This paper relates the occidental constitutional theory to the oriental one, concluding their origins to be similar, and demonstrates a new method of constitutional diagnosis by O-Ring Measurement System Of Muscular Meridians and Laser Constitutional Diagnosis. It establishes Laser Constitutional Diagnosis(L.C.D) using laser beams according to the principles of acupuncture and Sa-Sang constitutional physiology under the effect of spatial morphological energy of geometric isomers. Finally, hypothetical theory of L.C.D. was experimented by the O-Ring Measurement Systems of Muscular Meridians(O-R MSMM). O-R MSMM has been specially devised to improve the manual O-Ring Test prevailing to distinguish energetic response by muscle tonicity. Statistically, it has been proved that the constitutional diagnosis with O-R MSMM was highly effective and objective in the clinical experiences.

This study examined the constitutional engineering of the Philippine democracy in terms of power sharing and accountability, and the effectiveness and stability of the Philippine democracy as a result were assessed. Based on the analysis, the nature of the present Philippine democratic system since 1986 was brought to light. This study argues that the system of power sharing between the President and the congress in the Philippines tends to serve for negotiating political interests among the power elites rather than functioning in a constructive way. And the public accountability system is not functioning as it was designed to do. Due to the defects the Philippine democracy continuously suffers the lack of political effectiveness and stability. Despite of the problem, the reason not to break down the system would be the fact that the system served for the oligarchic power elites to circulate and recreate the political power exclusively. The direction of the Philippine constitutional engineering should be weakening the present traditional elite dominated political system, and strengthening the chances of political participation from the various classes. Some concerned people suggested the constitutional change to parliamentary system in order to strengthening party politics, and federal system to cope with the problems of regional conflicts, but such efforts failed repeatedly due to the conflict of political interests. Considering the present circumstance, it would be advisable to reform political party law and election system in the direction of strengthening political party system, and to expand the scope of local government system in the direction of devolving the centralized political power.

Objective : Recently many kinds of food therapies have sprung up to prevent or manage disease and to promote health. Seeing Korean history, the Korean medical doctors have been applying food therapy based on the thought that the dietary sources were as important as the medicine. Therefore, in this study, we designed a mobile edutainment game prototype with the goal of providing education about healthy food knowledge for users who belongs to different constitutional types. Materials and Method : We adopted the Sasang Constitutional Medicine as the medical background knowledge for our edutainment game design. Based on the user study, we developed the process of edutainment system which is composed of 'My game', 'My constitution', and 'My food'. Among the whole process, we developed a prototype for the core module - the 'My game' part. This prototype used a jumping game for mobile devices that is composed of training, level 1 and level 2 stages. Results : From the target user evaluation, it was proved that 1) in terms of the learning effect of healthy diet, the edutainment game we developed has a significant advantage over the conventional learning media. 2) after playing the edutainment game, the good and bad food identification accuracy based on picture and text format were increased by 44% and 42% respectively, and 3) target users perceived enjoyment while using this prototype, as well as showed positive intention to use this game as edutainment tool in the future. Conclusion : We designed and developed mobile edutainment game prototype to educate healthy food knowledge based on Sasang Constitutional Medicine. Through user evaluation, we proved that our prototype enhanced healthy food knowledge and that user accepted the prototype as a beneficial edutainment tool.

1. Objectives As a basic trial for identification of Sasang constitutional gene marker, we genotyped and analysed statistical relationships of STR(short tandem repeat) alleles and its distribution in each constitution. 2. Methods After obtaining basic constitutional data with questionnaire (QSCC II), decision of constitution was made by 3 different constitution specialists' diagnosis, and only the samples of specialists' agreement of each constitution by discussion were taken into this research. Using multiplex PCR kit, total 146 constitutional samples were amplified in 16 autosomal STR marker, genotyped, and analysed statistically. Among 16 markers, 15 were analysed in this study excluding the amelogenin marker is used for in gender identification. 3. Results and Conclusions It is difficult to determine the relationship between constitution and STR marker as the sample size is small, however, Penta D and vWA were shown to be related statistically with constitution. It has been know that STRs has no genetic informations, however there are some recent research results showing STRs as a regulatory element, relationship between microsatellite instability and repeat number and size, and post-transcriptional sigualing. STRs which is not known about its function currently, are proposed to have function and/or regulatory activities anyhow with Sasang constitution. It is believed that the results of this study can halp determine and deatify the markers related to Sasang Constitutional Medicien.

