The purpose of this study was to analyse scientific according to period of rehabilitation training of ACL patients. ACL patients seven subjects participated in this study. Gait (1.58 m/sec) analysis was performed by using a 3-D Cinematography, a Zebris system and a electromyograph system. The data were analyzed by paired t-test. The joint angles were recorded from the ankle, knee, hip joints. Peak max dorsi-flexion and peak max plantar-flexion identified significant differences (p<0.05). Another angles were no significant difference. Vertical force (Fz) and max pressure variables improved 6 month RTP better than 3 month RTP. EMG were collected from 4 muscles (rectus femoris, biceps femoris, gastrocnemius, tibialis anterior) with surface electrides in gait system. EMG signals were rectified and smoothed data. EMG signas were no significant difference but they also improved 6 month RTP better than 3 month RTP. More research is necessary to determine exactly what constitutes optimal rehabilitation training period for ACL patients.

PURPOSE: This study examined the relationship between the cervical lordosis angle (CLA) and the craniovertebral angle (CVA) and between CVA and a cross-sectional area (CSA) of the cervical muscles. METHODS: In 17 healthy college students, the CLA was measured using a posterior tangent technique. The CVA was analyzed using photographic images, and the CSA of the cervical muscles, including longus colli, longus capitis, and sternocleidomastoid, was evaluated using computerized tomography. The Pearson's correlation coefficient was used to determine the relationship between these variables and a neck disability index. RESULTS: The CVA correlated with the CLA and with a CSA of longus colli (r = .487, p = .047 and r = .592, p = .012, respectively). The CLA correlated with a CSA of longus colli (r = .578, p = .015). CONCLUSION: This study clarified the relationship between the postural, structural, and muscular changes in the cervical regions. A significant correlation was observed between the CVA and a CSA of the longus colli with the CLA and between the CVA and the CSA of the longus colli. Prescription strengthening exercises for the deep neck flexors for individuals with a forward head posture and reduced cervical lordosis are useful.

Purpose: Patients experiencing chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) apply various palliative care as well as drugs in their daily life to alleviate symptoms. There is a need to identify the influence of these efforts and patients' psychosocial status on the relief of CIPN symptoms. This short-term prospective study investigated how prescription drugs, non-pharmacological behaviors (exercise, massage, and heat therapy), and psychological states (social support, depression, and anxiety) affected CIPN symptoms. Methods: Participants scheduled to receive postoperative platinum or taxane-based chemotherapy were enrolled consecutively. CIPN was measured with the Neurotoxicity-12 subscale of the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy/Gynecologic Oncology Group-Neurotoxicity-12 instrument. Data were collected three times during the 4 or 5 cycles of chemotherapy. Results: At the end of the 2nd chemotherapy cycle, 93.1% of participants reported CIPN symptoms. Multiple regression analyses showed that a heat therapy (β= -.34, p< .001), massage (β= -.21, p= .012), and walking 5 times or more per week (β= -.26, p= .021) provided relieve for CIPN symptoms. Depression (β= .19, p= .027) significantly exacerbated CIPN symptoms. Conclusion: These results suggested that a comprehensive management program that includes walking, heat therapy, massage, and mood therapy should be encouraged. Moreover, patients should be educated at chemotherapy initiation to understand appropriate interventions that can relieve CIPN symptoms.

