Background: Allergic rhinitis(AR) is a heterogeneous disorder that despite its high prevalence is often undiagnosed. It is characterized by one or more symptoms including sneezing, itching, nasal congestion, and rhinorrhea. And it is frequently accompanied by symptoms involving the eyes, ears, and throat, including postnasal drainage. There are many different causes of rhinitis in children and adults. Approximately 50$\%$ of all cases of rhinitis are caused by allergy. In the case of rhinitis caused by allergens, symptoms arise as a result of inflammation induced by a gamma globulin E-mediated immune response to specific allergens such as pollens, molds, animal dander, and dust mites. The immune response involves the release of inflammatory mediators and the activation and recruitment of cells to the nasal mucosa. AR is similar to 鼻？, hypersensitive rhinitis in Oriental Medicine. I think hypersensitive rhinitis is including of AR, vasomotor rhinitis and non-allergic rhinitis related with eosinophil increased and so on. Purpose: To perform a clinical analysis of hypersensitive rhinitis including allergic rhinitis and estimate the efficacy of Oriental Medical treatment. Objective: We studied 96 patients who had visited our hospital with complaints of nasal symptoms from March 2000 to February 2002; they had the signs more than 2 - nasal obstruction, watery discharge, sneezing and eye or nasal itching. Parameters Observed & Methods: We treated them with acupuncture & herb-medication. Sometime they used aroma oil or external medicine. 1) the distribution of sex & age groups 2) the clinical type based on duration & the severity of symptom 3) the breakdown of complication & pasl history of Otolaryngologic or allergic disease 4) the clinical assessment and classification of rhinitis(sneezers and runners & blockers) 5) the associated symptoms and signs 6) the classification of Byeonjeung 7) the classification of prescriptions and 8) the efficacy of treatment. Result: 1. In the clinical type of based on duration, the intermittent type was 42.7$\%$ and the persistent was 57.3$\%$. 2. We observed the severity of symptoms based on the quality of life. The mild type was 24.0$\%$ and the moderate-severe was 76.0$\%$. 3. In the clinical assessment and classification of rhinitis, the sneezers and runners type was 69.8$\%$ and the blockers was 30.2$\%$. 4. The most common family history with otolaryngologic or allergic disease were allergic rhinitis(17.7$\%$), urticaria, paranasal sinusitis and T.B.(3.1$\%$). 5. The most common past history with otolaryngologic or allergic disease were paranasal sinusitis(14.6$\%$), atopic dermatitis and asthma(8.3$\%$). It was 31.3$\%$ they had a family history and 44.8$\%$, past history. 6. The most common complication was paranasal sinusitis(15.6$\%$). In decreasing order the others were otitis media with effusion(9.4$\%$), GERD and headache(6.3$\%$), asthma, bronchitis, nasal bleeding and allergic dermatitis(5.2$\%$). 7. Classification through Byeonjeung : ⅰ) 39 cases(34.9$\%$) were classified as showing Deficiency syndrome. The insuffficiency of Qi was 17.7$\%$, deficiency of Kidney-Yang, 12.5$\%$ and Lung-Cold, 10.4$\%$. ⅱ) 57 cases(59.4$\%$) were classified as showing Excess syndrome. The Fever of YangMing-meridian was 35.4$\%$, Lung-Fever, 24.0$\%$. 8. The efficacy of treatments showed: an improvement in 22cases(22.9$\%$); an improvement partly in 24 cases(25.0$\%$); no real improvement or changes in 16 cases(16.7$\%$); and couldn't check the results 18cases(18.6$\%$). Conclusion: We suggest that this study could be utilized as a standard of clinical Oriental Medical treatment when we treat hypersensitive rhinitis including allergic rhinitis.

