Objectives This study intends to present the writing of standardized medical records based on Korean medicine on the basis of the Sanghanron symptoms. Methods 1. Excluding the sentences unrelated to the Sanghanron symptoms, the symptoms in the rest of sentences were extracted. 2. Classifying the extracted symptoms as per the review of system, the similar symptoms were integrated. 3. Calculating the frequencies of each symptom, each strain rate was calculated. Results & Conclusion: 1. Resulting from the analysis on 378 sentences in Sanghanron, a total of 1566 different symptoms were extracted. 2. As results out of total, the symptom related to the temperature sensation accounted for 17.9%, that related to sweat did 6.5%, that related to pulse did 12.4%, that related to eye and nose and mouth and tongue and throat as well as thirst did 7.7%, that related to stool did 11.6%, that related to urination and urinary organs did 4.9%, that related to language and mind and sleep and agitation as well as heart did 10.0%, and that related to vomiting and abdomen as well as digestive organs did 15.4%. 3. There were found many symptoms were described in accordance with the severity of basic expressions. For examples, in case of fever, there were mild fever and high fever, and in case of sweat, there were profuse sweating and slightly sweating. 4.

Through abdominal diagnoses, deficiency and excess, and cold and heat of the eight principles for differentiating syndromes can be determined, pathogens such as fluid retention, dry stool, retention of undigested food, abdominal mass, blood stagnation, stagnation of Gi, deficiency of Kidney Yang, and, spermatorrhea can be identified, nature and stages of the symptoms can be understood and then pathogenesis analyzed. Abdominal diagnosis can be one of primary factors in deciding treatment, expecting prognosis and treatment effect, and choosing herbal prescriptions. Representative herbs for epigastric stuffiness/fullness are Radix Ginseng, Pericarpium Citri, etc; for fullness of epigastrium, Rhizoma Pinelliae, Pericarpium Citri, Rhizoma Rhei, etc.; for severely rigid epigastrium, Radix Glycyrrhizae, Radix Ginseng, etc.; for epigastric pain, Rhizoma Pinelliae, Pericarpium Citri, etc.; for epigastric fullness and rigidity, Rhizoma Coptidis, Radix Ginseng, etc.; for feeling of obstruction in the epigastirum, Radix Bupleuri, Radix Ginseng, etc.; for palpitation in the epigastrium, Radix Glycyrrhizae, Ramulus Cinnamomi, etc. It is essential to rightly diagnose through comprehensive analysis of the data gained by the four methods of diagnosis, and in doing this, further studies on how to utilize abdomen diagnosis for clinical practice.

The aim of the study was the application of Radix Aconiti(附子) in the treatment of heart-systemic disease(心系疾患). We inquired into the prescriptions with Radix Aconiti (附子) in the treatment of heart-systemic disease(心系疾患) in many other aspects through 'Sanghanron'(傷寒論). The results were obtained as follows; The prescriptions with Radix Aconiti(附子) form about 18%, it's related text forms about 11%. Radix Aconiti(附子) was used with other 20 kinds of herbs in 7 categories-hyepyo(解表), jesp(除濕), selyul(泄熱), hwagihyengsu(化氣行水), onjungsanhan(溫中散寒), ikum(益陰), anhejitong(安蛔止痛). Among these herbs, the combination with Zingiver officinale Roscoe(乾薑) is focal usage, because the combination was used in 8 prescriptions out of 20. A fresh Radix Aconiti(附子) which was used with Zingiver officinale Roscoe(乾薑) is efficacious against poison of Radix Aconiti(附子). When this combination was used, it had been boiled for a long time in most cases, it is also helpful of counteracting poison. A Steamed Radix Aconiti(附子) was used with Zingiver officinale Roscoe (生薑). In the special feature of dosage of Radix Aconiti(附子), it was considerately used in many different conditions which includes strength or weakness of patients, and the critical or slight condition of illness. In the taking frequency and dosage of the medicine, it was applied the same. There are 2 methods of boiling, one is boiling separately from other herbs and the other is boiling all together. When boiling seperately, it works more quikly and strongly. In the case of severe 'rehan'(裏寒) which refuses warmed medicine, it was used with 2 other herbs(猪膽汁, 人尿) that take down from yang(陽) to ying(陰). The foci of prescriptions that contain Radix Aconiti(附子) is the type of Sayektang(四逆湯類), because Gungangbujatang(乾薑附子湯) does the important work in the prescriptions. The paradigm of Radix Aconiti(附子) treated palpitation, edema, diziness, confusion, numbness, iced limbs in the treatment of heart-systemic disease(心系疾患). In the usage of Radix Aconiti(附子), the above results need to be referred and further clinical studies will be necessary.