In this study, we examine Cho Heon-yeong's medical theory in obstetrics and gynecology by looking at the contents and prescriptions of 『Buinbyeongchiryobeob (婦人病治療法)』. This book is a clinical text on obstetrics and gynecology written in the 1940's. This book consists of an Introduction, Jeungchi (證治), Yangjinhanchi (洋診漢治), Cheobangnonhae (處方論解) and refers to 『Donguibogam(東醫寶鑑)』, 『Keongakjeonseo (景岳全書)』, 『Junguihaksajeon (中醫學辭典)』, 『Jejungsinpyeon (濟衆新編)』, 『Uihakipmun (醫學入門)』 and 『UijongKeumkam (醫宗金鑑)』. Cho Heon-yeong's theory in this book has the following characteristics. First, his medical eclecticism is centered on Korean Medicine, with incidental use of Western medicine. Second, he regarded weakness (虛證) as a vital factor in obstetrics and gynecology. Third, he added "mental state" to the list of basic physiological characteristics of women. Fourth, he presented a new diagnostic standard based on a spectrum of fire (火) and cold (冷). There are 363 prescriptions in this book, and 171 of them are from 『Donguibogam (東醫寶鑑)』. The books frequently used prescriptions are all designed to supplement (補藥). There are 48 prescriptions that original to Cho Heon-yeong. Additionally, this book contains eopsaeng (攝生) and pretended stimulation therapies and exercise methods.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of 12 weeks of WB-EMS training on body composition and heart rate variability based on BMI Level in Women. The subjects of the study were premenopausal women, and they were classified into the BMI-N(n=15) group for BMI<25, the BMI-1(n=16) group for BMI=25~29.9, and the BMI-2(n=9) group for BMI>30. And then, WB-EMS training was performed of 3 times a week for 12 weeks. Body composition and HRV were measured before and after the participation in exercise, which were subjected to a repeated-measures two-way ANOVA. In the case of a significant interaction between time and group, paired sample t-tests were conducted for a post-hoc analysis within each subject group. Tukey's method was used for post-hoc testing of differences between groups, and the significance level was set at 0.5. The results were as follows; First, The effect of WB-EMS training was found in all variables of body composition. In particular, Weight, BMI, FFM, and FM decreased the most in the BMI-2 group, followed by the BMI-1 and BMI-N groups. %BF and VF decreased the most in the BMI-2 group. Second, There was a difference in BPM in all groups, and the BMI-2 group showed the greatest decrease. There were differences in SDNN and RMSSD for each group, and there was no difference according to obesity level. There was no difference in LF, HF, and LF/HF ratio. In conclusion, it was confirmed that WB-EMS training can be an exercise therapy that has a positive effect on the body composition change and cardiac circulatory system in women with a high level of obesity.

Background : Even though it is well known that pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) improves exercise capacity, and the quality of life, in patients with chronic lung diseases, not many patients can attend hospital based intensive PR in Korea. The purpose of this study was to develop a method for a home-based PR program, and study its effectiveness. Materials and Methods : Twenty patients with chronic lung diseases were randomly divided into two groups : a home PR group comprising of 10 male patients, with a mean age of 70 years, and a control group comprising of 10 male patients, with a mean age of 65 years. We developed exercise programs, depending on the exercise capacity of each patient, which were easy to do at home. The PR program consisted of a 12 week period of enforced aerobic (mostly walking) and muscle strengthening exercises, as prescribed by the exercise specialist, in accordance with the functional capacity of the patient. In addition to the education, nutritional and psychiatric consultation was undertaken, and respiratory muscle training arranged. Patients visited hospital every 2 weeks for evaluation and exercise prescription. Results : All patients finished the 12 week course of therapy. Following the home PR, the endurance times and work capacity of the upper and lower extremities were significantly increased in the treatment group in comparison to the controls. The six minute working (Eds note:should) 'working' read "walking"?) distance was increased from $465{\pm}60m$ to $508{\pm}37m$ and the maximal inspiratory pressure from $72.8{\pm}27.2cmH_2O$ to $91.4{\pm}30.9cmH_2O$. The quality of life, as assessed by St Georges Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ), was also improved following PR. (Eds note:do you have figures for before and after, and a reference for the SGRQ?i.e. for the main paper.) Conclusion : The home PR program we developed seemed to be applicable, and effective, to most of the patients with chronic lung diseases in this study.

Monovision is defined as correcting one eye for distance vision and the other eye for near vision. Single-vision contact lenses are used for each eye. The patient selectively suppresses one eye while using the other eye. This study was performed to measure binocular function and patient satisfaction with monovision induced by adding +3.00D to spectacle prescription for distance vision in nonpresbyopic students. This study comprised 144 nonpresbyopic students with monovision induced by adding +3.00D to spectacle prescription. Monovision was induced by undercorrecting the nondominant eye by adding 3.00 diopters for near vision and correcting the dominant eye with emmetropia for distance vision. For research of the binocular function on Monovision. This study was tested the obstacle course, water pouring test, catching and throwing, bead classification including the stereopsis test. These tests were comparative to the normal binocular state. As a results, the stereopsis have a significant reductions in Monovision. There was no significantly difference between monovision group and control group in monovision exercise (obstacle course, water pouring test, catching and throwing, and bead sorting) at near and distance. This study indicates that monovision is an effective and reasonable therapeutic modality for correcting presbyopia. By the application of above methods, this study could be used the student for the practical practice and understand on the Monovison.
