Chronic patients and staffs in healthcare facilities cannot avoid long-term stays indoors. Therefore, they need to get adequate amounts of sunlight to prevent diseases caused by vitamin D deficiency. This is a case study on the advanced daylighting systems installed to healthcare facilities for therapeutic environments as serving natural light therapy and a pleasant atmosphere. This paper shows daylighting devices that overcome the structural limits of architectural design solutions for inducing natural light. This study presents appropriate daylighting technologies to the purpose and types of healthcare facilities by analyzing therapeutic environmental factors. Natural light delivered through daylighting devices help directly patients recover. In addition, it can improve healthcare providers' performance and productivity, and reduce their errors, thereby creating therapeutic environments for patients, indirectly. Excellent color rendering of solar illumination is also a powerful tool for navigation and wayfinding in the buildings, and for aesthetic treatment in dental office. Furthermore, daylighting systems are streamlined and require the least material and space to attract sunlight up to the deeper inside. But because of expensive cost, they have not yet been widespread. Though daylighting devices are typically more expensive than artificial illuminations to install, the running cost savings can compensate for the initial installation cost. With the development of technology in the future, the market price of them is expected to be formed properly.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between pigmental reaction and blood components, such as white blood cell (WBC), lymphocyte, monocyte, red blood cell (RBC), hemoglobin, mean corpuscular index (mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC)), hematocrit, platelet and neutrophil segment, after Cupping Glass Therapy (CGT). Subjects: Twenty-five healthy adults participated in this study; Methods: Subjects had undergone CGT for 5 days and were divided into two groups (dark color (DCG) and light color (LCG)) depending the level of pigmental reaction. Blood was collected from each subject at the beginning of this study and recollected after 5 day s'CGT. Results: The percentage of lymphocytes was higher in LCG than in DCG after CGT (p<.01) and was significantly increased in LCD after CGT (p<.01), The number of RBC was more in DCG than in LCG both before (p<.01) and after CGT (p<.05). The amount of hemoglobin was more in DCG than in LCG both before (p<.01) and after CGT (p<.01) and was significantly increased in LCD after CGT (p<.01). Mean corpuscular index showed that both MCH (p<.05) and MCHC (p<.01) were higher in DCG than in LCG after CGT, but only MCHC before CGT (p<.01). It also showed either decreased MCV (p<.01) or increased MCHC in LCD after CGT (p<.01). Hematocrite was higher in DCG than in LCG both before (p<.01) and after CGT (p<.01). The percentage of neutrophil segments was higher in BCG than In LCG after CGT (p<.01) and was significantly decreased in LCD after CGT (p<.05). However, neither the number of WBC and platelets nor the percentage of monocytes was significantly different between DCG and LCG either before or after CGT. Conclusion: Pigmental reaction was significantly related to the changes of blood conponents after CGT. The results of this study suggest that CGT may have an effect on the components of blood cells.

This study evaluated whether fluoride treatment can affect recovery of the irregularity of enamel surface after tooth whitening with a high concentration of hydrogen peroxide (HP) activated by plasma arc light. A total of 36 bovine teeth stained with coke were used in this experiment. The specimens were classified into following three groups (two different commercial plasma arc groups and a control group without light curing source): (1) 35% HP gel only, (2): 35% HP gel and Plasma arc A, and (3) 35% HP gel and Plasma arc B. To measure color changes and surface morphologies before and after the bleaching, colorimeter and scanning electron microscopy were used, respectively. When the specimens were bleached with hydrogen peroxide and plasma arc lights, the bleaching effect was greater than when only hydrogen peroxide gels were used (Kruskal-Wallis test, p<0.05). In addition, plasma arc B showed the more color changes than plasma arc A (Bonferroni post-hoc test, p<0.05). The surfaces of the teeth treated with fluoride gel after the whitening treatment came to be smooth. Therefore, the results of this study suggested that the fluoride application for patients who got tooth whitening therapy with a high concentration of hydrogen peroxide gels activated by plasma arc light will be effective to recover rough enamel surfaces.

목적: 전산화 신경인지기능 검사(CNT)에 속해있는 단어-색채검사를 이용하여 렌즈의 색상과 시감투과율에 의해 나타나는 색상왜곡을 알아본다. 방법: 안질환과 색각이상이 없는 평균나이 $21.97{\pm}1.58$세의 32명을 대상자로 선정하였다. 빛의 삼원색에 해당하는 red, green, blue에 pink를 추가하여 총 4가지 색상의 렌즈를 사용하였으며, 색상왜곡으로 인한 인지변화를 측정하기 위해 CNT 중 단어-색채검사를 사용하였다. 결과: 4가지 렌즈색상 중 green, blue, pink에서는 반응시간이 통계적으로 유의하게 증가하지 않았으나, red에서는 통계적으로 유의하게 반응시간이 증가하였다. Red 중 시감투과율 46% 이하에서 반응시간이 통계적으로 유의하게 증가하기 시작하였다. 결론: 46% 이하의 시감투과율을 가지는 red 렌즈는 사물을 보는데 색상왜곡의 원인으로 작용하여 안전문제를 일으킬 수 있으므로 렌즈색상으로 선택 시 주의를 기울여야 한다. 단어-색채검사가 색상인지와 관련되는 추후 연구에 폭넓게 활용될 수 있다는 것을 제안한다.

Oriental medicine specifies points which have proven to be valuable in the treatment of certain diseases or conditions of pain-the so-called master points and alarm points of the acupuncture system. The idea of applying colorpuncture via the master points already suggested itself on the basis of the very old correlations between organs and organ systems and colors which we find in a number of different therapeutic systems and trations. Each of the twelve organs of the acupuncture system has an alarm point which is usually not situated on the related meridian but on another channel. These alarm points are always to be found in the vicinity of the organs they are associated with. The combined use of master points and alarm points is a simple and excellent way of using colorpuncture. Via their inherent vibrational frequencies, the healings rays of colored light radiation are capable of releasing potent resonance forces within the organism, thus contributing to the alleviation and healing of acute and chronic diseases.
