1. Background and Purpose: I intended to understand the medical and pharmacological theory of Taeumin, through a study of the process through which Lee Je-ma discovered the Interior-Overheated-Disease of Taeumin and created the prescriptions for it. 2. Methods: I studied and analized the change in the medical and pharmacological theory, through a historical study on the quotations and prescriptions of "DongYi Soose Bowon". 3. Results: Through a literature study I could find that in the existing Oriental Medicine before Lee Je-ma, the difference of the Liver Febrile Disease of Taeumin and the Stomach Febrile Disease of Soyangin were recognized, and the prescriptions of the two diseases were a little distinguished, but the medical theories of those were not distinguished at all. And I found that the Liver Febrile Disease of Taeumin shows the pain in the eyes and the throat, and drying of the nose due to interior dry and heat, so it is different from the Stomach Febrile Disease of Soyangin that shows irritation of fever, headache, and the trouble in passing feces and urine. Also I could know that Radix Puerariae, Rhizoma Cimicifugae, Rhizoma Ligustici, Radix Angelicae Dahuricae, and Radix et Rhizoma Rhei are Taeumin's medicines because these medicines had been used for Taeumin's syndromes, and that Radix Scutellariae, Radix Platycodi, Semen Raphani, and Fructus Gleditsiae are Tae-Eum-In's medicines because these medicines are known as acting for lung.

The present study was performed to investigate antioxidant activities of Korean edible wild extracts. In water and methanol extracts of edible wild plants, total polyphenol content of water and methanol extracts ranged 4.6~183.8 and 8.2~270.1 mg/g, respectively. Radical scavenging activity against DPPH and ABTS radicals was observed to be high in Lysimachia barystachys, Aceriphyllum rossii, Securinega suffruticosa, Sedum kamtschaticum, and Pedicularis resupinata. Pedicularis resupinata, Securinega suffruticosa, Patrinia villosa, and Solidago virga-aurea var. asiatica showed effective SOD-like activity. There was significant correlation between polyphenol content and DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities, and SOD-like activity. Plant extracts such as Pedicularis resupinata, Securinega suffruticosa, Rhapontica uniflora, Lysimachia barystachys, and Aceriphyllum rossii had higher polyphenol content, radical scavenging, and SOD-like activity. These results indicate that Korean edible wild plants may be useful as potential antioxidant sources for improving human antioxidant defense system.

PURPOSE: This study examined the effects of a horse riding simulator, gym ball, and McKenzie exercises on back pain and static balance. METHODS: Among 30 participants with chronic back pain and more than 5 points of ODI, 28 participants were selected. Groups of performing either horse riding, gym ball, or McKenzie were chosen randomly to work out two times a week for six weeks. The static balance was measured using a gym plate and the degree of pain was measured by the VAS and K-ODI. RESULTS: When each exercise was applied to back pain patients, the VAS was changed in all three groups but only in the gym-ball exercise group. The K-ODI varied in all three groups but not in the gym-ball exercise group, In the anterior - posterior static balance, all three groups showed changes, but only the riding exercise group was not significant. In the left-right static balance, all three groups were significant. CONCLUSION: This study showed that six-week exercise for back pain patients was effective in improving back pain and balance ability. Continuous exercise minimizes the risk of recurrence and is effective in preventing and treating back pain.

Here, we present an updated checklist based on voucher specimens of vascular plants for Gasan Mt. which is located in Chilgok-gun, Gyeongsangbuk-do, South Korea. The list includes 322 taxa in 212 genera and 81 families of vascular plants, of which 14 are endemic, six are rare plants, 48 are floristic target species, and 14 are considered naturalized in Korea. Based on voucher specimens, Gasan Mt. was the southern limit of Cimicifuga heracleifolia var. bifida Nakai and Iris odaesanensis Y. N. Lee on the Korean peninsula. Moreover, we confirmed a hybrid plant deriving from two Iris parents, I. minutoaurea Makino and I. odaesanensis, in a mountain fortress of Gasan Mt. We also present online databases including 325 voucher specimens deposited at the Korea Institute of Oriental Medicine (KIOM; http://oasis.kiom.re.kr/herblib). This study has great significance as the first floristic study of Korean plants sharing virtual specimens online.

