In this article, we consider properties of transcendental meromorphic solutions of the complex differential-difference equation $$P_n(z)f^{(n)}(2+{\eta}_n)+{\cdots}+P_1(z)f^{\prime}(z+{\eta}_1)+P_0(z)f(z+{\eta}_0)=0$$, and its non-homogeneous equation. Our results extend earlier results by Liu et al. [9].

Objectives: The aim of the study was to investigate the relationship between oriental obesity pattern, life habitual factors(eating attitude, physical activity) and psychological factors(depression, stress, self-esteem) in korean obese and overweight women. Methods: This study was performed in obese and overweight(BMI ${\geq}$ 23 kg/$m^2$) women in Korea (n=56). Simple anthropometry including weight, BMI, waist circumference, BIA(bioelectrical impedance analysis) were done. To assess psychological factors, the Rosenberg self-esteem scale (SES) questionnaire, Beck depression inventory (BDI) questionnaire and stress response inventory (SRI) questionnaire were administered. Regarding diet, Korean eating attitude test(KEAT-26) was done. International physical activity questionnaire(IPAQ) was administered for exercise and physical activity intensity and quantities. All values were verified using correlation analysis. Results: 1. The subjects had stagnation of the liver qi>food accumulation>yang deficiency>blood stasis>spleen vacuity in the order. 2. Stagnation of the liver qi score had significant relationships with self-esteem(r=-0.520, p<0.05) and depression(r=0.688, p<0.01) in stagnation of the liver qi group. There was a relationship between food accumulation score and eating attitude(r=0.784, p<0.01) in food accumulation group. 3. Lean mass had a significant relationship with self-esteem(r=0.434, p<0.05) fat mass had a significant relationship with stress (r=0.633, p<0.01) and in stagnation of the liver qi group. 4. Physical activity had significant relationships with lean mass(r=0.628, p<0.01) and with fat mass(r=-0.478, p<0.05) in group. Conclusions: This study maintained that psychological factors play major roles in obesity with symptoms of stagnation of the liver qi and life habit(dietary factors and physical activity) in food accumulation.

According to the principle of ascending water and descending fire, water has the property of wetting downward, which is the opposite of fire, which has the property of blazing upward. Thus, they work differently according to their innate properties. Nature and the human body maintain harmony through the interaction of ascending water and descending fire. When applied to the human body, the heart and kidney are the center of this principle. In other words, the heart above is the fire and the kidney downward is water. When the heart-fire harmonizes downward, the kidney becomes warm, enabling genuine vital functions to be active. When the kidney yin moves upward, the heart receives the nourishing yin to harmonize nutrients and blood. Thereby, physiological functions become normal throughout the blood meridians. However, in the ascending kidneywater and descending heart-yang of the heart and the kidney, the liver and lung are the major functional organs. In other words, the liver through the dispersing and raising yang functions moves water, which is the vital essence of the kidney, upward. And the lung, through the astriction?clearing of the lung and descending Qi?dispersing functions, moves the heart-fire downward. These functions are deeply related with changing seasons; thus, these functions can be explained with the ascending kidney-water and descending heart-yang of the five viscera.

Methods: It was studied 47 kinds of Oriental Medical literature for polyhidrosis of hands and feet Results: Polyhidrosis of hands and feet due to lowered superficial resistance brought on by deficiency of qi. Main pathogenesis(病因病機) is the heat in the middle energizer(中焦熱) such as heat in the stomach(胃熱) and the spleen and stomach heat stagnation(脾胃積熱), deficient in Yin and Yang, qi and blood(陰陽氣血), and retention of undigested food(食積) due to improper diet(飮食不能). Treating method(治法) is eliminating dampness and regulating the stomach(淸熱燥瀑和中), invigorating, replenishing spleen qi(補益脾氣), and nourishing the stomach Yin(滋養胃陰). Treating prescription(治方) is presented as Palmultang with Additional Ingredients Rhi.zoma Pinelliae, Pona for principle drug Rhi.zorm Typfwnii Radix Aconiti for adjuvant and messenger drug(八物湯加半夏 茯笭君 白附子 川烏爲在使), Daeshihotang(大柴胡湯), Cheongbisan(淸脾散), Moryeosan(牡蠣散) etc. The external treatments(外用法) are described as ways of washing hand and foot after steaming with boiled Decoction(牡蠣散) of AJurnen(白礬); Radix Puerariae(乾葛), Radix Astragali(黃?); Radix Puerariae(乾葛), Herba Schiwnepetae(荊芥); Radix Saposhnikoviae (防風), 白礬(AIumen).

Objectives : I hope this prescription configuration analysis among Liuhejian's and Lidongyuan's books and "Hejijufang" would explain the differences among Liuhejian's and Lidongyuan's theories against Hejijufang. Methods : I have searched for frequently used herbs combinations in the books and compared each features with others. And then I'd like to find out similar prescription by comparing composition ratio of configuring herbs. Conclusions : (1) In the composition ratio of configuring each of herbs Liuhejian's composition ratio of configuring herbs is higher than "Hejijufang" and Lidongyuan's prescriptions. (2) Lidongyuan's tendencies are about 'stimulate qi', 'removal of fever', 'removal of damp' and 'supplement of yin'. Liuhejian's tendencies are about 'removal of fever' and 'removal of wind'. Tendencies of "Hejijufan" are about 'heat up inside' and 'supplement of blood'. As I compared Lidongyuan's prescriptions with Liuhejian's, Lidongyuan's tendencies are about 'raising yang', 'supplement of qi', 'stimulation qi' and 'promotion of digestion'. Liuhejian's tendencies are about 'removal of fever' and 'removal of wind'. (3) I could prove that Liuhejian and Lidongyuan had created new theories against tendency of Hejijufang.
