The oriental medical treatment has many strong points when compared to the western medical treatment, but there are still problems when there is no scientific proof given concerning the effectiveness of a certain treatment. Moreover, experiments are being conducted where new medical treatments applied to patients suing both oriental and western techniques. Especially, in oriental acupuncture, there is no objective data on which an oriental medicine doctor can decide the injection time for acupuncture needle by considering a patients body condition, age and the condition of the diseases. From computer simulation results, it has been that the electronic needle is more efficient than the conventional method of acupuncture needle.

치과마취시의 응급사항이란 마취를 시행하는 도중이나, 후에 정상적으로 기대되었던 현상외의 변이로 나타난 합병증과 같다고 생각되며 이들 합병증의 치료를 소홀히 하였을때 치명적인 상태까지도 도달할 수 있다. 마취의 효과는 주사침이 조직내로 자입된 후, 마취액이 주입되어 해당신경이 분포되는 부위에 동통감각이 소실됨으로써 얻어지게 된다. 그러므로 주사침의 자입시나 주입된 마취액에 의한 부작용이 없어야 한다.

무속인들은 어디서 병을 치료할 수 있는 능력이 나오는가. 그것은 무속인이 보통사람보다 강력한 기가 있기 때문에 예지력과 치유능력이 생겨 약과 침을 쓰지 않고도 병을 치료할 수 있는 것이다. 중국에서는 기치료가 대중화되어 병원에서는 기공사 한방 양의가 협동해서 치료를 하고 있다.

Therapeutic effect of Yinyang Balancing Appliance of functional cerebrospinal therapy (FCST) for meridian and neurologic yinyang balance was observed in tic disorder patients. Seventy tic disorder cases were managed with the Yinyang Balancing Appliance on temporomandibular joint (TMJ), combined with acupuncture. Clinical outcome measurement was based on subjective measures and overall clinical impressions. Patients showed a trend toward improvement by clinical observations. In some cases, such changes were visible even after the initial treatment, and this effect was observed to be maintained over the follow-up period. Further clinical and biological research on tic disorder is expected with respect to the FCST.

Acupuncture is a complementary medical treatment whose use in cancer patients has been recommended by the American Cancer Society (ACS) for the treatment of cancer and treatment-related symptoms. Pain, nausea, breathlessness, vasomotor symptoms and limb edema have all been found to respond to this treatment modality. This has become quite familiar to many Koreans not only for pain, but also for many other health problems, both in acute and chronic conditions. Actually, acupuncture is a therapeutic technique that is part of a larger system of traditional oriental medicine. There are several styles of acupuncture. We treated one 72-year-old female patient with Dongshiqixue Acupuncture Technique who had refused surgical operation for brain meningioma showing right hemiparesis, dysarthria, headache and dizziness. During the acupuncture treatment, there were no other adverse effects. After six day's treatment, she could ambulate and make usual life all by herself. On her brain magnetic resonence image follow-up, there was no interval change in meningioma. After discharged from our hospital, she has kept up her independent daily life as before. So it is suggested that some acupuncture treatment should be effect on brain meningioma clinically.

연구목적 : 선양낭성암은 모든 두경부 종양에서 불과 1% 미만의 희소암으로, 본 논문에서는 하악 선양낭성암 기원의 간에 전이성 거대 종양을 가진 증례를 통해 선양낭성암에서의 한방 치료의 유효성평가와 함께 이에 대한 계속적인 연구를 유도해내는 계기로 삼고자 한다. 연구방법 : 본 연구에서는 한약물치료, 침치료, CT검사 및 혈액학적 검사를 포함한 모든 치료와 검사결과를 추적 조사하였다. 치료로 청간탕과 화침법을 사용하였으며, 청간탕은 1일 3회 복용, 화침은 월 1회 시술하였다. 또한, 혈액학적 검사는 월 1회 하였으며, CT검사는 19개월간의 치료기간 중 2회에 걸쳐 수행되어졌다. 연구결과 : 재검사시의 CT소견과 내원당시의 CT소견을 비교하였을 때, 큰 변화가 없이 잘 유지하였으며, 비록 일부의 혈액학적 검사소견이 약간 악화되었지만, 환자의 주증상은 빠르게 경감되었다. 결론 : 본 증례는 진행성 선양낭성암 환자에게서 한방치료가 삶의 질 개선과 생존을 향상을 위한 고식적 목적의 치료에 유용하게 사용되어질 수 있는 가능성을 제시해 준다.

Objectives : This study was designed to evaluate the effect of Jung-an acupuncture on Bell's palsy(peripheral facial paralysis) patients. Methods : We investigated 24 cases of patients with peripheral facial paralysis. The patients were divided into two groups. Both Group A, B were treated with general acupuncture and Group A was added to treatment with Jung-an acupuncture. We evaluated the treatment effect of each group three times by using Yanagihara's unweighted grading system. Results : As a result of evaluation by using Yanagihara score, they were not significant scores between two groups after treatment. Conclusions : Jung-an acupuncture and general Acupuncture has significant effect on acute(before 4 weeeks at onset) Bell's palsy. But there is no statistical significance in Jung-an acupuncture on acute phase(within 4 weeks of onset).

Objectives : This study aimed to find out whether acupuncture at various acupoints shows any effects on appetite by regulating neurotransmitters in the hypothalamus through the expression of NPY and LR in the PVN via immunohistochemistry. Methods : Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into eight groups of five mice each. The rats in the acupuncture groups were treated with acupuncture at respective acupoints, twice per a day for 3 days. The animals were sacrificed 72 h after commencement of the experiment, the brains being dissected into serial coronal sections. Expressions of neuropeptide Y and leptin receptor in the hypothalamus were assessed by immunohistochemistry. Results : NPY expression in the PVN was enhanced and LR expression in the PVN was decreased by food deprivation. NPY immunoreactivity in the PVN of the food-derived rats was decreased by acupuncture at the auricular acupoint, Zusanli-acupoint, a and non-acupoint. However, acupuncture at the auricular acupoint showed most potent suppressing effect on NPY expression in the PVN of food-deprived rats. LR expression in the PVN decreased following food deprivation, and auricular acupuncture increased LR expression in the PVN of food-deprived rats. In normal conditions (fed state), LR expression in the PVN was not changed by acupuncture treatment at several sites. Conclusions : From this study, we have shown that acupuncture at the auricular acupoint exerts the most potent appetite suppressing effect on the food restriction state.