산채는 사람에 의하여 개량 육성되어 논밭에서 재배하고 있는 농작물과 달리 자연 그대로 산야에서 자생하는 식물 중 식용으로 가능한 것을 말한다. 산채류의 이용형태별 생산가능시기는 3~5월의 생채 생산과 6~7월의 건채 생산으로 소비자의 기호에 부합하는 신선 생채의 소비한계는 제한되어 있기 때문에 재배유형별 생채 수량검정을 통해 수확시기 연장 및 재배품목을 다양화 시킬 필요 있다. 따라서 본 시험은 재배가능한 산채류를 수집하고 기능성 분류를 통한 꾸러미 산채 조합을 구성하였고 조합된 산채류 들에 대한 생산성 검정을 위해 해발 500m의 전라북도 농업기술원 허브산채시험장에서 2018년 5월 말 갯기름나물 등 15 종을 정식하여 각 작물의 생육특성, 수확한계기 등을 조사하였다. 기능성 분류 결과 항당뇨, 항고지혈증, 항비만, 항혈전, 항염증 총 5가지 조합을 구성하였다. 산채류별 광합성특성 조사결과 돌단풍, 개미취, 섬쑥부쟁이, 질경이, 갯기름나물, 참취의 적정광량은 600~800 μmole/m²/s이였고 눈개승마, 어수리, 참당귀는 400~500 μmole/m²/s, 곤달비, 곰취, 단풍취는 200~300 μmole/m²/s이였다. 기능성 꾸러미 산채류 지상부 생육특성 결과 갯기름나물, 질경이, 참취, 곤달비 섬쑥부쟁이 등이 생육이 우수하였다. 수량성은 섬쑥부쟁이 1,694.6kg/10a로 가장 높았으며, 갯기름나물 1,673.4kg/10a, 참취 1,521.3kg/10a, 질경이 1,398.3kg/10a, 곤달비 1,300.6kg/10a 등이 높았다. 반면 돌단풍 111.8kg/10a, 단풍취 69.5kg/10a, 우산나물 25.4kg/10a로 아주 낮은 수량성을 보였다. 산채류 출현기는 산마늘이 2월 7일로 가장 빨랐으며 대부분 산채류들이 2월 11일에서 2월 25일에 출현하였고 단풍취, 우산나물이 3월 6일로 늦은 출현기를 보였다. 기능성 꾸러미 생채 수확가능 시기는 3월 상순부터 6월 하순까지 가능하였고 수확기간은 섬쑥부쟁이 117일, 두메부추 109일, 어수리 102일, 참당귀 102일로 길었고 돌단풍, 산마늘, 눈개승마, 우산나물은 생채 수확가능 시기가 짧았다. 건나물 수확기간은 돌단풍, 눈개승마는 3월부터 6월까지 가능하였고, 대부분의 산채류들이 5월부터 10월까지고 산마늘과 우산나물은 건나물을 생산할 수 없었다. 산채류 기능성 꾸러미별 생채 조합 가능 시기는 항당뇨는 3월 중하순, 항고지혈증은 3월 중순, 항비만은 3월 하순, 항혈전 3월 하순, 항염증은 3월 중하순으로 조사되었다.

To assess the physiological effects of Aruncus dioicus var. kamtschaticus extract on cytoxicity of a neuronal cell line, antioxidant activity, and neuroprotection against intensive glucose-induced oxidative stress were quantitated. Compared to the other fractions, the ethyl acetate fraction of Aruncus dioicus var. kamtschaticus (EFAD) showed the highest total phenolics and flavonoids. The 2,2-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) assay and malondialdehyde inhibitory effect test confirmed the superior antioxidant activity of EFAD. Moreover, EFAD also decreased the intracellular ROS level and suppressed neuronal cell death against intensive glucose- or $H_2O_2$-induced oxidative stress. Additionally, assessment of ${\alpha}$-glucosidase and acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activities revealed that EFAD was an effective inhibitor of ${\alpha}$-glucosidase and acetylcholinesterase. Finally, high-performance liquid chromatography analysis identified caffeic acid as the main ingredient of EFAD. Overall, these results suggest that the EFAD is a good natural source of biological compounds that counteract hyperglycemic neuronal defects.
