본 논문은 "주역(周易)" 원도(圓道)의 기본원리(基本原理)를 이용하여 임독맥(任督脈)이 순환(循環)하는 원도(圓道)의 특징을 논한 것이다. "건(乾)은 머리가 되고,곤(坤)은 배가 된다"는 것과 "사람 몸의 음양으로 말하면 등은 양(陽)이 되고 배는 음(陰)이 된다."는 규칙에 의하여,임맥(任脈)은 음효(陰爻)에 속하고 독맥(督脈)은 양효(陽爻)에 속한다고 보면 임독(任督) 이맥(二脈)이 건곤(乾坤) 이괘(二卦)와 같으니 십이경맥(十二經脈)의 부모(父母)가 된다고 볼 수 있다. 임독(任督) 이맥(二脈)이 서로 만나는 구조는 순환하고 포괄하며 폐쇄된 원도(圓道)의 형식을 이루고 있다. 위로 향하여 순환하는 것은 이미 임맥(任脈)은 오르고 독맥(督脈)은 내려가는 (정방향의) 영기(營氣)의 순환방식이 존재할 뿐만 아니라 또한 독맥(督脈)은 오르고 임맥(任脈)은 내려가는 (반대방향의) 원기(元氣)의 순환 방식도 존재하므로 정(正)과 반(反)이 서로 혼합(混合)된 태극의 양식을 구성하고 있다. 임독(任督)은 또한 생명(生命)이 기원(起源)하는 기초(基礎)이며 곡기(穀氣) 이도(二道)의 요로(要路)이며 기기(氣機) 승강(升降)의 동력(動力)이며 삼초명문(三焦命門)의 지도리이고, 생리(生理), 병리(病理)와 양생(養生), 치료(治療) 등에 있어서 모두 십이정경(十二正經)의 강령이 된다.

Objectives : The purpose of this paper is to find the corresponding pathological situation of the Renmai(任脈), Dumai(督脈), and Chongmai(衝脈) at the Cun(寸), Guan(關), Chi(尺) pulse positions using the Qikoujiudaomai diagnostic method in order to find the pathological pattern of the Eight Extra Meridians. The pulse positions are divided into nine parts, using a three dimensional surface-middle-bottom concept. Methods : Relevant contents in classical texts such as the Maijing, Qijingbamaikao, Zabingyuanliuxizhu, Maiyijianmo were examined, along with previous studies on the topic. The findings were that the Renmai, Dumai, Chongmai examination of the Qikoujiudaomai manifested as floating, tight, firm patterns in the Cun, Guan, Chi positions. Results & Conclusions : n terms of the Renmai, the converging and fast Qi manifested in the three positions as a tight pattern; in the Dumai, the extended and scattering Qi manifested in the three positions as a floating pattern; in the Chongmai, the excessive, solid and full Qi manifested in the three positions as a firm pattern. Once the pathological qi overflows in the 12 meridians, disease happens in the Eight Extra Meridians. As such, disease in the Renmai, Dumai, Chongmai were connected to the main meridians as three branches from one root. Through this study, it could be concluded that diagnosis and acupuncture treatment through the Qikoujiudaomai method is possible.

For the purpose of experimental and clinical studies on the 14 channels and collaterals, we performed an inquiry on the anatomical mapping of neronal, circulatory and muscular networks in the human body which possibly correspond to the major pathway of Du channel and Ren channel known to be critical for overall controlling and mediating 12 regular channel connections. The theoretical background of this analysis was based on the oriental medicinal treatises which described acu-points and related anatomical informations. We suggest that rearrangement methodology for the 12 regular channels as described here may be applied to other 12 regular channels and to develop the new concept on the elucidation of the medical efficacy based on precise anatomical localization of channels and collaterals as well as the meridian points. It is proposed that interdisciplinary studies between oriental and western medicine are critical for more efficient achievement.

I studied on the dual principle the negative-positive toward 'the motion of Taijiquan'. The results are as follows. The grade of comprehension on the dual principle for the negative-positive for human-body is equal to the comprehension on Taijiquan. YeoBiSae is judged abstractly for the image of MuGeug and GiSae for the image of TaeGeug on the motion of Taijiquan progressing program. The motion of Taijiquan is divided up the extension and contraction. In the motion of Taijiquan, the extension exercises make use of positive energy and DogMaeg(독맥), the contraction exercises make use of negative energy and ImMaeg(임맥).

