Because many centers jointly select the subject, multi-center clinical study can promptly recruit various patient groups into the research, thus being advantageous in terms of generalization. However, prospective clinical study has difficulties in implementation, because it takes a lot of efforts to trace a large scale of subjects. The purpose of this study is to develop a web database system suitable for multi-center prospective clinical study. This study has presented three basic strategies-accurate data input, easy data tracing, and real-time data verification-to supplement the demerits of prospective clinical study. The developed system has been applied in the clinical study proceeded by the study group for Respiratory failure which is affiliated to The Korean Academy of Tuberculosis and Respiratory Diseases's Association for Research on Respiratory Failure and has been verified of its performance.

The purpose of this study was to reduce the sexual problems of middle school students in Youngco-Gu, Busan. The survey was conducted by content analysis which was related with reproductive healty services such as budget, manpower, etc. This study was also conducted with sex education as the object and to measure the effects of sex education. Questionnaires from 203 students(7th-9th graders) in a male middle school were surveyed on Sept. 12-14, 2001. The statistical analysis used were t-test, paired t-test, one-way ANOVA and χ^2 test by using SPSS/PC+ WIN 8.0 program. The results of this study are summarized as follows: First, 66.2% of the students among the subjects had a religion, and of those 50% were buddhists, 34.4% christians, 9.5% catholic. Religion of sexual related matters showed no significant effect. Of these students 68.1% showed medium interest in sexual related matters, 18% little interest or none and 13.5% high interest. 8th graders seemed to show more interest in sexual related matters than other grades. 41.8% of Students seemed to get information on sexual matters from friends and 27.1% from the internet. 30.9% of the respondents talked about their boy/girl friends with their parents compared to 43.3% who chose to talk to their friends about their sexual related problems. Second, 56.7% logged into lascivious-sites on the internet. Of those who logged onto lascivious-sites 46.1% logged in once or twice a month, 31.9% once or twice a week, and 2.7% logged in daily, 69.2% Felt curiosity, 23.4% felt indecent and 7.5% felt like engaging in a sexual act after visiting one of these sites. Third, the effects of sex education on experimental groups of 7th graders showed a 2.1 point increase(p<0.1), 4 point increase for 8th graders(p<.001), and 9th graders increased by 3.3 points(p<.001). Therefore this showed that it was advantageous for students to have sex education. Fourth, the effects of sex education on the students attitude showed only a little more improvement than before in the controlled groups whereas the experimental groups showed a large increase in good attitude in a good direction. Therefore, the experimental groups showed better results in sexual attitude compared to the controlled groups(p<.01).

Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), the most well-known polyhydroxyalkanoate, is a bio-based, biodegradable polymer that has the potential to replace petroleum-based plastics. Lignocellulose hydrolysate, a non-edible resource, is a promising substrate for the sustainable, fermentative production of PHB. However, its application is limited by the generation of inhibitors during the pretreatment processes. In this study, we investigated the feasibility of PHB production in E. coli in the presence of inhibitors found in lignocellulose hydrolysates. Our results show that the introduction of PHB synthetic genes (bktB, phaB, and phaC from Ralstonia eutropha H16) improved cell growth in the presence of the inhibitors such as furfural, 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde, and vanillin, suggesting that PHB synthetic genes confer resistance to these inhibitors. In addition, increased PHB production was observed in the presence of furfural as opposed to the absence of furfural, suggesting that this compound could be used to stimulate PHB production. Our findings indicate that PHB production using lignocellulose hydrolysates in recombinant E. coli could be an innovative strategy for cost-effective PHB production, and PHB could be a good target product from lignocellulose hydrolysates, especially glucose.

