Background : Mahuang (Ephedrae Herba, Ephedra sinica $S_{TAPE}$) has been widely used to treat respiratory disease in Asian over the past thousand years. The main ingredient of Mahuang is ephedrine, whose affects on the autonomic nervous system induce some adverse effects like vasoconstriction, hypertension, tachycardia, miosis, insomnia, dizziness, headache, etc. Although there were lots of reports about adverse effects of Mahuang, there were no clinical studies which evaluated the adverse effects of Mahuang on the autonomic nervous system by objective numerical value in the past decade. Objectives : The purpose of this report was to provide an objective assessment of state-trait anxiety that is caused by Mahuang, and to identify anxiety of Mahuang according to different Sasang constitution classifications. Methods : The study design was a double-blind randomized placebo-controlled trial. The subjects of this study were 79 adults aged between 20 to 40 who agreed to participate. Because 8 adults dropped out, a total of 71 subjects entered the study. They were allocated through randomization to a Mahuang group (N=50) and placebo group (N=21). Each group took three opaque capsules (every opaque capsule containing 2g of Mahuang or none) twice a day. To compare the state and trait anxiety before and after taking Mahuang, we checked the anxiety by using STAI-KYZ. Results : The following results were obtained. Short-term administration of Mahuang significantly increased state-anxiety, but in the placebo group, there were no significant changes in state-anxiety. In the Mahuang group except females, there was more significant increase in state-anxiety of Soeumin than Soyangin and Taeumin in the 2nd measurement. Conclusion : It is suggested that the ingestion of Mahuang can increase sympathetic activity and induce anxiety. There was a significant difference among Sasang constitution classification. Especially, the response is stronger in Soeumin than other constitutions. If we use Mahuang according to the Sasang constitution classification in clinic, we could not only minimize the anxiety but maximize the potential curative value.

1. Background and Purpose ${\ulcorner}$DongyiSooseBowon${\lrcorner}$ is the book that was mixed ${\ulcorner}$GaboBon${\lrcorner}$ and ${\ulcorner}$KyungjaBon${\lrcorner}$ which was written by DongMu. But hardly any clause or text of the GaboBon excepting ${\ulcorner}$DongyiSooseBowon${\lrcorner}$ has been described. At the year of 2000, the society of sasang constitutional medicine acqired ${\ulcorner}$HamsanSachon DongyiSooseBowon GaboGubon${\lrcorner}$ which is seen as a written copy of ${\ulcorner}$GaboBon${\lrcorner}$. According to Lee Sung-Su who is the great-grandson of DongMu's older brother, ${\ulcorner}$HamsanSachon DongyiSooseBowon GaboGubon${\lrcorner}$ was worked by Lee Jin-Yoon who is the grandson of DongMu's older brother, and it was copied by Han Min-Gab and now is owned by Lee Sung-Su who is son of Lee Jin- Yoon. 2. Methods This paper was written in order to understand of ${\ulcorner}$HamsanSachon DongyiSooseBowon GaboGubon${\lrcorner}$ through the study to focus on the bibliographical character. 3. Result and Conclusion 1) It is reasonable that ${\ulcorner}$HamsanSachon DongyiSooseBowon GaboGubon${\lrcorner}$ had copied to the original ${\ulcorner}$DongyiSoose Bowon GaboGubon${\lrcorner}$ which was written by DongMu. 2) We can find the character of ${\ulcorner}$HamsanSachon DongyiSooseBowon GaboGubon${\lrcorner}$ as follows. (1) It has the table of contents, the definition of the number of the texts, and the article number of each texts. (2) ${\ulcorner}$KyungJaBon${\lrcorner}$ and ${\ulcorner}$SinchukBon${\lrcorner}$ has different number of the texts about ${\ulcorner}$The general remarks on the Soyangin${\lrcorner}$. (3) It is different with original ${\ulcorner}$GaboBon${\lrcorner}$ because of the extracting marks of the text. (4) It is supposed that it has the pares which was additionally or wrongly amended by someone. 3) We can consider that the character of original ${\ulcorner}$GaboBon${\lrcorner}$ which was written by DongMu from ${\ulcorner}$HamsanSachon DongyiSooseBowon GaboGubon${\lrcorner}$ as follows. (1) ${\ulcorner}$The Discourse on Nature and Order${\lrcorner}$${\sim}$${\ulcorner}$The Discourse on the Four Principles${\lrcorner}$ is original articles of ${\ulcorner}$GaboBon${\lrcorner}$. (2) The head title of${\ulcorner}$The Discourse on the Origin of Oriental Medicine${\lrcorner}$ was not in ${\ulcorner}$GaboBon${\lrcorner}$. (3) It is not clear whether ${\ulcorner}$The Discourse on the General Health Maintenance${\lrcorner}$ and ${\ulcorner}$The Discourse on Identifying Four Constitutions${\lrcorner}$ is original texts or amended texts of ${\ulcorner}$GaboBon${\lrcorner}$. So it is required more study about it.