본 연구의 목적은 미국국립의학도서관(NLM)의 Unified Medical Language System(UMLS)에 한의학의 용어를 등재하는 것이다. 1차 등재 대상으로 한국한의학연구원(KIOM)에서 진행중인 한의학 용어 정제 연구 결과물 중 임(任) 독맥(督脈)과 12정경(正經)에 속하는 360개의 경혈명(經穴名)의 Concept Unique Identify(CUI)를 선정하였다. UMLS Knowledge Source Server (UMLSKS)의 메타시소러스 검색을 통해 UMLS 내 경혈(經穴)용어에 대한 terminology정보를 수집, 분석하였다. 이를 바탕으로 용어간 개념 비교를 통해 UMLS의 경혈(經穴)용어와 KIOM의 경혈(經穴)용어를 매핑하였다. 마지막으로 Rich Release Format(RRF)로 데이터를 저장하고, Unicode Transformation Format-8 (UTF-8)로 인코딩하여 NLM으로 송부하였다. NLM에서 용어 등재에 대한 적합성 여부를 판별한 후 2010AB버젼에 "TKMT2010"이라는 소스명으로 한글로 된 한의학 용어가 최초로 UMLS에 등재되었다. 향후 UMLS와 같은 국제표준의학용어와 연계를 통해 한의학 용어가 다양한 의학용어체계와 상호호완성을 확보하고 표준화, 세계화할 수 있도록 지속적인 연구가 필요하다.

The present study is to evaluate the performances of flow velocity and wall shear stress in the stenosed coronary artery using human in vivo hemodynamic Parameters and computer simulation. Initial and follow-up coronary angiographics in the patients with angulated coronary stenosis are performed. Follow-up coronary angiogram demonstrated significant difference in the percent of diameter in the stenosed coronary between two groups ($Group\;1:\;40.3{\%},\;Group\;2:\;25.5{\%}$). Flow-velocity wave obtained from in vivo intracoronary Doppler ultrasound data is used for the boundary condition for the computer simulation. Spatial and temporal variations of flow velocity vector and recirculation area are drawn throughout the selected segment of coronary models. The WSS of pre- and post-intracoronary stenting are calculated from three-dimensional computer simulation. Then negative shear stresses area on 3D simulation we noted on the inner wall of the post-stenotic area before stenting. The negative WSS is disappeared after stenting. High spatial and temporal WSS before stenting fell into within physiologic WSS after stenting. This finding was prominent in Model 2. The present study suggest that hemodynamic forces exerted by pulsatile coronary circulation termed WSS might affect on the evolution of atherosclerosis within the angulated vascular curvature. The local recirculation area which has low or negative WSS, might lead to progression of atherosclerosis.

The human body consists of the twelve main meridians and the eight extra meridians including Dogmaek-Gyeong and Immaek-Gyeong. This study is on twenty-eight acupuncture points Dogmaek-Gyeong and twenty-four acupuncture points Immaek-Gyeong among the eight extra meridians. It is very important to know the accurate acupuncture points, which is the fundamental subject in the Oriental Medicine. From now on they have expressed in Chinese letters and old anatomical terms, acupuncture points are difficult and confused to learn. In order to understand acupuncture points easily, they are translated into Korean anatomical terms focused on osteology in this study. Dogmaek-Gyeong is the meridian of this vessel run along the posterior meridian line of the body. The boundary commences at the coccyx, mounts the length of the vertebral column, contours the skull of the vertex along the philtrum to terminate upon the upper gum. It has twenty-eight acupuncture points. Immaek-Gyeong is the meridian of this vessel run along the anterior meridian line of the body. The boundary commences at the perineum mounts the pubic symphysis along the umbilicus, mandible and the terminates at concave of the lower lip. It has twenty-four acupuncture points.

Objectives : Accumulation point is a useful acupoint for acute pain diseases. Among the eight extra meridians, only four (Yin Heel, Yang Heel, Yin Link, Yang Link vessel) have accumulation point and the others (Governor, Conception, Thoroughfare, Belt Vessel) do not. However, there is no explanation why these four meridians do not have it. So, the authors researched the literature to look for the reasons. Methods : We investigated 10 books and 1 paper about the 'accumulation point of extra meridians' using several search engines and researched reason why the other 4 meridian do not have it. Results : All of the 16 accumulation points are located on the 4 limbs. The four limbs have more Yang energy than the trunk. The governor, conception, thoroughfare, and belt vessels do not flow in the limbs. It seems that there is no acupoint located on deep gap enough to be the accumulation point among the four vessels. When it comes to the functions of these vessels, they are little related with the acute pain that is the main target of the accumulation point. Conclusions : From the results of this study, it seems to be reasonable that the four vessels do not have accumulation point.
