IL-1ß, IL-6, TNF-a, MPO and PCNA expressions in the AOM-treated groups with AP in a dose-dependent manner (all P < 0.05). Conclusions: Acai reduced the incidence, multiplicity and size of AOM/DSS-inducedtumor in mice. Acai may have a potential to prevent colon carcinogenesis via anti-in- fi ammatory and anti-proliferative properties.