배경 및 목적: 파킨슨병은 운동기능에 영향을 미치는 중추신경계의 퇴행성 질환으로 자신의 음성을 자가 모니터링을 하지 못하여 음성의 강도와 음도 조절에 어려움을 보이는 감각장애이다. 반폐쇄성도훈련 중 Lax Vox는 튜브를 물에 넣어 발성하는 것으로 호흡, 공명, 발성의 상호작용에 초점을 맞추어 bio-feedback을 제공하는 총체적인 기법이다. 본 연구는 Lax Vox 음성치료가 파킨슨병 환자의 호흡 및 발성에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 한다. 방법: 파킨슨병 환자 10명(남자 4명, 여자 6명)을 대상으로 Lax Vox 음성치료를 주 1회 간격으로 6주간 총 6회 실시하였다. 치료효과를 살펴보기 위해 음성치료 전후 공기역학적, 음향학적, 청지각적 평가, 전기성문파형 검사 및 한국어판 음성장애지수-10을 실시하였다. 결과: 음성치료 후 공기역학적, 음향학적 및 청지각적 평가 측정치와 음성장애지수가 유의하게 개선되었다. 특히, 폐활량, 음성 강도, 최대발성지속시간이 증가하였으며, 성문하압이 유의미하게 감소하였다. CPP와 음성범위프로파일, 발화 시 평균 강도가 유의하게 증가하였으며, sPPQ, vF0, shimmer, APQ, sAPQ, vAm가 감소하고, 한국어판 음성장애지수-10의 총점이 낮아졌다. 논의 및 결론: Lax Vox 음성치료는 파킨슨병 환자의 호흡 및 발성 능력에 긍정적인 효과가 있음을 확인하였으며, LSVT와 더불어 Lax Vox 음성치료는 파킨슨병 환자의 효과적인 치료법이 될 수 있음을 시사하였다. Objectives: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a degenerative disease of the central nervous system that mainly affects sensory and motor function. PD patients have difficulty in controlling their vocal pitch and loudness, and poor self-monitoring due to their sensory disorder. Among semi-occluded vocal tract exercises, Lax Vox is a holistic method that provides bio-feedback by focusing on the interaction of breathing, resonance, and phonation by tube phonation in water. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Lax Vox voice therapy on respiration and phonation in patients with PD. Methods: Ten patients with PD (4 males and 6 females) underwent Lax Vox voice therapy six times a week for 6 weeks. To assess the effectiveness of Lax Vox voice therapy, aerodynamic, acoustic evaluation, GRBAS scale, electroglottography, and Korean Voice Handicap Index (KVHI)-10 were performed before and after voice therapy. Results: Significant improvement in aerodynamic, acoustic, auditory-perceptual rating measures, and KVHI-10 score was yielded following Lax Vox voice therapy. After treatment, significantly increased vital capacity (VC) and maximum phonation time (MPT); and reduced subglottal pressure (Psub) were observed. Cepstral peak prominence (CPP) was significantly increased and smoothed pitch perturbation quotient (sPPQ), vF0, shimmer, amplitude perturbation quotient (APQ), smoothed APQ (sAPQ), peak-amplitude variation (vAm) were significantly decreased after treatment. Moreover, Voice Range Profile (VRP) was extended and KVHI-10 scored significantly lower. Conclusion: Current outcomes confirmed that significantly positive effects were found in respiration and phonation change following Lax Vox voice therapy for patients with PD. Therefore, Lax Vox voice therapy, in addition to Lee Silverman Voice Treatment, can be useful for an effective treatment option in patients with PD.

Potential role(s) of cysteine cathepsins in cancer progression and metastasis

Hye-Rim Lee, Kyung-Chul Choi 충북대학교 동물의학연구소 2013 Journal of Biomedical and Translational Research Vol.14 No.1

Cancer is the result of damage to the genetic system, i.e., dysfunction of the DNA repair system, resulting in dysregulated expression of various molecules, leading to cancer formation, migration, and invasion. In cancer progression, several proteases play a critical role in metastasis; however, their biological mechanism in cancer metastasis is not clearly understood. Among these proteases, cathepsins are a family of lysosomal proteases found in most animal cells. Cathepsins have an important role in protein turnover of mammalian, and are classified into 15 types based on their structure as serine (cathepsin A and G), aspartic (cathepsin D and E), and cysteine cathepsins (cathepsin B, C, F, H, K, L, O, S, V, X, and W). Cysteine cathepsins appear to accelerate the progression of human and rodent cancers, which can be a biomarker of the potency of malignancy or metastasis in mammalian. Overexpression of cyteine cathepsins causes the activation of angiogenesis promoting factor, whereas their downregulation reduces the angiogenesis of cancer progression. Under physiological conditions, cysteine cathepsins are essential in inflammation, infection, and cancer development. Activity of cysteine proteases, i.e., cathepsin B, is required for cancer progression or metastasis. Elevation of cysteine cathepsin is associated with cancer metastasis, angiogenesis, and immunity. Therefore, in this review, we suggest that cysteine cathepsin may be an anticancer target of strong clinical interest, although the exact mechanism of cathepsins in cancer metastasis is under investigation.

This study has intended to compare public officials perceptions with citizens ones of climate change and to compare climate change vulnerability assessment with citizens’ perceptions. To meet the goals, first, this study employed statistical analysis to analyze the differences in perceptions between the two stakeholders, and examined climate change sensitivity by health, disaster, forestry, water management, and ecosystem. Second, to compare climate change vulnerability with citizens’ perceptions, this study has adopted VESTAP, and a qualitative method. This study found the following results: 1) there were statistically significant differences in the perceptions between the two stakeholders in disaster and ecosystem area, and there were different areas of impact that differed by groups in health, disaster and forestry area; 2) In addition, there was a difference between vulnerability assessment results and citizens’ perceptions in forestry, water management, ecosystem area. Reducing the differences in perceptions between the two stakeholders can increase the effectiveness of implementing climate change adaptation policies. This study has proposed such policies as community system, and both education and promotion programs for citizens.