살모넬라는 일반적으로 식품에 의해 전파되고 심각한 공중보건 문제를 야기하는 병원성 미생물로, 살모넬라에 대한 숙주의 감수성을 결정하는데 숙주의 유전적 요소가 중요한 역할을 담당한다. Cysteine-rich intestinal protein1 (CRIP1)은 LIM/double zinc finger protein family에 속하는 단백질로, 인간의 소화관과 폐, 비장을 포함한 인체 전반적인 부위에서 폭넓게 발현된다. 최근 CRIP1은 여러 면역 질환의 핵심적인 마커로서 보고되고 있지만, 숙주의 세균 감염에 대한 CRIP1의 영향은 아직 알려진 바가 없다. 살모넬라는 CRIP1 유전자를 굉장히 높은 수준으로 발현하는 소장의 파이엘반 내로 침입한다고 잘 알려져 있기 때문에, 본 연구에서는 살모넬라 감염과 CRIP1 결핍 간의 상관관계를 규명하는 것을 목표로 하였다. 우리는 ex vivo 분화 실험을 통해서 CRIP1 결핍은 골수-유래 대식세포의 식세포작용과 골수-유래 수지상세포의 보조자극 인자의 활성을 변화시키지 않는다는 것을 발견하였다. 게다가, 유세포 분석 데이터를 통해 야생형 마우스와 CRIP1 유전자 결핍 마우스 간의 MHCII⁺CD11b⁺ CD11c⁺ 수지상세포 및 MHCII⁺F4/80⁺CD11b⁺ 대식세포가 비슷한 수준을 나타낸다는 것을 보여주었다. 흥미롭게도, 비장의 단핵구와 장간막 림프절의 호중구의 기저 수준은 야생형 마우스보다 CRIP1 유전자 결핍 마우스에서 더욱 풍부하게 나타났다. 요약하자면, 우리는 CRIP1이 Salmonella Typhimurium 감염에 대한 숙주의 감수성과 골수성 세포의 활성에 불필요한 유전자임을 명확하게 증명하였다. 또한, 항원에 노출되지 않은 CRIP1 유전자 결핍 마우스에서 나타난 면역세포의 각기 다른 비율은 CRIP1 유전자의 발현 조절이 다양한 감염성 질환에 대한 새로운 면역치료 접근법일 수 있음을 시사한다.

선천성 면역은 숙주의 물리적 방어벽을 뚫고 침입하는 감염성 질병 원인균에 대항하는 첫 번째 방어로서 아주 중요한 역할을 한다. Mannose-binding lectin (MBL 또는 mannan-binding protein, MBP)은 혈청 내에 존재하는 면역성 단백질로서 감염 후 즉시 유발되는 acute phase response의 특정 단백질이다. MBL 단백질은 세균, 바이러스, 곰팡이, 기생충 등의 탄수화합물 구조에 결합하여 식균 작용을 돕거나 보체경로를 활성화 시킨다. MBL 단백질은 C-말단이 탄수화물을 인식하는 도메인이며, 연결 목 부위와 콜라겐 부위로 구성되어 있다. 혈청 내의 MBL 농도가 낮으면 높은 빈도로 면역결핍현상이 관찰된다고 알려져 있다. MBL 단백질의 기능과 유전에 대해 많은 연구가 되어져 왔으나 아직 MBL 단백질 복합체 등에 대한 연구는 많이 이루어져 있지 않다. 따라서 MBL 연구에 필수적인 MBL cDNA 제조와 재조합 단백질의 합성, 그리고 재조합 단백질을 항원으로 사용하여 polyclonal antibody를 생산한 연구 결과를 보고하는 바이다. 본 연구결과로 획득한 MBL cDNA, 재조합 단백질과 anti-MBL 항체는 앞으로의 MBL 연구에 절대적으로 필요한 도구가 될 것으로 생각된다.

