Objective: ZhangJinYoPian(藏珍要編, ZJYP) is a book witten by Song-WooGe in the late 19th century. While Korea has lost this book to tell us Korea traditional acupuncture treatment in the late 19th century, This book appeared as a manuscript in Japan. There is no reaserch or study carried out for this book. Furthermore, a few people know existence of this book. So I analyzed acupuncture treatment of the ZJYP and sort out the distinctive feature of it. Method: For that, I studied bibliographic information of this book and classified contents of it into three parts - medical thought, needle manipulation and acupoint selection to consider it's caracteristics. Results and Conclusions: 1. The author of ZJYP thought that weakness of good power in the body and strongness of evil power out of the body cause a disease. so Doctor should examine quality of both to care patient's pain. 2. The author of ZJYP thought that needle manipulation is one of the most important thing. Doctors can use needle manipulation to control patient condition. Especially, he suggested cooling and heating manipulation except reinforcement and reduction. 3. He stressed viscera and bowels. he located viscera and bowels theory in front of the book to explain relationship of these. It shows us that ZJYP maintained academic characteristics of acupuncture in Chosun-Korea. 4. While He minimized the number of acupoints used in treatment, he multiplied its combination. He selected one or two acupoints from each meridian pathway. It include Eight Confluent points(八脈交會穴). But these points were used in different ways to control the viscera and bowels, not to care the eight extra meridians.

Objectives: This study reviewed research trends concerning the prevalence of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) use and to suggest future research directions appropriate to medical circumstances in Korea. Methods: We searched for surveys of CAM use in 8 databases including 6 Korean databases, Ovid MEDLINE, and the CINAHL electronic database. Three independent reviewers working in pairs screened titles and abstracts of articles for eligibility. Full text was retrieved in case of disagreement on the eligibility. The main analysis targets included survey researcher's affiliation, terminology used in the title, study subject, definition of CAM, classifications of CAM modalities, and the area assortment of CAM and traditional Korean medicine (TKM). Results: 92 articles were included for analysis. The major constituent of affiliation was doctors (53%). According to years, study subjects were diversified to a large range of diseases. Since 2003, terminology is absorbed to use CAM. But actually, the most commonly used definition in the research was comprehensive such as "not generally considered part of major medicine" (55.4%) and the most used classification of CAM was self-criteria (61.9%). As for area assortment of CAM and TKM, many therapies exist in a gray zone between CAM and TKM. Conclusions: Standardized definition and classification criteria about CAM fit to the Korean healthcare system have not yet developed. For traditional Korean medicine academia, more concern should be paid to establishing appropriate development of definitions and classification criteria.

Objectives The purpose of this study is to see the prevalence and the patterns of the use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) in children and adolescent patients with allergies. Methods We analyzed data on 547 children and adolescents (age from 0-18 years old) chosen from all regions throughout the country with allergic diseases, including atopic dermatitis, allergic rhinitis, asthma and allergic urticaria. We used multiple logistic regression modeling to predict CAM use based on predictor variables. Results The previous 12-months prevalence of CAM usage in overall was 70.7% (atopic dermatitis, 78.1%; allergic rhinitis, 52.9%; asthma, 70.3%; allergic urticaria, 86.3%). Central and southern regions displayed significantly lower rate of using CAM compare to the northern region, and CAM was less likely to be used for the allergic rhinitis patients than the atopic dermatitis patients. The most commonly used CAM type was natural products (62.2%). Top five of the most frequently used CAM modalities were softener water, vitamin, red ginseng, wood bathing and aloe oil. One of the main reasons for trying CAM was from the 'hope for a more effective outcomes in additional to the conventional medicine' (43.9%). The subjective effectiveness of CAM was found to be excellent in 74.0% of the patients, and 70.3% of the parents were willing to recommend CAM therapies to the others. Conclusions CAM is used widely to treat allergic diseases in children and adolescents in Korea. Korean medical doctors should actively discuss the use of CAM with the patients and provide information on the effectiveness and safety of CAM as guide in making choice for usage of CAM.

