The data was analyzed by SPSS 12.0 program, the internal consistency reliability analysis and t-test, ANOVA, and the result of study is as follows. 1) The health promoting behavior of general characteristic by the health perception In the health promoting behavior by sex distinction, the group with high health perception had high health promoting behavior, and in the health promoting behavior by sex distinction and health perception, there was relevance between sex distinction and health perception but there was no interaction effect between sex distinctions. In health promoting behavior by age, the group with high health perception had high health promoting behavior, and in the health promoting behavior by age and health perception, there was no relevance with age but health perception, and there was no interaction effect between the sex distinction and health perception.

The patients with end stage renal disease show several complications due to oxygen free radicals. There might be some alterations in damages related oxygen free radicals and antioxidant systems in patients with end stage renal disease. Malondialdehyde and three well-known antioxidant enzyme levels in plasma were measured before and after hemodialysis. Before dialysis, malondialdehyde level in the plasma from the patients with end stage renal disease was higher than those from healthy controls. Superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase activities in patients were lower than those from healthy controls. Plasma catalase activity was similar with normal control value. After hemodialysis, malondialdehyde level was still higher. Superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase activities were returned to normal level and catalase activity was increased after hemodialysis. Our results suggest that there is an overproduction of superoxide anion with an impairment in disposition of hydrogen peroxide inpatients with end stage renal disease. These alterations may contribute the patients with end stage renal disease susceptible to oxidant damages. Although single hemodiaysis is not helpful for protection of the damage induced by oxygen free radicals, it is helpful for normalizing the activities of antioxidant enzymes. especially superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase.
