Background: Many patients with glaucoma have difficulty using antiglaucoma eye drops because of dry eye symptom. In this prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, we evaluated the effect of Korean Red Ginseng on dry eye syndrome in patients with glaucoma treated with antiglaucoma eye drops. Methods: Forty-nine participants were allocated to the Korean Red Ginseng (3 g/day; n = 24) or placebo (n = 25) groups for 8 weeks. Tear film stability, fluorescein corneal staining, conjunctival hyperemia, tear production, grade of meibomian gland dysfunction, and dry eye questionnaire (Ocular Surface Disease Index) were evaluated at baseline and on completion of the treatment. Results: Almost all patients displayed dry eye symptoms and signs at baseline. After the 8-week intervention, Korean Red Ginseng supplementation significantly improved the tear film stability and total Ocular Surface Disease Index score, as compared to placebo (p < 0.01). Conclusion: Korean Red Ginseng supplementation may provide an additional treatment option for dry eye and patients with glaucoma using antiglaucoma eye drops.

일부 도시 중년여성을 대상으로 안면부위별 피부상태를 파악하고자 비침습적 측정방법을 이용하여 유 수분, 멜라닌 홍반 정도를 관찰하였고, 주관적으로 자각하는 유 수분 유형을 조사하여 객관적 측정값들과의 관련성을 보고자 하였다. 안면부위별 측정 결과, 수분량은 눈가>이마>볼, 유분량은 이마>눈가>볼 부위 순이었으며, 홍반지수는 이마>볼>눈가, 멜라닌지수는 눈가>이마>볼 부위 순이었다. 객관적 유분 측정값과 주관적으로 자각하는 유분유형은 일치성을 나타내었다. 유분량 홍반지수, 멜라닌지수의 각 측정값들은 유의한 양의 상관관계를 보였다.

This research is based on self-filling survey which 656 dental hygienists who work in, seoul, the metropolitan area, jeon-buk area participated on July 2006 through August 2006. This survey was analyzed the relationship between the subjective symptoms(6 types) and outdoor air quality($O_3,\;NO_2,\;CO,\;SO_2,\;PM_{10}$) As follows analyzed results. The health condition of dental hygienists were "Feel Good" more than 50% in last month. The experience the symptoms level is higher then non-experience level in "Dry eye, itch, smarting", "Headaches", "Fatigue and sleepiness", "Red eye", "Hypersensitivity", "Dorsalgia, omarthralgia, cervicodynia". We anticipated that the more experience the subjective symptom the more likely it is that outdoor air quality will be high rate level. But we could not find the uniformity in metropolitan-area and seoul-area. In the case of jeonbuk area, the group's pollution density levels which experienced the subjective symptom were appeared high rate than inexperienced group except $SO_2$. It probably comes from sensibility for an air pollution in this area. Dental hygienists who work in jeonbuk area have an unusual sensibility for an air pollution because outdoor air quality of jeonbuk area was rule good rather than others area. especially $SO_2$ was revealed out even though low rate level in inexperienced group it is that the number of cars in jeonbuk area is increasing rapidly.

건성안은 다양한 환경노출로 인해 생길 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 눈에 자극감을 줄 수 있는 자외선 차단제와 건성안의 연관성에 대해 조사하고자 하였다. 총 30명(남28명, 여2명)을 대상으로 하여 비침입성 눈물막 파괴시간 검사(NIBUT)와 맥모니 설문, 자각설문을 실시하였다. 자외선 차단제를 바른 후의 NIBUT값이 바르기 전보다 감소하는 것을 알 수 있었고, NIBUT값의 차이가 심했던 C제품이 자각 설문에서도 가장 불편했다고 답변하였다. 자각 설문에서 자극이 있다고 답한 대상자는 15명(50%), 자극이 없다고 답한 대상자는 15명(50%) 이였으며, 자극이 있는 집단의 맥모니 설문 점수가 높게 나왔다. 건성의안 기준에서도 위와 같은 결과이었으며, 모두 경계성 유의성을 나타냈다(p=0.049, p=0.051). 본 연구를 통해 자외선 차단제가 눈에 영향을 줄 수 있고, 건성안에 연관이 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 디지털 환경 요인들로 인해서도 눈에 자극증상과 변화를 줄 수 있으므로 환경유해물질 및 디지털 환경이 눈건강에 미치는 영향을 파악하는 융합 연구가 필요할 것이다.

