In this paper, the beneficial effects of IHD deployments on the society were investigated, which is one of the enabling technologies related to the AMI investments. By focusing on the energy use reduction due to the feedback information from IHD, various favorable effects can be induced and quantified. The societal benefits should make a reasonable contribution to ensure that IHD should be prerequisite to the AMI deployments. In future, the quantification methodology would be applied to characterize and estimate the time-varying rate based demand response programs.

In-Home Display (IHD) is one of the most popular ways to induce voluntary customer participation in energy savings. Various communication technologies are used for recent IHD implementations, but most IHD systems are designed for each house because of their limitations such as communication coverage area and operation complexity. In this study, 400MHz RF communication is used for economical large-scale deployment of IHDs especially for apartment complexes that represent typical residentioal environment in Korea. Since it is essential to use internal batteries to increase the usability of IHD, the frequent changes of them should be avoided. By dividing communication data into 3 types such as common data, long term data, and short term data depending on their update periods, energy efficient communication protocol is designed and proposed. In result, the quantity of data and the battery consumption of IHD are reduced to 23.4% and 31.5% each without harming service quality.

This study conducted to investigate incidence rate and association of serum lipid profiles with incidence of ischemic heart disease. Study subjects consisted of 417,642 adults aged 30 years and over, who underwent physical examination and responded to questionnaire from health examination center of 19 university general hospitals. Hazard ratio of risk factor for ischemic heart disease (IHD) were calculated by Cox's proportional hazard regression model adjusted for ages, BMI and lifestyle (drinking, smoking and exercising). For TC/HDL ratio, hazard ratio of IHD in male increased from 1.21 times to 1.84 times increase with TC/HDL ratio, and that in female also increased from 1.26 times to 1.86 times. For TG/HDL ratio, hazard ratio of IHD in male increased from 1.17 times to 1.49 times increase with TG/HDL ratio, and that in female also increased from 1.42 times to 1.97 times. For LDL/HDL ratio, hazard ratio of IHD in male increased from 1.26 times to 1.82 times increase with LDL/HDL ratio, and that in female also increased from 1.26 times to 1.68 times. In conclusion serum lipid indexes are the significant risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. The higher the concentration of TC, LDL and TG is, the lower the concentration of HDL is, hazard ratio for IHD increased. Ratio of TC/HDL, TG/HDL and LDL/HDL were also verified to be significant risk factors for IHD.

An ischemic heart disease(IHD) is a anemic state of heart caused by disproportion between heart's demand and supply of oxygen. A patient who has this IHD feels serious chest pain called angina pectoris. In a keen condition it leads to a necrosis of heart muscles, known as myocardial infarction. In an ischemic heart disease the ECG waves gives us useful information of patients' heart. And CK(creatine kinase) in serum and Troponin T are the principal factors in diagnosis of IHD. In this study, the IHD patient classified by Sasang Constitutional Medicine had a notable medical effects. The symptoms of patient are disappeared and waves of ECG is closed to normal. The result of CK in serum is also recovered. So we report the healing process and results of this patient in this study.

Objectives: Ischemic heart disease (IHD) is a major cause of death in Korea and known to result from several occupational factors. This study attempted to estimate the current magnitude of IHD mortality due to occupational factors in Korea. Methods: After selecting occupational risk factors by literature investigation, we calculated attributable fractions (AFs) from relative risks and exposure data for each factor. Relative risks were estimated using meta-analysis based on published research. Exposure data were collected from the 2006 Survey of Korean Working Conditions. Finally, we estimated 2006 occupation-related IHD mortality. Results: For the factors considered, we estimated the following relative risks: noise 1.06, environmental tobacco smoke 1.19 (men) and 1.22 (women), shift work 1.12, and low job control 1.15 (men) and 1.08 (women). Combined AFs of those factors in the IHD were estimated at 9.29% (0.3-18.51%) in men and 5.78% (-7.05-19.15%) in women. Based on these fractions, Korea's 2006 death toll from occupational IHD between the age of 15 and 69 was calculated at 353 in men (total 3,804) and 72 in women (total 1,246). Conclusion: We estimated occupational IHD mortality of Korea with updated data and more relevant evidence. Despite the efforts to obtain reliable estimates, there were many assumptions and limitations that must be overcome. Future research based on more precise design and reliable evidence is required for more accurate estimates.

Objectives : Oriental medical doctors usually use the three-finger pulse diagnosis method to observe disease. Since it is difficult to diagnose ischemic heart disease (IHD) objectively by this diagnostic method, we performed the study to diagnose it as soon as possible by using Yuk Bu Jung Wee Jin Mac(六部定位診脈) and electrocardiogram(ECG). Methods : Patients who had abdominal discomfort were observed by Yuk Bu Jung Wee Jin Mac(六部定位診脈) and we presumed they had heart disease and checked them with electrocardiogram(ECG). Results : We diagnosed it early by using Yuk Bu Jung Wee Jin Mac(六部定位診脈) and electrocardiogram (ECG). Conclusions : The study suggests that it is easy to diagnose IHD early using Yuk Bu Jung Wee Jin Mac(六部定位診脈) and ECG. More data related to IHD is needed.

Purpose : Sayeok-tang (Sini decoction, SND) is a cold-dispelling formula used for cold deficiency syndrome and is composed of Aconiti Lateralis Radix Preperata, Zingiberis Rhizoma, and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma. It is used for diseases such as myocardial infarction, heart failure, acute and chronic gastroenteritis, and gastric effusion. This study proposes the possibility of expansion of basic research and clinical applications for ischemic heart disease (IHD) through systematic analysis of domestic and foreign studies on SND. Methods : We collected studies within the last 10 years on the use of SND in IHD and excluded those lacking relevance. Selected studies were classified by research method and the main themes of the studies were analyzed for each classification. Result: Out of 15 studies, there were 5 animal studies, 8 metabolite analyses in animals, 1 in vitro study, and 1 systematic review. Our review suggests that SND may be used as an adjuvant to nitroglycerin and percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty, and may improve symptoms and quality of life of patients with IHD. Myocardial protective effects through antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, and anti-hypertensive actions were confirmed through these studies. Effects on carbohydrate, protein, and lipid metabolism were also reported. Conclusions : This study suggests that SND has potential as a treatment for IHD.
