  • WooHwangChungSimWon is a traditional medicine for treatment of hypertension, arteriosclerosis, coma, and stroke in China, Korea, and Japan. In the new prescription of WooHwangChungSimWon, the civet is substituted for the musk, the major component of WooHwangChungSimwon, because of the prohibition law about the musk. We have made a comparative study of the effects on the central nervous system between the musk containing and civet containing WooHwangChungSimWon. In order to investigate the effects on the central nervous system, we have examined spontaneous motor activities, anti-convulsion activities induced by chemicals or electric shock, sleep induced by hexobarbital, and antistress effects. In the examination of anti-convulsion effects against the electric shock and injection of pentetrazol, only the civet containing WooHwangChungSimWon showed the anti-convulsion effects, i.e. the duration of convulsion by electric shock was decreased (control: 104.0 seconds, low dose of civet containing WooHwangChungSimWon: 60.7 seconds) and the duration of suppression against pentetrazol induced convulsion was increased (control: 392.3 seconds, low dose of civet containing WooHwangChungSimWon: 574.0 seconds, high dose of civet containing WooHwangChungSimWon: 561.4 seconds). In the other examinations, all kinds of WooHwangChungSimWon showed sedation, anti-convulsion activities, and induction of sleeping. These results suggest that there are no significant differences between the musk containing and civet containing WooHwangChungSimWon except the anti-convulsion effects against the convulsions induced by electric shock and pentetrazol.

The comparison of histological effects of musk containing and civet containing WooHwangChungSimWon on the cerebral ischemia (Mongolian Gerbil의 뇌허혈 유발에 따른 뇌조직 손상에 있어서 사향 함유 우황청심원액과 영묘향 함유 우황청심원액의 조직학적 효능 비교)

  • WooHwangChungSimWon is a traditional prescription for treating with hypertension, arteriosclerosis, coma, and stroke in China, Korea, and Japan. In the new presciption of WooHwangChungSimWon, the covet is substituted for the musk, the major component of WooHwangChungSimwon, because of the prohibition law about the musk. We have made a comparative study of the effects on the ischemic damage between the musk containing and civet containing WooHwangChungSimWon. In order to investigate the effects of WooHwangChungSimWon on the ischemic damage, each samples were administrated for 12 days, ischemia was induced for 10 minutes at 7th day, and immunohistochemistry was performed in the region of hippocampus of mongolian gerbils. According to the result of immunohistochemistry, the survival rates of neuroal cells in the hippocampal CA1 region are 37.8% in the high dose of musk containing WooHwangChungSimWon (HM-WHCSW) administrated group, 27.8% in low dose of civet containing WooHwangChungSimWon (LC-WHCSW), and 35.5% in high dose of civet containing WooHwangChungSimWon (HC-WHCSW) administrated group. These survial rates were significantly different from the survival rate of sham control group (14.4%). The results suggest that all the samples except the low dose of musk containing WooHwangChungSimWon (LM-WHCSW) have protective or preventive effects on cerebral ischemia.

  • WooHwangChungSimWon is a traditional prescription formula for treating with hypertension, arteriosclerosis, coma, and stroke in China, Korea, and Japan. In the new prescription of WooHwangChungSimWon, the civet is substituted for the musk, the major component of WooHwangChungSimwon, because of the prohibition law (CITES) on the commercial use of musk. We have made a comparative study of the effects on the hypertension and contractile force of heart between the musk-containing and civet-containing WooHwangChungSimWon. The SHR rats were used for investigating the effects on the hypertension and the rabbits were used for investigating effects on the contractile force of isolated heart. The blood pressure which was recorded during the adminstration period showed that all the samples except the low dose of musk-containing WooHwangChungSimWon decreased the blood pressure, and the effects on the heart works of all the samples were higher than control group, which resulted from the examination of isolated heart. These results suggest that all the musk-containing and civet-containing WooHwangChungSimWon formula have similar protective effects on hypertension and palpitation.

  • A case of renal candidiasis is reported in a 4-year-old male Masked Palm civet (Paguma larvata) On necropsy, the kidneys were bilaterally swollen, pale and had numerous 1 to 3 mm diameter white foci throughout the parenchyma on cut section. The urinary bladder was filled with opaque and milky exudate. Histologically, severe infiltration of neutrophils and macrophages and necrosis were noted in the interstitial areas of both cortex and medulla and in the lumens of renal tubules and collecting duct often resulting in cystic dilation of the tubules. PAS-positive fungal yeasts or pseudohyphae were often associated with the lesion. Candida albicans was isolated from the kidney and urinary bladder.

  • Traveling wave generation in a ring type stator has been studied. The basic working principle to create traveling wave has been modelled by the superposition of two orthogonal standing waves. Theoretical analysis shows that the length to radius ratio affects the frequency gap between two pseudo orthogonal modes used to create traveling wave. FEM simulation is then discussed and applied to validate the analytical model. At last, a possible optimal solution is reported with FEM verification.

  • This paper presents the multi-objective optimisation of an Inductive Coupled Power Transfer (ICPT) device. A setup as complicated as the one at hand in this paper is extremely hard to model analytically. To acquire some knowledge about the influence of the geometric factors, a sensitivity analysis is first performed using design of experiment (DoE) and finite-element modelling (FEM). It allows validating that the choice of the free factors is relevant. This being done, the optimisation itself is performed using a genetic algorithm (GA), with two objectives and a strict functioning constraint.
