Pain is subjective and greatly influenced by prior experiences, but it is real. Pain associated with an organic(objective) pathology is more easily explained and treated. However, atypical or unexplainable pain is usually a source of greater confusion and frustration. Pain may be divided into four general diagnostic categories. 1) pain with anatomic features and objective findings 2) pain with anatomic features and without objective findings 3) pain with non-anatomic features associated with stress and somatization 4) pain with non-anatomic features associated with perceived physical injury. There is a well-established relationship between emotional, physical and/or sexual abuse history and development of chronic pain. It has been suggested that the link between somatization and abuse involves a paradoxical pattern of hiding feelings and reality, while seeking acknowledgment of suffering. History of abuse may physiologically and developmentally increase a person's susceptability to pain and organic changes can be associated with psychogenic disease. Patients with chronic pain should be treated with multidisciplinary approaches including exercise, meditation, cognitive therapy, medications, and biofeedback. Cognitive therapy alters patient's cognition and management of pain and alleviates pain, especially associated with stress. Antidepressants are the most commonly used medications and pain control effects have no relation with mood changes. Biofeedback with relaxation training, exercise and meditation may also be effective in pain control.

In order to find useful taxonomic morphological characters, 17 taxa from East-Asia Astragalus and Oxytropis anertii were investigated. In this study, seed coat structure, fruit surface, and fruit anatomical structures were selected to classify the species in Astragalus. As a results, useful morphological and anatomical characters in East-Asia Astragalus were life cycle, leaflet shape, raceme, petal color, seed color, pod shape, absent or present of hairs in pod surface, bent degree of dorsal suture, and thickness of endocarp. Using medicinal sources in China, A. floridus, A. membranaceus, A. membranaceus var. mongholicus and A. tongolensis were formed same group. However, these were not completely consensus in the morphological characters. The other hand, A. koraiensis and A. sikokianus, which have controversial taxonomic issue, have clearly no differences morphological characters each other. Therefore, A. koraiensis, A. sikokianus, and A. bhotanensis should be conducted a comparative study on the DNA sequences and molecular cytology in order to clarify the taxonomic treatments in the near future.

This study using a method different from those employed previously, the anatomical characteristics of paper-mulberry wood were confirmed by observing three different sections. In addition, the factors affecting the pulp and papermaking processes were analyzed in terms of morphological properties such as the fiber length and width, lumen width, and chemical composition of the paper-mulberry bast fiber. The anatomical characteristics of the paper-mulberry wood were a ring porous or semi-ring porous structure with the vessels showing solitary pore and radial array. The medullary ray of the tangential section showed 1-3 rows and common helical thickening. Consequently, the paper-mulberry wood has the same anatomical characteristics throughout. The morphological characteristics of the paper-mulberry bast fiber are a fiber length of 6.58 to 9.01 mm, fiber width of 15.85 to $27.80{\mu}m$, lumen width of 4.50 to $12.54{\mu}m$. The D sample of Gangwon was the most suitable for the pulp and papermaking processes, in terms of its derived morphological ratios. Comparing the chemical compositions, the C sample of Gyeongsang had a high holocellulose content (90%). Thus, the findings herein will aid in determining the quality of Korean paper post production.

선천성 심기형 환아의 중환자실 관리를 포함한 술전후 관리를 위하여는 각질환에 대한 해부학적, 혈역학적 욧점을 이해하고, 교정의 내용, 교정후 일어날 수 있는 혈역학적 특징을 간파하여야한다. 그런다음 소아 심장 환아의 중환자 관리상 필요한 각종 지표가 어떤 것들이 있는지 숙지해야하고 이를 바탕으로 시시각각으로 정상 범위를 벗어나려고 하는 각종 지표들을 철저히 감시하여 환아의 상태가 안정권에 돌입할때까지 신속하게 대처하는 것이 중환자 관리 요령이자 목표이다.

후방십자인대 손상의 이상적 치료는 아직까지도 확립되지 않았다. 과거 몇 십 년간 후방십자인대에 대한 지식과 슬관절 안정성에 대한 후방십자인대의 생역학에 대한 지식이 증가하였다. 특히 이중 다발에 대한 지식이 증가하고 이러한 모든 노력들은 후방십자인대의 해부학적인 특징을 최대한 복원하기 위해 이루어졌다. 재건술의 수술 방법은 특정 손상 양상에 따라 그에 맞게 이루어지는데 만성 손상의 경우나 remnant가 거의 존재하지 않는 경우에는 이중 다발을 재건하는 것이 만족스러운 결과를 보인다. 아직까지 이중 다발 후방십자인대 재건술의 결과에 대해서는 논란이 많은 것은 사실이나 장기 추시가 가능해지면 이중 다발 후방십자인대 재건술이 해부학적으로나 생역학적으로 더욱 정상에 가깝기 때문에 더 나은 장기적 결과를 보여줄 것으로 예상된다.

Anterior interosseous nerve syndrome is characterized by weakness of the flexor pollicis longus, the flexor digitorum profundus and the pronator quadratus in the presence of normal sensation. Although MR imaging findings of anterior interosseous nerve syndrome has been reported in a few articles, we report herein a case of anterior interosseous nerve syndrome involving more than usual muscles innervated by anterior interosseous nerve, caused by varient nerve innervation.

The morphological characteristics of Chionanthus retusus Lindl. & Paxton in Korea are reviewed in this study through the comparison with its previous records and a distribution map of this species is created using previous flora and voucher specimens. The leaf epidermal micromorphology and the petiole anatomy are also briefly described.

Medical imaging modalities to image either anatomical structure or functional processes have developed along somewhat independent paths. Functional images with single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and positron emission tomography (PET) are playing an increasingly important role in the diagnosis and staging of malignant disease, image-guided therapy planning, and treatment monitoring. SPECT and PET complement the more conventional anatomic imaging modalities of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. When the functional imaging modality was combined with the anatomic imaging modality, the multimodality can help both identify and localize functional abnormalities. Combining PET with a high-resolution anatomical imaging modality such as CT can resolve the localization issue as long as the images from the two modalities are accurately coregistered. Software-based registration techniques have difficulty accounting for differences in patient positioning and involuntary movement of internal organs, often necessitating labor-intensive nonlinear mapping that may not converge to a satisfactory result. These challenges have recently been addressed by the introduction of the combined PET/CT scanner and SPECT/CT scanner, a hardware-oriented approach to image fusion. Combined PET/CT and SPECT/CT devices are playing an increasingly important role in the diagnosis and staging of human disease. The paper will review the development of multi modality instrumentations for clinical use from conception to present-day technology and the application software.

The spermatozoal ultrastructure of Acheilognathus yamatsutae was studied using transmission electron microscopy. The mature spermatozoa are similar to those of other cyprinids as follows: a spherical nucleus with a shallow nuclear fossa, a short midpiece containing mitochondria and a long flagellum. However, there are some differences from other cyprinids in the orientation and position of the centrioles, the number of mitochondria, and the structure of vesicles. The position of the proximal centriole was of two types: one located on the side of nucleus decline, the other situated on the opposite side.
