이배익,정일호,권만근 한국스포츠리서치 2003 한국 스포츠 리서치 Vol.14 No.4

Recently, the diet of middle aged Korean men is changing. Instead of eating Korean foods exclusively, they are consuming more Western foods which are often unhealthy. In addition, they are exercising less. These factors are leading to a rise in lifestyle related disease, such as diabetes, and dangerous medical conditions like hypertension. As a result, some middle aged men have taken up light exercise, such as hiking, walking, swimming etc. However, they don't know how to set up an exercise program, i.e. frequency of exercise, intensity, duration, etc. A 15 week exercise class was set up 36 middle aged men. Before the class began, a physical fitness and blood test were administered to each subject. The same tests were repeated after the 15th week. Based on the initial results, individual programs were prepared for each participant. A step calorie counter was supplied to measure their exercise activity. The step count results were checked everday, and based on the results, the subjects were divided into three groups for analytical purposes. The firts group, sixteen subjects(44%), averaged a little over 8,000 steps per day. The second group, eight subjects(22%), averaged between 8-10,000 steps per day. The third group, twelve subjects(33%), averaged a little over 10,000 steps per day. After fifteen weeks, the total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol and LDL cholesterol of all subjects showed no significant change. The second and third group showing an especially marked decrease in blood sugar. Also, physical fitness improved for the second and third groups. In conclusion, both groups doing the most exercise showed improvement in their TG and blood sugar results. Blood pressure also decreased for these two groups, which was not true for the first group, also, physical fitness improved in the second and third groups, while the first group showed no significant change. It appears that exceeding a certain minimum level of exercise is required to achieve good results. What would happen if group 1 did the same exercise for longer than is weeks.

근접작업이 시력약화의 원인이 될 수 있는가를 알아보기 위하여 전자부품을 제조하는 2개 사업장에서 1991년에서 1993년까지 입사한 근로자들 중에서 근접작업으로 인정되는 마이크로칩을 조립하는 근접작업자 306명을 조사군으로, 대조군은 세탁기 타이머 및 일반 기계기구를 조립하는 작업자 154명, 계 460명을 선정하였다. 이들 대상자는 1991년 입사자는 1993, 1994, 1995년 시력을 조사하였으며, 1992년 입사자는 1993, 1994, 1995년 3년동안 조사를 하였으며, 1993년 입사자는 1994, 1995년 2년간 시력을 조사하였다. 대상자 중에서 입사시 안경을 착용한 근로자는 82명(17.8%)이었다. 따라서 남자 근로자와 안경착용자를 제외한 여성 근로자들 335명만을 추적 조사하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 조사군에서 입사시 시력 1.0 이상이었던 근로자의 분포는 취업 1년 후 약 25-35% 정도 감소하였으며, 2년후에는 약 40-60% 정도의 감소를 나타내었고, 3년 후 약 50-65% 정도로 감소하였고 4년후에는 약 65% 이상 감소하였다. 그러나 대조군에서는 1.0 이상의 시력을 보였던 근로자들의 비율이 취업 1년 또는 2년 후 15-30%의 감소를 보이고 있으나 그 이후에는 큰 변동이 없었다. 이들의 시력변화를 근무년수에 따라 알아보기 위하여 조사된 시력을 순위변수로 하여 Kruskall-Wallis 검정을 시행한 결과 조사군, 대조군 모두에서 근속년수에 따른 순위의 합의 평균이 년차적으로 유의하게 감소하였으나, 입사시부터 근속년수에 따른 조사군과 대조군과의 순위합의 평균에 의한 시력차 비교에서 입사시 조사군의 순위합의 평균이 유의하게 높았던 것이 근무기간에 따라 대조군의 평균이 높아지면서 통계적 유의성이 없고 대체적으로 1년 이후부터 변화가 적은 것으로 나타나 근접작업으로 인한 시력약화를 추정할 수 있었다. This study was carried out to investigate that the close distance works were associated with decreased visual acuity. 306 workers were subjects who had been recruited from 1991 to 1993 in two electronic parts manufacturing factories, and 154 workers were controls who had been employed from 1991 to 1993 in launder machine timer and general machine assembly factories. Subjects who had been employed in 1991 and 1992 were follow up from 1993 to 1995, and subjects who had been employed in 1993 were from 1994 to 1995. The male workers as well as glasses wearing workers were excluded. Only 335 female workers were followed up to study the change of visual acuity. The results were as follows; The rate of workers with visual acuity over 1.0 at recruit year in subjects group was decreased about 25-35% after 1 year, 40-60% after 2 years, 50-65% after 3 years, and 65% after 4 years. While, the rate of workers with visual acuity over 1.0 at recruit year in control group was decreased about 15-30% after 1 or 2 years, and there was no more additional visual acuity reduction after then. Kruskall-Wallis test was performed to investigate the change of visual acuity in subject and control group by work duration. The means scores of ranks in both group were significantly decreased by work duration. The mean scores of ranks in subject group at recruit year were significantly higher than those in control group at recruit year, but these differences were disappeared after 1 year work. Therefore, this suggest that close distance workers may be affected their visual acuity.

