    ํ•™์œ„๋…ผ๋ฌธ (๋ฐ•์‚ฌ)-- ์„œ์šธ๋Œ€ํ•™๊ต ๋Œ€ํ•™์› : ํ˜‘๋™๊ณผ์ • ์œ ์ „๊ณตํ•™์ „๊ณต, 2013. 2. ์ด์„ฑ์ค‘.Traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) is accompanied by widespread neuronal cell death, consecutive inflammation processes and glial scar formation. Damage in an injured spinal cord is modulated by the progressive functions of microglia, neutrophils, macrophages and astrocytes. Many studies have reported that neutrophils and macrophages have an effect on the damage and recovery of the injured spinal cord. However, it is still controversial whether these cells play a beneficial or harmful role in the spinal cord injury. In the first chapter, to address the in vivo role of these immune cells in SCI, I utilized myeloid cell-specific IฮบB kinase (IKK)-ฮฒ conditional knockout (ikkฮฒฮ”mye) mice, in which ikkฮฒ gene is specifically deleted from myeloid cells including neutrophils and macrophages. Ikkฮฒฮ”mye mice showed significantly reduced inflammatory responses of neutrophils and macrophages in SCI compared to ikkฮฒ+/+ controls: SCI-induced expression of proinflammatory mediators and a potent neutrophil-attractant, C-X-C motif (CXC) ligand 1, were reduced in ikkฮฒฮ”mye mice. In addition, neuronal loss, axonal damage, and behavioral deficits in motor activity were attenuated. These results demonstrate that IKK-ฮฒ-dependent neutrophil and macrophage activation potentiates neuroinflammation and increases neuronal damage after SCI. In the second chapter, I characterized the in vivo role of TLR3 in SCI using TLR3 knockout mice to test whether TLR3 signaling is involved in the inflammatory responses observed in the injured spinal cord. TLR3 plays important roles in innate immune cell activation in response to tissue damage. However, it is not clear whether TLR3 functions beneficial or detrimental in SCI. At 5 days post-injury (dpi), axon demyelination and vestibulospinal tract (VST) axon did not differ in the wild-type and TLR3 knockout mice. However, in TLR3 knockout mice, behavioral recovery was improved at 14 dpi, and the axon demyelination and lesion volume were attenuated at 35 dpi compared to the wild-type mice. In addition, more axons in the corticospinal tract (CST) and VST were detected in the TLR3 knockout mice at 24 dpi or 35 dpi, respectively. Upon SCI, TLR3 expression increased mainly in astrocytes and oligodendrocytes. Furthermore, astrocytes were vigorously activated in SCI-induced wild-type mice, which were relatively attenuated in TLR3 knockout mice. In addition, there was less chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs) deposited in the TLR3 knockout mice compared to the wild-type mice. Interestingly, expression and activation of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), a protease involved in CSPG degradation, increased more in the TLR3 knockout mice compared to the wild-type mice after SCI. MMP-2 expression was detected mostly in astrocytes in the injured spinal cord. In the in vitro assays, recombinant CSPG was degraded by MMP-2. The expression level of MMP-2 was higher in astrocytes from the TLR3 knockout mice than from the wild-type mice. Furthermore, TLR3 stimulation inhibited TGF-ฮฒ-induced MMP-2 expression in wild-type astrocytes. These data suggest that the TLR3 signaling inhibits MMP-2 expression in astrocytes in the spinal cord during SCI. Taken together, my data show that TLR3 has a detrimental role in SCI at least by partly inhibiting astrocytic MMP-2 expression, which results in the accumulation of CSPG and the impairment of axon regeneration and functional recovery after SCI. In this study, I conclusively found that IKK-dependent macrophage and neutrophil activation exacerbates SCI and that TLR3-mediated inhibition of MMP-2 expression in astrocytes impedes recovery from SCI.CONTENTS ABSTRACT ------------- i CONTENTS ------------- iv LIST OF FIGURES ----- ix LIST OF TABLES ------ xi GENERAL INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE GENERAL INTRODUCTION ------------- 2 1.

