The traits of the patients and the effects of their treatment were examined. Results and Conclusions: 1. There were about as many male patients as there were female patients, but 21.3% of the patients who were female and who were in their 40's showed the most improvement, which makes them the biggest category in this study. 2. The main syndromes in which the patients showed improvement were hemi-paralysis, vertigo, and headache, and the ordinary symptoms in which the patients showed improvement were diarrhea, fatigue, and dry mouth. 3. The average food intake of the patients was highest and their feces had intermediate hardness (semi-soft). 4. The amount of the patients' sweat was either high(38.2%) or appropriate(38.2%) and they showed a dislike of heat over coldness. 5. Among the diseases that the patients previously had, high blood pressure. The above results show that Yeoldahanso-tang and Cheongpyesagan-tang can be considered beneficial to females in their 40's and to stroke patients whose food intake is normal, whose sweat level is either copious or appropriate, who dislike heat and who are suffering from high blood pressure.

From this book, $\ll$GeumGueyoryak Hakbyeongmaekjeungbyeongchi$\gg$, I finally got these conclusions of symptoms and pathology of Hakbyeong. 1. Hakbyeong has main symptoms of repetition of chillness and fever and its main pulse is pulse of Hyeon(弦) and position is in the middle of inside and outside. 2. Change in shape of pulse caused by Hakbyeong can have shape of pulse of Sak(數), Jee(遲), Kin(緊), Dae(大) and more kinds depending on patients constitution, the cause of disease, or whether he/she has been poisoned by other kinds. 3. After 15 days of symptoms, As Cheonki(天氣) and Inki(人氣) get stronger and Saki(邪氣) gets weaker, Jeongki(正氣) can be more recovered and the diseases can be disappeared. But if the disease dose not get away after another 15 days of showing symptom, that disease can be treated as cutting the Jingha under side of him/her. 4. The type of Hakbyeong which is diseased by the keeping the Haksa for long time, can be classified as Hagmo which has symptoms of chillness and fever outside, and of Jinggha inside, Danhag which has symptoms of difficulty with breathing, chest discomfort - caused by fever in the lung at ordinary times -, fever of extremities and nausea and that would make people worn out and thin after all, Onhag which has main symptoms of fever and Mohag which has symptoms of less fever and more chillness. 5. In this thesis it has been described, the Byulgabjunhwan(鼈甲煎丸), Baekhogagaejitang(白虎加桂枝湯), and Chokchilsan(蜀漆散) is the respective prescription for treatment of Hagmo, Onhag, and Mohag. From this conclusion, if the more research about the cause of disease, pathology and prescription of the each symptom from GeumGueyoryak hereafter, I could say more effective prophylaxis and treatment of epidemic disease like todays Hakbyeong can be found.
