연구목적 : 스트레스가 밀접하게 관련된 원형탈모증 환자들이 경험하는 생활사건, 이와 관련된 스트레스의 양, 이에 대한 대처방식 및 환자의 성격유형을 알아보아 이들 요소가 질병의 발병과 악화에 어떤 영향을 주는 지를 비교 분석하여 스트레스와 원형탈모증과의 관련성을 평가하고자 하였다. 방법 : 연구 대상은 피부과 외래를 방문한 원형탈모증 환자 43명과 대조군으로 피부진균감염증 환자 36명으로 하였다. 평가 도구로는 생활사건척도(Scale of Life Events), 대처방식척도(Coping Style Checklist)와 Eysenck A-유형성격검사로 세 가지의 설문조사를 실시하였다. 자료 분석은 연령을 보정한 공분산분석(analysis of covariance)을 적용하였다. 결과 : 원형탈모증군에서 생활 사건 수와 생활 사건의 총합이 유의하게 높았으나 대처 방식과 Eysenck A-유형성격에서는 유의미한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 결론 : 생활 사건에 대한 스트레스 양은 원형탈모증 환자군이 대조군에 비해 유의미하게 높은 수치를 보였고 이는 스트레스가 원형탈모증 발생에 기여한다는 기존의 연구들과 일치하는 소견이다. 후 스트레스와 원형탈모증과 보다 직접적인 연관 관계를 명확히 규명하여 궁극적으로 임상적으로 응용이 되어야 한다고 생각한다.

The purpose of this study is to report the clinical application of Hominis Placenta Pharmacopunture for Alopecia areata. Patient was diagnosed as stress-induced Alopecia areata 1 years ago. To reduce symptom, we treated a patient 8 times using Hominis Placenta Pharmacopunture. Hominis Placenta was injected subcutaneously into the lesion of head scalp alopecia. According to photographs, the lesion had been replaced with new terminal hair and the size of the lesion had decreased. This case has shown that stress-induced Alopecia areata patient could be treated by Hominis Placenta Pharmacopunture.

이 증례 보고는 치조성II급 1류 부정교합의 해결을 위한 통상적 교정치료 중 탈모를 보인 청소년기 환자에 대한 것이다. 22개월 간 지속된 교정치료의 결과는 성공적이었다. 그러나 치료 시작 8개월 후 환자는 완전탈모현상을 보였다. 환자에 대한 포괄적인 의학적 검사와 감별진단은 교정치료에 의하여 유발된 심리적 스트레스로 그 원인을 결론지었다. 다수 선학들의 보고에서 심리적 스트레스는 면역체계에 영향을 줌으로써 탈모를 유발할 수 있다고 지적하고 있다. 따라서 이 증례의 경우 면역체계에 대한 스트레스의 결과 두피 모낭 주위의 조직에 대한 자동면역질환과 유사한 상태가 초래됨으로써 탈모가 발생한 것으로 추정함이 타당할 것으로 생각된다. 환자의 탈모는 비타민 D의 경구 및 경피적 투여로 완전 치유되었다. 이러한 증례는 면역체계야 말로 치아주위조직의 개조를 위한 중추적 역할을 담당하며, 면역체계에 영향을 줄 수 있는 어떠한 상태도 교정치료시 탈모의 발생 등과 같은 예기치 않은 결과를 초래할 수 있음을 시사한다.

연구목적 : 장기적인 탈모증의 심리적 영향에 대해 알아보기 위해 탈모증을 겪는 여성 환자에서의 불안, 우울, 감정 표현불능증, 성격 특성에 대해서 알아보았으며, 더불어 유전적 생물학적 원인이 크게 작용하는 안드로겐성 탈모증과 정신적 스트레스의 병인론적 역할에 대한 논란이 있는 원형 탈모증간에 심리적 특성에서 차이가 있는지 알아보았다. 방법: 여성 탈모증 환자를 대상으로 최소 1년 이상 치료를 받고 있는 원형탈모증 환자군(52명)과 안드로겐성 탈모증 환자군(33명), 그리고 정상대조군(54명)에서 다면적 인성검사(MMPI), 벡 우울척도(BDI), 상태불안척도(STAI-S), 특성불안척도(STAI-T), 토론토 감정표현불능증척도(TAS-20K)를 시행하여 각 군간의 차이를 비교 분석하였다. 결과: MMPI 결과는 F척도, Hs척도, D척도, Pd척도, Pa척도, Sc척도, Si척도에서 탈모증 환자군이 정상대조군보다 통계적으로 유의하게 높았고, Hy척도, Pt척도는 안드로겐성 탈모증 환자군에서 가장 높았다. BDI 점수, 상태불안척도, 특성불안척도에서 정상대조군에 비해 원형 탈모증과 안드로겐성 탈모증에서 점수가 높았으며, 특히 BDI 점수에서는 심한 우울증(23점 기준)에 해당하는 경우가 원형 탈모증 환자에서 94.2%(49명), 안드로겐 탈모증 환자의 97.0% (32명)로 나타났다. TAS-20K의 경우 총점에서는 환자군이 정상 대조군에 비해 유의하게 높았으며, Factor 3에서 안드로겐성 탈모증이 타 군에 비해 유의하게 높은 점수를 보였다. 또한 STAI-S 및 STAI-T에서도 환자군이 정상대조군에 비해 유의하게 높은 점수를 보였다. 결론: 여성 만성 탈모증 환자에서 우울감이 두드러지고 불안 수준이 높으며 감정표현불능증의 정도가 더 심한 것으로 나타났다. 특히 이러한 결과는 탈모의 병인론에 관련된 논란에도 불구하고, 두 종류의 탈모증에서 거의 모든 환자가 가지는 우울감에 대해서 적극적인 정신과적 개입이 필요하며, 환자의 성격적 측면과 심리적 대처기 전을 고려해야 함을 의미한다.

