Foot ulceration results in substantial morbidity in patients with peripheral neuropathy. The purpose of this study was to find the relationship of plantar foot pressures during walking to plantar ulceration in patients with Hansen's disease. The subjects were recuruited from two Welfare Clinic for Hansen's disease in Wonju and Uiwang city. Ten subjects (5 females, 5 males) with plantar ulceration and a mean age of 63 years were evaluated in this study. The mean duration of Hansen's disease in these subjects was 30 years. Plantar pressures were measured during self-selected comfortable walking speed by using MatScan system. Three subjects had plantar ulceration under the first metatarsal head. Five subjects had plantar ulceration under the second and third metatarsal head. Two subjects had plantar ulcers under the fifth metatarsal head. Eight of 10 subjects had plantar ulceration at highest pressure point that measured during walking. This result suggests that the abnormal high plantar pressure could be related factor to plantar ulceration in patients with Hansen's disease. Also the foot pressure measurement may be useful to evaluate the risk of plantar ulceration in patients with Hansen's disease.

Delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) is a common problem that can interfere with rehabilitation as well as activities of daily living. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of both transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and microcurrent electrical neuromuscular stimulation (MENS) on DOMS, Twenty-seven untrained and male volunteer subjects were randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups: 1) a group that received TENS (7 Hz), 2) MENS (60 , .3 pps) or 3) a control group that received no treatment. Subjects performed repeated eccentric exercise of the non-dominant forearm flexor muscle with submaximal intensity by the simply designed eccentric exercise devices. Treatments were applied after 24 hours and 48 hours. Subjects attended on two consecutive days for treatment and measurement of elbow flexion, extension, resting angle (universal goniometer), and pain (visual analogue scale: VAS) on a daily basis. Measurements were taken after treatment. Analysis of results were as follows; 1) There were no significant differences between TENS and MENS by one-way repeated ANOVA, 2) The t-test for pain, resting, flexion and extension angle revealed significant differences within TENS group, 3) The t-test for resting angle revealed significant differences within MENS group.

Atlatoxin은 Aspergillus속 곰팡이로부터 생성되며 사람에게 있어서 간독성, 및 간암을 유발하는 잠재력을 가진 대표적 곰팡이 독소이며, 생체에 섭취된 은 여러 가지 대사경로를 거쳐 동물 조직 내에 축적되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 방사선은 수술, 항암약물요법과 더불어 임상 시 중요한 치료방법이나 정상세포에 방사선을 조사하였을 때 반응성이 높은 활성산소와 과산화라디칼()을 생성하여 세포막의 불포화 지방산을 지질 과산화물로 변성시켜 세포 산

새로운 형태의 쌀겨단무지를 개발하기 위하여, 쌀겨에 스테비아 잎 분말 및 호박산, 효모 추출물 등을 첨가한 쌀겨 단무지의 절임기간 중 이화학적 특성과 조직감의 변화를 측정하였다. 첨가물로써 대조구는 삭카린나트륨을 사용하였으며, 처리구 S1은 스테비아 잎 분말을, 처리구 S2는 스테비아 잎 분말 + 호박산, 처리구 S3은 스테비아 잎 분말+ 호박산 + 효모 분말을 사용하였다. 쌀겨단무지의 절임 90일째 pH는 호박산을 첨가한 처리구 52와 53에서
