Purpose: This review is to figure out evidence that suggest effectiveness of Korean Medicine treatments against cervical dysplasia. Methods: Studies on cervical cancer and cervical dysplasia were searched through 6 databases: Korean Studies Information Service System(KISS), National Discovery for Science Leaders (NDSL), Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information (Korean TK), Oriental Medicine Advanced Searching Integrated System (OASIS), the Journal of Korean Medicine, and the Journal of Korean Obstetrics & Gynecology. After that, the articles were extracted with reference point of Korean Traditional Medicine. Results: 37 articles were included lastly according to selection criteria. 3 of them were case reports on cervical dysplasia, and 34 were in-vitro studies on Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) positive cancer cell. In case reports, acupuncture, moxibustion, medical herbs and pharmacoacupuncture were used for treatments of cervical dysplasia with about 3 months. Experimental studies on cervical cancer cell showed that several herbs function with clear heat, eliminate stasis (淸熱解毒, 化瘀消腫) have anti-cancer effects inducing apoptosis. Conclusions: The results of articles are not enough to use in practice. Therefore, we indicates more advanced research methodology as follows: development of Korean Medicine treatment protocol with oral and external, in-vivo experimental study, and evaluation immunity index.

Objectives The purpose of this study is to analyze the trend of herbal medicine treatment, treatment's effect and stability for Crohn's disease by reviewing clinical studies published over the past 5 years. Methods 22 articles which were published from 2017 to August, 2021 were obtained from the ScienceON, Research information sharing service (RISS), Koreanstudies Information Service System (KISS), Oriental medicine advanced searching integrated system (OASIS), China national knowledge infrastructure (CNKI), Pubmed. We analyzed the literature in regards to the treatment methods and results. Results There were 6 case reports, 1 controlled clinical trial, and 15 randomized controlled trial and in most cases, herbal medicines and Western medicines were administered in combination. The pathology of damp-heat due to spleen deficiency was the most common, and Sijunzi-tang and Shenling Baishu san were the most commonly used. As a result of the treatment, it was found that the combined administration of the herbal medicine and the Western medicine was more effective than the administration of the Western medicine alone. Conclusions Herbal treatment of Crohn's disease induced high cure rate safely than when only western treatment was applied. Future studies on safety and studies that can suggest specific guidelines for the combined administration of western and herbal medicines are needed.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to implement a software to visualize tumor and its surrounding fiber tracts simultaneously using diffusion tensor imaging and examine the feasibility of our software for investigating the influence of tumor on its surrounding fiber connectivity. Material and Methods : MR examination including T1-weigted and diffusion tensor images of a patient with brain tumor was performed on a 3.0 T MRI unit. We used the skull-striped brain and segmented tumor images for volume/surface rendering and anatomical information from contrast-enhanced T1-weighted images. Diffusion tensor images for the white matter fiber-tractography were acquired using a SE-EPI with a diffusion scheme of 25 directions. Fiber-tractography was performed using the streamline and tensorline methods. To correct a spatial mismatch between T1-weighted and diffusion tensor images, they were coregistered using a SPM. Our software was implemented under window-based PC system. Results : We successfully implemented the integrated visualization of the fiber tracts with tube-like surfaces, cortical surface and the tumor with volume/surface renderings in a patient with brain tumor. Conclusion : Our result showed the feasibility of the integrated visualization of brain tumor and its surrounding fiber tracts. In addition, our implementation for integrated visualization can be utilized to navigate the brain for the quantitative analysis of fractional anisotropy to assess changes in the white matter tract integrity of edematic and peri-edematic regions in a number of tumor patients.

As changed the clinical environment, the interest on u-Healthcare service and systems has been increased. The ubiquitous healthcare(u-Healthcare) systems are constructed at the integrated environment that consists of various devices and systems basically such as personal health devices(PHDs) measuring body signals, information aggregators gathering the data transmitted from PHDs through wireless technology, and health information systems storing and managing personal health information transmitted from the information aggregators. International standards such as IEEE 11073 and HL7 have been specified for the interoperability of PHDs and health information systems, but the research on u-Healthcare systems that were developed and applied in the real clinical environment by adopting the standards was rarely conducted. Therefore, we developed an u-Healthcare system which can manage personal health information, such as blood glucose, blood pressure, and body composition, based on health information exchange standards. Moreover, we verified the stability of the developed system through clinical trial in patients with endocrine disease at the Kyungpook National University Hospital, and listed problems occurred during clinical trial and found their solutions.

EPCglobal has proposed the EPC Sensor Network to efficiently integrate and interoperate the RFID and WSN technologies based on the international standard EPCglobal Network. However, it can not deal with the sensor data without EPS. Also, it does not provide enough management function for the sensor data only. This study proposes USN management system that can deal with these weaknesses of EPC Sensor Network. Not only that, it is suitable for the medical environment properly. In the medical environment, it is important for the medical information to be integrated and interconnected via the standard for medical data. This proposed USN management system is based on SIP-HL 7 and can send RFID and WSN data based on SIP(Session Initiation Protocol). It can be interconnected with the existing hospital information system and exchange the information. Also it can design and materialize SIP Interface based on HL7 that allows the medical information to be exchanged and sent.
