<P>In the present study, we investigated neuronal death/damage in the gerbil hippocampal CA1 region (CA1) and compared changes in some trophic factors, such as brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), in the CA1 between the adult and young gerbils after 5 min of transient cerebral ischemia. Most of pyramidal neurons (89%) were damaged 4 days after ischemia-reperfusion (I-R) in the adult; however, in the young, about 59% of pyramidal neurons were damaged 7 days after I-R. The immunoreactivity and levels of BDNF and VEGF, not GDNF, in the CA1 of the normal young were lower than those in the normal adult. Four days after I-R in the adult group, the immunoreactivity and levels of BDNF and VEGF were distinctively decreased, and the immunoreactivity and level of GDNF were increased. However, in the young group, all of their immunoreactivities and levels were much higher than those in the normal young group. From 7 days after I-R, all the immunoreactivities and levels were apparently decreased compared to those of the normal adult and young. In brief, we confirmed our recent finding: more delayed and less neuronal death occurred in the young following I-R, and we newly found that the immunoreactivities of trophic factors, such as BDNF, GDNF, and VEGF, in the stratum pyramidale of the CA1 in the young gerbil were much higher than those in the adult gerbil 4 days after transient cerebral ischemia.</P>

Proceedings of International Symposium on East-West Medicine, Seoul. 244-254, 1999.-Obesity can be defined as a metabolic disease due to an increased state of fat tissues caused by an imbalance of calorie intake and use. Recently, in Korea by improvement and westernization of food intake, along with decrease in exercise activities, the prevalence of obesity has increased greatly. Our objectives were to study stability and effects of decrease in body fat by administering red ginseng compound preparation (known to have body fat decreasing effects in laboratory animals) to obesity patients on low calorie diets. Changes in weight and body fat were measured while carrying out calorie-restricted diets on patients for 4 weeks, then administering red ginseng compound preparation for another 4 weeks. The patients were 20 people whose BMI were 25kg/㎡ or over and whose percent body fat was also 30% or over when tested by bioelectrical conductivity. 1. Changes in weight were from 70.04kg(base line) to 67.43kg(after taking red ginseng compound preparation). 2. In similar sense, BMI decreased from 27.12kg/㎡(base line) to 26.56kg/㎡(after dieting), and further to 26.01kg/㎡ (after taking red ginseng compound preparation). The BMI seemed to decrease significantly compared to the baseline after the use of red ginseng compound. 3. Waist hip ratio was changed from 0.8858(base line) to 0.8728, but it was statistically insignificant. 4. The percent body fat was 35,16%(base line), 33.87%(after dieting), and 31.68%(after taking red ginseng compound preparation). 5. Complete blood cell count and blood chemisrty remained unaffected by the administration. 6. In concern to endocrinologic studies, T3 decreased from 118.7 to 98.2ng/dL, and T4 increased from 8.8 to 9.2㎕/ dL. Epinephrine showed a tendency to decreased from 0.27 to 0.25 ng/mL, and norepinephrine increased from 0.39 to 0.44ng/mL. 7. Leptin was not changed. 8. Some patients complained adverse effects; constipation(5 patients, may be due to diet therapy), fatigue (2 patients), pruritus(2 patients), flushing(s patients), dizziness(3 patients) and epigastric discomfort(2 patients). However their symptoms were mild, so medication did not stopped. In conclusion, loss of weight without significant side effects was observed during low calorie diet and red ginseng compound preparation administration. This is thought to be in relation to sympathetic nerve system rather than adrenal gland. Also, further long0term studies should be required, since the observed results were based on short-term changes in weight.

N/A Clinical studies on patients with duodenal ulcer who visited endoscopy room of Kyungpook National University Hospital since 1976 were performed. Among these patients, we compared the number of patients with gastric or duodenal ulcer yearly, and some aspects of difference between 57 cases of old age(above 60 years) and 129 cases of young age(under 30 years) patients with duodenal ulcer. The results obtained were as follows. 1) In examined cases, number of patients with duodenal ulcer was progressively increased year by year and number of gastric ulcer was more prevalent than that of duodenal ulcer unti11979 when the ratio of gastric and duodenal ulcer became nearly same, and thereafter duodenal ulcer cases were begun more predominant about 2 times that of gastric ulcer in 1981 2) Comparing the sex distribution of old and young age group, male was predominant about 12 times of female cases in young age group and about 2.5 times in old. 3) Overall complications including bleeding, perforation, obstruction and others were seen in 63. 2% of old age group and in 48.1% of young. 4) In 8 weeks follow up cases that was possible although it was least in number, 8 cases were improved or healed in old age group but 5 cases out of 18 cases in young revealed no improvement by ordinary regimen.