Gastric cancer shows the most high friquency in cancers that occurs in Korea. The western medicine treatment for gastric cancer has radiation and surgery, chemical treatment. While, oriental medicine cures the gastric cancer by herb-drugs, acupunture , moxa and srigma. With just one way of treating gastric cancer can't be effective remedy. Because each medicine has a strength and weakness. Thus, it is effective treatment when two medicine combins and supplement each other. We got the following result about a trend of oriental and westernal combination treatment for gastric cancer through studing records. 1. The western medicine treats gastric cancer patient with surgery first and right after surgery. They need on assembly treatent such as chemical and immune treatment. In oriental medicine, they treats gastric cancer patients with differentiation of symptone and signs and treatment(辨證施治)[for example:incoordination between liver and stomach(肝胃不和), insufficiency of spleen and stomach(脾胃虛弱), stagnation of blood stasis and toxic agent(瘀毒內阻), deficiency of yin by stomach heat(胃熱傷陰), reinforcing both qi and blood(氣血雙虧), stagnation of damp-phlegm(痰濕凝結)] and cure for them by acupuncture and stigma, too. 2. In combination with oriental and western medical treatment principle of gastric cancer by each stage is as follows. First stage and second stage gastric cancer is cured with radical surgery mainly. After operation, the herb of invigoration of the spleen(健脾), coordination of the stomach(和胃), and smoothing the liver and regurating the circulation of qi(疏肝理氣), is used for good gastroenteric condition. The second stage patients can be concidered using in combination with chimical treatment. The third stage gastric cancer is treated with radical surgery or with temporizing surgery. After those surgery, herb-drugs treatment is used jointly. The fourth stage patients who have no extensively metastasis or local contraindication can undergo temporizing and curcuit surgical operation. Herb-drugs and chemical treatments are used together for patients after operating. If he has operating contraindication, he would be treated with herb-drugs and chemical treatment. 3. In case of using in combination with oriental and western medical treatment as follows. As for herb-drugs with chemical treatment, reinforcing both qi and blood(補益氣血), invigorate the spleen and the stomach(健脾和胃), reinforcing liver and kidney(滋補脾腎), clear out the heat and relieve the toxic agent(淸熱解毒), can be used and with radiation treatment, clear out the heat and relieve the toxic agent(淸熱解毒), promoting the production body fluid and moisturizing the vicera(生津潤燥), reinforcing both qi and blood(補益氣血), invigorate the spleen and the stomach (健脾和胃), reinforcing liver and kidney(滋補肝腎) etc, can be used. 4. According to the research of oriental and western medical combination treatment are the 5-year-survival degree with oriental and western medicine combination treatment was for better than that just with oriental or western medical treatment. Especially, it has good effect on the third, fourth stage gastric cancer. That is, the middle and the end of stage gastric cancer. 5. The merits of oriental and western medicine combination treatment are lengthers one's life and diminish the bad effect of chemical treatment and radiation treatment be near completion, prevent from relapsing, maintain the balance in their eveirenment of body and improve immunity.

최근에 환자연명의료결정법이 제정되었고, 2017년 8월 4일부터 효력을 발휘하게 된다. 이 법은 임종 과정 환자를 연명 의료 중단의 대상으로 하고, 말기 환자는 호스피스 완화의료를 받도록 하고 있는 것이 특징이다. 김할머니 사건은 뇌손상으로 지속적 식물상태에 빠진 환자에 대하여 가족이 인공호흡기 제거를 요청한 사건으로, 2009년 대법원이 일정한 요건을 인정하여 인공호흡기 제거를 허용한 사건이다. 김할머니 사건에 대하여 환자연명의료결정법을 적용하였을 때, 과연 대법원과 같은 내용의 결정이 내려 질 수 있는지 가정적 적용을 시도하였다. 환자연명의료결정법은 임종과정 환자 연명의료결정에 환자의 의사내용을 요건으로 하기 때문에, 도리어 인공호흡기 제거가 불가능할 수도 있고, 과잉적 의료개입이 지속될 가능성이 있다. 반대로 말기 환자의 경우는 연명의료중단에 대하여 환자의 자기결정권을 인정하지 않기 때문에 김할머니 사건에서 인공호흡기 제거가 불가능하다고 해석할 가능성도 있다. 현재 법에는 암, 후천성면역결핍증, 만성폐쇄성호흡기 질환, 만성간경화 및 보건복지부령으로 정하는 질환을 말기 환자로 규정하고 있는데, 보건복지부 지침 등을 통하여 김할머니와 같은 지속적 식물상태를 명확하게 제외하다는 해석이 필요하고, 전체적으로는 말기 환자의 사전 연명 의료 의사에 대한 자기 결정권 인정 여부에 대하여 재논의도 필요하다.