1. 연구목적 동서양과 고금을 통해 많은 체질 이론들이 있었지만 그 중에서도 이제마의 사상의학은 이론과 임상이 체계적으로 연계되어 있어서 널리 사용되고 있다. 이제마는 동의수세보원의 사단론(四端論), 변증론(辨證論) 등에서 체질진단의 근거로 외형(外形), 심성(心性), 증(證)의 세 가지를 제시하였으나 세 가지 기준별 임상적 중요도에 대한 연구가 이루어진 바가 없어서 임상에서 세 가지 진단 기준을 종합적으로 활용하는데 많은 어려움이 있는 형편이다. 그러므로 향후 세 가지 체질진단 기준을 임상에 적용하여 각각의 기준이 지니는 임상적 중요도를 검증하는 연구가 필요하다고 보며, 본 논문에서는 이러한 임상적 연구에 앞서 기존의 체질진단 연구를 외형(外形)과 심성(心性), 증(證)의 세 가지로 분류, 고찰하는 기초적 연구를 하고자 한다. 2. 연구방법 <동의수세보원(東醫壽世保元)>과 사상의학회지 및 사상의학 관련 도서를 중심으로 문헌적 고찰을 하였다. 본론에서는 그간의 연구들을 세 가지로 분류하여 열거하였으며. 고찰에서는 임상적으로 활용이 가능하거나 이미 완료된 연구 위주로 논하였다. 3. 연구결과 (1) 외형(外形)에 관한 연구 경험과 직관적 관찰을 통한 기상(氣像)과 사기(詞氣)위주의 연구가 선행되었고 이를 바탕으로 체형(體形)과 용모(容貌)의 실제 계측을 통한 각 체질별 이미지 정형화 연구가 진행되고 있다. 체질진단의 정확률 제고를 위해서는 이 두 가지 방법을 균형있게 활용해야 한다. (2) 심성(心性)에 대한 연구 각종 연구나 진단의 객관화 등을 위해 자기보고식 설문조사 기법이 체질진단에 응용되고 있으며, 현재까지 개발된 설문지를 이용함에는 사상변증내용설문조사지(I)의 판별식을 이용한 결과와 QSCCll의 결과를 함께 참고하는 것이 적절하다. (3) 증(證)에 대한 연구 체질증과 체질병증에 대한 연구는 원리론적 연구와 체질별 임상증상 유형에 관한 연구, 기존의 증치의학적 병증관을 사상의학적 병증개념에 적용시켜 해석하고자 하는 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 향후 현대적인 의미의 다양한 병증을 사상의학적 관점에서 해석하고 진단하기 위한 객관화 연구가 필요하며, 또한 체질의 편차를 야기시키는 근본적 문제인 장국(臟局)의 대소(大小) 및 장리(臟理)에 대한 연구도 필요하다.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: In Oriental medicine, certain foods may be beneficial or detrimental based on an individual's constitution; however, the scientific basis for this theory is insufficient. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of body constitution, based on the Sasang type of Korean traditional medical classification system, on the bioavailability of soy isoflavones of Cheonggukjang, a quick-fermented soybean paste. SUBJECTS/METHODS: A pilot study was conducted on 48 healthy Korean men to evaluate the bioavailability of isoflavone after ingestion of food based on constitution types classified by the Sasang typology. The participants were classified into the Taeeumin (TE; n = 15), Soyangin (SY; n = 15), and Soeumin (SE; n = 18) groups. Each participant ingested 50 g of Cheonggukjang per 60 kg body weight. Thereafter, blood was collected, and the soy isoflavone metabolites were analyzed by ultra-performance liquid chromatography/quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Ntrikinetic analysis of individual isoflavone-derived metabolites was performed. RESULTS: Our nutrikinetic analysis identified 21 metabolites derived from isoflavones in the blood samples from 48 healthy Korean men (age range, 21-29 years). Significant differences were observed in the time to maximum concentration (T_max) and elimination half-life (t_1/2) for nine metabolites among the three groups. The T_max and t_1/2 of the nine metabolites were higher in the SE group than in the other groups. Moreover, the absorption rates, as determined by the area under the plasma-level curve (AUC) values of intact isoflavone, were 5.3 and 9.4 times higher in the TE group than in the SY and SE groups, respectively. Additionally, the highest AUC values for phase I and II metabolites were observed in the TE group. CONCLUSIONS: These findings indicate that isoflavone bioavailability, following Cheonggukjang insgestion, is high in individuals with the TE constitution, and relatively lower in those with the SE and SY constitutions.

