Objective This is a previous study for including traditional Korean medical terms into the UMLS(The Unified Medical Language System) and achieving the interoperability between various medical systems. Method First, the traditional medical terms were divided into 4 categories : basic theory, acupuncture, herb and formulae. And then, searching these terms through metathesaurus in UMLSKS(UMLS Knowledge Source Server), terminology information was investigated and analyzed. Results In the case of TM title, traditional Korean medicine was categorized as different semantic type from Traditional medicine, Traditional Chinese medicine and Kampo medicine. Acupuncture points were described only as abbreviation and herbs were conceptualized inconsistently, as some belonged to scientific name and some belonged to Chinese pronunciation. Formulaes are described as Chinese, Japanese and Korean pronunciations. Conclusions More research is needed on diagnosis/disease terms and semantic types for the unique concepts in traditional Korean medicine in order to including the international standard.

Glehnia littoralis (Umbelliferae), a perennial herb distributed along the coastline of northern Pacific countries, is the medicinal plant used traditionally for treatment of various diseases. This review focuses on the various pharmacological activities of Glehnia littoralis for understanding about its traditional medicinal applications, medicinal uses in the modern society, and potentials for drug development Glehnia littoralis was reported to have anti-oxidant, anti-tumor, anti-amnesic, blood circulation-promoting, immunomodulatory, anti-microbial, and allelopathic activities. However, their mechanisms remain to be clarified. Because Glehnia littoralis has been prescribed in traditional Oriental medicine as a tonic herb, Glehnia littoralis can be better than other chemical drugs and medicines which exert the equal pharmacological activities. Although the activities of Glehnia littoralis are not specifically high-potent with unique mode of action, it may turn out that it can be beneficial to exert multiple pharmacological activities. In view of low toxicity, relative cheapness, presence in the diet, and occurrence in various herbal remedies of Glehnia littoralis, it needs to be prudent to evaluate its properties and applications further.

The formulations incorporate single herb or more than two herbs (poly-herbal formulations). Medicinal herb contains multitude of chemical compounds like alkaloids, glycosides, saponins, resins, oleoresins, sesquiterpene, lactones and oils (essential and fixed). Today there is growing interest in chemical composition of plant based medicines. Several bioactive constituents have been isolated and studied for pharmacological activity. R. cordifolia is an important medicinal plant commonly used in the traditional and Ayurvedic system of medicine for treatment of different ailments.

Objectives : The aim of this study is to analyze the patent trend in Traditional Korean Tea. In this paper, we investigate the diversity of Korean Tea registered as patents focusing on the kinds of medicinal herbs used, processing methods, and types of tea. Methods : We collected patents data using KIPRIS, and WIPS database. We conducted Quantitative Analysis by year and main patentee, and Qualitative Analysis by patent's contents. Results : 313 patents are selected from 2001 to May 2017. The number of patents have been on the rise and reached 44 in 2014. Individuals have registered the most patents, followed by companies, Industry-University Cooperation Foundation, and local autonomous entities. Ginger, Omija and Cactus were used at high frequency among 109 tea containing one medicinal herb. Licorice and Jujube were frequently used among 204 tea containing more than two kinds of medicinal herbs. In classification of patent by efficacy, 'health promotion and function recovery' and 'treatment and prevention of diseases' are most frequently specified. 128 patents are presenting processing methods for medicinal herbs in the order of roasting, fermentation, and fumigation. Among 164 patents presenting tea types, liquid type accounts for more than half and there are 67 leached tea, and 32 powder tea. Conclusion : The analyses results showed that lots of new recipes, efficacy, processing methods and tea types are being studied and registered as patents. In order to help Traditional Korean Tea industry to develop, active patent registration and further study about up-to-date patent trend would be required.

Objective: Constipation is the most common adverse effect of opioid analgesic therapy in cancer patients. This can be associated with physical and emotional distress to cancer patients. The purpose of this study is to review the standard and alternative interventions of the management for opioid-induced constipation (OIC). Methods: The studies were searched from databases, including Pubmed, Google scholar, KISS, NDSL, and OASIS. The main search terms included such as constipation, opioid, opioid-induced constipation, cancer, management, herb, and acupuncture. Results: The prevention and usual care of constipation is a key tool for the management of OIC. Also, prophylactic laxatives starting concurrently with opiates helped to prevent developing constipation. Peripherally acting μ-opioid receptor antagonists (PAMORAs) significantly reduced OIC and well-tolerated. In addition, acupuncture, herb medicines, and interferential current or transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation to acupoints had effectiveness in reducing constipation. Conclusion: Preliminary data indicate that PAMORAs and Traditional Korean Medicine may be considered as the management of unresolved OIC. However, due to the limited articles, more systematic and rigorous clinical trials are needed.

본 연구에서 동의보감에 기록된 유암 치료에 사용되어온 5가지 한약재 처방전인 십육미류기음, 단자청피탕, 지패산 Ⅰ, 지패산 Ⅱ와 청간해울탕의 열수와 에탄올 추출물에 대한 총 페놀 함량의 비교 분석과 항산화능 및 항균활성능을 비교 조사하였다. 열수와 70% 에탄올 추출물의 수율은 각각 지패산 Ⅱ와 단자청피탕이 가장 높았으며, 총 페놀 함량은 다른 한약재에 비해 단자청피탕이 가장 높았다. 열수 추출물의 총 페놀 함량은 지패산 Ⅰ < 청간해울탕 < 지패산 Ⅱ < 십육미류기음 < 단자청피탕 순으로 높게 나타났다. 70% 에탄올 추출물의 총 페놀 함량은지패산 Ⅱ < 지패산 Ⅰ < 청간해울탕 < 십육미류기음 < 단자청피탕 순으로 풍부하였다. 그 중 단자청피탕과 십육미류기음의 환원력과 DPPH radical과 ABTS radical 소거능이 가장 뛰어났으며, 이들 시료의 총 페놀 함량과 그들의 항산화능과의 밀접한 상관도가 관찰되었다. 또한 Staphylococcus aureus 및 Escherichia coli에 대한 항균활성은 열수보다 70% 에탄올 추출물에서 효과가 높게 관찰되었다. 결론적으로 유암의 치료에 사용되었던 조사 대상 한약재 처방전은 항산화와 항균 활성은 그들의 총 페놀 함유량과 연관성이 높았으며, 본 연구의 결과는 각 처방전에 대한 구체적인 생리활성 비교를 위한 자료로서 활용될 것이다.