Chang Chung-ching(張仲景) in the Later Han(Eastern Han) Dynasty of Chinese history wrote the treatise on Diseases Caused by Cold Factors(傷寒論; Shang Han Lun) on the basis of the fundamental theory of Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine(黃帝內經; ECIM) after collecting medical treatment experiences until the Han Dynasty. It had great significance that Shang Han Lun was the origin of treating six-channels(六經) and there showed the peculiar guidelines on the diagnosis and treatment of oriental medicine to divide diseases into six-channels. The oriental medical doctors who had studied Shang Han Run thought highly of meridians and until now it was generally known that the chapter of heat in the Plain Questions of ECIM(黃帝內經, 素問ㆍ熱論) was the basis of Shang Han Run. The chapter of heat in the Plain Questions of ECIM was the first text in which the basic theory on six-channels according to the types of illness was introduced. In my point of view, the theory of treating six-channels had close relation to the Chapter of Channels in Miraculous Pivot of ECIM(黃帝內經, 靈樞ㆍ經脈篇) as well as the chapter of heat in the Plain Questions of ECIM. Therefore I took a look at the origin of treating six-channels in Shang Han Lun and illuminated again the meaning to compare the parts of in Shang Han Lun with the Chapter of Channels in Miraculous Pivot of ECIM. Conclusion: The, symptoms divided into six-channels in the chapter of channels in ECIM gave the fundamental basis of diagnosis and treatment basesd on overall analysis of signs and symptoms(辨證論治) an illness in the Zangfu(臟腑) in respect of meridians. Viewed in the light of diagnosis and treatment basesd on overall analysis of signs and symptoms(辨證論治), the symptoms of YangMing-channel(陽明經) in the Chapter of Channels in Miraculous Pivot of ECIM were, for the most part, accord with those of YangMing-disease in Shang Han Lun. Furthermore, the symptoms in Shang Han Lun were explained definitely and in detail. Therefore the theory of Shang Han Lun has been developed on the basis of ECIM with the changes of the times. YangMing-disease in Shang Han Lun implied medical cases in stomach meridian(胃經) and large intestine meridian(大腸經). Therefore Shang Han Lun was the foundation of treatment basesd on overall analysis of signs and symptoms(辨證論治) in respect of meridian as well as the text in which the steps of infectious diseases(外感病) of human bodies were explained.

Sasang-Medicine can classify all sympton with more simple classifying system than past Oriental-Medicine, because Sasang Byeon-Zeung(=classifying system of the sympton) separate by four clearly. The merit of this Sasang Byeon-Zeung can be seen more clearly on the part of the pathology of the expiratory-scattering and inspiratory-gathering of the Tae-Eum and Tae-Yang. On this view point, this thesis discussed the following subjects. 1. Investigate the theory of raising-falling and scattering-gathering developed in the Dongeui-Suse-Bowon. 2. Investigate the changes of the recognition of the Yang-Dog sympton and Jo-Yeol sympton argued as Interior-overheating-sympton of the Tae-Eum-In caused by liver's receiving heat. 3. Investigate the Yi-Je-Ma's view on the Eum-Yang in the argument of interior-overheating-sympton of the Tae-Eum-In caused by liver's receiving heat. As a result, the following conclusions were led to. 1. Dongeui-Suse-Bowon considers Spleen-Kidney has the couple motion of the raising Yang and falling Eum, and Liver-Lung has the couple motion of the expiratory-scattering and inspiratory-gathering. This theory of raising-falling and scattering-gathering is same as in the concept with the gathering. This theory of raising-falling and scattering-gathering is same as in the concept with the theory of raising-falling and floating-sinking of past Oriental-Medicine, but more consistently systematized in the pathology and prescription. 2. Dongeui-Suse-Bowon considers the Yang-Dog sympton and Jo-Yeol sympton as the interior-overheating-sympton of the Tae-Eum-In. As following the book, the fire of desire weeken the expiratory-scattering power of the lung, and deepen the shortage of the expiratory-scattering power comparison to the inspiratory-gathering power. Therfore the sympton can be treated by releasing ourselves from the desire and taking medicine strengthening the expiratory-scattering power. 3. In the early stage of the orintal medicine, they used prescriptions composed of So-Yang medicine and Tae-Eum medicine which can cool heat. Galgeun, Mawhang and Seungma were used in the age of Sanghanron, thereafter Jugoing's Jojung-Tang and Gongsin's Galgeunhaegi-Tang were developed as prescriptions of the interior-overheating-sympton of the Tae-Eum-In, and finally Tea-Uem-In Galgeunhaegi-Tang was settled by Yi-Je-Ma.
