• 慢性肝病在台灣是一個極具挑戰性的臨床議題。肝纖維化的多重病原性是造成病患死亡 率增加的原因，而且肝纖維化往往會發展成肝癌。我們最近利用國民營養調查資料庫 (NAHSIT 2005-2008)分析國人血中鐵營養值標與代謝症候群的相關性.在全人口的分析 中，我們發現校正了血清發炎指標以及飲食的營養指標後, serum ferritin (鐵蛋白質) 高於最大三等分位的族群，得到代謝性症候群的危險對比值超過 1.6 倍. 目前並不清楚 過量的鐵蛋白質為何與代謝症候群的發生率有關。肝臟為重要的儲鐵器官但是臨床研究 也顯示過量的鐵質沉積與肝纖維化及肝癌有極大的相關性。血清中鐵蛋白質為反映體內 儲存鐵的生化質標。但是,發炎因子也會造成血清中鐵蛋白質的異常增加。證據顯示發炎 因子可以調控鐵蛋白質的基因表現量。但是慢性發炎如何造成鐵蛋白質代謝異常(組職 內沉積及釋放)? 血清中的鐵蛋白質又有何生理功能? 隨著國人代謝症候群及脂肪肝發生率的年輕化,這次研究的主題是以老鼠初代星狀肝細 胞來分析鐵蛋白質對內質網壓力機轉與肝纖維化的影響: 相關研究的主要目標為: 1. 釐清鐵蛋白質(serum ferritin)過量是否會造成星狀細胞內質網壓力增加與活化? 2. 何種鐵質(ferric, ferrous, ferritin, Apoferritin)較易增加內質網壓力? 3. 找出何種內質網壓力的轉錄因子 (ATF6,ATF4, XBP1 and CHOP)受到鐵質調控? 4. 分析鐵質誘導的內質網壓力機轉與肝臟纖維化的營響

• 睡眠困擾是癌症病人最常主訴的問題之一。患有睡眠困擾之癌症病人經常同時伴隨 疲憊、憂鬱等現象發生，形成症狀群集，影響生活品質。雖然目前對於癌症病人睡眠障 礙之量性研究已多有著墨，然而對於癌症病人經歷睡眠障礙之主觀經驗之瞭解，仍相當 有限。瞭解病人經歷睡眠障礙之主觀經驗，將有助於未來睡眠評估工具之修訂。另外， 在評估癌症病人睡眠品質時，若能以簡單工具評估，會更具效率及助益。阿森斯失眠量 表(Athens Insomnia Scale, AIS) 是一個簡單的8 題問卷，廣為使用在一般失眠的病人， 在癌症病人使用上，尚未有豐富的實證資料，若能建立其在癌症病人的信效度，將可作 為一簡單篩檢癌症病人失眠的工具。 睡眠遵行日夜節律規則，日夜節律又需要光作為矯正的線索，光在癌症病人睡眠的 角色，尚未有研究證實，過去研究顯示癌症病人睡眠品質不佳與生物節律有關係。光是 重要日夜節律的線索，光療法透過褪黑激素調節，調整日夜節律週期，可能可以改善睡 眠品質。另外，由於，睡眠障礙、憂鬱、疲憊經常形成一症狀群集，光療法於改善睡眠 障礙之同時，是否亦同時改善憂鬱、疲憊及生活品質。目前，光療法在癌症病人的運用 上，付之闕如，故建立光療法於癌症病人的有效性值得探究。 本研究為三年期研究計畫，目的包括有：1.瞭解癌症個案對於睡眠困擾的主觀經驗 （第一年）。2.建立阿森斯失眠量表中文版的信效度、敏感性、特異性（第一年）。3.瞭 解癌症病人光暴露與生物節率、睡眠障礙的關係（第二年）。4.瞭解光療法對於改善癌 症病人睡眠障礙及相關症狀群集、及生活品質之成效；以及瞭解光療法影響褪黑激素之 程度（第三年）。 本研究擬以癌症住院及門診病人為對象，研究工具包括基本資料、匹茲堡睡眠品質 問卷、阿森斯失眠問卷，簡明疲憊量表，貝克憂鬱量表度、SF-36 生活品質量表、腕動 力器等。資料處理分析方式包括：內容分析、描述性統計、t 檢定、皮爾森相關、GEE (generalized estimating equations)等。 本研究之結果將可瞭解光暴露與生物節率與睡眠障礙之間的關係，並可進一步瞭解 光療法作為改善癌症病人睡眠障礙之護理措施之成效，以期，最終能藉由改善癌症病人 之睡眠品質提昇病人之生活品質。