목적: 버찌씨 수술은 복압성 요실금 수술에 효과적인 수술로 여겨져 왔다. 요실금의 원인이 내인성 요도 괄약근의 결손소견 없이 요도의 과운동성으로 인한 경우 버찌씨 수술이 일반적으로 추천되어진다. 본 연구에서는 복강경 버찌씨 수술에서 최씨 훅의 유용성에 대해 알아보고자 하였다. 연구방법: 2000년 10월부터 2005년 3월까지 본원에서 복강경 버찌씨 수술을 시행받은 47명의 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 27명은 고전적 복강경 버찌씨 수술을 시행하였고 20명은 내골반 근막을 Cooper 인대를 부착하는데 유용한 본원에서 고안한 최씨 훅을 이용하여 복강경 버찌씨 수술을 시행하였다. 결과: 고전적 복강경 버찌씨 수술을 시행한 군과 최씨 훅을 이용한 복강경 버찌씨 수술을 시행한 군의 평균 나이, 분만력, 폐경률, BMI는 두 군간에 통계학적으로 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다 (p>0.05). 수술 시간은 고전적 복강경 버찌씨 수술은 90.52±15.32분, 최씨 훅을 이용한 복강경 버찌씨 수술은 38.50±10.14분으로 최씨 훅을 이용한 경우 수술시간이 통계적으로 유의하게 짧았다 (p<0.05). 두 군간에 재발률 및 합병증 발생은 통계적 유의성을 보이지 않았다 (p>0.05). 결론: 본 연구에서 본원에서 고안한 최씨 훅을 이용하여 복강경 버찌씨 수술을 시행한 결과 수술 시간을 단축시킬 수 있었으며 수술 효과는 기존 방법과 동일하게 관찰되었다. 이에 최씨 훅은 복강경 버찌씨 수술에서 사용할 때 집도자의 봉합 과정을 단순화시켜 수술 시간을 단축시키므로 복강경 버찌씨 수술에 용이한 기구이다. Objective: Burch operation has been effective method for the treatment of stress incontinence. Burch operation is a well-accepted procedure for treating stress urinary incontinence secondary to urethral hypermobility without intrinsic sphincter deficiency and is the reference standard with which other procedures are compared. This study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the Choi`s hook in laparoscopic Burch operation. Methods: This study included 47 patients who had undergone laparoscopic Burch operation from October 2000 through March 2005. Of these 47 patients, 27 patients underwent traditional laparoscopic Burch operation (Group 1) and 20 patients underwent laparoscopic Burch operation with Choi`s Hook on anchoring the endopelvic fascia to the Cooper`s ligament (Group 2). Results: The mean age of patients of Group 1 was 55.6±9.37 years of age and that of Group 2 was 56.0±5.93 years of age. There is no difference in the mean age of patients (P>0.05). The mean operating time was 90.5±15.32 minutes for Group 1 and 38.5±10.14 minute for Group 2. The mean operating time was shorter in Group 2 than Group 1 (P<0.05). There was no difference in recurrence rate and complication rate between Group 1 and Group 2 (P>0.05). Conclusion: We performed laparoscopic Burch operation with the Choi`s Hook on anchoring the endopelvic fascia to the Cooper`s ligament. When we compared traditional laparoscopic Burch operation with laparoscopic Burch operation with Choi`s Hook, we could shorten the operation time using the Choi`s Hook.