This study, as a basic research to manage a Chinese Medicine Health Promotion Center by way of showing an example, is a before and after experiment research for simple group to verify a difference with cholesterol, health status and perception of health in order to confirm a effectiveness of diet and regimen according to the 4th status of physical constitution. Research object was chosen of 42 persons who operate a physical constitutional dietary regimen among them after selecting professors and clinical nurses (55 persons) majoring in the science of nursing who participated in Chinese Medicine-oriented Nurse Training Course from Aug. of 2001 to Feb. of 2002 all over the country. Diagnostic tools for physical constitution was used of the questionary that is currently consisted of physical constitution grouping test in Eastern & Western Diagnose Center of K Medical Center, and rating of health status was used of the tool that standardized CMI(Cornell Medical Index) to be available for Korean, and perception measurement for health status was used of a visual analogue scale for the health status that each one perceive personally, and physiological status was measured of cholesterol in blood. Analysis for the collected data was carried out by percentage, $X^2$ test, paired t-test according to research object by using SPSS, and the results of this study are as follows. 1) There was no difference with cholesterol before or after the experiment for objects. As a result of estimation about difference with health status by areas before or after the experiment, there are more improved result in eyes, ears, digestive organs, bones and sinews organs, frequency of a disorder, habit, adaptation status, angry, healthy status than before the experiment. As a whole, after the experiment the health was more improved than before the experiment. As the result to inspect a difference of health perception between before and after experiment, after the experiment the health perception level was improved than before, however there was no meaningful differences. 2) As the result to inspect a difference of cholesterol between before and after experiment according to object's physical constitution, in the case of So-yang-in(a person with the minimum male: according to the male and female principles(the sun and the moon)) among the 4th status of physical constitution there was only meaningful difference statistically, however, after the experiment their cholesterol's value was increased. As the result to inspect the difference of health status between before and after the experiment according to physical constitution, all of Ta-um-in(a person with maximum the female), So-yang-in(with the minimum male), So-um-in(with the minimum female) had a meaningful difference before and after the experiment, which means that in all case by physical constitutional groups, after the experiment their health status was more improved than before the experiment. As the result to inspect a difference of health perception between before and after according to physical constitutions, in the case of Tae-um-in and So-um-in, average score after the experiment was risen than before the experiment so that it means that the level of health perception was improved, however, there was no meaning statistically. According to the above results, if continuous diet and regimen by each physical constitutions could be implemented, it is certain that the health could be maintained and promoted. And, what we are healthy is for oneself to feel it subjectively. However, I think that cholesterol score in blood that we can view objectively could be changed distinctly if we can implement a strict diet and regimen. Accordingly, it is necessary for a method and period of experiment to be more strict and longer. According to the above results, I would like to suggest as follows. 1) In order to understand health status by Korean's physical constitutions and to generalize it, these research will be repeated against much more objects that could be selected by proper grouping method to consider a representative. 2) It is necessary for a research to inspect health status by physical constitution by developing a health status measurement tool that has higher confidence and propriety based on physical constitutional theory.

본 연구는 사상의학의 객관화 및 그 임상활동에 관한 유용한 자료를 제공함을 목적으로, 사상체질진단법에 의해서 분류된 태음인, 소양인, 소음인 그룹에 대하여 현재 유전적 분석 연구에 많이 사용되는 Amp-FLP법을 이용하여 VNTR인 MCT118(D1S80)과 STR중 3종의 locus (THO1, vWA, CSF1PO)를 대상으로 alleledistribution을 조사 작성하였다. 그리고 이러한 결과들은 Chi-square test를 통하여 통계학적인 유의성이 검토되었다. MCT118과 THO1은 각 체질별 집단의 특이성을 대변할 만한 유의적인 요소가 없는 것으로 나타났으나, vWA의 경우는 각 체질집단 중 소양인(0.002056)과 소음인($2.41{\times}10^{-10}$) 집단이 유의수준인 0.05보다 현저히 낮은 p-value를 나타내었다. 또한, CSFIPO에서도 소음인 집단이 $4.65{\times}10^{-17}$의 매우 낮은 p-value를 나타내었다. 따라서, 유의성 있는 차이를 보여준 vWA와 CSF1PO의 경우, 충분한 크기의 표본을 가지고 유전자 분석을 실시하여 위와 통일한 결과를 얻는다면 체질간 유전적 차이를 보여주는 지표로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
