There are many differences in the present conditions of Oriental Health care and the study of Sasang Constitution Medicine between in North Korea and South Korea. 1. The government of South Korea hasn't supported Oriental Medicine with administrative plans but that of North Korea has supported it positively and made efforts to systematize it. 2. The government of North Korea has considered Oriental Medicine and Western Medicine as mutual supplementary relationship and tried to harmonize them, invested human being and material resources in developing affirmative aspects of Oriental Medicine. That efforts of them made O.M of North Korea developed. 3. In North Korea, they has studied about the principles of O.M. generally in a laboratory. 4. In North Korea, only herbs nation warrant and satisfy standards and fixed orders can be circulated. 5. Because the Sasang Constitution Medicine is opposite to aspect of Materialism, they exclude that from Korean Medicine subjects. They only use them for clinical remedy. But recently, they concern Sasang Constitution Medicine more and more. So also in South Korea, we need to strengthen the political support of the government and the research of laboratory.

To study effects of wild garlic on components of lipid and protein, blood glucose level, and cholinesterase activity in rat's serum, Sprague-Dawley strain of 40 male rats are divided into 5 groups which are Normal, Control, A, B, and C group. Normal group is fed only Basal diet, and Control group is fed Basal diet and 0.5ml/day of 2.5% cholesterol solution, In addition to a diet of control group, A group is fed 25% wild garlic flour, B group 0.5ml/2day of concentratded wild garlic juice, C group 0.5ml/2day of concentrated ethanol extract of wild garlic, After 8 weesk the rats were fasted for 12 hours, and then decapitated to collect blood. The results of analysis of the rat's serum were summarized as follows, 1. Wild garlic diet, specially ethanol extract has an influence on decreasing the level of total cholesterol and blood glucose in rat's serum, 2. HDL-cholesterol and phospholipid content of rat's serum are increased by wild garlic diet. Therefore I think that wild garlic is good food for preventing development of atherosclerosis and diabetes.

In order to investigate the effect of Taeumjowetang and Herba Ephedrae on obesity-induced rats, after Taeumjowetang and Herba Ephedrae were administered by mouth, and then body-weight, serum triglyceride, total cholesterol, Obese mRNA and TNF-${\alpha}$/ mRNA were measured. The reselts were as follows ; 1. The body-weight was decresed with the statistical significance in both the Taeumjowetang and the Herba Ephedrae group as compared with the control group. 2. The quantitation of serum triglyceride was decresed with the statistical significance in both the Taeumjowetang and the Herba Ephedrae group as compared with the control group. 3. The total cholesterol was slightly decresed in both the Taeumjowetang and the Herba Ephedrae group as compared with the control group, but there was no statistical significance. 4. The manifestation of Obese mRNA and TNF-${\alpha}$/ mRNA in epidymal, retroperitoneal, mesenteric and skeletal muscle tissues were inhibited in Taeumjowetang and Herba Ephedrae group. According to the above results, Taeumjowerang and Herba Ephedrae were recognized to be helpful for the treatment of obesity.

1. Objectives The purpose of this case is to report a Taeumin, who was examined as Hwa-Byeong, received a medical treatment with Cheongsimyeonja-tang and consult of Sasang Constitutional Medicine. 2. Methods We examined this patient as Hwa-Byeong by using Hwa-Byeong Diagnostic Interview Schedule(HBDIS) and we also diagnosed a patient's mental state by using MMPI to understand a human instinct of the patient. Additionally, we used QSCC II and PSCC to distinguish a patient's Sasang Constitution. 3. Results We received a positive result by using prescription as Cheongsimyeonja-tang and consult according to a patient's Sasang Constitutional Medicine. 4. Conclusions We suggested that the patient would receive steady treatments as consult of Sasang Constitutional Medicine and medicinal therapy afterwards.

Objectives This study was aimed to develop the clinical practice guideline for Soeumin symptomatology. This was the first clinical practice guideline, which focuses on symptomatology, not disease. Methods Donguisusebowon and many articles were reviewed and examined for developing clinical practice guidelines. Among the previous guidelines, we assessed the guidelines by Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation (AGREE II). After AGREE II assessment, we chose and revised the clinical practice guideline. Results & Conclusions By researching and discussing the Soeumin symptomatology, we make the principle of the clinical practice guideline, including classification, definition, algorithm, and treatment assessing tool.

1. Objectives This Study recognize of the 17th Korean Assemblymen's Sasang Constitutional distribution and investigates Sasang Constitutional distribution of special group. 2. Methods The Questionnaire of Sasang Constitution was distributed to Korean Assemblymen's. The next, 2 persons of Sasang Constitutional Specialist interview directly, record of Korean Assemblymen's voice with PSSC and then concluded Sasang Constitution. 3. Results 1. After analysed Sasang Constitution with Questionnaire, We acquired zero person Taeyangin, sixteen persons Soyangin, nine persons Taeumin, zero person Soeumin. But, after direct interview examination, We acquired one person Taeyangin, seven persons Soyangin, twenty-two persons Taeumin, five persons Soeumin. 2. Soyangin rates was 20% practically, but Soyangin rates of amination with Questionnaire was 46%. Because Soyangin in Korean Assemblymen's expressed extrovert for oneself. 3. Taeumin constituted nineteen persons with Questionnaire, accounted for 54%. But Taeumin constituted twenty-two persons in direct interview examination, accounted for 63%. 4. Conclusions 1. In Uri Patty, Soyangin rates was 21%, Taeumin rates was 63%, Soeumin rates was 16%, Taeyangin rates was 0 %. The group of Taeyangin and Soyangin with activity and progression marked 21 %, the group of Taeumin and Soeumin with conservativeness marked 79%. 2. Grand National Parry, Soyangin rates was 14%, Taeumin rates was 64.3%, Soeumin rates was 14.3%, Taeyangin rates was 7.1 %. The group of Taeyangin and Soyangin with activity and progression marked 21.6%, the group of Taeumin and Soeumin with conservativeness marked 78.6%. 3.

1. Objectives This study was carried our to investigate the actual nutrient intake based on Sasang Constitution. 2. Subjects and Methods This study was performed with 984 adults(292 males, 692 females) aged 40 to 69, diagnosed of their Sasang constitution(1 Taeyangin, 242 Soyangin, 492 Taeumin, 249 Soeumin). Data was collected using the Semi-Quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire. The daily mean nutrient intake and the index for evaluation of quality of nutrient intake were investigated and compared among three constitutional groups(Soyangin, Taeumin, Soeumin) 3. Results and Conclusions The comparisons of the daily mean nutrient intake and the index for evaluation of quality of nutrient intake among three constitutional groups were as followings. (1) In male, the daily mean fat-intake of Taeumin was significantly more than that of Soeumin. In the ratio of car bohydrate-intake in total calorie, Soemuin was significantly higher than the other two groups, and in the ratio of fat-intake lower. %RDA of vitamin B was significantly different among groups. (2) In female, the daily mean fat-intake of Soyangin was significantly more than that of Soeumin. In the ratio of carbohydrate-intake in total calorie, Soemuin was significantly higher than Soyangin, and in the ratio of protein and fat-intake lower. In INQ of protein, Soyangin was significantly higher than Soeumin.