Objective : In this study, we try to identify the herbal formulated by Heo Im from Kyeongheombang(經驗方), and investigate its medical property. Method : Those articles referenced from Heo Im's herbal formulas in "Sauikyeongheombang(四醫經驗方)" were extracted and results were quantitatively analyzed. From extracted empirical formulas, those categorized as externally applicable formulas were grouped by several standards and their medical significance was analyzed. Results and Conclusions : 85 and 66 articles were designated to be referred from Heo(許) in "Sauikyeongheombang" and "Uibanghapbu(醫方合部)" in each category, and 263 and 155 were identified to be Heo Im formulas, respectively. Externally applicable formulas in Heo Im's empirical recipes have following characteristics. First, various methods were used by Heo Im. Second, Heo Im's empirical formulas suggest useful clinical information maximizing therapeutic effect, which is of much value, originated from his practical experiences as a clinician. Third, Heo Im's therapy favorably succeeds the tradition of Hyangyak-medicine and Empirical -medicine. From this information, Heo Im is thought to have had rich insight and experience, not only in acupuncture but also in the prescription of herbal formulas at those days.

목 적:만성질환자가 아닌 일반 학동기 아동을 대상으로 보완대체요법 이용실태를 파악하며 소아청소년과 의사로서 대처 방향을 모색하고자 연구를 실시하였다. 방 법:3개 초등학교 1학년부터 6학년 1,688명의 학부모를 대상으로 설문조사를 시행하였다. 그중 설문지가 회수된 794명(47%)을 분석하였다. 결 과:일반적인 학동기 아동에서 보완대체요법의 이용률은 278명(35%)이었고, 보완대체요법의 종류는 한약제 62.6%, 보조식품 31.3%, 비타민 30.2%, 선식 11.2%, 침술 11.2%, 체 냄, 수지침 순이었다. 보완대체요법의 이용률은 어머니의 학력이 대학 이상 일 때, 종교가 있을 때, 가정 월 총수입이 100만 원 이상일 때 의미 있게 높았으며 이용하게 된 동기는 질병예방목적이 가장 많았고, 주로 주변 사람이나 매체를 통해 이용하였다. 보완대체요법에 대한 만족하지 못하는 경우는 16%였고, 재사용 의향이 없는 경우는 20.5%였고, 환아가 건강할 때 주로 사용하는 경향을 보였다. 환아가 영양결핍, 아토피 피부염, 관절통증, 알레르기비염, 비만, 천식 때 주로 이용하는 경향을 보였다. 결 론:보완대체 의학의 사용이 아이의 건강상태와는 밀접하지 않으며 사용 경로 또한 주변 사람의 권유나 방송 매체 등을 통해 이루어지고, 병원치료와 병행 시 좋을 것이라는 막연한 기대감으로 사용되고 있는 경우가 많아 보완대체요법에 대한 부작용, 효과, 안전성에 대한 연구가 필요하며 만성질환 및 알레르기 질환의 경우 소아청소년과 의사로서 현대의학의 적극적인 치료 및 교육이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

카르복시테라피(Carboxytherapy)는 메조테라피(mesotherapy)와 방법, 치료 조건 및 결과 면에서 매우 유사하다. 그러나 중요한 차이점은 카르복시테라피는 이산화탄소 가스를 피부 바로 아래의 피하층으로 주입하는 반면 메조테라피는 비타민, 미네랄, 그리고 약물의 혼합물을 주입한다는 것이다. 메조테라피의 합병증으로 혈종, 파누스육아종, 봉와직염, 농양 등 이전에 많은 사례들이 보고되었으나, 카르복시테라피는 피하 및 얕은층에 이산화탄소를 주입하고, 이산화탄소는 주입 1주일 안에 흡수되기 때문에 부작용이 거의 보고 되지 않았다. 3일전과 2주전에 한의원에서 카르복시테라피를 받은 29세 여자 환자가 고열, 근육통, 심한 요통 및 엉덩이 부위부터 아래쪽 흉벽까지 피하 기종을 주소로 응급실에 내원하였다. 진단 및 치료를 위해 컴퓨터 단층 촬영을 시행하였으며, 즉시 영상의학과에 판단을 의뢰하였다. 바늘에 의한 손상으로 인한 급성 복막염을 배제할 수 없어 즉각적인 광범위항생제를 투여하였으며, 판독 결과 근육염과 바늘 손상으로 인한 신우신염이 확진되었다. 신우 신염의 경우 적절한 치료가 이루어지지 않으면 패혈증까지 진행할 수 있어 치명적인 결과를 초래 할 수 있다. 따라서 만일 바늘에 찔리거나 침을 맞은 후에 환자가 늑골척추부위나 허리에 통증이 있는 경우 응급의학과 의사는 진단 및 치료를 위해 신속한 초기 평가가 필요하다.
