  • Although the physical therapy of both East and West has been based on an identical philosophy, they have had their own therapy with difference in its form and pattern. In general, cupping is used to diagnose and treat viscera by means of acupuncture point, and myofascial release is also used for both diagnosis and orthopedic treatment on the basis of trigger point and myofascial however, when they have a lot of identical facts such as using both mental and physical aspects of human beings for treatment, keeping nervous action balanced, and recovering depressed nervous functions and relieving the pain. In addition. their identical fact includes that they tend to treat patients by using symptoms and reaction shown in their skin, and that both East and West try to consider myofascia as an integrated totality and as a unified body of organic functions with correlations. Among the principles of myofascial release, recently, it has been very identical that stimulus given to the skin results in synapse to sympathetic nerve through dosal horn cell has an effect on viscera, and that cupping is sued for diagnosis and treatment of viscera. It is required, therefore, to continue to carry out studying on this field.

  • Cancer is one of the most serious health problem in modern society, and there are many studies to treat this disease. We have performed the study about analyzing papers related with anti-cancerous herbs that is used in clinical treatment recently. We found 257 papers in 'Pub med', the internet site, using the key words 'cancer' and the scientific name of anti-cancerous herbs. We also have compared the herbs' efficacy in oriental medicine with the experimental results in those papers, and thought the practical uses in clinical treatments. However, research studies that reported data on anti-cancerous herbs were wholly lacking. It is recommended that further studies be performed from the point of view of oriental medicine.

  • Objective: To investigate a clinical effect of Taichichuan training focussing on improvement of quality of life in cancer patients. Methods: The subject of study consisted of 10 cancer patients at the East-West Cancer Center of Dunsan Oriental hospital. The survey method of this study is Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General (FACT-G) korean version. Patients performed Taichichuan twice a week and filled out FACT-G questionnaire before and after training. Results: Although total FACT-G score decreased 0.7 point after training, emotional well-being score increased 1.0 point after training. Male improved FACT-G score better than female. Over 50 age improved FACT-G score better than under 50 age. Over stage Ⅲ improved FACT-G score better than Under Stage II. Patients who were treated integrative treatment improved FACT-G score better than patients who were only treated conventional treatment. But all results were not significant statistically. Conclusions: Emotional well-being tends to improve after training, but this study cannot proved Taichichuan training improve quality of life in cancer patients. Well designed advanced study will be needed to prove its benefits.

  • The study was aimed to investigate the correlation between tidal effects and fog occurrence in Incheon and Mokpo, which are located in the middle and southern coasts of the West Sea of Korea, respectively. The investigation used meteorological data obtained from the automated synoptic observing systems and automatic weather stations and ocean data from tide stations from 2010 to 2019. Fog occurrence frequency was highest at high tide (Incheon, 41%; Mokpo, 45%). During fog event days at high tide, the dew-point depression was low (Incheon, 0.5℃; Mokpo, 0.4℃) and the relative humidity was high (Incheon, 97%; Mokpo, 98%). The wind speed was 2.4 m/s in Incheon and 2.0 m/s in Mokpo, and the main wind directions were west-southwesterly from Incheon and southwesterly from Mokpo. In the fog case study, tidal flats were covered with water before and after the fog started. During the fog period, both stations experienced negative air-sea temperature differences, low dew-point depression, and high relative humidity were maintained, with weak winds forming from the tidal flats to the shore.

  • Objective: To provide reliable prediction models based on dentoskeletal and soft tissue variables for customizing maxillary incisor positions and to optimize digitalized orthodontic treatment planning. Methods: This study included 244 Chinese women (age, 18-40 years old) with esthetic profiles after orthodontic treatment with fixed appliances (133 in group I: 1° ≤ The angle between the nasion [N]-A point [A] plane and the N-B point [B] plane [ANB] ≤ 4°; 111 in group II: 4° < ANB ≤ 7°). Dental, skeletal, and soft tissue measurements were performed on lateral cephalograms of the participants. Correlation and multiple linear regression analyses were used to determine the influence of dentoskeletal and soft tissue variables on maxillary incisor position. Results: The ideal anteroposterior position of the maxillary incisor varied between sagittal skeletal patterns. The position of the maxillary incisor correlated with the sagittal discrepancy between the maxilla and the mandible (ANB), protrusion of the midface, nasal tip projection, development of the chin, and inclination of both the maxillary and mandibular incisors. Distance from the maxillary central incisor to nasion-pogonion plane predicted using multiple linear regression analysis was accurate and could be a practical measurement in orthodontic treatment planning. Conclusions: Instead of using an average value or norm, orthodontists should customize a patient's ideal maxillary incisor position using dentoskeletal and soft tissue evaluations.

