Objectives : The purpose of this study is researching for possibility that Moire topography be applied in group school screening for scoliosis known school health problem, and find acceptable method of early detection and early treatment for scoliosis Methods : The authors practiced Moire topography for primary & middle school 1,895 students[male 976, female 919] in Jeonju, korea in 2001. After we distinguished students who had abnormal finding in Moire topography and then re-examined spinal X-ray analysis. The data was analysed and evaluated statistically Results : According to this research, the abnormal finding in Moire topography was 53.7% (1,018 students), and students needed X-ray re-examination were 11.2% (213 students). Students diagnosed scoliosis by X-ray re-examination were 1.8%. According to statistical analysis, interval between vertical base line of pelvis and vertical base line of neck, gap between left distance and right distance to the vertical base line of pelvis and difference of contour lines have strong correlations with deformity degree of the body surface examined by Moire. Conclusions : Following this research, throughout early detection for scoliosis by Moire topography could reduce exposure from scoliosis radiographs, and could detect trunk asymmetry that couldn't be found existing X-ray examination, so it made selecting students under observation who have bad posture possible.

관절염에 대한 스테로이드의 관절강내 주사는 전신적인 부작용 등의 위험성이 적으면서 간편하고 경제적이며 비교적 양호한 항염효과를 얻을 수 있어 단일관절의 RA 또는 퇴행성 관절염에서 활액막의 염증증상이 있을 때 또는 보존적 치료에 반응하지 않는 경우 비교적 많이 사용된다. 하지만 이러한 스테로이드요법은 여러가지 만성 질환에서 과도한 염증이나 면역반응 자체를 치료하는 것이 아니라 부수되는 이차적 증상만을 완화시켜 주기 때문에 장기간의 스테로이드제 투여는 절병의 경과를 교정 하거나 변화시키지 못하고 예후에 악영향을 미칠 수도 있다. 또한 심각한 여러 부작용들을 야기할 수도 있다. 저자는 스테로이드 관절강내 주사에 호전되지 않은 부종과 통증을 주소로 하는 슬관절염 환자에 대해, 피하 봉독요법으로 양호한 효과를 얻었으며, 또한 기존에 알려져 있는 것처럼 당뇨병환자에게서 봉독요법이 혈당치를 지속적으로 높인다는 주장에 대해 다른 결과를 경험하였으므로 문헌조사와 함께 보고하는 바이다.

The purpose of this article was to contribute to the knowledge of physiological and pathological changes of aging skeletal muscles, and of therapic method. By aging there were changes of distribution of muscle fibers, the loss of muscle mass, the loss of the number of muscle fibers, the loss of glycolysis capacity, the decrease of the oxidative enzymes and muscle vascularization in the skeletal muscles. And as a pathological change, the exhaustive maximal exercise increased oxidative stress that led to oxidative damage which were shown to be implicated in promoting aging. The property of intensity and duration exercise is important not only in keeping human health and physical fitness from oxidative stress, but also for the maintenance of well-being and quality of life.

Objective: In order to study the effect of Taping Therapy for Increasing the weight loading on Affected Leg of Hemiparesis, a clinical study was performed. Method: Tapes were applied on gluteus medius and quadriceps femoris muscle. Weight loading on the Affected Leg of Hemiparesis was measured by two digital scales at before and after, after 30 minites, after 1 hour of treatment. From each score of two scales, we calculate the percentage of Weight loading on the Affected Leg of hemiparesis. Result: (1)Case 1: Only the percentage of Weight loading measured after treatment is effectively increased(from $47.38{\pm}0.99$ to $46.36{\pm}1.2$(p<0.05)) (2)Case 2: The percentage of Weight loading measured both after treatment and after 30 minute is effectively increased(the one is increased from $10.75{\pm}0.476$ to $12.04{\pm}1.717$ and the other is increased from $10.75{\pm}0.476$ to $15.09{\pm}2.454(p<0.05)$) (3)Case 3: The percentage of Weight loading measured at all times is effectively increased. (the one after treatment is increased from $31.59{\pm}0.606$ to $29.55{\pm}2.296$. the one after 30 minutes. is increased from $31.59{\pm}0.606$ to $45.40{\pm}0.86$, from the one after 1 hour is increased from $31.59{\pm}0.606$ to $52.70{\pm}0.541$(p<0.05)) Conclusion: (1)The percentage of Weight loading measured after treatment is effectively increased (2)The percentage of Weight loading measured after 30 minutes and 1 hour is effectively increased, so it means Taping Therapy is continueously effective. (3)The percentage of Weight loading is especialy increased when the Percentage of weight loading is near 30%

