六個研究方向
一、醫學工程研究
  從1988年開始實驗用電腦程式的創作,首先獲得陽明大學生理學研究所的採用 (Lee et al., 1994)。之後進一步從事儀器電路的設計。譬如1996年設計的心電訊號擷取器,獲得台灣 (Kuo, 1999) 與美國專利 (Kuo, 2002),衍生數篇研究論文 (Kuo et al., 1999; Yang et al., 2000; Kuo and Yang, 2002; Wang et al., 2002; Yang et al., 2002; Liu et al., 2003; Chen et al., 2001; Yang et al., 2001; Fu et al., 2003; Chen et al., 2004),並與一家生技公司開發商用機型 (www.wegene.com.tw),獲得經濟部之國家生技品質獎,之後通過衛生署之醫療儀器認証。其它已公開 (Lee et al., 2003) 與未公開的專利與技術則不再贅述。這方面的發展除了支援本團隊實驗室的生物醫學研究外,也提供給不少同好使用。近期更集合過去所有軟、硬體醫學工程研究之大成,開發世界上最小、最省電且多功能無線生理感測系統及其各式應用,本計畫乃採用此設計進行後續各式產學開發、臨床及基礎研究。
二、血壓變異性 (BPV) 研究
  從1991年持續開發至今未曾間斷 (Kuo and Chan, 1991),比較特殊的例子包括「算命機」等 (Kuo et al., 1997a ; Yien et al., 1997)。1998年後持續新題材的研發,譬如首創BPV中的呼吸成份能代表心臟交感神經活性 (Yang and Kuo, 1999),並進而提出其作用機轉 (Yang and Kuo, 2000;Yang et al., 2008)。首先發現高血壓鼠延腦調控血壓的能力數倍於正常血壓鼠 (Kuo and Yang, 2000)。解釋BPV呼吸成份為何能反應體液多寡的生理機轉 (Lai et al., 2003)。以中文寫一篇論文交待這方面的研究 (Yang and Kuo, 2003)。2005年接受國立中國醫藥研究所的委託,進行脈診儀之改良工作,希望將中醫與西醫的技術整合與推廣,其成果已寫成專利,並有研究成果投稿中。
三、心率變異性 (HRV) 研究
  從1996年後採用歐美公認的方法進行分析工具的建立,並進行人體與動物研究。1997年後持續新題材的開發,與陽明大學公衛所合作,建立全球先驅的正常人資料庫,清楚呈現年齡與性別的影響 (Kuo et al., 1999),這篇論文後來受到廣泛的引用,並被歐洲學者視為重要的發現 (http://www.guidant.com/hf-contakt/vol-4/answer_5.htm)。之後對心跳動態性別差異的現象深入研究 (Kuo and Yang, 2002),這方面的成果受到美國生理學會的重視並發送新聞稿給國際媒體(http://www.the-aps.org/press/journal/release11-5-02-3.htm),而本團隊又進一步證實此性別差異的決定因素是女性荷爾蒙 (Liu et al., 2003)。提出子癲前症伴隨著心臟自律神經異常 (Yang et al., 2002) 並與神經外科合作確認HRV能反應頭部外傷的嚴重性 (Su et al., 2000);與心臟內科合作探討心律不整的機轉 (Chen et al., 2001);與復健科共同研究癲癇與腦性痲痺的病理 (Yang et al., 2002; Yang et al., 2001);與中醫科合作探討針灸的機轉 (Wang et al., 2002);與腸胃科合作開發評估胃自律神經功能的新方法 (Chen et al., 2004);與神經內科確認頸動脈手術對感壓反射的影響 (Chao et al., 2003) 與神經外科探索癲癇病人的自主神經功能變化 (Harnod et al., 2009; Harnod et al., 2008);與泌尿科探索男性功能障礙中心臟自主神經之角色 (Chen et al., 2008);與精神科探索精神用藥或治療對心臟自主神經功能的影響 (Wang et al., 2008; Lai et al., 2008)。
四、腦血流變異性研究
  從1998年開始相關論文的發表,與台北榮總腦血管病科合作,首創腦血管功能的非侵體分析方法 (Kuo et al., 1998),並進而證實其臨床重要性 (Chern et al., 1999; Hu et al., 1999)。後來這些論文受到廣泛的引用,成為此方研究的先驅。本團隊更進一步提出腦血流與血壓互動的機轉 (Kuo et al., 2003),並首度提出angiotensin Ⅱ擷抗劑能改善人體腦血管的功能 (Fu et al., 2003)。
