Arteriosclerosis is a pathologic term that contains hardening of arterial wall, loss of arterial elasticity and stenosis of artery. To diagnose this disease, conventional angiography, MRA, transcranial doppler ultrasonography are commonly used. And it causes various clinical phases by a region of the disease. In oriental medicine, arteriosclerosis is classified into congested fluids(痰飮), blood stasis(瘀血), stagnation of Gi(氣滯) and treated by Herb-Med, acupuncture, cupping, moxibustion, and the like. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of oriental medical therapy on cerebral arteriosclerosis. A patient with cerebrovascular disease admitted due to dizziness, mild dysarthria, tinnitus, anxiety disorder and his Brain MRA showed severe arteriosclerosis in right anterior cerebral artery(ACA) and middle cerebral artery(MCA). Every day, we administered to patient Herb Med and Herb pills. Also, acupuncture, moxibustion were done, too. As a result of the treatment, the patient's follow up Brain MRA showed improved state of ACA stenosis.

Introduction : Atopic dermatitis(AD) is chronic eczematous dermatitis which is related strongly to a family history of atopic disease and hereditary disposition. Adolescence and adult atopic dermatitis (AAD) patients have been overlooked because they were relatively small population and AAD were considered merely consecutive of infant and childhood AD. Objective : The purpose of this study was to estimate the efficacy of oriental medical treatment and management on chromic AAD with nummular eczema and breast eczema. Methods : We tented this case with herb-medication, herb-irrigation, acupuncture, negative therapy, full spectrum visible lay therapy (by carbon arc) and external application (SA1, Siwon Ilhwang-Go). We observed for 7 months. Results : The grades of the severity of AD with nummular eczema, breast eczema were lower only by the oriental medical treatments and managements. Conclusion : Considering the above results, more study is needed on the case with AAD with diffuse nummular eczema, effectiveness of external application and correlation between immunological and results of oriental media treatments.

Objectives: The purpose was to take a closer look at the fundamental principles of Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) and to investigate its clinical applications for Korean medical fields. Results: IPL is a type of light treatment that is employed by radiating the short-pulse wave, which is transformed from high-intensity light. It may be used to stimulate skin along meridian channels in clinical fields of Korean medicine like acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping therapy, Guasha therapy, and other related traditional techniques. So, it may be feasible to treat not only lentigines, freckles, facial dermatitis, and acne, but also other applications. In addition, it could be recommended for use with herb remedies or herb facial mask packs. Conclusions: IPL may be a plausible method in phototherapy of Korean medicine.

Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is a general term that refers to infection of the internal reproductive organs such as the female uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. PID is caused by germs that invade the genital organs, causing the acute inflammatory reaction, and chronic PID is to have a recurrence of PID because of the lack of effective treatment of acute PID. Symptoms of PID include pelvic pain, fever, leukorrhea, infertility, and fatigue. Treatments for PID can be improved by combining herb medicine therapy, intestinal irrigation, or the therapy that put herb medicine on the abdominal region with antibiotics, or analgesic drugs.

Cerebral palsy is a nonprogressive brain disorder occurring during gestation, parturition or neonatal period with resultant abnormality of posture or other deficits. Recently the early diagnosis and early treatment has been emphasized in management of cerebral palsy. We studied 1 cerebral palsied child that having been treated anticonvulsive therapy in Sangge-Baek Hospital(상계 백병원) for 1 year. We improved the patient's general condition through dispensing Herb-Med(養胃湯 加味), thus we could reduce the antiepileptic & Sedative drug dose simultaneously controlling convulsion. In this point, we could find the possibility of east-west integrated medicine's cooperation and the fact that Herb-Med could be helpful to controlling convulsion.