본 논문에서는 객관적이고 신뢰성있는 체질 식별을 위한 수단으로 기존의 O-링 테스트법의 단점을 보완한 O-링 경근력 계측시스템을 설계하여 임상에 적용하였다. 의사나 체질 식별 시술자의 손으로 행하던 O-Ring 측정을 공압 펌프와 액츄에이터를 이용하여 마이크로 컴퓨터로 제어함으로써 압력을 받은 실린더와 피스톤을 확장하게하여 고리모양으로 만든 피측정자의 손가락을 확장시키도록 설계하였다. 기존의 재래식 측정법이 단순히 측정자가 느끼는 주관적인 감각과 경험으로 피측정자의 경근력을 판단하므로 객관성이 결여되고 미세한 경근력의 변화는 판정이 불가능하였으나 O-링 경근력 계측시스템을 사용한 측정법은 미세한 경근력의 변화를 측정함은 물론 손가락의 확장거리 및 측정 시간까지 계측함으로써 경근력 변화를 판단하는 파라메터가 다양하고 신뢰성을 유지하게 하였다. 임상 실험 결과 O-링 경근력 계측시스템이 기존의 체질 진단법의 단점을 보완하고 보다 객관성있는 체질 진단의 가능성을 증가시키는 것으로 확인되었다. 차후 O-링 경근력 계측 시스템을 PC와 인터페이스시켜 측정된 임상 자료를 데이타베이스화 함으로써 많은 임상 자료를 기반으로 컴퓨터에서 전문가 시스템을 구축하여 체질 진단에 대한 보다 객관적이고 신뢰성이 높은 자동 진단 시스템으로 발전시키면 한의학적인 질변진단 분야에 기여할 수 있을것이다.

Objective : This research was conducted to evaluate the method of sasangin classification by voice analysis, The 2 pilot tests were thus designed to solve the following problems: 'What are the conditions at classification for sasangin by the voice analysis?' and 'What are the important variances of /a/ parameter?'. Methods: 122 volunteers Were examined to make a diagnosis of sasangin by QSCC II and they were disease-free and healthy, First, they said /a/ three times for 2 seconds in their usual voice, Second, they said /a/ for 2 seconds by the different ways of high tone, mid tone, and low tone. The sounds were collected by a recording program (cooledit 2000) through a Sony microphone (ecm-26l). We analyzed the voices by maltlab, the simulation tool. Results: There were no differences and were correlations when one said /a/ three times for 2 seconds in the usual voice. There were some things to correlate when one said /a/ three times for 2 seconds by the different ways of high speech, usual speech, and low speech. Others were nothing to correlate. We evaluated the value of sasangin classification method by only /a/ voice analysis. The hit ratio was average $66.3\%\;:\;soyangin\;67.9\%,\;taeumin\;68.0\%,\;soeumin\;63.9\%$. Conclusion: We must set up the conditions to use the method of sasangin classification by voice analysis. The value of sasangin classification method by only fa! voice analysis was a hit ratio of $66.3\%$.

Voice can be widely used to classify the four constitution types and to recognize one's health condition from extracting meaningful features as physical quantity in traditional Korean medicine or Western medicine. In this paper, we proposed the method to update the standard operating procedure (SOP) to acquire and record voices for extracting stable vocal features since they are sensitive to the variation of a subject's utterance. At first, we obtained pitch frequencies from vowels and the sentence and intensity form the sentence as features with voices acquired under subjects' utterance conditions and then the deviation ratios of features from median values according to the utterance conditions were obtained and the condition to minimize the ratio was selected as a new SOP. As a result, we decided the SOP for a subject to utter vowels with the length of 2s~1s and sentences with over 2s interval between them after practice, in consideration of the deviation and qualitative requirements. Stable voice features obtained from updated SOP produce accurate diagnosis, which will be developed and simplified for using in the u-Healthcare system of personalized medicine.