  • This paper investigates the relationship between compactness and pseudo-compactness in subsets of C(X) where X is locally compact and first countable. Two primary theorems are proven. First, equicontinuity at a point is proven to be equivalent to the existence of a certain open cover of a pseudo-compact subset of C(X). The second theorem proves the equivalence of compactness and pseudo-compctness for closed subsets F of C(X).

  • Purpose: This study was designed to assess the degree of Yangsaeng (oriental health care regimen) and happiness of nurses who work in small and medium-sized of hospitals and to identify correlations of between variables in Korea. Methods: Participants were 131 nurses in hospitals in Seoul and Gyeonggido. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation coefficients, t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe's test, multiple regression and Cronbach's ${\alpha}$. Results: Mean scores were 2.99 (5 point scale) for Yangsaeng and 4.64 (7 point scale) for happiness. Yangseang positively correlated with happiness (r=.463, p<.001). Job satisfaction was a significantly correlated with Yangsaeng and happiness. Yangsaeng, job satisfaction and age explained 28.0% of happiness. Conclusion: We found Yangsaeng could improve happiness. Therefore, Yangsaeng could be recommended as a way of promoting health and happiness.

  • In this paper, we introduce new random iterative sequences with errors approximating a unique random common fixed point for three random set-valued strongly pseudo-contractive mappings and show the convergence of the random iterative sequences with errors by using an approximation method in real uniformly smooth separable Banach spaces. As applications, we study the existence of random solutions for some kind of random nonlinear operator equations group in separable Hilbert spaces.

  • In this paper, we introduce the concept of a system of asymptotically quasinonexpansive type mappings. Furthermore, we define a $k$-step iterative sequence approximating common fixed point for a system of asymptotically quasi-nonexpansive type mappings and study its stability in real Banach spaces.

  • 황해도 굿에서 사냥거리와 타살거리, 군웅거리는 사냥으로 제물을 마련하여 동물이 희생되어 신령에게 바치기까지의 과정을 의례적으로 표현하고 있다. 이러한 황해도 굿의 특징인 모의사냥과 동물희생의 의례는 일본의 시바마츠리에서도 행해지고 있다. 이 논문은 황해도 굿과 시바마츠리를 비교민속학적 관점에서 구조적으로 비교해보았다. 황해도 굿은 기존의 연구 성과에서 소찬으로 모셔지는 신령과 육찬으로 모셔지는 신령으로 구분되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이러한 신령에 대한 구분은 농경문화와 수렵문화를 각기 배경을 달리하는 신관(神觀)에서 비롯되었음을 알 수 있다. 황해도 굿은 여러 생산기반을 달리하는 무속을 수용하여 형성되었다. 따라서 굿의 목적에 따라 거리는 재편성하여 진행된다. 사냥거리는 제물이 산에서 마련하였음을 극적으로 표현하며, 생명력있는 동물이 타살됨으로서 군웅신을 환유로 나타내며 제물이 제공된다. 따라서 동물희생의례는 제물의 액을 풀어주고 신령으로부터 의지를 얻어내는 양의적인 의례이다. 일본의 시바마츠리가 행해지는 지역은 수렵과 밭농사를 겸하는 산간의 반농반렵(半農半獵)의 지역으로 농경의례와 수렵의례가 복합적으로 나타나있다. 정월에 행하는 시바마츠리는 산에서의 농사와 수렵의 시작으로 풍요를 기원하는 의미도 있다. 따라서 화전농경을 상징적으로 나타내는 동화제(洞火祭)와 모의적인 사냥과 동물희생의 의례가 복합적으로 구성되어 있다. 이러한 의례는 동남아시아의 산간지역의 밭농사민이 정초에 행하는 의례적 수렵관행과 일치한다. 황해도굿과 일본 시바마츠리는 표면적으로 모의사냥과 동물희생이 의례적으로 이루어지는 공통점이 있으나 구조적으로는 달리하고 있다. 즉 이러한 동물희생의례는 문화적 배경을 달리하며 각기 의례가 형성되었음을 알 수 있다.
