Objectives : The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical application of Korean Traditional treatment to psychogenic torticollis patient who has panic disorder as underlying disease. Methods : Herb medicine used in this study are Heosu-san(Huishou-san) which is previously used for torticollis in several studies, Guibi-tang(Guipi-tang) and Gamiondam-tang(Jiaweiwendan-tang) which are frequently used for phychological disease. Also, physical therapy and aroma therapy were practiced which basically stretches and relaxes muscles around cervical muscles. Self exercise of cervical muscles was carried out during acupuncture. Results : After the comprehensive treatment, the clinical symptoms of the patient were improved. Conclusions : It is suggested that oriental medical treatment are effective in psychogenic torticollis.

Meeting 21th century's globalization info-age, as well as material interchange between the country, comings and going of people and the stream of capital, the transmission of information are consisting vigorously. The interchange of Human and material, which pass over frontier, becomes important stepping-stone that can make run rich life to us. The interior of a country in staying foreigners are increasing. But, Actually Policing is short of police-educations and police-training. In accordance with in studies are check up point that policing for a change in foreigners for the sake.

Q-switched Waveguide $CO_{2}$ laser using polygon mirror were constructed and their output characteristics were measured. Waveguide was made of the beryllium oxide tube of inner diameter of 2 mm, outer diameter of 20 mm, and length of 200 mm. A flat ZnSe output coupler of 80% reflectivity was placed on the 9 mm distance from the end of the waveguide. Convex lens was used to reduce the coupling loss between the polygon mirror and the waveguide. The polygon mirror was located behind of convex lens. With this condition, continuous output of the laser were measured as 1.2 W. In the Q-switched mode. pulse width 120 ns were measured with rotational speed 7,559 RPM. and peak power of up to 250 W. 250 W.

A small signal gain coefficient of Nd:glass was measured and a cavity-dumped laser was constructed. To measure the small signal gain coefficient, we constructed a resonator consisting of Nd:glass, Pockels cell, polarizing beam splitter. The measured small signal gain coefficient was $0.088 cm_{-1}$ when the input energy was 100 J and the round-trip internal loss of the resonator was 56%. The cavity-dumped laser was constructed using Nd:glass. 2 m radius of curvature HR-mirrors, Pockels cell, polarizinig beam splitter and $\lambda/4$ plate. The output energy of cavity-dumped laser was 0.85 J at 140 J input energy and the laser pulse width was 8 ns.s 8 ns.

The dynamic behaviour of a four-span continuous girder railway bridge subjected to multiple support excitations is investigated using the response spectrum method. Small-amplitude oscillations and linear-elastic material behaviour are assumed. Soil-structure interaction effects are disregarded and only the out-of-plane response of the bridge is considered. The results of the response spectrum analysis are compared with those from a time history analysis. Different combination rules for the superposition of modal maxima as well as supports are employed, such as square-root-of-sum-squares, double sum and p-norm methods.

Background: Spasmodic torticollis is a disorder that is described by sustained muscle contractions causing repetitive and twisting movements, and abnormal postures in a single body region. The purpose of this case is to describe the manual therapy for a patient with spasmodic torticollis. Methods: The patient was a 64 years old man with an 3 month history of left side laterocollis spasmodic torticollis. No known genetic history or trauma. Prior to intervention, his score on the Western Spasmodic Torticollis Rating Scale (TWSTRS) severity score was 24, disability score was 20, pain score was 11. There is a noticeable distinction between left and right side cervical range of motion. The intervention consisted of manual therapy (MET, PNF) 3 times per week for the treatment during 4 weeks. Results: After intervention for 4weeks, his TWSTRS score and range of motion was improved quite a bit before therapeutic exercise. But symptoms are not improving sufficiently fast. Conclusions: Manual therapy is that MET and PNF is effective in improving for patient had spasmodic torticollis with laterocollis of neck.

Purpose: This study was to evaluate effects of myofascial release therapy for newborns and infants with congenital torticollis. Methods: In a two month period, thirty-six newborns and infants diagnosed with congenital muscular torticollis received treatment thirty times; then divided into a myofascial release group and stretching group. Crying frequency was used to measure the amount of crying time during treatment. Ultrasonography was used to measure the size of fibromatosis. Physical examinations were used to measure the degree of head tilting and rotation. Results: The results were as follows: 1. Crying frequency was significantly decreased in myofascial degree group. 2. The size of fibromatosis was not significantly decreased in ultrasonography. 3. Head tilt was significantly decreased in myofascial release group. 4. Rotation was not significantly increased in myofascial release and control group. Conclusion: The above results suggest that myofascial release therapy is helpful decreasing head tilt, crying frequency, and increasing head rotation.

The purpose of this study is to compare the outcomes of manual stretching treatment with those of motor development and positioning physical therapy (MDPPT) for congenital muscular torticollis (CMT). This study was designed to be randomized controlled trials and to evaluate the outcomes of 43 consecutive patients with CMT who were first seen when they were average 26 days old. Before treatments, the patients were unintentionallv classified into two clinical groups along with the treatment methods. Among the 43 patients, 22 were classified to the manual stretching group and 21 to the MDPPT group. By means of independent t-test on the result. the duration of treatment according to methods was not significantly different in two groups (p>.05). The duration of treatment in accordance with head tilt level was not significantly different in two groups (p>.05). There was change of mass diameter, between at the beginning day of treatment and after treatment in manual stretching group with a strong positive linear correlation (p=.000, r=.734), but slightly positive linear correlation in MDPPT group. The result of this study indicates that two therapeutic methods make little difference in effectiveness.

The purposes of this study is to survey the clinical findings of congenital muscular torticollis. The subjects were 44 congenital muscular torticollis patients who were treated at physical therapy department of rehabilitation medicine, presbyterian medical center during the period Jan. Dec. 1991 The results were as follows : 1. Patients were evenly divided by gender(22 bodys, 22 girls). Left-sided involvement was found in 27 cases$(61.4\%)$, and right side in 17 cases$(38.6\%)$. 2. Abnormal delivery was 29 cases$(65.9\%)$. Those included resarean section, breech presentation with vaginal delivery and difficulty delivery. 3. Most of torticollis were primipara infant 33 cases$(75\%)$ 4. Associated congenital anomalies were noted in 12 cases, the most common cases were central co-ordination disturbance. 5. Patients was most commonly referred form the department of pediatrics. 6. Sternocleidomastoid fibrotic nodules were noted in 32 cases$(72.7\%)$. 7. Four cases had excision of the sternocleidomastoid fibrotic nodules in infancy and average at which operation was twelve months of life(range from nine months to fourteen months). 8. Facial asymmetry was noted in 13 cases at the begining of treatment, and the asymmetry was corrected after treatment in 10 cases. 9. The average duration of treatment was 3 months when the treatment was started in 3 weeks old. 10. The result was good in 22 cases$(50\%)$, fair in 12 Cases$(27.3\%)$.

In the oriental medicine, the biological mechanism and pathogenic change have been based on the meridian. A Liver channel of those belong to the wood in the five element system, the Leg channel of the twelve primary channels, Absolute Yin(厥陰) in the three Yin channels and connect with Liver organ. Through the study on a liver channel, the results were as follows. Leg Absolute Yin is indicated for disease affecting the lower abdomen, uro-genital system, knee and thigh. Symptons associated with mind regulation system : hypochondria, a feeling of restlessness and the deficiency of Liver Yin. Symptons associated with disease of Absolute Yin.
