Objectives This study was conducted to investigate clinical studies about Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine therapy for Legg-Calve-Perthes disease. Methods We searched clinical studies about Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine therapy for Legg-Calve-Perthes disease through China National Knowledge Infrastructure. 17 articles published from 2000-2021 were finally chosen and analyzed by published year, study design, number of samples, diagnosis criteria, evaluation criteria, treatment period, follow up period, treatment method. Results Herbal medicine, external treatment, Chuna massage therapy were performed for traditional Chinese medical treatment. For Western medicine treatment, conservative treatment and surgical treatment were performed. Above them, herbal medicine and conservative treatment were mostly used for treating Legg-Calve-Perthes disease.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to review the thread embedding treatment studies of obesity in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Methods : We reviewed 59 studies on cat-gut-embedding treatment of obesity which were published from 2005 to 2012. The studies were searched using the data base-CAJ(China Academic Journals; 中國期刊全文數據庫)(2005~2012). Results : Selected 59 studies were divided into 27 case series and 32 control studies. The number of studies has increased since 2005, more rapidly in 2011~2012. Most case series reported were about effectiveness of thread embedding monotherapy treating obesity. Control studies reported were about effectiveness of thread embedding treatment compared with acupuncture, electroacupuncture, and medicine. Most studies on thread embedding treatment of obesity showed that its effectiveness was very good.

Background : Approximately 50% of patients with low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma (LGESS) develops recurrent disease, mainly in lung or pelvis. Peritoneal metastasis of LGESS is an extremely rare phenomenon. Optimal treatment for metsatatic LGESS has not been established. Case : A 43-year-old woman had been diagnosed with LGESS with aortocaval lymphadenopathy. Despite of surgical resection, adjuvant radiation, chemotherapy and hormonal therapy, multiple lung and peritoneal metastasis developed after 15 months from initial treatment. Additional chemotherapy was done, but disease progressed. She had treatment with the allergen-removed Rhus verniciflua Stokes (aRVS) from November 2010 to May 2011. About 5 months to progression was observed. Conclusion : We suggests that aRVS could be an alternative treatment option for the metastatic LGESS patients. Further clinical studies on the efficacy of aRVS against metastatic LGESS are needed.

Objectives : Comparative review was rendered to evaluate strengths and weaknesses of two common treatment approaches of treatment based on syndrome differentiation and treatment based on syndrome differentiation from disease. A typical symptom of headache from hypertension was chosen for substantial approach of this review. Methods : Pros and cons of two different approaches to disease were evaluated based on literatures and texts focusing treatment based on syndrome differentiation and treatment based on syndrome differentiation from disease. Headache can be correlated with hypertension yet it can be induced by multiple other factors, and headache may/may not accompany hypertension. Hypertension is an example of treatment based on syndrome differentiation from disease and headache can be an example of treatment based on syndrome differentiation. Results : Treatment based on syndrome differentiation can give more autonomy and flexibility in approach to the disease, Intuition, experience, and traditional medical theory can be applied with ease. However, management and eradication of diseases are difficult and standardization of treatment is not easy among practitioners. Treatment based on syndrome differentiation from disease incorporated merits of both eastern and western medicines, achieving more evidence based diagnosis and treatment. Eradication and standardization of disorders are possible with the latter approach. Conclusions : Comparing two systems of treatment based on syndrome differentiation and treatment based on syndrome differentiation from disease with emphasis on hypertension and headache yielded medical values. Treatment based on syndrome differentiation from disease appears to be superior in medical values and effectiveness, but further evaluation and interest are needed to make advancement in Korean traditional medicine.