五、睡眠研究
  由於睡眠研究必須整合工程、生理、心理與行為科學,被視為難度較高的研究。經由神經內科、生理學科及神經科學研究所共同合作,本團隊於2002年首度發表睡眠相關的論文,以自創的方法提出人體睡眠深度與自主神經功能的相關 (Yang et al., 2002),之後在大鼠重現類似的結果 (Yang et al., 2003)。以此為基礎,進一步發現高血壓大鼠雖然於清醒時和正常鼠有類同的自主神經活性,在睡眠時即呈現較強的交感神經活性 (Kuo et al., 2004a )。開發新的睡眠定量分析法,發現高血壓鼠的睡眠品質遜於正常鼠 (Kuo et al., 2004b)。為了將複雜的睡眠資料以更簡單的方式呈現,持續改良先前的方法,進一步提出一種有效研究腦波與自主神經互動的新方法 (Kuo and Yang, 2004)。2005年我們在睡眠、自主神經與高血壓互動的研究成果獲得循環學權威期刊 Circulation的青睞,並得到編審委員的專文介紹 (http://circ.ahajournals.org/cgi/content/full/112/6/786)。我們也將自主神經功能與睡醒變化的可能因果關連作一探討,了解自主神經功能變化可能是切換睡醒的重要原因之一,也提出了可能假說 (Kuo et al., 2008)。此部分研究也由於完全無線技術且無時限技術開發而達更完美階段,發現及論文陸續撰寫中。
六、雜項研究
  自1997年起擔任博士生的指導教授,開始往作育英才的方向努力。由於不少進修者是在職的醫師,如何讓他們同時兼顧職業與學業,並導引至 Translational Research,成為一個新的挑戰。為了發揮每位進修者的特色,我們開發了不少新的研究領域,包括嗓音分析 (Lee et al., 2005; Lee et al., 2006)、高壓氧與缺氧研究 (Sun et al., 2006b; Sun et al., 2006a ) 與素食研究 (Fu et al., 2006) 等,已建立初步的基礎。
六個研究特色
一、原創
  本人所有知識與技能都是在台灣學習,有關電子、電腦方面的技能都是靠不斷的自修而精進。雖然過程緩慢,但有助於達成高度的原創性,進而建立團隊在國際舞臺的特色,增加國際競爭力。
二、自製電子線路
  本人實驗室大部份的儀器是自製的,包括心電儀、腦波儀、體溫計等。除了能節省開支外,更重要的是有能力製作多樣的儀器平臺進行各類的實驗,滿足日漸繁忙的研究工作。也可以提供大量的硬體設備給國內外同好,支援整合型研究的硬體需求。
三、自製電腦程式
  本人實驗室所用的核心分析程式都是自製的,包括資料擷取、定量、頻譜分析、睡眠分期等。除了節省開支外,更重要的是能主導研究方向,免除受限於外人之苦。也能隨時修正與新增程式,以最快的速度將抽象的理論概念轉變成實驗室的分析工具,進行生物醫學應用。這方面的成果榮獲2000年中華民國資訊學會之「李國鼎」青年研究獎。
四、自創理論與制定規格
  在硬體與軟體上的自主性,我們得以設計並嘗試一些前所未有的分析理論,從1993年發表在美國生理學期刊“Special Communication”(是一個發表新方法的專欄)起,在本人主導的研究論文中即經常嘗試新的研究方法。反之,同樣的方法很少連續發表超過兩篇的論文,如此做法當然不利於論文的“量產”,但求落實一個創新突破的精神。
五、基礎與臨床整合
  醫學研究不僅是純理論的研究,必須實際上能在日常生活應用,能為病患“拔苦與樂”才能突顯其價值,所以從實驗室走向醫院是必然的過程,但這個過程通常是緩慢而艱難的。為了加快腳步,我們積極與臨床環境接觸。譬如本人曾在醫院接受住院醫師的訓練,回到教學單位後,對於前來進修的醫師皆抱以積極歡迎的態度,為每位合作的醫師訂製分析工具以利其收集病患的資料。在種種努力下,得以達到一些臨床應用的成果,而這些寶貴的經驗又有助於未來研究方向的擬定。這方面的努力曾榮獲1999年中華民國基礎神經學會之「王世濬」青年研究獎, 2004並獲選為「中華民國十大傑出青年」。
六、產學合作
  當一個研究成果通過了基礎醫學與臨床醫學的驗證後,就應進行國內與國際上的推廣,才能幫助更多的人並發揮實際上的影響力 (impact)。為了達到此目的,商品化是最有效率而且能持久的方法。我們這方面也努力吸收了一些經驗,目前與生技公司合作開發新型的醫療儀器,並成功通過衛生署醫療儀器的認証,正式在市面上流通,也獲得經濟部「國家生技品質獎」、「2006日本設計獎」及「國家生技醫療品質獎」的肯定。去年更完成一項產學合作,推出完全自創微型無線多功能生理記錄儀,並已獲美國FDA認證,其各式應用正式開始。
