1. Objectives In the western Medicine, UTI generally bring on fever, and treated by antibotics. In the traditional way of korean Medicine, our predecessors used the herb for the febrile disease that has the property of coldness. However, Lee Je-ma tried to make the Yang ascend with the herb, considering thar the febrile illness in Soeumin is made by the Exterior Heat not ascending. In the aspect of the Sasang Consititutional Medicine(SCM), Hwanggigyeji-tang(황지계지탕(黃芷桂技場)) & Palmoolgunja-tang (팔물군자탕(八物君子湯)) belongs to the kind of the warm medication. This study is reported to evaluate rhe effected of Hwanggigyeji-tang(황지계지탕(黃芷桂技場)), Palmulgoonja tang(팔물군자탕(八物君子湯)) to the febrile patient. 2. methods To heal the febrile patient who was diagnosed as UTI & Soeumin exterior disease, we used soeumin Hwanggigyeji-tang(황지계지탕(黃芷桂技場)), Palmulgoonja tang(팔물군자탕(八物君子湯)). 3. Results This parient's main symptoms are fever, sweating impotently feeling, anorexia. So we treated the patient with Hwanggigyeji-tang(황지계지탕(黃芷桂技場)), (팔물군자탕(八物君子湯)) in ${\ulcorner}$Dongyi Suse Bowon(동의수세보원(東醫壽世保元))${\lrcorner}$ and improved the patient?s symptoms. 4. Conclusions We suggest that Soeumin Hwanggigyeji-tang(황지계지탕(黃芷桂技場)), (팔물군자탕(八物君子湯)) are effective significantly to the patient with febrile illness, bur then we consider that the studies on the case like this are more needed to convince that Hwanggigyeji-tang(황지계지탕(黃芷桂技場)), (팔물군자탕(八物君子湯))are very much effective.

Objectives The purpose of this study is to understand the formation of Jogakdaehwang-tang(JD-T)'s patholoy and the compositional change of it in Sasang Constitutional Medicine(SCM). Methods The pathologic condition in which JD-T was used and the change of its composition was studied in SCM Results and Conclusions 1. Jogak and Daehwang in "Dongmuyoogo Haedong" were presented with Ungdam because of the common purpose flowing the energy of lung. Therapeutic method for exogenous Ungibyeong in "Dongyisusebowon sangchobongwon" was subdivided into Hangwul's treated by Ungdam, and the heat pattern featuring contagious cold and constipation, treated by Jogakhwanggeumdaehwang-tang(JHD-T). 2. JD-T in "Dongyisusebowon Gabogubon" was used for Yangdok and Onbyeong which are exogenous disease causing by heat. The composition of JD-T has been completed as it included Mahwang, Gilgyeong, and Seungma derived from prescriptions relevant with Yangdok. 3. JD-T in "Dongyisusebowon Sinchukbon(Sinchukbon)" was included in pathology of Ganyeol, and it substituted Galgeunhaegi-tang(GH-T) for Onbyeong, not for Yangdok, so Galgeun and Seungma became the main drug in JD-T. Galgeunseung-gitang(GS-T) was created for treating heat pattern owing to Daehwang, its main drug, and moreover Jogak's effect is too strong. Therefore, Mahwang, Hwanggeum and Gilgyeong was excluded from the composition of JD-T. 4. The origins of JD-T could be Yiseonggugo-hwan, Daesiho-tang, Jowiseungchung-tang, Heukno-hwan, and GH-T. The change of JD-T went for them throughout JHD-T to JD-T. JD-T in "Sinchukbon" consists of Galgeun and Daehwang which directly gets rid of severe heat from small intestine, and Jogak and Seungma which help to eliminate mild heat existing from small intestine throughout nose to flesh.

Objectives The purpose of this case study was to report improvement of palpitation, epistaxis, nausea, and anorexia after treatment with Dojeokgangki-tang gamibang in a middle-aged woman who has been taking Panax Ginseng continually. Methods Upon beginning her Dojeokgangki-tang gamibang regimen the patient was asked to self-evaluate the degree of discomfort in her symptoms using a using a number scale from 0 (no symptoms) to 10 (most severe). Evaluation of palpitation and chest discomfort was made a high priority. Results The palpitation the patient experienced, and self-evaluated as an "8" on the number scale at the time of her admission to the hospital, had disappeared (become "0") by the fourth day of hospitalization. The numerous symptoms which accompanied her palpitations (chest discomfort, nausea, anorexia, general weakness, weight loss, and depression) also improved accordingly. Conclusions Health functional food can pose serious health risks such as sudden bleeding and palpitations in individuals with pre-existing health problems. One must exercise extreme caution in deciding to take such supplements. As seen in the case of the middle-aged woman, the quality of life of patients who had experienced adverse reactions to such supplements can be treated through the administration of Dojeokgangki-tang gamibang.

