목 적: 인삼은 한국을 비롯한 아시아 국가에서 전통적으로 불면증의 치료에 사용되어 왔으며 쥐를 이용한 동물실험에서 수면을 촉진시키는 효과가 있다는 연구 결과가 있어왔다. 하지만 이러한 효과를 입증할 만한 임상 실험은 거의 이루어지지 않았다. 이에 본 연구에서는 고려 홍삼이 수면에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 한다. 방 법: 건강한 성인 남성 20명을 대상으로 하였으며 이들은 무작위로 홍삼군과 위약군에 배정되어 2주간의 실험이 진행되었다. 홍삼군의 경우 하루 4,500 mg의 홍삼을 섭취하였다. 실험 시작시점과 2주 후인 종료시점에 수면다원검사를 시행하여 두군간의 변수의 변화를 비교하였다. 결 과: 총 15명의 대상자, 즉 홍삼군 8명과 위약군 7명이 수면다원검사를 시행 받았으며 홍삼군이 위약군 보다 실험 종료 시점에서 3단계 수면이 증가한(p=0.087) 반면에 2단계 수면이 감소하는(p=0.071) 경향을 나타냈다. 결 론: 본 연구 결과는 고려 홍삼이 깊은 잠은 증가시키고 얕은 잠은 감소시키는 경향이 있음을 보여준다. 이는 통계적으로 유의한 결과는 아니지만 홍삼이 수면의 질을 향상시키는 데 효과적임을 짐작하게 한다. 그러나, 보다 많은 대상군과 충분한 홍삼 용량으로 보다 긴 기간 동안 진행되는 연구를 통해 고려 홍삼의 수면에 대한 효과를 확인할 필요가 있다.

Objectives: Ginseng has a long history of being used in insomnia treatment and there is some evidence from animal studies of its sleep-enhancing property. From this, it can be assumed that ginseng has sleep-promoting effect in humans. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Korean red ginseng on change of sleep architecture in humans. Methods: A total of 20 healthy young males with regular sleep and wake habits and without any psychiatric nor cognitive problems were selected based on review of sleep questionnaires and sleep diaries they completed followed by an interview with a board-certified psychiatrist. The subjects were randomly assigned to red ginseng or placebo for 2 weeks of trial. The total daily dose of ginseng was 4,500 mg. The polysomnographic recordings were made at baseline and at 2 weeks after. The effects of red ginseng and placebo on sleep were assessed by comparing the changes in polysomnographic variables between the two groups. Results: A total of 15 subjects, 8 from red ginseng group and 7 from placebo group, were included to undergo polysomnographic procedures. The red ginseng group showed tendencies to increase stage 3 sleep (p=0.087) and to decrease stage 2 sleep (p=0.071) from the baseline compared with the placebo group. Conclusion: Korean red ginseng tends to increase deep sleep and decrease shallow sleep. Our result is in line, at least in part, with previous findings that Korean red ginseng increased total and NREM sleep in rats. Further studies with higher ginseng dosage, larger sample size and longer trial duration should be conducted to confirm the sleep stabilizing and balancing effects of Korean red ginseng.

문제 정의
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Korean red ginseng on change of sleep architecture in humans.
제안 방법
All subjects had regular sleep and wake habits and had neither psychiatric disorders nor cognitive problems. For assessment of subjective sleep quality, the subjects completed Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI), Athens Insomnia Scale(AIS) and Epworth Sleepiness Scale(ESS) in addition to sleep questionnaires and sleep diaries. During 2 weeks of trial, they were advised to maintain their usual sleep-wake habits and were instructed to refrain from medications and excessive alcohol.
The subjects were randomly assigned to red ginseng or placebo group and were administered red ginseng or placebo accordingly for 2 weeks. The total daily dose of ginseng was 4,500 mg；1,500 mg were administered 3 times a day.
대상 데이터
During this period, 3 of the participants wanted to be dropped out of the trial and 2 others were excluded being suspected of a sleep disorder after first polysomnographic recording. As a result, only 15 participants were included. All volunteers signed informed consent prior to entering the study.
데이터처리
For comparison of demographic variables between the two groups, the independent t-test was performed using SPSS for Windows. Inter-group comparisons of changes in polysomnographic variables were assessed by means of repeated measure analysis of variance(ANOVA).

All statistical analyses were two-tailed, and the level of statistical significance was set at p<0.
성능/효과
0 g/day. From this, it might be inferred that the dosage we used in this study was too low to reach statistically significant results but only showed a trend toward increased deep sleep. Quite contrary to what is expected, the total sleep time decreased in red ginseng group.
In conclusion, the result of current study suggests that Korean red ginseng tends to increase deep sleep and decrease shallow sleep. Further studies, well-designed clinical trials with higher ginseng dosage, larger sample size and longer trial duration should be conducted to confirm the sleep stabilizing and balancing effects of Korean red ginseng.
