Korean folk medicine 'Jil-Kyung-Ee' has been used to cure female disease, acute gastritis, edema, abdominal pain and pleurisy. The botanical origin of the crude drug has not been confirmed pharmocognostically. To clarify the botanical origin of 'Jil-Kyung-Ee', the morphological and anatomical characteristics of the leaves and roots of Plantago species growing in Korea, i.e. P. asiatica L., P. camtschatica Cham., P. depressa Willd., P. lanceolata L., P. major L. var. japonica (Fr. et Sav.) Miyabe were compared. As a result, it was determined that 'Jil-Kyung-Ee' was the whole plant body of Plantago asiatica and Plantago camtschatica.

Alnus japonica cortex has been used as antidiarrhea, antihemorrhage and the remedy of indigestion. This study was performed to investigate the effectiveness of the methanol extracts of the Alnus japonica cortex on the gastric lesion and ulcer. The methanol extract was fractionated with hexane, chloroform and butanol, followed by bioassay on antigastritic and antiulcer activity. The methanol extract showed low acute toxicity with minimum lethal dose of more than 5000 mg/kg, p.o. in mice. The chloroform and the butanol fraction reduced gastric lesion in HCI. ethanol induced gastritic model. On gastric secretion in pylorus ligated rat, the hexane and chloroform fraction decreased the volume and acidity. The butanol fraction had significant inhibitory effects on aspirin and Shay's ulcer. The butanol fraction showed a tendency to inhibit the decrease of mucin secretion due to ingestion of absolute ethanol.

The protective effect of ginsenoside Re, isolated from ginseng berry, against acute gastric mucosal lesions was examined in rats with a single intraperitoneal injection of compound 48/80 (C48/80). Ginsenoside Re (20 mg/kg or 100 mg/kg) was orally administered 0.5 h prior to C48/80 treatment. Ginsenoside Re dose-dependently prevented gastric mucosal lesion development 3 h after C48/80 treatment. Increases in the activities of myeloperoxidase (MPO; an index of neutrophil infiltration) and xanthine oxidase (XO) and the content of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS; an index of lipid peroxidation) and decreases in the contents of hexosamine (a marker of gastric mucus) and adherent mucus, which occurred in gastric mucosal tissues after C48/80 treatment, were significantly attenuated by ginsenoside Re. The elevation of Bax expression and the decrease in Bcl2 expression after C48/80 treatment were also attenuated by ginsenoside Re. Ginsenoside Re significantly attenuated all these changes 3 h after C48/80 treatment. These results indicate that orally administered ginsenoside Re protects against C48/80-induced acute gastric mucosal lesions in rats, possibly through its stimulatory action on gastric mucus synthesis and secretion, its inhibitory action on neutrophil infiltration, and enhanced lipid peroxidation in the gastric mucosal tissue.

To examine the result of the government Medical Aid Program which began in January, 1977 as a part of social security policy implementation, all the medical records of the clients and official statistics in the year were analysed. The specific objectives this study pursues include the magnitudes and patterns of morbidity and utilization, and the characteristics of clients. One Korean rural area, Koje county was selected as the study area and subsequently all the clinics and hospitals assigned to work out the Aid Program are the subjects for the survey. A brief summary of the sutdy results as follows: a. The clients of Koje county are 6.4% of the total population in the area, more than the average percentage of the clients in Korea. It reflects on low level of economic status of the residents of the area. b. The population structure of the clients indicates that the large proportions of young and old age group are overwhelming, while the middle age group share very small portions. c. The utilization rates for primary care are 2.0 persons, 11.6 visits and 22.6 treatment days per 100 persons per months. Annual hospitalization is rated as 13.7 cases and 164 days per 1,000 persons, The utilization rates are slightly lower than those expected rates during planning period but eventually become higher than those of general population in rural Korea. d. The factors which influence the utilization rates are identified with client group (low income vs indigent), age and sex. e. The utilization pattern for primary care demonstrates seasonal variation similar to the pattern of general rural population in the low income group, but none in the indigent group. f. The most common diseases revealed at the primary care clinics are the acute respiratory infection (26.9%), acute gastritis (10.8%), skin and subcutaneous infection (6.8%). The cases of acute conditions are outnumbered than the cases of chronic condition. 8. The clinics, hospitals and other related health institutions are well cooperated in dealing health care services in their own capacities. Considering the above results Medical Aid Program generated satisfactory results at least in the utilization aspect.

본 연구는 산약(Dioscorea Rhizoma)이 급성 위궤양을 유발한 흰쥐의 위장 장애에 미치는 효과를 조사하였다. 산약 분말사료를 섭이한 실험군과 산약 분말액을 투여한 실험군의 궤양성 출혈은 1 일 이상 진행되었으나 시간이 경과함에 따라 서서히 호전되었으며, 특히 산약즙을 처리한 실험군의 경우 급성 위궤양 유발직후에 국소적인 위점막 울혈만이 관찰되었다. 또한 산약분말액과 산약즙을 투여한 실험군에서는 급성 위괘양 유발 후 증가되는 gastrin과 histamine의 농도가 감소되어 산약이 위산의 과다 분비를 억제하는 것으로 조사되었으며, 산약을 투여한 모든 실험군에서 과도한 지질과산화물의 생성이 감소되었다. 이와 더불어 산약의 투여는 급성 위궤양에 의해 급격하게 증가된 SOD와 GPX의 활성을 감소시키는 반면, CAT의 활성은 높여주어 조직 내 항산화효소 활성을 정상 수준으로 회복시켜주는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 산약은 급성 위궤양에 의한 위 조직의 손상을 감소시키고 혈장 성분과 항산화효소의 활성을 정상수준으로 회복시켜 위궤양으로부터 위장기능을 개선하는데 높은 효과가 있을 것으로 사료된다.

본 연구는 2008년 환자조사 자료를 이용하여 위장질환과 충수염질환을 대상으로 지역간 입원의료이용의 변이정도와 양상을 파악하고, 변이 발생에 영향을 미치는 관련 요인을 분석한 후, 이를 기초로 변이를 최소화하여 의료 이용을 적정화 시킬 수 있는 방안을 모색하기 위해 수행하였다. Extremal Quotient(EQ)와 변이계수(CV) 지표를 사용하여 변이수준을 파악하였고, 다중회귀분석을 통해 입원의료이용의 차이에 영향을 미치는 주요 요인들을 분석하였다. 주요 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 위장질환의 소규모 지역별 성 연령 표준화에 따른 입원율의 경우 EQ 15.1, CV 0.4의 변이를 보였으며, 특히 농어촌 지역에서 변이 10대 상위군이 높은 분포를 나타냈다. 또한, 인구만명당 병상수, 의사수, 특수의료장비수에 따라 입원의료이용량이 통계적으로 유의한 양의 관계를 보였다. 둘째, 충수염질환에서는 EQ 12.41, CV 0.4를 나타냈고, 회귀분석을 통해 입원의료이용의 차이에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분석한 결과 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다. 본 연구 결과의 정책적인 함의로는 급성질환자의 입원의료이용의 형평성을 제고할 수 있도록 지역별 병상의 적정한 공급 관리와 효율적인 자원배분 및 의료서비스의 질적 차이를 감소시킬 수 있는 다각적인 정책 방안이 추진되어야 함을 시사해 준다.