1. Objectives Sasang Contitutional Medicine, a part of the traditional Korean medical lore, treats illness through a constitutional typing system that categorizespeople into four constitutional types. A few of the important criteria for differentiating the constitutional types are external appearances, inner state of mind, and pathological patterns. We had been developing a 3D Automatic Face Recognition Apparatus (3D-AFRA) in order to evaluate the external appearances with more objectivity. This apparatus provides a 3D image and numerical data on facial configuration, and this study aims to evaluate the mechanical accuracy of the 3D-AFRA hardware. 2. Methods Several objects of different shapes (cube, cylinder, cone, pyramid) were each scanned 10 times using the 3D Automatic Face Recognition Apparatus (3D-AFRA). The results were then compared and analyzed with data retrieved through a laser scanner known for its high accuracy. The error rates were analyzed for each grid point of facial contour scanned with Rapidform2006 (Rapidform2006 is a 3D scanning software that collects grid point data for contours of various products and products and product parts through 3D scanners and other 3D measuring devices; the grid point data thusly acquired is then used to reconstruct highly precise polygon and curvature models). 3. Results and Conclusions The average error rate was 0.22mm for the cube, 0.22mm for the cylinder, 0.125mm for the cone, and 0.172mm for the pyramid. The visual data comparing error rates for measurement figures retrieved with Rapidform2006 is shown in $Fig.3{\sim}Fig.6$. Blue tendency indicates smaller error rates, while red indicates greater error rates The protruding corners of the cube display red, indicating greater error rates. The cylinder shows greater error rates on the edges. The pyramid displays greater error rates on the base surface and around the vertex. The cone also shows greater error around the protruding edge.

1. Objectives The purpose of this research is to find out the Constitutional difference of Oxidative stress by Free oxygen radicals. 2. Methods We enrolled 55 patients who visited our hospital for medical examination from February 1, 2006 to May 31, 2006. This research investigated the Constitutional difference of Oxidative stress by Free oxygen radicals. 3. Results and Conclusions l) The Sasang Constitutional distribution of patients have oxidatative stress by Free oxygen radicals was Taeunmin 30%(8persons of total 27persons), Soeumin 56%(9persons of total 16persons), Soyangin 33%(4persons of total 12persons). The rate of patients have oxidatate stress was high in Soeumin. The Sasang Constitution had significance relation with oxidatative stress by Free oxygen radicals. 2) Triglyceride on the average of Taeumin patients have oxidatative stress by Free oxygen radicals is ststistical significantly higher than Triglyceride on the average of controlled normal persons in Taeumin(p-value=0.010) and Soyangin(p-value=0.015). Blood uric acid level on the average of patients have oxidatate stress by Free oxygen radicals is ststistical significantly lower than Blood uric acid level on the average of controlled normal persons in Taeumin(p-value=0.004) and Soyangin(p-value=0.037). This research has shown that there is a statistical significance between the Triglyceride level, Blood uric acid level and oxidatate stress by Free oxygen radicals.

1. Objectives : It is very important to classify people into Sasang constitution correctly in SCM. There have been many researches for this and several tools have been developed for diagnosis of Sasang constitution. In our study, we introduce a new web application for Integrated Sasang Constitutional Diagnosis (ISCD) ${\beta}$-version and algorithm on the base of face, body shape, voice and questionnaire. 2. Development : The web application of ISCD ${\beta}$-version was designed to be used easily for subject, staffs, and oriental medical doctors. For this purpose, we developed a web-application of Integrated Sasang Constitutional Diagnosis ${\beta}$-version using mysql database, tomcat web system, JSP, JAVA, and C++ languages. 3. Current State : The ISCD ${\beta}$-version could be accessed at http://210.218.196.115/SDT/login.jsp. The ISCD ${\beta}$-version consisted of 3 parts, for staffs, subject and oriental medical doctors. The system has been managed since February 2011. Currently 7 oriental hospitals have used the system and 1,439 subjects have been diagnosed by the system. 4. Conclusion and future work : Although many researchers have tried to develop a system or an algorithm for diagnosis of subject's constitution, we could have not used the system based on objective information of human body type, characters, symptoms. In this study, we describe a web application of objective diagnosis algorithm as ISCD ${\beta}$-version. This system may help an oriental medical doctors to make a decision of Sasang constitutional diagnosis easily and correctly.