이성규,조남한,김현만,이관우,정윤석,채봉남,김윤정,이미덕,노혜림,홍은경,조현경 대한당뇨병학회 2000 Diabetes and Metabolism Journal Vol.24 No.1

Background: Korean type 2 diabetic patients who are frequently non-obese, may be genetically different from Western type 2 diabetics who are frequently obese. Therefore, the diabetic complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus in Korea may be also different from those of Western countries. Until now, most studies reported in Korea did not analyse the microvascular complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus according to obesity, and also the criteria in the diagnosis of microvascular complications were different in each study. We investigated the microvascular complications and its relationship with obesity, in type 2 diabetic patients visiting an outpatient clinic. Methods: The study subjects were type 2 diabetic patients visiting an outpatient clinic of Ajou University Hospital. We selected patients participating in a 75 g oral glucose tolerance test, retrospectively. Type 2 diabetes was diagnosed according to the WHO/NDDG classification of diabetes. Biochemical studies including lipid profile, plasma insulin and C-peptide levels were done. Anthropometric measurements were performed. Based on BMI (㎏/㎡), the patients were divided into the following groups: the lean group, when the BMI was less than 20 ㎏/㎡ the ideal body weight (IBW) group, if the BMI was between 20 ㎏/㎡ and 25 ㎏/㎡ in women and 20 ㎏/㎡ and 27 ㎏/㎡ in men; and the obese group, when the BMI was $gt;25 ㎏/㎡ in women and $gt;27 ㎏/㎡ in men. Results: 1. Neuropathy (45.2%) was the most frequent among the microvascular complications, and the frequency of retinopathy was 15.1%, and that of nephropathy was 4.9%. Within 5 years of diabetes duration, the frequency of neuropathy, retinopathy, and nephropathy was 43.2%, 11.8%, and 2.9%, respectively. 2. Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA_(1c)) and fasting blood glucose levels were not different among the three groups. Beta cell function{Δ (insulin 30min - insulin Omin)/Δ(glucose 30min - glucose 0min)} was the highest in the obese group. However, beta cell function(ΔI/ΔG) divided by the basal insulin level, considered insulin resistance, was not different among the three groups. 3. Within 5 years of diabetes duration, retinopathy tended to be the most frequent in the lean group, whereas neuropathy tended to be the most frequent in the obese group, and body mass index influenced the retinopathy and neuropathy, statistically significantly. Conclusion: Diabetic neuropathy was the most frequent among microvascular complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus in our study subjects. At the time of presentation within 5 years of diabetes duration, the lean group of type 2 diabetics had a tendency of the more frequent retinopathy, the obese group had a tendency of the more frequent neuropathy. These results suggest that type 2 diabetes mellitus in Korea is also not a single disease entity, as in Western countries and is a heterogenous group of disorders with a diversity of microvascular complications. However, the more studies about this will be required.

한국인에게서 그레이브스병 약물치료의 적정기간

이형숙,이동훈,정희선,이종우,김정은,신승수,정윤석,이관우,김현만 대한내분비학회 2003 Endocrinology and metabolism Vol.18 No.1