Vertigo is one of the most common complaints encountered by physicians and the patients are steadily increasing. These patients are exposed to the risk of secondary accidents such as falls due to vertigo. There are two ways to improve this symptom: medication and rehabilitation. Although temporary symptomatic improvement may be expected in patients treated with medication, vertigo may recur and medication can delay central compensation. In contrast vestibular rehabilitation exploits central mechanisms of neuroplasticity to increase postural stability and enhance visual-vestibular interactions in situations that generate conflicting sensory information. However, vestibular rehabilitation may be compromised by incorrect performance of exercises, and there is a need for active effort and interest from the patient during rehabilitation. To solve these problems, we decided to apply FOVE HMD for eye-tracking and Unity3D to create virtual reality. The proposed eye-tracking based algorithm calculates the concentration of users with eye tracking data and calculates the motion width of the patient with nystagmus, thus the severity of the patient according to the score can be determined. According to our experimental test against healty group and patients group, this result showed the meaningful data to use define the contents result.

During the 8 months from October 1985 to May 1986, the survey was performed on 211 leprosy patients over fifty years old, settled in the four villages of Iksan county, North of Chulla province. In that obserbation, we investigated the frequency and the degree of impairments according to sex, age, and anatomical location by the 'guides to the evaluation of permanent impairment'. The noticeable findings were made as follows: 1) Frequency of impairment by anatomical location was significantly higher in hand than eye and foot (p<0.01). 2) Frequency of impairment was significantly increased in eye according as age increase (p<0.01). 3) The degree of impairments of all patients was the highest in hand as 28.7%. 4) By the kinds of impairment, the flextion and the amputation were most common in hand and foot, and loss of central vision was common symptom in eye. 5) The degree of impairments of 211 leprosy patients was shown as 44.1% and increased according as age increase.

Objective : The efficacy of auricular acupuncture for the treatment of allergic rhinitis has been reported. Methods : Twelve rhinitis patients patients were enrolled in this study. Every patient received auricular acupuncture 2 times a week during 4 weeks. Auricular acupuncture points used were M101(肺), M13(副腎), M16(內鼻), M22(內分泌), M33(額), M55(神門). Patients nasal symptoms and QOL were assessed before and after 4 weeks treatment by total nasal symptom score(TNSS), total non nasal symptom score(TNNSS) and Rhinoconjuctivitis quality of life questionnaires(RQLQ). Results : 1. Among items of TNSS, nasal congestion-sneezing were significantly improved. and Total TNSS Scores were significantly improved.(p<0.05) 2. TNNSS were no significant difference. 3. Among items of RQLQ, nasal&eye problem&nasal symptom were significantly improved.

목적: 본 연구에서는 신축사무실 건물 및 재실자를 대상으로 식물적용에 따른 안구건조 증상 및 실내공기질 등에 대한 변화를 평가하고자 하였다. 방법: 세종시 정부청사 신축건물 및 사무실 재실자를 대상으로 하였다. 식물적용에 따라 실내공기질을 측정하였으며, 휘발성유기화합물류와 알데하이드류 및 온 습도를 측정하여 평가하였다. 안구건조 증상은 Ocular surface disease index(OSDI)를 이용하여 정상, 경도, 중등도, 및 중증으로 분류하여 측정하였다. 결과: 식물적용사무실에서 휘발성유기화합물류의 감소율이 다소 높게 나타나 식물적용으로 인한 저감효과가 있는 것으로 조사되었다. 식물적용 재실자에서 새건물증후군 증상 점수가 점차적으로 감소하였고, 식물미적용사무실 재실자에서는 새건물증후군 증상 점수가 상승하였다. 재실자의 안구건조설문결과에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 관찰되지 않았다. 결론: 식물적용 사무실 내 유해물질의 감소효과가 있었고, 재실자를 통한 설문조사결과 안구건조 및 새건물증후군 증상에 긍정적인 효과는 있었다. 개인의 민감도 등에 의한 차이 및 현장조사로 인한 연구의 제한점 등을 보완한 장기 연구가 필요하다.
