Objectives It is well-known that tobacco smoking is related to various disease entities including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, inflammation, cardiovascular disease, and neoplasms. The prohibition of smoking is important for the protection of these health problems. Regarding leptin, ghrelin, glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1), and nerve growth factor (NGF) levels, correlations with the smoking are suggested but the reports on the effects after smoking cessation are not sufficient. Method The changes of plasma levels of leptin, ghrelin, GLP-1, and NGF levels were analyzed after quitting smoking in Korean adults. Eleven participants succeeding in quitting smoking among 37 male smokers were included in the final analysis. The plasma levels of NGF, leptin, ghrelin, and GLP-1 were measured before and after 8-weeks period of smoking cessation. Results The plasma level of leptin increased after 4 weeks of smoking cessation. In addition, the plasma level of NGF increased after 8 weeks of smoking cessation (p < 0.05). Conclusion Our results suggested that smoking cessation induces increases in leptin and the NGF level after smoking cessation. Many toxic materials including nicotine in the cigarette may be related to these changes of plasma level of leptin and NGF, playing a key role in neurogenesis and synaptic plasticity.

Objective : Optimized voxel based morphometry (VBM) has been increasingly applied to investigate differences in brain morphology between a group of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) patients and control subjects. Optimized VBM permits comparison of gray matter (GM) volume at voxel-level from the entire brain. The purpose of this study was to assess the regional GM volume loss measured by optimized VBM in AD compared to controls Methods : Twenty-three AD patients and 20 cognitively normal elderly control subjects included in this study. To improve the VBM performance, the study specific template and the probability maps were generated from the control subjects. Results : Optimized VBM analysis revealed GM loss, including hippocampus, amygdala, anterior cingulate, posterior cingulate, insula, frontal lobe and middle temporal complex in the AD group as compared to normal control group Conclusion : The VBM results confirmed previous findings of temporal lobe and limbic lobe atrophic changes in AD, and suggest that these abnormalities may be confined to specific sites within that lobe, rather than showing a widespread distribution.

Background/Aims: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) often coexists with co-morbid conditions that significantly affect the prognosis. Although depression frequently coexists with COPD, little about how to screen for depression in COPD patients is known. We report the effectiveness of depression screening in patients with COPD and of the instruments used for this purpose. Methods: We performed a systematic literature review of the domestic (Research Information Sharing Service, KoreaMed, and Kmbase) and international (Medline, Embase, Cochrane library) databases using COPD AND depression AND screening tools as key words. Results: No study directly evaluated the effectiveness of screening for depression in COPD patients. However, depression was present more frequently in patients with COPD. COPD patients with depression were also more likely to be in poor health. A total of eight screening instruments for depression were translated into Korean. All had similar reliabilities and internal consistencies. Conclusions: Screening of COPD patients for depression is necessary because individuals with this condition are more likely to suffer from depression, which has a negative impact on health. The choice of depression screening instruments may need to be based on considerations of simplicity. (Korean J Med 2012;83:468-475)