연구배경: 그레이브스병의 치료에는 항갑상선제, 수술 및 방사성 요오드법이 선택되어 사용되고 있다. 이중 항갑상선제는 가장 많이 선호되고 있으나 낮은 관해율과 높은 재발율로 장기간 치료기간이 요구된다. 저자들은 그레이브스병 환자에게서, 선택되는 치료법의 선호도와 각 치료법의 관해율을 조사하고자 본 연구를 시행하였다. 또한 본 연구에서는 항갑선제 치료의 적정기간을 평가하고자 하였다. 방법: 아주대학교병원에 내원한 환자 중 1년 이상 추적관찰이 가능한 205명의 그레이브스병 환자를 대상으로 조사하였다. 항갑상제군, 수술군 및 방사성 요오드군은 각각 170명, 29명 그리고 6명이었다. ROC curve를 이용하여 약물치료의 예후예측인자를 분석하였다. 결과: 1) 그레이브스병 환자의 치료 방법의 선택은 항갑상선제군, 수술군 및 방사성 요오드군 각각 170명(83.0%), 29명(14.1%) 그리고 6명(2.9%)으로 항갑상선제 치료가 가장 선호되었다. 2) 그레이브스병의 관해율은 항갑상선제군, 수술군 및 방사성 요오드군에서 각각 60.0%(102/170명), 96.5%(28/29명) 그리고 83.0%(5/6명)으로 수술군이 가장 높았다. 3) ROC curve의 AUC는 치료기간과 진단시 TBII가 각각 0.709 및 0.648이었고 적절한 약물투여 추적 관찰기간은 26개월이었다. 결론: 그레이브스병의 일차 치료법으로는 항갑상선제가 선호되고 있으나 수술 및 방사성 요오드 치료군에 비해 상대적으로 낮은 관해율을 보였다. 따라서 항갑상선제 치료로 26개월 이상 관해가 되지 않을 경우에는 치료 방법의 변경을 고려하는 것이 관해율을 높이는데 도움이 될 것으로 생각된다. Background: Graves' disease in an organ specific autoimmune disease. Three kinds of therapeutic modalities (antithyroid drugs, ablation with radioactive iodine and subtotal thyroidectomy) are frequently performed for the management of this disease. The most popular therapeutic policy for the disease in Korea is antithyroid treatment. We analysed and compared the remission rates of all three modalities for Graves' disease, and evaluated the antithyroid modality to determine the correct duration of treatment. Subjects & Methods : The medical records of 205 patients with Graves' disease were reviewed. For the evaluation of the antithyroid modality medical treatment, antithyroid drugs were administered for more than 1 year. The prognostic factors associated with remission were analysed by means of an ROC curve. Results: 1) Of the 205 patients, proportions that received medical therapy, subtotal thyroidectomy and radioiodine therapy were 83.0, 14.1 and 2.9%, respectively. 2) The remission rates of the medical therapy, surgery and radioiodine therapy were 60.0, 96.5 and 83.0%, respectively. 3) The remission rate of the medical therapy was associated with the duration of medication and TBII activity. The determined proper duration for the antithyroid treatment was 26 months from the ROC curve analysis. Conclusion: The above results suggest that the proper duration of antithyroid treatment for Graves' disease is 26 months, after which time the subtotal thyroidectomy or radioiodine therapy should be considered if the disease has not remitted (J Kor Soc Endocrinol 18:24∼31, 2003).

Jung, Eui-Man,Yang, Hyun,An, Beum-Soo,Lee, Geun-Shik,Hyun, Sang-Hwan,Choi, Kyung-Chul,Jeung, Eui-Bae 韓國受精卵移植學會 2011 한국동물생명공학회지 Vol.26 No.4

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are a class of "brominated" (bromine containing) man-made chemicals used as flame retardant additives in plastics, foams, and textiles. PBDEs are found in various environmental contaminants in air, soil, sediment, and water, and 209 individual forms (congeners) of PBDE exist. Among these, 2,2',4,4'-tetrabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-47) is the dominant congener found in the environment. Exposure to BDE-47 is now worldwide, and levels of BDE-47 have been detected in the blood of animals, including humans. BDE-47 can adversely affect the developmental system in both humans and animals. BDEs have structural similarities to polychlorinated biphenyls and thyroid hormones. However, recent studies have shown that BDEs may act as hormonal disrupting chemicals with detrimental effects. Therefore, a reliable assessment of BDE-47 toxicological action is required to understand the detrimental impacts of BDE-47 on human health. In this review, we overview recent studies on the distribution and potential toxicological effects of BDE-47 in humans and animals.