Alopecia areata (AA) is an autoimmune-related disorder characterized by non-scarring hair loss in children. We report the case of a child who had AA after the fifth dose of rabies vaccine and summarized various potential mechanisms of vaccination induced AA. This case indicates that rabies vaccine might be a predisposition of AA by causing immune dysregulation.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to compare hair and alopecia of Korean Medicine with those of western medicine. Methods : We studied relationships between hair and essense(精), qi(氣), blood(血), five vicera(五臟) and meridians(經絡) through literature review about hair and alopecia. We compared Korean medicine with western medicine on physiology of hair and treatment of alopecia based on the study. Results & Conclusion : 1. Congenital essense(先天之精) is related with genetic factor and acquired essence(後天之精) is connected with nutritional factor. Defending function of Defense qi(衛氣) is related with immune reaction and qi stagnation(氣鬱) is associated with stress reaction. Atrophy of vascular tissues observed in alopecia scalp means deep relationship between blood(血) and alopecia, further deficiency of blood can cause telogen effluvium. 2. Kidney qi(腎氣) is related with inhibiting combination of Androgen receptor and Dihydrotestosterone(DHT) or activating hair growth factior. Pi(脾) is connected with alopecia seborrheica caused by damp-heat(濕熱) and alopecia areata caused by excessive prudence(思慮過度). Heart(心) is associated with atrophy in vascular tissue of scalp and liver(肝) is connected with metabolism. 3. Armpit hair and pubic hair as secondary sex characteristics are realated with Yangming Meridian(陽明經) and beard and hair at crown part where Type II $5{\alpha}$-reductase is activated much are associated with Taiyang Meridian(太陽經). 4. Juglandis Semen pharmacopuncture and Ganoderma lucidum pharmacopucture have better effects on inhibit $5{\alpha}$-reductase than Finasteride. Minoxidil and PRP are similar with promoting blood flow and removing stasis(活血祛瘀). Seven-star needling(七星針) is similar with microneedling. 5. Alopecia can be caused by due to lack of circulation Views we need solution to improve circulation coincide in opinion with Korean Medicine and Western medicine.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the alopecia experience in adults and to explain the process of their experiences. Methods: Using a grounded theory methodology, 18 interviews were performed with fourteen men and four women, 34~57 years of age, suffering from alopecia. Data were analyzed using the constant comparative analysis method. Results: The core category emerged as "inescapable fetters". adults with alopecia engaged in three stages: embarrassment, seeking solution, and acceptance phase. Causal conditions were a vicious cycle of stress, biological factors and poor life style. Contextual conditions were recognition of irreversibleness, negative social awareness, and marriage. The central phenomenon of the adaptation process among the adults with alopecia was withdrawn life due to negative body image. Action/Interaction strategies included rely on medical treatment, efforts to take good care of hair, research for information treatment, efforts to cover up hair loss, and mind control. Intervening conditions were time cost, economic cost, support of surrounding people. Consequences was burden of unfinished lifetime homework. Conclusion: When caring for these adults, it is important to identify needs, allow patients to express what they want at that moment and support them in maintaining a daily life.

Hair loss is a common status found among people of all ages. Since the role of hair is much more related to culture and individual identity, hair loss can have a great influence on well-being and quality of life. It is a disorder that is observed in only scalp patients with androgenetic alopecia (AGA) or alopecia areata caused by stress or immune response abnormalities. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved therapeutic medicines such as finasteride, and minoxidil improve hair loss temporarily, but when they stop, they have a limitation in that hair loss occurs again. As an alternative strategy for improving hair growth, many studies reported that there is a relationship between the expression levels of prostaglandins (PGs) and hair growth. Four major PGs such as prostaglandin D2 (PGD2₂), prostaglandin I2 (PGI₂), prostaglandin E2 (PGE₂), and prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF_2α) are spatiotemporally expressed in hair follicles and are implicated in hair loss. This review investigated the physiological roles and pharmacological interventions of the PGs in the pathogenesis of hair loss and provided these novel insights for clinical therapeutics for patients suffering from alopecia.
