The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of core muscle training on balance ability. Forty subjects in their 20s participated in a 6 week core muscle training program. Balance ability before and after the intervention were assessed and analyzed using the Romberg test, which was conducted on the floor, pedalo, and balancefit. The differences between the measurement methods of balance ability using varied platforms was also compared and analyzed. After the 6-week core exercise training program, the training group represented statistically significant increases in all 3 methods for static balance ability. In the control group, all 3 methods represented no statistically significant increases. Upon comparing the different methods of the Romberg test, there were no notable differences between conducting the test on varying platforms for both groups. This study suggests that the core muscle exercise training program increased the balance ability.

음식물류폐기물의 에너지 잠재량은 2,206 천TOE 임에도 대부분 사료화와 퇴비화로 약 85.5%가 재활용 되고 있으며, 해당 시설에서 생산된 제품 중 사료화는 72%, 퇴비화는 61%가 무상판매 되고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 음식물류폐기물을 반탄화 반응을 이용하여 연료화하고자 한다. 하지만 음식 물류폐기물만 단독으로 연료화 할 경우 연료적 가치가 낮아짐을 예방하고자 하수슬러지를 일정 비율로 혼합하여 진행하였다. 음식물류폐기물과 하수슬러지의 혼합비율은 10:0, 8:2, 6:4, 5:5로 하였다. 실험 결과 혼합 비율에 상관없이 반응온도 240℃이상에서 함수율 10% 이하로 감소하는 것을 확인 할 수 있 었다. 고정탄소의 경우 반응온도가 높아질수록, 하수슬러지의 비율이 높아질수록 증가하였으며, 초기 1.1%에서 최대 약 36% 로(혼합비율 6:4, 반응온도 270℃) 측정 되었으며, 발열량의 경우 반응온도 24 0℃부터 고형연료제품기준인 3,000Kcal/Kg 이상에 만족하는 발열량을 나타내었으며, 초기시료보다 약 6 배 정도 증가한 발열량을 얻을 수 있었다. Van krevelen Diagram이 Lignite 범위까지 이동하였으며, 슬 러지 혼합비율이 높아질수록 높은 연료비와 5,500Kcal/kg 이하의 연소성지수를 얻을 수 있었다. 하수슬 러지 혼합 비율이 높아질수록 발열량은 감소하지만, 고정탄소 함량 증가, 연료비 개선 등으로 음식물류 폐기물만 단독 고형연료화 한 것 보다 연료로써의 품질이 좋아지는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다.

This study was conducted to identify how a flexi-bar exercise influences body alignment and balance in adults who have asymmetry in their right or left body. In total, 20 participants were separated into the experimental group and the comparison group. Those in the experimental group participated in a flexi-bar exercise for 6 weeks and based on the coronal plane before and after exercise, their body alignment and balance were measured behind the body. The result was those who had participated in a flexi-bar exercise significantly improved their angle of acromion on both sides, the difference in the angle and height of the posterior superior iliac spine on both sides(p<.05), and the balance of the center sagittal plane(p<.05). Through this study, it could be said that participating in a flexi-bar exercise would improve postural alignment and balance of the shoulder and pelvis in adults with asymmetric posture.

The purpose of this study is to provide the case of influence of myofacial release(MFR) and cryotherapy in acute whiplash injury. The subjects were consisted of 3 adults(2 males, 1 female) who had been diagnosed with whiplash injury. The performance period was 1 weeks, 6 times and 1 time is 40min(MFR: 20min, cryotherapy: 20min). We measured neck pain(Visual analogue scale, VAS) and cervical alignment(cervical curvature & line of gravity). All measurements of each subject were measured at pre-treatment and post-treatment. The results are listed below. The neck pain(VAS) index decreased from 7.54cm to 4.11cm. The cervical curvature increased from 23.62°to 29.76°. The line of gravity decreased from 8.03mm to 3.66mm. Based on the results, it can be suggested that both MFR and cryotherapy can be used to neck pain and alignment in acute whiplash injury.