12주간의 유산소운동과 통근수단 전환이 비만 중년 남성의 신체구성과 혈중 지질에 미치는 영향

이소라(Lee, So-Ra),김예영(Kim, Yae-Yeong),정원상(Jung, Won-Sang),이만균(Lee, Man-Gyoon) 한국체육과학회 2015 한국체육과학회지 Vol.24 No.2

The study was designed to investigate the effects of 12 weeks of aerobic exercise and change of commuting mode to public transportation on body composition and blood lipid profiles in middle-aged obese men. Forty subjects, aged 30-50 yrs, whose BMI was higher than 25 kg · m-2, were randomly assigned to one of three groups, i.e., aerobic exercise training group(AT; n=13), change of commuting mode group(CCM; n=14), and control group(CON; n=13). Subjects in the AT participated in aerobic exercise program, peformed at 40-75% of HRR, 15-35 min/session, 3 sessions/wk for 12 weeks, and subjects in the CCM changed the commuting mode from their own vehicle to public transportation 5 day/wk, 10 times/wk for 12 weeks. Subject in the CON were asked to maintain their normal life patterns during the same intervention period. Variables regarding body composition and blood lipid profiles were measured in pre-test and post-test, and the results were compared among three groups and between two tests. Main results of the present study were as follows: l) Walking amount increased significantly in only CCM as treated. 2) Body weight, waist circumference, waist-hip ratio, body mass index, body fat, and fat mass decrease significantly in the AT, while body weight, body mass index, body fat, and fat mass decreased significantly in the CCM (P〈.05), 3) LDL-C decreased significantly in the AT(P〈.01) and the CCM(P〈.05). It was concluded that 12 weeks of change of commuting mode to public transportation as well as aerobic exercise would be beneficial for improving variables regarding body composition and blood lipid profiles. Increment of physical activity by changing to public transportation from their own vehicle would be helpful to prevent obesity and dyslipidemia.

We have examined l5145 persons(7468 men 7677 women) to determine the role of Obesity Index(body mass index, WHR, body fat percent) on the risk of various chronic disease. All the subjects were pooled from Health Examination Center who took the annual health examination from June, 1994 through Jan, 1997, BMI(Body mass index, kg/㎡), WHR(Waist hip ratio) were measured and correlated with the frequency of chronic disease. In order to evaluated the BMI, WHR, Body Fat as an independent factors on rnorbidity, analysis of covariance was applied adjusted for age. The risk of variows chronic diseases were also analyzed with obesity, defined by BMI above 26kg/㎡ (men), 25kg/㎡ (women), by logistic regression adjusted age and sex. Risk of hypertension was 2.6 with 95% eonfidence interval of 1.9-2.8 in obese group. Risk of diabetes mel1itus, hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, gall stone, fatty liver were 3.2(2.3-4.4), 1.2(0.9-1.4), 2.1(1.7-2.8), 1.4(1.1-2.6) and 1.3(0.8-2.3) respectiveiy. The risk of various chronic diseases were also analyzed with obesity, WHR above 0.9(men), 0.81(women), by logistic regression adjusted age and sex. Risk of hypertension was 1.7 with 95% confidence interval of 1.4 -2.1 in obese group. Risk of diabetes mellitus, hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, gall stone, fatty liver were 3.1(2.3-4.0), 1.2(0.9-l.4), 1.4(1.1-2.6), 2.4(l.8-4.8) and 2.1(1.2-4.1) respectively. The BMI, WHR were independent risk factors for various chronic diseases.

Backgroud: Chronic pulmonary aspergillosis (CPA) is uncommon and there are few data on the clinical characteristics, optimal therapeutic strategies, and outcomes. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the records of patients with newly diagnosed CPA and assessed the clinical, radiologic, and laboratory responses, and outcomes between January 2008 and January 2012. Results: A total of 70 CPA patients were included. Median age was 55 years and 51 patients (72.9% ) were men. Fifty-seven patients (81.4%) had a history of pulmonary tuberculosis and 32 patients (45.7%) had non-tuberculosis mycobacterium (NTM) lung disease, 17 of whom had a history of NTM treatment and 15 was under NTM treatment. Sixty-nine patients (98.6%) received oral itraconazole, except one with oral voriconazole for a median duration of 6.2 months. Symptomatic improvement occurred in 52 patients (74.3%), radiologic improvement occurred in 29 (41.4%), and laboratory tests improved more than 60% of all patients. Thirty-six patients (51.4%) achieved treatment success, defined as symptomatic improvement after at least 6 months of therapy regardless of radiological improvement, and 4 of whom needed retreatment after a median of 8.4 months. There was no difference in clinical characteristics and outcomes according to NTM status and 10 (14.3%) discontinued therapy due to adverse reactions. Death occurred in 10 (14.3%) and median follow-up duration was 11.2 months. Conclusion: Antifungal therapy for about 6 months and reassessment of disease might be feasible treatment strategy in managing patients with CPA.
