  • 목적 : 대표적인 motor neuron disease(MND)이면서 가장 치명적인 신경퇴행성 질환인 ALS의 발생 양상과 한방치료효과에 대하여 연구하였다. 방법: 상지대학교 부속 한방병원에 래원한 ALS 환자들의 성별, 연령, 발병일, 발병양상, 래원 당시의 병태양상 등을 분석하였고, 이 중 3개월 이상 입원치료를 통하여 치료과정 평가가 가능하였던 18명의 환자들의 치료 전과 치료 후의 변화양상을 평가하였다. 결과 : 외국의 보고에 비하여 여성 환자가 많았고 발병 연령도 유의하게 낮았으며 상지에서 최초의 증상이 발현되는 비율이 상대적으로 높았다. Bulbar From의 비율도 높았고, 대부분의 환자가 여성인 것도 특이하였다. 환자들이 생각하는 질병의 발생원인 중 약 80%가 stress나 정신적 충격 등을 지적하여 정신적 불안상태가 유관함을 추정할 수 있었다. 한방치료가 ALS를 호전시키지는 못하였으나 진행을 억제하였고, 국소적인 주소증을 완화시키며 심리적 안정 상태를 유지하는데 도움이 된다고 평가되었다.

  • Wei symptom(?證) is symptom that reveals muscle relaxation without contraction and muscle relaxation occurs in the lower or upper limb, in severe case, leads to death. This is the clinical report about the Wei symptom(?證)-patient doubt as Transverse Myelitis and Conversion Disorder. The patient was treated by acupuncture, moxibustion, herb medication(十全大補湯), electriccal stimulation theraphy, Bee Venom acupuncture, and had significant improvement in Wei symptom(?證). these results suggest the surface temperature differ remarkably from before being treated. The temperature is measured by using Digital Infrared Thermal Imaging(DITI). The results suggest that oriental medicare is an effective treatment for Wei symptom. We expected that therapeutic value of treatment of both leg Paralysis in the oriental medicine will be higher if more clinical studies and researches are accomplished.

  • In order to investigate the effects of api-toxin therapy on depression of immune response, mice were exposed to cold stress $(-20^{\circ}C)$) in 30 minutes twice a day and api-toxin(Bee Venom from Korea and U.S.A) therapy was treated to the Kihae $(CV_6)$ locus of human body every two days with 4 sessions of treatment for 8 days. The mice were sensitized i.v. with $5{\times}10^8$ sheep red blood cells (SRBC) on the 4th day and challenged i.d. with $2{\times}10^9$ SRBC 4 days later. Immune Response for delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH), lympocyte transformation(LTT), hemolysin titer(HL), plaque forming cells (PFC) were measured.
