연합인증

연합인증 가입 기관의 연구자들은 소속기관의 인증정보(ID와 암호)를 이용해 다른 대학, 연구기관, 서비스 공급자의 다양한 온라인 자원과 연구 데이터를 이용할 수 있습니다.

이는 여행자가 자국에서 발행 받은 여권으로 세계 각국을 자유롭게 여행할 수 있는 것과 같습니다.

연합인증으로 이용이 가능한 서비스는 NTIS, DataON, Edison, Kafe, Webinar 등이 있습니다.

한번의 인증절차만으로 연합인증 가입 서비스에 추가 로그인 없이 이용이 가능합니다.

다만, 연합인증을 위해서는 최초 1회만 인증 절차가 필요합니다. (회원이 아닐 경우 회원 가입이 필요합니다.)

연합인증 절차는 다음과 같습니다.

최초이용시에는
ScienceON에 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 로그인 (본인 확인 또는 회원가입) → 서비스 이용

그 이후에는
ScienceON 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 서비스 이용

연합인증을 활용하시면 KISTI가 제공하는 다양한 서비스를 편리하게 이용하실 수 있습니다.

Abstract AI-Helper 아이콘AI-Helper

There are no published data on Gyeongokgo (GOK) safety or efficacy despite being commonly use. The Gyeongokgo (GOK) is commonly used in traditional Korean medicine to promote a health qi and blood, but their objective data was not sufficient in clinical field. To investigate the safety and efficacy ...

제안 방법

  • Adverse events during the trial were assessed through safety assessments and laboratory tests. All adverse reactions that occurred throughout the intervention and follow-up periods were evaluated as World Health Organization Adverse Reaction Terminology, and classified in 1-5 grades according to the Common Terminology Criteria for adverse Events (version 4.
  • Subsequently, the subjects were asked to complete a daily medication diary to assess compliance, use of other medicines, and alcohol consumption. At the end of the 4-week treatment, the subjects were again gathered, provided with identical meals, and subjected to the same questionnaire and tests as at the first visit.
  • Considering that elevated CRP can be used as an important indicator of obesity15), GOK might exert an effect on vascular health, which is in turn related to obesity and lipid metabolism. Furthermore, CRP can be used as an indicator of fatigue16), and the results of our study are consistent with a report describing a correlation between decreasing CRP and indicators of actual QOL17-19). Also, our GOK group exhibited a significant increase in TSH.
  • The probability of random allocation to the GOK group was set at 2:1 to encourage participation. Later, the subjects were gathered at a pre-designated location; provided with identical meals; and subjected to a questionnaire, hematologic tests, urinalysis, and body composition analysis. Subsequently, the subjects were asked to complete a daily medication diary to assess compliance, use of other medicines, and alcohol consumption.
  • Plasma cytokine levels including tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, interferon (IFN)-r, IL-2, and IL-10 were determined using a Milliplex MAP Human Cytokine/Chemokine Magnetic Bead Panel (Millipore Corp., Billerica, MA, USA) following the manufacturer’s kit-specific protocols.
  • , Tokyo, Japan). Routine urinalysis was performed on a US-3100Rplus analyzer (Eiken Chemical Co. Ltd., Tokyo, Japan) in chronological order, and urine sediments were subjected to automated morphologic examination using a laser-based fluorescent flow cytometer, UF-1000i (Sysmex Co., Hyogo, Japan). For cytokine analysis, plasma samples were collected using EDTA, centrifuged, and stored at -80℃.
  • . Study subject QOL was assessed based on FSS and SF-36 scores before and after the study period. Both questionnaires can be viewed in the Appendix.
  • Ten different items were evaluated, consisting of the eight individual items: PF (physical functioning), RP (role limitations – physical), BP (bodily pain), GH (general health), VT (vitality), SF (social functioning), RE (role limits – emotional), and MH (mental health), in addition to the physical component summary (PCS = PF + RP + BP + GH) and mental component summary (MCS = VT + SF+ RE + MH).
  • The SF-36 was administered to assess QOL, and both intra- and inter-group analyses were performed. Ten different items were evaluated, consisting of the eight individual items: PF (physical functioning), RP (role limitations – physical), BP (bodily pain), GH (general health), VT (vitality), SF (social functioning), RE (role limits – emotional), and MH (mental health), in addition to the physical component summary (PCS = PF + RP + BP + GH) and mental component summary (MCS = VT + SF+ RE + MH).
  • , impaired fasting glucose, impaired glucose tolerance, or diabetes); 5) steroid or hormonal drug use less than 1 month before the start of the study; 6) pregnancy or breastfeeding; and 7) any abnormal findings that might possibly have impacted the study results. The researchers first confirmed any matters that contravened the clinical trial conditions via a phone call or visit to each subject. Following this, a total of 32 subjects (16 male and 16 female) underwent screening including hematologic tests, urinalysis, electrocardiography, and a chest x-ray.
  • This study was a 4-week-long, single-center, subject-assessor-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel, randomized clinical trial. Before starting the study, approval was granted by the Catholic Kwandong University International St.

대상 데이터

  • Five participants (four in the GOK group and one in the control group) exhibited levels of AST, ALT, GGT, or total bilirubin that were above the standard range after the treatment period. We found that these participants had above average alcohol intake during the study.
  • The researchers first confirmed any matters that contravened the clinical trial conditions via a phone call or visit to each subject. Following this, a total of 32 subjects (16 male and 16 female) underwent screening including hematologic tests, urinalysis, electrocardiography, and a chest x-ray. The 29 subjects who passed the screening were randomly allocated by the random number table to a GOK treatment group of 20 subjects (9 males and 11 females), or a placebo control group of 9 subjects (4 males and 5 females).
  • Of the 32 subjects originally enrolled in this study, 3 were excluded due to abnormal hematologic findings during screening, and the remaining 29 subjects were included in the final analysis. There were no significant differences in general characteristics between the two groups(Table 1).
  • This study was also registered as KCT0002652 in Clinical Research inform action Service(CRIS). Subjects were physically and mentally healthy males and females aged 20 to 40 who had seen one of the clinical trial flyers posted in the hospital between March and April 2015 and had willfully consented to participate(Fig. 1). The following exclusion criteria were applied: 1) underlying diseases including hypertension, hepatitis, or tuberculosis; 2) a history of endocrinologic or hormone disorders; 3) a history of hepato-pancreato-biliary or renal disorders; 4) a history of impaired blood glucose regulation (i.

데이터처리

  • Statistical analyses were performed by a statistician who was blinded to the subjects’ status. We used a paired t-test or Wilcoxon signed-rank test for changes within the groups and an independent two-sample t-test or Mann-Whitney U test (Wilcoxon rank sum test) for inter-group differences following treatment. All statistical analyses were performed using SAS v9.

All adverse reactions that occurred throughout the intervention and follow-up periods were evaluated as World Health Organization Adverse Reaction Terminology, and classified in 1-5 grades according to the Common Terminology Criteria for adverse Events (version 4.03).