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to find out the effects of Catalpa Ovata on the collagen-induced arthritis in the lewis rats. and we infere the effects of Catalpa Ovata on the rheumatoid arthritis in the human body. Methods : We investigated the effect of Catalpa Ovata on the Collagen-induced arthritis in Lewis rats via morphology, histology and serology as an experimental group, a control group, and a normal group. We feed Catalpa Ovata. only to an experimental group. Results : According to this research, the abnormal finding In Moire topography was 53.7% (1,018 students), and students needed X-ray re-examination were 11.2% (213 students). Students diagnosed scoliosis by X-ray re-examination were 1.8%. According to statistical analysis, interval between vertical base line of pelvis and vertical base line of neck, gap between left distance and right distance to the vertical base line of pelvis and difference of contour lines have strong correlations with deformity degree of the body surface examined by Moire. Conclusions : 1. The weight of an experimental group were lower than control group with statistically significant at 15 days later. 2, The paw edema volume of an experimental group were lower than control group at 10 days, 15 days later. but couldn't be found meaning. 3. The size of the tarsal joint of an experimental group were lower than control group at 5 days, 10 days, 15 days later, but couldn't be found meaning. 4. The volume of tumor necrosis factor-a at an experimental group were lower than control group with statistically significant. 5. The volume of interleukin-$1{\beta}$ at an experimental group were lower than control group with statistically significant. 6. An experimental group and a control group were showed ankylosing osteoarthritis, but an experimental group compared with a control group, alleviated In the fibrous ankylosis, destruction of articular cartilage and destruction of subchondral bony tissue. According to the above results, it might be considered that Catalpa Ovata has the suppression of the advance of the Collagen-induced arthritis and that result were presumed to bo connected with suppression of volume of the tumor necrosis $factor-{\alpha}$ and $interleukin-1{\beta}$ in the blood.

The multiple acupuncture techniques have been used to relieve the pain of lateral ankle sprain. Recently, early functional rehabilitation is emphasized in rehabilitative concepts using active ROM, facilitated proprioception, alphabet exercise and so forth. Similarly, in oriental rehabilition medicine, traditional movement technique called "Dong-Ki" has been used to relieve pain of ankle sprain. So we used "Dong-Ki" technique with SSP(silver spike point) electrotherapy transformed from alphabet exercise and evaluated the effects in method of randomized controlled trials. Methods : 27 outpatients with lateral ankle sprains were randomized into two groups : 15 samples and 12 controls. Sample group was treated with "Dong-Ki" technique(writing his name with foot) with SSP electrotherapy to relieve pain during additionally. "Dong-KI". Outcomes were measured by 10cm VAS and ankle circumference(cm). Results : In terms of VAS, Sample group had inclination of pain relieving but not significantly meaningful. In terms of ankle circumference measurement, Sample group showed significantly improved.

Dr. Lawrence H Jones developed innovative approach for the treatment of neuromuscular and musculo-skeletal disorders such as fibromyalgia, myofacial pain syndrome, any other muscle pain. This technique is called Strain/Counterstrain technique which uses effect of neuromuscular reflex for treatment of strain. First, Relieving spinal or other joint pain by passively putting the joint into its position of greatest comfort; secondly relieving pain by reduction and arrest of the continuing inappropriate proprioceptor activity. This was accomplished by markedly shortening the muscle that contains the malfunctioning muscle spindle by applying. mild strain to its antagonists. In other words, the inappropriate strain reflex is inhibited by application of counterstrain. Many other techniques have been developed for treating of muscle pain due to somatic dysfunction, but we want to introduce you to strain/counterstrain technique because this is basic concept and theory of Chum therapy for controling motor system.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is researching for correlation between Moire topography results and questionnaire which include obesity rate, height, weight, posture, pain aspect (low back pain, headache, fatigue, neck pain etc), studying posture, school attendance method, menarche. Methods : The authors practiced Moire topography and questionnaire for primary & middle school 24,419 students [male 12,843, female 11,576] in Jeonbuk, korea in 2002. After we distinguished students who had abnormal finding in Moire topography and statistically analysed the data. Results : According to this research, the abnormal finding in Moire topography results was 37.3% (9,105 students), and students needed X-ray re-examination were 3.9% (953 students). According to statistical analysis, male/female and primary/middle school students have no difference in deformity degree of the body surface examined by Moire. Height and weight have low correlation with deformity degree of the body surface examined by Moire and menarche, pain aspect have no correlation. But, school attendance method by bicycle and $90^{\circ}$upright sitting in study posture is the best way to decrease the deformity degree of the body surface examined by Moire. Conclusions : Following this research, throughout Moire topography could detect trunk asymmetry that couldn't be found existing X-ray examination, and school attendance by bicycle and $90^{\circ}$upright sitting in study posture is good for school students to prevent back deformity.

Low back pain (LBP) is a significant in today's society, with lifetime include factors associated with LBP ar reporter. Among the causes, aberration of posture may play a role in the development of LBP. Many investigators have assessed the curvature of spine in standing posture.