Although the officially confirmed incidence of the acquired immune deficiency syndrome(AIDS) has remained low thus far in Korea, the progression of the pandemic has been rapid, concerned about an eventual increase in transmission. Until a vaccine or cure is found, public information and education remain an important weapon against AIDS. For the year 2000, the current WHO projection is that there will be a cumulative total of 40 million HIV infections in man, woman and children, of which more than 90％ will be in the developing countries. The incerased mortality among adults and children has raised concerns that AIDS may become so devastaing as to reverse positive population growth rates and wipe out entire population. In order to plan for the rising incidence of patient with AIDS, an assessment of AIDS-related cognition and behavior, attitude of the recognized high-risk groups is necessary. Considering that undergraduates have sexuality active and more oriented toward sexual concerns than other ages. Adolescents today are more sexually involved than in the past: The media, including films, music, and television, reinforce sexual concerns by preseating images of highly sexual adolescents. Incidence of both petting and sexual intercourse in higher and occurs at earlier ages, they are important reservoir of AIDS infection. Hence, it has become important to emymerats and describe the knowledge, attitude and behavior of them, I want.. This information will eventually guide the direction of change in public policies and education programs to meet the challenges of AIDS. The objective of this study were to identity Knowledge, Attitude, Experience of Sex and AIDS in Korea. The data were collected by survey at Korean Federation for AIDS Affairs, INC. and J university, K junior college. After October in 1993, surveyed with 507 student during their's college days in Seoul. The questionnaire was designed to provide information on sex and AIDS-related knowledge and attitudes and experience. AIDS-related knowledge was measured by using 26 questions on mode of transmission and AIDS-related attitudes were measured by 7 questions, AIDS-related experience was measured by 5 questions. There were the main dependent variables in our study, In conclusion, students during their university day need to develop AIDS-preventive education programs. Clearly, the many AIDS-prevention educational effort need to be guided by well trained health agents. Financial supports from all sectors (i.e., public and private) of our society are required to achieve that end. Further researches on AIDS-related Knowledge and Attitude and behaviors of undergraduates are needed for the development of comprehensive AIDS prevention programs.

35 theses conducted in Korea on the topic of senescence or anti-oxidant were classified on the basis of research methods, animals used for the experiments, and research items. Evaluating these research works with respect to the Free Radical Theory, the following conclusions were reached. 1. Of the 17 theses written in the Oriental medicine aspect, three theses used a single herb, nine theses used a complex prescription, four theses concentrated on the usage of the medicinal acupuncture, and one research paper focused on using scientific components. Common objection of these papers were on the verification of the efficacy of herbs. 2. Of the 18 these written in the Western medicine aspect, five theses used a single drug, seven theses conducted a research on the changes due to senescence, and 6 papers were on variety of topics. The main focus of these works were on the mechanism and pathology related to the senescence rather than on the suppression of senescence. 3. Among the theses written in the Oriental medicine perspective, a total of 48 herbs were utilized. 26 of these herbs has a tonification function on the Kidney. Six out of nine complex prescription mentioned above has a function of tonifying the Kidney. 4. With respect to the research subjects used on the experiments, 8 theses have used Senescence-Accelerated mice, 13 theses have used Sprague-Dawley mice, and remaining 7 papers have used human or other animals. 5. These are the categorization of the research items used: the weight (11) and weight changes of the visceral organs (9), the measurement of the content of peroxide-disease (9), the measurement of enzyme vitality (21), the blood and urine test (10), the experiment concerning immune system (3), the influence on the hepatic capability of metabolizing foreign substance (3), the effect on hepatic cell protection (3), the measurement of both the suppression of Free Radical and ability to create Free Radical (2), the measurement of effect of suppresing MDA(malondialdehyde) (4), the effect of eliminating DPPH Radical (2), and experiements about the functions (2). 6. The rate of vitalization of well known anti-oxidants such as Superoxide dismutase (SOD), Protein-bound SH, Nonprotein-bound SH, Glutathione(GSH), Catalase, and etc. were tested in 17 theses. Considering the conclusions mentioned above, the theses related to the senescence published in Korea elected different animals used for experiments, research items and the methods of research, the end result seems to be a lack of objectivity. Thus, I would argue that research methods to overcome such a deficiency need to be developed systematically.