시청률 제고를 위한 KBS의 2014 월드컵 중계방송 전략에 대한 연구

최준서(Choi, Joon-Seo),배재성(Bae, Jay-Song),강영희(Kang, Young-Hee) 한국체육과학회 2015 한국체육과학회지 Vol.24 No.6

The purpose of this study is to analyse the strategy of KBS World Cup Broadcasting in 2014 pertaining to its commentator and sportscaster in leading its broadcasting to the best program with the highest audience ratings. It is also assessed as to how KBS World Cup commentator and sportscaster was selected and why they could have a magnetism to successfully attract the TV viewers In the run up to the 2014 World Cup, KBS have employed a new commentator with expertise and experience as former South Korean football international and choose a relatively young sportscaster who could fit in well with the commentator. This strategy carried forward by KBS struck a chord with the TV viewers: Young-Pyo Lee, the KBS commentator was praised for his expertise and ability to predict the outcomes of important World Cup matches, a style that was in stark contrast with more frivolous and entertaining broadcasting of MBC. Also KBS could put SBS with the established commentator into the shade by virtue of Lee’s exceptional capabilities in analysing World Cup games. It is safe to say that the success of KBS World Cup broadcasting greatly relied on the ability of its commentator as a football analyst. It is a reassurance that the expertise of commentator is the most important factors in dictating ratings of the World Cup broadcasting.

In the method of obesity treatment, Dietary method, Exercise method, Behavior method, and Drug method, Dietary method is the most important control method of obesity. The aim of this study is that evaluate the weight reduction effect of the specific low calorie diet products (KSD I and 2) in obese women. Twenty five women who were volunteer participated in this study. They have no heart diseases and metabolic diseases. we classified two groups : obese group and standard group. Anthropometric indices were measured in all subject for four times. Venous blood sample were taken to determine the lipid profiles, glucose level, and liver function test. In obese group, body weight were reduced 2.85±1.46kg, but showed statistically non-signicicant. Body mass index were gradually reduced, 1.09±0.93kg/m^2(p<0.05).In blood analyses, total cholesterol were reduced 10.61 ±33.4mg/dℓ ( p<0.05). KSD 2 significantly inhibited maltase, sucrase and α-glucosidase from rat intestine, and porcine pancreatic lipase, although KSD I inhibited only the sucrase.

For more effective intraperitoneal chemotherapy, the authers made 5-fluorouracil-polyglycolic acid composite disks(FU-PGA disks) with 5-fluorouracil and polyglycolic acid, a biodegradable polymer. We inserted the FU-PGA disk into the peritoneal cavites of Sprague-Dawley male rats, the control and three experimental groups; one FU-PGA disk insert group(300mg/kg), two FU-PGA disk insert group(600mg/kg), and three FU-PGA disk insert group(900mg/kg). The control group received a similar number of PGA disk inserts. A pharmacokinetic study was performed to measure the 5-fluorouracil concentration in the peritoneal fluid, blood, and tissues(liver, kidney and heart) at 24 hours, 72hours and 168 hours after insertion of the FU-PGA disk. Light and electron microscopic studies were done. The results were as follows: 1) The number of white blood cells and platelets decreased after FU-PGA insertion. The degree was proportional to the duration and amounts inserted. The change in the number of red blood cells varied slightly. 2) Light microscopically, slight changes were noted at 168 hours in the 3 disk insert group (900mg/kg). Mild fatty change and hepatocyte degeneration around the central veins of the liver were noted, with vacuolar degeneration in the proximal convoluted tubules of the kidney. 3) Electron microscopically,the liver showed focal increases of lipid droplets in the hepatocytes, and irregular nuclear membrane with focal nucleolar segregation of the fibrillar and granular elements. Also the double membranous structure of the hepatocytes and Kupffer cells was widened with bleb formation. The kidney showed wide separation of the nuclear double membrane in the proximal convoluted tubular cells and mesangial cells, with vacuolation and myelin figure formation in the mitochondria of the proximal convoluted tubular cells, at 72 hours and 168 hours in the 2 to 3 FU-PGA insert groups. The heart showed focal loss of cristae,vacuolation and myelin figure formation in the mitochondria of the 2 to 3 FU-PGA insert groups. In conclusion, despite the large amont of FU-PGA inserted, the histopathological changes in the liver, kidney and heart were slight, and consonant with the very low amount of 5-fluorouracil concentrations detected in the liver, kidney and heart. The above results suggest that the FU-PGA composite can serve as a new device for releasing drugs in a controlled manner and easily targeted to intraperitoneal organs. This device can improve the efficacy of intraperitoneal chemotherapy for gastric cancer.
