  • Background : Iron deficiency anemia(IDA) is a very common condition, and its underlying causes are diverse. Gastrointestinal blood loss, pregnancy, menorrhagia are known as common causes of IDA. However, especially in the IDA case of unknown origin, we must consider the culture specific cause of IDA as a possible cause of IDA. As I found an unusual cause of IDA related to a cultural behavior, I would like to report two cases of IDA occurred by negative therapy in Korea. It is possible to explain these cases by explanatory model. Case 1 : With a chief complaint of dyspnea, a 27-year-old woman visited our clinic. She had multiple treatment histories of negative therapy for her psoriasis. The blood loss during this procedure is the cause of present IDA. Case 2 : A 70-year-old man visited our clinic complaining of anorexia and dizziness. The history of treatment showed that he had an IDA 9 month ago. The IDA developed again because of repeated negative therapy after previous treatment of IDA. He has used the negative therapy intermittently to treat tinea pedis for 5 years. Conclusion : We must consider the negative therapy as a possible cause of IDA in Korea.

  • Yak-ju treatment is regarded as a new way to give a medication, and used many parts of medical field such as musculo-skeletal, aesthetic and cosmetic part. Recently I've experienced a good result by Yak-ju treatment for managing obese patient who had failed to lose his weight by conventional existing treatments comprised of herbal medicine, electro-lypolysis, negative pressure, ear acupuncture, behavior modification therapy and education for diet and exercise. This method can be recommended as a new method for curing obesity that can make up for the weak point of existing ways.

  • 부항은 열 또는 음압(陰壓)장치에 의하여 부항단지 안에 음압을 조성하여 피부에 붙임으로써 피를 뽑거나 울혈(鬱血)을 일으키며 물리적 자극을 주어 병을 치료한다. 부항으로 얻어지는 물리적인 자극은 혈액순환을 촉진하고, 죽은피를 빼냄으로써 혈관을 자극하고 그로인해 다양한 효과를 얻는다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 신장에 해당하는 명문혈을 자극하여 신장과 관련된 음성분석 요소의 변화를 측정하였다. 이를 위해 신장에 이상이 없는 피실험자 10명을 선정하고 신장에 해당하는 명문혈을 자극하기 전과 후의 음성을 수집하였다. 실험은 음성분석 요소 중 신장과 관련된 1 Formant Bandwidth를 적용하여 신장 명문혈 자극 전과 후의 변화를 측정, 분석하였다. 실험 결과, 90%의 피실험자가 값이 감소하는 현상을 보였으며, 이를 통해 명문혈 자극에 따른 신장과 음성신호와의 상관성을 분석할 수 있었다.

  • Cupping therapy has been used to extensive diseases. However, the research was yet to meridian and acupoint's change of state caused by Cupping. This study was considered a human-ripple effect by the anlaysis of meridian & acupoint's change of state. We developed the system which is keeps 30kPa Negative-pressure and stimulated on the Left Lung Meridian(LU) a halfway point between LU4 and LU5. We checked moisture and elasticity change on left/right acupoints & non-acupoints, then measured EMG Signal. We observed that moisture had little change(12.49%) and the better part of the elasticity on both sides had identified the change(64.42%). The number of the provoked acupoiunt elasticity change was more than non-acupoint. Also, elasticity change of Right side was more than Left side. We confirmed that RMS and Median Power change patterns were lower in proportional to the elastin change, but there was no significance about Median Frequency. Therefore inducing the change of elasticity and EMG signal on meridian-acupoints. Therefore, We checked the human-ripple effect Negative-pressure by the Cupping therapy.

  • This study was experienced study of one group pretest-posttest design to confirm the effects of Bu-Hang therapy on sore and the study of subjects were high-danger group of developing sore that were instituted in Chung-Book A area. The data collection was conducted 11 subjects of high-danger group on developing sore as participants agreed in study after assessing sore danger-degree of 30 subjects with institute administrator. The duration of study was carried out between March, 1999 and September, 2000. The instrumental tool of study was assessing tool of modified sore danger-degree that was based on Braden Scale(1985) by developing of Bergstorm. The subjects of study were applied on sore site or easily developing site by Geon-Hang technique, one time for one day. The assess of sore duration treatment period were measured area of sore, assessed state of skin by Bergstrom, Braden, Lanquzza & Holman(1987). The analysis of collected data were showed by frequency, percentage on demographic characteristics. And effects of Bu-Hang therapy on sore were confirmed by contrast comparison of signal-test or case studies. The results of study were described below. 1. Bu-Hang therapy effected to inhibit of developing sore and decrease of sign and symptom on sore in 11 subjects, all(P=.010). 2. Bu-Hang therapy decrease of sign and symptom on sore in 6 subjects of case studies, all(P=.031). Conclusively, Bu-Hang therapy will facilitate for nursing intervention on sore. But this study was difficult to confirm effects of Bu-Hang therapy pretest-posttest design. Therefore, Bu-Hang therapy is high enable to decrease for sore but, yet is needed to monitor affectively for nursing intervention.

  • In the treatment of hemifacial spasm, the operative methods, such as neurovascular decompression, rhizotomy etc. are the most efficacious therapy on its control. But, due to some side effects and complication, pharmacotherapy has been the first attempted by first intention of hemifacial spasm. The carbamazepine is the most commonly used agent, however it is often inefficacious in some cases, and attenuates as the time passes, engages in some symptoms, such as dizziness, nausea, vomiting, and causes an aplastic anemia, it has many deficiencies in becoming the first intention. Acupuncture is a simple, effective and conservative spasm control modality. It is so simple to use in hemifacial spasm. We had observed 3 cases of hemifacial spasm which were treated by acupuncture in Oriental clinic recently. We reported these cases and reviewed related literatures briefly. The results of treatment are as follows; The clinical conditions of spasm intensity was improved after the therapy. These results suggest that acupuncture and negative therapy be effective as the first intention in healing hemifacial spasm.