The anti-proliferative efficacy of t,t-conjugated linoleic acid (t,t-CLA), c9,t11-CLA, and t10,c12-CLA was compared in several human cancer cell lines. Gastric NCI-N87, liver Hep3B, pancreas Capan-2, and lung NCI-H522 cancer cells were incubated with 50 μM CLA isomers over a period of 6 days. The t,t-CLA inhibited the growth of all cancer cell lines to different extents, but c9,t11-CLA and t10,c12-CLA inhibited or stimulated the growth of the cancer cell lines. NCI-N87 cells were the most sensitive to growth inhibition and apoptosis from all CLA isomers tested. In NCI-N87 cells, CLA isomers reduced the release of arachidonic acid (AA) via the inhibition of cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2 ) activity, consequently reducing the production of PGE2 through the inhibition of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). The efficacies of CLA isomers were in the following order (from most to least effective): t,t-CLA, t10,c12-CLA and c9,t11-CLA. Overall, these results imply that the anti-proliferative efficacy of t,t-CLA on cancer cells, especially NCI-N87 cells, was greater than other CLA isomers due to its induction of apoptosis through the inhibition of cPLA2 and COX-2 activities.

Experts of medicine, philosophy and psychology found that human somatotypes were related to personality or physical characteristics and classified somatotypes into various forms. This study explored the changes and types of somatotyping methods from Before Christ to present day and identified the status of studies of somatotypes in the area of physical therapy. This study covered the methods applied in various majors with a focus on those provided in books and papers of Heath BH. and Carter JEL. Based on the results, there are officially twelve assessment methods. Currently, the method of Heath & Carter is most widely applied. Somatotypes are studied in many areas. It is actively explored in the area of pain physical therapy, thermotherapy and integumentary physical therapy. Also, the soft tissue physical therapy area seeks interdisciplinary studies. This study found that there were various assessment methods in diverse areas. It is likely that continuous studies will develop new assessment methods. It is hoped that in the area of physical therapy, somatotypes shall be applied more amply.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of handicraft activities on hand promptness and grasp in the elderly. Subjects were comprised of 14 senior citizens between the ages of 70-85, with 7 subjects in the experiment group and 7 in the control group. Subjects in the experiment group practiced various handicrafts twice a day, while those in the control group did not participate in any special activity. The Jebsen Taylor Hand Function Test was used to evaluate the results, while a dynamometer and pinch gauge were used to measure hand promptness and grasp. The 7 senior citizens in the experiment group were able to increase their hand promptness and grasping skills. Conclusively, handicrafts can help improve hand promptness and grasp in the elderly. Furthermore, the development and improvement of such skills can have a positive influence on the daily lives of senior citizens. Such skills are expected to improve the overall neuro-function in the elderly population.

The majority of strokes are caused by ischemia and result in brain tissue damage, leading to problems of the central nervous system including hemiparesis, dysfunction of language and consciousness, and dysfunction of perception. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase(PARP) on necrosis in neuronal cells that have undergone needle electrode electrical stimulation(NEES) prior to induction of ischemia. Ischemia was induced in male SD rats(body weight 300g) by occlusion of the common carotid artery for 5 min, after which the blood was reperfused. After induction of brain ischemia, NEES was applied to Zusanli(ST 36), at 12, 24 and 48 hours. Protein expression was investigated using immuno-reactive cells, which react to PARP antibodies in cerebral nerve cells, and Western blotting. The results were as follows: In the cerebral cortex, the number of PARP reactive cells after 24 hours significantly decreased(p<.05) in the NEES group compared to the GI group. PARP expression after 24 hours significantly decreased(p<.05) in the NEES group compared to the GI group. As a result, NEES showed the greatest effect on necrosis- related PARP immuno-reactive cells 24 hours after ischemia, indicating necrosis inhibition, blocking of neural cell death, and protection of neural cells. Based on the results of this study, NEES can be an effective method of treating dysfunction and improving function of neuronal cells in brain damage caused by ischemia.

