Objectives : This experiment was performed to determine the effects of the Jeseubsungi-tang(JSSGT) on hyperlipidemia-induced by hypercholesterolemic diet in mice. Methods : C57BL/6 mice were sensitized with a hypercholesterolemic diet for 6 weeks. Experimental group was treated with $150mg/d{\ell}$ concentrations of JSSGT for 4 weeks (once a day). Results: JSSGT-treated mice showed a body weight decrease compared to normal group. JSSGT-treated mice showed a significant decrease in cholesterol, total cholesterol, triglyceride, ALT and LDL-cholesterol levels compared to hyperlipidemia-induced control group. However, HDL-cholesterol levels in JSSGT-treated group significantly increased compared to the hyperlipidemia-induced control group. Conclusion : These results suggest that JSSGT is effective in treating hyperlipidemia. Because only hyperlipidemic mice were studied, further research is needed.

Objective: The aim of this case report was to describe the effects of traditional Korean medicine on a patient suffering from central dizziness caused by a lateral medullary infarction Methods: The patient was given a series of Korean medicine therapy treatments, including Jeseubsungi-tang, acupuncture, and cupping, for 37 days. We measured the progress of this case using a numerical rating scale (NRS). Results: After the treatment, the NRS score for dizziness decreased, and the headache almost completely subsided. Conclusions: This clinical case study indicated that Jeseubsungi-tang could be effective in relieving central dizziness and headache caused by lateral medullary infarction.
