Objectives : This study was designed to investigate the correlation between thoracolumbar junction and back-su points, Hwatahyeopcheok points for treatment of low back pain in the thoracolumbar junction syndrome that was suggested by Maigne R. Method : We Investigate the acupuncture points that was correlated with the location of thoracolumbar junction area. And We tried to find out a common point between thoracolumbar junction and back-su points, Hwatahyeopcheok points for treatment of low back pain. Results and Conclusion : 1. It is considered that these points such as $BL_{20}$, $BL_{21}$, $BL_{22}$, and Hwatahyeopcheok points that are located from 11th thoraic spinous process to 2nd lumbar spinous process are correspond to the thoracolumbar junction area. 2. It is suggested that acupuncture treatment on $BL_{20}$, $BL_{21}$, $BL_{22}$, and Hwatahyeopcheok points can release the tenderness of the muscles, recover autonomic nervous function and release smooth muscles and vascular contraction, so it can treat low back pain caused by thoracolumbar junction.

본 증례는 약 8 주간의 운동치료와 스트레칭 프로그램의 운용으로 요통의 감소와 함께 요부근력의 상승을 가져왔다. 환자 관리에 유용한 입원 치료를 통하여 타 연구에 비해 뛰어난 요부근력의 향상을 보였는데 이는 일정 기간 내에서 환자 관리에 따라서 요부 근력의 상승정도를 높일 수 있음을 보여준다고 생각된다. 추나치료, 침구치료 등이 미치는 영향에 대해서 일일이 제한을 두지 않았고 이러한 한방치료의 병행 자체가 미치는 영향에 대하여서는 보다 많은 case 연구가 필요하다고 생각된다.

Oryeong-San, Pangpungtongseong-San, Rangkyeoksanwha-Tang, Sipeemikwanjoong -Tang and Taeumjoui-Tang are not only examined using the code which are related to overweight in the QRIS but are also investigated the level of Free Radical using the Free Radical Measurement after steeping those 5 prescriptions in water. The results are as follows: 1. We indicated in the study of QRIS that 5 kinds of medicines which used most frequently In the treatment of the obesity appeared to affect the Immune system, spleen, kidneys, pancreas, the fatigue toxicity, TSH, and the metabolic disability but did not influence high on the contents of overweight and those of fatty cell, as well. in addition, there were no significant differences between the prescriptions as regards testosterone and progesterone. 2. In the Free Radical Measurement, Rangkyeoksanwha-Tang evaluated significantly high level of Free Radical, whereas others appear to have the similar level of Free Radical. These findings suggest that the treatment of the obesity affects particular body parts with respect to the control of overweight, although those medicines are not related directly to the areas(such as fatty cell Code), it is possible that they influence on the cure for the obesity. Furthermore, they indicate that with soaking prescription, Free Radical is not produced as much as we expected.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is researching for correlation between Moire topography results and questionnaire which include obesity rate, height, weight, posture, pain aspect (low back pain, headache, fatigue, neck pain etc), studying posture, school attendance method, menarche. Methods : The authors practiced Moire topography and questionnaire for primary & middle school 24,419 students [male 12,843, female 11,576] in Jeonbuk, korea in 2002. After we distinguished students who had abnormal finding in Moire topography and statistically analysed the data. Results : According to this research, the abnormal finding in Moire topography results was 37.3% (9,105 students), and students needed X-ray re-examination were 3.9% (953 students). According to statistical analysis, male/female and primary/middle school students have no difference in deformity degree of the body surface examined by Moire. Height and weight have low correlation with deformity degree of the body surface examined by Moire and menarche, pain aspect have no correlation. But, school attendance method by bicycle and $90^{\circ}$upright sitting in study posture is the best way to decrease the deformity degree of the body surface examined by Moire. Conclusions : Following this research, throughout Moire topography could detect trunk asymmetry that couldn't be found existing X-ray examination, and school attendance by bicycle and $90^{\circ}$upright sitting in study posture is good for school students to prevent back deformity.

Objectives and Methods : To evaluate the mechanism of oxidative damage by xanthine oxydase(XO) and hypoxanthine(HX)-induced oxygen radicals, MTT assay and NR assay were carried out after the cultured mouse spinal sensory neurons were preincubated for 4 hours with various concentrations of XO/HX. And the amount of total protein. neurofilament EIA. lipid peroxidation and LDH activity were measured, to evaluate the protective effect of Herbar Chelidonii(HC) water extract on cultured spinal sensory neurons damaged by XO/HX. after the cultured mouse spinal sensory neurons were preincubated with various concentrations of HC water extract for 3 hours prior to exposure of XO/HX. Results : XO/HX decreased significantly the survival rate of the cultured mouse sensory neurons by NR assay and MTT assay In proportion to concentration and exposed time. In proportion to concentration and exposed time on cultured spinal sensory neurons, XO/HX showed the quantitative decrease of neurofilament by EIA. the decrease of total protein amount by SRB assay and the Increase of lipid peroxidation as well as LDH. HC showed the quantitative increase of neurofilament and total protein, but showed the decrease of lipid peroxidation and LDH activity against the neurotoxicity of XO/HX. Conclusions : From the above results, it is concluded that XO/HX have a neurotoxic effect on cultured spinal sensory neurons and that the herbs extract, such as HC, prevent the toxicity of XO/HX effectively in that they decrease lipid peroxidation and LDH activity.

본 증례는 요각통 환자에게 다양한 한방치료를 시술하였으나 별무호전인 경우 M.T.S요법을 추가로 시행함으로써 양호한 결과를 보인 임상례이다. 요통환자가 장기간의 치료에도 차도가 없거나 호전에 미미했을 때 물론 의사의 마음에도 불가피하게 수술을 해야 될 것이라는 생각이 떠오르게 된다. 하지만 수술을 해야 할 것인지 혹은 하지 말아야 할 것인지 결정을 내리기 전에 충분히 다른 치료법을 시행해 볼 필요가 있다. 이에 저자는 장기간의 치료에도 차도가 없거나 호전이 미미한 요통 환자에게 M.S.T 요법을 시행할 경우 양호한 결과를 얻으리라 사료되어 보고하는 바이다.