The purpose of this research is to investigate the synergistic effect of herb medicines with hydrocortisone and the regulation effect on the immune system of Onbitang and Dangguijakyaksan at the supernatant of PHA-P stimulated PBMC in the patients with minimal change nephrotic syndrome(MCNS). From the measurement of the concentration rate of IL-4, sCD23 and IL-13, the experiment yielded the following results : The Onbitang group showed a greater tendency to suppress IL-4 and IL-13 levels in MCNS group with no statistical significance. It showed very strong suppression in soluble CD23 compared with control group in MCNS group. The Dangguijakyaksan group, though not statistically significant, was inclined to suppress IL-4 level in MCNS group. It shows stronger suppression in sCD23 and IL-13 levels than these of control group in MCNS group. As for the synergistic effect, the group of hydrocortisone with herb medicines(Onbitang or Danguijakyaksan) produced more suppressive effect to IL-13 level in MCNS group than that of hydrocortisone-only group. They also tended to suppress sCD23 and IL-4 levels, though no statistical significance can be given. As to the suppressive effect of 1L-13 level, the group of Onbitang with hydrocortisone showed an increase of 22.6%, while the group of Dangguijakyaksan with hydrocortisone showed 14.7%. So Onbitang is more effective than Dangguijakyaksan. From the above results, a combinative treatment(herb medicines with hydrocortisone) can be an alternative method to substitute for steroid therapy. It can be a more effective therapy than steroid-only therapy because it is expected to reduce side effects and it shows more special effect to suppress IL-13 level. Based on the present results, further investigation concerning the serum IgE elevation is needed.

In distribution of onset, less than 7 days was the most(58.8 %), followed by less then 28 days(20.6 %). 3. Most patients used western medical hospital(47.1 %) and oriental medical hospital(44.1 %) as primary hospital. 4. In chief complaint, cervical pain was most(32 cases, 94.1%), the others were low back pain(22 cases, 64.7 %), back pain(5 cases, 14.7 %), chest pain(5 cases, 14.7 %). 5.

And statistically significance compared after-treatment with before-treatment group(p<0.005).

납중독은 가벼운 빈혈에서부터 경련을 동반한 신경장애에 이르기까지 다양한 임상증세를 나타내며, 뼈나 연부조직에 침착되어 비가역적인 장애를 남기므로 임상적으로 중요하다. 특히 소아는 소화관을 통한 흡수율이 높고 배설율이 낮아 납중독의 영향에 예민한데 혈중 농도와 개인차에 따라 심한 복통 및 지능저하, 경련 등의 비가역적인 신경계장애를 남길 수 있어 조기진단 및 치료가 중요하다. 이에 저자들은 살빼는 목적으로 비전문가에게 처방받은 환약으로 제조된 한약을 복용하여 빈혈을 동반한 심한 복통을 주소로 내원한 형제들에게 자칫 출혈성 장질환으로 여기고 지나칠뻔 하였으나 환약복용의 과거력을 단서로 혈중 납농도 및 환약의 납 성분 분석을 통해 확진한 2례를 경험하였기에 이를 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia(BPH) is the most common benign tumor seen in the western male, and it is found in 50% of men over 50 years of age. It is characterized by the formation of large discrete lesions in the periurethral region. As they enlarge, these nodules tend to compress the urethra and cause partial or almost complete obstruction of .urine flow. The etiology of BPH is uncertain, but the increasing incidence with advancing age suggests the possibility of an imbalance between male and female sex hormones. In the past, most patients have had multiple indications to support the decision to initiate therapy. But both the urologic surgeon and the patient must be clearly aware of the results that can be expected and the risks involved in achieving them. The aims of this study are to investigate and summarize the current trends of treatment for BPH so as to suggest the effective and available way to treat the disease. In Oriental medicine, the BPH is recognized as uroschesis and ischuria, and the etiology is mainly in stagnated blood and insufficiency of the kidneys. The point of treatment of BPH is recovery of urination, and the treatment can be approached in two ways through herb drugs and acupuncture. Some of the herb drugs have substances which reduce BPB. Acupuncture therapy stimulates the pelvic plexus and is reported to be effective for voiding. Suppository, massotherapy, rectal injection, locus injection and attachment of herb drugs to the navel or the acupoint are announced as the effective treatments. So, this study of the approach and application of these treatments on BPH would be necessary.
