The purpose of this study was to evaluate the inhibitory effects of Juglans regia complex extract(JCE) consisted of Juglans regia, Eucommia ulmoides, Eleutherococcus senticosus and Zingiber officinale on osteoclast differentiation. Cell toxicity test by using CCK-8, TRAP activity and TRAP positive multi-nucleated cell counting were performed to evaluate inhibitory effect on differentiation of osteoclast from bone marrow derived macrophages(BMMs) induced by receptor activator of nuclear $factor-{\kappa}B$ ligand(RANKL). As a result, JCE inhibited RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation in BMMs dose-dependently without cytotoxicity. These results suggest that JCE may have a potential role for treating bone lytic diseases such as osteoporosis.

Results & Conclusions : The results of this research showed that overall symptoms of hemiplegia in the patient were improved. According to the results, the Korean medical treatment is considered to be effective on patients of left basal ganglia infarction to treat symptoms of hemiplegia.

Foot drop due to lumbar disc herniation is perceived to be an indication for surgery. A 44-year-old male presented with motor deficit in left ankle dorsiflexion along with radiating pain and paraesthesia. Motion Style Acupuncture Therapy (MSAT) was administered on the left side every other day. Acupuncture and Chuna were performed daily. Herbal medicine was taken 3 times a day. His symptoms rapidly improved throughout treatment, verified by decreased Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), increased 5-level EuroQol-5 Dimension (EQ-5D-5L) scores, and improved motor grades. We suggest that a combination of MSAT with traditional Korean medicine could be a favorable option for foot drop in LDH patients in terms of rapid pain reduction and the improvement of quality of life.

After receiving an average of 28.5 days of Korean medicine inpatient treatment, both patients had reduced NRS, NDI scores and increased ROM. After Korean medicine complex treatment, 2 patients with clavicle fracture showed to have been effective. But further studies need to be done.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to investigate the characteristics, validity, and reliability of non-radiological assessment tools of scoliosis that have been studied so far. Methods: Electronic databases including Pubmed, Cochrane Library, CNKI, Science On, RISS, OASIS were searched by keywords including 'scoliosis assessment', 'scoliosis screening', 'physical examination', 'functional measurement', 'photography', and 'smartphone'. Results: 32 articles using radiation-free assessments were identified from 1,011 records. The mostly used non-radiological methods were Surface topography, Scoliometer, Ultrasound, Digital Infrared Thermal Imaging, and Photography. The other methods were Gait analysis, 3D depth sensor imaging, and Low intensity electromagnetic scan. Conclusions: It was found that non-radiological assessment tools might reduce the number of radiographs taken in scoliosis patients. To increase the reliability and validity, further research on the measurement tools of scoliosis will be needed.

Objectives : The aim of this study is to review clinical studies of facial palsy sequelae treatment Methods : We used search engines such as PUBMED, OASIS, RISS. We limited sequelae as the cases after three months from the onset. We excluded the studies including operational treatments. We considered papers pubulished only after year 2000. Results : The kinds of treatments were acupunture treatment, physical therapy, Botulinum toxin, and steroids and antiviral agent. Four studies about acupuncture treatment were searched. Two were case studies and the other two were case series studies. Six studies about physical therapy were searched and they were devided into three according to their specific methods - neuromuscular training and biofeedback, electrical stimulation, and facial exercises. We reviewed three studies about Botulinum toxin and 3 studies about combined therapy. Conclusions : Evidence level of the acupuncture studies was not high. Neuromuscular retraining and biofeedback therapies were shown to be effective especially to synkinesis. Mime therapy, one of the facial exercise has significant effect. Electrical stimulation is thought to activate the plasticity of central nerve system. Botulimum Toxin has effective temporary treatment. Steroid therapy increases recovery rate and reduces sequelae.