[์˜๋ฌธ] This study was conducted on stress and the coping methods used by manual workers and clerical workers between April 5 and April 10, 1989. The study population consisted of 165 manual workers and 155 clerical workers of the 8th Industrial factory of the Guu-Ro Industrial Base in Seoul, Korea. This study purposed to identify the difference in stress symptoms and severity of stress, and the difference in coping methods used by each of the manual worker group and the clerical worker group. Two instruments were used in this study. Stress symptom were measured by Ilfeld's (1977) PSI (Psychiatric Symptom Index) which consists of 29 item. J.M. Bell's (1977) 34 item instrument was used to identify coping methods. Twenty-six of these items are concerned with short term coping methods and eighttems items are concerted with long-term methods. The materials were analyzed by SPSS (Statitical Package for the Social Science) program. These results can be used by public Health Nurses in Psychiatric health management of Korean industrial workers. The result of analysis is as follows: 1) The scores of psysical and psychological complains were much higher in manual work ers than in clerical workers, especially anxiety, depression and cognitive disturbances. 2) Mean score of psychiatric symptoms for broth workers was higher in females, youth, and low educated workers. 3) Mean score of psychiatric symptom in man workers was higher in manual worriers than in clerical workers. Mean score of cognitive disturbance symptoms in female workers were higher in manual workers than in clerical workers. Mean score of psychiatric symptom in low educated workers was higher in manual workers than in clerical workers. The yonger age group has the more complaints of psychiatric symptoms(r=-.13 p<.05). 4) Manual workers used more Short-term coping methods than clerical workers and clerical workers used more Long-term coping methods than manual workers. 5) The mean score of Short-term coping methods was higher in high stressed group than in the low stressed group, but there was no statistical significant difference between the two groups. The mean score of Long-term coping methods was higher in the low stressed group than in the high stressed group, but there was no significant difference between the two groups.prohibitio

[์˜๋ฌธ]As the number of elderly people in the population is rapidly increasing, the prevalence rate for dementia is also increasing and becoming an issue with medical and social aspects. ''Dementia'' is characterized as a chronic and degenerative disease and elderly patients with dementia depend on their caregivers for 24 hour a day care. Therefore the burden placed on the caregivers accumulates and they experience various hardships and discomfort. Providing care is often done at great personal sacrifice for caregivers who experience physical, emotional and social stress, restrictions on time and freedom, and economic hardships. Traditionally, it has been taken for granted that caregives will provide care at home by themselves without any government social support programs. Social support programs are known to mediate burden and increase the state of well-being. The purpose of this study was to develop a social support program for caregivers of elderly people with dementia and to examine the effects of the social support program on reduction of burden and increase in well-being in the caregivers. The research used a quasi-experimental pre-and post-test design. The participants in the study were 37 caregivers of elderly people with dementia who were registered at the Dementia Counselling Center of four public health centers. Eighteen were assigned to the intervention group and 19 to the control group. The independent variable was the social support program and the dependent variables were burden and well-being. Well-being was conceptualized as including quality of life, life satisfaction and health status and operationalized as the scores for quality of life, life satisfaction and physical symptoms. The program for the intervention group consisted of 10 sessions, once a week for one and a half hours, over a period of 10 weeks. Emotional, informational and material support, and respite care were provided. Data were collected from both groups before the program began, at the mid point (5 weeks), and after completion of the program (10 weeks). A questionnaire was used and data collection was done from May to July, 2003. The data were processed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) program and analyzed with Fisher''s exact test, Mann-Whiteney U test, repeated measured ANOVA, and Spearman''s correlation. The results are as follows : Hypothesis 1, that there would be a decrease in burden for the intervention group which received the social support program compared to the control group which did not, was accepted. Burden for the intervention group decreased significantly at the end of the 10 week program. Burden for the control group increased significantly at both the mid point (5 weeks) and at the end of the study (10 weeks). Hypothesis 2, that there would be an increase in quality of life for the intervention group which received the social support program compared to the control group which did not, was accepted. Quality of Life for the intervention group increased significantly at both the mid point (5 weeks) and the at the end of the 10 week program. Quality of Life for the control group decreased significantly at both the mid point (5 weeks) and at the end of the study (10 weeks). Hypothesis 3, that there would be increase in life satisfaction for the intervention group which received the social support program compared to the control group which did not, was accepted. Life satisfaction for the intervention group increased significantly at the end of the 10 week program. Life Satisfaction for the control group decreased significantly at both the mid point (5 weeks) and at the end of the study (10 weeks). Hypothesis 4, that there would be an decrease in physical symptoms for the intervention group which received the social support program compared to the control group which did not, was accepted. Physical symptoms for the intervention group decreased significantly at the end of the 10 week program. Physical symptoms for the control group decreased significantly at both the mid point (5 weeks) and at the end of the study (10 weeks). There was no significant correlation between the caregiver burden and problem behavior in the elderly people with dementia, nor between caregiver burden and family hardiness. There were negative correlations between the caregiver burden and well-being, quality of life, life satisfaction and the health status of the caregivers. In conclusion, the social support program for caregivers of elderly people with dementia was shown to be an effective intervention to reduce burden, improve quality of life, life satisfaction, and health status. It is hoped that nurses will use the program developed in this study when caring for caregivers of patients with various chronic illness and thus add to the comprehensiveness of nursing.ope