신선초 김치 개발의 일환으로 신선초 김치 숙성 중 chlorophyll 함량변화 및 휘발성 향기성분을 분석하였다. 신선초 김치의 chlorophyll은 2일 이후부터 분해되기 시작하였다 5일 이후는 대체로 감소의 폭이 적었다. 초기 1.78ul/ml의 chlorophyll 함량이 3일 후 1.06 ul/ml에 도달하였으나 총 chlorophyll, a 및 b의 감소율은 각각 비슷하였다. 총 chlorophyll 함량은 숙성기간 중 점차 감소하였다. 이중 chlorophyll a는 숙성초기에 많이 감소하여 숙성 말기에는 더 이상 감소하지 않았으나 chlorophyll b는 숙성 3일까지는 감소하지 않다가 숙성 5일부터 급격히 감소하였다. 신선초 김치의 주 향기성분은 sabinene, α-pinene, α-terpinolene이었으며, 숙성됨에 따라 점차 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 관능적 특성에서는 색택, 신맛, 쓴맛, 종합적인 맛이 발효기간에 따라 유의성 있는 차이를 나타내었으며, 신선초 김치는 20℃에서 1∼2일 정도 발효시켰다가 냉장 저장하는 것이 바람직하다고 생각된다.

감잎의 메탄올 추출물은 농도에 비례해서 지질의 과산화를 크게 억제하였으며, 이들의 용매로 더 분획하여 얻은 헥산, 클로로포름, 에틸아세테이트, 부탄올 및 물 획분도 농도에 비례하여 항산화 효과가 관찰되었다, 이들중 가장 활성이 컸던 획분은 클로로포름과 에틸아세테이트 획분이었다. 한편 감잎의 열탕추출물과 감잎 탄닌의 경우도 농도에 비례해서 큰 항산화 효과가 관찰되었으며, 항돌연변이 및 암세포 증식억제 효과에서와 마찬가지로 열탕추출물에 비해 감잎 탄닌이 보다 높은 항산화 활성을 나타내었다. 이는 감잎의 열탕추출물에 함유된 탄닌의 농도에 기인하리라 생각되며, UV, IR, HPLC등을 이용하여 감잎으로부터 추출한 추출물이 탄닌임을 확인하였다.

고려인삼(Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer) 잎 중의 가용성 invertase를 탈이온수로 추출한 후 황산암모늄 0, 4∼0.6 포화획분에 의하여 조제하였으며 이의 효소화힉적 성질을 검토한 결과는 다음과 같다. 본 효소의 최적 pH와 온도는 pH 6.0과 40℃ 였으며 pH 6.0∼8.0 범위와 40℃ 이하에서 안정하였다. Protease 및 단백질 변성제 처리에 의하여 활성이 현저히 저하되었으며 glycosidase에 의해서는 저해를 받지 않았다. 본 효소는 sucrose와 inulin 등의 β-fructofuranoside 결합을 가진 기질에 특이적으로 작용하여 전형적인 β-fructofuranosidase의 성질을 나타내었다.

In the present study, an attempt was made to investigate the effect of stearic acid on the autoxidation of the commercial rice bran oil. Rice bran oil samples with stearic acid at 0.1, 0.3 and 0.5% level were kept at 45±0.3℃ for 40 days. The rate of autoxidation of each samples was estimated regulary on the basis of the changes of peroxide value, acid value, anisidine value and the fatty acid composition. The results were as follows : The peroxide, acid and anisidine values of the rice bran oil with the stearic acid at 0.1, 0.3 and 0.5% levels during the autoxidation increased as compared with that of the rice bran oil without the stearic acid. The induction period of the rice bran oil without the stearic acid, control was 19.8 days, while those of the bran oil with stearic acid at 0.1, 0.3 and 0.5% levels varied 19.0 days, 17.7 days and 14.2 days, respctively. In conclusion, it seemed that stearic acid acted as weak prooxidant when added at 0.1, 0.3 and 0.5% levels to the commercial rice bran oil. The prooxidant activity of the stearic acid appeared to depend on the oxidative mechanism and their concentration.
