A hiccup is an involuntary, spasmodic contraction of the diaphragm accompanied by a sudden closure of the glottis, which is reported commonly in patients with brain stem disease such as ischemic stroke, dolichoectatic basilar artery, tumor, encephalitis, and multiple sclerosis. 1) Intractable hiccup is an uncommon, chronic and incapacitating disturbance defined as a hiccup bout lasting more than 48hours or recurring despite various treatments and affecting male subjects more than female. 2) Constipation and hiccup are common symptoms in stroke patients and purgation therapy has been often used. We discovered two patients who had a hiccup symptom after purgation therapy(diarrhea) and so reported course and result of treatment.

본 논문에서는 멀티미디어 어플리케이션의 핵심인 오디오나 비디오와 같은 연속 미디어에서 hiccup의 발생을 최소화시키기 위한 기존의 연속 디스플레이, replication, request migration을 소개하고, 슬롯 예약 알고리즘과 완전 연결 버퍼링 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안한 두 알고리즘은 기존의 partial replication과 request migration에서 일어나는 hiccup 발생과, startup latency를 슬롯 예약과 디스크와 버퍼간의 완전 연결을 이용하여 최소화하였다. 향후 제안된 알고리즘은 구체적인 통계적 모델을 제시하여 다양한 재생 요구 빈도수에 따른 검증이 필요하다.

Hiccup is defined as an abrupt involuntary contraction of the diaphragm and intercostal muscles with sudden closure of the glottis 35 msec after onset. The term "intractable" is given to those hiccups with a duration ranging from 24 hours to more than 25 years. Short hiccup bouts are mostly associated with gastric distention or alcohol intake, resolved spontaneously or with simple remedies. In contrast, intractable hiccup is a rare but disabling condition which can induce depression, weight loss and sleep deprivation. Although the pathophysiologic mechanisms of hiccup are still poorly understood, wide variety of pathological conditions such as: brain tumor, abdominal tumor, myocardial infarction, renal failure, abdominal surgery etc., can cause intractable hiccup. A 58-year-old male who had suffered from hepatocellular cancer was consulted from medical department due to intractable hiccup. Initial treatment modalities with administrations of metoclopramide and chlorpromazine and nerve block including phrenic nerve block, cervical epidural block and glossopharyngeal nerve block were not effective. Administration of midazolam and baclofen however achieved desirable effect.

Generally, hiccup is a temporary symptom, however, persistent or intractable hiccup that repeats continuously or does not respond to medical treatments makes the patients very painful. In this case, a seventy-two years old patient with pontine infarction showed symptoms as aspiration pneumonia and persistent hiccup a few days after hospitalized. We considered him as excess heat pattern and prescribed Yangkyuk-san. In the result, not only the frequency and intensity of hiccup were remarkably decreased but also the inflammation and overall symptoms by pontine infarction were improved.

In the literatual study on the hiccup, the results were as follows; 1. Hiccup is usually named as Hae yek, Hyel yek, Yel yek. 2. The cause of hiccup are stomach cold, rising of stomach fire, stagnation of vital energy and stagnation of phlegm, yang deficiency of spleen and kideny, deficiency of stomach-yin, or mental disorder due to the stagnation of phlegm, dyspepsia, depressed vital energy. 3. The treatment of hiccup are dispel cold by warming the middle warmer due to stomach cold, expel the heat-evil to loose hollow-organ due to rising up of stomach yin, regulate vital energy and dissipate phlegm due to stagnation of vital energy and stagnation of phlegm, warm and recuperate both of spleen and kidney due to spleen and kidney yang deficiency, nourish the stomach to promote the production of body fluid due to deficiency of stomach yin. 4. The prescription of hiccup are frequently used Gamchogungangtang Gangwhalbujatang Leejungtang Guelpigungang-tang due to stomach cold, Sosihotang Daesihotang Sojaganggitang due to rising up of stomach fire, Sunbokdaejasuktang due to stagnation of vital energy an dstagnation of phlegm, Bojungikgitang Goakhwanganwyisan Samsoeum due to spleen and kidney yang deficiency, Jaeumganghawtang Daebohoan due to deficiency of stomach yin, Hwanglyenjuklyetang Leejintang Guelpitang due to the stagnation of phlegm, Daewhajungeum due to dyspepsia, Mokhwangjogisan due to depressed vital energy.

This case show that emotional stress and wekness of gastrointestinal function occur a chronic hiccup and eructation(during 3 months), oriental medical therapy can cure completely this symptom. Seven emotional stress(anger, delight, sadness, thinking, worry, fear, horror) occur various pathologic changes. Hiccup is caused by CNS, psychologic, thoracic, abdominal factor etc. In oriental medicine, GI trouble regarded as a very importent factor that occur hiccup and eructation. Besides, emotional stress is a very important factor as well. This patient have an introvert personality ordinary times. One day, she had a miscarriage by hers husband's assault. After that time, she suffered from very serious GI trouble(dyspepsia, epigastric pain, anorexia). And then hiccup, eructation, weight loss(10kg/3months) is occured. This patient diagnosed only gastritis. This symptom did not stop during 3 months, regardless of western medical therapy(some western drugs medication, fluid supply etc). After oriental medical therapy(herb medicine;Yukunjatang, acupuncture;CV12, CV6, S36, CV17, H7, SP6, P6, moxibustion;VI2, CV6, S36, negative therapy;back area and traditional oriental medical psychotherapy;ventilation, support, desensitization and family interview) put in operation during 15 days, patient completely recover from hiccup, eructation and anxiety disorders.

본 논문에서는 멀티미디어 어플리케이션의 핵심인 오디오나 비디오와 같은 연속 미디어에서 hiccup의 발생을 최소화시키기 위한 기존의 연속적인 재생, 재생 요구 이동, 복제, N 버퍼링 기술들의 단점을 보완한 완전 연결 버퍼링 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안한 알고리즘은 기존의 재생 요구 이동 기술에서 불균형적인 재생 요구 분포에 따라 야기되는 지연 시간을 최소화시키기 위해 그룹, 버퍼, 디스크 사이에 완전 연결을 통하여 하나의 재생 요구에 대해 전체 디스크를 검색할 수 있는 특징이 있다. 향후 제안된 알고리즘은 구체적인 통계적 모델을 제시하여 다양만 재생 요구의 빈도 수에 따른 검증이 필요하다.

Objective: The purpose of this research is to investigate Chinese clinical studies of the treatment of hiccup after stroke with herbal medicine. Methods: We used the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) database to search for clinical studies about using herbal medicine to treat hiccup after stroke. Results: Nineteen clinical articles Until August 31, 2017 were analyzed. The most commonly used herbal prescription was Xuanfudaizhe-tang (旋覆代?湯). According to analysis, the most commonly used medical herbs were Haematitum (代?石), Inulae Flos (旋覆花), and Pinelliae Tuber (半夏). Clinical symptoms, total incidence rate of adverse reaction, recurrence rate, symptom improvement time, patient satisfaction comparison, and dietary status improvement were used to evaluate the treatments. The effective rate of the treatment group was 86.0-97.8%, significantly higher than control group in all papers. Side effects occurred much less frequently in the treatment group than in the western medicine control group. Conclusion: The treatment of hiccup after stroke with herbal medicine was shown to be highly effective in 19 studies. Additional well-designed clinical trials are needed; this study can be used as a basis for further research regarding the treatment of hiccup after stroke.
