Objectives : This study aimed to evaluate the hypoglycemic, hepatoprotective, and nephroprotective effects of 'Saengjinyanghyul-tang($Sh\={e}ngj\={i}ny\v{a}ngxu\`{e}-t\={a}ng$ : SJYHT)' in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic SD rat model. Methods : SJYHT extracts were once a day dosed for 28 days at a dosage 1000, 500, and 250mg/kg/5ml from 25 days after STZ-dosing, and the changes on blood glucose levels, liver and kidney weight, serum AST, ALT, BUN and creatinine levels were observed with histological changes on the liver and kidney. Results : Increased blood glucose levels, and diabetic hepatopathy & nephropathy including increased serum AST, ALT, BUN and creatinine levels, histological changes after STZ-dosing were dose-dependently reduced by SJYHT extract-dosing. Conclusions : 'SJYHT' water extracts have favorable hypoglycemic, hepatoprotective, and nephroprotective effects on the STZ-induced diabetic SD rats.

The livers of 300 cases of Korean native cattle which were collected at slaughted house in Pusan were examined by gross and histopathological means to study patterns of pathological changes of the organ. 1. The most dominated lesion of the liver was those of fascioliasis showing incidence rate as 907 per cent of inspected cattle. 2. On age distribution of the fascioliasis lesion in the liver, higher incidence was seen in animals that were from 6 to 9 years of age. 3. Significant changes of the hepaticparenchyma caused by immature flukes included thrombosis, migrational tracks such as hemorrhagic foci with massive eosinophilia and hepatic necrosis. The changes of chronically infected livers of cattle were recognized as proliferation of periductal eosinophilic granuloma of various degrees in each portal triad. And this easential cholangiohepatitis might develop into multiple focal cirrhosis or diffuse perilobular cirrhosis. 4. Most cases with gross lesion of swelled bile ducts on visceral surface of the liver showed histological evidences of fascioliasis lesion throughout hepatic lobes.

Purpose: This study was conducted to examine the experience of nurse in comprehensive nursing care. Methods: Experiential data collected from 9 nurses through in-depth interviews. Participants were selected from nurses working in the comprehensive nursing care unit at general hospital. The main question was "Can you describe your experience in the comprehensive nursing care unit?" All interviews were recorded and transcribed, then analyzed using Colaizzi's method. Results: Nine themes were derived from the analysis: 'Practice nursing care', 'Feel thankful of the client', 'Difficulty in nursing due to absence of patients' guardian', 'Tired of over-demanding patient and distrust of guardian', 'Confusion regarding one's identity as a nurse', 'Not enough to support system', 'Insufficient pre-training for nurse and client', 'Requirement of work establishment for nurse and nurse aid', 'Concerns about low rewards and high safety accidents'. Conclusion: As a comprehensive nursing service, the nurses provided total patient care, and patient satisfaction and expression of appreciation increased. However, disadvantages were identified, such as patients' excessive needs, communication difficulties, lack of support systems, low compensation, and a high number of safety accidents. Therefore, systematic comprehensive nursing will be achieved if these shortcomings are addressed.

The primary purpose of this study is to examine the buffering effect of social welfare services on the relationship between the level of older persons' impairment and burden experienced by the family caregivers. It also assessed the level of caregiving burden as well as the effect of both older person's impairment and the characteristics of the caregivers on burden. The survey data collected from 150 community residing family caregivers was used for analyses. Findings are as follows. First, the caregivers are more burdened in the deterioration of mental health, scarce time for oneself, and the suffering of social life than in other areas of burden. Second, the more severe the physical and the mental impairment of the elder, the more burden the caregivers experience. The caregivers' characteristics such as the worse mental health, the lower level of attachment to the elder, the longer caregiving hours are also related to the higher level of caregiving burden. Third, the caregivers' use of adult day care and respite care services buffer the relationship between the level of impairment of older persons and the caregiving burden. However, social work counselling, visiting nurse, homemaker services do not have such buffering effects. Among informal support, instrumental support buffers the relationship between the elder's physical impairment and burden, while emotional support buffers the relationship between the elder's mental impairment and burden. According to the results, implication for social welfare services and practice methods for the family caregivers was discussed.

The aim of the present study is to determine clinical efficacy and adverse reaction of yugan-tang. We compared symptoms and liver function test results of 160 patients with damp-heat type liver disease in before and after taking yugan-tang. The patients took 200ml yugan-tang two times daily for three months. Then we analyzed these datas statistically. The overall therapeutic effect was "markedly improved" in 70 of 160 patients (43.75%) and "improved" in 75 of 160 patients (46.88%). yugan-tang markedly improved damp-heat type liver disease, especially jaundice, abdominal distention, hypochondriac pain, nause, vomiting and anorexia. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) level and total bilirubin (TBIL) level were within normal limits at baseline. But albumin-globulin ratio (A/G) level was not changed markedly. I think that yugan-tang is worth applying widely to clinic.
